Chapter Text
"It's done," Tommy said to himself as he finished the last of the coding on the computer. He rotated his neck a few times to get out the kinks. He was an old man now and he was tired. After years of being a Power Ranger, it had taken its toll on his body. His back was held together by tech that allowed him to walk but flared up every so often. He looked at the photos on the wall to see the pictures of his family. His son had become a Ranger with the SPD and now wore a version of his dragon shield as a way to honor him. He stood up slowly to prevent any pain in his back.
He had decided that the Master Morpher should be sent to another universe to help create a new team of rangers to be a force for good. He had set it so only someone truly worthy could be chosen as the next Leader of the Rangers. He had looked around the room to see it was like a slightly smaller Command Center from his youth, but a bit more modern and top of the line. He looked over everything once more before setting his Golden Morpher into the cradle he had created. Tommy had worked with several of the best minds to allow it access to all current generations of Rangers. He also programmed it with the ability to grant other worthy individuals be given a Morpher of the best possible match for them. The Power Rangers were a team and no Ranger could do everything by themselves. The other Morphers were being stored in the command center itself. When a chosen ranger was selected near the Master Morpher it would be teleported to that person. He moved to just outside the Command Center entrance.
"DECA, please initiate project Future Rangers," Tommy said to the room. The room came to life as the computer began to spin up and a progress bar appeared on the screen.
"Program has been initiated Dr. Oliver," a feminine voice replied to him "ETA to activation 300 Seconds." The time appeared on the screen.
Tommy smiled and crossed his arms as he looked at the screen. "Thank you DECA, I wish you the best of luck with the new Rangers." Tommy was a little disappointed that he was not going along with the Command Center to train them himself, but he wouldn't leave his family like that. He felt a gentle hand wrap around his arm. He turned to see his wife Kat giving him a sad smile.
"Sad that you aren't going?" Kat asked him with a teasing tone. She moved close to cuddle into his side.
Tommy chuckled "A little, but my time as a Ranger has come to an end and I wish to spend it with you and J.J." He bent his head down and kissed her brow. Kat had been through a lot with being a Ranger and Kat had retired her Morpher long before Tommy had. She had helped him through a lot of his internal struggles and was glad to be standing by his side after all these years. As the timer reached the last 30 seconds, Tommy reached up and pressed the button to close the door. There was a flash of light through the edges of the door and when Tommy reopened the door. It was now an empty room.
"Good Luck to the next person who gets the Master Morpher, your life will never be the same again." Tommy mused to himself. Kat shook her head and lead him away from the room. It was now time to plan out their travel plans for a very long overdue vacation.
The Command Center traveled through the dimensions and found one that was full of Heroes and Villains. A world in need of a team of Heroes that would be the light in the darkness. DECA set the destination for that Command Center. As she entered the Dimension she set to scan the planet for a worthy successor. After a long month of scanning this new Earth, a match was found in Japan. DECA activated the teleportation system and vanished to the planet's surface. She had found the match lived in the Musutafu area and there was a beach full of debris and garbage.
She landed the command center near a large pile of rock structures and generated its camouflage ability. The small base began to be covered in rocks that looked completely natural to the beach and sank into the ground to hide itself a bit better along with a perception field that would prevent anyone with a satellite to be able to detect the base. The only ways in were with a Morpher or to be teleported in by DECA as a security measure. She went to work and found the Match quickly since they were close to the Command Center. She accessed the viewing globe and saw the match looking dejected and walked away from a tall blonde man that looked like a skeleton. DECA spun up the computer and began the teleport sequence.
"I'm Sorry Kid, but without a quirk, you can't be a hero." All Might said to the young boy.
Izuku tuned out anything else that had been said to him. He was had a terrible day. First, his teacher had outed him to Kacchan and his class about him applying to UA, and still had the bruise from that encounter. Then Kacchan blew up his Hero Notebook and tossed it out the window. Before telling him to 'Go take a swan dive off the roof and hope for a quirk in the next life.' Izuku was horrified that the person he thought of for so long as his friend had told him to kill himself. He went out and salvage his notebook and knew he would probably have to re-enter everything into a new book, but that was better than losing everything. Then he was attacked by a slime villain and almost died if he had not been saved by All Might.
After waking up and seeing an autograph from his childhood Hero he grabbed his leg wanting to ask him a question. In the process, he saw his hero in his real form due to an injury from a supervillain years ago. Izuku asked if it was the Toxic Chain Saw, but All Might brushed it away. He then asked if he could be a hero without a Quirk and was completely crushed to hear his idol tell him he couldn't be a hero. Izuku muttered a thank you and walked down the stairwell away from it all and was quietly crying to himself only wanting to go home and crawl into his bed away from everyone. All his life he had been looked down on and was told to give up on his impossible dream.
His mother supported him after he started crying when he asked her after being diagnosed as quirkless by the doctor. His father had left to work overseas and hadn't been back since he was 4. His best friend had become his chief tormentor and the school allowed it since Bakugo had a "Heroic Quirk" and didn't want anything on his record to prevent him from getting into UA. He had put up with it for years. He hid the abuse from his mother, not wanting her to be upset with Aunt Mitsuki about how her son was a bully.
"I just want someone to take a chance and help me be a hero." Izuku had whispered to himself as he walked down the stairs. Before his foot had hit the landing at the bottom of the flight he was surrounded by a green light and felt like he was being pulled somewhere. After what felt like a few minutes he appeared in a room full of the screen and looked very high-tech. around him what looked like weapons and several hero suits with helmets that had different colors and motifs from dinosaurs, animals, even police. He was both nervous and excited to see where he had been brought to.
"Welcome to the Command Center, Izuku Midoriya." A female voice greeted him from behind him. Izuku jumped and had to suppress a scream as he looked around to see where the voice came from but saw no one around.
"W-Who are you and how do you know my name?" Izuku asked trying to calm himself still looking around trying to find the woman who spoke to him. He looked to see a screen had turned on with a woman on the screen. She looked roughly his mother's age with white hair and green eyes. Her skin was a pale white. She wore a simple black robe that contrast her skin. Her face was heart-shaped and she had a kind smile on her face.
"My name is DECA and I am the Artificial Intelligence that runs the Command Center for Power Ranger Operations. I know your name Izuku because I have scanned the planet for an individual with a heart of a hero and the drive to be a light for those in need." She pointed behind him and he looked to see a golden device sitting in a cradle with a golden coin in the center in the shape of a dragon foot. "You, Izuku have been selected by the Master Morpher to become the Leader of the Next Generation of Power Rangers."
Izuku felt his jaw drop. He was chosen to be a leader? This had to be a mistake. “What is a Power Ranger?” He asked looking at the suits he was sure there was a connection to the device that he now knew was the Master Morpher and the suits.
DECA disappeared from the screen and then it was filled with Heroes fighting monsters and saving the day from evil. He watched them do amazing feats of strength, speed, and skill in martial arts and weapons. He watched in awe as Zords were summoned and destroyed monsters that towered over cities. He wondered how Mt. Lady would fair against these things since some of the Zords were taller than her. He watched as the clip ended and had to ask "Are you sure I'm the right choice? I'm just a quirkless kid and there are many different Heroes around that could be better candidates them me." Izuku was still reeling from All Might telling him he couldn't be a hero.
DECA reappeared with that same kind smile on him "True, this world is full of Heroes, but there is more to being a Ranger than just having an ability. It is to have a heart full of compassion and drive to save others and I was able to detect that within you Izuku and as for being 'quirkless as you call it. Most of the Rangers you saw had no special abilities until they became a Ranger and they were some of the greatest heroes of their time." DECA pointed to the Master Morpher sitting in the cradle "Pick up the Morpher and if you are unworthy nothing will happen, but when it shows you ARE worthy as I have said, you will see many incredible things and go on amazing adventures.”
Izuku looked at it for a moment before walking to stand in front of it. He slowly reached out to touch it. This could be his chance to be the Hero he dreamed of. That ability to save those in need and be like those who came before him. This was a mantle he could take up and show the world that quirkless didn't mean useless. As his hand touched the Morpher, he felt power surge through his body and knowledge of how to use the Morpher correctly and how to switch Ranger forms.
He felt the knowledge fill his mind and he heard an ethereal voice say “Welcome to the Power Ranger Izuku.” Izuku felt better than he had in ages. He felt stronger and felt the power run through him. ‘I wonder if this is what it feels like to have a quirk.’ He thought to himself.
He turned around to converse more with DECA, but alarms filled the room and the white orb showed a street burning and heroes trying to battle a slime creature. Izuku recognized the creature as the one who attacked him earlier in the day. He froze 'Had the bottle fallen out of his pocket when I grabbed All Might's leg?' He turned to DECA "Can you teleport me to where this is happening?" He asked wanting to fix his mistake.
DECA smiled broadly "Of course, Izuku take the watch on the counter next to the cradle. It's a Ranger Communicator if you need to come here touch the red button and it will teleport you to the Command Center. Now I will send you there to show the world what kind of hero you are." Izuku moved quickly and grabbed the watch and placed it on his wrist. It was silver with green stripes on the band.
"I'm ready, I think," Izuku said a bit nervous about what he was about to do. He took a deep breath and felt himself be teleporting out of the Command Center.
As he left the Command Center DECA said more to herself "Time to shine Little Ranger and it will be a great honor to see how you grow."
Izuku landed behind the crowd as an explosion went off setting fire to the building. The Pro Heroes were keeping the debris from hitting the spectators. Backdraft was battling the blaze while Death Arms and Kami Wood were standing watching it happen. Mt Lady was blocked by not having enough space to be of any help. Izuku glanced to see Bakugo inside the slime villain. He felt cold remembering that feeling of drowning and could see that his face was full of rage, but his eyes were full of fear. Izuku flipped out the handle of the Morpher and moved past the crowd and the two Pro Heroes.
"Hey, Kid! Get back here it's Not Safe!" Death Arms Shouted
“Stop!” Kamui Wood yelled out
Izuku had tuned them out after years of analyzing Quirks there were multiple ways to have saved Bakugo and stopped the villain, but they were waiting for the 'perfect quirk' to arrive to save the day. "One chance let him go," Izuku said with a strong and even tone. He was terrified on the inside but knew he had to be brave enough to be a Hero.
The slime looked at him and laughed "Well if it isn't my first victim. Did you come back for more ha-ha." His voice was condescending and laughed the entire time. "I'll remove you and become famous enough to be feared by these so-called Heroes."
"Well, I tried Diplomacy." Izuku said “Its Morphing Time: Dragonzord!"
(Go Green Ranger OST)
A flash of green light filled the area causing both Heroes and Villains to look away. When the light faded where Izuku stood was an adult in green Spandex. His hands and feet were covered in white with green accents. His chest was covered with a gold shield that covered the shoulder and had a diamond in the center around each arm was a golden band. His waist had a white belt and his golden Morpher in the center of his waist on his right hip was an elegant dagger in a black sheath. His suit was completed with a green helmet with a black visor trimmed with silver. His mouth area was silver and cut slightly into the helmet. The top had a red diamond in the center and two black eyes on each side.
He walked steadily towards the villain with a hand resting on the dagger. The slime villain tried to send multiple blasts in his direction, but Izuku drew his dragon dagger and played a quick tune creating a green energy shield that deflected the blasts away from him to the side and away from the crowd.
Izuku got close and slashed at one of the slimes eyes causing it to yell in pain loosening up his grip on Bakugo. Izuku took his free hand and pulled him out like he was taking a book from a shelf. Izuku jumped back to the Pro Heroes "Here, make sure he's OK." Before jumping back into the fray. The slime was thrashing around trying to him, but Izuku was too fast. He made quick slashes taking out tentacles that came out to attack him. He connected a few solid kicks and punches that were like being hit by a truck causing the slime villain to cry out in pain. Izuku jumped back and played another tune different from the first and then place a hand at the base of the dagger and ran it along the blade causing it to glow green. "Time to end this." Izuku jumped and brought the dagger down "Green Dragon Slash!" as the blade made contact with the slime it exploded splatter him against several walls. Izuku stood up as he heard the slime groan unable to put himself back together.
The pros that were watching were dumbfounded as to what just happened. one minute the kid was challenging the villain. They were struggling with how he was in a green suit and deflecting the blasts as if they were nothing. The crowd was still in shock as well as to who this kid was. All Might watched the young boy he told couldn't be a Hero was now doing his job since he was out of time. 'I was wrong, this kid is a true hero.' He was clenching his fist at his hubris. 'Where did he get that suit? He told me he was quirkless. The crowd was silent for a moment before they started to cheer for the new hero. Izuku sheathed his dagger and walked towards the Pro Heroes. Mt Lady had joined the group of waiting heroes to talk to him.
"Power Down," Izuku said returning to his normal form as he continued to walk. "Hey Bakugo, are you doing ok?" Izuku asked as the Medics had him wearing a breathing mask and a blanket wrapped around his shoulders. Bakugo didn't answer him just seethed in rage in-between coughing fits. "Is he OK?" Izuku asked the Medics.
"He'll be fine, we're going to take him to get checked out since he is still coughing up slime and we want to make sure his lungs are clear."
Izuku nodded as he pulled out his phone and handed it to the Medic. "This is his mother's cell number, give her a call and he won't give any trouble about going to get checked out."
"DEKU YOU TRAITOR!" Bakugo screamed before going back into a coughing fit.
Izuku shook his head as the Medic called and talked to his mother before turning on the speakerphone placed her on speaker "KATSUKI BAKUGO! STOP BEING A SHIT AND GO TO THE HOSPITAL OR I WILL GROUND YOU FOR A YEAR!"
Bakugo grumbled an acknowledgment and was loaded into the back of the ambulance. He was still glaring daggers at Izuku right up until the doors were closed and they pulled away to take him to the hospital.
As the ambulance left the scene, he moved closer to the Pro's and held his wrists together out in front of him. "I surrender peacefully," Izuku stated in a calm voice. He was terrified of what his mother was going to say when she saw the news. He saw the crew filming the entire time and was sure they got his face when he power down. He had technically broken the law by fighting a villain without a license. And he didn't want to make this into a bigger incident than what it already was. Death Arms clicked on a pair of cuffs without a second thought and that is when the crowd turned ugly.
“Hey! He saved that kid!”
“Really? Arresting the real hero?"
"Come on! That kid is a hero!”
Izuku was stunned to see so many people trying to protest his arrest on his behalf. Death Arms and Kami Wood tried to calm the crowd, but they were being drowned out by the shouts. Mt. Lady moved closer to Izuku "If I take these off will you please come with me to answer a few questions?" She asked kindly. She was very curious about how he saved the kid and the green suit. "I'll walk you there myself."
Izuku nodded “Sure.”
Mt. Lady unlocked the cuffs and placed a hand on his shoulder. “I asked him to accompany me to the station to answer some questions. I’ll take him into my custody until this thing gets sorted out." She turned him towards the nearby police station and left the other two Pro Heroes to handle the crowd. There were cheers for Mt. Lady as she walked Izuku away. "What is your name kid?"
"Izuku Midoriya ma'am," Izuku answered honestly. "Thank you for escorting me without handcuffs." He said bowing his head in respect to her.
Mt. Lady brushed him off. "Hey, you saved the blonde kid, and even if you broke the law, you were cooperating and there was no need to cuff you in front of the crowd." She gave him a slight smile. "And it's Mt. Lady or call me Yu. I am way too young to be a ma'am." She shuddered at the thought of being considered that old. She looked at the green-haired boy asked "How old are you, kid?"
"14, I'll 15 in July Yu." Izuku replied trying to fidget." He hadn't had any friends since he was 4 and this was the longest conversation he had with an adult except for his mother. He was also shy when it came to the opposite gender and he was having to keep himself from starting stuttering.
"You are a kid indeed," She chuckled and ruffled his hair causing Izuku to blush from the gesture. "Well we're about there and then we have to call you parents." Mt. Lady said with a smile. She could see the police station in the distance and noticed a few offices were standing outside waiting for her. "I'll stay with you until they get here if that is ok with you.”
Izuku nodded and pulled out a notebook and flipped to her page "W-would it be ok if I got your autograph? I saw your debut this morning and wanted to try and get it later." Izuku mumbled diverting his eyes in embarrassment since he was being such a nerd for heroes at this moment.
Yu smiled brightly "Of Course kid," She looked at the page and it had an almost accurate drawing of her costume along with pros and cons. 'wow this kid is good with one outing analyzed me this well.' She took the pen and signed just below the hand-drawn portrait and was about to hand the pen back when she saw a small word written next to it. 'Sexy' Yu blushed lightly but quickly willed it away before giving Izuku a feral smile and tapping his shoulder. When he looked up he swallowed hard. "Sexy huh?" handing him back his notebook. Thus began the teasing he had to endure from his new friend as they walked into the station.
All Might had watched this kid become a hero in front of his very eyes. He watched as that device allowed the boy Izuku the ability to save the blonde boy and save the day by defeating the villain. He was angry at himself for letting his ego get the better of him. His master would have knocked into next week for what he had told that kid. When it was all over the kid changed back and surrendered peacefully to the Pros and watched as the crowd turned ugly as they called that boy a hero. He would have to change his way of thinking and as a thought reached his mind he took out this phone and called to schedule a flight out to see and old friends and his daughter. He had a new plan on who would be his successor. 'Thank you, my boy, for showing this old man that he had lost his way. Now I need to start fixing a lot of my mistakes.' He thought to himself as he waited for his friends to answer.

Chapter Text
Izuku sat in the interrogation room working on trying to fix his damaged notebook since he had All Might and now Mt. Lady’s signatures. It wasn’t too bad and he had to rewrite a few things here and there. He had been waiting for almost an hour when his mother rushed into the room and pulled him into a tight embrace as she cried. Izuku tried to calm her, but it took a bit for her to settle down. Yu had been sitting in the corner taking photos of the event and giggling at Izuku. While they had been waiting she had seen him a kid brother. He was kind, cautious, and easy for her to tease to get him flustered. She had been an only child and her parents lived on the other side of Japan. She had a few friends, but it was hard to keep in touch with their different schedules. She had learned a lot from his analysis of her Quirk and had made a note for work with Gunhead for some hand-to-hand experience.
Izuku finally got his mother to calm down and introduced her to Yu and Inko immediately hugged her for taking the cuffs off of her son and not treating him like a criminal.
Yu gave her an honest smile after the hug and all three of them chatted until the Detective walked into the room followed by 3 others. The first one to enter the room was the R-18 Heroine Midnight. She was still in her hero costume which looked like a dominatrix outfit with a white full bodysuit with a breast-less corset and knee-high boots. She wore a handcuff on each wrist and carried her traditional whip. Her long black hair was wild but well kept. She was tall and curvaceous with a beauty mark under her left eye. She wore a pair of red glasses as if it was a mask.
As soon as she entered the room Yu almost started to hiss like a cat. They had a rivalry for years and did not get along. Midnight looked over at Izuku and gave him a wink ‘Well~ Hello there cutie.” Midnight said in a flirty tone. Izuku blush a bright red, Inko frowned slightly, and Yu pulled him towards her.
"Back off my little brother hag," Yu growled out as she had taken a liking to Izuku and would protect him from the cougar that was known as Midnight.
This caused Midnight's eye to twitch and lean forward "I was just being friendly to the young man, slag.” Midnight shot back at Yu. Both women were glaring daggers at the other, but before it could escalate the second person stopped them before a fight broke out.
“Enough both you act your ages." The second man was a tired-looking, long hair, haired man. He looked a little ragged and wore dark clothing and had a large scarf that covered his shoulder. He wore a pair of goggles on top of his head. The man was a tall and lean gentleman in need of a good shave to get rid of the gruff on his face. He looked like he could blend into a crowd easier than most Pro Heroes. The man moved to a corner and looked Izuku up and down.
The last person to enter was a 3 foot in height portly shaped person in a business suit. He looked like a cross between a bear, a dog, and a mouse with a scar over his left eye. Izuku knew who he was immediate as Nezu the Principal of UA and could end his chances to get into the school before he even took the assessment test. The detective left the room and the room got a little tense. Izuku decided to break the tension by asking a question. "Am I going to be arrested, sir?" Izuku asked with a slight waver in his voice. His mother tensed at the question.
Nezu gave him a small smile "Am I a Mouse, Bear, or a Dog? I am Nezu the principal of UA and the Police have handed off this case to use since it was discovered that you have applied to UA under the Hero Course correct?” Izuku would have started shaking if not for the fact his mother was holding one of his hands and Yu was holding the other. He nodded his head not trusting his voice to speak. “Well, we reviewed your application and it states that you are quirkless and yet we saw you in action on television using such amazing abilities.” Nezu grasped his paws together waiting for him to answer.
Izuku took a deep breath "I am quirkless sir, I was diagnosed at 4 years old and I used something that allowed for me to fight today." He reached to his belt and placed the golden Morpher on the table. "It allowed for me to access the abilities and equipment for me to save Bakugo and stop the villain, sir." Izuku watched as everyone in the room leaned in to get a closer look at it.
"What is it?" Midnight asked looking at the detail in the gold coin in the center. She had never seen anything like it.
Izuku took another deep breath "It's called a Master Morpher it allows me to morph into a variety of different Rangers and use their abilities. The one I used to fight today the Green Dragon Ranger abilities." He wished he had DECA with him here to help explain all of this since he only had a quick course in this and rushed out to save Bakugo.
"What are these Rangers?" the Scraggy man asked keeping a close eye on Izuku. "Why did they give this item to you instead of a Pro Hero?" The man watched as Izuku tried and failed to explain several times. Before he could think of a reply his watch beeped and a voice came through it.
"I can answer those questions for you Izuku since I have access to that information and I didn't get a chance to go in-depth with you about it," DECA said through the communicator. “Hello everyone I am DECA and I am in charge of the Command Center and the one who gave Izuku the Master Morpher to use to save young Bakugo from a terrible fate.” Izuku raised the communicator and placed his wrist on the table for everyone to hear her easier.
"Well, this is an interesting turn of events," Nezu said before chuckling. "Well Miss DECA can you please walk us through this please so we may act accordingly?" Nezu curiosity was peaked with this new development of an unknown party that he has never heard of.
“It would be much simpler Nezu to teleport everyone here to the Command Center to show you a lot easier than to explain it. If that is alright with everyone." DECA replied to Nezu “It is perfectly safe and Izuku and done so twice.”
"It's true I got teleported in and out rather easily," Izuku stated making all eyes turn in his direction before he lean back a little further into his seat from the incredulous gazes from the Heroes and the stern gaze from his mother. "I'll just sit quietly for now." He said trying to shrink into his chair. The looked got from his mother was a 'well talk about this later.' He knew he was in big trouble.
"I think that would be best for the best," Inko said still looking at Izuku "I'd like to know what my son has gotten himself into if you don't mind. DECA was it?"
“It would be my pleasure, Miss Midoriya.” DECA was silent for a moment "I have the teleport set for 6 is that correct?” After getting multiple acknowledgments from the group they all disappeared from the interrogation room and appeared in the center of the Command Center. After a few moments of disorientation, everyone looked in awe of their surroundings similar to how Izuku was when he was brought here. DECA appeared on the screen with a smile. "Welcome everyone to the Command Center. I am DECA the Artificial Intelligence that runs the Command Center for all Power Ranger Operations."
"Wait AI?" Nezu asked still in awe of being teleported and now being exposed to incredible advanced AI along with the amazing command center around him. "I have to say this is truly remarkable to be brought here." He looked around to see everything around him. Midnight had moved to look at the Suits in the display cases. The man moved towards the weapons rack for inspections. Yu and Inko moved closer to the monitor where DECA was on the screen.
"Greetings Miss Midoriya, Miss Takeyama, How may I be of service?" DECA asked them as they neared her screen. Inko seemed to hesitate for a moment before finding her nerve to ask
"Why was my son given the Master Morpher?" Inko asked in a serious tone "He could have been hurt or worse when he went up against that villain. He is my only son and I want him to be happy, but why him and not the thousands of heroes?
DECA gave her a gentle smile "I may have given it to him Miss Midoriya, but I did not choose him to be selected by the Morpher. It was designed so that only someone with a true hero's heart may be allowed to use the Morpher to the full extent as a safety feature it is linked to Izuku DNA making it so no one can use it even if it is taken from him. Also, there are indeed thousands of heroes that could have been a candidate for it, but Izuku had the Heart of a True Hero and the Heart of Ranger." DECA words seem to ring through the room as everyone had slowly drifted towards DECA. Izuku scratched the back of his head looked a bit embarrassed at the praise he was getting. “I will show you what a Power Ranger is, please look to the screen and watch.”
Everyone looked to watch the same video Izuku had watched earlier, but with a bit more detail for the adults. It showed that these teams were called to action and battled evil and retired when the time came for them to enjoy their earned peace. Needless to say, everyone was in awe of these young heroes to fight for the planet. It also showed all of them that DECA and the Master Morpher were from another universe and that nothing like it existed on their planet.
After the video ended Inko moved and pulled her son tight to her chest and held him close for a few minutes. "You're still going to be a hero even after knowing what it means to be a Ranger?" She asked her son softly. It frightened her that her son wanted to do a dangerous job of being a Pro Hero and being Quirkless made her anxiety worse watching the news and hearing about critically injured heroes or Heroes that were killed in the line of duty. She watched what the Power Ranger fought and knew her son was exactly what they were looking for and hoped this would keep him safe. She felt her son nod into her shoulder to her question. She took a deep breath "I’ll support you Izuku, but promise me you will do your best to always come home to me please?”
Izuku tightened his hug of his mother "I promise Mom." Izuku only had his Mom left to look out for him and wanted to make sure she would smile again. "I can't promise I won't get hurt on the job, but I will fight tooth and nail to keep my promise." Both were lost in the moment when they heard sniffling and both turned to see both Midnight and Yu crying from the sweet sight in front of them.
Nezu cleared his throat "Now that we have more information on what allowed Young Midoriya to fight was with the use of the Morpher and not a quirk we now know that he won't be charged for illegal quirk usage and attempted vigilantism.” Nezu said letting both Midoriya’s let out a sigh of relief. “That being said when you take the UA entrance exam you need to register with me to receive permission to use it as a support item.” Izuku nodded at this and understood that any kind of equipment used must be approved before the start of the exam. He was glad that he was still being allowed to enter the exam after finding out what happened today. “I also would like to have you train with a few of the UA teachers to help you master your new powers.”
Izuku's mouth was agape "Y-you want me to train at UA with the Teachers?" This wasn't making any sense to him since he wasn’t a student and it was almost unheard of for someone not affiliated with the school to train at UA. When he saw Nezu nod his head yes, Izuku reached to pinched his arm. "Nope, not dreaming." Izuku bowed heavily at the waist "Thank you so much for your kindness sir!" He said tears running down his face.
Nezu smiled "You are quite welcome young man and I look forward to talking more with you DECA if you are fine with it."
DECA nodded on the screen. "That would be nice Nezu, I have already added my number to your phone so you may contact me if you have any more questions that I may answer for you." DECA bowed on the screen. "Now your scruffy friend that is trying to examine the weapons case is being rather rude not to introduce himself.”
The man in question turned around and let out a sigh "My name is Shouta Aizawa, I am a homeroom teacher at UA and I am also the Underground Hero Eraserhead. I was trying to figure some of this stuff out to help Midoriya with his training since he has 10 months until the entrance exam.” His tone was casual, but it was almost monotone.
Midnight looked at Shouta with pure shock. "Wait YOU are going to train someone of your own free will? Who are you and where is the real Shouta?” Midnight asked her longtime friend. He rarely trained anyone that wasn’t required. He preferred to spend his time sleeping in his sleeping bag or being left alone to grade his work. This was completely out of character for him to want to take a potential student and train them for the exams.
Shouta rolled his eyes at Midnight "I just watched a kid with no quirk take on a slime villain that several Pro's couldn't take down, save the kid being held hostage, and defeat the villain with no training from the looks of him. Now granted he used his Morpher and it granted him the power to fight, but he was fast and efficient. Also, at the end of the fight, he surrendered to the authorities with any complaints.” Shouta crossed his arms “I want to train him to find what he can do without using his Morpher since you know I fight quirkless and prefer close combat."
Yu joined in on the conversation “Hey! If you’re going to train him. I want to help train him as well. I watched him fight and I read his quirk analysis of me that was 95% accurate to my knowledge on just watching my debut earlier today. Not to mention I think he can teach me to be more analytic in my fights.” Yu was wanting to join in on the possibility of training him. That and she also didn’t trust Midnight to leave him alone while he was training at the school. “I'll take some time to come train him when my schedule allows for it.”
Midnight tapped her chin with a finger "Well I guess I can take some time to teach him as well." Midnight had offered but received glares from Shouta and Yu that stopped her in her tracks. "Hey I may be a flirt, but I can teach him a few hero tricks and be professional at the same time.
As the 3 were trying to lay claim to who got to teach Izuku what at UA. Inko was smiling that so many people were trying to train her son. She was watching her son crying happy tears at the fact Pro's what to help him obtain his dreams. She was still scared for him but hoping that with training he would thrive as a Hero Student. She watched as Nezu walked over to Izuku.
"Izuku may I have a look at your analysis notes please?" Nezu asked him politely. Izuku was stunned for a moment at the request but handed the notebook over to him. "Thank you." Nezu started to flip through it a page at a time with each page his eyes grew bigger. "Were you self-taught or did someone instruct on how to be an analyst?"
Izuku tilt his head to the side slightly with a confused look on his face. "I taught myself watched Heroes on TV or any videos I could find online. I started out using a crayon when I was 4 and as I grew up I started to go into more detail and taught myself how to draw to go next to my analysts." Izuku said rubbing the back of his head slightly embarrassed about his notebook. "I hope maybe one day of having it published and sent to UA to help other heroes understand their Quirks." Izuku was blushing as his dream of having his research published as a way to be a different kind of hero if he were turned away from UA.
All the adults in the room stopped and were looking at him in amazement. Shouta was slightly concerned with the grin on his boss's face that normally meant more work for him in the process. Yu and Midnight had to contain a squeal at how adorable he looked just a moment ago when he tilted his head in confusion.
Nezu rubbed his hand together with a large smile on his face. "Well that is settled then, I will set a schedule for you to train with Yu, Shouta, and Midnight at UA where we have the facilities to train you, and one day a week I want to see you for private tutoring with myself to improve your already amazing analysis on quirks." This had several effects on the group. First Yu and Inko were amazed that Nezu wanted to give Izuku private lessons and was willing to allow him access to UA facilities to train with the 3 heroes before his entrance exam. Midnight and Shouta were terrified for a completely different reason. Their boss was incredibly intelligent and had never taken a private student to teach and now he had found one that was incredibly smart and had an analytical mind that was ready to be molded. They now feared the second coming of Nezu in the future.
This was what finally broke Izuku. He was being offered training by 3 Pros and being allowed to train at UA was one thing, but now he was being offered to be a private student by the President of UA personally was too much for him. He started to cry hard and fell to his knees covering his face. After all the years of being mistreated by classmates and teachers this it was so surreal for him to see people wanting to help him. After 10 long years of mistreatment and abuse, there were finally other adults besides his mother that wanted him to help him succeed.
The adults in the room were confused at his sudden breakdown. Inko was by his side in an instant and held him in a loving embrace whispering soothing words into his ear. For Nezu,
Midnight and Shouta this was a red flag of him being abused and mistreated for a very long time. They knew it was not the mother as they saw him hold onto her like a lifeline. Yu was heartbroken to see him like this moved forward and started rubbing his back gently telling him it was ok. She was not an expert on kids but had babysat a few times in school to help soothe, upset kids. DECA watched him as he broke down and wished she could be more helpful, but as she did not have a physical body was unable to do more than watch at the moment and monitor her new charges health and well-being. When he finally settled down enough to speak he kept apologizing to them.
"Izuku, honey what's going on dear?" Inko asked full of concern for her son. "Please can you tell what brought on?" She had a solid grip on his son keeping him close to her while running a hand through his hair. It took him a bit to finally find his voice.
"If I tell you, then everyone will stop helping me," Izuku said in a small voice. All of his courage from earlier was gone with this emotional breakdown. He had not told anyone about what had been happening to him. He had been trying to hold it all in and keep it bottled up. He knew that it wasn’t healthy, but he didn’t want people to pity him for it. He knew his Mom was best friends with his Aunt Mitsuki and didn’t want to ruin their long friendship.
"Izuku. Look at me please." Yu voice right next to him. He hesitated for a moment but turned his head towards her. Yu had taken off her mask and was looking him directly in the eyes. "Please tell us what happened, I promise I won't leave you." Her voice was soft and gave his hand a soft squeeze.
"Promise?" Izuku asked almost in a whisper.
Yu nodded "I Promise Izuku, Please tell us what caused you to cry when we offered to help you." She gently rubbed in small circles into his back. “I’ll be here the whole time.” She never looked away from him and gave him a kind smile. “Please?”
Izuku let out a long ragged breath "Ok, but please wait until I finish to ask questions or interrupt me please, I may lose my confidence." The adults nodded and He began his story from the day he was told he was quirkless and was told to give up on his dream by the doctor, how his former friend Kacchan became his main bully and how he was treated by both students and staff. He was constantly used as a test dummy by Kacchan explosions or his little gang would beat him up to 'put a worthless Deku in his place'. He was good at applying bandages to himself and had used his own pocket money to replace his uniform when he couldn't repair it. How when he reported it to the teachers or the staff they called him a liar and a trouble maker making sure that Bakugo was left out of the report. He told them how he was graded differently from the other student and was always graded harsher to not make other students look bad that he was smarter than him.
When he reached the story of how he was told to go jump off a roof by his former friend and then being told by the current number one hero All Might he needed to give up his dream since he didn't have a Quirk and finished with how he was brought to the Command Center. As he finished he was emotionally and physically exhausted from unloading his burdens. Izuku looked up to see Yu and his mother crying and both gave him a big hug. He watched the fury radiation off the UA Staff. Shouta and Midnight wanted to go burn that school to the ground and round up the bullies, but they couldn't since they were heroes. Nezu was quiet, but inside was a maelstrom of rage and fury. It took all he had not to take revenge for the young boy. He took a long deep breath and let it out counting to 10. He was going to have chat personally with All Might very soon and it was not going to be pleasant for him.
Elsewhere All Might felt a cold shiver run down his spine.
"Miss Midoriya, if you are ok with it, I want to take Izuku on as my student starting on Monday. I will take care of his complete education starting Monday until he starts classes at UA. It will also allow for me to have him on a training schedule and allow for Miss Takeyama to become a part-time instructor and be able to help train him in her free time. Would that be acceptable to you?" Nezu stood tall and held his hand behind his back.
Inko nodded after drying her tears. "That would be acceptable Principal Nezu. I will withdraw him from that place first thing in the morning." She was feeling a multitude of emotions from anger at Katsuki, to being upset with Mitsuki, to being devastated that Izuku putting her friendship above his welfare. "Izuku promise me you won't try and bottle this up again and let me know if something or someone is bothering you." Izuku's eyes went to the floor and mumbled something she couldn't quite make out. "What did you say, dear?"
Izuku swallowed "I said I didn't want to be a burden on you any more than I already am." Izuku's eyes remained on the floor. "I know you have to work twice as hard at the hospital for me to go to school and take care of everything when you get home. I overheard how they passed your promotion because they found out I was quirkless. I didn't want-." He was cut off mid steam of his rambling when his mother gentle moved his face to face her.
"Izuku, I am your mother it is my job to worry and take care of you. Since your father left us you became my whole world and my purpose in life. I have had the privilege of watching you grow and become the amazing man I see here today. I wasn't going to get that job regardless of what you heard and I don't care about it since I get to come home to see you." She gently wiped a tear away from his eyes with her thumbs. "So please don't hide stuff like this from me and I will always stand behind my little hero understand?" Izuku nodded unable to find his voice. "Now this is all in the past. You have a fresh start from this point on my future Hero and Power Ranger.
Izuku gave her a million-watt smile. "I can do that Mom and Thank you, Mom." He hugged her tightly. He looked back at the Adults that were here to help him. "Now, where do we go from here?" He asked them.
Shouta cleared his voice and walked closer to him "Now we have 10 Months to prepare you for the Entrance Exam. I will say this we will train you properly so welcome to your new Boot Camp." He gave him a small smile at Izuku making the boy wonder what he had just agreed to.
Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Hero Training and Rise of a Ranger
Summary:
Training and Preparation for the UA Exams. Izuku makes a new Friend
(Edited on 12/25/21)
Chapter Text
The next ten months went by before Izuku knew it. There had been many changes in his life since that fateful day he debuted as a Ranger. First was his withdrawal from his middle school and was registered as Nezu's personal student. After a few tests, it was discovered that Izuku was quite bright and well educated despite his school's attempts to sabotage him. It didn't take long before Izuku was working at a higher education level. His lesson on analysis with Nezu was quite in-depth and many times they went on for hours before stopping. They had forged a good mentor/student bond. Nezu always enjoyed watching Izuku's eyes light up with passion when he was talking about a new quirk or a new hero that made their debut. He always smiled at this and vowed to keep his student like this for as long as possible.
His lessons with Shouta had been brutal at first. He was started with a full in-depth physical training routine that changed him from a skinny kid to a healthy well-toned body and reflexes. Shouta was his main instructor in combat and taught him tactics during the week. By the time the Entrance exam arrived, he was able to fight as a highly trained martial artist without having to use his Morpher for every fight. Shouta started sparing with him 4 months into the training as both himself or have Izuku morph into a ranger form. Shouta would normally win when he was unmorphed despite Izuku having enhanced strength and reflexes from his Morpher due to being a more experienced fighter as a Pro Hero. Now when Izuku was morphed he was at the advantage since Shouta couldn't erase his powers and this, in turn, made Shouta a better fighter learning to change up his tactics better and knowing when to ask for help in a fight or fall back.
Yu had risen through the Hero ranking and was becoming a well-liked Heroine in the community. She had taken several lessons from Gunhead and even got a few hand-to-hand lessons from Shouta when she was there to train Izuku. She would teach him how to take down an opponent larger than him. In the process of training Izuku and having him analyze her quirk, it was soon discovered that she could adjust her size as needed. It took more concentration to stop herself from reaching her full height, but it gave her more diversity in her abilities. She had gotten closer to Izuku and dotted on him as a big sister would. She saw Inko as a second mother and was often invited over to dinner with Inko and Izuku. It had helped her be a better heroine and relied more on her smile than on flashing her 'assets' to the public. She had done several public events with Izuku as her assistance in cleaning up a few parks and reading to kids at several children's hospitals had made her a better Heroine as well. Izuku always came out to these events and they got their photo together of both of them smiling and nicknamed the Smiling Duo. Yu and Nemuri were not the best of friends, but they could tolerate each other enough not to fight since it upset Izuku. She enjoyed being a part-time teacher and found that several students looked up to her as their favorite hero. She had been considering taking up a full-time position at some point if, it was offered to her.
Inko had many big changes after what happened to her son. First, she was hired by Nezu to be a nurse at UA along with Recovery Girl. It was decided that the school needed more medically trained staff especially when the Sports Festival was going on. Inko loved her new job as it allowed her to be home more with Izuku and UA paid extremely well, and it took some of the financial stress off of her. She got a full lecture about self-care from Recovery Girl and started to go to the gym and started eating better. By the time Izuku took the Entrance Exam she was back to a healthy weight and looked like she did when Izuku was 4. She felt more confident in her appearance and she made sure to keep taking care of herself. She had met with Mitsuki not long after the slime incident and told her what had been going on between their sons.
Mitsuki was horrified about her son's behavior towards Izuku. It took some serious convincing that she was unaware of it and promised to keep him away from Izuku for the foreseeable future. They stayed friends and she normally went over to Inko's place to visit since Inko was still angry at Katsuki.
Inko had also become good friends with Nemuri (Midnight) who introduced her to other female Heroines for a weekly get-together and hit it off with them almost immediately. When they got together it was Inko, Nemuri, Yu, Mitsuki, Rumi (Miruko), and Ryuko (Ryukyu). Everyone had a lot of fun especially when she showed them a few of his pictures from Izuku's younger days. It was much later when Izuku found out and almost died from embarrassment. Inko had also used that time to train her quirk properly. She could attract larger items, but nothing bigger than a loaf of bread, but she learned to be able to send it flying at high speeds. She would not be a heroine, but she could use her quirk to get what she needed in the clinic even if it was across the room.
Nemuri had taken the role of teaching Izuku how to deal with the press and how to maintain his public image in the future. She showed him how to properly design a hero suit and how to make himself stand out among other heroes. Nemuri, like Yu, had taken to him as an older sister and would normally find him after his lessons with Nezu and pull him into a hug and cuddle on the couch in her office like he was a teddy bear, much to his embarrassment and confusion of students and staff at the school. She had also been working with him as a therapist on how he was treated and helped him recover in a healthy way to build up his self-confidence. There had been a slight setback at this. Izuku had been talking to her for almost 7 months when he let it slip that he never had a health class in his old school because he was quirkless they sent him to a study hall. Nemuri took it upon herself to contact Inko and they both put together a sex education class just before his 15th birthday. Needless to say, when it was over he was red as a tomato and was unable to look either of them in the eye. It took just over a week for him to be able to interact with the opposite sex without turning into a blushing mess. After that, she worked on getting him used to being touched without flinching with simple hugs. By end of the training period, he was 90% back to being a normal teenager. Some of his emotional problems would take several years for him to completely recover from, but it was an amazing start for her baby brother.
Izuku had been put through the wringer with all his training. While he was training with Shouta, Nemuri, Yu, and Nezu, he had also been training with DECA being put through Power Ranger training programs. It allowed him to master his abilities. The Morpher gave him the know-how to use his weapons, abilities, and Zords, but only through continuous training, he was able to start to master each of them. Some other programs were like tutorials to walk him through different scenarios, while others were recreations of epic fights that allow him to manage a chaotic battlefield. He had learned to use multiple Ranger forms but tried to keep that list small right now to allow himself to master a few before moving on to other rangers. He also discovered that when using certain Morphers they allowed him to have different ranger abilities in his civilian form like Super speed (Dino Red Ranger), Energy Shield (SPD Blue Ranger) Magic (Mystic Force Rangers), Ninjutsu (Ninja Storm Rangers), etc. He had found a way for DECA to move around outside the Command Center allowing her to use a fox-like robot that let her experience the world with Izuku that allowed her to access the internet and gain current and historical information on this universe. Izuku hoped someday to make her a robotic body to be able to do more and have a bit more freedom. He looked back and realized that he had changed quite a bit thanks to everyone helping him and couldn't wait for when the time came to take to his exam. Nezu had offered him a slot in the Recommended Exam, but he turned it down. Izuku wanted to earn his place at UA like everyone else with no special treatment or favors. Nezu smiled at his student and respected his choice as he was looking forward to seeing him shine above the rest.
The best day of his life was at his 15th birthday party. He normally only celebrated with his Mom, but this year they were going all out for him. Inko had made him his favorite breakfast and had taken him to a Hero Museum with Yu, Nemuri, and DECA in her fox-body. Afterward, they stopped for a light lunch and then took him to see a new movie. That was more than enough for him to call it a great birthday. He was surprised when they took him back to UA for a real celebration with cake and his favorite dinner made by Lunch Rush. He had met some of the teachers as he trained or went to class with Nezu, but they were all there to wish him a happy birthday. Yu had gotten him a set of custom training clothes that had black pants and a dark green muscle shirt. Nemuri got him a new Purple Music player that had a few hundred songs already loaded onto it. Nezu gave him a few 1st edition books on classic Literature. Shouta gave him a utility belt with pouched a Kabar knife in a sheath for when he started class. Inko was not happy about the knife but understood since Shouta had trained him how to use one. Inko's gift was an autograph book signed by all current UA staff. Mitsuki had sent him a new duffle bag for his training gear that had his name sewn into the side. Rumi gave him a set of kickboxing gear and told him to call her to set up some lessons with her. Ryuko had given him a leather jacket that looked like dragon scales saying it would look good on their little Green Ranger. Izuku told them all it was the best birthday ever and bowed to them in thanks. A few of the adults were sad to see that he had no one his age to be his friend. They knew he had tried a few times, but once they discovered he was quirkless, they told him to go away. They hoped after class started maybe it would get better for him.
After his amazing birthday, he called and got several painful lessons in kickboxing from the Rabbit Heroine. She showed that while he was good, he needed to add some more power to his kicks which normally left him exhausted and barely able to walk. His last big thing was he was tired of looking outside the Command Center and seeing all the garbage so he started to clean up the beach during the last 3 months before his exam day. He worked for a few hours and used this to train his different Ranger abilities. After about a month he had cleared a third of the beach and that is when he met someone new. He was working on a pile when heard someone yelling at him.
"Oi, you're the one taking my salvage!"
Izuku set down the load in his arms to turn and see a girl his age she was slightly shorter in height wearing a black tank top and gray overalls. She wore heavy brown gloves and had a pair of google on his pink hair that was set into dreadlocks down to her shoulder. She had a mature physique muscular arms and a busty chest. He was used to Yu and Nemuri teasing him and smashing his face into their chests to get him flustered. He wiped his hands on his pants and extended his hand to her "Oh sorry, my name is Izuku Midoriya and I didn't know anyone was using the junk here. I just wanted to clean the beach and make it beautiful again." He gave her a smile "Who are you?"
The girl seemed to look at him closely before taking his hand "Mei Hatsume, Inventor and future CEO of Hatsume Industries." She let go of his hand and put her fists on her hips and stood taller. "I have been coming here for years for my salvage, but I had enough salvage that I have not made any recent trips here, I noticed that stuff was starting to disappear and didn’t know why until today that is.” She seemed to focus on his pile of junk before focusing back on him. “I see a few things that stack that I need, are you good with me taking what I need?”
Izuku stood aside "Nope go ahead I am using this as extra training for UA and wanted to do a good deed for the area." Izuku turned to see her almost nose to nose with him causing him to blush "Uh what's up?" he tried to act casual about her being so close, but no girl his age he knew had been this close together with him ever.
"You're going to UA?" Mei asked looking him over.
Izuku nodded "Yes, I am trying out for the Hero Course." He leaned back slightly and noticed her eyes were like a yellow with cross-hairs in her Irises. "What is your quirk if I may ask?" He asked out of curiosity.
Mei looked at him before blinking. "My quirk is Zoom," She said pointing to her eyes. "It allowed me to see things up to 5 kilometers and helps a lot with building my babies." Mei jabbed a thumb towards her face "I am heading for the Support Course."
"Babies?" Izuku asked confused.
Mei reached into her pocket and pulled out a strange gadget "These are my babies that I created with my own two hands." Mei went into a thinking pose "Ok I think I will team up with you Zuzu and be your inventor for all your support gear needs.
'Zuzu?" Izuku thought to himself "You don't even know what my quirk is and you want to build stuff for me?" He noticed she had been toying with her gadget after taking a few parts from his junk pile.
"Oh, yeah." Mei said absentmindedly after a few moments of tinkering with her gadget "What does your quirk do? She never looked up to talk, just kept messing with her gadget.
"Well," Izuku stated and thought about lying, but shrugged his shoulders "I'm quirkless." He waited for Mei to walk away from him since that is what he was used to.
"Oh," Mei said as she finished messing with the gadget and put it back in her pocket. "Well I will start working on a few things and we can set a time for you to test them out."
Izuku looked at her in amazement. "It doesn't bother you?" He asked wondering why she was so calm about it.
Mei shrugged "Well my dad was quirkless, so I don't care about that as long as I get to create babies and make my name known to the world. I am sure that with you I can do that." She gave him a cocky smile "So want to team up Zuzu?" she reached out to take his hand.
Izuku thought for a moment and took her hand “Deal Mei.”
After that, the next few months were changed up with his first new friend in ages and now he had an ally to rely on. A month before the exam the beach was cleared and Mei had all the salvage she needed for her tech for her Entrance Exam. After talking it over with the other adults, she was introduced to DECA and the command center. Mei acted like it was Christmas morning and wanted to know all about the neat toys and after he showed Mei his morphed form had made her want to be his personal tech support even more. It took some time to get used to having her around and after DECA and Izuku reached an agreement they began to let Mei learn some of the Power Ranger technology. DECA and Izuku made Mei promise that she would only work on Ranger tech in the Command Center. She agreed and was often nearby while Izuku trained on the beach and she was given a special communicator that allowed her to teleport in with Izuku's permission. Mei and DECA created a special ear com-link for Nemuri, Shouta, Inko, Rumi, Nezu, and Yu that allowed them to contact Izuku via his communicator and teleport them to the Command Center.
Needless to say, when he introduced her to most of the adults in his life, he was teased mercilessly for bringing a girl home to meet the family
Izuku was nervous about bringing Mei to meet his family. He was close with his new friend, but sometimes she had no filter and misunderstandings happened. Mei had been excited about being invited over for a family dinner. Izuku had warned her they would probably tease her, but they didn't mean anything bad about it.
"Welcome to my Home, Mei," Izuku said opening the door for her and gesturing her inside. Izuku could smell the wonderful food that had been prepared. "Mom, I'm home and with our dinner guest." He called out as he took off his shoes.
“In the kitchen dear.” Inko called back “Come in and join us.”
Izuku pointed in the direction of the kitchen "Ok." As he walked into the kitchen he saw his mother putting the finishing touches on dinner and could see his sisters sitting around the table talking until they saw the two of them enter the kitchen. "Hey everyone, this is Mei Hatsume the friend I made down at the beach." He gestured to each of his sisters. "This is Ryuko, Yu, Nemuri, and last, but certainly not least Rumi." Each of his sisters gave her a wave or a simple greeting. "This is my Mom who is making our dinner tonight."
Inko wiped her hands on a towel before she extended her hand toward Mei. "It is so lovely to finally meet you, dear. Izuku talks about you quite often." Inko said with a kind smile on her face.
“Mei grinned at this and shook Inko's hand “Oh really you talk about me that much Zuzu.” Mei teased as she watched his sister start to grin like sharks smelling blood in the water.
"Oh~ Zuzu is it now?” Nemuri purred “I didn’t know you had a nickname with your little friend?” Nemuri looked to see the others starting to smile as well.
"Oh well, I didn't know you were such a smooth operator Izuku.' Ryuko laughed as his face turned red. "She seems rather attached to you." She gave Nemuri a fist bump as they were just getting started.
“Oh, Izuku has been checking up on me and making sure I remember to eat or to sleep when I get too wrapped up in a project," Mei stated not catching the teasing tone they were giving her friend.
Yu cooed at this “Aw I knew my baby brother was such a kind person, but this makes it even more adorable.” Yu gave him a teasing smile as he became more flustered.
“I-I-am just trying to make sure she gets out of her lab once in a while and eats something more than her junk food.” Izuku stuttered out as his family doubled down on their teasing. Izuku offered Mei a chair at the table and she sat down next to him. “Mei would you like something to drink?”
“Water please.”
Izuku nodded and went to get her drink. He knew there was going to be a comment at some point about this and now he was waiting for it.
"Wow, you already have him waiting on you, hand and foot. I'm impressed." Rumi teased "He won't need too much husband training at his point." Rumi's grin turned feral as she looked at Izuku.
"Well, I think Zuzu will be an amazing husband someday with how kind he is," Mei answered absent-mindedly as she was sketching something on a napkin that had popped into her head.
Izuku nearly stumbled at this and had to catch himself on the edge of the counter. He knew Mei just spoke her mind when she was working on something. He placed her glass in front of her and knew that the teasing had only just begun. 'Mei will be the death of me.' He thought to himself. Lucky his mother saved him from any more teasing.
"Aright girls that's enough teasing your brother. It is time for dinner," Inko said giving him a wink at her timely arrival. Izuku mouth a 'thank you.' He got Mei to stop working on her sketch and handed her a plate of food.
They broke into a light conversation as they all loved it when Inko cooked a meal and all wanted to savor her godly meals. After everyone was full from dinner they wanted to get to know the pink-haired girl a little better.
“So, I heard from Izuku that you are applying for the Support Course, right?” Inko asked giving the young girl her full attention.
"Yep, my goal is to graduate and to open my own support company Hatsume Industries and have everyone wanting to buy my inventions." Mei was beaming with pride at her dream and everyone couldn't help but smile at her.
"Well you did promise to have my hero suit completed by the time UA starts and I will be your first customer to have your inventions in the Hero Course." Izuku had been denied a hero suit from the government since he was quirkless. Mei found out and promised to make it for him and showed Izuku her designs that would protect him better. Izuku gave her a few of his sketches, but she would not let him see the suit until it was finished.
“Oh, don't worry Zuzu, you have my word it will be done before you need it for school." Mei's eyes sparkled with delight. "When you have time, we will get back to work on making more babies together at the Command Center."
Izuku's heart dropped at the word babies. He knew Mei meant her inventions since he helped her with them, but his family did not. You could have heard a pin drop with the silence that filled the room as they focused on the two of them.
“B-Babies?” Inko asked her voice shaking from the shock. Yu rushed over to calm Inko down after shooting Izuku an incredulous look.
Izuku tried to speak. "It's not what you-. “
He was cut off by a laugh from Rumi who was leaning forward. "Well, I was not expecting that from you so soon after meeting her Izuku. I thought you were too timid, but color me surprised.” Rumi gave him a grin before looking at the Mei.
Izuku tried again “I’m trying telling you-. “
"Izuku, I'm surprised at you, but you are at that age where hormones can get the best of us," Ryuko said pinching the bridge of her nose. "Please tell me you used protection.” Her tone had a desperate plea as she was too young to be an Aunt.
"Why wouldn't Zuzu wear protection?" Mei asked confused about everyone's reactions to her making babies with Izuku. "He has a strong grip and his fingers are quite nimble to fit into tight places perfectly." Mei had seen him help with gadgets that she couldn't get a part in right or screw to line up properly.
This sent them into overdrive at her comments. Izuku thought this would be how he died of embarrassment.
"Well, it seems that our dear brother and his friend here require a refresher course with me," Nemuri said focusing her gaze on her brother and Mei.
Izuku spoke quickly. "Mei, I am begging you. Please tell them what you call your babies. Please?" His tone was desperate to get this straighten out. He did not want to sit through a refresher with Nemuri anytime soon.
Mei looked confused at him for a moment. "That is what got them upset? My inventions are my babies and Izuku helps me when I need another set of hands building them or when I hit a block I can't figure out a problem." Mei looked at the surprised looks she was getting from Izuku's sisters. "What?"
"You call your inventions babies?" Ryuko asked slowly trying to make sure she understood. Mei nodded at this. "Oh, thank god for that.” She mumbled resting her head in her hand.
"Mei, did you ever pay attention in your Sex Education class in school?" Nemuri asked feeling relieved that her brother was NOT sleeping with his first female friend and it was all just a big misunderstanding.
Mei gave her a shrug. "Not really it was boring and I spent my time working on designs for other babies I could make." Mei was still confused as to why everyone was making a big deal out of nothing. She remembered bits apiece, but she was normally working on something to keep her busy.
"I see," Nemuri said before standing up and moving towards Mei. "Then as a teacher, it is my responsibly that I give you a class on Sex Education." She escorted Mei to the living room to give her a class immediately. Mei shot everyone a confused look as she went with Nemuri.
Inko had come back to her senses after hearing what happened and decided it would be best if she and Izuku went for a walk to clear out for Nemuri to teach Mei her special lesson. Rumi, Yu, and Ryuko went with them to spend more time with Izuku.
When they returned an hour later Mei was blushing red and was unable to look Izuku in the eye as she thanked him for dinner and apologize to him for causing the misunderstanding.
It took Mei 3 weeks after her impromptu lesson with Nemuri before she could talk with Izuku without looking at the ground or blushing heavily.
Soon it was time for the Entrance Exam and Mei had gone ahead to the Support Course area for her test. Izuku stood there admiring the building that had been his school for the last 10 months. He was wearing his gift from Yu his black pant, trademark red shoes, and his tight green Muscle shirt that had shown off his admirable hard work. He wore his leather jacket to keep his arms covered until it was time for the physical portion of the exam. He watched his former friend go in without even acknowledging his existence. Izuku was glad not to deal with him today and started walking to the door when his foot caught the sidewalk and almost fell until he noticed he was floating and was helped back up by someone.
"Careful don't want to get taken out before the exam even starts." A female voice said behind him with a giggle. Izuku turned to see a girl with brown hair and a kind round face with two pink blush marks on her cheeks and a kind smile. Her brown eyes were kind and she touched her hand together "Release!" and his gravity returned. "I'm Ochako Uraraka." She held out her hand.
Izuku smiled at her. "Thank you, my name is Izuku Midoriya." He said shaking her hand and making a mental note of the 'jelly beans' on each finger. "Are you here for the Hero Course as well?” when she nodded, he gestured for her to follow him. “Well let’s head in before we're late."
"Sure." Ochako said walking beside him "This day is going to be amazing!" she exclaimed as Izuku chucked as they walked into the testing hall together.

Chapter Text
Izuku blew through the written portion of the exam with ease after having Nezu as his teacher for the last 10 months and went to wait for the next portion in the nearby waiting room. He put in his headphones and started listening to music. He didn't have any diehard preferences something with a beat that he could work out or relax with. He had been sitting there for about an hour before the other students started to trickle in after they finished their written exams. He was just bobbing his head to the beat when he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned to see Ochako and a petite girl with purple hair and earphone jacks at the end of her ears. “What’s up Uraraka, Miss?” He asked the girl as he finished taking out his headphones.
"Hey Izuku, call me Ochako and this is my friend Kyoka Jirou from my last school," Ochako said with a big smile she took a seat next to him and Kyoka took one next to her.
"I'll try Ura-"Izuku stopped when she narrowed her eyes and mouthed her name. "Err, I'll try Ochako, and nice to meet you too Jirou." He gave her a weak smile as Ochako's brightened at making him call her by her first name.
Kyoka snorted at her best friend's antics. "Just call me Kyoka since Ochako has been doing it since we first met and she can be stubborn on certain things."
Ochako puffed out her cheeks and blushed as her friend laughed. Ochako gave her a friendly elbow to the arm. Izuku smiled and started talking to them. He discovered Ochako's quirk was Gravity which allowed her to control gravity when she touched it with all 5 of her fingertips but got ill if she lifted too much.
Kyoka's quirk was Earphone Jack which allow her incredible hearing and could channel her heartbeat through them, but she had very sensitive hearing in return. Izuku pulled out a pair of earplugs that she could use during the exam if needed. Kyoka gave him a genuine smile and thanked him. He pulled out his notebook and noted their quirks each getting two full pages and made a note to sketch later. Before they could ask what, his quirk was Present Mic started talking to the class and told them about the exam. A blue-haired boy with a tall proper posture was asked about the 4th robot which was the Zero Pointer.
Eventually, they were given their testing sites. Kyoka was assigned to one, while Izuku and Ochako were assigned to another. They all promised to meet at the front gate of the school afterward. On the bus ride over everyone was nervous and the bus was starting to get tense. He noted the blue hair boy from before was on the bus looking stiff as a rock. He sent his mother a quick message and placed his phone back inside his jacket pocket. He noticed Ochako's hands were almost trembling.
"Hey relax and take a deep breath," Izuku said gently patting the back of her hand. "If you get too worked up you will just psych yourself out." He gave her a wide smile "You will do fine I promise." Izuku was sure she would do fine with her quirk and decided to keep an eye on her if needed. She seemed to relax with a slight blush on her face and mumbled a thank you.
Before he could say else, they were told to exit the bus. They exited the bus and Izuku walked over to the locker area to place his coat inside one before walking towards the entrance area. He started to stretch to loosen up his muscles before going all out during the exam. He had his belt around his waist with his Morpher in the center and a knife near his right hand for emergencies. As he headed over to check on Ochako, he was stopped by the blue-haired boy.
"You can't have any equipment on you for this test." The boy almost yelled at him and placed a hand on his shoulder.
Izuku didn't flinch from his gaze and brushed his hand from his shoulder. "First off, I have permission to use support items approved by the Principal of UA as stated in the guidebook." Izuku started to walk past him "Second, don't touch me without a real purpose or a reason to do so." Izuku was still a bit sensitive about being touched thanks to years of abuse from Katsuki. When he reached where Ochako was standing he gave her a reassuring smile "Are you ready?" He asked her trying to help calm her down.
"Ready," she said giving him a nod. She crouched slightly ready for the starting countdown. Izuku grabbed the Master Morpher and switched to the Quantum Morpher that appeared on his left wrist. Before Ochako could ask a question, the gate dropped and Izuku took off running inside.
"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR GO THERE IS NO COUNTDOWN IN REAL LIFE!" Present Mic yelling into the Speaker System. This caused the other students to make a mad dash into the testing area.
“Quantum Power!” Izuku called out and disappeared in a flash of red light.
In the UA Viewing Room.
The room was slightly more crowded than usual this year. Inside the room was Nezu, Shouta, Nemuri, Present Mic, Power Loader, Cementoss, Snipe, and Vlad King that were normally at every Exam. This year they also had Recover Girl and the new Nurse Inko. Along with Mt. Lady Miruko and Ryukyu in full Heroine Costumes. Two Recommendation students accepted the invitation to see the regular exams from Nezu personally. The first was Momo Yaoyorozu and her best friend Setsuna Tokage. Both girls had passed their exams with flying colors and were curious as to how the exams were different. Momo was tall for her age with broad shoulders and muscular arms and legs. Setsuna called her an 'amazon' all the time since she was tall and muscular as 'unfairly stacked' in the chest. Her hair was black and pulled to one side allowing her onyx eyes to be visible. She wore her school uniform and stood with her arms crossed over her chest.
Setsuna was shorter than Momo and had a slimmer build, but was also muscular. An old teacher compared her to a panther, sleek, but powerful since people underestimated her when they faced her. She had dark green wavy hair and eyes with long and pointy teeth. She told everyone her teeth were dinosaur teeth. She wore her uniform as well. Both were making small talk until they heard Present Mic start the exam. Both moved to the closest screen to watch. Setsuna was geeking out about four top female heroines watching the exam. Momo smiled and noted they were focusing on the screen on a particular student. Momo watched Miruko talk to the green hair nurse “Time to see our boy shine Inko.” Miruko said to the nurse.
“Quantum Power!” Izuku called out and disappeared in a flash of red light.
Momo heard from the monitor "What the?" she asked in confusion.
(Power Rangers Time Force OST)
Testing Area
Izuku stood tall as the Quantum Ranger and he drew the Quantum Blaster from its holster and ran forward making fast work of several one-pointers before moving to the next area. He went to work dropping a two-pointer followed by a three-pointer in quick succession. He was moving at a steady pace and noticed a purple-haired boy about to be overwhelmed by several robots. Izuku dropped them with several quick shots and moved towards him "You OK?" he asked as the boy stood up and nodded his head. Izuku pull a metal arm from the robot and tossed it to him "Go for the legs and then the head, use that arm against the machine is safer than your bare hands, good luck!"
The purple-haired boy took the arm and slung it over his shoulder "Who the hell was that guy?" That was all he said before rushing off in the opposite direction to try and get as many points as possible before the exam came ended.
As the exam went on Izuku helped out other people along the way. One was a pink-haired girl about to get ambushed by a 3 pointer from behind. Another was an invisible girl about to be overrun when he took out a few of them down and jury-rigged a 2 pointer to obey her commands. Izuku aided several more people along the way as he continued earning his points. He saw Ochako tear through several of them yelling "28 points!" He lost track of his own and kept looking for people in need of any assistance.
In the UA Viewing Room.
"The guy in the red suit is good," Setsuna said watching him move from screen to screen. "Taking out robots and helping people as he goes." Pointing to the screen of a guy pinned to the ground until the red suit appeared and saved him before moving along. "I like his helmet." Giving her best friend a toothy smile.
Momo rolled her eyes with a smile. "Yes, he is good. I can see that his suit is right up your alley." Momo replied as she watched the actions of several skilled people that could be her future classmates. 'He has spent just as much time fighting the robots and he is helping others without breaking his stride.' Momo thought to herself as she continued watching with great interest.
Nemuri was standing next to Inko as she watched her son save one person after another with a massive smile on her face. She had been cheering him on with Mt. Lady, Miruko, and Ryukyu as he flew through the test. He was doing a great job. Miruko pointed out some of her kicks and bragged about teaching him that. And everyone was proud of him, Shouta was quiet, but had a small smirk on his face. It was unfortunate for Power Loader as he was in tears after watching Izuku decimate all his hard work so swiftly. Nezu looked at his watch. "Time for the big Finale." He said pressing a big red button.
Momo and Setsuna's eyes went wide when they saw the Zero Pointers start to move.
"Oh, My."
"Oh Shit."
Inko gasped and clutched her chest as Yu and Nemuri move to support her in case she passed out from sheer panic. No one had warned her about the sheer size of the Zero Pointers.
Testing Area
Izuku felt pretty good standing on top of a build watching over the other candidates. He watched as the clock in his visor was counting down the time. He was sure that he had more than enough points to pass and was about to head to the exit when he felt the building starting to shake. "What was that?" He turned to watch as a massive robot that had to be at least 50m in height moving towards the testing area. "Oh, that's the Zero Pointer." He said looking at its current path. He moved in that direction and made sure people were getting out of the way of the Zero Pointers' path. He was about to jump away when he heard someone cry out.
"Ow."
Izuku turned to the voice and his visor zoomed in to find Ochako was trapped under the debris as everyone was running away leaving her trapped. He moved on instinct and rushed towards her and in a couple of jumps, he was above her on the nearby building and dropped to the ground before he rushed towards her. "Ochako are you ok?" He asked kneeling next to her.
"Izuku?" Ochako asked trying to move the debris. "I'm stuck! You need to get out of here before the thing arrives!" She was afraid of her new friends getting hurt trying to help her. She struggled to try and free herself, but she was at a bad angle to reach the debris and use her quirk to get free.
"Not without you," Izuku replied in a tone of finality and with minimal effort lifted the debris off of her before tossing it aside. "Can you walk?" he saw her ankle that was viable was black and blue. She shook her head unshed tears in her eyes. "I've got you Ochako, hang on." Before she could say anything else he scooped her up in a bridal carry hugging her tight to his chest. Ochako face was bright red at his action and Izuku ran away from the Zero Pointer towards the nearest group of people.
He saw the blue-haired boy from earlier and yelled "HEY!" When the boy stopped before turning around. Izuku moved in front of him "Here take her to safety. I'm going to buy you guys some time with Zero Pointer."
"What!" Ochako And Blue haired boy exclaimed at the same time.
Izuku pointed towards the exit "Just go." He told them and his voice held a tone that said this was not up for debate before turning back towards the machine. He touched his Morpher and it changed back into the Master Morpher "It's Morphin Time! Dragonzord.” Izuku flashed green and was the Green Dragon Ranger. “Go!” Izuku said again to the pair before running towards the Zero Pointer.
"Wait! IZUKU!" Ochako shouted as she was taken to safety by the boy with blue hair.
In the UA Viewing Room.
When the women in the room watched him save the brown hair girl and then carry her bridal style to safety they were all grinning and cooing at him for being a perfect gentleman. Momo was blushing after reading all her romance novels that a knight in red armor saved her and carried her to safety. Setsuna was the same but she was more discreet about it. They were lost in their thoughts until Inko shouted "That's my baby and I am so proud of him!"
Momo and Setsuna smiled at the proud Mother. Then they watched as he handed her off to another boy with blue hair then heard “It's Morphin Time! Dragonzord!" and he flashed green and in a completely different suit, this had more of a dragon motif. Setsuna was drooling slightly at the suit and wondered what he looked like underneath since she didn't get a good look before the exam started. Then everyone in the room froze as he ordered them to go as he covered their exit. Momo raised a hand to cover her mouth.
Setsuna asked “Why is he going back? He got clear of that thing and is now running back towards that monster of a machine?” It just did not make any sense to Setsuna.
Inko was nearly hyperventilating.
Yu and Nemuri were not doing much better, but they were making sure to support Inko.
Miruko and Ryukyu were both watching with clenched fists.
"Because that is what a Hero does." A man's voice said behind them. Both girls looked to see the man Shouta standing near them. They had met before briefly before the exam started, but had remained silent for the most part. "He is giving his comrades a chance to escape even if will cause him an injury or worse." Both girls went pale. "That being said don't count that boy out just yet, he still has a few tricks up his sleeve." When that he gestured to the screen. "Just watch."
All Might stood in the corner just watching silently. 'What are you up to kid?' he wondered to himself.
(Go Green Ranger OST)
Testing Area
Izuku jumped with a superhuman ability to the top of the building and looked at the Zero Pointer. "DECA, please prepare the Zord Teleporter."
"Affirmative Izuku. I have it online and ready for your needs. I have all Zords prepped for deployment." DECA said from his communicator.
Izuku smiled and drew his Dragon Dagger "I Summon the mighty Dragonzord." He began playing the summoning song. After he finished his song a massive green and black Zord appeared beside him next to the building in a flash of green light. The Dragonzord was only 38m tall, but it made up for it with power. It let out a loud mechanical roar “Alright big guys, let’s get to work.”
He then jumped on top of the Dragonzord and began to play another tune. At the tips of each finger, missiles appeared and when Izuku gave the command they fired and 10 missiles flew into the robot stopping it in its tracks as it hits its joints and its head. Izuku jumped down in the cockpit and inserted his Power coin into the console. He then took manual control and moved the Dragonzord forward. The Zero Pointer moved and swung its massive fist at him, but Izuku saw this coming. He moved the Dragonzord by leaning his Zord enough to send the opposing fist glancing away and swung the Dragonzord's tail smashing into its legs causing it to them bend, but not break. “Tail Drill!” Izuku maneuvered the Dragonzord to hit that leg with its tail drill. Izuku noticed the machine was tilting heavily on the damaged leg. He aimed for the same spot taking the leg out at the joint sending the robot falling forward. With it, on the ground, Izuku moved and stepped on its head crushing it and showering the area with sparks and smoke. As he finished it off the Dragonzord gave out a mechanical roar of victory. Everyone from multiple areas had just watched as this massive Dragon-looking machine had just decimated a Zero Pointer.
Everyone was looking at the Dragonzord with both awe and fear of what they had just witnessed.
Ochako watched in awe as her friend had for a lack of a better word summoned a massive machine and went toe to toe with the Zero Pointer. At first, she was worried for Izuku, but after watching him crush its head she was in awe of how he did it. Her awe was cut short as the ground began to shake again as other Zero Pointers began to move towards him in a straight line. She prayed for his safety. Her ankle was hurt badly or she would have run back to find some way to help him. ‘Please be safe Izuku.’ She thought wanting her friend to be unharmed.
Kyoka had watched the giant Dragon-looking machine take down the Zero Pointer and give out a roar. "What the Hell is that?" She muttered wanting to look away but couldn't in awe of it display of power it had just demonstrated. Kyoka shook her head and moved in the opposite direction. "Going to grab a few points as far from that thing as humanly possible." And she found a few one-pointers for her to smash up along the way.
In the UA Viewing Room.
"He has a DRAGON!" Setsuna shouted in excitement as she watched one of her favorite things in the world just appear like magic. Then he sent it to attack with missiles before jumping inside of it to battle it out machine vs machine. Setsuna had been watching a real-life Mechagodzilla show up and throw down against another machine. "This is the coolest thing I have ever seen." Setsuna was so engrossed she was not paying any attention to anyone else in the room. When it let out a triumphal roar she nearly fell to pieces (literally). She was sure she was going to need a new set of panties before this exam was over. Setsuna looked over at the nurse and remembered that she said that was her son. 'Wonder if I can get her to introduce me to him?' she wondered to herself before returning her attention to the screen
Momo was in awe of seeing this battle of the titans and after the Zero Pointer fell she smiled and made a note to see if this boy would be a future classmate to ask him a few dozen questions. She was broken from her musing when she noticed something on the screen. The remaining Zero Pointers had begun to move towards him. "Oh no," Momo muttered. She wondered how the boy was going to get out of this or if his machine was capable of taking on 3 more opponents at the same time.
The Teachers in the room watched in awe at the Dragonzord arrival and even more when he went toe to toe and came out on top. Power loader was crying at his work of art being destroyed. Before anyone else could celebrate they noticed the other Zero Pointer moving towards the Dragonzord. "Uh oh." Power Loader said his hands flying over the keyboard. "The fallen Zero Pointer is calling the others to assist him for a 3rd-year fight. I can't override it." The adults in the room were prepared to move in.
In the back corner stood a pale skin and-bones man with long blond hair. He had been watching from the beginning just keeping back to observe. 'How you going to beat the odds again kid.' All Might wondered. He crossed his arms and continued to watch the screen ready to act if needed.
Testing Area
Izuku watched them approach at a slow, but steady pace. "DECA, scan the area for any stragglers and prepare the Zord Teleporter again please," Izuku said adjusting the Dragonzord in front of the students behind him in case one of the Zero Pointer attacked. He noticed that he was halfway through its power. It was powerful but burned through power fast. He was going to go big or go home.
"Scan shows the area is free of civilians and teleporter is awaiting your orders Izuku," DECA replied as Izuku let out a sigh of relief.
"I need Dinosaur Power now!" Izuku called out to summon more Zords to his side. 5 additional Zords were teleported in front of Izuku. The Red Tyrannosaurs, Black Mastodon, Blue Triceratops, Yellow Sabretooth Tiger, and the Pink Pterodactyl flew large loops around the area to stay airborne. "Alright DECA bring them together to form the Megazord!"
“Affirmative.”
(Go Go Power Rangers OST)
Each Zord let out a call before starting to combine into the Megazord Tank mode. As the Zords combined a mechanical voice filtered into Izuku communicator “Megazord Sequence Activation Initiated.” The Pterodactyl flew off its back and did a strafing run against the Zero Pointers before turning back to the other Zords. The Megazord slowly started to rise to two legs standing tall. As the Pterodactyl started its docking sequence by folding in its head and wings. The Tyrannosaurs head folded into the chest revealing a robot head. As the docking completed two horns unfolded and locked into place. “Megazord Activated!”
The Megazord stood tall and held the Mastodon shield in its left hand. Izuku removed his crystal returning his Zord controls to the Dragon dagger before he jumped out of the cockpit and jumped onto the Megazord before taking control in the center seat. "Alright let's finish this!" He drew the Dragon Dagger and gave its command to have the Dragonzord battle another of the Zero Pointers before he moved the Megazord towards a different one "Power Sword!" A double-bladed silver sword appeared in the Megazord's right hand. Izuku moved the Megazord forward and went on the assault. He used the shield to deflect the incoming blows from the Zero Pointer and moved into slashing into its armor. After cutting off an arm at the elbow joint Izuku drew the sword back and charged it up: “Power Slash!” He swung downward bisecting it in half from shoulder to hip. Izuku looked over to see the Dragonzord had finished off another one with its drill through the center taking out its power system and sending it to the ground in a crumpled heap.
Izuku turned to the last one and issued his last command "Dragonzord Combine to form Mega Dragonzord!" The Dragonzord's 5 lights lit up on its chest and they separated from the center. The Dragonzord split in half up to its shoulders and docked on the Megazord as its shoulders folded down and its horns folded back behind its head. As the Zords docked the Megazord's eye began to glow red. "Time for the Big Finale!" Izuku called out and began charging up a large ball of green energy. "Full Power Mega Dragonzord Blast!” and send it at the last remaining Zero Pointer leaving nothing behind but melting slag.
"Oh oops, I may have gone a little too overboard," Izuku said with a nervous chuckle after looking at the remains of the Zero Pointer. "Hopefully Powerloader will forgive me someday." Izuku moved to the top of the Zord and jumped down to a nearby Roof "DECA thank you for your assistance. You can teleport the Zords back now." After receiving her acknowledgment, the Mega Dragonzord was teleported out leaving nothing but destroyed robots as proof that they were even here. “Now I think I should go check on Ochako and the others to make sure they are doing OK.”
In the UA Viewing Room.
The Staff stood in complete silence except for the heavy crying of Power Loader over his destroyed Zero Pointers. As the Zords disappeared Nezu started to laugh maniacally at this display of power and awe with the appearance of the Zords. He had known about the Zords from his conversations with DECA and that Izuku had been taking special lessons in a Simulator at the Command Canter to properly use them. He was proud of his student for taking them down with precision and planning. "This year is going to be so much fun," Nezu said to the room and he leaned back in his chair with a large smile on his face.
Inko had let out a sigh of relief when it was all over and watched her son exit his Zords and land safely on a roof. She couldn't help, but smile with pride and remind herself to have a conversation with him about causing her to worry. She saw the looks the other girls shared when he saved the brown-haired girl and knew that they were going to get him teased mercilessly. She wondered if she should expect to get a grandbaby to spoil in the distant future. She did feel sorry for any girls wanting to get close to him with 4 adopted sisters that were also Pro Heroines and very protective of him.
Miruko was cheering loudly and wanted to challenge him to fight after he had a few days to rest. She was proud to see him use those kicks of hers earlier and wanted to remind herself to get him for an internship before anyone else saw her adopted brother in action. She was the cool sister after all who taught him how to fight with his powerful kicks and didn't like to tell him not to do something. That was a job for Inko, Ryuko, Yu, and Nemuri. She wondered if he would be game to go watch a few MMA fights for some sibling bonding time. Also, she wanted to offer an Internship with him as soon as possible.
Ryukyu was impressed to see Izuku in action. She watched as he blew through the exam from start to finish and couldn't wait to congratulate him. She wanted to try and get him into an internship with her since she hadn't gotten the chance to train him before the exams with his busy schedule and maybe it would calm her intern Nejire down to have someone close to her age to talk to. She almost felt bad about having Nejire meet Izuku, but better him than herself to be asking a thousand questions. Now she had to find a way to do that without Miruko finding out and trying to do the same.
Yu had been Izuku's loudest supporter cheering him on about how awesome he taking down those machines and leaving nothing but molten scrap metal. She didn't see what Power Loader was so upset about, but Yu was certain he was being overdramatic over his toys. She watched him exit his Zord and move toward the other students mostly like to check up on the cute girl he saved. Yu was going to tease him badly for being a knight in shining armor and rescuing a cute girl from the dangerous Zero Pointer. She was thinking of a way to slip in an Internship request to Nezu without the other girls knowing about it. She wanted to spend some time with her brother while mentoring Izuku in the process and maybe he would let her ride in one of his Zords.
Nemuri made sure Inko was ok after her near panic attack from watching Izuku go running towards the Zero Pointer. She was glad to see him shine above the rest of the other candidates. She watched in awe of his control and display of power from his Zords. There was not much need for those most days due to not that many villains could grow to that size, but maybe useful for natural disasters to rescue operations. He could be one of the greatest heroes ever to graduate from the Halls of UA. She took out her phone and looked at the photo she had taken of his first rescue. She planned on getting a better copy for later, but this would do for now. Nemuri noticed how red-faced the girl was with him carrying her in a bridal carry. She thought to have a little fun sending the girl a copy and maybe use it in her art classes in one form or another. She was looking forward to making them both blush for her amusement. Now she needed to slip an Internship request into Nezu's desk for after the Sporting Festival and have him be mentored under her to have some quality with her brother. Now how to go about it without anyone else finding out.
Momo was at a loss for words about what she had just witnessed. She had watched him summon these incredible machines and they combined to make a fighting robot-like in some of the Anime or Manga she had read. He was good and hours of practice could be seen in how naturally he moved in his fights. She wanted nothing more than to sit down with him and talk about how he was able to do that by changing his tactics on the fly so easily. 'I wonder what he's like?" she wondered to herself as saw him be heroic, kind, gentle when he saved that girl and took her to safety. She thought about what it would be like to be in her place and cleared herself of those thoughts before she started blushing too hard before anyone saw her. 'This is what I get for reading those romance novels.' She watched as the adults slowly started to regain their senses. "Hey, Setsuna." Momo looked over and saw her friend was practically catatonic.
Setsuna was lost in her own little world as soon as the other Zords showed up. She watched this magnificent machine look like her favorite dinosaur the Tyrannosaurs and when it let out a roar she couldn't take her eyes off of it. 'He controls dinosaurs!' she practically screamed in her mind and she wanted to get to know this guy even more now. Maybe if she was nice, he could show her those Zords and maybe even take her for a ride in one. She looked over at Nurse Inko and without acknowledging Momo she walked over and politely tapped her on the shoulder. "Excuse me Miss, but you said that boy in the green suit was your son?" She asked politely as Inko turned to acknowledge her. The Heroines nearby looked over at her was a cautious eye. Setsuna didn't register that but waited politely on Inko to respond.
"Yes, that is my Son his name is Izuku," Inko replied with a smile and had a pretty good idea of what she wanted, but decided to let the girl ask it anyway.
"Hello Ma'am, my name is Setsuna Tokage," Setsuna said with a bow. "Would it be possible for me to meet your son?" Setsuna stood back up and tried not to fidget as Inko looked her over. "I wanted to ask him a few questions about the amazing robots he used in the exam. If that would be alright?"
Inko nodded "I will be meeting after the exam near the Main Gate if you would like to speak with him then." Inko watched the girl's eyes sparkle with delight as she nodded happily. Inko gave the girl a kind smile as she started to bounce on her toes in pure joy.
"Sweet! Thank you Miss Midoriya, I am looking forward to meeting him." She said quickly giving Inko another bow and returning to her friends bouncing with each footstep. Telling her friends that she was going to get to meet him caused her friend to chuckle at her antics.
Inko watched her walk away and smirked 'well Izuku your brown hair friend may have some competition.' She thought to herself and looked at her four daughters. They seemed to have the same thought about it. All 5 women were interrupted when they heard two male teachers call out.
"Dibs on having Izuku in my class!" Shouta and Vlad King called at the same time. Everyone looked to see them staring hard at each other. Both were showing no signs of backing down from their request for Izuku class placement.
"No way Shouta, I know you plan to take a student like Bakugo with a flashy and powerful quirk as one of your students. I want Izuku for my class giving us each a powerhouse of our own." Vlad Kind was not about to let this kid pass him by because Shouta wanted another flashy student. "It would put too much power in 1-A, and that would not be fair to 1-B." Vlad King crossed his arm and set his jaw not backing down from Shouta's hard gaze focused on him.
"Fine. You take Bakugo for class 1-B and I will take Izuku for Class 1-A to keep it fair." Shouta replied not backing down either since he had put a lot of time and effort into Izuku training and was not about to let someone else take him. In reality, he didn't even want to consider Bakugo for his class with the history with Izuku, and watching Bakugo during the exam didn't change his mind one bit.
"No way," Vlad responded "Why would I want a hamburger when I could have Steak." Vlad pointed to the screen. “I am calling him for my class and I am not backing down.” Vlad knew a gem like that kid came once in a lifetime and He not going to let it slip by just because Shouta only took the flashy students.
Neither man was giving the other an inch and it was raising the tension of the room very high. For a few moments, the other teachers were afraid it was going to come to blows. Until Nezu cleared his throat. "Gentleman we can have this discussion in my office later after we tally up all the scores and I am sure we can come to an arrangement that will make both parties happy." Both men nodded and moved back away from each other. "Now, Present Mic please end the exam and have Recovery Girl and Inko head down to treat injuries."
Inko waved at Setsuna and follow behind Recovery Girl heading to the Training area. Setsuna grabbed Momo by the wrist and pulled her towards the entrance of UA to meet the boy in the green suit.
Testing Area
“The Exam is Over Little Listeners! Please make your way towards the bus to see the Medical staff if needed.” Present Mic called out over the PA.
Izuku walked towards everyone at a casual pace and found Ochako still being held by the boy with blue hair surrounded by the other students looking at him in awe. As he approached some of them broke out of their stupor and headed towards the exit not sure had to react to him.
"Ah, I was hoping you were being seen by the medical staff, but I must have gotten everyone's attention," Izuku said with a chuckle. He realized that he was still morphed and touched his Morpher. "Power down." And returned to his civilian form. "I can take her if you still need a minute." When the boy didn't react, he took Ochako back into his arms with a slight jostle and that snapped her out of her and flushed red.
"Izuku, what was that?" Ochako asked finally finding her voice as she tried to blush again at being held against his chest again and trying not to think about his developed arm holding her. "I was so scared you were going to get hurt and then you summoned, what did you call it?" She asked as she looked at him for the answer as he carried her to the exit.
"A Zord." He replied with a smile.
"Right a Zord.” Ochako continued “and next thing I see is you summon more and then decimate 4 Zero Pointers like it was nothing." Ochako realized she was ranting and flushed red. "Sorry, I don't mean to question you so much since you saved me and everything, but I was scared that my new friend was going to get hurt." She said softly with that last bit. She thought her heart was going to beat out of her chest with how fast it was beating. She felt like her face was burning from the blush on her face.
Izuku chuckled with a slight smile at her. "It's fine, I am sure that everyone here wants to know what I did." Izuku saw Recovery Girl and Inko finished up a few cuts and scrapes and move toward him. "It is a bit of a long story and telling you it will take longer than we have today." Izuku looked her in the eyes. "Maybe we can find some time for me to tell you all about it?"
Ochako gave him a bright smile "I'd like that thank you Izuku." She felt safe and warm in his arms and was not in any hurry for it to end anytime soon. She snuggled slightly closer into his chest listening to his heart beating seemed to soothe her.
Notes:
Hope this chapter came out alright with enough nostalgia and fun. I added a bit of fluff near the end.
Chapter 5: Chapter 5: New Friends and Protective Sisters
Summary:
Izuku makes new friends and his sister get very protective of him. Izuku is punished for worrying his mother.
(Edited on 12/25/21)
Notes:
Well Chapter 5 is here. I wrote chapters 1-5 over the last few weeks and finally had the courage to post them. I am currently working on the next chapter.
Chapter Text
When they arrived at the Medical area Ochako had to suppress a whimper as she was set on the table by Izuku and was immediately looked at by Recovery Girl. Ochako watched as Izuku was hugged forcefully by the other nurse and when she heard Izuku call her Mom, it all made sense to her.
Recovery Girl told her that it was not broken and used her quirk to heal her right away. Afterward, she felt incredibly tired and almost fell asleep until she was given some gummies that helped her not feel quite so tired. Ochako watched in amusement as Izuku's mom fussed over him before she calmed down and warned him about giving her a scare like that again anytime soon.
Izuku apologized to his mother and she told him to wait for her at the Main Gate while she finished up here. Izuku kissed his mother on the cheek and headed to his locker to get his phone and jacket. When he came back he found Ochako was waiting for him near the door.
"Hey, do you want to walk to the gate with me?" Izuku asked with a kind smile. He was feeling a bit tired from the Ranger changes and summoning 6 Zords and two Megazord combinations. He was going to need a nice meal and a good night's rest to be 100%. He knew waiting for the results was going to be brutal for him, but he asked to be treated like everyone else and he was going to stick to it even if it drove him crazy.
Ochako nodded and gave him a big smile in return. “Sure, maybe we can find Kyoka and hang out before your Mom comes to meet you?” Ochako said hoping to get to hang out with him a bit more. She only knew Kyoka and was looking forward to making another friend. She looked at his green jacket and had to admit it was pretty cool and matched his Green hair and eyes. She was sad to see him put the jacket on since it covered up his muscular arms. She fell in step beside Izuku and walked towards the bus to take them back to the main building.
During their ride back, they talked about favorite heroes and movies. They geeked out over the rescue hero Thirteen and Ochako went on a mini-rant about Thirteen's history and impressive rescue record. She was slightly embarrassed about gushing over her favorite hero until Izuku showed her his notebook and told her he understood her excitement. She felt better and could not suppress a smile at his kind-hearted gesture to make others smile.
Before they knew it, the bus had arrived at the drop-off point and they walked toward the Main Gate where they saw Kyoka listening to music with an ear jack plugged into her phone. She was bobbing her head along to the beat of her music. She seemed unharmed, if not a little tired, and leaned against the entrance. When she noticed them getting close to her, she tapped her phone a few times before disconnecting her jack from her phone. "I am going to go out on a limb and say that the giant robots battling it out were your fault their Izuku?" Kyoka asked quirking an eyebrow and crossing her arms.
Izuku gave a small chuckle "Yeah I went a little overboard at the end there, but it was for a good reason you see-. "Izuku started, but Ochako jumped in with the excitement of a child on Christmas morning.
"I was trapped under some rubble and he saved me before calling that Dragon-looking Zord and putting the smackdown on it." She made a lot of punching and stomping gestures. "Then when the others came he called more and went toe to toe with them and blew them to pieces!" Ochako got more and more excited about the battle and got even more animated almost hitting Kyoka and Izuku a few times with her hands.
Izuku look at Kyoka and she gave him a sly smile before whispering "She gets like this when she is excited." And smirked as she didn't even register their conversation and kept talking until she finished her tale and noticed them smiling at her and she got embarrassed at her actions.
"Sorry I got over-excited again." She said her face blushing red and covering her face with her hands activating her quirk and started to float away until Kyoka used her jacks to pull her back to the ground. It took a few minutes for her to calm down. Ochako touched her hands together and returned to the ground. "I didn't mean to steal your thunder just now Izuku, I'm so sorry." She gave a small pout and tapped her pointer fingers together.
Izuku smiled at her and gently patted her shoulder. "It's ok Ochako, I promise," He waited for her to look up and almost blushed at how cute she looked. "I'm not upset and I think you did a good job making it more excited than I could have told it."
She brightened a bit but kept herself calm. They talked for a few minutes about what they thought about the exams when they heard someone call out for him. All three looked in the direction of the person shouting.
"Oi! Are you Izuku Midoriya!" A green-haired girl called out dragging a dark-haired girl behind her in a dead sprint. When they got there the green-haired girl caught her breath. That is, you right?"
Izuku looked at the girl and could tell she was about his age and was wearing a uniform from a private school from the patch on the jacket. Her dark-haired friend had a matching uniform and was trying to catch her breath. "Yes, I am Izuku Midoriya." He answered politely "Who might you two be?"
Setsuna caught her breath and stood up straight. "My name is Setsuna Tokage and this is my best friend Momo Yaoyorozu." Setsuna pointed to her friend that had caught her breath and stood up straight before extending her hand. Izuku shook her hand before returning her attention to Setsuna and offered his hand. She took it with a grin. "We watched you during the exam and I wanted to meet the boy who could call robotic dinosaurs that decimated the most advance robots at UA." She kept a hold of his hand and had to admit to herself that he was kind of cute and looked awesome in that jacket.
"Oh well, uh pleasure to meet you Tokage, Yaoyorozu," Izuku said a little nervous about Setsuna she had yet to let go of his hand and she looked excited to meet him for some reason. "This is Ochako Uraraka and Kyoka Jirou. I met them today before the 2nd part started and I was in the same area as Ochako.”
Setsuna gave him a smirk "Oh I am aware of her being in the same area as you, Momo, and I watched you swoop in to save her like her personal knight in shining red and black armor." Both Izuku and Ochako blushed at this. Kyoka looked interested in this new development. "Although, I prefer the green and gold myself."
"Oh, Really now?" Kyoka asked in a teasing tone towards her friend and moved closer to the green-haired girl. "I hope you have a photo of this?" Kyoko looked at Ochako who had a look of betrayal on her face. Kyoka gave her a sympathetic shrug but was not passing up on good blackmail material on her good friend, especially since it involved a boy.
“Oh, I do," Setsuna took out her phone and showed all three of them the picture. "She looked pretty comfortable in his arms if you ask me," Setsuna said laughing at the two in question getting flustered and embarrassed from said photo.
Ochako took a moment to compose herself. “Can you send me a copy of that picture please?” She asked not being able to look at Izuku who was still trying to process this development.
He hadn’t thought about it at the time, but he held a cute girl like that. ‘Oh god please don’t let my sisters have seen this or I will never hear the end of it.’ He thought to himself as we watched Ochako and Setsuna exchange numbers and get a ping on her phone. ‘Oh god, Mom was there and saw this!' Izuku knew she was going to tease him worse than his sister about this.
While that was going on Momo approached him “I will apologize for my friend, she can be a real handful when she gets excited.” She pointed in the direction of Ochako and Kyoka that were standing beside her as she showed them pictures on her phone. “She has been in love with dinosaurs since she was a child and when her quirk activated she grew to love them even more.” Momo could hear her gushing over the pictures she took of the machines. "If I may ask what are those machines called?”
"Oh, those are called Zords." I can summon them when I need them, but it takes a lot of energy to do so." Izuku could tell she was interested in them and he had told Ochako what they were. "There are a variety of cars, animals, dinosaurs, and so on." Izuku could see her mind beginning to process that information. "If you would like we can talk about it more, while our friends are looking at pictures. Momo and Izuku started talking about the basics of the Zords and with each question they got deeper into the analysis of a few of them and had been talking for almost 10 minutes before they realized that their friends had gone quiet. They looked over to see all three of them smiling at them. Izuku and Momo tilted their head to the side in confusion.
'Ok, that is just adorable for these two innocent nerds are completely unaware of the rest of the world.’ Ochako, Setsuna, and Kyoka thought at the same time.
Kyoko was the first to break the silence. "Oh, please don't stop on our account, please continue your discussion it is completely adorable even if I can't completely understand it all." Izuku and Momo blushed at this and Setsuna laughed at her friend and Ochako began to giggle at their antics.
Ochako decided to take pity on the two of them "Oh, how about we all exchange numbers so we can talk or hang out before we get our results." Ochako thought this would be the easiest way to get Izuku's number and she could get 2 new friends out of the deal. Everyone agreed and after everyone had exchanged numbers Momo created a group chat for them to all stay in touch will as well. “I just remembered how did you two get to watch us take our exams?” Ochako asked out of curiosity.
Setsuna gave them a proud smirk. "Well, Me and Momo took the Recommendation Entrance Exams and passed with flying colors for our acceptance in UA."
"Momo and I." Momo corrected her friend mostly out of habit. Momo was positive that Setsuna did it on purpose just to annoy her with improper grammar usage.
"Whatever," Setsuna replied with a shrug of her shoulders after being corrected by her friend for the umpteenth time. "So, Principal Nezu asked us if we would like to watch your guy's exam and we both accepted."
Izuku's eyes lit up like the stars in the sky. "Wow, you must have amazing quirks and well trained to have been Recommended, students!" Izuku exclaimed with excitement. "What are your quirks if that is not too personal?" He looked like an innocent bunny asking questions with such excitement.
Momo and Setsuna couldn’t refuse after seeing his face and told him how Momo quirk Creation allowed her to make anything with her lipids if she knew how they were made, but the larger the object the longer it took to create. Setsuna separated her head and talked with Izuku showing how her quirk Lizard Tail Splitter allowed her to split her body and control her parts telekinetically, but after they get too away from her she would lose control of what part is separated and then has to regrow it.
Izuku had his notebook out in a flash and was writing down notes and muttering to himself as he did it. Momo was able to keep up with him and understand most of it. The other three were lost and how he went off into his little world of muttering. Setsuna tapped his head with a detached pointer finger and snapped him out of it.
"Oh, I'm sorry I get excited about quirks and I can get kind of wrapped up in my old little work as I analyze them." He bowed his head and looked like a kicked puppy. They all have the similar thought to hug him to make him smile again.
“It's ok Green Bean to be passionate about something. Don’t feel bad I probably do the same with music and lyrics.” Kyoka said wanted to pat him on the head, but restrained herself. “It’s OK we promise." The other girls nodded in an agreement that made him smile again almost blinding them with how bright it is.
‘So precious must protect the green bunny from the world and destroy all who threaten the bunny.” All fours thought at the same time.
“Wait Green Bean?” Izuku asked in confusion at the nickname.
Kyoka pointed to his hair and jacket “You wear all green, thin and tall, hence a Green Bean.” Izuku knew that it was going to stick with her until she got bored of it or found a new one to annoy him with
"I can't get you to change it can I?" Izuku said with a defeated voice when he saw her smirk. "Well, that is not the worst thing I have been called." He remembered all the names kids called him in school and this was a lot better than anything from his past. 'Trash, worthless, Deku.' Izuku pushed those thoughts back into his mind.
Momo seemed to realize something “Izuku, May I ask what your quirk is?” Momo had realized that she knew what everyone else quirks were, but Izuku hasn't talked about his. She could tell he had tensed up slightly but relaxed after making a big decision.
Izuku took a deep breath "Well it would be easier to show you all and will make it easier to explain everything." Izuku had hesitated for a moment then stood by his decision based on his gut instincts. "Do you guys know where Takoba Beach is?" Ochako, Kyoka, Momo, and Setsuna nodded hearing about the trash-covered beach that had been cleaned up by a Good Samaritan over the last 10 months. Now making it a popular spot for watching the sunset with couples. "Can you guys meet me there at 10 am tomorrow?"
“Sure!” Ochako agreed excitedly. She wanted to see him use his quirk again where she could see it up close. She wanted to find a way to thank him for saving her from being crushed by the Zero Pointer. She also wanted to go see the beach and walk on the sand for the first time since she came from the country.
"Well, I got nothing planned so sure count me in," Kyoka said trying to sound casual about it, but was very curious about it how he was able to have a giant robot battle and she wanted to go with her friend to see these things up close as well.
"I am free as well Izuku and would love to meet everyone at the beach," Momo said giving him a kind smile. She wanted to see his quirk up close up and maybe find a way to help her improve her creation time or even how to think better on the fly. Also, she wanted to have a closer look at the Zords and maybe get to ride in one if she was really lucky.
“So, if I meet you tomorrow at the beach, you will show me those beautiful dinosaur Zords and your quirk?” Setsuna asked making sure she was going to see those beauties again or die trying. She also wanted to see if she could make him blush so hard to make him look like a tomato would just be icing on the cake. She liked to tease and wanted to see what it took to make him blush as a challenge for herself.
Izuku thought for a moment and gave her a shrug. "I suppose something can be arranged if you want to see them tomorrow." Izuku didn't see it as a big deal since they saw them today. Izuku was nearly knocked to the ground as Setsuna rushed him and pulled his face into her chest causing him to mirror a tomato. Around Setsuna, the other girls all reacted differently. Momo let out a sigh at her friend's antics and felt something she didn't understand in her chest. Kyoka's eye twitched slightly, but she wasn't sure why it bothered her, and Ochako felt a pit form in her stomach and almost growled at the other girl's antics.
As she let him up from her chest she leaned in close to his ear and whispered. "If I see those beauties that I saw today I will give you a kiss that will curl your toes Izu." She finished it off by blowing air near his ear. This made him blush harder and his brain stopped working. Kyoka heard what she said and blushed slightly at how forward she was being towards Izuku.
Izuku.exe has stopped responding. Reboot in process.
Setsuna started to laugh at her handy work until she felt someone pick her up from behind by her shirt collar. She watched the eyes of the other girls go wide before turning around to Midnight, Mt. Lady. Ryukyu, and Miruko, who was holding her by her collar. All 4 had a stern look on their face. Inko was standing behind them with a small smirk on her face at the young girl's antics.
“Mind telling me what you said to my little brother?” Miruko said giving her a feral expression on her face showing no mercy. Miruko was not very tall, but she was muscular and an amazing fighter especially with her legendary kicks.
This made Setsuna swallow hard at the fact she was being held by Miruko one of the powerful Heroines of her time and she teased her brother, who was now a blushing mess. Setsuna was sure that those ears were not for show and was pretty sure she heard what she had just said. Setsuna was making sure she didn't fall to pieces out of fear. "It was just a joke I swear." She was all for fun and games, but she knew when the joke was over. "Mercy?" Setsuna asked in a small voice. Miruko shook her head 'no' as the other 3 crossed their arms and held a similar glare.
Momo wanted to help her friend, but it was she was not crazy or had a death wish. Hopefully, this would curb her friends' impulsive behavior. On second thought it probably wouldn't Setsuna would see this a as challenge and continue doing this until she got caught again.
Izuku had finally snapped out of his reboot and saw what was going on. He was sure that Rumi had heard what she said and was trying to teach her a lesson. He walked over "It's ok Sis," Izuku stated patting his sister's wrist. "I am sure she was just joking and didn't mean anything by it." Izuku watched as Rumi let out a sigh at his kind gentle heart and lowered the girl to the ground before crossing her arms. "Everyone, this is my Mother, and these are my Big Sisters," Izuku pointed to them and they gave the girls a polite wave. "Mom, Ryukyu, Miruko, Midnight, Mt. Lady, please meet my new friends that I met today. Momo Yaoyorozu, Setsuna Tokage, Kyoka Jirou, and Ochako Uraraka." The girls bowed and gave them a wave in return at the 4 intimidating Pro Heroines and the smiling mother of their new friend.
"Hello Pleasure to meet you all," Inko said giving them a slight nod of her head. "I am so happy that my son has made some nice friends here at UA." Inko watched as Izuku rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment. "I am sorry to interrupt your time with your new friends Izuku, but our dinner reservations are soon and we need to get home and get changed for it.
Izuku looked at his phone and realized how late it had gotten "Oh shoot, sorry everyone, but I have to leave with mom or we are going to be late." Izuku gave them a small wave as he walked over to her. "I guess I will so you guys tomorrow?" Izuku had hoped they were too intimidated to change their minds.
All the girls understood and had to leave as well to make sure they got home soon as well. They all agreed to meet up tomorrow and departed in pairs. Setsuna kept looking over her shoulder as Miruko followed her as she left the gate. "Well, they seemed nice," Inko said as she threw an arm around his shoulder leading him away from the school. "You need to invite them over some time, so I can get to know your friends better."
Inko watched as Miruko whispered something in the ears of the other girls and saw her mouth 'Tell you later.' Inko nodded and went back to talking to her son.
"I am very proud of you Izuku, you saved that girl and made a splash at the exams." Izuku smiled brightly until he saw her give him a hard look "if you ever do something so reckless again and cause me to nearly pass out in fear again. I promise I will find your most embarrassing baby picture I have and plaster it all over the school for everyone to see. Am I clear?" Izuku nodded and cowered away from his mother. Inko immediately brightened "Good now let's get you home and showered before we miss our reservation. Izuku knew that everyone thought his mother was harmless, but she was scarier than most villains when she was angry or even upset. "Alright girls see you at the restaurant in a bit?" she called over her shoulder as they gave their confirmations.
As Inko and Izuku left to go home and change their clothes. Miruko looked at her sisters “I heard the green lizard say she was going to kiss him tomorrow.” She clenched and unclenched her fists in annoyance. “I have no plans so I am going to chaperone this little event.” She wanted to see her little brother happy, but this girl was a little too handsy for her liking. She would never admit it, but she was protective of him getting hurt by some girl. Miruko knew she could be abrasive and rough around the edges most of the time, but she had soft spot for Inko and Izuku.
They arrived shortly after Momo and Setsuna reached Izuku and started talking to them. They watched their adorable little brother talk nerd shop with Momo and how he had gotten uncomfortable when they asked him about his quirk. Nemuri almost interceded, but Inko asked her to wait. They heard him offer to explain it at the beach meaning he was most likely taking them to the Command Center for an easier explanation. They were content to let him gain some new friends and had planned to get their attention, but that when out the window when Setsuna shove his face into her chest and whispered about kissing him. Miruko had heard it and put a stop to it before she made him any more uncomfortable. Everyone else decided it was best to make their presence known. The other three agreed to help her since they were off tomorrow before having to make up for the patrols they had missed and wanted to see this as well. They sent Inko a message as to what they had discussed and that she should join them as well.
Inko had gone through the shower first and had gotten ready in a nice casual attire for the restaurant. She saw a message from the girls in their private chat group about what Rumi had heard about the girl's plans for tomorrow at the beach and what they were sure Izuku had planned to show them. Inko thought about it for a second and agreed to go since she was off as well since it had been years since she had gone to the beach. She also had an interesting thought and discussed it with her daughters and laughed at their agreement with her idea for after dinner tonight. Izuku should know better than to worry his dear mother.
The celebration had been a fun time for Izuku. It had been a nice dinner of his favorite foods and even though he had not received his final score yet, they were sure he had passed by a wide margin. Nezu and Shouta had made a short appearance before having other obligations. Shouta gave him a little praise and left before anyone could give him too much grief about being human or that Izuku was his favorite. Nezu left with Shouta telling Izuku to await his letter in the mail and was gone. As the evening started to wind down. Nemuri was the first to tease him about being the knight in shining armor for Ochako. It wasn't long before Izuku laid his head down on the table unable to hide his blush as all 5 women in his life had the photo and made sure to hold it over his head for the rest of the dinner. Eventually, they let up on him and congratulated him on his hard work. Izuku got embarrassed at their praise and knew if he tried to hide his face Rumi and Nemuri would make it worse. After this meal, they decided to visit Inko and Izuku before calling it a night. The ride back was full of life and laughter. Izuku couldn't help but smile at the craziness that was his family. It would soon be a year since they all came together and he wouldn't trade it for all the money in the world.
When they arrived home Izuku and Inko went to change out of their dinner attire for more comfortable clothing. Izuku's room was completely different from before the slime incident. His room that once was full of All Might memorabilia was reduced to a few truly rare pieces maybe 5% of his collection was left. He sold most of it and made a nice chunk of change from it. He had replaced the other 95% of his room with memorabilia from his sisters and Eraserhead. He looked over at the pictures on his desk filled with his mother and sisters and smiled. He had no pictures of his birth father and preferred to pretend he didn't exist. Izuku remembered the day his dad left and went to the US. He sent his mother divorce papers and signed away his parental rights to Izuku without a fight. He had refused to pay any child support and Inko had been fine with it. She had been his sole parent for the last 11 years and she was the only parent he needed.
When he finished changing and came back into the living room he knew something was wrong. And then he made the mistake of getting closer and realized too late it was a trap. He recognized a certain DVD case from his time when he received the Talk. Izuku tried to run but was caught by Rumi and Ryuko. They frog-marched him to the couch and watched in horror as his mother put in the disk reader. Nemuri and Yu stood beside Inko and grinned along with the other two.
"Since you have those 4 young ladies as your new friends, we figured you could use a refresher course on sex education and all that goes with it," Inko said in a calm voice.
"I need an adult," Izuku said trying to get free, but it was useless as Rumi and Ryuko were a lot stronger than him.
Nemuri smiled at his attempt. “What a coincident we are all adults.” Gesturing to everyone in the room.
Izuku was getting desperate “I need a hero.” He said weakly before realizing the same problem as soon as he said it.
“We are heroes.” Nemuri, Yu, Rumi. And Ryuko said simultaneously.
Izuku stopped struggling knowing it would make this worse. He hoped he would be able to look them in the face tomorrow and not die from embarrassment. He looked down to see bananas and a box of Condoms. 'Oh god, please take me now.' were as last thoughts as his mother hit the Play button on the remote.

Izuku introduces his friends to the Command Center and They have a day at the beach.

Chapter Text
Izuku groaned as his alarm went off the following morning. He had slept somewhat decent, but dreams of a hormonal teen made him groggy when he first got up that morning. He looked at his clock to see it was 6 am. He was normally up at 530am to work out, but since he was meeting his friends in a few hours he decided to get changed and go for a run to finish clearing his mind of his naughty dreams. He finished his run at his normal pace and took a shower when he got back to the apartment. When he got out of the shower his mother was just about finished making breakfast.
“Morning dear, did you have a good run this morning?” Inko asked putting the final touches on their breakfast. She held a small smirk on her face at how he was acting this morning.
Izuku poured two glasses of juice before setting the table with plates and utensils. "Yeah, it was fine wanted to get it in before it got too late in the morning." He was still recovering from his punishment from the night before. 'I hoped he never had to go through that again.' Izuku thought to himself. He had never been so embarrassed in his life and his sister had not helped much as they had given him some tips and pointers while he was taught by Nemuri on how to put on a condom on a banana. Dear god, it was so embarrassing that he had to take an ice-cold shower to stop his face from burning from his blushing. He was certain that steam had poured off his face. He had gotten a few messages last night and answered them being glad they couldn’t see his face at that moment.
"Thank you for breakfast mom." He dug into his breakfast and savored the greatness that was her cooking. He had changed up his diet slightly when he was training for UA and his mother made sure he had a good meal and made it taste amazing making it easier to stick to. "Are you still planning on coming with me today?" Izuku asked wanting to know when she suggested it the night before.
"Yes, I will pack a picnic lunch for everyone to enjoy and I can get to know your new friends along with your sisters," Inko replied giving him a kind smile. "I was worried about you being alone when school started, but now I know you will have some friends by your side." Inko reached over and gently held her son's hand.
Izuku smiled at her. "Thanks, I couldn't ask for a better mother in the entire world." Izuku stood up and kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you for supporting me these last 10 months. I couldn't have don't it without your love and support. Izuku gave her a tight hug. Mother and Son held each other for a few minutes before moving apart.
"Now go get dressed and you can help me pack our food and drinks." Inko shooed her son away as she wiped the happy tears from her eyes. She messaged the daughters about any food requests for lunch. After getting their replies Inko went to work on packing the basket. Izuku came back in to see the packed cooler filled with a variety of drinks and waters for them. Everything was packed in the picnic basket and ready with time to spare.
Izuku pulled out his phone and sent a message to their group chat
UA Friend Chat
Green Bunny (Izuku): Hey guys I want to let everyone know that Mom and I packed a basket of food and a cooler full of drinks for us at the beach. If you want to bring anything else please feel free to do so.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Also, really this is my name?
Gravity Girl (Ochako): Aw that is so sweet of you guys and I will bring some snack stuff.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): I didn’t do it, Setsuna did. But I think it’s accurate.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Thanks, Green Bean. I will bring some music for us to listen to.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Yeah, I wasn't me either, but I think it fits you too.
Green Bunny (Izuku): sigh… no escaping it then.
Forge (Momo): That is very much appreciated Izuku for you and your mother to do that for us. I will bring a few beach tents for us to set up so we can get out of the sun if we need to.
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Hey, he is a green bunny and I'm VERY proud that I set his name as such. Also, sweet their Izu about bringing food and drinks with your mom. I was just planning on bringing my swimsuit and a towel.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Swimsuit?
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Really Izu? We are going to a beach and I plan on going swimming. So, bring your suit as well.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): oh, right I guess I will bring mine as well.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): I guess if everyone else is going to I bring mine as well.
Forge (Momo): I was planning on bringing mine as well. I have not been to a beach in a few years and I am looking forward to it.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Ok I guess I will definitely be bringing my suit as well. I have a place where we can all change and shower afterward if needed.
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Oh yeah! Oh, btw are your sisters coming by chance?
Green Bunny (Izuku): Yeah Mom said they were off today and wanted to come as well. It is not a problem, is it?
Forge (Momo): No, it's fine we will see you there.
Green Bunny (Izuku): OK Later Guys.
Green Bunny: (Izuku) has left the chat.
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Momo please remind me to be on my best behavior today. Those girls scare me. Especially Miruko.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): to be fair you did smash their kid brother’s face into your chest and then said you would kiss him if he showed you his Zords.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): WHAT!
Forge (Momo): WHAT! Setsuna!
Dinogirl (Setsuna): How do you know that?!
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): I have exceptional hearing thanks to my quirk remember? So, behave and you should be safe from the big bad Pro Heroines.
Forge (Momo): Sigh, this is going to be a long day.
Izuku put his phone away and grabbed a pair of swim trunks that Yu had gotten him with her hero suit colors and a green beach towel from the closet and tossed it into a bag. "Hey mom the others are going to go swimming afterward are you bringing a swimsuit as well?"
Inko thought for a minute "Yes, let me toss it into your bag if that is ok with you." Izuku nodded and a few minutes later Inko tossed a towel and her suit into the bag. They relaxed until about 10 am and grabbed everything and headed to the beach. It was about a 15-minute walk from their apartment. They enjoyed the nice weather and talked about doing this more often maybe making a trip to the beach a monthly even to relax from the long days at UA. They arrived early and Izuku set up everything near the hidden entrance to the Command Center and waited for everyone to arrive.
A few minutes later Ochako and Kyoka were the first to arrive in casual clothing. Ochako is a pink t-shirt and shorts. Kyoka wore a pair of jean shorts and a dark purple shirt with a band name Deep Dope on the front of it. Ochako carried a small bag of snacks and Kyoka carried a small speaker for them to listen to music. Both had bags slung over their shoulders with the swimwear and towels. Inko greeted the girls and chatted with them a bit while waiting on the others to arrive.
Momo and Setsuna were the next to arrive. Momo was in a nice blue blouse and tan dress shorts. Setsuna was wearing a large red t-shirt with Godzilla on the front and a pair of black shorts. Both were carrying tent bags along with their backpacks. As they got closer Izuku took them and placed them near the cooler. Momo apologized for almost running late. She had been trying to find the tents that were in storage and it took longer to find them than she had expected. Izuku waved it off saying that they were still waiting for his sisters to arrive.
His Sisters arrived not long after Momo and Setsuna. All of them teased Yu for sleeping in and almost making them late. They were in their civilian attire. All wore comfortable clothing and gave Inko and Izuku hugs before introducing themselves to the girls with their real names. After pleasantries had been exchanged. Izuku decide it was time. "Ok, everybody please grab your stuff and follow me." Izuku grabbed the heavy cooler and walked over to the hidden entrance. Izuku pulled his Morpher out of his pocket and held it out in front of him. A metallic hiss was heard as the door slid open revealing a metallic hallway. Izuku turned around and looked at everyone look of surprise. He remembered that he normally teleported people in and out and only went this way when he was cleaning the beach or when he had to let Mei into work.
He walked inside and gestured for them to follow him inside. When they were all inside Izuku closed the door behind him making sure it was locked and walked down the hallway. “For everybody who has not been here before Welcome to the Command Center.” He walked them into the center of the Command Center where he normally teleported in. Izuku watched as his new friends looked around in awe. Momo went straight over to the computers and screens looking them over. Ochako and Kyoka moved towards the display cases of different weapons or gear. Setsuna went over towards the suits and was eyeing the Original Red Ranger suit hanging beside it. His sisters had been here a few times mostly to see him train or just check on him when they had the time. The place still amazed them as it changed little by little over the last 10 months.
"You changed a few things," Rumi said looking around to see it was more decorated and made it feel less eerie to hang around. "I like it."
"Well a little, DECA has been expanding the Command Center and found more stuff to get out of storage for Mei or me to set up." Izuku gestured to the display case on the wall. "If I can get everyone's attention to the central screen here I will try to make this fast." When his friends moved to the screen he was standing next to and waited patiently for him to speak. "Well, you all asked me what my quirk is correct?" Izuku asked watching his new friends give him a nod and looking to see his sister and mother had tensed up slightly. Izuku took a deep breath “I am quirkless.”
Silence filled that Command Center as Izuku got nervous about their reactions. His mind started to tell him that this would be the end of this group of friends. He was prepared for this and was trying not to start shaking.
"Huh?" was their shared reaction. Each looked at the other before looking back at Izuku with confusion on their face.
"Izuku, I watched you at the Exams and used incredible abilities," Momo asked getting over her shock. "How are you quirkless?" Momo had spent the way over to the beach trying to figure out his abilities worked and noted there were several possibilities, but this was not one of her theories.
Izuku let out a sigh. “I was not born with a quirk. When I was 4 years old. I was diagnosed by the doctor as quirkless. My mother can confirm this." The Girls looked to see his mother nodding with a sad expression on her face. "It wasn't until 10 months ago that I was given this." Izuku held up the Master Morpher. "This is what allowed me to save Ochako and to call in the Zords to battle the Zero Pointers.” Izuku watched as this made them more confused than before. He let out a sigh. “DECA can you show them the video of what a Power Ranger is?”
“Yes, it would be my pleasure Izuku," DECA replied with a chipper tone. Inko and his sisters had big smiles on their faces as they knew what his new friends were going to see. DECA introduced herself and immediately Momo's eyes brightened at the prospects of this. The 4 girls watched as the Rangers of different generations were shown to explain what it meant to be a Power Ranger. Their eyes never left the screen until the video was over and they looked back at Izuku with amazement.
"You're a Power Ranger," Kyoka said understanding that he had morphed to take the exams and to call his Zords. "These guys are amazing and they did all this without quirks?" Kyoka was amazed to see how badass they were taking on these monsters and villains.
"Well for the most part. Some Rangers were born with special abilities, but those were few and far in-between. Many were skilled martial artists or have other natural abilities.” Izuku said trying to keep his voice steady. “Each person was selected for a certain skill or ability that would bring the team together to win the fight against evil.”
"A Team of Rangers?" Ochako asked. She had other questions to ask after seeing the Space and Galaxy Rangers, but this was higher on the list at the moment.
"Well, as you can see the Power Rangers are a team of heroes. They are skilled at fighting separately, but as a team, they are unstoppable as you can see from the video." Izuku decided that it was time to pull the band-aid off and see where they stood with his friends. "Well since you guys know the truth, does this change what you all think of me?"
Izuku watched his mother clasp her hands over her chest. He watched his sister's tensing up as well as they waited for them to answer. This had been the part of the day they were nervous about. This was Izuku putting himself out there and seeing what happened when they knew the truth about him. They were ready to step in if this went badly. Nemuri was prepared to stop this if needed for the sake of his mental health.
“Why would we think different of you?” Kyoka asked not understanding the question. “So, you use the Morpher to be a hero. How is that any different from one of us using our quirks?" Kyoka saw it as the same really since he had to switch to using different abilities.
"Kyoka has a point. I mean it is a support device that allows you to supplement your natural abilities." Momo replied watching as he seemed to fidget with what she thought was anxiety.
"Izu did you think we would leave you for not having a quirk?" Setsuna asked incredulously. When he didn't respond she knew she was right on the money. "Dude you called your Zords in to save someone and in the process became the biggest badass to walk the halls of UA." She gave him an honest smile. "Besides I not going anywhere until I see the Dino Zords." She gave him a wink to let him know she was teasing him. Sort of, I mean she wanted to see them, but he was more important.
Izuku was nearly overwhelmed with relief and started to feel better. He felt someone tap his shoulder. He looked up to see Ochako in front of him. He was looking directly into her beautiful brown eyes. 'Wait beautiful where did that come from?” Izuku thought
"Izuku, you saved me from the Zero Pointer when you really didn't have to. You could have run away and left me to the Zero Pointer, but you came stayed, and pulled me from the rubble literally." Ochako gave him a small grin. "I am your friend and you won't get rid of me anytime soon. Understand?"
Izuku couldn’t find his voice, but he nodded at this until he found his voice. “Thank you. All of you for being my friends.”
He was unprepared as Ochako lunged forward and pulled him into a tight hug. Before he could register it, Kyoko moved forward and joined the hug. Momo did the same taking his other side. “Group Hug!” Setsuna shouted before hugging him from behind. They held him for a few minutes to make their friend smile again.
Inko was smiling brightly at her boy having friends that would stick by him. She had been worried as Izuku had been that the girls would abandon them when he found out. These girls were special in her book and if they made him happy that was a bonus for her. She watched and her Daughters were all smiling at the sight as well. They also had their phones out and were taking pictures of this to tease them all later.
"Alright enough with the sappy stuff let's get the tour over with so we can hit the beach," Rumi called out to the group. "Or are you good have 4 pretty girls hanging all over you Izuku." Rumi teased as her brother blushed a dark read. The girls blushed as well and quickly pulled away from the hug. "I thought so."
Izuku motioned to them "Alright let me give you all the tour." He showed them the training room having DECA display for them some of the simulations that he had run through and let a few try a few of the Zord training programs. Ochako had a blast 'piloting' the Astro Megaship with a promise to let her fly real Zord someday. That made Ochako beyond giddy with the chance to fly in a ship space was a dream come true.
Next, he showed them to the Armory where he kept the more dangerous weapons that needed to be locked up for safety purposes. There were a few items they had seen on the videos. He showed them the vehicle bay that had every vehicle you could imagine or need at his disposal or for any future Rangers. Rumi fell in love with a few of the Cycles and had to be dragged away from them by Ryuko. Izuku made a promise to take them to the test track to let them drive the vehicles to their heart's content. They spent the most time at the Zord bay. Everyone looked over the Zords in full wonder and enthusiasm. Ochako went directly for the Megaship and bounced from excitement. Setsuna went to the Dinosaurs Zords and was a kid on Christmas morning. Momo examined a few different Zords along with Kyoka that caught their attention but were amazed nonetheless. The adults had seen the Zords once before, but they were still breathtaking to look at.
Momo was curious as to how there was this much space for all of this. Izuku said it was like the TARDIS it was bigger on the inside. When no one understood his reference. He explained that the Command Center interior was in a slightly different dimension that allowed for it to be bigger on the inside. Almost everyone seemed to accept that, except Momo who struggled to accept it as it wasn't scientifically possible. Eventually, she gave up and just accepted it for her own sanity.
While the group was admiring the Zords DECA had been running the scanners on the group. She knew this was the best opportunity. To scan them and see what happened. DECA had opened the Ranger Selection Program from her systems. She activated the scanning program and waited for the results to start to come in. DECA watched as Momo switched from a Red to a Blue aura around her, Kyoka had a Yellow aura, Setsuna also switched from a Red to a green aura, and Ochako had a bright Pink aura. As the scans were completed the report read.
Ochako Uraraka: Match Found (P)
Setsuna Tokage: Matches Found (R/G)
Kyoka Jirou: Match Found (Y)
Momo Yaoyorozu: Matches Found (R/B)
"Interesting Results." DECA mused to herself as she watched them leave the Zord bay and head to the living quarters. She increased her scanning area and found several more matches and started to make a list. She made a note to discuss her findings with Nezu while everyone was at the beach. The Morpher vault may be opened sooner than she had originally planned.
"This the Living Quarters. There are about a dozen bunk rooms with showers and there is a kitchen that has a replicator that makes food that it has programmed into it and a Clothing replicator that can make almost any clothing." Everyone was impressed with the designs it looked like a cross between dorm rooms and a barracks. They noticed that one of the doors was closed behind him. "Oh, this is Mei's room. She is a friend that has been doing Zord maintenance and keeping this place up and running with DECA.”
“She?” Kyoka, Momo, Ochako, and Setsuna wondered.
“In fact, she should be up soon after sleep for the last 12 hours," Izuku said with a small chuckle. He knew from past experiences that when she crashed from exhaustion she would sleep for 12 hours and would wake up and start all over again. He tried to stop her, but she just dug her heels in. He heard her door open behind him "Oh speaking of Mei, hey-. “Before he could finish talking Ochako's hands were over his eyes.
“Don’t look Izuku!” Ochako called out to him as his vision darkened.
“What? What is going on?” Izuku asked confused by what was going on.
"Mei, we have talked about this, if you leave your room you must have a shirt on." Inko scolded the pink-haired girl. "It seems you need to have a refresher course with Nemuri if you are forgetting to wear clothes again." Izuku blushed at that going through it himself the night before. Izuku heard Mei 'eep' and the sound of a door closing quickly behind him.
"Dang those things are huge," Setsuna said with a low whistle. Izuku heard her grunt as it sounded like someone had elbowed her. More than likely it was Momo.
"So unfair," Kyoka muttered.
” Nice save Ochako," Momo said shaking her head at Mei's lack of decorum.
“Thanks, Momo,” After the door closed Ochako uncovered his eyes and gave him an awkward smile. “Sorry didn’t want you to get accidentally flashed.”
Izuku laughed “I appreciate it.” Izuku waited until Mei came out in a black t-shirt and an embarrassed face with Nemuri standing behind her giving her a stern look. “Mei let me introduce you to some new friends." After introducing everyone it was almost 1 in the afternoon. It was decided that they would eat and then head out to go swim. Mei was quiet for a little bit, but as she got more comfortable she came out of her shell. They couldn't stay mad at her wardrobe malfunction after talking with the girl. She had not had any friends in a long time and admitted she was socially awkward and understood machines better than people. Soon the group of 5 became 6. Momo added her to their group chat and told her they would check on her regularly.
The meal Inko had prepared was amazing and everyone was having a good time. After the food was eaten. Everyone went to an open room and changed into their swimwear. Izuku came out first and with his shirt on. He went and grabbed the cooler for some drinks for later and the tents that Momo had brought earlier.
"DECA I am going to get everything set up have Mei show everybody how to get out to the beach." Izuku headed for the beach when he heard her confirmation. Izuku stepped outside after having DECA make sure no one was around. And stepped onto the beach. He found a nice spot and set up the tents first and then set the cooler up for everyone to enjoy. He set his towel down on the beach beside the tent. He felt the nice breeze and comfortable heat making it a perfect day for the beach. He heard the door open everyone come out with an oversized shirts covering their swimsuits. After everyone set up their towels. Izuku had been to the beach with his sister before and knew they were beautiful. His mother had gone with a conservative two-piece that had shown her hard work off but still looked respectable at the same time.
He nearly had a heart attack when the girls took their shirts off. Momo had worn a dark blue two-piece that only enhanced her beauty. Setsuna wore a similar two-piece that hugged her frame. Ochako wore a pink and white one-piece that hugged her chest and hips. Kyoko wore a yellow one-piece that showed off her thin, but beautiful body. Mei wore a black two-piece that looked borrowed and it could barely contain her chest. After seeing this his brain had nearly crashed again and there was no filter to stop him from speaking what he thought about them in their swimsuits.
"Wow, you all look really beautiful." At this Izuku thought he was going to die of embarrassment as he clamped his hands over his mouth. All the girls blushed at his comment. Inko started to laugh out loud at this. Rumi was doubled over almost busting a gut.
Ryuko chuckled at this declaration. “Aw Izuku, who knew you were such a Casanova in training? I mean complimenting all of these girls at the same time. I am impressed." She looked over at Nemuri and gave her a wink to play along.
"I am impressed as well Izuku, you delivered that perfectly I am so proud of you baby brother," Nemuri said before devolving into laughter. Nemuri and Ryuko gave each other a high five at sending him into a spiraling stuttering mess.
"Alright, you guys have had your fun with Izuku, but daylight is burning and I want to get some sun to work on my tan," Yu whined as she grabbed Izuku pulling him into a protective hug. "Now let's get your sunscreen on and the others will help the girls."
The girls seemed a bit disappointed that Izuku wasn't going to help with their sunscreen, but a look from Nemuri, Rumi, and Ryuko gave them a look that meant 'don't try it.' The girls had gotten taken care of and waited as Izuku had helped Yu before she asked him to take off his shirt. Izuku was embarrassed but took it off as Yu started on his back. As soon as his shirt came off and showed off his muscles from months of hard work and cleaning the beach.
The girls were a blushing mess. Momo had created a fan with her quirk and started to fan her face. Ochako blushed heavily and covered her face except for her pinkies. She was still looking through her fingers. Mei blushed hard looking at the muscles and thought of how he could help with her inventing. Setsuna let out a low whistle at those hard muscles and would have said something, but remembered what happened last time and was going to wait until she wasn't being watched. The girls couldn't help but appreciate the kind of work it took to get that buff. Only Setsuna remembered to bring her phone and snapped a few quick pics to share with them later. Kyoka was blushing at the sight in front of her as she was wondering how he got so jacked.
Izuku noticed them looking at him and jumped into the water to calm down. The girls follow suit and soon everyone was having a good time. Yu went and joined in on the fun. Inko relaxed in the shade for a bit before joining in. Rumi, Nemuri, and Ryuko worked on their tan, and watching Izuku's smile was good enough for them. Eventually, they went into the water and it turned into an all-out water war, where there was no winner, but a lot of fun.
By the end of the day, everyone was exhausted but was in a terrific mood. As it started getting dark everyone went inside and took a shower in a vacant room and changed back into their street clothes. Izuku fired up the replicator and made sure everybody had something to eat for dinner before they had to head home.
Momo and Setsuna departed when their ride arrived to take them home. They both hugged him and promised to message him later to hang out. Rumi never took her eyes off Setsuna until she got into the car.
Mei left to head home to sleep in her own bed for the night. She hugged Izuku and told him she would see him around. Ryuko hugged him and promised to escort Mei home so she didn't get lost or fall asleep on a bench. Again.
Rumi and Nemuri had an early shift and left to get some sleep, but not before giving him and hug and teasing him about his flirting earlier. After flustering him, they departed together.
Ochako and Kyoka were the last to leave and hugged him as well before heading out. Ochako made him promise to find some time to let her fly the Megaship before she agreed to leave. Kyoko hugged him and told him to stay out of trouble. Izuku promised them both and told them to message him to hang out. Both promised they would before they started heading home.
Izuku gather up their stuff and walked with his mother to go home for the night. “I think that was a great day. What about you Mom?” Izuku gave her the biggest smile she had ever seen.
Inko laughed at his and ruffled her son's hair affectionately. "Yes, I am glad to see you this happy again dear.” She pulled him close and squeezed his shoulder. “We will need to plan this more often I think we all need a day to unwind and have fun.”
“Sure, thing Mom.” Izuku leaned into his mother and sighed contently. This had been a great day with his family and friends. He was glad they stood by him and hoped this was the beginning of a long friendship.
Notes:
DECA is working behind the scenes and seems to have found a few matches. I feel like Izuku is an accidental flirt and speaks the truth when he sees it.
Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Close Call and Rescue

While waiting for the his results from UA arrive Izuku is asked to help in a crisis.
(Edited on 12/25/21)
Notes:
Here is Chapter 7. I want to thank everyone for the comments and Kudos from this story. I am glad a lot of people seem to enjoy it. There will be Two more chapter after this before the start of UA.
Chapter Text
Izuku sighed for what seemed like the 1000th time that day. It had been 5 days since the impromptu beach day and he getting was beyond antsy waiting to hear from UA. He knew he should receive his results from the exam any day now. He tried to relax over the last 5 days. He had trained and hung out with his new friends, but he was going crazy waiting for his results to finally arrive. His friends were busy today with other plans leaving him on his own to deal with his boredom.
Ochako was spending the day with her parents while they were in town for a short visit about a possible contract for a job before she started at UA. She had attempted to change her plans, but Izuku insisted that she spend time with her family since they were so busy. Ochako appreciated and promised to make it up to him later.
Kyoka was at a music studio her parents owned working part-time for some spending money for some new CDs and records had she had her eyes on for quite a while now. Izuku understood her wanting to expand her music collection and told her to have fun. Kyoko promised to help him find some new music for him to listen to and help expand his musical education.
Momo and Setsuna were at a fancy luncheon with their parents to celebrate their acceptance at UA and would not be able to hang out until later that day at the earliest. Izuku understood that their family wanted them to be there and told them they find time to do other things.
Mei was currently resting in her room at the Command Center after working for almost 3 days straight on some kind of invention and Izuku had personally put her to bed in her room at the Command Center early that morning after receiving a call from DECA that she had fallen asleep at her workbench again. (Thankfully she was fully clothed as he did not want his mother or Sisters to talk to him again about female form).
His mother was at work preparing for the new semester to begin and taking care of 3rd years that were living on campus for a training event that took place for most of the day. She would be with Recovery Girl in case they had a lot of injuries.
Nemuri was doing the same working on her prep for the new School year and wasn’t free for him to visit her at UA even just to keep her company. She said it would be too tempting for her to cuddle with him instead of getting any of her work done. Shouta had shut that down as he was doing the same prep work as her and was unable to train him today.
Rumi, Yu, and Ryuko were all patrolling today on their normal routes and he didn't want to sit around an empty agency, any more than he did want to sit around the apartment. Izuku flipped through a few channels but didn't see anything that looked remotely interesting to keep his attention. He was about to go for a walk to wake up a bit and stretch his legs when his communicator beeped at him.
beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep
“What is going on DECA?” he asked suddenly feeling completely awake.
"Emergency Transmission from Yu requesting to speak with you and Nezu," DECA replied in a calm voice, but Izuku immediately had a bad feeling in his stomach as he sat up.
"Patch us all in DECA," Izuku said moving to grab his keys and wallet. After a few moments two clicks were heard on his communicator "This is Izuku, what's going on Yu?" Izuku asked hoping he was wrong about this feeling.
“Nezu here, Go Mt. Lady.”
“Oh, thank god that worked,” Yu said with a strained sigh. "Look, A villain bombed a massive skyscraper running from another pro and I was nearby to keep it steady until help could arrive, but the supports are starting to break, and if I use too much of my strength the building will break apart more than it already is." She strained for a moment. “I called out for assistance, but no one is available to help. I know there are still people in the building that are trapped.”
“What do you need Mt. Lady?” Nezu knew exactly what she needed, but needed to hear a formal request to grant it with his special permission as Principal. He grabbed the needed supplies from his desk and had already started to fill them out.
"I need Izuku to respond as a Ranger and use his Zords to help get civilians out before this all comes crashing down," Yu responded her voice starting to strain. “I had Police and Emergency Response clear you 6-8 city blocks in all directions.”
Izuku face grew serious “Do I have permission Nezu?” He was going to do it anyway, but he would rather not be called a vigilante before he was officially accepted into UA. Izuku was sure Nezu would make sure that didn’t happen, but why take that chance.
“Green Light Izuku, Emergency Temporary Hero License has been approved. Go now and back up Mt. Lady." Nezu said quickly the sound of a stamp hitting paper was heard in the background. Nezu sent out another notification to all heroes for assistance for Mt. Lady and sent several to those who were close by to respond as well.
Izuku sent a quick message to his mom that he was being called to help Yu in an Emergency and to ask Nezu for details and that he loved her with all his heart. After he sent the message he put the phone away.
At UA
Inko had just finished patching a third year that had gotten too excited during their training exercise and had injured themselves pretty well. Recovery Girl had partially healed the student due to their exhaustion and his injury still needed to be dressed until she could fully heal the student after they had rested. Inko had left her phone on her desk and never heard the message notification.
With Izuku.
"Copy that Nezu, DECA I need you to teleport me to her location on the ground and I'll get to work." Izuku grabbed his Master Morpher and changed it to a specific wrist Morpher. He prepared to be teleported to the scene. As he was teleported to the scene about a block behind Yu. The building was badly damaged with fire and smoke filling the air. Izuku could see her straining to keep it balanced. ‘It’s Morphin Time! Lightspeed Rescue!” Izuku flashed red and was now the Lightspeed Red Ranger. “DECA I need Lightspeed Rescue Zords!”
(Power Rangers Lightspeed OST)
“Affirmative Izuku, Zords are en-route to your location.”
A large flash of light filled the street as 4 Zords appeared out of thin air on the street and one appeared in the air. “DECA while I get Pyro 1 into position to stabilize the building. I need Aqua 2, Haz Rescue 4, and Med Rescue 5 combine to form Hydro Mode to help put out those fires, then have AERO 3 fly up and have it use its magnets to take some strain from Yu," Izuku jumped into the cockpit of Pyro 1 and started moving it into position on the opposite side of Mt. Lady. "Hang in there Yu, I am almost in position." As he made the final adjustments on the placement of Pyro 1 to allow for the best stability and support.
“I hate to rush you Izuku, but it's getting a bit heavy!” Yu strained as the building started to crumble around her hands. She locked herself in place holding the building in place.
Izuku got Pyro 1 in place and deployed the stabilizers on the front and back and activated the ladder arms. He angled them for the best support and extends the arms and opened the Zords hands to cradle the building helping to distribute the weight. He looked over to the Hydro Mode walking nearby putting out the fire on the lower floors. He looked up to see Aero 3 lowering the magnetic hooks to keep the building stable. "Great Job DECA. I am setting controls for Pyro 1 to autopilot. Yu, I'm heading in to get everyone out so you can set this thing down," Izuku said as he unstrapped his harness and took the lift built into the arms to take him to the top of the arms granting him access to the building.
"Be safe, but quick Izuku I am almost at my limit," Yu said breathing a little easier with the weight being shared. "Remind me to thank you for this later little brother for the save." She took a deep breath as she felt the strain lessen.
"Anytime Sis." Izuku tapped his helmet and put it into search mode. And found 15 people in a centralized location several flights up and a small child 4 flights up from them. Izuku ran towards the large group first taking the flights at a rapid speed. He drew his rescue blaster and set it to Extinguisher Mode and worked his way to them. He had to reset the cartage a few times but knocked the fire out enough to get him into the room.
“Everyone I need you to stay together and I will get you all out of here in just a few moments." When they were close enough together, Izuku tapped his helmet "DECA emergency teleport out for 15 near my location and then standby to teleport myself and a child trapped 4 floors up."
"Affirmative, teleporting out now and standing by.”
As she finished speaking the civilians were teleported to the nearby emergency services for treatment. "Yu, I got 15 civilians out via teleport, but I kid trapped 4 flights up and currently moving to get her out of here.” His suit was filtering out the heat and smoke as he moved up the first flight. Izuku adjusted the scanner to monitor the condition of the building as went up the second flight. His screen was reading the building was deteriorating at a rapid pace.
“Copy Izuku, but make it fast even with this support the building is breaking apart too fast.” Yu readjusted her hands slightly to hold it together just a bit longer. ‘Come on Izuku you need to move faster.’ Yu thought to herself as she turned her head hoping to see any hero arrive for support. “Nezu I need you to contact Rumi and Ryuko and find out their location on the com channel and please tell Nemuri and Shouta to go sit with Inko when she sees this please.”
“I am already working on Yu,” Nezu said with concern in his voice "I am trying to get you more assistance as quickly as possible, but multiple large operations are going on right now. I have to have faith in my student at the moment."
“Copy that. Whoever is available tell them to hurry.” Yu said as she could hear more cracking sounds coming from the building.
Nezu tapped his microphone “Eraserhead, Midnight, Recovery Girl, Nurse Inko please respond to my Office immediately.” He thumbed it off and turned on the TV on the wall and watched intently. “Izuku please hurry. I have faith in you.” Nezu said aloud as the channel repeated the breaking news report.
BREAKING NEWS: MT. LADY AND NEW HERO RESCUE OPERATION IN PROGRESS. 15 RESCUED
A short time ago a villain blew up a skyscraper to escape the hero and would have fallen to the street if not for the quick actions from Mt. Lady who happened to be in that area. While Mt. Lady was holding the building in place a green-haired young man appeared on the scene and transformed into a red suit similar to the one that battled the slime villain nearly 10 months ago. After he arrived he seemed to summon multiple massive machines to assist Mt. Lady in stabilizing the building. Shortly after stabilizing the building, 15 trapped civilians appeared out of thin air directly in front of Emergency Services with early reports saying the young hero is still inside the building. One of the victims has reported that the hero stated a child was trapped on another floor and was attempting to rescue the child. Please stay tuned as the Rescue operation continues to develop.
Ochako
Ochako had been enjoying her day with her parents and was quite content to have a nice day with them. Their business had picked up a little bit allowing them to relax a bit but didn't go spend-happy. She had been sad to tell Izuku she was unable to hang out, but seeing her parents was a treat for her nowadays and was glad when he understood. She had just sat down on a couch to watch an old movie with her parents when the breaking news interrupted it.
Her dad groaned and was about to change the station when she heard " -ding it up a green-haired young man appeared on the scene and transformed into a red suit similar to the one that battled the slime villain nearly 10 months ago. After he arrived he seemed to summon multiple massive machines to assist Mt. Lady in stabilizing the building.

One of the victims has reported that the hero stated a child was trapped on another floor and was attempting to rescue the child. Please stay tuned as the Rescue operation continues to develop. Ochako froze for a moment before she grabbed the remote from her father’s hand and watched as it showed him arrive and morph into a Red Ranger before summoning his Zords.
"Oh God, Izuku!" Ochako cried as she watched the TV. Her parents grew concerned at her reaction to the news report.
"Do you know him, sweetie?" Her mother asked pulling her daughter closer to her in a hug to comfort her.
Ochako nodded "We met at the exams and he saved me from getting hurt." She said trying to control her breathing. "We went to the beach with our friends and have been texting all week in our group chat." Ochako felt so helpless watching this live and not being able to do a thing about it. She sent a message to her group and added a link to the message with the word Emergency. She then focused back on the TV watching for her friend.
Momo and Setsuna
Momo and Setsuna were sitting at a table all dressed up and bored out of their minds. This event was for their parents to meet new clients and to show off their daughters who had been accepted into UA as Recommendation Students. It took all of 15 minutes and a dozen congratulations that they had regretted agreeing to come here in the first place. They still have a couple of hours until they would be free to go home and not be considered rude to their parent's guests or business partners. Setsuna had separated and reattached her fingers for the 5th time in less than a minute when both of their phones chimed. When they saw Emergency and clicked on the link both gasped as they saw their green hair friend move to stabilize the building and save a bunch of people, but he was still inside and the building was starting to break apart. Momo brought a hand to her mouth and Setsuna grit her teeth before grasping Momo’s free hand in support.
‘Please be safe Izuku’ Momo thought
'You better be safe Izu or so help me." Setsuna thought trying not to worry.
Mei
Mei had slept a good 6 hours of sleep before hunger woke her up from her much-needed sleep. She had brought a few snacks with her and started munching on a few and was attempting to go back to sleep when her phone pinged. After reading the message and watching the video from the link. Mei rushed to the viewing screen and watched everything going on live. "Is there anything I can do to help DECA?" Mei asked racking her brain for something he could use to help her friend.
“Not at this time Mei, I am sorry.” DECA said “I am monitoring the situation. Have faith in him.”
"You better be safe Zuzu," Mei said doing something she had not done in a very long time. She prayed.
UA Group Chat
Tech Girl (Mei): I am at the Command Center listening to the audio traffic. He is inside the building looking for a little girl that is trapped.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): I just watched a bunch of people get teleported out. He can get out the same way, right?
Forge (Momo): Once he gets the girl he should be able to do the same.
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Look at our bunny to be a big hero before school even starts.
Kyoka
Kyoka was bored out of her skull doing the menial grunt work for some spending money. It was usually taking out the trash or cleaning up all over the studio. It was such a drag, but it was for some new music she wanted so she would muddle through it as she usually did. She was taking her break when she got the message. She ran over to the TV in the break area and turned it on and sat on the couch watching the news on pins and needles as she waited for more updates. "Come on Green Bean," Kyoka said quietly fidgeting with the tips of her ears. She looked at the messages on her phone from her friends.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): That building is not looking too good he needs to get out of there fast!
Rumi and Ryuko
Rumi and Ryuko had been working together on a small job 30 minutes away from Mt. Lady's location when they got the ping for help. After finishing up they hurried that way. When they heard from Nezu that Izuku had been called in to support her with his Zords and was now inside the build rescuing the last trapped civilian. They both booked that direction they had turned on their com-link and were listening to the conversation going on between Yu and Izuku.
'Hang on Kid, Calvary is on the way.' Rumi told herself to move faster. Each jump she pushed harder to gain more speed. She was not going to fail Izuku. He always cheered her on about aiming to be ranked above the top 5.
'Oh Izuku, please be safe.' Ryuko thought as she flapped her wings harder to keep pace with her partner as best she could. She remembered meeting her little brother for the first time and nearly getting diabetes for how sweet and adorable he was. She enjoyed helping him when she could on his way to UA. This boy had the heart and drive to reach the top. She would save him or die trying.
Inko, Nemuri, Shouta, RG, and Nezu
After they arrived at Nezu's office and as soon as they saw what was on the screen the room became very tense. Nezu filled them in on what had transpired and that it was under his permission that Izuku was allowed to assist in this rescue operation. Inko's eyes never left the screen and it wasn't until Nemuri guided her to the couch that she sat down. Recovery Girl bowed her head and said a small prayer. Shouta was tense and almost wanted to run down there, but knew it was illogical he would only hamper the rescue efforts. 'Come on Kid.' Shouta kept thinking to himself knowing that he had to have faith in his student.
Nemuri was not doing much better as she had tears running down her face and was clinging to Inko just as much as she was clinging to her. Nemuri was afraid to watch and started to pray to every god she knew for the baby brother. Inko was crying wanting to hold her son and made a list of things she was going to scream at him when this was over. Nezu asked DECA to patch the com-link traffic to his computer and a few moments later they heard his voice.
Inside the Building
Izuku reached the last flight and scanned again to get the exact location of the child and moved into a corner room to find a small girl terrified, covered in dirt and coughing. "Yu, I found the kid standby." Izuku barely heard her confirmation as he moved towards the girl and she moved back scared of him. "It's ok, my name is Izuku. I'm here to save you." He tapped his helmet and his visor and mask moved away from his face to reassure her. "What is your name?"
“R-Raphtalia.” The girl replied coughing. She couldn’t be more than 7 years old with brown hair and raccoon ears on her head and a short-stripped tail. Her clothing was a dirty pink shirt and blue overalls. She moved close to Izuku "You are going to save me?" she asked looking deep into his eyes filled with hope. Izuku noticed a high-tech metal shock collar around her neck and easily reached up breaking it off with minimal effort before tossing it aside.
Izuku gave her a nod and scooped her up and closed his visor. “DECA ready for teleport out with a civilian.” Izuku waited, but when nothing happened. “DECA what is going on?” He had drawn his blaster still on extinguisher settings and started to put out the fires that had spread around him to reduce the heat and smoke for Raphtalia.
“Izuku, I am detecting some kind of electromagnetic field that has started to interfere with Ranger teleport operations. My scanners are indicating that may be the girl’s quirk or something else in the building. You will need to make an alternate egress at this time until I can try and re-calibrate the system.”
"Copy That DECA. Yu teleporter operations are being jammed by something. I am making my way out at this time by foot." Izuku readjusted his grip on the girl "Hang on tight." He ran towards the flights of stairs he had just come from when the build shook hard nearly tossing him off balance. Izuku came to a stop as the stairwell collapsed nearly taking both of them with it. "Yu it's getting too unstable in here, the stairway is gone, looking for a tertiary escape route." Izuku cut back into a hallway and made his towards another exit. As he cleared a corner he saw something large start to appear like a mirage near where he had found Raphtalia. Izuku recognized what it was immediately when he spotted the timer and called out to Yu.
Outside the building
Yu watched at the building her hand starting to crack and crumble up the side. "Make it fast it's not going to hold." She tried to move her hands but it made the cracks appear faster. The Zords had been a major blessing, but the building was starting to deteriorate from the heat and stress. "I really need some support now the building is about to go and he is still inside with a kid." She called out to her sisters hoping that they arrived soon.
"Yu, this is Rumi. We are less than 3 minutes out and booking it Hang on we're almost there!" Miruko yelled over the com channel.
Yu nearly cried in relief at hearing that. “Oh, thank god, Izu did you-,” She was cut off with his next transmission.
“Abort, Abort, there is a massive bomb in the building Yu get away from the building!” Izuku screamed at her. "Yu get away from the building NOW! I will find another way out, but this thing is massive if it blows it could take out a full city block maybe two." Yu was stunned that there is a bomb that big in the building she had been holding onto this entire time. "DECA, have Aero 3 start lifting up the building and get as high as the thrusters will allow to minimize the nearby damage."
“Copy Izuku, adjusting thrusters to maximum. It may not be able to get high enough without additional support." DECA stated as she ran the calculations. On how much was needed to complete the operation.
Inside the building
"DECA, use the Lightspeed Omegazords to help out AERO 3," Izuku said as he made another turn to reach the secondary stairwell. And saw that it was still intact he let out a sigh of relief. He moved them towards the stairs and took them two or three at a time using his enhanced agility to keep his balance. He saw a timer in the corner of his eyes that was tracking the countdown. When he hit his 8th flight he felt the building start to move upward. "Yu are you clear of the blast zone?"
“Negative, I am not leaving you, where are you?” Yu asked the tone of voice was starting to sound desperate.
Izuku cleared that last set of stairs and reached an open floor. Just above when the build was broken. "I'm almost out. Get clear now!" Izuku looked to see he was getting pretty high up and teleporting out was not an option and more than likely it would prevent any equipment from being teleported in, then need to come up with a plan fast. He needed to find a way out quick if only he could magically-. He sparked with an idea and reached for his Morpher "Hold on Raphtalia, it’s going to be a wild ride." Izuku changed his Morpher and transformed in a flash of red.
UA Group Chat
Tech Girl (Mei): Guys! Izuku can't teleport out! Something is jamming it. He is still inside the building trying to get out and there is a bomb in the building.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): OH GOD!
Forge (Momo): How much time does he have?!
Tech Girl (Mei): I don’t know……
Dinogirl (Setsuna): God Izuku needs to get out of there now!
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Come on Green Bean! We need you safe!
Outside the building
Yu watched as the building was being lifted higher and higher into the sky. Izuku was still in there. She was watched as 5 new Zords had been teleported and attached additional hooks to the building and started assisting to pull the building higher into the sky. "Come on kid get out of there," Yu muttered to herself watching helplessly as continued to rise higher into the sky.
“Mt. Lady!” Yu turned to see Miruko land nearby breathing a little heavy. “Where is he?” Yu watched her look around for their brother before looking back at her. Mt. Lady pointed upwards towards the building.
"Shit," Miruko swore as Ryukyu arrived a moment later.
Ryukyu was panting as well they heard his traffic about the teleporter being jammed by something. She had watched Mt Lady point up to the rising building and swore the same as Miruko before transforming into her dragon form.
"I'll get him," Ryukyu said and started her flight upward, but only made it a few feet before a massive explosion filled the sky. The force of the explosion was strong even being so high up and almost sent Ryukyu towards the ground if Mt. Lady had not caught her in her hands. The Zords that had been lifting the build had been blown away unharmed. They vanished as there teleported away to safety. Pyro 1 and Hydro Mode had finished putting out the fire before there were teleported away as well.
(Naruto Sadness OST)
"IZUKU!" All three Heroine cried out as they watched fire and smoke fill the sky. Each had tears in their eyes but had to painfully push it aside as they sprang into action preventing large chunks of debris from reaching the ground. They had a job to do and could mourn later. They took their pain and turned it into their strength and left nothing but dust in their wake. Yu tapped her com-link making sure it was still set to open and kept asking "Izuku can you read me? Please Respond!" all they heard were clicks and static driving them to fight harder and smash as much debris as possible.
Ochako watched the building explode and felt her stomach drop and began to sob into her mother's shoulder for her friend and savior. She felt her mother hold her tight and run a hand through her hair to comfort her. Her father had bowed his head out of respect for the young man’s bravery.
Setsuna and Momo cried as they watched the debris fall from the sky. Both wished they had been there to help and maybe gotten him out sooner. Both continued to watch hoping he had survived somehow.
Mei had fallen to her knees eyes stinging with tears. She heard the giant lady keep calling out for Zuzu, but each time there was nothing, but static on the other end. He had treated like a normal person and put up with her insane inventions and even helped her from time to time when she asked. “DECA?” Mei asked the only question that mattered.
"I am sorry Mei, but there is too much interference at the moment for me to get a confirmation scan." DECA's voice had a sad tone to it and Mei felt tears fall from her eyes and for the first time in a long time she cried her heart out.
Kyoka sat in stunned silence as she watched what had happened to her friend. He had been all smiles and blushed whenever she teased him. He was a good person and this is how he went out. He was a true hero in her book saving 15 people and attempting to try and save a kid. She had come in for money and He was out being a god damn hero. She wiped away the tears running down her face and could barely speak above a whisper. "Oh, Green Bean."
Inko screamed at the explosion and was pulled tight into Midnight's shoulder. Midnight was crying as well but didn't was to believe it turning away from the TV and consoling her mother figure.
Recovery Girl let out a sad sigh “Another star had left us too soon.” She muttered sadly. She had been around the Hero community for a very long time and had been to too many funerals for promising heroes and friends.
Nezu had remained stoic at the TV in front of him. He approved the request that allowed Izuku to help this and now it looked like he fell trying to save a child. That boy was selfless and always put others first despite most of their discussions on self-preservation. He was running calculations in his head at the probability of his safe return. He had faith that his student had found a way to survive.
Shouta felt the familiar pain of loss from his younger days. He was gruff to make his student strong and more prepared for the world. He was never one to have a favorite student, but he would deny it if anybody asked him if Izuku was his favorite. The boy had been bright and driven to succeed. He took everything he had thrown at him and then some. He moved closer to the wall and punched it hard enough to crack it and causing his knuckles to bleed. Recover Girl moved over silently and started to tend to his hand.
Ground Zero
The heroines had been taking out as many large pieces as they could but there was a lot of debris. They had kept it contained for the most part, but they need more heroes. A large piece was about to hit the ground near the Emergency Service area, but a blur rushed it and smashed it to pieces. “Have No Fear, For I Am Here!” All Might called out to the public. He moved toward the other Heroes. “How can I be of Assistance?” He moved to smash a few more pieces leaving dust in his wake.
"We are keeping it contained, but take out the pieces that slip past us if you can All Might," Ryukyu replied breaking stone and steel with her claws.
"I am on it, my Friends." In a fury of motion, he moved around the group taking out the stray pieces and even helping out when they couldn't. It didn't take long before the debris was gone and all that was left was dust, smoke, and silence in the sky. The crowd seemed to be in a somber mood despite having the #1 Pro Hero on the scene.
Mt. Lady had shrunk down to her normal size and moved to her sisters and started to break down before Ryukyu pulled her into a tight hug and tried to comfort her. Miruko shoulder shook trying to stop herself from crying and trying to remain strong in front of so many people. Miruko fidgeted with a small charm bracelet under her glove with a green and white bunny. A gift from Izuku after she started training him.
All three of them had a heavy heart at the possible loss of Izuku.
"If I hadn't called him then-." Mt Lady started but was quickly shushed by Ryukyu, who patted her on the back to try and soothe Mt. Lady.
“We both know Izuku would have helped out anyway if and when he saw you the news and we all know it.” Ryukyu said gently “Don’t even think of blaming yourself, Izuku wouldn’t like that one bit.”
Several clicks and garbled words were heard in their earpieces. All three looked at each other and hope swelled inside when they heard more clicks.
"Connection reestablished," DECA said quickly over the com-links. Despite being an AI joy could be heard in her artificial voice.
(Power Ranger Mystic Force OST)
"Hey, can anyone hear me?" Izuku's voice came in loud and clear. “I think something that explosion was blocking my communicator.” The wind could be heard whipping around him.
"Izuku where are you?" Mt. Lady asked as she was smiling wiping the tears from her eyes and looking around nearby for him. Miruko and Ryukyu were smiling and cheering as well. All Might heard the girls cheering and smiled at her fellow heroes and the news crews were trying to figure out what was going on.
"Look to the sky I should be in sight shortly, I got blown pretty far of course when the building blew up," Izuku replied sounding exhausted. “I can see you all now on my approach down.”
The Heroine looked to see a red figure riding something. As it neared they could see he was in a Red Ranger suit with a cape riding what looked to be across from a broom and a hoverbike. They saw him steering with one arm and holding the kid tightly as he made a circle around and landed inform of his sisters. When he dismounted and lower the kid to the ground the nearby crowd went nuts. Cheers and the sound of celebration filled the air around them. His sisters pulled him into a tight hug and held him tight as they could.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to make you guys worry. The electromagnetic field was preventing me from teleporting out or any items in. I had to change into the Mystic Ranger and use magic to get the Mystic Racer for our escape and we had just cleared the window when it exploded and sent me spinning away from the area. When I got control back, I turned and headed back here." Izuku was released from the hug and checked on the girl who still looked a little nauseated from the rough ride down. "Sorry for the rough ride Raphtalia, but I did warn you it was going to be a wild ride."
The poor raccoon girl nodded slowly "I-I know Izu, but I want to keep my feet firmly on the ground from now on please, and maybe for the rest of my life." She gave out a weak moan as she tried not to throw up. Izuku chuckled and rubbed her back to try and soothe the poor girl's upset stomach. "Who are these people?" She got a little timid and moved closer to him clinging to his leg.
"These are my big sisters, Mt. Lady, Miruko, and Ryukyu." Izuku gestured to them in his red glove hand. "They have been looking after me for a while, so you can trust them." Izuku stood up and felt exhausted with calling on 10 Zords and two morphs along with calling the Mystic Racer. "Power Down." He flashed red to return to normal and nearly fell over until Miruko caught him. "Thanks, I'm a little exhausted." His words nearly slurred out fighting to stay awake. He watched as Raphtalia held his leg tightly in worry. "I'll be ok after I just need some rest." He said to reassure her ruffling her hair. "I promise." He gave her his trademark smile.
When a medical team hurried over and tried to move him to an ambulance to go get him checked out, he tried to refuse at first until he saw the stern looks his sisters were sending in his direction and all three pointed to the ambulance. That took any fight he had left in him. Raphtalia refused to be separated from him and after a small discussion, they allowed her to ride with him to the hospital. After the Medical team told them of their destination Mt. Lady pulled out a phone and called Nemuri and told her where her brother was being taken to. As soon as she was finished let out a sigh and hurried to finish her work to head to check on Izuku at the hospital.
All Might had watched the young man arrive safely and smiled at his interaction with the 4 Pro Heroines fussed over their brother. He had to admit he was reminded of his debut years ago and thought the kid had style. He regretted his words to the young man so many months ago and planned on apologizing to him personally for how wrong he had been. He was sure he would get his chance soon. He looked at his phone and went to see if anything else was needed before he had to meet someone important soon. 'Keep up the good work kid.'
Meanwhile
Ochako shouted with joy to see Izuku ride in unharmed and holding a small girl in his arms. She could see his red cape flying in the wind like a true hero. It reminded her of an old All Might video that was very similar. She couldn't help but smile at him for being a hero. Now that being said she wanted to be angry with him for scaring her so badly, but seeing the smile on the little girl's face stopped that feeling immediately. She sent a message to the group asking for information. Her mother smiled at her daughter's reaction hoping to meet this boy one day very soon.
Setsuna and Momo cheered loud enough that it caught the attention of their parents and noticed the tears in their eyes. After their parents watched it they watched it for themselves they understood what had happened. Setsuna had to admit that he may have scared her a bit (a lot, but she was not about to admit it even to herself.), but to see him holding that small girl that must have been terrified to have been trapped in that building. She was going to give him hell for making her and Momo cry. When she received the message from Ochako she knew it was time to plan a trip to the hospital as a group to check on their green bunny.
Momo let out a sigh of relief when she watched him move towards the Pro Heroines and comfort the small girl. She knew he was a kind spirit who had the drive and dedication to be a great future hero. She knew he would go far in his hero training and planned to have some time to do more analysis on her quirk and get to know him better. When she received a message from Ochako about him and looked over to see the look on Setsuna's face there was an unspoken agreement between them. Momo's mother called a ride for the two of them and sent them to wait in the lobby for it to arrive. As they waited in the lobby she pulled out her phone and messaged the group.
Forge (Momo): I have a ride on the way to pick us Setsuna and myself to take us to the Hospital. You all can ride with us if you want. I nearly fainted when I saw him land.
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Everyone send us your address and we will come to pick everyone up. We all need to go see him.
Mei wiped her tears away from her face and shouted from the top of her lungs with a cheer of happiness. She smiled at Zuzu comforting the small girl in his Ranger form and made sure that DECA got a Hi-resolution image for later. She was scared that she was going to lose her best friend. It took her a long time to get a friend like him. She heard her phone chime and looked at DECA. "Are you good with visiting our Ranger?" Mei went to her room to change her clothes and get ready to be picked up.
DECA gave a digital hum before answering. "I believe we should Mei and I am sure that there is a line forming to see him." When Mei's phone chimed she looked at the group chat.
Tech Girl (Mei): DECA and I will be ready for pick-up. Address Sent
Gravity Girl (Ochako): I want to sure he is doing ok too. I believe as Momo stated our Bunny needs to know that we care about him. I am just glad he is alive. Address Sent.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): I’m down ladies. I nearly had a panic attack when the building blew up. That boy is bad for my nerves. Address Sent.
Kyoka had put her phone down and let her breathing return to normal. And took a few minutes to finish setting down completely. She knew that he didn't do it on purpose and was pretty sure the other girls would settle down once they saw him in person but would have some serious making up to do to all of them for that scare. She watched the replay of him comforting the girl and how the wind made his cape billow in the wind like some of the great heroes of old. She hummed a tune and then grabbed a piece of paper and a pen to write down a song she had just thought of. She would have hated it if something had happened to her muse. She wanted to hug him with all her might as she watched him land safely. He was on his way to becoming an amazing hero.
At UA
As soon as they heard his voice over the computer speakers everyone in the room let out a high cheer and a sigh of relief as they saw Izuku land with the child in safely in hand. Nezu made sure he had the entire thing recorded and planned to us in his special hero classes with the 2nd and 3rd years students that this personified what it meant to be a hero. He made a few notes to have a sit down with Izuku and have a new class with this current incoming 1st-year class. He couldn't help but smile with pride as his student was cheered by the public.
Recovery girl let out a sigh of relief and moved towards Nezu's special cabinet and poured herself a drink. She hoped that this boy would not be another All Might and be this reckless all the time. She had hope that someone would be able to keep him grounded someday.
Shouta nearly fell to his knees in relief and was proud with a smug grin (hidden by his scarf of course.) He couldn't wait for him to get him in class and train him into the ground for scaring him that badly. What kind of mentor would he be if he didn't train his (unofficial) protégé to be a better hero? Shouta had just the training partner in mind for his (unofficial) protégé.
Nemuri and Inko both sagged into the couch with relief and couldn't help, but smile as they watched the crowd cheer for Izuku and watched as he comforted the little girl he had rescued. It was quite adorable and both hoped someone had gotten a good shot of them to have it framed as his first save. Nemuri got a call from Yu and after hanging up told everyone when Izuku had been taken to get checked out by a doctor. She told them that he was unhurt, just exhausted, and was being looked over along with the girl.
Nezu ordered to have the vehicle brought around to go see their favorite student. Inko looked at Nemuri as they walked out "Please message your sisters and let them know we are on our way to see Izuku at the hospital." Inko gave her a small smile "Can you do that for me, dear?"
Now it was Nemuri's turn to give her a sweet smile. "Yes Mom, I will let them know where to meet us and we will keep them updated." She sent a flurry of messages to the others and waited for their replies.
Shouta heard his phone chime reminding him to be on time tonight. 'This woman is going to be the death of me, but after today it doesn't bother me.' He thought as he sent her back a quick message. Yes, Dear. He put away his phone in case anyone would see his message.
Nemuri also contacted Momo with the detail about what hospital Izuku had been taken to as well as knowing that she would tell the other girls for her. Nemuri smiled as she entered the car proud of herself and waited to hear from Yu, Rumi, and Ryuko when they could get free and get to see Izuku.
While Izuku rested in the hospital bed with Raphtalia, who was curled up into her savior's side both were sleeping peacefully as his mother, his 4 sisters, and his 5 female friends were heading his way to check on him. Nezu, Shouta, and Recovery Girl were going as well as they were just as worried about the young man.

Chapter Text
Izuku let the medical staff fuss over him and make sure he was unharmed. He was across from Raphtalia who was nervous about being around so many new people. When they finished they told both of them to rest until their results were in and someone came to check on them. A nurse brought some food for them and after both had finished their meals decided to get some rest. The staff made sure they got comfortable in their beds before leaving the room.
As Izuku just finished getting comfortable in his bed he saw Raphtalia standing beside his bed clutching her pillow to her chest looking scared. “What’s up Raphtalia?” Izuku asked the young girl.
"C-can I sleep in your bed? Mine is too big and lonely?" She looked at him with big watery eyes and an adorable pout. Her tail was swinging slowly behind her as hugged the pillow just a bit tighter.
'Most dangerous weapon in the world' Izuku thought to himself before scooting over and patting the side of his bed. "Come on." He watched her face brighten up immediately and scrambled onto the bed almost falling, but Izuku helped her up and she quickly burrowed into his side and pulled the blanket up to her chin. Izuku silently chuckled at her antics and laid down and wrapped an arm around her before drifting off for some much-needed sleep.
Inko arrived at the hospital along with Nezu, Shouta, and Recovery Girl as it was busy with activity in the waiting room they had to wait for a few minutes before a nurse was available to assist them. She moved towards the desk as a busy nurse attempted to hand her a clipboard, but Inko stopped her "I am looking for my son Izuku Midoriya." Inko gave her a chance to start looking him up. "He was brought in from the building explosion by an ambulance crew just a little bit ago." Inko waited as patiently as possible until the nurse found the room and wrote it down before handing the piece of paper to her.
"He is in room 335." The nurse stated politely. "Also please give my regards to your son on his truly heroic save today." She gave Inko a smile and bowed to her.
Inko returned her smile and returned the bow. “I will do that thank you so much for your help.” Inko turned her group and led them to elevators to bring them up to the 3rd floor. Inko had been antsy since she arrived wanting to see her son. As the elevator reached the floor she reached the nurse's station to ask the nurse which way to room 335. The nurse looked up the room and called over an older man nearby.
“Hello I am Dr. Takashi and I am your son’s physician.” Dr. Takashi gave her a professional smile. “I assume you are his mother?”
Inko nodded “Yes I am Izuku’s Mother. Is he alright?” Inko already heard from her daughters that he was exhausted after it was over, but she knew he had downplayed stuff before so no one would worry about him. She knew that the hospital would do a battery of tests just to make sure he was alright.
"Your son is doing fine. He is currently resting in his room from exhaustion." Dr. Takashi handed her his file. "Your son mentioned you were a nurse and would ask to see his file the moment you arrived. I made sure it was ready for you."
Inko couldn't help but chuckle at her son's antics of knowing her so well. "Thank you, Doctor." She looked over the notes and saw that everything was normal and that exhaustion was noted by the medical staff and during their last checkup he was resting comfortably. Inko handed the file to Recovery Girl and allowed her to look over it before handing it back to the doctor.
Nezu sighed with relief after hearing the doctor confirm that Izuku was indeed alright. "What about the girl that he rescued? How is she doing?" He had been curious as to who the girl was and how she got separated from her family.
"She is doing fine as well. She is a little dehydrated and slightly underfed, but is doing fine now that we gave her some fluids and a hot meal for her." The doctor seemed to hesitate a moment before getting the girl's file. "She doesn't remember her last name, only that her family is gone and her name is Raphtalia." The doctor handed the file to Nezu and Shouta read it over his shoulder.
They had marked said signs of mistreatment and slight malnutrition, but other than that she was healthy. Nezu and Shouta shared a look when they saw the girl's registered quirk was called Illusions. It stated that she could create an illusion with her hands of anything she could imagine or had seen for up to 3 hours. Both of them assumed that was how a bomb wasn't seen until Izuku had rescued the girl. They would have to talk with the two about the matter at a later date after they had been released from the hospital. Shouta handed the file to Inko, Nemuri, and Recovery Girl. All three grew furious as they read the girl's report. It listed her age as 7 years old and nothing was else personal besides her Quirk Registration information. Nezu sent the information to his friend in the police force and have him look for the young girl's family.
When Inko had calmed down a bit "Can you direct me to room 335, please? I would like to see my son." Inko had noted that her room was marked the same as Izuku's. The doctor gave her the directions and took the files back.
When they reached the room Inko and Nemuri went in as the others waited outside to direct the others inside when they arrived. When Inko saw the scene in front of her it caused her to forget that she was upset with Izuku for worrying her so much. She watched as her son slept peacefully, that the small girl had curled into his chest and was clinging to his shirt as if it was her lifeline. Izuku's arm was protectively wrapped around the small girl.
Inko looked over to see Nemuri with a hand over her mouth to prevent her from squealing at the sight with her phone in hand taking several pictures. Inko took out her phone to do the same thing and noted she had a message on her phone. She opened it up to see it was from Izuku. He sent her a message before he left to help Yu. Any feeling of being upset she had was gone with that simple gesture that he thought of her before running off. She moved over to his side and kissed him on his forehead and ran her fingers through his wild hair. Nemuri came over and did the same on his other side. Inko showed her the message he sent before leaving. Both of them sat down and waited for him to wake up.
As Izuku rested everyone started to arrive. Mt. Lady, Miruko, and Ryukyu arrived outside his door and were filled in by Nezu and Shouta as to what the doctor had said and what information they had received on the girl. Nezu was waiting to hear back from the local authorities on the girl and told them to go in to join Inko and Nemuri. They had a similar reaction to the sleeping duo and of course, took blackmail photos for later use and went to sit down with Inko. They were messaging back and forth to let him rest since he had earned it.
The girls were the next to arrive a few hours later. Momo and Setsuna had changed out of their dress clothes and into something more comfortable thanks to Momo Quirk. They picked up the other girls along the way and gave them a ride to the hospital. After finding their way to his room they were surprised to see the UA Principal and two staff members waiting outside his room talking. Recovery Girl gave them the short version of the doctor's report for Izuku. They were relieved to know he was fine and just needed rest from the day's events before he would be released.
They entered the room quietly and Momo and Ochako nearly squealed at the adorable sight both having a similar thought of how he would be like a father. Both blushed lightly at that line of thoughts and hoped that no one had noticed before both had snapped a quick photo of the adorable duo.
Mei thought it was cute and tapped DECA fox head to take a few pictures she could print out later along with the rescue photo she had obtained. Mei had known Izuku for several months. He was always nice to her and never got mad at her antics or when she would forget to eat or sleep for a day. He would always make sure she was tucked into bed when she passed out from exhaustion and had food waiting for her when she woke up. He could see his kindness in the way he protected the girl.
Kyoka had to admit it was cute at the scene before her and showed his kind nature. She knew someone was going to take a picture and post it in the group chat at some point. Before she made it her background on her phone that only she would ever see. She made a mental note to make sure her mother never saw it or she would never hear the end of it. Worse case if her mom saw it would be that she would want to invite him over to meet her Mom.
Setsuna smiled at this and was ready to mess with him with this cavity-inducing sweetness in front of her. She would ask Momo for a copy later when she went home. She was proud of him for not only saving the little girl but also comforting her. She knew there was more to the story, but that was for another time. She had to resist running her fingers through his hair in front of everyone especially, since his sister Rumi was really scary.
It was almost another 2 hours before Izuku finally woke up. While he slept a large conversation was going on in the large chat group talking about his rescue of the small girl Raphtalia.
Izuku started to stir from his well-earned nap. He was very groggy and wondered what was on his chest. As he started to shake the cobwebs out he remembered that Raphtalia had cuddled up with him after looking too adorable to say no. He smiled and ran his fingers through his hair and watched as her tail started moving like a cat as she tried to burrow in deeper. Izuku could have sworn that she was starting to purr, but he was still waking up. He gave a yawn and rubbed his eyes and looked around the room.
Izuku froze with fear at the sight before him.
In his room, he was surrounded by His Mother, Nemuri, Rumi, Yu, Ryuko, Momo, Ochako, Mei, Setsuna, and Kyoka blocking all means of escape. They all had the same worried look on their faces and he thought he was in deep trouble. Behind them, Nezu, Shouta, and Recovery Girl were sitting against the wall all drinking something and watching what was about to transpire.
Izuku took a minute to try and alleviate the tension in the room, but all he could say was. "Hey, guys, nice to see you." Izuku leaned back slightly in the bed. "I'm sorry for worrying everybody. I tried to get out quickly after reaching Raphtalia, but the teleporter was jammed and I had to find another way out." Izuku was starting to ramble. "I tried to call everyone after the explosion, but nobody could hear me." Izuku was starting to sweat.
Inko let out a sigh before speaking.
"Oh, we're not mad Izuku. Inko said calmly. "When I heard from Nezu what happened and watched you on the news. I was really worried. I am proud of you for saving those people and the little girl that is curled up with you. I nearly had a heart attack when the building exploded with you in it." Izuku couldn't help but flinch at that. "Needless to say I was glad to see you were alright and save Raphtalia from that explosion."
Izuku bowed his head in shame at the thought that he made everyone worry about him that much. He didn't know that they couldn't hear him because of the explosion. He was so focused on saving Raphtalia that he forgot about how his friends and family would feel if he had gotten hurt or worse.
“Now we all saw that you were an amazing hero today. You helped Yu keep a building from falling you saved 16 people and saved even more lives by taking that bomb into the air.” Inko looked around the group and they gave her a nod of agreement. "First off I wanted to ground you for what happened, but now I have had some time to think I can't punish you for doing a good deed. We are all truly proud of you son." Inko moved close and hugged him tight against her. “But I want you to try and promise all of us you won’t do that again anytime soon as scaring us like that again.”
“I will do my best to keep that promise mom.” Izuku looked to see everyone start to smile. He let out a sigh of relief that she was still standing behind him to support his dreams.
Inko adjusts on the bed enough to look him in the eyes. "Now until the start of UA I want you to go be a kid while you can. I want you to go hang out with your friends whether it is shopping, movies, or taking them into the Command Center to train with you, or letting them have access to the Zord piloting program. This will include group events and pair events until the start of UA. Also if you are called away you will message them before and after to let them know of your well-being. Also, I want you to get some extra training from Shouta and your sisters, but not every day or all day."
Izuku thought over the request and agreed that he could do that. At least he wasn’t grounded. He knew that Shouta, Rumi, and Ryuko were going to pound him into the ground with training, but it would be for his benefit. He would get to help with the local charity events that were for a good cause and it allowed him to make kids smile.
"Alright, I will accept your requests Mom," Izuku said, getting comfortable in the bed. "I want to apologize for making everybody worry about me and scaring everyone so badly. I am truly sorry." Izuku bowed his head and waited for someone to speak. When no one spoke he looked up to see they were smiling at him.
Inko moved to the edge of his bed. “I love you and again I am beyond proud of you for saving those people.” Inko hugged him again and kissed his forehead. “I want you to remember that we are all here for you. You are not alone in this anymore.”
Izuku nodded into his mother's shoulder and cried happy tears. He knew she had been behind him since the first day he showed her the Master Morpher. She had always encouraged him and made sure he knew it. Sometimes his old insecurities would creep back out and cause him to have some doubts about himself. Even with his sessions with Nemuri, he knew it would be a long time before he buried them for good.
Izuku pulled back and gave everybody in the room a watery smile. "Thank you, everybody." Izuku was interrupted by the light groan coming from his left side. He looked down to see Raphtalia starting to stir. She gave a big adorable yawn and opened her eyes to see a room full of people. She immediately 'eeped' and tried to dig deeper into Izuku to hide from them.
"It's ok Raphtalia. These are my friends and family." Izuku gestured to the room. "You already met my sisters." They waved at the small girl. She gave them a shy wave back before hiding her face. Izuku was sure one of them was taking photos, but he didn't want to spook her by saying anything.
Over the next 10 minutes, he slowly introduced her to everyone in the room. As she got more comfortable eventually she didn't hide as much but remained skittish and close to Izuku. Ochako and Momo greeted her with bright smiles and Momo even asked her if she wanted a stuffed animal to hold or play with. When Raphtalia said yes. Momo asked what kind she wanted. She seemed to hesitate for a moment and moved to whisper something in her ear that made Momo smile mischievously.
Izuku couldn't hear it, but from the looks on Kyoka and Rumi's faces, it was something they thought was hilarious. After a few moments of whispering, Momo smiled and left the room stepping into the bathroom and coming out with a chibi version of Izuku with his green hair, eyes, and freckles. The stuffed doll wore his Mystic Force Red Ranger suit minus the helmet. Izuku flushed bright red when Raphtalia squealed with delight and took the stuffed doll and hugged it tight to her chest. She thanked Momo repeatedly before hugging the doll again with everything she had.
"Aw look, she wanted a stuffed version of her hero." Rumi teased as she moved forward and ruffled Izuku's hair. Izuku was both happy that she saw him as a hero and embarrassed that out of everything she asked for was a doll version of him. "Oh, Izuku we need to get some more of these and start handing them out at public events to other kids."
Izuku's eyes went wide in shock that she would suggest getting someone to do that. "But I'm not even a Hero student yet. Who would want merchandise of me?" Izuku looked as everyone in the room gave him a deadpan look and pointed to Raphtalia who was content at the moment playing with the Izuku doll. Izuku could tell she was beyond happy with it and wasn't about to change that anytime soon.
Soon the adults were conferring on finding a way to get more of the dolls like the one Momo had created for Raphtalia and possible clothing to get made with his different suits and hand them out at children's hospitals or other events that allowed for donations to different charity events. Izuku agreed that he would be willing to do that and with permission from his mother and Nezu would show up as a Ranger as well. Inko sent a message to Nezu about this and how it could be accomplished. Momo had chimed in and had given Inko her mother's business card telling her she did a lot of charity work and would love to get behind something like that to help get it off the ground.
While that was going on Raphtalia got comfortable and started to come out of her shell more. She was currently being fawned over by Momo and Ochako. They were keeping her entertained as she animatedly retold her rescue to them. They gave the girls their full attention and Momo made a few smaller items for the girl when she asked so she could keep telling her story.
Mei had come over and after hesitating for a moment pulled him into a tight hug that nearly cracked his ribs. She held on tight until Izuku started to pat her back and she looked at him with teary eyes. "I thought I lost my best friend." Mei hugged him tight again "I don't want to be alone Zuzu."
"I am sorry Mei," Izuku said as he ran his fingers through her hair and she seemed to tense up for a moment before relaxing. "I am not going anywhere anytime soon." Izuku patted her head "I still have to test your inventions right?" Izuku watched her brighten up at his words and gave him a big smile in return. She moved back and wiped her eyes before she drew back and slugged his right shoulder "Ow."
"That is what you get for making me cry," Mei said, crossing her arms and giving him a stern look. "I let you off lightly." Mei was surprised a moment later when a pillow came flying and hit her in the face. She was stunned for a moment before looking at Raphtalia glaring at her and moved away from Momo and Ochako back to Izuku's side as if to protect him, still clutching her doll.
Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment before everyone started to chuckle at the little girl's actions. "Wow Green Bean you have known her one day and she is willing to protect you. You truly are one of a kind." Kyoka laughed as she moved closer to the bed and held out her hand for a fist bump from the young girl. She seemed confused until Izuku showed her how to do it. After watching it she seemed to understand and gave Kyoka a fist bump.
Most of the girls were trying not to squeal at the adorable site in front of them. Raphtalia looked at all the girls and then looked back at Izuku with a curious face. “Izuku, why are there so many pretty girls here to see you?”
That one question sent the group of teens into a blushing mess. The adults were trying and failing to suppress their amusement at this. Rumi and Yu were doubled over trying not to laugh. Nemuri was giggling as she watched her brother squirm at this. Ryuko bit her lip trying to suppress a laugh and wishing she had some popcorn for this show.
Inko had taken out her phone and sent a message to Nezu. After he received it they shared a look and he gave her a nod before stepping out of the room with a smirk on his face to make a few calls to get the process started.
Izuku was a blushing and stuttering mess from her innocent question. It took him a couple of minutes for him to be able to speak. "W-well these are my friends from the school and they just happen to be really pretty beautiful girls each unique in their own ways." Izuku said while blushing when he realized what he had said about the girls. He looked to see all of the girls blushing bright red.
The adults were now laughing out loud at the girl's reactions. Ryuko thought this was better than live television any day. Yu and Nemuri were whispering back and forth about something. Rumi was on the ground trying not to bust a gut.
"Smooth there Izuku. Real Smooth." Setsuna said, giving him a toothy grin with her cheeks a bright red. "If I didn't know any better I'd say you were a professional flirt." She gave him a wink that made him even blush more. She had been watching him interact with the small girl and she liked how gentle he was with her. She watched how he treated her more like an older sibling or a parent. This got Setsuna thinking of a way to make her idea possible. 'Better to ask forgiveness than permission right?' she thought to herself.
"Alright everyone has had their fun now let him settle down and we can talk before visiting hours are over," Momo said trying to get the blush off her face at Izuku's sweet compliment. Momo had been complimented before, but she could tell by his sincerity that he meant it.
After everyone had hugged him for being unharmed and lightly scolded him for scaring them with his near-death rescue. Everyone fell back into a comfortable conversation about Izuku and the Girls going to UA, movies that were about to come out, and Favorite heroes/heroines. Izuku talked with Mei and DECA about what caused the interference and was told they were looking into it. Shouta had to excuse himself he had to be somewhere. When asked he remained silent about it and patted Izuku on the head and told him good job.
Shouta left the room and sent a message saying he was on his way and smiled at the message he received from his date. 'Maybe it is time for a change.' He thought as headed to the restaurant.
Before too long, the staff tells everyone that visiting hours had come to an end. As everyone said their goodbyes for the night they stopped and hugged him with a promise to see him soon. Inko stayed to talk to the doctor for a bit. He stated that both would be cleared to leave the hospital tomorrow after being observed for the night. Inko kissed her son on the forehead stating she would be back in the morning. Inko also hugged Raphtalia and kissed her forehead as well. The girl smiled big and hugged Inko back tightly at the gesture.
After everyone had departed from the room. The staff brought food for Izuku and Raphtalia before the cafeteria closed for the night. After both of them had eaten their meal and got cleaned up for the night. A nurse helped Raphtalia with a shower and waited with her while he took one and got changed into something to clean. When he came back into the room he noted that someone had brought him a few books for Raphtalia. After getting back into bed and getting her settled into the bed beside him, Izuku reached out and grabbed the books and let her pick what to read. She chose two books out of the stack and made herself comfortable as Izuku read her stories to help her get ready for bed. Izuku was almost done with the second book when he noticed she was sound asleep. Izuku put the books on the tray and quietly moved them away. He turned off his light near his bed and pulled the covers over both of them.
"Good night Raphtalia and sweet dreams," Izuku whispered as he shut his eyes and went to sleep.
The next morning they awoke to the nursing staff giving them both a once over before going to finalize their release paperwork. They were brought breakfast and ate while Izuku found some cartoons for Raphtalia to watch. After they finished eating, both of them watched TV until Inko arrived with a bag of clothes. "Morning Izuku dear, morning Raphtalia," Inko said entering the room and taking the clothing out of the bag and laying out the clothing. Izuku grabbed his clothes and kissed his mother on the cheek before heading to the bathroom to get dressed.
As he finished getting dressed he saw a hair tie on the counter. He looked in the mirror and noted that his hair had gotten long and was almost to his shoulders. He hadn't made too much fuss with it and meant to go get it cut, but got sidetracked every time. He grabbed his hair and pulled it into a loose ponytail. His hair was still curled and wild, but at least it was out of his face for now.
He came out of the bathroom to see that Raphtalia was in a set of his old clothes that fit her. He recognized his old All Might Hoodie and that it looked cute on her. When she gave him a big smile when she saw him come back into the room. “Look Izu! Miss Inko gave me some new clothes and this hoodie is really comfy!” She exclaimed excitedly and started to bounce on her feet.
“Izuku chuckled and patted her head. “I can see that and it looks really good on you Raphtalia. I wore that when I was your age and now it is yours to keep.” Izuku watched her eyes start to sparkle with joy.
“Really?!” She asked, her tail swinging wildly as she pulled the hoodie tight to her chest.
"Yes really," Izuku said, kneeling to her level. "I think it fits you perfectly." Izuku hugged the girl and let her hug him as tightly as she could. It was nice of you to bring her some new clothes Mom." Izuku said to his mother as he broke the hug and stood up.
"Well, there is a reason for that dear. Inko said, pulling out some paperwork from her purse. "Nezu and I had a long talk last night and after we found out that Raphtalia had no family that could take care of her. We filed the necessary paperwork and she will be staying with us for the foreseeable future and if she wants to be adopted later then I am willing to do so."
Raphtalia stopped and looked at Inko with a shocked expression. "You are taking me to live with you and Izuku? For real?" She asked looking back between the two of them. When Inko smiled at her and nodded yes to her. The girls squealed with joy and hugged them both before cheering "I have a family!"
Inko and Izuku couldn't help but smile at her excitement and her wonderful energy. After getting her to calm down a bit when the doctor came in to have Inko sign the release papers and walked them out of the hospital. The staff thanked Izuku for his rescue work from the day before and called him a wonderful hero.
Izuku noted that as they got closer a large black Limo was sitting outside with the driver at the rear door. He noticed his mother was leading them all in that direction. "Mom, what's going on?" He asked knowing of only one person that would have a car like that.
"Oh, I will explain when we get inside dear," Inko said, gesturing to the waiting vehicle.
Izuku did as he was instructed and when the driver opened the door Raphtalia jumped in and Izuku followed her inside. As he moved into his seat in the middle of the seat he noticed that his sisters and the girls were also in the limo on the other benches. All of them were in casual clothes with comfy shoes and had a grin on their faces. Izuku realized too late that he was trapped when his mother got in and closed the door.
"Um, what is going on?" Izuku asked knowing that he was trapped like a rat in a cage when he heard the doors lock on both sides of him.
"Well after Nezu and I discussed taking Raphtalia into our home, I knew we would need to go shopping to get her what she needs. Clothing, a bed, sheets, toys, and so on." Inko replied, giving her son a smirk. "I messaged the girls and they needed to do some shopping as well and we decided to make a day of it."
Izuku knew that he had been set up and let out a defeated sigh "Let me guess I am the pack mule for today's shopping trip?" Izuku remembered what that sheet had said. "This is for making you all worried yesterday huh" Izuku watched all of them nod in agreement.
"Yep." Were their unanimous answers
"I thought so," Izuku said as he felt the limo pull away from the hospital.
8 Hours Later.
Izuku set the final bag down in the living room after what felt like an eternity of shopping with 10 women and one little girl. The first stop they made was for Raphtalia. They got her a variety of different clothes for her to try on and each of the girls added their own taste in clothes since the little tanuki had no real preference. Momo found a few fancy dresses that fit her perfectly. Mei found her some overalls and comfy t-shirts with gears on them. Setsuna found her dinosaur shirts and a similar backpack. Ochako got her some space-related clothing and pajamas with stars on them. Kyoka found her some clothes with music notes and a few sweatshirts and a swimsuit that was green with a gold music note on it.
While the girls were helping with the clothing, Inko was ordering the furniture for her room at the apartment that would be delivered in a few days. They had a spare room that was mostly used for storage, but this was a better use for it.
Inko let Raphtalia choose her sheets and blankets and she picked soft green sheets and a big red comforter. They teased Izuku on the color scheme since they were 90% sure it was from his hair and his ranger suit.
Nemuri went and grabbed a few stacks of children's books for her to read or to color in with a box of crayons. Nemuri made sure there was a variety of each and even grabbed a few different activity kits for her to play with. She watched the girl smile brightly at the bags and thanked her with a big hug.
Yu and Ryuko went to the nearby hero store and got her several hoodies of Mt Lady. Ryukyu, Miruko. Sadly they did not get her a Midnight hoodie for obvious reasons and Nemuri understood. They also took her to get several pairs of shoes for several occasions. She had insisted on a pair of red sneakers, which Izuku was teased for once again.
After they got all the basics and a few extras Izuku carried the large load out to the waiting limo and returned to find them preparing to start all over again. Their next stop was to a toy store and that resulted in 8 bags for Raphtalia. Izuku made his second trip and placed them in the vehicle and found them in the food court for lunch.
After a small break for lunch, the girl went shopping next along with his mother and sisters. This resulted in them trying on different clothes and asking Izuku for his opinion. Needless to say, Izuku was blushing for most of this. Raphtalia kept him company and chatted with him in-between changes. After they had gotten what they wanted from the clothing store, and he thought he was home free after taking a pen and marking everyone's bags out to the limo for his third trip.
When he returned his mother stated that he needed a new wardrobe and was dragged to get new clothing and pun shirts were unanimously banned by all. Even Raphtalia frowned at the puns and said "No. Not allowed." Izuku bows his head in defeat as he is turned into a living mannequin. When it is all over, and he takes his new clothing out for his 4th trip out towards the limo and sees the driver pat him on the shoulder for his pain.
After everyone is happy with their purchases and notices that it is getting late in the day they go out to get some dinner before going their separate ways. Everyone made plans for his time for his punishment and Izuku wrote everything down on a piece of paper to make sure he remembered where he needed to be. When he finally unloaded everything from the car and put his bags in his room he came back to find Raphtalia holding a sweatshirt he assumed was made by Momo. It was a dark green hoodie that looked like the Green Ranger suit printed on it. She pulled it on and Izuku took some photos and sent them to the group chat. As soon as the photo hit the chat it exploded about her cuteness and demanded more photos.
As Izuku and his mother got everything put away from the store and made sure Raphtalia was bathed and changed for bed. Her bed was still on order and she would bunk with Izuku for a few nights. Izuku got in bed and after she got comfortable had her choose a few books to read to her. Like the night before she fell asleep before he had finished reading the second book, she had chosen. Izuku placed it on his nightstand and gently moved to get comfortable and fell asleep shortly after his head hit the pillow.
Inko made her last check for the night and made sure the door was locked and turned out the lights as she made her way to her bedroom. She stopped in to check on Izuku and Raphtalia and smiled at them sleeping peacefully. She made sure to get a photo and closed his bedroom door. She let out a sigh and went to bed thinking that she raised her son to be a fine young man.
The next morning was filled with Izuku doing chores as his mother played with Raphtalia in the living room. Izuku did his chores without complaint and even ran to the store for his mother when she realized she needed a few things for dinner. He took Raphtalia to the park to let her run around and even chased her a little much to her delight. He had messaged his friends throughout the day and let them know what he was up to. They seemed happy with the pictures he sent and sent a few selfies with Raphtalia with her bright smile. Izuku went home as it was getting close to dinner time and when he reached the kitchen his mother was waiting with a letter for him.
"Izuku your letter came!" Inko exclaimed brightly wanting to know his score and if he had been accepted. She was sure he was, but she wanted to see the official paperwork. She handed it to him and he placed it on the table.
Izuku took a deep breath and opened the letter from the side. A small metal disk fell into his palm which he placed on the table. He looked at his Mother and Raphtalia before pressing the button to turn it on. A hologram flickered to life as an image of Nezu in his usual attire stood there to greet him.
"Hello, Izuku. I have to say I am quite proud of you, my student for, all of your hard work and dedication you have shown. I wanted to tell you in person, but I didn't want you to feel like I was playing favorites." Nezu gave a small chuckle. "Anyway let's get down to business. You scored a near-perfect score on the written exam and only missed a question that I put in myself and you only missed it by a small error, but I had to make it wrong. I have to say you were impressive at the physical portion of the exam with a total of 80 Villain Points!"
Izuku cheered at this as it was more than enough for him to get into UA on that and his exam score. Inko and Raphtalia cheered along with him. He was about to say something but Nezu spoke again.
"Now as UA is a Hero School we also have rescue points. A panel of judges watches and they award points for heroic acts beyond just fighting villains. You showed that in spades as you saved many applicants before the Zero-pointer arrived." Nezu vanished and images of him saving other students as the Quantum Ranger. Izuku heard a gasp as looked to see Raphtalia watch him take down the villain bots and save the others. Izuku scooped her up and held her up so she could get a closer look at it. She pointed out Ochako as he rescued her and carried her to safety. Then she watched as he summoned the Zords. "Your score took the longest to count up since you did so much good to your fellow applicants. You received a total of 80 Rescue Points!" Nezu smiled brightly at his student. "Welcome Izuku to your Hero Academia!"
The hologram disappeared with a screenshot of the leaderboard from the exams. Izuku's eyes went straight to the top of the list.

Izuku smiled at his name at the top of the leaderboard. He knew that his former friend would be losing his mind when he saw the results. Izuku turned to see his mother and Raphtalia cheering with all their might and pulling him into a hug. After a small hug pile and a cry session with a proud Inko. They decided to celebrate as a family and Inko went to make a special dinner. As Izuku played with the little Tanuki he heard his phone chime. He pulled his phone out of his pocket and saw that his friends had posted their results

Katsuki Bakugo was in a foul mood. He had shown those pathetic extras that he was the best and wrecked everything in his path. He was on his way to the top and nothing was going to stop him. He saw those giant robots show up and have a massive showdown. He didn't know what kind of quirk was behind it, but he was going to show how pathetic they were for needing them. He finally got his letter from UA. He knew he was going to be number one. He was greeted by Present Mic and He was annoyed with how long it was taking to show the scores. When they finally showed the scores he nearly had a stroke.
“DEKU!!!!” Katsuki screamed with all of his might.

Chapter Text
The next few weeks flew by as Izuku was kept pretty busy. He normally had Raphtalia with him when his mother had to work. He was either visiting one of his sister’s agencies or when he meet his friends for some kind of fun day. At least one of the two days he was at an agency they did a public event and people came out to support the Pro Heroine and Izuku. Nezu had contacted Momo’s mother Mona Yaoyorozu who was big in the charity and public event circles. After finding a manufacturer that could do the all work they had in mind for the apparel and it was going to be made with good quality materials they went to work on getting them into production.
Izuku came in with his Mother, Raphtalia and Momo and morphed into his Green Ranger, Quantum Ranger, and Red Mystic Ranger forms so they could get pictures of all of them and with Momo making a few basic prototypes helped to speed the design process up. After the first week, they went into production and his second week was mostly public events where they raised money for the local children's hospitals and other important local charities. The sweatshirts sold well and his stuffed dolls were very popular that they were highly collectible. It was later decided that the Yaoyorozu Cooperation would have the rights to his current and future Ranger forms that would be made into apparel, dolls, toys, etc. Izuku received one of each sweatshirt for himself along with some for his friends and family. Raphtalia was overjoyed at this and took all three of her dolls to bed or with her everywhere she went to show them off. She also wore the Red Mystic Ranger hoodie every chance and had even started wearing it to bed.
Mona sat down with Izuku and Inko to go over some other items there were things about releasing later in the year and some around the sports festival. Izuku agreed with her plans and made a special request for a few of the items. He asked that he keep this private as he wanted it to be a surprise.
After he finished his time at his sister agencies he made time to hand out with his friends. He went to the beach with them and with the tanuki in tow. She had never been to the beach and was a ball of energy when her feet touched the sand. Everyone had a good time and relaxed as the weather was nice and they had packed a lunch and listened to music picked out by Kyoka.
Setsuna teased Izuku about not wanting to put sunscreen on her and the girls but stopped when Raphtalia tossed a small shell at her and missed by a wide margin. Izuku scolded her telling her not to do that again. Setsuna apologized and the young girl seemed to forgive her but was wary of Setsuna for a bit. Ochako helped him teach Raphtalia how to swim and it took a bit of time, but she seemed to get the hang of it by the end of the day. Overall everyone seemed to have a fun day together.
Another day they hung out as a group was at the Command Center and Izuku loaded up the pilot training and let them have a turn using it. Raphtalia was amazed at this and Izuku gave her a tour of the base as Setsuna was using the Dragonzord Program much to her delight. For the most part, they all did very well on their first attempts and did better with additional tries. Ochako did amazing at the Astro Megaship program and even scored better than he did on her first attempt at the program. After everyone had their fun in the simulator they went for a walk towards the Zord bay where everyone had a great time.
When it came down to individual events it was a new experience for him to go out a try new things. Inko took Raphtalia with her to work on those days to let him have fun without having to watch her all the time. This was when the girls learned something important about their green-haired friend. He was an accidental flirt.
Setsuna had wanted to go to a museum with dinosaur exhibits and they had a special screening of Jurassic Park where she cuddle up beside him leaving him a blushing mess. Izuku had fun since he had never seen the movie and never had anyone to go to the museum with except his mom. Izuku had a fun time and learn a lot about dinosaurs and it was nice to see Setsuna as excited about them as he was about quirks. He got used to her flirting with him to get him all flustered and when he accidentally called her the Dinosaur Queen that left her a blushing mess for a while. Izuku waited with her until her ride came to take her home. He hugged her thanking her for the amazing day and she hesitated for a moment before kissing him on the cheek and hurrying into the car. Izuku was paralyzed at this and after his brain finally rebooted he went home trying to figure what just happened.
Ochako wanted to go to a planetarium that was hosting a new show. Ochako was a huge space nerd and walked him through the basics of stargazing and constellations. Izuku was amazed at her knowledge and listened to her with his full attention. During the show, she had sat close to him and helped him find the stars the host was talking about. It was nice and Izuku had a great time. He ended up calling her the Space Queen with all of her knowledge. Ochako had to stop herself from floating away at his innocent comment. Izuku walk her home after they had a quick meal at Ochako's request. He thanked her and wanted to go back again someday. Ochako was blushing heavily and mustered up her courage and gave him a peck on the cheek before heading inside her apartment. Izuku was a bit more prepared to handle this from his last outing but was still bewildered at the act and why she did it.
Mei had wanted nothing more than to have his help with designing new equipment for him. He helped her with some design issues she was having and was giving her feedback she could use to make improvements after trying out a few new inventions. He brought her a homemade meal and made her take breaks to eat and to chat so she didn't get burned out. She showed him a few projects that she had made with DECA and wanted to show them off. One was an updated communicator that had a screen like a modern smartwatch. She swapped out his current communicator one for the new one and Izuku was impressed with the improvements and told her just that. When she showed him what she had made for his hero costume and support gear he called her his Gadget Queen. Mei wasn't sure what to do with that except blush and start working on something else to make sure he couldn't see her face. Then she turned around quickly to kiss him on his cheek and spun right back to work on her current project.
Izuku made a note to call Nemuri for advice when she was available.
Mei was coordinating with DECA to upgrade and improve the Teleporter system to work even with interference and be able to teleport someone out in a life or death situation. It was currently a work in progress and Mei hoped to have it completed before the official start of UA.
Kyoka got tickets to her favorite band Deep Dope and offered the other ticket to Izuku to go with her. When he told her he didn’t know their music she dragged him to her place and introduced him to her music selection. Her mother thought it was hilarious and adorable at them listening to music together. Her dad on the other had to be dragged out of the room a few times. Izuku was introduced to a variety of music he had never heard of and asked for some more music to listen to later.
When the day of the concert arrived Kyoka's mother chaperoned their trip and they had a blast. Izuku enjoyed every minute of it and couldn't help but smile. As they were leaving the band's manager saw Izuku and recognized him from the TV. He asked Izuku to meet the band. Izuku accepted and was handed VIP passes for the three of them. Kyoka was on cloud nine meeting her favorite band backstage. She dragged Izuku over to meet them and became a total fangirl as she got their autographs and a group photo of her with the band.
Izuku thanked the band for letting them back here to see them and they got a few photos with him for their fan page. Izuku handed them a business card for Mona Yaoyorozu and told them to call her if they were interested in doing a few charity events. Their manager took the card stating they would defiantly give her a call. After hanging out with them for a bit it was time for them to go home. Kyoka was beyond excited about the day and thanked him for going with her. Izuku waved it off telling her it was his pleasure to hang out with the Queen of Rock. This sent her into a blushing mess and took a bit to settle down. When they arrived to drop him off she told him that he did NOT see her having a fangirl moment earlier today and let her jacks act like snakes to get her point across. Izuku promised that he would take that secret to his grave. Kyoka embraced him and like the others kissed him on the cheek before dashing inside the car.
Izuku sent another message to Nemuri asking when she was available for a much-needed chat.
Momo had been looking forward to a nice simple day. She had made plans to meet a café that would allow them to talk about quirk analysis and even had a few spare notebooks for them to use. Izuku had the same thought and they spent part of the afternoon deep in discussion and comparing notes on different quirks that had seen or read about. Izuku had made her question a few things about her how her quirk functioned and she made notes to try later when she had some free time. Before they knew it was time to eat and they put their notes away and talked about different things. Momo admitted that she loved to read and would spend hours reading to pass the time. Izuku gave her a list of books she may enjoy and could talk about them later after she had a chance to read them.
As the evening came to an end they paid the bill at the café and went on a walk through the park to stretch their legs and kill some time before her ride came to take her home. As the evening cooled Momo had realized she hadn't brought a jacket with her. Before she could make one Izuku took off his jacket and gave it to her. She blush at the kind gesture and took it and put it on to warm up. As they reached the entrance to the park where they had started her ride had just pulled up.
Momo thought she would be witty and took on a faux rich girl accent "Thank you for escorting me to my carriage home my kind Ranger." She gave him a slight bow and giggled like a woman from one of the romance novels she hid under her bed from her parents.
Izuku laughed and then took on a similar accent “It was my pleasure my lady to spend the day with the Queen of Creation.” He gave her a full bow. Izuku didn’t see her turn bright crimson at his words and had to calm herself or risk fainting in front of him. She waited for him to stand up and pulled him into a tight hug. He returned the hug and she kissed his forehead before dashing to her ride as soon as it arrived.
Izuku walked home with a smile and pulled out his phone to call Nemuri. Turned out his sister was free the next day. Also, he realized that he didn't get his jacket back.
The next day Izuku went to her office at UA after his training session with Shouta and watched as she was working on a stack of papers. She waved him in and told him to get comfortable. Nemuri stopped and sat across from him. Nemuri had an idea of what was going on but asked him to tell her what he wanted to know. Izuku told of each outing with his friends and how at the end of each one they kissed him on the cheek or head in Momo's case. Nemuri was squealing with delight from his stories and teased him about really being a true Casanova.
When he asked what to do since he didn't want to hurt anyone feeling or ruin his new friendships. It took him 10 years before he got any real friends and wanted to keep them his friends for a very long time if possible. He admitted that he was afraid of being alone again. Izuku hugged his knees to his chest.
Nemuri suggested letting it play out and see what happens since he was only known some of them for a short time and see what the future brings. Izuku agreed with that and wanted to enjoy his little remaining free time with his friends before school started. While this was going on Nemuri had sent a message to her private chat group of which girl her brother was going to end up with. Almost immediately the bets were rolling in. He talked with her in their normal therapy session and after getting some of the things off his chest.
Nemuri let him vent and talked with him about how he felt. He stopped for a minute and told her a story after he made her promise to never tell anyone else. He told her that when he was younger a girl he had feelings for acted friendly to him and made it seem they were dating, but after a week she humiliated him in front of everyone calling him 'a quirkless freak nobody would love.' After that, he was always guarded when it came to girls getting close to him. He admitted again that he was afraid of getting his heart broken again.
Nemuri pulled him into a big sisterly hug and told him to not let one girl turn him away from matters of the heart. He would find someone to open up his heart to and maybe it would happen sooner than he thought. She made sure he knew he was loved by his mother, his sisters, his friends, and especially Raphtalia. Izuku thank her and stay in the hug for a while.
They were talking about getting something special for Inko for Christmas as a group when Nezu sent them a message requesting him to come to his office with Nemuri. Both looked at each other and shrugged before heading to see what Nezu wanted.
As Izuku walked into the office he saw his Mother and Recovery girl standing near the desk. “Hey everyone, what is going on?” Izuku could tell they were having a serious conversation before he got there.
Nezu and Inko shared a look before she nodded to Nezu to speak. “Well Izuku I have received a request for your support of another rescue operation and your mother and I were discussing the possibility of approving it.”
Izuku stiffened in surprise. “What is the Rescue Operation?” he asked curious about them letting him go out again so soon after last time. He was not about to look a possible gift horse in the mouth.
Nezu turn on his TV to show a forest being devastated by a wild-land fire and the water being used to extinguish it was causing mudslides lower on the mountain area and people were being trapped as the roads were being covered in mud and debris. "It started a few days ago and the team on site is being overwhelmed and in need of support to battle the fires and clear the roads for more help to arrive."
Izuku understood immediately. "I can get to the site easily and then not only provide aid to battle the fires, but with my Zords, they can evacuate people and clear the roads for Emergency Services to arrive right?" Izuku was already working on the solution in his head of what Zords he would need to get the job done. "I take they saw my Zords and called you?
"Correct on both counts Izuku," Nezu said proudly. "I have discussed it with your mother and has decided she will accompany you along with Recovery Girl to take as many supplies as possible until the roads can be clear enough to relieve you and the hero team on location.” Nezu leaned back in his chair. “The team in question is the Rescue Team the Wild Wild Pussycats and for them to need more help is something.”
Nezu looked a Nemuri with a sad expression. "Unfortunately for you Nemuri, you will have to remain here as we go over the final roster and schedule for the upcoming semester."
"I Understand," Nemuri said sadly. She moved over to hug Izuku. "Please be safe." She ruffled his hair affectionately.
"I will, I promise," Izuku replied before breaking the hug and turning back to Nezu
Izuku smiled at his mentor. "If my mom is good with it then I will start making preparations for it." Izuku reached over and tapped his communicator. "DECA standby for Rescue Operation. Start of the Astro Megaship and have it set a course for UA practice field to pick up personnel and supplies." Izuku knew that it was the best way at the moment to get to their destination and start getting to working.
"Affirmative ETA on Astro Megaship arrival 45 minutes. I also have prepared the Zord teleporter for your needs upon arrival."
"Copy Thank you DECA see you when you get here." Izuku looked back to his Mother and Recovery Girl. "Are the supplies ready to be loaded?" Izuku had his notebook out taking notes for later and working out his plans.
“Yes. We were preparing to send them when a truck became available, but we will have them ready to get loaded up so we can get underway as quickly as possible.” Recovery girl replied nodding her head in approval. “I will make sure my bag has what it needs.”
Izuku looked over at his mother and gave her a smile "I'm glad you're OK with me doing this." Izuku moved close and hugged her. "I promise I won't let you down."
Inko returned the hug and played with his ponytail. "I know you will do great things son, but that won't stop me from worrying about you." Inko moved back and looked her son in the eyes. "You are a hero and I will support you like always, even if you scare me again."
"Thanks, mom," Izuku said giving her a million-watt smile. "I need to let my friends know what's going on and get my stuff packed up. What about Raphtalia?" Izuku asked wonder who would watch her while this was going on.
"Well, she will have to come with us." Inko replied, "No one is available to watch her, and I have already asked everyone I know before you got here."
Izuku thought for a moment. "Well, the Megaship has rooms and places for her to be with us, but not in the way and has a camera system to find her if the need arises," Izuku said thinking over its decks and systems. "Not to mention she would be able to keep the other children entertained if needed." Izuku gave her a wave and went to get his go-bag from his locker that Shouta insisted that he had packed to go at a moment's notice.
He then sent his friends a message that he was going out on another Rescue Operation and would be back when he could. He sent a similar message to his sister's as well and then to Shouta that he would be away until the start of class possibly. Once Izuku had finished with his messages he went to work planning on what Zords would be needed.
As he neared the practice field waiting for the Megaship to arrive with his bag slung over his shoulder he saw several pallets of supplies with UA robot standing by to load them onto the ship when it started to land. He looked up to see that beautiful ship start its landing process. He felt the downdraft as the ship slowed and gently touched the ground. He watched as the bay door lower and walked over and directed the bots were to start loading the supplies.
He was reading over the inventory lists when heard footsteps behind him. He turned to see His mother with her bag holding Raphtalia's hand with her little red backpack over her shoulders. Recovery Girl had her supplies and a small suitcase with wheels to make it easier to pull. He was surprised to Yu in her hero costume with a travel bag along with his friends with luggage in hand as well. "Hey, guys what are you all doing here?"
Yu raised an eyebrow at him and pointed to the ship. "I owe you one for the save at the tower and I volunteered to help out. Also when I heard you were flying a spaceship to them I made sure I got here as quick as possible." Yu gave him a smirk about pointed to his friends. "I met all of them outside the gates rushing to get here just to see you Little Brother." She gave him a wink as she moved over to talk with Inko.
"Are you guys here to see us off?" Izuku asked surprised to see his friends here on campus rather than be at home with their families before the start of the semester.
Kyoka walked over and gently slugged his shoulder. "When you said you were going out again on another rescue operation we all decided to tag along this time to keep you out of trouble." Kyoka gave him a smirk "Besides we decided it would be good to see heroes in action before school officially starts." Mei, Ochako, and Setsuna nodded in agreement.
Momo nodded "My mother called and got us a similar temporary license as you for this rescue only." Momo readjusted the strap on her backpack. "We wanted to make sure to help where we could and to keep you out of any kind of trouble." Momo gave him a mock stern look before letting it fall.
Izuku nodded and smiled at them all. "Well let's get everything loaded up and get everything else sorted so we can get underway soon." Izuku led the way into the ship. After getting room assignments figured out with some of them doubling up in rooms and after the last of the supplies had been loaded onboard Izuku lead everyone to the bridge.
Everyone was in awe of the ship as they walked onto the bridge. Izuku had been looking over the last of the pre-flight checks and looked over at Ochako resisting the urge to touch the pilot controls and panels on the bridge. He remembered looking up everybody’s piloting scores and she had done incredibly well piloting the Megaship.
Izuku got an idea and decided to run with it.
"Ochako, since you passed the Flight training for the Megaship how about you lift us off the ground and I'll have DECA set course for the Pussycats Base of Operations," Izuku said pretending to look over the checklist again as he watched her out of the corner of his eye stiffen and give him a wide-eyed look.
“What!” Ochako exclaimed in surprise. “You want me to fly us there?” Ochako wasn’t sure she heard him right. Sure she did well in the training, but she had never touched the real controls. She wasn’t sure why he would trust her with the controls this soon.
"You did better than I did and DECA will be your assistant if you need help." Izuku went over and started to type in a few commands as it made sure everything was locked up tight and ready to go. "The ship is all yours Ensign Ochako.” He gave her a wink and moved to the support panel nearby.
She flushed at being called that and let out a deep breath before her hands flew over the controls like an experienced pro as lights went green on the panel and powered up the engines. "Everyone standby for take-off. 3, 2, 1. Lift-Off." As she adjusted the control to lift the ship gently into the air and followed the digital guidelines DECA had put on the bridge screen in front of her. Ochako was smiling ear to ear at flying an actual spaceship! As they reached cruising altitude and sent the ship moving forward at a steady speed. "Course laid in and adjusting to cruising speed to destination." After cruising for a few minutes she hit the auto-pilot and turned to see everyone's stunned faces. "I guess I got a little too into it."
"Ochako that was amazing!" Mei said moving over to her friend. "You looked so natural with flying it and it was smooth take-off and I want you to teach me." Mei was almost bouncing with excitement at that possibility.
Ochako laughed “Well maybe after some more time in the trainer first.” She ran her fingers over the edge of the panel and thought this was the best day ever.
"DECA ETA to our arrival at our destination?" Izuku asked setting down the checklist and placing his phone back into his pocket after taking a secret photo of her piloting the ship with her smile. He was glad to make her happy with her piloting. Izuku dug out a box ear com-links for everyone to be able to reach him or each other while there were on location if needed.
“ETA is 2 hours at current speed. With slight engine adjustment ETA could be within the hour.” DECA stated on the ship intercoms system.
"Copy That DECA," Izuku said before looking at Ochako. "Can you adjust the speed with DECA to get us there sooner?" Izuku gestured to the flight controls with his hand.
Ochako grinned. “I am on Captain.” She teased as she adjust the controls to speed the trip up. After it was done she watched the ETA display change to 1 hour. “It’s done.”
Izuku nodded at this. "Ok, I can give you all a better tour of the ship before we arrive and let everyone relax a bit." Everyone seemed in agreement and gave them a tour of each deck of the ship. After showing recovery girl the med bay and Mei the engineering room that would have supplies to fix things as needed it was time for a quick lunch. Afterward, everyone got comfortable in the meeting room and talked comfortably until DECA called them sometime later that they were nearing their destination. Izuku once again handed control of the ship to Ochako again and waited for the ship to land.
Mandalay was tired from trying to keep everything running until help arrived. After seeing how bad of shape the area was in she called Nezu for help and was told help would be here in a few hours. She wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth. She was keeping the team updated using her Quirk Telepath and organizing local efforts to deal with the injured and sick. She was taking a drink of water when she heard a rumbling sound coming from the air. She nearly choked on her water as she saw a giant blue spaceship start to land on a large open area they had cleared away.
'Guys come back to my location if you can. I believe our help has just arrived in a spaceship.' Mandalay sent it out to her team. She waited for the engines to turn off before walking towards the ship. Well, this was not was she was expecting to see today.
Izuku followed behind Recovery Girl and Yu as they departed the ship. The ramp had extended as people came to help unload and to look at the Megaship. Inko directed the group of volunteers to the supplies and began the off-loading. Ochako, Momo, Setsuna, and Kyoka helped carry out supplies. Mei had her toolbox asking if anything was needing repaired and was directed by a volunteer to a couple of power generators that had stopped working the day before.
Izuku watched as Mandalay approached the group switching her attention from ship to them. “Welcome to our Base of Operations." She said returning her attention to the group. “I am Mandalay and I have been running things here while the team is out in the field at the moment. I am so glad to have some support arrive.”
“It is a pleasure dear. Now directed me to the medical tent and I will get to work. Izuku here will call whatever equipment you need and Mt. Lady will assist in any way possible.” Recovery Girl said politely as she rested with her cane.
"It's over there where our volunteers are taking supplies," Mandalay replied pointing to a larger tent near the generators Mei was working on.
"Thank you, dear. I see you two later." RG said before walking off towards the tent to start treating her new patients.
“Hello my name is Izuku Midoriya.” Izuku said as calmly as possible to the heroine. “If you can show me where you need my Zords, then I can get them set up and running as soon as possible.”
Mandalay gave him a nod. "Follow me." They followed her to a small tent that had maps of the area and where the current fire was located and where certain roads needed to be clear for additional help and supplies could come into the area.
After a small planning session, Izuku went to work. He summoned in the Lightspeed Rescue Zords and put them to work. Pyro 1, Hydro 2, and Aero 3 went to work on the forest fires when Haz Mat 4 went to work clearing the roads. Med Rescue 5 was parked near the Megaship standing by in case of a mass evacuation since it could hold a lot of people and equipment if needed.
Next Izuku summoned in 3 Turbo Rescue Zords the Lightning Fire Tamer, Thunder Loader, and Star Racer Rescue Zords. He sent the Fire Tamer to assist in handling the wildfires and sent the Thunder Loader and Star Racer to assist in clearing the roads.
Lastly, he summoned in two Zords from the Overdrive Megazord. He summoned in the Red Dump Diver and the Yellow Dozer Diver and sent them both to work on clearing the roads. That gave them 5 Zords working on the roads and 4 Zords battled the fires and One on standby with the Megaship in case they had to make a quick retreat. Izuku let out a tired sigh as he reached his maximum of Zords for the day. Technically he should count the Megaship, but it was flown out and running on its own power in ship mode. If he changed it to Megazord mode then he would need to be more concerned.
After putting the Zords to work and getting assigned a search area with Mt. Lady they went to work. Izuku morphed in Lightspeed Red Ranger and ran search mode in his helmet. Mt. lady grew to her full size and set him on her shoulder to help her find people. Most of the area had been evacuated before their arrival. The few stragglers they found were carried back by Mt. Lady while Izuku checked them for injuries on the way back to base for them to be checked out by Recovery Girl or his mother and given food and water. They continued to work until the sun was starting to go down and received a telepathic message from Mandalay to come back for the night.
When they arrived back with the last of their rescues and handed them off to be looked over they were both starving. After Mt. Lady returned to normal size and Izuku powered down both were tired and hungry.
They were both greeted by Inko and Raphtalia holding trays of food for them. Izuku ate his food as he listen to the young girl talk about her day as she helped Inko and got to play with a few children that were here. Izuku smiled at her and patted her in the head which made her purr with happiness.
The girls came over a bit later all tired, but in good spirits as they had helped out a lot today. Ochako was able to help move heavy equipment around with her quirk and was proud of herself for not getting sick from overusing it.
Setsuna was able to help grab items needed with her quirk to help Inko when she asked or when she was entertaining the children with 'magic tricks of separating and reattaching her hand or fingers much to their delight and excitement.
Kyoka was able to keep the kids entertained with sing-alongs and toys from the replicator after DECA instructed her how to use it. She had them in good spirits and even had Raphtalia help her in a few of the games much to younger girls' delight.
Mei had been able to fix the power generators rather quickly after having to give them a bit of maintenance and having DECA make a few replacement parts that she needed. She had gladly bragged that nothing blew up after fixing it. She had tinkered with a few things but kept that to a minimum until she was back into her lab.
Momo had gotten to do a bit more as she was able to create items that they were low on or to get some basic clothing for people. It wasn't a lot but gave her a chance to put her quirk to good use and see where her limits were. After several helping from the food processor on the Megaship she was back to normal.
Everyone was in good spirits when the rest of Mandalay's team came back to camp exhausted and wanting to rest. They looked in awe of the Megaship and Med Rescue 5 sitting nearby. After they got some food and sat down with the group to officially meet everyone.
Tiger spent some time talking with Izuku about his previous rescue and how impressed he was with his actions. He told him if there was a time before he had to leave he would like to spar with him. Izuku agreed that if there was any time he would be honored.
Mandalay was having a conversation with Inko and Recovery Girl thanking them for coming out here to give them a hand. Both women waved it off saying it was their pleasure and it was good to get away from time to time. Inko and Mandalay started talking about Raphtalia coming along with her and Mandalay said she would bring her nephew Kota by tomorrow for him to possibly make a new friend.
Ragdoll was having a good time talking with the group of soon-to-be UA students and gave them some advice to survive the first semester. She wouldn't tell them everything that could happen but did tell them to be prepared to work hard both physically and in their school studies. She also recommended they go have fun when they could or risk getting burned out.
Pixie-bob was catching up with old friends from school Mt. Lady about how she was doing since her debut so long ago. Mt. Lady told it was doing well and she was happy with her place in the ranking and she had a good public following with Izuku helping with her charity work. She showed off a few pictures of them together. Pixie-bob teased that she was being a cradle robber until she saw the disgusted look on her face. When she explained that she saw him as his little brother and nothing more did Pixie-bob understand and apologize to her friend.
As the conversations started to wind down everyone was more than ready to get some sleep. Izuku offered to let them have access to the ship's showers first. The Pussycats thanked him for his kindness and they went to grab a hot shower after two days of hard work. After they had finished and went back to their tents for the night thanking him for the luxury of a shower. Izuku went to the bridge to look at the process of having the road cleared while everyone else got the next round of showers.
Izuku was looking at the screen and nodded as DECA finished giving him the update. The roads had been 75% cleared and were projected to have them finished in the morning pending any additional mudslides or unforeseen complications. Izuku nodded and had sent a copy report to Mandalay. He rubbed his tired eyes when he heard a voice behind him.
"Izu," Raphtalia called to him in a tired voice. She was dressed for bed and holding her red ranger doll to her chest. Izuku had to admit it was an adorable sight.
"Hey, I thought you were already asleep," Izuku said moved in kneel in front of her. "Let me take a quick shower and I will lay down with you." Izuku walked the girl back to his room and told her to lay down. He grabbed his sleepwear and took a quick shower before coming back to find her fighting to stay awake. He scooped her up pulled back the sheets and laid them both down. After getting comfortable and pulling the covers over them both he lowered his head and kissed the top of her head. 'Good Night Raphtalia."
The girl burrowed in deep. "Good Night Papa." The tired girl mumbled and was asleep in seconds.
Izuku had frozen at the name. Did she see him like that or was she half-asleep? He cleared it from his mind. He moved his head to kiss the top of her head again. He felt at peace as he went to sleep.
The next morning was busy as everyone was getting breakfast and started getting everyone back to work. Izuku was trying to find some time to talk with Raphtalia later about last night but was called to a briefing. The morning briefing went better than planned when Izuku had told them that the roads had been clear this morning to let support come to them. He saw their looks of amazement and when he showed them the sky view thanks to Aero 3. There were glad to see that fresh supplies and volunteers would be here soon. The fires were almost extinguished as well. It was taking time to not cause another mudslide with too much water all at once. After the roads had been cleared he reassigned those Zords to make fire stops to control the spread and help deal with the excess water.
The mood in the room was high as they divide up the last of the areas that needed to be checked. Izuku was asked to fly over an area that was hard to get to on good days and they had been working towards that area. Izuku nodded and said he would go take a look. Yu had been requested by Tiger to help move some large rocks and debris that has been washed to the edge of a cliff and they wanted to move it as a precaution.
As the meeting ended Izuku hugged Mt. Lady and pointed to his earpiece "Call if you need me." He gave her a grin and when she pulled him into a playful headlock they both laughed.
“You better Izuku or I will have to embarrass you in front of your friends.” She teased and let him up. “Seriously I am a call away if you need me.” She gave him a wave as she went with Tiger to move some extra rubble.
Izuku morphed into Mystic Red Ranger and called for his Mystic Racer. He took off into the sky and headed towards his destination.
Izuku had been able to sweep the last area of civilians and reported back the area was clear. By the time he returned to camp he saw that supply trucks and additional personnel arrived. Izuku came in for a landing and powered down before going to help unload fresh supplies. He had switched his Morpher to one that gave him super strength. He was able to help get the first truck unloaded when his com-link chimed.
"Izuku heads up. Tiger and I have just been attacked by a couple of villains near our location. We have it under control right now but think he is with another group here to steal the supplies from the camp. I need you to mobilize the camp with Mandalay and hold off until we can get back." Mt. Lady reported to him. Fighting could be heard in the background.
"Copy that Mt. Lady." Izuku ran over to Mandalay and confirmed that she had received a similar report from Tiger via her headphones. She had sent out a message for Ragdoll and Pixie-Bob to return, but that would take a bit for them to arrive. "DECA activate Megaship defenses and prepare for unwelcome company."
"Affirmative Izuku. Defensive systems are online. Also, Raphtalia is currently onboard in the engineering area with Mei as her assistant."
Izuku sighed with relief at that. "Thank you DECA please inform the others to move all civilians that can move unassisted Med Rescue 5 and to have those that can assist help Recovery Girl and my mom move the sick and injured as well." Izuku was making sure that they would not be caught in any possible crossfire.
"I am on it Izuku." DECA acknowledged before sending out the message.
Izuku turned back to see Mandalay talking with her nephew and send him to go with the group heading towards Med Rescue 5. After Kota was safe with the group she turn back towards Izuku. "Let get as many people moving as possible and then we can set up the field to our advantage." Izuku nodded and the area became a flurry of activity. Everyone was directed towards the Zord and Mandalay and Izuku worked as security just in case.
"Mei is the teleport booster online?" Izuku asked as it was taking too long to get everyone moved to safety. This had been something Mei had been working on to improve the Teleporter system that could move a large group of people out of an area is needed. It was still in testing last he had heard about it from her.
"Well, kind of," Mei said after a moment of hesitation. "It can move people a short distance at most nearby any booster that it placed nearby until I find a way to stabilize long distance for larger groups." Sound of tinkering could be heard over that side of Mei working on something.
"Would it be possible to move the civilians outside the Megaship to Med 5?" Izuku asked hoping that it would speed this us.
The line was quiet for almost a minute. "I'm sure it could work for that. I have DECA double-checking my calculations at the moment." Mei replied before she could be heard breathing hard. "I am up on the Bridge. DECA confirmed my numbers I will start moving people now!" Mei exclaimed
Izuku smiled brightly "Mei you are amazing I could kiss you right now." Izuku relayed the ability to teleport everyone into the Med Rescue 5 until the villain issue could be taken care of.
Unbeknown to Izuku he had broadcast his conversation to everyone on their com-link. Yu started laughing as she was beating that crap out of a villain. Inko and Recovery Girl laughed at the semi-dense boy declaration. Ochako gave a pout. Setsuna laughed her head off (Literally) at this and planned on teasing him later. Kyoka rolled her eyes at his antics. Momo sighed and felt a pit in her stomach at that. Mei had turned into a blushing mess at this and went back to work to ignore her burning face. Raphtalia looked at Mei with a confused look on her face not understanding what was going on.
Izuku felt a weight lift off his shoulders as people were being teleported in groups to safety. He looked around to see there was plenty of open ground to fight without causing too many issues. He flexed his hands and took steady breaths to settle himself before everything started. It wasn't long before He heard DECA again. "Izuku Scanners are detecting 14 hostiles approaching from the entrance road."
Izuku let out one last breath before turning to face that direction. "Copy that. How many more civilians do we have that still need to be teleported?" Izuku changed his Morpher and watch Mandalay move to stand beside him.
"Last of the civilians are in Med Rescue 5 as we speak with Recovery Girl. Inko and the Girls have been teleported to the Megaship Bridge." DECA stated quickly.
"Copy that DECA and Thanks for all yours and Mei's hard work on that Booster." Izuku gave the Pro Heroine a thumbs up. They both took a ready stance. "I'll follow your lead Mandalay," Izuku said giving her a side glance.
"Works for me," Mandalay replied with a smile. "Hit 'em hard and fast so they can't do too much damage." She flexed her hand and claws came out of her gloves.
Izuku nodded and watched as they got closer. "DECA can you scan this group to see who we are dealing with." From what he saw they didn't look too strong, but one of them get him a bad feeling. The guy was taller than the other and had messy brown hair. He was sporting a sadistic smile.
"Copy that. Stand by." DECA replied "All low-level criminal, but one Sato Imasuji AKA Hulking B-Rank Criminal. Brother to Goto Imasuji AKA Muscular A-Rank Villain. Quirk: Hulking Strength- Allows him to increase his strength and speed the angrier he gets."
Izuku looked to see Mandalay gritting her teeth. "I take it you know that guy?" Izuku asked not liking the fact she was acting so stressed.
Mandalay forced herself to take a breath "His brother Muscular killed a hero couple Water Horse. They were my Cousin and his wife. Kota's Parents." Her muscles were tense and she looked ready to pounce.
"DECA call for backup. Contact Mt. Lady and let her know what is going on and see if Miruko or Ryukyu are available to be teleported. Also, contact Nezu and Midnight as well." Izuku was not taking any chances with this guy. He would rather have too much backup than none at all.
"It’s Morphin Time! Wild Access! Noble Tiger! Izuku took a similar stance to Mandalay as the White Wild Force Ranger. He flexed his finger to add claws to his hands. "Lead the way," Izuku said
Mandalay nodded and sprinted forward in a fast charge. The first villain was down before he could figure out what happened. Izuku dropped the second one who let out a cry alerting the others. The other low-level thug’s rand in and tried to take them out. They were pitiful and not prepared to fight anyone. Izuku got telepathic messages to tell him where to attack or move. It had proven quite effective against the group.
Izuku and Mandalay worked in near-perfect sync taking them out with ease. Izuku noted that their boss hadn't moved an inch just watched them get taken down. It was more than a little confusing. As they took out the last of them and turned to see Hulking clapping his hands together in a mocking gesture.
"Well, that was fun to watch this pathetic scum get knocked into next week." He said before laughing. "I brought them along for a laugh. I plan on beating my brother's record of killing more than two heroes." Hulking started to increase in size and muscles. He was living up to his alias. "If I kill the both of you, then maybe the rest will come out and I can get a total of 5." He started laughing like a maniac.
'Izuku follow my lead again. He might be big, but we can take him down together.' Mandalay sent to his mind. Izuku gave her a nod and to his ready stance.
Hulking lunged forward attempting to smash both of them into the ground. Mandalay and Izuku moved aside and both landed a kick to the back of his knees sending him to the ground on all fours. Hulking scrambled back up and screamed in anger as he moved to attack Izuku. Mandalay jumped and drove her knee into the side of his head sending his attack off course. Izuku followed up with an uppercut to his chin sending him sprawling on his back.
Hulking grew angrier with each blow growing in size and muscle mass each time. Izuku and Mandalay continued their method of attack until he was starting to show signs of losing steam. Hulking grew stronger, but they were faster. With each hit he received, he got angrier, and he wasn't able to focus his attention long enough to get a direct hit on either of them. They whittled him down with hit and run tactics until he finally let his guard down to try and smash them into the ground.
Izuku and Mandalay saw their opening and took it. Izuku gave him another uppercut and sent him up off the ground. Mandalay used Izuku as a springboard and performed a heel drop connecting to the side of Hulking’s head sending into the ground hard. They heard a groan letting them know he was somewhat still conscious.
"Man that guy has a hard head," Izuku said taking a breath as he watched the downed villain. He hadn't fought this hard except with training with Shouta. He was grateful for him pushing him so hard.
“I’ll say. I think I bruised my foot.” Mandalay stated while flexing her foot with a grimace. She reached to her team sent out a message to her team the villains were down at the camp. “Nice work by the way. I can see you were trained pretty well.”
Izuku rubbed the back of his helmet in embarrassment. "I had good teachers that got me this far." Izuku had groaned when he got extra training after he rescued Raphtalia, but now he was grateful for it. "Now let's get this guy-."
Izuku was cut off by a scream of rage for Hulking. They both turn to see he was staggering to his feet. His face was bruised and bloody. “I WILL KILL YOU BASTARDS!" he screamed before pulling a vial from his pocket and jabbing it into his arm.
“Shit! He’s got Trigger!” Mandalay swore as she told her team to hurry. “It’s a Quirk enhancer with makes the user's Quirk stronger and even more dangerous.”
Hulking grew taller hitting over 8ft tall. He was just as muscular as before, but his skin darken to a near black with a sheen to it. His voice deepened as he started to laugh again. “Now DIE!” he bellowed lunging forward much quicker than before. Izuku grabbed Mandalay around her waist and jumped back as Hulking fist slammed into the ground leaving a crater behind.
"We definitely are going to need backup," Izuku stated dodging another massive attack from the villain as he left another crater in the ground.
On the Megaship Deck.
Momo had been watching the fight intensely. She watched as he became a new Ranger and blew through the small fries with ease. She got concerned when DECA found a match to Hulking as a sibling to a known Hero Killer. She watched as they did hit and run tactics to bring him down. She cheered along with the others on the bright when the guy went down. They were beaming with pride at his skill and teamwork.
Sadly it was short-lived as the villain got up and used something DECA identified as Trigger and became ever more monstrous. Momo nearly flinched when they barely dodged and it left a crater. Now they were on the defensive. "DECA we need to help them. There much be something we can do?" Momo asked as she watched Izuku barely dodge another attack.
"Yes, there is. I was planning on a big production for this back at the command center, but time is of the essence. Ochako, Kyoka, Setsuna, and Momo please step forward." The girls did so quickly. "You all have the Heart and Courage to be a Power Ranger. If you accept I will grant you each a Morpher and you can help Izuku. Do you all accept?"
“Yes.” Was their unanimous decision. There was no hesitation in their voices.
"Excellent. Hold out your hands." DECA teleport each of them a Morpher. "Now go help our boy," DECA said beaming with pride at them. She teleported them outside at a safe distance.
"Be careful everyone," Inko whispered as she held Raphtalia close to her.
“Worry not Inko. Miruko and Ryukyu are being teleported in as well and I have something for them as well to help tip the scales in our favor.” DECA stated confidently.
Back in the Action
Izuku had dodged another devastating attack. He had held on to Mandalay since he was quicker in Ranger form. He needed to find an opening and go on the attack. He was still working on a plan when six people were teleported in. Miruko, Ryukyu, Momo, Kyoka, Setsuna, and Ochako. Izuku watched as something appeared on Miruko and Ryukyu's waist. "No way," Izuku muttered. He watched as something appeared in Mandalay's hands as well. "Go over to them and I will keep him busy hurry." Mandalay did as she was told.
"It’s Morphin Time! Dragonzord!’ Izuku changed into the Green Ranger and went on the offensive. He drew his dragon dagger and went to work.
Momo stood tall and held her Morpher in hand “Ready?”
“Ready.” All seven of them replied.
"It’s Morphin Time!” ( Go Go Power Ranger OST )
Go Go Samurai! Red Samurai Ranger!” Momo Exclaimed. She summoned her Fire Smasher Zanbato before resting in on her shoulder
“Dino Thunder Power up! Yellow Dino Ranger!” Kyoka Exclaimed. She summoned her Ptera Grips Daggers. She looked down and sighed at the skirt before ripping it off and letting it disappear into yellow particles.
“Let’s Rock It! 3-3-5 Enter! Pink Space Ranger!” Ochako Exclaimed. She summoned her Satellite Stunner and drew her Astro Blaster in taking a ready stance.
“Dino Charger Ready! Energize! Unleash the Power! Green Dino Charge Ranger!" Setsuna exclaimed. She summoned her Raptor Claw and Dino Saber. Setsuna looked at her skirt and sighed as well before stabbing her saber into the group and following Kyoka's example of removing her skirt.
"It’s Morphin Time! Tigerzord! White Ranger! Miruko Exclaimed. She drew Saba from her side. She joined Kyoka and Setsuna by removing the pointless skirt.
"It’s Morphin Time! Tyrannosaurs! Red Ranger! Ryukyu exclaimed. She summoned the Power Sword. She rolled her eyes at Miruko's actions and took a ready stance leaving her skirt in place.
"SPD Emergency! Cat Ranger! "Mandalay Exclaimed. She flexed her hands to form her claws before dropping back into a ready stance.
Hulking looked at the group with glee. "This will make me a legend to kill so many heroes in one go." He turned to face them ignoring Izuku. That was his mistake. He jumped up and slapped both of his ears causing him to scream out in pain. Izuku then preforming a spin kick to his left leg causing Hulking to drop to a knee.
"You may be big, but we'll take you down!" Izuku jumped back to join his fellow Power Rangers. "Mandalay like before coordinate us using with your quirk. Miruko, Ryukyu you both are more experienced than us so two lead the charge. We will follow behind you both to back you all up." Izuku realized that he had just given orders to 3 Pro Heroines. "Um sorry about that-"He started but was stopped when Miruko started laughing.
“It’s all good Izuku, It’s a very sound plan now let’s put it to use!” With that Miruko leaped in with a strong slash causing Hulking tough skin to crack. She spun and landed a roundhouse kick to his side nearly causing him to double over.
Ryukyu followed with a series of attacks to his chest causing more cracks. Izuku nodded and led the charge for the other rangers. With Mandalay coordinating their attacks had Hulking on the defensive. An armored gauntlet appeared on Ryukyu's left arm in the shape of her dragon claws. Allowing her to add additional slashes.
Kyoka formed her wings and jumped back and forth landing hits across his back every time. With each gliding attack, she changed the place of attack leaving more cracks with each strike. She used her quirk and her ear jacks exited her helmet looking armored and added in cracking his armor with each strike.
Ochako aimed her Stunner at his face that left him disoriented and unable to fight back effectively. She fired off several shots from her blaster to help chip away at him. She holstered her blaster and touched Momo back to allow her to move faster.
Momo moved in position behind Hulking and swung her Fire Breaker aiming for the back of his knees sending him sprawling onto his back. When he tried to get back up she swung down causing him to block with his forearms. Momo jumped up high without gravity until Ochako returned it allowing her to add more power to her strike with gravity as an assist.
Setsuna and Mandalay pounced on him and rained down slash attacks causing him to protect his face. They were tearing through his toughened skin until a small piece fell off revealing his real skin underneath. Hulking was also starting to slow down. Mandalay used her cat-like agility to slash him over and over again and still dodge his swings.
Setsuna used her Quirk and found that 4 waist height green mechanical raptors appears at her side. She let the charge of her pack and let him have it.
"Pour it on!" Izuku shouted as he charged up and landed a powerful slash on his side causing more pieces to start falling off. He charged up his dagger and sent green lightning at him. Causing more small pieces to fall off of Hulking’s body.
Hulking was still raging and was getting bigger allowing for them to dodge his slowing attacks and land more hits. He tried several times to shake them off but was too large to reach them. He swung at them in desperation but was too large to hit anyone.
“Let’s finish this!” Izuku cried as he charged up again and jumped forward “Dragon Power Slash!”
Miruko Leapt up and rotated in the air for her finishing move. “White Ranger Lunar Arc!” Miruko cried and she performed her signature, Axe Kick.
Ochako combined her Satellite Stunner and Astro Blaster to form the Satellite Stunner Booster Mode. She charged it up and fired at Hulking.
Kyoka jumped up and charged her daggers “Ptrea Power Slash!” She landed a large X pattern across his back.
Setsuna Charged up her Dino Saber and lunged Forward “Green Power Dino Slash!” She hit her mark across his chest before moving away.
Mandalay charged up her claws. “Cat Ranger Slash Attack!” She slashed him into another large X pattern across his chest.
Momo added her power disk to her Fire Breaker and charged it up. She jumped forward bringing down the burning sword into a devastating attack.
Thanks to Mandalay's coordination each attack against his back caused a small explosion. They looked to see the villain still standing until his armored skin fell away leaving his regular skin mildly burned and bruised. Hulking fell forward with a defeated thud.
All the Rangers cheered and celebrated their teamwork. Everyone hugged and high-fived at their victory. Ryukyu moved forward and after making sure he was still alive. Power down and place quirk restraint cuffs on Hulking. The group followed suit and powered down as well. They stopped celebrating long enough to restrain the rest of the villains and went to check on the civilians.
After it was safe for everyone to come out. Inko and Raphtalia rushed out and pulled everyone into a bone-crushing hug. Inko was beyond happy to see them unharmed and told them they were amazing heroes. Raphtalia was bouncing on her feet trying to recreate what she saw. Her eyes were sparkling like diamonds when she asked for more hoodies of the new Rangers. After promising to get her some later she settled down. Everyone was in good spirits.
Unbeknown to the group. A cameraman and his crew had come in with the supply truck to get some footage of the disaster for the news office. They were already covering it when the villains attacked. He left his camera outside and was recording when the fight broke out. Later when he went to look over the footage he knew he had struck gold. He called up his boss and told him about the footage. It would be later that night that they would broadcast it to the world.
DECA had completed a scan of the downed villain and grew concerned at something she had detected something from the villain. She needed to get a sample for further analysis, but she was sure there was something in it that was not supposed to be in this dimension. Something Monstrous and Evil.

Chapter Text
When the rest of the Heroes arrived back at the camp with their villains tied up being dragged behind them. They were more than a little surprised to see more villains already tied up and waiting to be picked up by the authorities.
After seeing Ryukyu and Miruko with a Morpher at their waists Mt. Lady was more than a little jealous. Izuku pulled her into a hug and said that he was sure there would come a time she would get one. That she was a great Heroine and had come a long way in the time he had first met her. He told her she would be an amazing Ranger. Mt. Lady got emotional at his words and pulled him into a sisterly hug, which embarrassed him greatly as everyone else snickered at his predicament.
It wasn't long before a small celebration broke out. Inko had requested that they get a group shot of them with the Morphers visible so she could make copies and frame it for them later.
Before long Mandalay came by to hand him a pair of Cat-like headphones and agreed that he would be made an Honorary Member of the Pussycats. He got his photo taken with the team wearing them.
The rest of the evening went well and everybody was in good spirits. Setsuna was overjoyed that she could create pet Raptors in her Ranger form to do her bidding. Ochako was interested that she could use her quirk through her gloves and wanted to test out what its limits were. Kyoka wanted to test out her Ptera Scream when she had a chance to do so safely. Momo wanted to train some more with her Zanbato. She had been trained in the use of a katana in her youth, but she wanted to master her new weapon. Mei was working happily on adding the final touches for the new Rangers communicator watchers so she could give them to everyone.
It was at this point that Setsuna started to get mischievous with her friends.
"Oh Izu. If memory serves you promised Mei here that you would give her a kiss for that teleport booster she built." Setsuna gave him a wicked grin at this. Both Izuku and Mei went bright red at this. Miruko and Ryukyu started snickering together.
“I-I-I meant I wouldn’t want to assume anything.” Izuku was bright red at this trying to find a way out of this. Izuku was not sure how to properly handle this and he could tell he would get no support or aid from his sisters.
Mei was blushing as she stood up and moved closer to him. “I am waiting Zuzu.” Mei keep her eyes up at the sky as if it was the most interesting thing in the world. She pointed to her cheek with a finger. “You said you would and I did deliver.”
Izuku stood and took a deep breath before moving closer to Mei. He moved to kiss her cheek when Miruko called her name at the last second making her turn directly into Izuku's path. Izuku's lips connected with Mei. Both of them tensed at the contact as they stared into each other's eyes.
Miruko smiled at her prank working to get the two adorable nerds to kiss. Ryukyu gave her an elbow before laughing herself. Both of them nearly fell over from laughter. Yu giggled at their shy display.
Inko was smiling big and captured the shot to send to Nemuri later.
Setsuna facepalmed at her antics backfiring like this. She thought he would weasel his way out of it and be a blushing mess. She had wanted to be the one to kiss him.
Ochako blinked a few times and let out a sigh. She wanted to be angry, but Mei was the victim of Miruko and Setsuna's pranks. She needed to adjust her plan accordingly.
Momo watched in fascination as Izuku and Mei kissed due to her friend’s antics and his sisters seeing an opportunity to prank him. She planned on talking to Izuku when they got home about the feelings she was having.
Kyoka smiled at this and a part of her was envious of her pink-haired friend. She was as innocent as they come and so was the green bean. She knew this was made to happen by two pranksters. She would have to keep an eye on things. She would need to find some time to talk to him.
Izuku stood frozen as he looked into Mei's eyes and pulled back after their lips touched for nearly 30 seconds. 'Mei I-"Izuku started but she placed a finger on his lips. He watched as she gave him a genuine smile.
"Thank you Izuku," Mei said softly she turned and skipped the entire way to the back to the Megaship without a care in the world.
Everyone looked at Izuku as he was still bright red from his kiss with Mei. He wasn’t sure what to do with that and was sure steam was pouring out his ears.
After that everyone decided to call it a night to get some rest after their stressful day and went to bed. Izuku had gotten out of the shower to find Raphtalia already asleep in his bed. He smiled and curled up beside her and kissed the top of her head.
The next morning was a lot of preparation for them to leave in the afternoon for their return to UA. Now that the relief supplies and support crews had arrived along with the roads being cleared of debris, it was time for them to depart.
Setsuna let out a sigh as she went back to work and had just finished up restocking the medical tent when she saw Raphtalia looking pretty upset, wet, and covered in mud.
“Hey kiddo what happened to you?” Setsuna asked wiping some of the mud from her face with a rag. It looked like she had been in a scuffle with someone.
Raphtalia huffed angrily. “Kota came over after his aunt dropped him off this morning for us to play together. He was fine for a little while, but when I told him Izuku and the others were my Heroes, he called me stupid for believing in heroes.” Raphtalia had tears in her eyes. “Then he said heroes just die!” The little girl cried a little harder. "So I punched him and we fought until he threw mud in my face before running away."
Setsuna pulled the girl into a hug and ran a hand through her hair. 'It's ok." Setsuna said picking the girl up and carried her to the ship. "Let's get you cleaned up and into some clean clothes." Setsuna felt her nod into her shirt. She got her inside and got her washed up. After getting her changed into some clean clothes and using a comb to fix her hair she started looking better. "There good as new."
Raphtalia hadn’t said much during that time. “Can I ask you a question?” She askedplaying with the hem of her shirt looking at the ground.
"Sure Raphtalia. What do you want to ask?" Setsuna knelt in front of her to look the girl in the eyes. The little girl seemed to be wrestling with something. Setsuna made sure to comfort the girl until she was ready to talk with her.
"Before I fell asleep the other night I called Izuku Papa," Raphtalia said quietly. "I heard from the other kids the day before that a Papa is someone who raises and takes care of someone." Raphtalia looked at Setsuna with big teary searching eyes. "Will Izuku be mad if I call him Papa?" Her voice was so small she almost didn't hear it.
Setsuna had never thought much about having children later in life. She was only 15 for crying out loud! This little girl had flipped on her maternal instincts switch in a big way with her question. She scooped the girl up and held her closely. "Raphtalia I am sure that if you ask Izuku he would let you call him that in heartbeat. I know he cares for you like your family. I've see him showing off pictures of you on his phone." Setsuna watched the little girl look up at her. "He brags about you all the time."
“Really?” Raphtalia asked her voice a little stronger. Her eyes were sparkling brightly like stars in the sky at this. Her tail was swinging a mile a minute with excitement.
Setsuna nodded running her hand through her hair. “Really.” She said pulling Raphtalia back into a hug. “Now let’s get you a new shirt and go talk to Izuku ok?” She felt the girl nod into her shirt. Setsuna walked to the clothing replicator to make a special shirt.
Izuku had looked over the last of the wildfire areas from Aero 3 that had been extinguished earlier that morning. He had DECA recall the Zords back and started to help finish unload the remaining trucks of supplies. He had just unloaded the last of the boxes when he saw Setsuna carrying Raphtalia in his direction. He dusted off his hands and head towards them. "What is going on Setsuna?" He asked concernred.
"Little one here got into a bit of a scuffle with Kota and was upset," Setsuna informed him. Setsuna told him what Kota had said to her that lead up to their fight. The entire time Raphtalia was clinging to Setsuna like a lifeline. "She wanted to talk to you about something."
Izuku crouched down to a knee and patted her head "What wrong?" He patted her head until she let go of Setsuna and showed him the shirt she was wearing. It read I <3 Papa. Izuku nearly froze when he saw it. He remembered her words from the other night.
“Will you be my Papa?” Raphtalia asked eyes full of hope and anxiety.
Izuku looked at her and thought back to how he had looked after her more as a daughter than as an older brother. He scooped her up and held her close. "If you want me to be then I will be your Papa." Izuku watched her eyes brighten and smile just as brightly as she hugged him tight and cried happy tears.
Setsuna watched all of this and took a picture of them for later on. She had to admit it made her a bit teary-eyed to see this. She would deny it if anyone ever asked her. She was about to walk away when Raphtalia broke the hug with Izuku and move to hug her. "Thank you, Suna!" She exclaimed with happy tears.
Setsuna felt her heart skip a beat at this level of cuteness. “Any time kiddo I am just a phone call away if you need to talk.” She replied hugging the girl tight and made a vow to always protect his little girl. ‘Am I becoming a mama dinosaur?’ she wondered as she released Raphtalia from the hug and watched her run back to Izuku who scooped Raphtalia up causing her to laugh and giggle.
"Alright let got talk to G-Grandma about this." Izuku stumbled over the words and hoped that she wouldn't kill him for this. Izuku turned back to Setsuna with his signature smile. "Thank you for help Raphtalia. You are going to make an amazing Mom someday." Izuku turned his head toward his mother talking with Raphtalia as they walked away.
Setsuna stood like a statue at his comment. She knew she was blushing hard and felt like her face was on fire. She had a small moment where she imagined him holding a little curly green hair girl that looked like her. She imaged he was carrying their daughter. She slapped her face at this and felt her heart almost beat out of her chest. 'Oh, God." What all she could think to say.
Inko was ecstatic at being called grandma by Raphtalia. After Izuku came and talked to her about what happened between the two children and how she wanted Izuku to be her Papa. She went into Grandma Mode and hug her tight and promised to spoil her rotten. She had been a little concerned that he was wanting to become her father figure so young, but he was mature for his age and Raphtalia needed this. Izuku and Inko talked it over and would get the adoption papers taken care of when they got back to UA. Inko was fussing over her making all sorts of plans for them to do together. Raphtalia was smiling ear to ear bouncing around without a care in the world.
"Sorry to bother you," Mandalay said as she walked into view with a stern hand on Kota's shoulder. "I got the story out of him about what happened." Mandalay bowed her head "I am so sorry for what he did."
"Izuku gave her a small smile, "It's ok they are both young and these things happen." Izuku gestured for Raphtalia to come over to him. She let out a huff and stood beside Izuku glaring at Kota. "Raphtalia, please apologize to Kota for hitting him.” The girl looked like she was about to protest, but let out a loud dramatic sigh.
"Fine! I am sorry for hitting you, Kota." Raphtalia's tone was monotone and she kept glaring at him. She kept her hands in a tight fist. "Even if you deserved it." She mumbled under her breath. Kyoko and Rumi had heard her and had to suppress a snicker.
Kota glared back just as hard before Mandalay patted him on the shoulder and he let out a loud sigh as well "Ugh I am sorry for what I said and throwing mud at you." His words were forced and he refused to break his return glare.
Izuku and Mandalay both let out a sigh as well at their antics. They weren’t going to be friends anytime soon. Izuku decided to try a diplomatic approach with him. As he moved to a crouched position in front of him to talk. His sister and friends arrived to see what was going on. Setsuna was still sporting a light blush from their earlier conversation.
"Hey Kota my name is Izuku." He said extending his hand in a friendly gesture. "I didn't get a chance to meet you with everything that was going on." Izuku smiled at him as he seemed to extend his hand to shake his hand.
Until Kota drew back and punched him in the groin.
Izuku doubled over to the ground as his friends rushed to check on him. Mandalay facepalmed at this and let out a sigh of frustration. Raphtalia growled and lunged at Kota taking him to the ground and started to wail on him. Kota brought his arms up to protect his face.
Momo and Ochako moved quickly and pulled her off Kota. Raphtalia was still trying to get at him as she growled and tried to get loose. "No one does that to my Papa!" she screamed still trying to break get out of Momo and Ochako's grasp.
This had an odd effect as everybody looked over at Raphtalia with confused looked except Setsuna and Inko. “Papa?” They asked together in confusion looked at Inko for answers as Izuku was currently indisposed on the ground.
"Well, it's a bit of a story." Inko laughed awkwardly as the girls tended to Izuku by giving him an Ice pack for his groin. After telling them the full story about her initial scuffle with Kota and her asking Izuku to be her Papa. The girls were awed at that precious request from the girl. Mt. Lady, Miruko, and Ryukyu all high-fived at being Aunts and all called dibs before arguing on who would be the cool Aunt.
Izuku was just starting to feel better when Raphtalia looked over and asked him a question. “Since you are my Papa, then who is my Mama?” Her question was completely innocent, but it had an effect on the group.
Inko covered her mouth to muffle her laughter at her 'innocent' question. Mt. Lady and Ryukyu were snickering at this. Miruko laughed out loud to her amusement. Setsuna blushed as she remembered her thoughts from earlier with her fantasy of a little girl of her own. Ochako blushed red at the thought of having someone call her Mama and wasn't opposed to it. Mei flushed red thinking of the kiss from last night and gave her a new way of thinking about babies with her Zuzu. Kyoko flushed dark red at imagining Izuku being that romantic with her and acting as Raphtalia's Mom. Momo nearly passed out from her blush think out being called Mama by green or dark-haired children running around her.
Izuku was a stuttering mess and had the perfect impression of a tomato. He cleared his throat to give him a moment to calm down. "Well, there is no Mama at the moment since I am not seeing anyone romantically just yet." Izuku was trying to find the fastest way to end this conversation. "Someday though you will have someone to call you can call Mama." Izuku smiled at her to reassure her hoping that would end the conversation.
Raphtalia seemed to think on his words for a moment before as she asked another question. "Why not see one of your pretty friends that are girls so I can have a Mama now?" She stated like it was the simplest solution in the world. She showed just how innocent she was with her question. "You kissed Mei last night."
At this Izuku.exe has ceased function again. Please wait while it reboots. Izuku fainted. The girls all sporting blushes rushed to check on him. The adults no longer hid their amusement at this. Raphtalia was confused about what was so wrong with what she said.
It was a little while later Izuku had been able to regain consciousness and told her they would talk about it later so he could finish getting the ship ready for take-off. Mandalay tried to give him a personal apology for her nephew's actions, but he waved it off as he was in pain and needed time to come to terms with his parent's death. Izuku gave her a communicator and told her to call if she ever needed a hand. They shook hands as he went on board the ship. He made a small at the replicator and made something real fast.
He arrived on the bridge to find everyone milling around except for Ochako who had finished the pre-flight checks and had the console in the green. She still looked so natural behind the flight controls. “Everything ready for our departure?” Izuku asked already knowing the answer. He had glanced over to see everything already taken care of.
"Yes, everything is in the green and ready for our return trip to UA," Ochako replied with a chipper tone. "Awaiting your word." Ochako gave him a cheeky smile.
Izuku chuckled and closed and locked the hangar door before tossing a small silver piece to her. She caught it on a reflex. "Take us, home Captain.”
Ochako looked at the silver tag. Captain O. Uraraka looked at him in surprise. "Captain?" She asked in surprise.
Izuku gave her a shrug. "Well since you are the Pink Space Ranger and can fly the ship like you were born at the controls. It only made sense you would take good care of her." Izuku gestured to the ship with his hands. "Now let's get on our way home," Izuku said turning towards the main screen.
Ochako smiled almost as bright as the sun when she started her countdown to lift off and headed back to UA. She wanted to get to know the ship better and maybe give her a name beside the Megaship. It was hers after all. She set it on Autopilot and pinned the tag to her shirt with pride. She watched as Izuku picked up his new daughter and let her look at the screen from his eye level pointing out different things to her. She felt her heart skip a beat as he was so sweet to her and she couldn't help, but admire him for it.
UA
Midnight let out a tired sigh as they went over the class schedules for the past several days and finalized the rosters for all the classes and years. All that was left was the 1-A and 1-B class roster and she was home free. She had checked her messages before they got started and saw that several new Rangers had made an appearance with 3 of them Pro heroines. She sent a message to Yu for details and smirked when she saw Izuku and Mei kiss. She nearly squealed out loud when she found out she was an Aunt and the adorable picture they sent her of Inko, Izuku, and Raphtalia. She knew she was going to have a battle for the spot of cool Aunt with her niece. She wished she had been free of this to have gone with them.
She was brought out of her amusement when Nezu had cleared his throat.
"Now that we have all the other classes taken care of we not get down to the two Hero course classrooms." Nezu had a stack of folders in front of him. "Now I have the current roster set for both classes and taking your request and choices for each class. Here you are, gentleman."
Shouta and Vlad King took their rosters and quickly scanned over them looking for one name in particular. Both men reached the end of their list before looking at Nezu. “Where is Izuku?” they asked simultaneously.
Midnight gave them a confused look until they slid both lists over to her to scan each of them.

(R) Recommended Student
(BD) Board Decision
"What the hell?" Midnight asked as she looked just as confused as fellow teachers. "Why are there 5 recommended students and why was Izuku left off the list? He was the highest-scoring candidate from the exams?" She knew most of these names from the testing. Minoru and Monoma scored the lowest on the written exams and barely had enough points for them to consider for Hero Class placement. Bakugo scored well, but his demeanor towards other students put him at the bottom of the list. Only Shouta, Midnight, Recovery Girl, and Nezu knew about his past with Izuku to keep scoring him as unbiased as possible. She was unfamiliar with the name Melissa Shield.
Nezu let out a tired sigh. "After considering your requests for students I submitted the final roster to Board for their approval. They called me in to say that they had made changes to the roster which is the very lists I gave you both." Nezu watched the teachers in the room look incredulous that they made changes like this. "Chairman Monoma stated that Izuku cheated during the exam using unapproved equipment and removed him from the Hero Class Roster. He removed another candidate to place his Nephew in 1-B after 1-A was already filled after he approved the placements for Bakugo and Minoru to be placed in 1-A.”
Shouta slammed his fist into the table "He had approval from you and that is all that is required by our school charter! He didn't cheat! He beat his nephew and wanted to block him from getting into class!" Shouta was several different kinds of furious. "I didn't want Bakugo in my class. He has no concept of teamwork or thinks of anything else, but fighting head-on. Minoru has multiple red flags in his file from middle school of harassment and inappropriate conduct with female students." Shouta was just building steam "I don't even know who Melissa Shield is supposed to be!"
Vlad king wasn’t much better. “My choice of student was bumped because Monama’s Uncle pulled a few strings to get him into my class instead of General Studies Class?” Vlad really wanted Izuku in his class and had left his last slot open for him.
The other teachers were joining in on this adding their own opinions to this.
Nezu spoke up for all of them to hear. “I voiced those same concerns and I was overruled. I have a lot of leeway and authority, but I even I still answer to their decisions. Both Minoru and Bakugo were vouched for by friends of the Chairman and The obvious for his nephew.” Nezu had to grit his teeth in frustration at that man. I have no proof at the moment, but I am sure the real reason he block Izuku was for being Quirkless.”
Midnight gasped in shock as did the rest of the teachers. “That not fair to Izuku for being born different and he was graded by teachers that didn’t even know him for his points. There has to be something we can do.”
Nezu gave her a nod. Yes, I will get back to him shortly. To answer your question Shouta about Miss Shields." He slid a file in front of him. "She was recommended by All Might himself in a private test for her placement in UA. She is apparently a late bloomer and is the daughter of famous inventor David Shields."
Shouta groaned at the mention to that blonde moron. He had not had a high opinion before meeting Izuku, but after he heard his encounter with the man it dropped considerably. "So All Might goes to bat for her and suddenly the board bends over backward to appease him and tosses another student who earned their way to the wayside to be placed in my class.?" He slid the file to Nemuri and focus on his boss.
"Unfortunately that is exactly what happened. Now rest assured that I have my special privileges as the principal that I don't use very often, but I figured it was time to do so." Nezu had a mischievous grin on his face. Nezu slid them all a copy of the current UA charter and highlight a few lines. "Izuku has been my student for the last 10 months and I am using my ability to have him continue to be my student as he attends BOTH Hero Classes along with a few regular lessons to let him interact with his peers."
Shouta, Midnight, and Vlad all smiled at their boss’s cunning. They all knew he was always a few moves ahead of everyone else. They were sure that he would at least he was planning the downfall of the chairman at a minimum and the whole board as a nuclear option.
"You are a genius boss." Midnight said as she couldn't wait to see the smug bastard's face he found out about Nezu's plan.
"Thank you Midnight, but I won't give you a raise for your praise." Nezu chuckled as she gave him a faux snap of the fingers in disappointment. "This will allow for Izuku to help improve both classes as his analytical abilities are incredible and he has only gotten better since he has become my student."
This caused a shiver to go down most of the staff’s spine in terror of a possible another Nezu in the school.
"Now then, Shouta and Vlad you cannot expel students from your class on the first day unless you have documented cause or a serious violation of the rules. Shouta that means no expulsion on the first day for 'having no talent.' Vlad that means you can't toss Monoma out for his special treatment or his attitude." Both teachers slumped and mutter a string of curses at what they had planned. Both men got what they wanted in a roundabout way which was Izuku.
"Where is our new teacher anyway? Shouldn't he be here as well since he starts teaching this semester?" Shouta asked slightly annoyed at him not showing up at all during their prep time.
Nezu gave him a frown. "He is closing up his agency office as we speak to live on campus. He will be here before the start of the semester." Nezu had been very annoyed that All Might had waited until the last minute for him to close his office. He had been keeping tabs on all his activates for the past 10 months. He had been spending a lot of time at I-Island personally training Melissa Shields for her place at UA. "Now let's get this done." Everyone agreed to finish this up quickly as possible.
The trip back to UA was relaxing with everybody in good spirits. His sisters had changed out of the hero costumes and got comfortable on the bridge. Raphtalia was currently listening to a story Ryuko was telling her early days as a heroine and the young girl was hanging on to her every word. Rumi was teasing Yu about getting a Morpher gesturing to her belt. Yu pouted at this but bragged she got to ride on the Megaship first. Everyone needed the calm trip back after the excitement of the last few days.
When they arrived at UA to drop everyone off his friends were surprised to see their parents there to take them home. Everyone said their goodbyes and made plans to talk later. After everyone was off the Megaship DECA teleported it back to the Zord Bay.
Ochako gave her ship a sad wave as she watched it disappear.
Izuku had carried a sleepy Raphtalia to his mother's car and sat with her in the back seat. Inko had gotten it several months ago to get to and forth to work. After getting home and everyone getting cleaned up they all went to bed in need of a good night's sleep. Raphtalia was tucked into her bed and was sleeping soundly before Izuku went to crash for the night as well.
The last few days before the start of school were filled with trying to get as much time for fun as possible. He had to meet with Mona about new jackets and toys for the new Ranger suits. She had requested the girls Morph for reference photos with a hope to have them out within a few weeks and she was already getting flooded with requests for the female Rangers apparel. She was even requesting Miruko and Ryukyu to come for pictures as well.
He had allowed Momo to have access to the main computer archives of Power Ranger history records so she can read to her heart's content on a plethora of things. Momo was practically drooling at the chance to learn about new and incredible things in the archives. She had hugged Izuku tightly with joy until she realized what she had done and became a bit flustered at her actions.
Izuku had shown Kyoka the history of the Yellow Dino Ranger who was not only a Power Ranger but when on to become a famous singer and with dozens of records. Izuku even downloaded her songs onto a hard drive for her to sift through later. He told her that she was an amazing singer and someday would be just as famous as her predecessor. Kyoka got a bit flustered at this as she knew he was being completely honest with her and meant every word.
Setsuna had spent the time exploring the variety of Dino Zords enjoyed every minute of it as they were a dream come true. She even practiced with her Ranger ability to make Raptors and practiced on how to be more effective with them. She had gotten close to Raphtalia since their bonding moment. She went for a ride with Setsuna in her Raptor Zord and the two became thick as thieves.
Ochako had taken the time and named the Megaship the Uravity after her possible hero name when it was in ship mode. She had even gotten DECA to help her stencil the name on near the bay door. She had also gotten to test fly the other Space Ranger Megazords much to her delight. She even when flying with Izuku on a Galaxy Glider when he changed into a Black Space Ranger to go have fun.
Mei had spent her time with DECA working on getting the teleporter improvements up and running with a few bugs here and there. She had also gotten something she called the Forge up and running. It allowed for them to add or create weapons to their arsenal and store them in their Morphers. She had the most fun when she was building. And she even got Izuku to test a few weapons for her and they didn't blow up!
Also while at the Command Center they trained with their Zords and to let them have some fun with the vehicles on the test track. Izuku made sure that they all had access to all the training programs and that they knew how to use the systems at the command console. They also made time to just relax and have some fun like a movie or game night.
The girls had made plans for a girl’s night at Momo place to have some girl talk. Izuku understood and spent the evening teaching Raphtalia how to play Mario Kart. Unbeknown to him there was a serious discussion about him.
Before they knew it the semester was set to start.
Izuku finished getting his bag together for his first day of school. He was nervous about attending since he didn't know which class he was in or how his classmates would react to him being quirkless. He put on his uniform jacket and had attempted to get his tie knotted correctly, but it was a mess. He walked out into the kitchen where Raphtalia had finished her breakfast and was coloring with crayons. She was dressed and her bag was ready to go. His mother was already dressed for work reading the news and drinking her coffee.
“Morning Mom. Morning Raphtalia.” Izuku said placing his backpack on the table before fiddling with his tie some more.
"Morning Dear," Inko said finishing up her coffee and placing the cup in the sink with the rest of the morning dishes
Morning Papa!" Raphtalia said jumping out of her chair to hug him. Izuku scooped her up and kissed her on the head. She squealed with delight at this.
Izuku put her back on the ground and attempted to make his tie look proper. His mother took on pity on him and helped him tie it properly and took a step back and smiled brightly at her son. “You look really cool Izuku.”
Izuku returned her smile before pulling her into a big hug. "Thank you, Mom. For everything you have done for me." Izuku meant every word. She had been his rock for so long on his journey and now he was about to take his next step. "I love you."
Inko wrapped her arms around her son and kissed the top of his head "I love you too Izuku. Now and Forever." She held her son for a little while until she felt Raphtalia join in on the hug. Inko smiled and rustled the young girl's hair. At that moment everything was right with the world. "Ok, we need to get going if we are going to get to UA on time." Inko used her quirk to have her keys come to her hand. They all grabbed their bags and went down to the car. They piled into the car and headed out to UA.
As they arrived at the UA parking area Izuku needed to head for the main entrance as Inko and Raphtalia were heading to the Nurses Office. Izuku gave them both another hug and kiss before running off to Nezu's Office.
Izuku made it to his office early to find out his class placement so he could get to class on time. He knocked on the door and waited. The door swung open to see Nezu behind his desk with someone in his office. “Morning Sir. I was told to report to you for my class placement.” Izuku wanted to make sure he was showing Nezu his proper respect in front so someone he didn’t know.
"Ah yes, Mr. Midoriya. Please come have a seat I am just finishing up a meeting and will be right with you." Nezu gestured to another chair in the room. Izuku nodded and took the chair to wait. Nezu had put on his professional face
"Actually I wanted to speak with Mr. Midoriya anyway." The man sitting in the opposite chair. "My name is Nero Monoma and I am with HPSC." The man now identified as Nero extended a hand towards Izuku with a smirk on his face. Something did not sit right with Izuku.
Izuku stared at the man's hand. "If I had to guess your quirk is based on touch to activate." Izuku watched as the smirk on Nero's face fall and caught a glimpse of the smirk on Nezu's face. Izuku crossed his arms. "Now what can I do for you Mr. Monama?" Izuku watched the man lose the mask he was wearing almost immediately.
"Fine. I am here as a representative from the HPSC with a request that you and your friends are to hand over your Morphers I believe you call them and all of the other technology in your possession to our custody." Nero made his request with his smirk returning. "I came here to talk with your Principal about giving you our request, but since you are here I will be taking yours now." The man extended his hand again.
Izuku looked at the guy like he was insane. "No." He watched the man's face look completely shocked. "I know the rules of UA and the HPSC. I know that what I have and allow my friends access to does not violate either set of rules. I am not required to hand anything over to you or the HPSC." Izuku watched the man clench his fist and his face showed an angry scowl. Izuku leaned back to get comfortable in his chair.
"Listen here, boy. You will hand it over now or I will have you arrested for refusing the request of an HSPC official!" Nero stood up and jabbed a finger in Izuku's direction. "You're not even a hero student! Know you, place boy!"
“That is where you are very wrong Mr. Monoma and IF you do not stop trying to threaten my student I will see that you are escorted out of my office." Nezu's voice was calm, but his tone said everything else. "My Midoriya is correct that he has broken no rules for UA or HSPC. You have no authority over his possessions or anything on his person." Nezu leaned forward on his desk. "Now your business is now concluded. I will ask you to leave or I will have security escort you out. I do not care who your brother is." Nezu hit the button on his door and pointed to the exit. "Oh and tell your brother that I will be waiting for his call."
Nero turned and walked to the door. “This isn’t over Nezu. This will be the final nail in your coffin and I will be back to take everything from him.” After he had cleared the door it shut behind him.
Nezu let out a tired sigh. “I am sorry Izuku I wasn’t expecting them to react this so soon.” Nezu leaned back into his chair and massaged his head. “Dealing with that man has given me a migraine.”
Izuku nodded his head. "We expected this after my rescue, but we didn't take into consideration the battle with Hulking would move up our timetables." Izuku leaned his head back. "I am sure that they will try to pass some change to rules to come after me, but we would be grandfathered into the old rules." Nezu nodded along with him. "I am sure the reason I am meeting with you for a class placement is why he said I wasn't a hero student?"
Nezu smiled proudly. "That is correct. His brother is Chairman Neigo Monoma of the Board for UA." Nezu walked Izuku through the entire story of how Bakugo, Minoru, and Nero's Son Nieto were placed in the Hero Course and Izuku was bumped out. Nezu's solution as his personal student he would attend both classes. His purpose was to help analyze both classes and help them improve their abilities.
"Well, that sounds up my alley." Izuku smiled at his mentor's genius. "Thank you for letting by your student sir." Izuku bowed his head in respect. "I won't let you down sir.
"I know Izuku," Nezu replied with a smile. "I know." Nezu reached into his drawer and pulled out several files. "This is from the money you gave me after selling most of your All Might collection. Mona and I made several profitable investments on your behalf." He slid the folder in front of Izuku.
Izuku opened the folder to look it over and nearly had a heart attack at the numbers he was seeing. "A-Are these real numbers?" Izuku had never seen so much money before in his life. His Mom had to work really hard to take care of them. This much money would take care of all of them for the rest of their lives several times over.
"They are real and still making more money as we speak," Nezu said gesturing for the next file on the stack. Now let's get down to business for our next step. Shouta wants you down at the field shortly for his assessment." Nezu slid the next file in front of him. In big bold letters was PROJECT SPD.
“Yes sir.” Izuku smiled at the file. He flipped open the file and they both went to work.
Near Classroom 1-A
Kyoka let out a sigh as she neared the 1-A classroom. She could hear two people shouting and could tell they would give her a headache. She had met up with the others at the front gate before heading inside. Mei was the first to head off to her support classroom departing with a wave to all of them. They walked until Setsuna saw her room and hugged them all before heading off to her class with a sad face.
Momo, Ochako, and Kyoko entered the room to see the blue hair boy from the exams shouting at another person from their exams a blonde boy. The found out their names were Tenya Ida and Katsuki Bakugo. They were not impressed with either boy as Bakugo was crass and loud and Ida was too rigid and almost robotic. The three of them took a few desks in the back of the classroom and waited. As it got close to the start of class more people entered the room. With each person that came in, their spirits fell as Izuku still wasn't in the class. With 10 minutes before class started the feeling solidified as the last desk was filled with a blonde American girl.
Kyoka took out her phone and messaged in their girl chat.

Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Uploaded Screenshot.jpeg
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Says he will see soon?
Kyoka looked at the time and put her phone away. She shared a confused look from her friends at the cryptic message from their green friend. She gave them a shrug as they sat back in their seats. As the bell rang a large yellow-looking caterpillar crawled into the room. The bag opened and a scraggy-looking man got out and turned to the class.
"You are all too loud and took too long to settle down it's irrational. My name is Shouta Aizawa and I will be your Homeroom Teacher." He gave them all a stern look before placing two boxes on top of his desk one labeled Boys and the other Girls. "Come grab your gym uniform package with your name on it and head to the locker rooms to change and get to the Training field 3 in 10 minutes or else." Everyone scrambled and dashed for the locker room.
Kyoka led her two friends to the field and was surprised to see they were the first to arrive to meet their teacher. They still had several minutes until the deadline. They watched as the other students were not far behind them as they were scrambling to get there. When everyone had arrived at the field Aizawa spoke to the class. "Now let's get going before we waste any more time. You will all be going through a Quirk Apprehension Test so that I may gauge your current skill levels."
“What about our Orientation?” Ochako asked confused as she remembered that it was on their list of activities for their first day until they received their official class schedule.
"My class. My Rules." Aizawa replied to her as they gestured for them to line up. He grabbed a ball and held it in his hand. "Bakugo you ranked second in the Entrance Exams. What was your longest throw in middle school?"
Bakugo gave him a bored look. “67 Meters.”
Aizawa nodded his head. “Now do it with your quirk.” He tossed Bakugo the ball and stepped back. Bakugo headed for the circle.
Kyoka tapped Momo on the shoulder. "Hey, I think that is the guy Izuku warned us about. Can you make me some hearing protection?"
“Sure.” Momo makes some special hearing protection for Kyoka before making a pair for Ochako and herself. The other girls saw this and asked for the same. Momo obliged and made sure they were wearing them correctly.
“DIE!” Bakugo screamed as a massive explosion went off. Sending the ball flying into the air.
‘DIE?’ most of them thought at the same time.
Aizawa showed them the screen with the distance. 705.2m "This is the most rational way of teaching the foundations of being a hero." He told the class in his tired tone. "You all have just 3 years to become heroes." He looked at each of the students. "Do you have what it takes to make it all that time?"
All Might had been looking over the teaching roster to see who Melissa was had for her homeroom teacher. It wasn’t hard to find and when he saw the name he swore and headed for the roof.
“But that is not fair! It’s the first day of school and we have to do an assessment test?” Mineta complained to the instructor.
"Life is unfair. Natural Disasters, Villain attacks, being outnumbered and outgunned. Your job as a hero is to overcome any obstacle. Do you all have what it takes? Aizawa replied to the Mineta who cowered under that man’s stern gaze. “Give it everything you got or go home. Those are your choices.” He gestured to the next area. “Now the demonstration is over. Time is wasting.”
With that, they dove into the tests. As they were going through the first few sets on pairs for the 50m dash a pink hair girl commented that this was going to be fun. Kyoka could tell that was the wrong thing to say to this teacher. "Fun you say, huh? He gave the class a grin. "How about this the person that comes in last place will be expelled from the class." The class when silent with fear. "Now let's get back to work."
Kyoka was waiting for her tune when she hear a familiar voice humming a tune from behind her. She turned to see Izuku carrying a clipboard and was dressing in his gym uniform as well. "Hey, it's Izuku." She said getting her friend's attention.
Izuku got closer and saw that his friends were looking in his direction. "I'll fill you guys in later," he said softly. He watched Kyoka give him a nod and repeat to Ochako and Momo. He walked over and gave Shouta a bow. 'Sorry, Mr. Aizawa. The Principal kept me longer than planned. I hope I am not too late to help."
Shouta quirked an eyebrow at him. "Midoriya glad you could join us. I wrote down the first few people that have gone. Please keep track of them until we are done. Then I will introduce you to the class." They had been having a silent conversation using Shouta's personal hand signs. They decided to play it off as if they didn't know each other until later.
"Yes Sir." Izuku filled out what had already been done stood by the finish line. He glanced over to see Bakugo glaring in his direction. He ignored him and focused on the other students making notes on the side for him to analyze later.
They continued each event documenting the results until they reached the last event the Ball Throw. Bakugo had been except since his earlier throw. Kyoka had done ok, but her quirk was not very helpful with this.
Momo made a cannon and launched it pretty far. Ochako got an infinity, but her quirk gave her a big edge.
The last person to go was Melissa Shield. Izuku recognized her from a few press conferences her father had done years ago. She was almost as tall as Momo and had a similar body type. She was a bit more muscular and her hair had been cut to shoulder length. Izuku watched her push her sleeves back revealing a pair of bracelets that unfolded and wrapped around her wrist covering her hands and forearms. She then took a piece of paper out of her pocket and hand it to Aizawa.
Aizawa read over it and let out an annoyed sigh. “Since Nezu approved it I will allow it.” He gestured for her to make her toss.
She took a throwing stance and her hands sparked white lighting around her arm that ran up her arm. “SMASH!" she cried as throwing the ball. She shook her hand with a painful grimace on her face.
"801.9m," Shouta called out. "I was expecting better, but since it's the first day I will let it slide." Shouta pointed at her hand. "Do you need to see the nurse?"
"No Sir. Just sore." Melissa replied walking back into line still stretching out her hand. She tapped the gauntlets and they transformed back down to bracelets. The class looked at her in pure awe of beating Bakugo toss showing her strength. She was grateful for her prototype gauntlets had worked, but needed to be tweaked to prevent any more pain.
Aizawa looked at the class. “Good now that the class is done I will have Izuku tally the scores and I will announce them to see who is leaving the class." He looked past to see Vlad coming towards the field with class 1-B. "Hey, Vlad all done with your orientation?" He gave his fellow teacher a smirk.
"Yeah. Yeah. Since you decided to get their assessment done today. I decided that we should do the same." He gestured to his class looking ready to go. "Also I figured it would be easier to announce Izuku together," Aizawa nodded and Vlad turned so both classes could see him. "Now there will be a personal student of Principal Nezu that will be attending both Class 1-A and 1-B for Heroics." Vlad pointed to Izuku who had just handed Aizawa the scores for the Assessment. "Izuku Midoriya will be acting as my assistant for 1-B's assessment. So everyone please get ready to show me what you can do."
“Why is HE getting special treatment? Shouldn’t HE have to do an assessment as well?" Monoma asked as much condescension in his tone as possible. "There should be no special treatment for the Principal personal pet.” He spat the last word out with as much venom as possible.
This caused both classes to glare at the pompous boy in various looks of disgust and anger. Setsuna was about to slug him when a fellow classmate Ibara stopped her. Momo and Kyoka had to stop Ochako from sending the jerk to the moon. Aizawa shot his fellow teacher a look of disapproval of the boy's words. Vlad let out a tired sigh.
"I'll just show you," Izuku said moving towards the circle. "You guys might want to take a few steps back," Izuku said reaching into his pocket and changing his Morpher to the Mystic Morpher. “It’s Morphing Time! Magical Source! Mystic Force!”
1-2-3 Galwit-Mysto-Ranger!
“Green Mystic Ranger!” Izuku called out. He gestured for his mentor to hand him a ball to toss. After catching the ball he handed his clipboard over to him and quickly went over the results.
While Izuku was getting set up the rest of the classes were going nuts as they recognized him from the news recently. Several are discussing the different color of his current suit. Others were overjoyed that they were in class together with the hero from the news. Kyoka put her hearing protection back on knowing he was going to do something big. Setsuna watched with a grin knowing that they were about to see something wicked. Momo and Ochako were relieved to see their friends and prepared to cover their ears.
“It’s Him Toru!” Mina whispered loudly.
“I Know Mina!” Toru whispered back just as loud.
Off to the side, Mina and Toru recognized him as the guy that saved the both of them during the exams and went to battle the Zero Pointers with giant robots. They had also seen him on the news with the tower rescue o0f the people trapped and the little girl and the battle with the villain. They recognized 3 of their classmates and other heroes from the fight against that wanted villain. They wanted to find some time to thank the boy and maybe get to talk to him and his friends a bit.
Bakugo was seething with rage as he watched that Deku walk around like he owned the place. He hadn't seen the freak since the Entrance Exams. He was furious that he was beaten out for 1st place! He was sure that he chickened out or had been in the other class. Now he was the special student to the Principal! How someone like Deku could be picked over him! He was stronger faster and to top it off he had a powerful quirk. When this was over he was going to get his answers and put him back in his place under his foot!
Izuku rolled his shoulder before he thought he had built up enough tension to have a little fun. He opened up his Mystic Morpher and typed in a spell code 1-0 ENTER. “Mystic Muscles!" His torso started to swell up with a ridiculous amount of muscles. When all was said and done he upper body looked like a professional weight lighter with muscle upon muscle. "I hope I don't overdo it." He purposely flexed a few times over dramatically.
Everyone looked at him with looks of complete shock at his 'power up' they all blinked and a few even rubbed their eyes to make sure they were not seeing things.
‘Holy mother of god.’ Momo, Setsuna, Kyoka, and Ochako thought simultaneously.
Izuku drew his arm back with the ball in hand. He threw it with practiced precision. It caused a loud boom as it left his hand and went sailing through the air.
A few students were almost blown off their feet and had to scramble to stay standing up. Kyoka was grateful for the hearing protection after seeing how hard his throw was. They waited for a few minutes until Aizawa showed them the screen.
4009.5m
"Huh I was sure it was going to go further, but I only gave it a semi-serious throw." Izuku shrugged with his massive shoulders. He let his muscles fade and then powered down and turned to see his classmates. They just looked at him with stunned expressions on their faces. "Uh, I think I broke the class, Mr. Aizawa."
Aizawa let out a small sigh at his student antics suppressing every instinct to smile. He watched as Vlad was laughing loudly at what just happened.
“Alright enough gawking. It is time for your scores.” Aizawa said before showing them the screen with their results.
Momo Yaoyorozu-1st
Shoto Todoroki-2nd
Katsuki Bakugo-3rd
Tenya Ida-4th

Hanta Sero-15th
Denki Kaminari-16th
Kyoka Jiro-17th
Toru Hagakure-18th
Hitoshi Shinso-19th
Mineta Minoru-20th
Mineta began to cry as he was the one in last place and was complaining about how it wasn't fair he hadn't even got to see the female student s costumes. The girls from both classes were glaring hard at the now know pervert. He was begging any of the gods that would hear him to let him stay.
"Oh by the way it was a logistical ruse to make you all perform better. No one is being expelled today." Aizawa's tone was flat and bored. He wanted to kick the little grape out, but he needed a good reason. He was sure the grape would slip up and he would be out the door. "Now everyone from 1-A please clear off the field for 1-B to do their assessment."
Aizawa was about to say something else when he saw Bakugo rushing towards Izuku with rage in his eyes screaming “DEKU YOU BASTARD!” Bakugo clenched his fist as he got close. Aizawa let out a sigh and used his capture scarf to grab Bakugo and pull him closer to Aizawa to cancel out his quirk "I saw that Bakugo. I will give you your only warning you try to harm another student like that again and I will guarantee your expulsion. Understood?"
Bakugo struggled for a bit before relenting and nodding his head yes. He was released and stormed off towards the locker room. Sending hateful glares toward Izuku before ignoring him completely. Small explosions were popping in his hands.
Kyoka got free and rushed to Izuku's side who looked ok, but a little shaken. "Hey, you ok? She asked making sure he saw her movements before touching his shoulder. He let out a sigh before looking at Kyoka. "Hey, I am here Green Bean. Are you ok?"
Izuku nodded "Yeah, just caught me off guard with his aggression." His voice was a little shaky. He hadn't had a PTSD episode like that in while. He regretted letting his old bully have any space in his head, but for the moment he was back to being on the ground surrounded by explosions. When he finally cleared his head he looked up to see Momo, Ochako, and Setsuna come over to check on him as well. "After today is over can you guys want to meet at the Command Center so I can fill you guys in on what just happened?"
"Sure Izuku that sounds fine with me," Momo said with a gentle smile. She wanted to pull him into a hug but resisted doing so in front of so many people.
Sure. I’ll be there.” Ochako said glaring in the direction of Bakugo. She was plotting on if anyone would notice her throw that jerk into the sun.
“Yeah sounds cool. I’ll message Mei to join us.” Kyoka replies gently rubbing his shoulder. “We got to go, but we’ll wait for you at the gate ok?”
I am good with that too Izu.” Setsuna said worried about his shaken appearance.
"Ok, thanks I really mean it." He gave them a real smile and headed off to assist Vlad with his classes assessment test. He focused on their quirks and times for each event making sure to pay close attention to everyone evenly.
The rest of 1-B's assessment went rather calm compared to how 1-A's assessment had ended. The scores were tallied up and Setsuna was able to place herself at 1st place, but a slim margin. He went back to Nezu and worked on a few projects together and before he knew it was the end of the day. He messaged his mom about talking to his friends after school and promised he would be home before dark.
After school was over they went to a nearby alley and teleport to the Command Center. They were unsurprised to see Mei waiting for nearby tinkering with some new gadget. He directed all of them to the kitchen area and told them to sit down.
"I wanted to tell you guys all at once since with having a class with Bakugo somethings are going to come out and I want you guys to let me get through this before I lose me courage with this." I watched as they all got looks of concern and worry on all five of their faces. "It all started when I was 4 years old and I had just received my Diagnosis as Quirikless," Izuku told them everything from age 4 up to everything that happened today at UA.
Nezu logged out of his work computer for the day. The first day of class went well despite a few setbacks in his plans. He entered the small secret room he had finished recently. He stepped inside looked small with one of DECA's cameras next to it. "What did the analysis on the vial Hulking used?" Nezu asked his hand behind his back as he walked back and forth.
“It was made by a known Trigger ring that was recently taken down by Endeavor and his agency. Some of the shipment was already gone before the takedown. It also contained a variety of enhancers and genetic material from 8 different people not in any database.”
Nezu let out a tired sigh. “Someone is trying to play god and using unknown people to test them on.” Nezu hated people like that and they had no clues work with was getting on his nerves.
"I did get a match from one sample in my Ranger database," DECA stated. "There are a few others I am still trying to identify.
Nezu's head snapped up. "What was the match to?" Nezu didn't like that there was a match to a system that was not of their dimension.
"The match is for an evil entity known as Dark Spectre." DECA's voice filled in the now silent room.
"Oh, Dear." Was Nezu could think to say before leaning back into his chair letting out a very tired sigh before picking up a file on his desk. "I need to work quickly then."

Chapter Text
The Command Center was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. Izuku had finished telling them about his past with Bakugo including what had happened to lead him to get his Morpher to meeting all of them. It was easier after having talked with Nemuri about it recently, but it was still a bit emotional for him to relive it so soon. He watched the variety of emotions on their faces as he told his story. Horror at how he was treated most of his life by his former classmates, teachers, and people in general. Anger at Bakugo for being Izuku's primary abuser, who was now their classmate, and him telling to take a swan dive. Sadness at him going through this alone with no friends for so many years. He had to talk them all down about retaliating against Bakugo saying it wasn't worth it for them to get in trouble or expelled over.
Izuku watched as they all jumped up and pulled him into a group hug nearly taking him to the ground. Izuku wasn’t sure what to do with them crying. He barely understood women on a good day and now he had 5 crying women in his arms. He tried to reassure them, but they held onto him that much tighter with his attempts. He waited for them to settle down before trying to talk anymore.
Momo had composed herself first before asking "How are you this kind to everyone if you were treated so poorly?" She was angry at herself for not seeing the signs that her friends had been mistreated by people so terribly for over a decade! She wanted to get her mother to eviscerate that school and those so-called teachers.
Izuku shrugged the best he could. "I wanted to be a hero and I knew that if I gave up or gave in to what they said about me then I would have quit a long time ago." Izuku watched as they all looked up at him. "There is a quote from a pre-quirk movie Balboa that always stuck with me whenever I was on the edge of giving up. ‘It’s not about how hard you hit; it’s about how you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward.’ I just keep moving forward I suppose.” Izuku blushed at letting his nerdy side out like that.
They all gave him a small smile at this adorable dork that quoted a move from so long ago that keep him going. They started to giggle a little as they started to feel better.
Izuku smiled "There, it is much better to see all your pretty smiles than to have to have such sad looks on your faces." Izuku realized what he just said and blushed as he tried to speak but just stuttered incoherently.
The girls all blinked a moment at his words and lightly blushed before looking at each other. They broke the hug and started to play rock-paper-scissors. Setsuna and Ochako won the first round and went into a second for Setsuna was the winner. Ochako pouted as Setsuna grinned and moved towards Izuku. “This is for being such an amazing guy.” Setsuna gently grabbed the sides of his face and pulled him into a kiss. Izuku saw fireworks as their lips touched. He froze at the action not sure what to do with his hands.
When the kiss ended Izuku struggled to understand. “Why?” That was all he could get out as he was trying to process her kiss.
"I like you Izu and I wanted to show you how much you mean to me to share your past." Setsuna reddened slightly. "You treat me like I am a person and not my last name. People are always trying to date me for my family prestige, but you treat me like I am special for just being me and not as an object you want to obtain.” She smiled at him “You are not alone remember that.” She stepped back and gestured for Ochako to come forwards.
Ochako came forward her face red with a blush. She stepped close and gently placed his hands on her hips and put her arms around his neck and pulled him into a gentle kiss. Izuku was still a bit stiff at first but relaxed slightly to her kiss. When she pulled back she looked him in the eyes. "I like you too Izuku. I felt something when you saved me at the exams. I watched how you are always so kind and say the sweetest things to make a girl feel special." Ochako moved a hand to gently cup his face. "Each time I was around you I saw you treated me like a queen and you encouraged my love for space and you gave me a spaceship!" She smiled shyly. "Setsuna is right you are not alone anymore." Ochako stepped back and gestured for the next one.
Mei had smug look she walked over and pulled Izuku in a short intense kiss. “I have been wanting to do that again since our first one. Mei pulled back fidgeting with her hands. “You have been so patient with me since the first day we met and you are always looking out for me. I wasn’t sure what I was feeling, but when I kissed you that first time it was magical and I knew that I like you.” Mei hugged him tightly. “I will always be someone you can count on for you Zuzu.” She moved away as Momo stepped forward.
"I felt similar to Setsuna. I was treated like a trophy that rich heirs wanted to place on their mantle for bragging rights. You talked with me about quirks, history, and even literature and you always seemed interested in what I had to say." Momo placed his hand on her hips and gently wrapped her arms around his neck. "You saw me as Momo and treated me like I was valued for my mind and personality rather than my looks or money. Thank you Izuku." She kissed him and pulled him close to deepen it. When she pulled back she gave him a wink "I like you Izuku. I am just a call away if you ever need me." She added an extra sway in her hips as she walked away. Izuku couldn't help but watch her walk away.
Momo moved to join the other girls and Kyoka walked forward she was doing her nervous tick of tapping her ear jacks together and stopped in front of him. She took a deep breath before speaking. "I thought you were cute when I first met you and when you call me Queen of Rock made me feel special." Kyoka seemed to be losing confidence as she took another steady breath. "I know I don't much to offer you in the way physical beauty as the other girls-." She was cut off when Izuku kissed her and gently pulled her close. She was startled at first but quickly melted into his kiss and warm embrace.
Izuku broke the kiss and looked her in the eyes. "Kyoka you are beautiful in your own way. You have amazing legs and you are beautiful to me." Izuku's face was a bright red. "Each of you girls has their own ways they are beautiful and your voice is beyond beautiful. Your passion for music is what makes you special."
"Green Bean," Kyoka said softly as she hugged him tightly. For years she had always been overlooked for her body looked to others. His words made her feel special. "This is why I like you so much." She hung on to him for a few minutes until she calmed down. She left their embrace and rejoined the other girls.
Izuku took a moment to collect himself. "I can't tell you how much you mean to me. I want to accept all your feeling, but I don't want to hurt any of you if I have to choose one of you. You are all unique and beautiful in your own ways." Izuku was torn about possibly hurting his friends by choosing one over another.
"Then don't choose," Setsuna said making him look up in surprise.
"We discussed it at length during our Girls Night and we decided that we all care for you," Ochako said tapping her index fingers together.
“We decided that we could all share you!” Mei said excitedly.
"We decided that we wanted to stand by you through everything that comes our way," Momo stated holding out a hand towards him.
"I-If you are willing to accept us," Kyoka said still fluster enough her jacks were moving somewhat erratically.
Izuku looked at each one of them and was trying to process that they want to be with him. He wasn't sure what to do. He remembered what Nemuri had told him about taking it slow and seeing where it goes. He was scared to open his heart again to have it be broken again. He wasn't sure what to do when he felt a hand touch his shoulder. He focused back on the girls in front of him. He saw that Setsuna had detached her hand to get his attention.
"Hey, we plan to take this slow with dates and let everything take its course. Ok?" She reattached her hand and they all moved forward to Izuku. They all nodded at this waited for him to respond.
"I agree," Izuku said in a soft tone. "If we are going to do this we need to make communication important and to make sure no one feels left out or hurt one of you." Izuku took a deep breath and took a leap of faith in them. "I am not sure how to date anyone. No one has ever wanted me before."
"Well learn together Izuku," Ochako said pulling him towards them. He felt them all hug him as a group.
'This feels pretty nice.' Izuku thought to himself as they stay together like that for a bit. He felt at peace for the first time in a long time.
The impromptu confession and hug session came to an end as it was getting late and the need to get home. Each of them kissed him and said they would see him tomorrow. Izuku felt lighter as he walked home after telling them about his past and that he now had girlfriends. He was unsure how his mother was going to react to it. He hoped he would put off that conversation for a few days.
He reached the apartment and walked in and when he took off his shoes he noticed his sister’s shoes were by the door. He immediately had a bad feeling starting to form in his stomach. He kicked off his shoes to see them sitting with his Mom at the kitchen table with a laptop in front of them and Raphtalia bouncing with excitement beside her. He was curious as to what they were watching when he heard the audio coming from it.
“Well learn together Izuku.”
He froze as he recognized Ochako's voice and those exact words. He watched as his mother looked up to see him standing there. "Well Izuku I see you have something you want to tell us?" she gestured to the computer in front of her. His sisters were all sporting predatory grins at his girlfriend's confessions.
Before he could say anything Raphtalia spoke first. "YEAH I got 5 mamas!" she started dancing with joy. Around the table before rushing to hug him. "Thank you, Papa!"
It was going to be a long night. Izuku facepalmed. Betrayed by his computer assistant.
It turns out his mother was concerned about what he was going to tell his friends and asked DECA to send her a video stream of what they talked about. She had called his sisters to watch to make sure they could get there if he got uncomfortable. So they watched as the girls reacted to his past. Watched them comfort him and then watched in stunned silence as they each confessed and kissed him. Raphtalia had come into the room during the kissing and was ecstatic about getting a Mama or in her case 5.
Inko held out her hand as her daughters handed her money as she had won the bet on who her son would end up with. She was happy for her son taking the brave step and was ready to give him a gentle lecture on how they were to be treated as queens and that he had to bring them over soon for a family dinner. Izuku was a little surprised they were betting on his love life or that they were betting against their mother. She usually won.
His sisters were happy for him, but they now had something new to tease him about and they were not afraid to embarrass him about it either. Yu gave him dating advice on certain restaurants that would be good for each of the girls. Ryukyu suggested some changes to his clothing when hanging around them. Rumi teased him about being a Casanova and wondered when the first wedding was. Nemuri went on about youth and passion with their confession and hugged him close telling him she was proud of him. They commented on showing them his baby pictures when they came over. Izuku bowed his head knowing that there was nothing he could do to prevent it. He was sure if they tried to stop them then Nemuri would show them to her art class as a 'lesson'.
Izuku thanked his lucky stars he didn’t have to get the talk for the 3rd time. He was not sure if he could have survived it right now. Especially since he was sure Nemuri would be going into greater detail now that he was no longer single.
Since Raphtalia was already wound up with getting new 'Mama's' He decided it was a good time to show her the file Nezu had given to his mother. "Hey, Raphtalia come here for a minute please?" Izuku asked as he grabbed the file off the counter.
The young girl rushed over as he held the file out for her to see. "Grandma Inko got this today." Izuku ruffled her hair a bit as she leaned into his hand slightly. "This makes it official that as of today you are Raphtalia Midoriya." Izuku smiled brightly as he watched her eyes sparkling with joy and rushed forward to hug him with everything she had. "Welcome to the family." Izuku looked up to see the rest of his family was getting teary-eyed at the scene in front of them. This reignited a debate on who was going to be the cool Aunt between his sisters.
"Thank you, Papa," Raphtalia said as she held him tight. "I don't have any gifts for you to say thank you."
Izuku held her tighter "The greatest gift in this entire world is having you for a daughter." Izuku kissed the top of her head as she cried tears of joy at his words. Inko took many pictures of them and made sure to send him a few copies.
The rest of the evening was an impromptu party. Raphtalia was so happy it took her quite a while to get her settled down and into her bed. Officially His mother was listed as her guardian, but she called Izuku her Papa. No one wanted to correct her or tell her anything different. This had been the cherry on top for the young girl as she was now Raphtalia Midoriya. It was one of the best days of both of their lives.
He ran through a shower and laid down on his bed before sending them messages.

Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Just pray for me. I think I can- No No NO!
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): My My I wondered what got her on edge before I could ambush her. She will be free to talk in the morning. Bye Izuku. (Mom)
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): has gone Offline.
Izuku laid his phone down and sighed. Tomorrow was going to be so awkward for all of them. He put his phone on the charger and tried to get some rest. He hoped they would not hate him for this in the morning.
Elsewhere his girlfriends were being given the Talk with a DVD they got with the suggestion from Inko. The girls were red in the face before it even started and begged for mercy when their parents hit the button play. Each one received a bit of additional information specific to them much to their growing horror at this experience for all of them.
The next day Izuku met up with them and begged for their forgiveness of what his mother brought down upon them. They didn't blame him, but they were having a hard time looking him in the eye. They congratulated him on the paperwork going through for Raphtalia to be adopted into the family. Kyoka and Setsuna teased him about being Papa Izuku now. Izuku blushed at this but smiled as he showed them pictures from last night.
Mei gave him a quick kiss and darted off to the Support class carrying DECA fox in her arms. Setsuna did the same before rushing off to 1-B blushing the entire way to the classroom. Izuku walked to class with his other 3 girlfriends towards their class. Before they reached the class they went into an empty classroom and each kissed him before heading to 1-A.
Today Izuku had homeroom with 1-A and would be in 1-B homeroom class tomorrow. This flipped every other day unless there was a special event. The day turned into a normal school day. They had English with Present Mic, Math with Ectoplasm. The class before lunch was Art History with Midnight. Izuku was hoping she would treat him like any other student, but that went out the window the moment he came into the room.
"Izuku! Come hug your big sister!" She then proceeds to hug him to her chest and treat him like a teddy bear. When class started she let him go and sent him to his desk. Izuku was completely embarrassed by her antics. It got worse when she put up a picture of his rescue of Ochako and him carrying her princess style to safety. Izuku flushed a darker red and Ochako started blushing red at this photo. She accidentally activated her quirk and start to float away until Kyoka and Momo helped pull her down to her chair. He was asked by several students if they were related. Izuku attempted to deflect those questions as best as possible, but Midnight just said they were siblings causing him to get funny looks from his male classmates minus Bakugo, Ida, and Todoroki.
Afterward, it was lunchtime and they were all starving. They got an amazing meal from Lunch Rush and Momo had to drag Izuku away before he held up the line to ask questions. They were about to talk about their experience last night with their parents when several more people approached the table with trays in hand. Mina Ashido, Eijiro Kirishima, Fumikage Tokoyami, and Toru Hagakure.
"Hey is it ok if we join you guys?" Mina asked gesturing for the table with her chin. Izuku and the others shared a look before nodding to have them join. After everyone got introduced and started to relax into pleasant conversation.
“So I wanted to thank you for saving me and Toru during the Entrances Exam.” Mina gestured to her invisible friend. “We never got a chance to thank you and then we see that you’re a real Hero on TV twice!” Mina said as she got excited talking about it.
"Yeah that save at the tower with Mt. Lady was beyond manly Mido-Bro." Kirishima grinned flexing his arm to prove his point. "Your quirk is so badass man!" He flashed Izuku a big a toothy grin.
Izuku's face fell slightly. "Well thank you for that both of you, but I don't have a quirk I am quirkless." Izuku watched the surprised look on their faces. "I use a type of support item to help me save people." He pulled the Master Morpher out of his pocket to show them.
"That making it even more impressive then." Fumikage said as he set down his utensils "It seems there is more to you than it seems Midoriya." A shadow-like bird appeared out of his back and nodded in agreement to Fumikage.
"I agree that is amazing and you looked so cool during the exams and the rescue with Mt. Lady!" Toru said as she waved her arm to emphasize her excitement.
Izuku smiled a bit as he felt Momo gently elbow him to get him to cheer up. They went into talking about different hobbies and Izuku went into mumble mode taking out his notebook and asking them about their quirks. Kyoka had to tap him a few times to get him to not spiral too far. He thanked her and apologized to them for his mumbling.
Fumikage and Kirishima both waved it off with a smirk at his antics. Mina and Toru cooed saying he was like an adorable bunny when he got embarrassed. This caused Izuku to flush red and his girlfriends all had an eye twitch at this but agreed he looked like that at times. Halfway through lunch, more people joined the table.
Hitoshi Shinso and Denki Kaminari came over to join the table since it looked like fun. Kirishima joked that they helped balance out the table to make it even. Everyone seemed to be having fun at the table and got to know each other a bit better. Mina got everyone's contact information with a promise to create a chat group for them. When Izuku asked them about their quirks Kaminari told him easy, but Hitoshi hesitated before telling them.
"My quirk is called Brainwashing. If someone answers me then I put them in a kind of trance that let me tell them what to do until I end it or if they are injured canceled out my request." Hitoshi waited for the usual comments about how 'villainous' it was.
"Oh, that is so Cool!" Izuku exclaimed excitedly. "You can help in so many ways from ending Hostage situations to tricking villains to surrender." Izuku spun off into another mutter spree about the versatility of his quirk in various heroic operations that he was stunned for a moment.
“You don’t think it’s villainous?” Hitoshi asked cautiously to Izuku he had only received positive feedback from his girlfriend up until now. This was a new experience for him.
Izuku gave him a really confused look. "Quirks are not Heroic or Villainous. They are just Quirks, abilities people are born with. People who wield them can be Heroes or Villains depending on how they use them." Other people at the table agreed with his statement and also agreed that Hitoshi's quirk did not seem villainous to them.
"Thank you Izuku," Hitoshi replied with a smile before going back to his lunch. He definitely wanted to hang out with him sometime. He thought he should introduce Izuku to his girlfriend with his thoughts on quirks. She could use some new supportive friends.
The table went back into pleasant conversations about what they thought of school so far and what was going to happen in the afternoon class. They just hoped there was no risk of being expelled during their afternoon class. They still did not know who their instructor was.
After their relaxing lunch, it was time for their first Foundational Heroics Studies class. Everyone was wondering what they were going to do and wondering who their instructor was. Izuku hung back with his friends and talked about their different plans for the weekend.
"I AM COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!" ALL Might said as he walked in the door cape flapping in a nonexistent breeze.
"IT'S ALL MIGHT!" Kirishima and Kaminari were both geeking out over having All Might as a teacher.
“Cool Silver Age Costume!” Tsuyu stated.
Melissa let out a tired sigh at his antics. ‘Really? You have to go over the top again?’ she thought to herself. ‘Maybe I need to call Gran to make him stop.’ She watched as her uncle shivered slightly as if he read her thoughts.
Izuku went stiff at seeing All Might. He had not seen the man since that day on the roof and now he was going to see him regularly at UA. He wasn’t sure how to handle this. He was still mentally panicking when he felt someone grasp his hand. He looked to see Momo had subtly grasped his hand in a show of support. Ochako and Kyoka had moved a little closer to help him. He gave them an appreciative smile. They all separated before anyone noticed their actions.
“We will be jumping right into with a trail all heroes must go through in their careers as HEROES!” All Might took out a card a revealed it with the works ‘Battle Training’
Bakugo had a feral grin at this with the excitement of fighting these extras. He flexed his hands and make several small pops in rapid succession. 'Finally, my time to shine.' Bakugo thought to himself. He was not going to get beaten in combat by any of these extras. Especially Deku.
Izuku, Momo, Ochako, and Kyoka blinked in surprise ‘Real Fighting on the first-class?' they had expected a class on the basics, but All Might wanted to jump into it feet first. Melissa sighed at his antics making a note to call Gran to make him stop.
“But one of the keys of being a hero is looking good!” while pointing at a wall. The wall opened to reveal 20 slots holding their costumes. “These were designed based on your Quirk Registration forms and the request you set in before the school started.” All Might explained to the class “Get yourselves suited up and then meet me up at Training Ground Beta.”
Most of the class cheered and rushed to grab their cases. As the group thinned out Ochako noticed that Izuku didn't have a case. "Where is your case Izuku?" Ochako asked hoping it was sitting somewhere else since they didn't have enough slots.
Izuku gave her a sad smile. “Since I am Quirkless I don’t get funding for a suit, but Mei should have it ready for me.” Izuku saw them frown at that “I know it’s not right, but I have one and need to go get it. I will meet you at Training Ground Beta.” They grumbled and grabbed their cases to get changed. Izuku headed off to the support lab for his suit.
All Might watched the boy walk away to get his suit. ‘Sorry kid I wish things were different and your case was here with the rest of the class.’ He thought as he headed to the training ground to wait for the class and maybe get a few minutes to spare on his time limit. He was still trying to find time to apologize to him and he needed to do it soon before Melissa find out he had been putting it off again. He was unsure how to apologize to someone he had shattered his dreams with his thoughtless words.
Izuku knew the way to the support class and texted Mei he was on the way for his suit. He reached the door when it opened with Mei holding his case. “Here you go Zuzu all set and ready to go!” Mei exclaimed as she shut the door behind him and held out his case for inspection. She was beaming with pride at her hard work.
"I must say that Mei put a lot of her best work into your costume and equipment." DECA fox chimed in next to her feet. Mei blushed slightly at her companion's words.
Izuku opened it up and smiled at her hard work. "Mei you are truly a wonderful genius. Thank you for all this hard work you put into it." He took his case and pulled her into a kiss. Mei squeaked in surprise but returned the kiss. She blushed dark red at his bold actions.
“GO before you are late for class.” Mei hurried back into her class slightly flustered with a smile on her face DECA fox right behind her. Izuku chuckled and ran for the locker room to get changed to make sure he would make it to the training ground on time.
The class had arrived at Training Ground Beta all decked out in their costumes. Ochako and Kyoka had minor modifications to their designs before the start of school thanks to the help of Izuku and Nemuri looking over their designs along with Mei to make the improvements.
Ochako helmet visor had been updated with a heads-up display for important information. The rest of her costume remained unchanged. She had been a bit concerned about it being skintight, but when Momo pointed out it may help with her nausea she stopped worrying about it. Kyoka pointed out Izuku might enjoy her skintight suit. That caused her to blush and hoped that he liked it then still looking a bit self-conscious about it.
Kyoka had a slight change to her suit materials giving her a bit more protection to her rocker outfit without changing her style too much. She also had a visor tinted a yellow-gold added to her costume for the same reason as Ochako.
Momo had been the biggest change from her initial design that after one look from Izuku and Nemuri scrapped it and did a complete redesign. She had a red full-body suit that was similar to Nemuri that allowed for her to keep her skin covered and it would 'tear' for when she had to make something, but it was self-repairing and closed said tear back to normal. She also had a computer on her forearm to replace her book in her original design. She also got a red-tinted visor that connected to her computer for when her hands were occupied in the field. She covered herself with a white sleeveless trench coat with pockets on the inside. Her last piece was a black belt with a few support items from Mei.
They were about to start when Izuku walked in Hero Suit. He had his hair in his loose ponytail and his eyes were covered with a pair of sci-fi-looking Visor Sunglasses tinted silver. He wore a modified gray SPD style uniform with green accents and gold trim. Instead of the silver SPD logos, he had the Dragon Power Coin logo on his chest, both shoulders, and back. Around his shoulders was a green capture scarf similar to their homeroom teacher. As his waist was a belt with a few pouches, knife, and Master Morpher resting in the center. Finally, he finished with a pair of black and green steel-toed boots.
His girlfriends came over and gave him a nod of approval. "Remind me to thank Mei when I see her next. She did an amazing job on your hero costume." Momo said looking over his suit. It looked comfortable and didn't impede his movements with his fighting style.
"Izuku smiled "I can do that. I think I may need to cut my hair since it's getting too long." He emphasized his point he flipped his hair hanging out of the hair tie. "Thinking maybe a buzz cut?" he wondered what he would look like with really short hair.
Momo, Kyoka, and Ochako thought for a moment about how he would look, but all stated unanimously. "Nope not allowed." Izuku's shoulders slumped dramatically, but he agreed with them.
"Your costumes are incredibly well made and you guys look amazing in them," Izuku said looking them over as they flushed a little as his praise of them.
His new friends made their way over as Kirishima was about being manly and with his quirk made up for his exposed chest and face. He said the suit was inspired by an old hero Crimson Riot and his own spin on it.
Hitoshi's suit made him do a double-take as he was almost a clone of his mentor. He wore a dark purple almost black long coat and pants. He wore a grey capture scarf around his shoulders as Izuku had done. Fumikage arrived wearing a basic black cloak that covered most of his body. Both had said they based their suits on several underground heroes they had been able to find.
Mina made him flush a little bit as her suit was very bright. She wore custom tan and purple calf-high boots. She wore a skin-tight purple and turquoise bodysuit ending just above her chest. Over this, she wore a cropped, sleeveless, tan-colored waistcoat with white fur along its collar. Around her eyes was a white domino mask that made her black sclera and gold eyes stand out more. He noted that it reflected her personality of being vibrant and colorful.
Izuku looked over at Toru flushing a dark red before taking off his visor and looking up at the sky as if something had just appeared for him to look at. This confused everyone until Momo looked over to see the problem. All 4 of them had visors made by Mei which included a bit of ranger tech that she came across with all of her tinkering with gadgets. It allowed for anyone with one of her visors to see anyone that was invisible. Toru's costume was made up of shoes and gloves.
Izuku had gotten a full view of Toru's unclothed body.
"Hey what's wrong Izuku?" Toru asked oblivious to what was wrong. "You look really embarrassed. It's fine no one can see me so you don't have to look away." She was sure that got him so worked up being such a nice guy that he was. Her lack of modesty at times seems to make people uncomfortable at times.
Mina looked confused until she took the visor from his hand and slid them on and froze. "Uh, Toru." She said gently before taking them off a little flustered herself. "He embarrassed since his visor let him see you completely.” She had said it softly not to alert the purple class pervert.
The other guys in the group looked a bit uncomfortable at this revelation and subtly looked away not to make her uncomfortable at being seen.
Toru had completely frozen where she stood. "H-he saw me…" She couldn't finish that sentence. She had been seen herself since she was 4 years old and her quirk activated turning her invisible. She was sure no one would ever be able to tell her what she looked like. "Izuku can you visor take a picture?"
Izuku felt uncomfortable at this question but answered anyway. "Yes it has that function installed, but I swear as soon as I got a glimpse of you I looked away. I swear!" He added that last part quickly. Mei had added that feature in case he needed to get a picture of a villain fleeing or if he needed to take a picture of something when the area was not safe or at risk of being destroyed.
"Can you show Mina how to do that please?" Toru's tone was almost desperate. "I am not mad since you didn't do it on purpose, but I want to see what I look like please?"
Izuku nodded and showed Mina how to take a picture and then handed her his phone and unlocked it as a message icon arrived. "Click on that icon and you can forward it to any number you type in." He walked her through it making sure that he couldn't see the image. After it was sent He turned the phone to Toru. "Here this is the only copy on my phone. Click the delete button and then you have the only one."
Toru hand tapped the button and handed the phone back to him. "Thank you for being such a gentleman with this whole thing. Please call me Toru." Her hands took a praying pose as she spoke.
"Uh, no problem. You can call me Izuku then." He extend a hand towards her and she took it with both hands. "Promise me after class today you come with me to talk with my friend Mei in the Support course to get you a real costume." He was worried about her getting hurt or sick from the lack of clothing to protect.
“Ok deal Izuku!” she moved to stand behind Mina. Toru was waiting for him to put his visor back on, but when he took it back from Mina, he just put them in his pocket. She smiled knowing that no one could see it. He was being respectful of her and not many guys would have done that.
Before anything more could be said All Might spoke up to get the class attention as he gestured to a small screen on the wall. “Most of the villain fights you see on the news take place outside, However, statistically speaking run-ins with the most dastardly evil-doers take place indoors. Think about it, Backroom deals, Home invasions, Secret underground lairs. Truly intelligent villains stay hidden in the shadows." The screen showed images of actual locations to give them a bit of understanding. “With this training exercise, you’ll be split into teams of good guys and bad guys. And fighting 2 on 2 indoor battles!”
Tsuyu raised her hand to ask, "Isn't this a little advanced for our first class?" Several students nodded their heads along with her question.
All Might smiled big as he replied. “The best training is what you get on the battlefield.” He struck a pose with his fists on his hips. He was then swamped by several students trying to ask him a question at the same time. “EASY NOW I DON’T HAVE SUPER HEARING. And I was not done talking yet!” He pulled a piece of paper from a pouch.
'He has a script?' Izuku looked surprised at the man. Several other students had the same reaction to this. Melissa just facepalmed at his antics having to suppress a sigh.
"The situation is this. The villains have hidden a nuclear missile in their hideout. The heroes must have to foil their plans. The good guys have to catch the evildoers or recover the weapon. Likewise, the bad guys succeed if they protect their payload or capture the heroes." that was shown as an old-school video game. All Might finished talking as they watched the simple animation. He reached down and picked up two boxes “We will draw lots for partners!”
There was some initial grumbling at this until Momo spoke up. “This is accurate in real life there will be times you work with a hero you are unfamiliar with and have to find a way to defeat the villain.” She was sure that was the lesson this lesson was about. At least she hoped anyway.
"Well said Miss Yaoyorozu. I can see why you are a recommended student! This happened more often than you think meeting someone in the field and having to adapt on the spot." All Might gestured for them to come forward. “Now time to draw Lots!”
Yuga Aoyama & Melissa Shield (Team A)
Katsuki Bakugo & Tenya Ida (Team D)
Shoto Todoroki & Mezo Shoji (Team B)
Mashirao Ojiro & Mineta Minoru (Team I)
Fumikage Tokoyami & Tsuyu Asui (Team H)
Eijiro Kirishima & Hanta Sero (Team J)
Denki Kaminari & Kyoka Jiro (Team G)
Momo Yaoyorozu & Ochako Uraraka (Team C)
Toru Hagakure& Mina Ashido (Team E)
Hitoshi Shinso & Koji Koda (Team F)
"Hey, Midoriya doesn't have a partner yet?" Kirishima called out as everyone got with their partners. Everyone looked to see they had an odd number of students.
“Oh right.” He grabbed the box again and asked Izuku to come forward. Izuku drew the sphere with the letter E.
"WOOT, WE GET THE MIDORIYA!" Mina and Toru exclaimed as they cheered as well for their luck of the draw. Izuku moved to join them and sent an apologetic look to his girlfriends. They had a small look of disappointment on their face, but that was just the luck of the draw. He gave them a worried look, but they smiled at him and gestured they were ok.
“Now that is settled it is time to draw for Heroes and Villains!” All Might said he drew two spheres “Team E is the Heroes and Team D is the Villains!”
Izuku and Bakugo looks surprised and looked at each other. Izuku had a look of surprise having mixed emotion of facing his former friend and Bakugo had a feral grin glaring at him and started to growl at Izuku itching to fight.
Ochako, Momo, and Kyoka were are horrified that he had to face his bully in a brawl. They could see that Bakugo looked way too happy to fight against Izuku. They wanted to protest, but All Might stopped them by tapping a wall
"Villains head-on in you have 10 minutes plan and set up your lair. Also, I will be monitoring the fight and if I tell you to stop. You Stop." All Might gave them a serious look. Bakugo and Ida went in towards the building. All Might tapped button on the wall and it opened to a massive theater live room with rows of chairs and a large screen and speakers.
All Might was surprised at the change-up from the old monitor and no chairs. He heard Nezu had recently updated all the rooms within the last few months or so. This was more a theater than an observation room. The chairs were large to accommodate students in their costumes and the screen was large enough for everyone to see easily.
Izuku gave his girls a wave as he followed teammates out to their waiting area for them to start planning. They reached the marked area and he took out a notepad and a pen. “Ok let’s go over everything we know and well make a plan. Sound good to you guys?”
Mina nodded and cracked her knuckles “Sounds like a plan to me. Call me Mina.”
Izuku nodded at her “Ok then call me Izuku.”
Toru moved closer and gestured for the building. “So what is the plan Izuku?”
Izuku looked at the building and thought over all of their quirks. “I think I have a plan.” He gestured for them to move forward. They moved close to listen to his plan and when they heard his plan details they couldn’t help but grin.
Ochako found a seat in-between Momo and Kyoka as the screen turned on and was split screen showing both teams getting ready. She kept wringing her hands as the tension was starting to get to her. She felt Momo and Kyoka grab a hand to help keep calm as well. They were not happy about this match-up. They just hoped it would be a quick win for Izuku. They did not like this feeling. They had faith in him to win, but this uneasy feeling was making them all tense.
Their worrying was interrupted when the door opened and a large group of people walk into the room. Vlad walked in with class 1-B. Setsuna made a straight shot over to them and joined in a free seat next to Momo. The rest of her class found available seats. Behind them was Aizawa, Midnight, and Nezu walking in heading over to All Might.
"Ah All Might I thought that we might join you to watch your first class along with 1-B as a chance for the two classes to learn together," Nezu said gesturing to class 1-B getting seated. I was curious as to how your first class will go."
All Might was a bit surprised to see Nezu here in the class but thought it was just to keep tabs on him as a new teacher. “Sounds like a great idea sir the first match will be starting shortly if you want to find a seat.” He gave them a short description of what their objectives were for this exercise.
Nezu nodded in agreement. "OK, I am just waiting on the last of our guests to arrive." Nezu checked his watch. "They should arrive any minute now."
All Might was curious as to who else was going to arrive when the last group walked in the door. In walked Ryukyu, Miruko, Mt. Lady, a green-haired woman, and a small girl. He was surprised to see 3 Pro heroines not affiliated with the school. His eyes linked the woman with green hair. 'She is gorgeous.’ He thought to himself.
"Ah right on time everyone. The first match is about to begin." Nezu smiled and gestured to some nearby seats for the staff. "Oh, I forgot All Might this is Inko Midoriya one of our nurses here at UA that assists Recovery Girl." He gave the All Might a small grin.
All Might straightened up as he heard her last name. “Midoriya as in-.” He almost flinched at the cold expression she gave him. 'Oh, that is not good.' He had faced villains that were not as scary as her. It made him want to flinch away in fear.
“Izuku Midoriya is my son.” She led the small girl away toward the seating area. The other three that came in with her followed her to sit together. Inko was about to put the small girl beside her when she ran off to sit with Izuku girlfriends.
“Suna!” Raphtalia shouted as she reached her.
Setsuna scooped the girl up to her delight. "Hey kiddo you're being good for Inko today." Setsuna hugged her close causing Raphtalia to giggle with joy.
"Yep! I got all my school work done and got to play a few games with Auntie." Raphtalia said her tail swishing with excitement as she recounted her day to Setsuna.
Setsuna smile "That is great now you get to hang with us while we watch heroes train." She watched Raphtalia's eyes start to sparkle at this and got comfortable on her lap. Setsuna felt someone tap her on the shoulder. She turned her head to see a few of her classmates looking at her funny.
"Uh, Setsuna who is the girl?" Her classmate Itsuka Kendo asked out of curiosity. Several of her classmates seemed to be interested in knowing as well.
Setsuna laughed a bit awkwardly “This is Raphtalia Midoriya and I know her through my friend Izuku.” She was not wanting to oust him as her father figure or that she was dating him just yet. The others were worried about this as well since they were wanting to fly under the radar for a bit longer.
Itsuka nodded at this "Oh! So his little sister came with his mother to watch. That was kind of her." She waved at the young girl. Raphtalia was a little shy but she waved back. Kendo smiled at her and move back a bit to see if she became a little less shy. When it worked she made sure to remember that for the future.
"Hey, I recognize her! She was the little that got saved by the guy in the Red Suit and the giant machines!" Tetsutetsu exclaimed. Class 1-A looked to see that they had their own Kirishima. "It was super manly the way he saved her." He was excited and everyone else seemed to make the connections. Raphtalia huddled close to Setsuna as the noise grew and she shot them a stern look to make them settle down before returning to reassure the girl. Kyoka help as well to calm her down as her jacks were up and ready to strike anyone who tried to do anything more to upset her.
"When he uses a suit he is called a Power Ranger," Kyoka informed her sister class. "Just like us." She gestured to her Dino Morpher on her wrist. Everyone looked at her with awe and made the connection to her and the rest of them right away from the recent news reports.
Before anyone else could ask questions All Might cleared his throat. “Now the match will start in a few minutes. The Objective is for the Hero team to capture the device or the Villains to win or the Villains have to hold them off for 15 Minutes or defeat the Heroes to win. The Villains were given time to set up their base and plant the device anywhere.” All Might gestured to the monitors. Showing the Villain team standing in front of the device as the Hero Team was finishing up a plan session. “Exercise Begin!”
"Wait Izu is facing off against Bakugo?" Setsuna asked looking startled at seeing him on the screen and looked at Inko full of concern. She looked at the other girls who shared her concerns.
Nezu looked at All Might. "How did you do the pairing for today?" He knew this was going to be a bad match-up in more ways than one.
"Like life, it was a random draw. Midoriya was the odd man out and drew for his placement with young Ashido and Young Hagakure." He was confused at the looks of concern on the face of the principal and anger on his fellow teachers and Pro Heroes. “Is something wrong?”
Shouta suppressed a sigh as he looked at All Might. “There is a bad history between Bakugo and Midoriya it was noted in their files not to be allowed on the same team of face off against the other.” Shouta and Midnight made sure that it was well documented placed in both of their files as a precaution to prevent this.
All Might looked a bit nervous. “Oh.” He had not had a chance to read any of the student files since he was so far behind with getting his agency shut down and moved on campus.
Miruko looked angry “OH? Is that all you can say!” She snarled at him. Ryukyu and Mt. Lady had stopped her from getting up from her seat near Inko.
Inko gave him a disapproving look. She felt Midnight pat her hand in support.
Nezu decided to stop this before it escalated any more. “I will allow this to continue for now, but if it comes down to it we will stop the exercise and restart the matches if needed.” Those close to Izuku weren’t happy, but there was at least a plan in place if needed.
"So the Principals pet gets special treatment? Why am I not surprised." Neito complained loudly so everyone could hear. He smirk at his rival class as they glared at him. "This should prove that he does not belong in this school." Many of the other people from 1-B gave him a dirty look at his words. 1-A looked ready to jump him if he kept running his mouth about their classmate. Momo and Kyoka kept a grip on Ochako who was ready to knock him down a peg or three.
"Monoma Shut up," Vlad said shortly to the boy. It was only day two and he was already at his wit's end with dealing with the boy. "Anything more from you like that and you will have another detention."
Neito crossed his arms with a scowl but kept his mouth shut. He was given detention the day before for bad-mouthing Izuku during their assessment. He was going to talk to his Uncle to make sure these people knew their place.
"Looks like they are on the move," Nezu said gesturing for the others to watch the screen. He hit a button and audio filled the room. Nezu and several people noticed that Izuku's Golden Morpher was no longer on his belt.
Izuku and Mina had been making their way up the floors. Knowing Bakugo as well as he did was certain the device was on the 4th floor and he would be heading directly for him shortly. As they rounded a corner on the 2nd floor Izuku heard a detonation and moved to get Mina out of the way as he barely missed getting hit in the face with one of Bakugo bursts. "Just like I predicted. Mina, Toru head on and look for the bomb. I will catch up. He tossed his visor to Mina.
"OK, we're on it Izuku!" She dashed towards the stairwell and away from the fight.
"Well, I have you now Deku!" Bakugo snarled as he was ready to jump him again. "I will squash you like the bug you are your quirkless freak!" He lunged forward drawing back for his opening blow. He was caught off guard when he missed.
Izuku dodge enough for the attack to miss him and grabbed his wrist and flipped him over his shoulder and slammed him to the ground. "Poor predictable Bakugo. You have been using the same move for years with that open right hook. Too bad you never looked at my notes or you would have improved." Izuku released Bakugo's wrist and took off down the hall. He ran into several rooms just too quickly to exit and made a break for the stairs.
Bakugo was raging at being flipped like he was nothing. He got to his feet and ran after him blind to everything else but getting his swift vengeance upon Izuku.
Everyone had watched as Izuku flipped Bakugo and slam him into the floor with awe. He hadn't done anything special besides using his opponent's attack against him. They heard Izuku tell him about his predictability and referenced his notes on him. They watched with confused looks of him running into several rooms before backtracking up the stairs.
“What is he doing? Ochako asked in confusion. They knew him well enough that he was not one to run around randomly like that. She had figured he was up to something.
"Well his flip was well done and it seems like he was up to something," Momo stated as she had reached a similar conclusion. She had made a notepad and pencil and began to take notes on the match
"Yeah, Izuku is away planning something in his big brain." She had watched Raphtalia nod along with her. She hugged the girl tight. She didn't like this feeling of watching him fight Bakugo.
"I know he is good at planning and the way he dodge his attack and countered him perfectly means he is about to do something bigger. Also, he hasn't morphed yet." Kyoko said joining in their assessment. They were all in agreement on how smart Izuku could be.
That is when they saw movement come out of the rooms he had exited it all made sense. “Oh.” Was all Momo, Ochako, Setsuna, and Kyoka could say as they smiled about what was about to go down.
Izuku had reached the hallway as planned and met up with Mina. As soon as he reached her she coated the floor and walls with a special acid as they had planned. "It's done Izuku."
"Good Great job Mina." Izuku tapped his earpiece. "Toru are you in position?" He was listening for Bakugo and was not disappointed when he heard his battle cry or the sound of his explosions telling him that he was on his way. Izuku had calculated his normal distance between blast and duration of flight times so where they placed Mina acid would be where he had to land.
"Yes, I found him doing a monologue and have marked the door as planned." Toru had gone up the back stairwell as they pretended she was with the two of them. She had made it up to the 4th floor with no difficulty. They had not set up any traps which made it easier for her to slip in unnoticed and find the room they were looking for.
"Great Job Toru. We will take care of Bakugo and come up and help you with Ida." He motioned for Mina to follow him to the rear hallway and staged just past the door. They heard a yell as he landed in her acid and heard the sound of him slamming into the wall. She peaked around the corner to see him lying face down in her acid that was super slick, but non-corrosive. They both started to laugh at his misfortune.
Back in the observation room, the other students were not doing much better. They watched him run out of steam before he could avoid the acid and as soon as his foot touched the harmless acid he slipped and hit the wall before falling face down on the floor. They laughed at him like it was comedy gold. Shouta and Midnight had to admit he had planned out this fight better than they had thought, but since Nezu was his mentor they should not have been surprised. It made them a bit nervous about the second coming of Nezu.
Izuku watched as Bakugo was managed to stand up through sheer will and determination. He was radiating pure rage and let off a large explosion blowing the acid away from him. "You are dead Deku. You and that slimy Raccoon eyed-bitch." Bakugo launched forward and surprised Izuku when he fired a blast faster than before and launched an attack at Mina. Mina attempted to lean back, but could not completely dodge it as his explosion went off near her right shoulder. Mina fell back as her suit blew apart as she fell back. She quickly covered her exposed chest. She had felt a burning sensation at her shoulder where the explosion hit. As a reaction, she sent some more slime-like acid hitting Bakugo in the face.
Izuku moved into action and delivered a roundhouse kick to Bakugo's stomach and send him backward. He removed his jacket and tossed it back to Mina to allow her to cover herself to protect her modesty. He smiled as he saw movement around the corner and turned around to scoop her up and carry her somewhere to check her injury.
Mina clutched his jacket to her chest as she carried away from the fight. She turned looked over his shoulder to several people standing around Bakugo and they looked just like Izuku. "What the hell?" was all she managed to ask before he dashed up the stairs with her.
Back in the viewing room, several people were impressed with his chivalry of giving his jacket to cover up her damaged suit. Kirishima and Tetsutetsu both cried out how manly that was for him to do that before fist-bumping each other in mutual respect. 'Oh god, there are two of them.' Were most of the rooms shared thought? It was when they saw multiple copies of Izuku surrounding the blonde was when everyone that didn't know him got confused.
Mineta was furious that he didn't get to see her chest beforehand and was quite vocal about it. He received furious glares at the females in the room. He was given detention from Shouta for his crude remark. Several male students moved away from him for their own safety from female fury.
"Wait I thought he was quirkless?" Itsuka asked looked at her teacher. "He was able to make some kind of clones of himself." Both classes were curious about the as well looked to the teachers for the answer.
Nezu leaned back in his chair. "His support item allows him to access different abilities depending on the settings." Nezu knew more about what Izuku kind of different abilities he had success too. "Pay attention to what happens next students it may be very educational."
Bakugo wiped the slime from his eyes and snarled as he saw two Deku’s in front of him. “What the fuck is this Deku?” He heard movement around him and turned his head to see two more standing behind him. “You BASTARD have you been lying to me for YEARS!” He lunged forward using an explosion to enhance his attack. He swung his left arm to the closest one. He was inches away when a capture cloth wrapped around his arm from being throwing him off course towards the wall. He barely had enough time to correct his angle to hit his back against the wall instead of his face.
“How rude to ignore us like that.” One Izuku chided Bakugo as he adjust his capture cloth on his shoulders.
"Well, he is just an angry Pomeranian all bark no bite." Said another Izuku holding the cloth attached to Bakugo's arm.
“I feel like that is an insult to Pomeranians.” Said a third reading his capture cloth.
"Well, I would feel sorry if he ever dates someone with all his premature detonations." The Fourth smirked. He dropped in a combat stance waiting for him to react. All four of them started chuckling at him.
Bakugo reacted exactly like they thought he would. Attempted to escape from the cloth, but when he couldn't he sent blast in all directions. Another cloth wrapped around his leg. When pulled he fell to one knee. He attempted to fire off a blast towards one of the cloth wielders, but his arm was knocked upwards with a kick from another. The fourth shoulder checked him into the wall causing Bakugo to have the breath knocked out of him. One of them wrapped his free hand with the capture sloth and pulled him towards them. The last one wrapped a scarf around his last free limb and together they pulled it taut. Before Bakugo could take any of them out they stopped him from causing any more damage by pinning him to the ground wrapping his palms in the capture cloth to stop his explosion from affecting them.
“You have been weighed.” One of them said to Bakugo
“You have been measured.” Said another smirking as he did so.
“And you have been found wanting.” Said a different Izuku looking at his watch as if he was bored.
"Basically we are saying that you are unworthy of us at our best." Said the last one driving home the insult he was giving him by giving him a condensing look.
Bakugo fought hard trying to get free, but the 4 of them had him pinned enough he was trapped. All he could do was rage and scream out all known profanities. He started to build the sweat up in his hands waiting for the right moment to ignite it.
Back in the viewing room, almost everyone was laughing so hard they were in tears. The guys felt a little bad for a couple of those insults, but it was hysterical. Kyoka and Setsuna managed to cover Raphtalia's ears to prevent her from hearing the inappropriate insult and Bakugo profanities but snickered just the same. The Raphtalia had complained about not hearing the joke. Momo and Ochako were having to use each other for support from laughing so hard.
Miruko was laughing the hardest beaming with pride at his insults to the blonde menace. Mt Lady, Ryukyu, Midnight, and Inko just facepalmed at his words as they were sure he got them from Miruko. The screen is split into 4 different views. One Bakugo brawled with the Izuku clones. The second was Tenya finishing his monolog to get into character. The third was outside the door assuming where Toru was waiting. And the last was a room not far from Toru where Izuku had set Mina down in a chair.
Izuku reached for a pouch and pulled out some first aid supplies. "Let me dress your shoulder and then we will go after Ida." He had made sure to lay out what he needed before getting to work. He sprayed her wound with a bit of disinfectant which caused Mina to hiss slightly. Then he added a bit of topical cream for her burns before wrapping it up. "Not too tight now is it?" He asked as he started to put away his supplies.
Mina moved her arm and nodded. "Nope, it's all good. Izuku Thanks. She watched as he turned away to allow her to put on his jacket. She smiled at his chivalry. She zipped up his jacket and turned around. "I'm decent now. Thank you." She waited for him to turn around. "Now excuse me but I have to ask how the hell did you do that?" She pointed back in the direction that they came.
Izuku smiled at her. "Well, time is short so here." He pulled out the SPD Morpher from his pocket. "This allows me to a variety of abilities and what I used was Replication. It allows me to make up 6 clones of myself for a short duration." He watched as Mina's eyes went wide at his ability. "Now let's meet up with Toru before the clones fade away or get destroyed." He told her as started to walk towards the door.
"Wow, you can make up to six clones with just that device? Well, whoever becomes your girlfriend or wife will be one lucky lady with that gadget of yours in the bedroom." Mina mused out louder than she intended thinking. Before blushing at her own statement as she watched Izuku nearly fell from missing a step. "Wait SORRY!" Mina hurried to follow him to head to finish the fight her face an obvious purple as she devolved into a stuttering mess trying to apologize.
Back in the Viewing room, several people had a similar reaction to Mina's words. Izuku girlfriends were a blushing mess at this all sporting heavy blushes at their classmate's words as they remembered the Talk video from the night before started to make their blushes even worse. Thankfully they still had their young friend's ears covered so they did not have to explain that to her anytime soon. The adults were feeling a bit uncomfortable especially his sisters and his mother at her implications. Mineta wisely kept his mouth shut at this knowing he may not survive the encounter from the female population in the room if he spoke his mind. Midnight was about to make a joke, but Ryukyu covered her mouth with her hand before giving her a soft glare. Mt. Lady rested her head in her hand not wanting to think of her brother in that regard. Miruko was on the ground about to bust a gut from laughing her ass off.
Kirishima rested his face in both of his hands at his friend's antics. "OH god, Mina we talked about saying stuff like that in public." He knew there were times she did not have a filter and since she had hit puberty some of those things just made him very uncomfortable.
“Um well.” All Might started to say before clearing his throat. “Villains you have 4 minutes remaining.” Even he was having a hard time not feeling uncomfortable about that comment. The room returned their focus to the match.
Izuku rounded the corner and took off his visor and gave it to Mina. "Now let hurry. We stick to the plan from earlier. Mina and I will rush in and get Ida's attention. You can move around the edge of the room and get the device and we win. Mina will have my visor so you don't get caught in her acid spray. Are you both ready?"
Toru looked at the two of them blushing from something. She was about to ask when Mina waved her off mouthing her ‘tell you later.” Toru shrugged, but let the matter drop.
“Ready.” They answered together.
"Let's go win-." He was interrupted by an explosion that shook the building a bit. "OK, we need to move now." He knew that Bakugo would be here any minute and he was going to be beyond furious by now.
With that Izuku threw the door open and ran in with his teammates right behind him. Izuku watched as Ida tried to start his monolog, but Izuku cut him off. "Sorry in a bit of a hurry. No time for villain drama." Izuku made subtly shifted his Morpher and ran towards the bomb. Ida rushed forward aiming an engine-powered kick at his abdomen to take him out quickly since he was considered the bigger threat. He wished he had a camera to take a picture of Ida's face when his leg went through him like he was a ghost. If only he had not given his visor to Mina. He had used Intangibility to avoid the attack by having Ida phase through him.
Mina had waited for their Ida to launch himself at Izuku (Like he had predicted) and when he did just that. Mina covered his landing area with the same slimy acid she had used on Bakugo. Ida had the same issue as he slid and spun right out of the room and into the wall with a heavy thud.
"And Ida has lost control and has spun into the wall his race is over!" Mina called out as she skated across her acid with the grace of a professional figure skater. They moved over towards the bomb with well over a minute to spare.
"Wahoo that was fun guys now time for the win," Toru said as she was just about to touch the bomb when Bakugo blew in like a missile landing out of the slime looking like a volcano about to erupt.
“YOU BASTARD!” Bakugo roared with all his might. “I WON”T LOSE TO YOU OF ALL PEOPLE DEKU!” He readied for his chance to attack his whole body shaking with rage.
Izuku just smirked at him.
“Lost.” Izuku corrected him “You already lost with your big temper tantrum just now. My teammates touched the bomb for the win.” Izuku pointed over in the direction with his thumb as Mina and Toru with her gloves return thanks to Mina having Izuku jacket had placed their hands on the bomb to end the match. “So you Lost Bakugo. Deal with it." Izuku had emphasized the word lost to make his point to him.
HERO TEAM WINS!
Bakugo shook with unbridled fury at this. He had lost a fight to someone he considered to be nothing, but a piece of dirt on the bottom of his show. He had been top dog for years and everyone knew it! He has on the way to being the Future #1 Hero! He was not about to take this lying down. He watched as Deku turned his back on him to celebrate with his teammates. Deku had just brushed him aside like HE nothing. Like HE was the Deku! His fragile self-control had snapped at this flagrant personal insult Deku had just shown him. He raised his gauntlet and put a finger on the pin. His rage was all-consuming he didn't even care that those extras were behind his target. He heard a voice screaming at him, but he just tuned them out. “I DON’T LOSE TO SCUM LIKE YOU DEKU!” Without another moment of hesitation, he pulled the pin.
The viewing room exploded with activity as people reacted to Bakugo going over the edge as he raised his Gauntlet to pull the pin. All Might, Miruko, Ryukyu, and Shouta ran for the door were gone the moment he touched the pin. Midnight took the headset and started screaming at him to stand down the match was over, but he was not responding. Mt. Lady moved to support Inko as she went pale in fright at Bakugo's actions for losing. Kyoka and Setsuna turned Raphtalia away from the screen and held her close as they watched the pin be pulled. Momo and Ochako covered their mouths to suppress their screams. The rest of the room had a horrified or shocked look on their faces at the reactions of the blonde losing a match.
Only one person in the room didn’t seem upset at this was Monoma who just smirked with delight as the blonde pointed his Gauntlet.
(Power Rangers Ninja Storm OST)
Several things happened in rapid succession. Izuku changed his Morpher and morphed. “Thunder Storm, Ranger Form! Ha! Power of Thunder!” He morphed into the Navy Thunder Ranger. He grabbed his Thunder Staff and changed it into the Thunder Shield and moved in front of his teammates. "YOU WON'T HARM MY FRIENDS!" He screamed as the explosion hit his Thunder Shield.
Mina and Toru saw the massive explosion go off and felt the heat and air rushing towards them. They were frozen in fear as they watch Izuku change in a flash of blue and stand in front of them as the explosion hit some kind of shield. They were forced to close their eyes to the light and debris that was blown their way. When they opened their eyes they noticed the explosion had been deflected around them as on both sides the floor was black from the explosion. Their ears were ringing a bit from the explosion. They looked to see Izuku had not moved an inch as smoke rose from his gloves. He looked unharmed. The wall behind them had two large holes where the explosion had been redirected away from them.
Izuku shifted the shield back into its staff form. He looked over his shoulder “Are you two ok?” He asked them in a calm tone and concern could also be heard in his voice.
Y-Yeah I’m not hurt.” Toru said her voice shaky from almost being hit by the explosion. She looked over to see Mina looking terrified, but unhurt. “I don’t think Mina is hurt either, just scared at the moment.” Toru placed a hand on Mina’s shoulder and she flinch slightly before snapping out of it and looking at her surroundings.
"It's OK Mina. Because I am here." Izuku said in a soothing tone. "I will keep you both safe until the teachers arrive. Just stay behind me." Izuku turned back and took a step towards Bakugo resting his staff on his shoulder. Mina and Toru had to admit he looked every bit the hero standing in front of him. It reminded them of valiant heroes in an anime that saves people just in the nick of time.
"Now Bakugo have you lost what little sense you have left?" Izuku's tone became harsh as Bakugo looked stunned that Izuku had been unharmed from his attack. "I have put up with a lot of things from you in the past 10 years, but this takes the cake." Izuku summoned the Navy Antler to his free hand. "I have put up with getting beat up from you and your gang of no-name thugs. Used as a punching bag with your quirk for your 'Hero' training. Years of emotional abuse for being Qurikless. I even put up with you telling me to 'Take swan dive off the roof and hope for a quirk in the next life." Izuku put his Thunder Staff away and switched the Navy Antler to his right hand. "I will not let you harm anyone that I call my friend. Now I will give you one chance to stand down and surrender until the teachers arrive to deal with you." His tone left no room for debate with his former friend.
Bakugo had been dumbfounded to see Deku was unharmed from his most powerful attack. He just deflected like it was nothing to him. He snapped out of his stupor when he heard him berating him like he was in the wrong here! Like he was a child being scolded for misbehaving. “Fuck you Deku!” He launched himself forward preparing to get close and pull his last pin on his gauntlet.
Deku let out a sigh as he jumped forward and grabbed Bakugo by his left wrist with his free hand pointing it up towards the ceiling away from himself and his teammates. He grasped Bakugo's remaining gauntlet with the Navy Antler using just enough pressure for it to shatter the gauntlet with the pin to pieces. The stored-up sweat splashed on the floor. "Ok, that is just gross." Izuku joked as he moved away from the puddle of explosive sweat. Izuku tossed Bakugo back away preventing him from igniting the puddle of sweat.
Izuku switched his Morpher again. “Ninja Storm, Ranger Form.Ha! Power of Water.” Izuku switched in the Blue Ninja Ranger. He summoned a large amount of water and drenched his Bakugo to dilute his sweat. Izuku switched back to his Navy Thunder Ranger form and summoned his Navy Antlers back to his hand.
"No more massive explosions for you." Izuku watched Bakugo struggle to shake the water off and make an explosion. Bakugo was not going down without a fight. He kept trying to make explosions with his free hand but he wasn't able to make anything bigger than a spark. He lunged forward trying to grab at Izuku to try and grapple him. Izuku caught him by the wrist had held him at an arm's length "Just stop this has gone on long enough." Izuku told him as he started to thrash around trying to break free of his grip. Izuku stopped that by opening his Navy Antler and closing it around Bakugo's waist preventing him from moving around too much. "Now Bakugo you are a smart boy. What comes after Thunder?"
“GO TO HELL! YOU BASTARD!” Bakugo screamed still trying to break free. Barely missed Deku stupid bug helmet with his free hand. He was not beaten as long as he could keep fighting. He was not going to lose after coming this far with showing the world he going to top the chart! He was going to kill him as soon as he got loose!
“Wrong. The answer is Lightning." Izuku channel just enough lightning that along with the water was enough to cause the blonde's body to seize and go limp as he passed out. Izuku released the Antler's grip and lowered him to the ground. "Why do you have to be so stubborn Bakugo?" Izuku asked as he turned back to check on Mina and Toru.
As he got close to them he power down and knelt them in front of them. "Hey are sure you girls ok?" He asked them eyes full of concern. They just stared at him blinking. (He assumed since he couldn't see Toru's face at the moment). "Do I need to get a nurse for you guys or-"
Mina lunged forward and arms around his chest hugging him tight as buried her face in the crook of his neck to cry. He felt Toru do the same on his opposite shoulder as they thanked him for saving them. “It’s ok you are safe now.” Patted them both on their heads. He let out a tired sigh as he comforted his classmates.
'Hopefully, I didn't worry everybody too much.' Izuku though grateful that the match was finally over. Now he just wanted to relax and see his girlfriends.
“Izuku.”
"Yes, Mina?"
“Are we really your friends?” Mina asked still holding him tight. “You told that prick that you won’t let him hurt his friends.”
Izuku nodded. "Yes. I consider both of you my friends." Izuku hugged them both. "I'm just glad I made it in time. I'm sorry." Izuku's new friends almost got hurt because a decade-old grudge with Bakugo came to a flashpoint.
“Why are you apologizing?” Toru asked shift so she could look him at his face. “You save the two of us and knocked out the rabid Pomeranian.”
"Well, he almost hurt you two because-."
“Because he lost a match and got pissed off.” Toru interrupted him.
"Yeah, he got bent out of shape after we had already won. It's not your fault.” Mina confirmed as gently slapped his shoulder. “You are not responsible for his actions. He is.”
Izuku smiled. “Thank you.” Izuku was relaxed a bit as he knew they didn’t blame him for how their exercise had ended.
Back in on the viewing room, the room broke out into cheers as Izuku took down Bakugo in Kirishima and Tetsutetsu called him 'beyond manly.' Many were horrified to hear everything he went through with the Bakugo and many were wondering why he was in the Hero Course at all. This caused various discussions to form during the class.
While most of the classes had been talking about the final showdown. Monoma had been recording it with his phone and sent a copy of the video to his father and uncle. He sent a text message along with it -A possible Ally to take down the freak. He slide his phone back into his pocket smiling as he saw no one had seen him do a thing. He was waiting for what to do next for their plans to advance their family fortunes.
Unbeknownst to Monoma though Nezu has seen the whole thing and smiled with glee as was ready to knock the Monoma family down a few pegs with his new plan.
Inko had breathed easier when she saw him take down his childhood bully. It had been hard for her to watch them fight it out like this as she remembered a simpler time when they used to play together. She was just grateful that her son was unharmed. She was angry at Bakugo for how he had treated her son, but she was also good friends with his mother it gave her mixed emotions.
Midnight had let out a deep sigh at what had happened here. This would result in Bakugo expulsion for using a dangerous item and using it after the match had ended. It could have resulted in the serious injuries of 3 students. She was proud of her brother for standing up to him and saving the day. That boy would be an amazing hero and his actions today showed that in spades. She did not feel sorry for Bakugo having to stand in front of Nezu for his actions here today.
Mt. Lady was cheering for him loudly. "OH Yeah take you little blonde ba- I mean bomber!" She looked to see Raphtalia's ears were not being covered anymore. "That just proves he deserves to be here!" She was beaming with pride and had made sure to fill out her internship form when she came here today. She would get him as her intern with planning this far ahead of her sisters.
The girls let out a sigh of relief as they watched Izuku take charge and change into two different Ranger forms to make sure their rabid classmate stayed down. They all shared a look of pride as they watched him be a great hero and protect his classmates from that massive explosion.
Raphtalia got to see Izuku take down the blonde in a somewhat flashy way. She had been worried when the explosion went off that her Papa was going to get hurt, but then with a flash of blue and he was safe. She loved everything to do with the Power Rangers and was wanting new dolls for both of the blue Rangers he used today. "Yeah! Papa won. Papa won!" The young girl exclaimed with excitement. Then she remembered she was in public and that was supposed to be a secret. "Oops." She muttered before curling into Setsuna in embarrassment. As the 4 girls froze at her words and knew this was going to get loud.
"PAPA?!!!" Most of the room exclaimed in shock and confusion at the young girl's statements. Several students looked like they were about to rush the poor girl wanting answers, but Momo and Ochako stood up and glared hard enough they decided against it. Kyoka and Setsuna moved close to protect her as well along with glaring at the group as well. Any further attempts or thoughts about hounding the young girl questions died at that moment at 4 angry protective glares. Kirishima, Tetsutetsu, Itsuka, and Ibara moved over to help them as well by creating a buffer. Fumikage and Hitoshi followed suit by taking a protective stance as well. This settled them down slightly, but it had not stopped the chatter in the classroom.
Nezu leaned back into his chair enjoying all the chaos of the students and watched as more was brewing from the young girl’s innocent words. Nezu loved chaos like this since it was easy to control and even more so when it came to creating it with minimal effort. He has just received a message from Power Loader that Mei was on her way after watching the match via remote access looking to 'break that blonde bastard's legs with a sledgehammer.' Nezu smirked at the message and waited for her arrival to amplify the chaos a little more.
Mei had been working at her lab station on a new baby that she had thought of after Izuku had kissed her for making his suit. She had been happily adjusting the gears on it when DECA got her attention. "Mei you have received a message from Ochako that Izuku is going to be in the first group at the Battle training for their afternoon class," DECA stated from her fox body as she moved closer to a monitor near her bench.
"Oh cool. Can you patch the audio and visual feeds into the monitor so I can watch him?" Mei asked to test the gears for tightness and had to make a few more adjustments. She had come up with a way for him to launch smoke bombs from his wrist as a way to distract or escape from someone.
"Affirmative Mei," DECA replied as she ejected a connector from her tail and connected to the Monitor. It took a few moments, but then it showed Izuku on the screen planning with his two teammates. A pink girl and a pair of shoes and floating gloves. “Who are his teammates?” Mei asked as she set down the device she was working on and focused her attention on his teammates since she was a little curious about who was with her Zuzu.
"Mina Ashido, Quirk Acid, and Toru Hagakure, Quirk Invisibility. Both are members of 1-A." DECA stated in a matter-of-fact tone. "It seems that he is facing Tenya Ida, Quirk Engines and Katsuki Bakugo, Quirk Explosion."
Mei dropped the tool that she had been holding. "Wait Zuzu is facing that blonde asshole in battle training?" Mei was not happy about it one bit. She knew enough about that Baku-hoe that she had wanted to break his kneecaps with a wrench, but Zuzu had persuaded her not to do that. She gave her full attention to the screen in front of her.
"That is Affirmative Mei," DECA confirmed for her.
Mei had watched as the match started and had noticed that the invisible girl had taken off her shoes and handed her gloves over to Zuzu since he had pockets then Mei had lost track of her. She watched as they made their way up the stairs as and Mei clenched her fist as she watched the bastard come close to hitting him. She watched with glee as her Zuzu flipped him and slammed him into the ground. She had been confused as to what he was doing until she saw several copies of himself follow behind the blonde bomber.
She watched in fascination as Izuku and the pink girl Mina set up the hallway with a type of acid on the floor and walls. Mei had been watching with interest as it looked planned. After a few minutes, the blonde bomber came flying in right up until his foot hit the acids and he slipped and crashed into the wall before falling face-first in the slick acid. Mei couldn't help but laugh at what happened. She enjoyed watching him get what was coming to him after all these years.
She watched in surprise when he attacked Mina and injured her along with partially destroying her suit top. She also gave him a parting gift of that slick slime to his face. Zuzu tossed her his jacket to be a gentleman. Mei made some notes to redesign and improve Mina's suit and maybe make something for the invisible girl. She made a few notes as she watch Zuzu run with Mina up a flight of stairs.
Mei watched at the Zuzu clones put the smackdown on Baka-go and enjoyed all the insults Zuzu was saying to him. Mei's face was burning heavily with a blush at what Mina had insulated about with Izuku and clones in the bedroom. She blamed her mother for giving her the talk again just because she was dating Zuzu. She had to reach over and turn her personal fan to cool herself off.
She smiled as she watched as Izuku tricked the engine guy into rushing towards him and used an SPD ability to his advantage. She snickered at Mina's joke and hoped she would get to make some more friends soon. She grinned when she heard it they won she cheered loudly. All her enjoyment left when she saw that bastard raise his gauntlet at Zuzu.
"ZUZU!" Mei screamed at the monitor as that bastard pulled the pin on his gauntlet. Mei's hands went to her mouth in horror at how far this guy going over one lost battle. She felt relief when she watched him Morph into a new Ranger and endure the explosion. "Oh Yeah Get him Zuzu!" Mei cheered in excitement. She watched her boyfriend crush his opponent's gauntlet with ease. She watched him switch to another Ranger just to drench his opponent to remove his explosive abilities before switching back. She was beaming with pride when he finally took him with a shocking ending. She was proud of her pun there.
She turned around to see most of the Support students and teacher behind her with looks of amazement at watching the match. "Uh. Hey guys what's up?" Mei asked at all the people around her.
“What’s up? That green hair kid just survived an explosion from that explosion kids Gauntlets. How is that possible?” One of the students asked incredulously.
“Wait isn’t that the kid from those news reports? He faced the Slime guy, worked with Mt. Lady on the tower rescue, and he faced that wanted criminal right?” A girl from the class asked.
"Oh, that's right!" Another person chimed in.
“I am so sending him an offer to be his support person.” A different classmate chimed in.
“What! No way!
“Yeah let us have a chance!”
Mei had had enough of their bickering and let out a loud and ear-piercing whistle that silenced everyone. "First of his name is Izuku Midoriya. Yes, that was him in his Ranger suits. No, you can't send him any offers because I am already his personal support person." Mei showed the paperwork on her desk with his name and signature on it. "I also have the signature for Ochako Uraraka, Setsuna Tokage, Kyoka Jirou, and Momo Yaoyorozu for their suits and equipment." Mei grit her teeth as her classmates complained loudly that she had too many students as her clients and that she should share some of them with her classmates.
"Alright Enough!" Power Loader called out over the voice of the students. "Mei has the proper paperwork approved by myself and she will be in charge of those students until they graduated or they decide to have a change support techs. Life is not fair and you should not expect the support course to be any different. The better your equipment is made the more people will want your equipment." He looked at all of his students. "I suggest you all start putting your best efforts in your items or risk getting left behind your other classmates." Power Loader watched as the students went back to their station grumbling about the 'teacher's pet' as they worked on their support items. "You OK?"
Mei let out a sigh as she leaned back against her "Yeah nothing new I have to deal with." Mei looked over at the screen and decided to go pay a visit to Zuzu and the others. "Now if you will excuse me I need to go check on my client and make sure his gear is working properly." She walked over and placed her paperwork on her desk and locked it. She picked up DECA and started to walk towards the door before making a stop at the tool closet and grabbed a 20lbs sledgehammer with ease.
"UH Mei what are you doing with that sledgehammer? Power Loader asked afraid of what his student's answer was going to be.
"Oh, nothing serious," Mei said looked him at him with a straight face. "Just going break that blonde bastard's legs with a sledgehammer for trying to hurt Zuzu." With that, she dashed out of the room at a quick pace as if she was not planning to do anything wrong.
“Oh Hell.” Power Loader said before sending his boss a text message. He wanted to run after her, but he was not about to leave a bunch of students unattended with dangerous and untested equipment.

Chapter Text
“HAVE NO FEAR FOR I AM- oh.” All Might said looking to see Bakugo already on the ground unconscious and Midoriya comforting his teammates. All Might cleared his throat “Well done Young Midoriya. I am glad to see you and your classmates are alright.” All Might walked over to place a pair of quirk suppressing cuffs on Bakugo. "Why don't you 3 walk Young Ida back to the observation room while we get this all sorted out. "
Izuku and his friends nodded at his instructions and separated from their impromptu comforting hug and started to walk to their other classmate when two blurs flew through the door latching on to him.
“Izuku! Are you all right? Did the blond asshole hurt you?” Miruko asked hugging him so hard it almost made his back pop. She looked him over checking for any injuries. She was tempted to go kick the blonde while he was down, but not with All Might right next to him.
“Are you hurt anywhere do we need to take you to see Recovery Girl or your Mom?” Ryukyu asked holding him tight as well before looking him over as well. She was grateful that he was safe. She kept an eye on her sister knowing she would be tempted to deal out some ‘justice’ towards Bakugo and she couldn’t blame her since she wanted to as well, but that would be unheroic. How unfortunate.
Mina, Toru, and Ida were surprised to see two pro Heroines fussing over their classmate like they were his mother. They watched as he tried to wave them off and tried to escape, but they were not taking no for an answer. They watched their homeroom teacher walk into the room with medical robots to place Bakugo on a stretcher and All Might and their teacher talked for a moment before walking out of the room as if escorting a prisoner.
Izuku let out a sigh as his sisters started to calm down enough for him to make them believe he was fine. "Look I swear I am fine. I promise, but my teammates needed to be checked for injuries at least." Izuku was almost begging for them to believe him. It was then that he realized something. "Wait what are you two doing here anyway? I know for a fact that you both were supposed to be out on your patrol routes today?" He was starting to have a bad feeling about this.
Ryukyu looked a little abashed "Well we heard from Mom that you were having your first Heroic class and we decided to make a surprise visit to support you." She laughed at his surprised expression. "What we are allowed to drop by UA." She didn't mention that it was not something Pros did very often but did so when they were scouting a specific student for their agencies.
"Yeah, I was glad I didn't miss it this. You did very well fighting that blonde runt, especially with how he had a meltdown. Mom and Raphtalia were also here to watch you as well." Miruko add as she beamed with sisterly pride at his absolute trashing of Bakugo.
"What? Mom and Raphtalia are here too? Let me guess Midnight and Mt. Lady came to watch my training session as well?" Izuku was afraid this would happen. They wanted to come to see him in action and it was going to be extremely embarrassing if his mother brought his baby picture with her.
"Yep, we got a good show coming here to watch you today," Miruko replied with a smirk. "I am so proud of you little brother." She froze as she registered what she had just said. "Oops." She looked over to Ryukyu facepalmed at her letting the cat out of the bag. Then again they had said Mom several times so she had not helped the issue either.
“Mom? Raphtalia? Brother?!” His three classmates exclaimed in surprise before looking back and forth between the three of them.
Izuku let out a tired sigh. “Whelp guess the cat is out of the bag now.” Izuku pinched the bridge of his nose. “Mina, Toru, and Ida meet my Sisters Miruko and Ryukyu.” He gestured to his sisters. “Miruko and Ryukyu. Please meet my classmates.” The Pro Heroines waved at his classmates as they were a bit stunned at the revelation “As you both recall from class earlier Midnight is also my sister along with Mt. Lady.” Izuku figured it was like a Band-Aid one swift motion would make it better than to drag it out.
They just stared at him in disbelief. Their classmate had just claimed to be the little brother of 4 well-known Pro Heroines and was acting like it was no big deal. Ida was having not having a hard time processing this as his brother was the Pro Hero Ingenium and he would prefer to keep it to himself. Mina and Toru were in awe of such amazing Heroines were standing in front of them. They were both resisting the urge to ask for an autograph or a selfie with such amazing Heroines.
Ryukyu chuckled. “I think you broke them Izuku.” She snapped her fingers in front of them to get them to snap out of it. “Now it is a pleasure to meet you all, but I think we need to get back to the viewing room so the next match may proceed. I am sure Mom and Raphtalia will want to see you as well to make sure you are Ok Izuku.”
Izuku agreed with his sister. “I think that is a -.”
"Izuku get back here quick! Mei is trying to go after Bakugo with a Sledgehammer! Momo's voice filled his com-link and his eyes went wide. "Oh Shit." Before he took off in a dead sprint. Miruko and Ryukyu quickly on their brother's heels.
“Language!” Ida called out. He was utterly ignored by everyone.
“Wait who is Raphtalia?” Mina asked chasing after them “I want to know!”
“Hey wait for me guys! I want to know too!” Toru called out chasing after them.
Ida let out a tired sigh and jogged after them at a brisk pace. Wondering if this madness would stay for the rest of the year or if it was a one-time thing.
The viewing room had settled down for the most part with Vlad and Midnight being able to restore order quickly for both classes. Setsuna and Kyoka had been able to calm down the small girl to get her to stop hiding from everyone. Seats had been rearranged by the teachers so that those students who helped create a buffer around Raphtalia earlier were now seated in a similar way so that the other students could not hound her for answers. Ochako went and got the girl's backpack from Inko to get a few of her dolls from her bag to help her relax. Raphtalia's eyes lit up and hugged them close to her chest with a smile. Many in the room smiled at the young girl’s reactions to having her dolls to hold. Especially since they looked just like Izuku.
Inko felt at ease watching the girls take care of her and become very protective of her that quickly. ‘I feel a great swell of pity for the poor soul who comes to harm that girl in any way, shape, or form. If Mama Bears doesn't take care of that person then Papa definitely will.' She wanted to have a family dinner with them now. Her son knew how to pick amazing women in his life. Ever since her divorce, it had been just Izuku and Her in their apartment. Now she had daughters in all, but blood and a granddaughter. After they graduated from UA she would add several daughters-in-law. Her family had grown and looked forward to the day she was surrounded by family and many more grandchildren.
The room turned to the sound of something running towards them and in came a silver metallic fox ran into the room sliding to a stopping front of Inko. "Mei watched the match between Izuku and Bakugo and is very upset. She is right behind me with a sledgehammer to break his legs! We have to stop her!" DECA synthesized voice exclaimed.
Inko looked at Mt. Lady who had quickly made her way to the door as the pink hair girl came into the room with a sledgehammer in hand. "Where is Bakugo?" Her voice was tight and full of rage.
“Mei dear, please calm down. Izuku and the teachers have already taken care of it so please put the hammer down.” Mt. Lady told her with a gentle tone. She had been watching for any signs that Mei would tell how she was going to react.
Mei seemed to think for a moment of what she had said. "OK, I will put the hammer down." Her tone was calm and she lower the hammer slightly. The room seemed to relax at the fact she was lowering the sledgehammer.
Mt. Lady let out a sigh of relief at the girl’s words. “Great now just hand me the please and we can-.”
“I’m going to lay the hammer down on his legs!” She shouted raising the Hammer back up and started moving towards the other door again.
“Oh Hell.” Mt. Lady said as she rushed to stop her and grabbed the hammer. It was easy to see that Mei was incredibly strong without a strength enhancement quirk. “UH a little help here?” she asked as Mei had locked her arms and grip making it hard to wrench it from her. Soon Kirishima and Tetsutetsu rushed to her aid and they tried to do the same.
"Jesus this chick is strong," Tetsutetsu said straining as his foot slid across the floor as Mei was powering through them with each step she took.
"Yeah, no kidding!" Kirishima agreed as he struggled to keep his footing as well. "We need more help please!"
Ibara was the next to aid them with the use of her vines. “Please settle down Miss Mei. The Bible frowns on harming our fellow man.” Ibara could feel her Vines were not holding her any better holding her in place. Ibara did not like what Bakugo just tried to do just now, but vengeance was not the answer.
“It’s a little vague on Kneecaps!” Mei replied taking another step towards the door.
Momo looked at Ochako. “Go give them a hand while I call Izuku and get him to calm her down.
"On it," Ochako replied as she rushed to help. She was soon joined by Midnight trying to stop the girl.
"Izuku get back here quick! Mei is trying to go after Bakugo with a Sledgehammer!" Momo called into the Com-link. She rushed over to help the others still trying to stop Mei. It was terrifying that seven of them were straining to stop her against her crusade to get Bakugo. "Miss Midnight can't you use your quirk on her?" Momo asked giving it everything she had to stop her.
“Somnambulist works better on men than women and if I released it now all of you would be exposed to it and I can’t guarantee she would fall asleep fast enough.” Midnight replied with a strained voice.
Izuku rushed through the door. "MEI!" he called out before moving towards her. When she didn't respond to him he got closer and gently placed his hands on both sides of her face. "Mei!"
Mei's eyes snapped to his face with a confused look. "Zuzu?" she asked before realizing he was in front of her. She stopped fighting against everyone and they all let out a breath of relief at this. Everyone took a step back but was still waiting to jump back in if needed.
"Mei I want you to take a deep breathe with me ok?" Izuku asked her. When she nodded he had her follow his breathing. "In and Out." They did this several times and her muscles were starting to relax. "Mei I know you were worried about what happened, but I am not hurt." He let her move her head look him over.
"I saw him raise his gauntlet." Mei started before tears started to fall down her face. "I-I was afraid that he-he." She relaxed the grip on the hammer enough that Kirishima had been able to swiftly get the sledgehammer from her and move away from her. Mei felt her knees beginning to shake.
"Mei, I need you to focus on me and calm down. You are scaring Raphtalia and I know you don't want to do that right?" Izuku asked as gesturing to the small girl being held by Kyoka and Setsuna. Izuku could tell Mei was very upset and needed a bit more help to get her to calm down. Time for his secret weapon.
Mei dropped to her knees. "I-I didn't mean to." She started to say, but Izuku squatted down and hugged her. Mei was shocked at how angry she had been. She was going to seriously harm Bakugo with that sledgehammer. She had not been that angry in such a long time that it had frightened her. She started to shake a bit.
"Shh." He whispered gently. "It's ok," Izuku started to rub her back to help calm her when he gestured for Raphtalia to come over. She hesitated for a moment but rushed to his side. "Raphtalia can you give Mei a hug to make her feel better please?"
“Sure!” Raphtalia said giving Mei a big hug. “I’m not scared anymore I promise Mei-mei.” Mei hugged the girl tight with one arm and hugged Izuku with the other. Several people were impressed with how he had got her to settle down after seven people couldn't stop her from almost committing a massacre on Bakugo.
Ryukyu was impressed with the Mei as to how strong she was to keep moving through after all of those people tried to stop her. 'If I didn't know any better I think Mei has a secret she is not telling us about.' she thought to herself. It could be her natural strength, but that was a problem for another day.
"I think we should have let her break his legs." Miruko comment from behind her. "I mean I wouldn't have let her do too much damage." She wanted to punish that bastard for trying to harm her brother, but will All Might there as security she was not able to try anything. Ryukyu elbowed her in the ribs and shot her a look. "What?" Miruko asked rubbing her ribs. "I was just thinking out loud."
Ryukyu sighed at her antics. "I understand the feeling, but that could have caused Mei to get expelled, arrested, or both for assaulting him." She silently agreed with her sister, but passion overruled Mei's reasoning in her attempt to punish Bakugo.
After she had completely calmed down stood up and bowed her head to everyone in the room. “I am so sorry about what happened and for causing problems with your class.” She moved at looked at Nezu. “I am sorry sir for my conduct I will accept any punishment you deem fit sir.” Mei was ashamed of herself for losing control like that. She just hoped she didn’t lose anyone as a possible client for her business for the way she had acted just now.
Nezu smiled at her. "We can all agree that the fight got everyone a bit emotional. Seems like it affected some of us more than others. I will let you off with a very stern warning since no one was actually injured in your attempt and if you do anything like that again I have to give you a formal punishment Miss Hatsume. Understand?" Nezu was surprised to see that Mei was the one to try and injure Bakugo. He figured there was something else behind her motivation since she was usually very easygoing and kind.
"Yes Sir," Mei replied quietly. "May I stay and watch the remaining match's sir?" Mei didn't want to be alone at the moment and wanted to stay close to her boyfriend and her friends for emotional support.
Nezu seemed to think for a moment. “As long as you can control yourself I will allow you to say Hatsume.”
"I understand and thank you, sir," Mei replied still with a quiet tone. Izuku guided her over to where his girlfriends were sitting. Everyone adjusted their seating to allow her to sit on his left and Ochako on his right. Raphtalia was happy sitting on his lap for the moment but waved at Setsuna who gave her a wink.
Ochako leaned over and whispered "Just a heads up. Raphtalia got over-excited to see your new Ranger forms and called you Papa by accident." Ochako so badly want to kiss him, but had enough restraint to wait until they were alone. She had to admit watching him fight like that had made her feel a bit hot and bothered.
Izuku looked down and kissed the Raphtalia on the head. “It’s ok it was bound to happen.” Izuku felt like he was forgetting something important. Right up until he heard the twin squeals off to the side. He looked to see Mina and Toru standing looking at the Izuku and Raphtalia. ‘Oh hell.’
"Oh is this cutie Raphtalia? Mina asked bouncing with energy.
"Oh my god, she is SO adorable," Toru said matching Mina's excited energy.
Izuku felt Raphtalia get a bit shy. “Don’t rush her please, but yes this is her. Can you wave at them?” Izuku watched as she gave them a shy wave which made them squeal with delight. Izuku “Thank you for doing that.” He felt her tail start to swish with happiness at his praise. He started to pet her head which caused her to start purring.
Before Mina or Toru could say anything more Inko came and tapped Mina on her uninjured shoulder. "Hello, Ladies as much as you are enjoying your time with that sweet little bundle of joy. My name is Nurse Midoriya and I need to take a look at your shoulder Miss Ashido and I want to check you for injury as well Miss Hagakure." Inko led them out of the room as they left the room they could hear Mina trying to ask questions.
"Wait Midoriya? Are you related to Izuku?" Mina asked. "Is Raphtalia his sister then?" Toru was asking a similar question as she followed behind Inko.
Kirishima, Kaminari, Fumikage, and Shinso moved over to talk with him as the teachers were working out what they needed to do to keep the class going for the afternoon.
"That was super manly how you took down Bakugo using your scarf Mido-bro." Kirishima flexed as he was in awe of how he fought and was able to protect his best friend. "I owe you for taking care of Mina man. I have known her since we were 5 years old." Kirishima had been worried about her when Bakugo raised that massive gauntlet of his and realized Mina was in the line of fire. He wanted a few minutes with Bakugo after what he almost did in his temper tantrum.
"Oh, it was nothing really. I mean she was my teammate and my friends I wouldn't have let her get hurt if I could help it." Izuku was feeling a bit embarrassed at the praise he was getting. Even after all this time, he was still embarrassed by it.
“I disagree there Midoriya. It was rather impressive how you fought and used his aggression against him.” Fumikage said as he was nodding in approval of him. “I learned a lot from watching you fight. If it is not too much trouble I would like to train with you and see if you can help me improve.” Dark shoulder appear from underneath his cape and nodded along with him giving Izuku a thumbs up before disappearing back into the cape.
"We heard what you said to Bakugo during your fight Midoriya," Shinso said to him. He watched him tense up at this. "I just have to say I agree with Kirishima and Fumikage that you are quite impressive and I want to train with you as well."
"Oh." Izuku was not sure how he felt about that. For the longest time that was a private issue between the two of them. He eventually shared with his family and mentor. He eventually shared it with his girlfriends, but that was because he had trusted them with his life that he wanted them to know. He was not sure he was ready for both classes to know about, but the cat was out of the bag now. “I didn’t know you all could hear what I said.”
“Don’t worry about it Midoriya. I understand not wanting to talk about it. I was bullied for a long time with my quirk people called me a villain all the time.” Shinso said to him with a kind smile. “I only know of one other person that treated me with kindness besides you when they learned of what I could do.”
"Dude you are serious a nice guy that basically beat the pants of his bully and knocked him down a few pegs." Kaminari gave him a wicked grin. "I wish I could have done the same when I was younger to some of my bullies as well, but we are your friend's man." Kaminari gave him a thumbs-up as the other 3 nodded in agreement.
"Thank you, guys," Izuku said in a small voice and bowed his head towards them. He felt his daughter hug him tightly. He graciously returned to hug.
Midnight cleared her throat as she and Mt. Lady stood in front of both classes to get their attention. "With All Might and Mr. Aizawa busy right now Mt. Lady and I will be taking over for the remainder of this class." She gestures to the screen to get the class back on track. "I will let Mr. Aizawa go over the match results in greater detail tomorrow in your homeroom class with you all. I would like to start the next match." Midnight tells the class as she draws the next pairings. "Next up is."
Team B vs Team I
Shoto Todoroki & Mezo Shoji (Heroes) Vs Mashirao Ojiro & Mineta Minoru (Villains)
"Alright, Villain team you have 15 minutes to set up your building and prepare to repel the hero team to the best of your abilities." Midnight called out to both teams.
Mineta complained loudly about not being paired with any of the 'hot girls in the class for his teammate, which led to him being hit with a rock from someone in the room, No one knew who threw it or admitted to throwing it. The villain team set up a few minor traps waiting near the bomb waiting for the match to start.
"I don't think this match is going to be very interesting," Momo stated as they watched their Villain team finish their preparations. "They only made minimal traps and both of their opponents have very power quirks at their disposal."
Izuku hummed as looked over the match. "I think you are right Momo." Izuku agreed with her. "Ojiro is close combat fighter and Minoru is a mid-ranger fighter as best. While Shoji is also a CQC fighter his quirk allows him to be flexible and I agree the Todoroki is a powerhouse and a close and long-range fighter."
Kyoko smiled at this. “Well let’s see how this plays out the way you two nerds think it will.” She got the reaction she wanted when she teased them and they blushed a bit realizing they got lost in their analysis.
"Be nice Kyoka," Ochako said to her best friend with a wink. "Wouldn't want them to get too flustered before the match even starts." She started giggling at the looks of betrayal they sent towards her.
“Heroes team you may begin.” Midnight called out to the team over the radio. Allowing the screen to split to show both teams.
"Stay still I don't want you to get caught up in this," Todoroki said in a monotone voice over the speaker. Before he raised his foot and slammed it down freezing the whole building solid and freezing the villain team in place.
The viewing room looked at this in awe of how powerful he was for being able to do that with so little exertion from him. "Wow, that was a cold finish." Mt. Lady joked and received a deadpan look from Midnight. "What? It was just so perfect I couldn't pass it up." Miruko and Ryukyu both were booing at her poor attempt at a joke. Mt. Lady shot them a dirty look since she could not flip them off in front of her students.
HERO TEAM WINS.
“I feel bad for Ojiro for not getting a chance to show off his skills, but I was wondering if we could just leave that grape pervert frozen for rest of the day?” Setsuna asked and got a murmuring of agreements from the female students and guests in the room with his recent inappropriate comments. The rest of the class also agreed on how unfair it was for Ojiro not being able to show off his skills was a little disappointing.
"We cannot Miss Tokage, but rest assured his behavior will be corrected by the teachers before the end of school today. Nezu replied they got a general agreement from both classrooms. They were all sad to see said grape pervert be thawed out by Todoroki. "This is only the first class I am sure there will be many more chances for him to get a chance to show his abilities.
"Well, Todoroki was a recommended student for a reason," Momo stated in a matter-of-fact tone. She watched his impressive display of power at their exams and knew he would be one of the school's top students.
“Isn’t he the son of the Number 2 hero Endeavor?” Asked at 1-B student. Several more students joined in on that discussion.
"All right time for the next groups to be drawn for the next match." Mt Lady called out to them as she drew lots.
Team C vs Team J
Momo Yaoyorozu & Ochako Uraraka (Heroes) Vs Eijiro Kirishima & Hanta Sero (Villains)
Momo and Ochako headed to their waiting area to plan as Kirishima and Sero were setting up their base for the round. Izuku had been watching the prep work for both teams when he saw Mina and Toru move over to take their empty seats near him. Toru had gotten dressed into a tracksuit and Mina had on a gym shirt. "Hey, Izuku can so I heard from your Mom that Raphtalia is your daughter that you basically adopted and the adorable story behind her calling you Papa," Mina said with a grin he had seen on his sisters faces before. Mina had handed him back the jacket he had lent her. He draped it over the arm of his chair.
"Oh, she did?" Izuku asked as she looked back to see his mother trying to look completely innocent, but was unable to have a small smirk on her face. "Well I would do anything to make her happy and I do consider her to be my daughter." Izuku was not ashamed of that fact one bit.
Mina cooed at his words and looked at the adorable girl “Hello there my name is Mina.” She held her arms open. “Can I please hug you?” Mina asked her gesturing with her hands to come to her. “Pretty Please?” Mina pouted slightly as she loved being around small children and she looked after her own younger siblings all the time.
Raphtalia looked at Izuku for permission and when he nodded 'yes' she slid over and hugged Mina. She liked how Mina started to fuss over her as her other mama did. She got a lot of praise for being cute as a button. She looked over to Mama Setsuna and when their eyes met Raphtalia gave her a mischievous smile and that made Mama Setsuna smile with pride.
"Wow, Miss Mina you are so pretty," Raphtalia exclaimed as she looked up to Mina her tail wagging in excitement. "Maybe someday I hope can be as pretty as you!" Raphtalia gave her a big smile as Mina got even more excited and hugged her tightly.
"OMG you are so adorable I want to hug you all day," Mina said as she smiled brightly at the girl.
"Hey, no fair Mina you need to share this cutie," Toru whined as reaching over and petting her head. Both girls had to suppress a loud squeal as she was purring with delight. They begin to give her more attention as they got her to giggle.
"Well, she has charmed them with her cuteness," Kyoka said with a smile on her face. It was nice to see her come out of her shell even more. "At this rate, there is not going to anyone who is not enchanted by her." Kyoka could not blame them as it was not hard to see that adorable girl as a precious gem. If there was another adorable girl like her out there it would be a very dangerous combination to put them together.
In a small white another small girl with pure white hair a small horn sneezed in her room. She had been watching the news as it discussed a green-haired boy saving the day with a team. 'Maybe someday he can rescue me too.' She thought to herself. She curled up into a ball praying for an angel to save her.
Back in the viewing room, Raphtalia had been enjoying her attention when she decided it was time to have a bit of fun. "Oh, Miss Mina." She made her voice a bit shy.
"Yes, cutie?" Mina answered as she had yet to stop smiling at the little girl sitting on her lap.
Raphtalia had pretended to be nervous to Mina. “Well since you are so pretty and nice to me would date my Papa so I can have a Mama as pretty as you?” She still pretended to be innocent as she looked at Setsuna who was laughing into her hand. Kyoka and Mei stiffened at her words to Mina. The rest of the room suddenly went quiet after hearing what the small girl had asked. Mineta started muttering about him ‘being a lucky bastard.’ Until he shut up from several stern looks were sent his direction.
"You are such a bad influence Setsuna," Kyoka muttered looking at the chaos that Raphtalia had just caused. Setsuna just snickered back.
“What? Me a bad influence?” Setsuna gave her a faux hurt expression. “I think I should feel insulted.”
Izuku flushed a dark red. “R-Raphtalia.” He whispered towards her before looking at Mina to apologize. “Mina I am so sorry about that.” Izuku was not sure what Raphtalia was planning, but when he glanced over at Setsuna suppressing her laughter he knew his lovely daughter had decided to be mischievous. “I am so- uh Mina?” Izuku asked.
Mina was sitting stone stiff her face blushing a dark purple. She was not sure how to answer the young girl without hurting her feelings. She was panicking on the inside as she was impressed with Izuku as he was cute and had been chivalrous during their fight when her hero suit has damaged enough to expose her body that he gave her his jacket without a moment's hesitation and he didn't take advantage of the situation to look. "I-I-I-. " Mina attempted to talk but was unable to find the words to form a cohesive sentence.
Toru had been fanning her friend to prevent her from overheating. 'Wow, that question shorted Mina out.' Toru thought wondering the same thing, but lucky for her they could see her blush.
"Oh look they are about to get this match started," Setsuna called out and gestured for Raphtalia to come over to her. The little girl hopped down from Mina's lap and dashed over to sit on Setsuna's lap. Setsuna whispered something into the young girl's ear and snickered. Kyoka who had heard what she said elbowed her before rolling her eyes.
‘Saved by the bell.’ Mina thought to herself as she was still blushing heavily. She looked to see Izuku was still blushing as well. ‘It looks like he was interested in that idea as well.’ She thought to herself. She felt like she had butterflies in her stomach. She hoped by the time the match is over she would be back to normal.
On the Exam floor, Momo and Ochako had already finished making their plans. Ochako had removed Momo's gravity and tossed her upwards to the roof. After Momo had reached the roof Ochako return her partner's gravity to her allowing her to gently land on the roof. Momo in return created a pulley system and pulled Ochako up to the roof allowing them to void the bottom floors of any traps. After both of them had gotten into position Momo picked the lock on the roof door and created a small drone to scout ahead for them. After sweeping the stairwell they found they had only their opponents blocked the stairs up to the top floor. It wasn't long before they had tracked them down to a corner room.
“Ok. I found them.” Momo said gesturing to the screen in her hands. She watched as Ochako looked over it. “They are in the last room here and from what I can see they didn’t set up any traps on the upper floor here.” Momo had adjusted the camera to look around and after finishing her second sweep nodded in her confirmation.
"Ok so we know where they are and now we also have the element of surprise on our side," Ochako said with a grin. "Now time for the next step huh?" Ochako cracked her knuckles taking on a more feral grin as she looked at her partner. "Are you ready?"
Momo smiled back at her just as fierce. “Yes let’s go Ochako.” Momo created a few items and headed down the stairs to win their match.
The rest of the class would describe what happened to the Villain team as a massacre. Kirishima and Sero were overconfident that they had plenty of time to relax until one or both of the hero team got to them so they were more just than a little surprised when Momo kicked the door open and tossed in several matryoshka dolls into the room before ducking back out of the doorway.
A moment later they detonated into a series of flashbangs that blinded and deafened both of them in an instant. They attempted to fight back but Ochako rushed in and grabbed Kirishima arm which caused him to activate his quirk on a reflex before taking away his gravity and throwing him into Sero who felt someone bump him and cover them in his tape before falling back as his now bound partner fell on top of him. When it was all said and done both of them were out of the match. Momo and Ochako walked over and touched the device.
HERO TEAM WINS.
"Wow, that was pretty impressive," Itsuka said as they match can to an end. "They used their unique abilities to get onto the top of the building bypassing all of the traps they set and ambushed them when they thought they were safe." Itsuka made sure to remember to stay alert during their training tomorrow.
"Yes, I must agree with Itsuka. They did an amazing job." Ibara said agreeing with her classmate. She had to resist the urge to yell at Monoma who had just scoffed at their praise of the 1-A students.
"That is correct students you need to stay on guard until the match is called or you may end up like these two losing their match." Midnight said lecturing the students on remaining vigilant. Several of the classmates nodded along with her comment. She had been keeping an eye on Monoma since his attitude was similar to Bakugo.
"Wow, I have to say Momo and Ochako are quite the formidable team," Mei said as she leaned back into her seat. "I have a few new babies to improve their suits." Mei had gotten out a small notebook sketched out some new equipment to help in the field. She was oblivious to the looks students were giving her.
"Oi, you lot Mei calls all her inventions babies. So, settle down already." Kyoka told all of them as they were starting to get on her nerves. She felt a little protective of Mei after seeing how upset she was with how the fight with Bakugo and Izuku went down. 'I can't really blame her I wanted to do the same thing, but I was afraid of getting expelled.' She thought remembering her heart clench in fear as she watched the gauntlet get raised. She shook her head to clear her mind.
"Yeah, I know Momo can be scary when she comes up with a plan. I remember when we were training for our exams she would practice all sorts of scenarios and change as it went on to test her ability to create on the go." Setsuna remembered watching as her friend made incredible things and when it was over had it all donated to charities or to a local orphanage that was in need. Setsuna looked down to see Raphtalia looking in awe of Ochako and Momo winning their match. "Pretty cool huh?"
Raphtalia nodded her head quickly. "Yeah Ocha and Mo are so cool!" The girl exclaimed at watched them take down those silly boys that went against them. The more she watched the more wanted to be like her Papa and Mamas. She waited for them to walk back inside the door and rushed them as soon as they did. "That was so cool!" She exclaimed as she bounced back and forth in front of them. Ochako picked her up and hugged her before letting her float in the air from her quirk for a moment before returning her gravity to catch her in mid-air. Momo laughed as she petted the girl behind the ear causing Raphtalia to wag her wildly.
"Ah, thanks for cheering us on Raphtalia." Ochako smiled at her. She put her on her hip and walked back towards the others. She noticed Inko taking a picture of her and waved at her. Mina got up from her spot and moved over to an empty seat near Toru and Kirishima.
"You and Momo did an amazing Job during your battle. Well done. "Izuku said smile at her. "She was excited to see you guys show those villains who are in charge." His tone took on a teasing tone to Raphtalia who pouted at him before burying her face into Ochako's side to hide.
"Thank you Izuku," Ochako replied sending him a wink. She hugged Raphtalia tight and whispered in her ear. "Thanks, Raphtalia."
"Yes thank you Izuku," Momo said giving him a gentle smile. She had enjoyed the thrill of training. She made a note to find time to experiment with her quirk on its limits.
"All right everyone time once again for the next groups to draw for the next match is." Mt. Lady called out to the room. "Second to the last match of the day will be."
Team G vs Team H
Denki Kaminari & Kyoka Jiro (Heroes) Vs Fumikage Tokoyami & Tsuyu Asui (Villains)
As the Villain team lest to get set up Kyoka took a deep breath before standing up head over to meet her partner for the event when she felt someone tap her leg. She looked down to see Raphtalia had gotten off Ochako and came over to her. "What up kiddo?" She knelt to look her in the eye.
"I wanted to wish you luck Kyo," Raphtalia said in a quiet voice. "Can I give you a hug?" She reached her arms out waiting for her to move.
Kyoka smiled at her. "Sure thing." Kyoka moved in and gave her a big hug letting her ear jacks ruffle her hair. "Now going wait with the others so you can cheer me on ok?" Kyoka watched the girl smile brightly and dashed back to the group returning to Ochako's lap for the match. She sent the girl a wink before heading out to the waiting area.
Izuku took out his notebook and began to write down everything he had seen so far. He fell into his old practice of muttering and filling out the pages without really paying attention. As he analyzed the match that was about to start. He was so far into his muttering analysis that it was not until he felt someone tap his shoulder that he snapped out of it to see everyone looking at him in shock. "Oh, I did it again huh?" Izuku asked as he saw that Momo had been the one to tap his shoulder. "Uh Sorry, everyone." He sank down a little in his seat embarrassed.
"Izuku it's ok I am sure everyone is just not used to you going into your full-blown analysis mode," Momo said trying to comfort him a little as he was just analyzing his classmates like he was supposed to help them all improve.
“Hey Mido-bro after this is over can you analyze my quirk? I want to know what I can improve on after that disaster of a first match.” Kirishima said in a sad tone. He had been so sure he would win that it was hard to think about his loss.
"Oh, mine too Izuku!" Mina call out She wanted his help to improve her costume to prevent another possible wardrobe malfunction.
"Oh hey I want help too and Izuku promised to help me meet someone from the support class," Toru called out. She was not going to keep walking around in the nude anymore if she could help it. Mei turned her head in Toru's direction and walked over to stand in front of her with a business card in her hand.
"Hello, Mei Hatsume the Future CEO of Hatsume Industries." Mei handed her the card. "I am the one who designed Zuzu costume and built his visor along with Ochako, Kyoka, and Momo's." She stood tall with pride. "How can I be of service to you?"
Izuku smiled at her working to expand her client base a bit more with new people. "Toru this was who I was going to introduce you to help you with the suit and equipment needs. You can trust her." Izuku watched as Mei asked to switch seats with Mina to talk in-depth with Toru about her needs for her hero suit. This meant Mina moved to sit next to Izuku again.
“Zuzu huh?” Mina teased him about his nickname.
Izuku laughed nervously. “I have known Mei for almost a year and she has been calling me that since we became friends.” Izuku thought back to how lonely he was back before he met everyone getting a sad smile on his face. “She was my first friend in over 10 years since I was told I-.” He couldn’t find his sentence. He was not sure how to feel right at that moment.
Before he could react he was pulled face-first into Mina's chest as she was petting his head. "Oh, I am so sorry Bakugo made you go through that Izuku. " She rubbed her cheek against the top of his head as struggled to get free. "Being mean to you is like being mean to a cute bunny it is inexcusable." After her small freeze-up earlier she decided that she was going to tease him a bit until he blushed. She was so oblivious to the world that she was receiving a glare from Mei, Momo, Setsuna, and Ochako. Eventually, Mina felt someone tap the top of her head. She looked to see a floating severed hand in the air.
"Oi Pinky. Mind not suffocating our friends there in your boobs." Setsuna asked trying to restrain the urge to slap her. She recalled her hand back to reconnect it before flexing her hand. 'IF anyone is going to shove Izu's face into their chest it's gonna be me!' she thought to herself almost wanting to yank him up from Mina and claim him.
"Oh right." She released Izuku who was blushing red. "Sorry got carried away Izuku." She gave him a teasing smile as she had achieved her goal. She got comfortable in her seat and cuddled upon his arm. "Oh look there about to start." She made sure no one could make her move for a bit. 'This is my way to thank him for being a nice guy and saving me and Toru from Bakugo.' She thought happily thinking about what his daughter words. . "Well since you are so pretty and nice to me would date my Papa so I can have a Mama as pretty as you?" She tried not to flush at those words.
“Hero Team you may begin your operations.” Mt. Lady called out to the teams over the speakers. As she clicked the screen to show both teams.
Kyoka walked over to the building and inserted one of her jacks into the building cracking the concrete exterior and started to listen in on them. She focused her hearing to listen for the footsteps of their opponents. After a few more moments of listening she had a rough location of both of them. "Ok sounds like one of them is on the third floor patrolling and one is on the fourth floor in one of the rooms. When we get inside I may be able to track them better." She looked over at her partner that was looking a bit impressed.
"That is pretty handy there," Kaminari said giving her a thumbs up. "I say we move in and let you check each floor to see if you can hear them." He headed to the front entrance and started to move carefully inside the building. The next several minutes were the most stressful of their lives. The building was eerily silent. Several of the lights were smashed leaving many corners and hallways dark. Every so often Kyoka would insert her jack into the wall and listen for any footsteps. Eventually, Kyoko realized they were purposing moving around to confuse them.
“They keep moving around. They must know how I am tracking them.” Kyoka said having her jacks sweeping back and forth and activating her visor to scan for anyone. “We need to change it up.”
Kaminari frowned at this. "You're right let's sweep each floor and move up. We need to find the bomb and we know both of them may be together guarding it like the other classes." He gave her a cheeky grin.
The sound of lights shattering caught their attention as Fumikage started to walk towards them "I see I found the trespassers in my domain." he had a serious tone in his voice. "Surrender and you may get to walk away Heroes." He flipped a part of his cape up to reveal a gray men's Kimono shirt and white Hakama pants. On his belt was a black Katana and his hand resting on it.
"Oh shit," Kaminari said as he was readied his attacks by charging electricity between his hands. "Jirou searched the next floor I'll handle him." He sent a wave of electricity toward Fumikage, but Dark Shadow pulled him to safety away from the attack and disappeared into a dark room. "Go." He said before rushing after his opponent.
"Kaminari Wait!" Kyoka called out but was ignored as her partner entered the room. Sounds of fighting filled the room. She ran up the next flight listening to the fight below. Before she reached the next floor a voice called out over the speakers.
“Kaminari had been eliminated from the exercise.”
"Damn," Kyoka muttered as she was listening for Asui could be hiding with the bomb. She carefully swept the rooms and have her visor on scan mode. She heard something coming from behind her so Kyoka rolled out of the way and came up to find Asui sticking to the wall like the frog she was looking at her. "You almost had me Asui," Kyoka said reading her jacks to attack.
"Just call me Tsu Kero," Tsu said to her as she jumped forward aiming a power kick to Kyoka's chest, but Kyoka was nimble enough to evade her attack and tried to grab her legs with her Ear jacks. Tsu showed her flexibility as she moved out of the way by bending herself in an almost unnatural way and landed on the other wall to jump back towards her. The next several minutes were basic the two of them dodge each other. When Tsu tried to use her tongue to capture Kyoka who would, in turn, use her jacks to knock it off course.
As Kyoka was dodging another attack from Tsu she felt something grab her from the side. She turned her head to see a large shadowy hand wrapping around her pinning her arms to her side. "I forgot about your partner Tsu," Kyoka said knowing it was two against one in their favor. She struggled to get free but realized they had won fair and square. "I guess you guys win." Her tone was sad at losing her first match.
Villains Team Wins!
"They put up a good fight, but after Kaminari went off on his own to handle Fumikage they lost the advantage and the match," Kirishima said after watching the match come to an end. "Jirou put up one heck of a fight against Asui both of them are really good." Kirishima was getting amped up. "Also now I want to spar against Fumikage."
This had turned out to be an exciting matchup as the second ended in one large attack from Todoroki and the third match had ended rather quickly when Momo and Ochako had ambushed and took down both of their opponents without much of a fight.
"They did a great job," Ryukyu commented on the match. "I think I may send an internship request to the Tsuyu girl. She might be able to keep up with Nejire in training." She had not come today expecting to find anyone would catch her eye. The girl was quick and agile in her movements.
"I thought about sending one to Ochako. She did a great job today, but her CQC needs some improvement." Miruko had been impressed with her during the villain fight and after watching her fight today wanted to stake her claim. She had never thought she would want an Intern, but after being around Izuku this past year she wanted to pass on her skills to someone and her choice was Ochako.
"She did a great job," Izuku said he felt bad that she had lost the match, but she showed that she was made of sterner stuff in her fight against Asui. "Raphtalia when she comes back in here can you give her a hug please?" Izuku knew he could not hug in front of everyone without there being a large reaction from it. So he would have the next best thing to hug her.
"Ok, Papa," Raphtalia replied as started to watch the door waiting for her to enter. As soon as Kyoka walked in the door she sprang forward and latched onto Kyoka's legs. "Kyo needs a hug!" she chirped happily. Most of the people in the room thought it was very adorable of the young girl to run up and hug Kyoka.
Kyoko squatted down and picked the girl up holding her close to her." Thank you I needed that kiddo." Kyoka's smile returned as Raphtalia beamed at her. "Now want to come to cuddle with me for a bit?" She hadn't wanted to sit alone after her loss.
“Sure!” Raphtalia replied with a smile. She latched onto Kyoka as she returned to her seat hold the girl on her lap. She wondered if they could get her to sit in class with them as their Emotional Support Tanuki.
“All right everyone it is time for the last pair of groups to drawn for the next match is.” Midnight called out.
Team A vs Team F
Yuga Aoyama & Melissa Shield (Heroes) Vs Hitoshi Shinso & Koji Koda (Villains)
The last match-up of the day had everyone focusing on the screen. The villains had gotten their chance to set up as they waited and waited for the match to start. Needless to say, this match was weird. From the very beginning. From what they could tell Aoyama spend more time talking about his cape than actually trying to plan for the match with his partner. When the match started he ran off leaving Melissa behind.
“Wait!” Melissa called out before running behind him. Melissa swore to herself as she flicked her wrist and her shield and spear expanded to their normal sizes. She had been listening for her partner and had turned the corner in time to see Shinso say something to her partner and watched as he stood still long enough for Shinso to wrap the capture ribbon around his arm.
Yuga Aoyama has been eliminated!
Melissa shifted her spear to her opposite hand and drew his fist back. She channeled her quirk “Golden Fleece” as yellow electricity arced around her as regulated the power. “5% Athens Smash!” She sent a damaging attack towards her opponent. Shinso saw the massive attack coming towards him and dived out of the way barely evading her attack as it tore up the hallway
"Drat, I missed," Melissa said through her helmet. She readied her spear as she watched Shinso make a run for the stairs. Her arm arced with lightning again as she threw her spear. “Athena’s Spear!” She looked at her HUD and threw it on a perfect curve. It missed him on purpose slamming in the wall in front of him as he went to turn getting close lined by her spear. Melissa dashed towards him using One for All.
Hitoshi coughed as he rolled to his side. "Why do I have to fight her instead of anyone else?" He had been able to dodge her attack initial attack thanks to his training, but he was in no shape to take her head-on. He rolled onto his feet and made a break for the stairs. He made it to the stairwell when he felt another attack just miss him. He moved just inside the door and waited for her to rush in.
Melissa was cautiously moving towards the stairwell. She had not seen him go up yet. She suspected that he was waiting for her to enter. Gran Torino would do something similar to her during her training. She calculated the best spot for him to try and ambush her. She charged up again and punched towards the wall “2% Athens Smash!” She send her attack towards the wall and blasted through it.
Hitoshi dove for the ground when he heard her call out another attack. The wall he was just standing next to exploded out creating a person-sized hole. He watched her step through and move towards him. He sent his capture scarf at her leg to trip her up. Her response was to slam in her shield into the ground almost 3 inches pinning his scarf to the ground. 'Oh, this is bad.' Hitoshi thought as he removed his scarf and tried to think of his next move. He hated to do it, but he needed her to react to him for his quirk to take effect. "I know your last name is Shield. Tell me how much did Daddy have to pay to let you come and play hero?" He hated to do that, but she had been silent the entire time. "What Daddy's girl can't speak for herself without his permission?"
Melissa immediately tensed and clicked a button to release her shield from her arm and stood to her full height. She had worked hard for months to prepare her for this school. Hours of training, studying, exercise to reach this point. She cracked her neck from the side to side and cracked her knuckles. "Big Mistake," Melissa said through her speaker.
"Please standstill until I can tie this capture tape around your wrists," Hitoshi said thinking it had taken effect and ended the match.
Melissa's body became electrified again. "Not going to happen jerk." She replied taking a step towards him. She charged up to 5 % and was ready to deal out some punishment. She dropped into her boxing stance.
"Oh shit," Hitoshi said before he started to take a step back. "Any chance at some mercy if I apologize?" He knew it was a gamble to upsetting her and he lost big time. She could punch holes in concrete and now she had a target for her anger. Him
"All out," Melissa replied shortly sending another punch toward him. When Hitoshi dodge her again she changed it up and charged up a kick "5% Spartan Kick!" She watched as another hole formed in the wall.
Back in the viewing room, the room felt like Hitoshi had just royally screwed up. Izuku had flinched at his choice of words towards Melissa and her father. "I hope she is not too rough on him," Izuku said watching him dodge a blow that exploded the wall behind him. "I almost feel kind of bad for him."
"Well going after someone's parent and telling her she got here because of their money was in bad taste. I hope he survives." Setsuna said as he was forced to dodge another of Melissa's attacks that blew another hole in the wall.
"I hope that building can take the abuse she is dishing out right now," Ochako said as another hole had exploded out from her attacks. "I think that building will start to get a bit unstable soon." Ochako had listened to her parents talk about building stability most of her life. She knew that enough damage and the building would not be safe for them.
Midnight had been watching the building at it was already in rough shape from the previous matches. She hated to do so, but it was becoming a possible safety hazard for the students. She reached over and turned on the speaker.
The Match is a Draw! Due to the building becoming a safety concern for the participants this match is Canceled at this time. All students report back to the viewing room.
Melissa stopped mid-swing like she had been trained to do by Gran Torino. She relaxed her fighting stance and went to get her shield and spear. She didn't look back to see the look of relief on her opponent's face as she walked away. She was upset at herself for letting his meaningless insults get her so upset like that and cause her to lash out in anger. She needed to go clear her head a bit before trying to talk with him. She would go talk with her uncle and maybe that would make her feel better.
Hitoshi slid down to sit on the floor as relief flooded his body. He was sure she was still furious at him for what he said. He would let her cool off before going anywhere near her to apologize. He looked at the holes in the surrounding walls and decided to maybe ask someone to come with him like Izuku to help prevent a possible trip to the hospital. “Oh god women are scary when they are angry.” He said thanking every god that he knew that the match was stopped. He just knew his girlfriend was going to find this whole situation absolutely hilarious and definitely would want to meet her.
"Well, I have to say all of these matches were pretty good for your first Heroics class. Now Class 1-A hit the showers and get your suits turned into the Support Department to be clean for the next class. Class 1-B you lot will be here tomorrow for your Battle Training so be prepared for that." Midnight informed them as she dismissed that class. "Depending on how things go tomorrow 1-A may be sitting in to watch like 1-B did today."
"I agree with Miss Midnight, You all did very well today, and know that we expect great things from all of you," Nezu said standing up and heading to the door to take care of the problem student known as Katsuki Bakugo. As he left the room his phone rang and Nezu frown when he saw it was from the Chairman.
Izuku waved to his family as he headed to the locker room. Inko held Raphtalia's hand as they headed back to the Nurses office. His sisters had to head out as well to get back on patrol and gave him a quick hug before heading out to their agencies. The girls broke off and headed to the girl's locker room as Mei gave him a quick hug and headed back to her workstation. As he headed for the locker room he was met up with Shinso, Kaminari, Fumikage, and Kirishima and got to chat with them about the different matches and what they wanted to train with him later on. They reached the locker room still chatting and to stop to get showered and changed.
Izuku had just got of the shower was getting dressed in front of his locker when he had the unfortunate luck to be near Mineta’s locker out of everyone one else in the class. Izuku had heard so of his comments when sitting in the room and was not impressed with him.
“Midoriya you know most of those hot chicks that were sitting next to you right? So I was wondering if you can help a fellow classmate out with getting their numbers for me.” Mineta gave his a depraved smile.
"Geez Mineta you really need to back that off on that stuff or else you going to get massacred by the female population in general," Kaminari said with an annoyed tone. He had known Mineta for years since their parents were friends and business acquaintances. He had watched as Mineta harassed every girl he found pretty and it forced his parents to spend money to keep him from getting expelled from school.
"No," Izuku replied stiffly. Izuku finished getting dressed and was putting his suit back into his case to take it back to Mei. Izuku had pretty much tuned his out after telling him no. Izuku had to count down a few times to not slug him in the face.
"That is unmanly Minoru," Kirishima called out as he was getting dressed. He was sending him an annoyed look his way especially after the comment he made when Mina top got destroyed in her fight. "You need to knock off that perverted stuff."
"Come on guys what about the bro code?" Mineta tried again to get Izuku to hook him up with a hot girl and to get them on his side.
Izuku gave him a cold look that made Mineta take a step back. "I said No. I am not your friend, amigo, and bro, whatever you want to call me. I would not help you if you were the last person in the world." Izuku grabbed his case and walked out of the locker room before he had to deal with Mineta anymore.
"Hey Minoru," Hitoshi called out to him.
“Yea-.” Mineta answered before his eyes glazed over.
"Shut up and get dressed," Hitoshi said as he was about to finish getting dressed. He hoped his girlfriend never met him or else he may not survive the encounter if he acted like his usual self. He was pretty sure she would drop him with one stab from her knife.
Mineta followed Hitoshi’s orders and didn’t make a peep as he got dressed and left the locker room.
His mood brightened immediately when he saw Kyoka waiting for him outside the Girl's locker room. Izuku gestured towards the support hall whispering Mineta's name before gesturing to the boy's locker room. Kyoka grabbed her case and walked in that direction and Izuku followed behind. After walking for a few minutes he asked. "Is the little pervert following us?" Izuku asked wanting to make sure that he was alone with her.
"Nope just us," Kyoka said lowering her ear jack slightly. "I appreciate you telling that pervert off." She gestured to her jacks. "I have to say if he doesn't knock it off quick I don't think he will live to see the end of the month." Izuku nodded in agreement not wanting to think any more about the prick's disgusting look on his face talking about females from both classes.
"I may do it for them if he keeps it up," Izuku muttered in annoyance at the perverted grape.
She moved closer to him brushing against his shoulder before pulling him to an empty classroom that was nearby. After closing the door and setting her case on the floor she spun around grabbing his face and pulling him into a passionate kiss.
Izuku set his case down without breaking the kiss before putting his hand on her hips pulling her closer. After a having short, intense make-out session had forced Izuku to break the kiss to catch his breath. "Well not that I am complaining, but what brought this on beautiful?" He watched her blush at being called beautiful.
Kyoka smirked at him. "What can I say you looked really hot when you put that blonde bastard in his place and I may have been a bit scared earlier." She resumed their kissing for a while and when they broke apart they decided to make sure to get their gear back before they were missed by anyone. After making sure the hallway was clear they resumed walking toward the Support Hallway. Izuku spoke again.
"Hey, Kyoka. Do you have any plans for Sunday?" He asked a bit nervous regardless of the face she was his girlfriend now.
“No plans that I can think of. Are you asking me out on a date?” Kyoka asked giving him a teasing smile. Her heart was beating fast at thought of him asking her for an actual date first.
Izuku smiled back at her. "Well, sort of. I have an event on Sunday with Rumi and Deep Dope will be there and I promised to tell you when they gave me more passes." Izuku watched her eyes light up with excitement. "I take it that you want them?"
Kyoko jumped with excitement. "Oh Hell yes! Izuku you are awesome!" She exclaimed a bit louder than she had intended, but that was her favorite band of all time he was talking about. "When?"
"It starts at 10 am and runs until 1 pm. I have to be there a bit early to help with the setup, but afterward, I am free for the afternoon for you to choose where we go." Izuku explained as he was happy to have her going to be there for him. He wanted to make the afternoon special for her since it would be his first official date with her.
"Awesome I will have my Mom drop me off early so we can ride over there together." Kyoka's smile was bright at getting to spend time with him and getting to see her favorite band as the best possible day ever. "Before I forget you need to take some time to see the other girls they were really worried about you." Kyoka was a bit selfish at times, but she knew how to share.
"I will Thank you," Izuku said as they rounded the corner to the support lab. Kyoka follow Izuku into the support lab and found that Mei was working at her desk. He dropped off the case and check on her. "Mei are you doing ok."
Mei turned and smiled. “Yes. I am doing much better thank you.” She took both of the cases and placed them in her storage locker before locking it. “I am ready to head home what about you guys?” Mei was emotionally exhausted and wanted to go get away from it all for a bit.
Izuku noted something was off with Mei if she was voluntarily leaving the support lab. “Hey how about we get the other and head to the command center and relax a bit before we all head home?” Izuku could tell she was still upset and He wanted to check on his other girlfriends as well.
"That sounds good to me Green bean," Kyoka replied also picking up that something was off with their pink-haired friend. During their walk back to meet the others, Mei had been quiet adding little to the conversation. After meeting up with the others girls they too noticed something was wrong with their inventor. After looking around to see if anyone was nearby they teleported to the command center.
"Mei, what's wrong?" Ochako asked gently placing a hand on her shoulder.
"You know we care about you and want to help you if something is bothering you," Setsuna said gently
Mei seemed to be wrestling with something for a few moments before speaking. "When I saw Bakugo raise his gauntlet I flashed back to my worst childhood memory." Mei moved over to a chair in the living area. The others follow suit. "You see my father was an inventor and was one of the best, but he was overlooked at every turn for one reason. He was born quirkless like Zuzu." Mei kept her focus on the table. "My mother has eyes similar to mine, but not as powerful. She works as a support item researcher and it was how she met my dad." Mei had a sad smile on her face. "I grew up wanting to be just like him. He had been working on something for months and would still find time to teach me how to build things." Mei started to get emotional as she told the story. Izuku moved closed and held her close for support. "One day he finished building whatever it was my father went to go patent it. That was the night the police came and told us my Father had been murdered."
The others girls gasped at this covering their mouths at the horror. Izuku held her tighter and kissed her forehead. "I am so sorry Mei." He whispered in her ear. The other girls moved close to comfort her as well.
"They said it was a robbery gone wrong, but they never found my father's designs he had with him when he left that day." Mei had managed to get control of her voice enough to finish her story. "So when I saw Bakugo about to attack you after he lost I just flashed back to that day and I just wanted him to hurt." After she finished she cried even harder. They all just made sure to hold her and kept telling her it was ok until she was able to stop crying.
"Mei I am not angry at you for what happened." Izuku adjusted himself so he could look Mei in the eyes. "I am so sorry that you felt this way after what happened." He knew she had always avoided the subject of her dad by deflecting the question or ignoring it to work on an invention. He gently moved her hand and placed it over his heart. "You feel this?" He asked her. When she nodded he smiled at her. "I will always be there for you and the other girls until my heart stops beating." He gave her a gently quick kiss. "You are stuck with me for a very long time."
"We are here for you Mei," Ochako said smiling at the girl. "I kind of wish I had let you get a shot in though."
"Mei we adore you and to be honest I had thought about doing the same to Bakugo, but you beat me to it," Momo said wanting to be honest with the girl.
“Really Momo? And you didn’t tell me?” Setsuna chimed in with a laugh. “I think we all were thinking about breaking his legs.”
"Nah I would have gone for the hands," Kyoka said in a calm voice. "Hit him where it really hurts. His stupid quirk."
"Thank you, guys," Mei said in a small tone but had a smile on her face. "Thank you for doing this with me."
Ochako stood up and dusted off her shirt and pant legs. “Now we need to change the mood here.” She aid moving closer to Izuku. “Kyoka told us how you made it up to her for scaring her. Now it’s our turn for a little attention." Ochako got a gleam in her eyes and pulled him close. For the next little bit, each of the girls got their make-out session with him. Mei got a bit longer turn since she needed it. For the group, they were content with each other. After having to keep it all secret all day they could finally show their affection.
Bakugo was groggy when he woke up. He was confused about where he was and didn't remember getting where ever here was. As he started to become more coherent he realized it was a nurse's office. He then remembered that he had lost his match with Deku! Bakugo growled and then immediately stopped. Normally when he got bad his quirk went off and when he looked down he noticed that he was cuffed with a special style that is used by Heroes and Law Enforcement to suppress Quirks. "What the Fuck is this?!" He growled out trying to get his hands free from the cuffs but was unable to break free.
“Don’t bother. Those cuffed would even give All Might a hard time trying to get out of them.” A voice came from beside him.
Bakugo looked over to see his Homeroom teacher sitting in a chair giving him an angry look. “Let me out of these right now!” Bakugo demanded with a growl before trying to break free once again.
"No. I have orders from the Principal that watched how your match ended in the near-lethal assault of the opposing team that you unleashed your attack on them and ignoring instructions to stand down when the match was over." Shouta's tone grew harsh as he stood up to look down upon him. "If it had not been for Midoriya's quick actions there could have resulted in 3 critically injured students."
"They would have been fine if they dodged it." Bakugo countered. He did not like how he was being treated like he was some wannabe villain. He was the top student in his middle school and here they were treating him like he was just like any one of these pathetic extras.
“Oh really?” Shouta asked sarcastically. “That is your excuse for it?” He activated his quirk making his eyes glow red. “You lost your first training match and your response was to react like a child throwing a tantrum and unleash a massive explosion towards the opposing team after you had already lost?” Shouta glare hardened to a hard edge.
Bakugo didn't have a response for that so he just seethed in silence. He was supposed to be the next coming rising star from UA. He was supposed the next All Might as a rising star from the moment he stepped into UA to the day he made his heroic debut. He was destined to be the next #1 Hero. At every turn there he was standing in his way. Deku had been the one to save him from the Slime Villain. Deku had been the one to take the #1 Spot at the Entrance Exams. Deku was the personal student of the Principal. Lastly, Deku had beaten him in their match. He was beaten by Deku someone who had no quirk all his life.
"Good, you do know how to be quiet. So this is what is going to happen. Effective immediately you are suspended from UA." Shouta watched as his words hit Bakugo where they hurt the most, right in his pride causing him to have a completely shocked look on his face. "I would have expelled you on the spot, but the Board has decided that you will have a formal Disciplinary Hearing to decide what your fate will be for your remaining time here at UA after today's stunt." Shouta had been just about finished with the expulsion paperwork when Nezu contacted him about the board was stepping in on one of their chosen students. "You will be here at 7:30 AM outside the Principals' office and we will start shortly after that. I suggest being on your best behavior as your future is in the balance." Shouta walked over and removed his cuffs. "Get changed and get out."
Bakugo bit his tongue to keep from swearing and headed for the locker room. The entire time he just fumed and raged in his mind while he got changed and went home.
Nezu let out a tired sigh at his desk. Chairman Monoma was starting to get on his last nerve and this was just adding to his frustration with the board in general. The Chairman was fighting to keep Katsuki Bakugo from being expelled and it would be an annoyance to him having to deal with their excuses for his actions. He knew what they were going to try and see how far they would go to keep one of the chairman's personal candidates in the school. Nezu prepared for his fight with them tomorrow. He had sent Izuku a message to stay with call 1-B during his school day tomorrow. Nezu went to this computer and pulled the files he needed. They would learn not to mess with him or his student.
When a knock came at his door Nezu hit the button and opened it to find All Might standing outside his door.
"Ah, Toshinori. What do I owe the pleasure for your visit today?" Nezu asked as he tapped the button to close the door behind him. Nezu had a good idea of what he wanted.
Toshinori let out a sigh shrinking down to her regular form. He was no longer looking like a skeleton as he had been for the last 5 years. After his surgery, therapy, and diet he was about the same weight and build when he graduated from UA. He still had to buff up for his hero work, but he no longer coughed up blood when he shrank down. His face was more rounded and his eyes were no longer sunken. He looked good for his age. "I am sorry to bother you, sir," Toshinori said moving towards the chair in front of the desk. "I would like your help with something."
“What would that be?” Nezu asked giving the man his full attention.
Toshinori seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking. "I would like your help in arranging a meeting between Izuku and Inko Midoriya and Myself if it is possible." He let out a deep sigh. "I have been trying to find the courage to apologize to him for my words from so long ago, but I have been a coward finding excuses to push it off." He remembered the hurt look on his face when he arrived in the classroom today. "Since that day I have done my best to be a better hero and improve myself by reaching out to Quirkless orphanages to volunteer some time and making more comments about their importance to our society. I need to make amends to Izuku sir." Toshinori bowed his head.
Nezu sat there in silence as he thought about if he should help him with the problem. After he finished thinking it over he made his decision. "I will set it up for you to speak with them tomorrow afternoon." Nezu made a note to discuss this with Izuku after he had dealt with Bakugo Disciplinary hearing tomorrow. Nezu could see that Toshinori was truly trying to make amends. When he came here months ago asking to teach at UA it had been a long discussion about his Quirk One for All, his time limit, and his successor coming to this school.
"Thank you, sir," Toshinori said rising to leave his office. "Wish me luck." He buffed back up before stepping out of the office.
Nezu sat back in his chair after watching him leave. "You are going to need it, my friend." Nezu knew his student well and knew how Inko was going to react.
Mei finally made it home after telling her emotional story to her friends and her make-out session with her boyfriend that lifted her spirits. When she came into her home she noticed her mother had fallen asleep on the couch again and Mei moved and covered her with a blanket. Mei knew her mother worked hard and was doing everything she could to keep a roof over her head. Mei kissed her Mom's forehead and went to eat some leftovers for dinner. After cleaning up the dishes and doing a few chores around the house she took a much-needed shower. She was just about to call it a night when she went to sit at her desk and opened up a hidden compartment she had built into it. Mei reached in taking something out before she looked at the Morpher sitting in the palm of her hand. "Am I truly worthy to use this?" she wondered before putting it on her nightstand as she drifted off to sleep.

Chapter Text
Nezu waited patiently as the board members were still entering the room before the hearing was supposed to begin. Shouta sat next to Nezu trying not to sigh out loud as he was not wanting to be here to deal with these sycophants. He looked over to see Bakugo sitting in his uniform looking angry as he normally did. His mother was sitting beside him hissing something into his ear and trying to get him to smooth out his uniform. Shouta was sure she was telling him to keep his mouth shut.
The other members were making small talk with one another. It was almost time to start when the Chairman walked into the room. Chairman Neigo was almost a spitting image of his younger brother with the exception he was a bit more on the heavy side. Nezu could see that the family probably had the same arrogant smirk. As soon as he entered the room the other members swarmed to greet and fawn over him.
Nezu had to fight the urge not to be disgusted at the sight in from of him. All of them were fawning of the fact to Chairman had done them all a favor in the past and he held it over them for their votes. Nezu had been slowly investigating the Monoma family with the help of DECA and was not surprised to see that the family had been in positions of power for nearly 200 years and it was always a Patriarchal family. Each male head of the family always had a position of influence in the government and the other members of the family would spread out into other positions to help keep them in power with influence and information.
Nezu noted that the family was nearly ruined 5 years ago from a corruption scandal involving one of their Uncles that resulted in the family losing nearly all of its fortune and most of the family was jailed as a result of that investigation. It had only been in the last 3 years or so they had built their power back up to allow for Neigo to become Chairman of the UA Board and his brother was now a middle-rank member of HPSC as an investigator that had been slowly crawling up the ranks. The family had withered over the years had brought down family members down to Neito was now the next in line as the future head of the Monoma family.
The board members all took their seats when it was time for the hearing to begin. Chairman Monoma had cleared his throat as he was got comfortable. “Thank you all for coming today as we are here for the Disciplinary Hearing for Katsuki Bakugo from his actions during his first Heroics Class. According to reports filed by several instructors during this class Bakugo used excessive force after his match ended and the opposing team had been declared the winner.” Chairman Monoma read off the case against Bakugo “The report as says he refused several orders to stand down the instructors.” The chairman set the file down. “Now let us get started."
Izuku gave his daughter one last hug before he headed off to meet with the girls. He made his way to their normal meeting spot with the girls. They found another empty room to get their morning kisses and asked if he had heard anything about Bakugo. When he told them no they hoped they would hear something soon. When it started getting close for class to start they had to get going. Mei headed for her workbench promising to have his suit cleaned before the afternoon class started. Momo, Ochako, and Kyoka kissed him and headed for their classroom. Setsuna locked arms with him to escort him to Class 1-B for the day.
Unbeknown to the little group Toru had come to school early and decided to walk around to explore the school a bit when she saw Izuku head towards a classroom with some of their classmates. She stayed back a little bit to avoid Kyoka super hearing. After they entered the room she snuck over to listen to the door out of curiosity. She heard what they were doing. When she heard them coming out of the room darted back behind a nearby corner. She poked her head to watch them leave the room (Perk of being invisible). "Oh, I so have to tell Mina about this.” She whispered with excitement. She darted off in a different direction sending a message to find out where her friend was at.
Izuku was getting a little nervous about going to 1-B. He knew Setsuna and had gotten to meet a few of them the day before, but this would be the first time in class with them. Setsuna patted his arm "I got your back Izuku" She smiled at him. "The class is pretty easy going."
"Thank you, Setsuna." Izuku smiled back. "Oh, before I forget Raphtalia wanted me to give you this.” Izuku reached into his back and pulled out a piece of paper. When he showed it to it her it was a roughly drawn picture of her and Raphtalia with Mama Suna written next to her.
Setsuna got a bit emotional at this gesture from her. She was already close to the young girl after their time together and now she wanted to go down to the Nurses office and hug that girl with everything she had. “When we get a chance, I want to go hug her as a thank you.”
"Mom is expecting you to stop by when you get a chance to do just that," Izuku said glad to see she was enjoying her gift. "Now let's get to class Mama Suna." He teased her watching as she blushed a bit. She retaliated by elbowing her boyfriend in the ribs.
Setsuna opened the door and gestured for him to walk in. As Izuku walked inside the room went silent as they turned to look at him. “Uh hey everyone. I’ll be with your class for the day.” He waited for the class to say or do anything. It was in a sudden rush that several of them came over to talk with him.
"Hey man I'm Tetsutetsu and I have to say what you did during your battle trial yesterday was truly manly!" He held out a fist for him. Izuku completed the fist bump and Tetsutetsu smiled big at him.
“Are you related to Kirishima by any chance?” Izuku asked out of curiosity. “You guys have very similar Quirks.” Izuku resisted the urge to grab his notebook and start asking him questions. This caused a bit of snickering from his classmates, but Tetsutetsu just rolled his eyes at the question.
"It's just a coincidence and no we are not related to each other," Tetsutetsu replied shaking his head as he looked at a blonde girl beside him with large horns snickering at him. "Don't even start Pony."
Pony started to laugh at him "Not fault you manly." She said in broken Japanese. “I wish I could talk in English it would make this so much easier.” The girls said in perfect English as she was still struggling to speak the language of her peers.
“Oh, would it be helpful for you if I spoke English for you?" Izuku asked in English since he figured Pony would be having hard a hard time trying to keep up with the group conversation.
This had an immediate reaction from Pony. She tensed for a moment before she moved closer to look him straight in the eye. “You can understand and speak English?” Pony words were slow and cautious.
Izuku gave her a very confused look before responding. “Yes.” Izuku had been taking lessons from Nezu and had been able to pick it up rather quickly.
Before anyone could react, she rushed forward and hugged him tightly causing Izuku to gasp for air as she was stronger than she looked. “THANK YOU I have been dying for someone besides my cousin to talk to me in English.” She spun him back and forth like he was a ragdoll.
Several students had to pry him loose from her strong grip and Izuku gasped for air. "No problem Pony," Izuku said to her trying to massage his ribs.
“Not even here 5 minutes and nearly get hugged to death by one of your new classmates.” Setsuna teased him after she made sure he was ok. “Careful Pony or you may crack a rib of your new friend with your strength.”
Pony looked at Setsuna just as excited. “You speak English too?” She grew more excited by the minute. And began talking with Setsuna with innocent excitement.
Izuku took the time to catch his breath and stretched. “She is much stronger than she looks.” He muttered in surprise as the other class members chuckled a bit.
"Well she is learning Japanese quickly, but she still struggles from time to time," Tetsutetsu explained to him as he gently patted his back. "Thank you for your kindness just now.” Izuku waved it off with a smile.
Izuku got to meet several other students that came to Raphtalia's defense. Itsuka and Ibara introduced themselves after welcoming him to Class 1-B. He met his other classmates with the exception of Monoma who sat in the back of the room just glaring at Izuku with contempt and disgust. Eventually everyone just ignored him since he was not a pleasant person to be around. Soon it was time for class to start with Vlad King coming to get the day started. The morning classes went fast and before Izuku knew it was the last class before lunch when he was contacted by Nezu to come to his office. He waved at his classmates and Setsuna before heading to see his mentor.
As he reached the office the door opened automatically and Nezu waved him into the office. “I hope your morning has been going well today?”
Izuku gave him a nod. “Yes, it had been very pleasant with 1-B with the exception from Monoma, but that is to be expected." Izuku had watched as the boy went out of his way to glare at him and had even tried to shoulder bump him at one point, but had been blocked by Itsuka. "I take it this is about Bakugo?"
Nezu smiled at his young protégé. “Yes, the meeting started on time and went for about 2 hours this morning." Nezu slid a file towards Izuku. "Chairman Monoma was his usual self. He can to Young Bakugo defense stating that it was a 'training accident'." Nezu's voice was full of disdain. "Both Shouta and I disagreed with that statement and challenged him trying to get the board to take this seriously."
Izuku let out a deep sigh. “So, what was his punishment that the board decided to give him for this 'training accident' that almost resulted in serious injuries for 3 students?" Izuku knew that this would happen since Bakugo had been selected by the board personally. It reminded him of his middle school days as the teachers and staff overlooked her abusive behavior toward him since he was 'destined to be a great hero.'
Nezu's frown deepened. "Katsuki Bakugo had been suspended for one week before he will be allowed to return to class and must now meet with Hound Dog twice a week for Anger Management classes for the remainder of the semester."
Izuku blinked in surprise at what the Board called punishment. “That is, it? A week suspension and Anger Management class that he should have already been taking before coming to UA?" Izuku looked incredulous at this revelation. "Had I not morphed and deflected his attack Mina, Toru and I could have been seriously injured and they are practically giving him a slap on the wrist?" Izuku asked trying not to lose his temper at the actions of the chairman.
Nezu nodded at Izuku with a serious expression. "Shouta and I made that very argument as well. It seems the Chairman to be precise thinks it would be too detrimental to Bakugo's future hero career to suspend him any longer than a week." Nezu had never been so angry at the board at their blatant disregard for the safety of the other students. He talked with DECA to increase her digging into the Chairman's dirty dealings. He was waiting for it to bear fruit he needed to put that bastard behind bars.
"That was not the only thing is there?" Izuku asked knowing that this was not everything that happened during the meeting.
“No, it was not," Nezu said leaning back in his chair.
During the Disciplinary Hearing
“I am sorry, but could you repeat that?” Shouta asked with anger in his voice.
Chairman Monoma smirked at the question before leaning forward on the desk. "I said if anyone should be suspended longer than a week or expelled for this whole incident it would be Izuku Midoriya for his overreaction towards Katsuki Bakugo.”
Shouta tightened his fists hard enough it nearly drew blood. "How is that possible? I was there the entire time watching that match. He saved his fellow teammates from that explosion and when Bakugo who had been told to stand down multiple times became hostile he stopped him until All Might and I could take over.” Shouta was so close to knocking that smug bastard out of his chair. The hearing so far had been a joke a slap on the wrist and counseling for his temper tantrum.
“Be that as it may. Midoriya used dangerous equipment that could have caused serious harm to Bakugo as well. Since he has refused to hand it over to HPSC official for testing we can only assume that he could have killed Bakugo with that kind of power.” Chairman Neigo smiled cruelly at Shouta and Nezu.
Nezu smiled back at the chairman. "You mean he refused to hand it over to your brother." Nezu watched the smile disappear from Neigo face. "As Izuku and I explained to Nero the other day Izuku has not broken any rules of UA or the HPSC that would result in having his equipment being confiscated or examined." Nezu watched as the chairman's face became a sneer. "I know you used that very excuse to exclude him from Class 1-A and Class 1-B after he scored the top spot in the Exams history to put your nephew into the Hero Course."
The room became very tense as Nezu and the Chairman started to glare at each other to see who would blink first. Shouta watched as the other members of the board were starting to get very uncomfortable at the tension building in the room. No one was wanting to get in between the two of them as it looked like all that was needed at the moment was a spark to ignite this powder keg.
“That I not why we are here today.” Chairman Neigo growled out as he leaned back into his chair. “The Board has voted on Katsuki Bakugo punishment this Hearing is over.” He stood up from his chair quickly and strode with anger to the door and left without another word. The rest of the board members started to scramble out of the room behind him.
Nezu smirk at his victory in this little skirmish between the two of them. He was sure that Neigo would retaliate against him soon. He watched Ms. Bakugo lead her son out of the room to take him home for the duration of his suspension.
"Izuku is not going to be happy about Bakugo's punishment. I am not happy about it and I want you to know that I will be holding him on a tighter leash." Shouta said looking at his boss to make sure he was on board with his decision.
“That will be fine Shouta. I trust you to handle Bakugo as you see fit after this fiasco.” Nezu said standing up from the table. “I will talk to Izuku soon to let him know personally.
Back in the Present
“Sir I am so sorry if I caused you any-.” Izuku tried to apologize to his mentor only to see Nezu stopping him with a wave of his paw.
“You have nothing to apologize for Izuku. This has been a fight between the two of us for the past few years.” Nezu said leaning back in his chair. “I have been investigating that man since he was chosen for the board. Now I have reason to remove him from this prestigious school.”
Izuku gave him a strange look. "Sir I know you well enough to know you would have found something a long time ago." Izuku had learned a lot during his time as Nezu's student and he would not let something like this go on without a reason. "You are wanting to bury the entire Monoma family and the other Board Members in one blow right?"
Nezu started to cackle with pride. "That is exactly right Izuku and I could not be prouder of your deduction of that." Nezu folded his arms. "Now we have a few minutes before lunch starts and there is something else I want to talk to you about." His tone became quiet and calm.
Izuku felt a pit in his stomach. "What is that sir?" He asked knowing that it had to be serious if Nezu was being straightforward.
Nezu looked him in the eye. “All Might has requested to talk with you and your mother this afternoon.”
Izuku felt stunned at Nezu words. "All Might has requested to talk with my mother and I?" He was not sure how to feel about this. He still felt anxious to be in the same room with him the day before. Now he wanted to talk? "Will you be there as well sir?" Izuku asked in a small voice.
Nezu knew this was something his student would have to overcome eventually. "I can sit in if you would like Izuku." Nezu had very few humans that he like to be around. For the longest time, he was comfortable around just Shouta. He had gotten more comfortable with the rest of the staff as time went on, but Izuku was special to him. He felt like a kindred spirit after listening to all the abuse he went through getting knocked down and kept getting back up for more.
"Thank you," Izuku said with a small bow.
Nezu's eyes soften slightly. "My pleasure Izuku. Now it is almost time for lunch and I want you to go have fun with your friends and I will have Vlad King send you up here when it is time to meet with All Might."
Izuku nodded and headed off to find his friends and try to ignore his upcoming meeting with the man that smashed his dreams.
Izuku met up with his friends in the lunchroom. They had grabbed a big table for them all to sit there. At the table was Momo, Kyoka, Ochako, Setsuna, Kirishima, Mina, Toru, Kaminari, Hitoshi, Fumikage, Tsu, Tetsutetsu, Itsuka, Ibara and Pony. Mei was not a fan of large crowds and preferred to her lunch at her workstation.
"YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" Mina shouted after Izuku filled them all in on what happened to Bakugo. The rest of the table was just as upset as she was after hearing how light on punishment Bakugo received. "That prick could have killed me and Toru and they gave him a slap on the wrist?" Mina's hands were trembling with rage. She had never been so scared in her life after watching that Pomeranian go over the deep end.
Toru was hugging herself after hearing that after going through all that and seeing her life flash before her eyes it only cost Bakugo one week. She slept badly the night before after having a nightmare only to wake up in a cold sweat.
"I am sorry," Izuku said to them bowing his head. "They let him off so lightly because I was involved with the whole incident." Izuku felt bad that his friends had not gotten justice because of him.
Izuku felt something tap his shoulder. He turned to see Ochako had poked his shoulder with his finger.
"None of that Izuku," Ochako said in a kind, but stern voice. "You are not responsible for his actions or lack of inaction from the Board." She hated to see him take the blame for the mistake of others.
Mina looked over and gave him a gentle smile. "Izuku I owe you one for saving me and Toru. I don't blame you for their stupidity." Mina reached over and ruffled his messy hair.
"Yeah, I owe you a thanks as well Izuku," Toru said jumping up from her seat and moving around to hug him from behind. "I don't blame you either." She patted his head and let out a small squeal. "His hair is so fluffy. Mina kept petting him."
They had their fun until they were jabbed with Kyoka Earjacks. "Alright enough you are making Green bean feel uncomfortable." She pointed to see he was red-faced and hugging himself. Both backed away and apologized.
“Anyway since we have that all over with. Izuku what do you think 1-B heroics class will be about?” Hitoshi asked just to try and get everything back to normal. “Think it will be a repeat or will they change it up since they watch our class yesterday?”
Izuku thought for a moment. "Possibly a combination of what 1-A did yesterday and adding a new objective added to keep the class guessing," Izuku muttered a bit as he ran the possible scenarios until he noticed the looks of awe on their faces. "Oops started muttering again."
"It's all good Mido-bro," Kirishima said waving it off.
"I must say Midoriya that you have the mind of a tactician," Ibara said after understanding some of his mutterings. "I can see why your team did so well yesterday during the battle trials." Ibara had been quite impressed at how he maneuvered around them.
"Yeah, now I want a chance to spar with you with Tetsutetsu," Itsuka said with a grin as she cracked her knuckles. She had been bored as of late at her dojo since no one was a real challenge. She was hoping that she would get to spar with someone new.
Soon lunch fell into a more lively time for everyone to relax and have some fun talking about their favorite movies. Everyone was having a good time that they had to hurry to finish their food before lunch came to an end.
Like the day before Izuku ran down to the Support Course and got his case from Mei and made sure she had something to eat for lunch before he kissed her cheek and went to get dressed for today's class. When he got to the class he was impressed with almost everyone's costumes. He had to suppress a blush from Setsuna's tight green suit and mask. She gave him a wink as he entered the room. Izuku looked over to see Vlad King standing in front of the class with Snipe and Shouta. Class 1-A was already seated in the viewing room. His friends waved at him as he walked in.
“All Right everyone let’s get started. Yesterday we watched class 1-A battle in teams of two to prevent the detonation of a bomb. Today we are going to do something similar, but with a different objective.” Vlad King clicked the remote showing a similar video as the day before. “You be in teams of two with the Villains will have a hostage that will need to be rescued and Hero team will be going in to search and rescue the hostage.” Vlad clicked the screen off before gesturing for Snipe to bring out the boxes to draw for lots. “Now like yesterday we will be drawing for teams.”
Everyone got in line except Izuku to draw for their team pairings. After entering the pairings into the computer Snipe put them on the screen.
Neito Monoma & Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu (Team A)
Itsuka Kendo & Pony Tsunotori (Team B)
Ibara Shiozaki & Setsuna Tokage (Team C)
Juzo Honenuki & Nirengeki Shoda (Team D)
Yosetsu Awase & Kojiro Bondo (Team E)
Sen Kaibara & Kosei Tsuburaba (Team F)
Reiko Yanagi & Kinoko Komori (Team G)
Jurota Shishida & Hiryu Rin (Team H)
Yui Kodai & Manga Fukidashi (Team I)
Togaru Kamakiri & Shihai Kuroiro (Team J)
“Izuku come on up and draw to see who you will be paired with.” Vlad King called out after placing all of the lots back in the box. After drawing his lot with a B.
Setsuna complained about Izuku not being on their team. Ibara patted the girl's shoulders in sympathy. Pony got excited and high-fived Itsuka about getting their new friends on their team. As Vlad hit the randomizer on the screen everyone watched the screen intensely. When it stopped everyone was stunned at the pairing.
Itsuka Kendo & Pony Tsunotori (Izuku Midoriya) (Team B) Heroes
Vs
Neito Monoma & Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu (Team A) Villains
“So much for random matches. “Shouta muttered as he rolled his eyes at the computer screen. He was 100% certain that Nezu was messing with the computer pairings from his office for his own amusement against the Chairman to make a point. Shouta knew this was not going to end well for Monoma.
Vlad King had to suppress a comment of his own before he cleared his throat before speaking. “Now Villain team will carry this computerized dummy and place it in the location of their choice inside the building. You have 15 minutes to prepare your lair as you see fit.”
Tetsutetsu picked up the dummy and followed a smug-looking Neito towards the building. The rest of the class let out a sigh as he left the room. They had been getting tired of his superior attitude and talking down to the class. He was hoping that it would fade soon, but he was not holding his breath at this point.
Izuku was doing one last check of his equipment when he heard someone behind him. "Papa!" Izuku turned and smile to see his Daughter run into the room towards him. She was followed by his Mom a moment later with a smile on her face. Izuku smiled at her antics and scooped her up as she got close and hugged her tight. Raphtalia started to giggle. "I wanted to come to wish you, luck Papa." Her smile was bright and full of life.
Izuku kissed her forehead. "Well, I am glad to see you too, and Thank you for wanting to wish me luck." He tossed her up in the air and caught her just as quick to make her laugh. The room couldn't help but smile at this adorable sight. Mina and Toru squealed at this. His girlfriends were smiling at the sight as well. "I have to head in to plan with my team, but will you keep out of trouble today?"
Raphtalia smiled back giving him a thumbs up. "Ok, Papa." As soon as her feet hit the floor she ran off to sit on Momo's lap while talking with Setsuna and the others around her. She started telling her about her day was happy at their attention. She waved at Izuku as he walked into the waiting area with his teammates. As she was sitting there she decided to have a bit of harmless fun looking over at Mina. "Hey, Miss Mina you never answered my question yesterday about my Papa."
Mina stiffened at her words and flushed a little bit purple. “Oh, I didn’t?” Mina asked not sure how to answer that question. Sure, Izuku had been kind and nice to her and her best friend, but she just met him the day before. She and Toru had a small discussion earlier after Toru overheard them this morning in the abandoned classroom and they were positive they were all dating. “What do you want from anyone who becomes your Mama?” Mina redirected the question hoping to distract her.
Raphtalia thought for a moment. "Well, I would want her to make my Papa happy. I would want her to be pretty and enjoy taking care of me." Raphtalia acted like she had to think about it some more watching how her mamas were listening to her words. "I would want her to read stories to me and take me to play in the park." She watched as her mamas all smiled at her description and then she hopped off Momo's lap and went over to stand in front of Toru.
"Miss Toru, will you date my Papa so you can be my new Mama?" Raphtalia asked her tone was sweet and genuine. She watched at the inviable girl when stiff. Raphtalia waited as the invisible girl slowly started to move and picked the girl up and hugged her.
"I will talk with him later about setting something up," Toru said hugging the stuffing out of the girl. She sat Raphtalia on her lap and began to pet her head making her tail wag happily as she leaned into the petting. "Oh, you are so adorable.”
While this was going on the girls were stunned that she pulled the same trick twice and this time someone said yes. Ochako pinched the bridge of her nose. “We need to talk with her about her antics.” She mumbled to the others who nodded in agreement.
"I blame Setsuna," Momo said giving her friend a sideways glance in her direction. "Raphtalia learned her mischievous ways from the best."
Setsuna gave a weak chuckle. “I didn’t think she would do it again.” She tried to defend herself. She liked to tease and joke around, but this was coming back to bite her in the ass. “Hey those tendencies were already there I just encouraged them.”
Kyoka rolled her eyes. "I heard you tell her good work yesterday when she did the same thing to Mina." The perk of having good hearing was she could hear certain things when she wanted to.
"Let's deal with this later. The match is about to start." Ochako said watching as the timer counted down to zero. She planned to have all of them sit down with her when they got a chance.
Izuku had talked it over with his teammates as they decided to take it slow and cautious in the beginning. He switched to an SPD Morpher and waved his hand filling the room with bright green energy. He used the ability of Psychometry. The energy formed in the vague shape of their opponents and moved towards the stairs. "This way," Izuku said quietly as they slowly and cautiously follow the energy projections. They had decided to use his abilities to help find out where they were hiding in the building and find a way to distract them long enough to get the hostage out. The building was shorter than one for the day before by a floor and was a bit on the narrow side. After a few more waves they narrowed down the room closest to the stairs when Izuku canceled out his ability.
Kendo gestured for them to slowly move back down to the floor below. After finding a good spot to talk Kendo pulled out a hand-drawn map of the building and pointed to the room in question. "There is a window on the side of the building that Pony can use to make entry after we make a big enough distraction drawing Tetsutetsu and Monoma away from hostage."
“Plan sounds good.” Pony said before switching back to English. “I will wait for the chance to grab the hostage and get out.” She gave them a thumbs up. She wanted to beat that arrogant jerk that had been insulting her for being American and called her a cow on the first day of class.
"I think it is time for us to have a little fun with Monoma." He changed his Morpher and nodded towards Itsuka. After talking over their plan of action. They went to work.
Monoma sat there bored out of his mind as he sat there with the class brute waiting for the other team to arrive. He saw this entire exercise as pointless. He wanted to do something more heroic to show off his amazing abilities. Unfortunately, he was only able to copy his teammate's Steel quirk. He wished had a chance to borrow a few from his other classmates, but they would fade before he got a chance to use them. He had tried to flirt with some of his female classmates, but they just blew off his advances. He could not understand his family was of high prestige and influence. Now he was going to prove it by beating the mistake that was allowed into this school and prove he doesn't belong here. He was broken from his musings when the door blew off its hinges revealing Kendo standing in the door with her Large Fists. “Finally, time for some fun," Monoma said standing up as stalked towards her dusting off his pants. "Awfully brave to come here alone Hero."
Itsuka smirked “So far I am not impressed with what I’m seeing.” She smirked as Monoma scowled at her for the insult. She reached up and tapped her ear. “I found them one floor up in the corner.” She resumed her battle pose. “I won’t be outnumbered for long.” She taunted with a ‘come and get me’ gesture with her hands.
Tetsutetsu activated his quirk and rush towards initiating the fight. "Should have waited for backup!" he yelled starting to exchange blows with her. He powered through her enhanced blows and rained down his attacks, which she deflected with her enlarged hands. Itsuka and Tetsutetsu continued to exchange blows as Monoma watched with boredom. He saw no reason for him to sully his hands with a lowly commoner. He would wait for maybe for another member to appear before he acted.
As he was about to join his teammate just to alleviate his boredom to take her out of the fight when the window exploded inward as Pony came flying in on her horns heading towards the dummy with a smile on her face. Monoma smirked and moved to intercept her when he tripped and fell to the floor face first. "What the hell?" He swore as he looked to see what had caused him to trip.
Izuku slowly started to reappear with the capture cloth in hand on his wrist was a silver bracelet with a black stone. “Hello did you have a nice trip?” He smirked at his opponent's confusion. Izuku had used the Black Dino gem Invisibility power and followed Itsuka into the room and moved to get in place for Pony's arrival. When she came to get the dummy he wrapped the cloth around Monoma ankle and tripped him to the floor. "I have the illustrious honor to say Thank you for handing us our win."
“Impossible!” Monoma snarled trying to get up from the ground watching just in time to see Pony carrying the dummy on her back giving him a victory sign as she flew towards the window. His stomach dropped as she cleared the window a moment later.
HERO TEAM WINS!
Izuku flicked his wrist and recalled the scarf back to him. "Nice job Itsuka." He called out as he walked back to his teammate. They gave each other a high five. "You did well Tetsutetsu. Maybe next time we can have a full-out fight."
Tetsutetsu smirked big at that. "Set the time man and I will be there ready to throw down with you." He gave Izuku a fist bump and was eager to have a match with him.
Monoma stood up jabbing a finger towards Izuku. "I knew a quirkless freak like you were a coward. You hid behind a woman and then ambushed me." He snarled seething in rage at behind trick by something like HIM. “Why did you fight with the blonde gremlin, but hide from us? Were you scared of a real opponent?”
Izuku rolled his eyes. "I know Bakugo since childhood. I knew what buttons I needed to push to get him off balance. I didn't even see any reason for me to fight you when your pride would do that for me." Izuku gave him a shrug brushing off his insult. "I didn't see a purpose to go all out when a slight distraction and perfectly timed trip from me was all it took for our win." Izuku turned and walked out the door heading back to the viewing room.
Itsuka and Tetsutetsu glared at their arrogant classmate before following behind him.
Monoma stood in shock at how easily he was dismissed. He was of a pedigree going back 200 years. He had been trained since the age of 4 to be the best. He had been able to charm people in a room since the age of 10. This made no sense of how people kept brushing him aside as if he was nobody. He wanted to act like the gremlin the day before and attack that freak, but his Father and Uncle warned him against that since it would draw unwanted attention from the Principal at this time. So, he would do what his family had done for centuries. Wait until the moment was right and destroy everything he loved.
The hero team came back into the room with cheers at their win. Mostly it was coming from Class 1-B since Monoma had lost. They had been stuck in class with him for 3 days and they were already tired of him. They were enjoying him getting knocked down a peg.
Izuku was quickly greeted by Raphtalia in her normal excited self. "Papa! You won!" She jumped off of Toru's lap to run over to be picked up and hugged. Izuku did chuckle at her antics. She was full-on energy as her tail sang wildly.
"Thank you Raphtalia," Izuku said with a smile. She looked over to see his girlfriends were giving her a stern look. "Are you behaving?" Izuku had a suspicion that she had been mischievous again.
"Well, I have been kind of good," Raphtalia said looking away from him. She was trying to look as innocent as possible.
Izuku quirked an eyebrow. “Is that so?” he said walking towards the girls. “Let me ask Momo then if you have been behaving.” Izuku felt her tense at that. “Up to mischief then?”
“I’m sorry.” She curled into him hiding her face. Her ears folded up.
Toru got up walking over to pat the girl on the head. “It’s OK Izuku. She was trying to get you a date. It was rather adorable in her attempts to make you happy.” She leaned to one side. “When this is over I want to find time for you to take me out on a date.”
Izuku's face turned beet red at this. "W-What?" He was not sure he heard her right. He looked down to see Raphtalia doing a small fist pump. 'That little mischievous Tanuki.' He thought as he tried to find the right words. He felt an invisible finger touch his lips.
"Later Izuku~," Toru said heading back to her seat adding a bit of sway in her hips.
Before Izuku could even finish processing that he heard a phone ring and saw Shouta take it out of his pocket to answer it. After about 10 seconds he hung up. He gestured for Izuku to come towards him. "Nezu wants you in his office for a meeting." Shouta left it vague for his privacy. He looked over at Inko "He had requested your presence as well Miss Midoriya."
"OK I will grab Raphtalia and we will head that way," Inko replied standing up. Heading over to grab her granddaughter. She knew the girl was not going to be happy to sit through a meeting.
"Excuse me Miss Midoriya," Tsu called walking up to her.
Inko stopped to look at the young frog girl. "Yes, dear?"
"If you are ok with it all of the girls can watch her for you Kero," Tsu suggested pointing to her fellow classmates. "I have two younger siblings at home and wouldn't mind watching her for a bit."
"Are you sure? I don't want to inconvenience you girls." Inko had been a bit hesitant to leave her with strangers. She knew Izuku Girlfriends would help, but she was not sure how Raphtalia would handle her and Izuku not being around.
“It’s all good Miss Midoriya we don’t mind.” Toru chimed in waving at her. She wanted to spend more time with the young girl anyway.
"Yeah, we got this Mama Midoriya." Mina joined in giving her a peace sign. "I don't mind helping them watch this cutie." Now that she knew how crafty the girl was she was prepared for her antics.
Ochako stood up and transferred Raphtalia from Izuku over to her hip. “We will watch her it’s not a problem.” She said as Setsuna, Momo, and Kyoka nodded along. They had watched her before so this was not a big deal.
“I Help Too.” Pony said quickly clacking her hooves as she bounced back and forth. “I want to help with the Chibi.” She added in English. Pony waved at the girl with a big smile. Itsuka and Ibara also said they would help as well.
Inko thought for a moment. "That will be fine, but if there is an issue have please have someone get a hold of myself or Izuku." She was probably safer here than anywhere else at this point.
"It will be fine Miss Midoriya," Momo said in a regal tone. "She will be fine under our care." Momo gave her a reassuring smile.
“Thank you, girls, for doing this I really appreciate it. Raphtalia please behave for them while I am gone.” Inko said giving her a stern look.
Raphtalia nodded quickly. Yes, Grandma." She knew her Grandma could be scary when she got mad. She had watched her yell at an older student for something. It was pretty scary to her.
Izuku kissed his daughter's forehead. "Be a good girl for the girls and I may forgo a punishment for your mischief earlier." He looked up to see Setsuna and Kyoka mouthing the word 'softy'. He gave them a quick wink.
"OK, Papa." She smiled at him as she got comfortable with Ochako. She focused back on the screen when Setsuna was called up next with her partner Ibara as they faced off against Reiko Yanagi & Kinoko Komori for the next match.
Off to the side, Mina and Toru were having a text conversation on their phones about possible plans for the future. They decided this was the best way to talk with Kyoka in the room.
Izuku and Inko made their way to Nezu's office. Nezu had sent Inko a message about having All Might talk with them together. Izuku started to feel anxious as soon as he left the viewing room. He felt his mother throw her arm around his shoulder. "I will be with you the whole-time baby.” She said pulling him a bit closer to her.
"Thanks, Mom," Izuku replied leaning against her shoulder. He had been nervous about seeing him in class that first time and he had the girls there to help him. He was not sure why All Might wanted to see him now after 10 months. It felt like an eternity walking towards Nezu's Office. As he reached the door to find it opening up automatically like it usually did. When they entered Izuku spotted his mentor in his usual spot at his desk. The chairs had been turned to face each other 6ft apart. All Might was sitting in one of the chairs in a yellow striped suit. He had a serious expression on his face.
Izuku took a deep breath as he entered the room. His mother gently gripped his shoulder in support. "Thank you for letting us use your office, sir," Izuku said to break the tension in the room a bit. He was glad that Nezu was here with his mother for support.
"You are quite welcome Izuku and Thank you Miss Midoriya for coming as well," Nezu replied with a wave of his paw. He pressed a button and the door closed behind them. Both of them took a set across from the #1 Hero as All Might's leg fidgeted a bit.
"Not a problem sir. Now, what is this meeting about?" Inko looked at All Might with a lot of contempt and fury. It was enough to make the man fidget a bit. She had heard everything from Izuku so long ago, but she never forgot his broken voice when he told that part of his story about All Might crushing his dreams. "You can drop your form. I was told by Recovery Girl and Nezu in case there was an Emergency with you." Izuku and All Might both looked surprised at this revelation.
“Oh, I see, well I can do that.” All Might said before in a poof he shrank down, but not as much as Izuku remembered of him. He no longer coughed up blood when he shrank down. His face was more rounded and his eyes were no longer sunken. “Thank you for that.”
Izuku looked completely shocked look at a healthier All Might. This was a complete change from the tiny skeleton he met that day. "Y-You look a lot better than the last time I saw you." He cursed himself for that stutter, but he was trying to remain calm.
"I actually have you to thank for that Young Midoriya. After that day when you save Young Bakugo after I had reached my time and was forced to watch from the sidelines. I have to say it was an impressive display of heroism." All Might shifted in his seat a bit. "I called an old friend of mine before I went to have surgery on my Lung and Stomach. I have been slowly working my way back up to my current weight."
Inko was stunned as she was staring at the Pro Hero. She had been told he was a sickly-looking skeleton after his injury years ago. But sitting in front of him was a handsome blon- 'No Bad Inko' she thought as she gave him a quick once over. She cleared her throat and refocused her attention. Now, All Might-."
"When I am like this please call me Toshinori Yagi," Toshinori said quickly.
Inko stopped for a moment before speaking again. “Mr. Yagi you said you had something you wanted to say to my son?” She wanted to keep this meeting on track and keep her mind occupied. It was a bit hard for her not to keep staring at him.
“Yes, I did," Toshinori said stand up before dropping to his knees and pressing his head to the floor in a submissive bow. "Izuku Midoriya. The day I met you I told you 'I'm Sorry Kid, but without a quirk, you can't be a hero.' That was the biggest mistake of my life." Toshinori remained as still as a stone wall. "I forgot my own humble beginnings as a boy who got his quirk came so late in life that I grew up the same as you did Quirkless. My own Master gave me a chance when no one else would. It was because of that chance that I discovered my quirk and became the hero I am today. I have been trying to focus everything in my life to be the greatest hero that could save everyone that I forgot who I was. When you saved Young Bakugo that day you showed me what a true hero was. For that Izuku Midoriya, I beg for your forgiveness of my callous words that day. You are a True Hero in my book." Toshinori remained in the bow unmoving as he finished speaking.
Izuku covered his mouth as tears ran down his face. He was not sure what to do. He had so much fear and pain from the man who was now begging for forgiveness in front of him. He heard people tell him that for months he was a hero. His mother, sisters, mentors, girlfriends, and daughter all called him a Hero. Here was a man that had told him it was impossible for him. The Man who destroyed his dream that day was now apologizing for his words. All Might had said that he was wrong about him. Izuku was not sure what he was supposed to do. He looked at his mother who looked just as surprised as he did. He looked over to Nezu who was sitting at his desk stoned-faced.
"Mr. Yagi please sit up," Izuku said taking a calming breath. Toshinori sat up to look at him. "I know that you mean every word that you said here today. I know it was not easy for you to come here and beg for forgiveness for a mistake." Izuku knelt in front of him so they were on an even footing. "I want to be angry at you for that day, but I can't anymore." Izuku looked over to see a confused look on both his mother's and Toshinori's face. "If that day had not happened then I may not be the person I am today. That day I was selected to become a Ranger. I took what you said and used it to help me become better. I trained hard with my teachers. My mother became one of my biggest supporters and helped strengthen my bond with her."
Izuku thought back to everything that had happened to him since that day. He had put in the hours of hard work to get to UA. He had a family he could count on. Friends that he had made here at UA and his Girlfriends that cared for him. He was happy with how his life had turned out. "A wise man once said Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." Izuku reached out to Toshinori with a hand. "I forgive you. I would like to start over with a clean slate. My Name is Izuku Midoriya. Nice to meet you."
Toshinori looked at the young man in awe. He had been so wrong about this boy. David had been right. This boy could have been his successor. Toshinori reached out and shook his hand. “Please to meet you young Midoriya. My Name is Toshinori Yagi. Thank you for this second chance.” He looked over towards the boy’s mother. “You raised an amazing son Ms. Midoriya.” He gave her a big smile.
Inko was extremely proud of her son. It took a lot of courage to do what he did. "That I have Mr. Yagi." She looked at the man giving him a serious glare. "I will follow my son's example and we will start with a clean slate as well, but know this I don't forgive those who throw away a second chance."
Toshinori smiled at that. "I understand ma'am. I hope to make the best of it." Toshinori was trying not to focus on Inko's beauty. 'May I can take her out for coffee sometime.' He wondered to himself. He had been struck by her beauty the first time he saw her. He had not felt this way for a long time, but that was for another day. Today was about his second chance with Izuku.
Nezu sat back with a smile at Izuku. He knew that it took a lot for him to reach that maturity for a 15-year-old. He could have reacted with anger and stormed out, but he rose above his anger and fear instead of drowning in it with kindness. He was sure there was still be some awkward moment between them for a while, but that was to be expected.
Beep-Beep- Beep-Beep- Beep-Beep
"Izuku I am detecting a large amount of magical energy radiating from a populated area that is matched to Fire Heart Magical Signature!" DECA said through his communicator breaking the mood in the room instantly.
Izuku stood up quickly in surprise since last he knew Fire Heart was still hibernating in an Egg back in the Command Center. He had approached the egg shortly after finding it and discovered he was sleeping until the time was right for him to return. He knew he needed to act quickly if that much power was now in a public area could be dangerous. 'Nezu-." He started, but the Principal was already a flurry of motion.
"Greenlight Izuku. Nezu said handing him a stamped card "Go I will gather your fellow Rangers and send them to you shortly if needed." Nezu looked over at Toshinori. "How much time do you have left for the day, Mr. Yagi?"
"About 40 minutes in total," Toshinori replied almost instantly. He had been making sure to keep track of his time to never be a bystander again if he could help it.
"Good, then you will standby here in case your presence is needed for assistance," Nezu stated as he looked back at his student. "Be safe and call when you are ready for help to arrive."
"Roger that," Izuku replied. He quickly hugged his mother before tapping his Communicator teleporting to the area that was detecting the magical energy.
Nezu hit the speed dial on his phone as soon as the person picked Nezu spoke quickly. “Shouta send me Setsuna, Ochako, Momo, and Kyoka to my office ASAP and tell them to bring Raphtalia with them.”
"On it Boss," Shouta replied before ending the call.
As soon as Izuku landed he put on his visor and started scanning the area. After getting a lock on the magical signature he started in that direction at a full sprint. The readings were starting to grow confirming he was going in the right direction.
Eri lay curled up on the floor tired and sore after her most recent session with Kai. She rubbed the bandages on her arm and whimpered at the pain. She wanted to be free and wanted to be with someone that would take care of her. She wished with all her might. "Please someone save me." She whispered holding herself tight.
‘I hear you little one.’ A male voice rumbled in her mind.
Eri sat up quickly and looked around only to see she was still alone in her room. “W-Who is there?” She asked quickly. She was scared that one of her guards had heard her and was about to come in a punish her.
‘Be at ease little one, I am here to help you. My name is Fire Heart.’ The voice rumbled again in a soothing tone. ‘Do you want me to help you?’
Eri was scared but swallowed before speaking the words she wished for so long. "Yes! Please save me." Her voice was a loud whisper. She had been dreaming recently of the person with green hair swooping in to rescue her.
‘Then I will help you escape and I have a way for the right person to find you. I know you are terrified of that man, but if you do as I say I can help you escape his clutches.’ Fire Heart said gently in her head. ‘You must be brave little one.’
Eri took a deep breath “OK.” She stood up and mustered all of her courage. “What do I need to do?” She was willing to trust Fire Heart to get out of here if it meant that she would never have to be cut by him again.
‘Good. I know you have a strong heart. Now in a moment, I will unlock the door and when I do I want you to open it and run to the left. I will give you instructions as needed.' Fire Heart explained to her as he sent a warm feeling surrounding her.
Eri relaxed as that warm feeling washed over her helping to calm her nerves. “I’m ready.”
‘Now.’ Fire Heart said as red sparkles surrounded the lock and it unlocked with an audible click.
Eri moved quickly throwing open the door and darted out of the room not bothering to look as she ran to the left with everything she had. She ignored the aching muscles as she ran down the long hallway.
‘Right.’
‘Left.’
‘Straight.’
‘Right.’
Eri followed his every change of direction. Soon she reached a stairwell and hurried up the steps. It felt like an eternity before she reached the top of the stairs and tried to get the door open, but it was locked. "It's locked!" Eri whispered in a near-panic.
‘One moment.’ Fire Heart replied wrapping her in warmth to keep her courage up. More red sparkles appeared and surrounded the door until it opened. ‘Now Run.’
Eri opened the door was forced to close her eyes at the bright light. After a few moments, she could see well enough to keep running. She had run down several alleyways as she followed more of Fire Heart's instructions.
‘Straight ahead little one. Your savior is just up ahead.’ Fire Heart said in an amused rumble.
Eri ran with everything she had in that direction. It was as she neared the end of the alley she saw the green-haired boy from the TV wearing a gray uniform. She never slowed down as she ran towards him.
Izuku felt someone slam into his leg almost knocking him over. He looked down to see a little girl roughly Raphtalia age in a dirty medical gown and bandages on her arms and legs that looked just as filthy. She has snow-white hair down to her waist with a small little horn on the right side of her forehead. What got his attention was the look of pure terror in her scared red eyes. “Please. Help me.” The girl panted. “Please.” The little girl was shaking in terror. Izuku scanner was off the charts with magical energy that was radiating off of her.
Izuku dropped down to one knee. "OK I'll help you, my name is Izuku. What is your name?" He had already had his Morpher in hand.
“E-Eri.” She said quietly. “I don’t want to go back to the bad place. Please?” She was starting to shake harder.
Izuku carefully and gently placed a hand on her shoulder watching her wince slightly to his touch. "Then I will protect you." From what he could see she was covered in the energy that matched Fire Heart's signature and knew this was who he had been looking for.
"Oi! she had to go this way hurry or the boss will make us all pay for it!" Someone said around loud enough to be heard from a distance.
"Eri please stay behind me I will take care of these guys," Izuku said taking off his jacket and wrapping around gently around her shoulders. He had his Morpher in hand ready for action.
Eri looked up in awe as her Hero stood tall in front of her. The wind was lightly blowing his green hair with the light radiating off of him. She cried tears of joy. "My angel came for me." Eri cried softly. She had wished for this moment for so long it felt like a dream.
‘That he has little one. Trust him for he is a good and kind man. Now watch.’ Fire Heart said pride in his voice. ‘You will see something truly amazing.’ The magical energy that had been surrounding the girl since her escape had started to gather in front of her and coalesce to form a large red Egg with scales all over it. Eri held onto it with everything she had as it made her feel warm and safe.

Chapter Text
Izuku reached up and tapped his earpiece. "Nezu I found who we were looking for. DECA can you teleport the others to my location please."
"Affirmative Izuku," DECA responded quickly.
"I have some friends that are coming here in just a moment so don't be scared when they arrive," Izuku called back to the little girl. "Don't know who you guys are, but I'd walk away while you can." He called out as a least a dozen thugs came around the corner.
"We ain't scared of one little punk." One of them said cracking their knuckles. The others in the group murmured words of agreement and started to stalk towards him.
(Go Green Ranger OST)
Izuku let out a sigh. "Well, I did try to warn you at least." Taking his ready stance “It’s Morphing Time! Dragonzord!” He cracked his knuckles at this they all seemed to hesitate with this new development. They started to back away until one of them was brave enough to rush forward. Izuku deflected the attack and drove a knee into the man's stomach sending him backwards to the ground. "Who's next?" The others decided it was best to try and overpower him with numbers.
Izuku changed up his style and let them come to him. He had created a buffer between them and Eri and was not about to let them get close to her. He redirected attacks into the group causing chaos. He had knocked a few down when he heard DECA in his earpiece. “Help arriving in just moment Izuku.” He smiled as held the line.
As his backup teleported in Izuku batted another thug to the ground. "Join in whenever. That girl needs protection from these guys." He turned back to a roundhouse kick to another thug's face.
A few of the thugs started to laugh. "What that is you're back up a bunch of little girls? It's against the law for them to use their quirks on us." The others started snickering.
(Go Go Power Rangers OST)
"Well, then it's a good thing these aren't our quirks then," Ochako said with a smirk as readied her Morpher. "Let's do it, Girls."
“It’s Morphin Time!”
Go Go Samurai!
“ Dino Thunder Power up!
“Let’s Rocket! 3-3-5 Enter!
“Dino Charger Ready! Energize! Unleash the Power!
As they finish another group came running out to join the fray. "Oh yeah, I needed this," Setsuna said charging into the melee. She started to punch and kick her way through them alongside Izuku.
Kyoka shrugged "Well if you beat'em then join 'em." She jumped into the fray and let out some frustration on the guys in question. She launched into the air and dropped down and a couple of them before flipping back to fight beside Setsuna and Izuku.
Ochako and Momo shook their heads as they stood next to the young girl who was watching them all with cautious eyes. "Hello I'm Ochako and this is Momo." Momo waved at the girl. "We are friends with Izuku. We will keep you safe." Ochako knelt while Momo watched her back.
"Y-You know Mr. Izuku?" Eri, ask quietly still clutching the egg for courage.
Ochako smiled under her helmet. “Yes, I know him quite well. What's your name sweetie?"
“E-Eri.” She said looking at the woman in pink.
Momo looked down at the girl. "Hello, Eri." Her arm rested on her sword hilt as she kept the fight in her line of sight.
"It's nice to meet you Eri," Ochako said gently. She looked up to see the last of them falling to the ground.
"Well, I have to say that was a little interesting," Izuku said looking over the men on the ground looking for clues as to who they were. "DECA any match in the database?" Izuku asked as he found none of them were carrying ID just money and weapons.
"I have multiple matches Izuku. All individuals I have scanned so far are a match for the Yakuza in the police database. All of them have outstanding warrants local authorities for a plethora of heinous charges." DECA replied to all of the Rangers as she continued to run faces as they went, but each one was a longtime member of the Shie Hassaikai.
“Those guys are still around?” Setsuna asked as she looked at thugs starting to groan and trying to move around. “Thought they all became extinct after All Might and the other Pros took them down years ago.”
Kyoka shook her head. “Seem that these cockroaches are still around just going after little girls nowadays.” She looked over to see Izuku coming back towards them. “Anything?”
Izuku shook his head. "Nope. Besides the Facial matches, I got just now. Nothing that would give a reason why nearly 2 dozen guys were sent out here to retrieve one little girl." Izuku gestured for them to head back to the girl. He knelt in front of Eri. "How are you doing Eri?" Izuku noted that she was holding Fireheart's egg tightly to her body. He decided to ask that question later about Fireheart. Right now, she needed to be reassured that she was safe.
"I-I'm fine Mr. Izuku," Eri said softly. She looked around to see a few of the people that would guard her room on the ground. "T-Thank you for saving me." Her voice was soft and her eyes started to glass over with more tears.
"Ok, now I want to go kick them while they are down," Setsuna grumbled watching the little unicorn in front of her starting to tear up.
"I'll help," Kyoko said in agreement. 'Who would want to hurt her?" she wondered to herself as she glared at the thugs on the ground.
"I wouldn't see anything." Momo chimed in. She was very tempted to join in as well but stopped herself.
"I think we should take her to see Recovery Girl just to make sure she is ok," Ochako said kneeling beside Izuku. She didn't like the fact the girl was covered in dirty bandages and a hospital gown.
Izuku nodded in agreement. "Alright let's head back and get her loo-." Izuku was cut off with the sound of someone running around the corner. He turned to look and saw another guy looking around. He was in a similar cloth to the other in the ground, but he was a bit nicer looking compared to the others.
"Oh, crap." The man said looking at his compatriot scattered across the ground. "I can't let you take that girl!" The man screamed at them as he reached into his jacket and tossed a black and gold card on the ground. The moment the card hit the ground a large number of Batlings started to appear out of a cloud of smoke.
Izuku stood up immediately. "DECA alert Nezu we have a Ranger Incident with Batlings. Call out for Miruko or Ryukyu to back up us ASAP and advise them we have a civilian in the area." Izuku drew his Dragon Dagger. "Everyone these guys demon imps. They are not very strong, but they can swarm and cause a lot of damage if they get out of this alley and into the general area. Setsuna, Momo, and Kyoka you three are with me to keep them contained. Ochako you guard Eri until backup arrived then you can join us."
“Roger!” The girls responded together.
"Working in it Izuku," DECA responded.
Izuku tapped his helmet. "DECA disable Safety Mode." Safety Mode was added by DECA, Mei, and Izuku after they determined that without a restriction on power output he could kill somebody with a kick or a punch if he was not careful. When Safety Mode was on it lowers the power output for him to be able to fight regular villains. It worked with bladed weapons and blasters as well to prevent serious injuries to people.
Izuku and the others dashed forward into the melee. Momo drew her spins sword from her side before she started hacking and slashing her way through them. Kyoka summoned her Ptera daggers and followed Momo's example started to work through them. Setsuna summoned her raptors and started to devastate the Batling ranks with her sword and their claws. Izuku slashed a few of the Batlings with each slash before taking down another with a kick. They had dropped countless enemies but they were still coming. "Find the card and destroy it!" Izuku called out defecting a Batlings sword that was aimed at his chest. He summoned the Power Sword he had Mei make for him in the forge. It was identical to the original Red Rangers weapon, but was green and had a different logo on the hilt. "DECA what is the status of backup?"
“Miruko and Ryukyu are just finishing up a rescue operation and will be on their way when they can. Until then I have another Ranger inbound with support.”DECA responded with pride in her voice.
“What? Who?” Kyoko called out as she flipped a few Batlings to the ground.
"Doesn't matter. Well, take whatever help they can give us right now!" Ochako called firing off several shots from her Astro Blaster at the few Batlings that had slipped through.
Two lights teleported in one Silver and the other Blue.
Mei had been working in her workshop most of the day. She had been making some progress on a few projects for her school clients and a few Ranger projects as well. There were a few files on her desk with a variety of titles. Project MACK (DECA?), Terra Venture, and a few others that were obscured from view. She had been listening in on the group's com traffic and when she heard Izuku say Batlings she froze in place. She had been around the Command Center enough to know some of the creatures from the Ranger archives. She knew they were protecting someone along with trying to fight the Batlings.
DECA fox body moved close to Mei on her desk causing Mei to look over at her. "Mei, I know you don't believe you are worthy to be a Ranger, but you truly are," DECA told her from her fox body sitting on the desk near her files. "You can help get that civilian out of danger and come back here immediately. You don't need to fight."
Mei thought for a moment before nodding. "Ok. I'll go back them up." Mei wanted to help her family and if they could be brave, then so could she. She grabbed her files and locked them in her desk drawer.
"Good," DECA replied to her. The chest compartment opened and Mei's Morpher was now visible.
Mei took the Morpher in hand "Do I need to ask the Principal for permission first?"
“Mei you have permission now go help the others. I have already sent a message to Power Loader. You are cleared to respond.” Nezu said to her over the intercom near her workstation.
"That was easy." Mei mumbled, "DECA I think we should wake up a friend of ours to give us an extra hand."
“I am already on it. He will be ready to go momentarily. DECA replied to her. “Time to make an entrance Mei.”
Mei nodded to her metallic friend. “It’s Morphin Time! Triceratops!” She was gone in a flash of blue light.
Izuku looked back for a moment to see the two figures teleporting in. One was the Blue Power Ranger and the other was Robo Knight. "Thanks for the backup!" He called out taking down another Batling before performing a spin kick on another.
“Anytime Zuzu.” The Blue Ranger called waving at them.
"Wait, Mei?" Ochako called out looking at their friend. "How? When?"
"Later Ochako," Mei said as she drew Power Blaster and helped her drop a few of the Batlings. "Hi, there little one. My name is Mei and I am here to take you somewhere safe." Mei knelt down gesturing for Eri to come towards her with an open arm.
‘I-if Mr. Izuku is ok with it.” Eri said staring in awe at Robo Knight and Mei. She clutched the egg a bit tighter.
"I trust Mei with my life Eri," Izuku called out to the girl as he flipped a Batling away from him. "She will keep you safe until I get there to see you. I promise."
"Ok," Eri replied looked at Mei. "I'll go with you." She clutched the egg as she moved towards Mei
Mei quickly scooped the young girl in her free arm and held her close. “Robo Knight. Can you stay and help them out?”
“Affirmative Ma’am.” Robo Knight responded as he summoned his Robo Blaster to his hand. “I will assist the other Rangers in handling this threat.” Robo Knight started to walk forward slowly taking precise shots to take the Batlings down one by one.
"DECA teleport us out please," Mei called out as she teleported with Eri and the egg safely away.
“Alright everyone with Eri safe we can go to work. I can see that card let’s finish this!” Momo said sending a wave of fire from her spin sword into the Batlings taking out some more of them.
“On it!” Ochako said darting into the opening Momo had just created by summoning her Satellite Stunner to her free hand and started blasting her was towards the card with both weapons.
"Let's clear a path for her ladies," Izuku said clearing a few more of them out her way for her. Kyoka and Setsuna followed suit. Ochako was able to see the card and well enough to fire off several shots from her Astro Blaster that destroyed that card causing the battling to vanish into puffs of black smoke. "Nice shooting there Ochako." Izuku gave her a thumbs up after sheathing his dagger
Ochako holstered her Astro Blaster. “It was a team effort.” She moved closer with the others. “Thank you for your assistance. It was Robo Knight?" She was wanting to make sure she was calling him by the correct name.
"That is affirmative ma'am." Robo Knight turned his head towards her. "I was glad to be of service. I have been deactivated for a long time. I was being updated with current events by DECA and was correcting some old issues with my operating systems." He stood stone still and arm relaxed at his side.
"Still we appreciate the assist," Izuku said looking at the guy that threw the card. "Now I have a few questions for you." Izuku started to walk away from the man who was sweating bullets as he backed away towards the wall. "Where did you get that card?"
"I can-." That was all the man said before a hand came around the corner and grabbed his face causing him to scream in terror before he exploded leaving behind a pool of blood and gore.
"Oh, God," Momo said bringing her free hand to her helmet as her other hand tightened on her sword.
"Jesus," Kyoka said turn her head slightly away from the scene in front of her.
"That is messed up," Setsuna said tightening her grip on her sword. Make a subtle hand gesture for her raptors to make ready for another fight.
"I think I am going to be sick," Ochako mumbled. Thanking whatever deity, she could think of at that moment Eri was not here to see what just happened. She was prepared to fire off her Satellite Stunner if he made a move towards them.
"What just happened?" Izuku asked as a man wearing a bird mask walked around the corner wiped the blood off his hands. Before Izuku could ask he got a message from DECA into their earpiece. “Izuku that is Kai Chisaki AKA Overhaul leader of the Shie Hassaikai.!” Her voice was urgent in his ear. “Standby for instructions from Nezu”
"Those idiots had one job guard a child and they couldn't even do that right. Where is Eri?" Overhaul asked in an angry voice. He looked around and noted that she was not around. He pulled another wipe from his pocket to finish cleaning his hands.
"Why do you care?" Izuku asked trying to figure out Overhaul. Izuku's hand fell towards the handle of his dagger.
Overhaul snapped his fingers and three more men came around the corner. “None of your business of what I want with that brat. She belongs to me.” He was preparing for a quick fight. He had seen them on the news battling that idiot Hulking, but they were nothing special as far as he was concerned. “I am not afraid of the 6 children playing hero. So, tell me what I want and I may grant you all a merciful death.”
“Teleport back now! Nezu is ordering you all back to UA immediately.” DECA said quickly to all of the Rangers.
"Maybe another time Overhaul. I am sure we will meet again someday." Izuku said as he took a step back to stand with his team. They teleported out in a variety of colors back to UA.
Overhaul watched the interlopers leave the alleyway. He let out a scream of rage at the loss of Eri. He cared nothing for the girl except the need for her blood to create his cure for the world. He was close to a breakthrough but needed more time before he could perfect it. Now he was back to square one and it would take him too much time to start over. He needed to find Eri and finish his cure. The future of the Yakuza depended on his success. He looked at the fools that failed him lying on the ground. He decided to start cleaning his house and get better members in the future. He walked towards the one closest to him. Overhaul reached down to touch him.
When it was all over the alleyway looked like a massacre from the top-rated R movie. Overhaul wiped his hands again with a disinfectant cloth and turned to walk away from his handy work. "I need a meeting with the Queen as soon as possible." Overhaul grumbled as they headed to another base to get his research restarted immediately. "Tell her I am willing to make another deal with her." As his lieutenant made the call Overhaul vowed vengeance for those who had just crossed him as he was so close to a breakthrough in his research it was frustrating. He had made a deal with the Queen before and it worked well for him despite the steep price. Now he needed to make another deal and this time he didn't care what it cost him. "Purge the site here of everything. Leave nothing behind, but ashes. Burn the whole building to the ground if you need to."
Izuku and the girls arrived back in Nezu's office still in their Ranger forms. After they powered down they were each hugged by Inko and Raphtalia who had been waiting in the office for their safe return. All Might had resumed his buffed appearance before they had all returned to keep his appearance a secret from the girls for now. Robo Knight went off to stand against the wall to observe them. They were all debriefed on what had happened from the Izuku first contact with Eri to their group encounter with Overhaul. Nezu was sure Izuku would give him a full detailed analysis during their class tomorrow.
"We will start an in-depth investigation into what Overhaul has been up to with that Batling Card that was in the Yakuza possession and what his plans were for young Eri that made her such a valuable part of his future plans." Nezu turned to the girls sitting beside Izuku. "I want to say I am proud of how well you girls did today. You have done a great service to the school and to the young girl you helped save from Overhaul." Nezu was beaming with pride at his student. He could tell that this year's group of students was very special.
"Thank you, sir," Ochako said bowing her head in respect towards the Principal. "Where is Eri right now?" Ochako really wanted to go check on Eri after seeing how scared she was earlier. She wanted to go hug the little unicorn and make her feel safe again.
Nezu gave her a sad smile. "She is currently with Miss Hatsume in the Nurses office with Recovery Girl. She starts to panic every time Recovery Girl tries to get close to try and take a look under her bandages." Nezu leaned back in his chair. "She keeps asking for Mr. Izuku and the nice ladies in the pink and red suits." He smirked as he watched Izuku, Momo, and Ochako flush a bit. “We are hoping they she may calm down enough to let Recover Girl at least change her bandages if you three are in the room with her.”
"Oh? Mr. Izuku. She wants to see her big hero." Setsuna teased him slightly as she moved close and threw her arm around his shoulder and rested her chin on the other. She knew he had a big heart and a lot of compassion. “Sounds like we need to go down there to check on the little unicorn right away. Eh Izu?”
"Well, I guess that makes sense." Kyoka chimed into the conversation. "He was the first to find her and did get her back here safely." She started twirling one of her jacks thinking about Eri. Kyoka had another thought "So what is the story with the red egg she was clutching to her chest?"
Izuku noticed that everyone was looking at him. "Well, that is Fire Heart," Izuku told them the story behind him and even had DECA patch in archive video records of the large metal dragon in action. "Last I knew he was still hibernating waiting for the proper time for his return." Izuku looked around to see they were all looking at him incredulously.
Setsuna blinked a few times "So you are telling me that a sentient magical fire breathing dragon summoned its self out of the Command Center to protect little Eri." She reached up and pinched her cheek before shaking her head. "Nope, not a dream. What is my life anymore?"
Momo leaned back and crossed her arms. "I would like to go see Eri and check on her as well." She was glad to hear that she was asked for. "I would also like to examine the egg if Eri is ok with it." She was very curious about the egg, but she was not about to upset a scared child.
“Then it is settled then. You all can head down to see Young Eri while I finish talking to All Might and Robo Knight.” Nezu said dismissing the children. “Izuku I will see you tomorrow during our class time to go over everything with you.” Nezu decided that it was time for them to accelerate their plans even further.
Izuku nodded to his mentor. “I look forward to it sir.” He looked over to his Mother and Raphtalia. “Are you two wanting to come with us?” He asked as he was heading for the door.
Inko nodded to her son. “I need to get back to the Nurses Office anyway and Raphtalia had school work that needs to be looked over as well.” Inko was wanted to go see this girl for herself and get the paperwork started to save another scared child from the foster system.
Raphtalia started pouting. “I want to see her too. I want to see my little sister.” She crossed her arm and her tail was swinging back and forth quickly. “I’ve been a good girl with my school work. I want to talk with my new sister please?” She started making puppy dog eyes.
Izuku started choking on air. "Wait your little sister?" Izuku looked at his daughter with a very confused look on his face.
Raphtalia nodded quickly. “Yeah! Papa saved me and adopted me. You saved her too, so I get to be a big sister now.” It was laid out in very simple logic that made sense to the young tanuki.
Inko started to chuckle at her granddaughter’s logic. The others girls laughed a bit at Izuku expense.
"Well, it looks like you are a father of two now Izuku," Momo said covering her mouth to hide her smile at his surprise. "Looks like Raphtalia has decided on it for you."
"Well, I can see it. He is really good with Raphtalia and she seemed a lot happier since coming to be a part of the Midoriya family." Kyoko added as she was smirking at the scene unfolding in front of her.
Setsuna smirked at Izuku. “Well Eri is adorable and Raphtalia is so freaking adorable as well. Where do you keep finding them Izu?” She separated her hands to mess with his fluffy ponytail.
Izuku playfully rolled his eyes at her “It must be my secret quirk to attraction adorable and cute things to me.” He looked at his girlfriends with a smile. “I mean I did attract all you adorable and cute girls to me somehow.” He was doing his best not to blush at his flirting.
Ochako blush almost went atomic before she turned to the other girl's mumbling. "The worst part is I can't tell if he did that on purpose or if he's accidentally flirting with us again."
Kyoka nodded as she blushed as well. “I can’t tell, but he is getting better at it either way.” She started doing her nervous tic of tapper the jack together.
"Ok, that was a good one." Setsuna had to admit.
Momo cleared her throat a light blush on her cheeks. "Let's get going to see Eri." Momo gestured for them to start walking to change the subject quickly.
Inko walked behind them as she watched her son reach down to pick up Raphtalia who was still trying to get Izuku to say Eri was her new little sister. She watched her son as his resolve was starting to wane ever so slightly. She knew her son had a good heart and was sure she would be getting another granddaughter very soon.
While Izuku and the others were heading to check up on Eri. Nezu was having a serious discussion in his office. “Did the detective find anything at the scene Toshinori?” He asked as he watch the #1 Hero hang up the phone with a solemn expression on his face. “That bad?”
Toshinori nodded his head. "Yes. Naomasa arrived with a dozen officers at the location I sent him." He leaned back in his chair and pinched the bridge of his nose. "He said it was like a scene from a horror movie in the alleyway. Blood everywhere and they have to wait for DNA testing to come back to know who was in the alley." Toshinori opened up a few pictures he was sent. Several builds were burning as well. Backdraft and few other heroes are battling the fires as we speak."
Nezu's face grew serious. "He punished them for letting little Eri escape from his clutches," Nezu said as he folded his hand in front of him. "He is cleaning house now."
Toshinori nodded to the Principal. “That is what I am thinking as well sir. We may want to increase our security on campus just in case he finds out she is here and comes to try and take her back.” Toshinori was confident he would be able to take Overhaul in a fight, but he was sure that Overhaul would cause a lot of death in destruction in the process. He wanted to avoid dragging any students into that kind of confrontation with Overhaul if it was possible.
Nezu smiled at the old pro. “I would feel a great swell of pity for anyone who comes to my school looking for trouble or to try taking that little girl away from Izuku Midoriya and his family." Nezu knew that Izuku was a kind soul, but he would be a formidable opponent when it comes to anyone who would cause harm to his family. His family would respond just as fiercely as he would. "Robo Knight, would you be interested in helping out around the Campus here protecting the students unless you are called away on other business?" Nezu looked to the robotic knight standing against his wall.
“I would be honored to help protect your student sir.” Robo Knight said with a nod of his head before moving to stand in front of Nezu. “I have a few recommendations to make for additional security personnel that may be of service to help keep the students safe."
Nezu leaned back in his chair with a large smile on his face. "I would like to hear your suggestions, Robo Knight." He tapped a button on his desk. "DECA I believe we will require your services as well."
"How may I be of service Nezu?" DECA asked from the speaker at the desk.
Toshinori was not sure about the smile on the Principals face, but he knew more chaos was about to come to the UA campus. He almost felt sorry for anyone wanting to mess with the school or Nezu's personal student. Almost anyway.
Izuku and the other arrived outside the office a short time later. It was decided that Izuku, Ochako, and Momo would enter first and if she felt comfortable have the other come into the room. Raphtalia frown at this, but after Setsuna took her for Izuku she was content to for the time being.
Izuku knocked gently on the door. “Mei. It’s Izuku.” He waited for a moment.
“Come on in Zuzu.” Came Mei muffled reply.
Izuku slowly entered the room and Momo close the door behind her. The room had three beds with curtains for each bed. The last bed curtain was partly pulled to block the view of the bed. Izuku moved very slowly around the curtain and watched as Eri seemed to relax at the sight of him. "Hey, Eri I came here just like I promised." He looked over to see Mei was sitting in a chair near the bed. "Thank you for getting her back safely Mei."
“Oh, it was no problem Zuzu. Glad I was able to help you guys out.” Mei smiled. Had a small notebook in her hand and pencil sketching something out. “I may not be much of a fighter, but I would help you guys out again wherever I can.”
"It was very much appreciated for your assistance Mei," Momo said smiling at the tech genius. "You will have to fill us in later on when you got Morpher." Momo moved to Izuku's left shoulder and looked at the little unicorn. "Hey, Eri. I heard you wanted to see Izuku, Ochako, and myself."
Ochako mirror Momo's action and moved behind Izuku's other shoulder. "Hey, Eri," Ochako said waving at her. "I wanted to come to see how you were doing." She liked how the girls' eyes lit up at them being there.
Izuku pointed to the bed. “Can we sit down here with you?” When she gave him a nod Izuku took a seat on the edge of the bed. Ochako took a chair next to her. Momo sat on the other side of the bed close to Mei. “Are you thirsty or hungry?” he asked her wanting to ease her into talking.
Eri seemed to think for a moment before asking. “C-can I have an apple please?”
Izuku smiled at her request. “I am sure we can find some apples for you.” Izuku got up to find some when Mei stood up gesturing for him to stay seated.
“I’ll ask if the nurse has one. Stay with her.” Mei waved at Eri. “Be right back.” She disappeared around the curtain towards the private office.
The next few minutes were the trio talked with Eri about simple things to try and get her a bit more comfortable with all of them. When Mei came back with a plate of sliced apples the girl's eyes sparkled with happiness. Mei also places a glass of water on the table next to her bed. Eri happily munched on the apples practically inhaling them.
"I can see your favorite food is apples," Izuku said with a slight chuckle. "How about in a bit we will get you some more food and apples for dessert ok?" He wanted to get her to eat a bit of real food with apples being a bonus in the end.
"Ok, Mr. Izuku," Eri said taking another sip of her water.
Izuku smiled at her, “You can just call me Izuku if you want.”
"Eri, sweetheart," Momo said giving her a very gentle smile. "We heard you got upset when the nurse came to check up on you. Is there a reason why?" Momo had placed her open hand near the girl offering it to her if she wanted to hold it.
Eri seemed to retreat a bit in the bed. "She was wearing a white coat as h-he does." Eri hugged the egg slightly as she spoke. "I was afraid she was going to hurt me." Eri closed her eyes at thinking about her time with Kai.
"Oh, Eri," Ochako said slowly and gently patting the girl's head. Eri seemed to stiffen for a moment before leaning into her hand. "She is very nice. She would never purposely hurt you." Ochako was restraining herself from pulling the girl into a big hug too soon. "How about we sit in here with you as she changes your bandages ok?"
Eri nodded and said very softly. “Ok.”
Izuku went and got Recovery Girl telling the white coat had been what scared her earlier. She left her coat in the room and came back into the room with a tray of bandages and tape. "Ok dearie. I and going to take these off nice and slow ok?" Recovery girl work had asked Momo to scoot back slightly for her to work. Mei had taken a standing position near the curtain giving the small girl a thumbs up in support.
Recovery Girl was true to her word as she slowly took her bandages off. She noticed the bandages went to her shoulder. The more bandages she removed the more her scars became visible. Momo, Ochako, and Izuku looked horrified to see the scars on her arms. Her legs were not any better as they had even more scars on them. Mei covered her mouth and stepped back to catch her breath. Eri never looked up the entire time. Her eyes remained on the bed in front of her. "Thank you, Eri for letting me remove them." Recover Girl said gently. She took some water and gently cleaned each limb very carefully and was about to put on new bandages when Izuku stopped her.
"Eri can you look at me please?" Izuku asked her very gently taking her small hand into his. When she looked up at him with sad eyes he held her hand a bit tighter. "If I had a way to get rid of all of your scars would you like me to do that for you?" His voice was soft but on the edge of breaking.
Eri's eyes went large and she gasped. "R-R-Really?" She gripped his hand tightly. She saw him nod his head yes to her question. "Yes, please make them go away!” She said a bit loud as she wanted all the scars caused by Kai off of her.
Izuku tapped his watch. “DECA can you teleport be the KO-35 Med-kit and two vials of the KO-35 SR cream please?”
A moment later she responded. "Affirmative Izuku teleporting requested items in now," DECA responded over his communicator.
Eri looked amazed when a small red box and two metal containers appeared at the foot of her bed. "Who was that Mr.-I mean Izuku?” Eri asked looking around for where the voice came from.
Izuku smiled at her. "That was DECA. She is a friend and I will introduce you to her someday." Izuku reached over and grabbed everything on the foot of the bed. He opened the case and took out a silver item the size and shape of a pen. He tapped a button on the side of it and a tiny blue ball formed at the tip. He thumbed it off before opening one of the metal containers to have a white lotion-like substance that gave off a flowery scent. He took a small dab of the SR cream and wiped it onto one of her scars. Then he grabbed took the silver cylinder and turned it back on. "This may feel a little cold for a few seconds ok?" Izuku waited for her to nod and touched the blue sphere against the cream for the length of the scar before pulling it back. He set it back down and took a small cloth from the kit and wiped away the cream to reveal the scar was completely gone.
Everyone in the room gasped in surprise to see the scar completely gone. Eri ran a finger over her now perfectly smooth skin. "Would you like me to continue?" Izuku asked her waiting for her response. She nodded even faster than before. "OK, then I will have Momo put the cream on, and after I treated each scar with my applicator would it be ok to have Ochako wipe off the excess?"
“OK!” Eri said quickly
Izuku, Ochako, and Momo went to work and within about 20 minutes every single scar on her arms and legs were gone. The three of them watched with a smile as Eri ran her hands over the now scar-free arms and legs. "Eri, I am going to set outside the curtain for a few minutes so Momo and Ochako look for any more scars ok?"
"Ok Izuku," Eri said looked at the two girls. "Thank you for doing the Mo-Mo and Ocha-ko." She tried to pronounce their names for the first time. Both girls giggled at her attempts and told her the proper way to say their names.
Izuku stepped around the corner and started to cry quietly as possible from what he had seen on Eri’s arms and legs. Mei wrapped him in a hug immediately and whispered words of comfort in his ear. Izuku clung to her as a lifeline as he tried to calm down. It was about 10 minutes before they called him back behind the curtain. Momo and Ochako looked just as upset about what was under her gown. The only one who seemed happy at the moment was Eri. She wasn’t smiling, but her eyes were much brighter.
As soon as Eri saw him she launched into his chest crying and thanking him over and over again. Izuku hugged her tight to his chest and comforted her. Momo and Ochako came over to join in on the hug. Mei hesitated for a minute before Izuku gestured for her to join in.
After she calmed down a bit Izuku asked Momo to make her a change of clothes to get her out of the ratty old gown. Momo created a simple white shirt and blue pants. Izuku stepped away long enough for her to get dressed. After returning again he asked her. "Eri I have a few people outside that would like to meet you would you be ok with it." Izuku was wanted her to set the pace of people coming into her room.
"Are they nice?" Eri asked as she climbed back onto her bed and started to hug the egg again.
Izuku walked over and patted her head. “Yes, I know all of them and one of them is my mom, who is extremely nice.” He watched her have a bit of a sad look in her eyes when he mentioned his mom. “They are all nice and one of them is your age.” He was hoping Raphtalia would be on her best behavior.
Eri seemed to think for a few minutes. “O-Ok if you say they are nice then that is ok.” Eri hugged her egg a bit.
"OK. If you feel uncomfortable at any point let me know." Izuku watched her nod her head. "Hey, Kyoka you can bring everyone in now, just come in slowly." He knew she had been listening in just in case. A few moments later the door opened and in came Setsuna, Kyoka, Raphtalia, and Inko. Kyoko made beeline for him and pulled him into a hug. He returned the hug with a thanks. He knew she had heard him crying with Mei. Inko moved around the curtain keeping her distance giving Eri a wave.
Raphtalia had been on Setsuna's hip looking at Eri until she wiggled enough to get down on the floor and walked over to Eri.
"Hi, My name is Raphtalia." The Tanuki said with a big smile on her face. "You must be Eri right?" She waved at the unicorn.
“Y-yeah my name is Eri.” She answered a little shyly. “Nice to meet to Rapt-, Raptili.” Eri tried to pronounce it a few times before she was stopped by the other girl.
"How about you call me Raph for now?" Raphtalia suggested after watching Eri struggle with her name.
Eri nodded at that. "Ok, Raph." She loosened her grip on the egg a bit as she got a bit more comfortable with the other girl. For a few moments, both looked at each other mirroring the other's actions. Eventually, Raphtalia climbed on the bed and sat across from and asked for her backpack. When Inko handed it to her she took out a box of crayons and a few coloring books and offered to share them with Eri.
Eri was not sure what to do at first until she watched Raphtalia start to color a picture in the book. Raphtalia told her to use whatever colors she wanted and showed her what she was had colored so far. Eventually, the two of them were sitting sit by side with the egg in between them. The longer they talked and colored together the more Eri relaxed.
Izuku moved back to fill in Setsuna, Kyoka, and Inko about what they had witnessed during their time with Eri and how many scars she had over her body. Recovery Girl added in that those cuts were made by someone with surgical skills and this had been going on for quite some time. She told them she had taken pictures discreetly of Eri scars for her official report on the girl's treatment.
Setsuna was trying to take controlled breaths to calm herself before she exploded and scared the girl. She wanted nothing more than to have 5 minutes with the guy in a locked room and a sock full of batteries.
Kyoka was of two emotions at the moment. Anger at Overhaul for doing that to Eri and sadness for what the poor girl had gone through that much for who knows how long. She now understood why her boyfriend had broken down and cried a little while ago.
Inko pulled her son into a tight hug and kissed his forehead. She knew the world was an ugly place, but she hoped there would be a few more years at least before Izuku would have to see something like that. After letting him go she moved over and hugged Mei who seemed to be struggling with what she had seen as well. Inko grabbed her phone and sent a message to Nezu. Her decision was made.
Eventually, the two of them were talking when Raphtalia called out to Izuku. "Hey, Papa. Is Eri coming home with us tonight?" She started giving him the puppy dog eyes to get her way.
Izuku gave his daughter a shrug. “I am not sure about that Raphtalia. That would be up to your Grandma and Nezu if she can leave the campus.” Izuku pointed over to Inko.
Eri looked on confused at Izuku and Raphtalia. “What’s a Papa?”
“Oh, a Papa is someone who takes care of you and makes you smile.” Raphtalia smiled brightly as she pointed to Izuku. “Papa takes care of me with Grandma and I got Mama’s and Aunties to take care of me now too.”
"I don't remember my Papa," Eri said sadly. "I think I had a Mama, but she said I was cursed." Eri started to withdraw a bit from the group.
“What is that sweetie?” Ochako asked. “You seem like an adorable little unicorn to me.” She moved close and pulled the young girl into a gentle hug.
“Everyone says my quirk is a curse. I make things and people disappear.” Eri said quietly. She hugged Ochako tighter as she looked down at the bed again.
Izuku moved close and sat on the bed close to Ochako and took a finger to lift her chin to look at his face. "I don't know what your quirk is at the moment, but I am sure it is a gift that makes you special." Izuku ran his fingers through her hair like had done with Raphtalia in the past. "Your quirk is part of you." Izuku watched her look in awe of him. "I will help you with your Quirk when you are ready. Ok?"
“Do you promise?” Eri asked her eyes begin him to say yes.
Izuku leaned down and hugged her. “I promise Eri.” He leaned back a bit. “When you are ready tell me and we will get started together.”
"Ok," Eri said starting to come back out of her shell again.
Izuku looked back at Mei. "Do you have one of the pendants ready to go yet?" Izuku and Mei had been working on something for Raphtalia just in case her quirk started growing faster than she could control it.
Mei rolled her eyes at him and patted a few of her pockets before she pulled something out of her pocket. “Please that was child’s play considering the variety of projects I am working on.” She tossed it to Izuku who snatched it out of the air. “I was going to bring it up to have Raphtalia try it out, but I think I can make a few spares later.”
Izuku held a simple silver pendant in front of Eri. “Until you are ready. As long as you wear this pendant it will suppress your Quirk.” He slowly reached over and placed it around her neck. It hung down to the middle of her chest.
Eri looked at the pendant with awe. “I won’t make things disappear?” she asked clutching the pendant in her hands.
“No making things disappear. The pendant will suppress it.” Izuku reassured Eri as she latched onto Ochako crying slightly.
Ochako gave her a tight hug as Izuku mirrored her in giving her a tight hug from the other side. They stay that way for a few minutes until Eri calmed down. “It’s ok sweetie. We are all here for you.”
The room was starting to fall into silence as everyone was smiling at the sight in front of them. Raphtalia was tired of all the serious talk. "Hey stop hogging my little sister!" She called out as pulled Eri out of their grasps and into her arms hugging her side.
“Sister?” Eri asked looking at Raphtalia curiously
Raphtalia nodded at her. "Yep! I got rescued by Papa first so I am the big sister and that makes you MY little sister." She made sure to emphasize the word my. She puffed out her chest with pride.
Izuku's facepalmed at his daughters’ words. “Raphtalia.” The rest of the room started snickering at the scene in front of them. The room froze when they hear a loud growl from Eri. When everyone turned to look at her.
Eri flushed with embarrassment clutching her stomach. “I-I’m sorry.”
Momo moved over and gently patted the girl's lap. "It's ok sweetie. There is nothing wrong with being hungry." Momo looked at her watch noting it was getting late in the day. "How about we go to the cafeteria and have Lunch Rush fix you something to eat?"
Recovery Girl nodded her head. “I think a hot meal would do her some good. How about tomorrow morning during homeroom I will give her a checkup with Mr. Midoriya here to keep her calm.” She decided that the girl needed a break after having her scars removed.
Inko got an idea on how to kill a few birds with one stone. "Well, Raphtalia needs a checkup as well. That way she can help keep her 'little sister' company." Inko knew she was being underhanded with that tactic, but as a parent, she knew sometimes it was needed. 'Now I just need to get one more bird.' She thought to herself.
"Fine." Raphtalia grimaced. "I'll do it with Eri."
Izuku noted his daughter's unhappiness about having a medical checkup and decided to bite the bullet. He was going to be there anyway for Eri. "How about all 3 of us get a checkup together with Recovery Girl?"
Inko smirked. ‘Hook, Line and Sinker.’
After getting the next day's plans taken care of Inko decided to stay behind and go over some paperwork with Recovery Girl. She told them to go have a good meal and come back afterward. Eri said she was a bit cold and needed some shoes. Raphtalia went to grab a spare pair of her shoes from the bag Inko brought with them. Then she grabbed her extra hoodie as well. No one was surprised to see Raphtalia wear her Mystic red hoodie and gave Eri the Green Ranger Hoodie to wear. Ochako and Momo could not suppress their squeal at the adorable site and took a few quick pictures. Mei, Setsuna, and Kyoka smiled at the adorable sight but were able to control themselves.
Inko had convinced Eri to leave Fireheart’s egg with her for safekeeping. They assured her it would be here in the office after she had something to eat.
After getting both girls taken care of they headed towards the cafeteria. Eri shyly asked for Momo to carry her. Momo scooped her up without a moment's hesitation to carry her on her hip. Eri waved at Ochako who moved closer to her. Raphtalia asked Setsuna to carry her. Setsuna picked her up and set her on her shoulders. Izuku walked in between Mei and Kyoka. Izuku couldn't help but smile at the little family walking together. He realized that he already thought of the girl as family. He was not going to do anything about it today besides make sure they can take her home for the night. He wanted Eri to set the pace. They were almost to the cafeteria when he heard someone exclaim behind him.
“OMG! Another cutie!”
“OMG!
“CHIBI!”
Izuku closed his eyes. He knew that one of the voices belonged to Mina. He turned around and looked back to see Mina, Toru, Pony, Kirishima, Fumikage, Tsu, Tetsutetsu, Ibara, Hitoshi, Kaminari, and Itsuka looking at them with various expressions on their faces from confusion to excitement.
“Oh, hey guys," Izuku said moving in front of Eri unsure how she would react to new people. "How was the rest of battle training for class 1-B? Anything exciting happen after we left?"
Mina shook her head at him. "Oh no, you're not changing the subject. First, you leave after beating the blonde douche-bag number two after being asked there by the Principal." Mina flipped out a finger. "Then those four get called out to the principal's office taking the cutie with them." She ticked off another finger. "Now you have a new cutie with you. Come on spill!" Mina begged them ticking off another finger.
Izuku looked back at his girlfriends that gave him a shrug. “Alright follow up to the cafeteria and I will fill you guys in as best I can, but here are the ground rules.”
After Izuku laid down the law about upsetting Eri and not to rush towards her or hug her unless she said it was ok. Everyone went to the largest table to sit down. Ochako went and got something simple for Raphtalia and Eri. Izuku had pulled Fumikage aside telling him Eri may be a bit afraid since he resembled the bird mask and not to take it personally. Fumikage understood and after hearing she liked apples from Izuku went to get a couple. After Ochako got the trays of food she put Eri in between her and Momo. Raphtalia went over to eat with Setsuna and Mei. Kyoka sat near Izuku and had an ear jack aimed near Eri just in case. Pony, Toru, and Mina sat close to Eri and Raphtalia waving at them. While the other filled in around the table.
"I cannot tell you everything at the moment, but I can tell you the basics for right now," Izuku said. He told them about being called away on Ranger business. While he was out he found Eri in need of help. He called the others to help him get her to safety. He told them that she had been mistreated by bad people and brought her back to UA. He did not mention her scars or her quirk since he wanted Eri to come to terms with those first.
Even when he gave them the cliff notes it had a profound effect on the group. Hitoshi, Kaminari, Kirishima, and Tetsutetsu were gripping their fists in anger. Fumikage was frowning as he was whispering something with Dark Shadow. Ibara was in the midst of a prayer for the poor girl as she clutched a rosary in her hands. Itsuka was taking nice and easy breaths to prevent herself from accidentally breaking the table as she gripped it very tightly. Mina, Toru, and Pony were in tears for the poor girl and it took them a few minutes to calm themselves.
Eri had been eating her first hot meal in a long time. It was simple beef rice, but to her, it was the best meal ever. She had finished her plate when looked for an apple for dessert. She was almost disappointed when Fumikage called down to her.
"Hey, Eri. I have a spare apple here if you want one?" Fumikage said softly as he gave her a gentle smile and held the apple in front of him to show it to her. Fumi and Dark Shadow decided that they would let her make the first move.
Eri seemed to hesitate at first almost mistaking him for of the men from the bad place. But he had kept his distance and was offering her an apple. Normal they would toss them at her. She nodded her head slowly and watched as he handed it down the table to her making sure not to make any sudden moves. She took a bit of the apple and after she swallowed. “Thank you, Mr.,”
"Just call me Fumi," Fumikage replied to her smiling a bit more. Dark Shadow watched her take a bit of the apple.
"Ok, that was adorable to watch Fumi~.” Mina teased the normally brooding crow. She grinned even more then Fumikage sent her an annoyed glare.
Pony looked over at Eri. "Eri can I please hug you?" She spoke slowly in Japanese making sure not to mix up the words. She made the universal gesture for a hug. She was looking over at her friends to make sure she was speaking properly. "One horn buddy to another?" Pony gestured towards the horns on her head.
Eri looked at Ochako and Momo for what to do. When they gave her a nod that it was ok. Eri looked back to Pony “Yes a hug would be ok.” Eri stood up from her seat waited for Pony to come around slowly and give her a small hug.
"Thank you, Eri." Pony said before smiling at her. "If need hug I am always available." She missed a few words near the end.
"Eri can I hug you too?" Mina said a bit more subdued than her normal self. When Eri gave her permission, Mina follow Pony’s example of moving slowly and keeping the hug small. “Pony is right. Us horn buddies need to stick together.”
Toru asked soon after and when Eri gave her permission. "If you ever need a hug Eri I am always available to do so too." Toru knew what it was like to need a hug.
"Hey, I want hugs too!" Raphtalia called out jumping up rushing to Mina, Toru, and Pony. "I want hugs from you guys now." She opened her arms waiting for them. The trio giggled and quickly hugged the girl making her squeal with delight."
Izuku chuckled at his daughter's antics. "Leave it to Raphtalia to tame people with her cuteness." He watched them fawn over the two girls. It made him smile to see them happy. Raphtalia was all smiles. Eri had yet to smile, but she was relaxing and had a look of awe on her face. "I guess when I get home tonight I will have to see if any of Raphtalia's clothes will fit Eri."
Mina stopped what she was doing and looked at Izuku. "Sounds like you need a shopping trip for Eri." She started to look at the other girls to see if they were on board with that idea. "Why don't we all go shopping after school?"
“Yeah! That sounds like a great idea!” Toru said getting excited that about going shopping with the cuties. “
Pony nodded along "I would like to go with." Pony said before switching to English. “I would like to help shop for Eri.” Pony was looking forward to doing some with her new friends.
"I don't know," Izuku said. "Let me message my mom and see what she thinks." Izuku sent a message to his mother asking if Eri was coming home with them and that his classmates were wanting to take Eri cloth shopping. He was about to put his phone away when his mother sent him a message back.
I talked with Nezu. We have custody of Eri at this time and I think it would be a good idea to get Eri some clothing for now. When we have full custody, we can shop for other things for her. Go get what Eri needs. Text me when you are on your way home.
Oh, before I forget Rumi, Ryuko, and Yu are going to meet you at the mall just in case someone comes after Eri.
Let Eri know I will bring her egg home with me.
Love you!
"Well, Mom says we have custody of Eri for now and that a trip to the mall for clothes shopping would not be a bad idea. 3 of my sisters will be there to make sure no one gives as any trouble and to bring her back to our apartment." Izuku told them as he put his phone away. He heard Raphtalia cheer that Eri was coming home with them. "Who is coming with us?"
The other guys in the group heard the word shopping and they each started to bow out as quickly as possible.
Kirishima bowed out saying he had some training to get done tonight and left to head home. Waved at Eri before moving to the door in a quick pack.
Tetsutetsu said he had to get home to train as well and would see Pony later. He hurried towards the door at a brisk pace.
Kaminari said he had to go straight home to help his mom with something and would not be able to go. He left quickly as well
Fumikage had to get home for training with his dad. He bowed towards them and started walking to the door. Dark Shadow was whispering for him to walk faster.
Tsu had to go pick up her siblings from school but told them another time she would love to tag along.
Hitoshi said he had to get back to the apartment to meet his girlfriend after school. He bowed out walking towards the door like a normal person.
Ibara and Itsuka already had plans for after school today and had to bow out as well. Both said another time they would love to go.
Mina, Toru, and Pony quickly agreed to go shopping. Izuku and his girlfriends were all set to go when Mei's phone started to ring. "Yeah be righter there. Bye." Mei put away her phone. "Sorry, girls I gotta head down to the Support room. I am meeting Melissa Shield down there to work on some new project of hers."
Izuku nodded at her. He knew she would not pass up a chance to build something with Melissa's background of inventing by going shopping. "Ok go have some fun Mei and please don't blow anything up."
Mei waved it off as she headed off. “I make no promises Zuzu.”
Izuku shook his head. “Alright let me go grab a quick shower and get changed and we can head off.” Izuku looked over at Raphtalia. “I will be right back please behave.” He looked over at Eri. “I will be right back. Will you be ok to stay with them?”
Eri moved a bit closer to Momo and Ochako before nodding. “I’ll be ok. Hurry back please.”
Izuku smiled at her and headed off to get changed as fast as possible. Izuku hurried through a shower and changed before heading back to meet back up with the girls. When he got back it was time for the ride to arrive for the mall. As they all got into the car Izuku recognized the driver from before who counted the girls climbing into the car.
"Kid you do realize you are going to the mall with 7 teenagers and 2 little girls. I thought you learned your lesson from the last time you went shopping." The driver joked with him.
Izuku snorted. "3 of my sisters are meeting us there as well," Izuku said moving to get in the car. "I guess I am a glutton for punishment." Before getting in the car.
The driver closed the door and shook his head. “That is a very brave or foolish boy.”
The ride over was interesting with the addition of Mina and Toru. They were a ball of energy as they rode in the limo to the mall. Pony joined in on the fun when she started tickling Raphtalia that had her laughing. Eri seemed unsure what to do sitting in between Ochako and Momo. Momo pulled up a children's book on her phone and started reading to her. Ochako and Kyoka joined in with making some voices as they read. Izuku looked over to see Setsuna talking with Mina as she separated her hands and started to tickle Raphtalia with Pony. When they got to the mall they did not have to wait long for chaperones/bodyguards to arrive. They were waiting outside as they arrived. After several short introductions of Eri to his sisters Mina led the charge for clothes stating she had to be home soon. It was not as bad as the time they had taken Raphtalia shopping, but it was still a bit hectic as they tried to get everything done as fast as possible while making sure they got everything they need. Izuku only made two trips to the car and then they grabbed some dinner before they all had to be taken home. Izuku noted that by the end of the ride home that Toru and Pony seemed to messaging a lot on their phones. Before he could ask Eri started to ask him questions about his home.
After getting dropped off at his home. He got the girls and the bags inside without any problem. Inko was waiting for them as they came in. she helped get Eri's clothing sorted and in a shared drawer with Raphtalia's clothing. Soon it was time for them to get wound down for bed. Inko got them bathed and dressed in pajamas as Izuku got a few books to read for them. Inko and Izuku figured that Eri would have the same problems as Raphtalia did in the beginning of nightmares. Izuku made a pile of pillows and blankets on the floor of his bedroom large enough for the 3 of them. When it was time Izuku got both girls to lay down as he read them a few stories. Eri had Fireheart's egg within arm's reach. Before he finished with the second book both girls were curled against him on each side. His mother had been watching him from the doorway with a smile as he took care of them. She turned out the light and headed for bed herself. Izuku laid back gently as possible. He drifted off as sleep exhausted for the day's events. Eri woke up twice during the night from nightmares, but Izuku had been able to get her back to sleep quickly after she realized that she was still with Izuku. Raphtalia woke up one time when Eri did, but she went back to sleep when Eri went back to sleep.
While Izuku was getting the girls ready for bed a different conversation was going on.

Chapter Text
The following morning was busy for the Midoriya household. Izuku went on his morning run and got a quick workout in before coming back for a shower. Inko and Izuku got both girls up and ready for the day. He sent his girlfriends a quick message about him not being able to see them until lunch. They made it to UA without any issues and headed straight to the Nurses office. Recovery Girl was waiting for them to arrive so she could get started that morning with their physicals. Izuku went first to show Eri that there was nothing to be scared of. Izuku let her draw blood for labs as he gave Eri a smile showing her it was ok. Eri had moved slightly behind Inko when Recovery Girl picked up the needle from her tray. After getting a clean slate it was Raphtalia's turn to be examined. Izuku helped her up onto the exam table. He held her hand when it was her turn to have her blood drawn. Afterward, Recovery Girl gave her a cherry sucker for being a good girl. Eri had taken a bit longer to convince her it would be ok to let Recovery Girl examine her. Izuku sat beside her on the bed and held her hand while patting her head. They started with the blood draw and Eri was surprised with how little it hurt. Afterward gave her an apple sucker while she finished up her physical exam.
It was not a surprise when Izuku's results came back normal and nothing was out of the ordinary in his exam or results. Raphtalia was doing much better from her initial reports from the hospital on the day she was saved. She was only slightly underweight but was making great strides on reaching normal for her age. Eri's results were better than Recovery Girl thought they would be. Eri was underweight, but nothing proper nutrition and vitamins couldn't fix. When their exams were all over Izuku spent some time with the girls until it was time for him to head up to have his lesson with Nezu. Izuku hugged both girls before he had to leave.
As Izuku was walking toward the office he noticed that two people were coming out of Nezu's office. He recognized them as Mandalay and Pixie Bob from the Wild Wild Pussycats. “Hey what are you two doing here at UA?” Izuku asked as they got closer to him. Mandalay returned waved at him, but Pixie Bob quickly pulled him into a tight hug before releasing him.
"Hey, Izuku!" Pixie Bob said quickly. "Sorry, we can't talk about it right now." She seemed to be really happy about something and Izuku just assumed she was just in a good mood this morning.
“I can understand that. I am on my way to have my morning class with Nezu very soon.” Izuku pointed to the office. “I hope we see each other again so we can catch up a little bit.”
Mandalay smiled at him. “I am sure something can be worked out soon.” She gave him a knowing smile.
Pixie-Bob smirked at him. “You may get to see me much sooner than you think kiddo.” She patted his head and gave him a wink. “Oh, before I forget when you see Midnight can you tell I said hi.” She had a mischievous look on her face.
Izuku looked confused at Pixie-Bob before answering. "Uh, sure I have her class after I see Nezu later this morning," Izuku replied as started walking towards the office. “Later guys!” he called back as he walked closer to the office.
“Later Izuku!” They called back to him as they started to walk away to the main entrance.
Izuku came into the office to see a stack of files already sitting on his desk. "Hello, sir." Izuku took his normal spot across from his mentor and took out his notebooks and other papers for the day. "How has your morning been?"
Nezu smiled at him. "It has been quite pleasant for a change." Nezu slide a file in front of his student and gestured for him to open it. "We will be discussing your assessment of Overhaul and the other items that we need to look into later, but first can you please take a look at that file.”
Izuku nodded as he flipped open the file. Izuku scanned over it before returning a smile to Nezu. "The International Hero Commission has approved our new organization?" Izuku asked making sure he was reading correctly. When they submitted the request and ran the numbers together and figured it was a 50/50 shot of them getting approved. They both knew that this would ruffle a lot of feathers at HPSC when it was officially announced.
Nezu's smile only widened. "That is correct. Cementoss already has the foundation completed. Power Loader is putting the finishing touches on the electrical and other utilities. We are just waiting to give the request to DECA to teleport SPD Delta Base onto UA grounds and we are cleared to start hiring personnel to get SPD up and running ASAP.” Nezu opened a map of the campus and pointed to where the base would be located.
Izuku looked over everything and nodded along with his mentor. “Glad to hear we have gotten official approval for this. With the recent encounter with the Batlings, we may be needing the extra help sooner than we initially planned.” Izuku placed the file back onto the desk. He leaned over and handed Nezu his written report of yesterday’s incident. “I added everything that I could think of for this report sir.”
Nezu took the file before setting it on the desk in front of him. "Izuku, I have been working on something with DECA since your encounter with Hulking some time ago." Nezu's smile had faded as he grew serious. "We ran an analysis on the substances in the trigger that was used that day and we found a match in the Ranger Archives."
Izuku looked at his mentor in confusion. “What was the match to?”
"It was a match to Dark Spectre," Nezu said wanting to be completely honest with Izuku.
Izuku looked stunned at what he was just told. “How is that even possible. I mean that should be impossible to get that kind of match like that.” Izuku started thinking to himself as he started running things through his head. "So, we have Batlings and now possibly something related to Dark Spectre. Both are not from our universe that is starting to pop up since the Master Morpher came to me." Izuku was starting to worry about his friends and family.
Nezu nodded along with Izuku. “That begs the question did they come here with it or were they already here to before the Master Morpher arrived?” There were countless possibilities from what little information they had to work with at the moment. “Let us work on getting SPD up and running right now, but we will keep investigating those events at this time to see what we can find out.”
Izuku nodded. “Let’s get to work then.” Izuku picked up the file again. “So where should we start?”
The two of them dived into the paperwork and started sorting through different things. DECA would chime in to answer any questions that they needed clarification on. They planned to build an Academy and start looking for candidates and Instructors to staff it. They had started to look for a construction company to build some dormitories and office buildings. Power Loader and Cementoss would be able to assist them, but they were already busy with several other projects on the UA campus. Izuku had recommended a construction company that had Nezu smiling. Nezu also informed him that the Yaoyorozu Corporation would be assisting them in their Personnel hiring process and would extend the contracts to the selected Construction company.
They agreed to move the Command Center onto the campus after they got Delta Base established and operational. They decided to have it located below Delta Base for security purposes and that still allowed for the Rangers access to when needed. Nezu had an impressive list of candidates for them already started from various sources. They also discussed the new security team that Nezu and Robo Knight had worked to put together. Izuku was impressed and was interested to see how the school would react to them. He planned to introduce them to the school during an assemble on Monday.
Eventually, their time came to an end and Izuku had to head to his next class of the morning before lunch. Nezu told him to have a good day and they would start fresh in the morning. "Oh, and Izuku you can tell your family and friends what we discussed here today. I am sure Miss. Uraraka would like to hear the good news from you personally."
"Thank you, sir!" Izuku replied as he headed off to his next class of the day.
Izuku made it to class early enough to talk with his sister. He was confused when he passed on Pixie-Bob's request of saying hi to her that she looked a bit flustered. She went to work on a few papers before class started trying to get control of her blush. He heard her mutter “Dammit Ryu.” He shrugged before heading to his desk.
He watched as the students of 1-A started to file into the room for class. He watched as Momo looked happy and Ochako looked a bit shocked, but happy as well. Kyoka had a smirk on her face. He noticed that Ida was frowning a bit when he entered the room. He waved at his friends as they filed in. He was thrown a bit when Toru came over to hug him and Mina waved at him with a wink as she headed to her desk. Izuku looked over at his girlfriends with a look of confusion. Ochako mouthed the words ‘we will explain later.’ Izuku nodded his head as he got his things out for his bag for their lesson.
When it was time for lunch Izuku headed to the table to find his friends already filling up the table. Kirishima walked towards the table with Melissa in tow. "Hey, are you guys ok with Melissa joining our table?" He asked pointing to his friend standing beside him. Melissa gave them a shy wave as he held her tray to her chest.
"Sure thing, you're more than welcomed to join us," Izuku said gesturing for her to take a seat with them. Everybody made enough to make room for her to join them.
Melissa nodded and smiled. “Thank you.” She moved to sit near Kirishima. “I wanted to join you guys yesterday, but was a little nervous to come over.” She flushed a bit at admitting she had been nervous.
Momo gave her a kind smile. “It ok, making new friends can be a bit nerve-wracking at first.” Momo reached over with her hand. “I know we are already classmates, but welcome to our table Melissa.”
Melissa shook her hand "Thanks." She started to eat as the others started to follow suit. After a few minutes of them eating they started to make small talk.
“So, anything interested happen in either homeroom today?” Izuku asked as he looked around the table. Watching smiles start popping up at the table.
"Well, it was a bit of review on the battle trials before Mr. Aizawa had us vote for who would be the Class President for our class," Ochako said taking a bite of her meal.
“We did that for 1-B today as well.” Itsuka chimed in after she set her fork down on her tray. “He selected the top candidates from the class and had us vote on them.”
Kyoka snorted at this. “Our teacher had us figure it out ourselves.” She munched on her lunch. “It took us almost 15 minutes just to get us voting on ourselves.”
Izuku looked surprised. “Who won the elections?” He looked at his classmates at the table.
"I won Class President with 5 votes," Momo said smiling as she sat upa bit straighter.
"I Won Vice-President with 3 votes," Ochako said looked a bit embarrassed. She started rubbing the back of her head.
"I won Class President in 1-B," Itsuka said matching Momo's smile of pride.
Setsuna had just taken a bit of her lunch and had to swallow quickly before speaking. "sorry. I won Vice-President." She gave her friends a thumbs up.
Kyoka started twirling her jack. “I bowed out as I have no interest in a class office.” She took a sip of her drink. “I will let you guys do all that boring stuff while I have fun playing or listening to music.”
Izuku smiled. “Not everyone is interested in that kind of stuff.” Izuku finished his meal and pushed his tray away. “I can’t take a position like that since I am the Principals personal student and I am sure that I would have declined it if I was offered the job anyway.”
The entire table just looked at him like he had just said something crazy. It took the table a few minutes before anyone could find their voice.
“Serious bro?” Kirishima asked more surprised than anything else.
Fumikage looked Izuku over before adding his opinion. "You seem like a fine leader from what I have seen so far. I must ask why you would decline something like that?" Dark Shadow appeared above Fumikage shoulder nodding his head in agreement.
Izuku took a deep breath before answering them. "Well, I have enough going on right now to keep me busy with Raphtalia and Eri." Izuku could see they were not convinced. "I think that Momo, Itsuka, Ochako, and Setsuna will do an amazing job of leading their respective classes. I will help them out however I can." Izuku went back to looking around the table to try and change the subject.
“Before I forget how is Eri doing?” Mina asked. She wanted to check to see how her little horn buddy was doing.
Izuku smiled. “She is doing ok. Still a bit skittish, but Recovery Girl put her on a diet and vitamins that should have her back to normal in no time.”
“That is great to hear!” Toru chimed in as pumped her arm in excitement.
“I am happy to hear that," Hitoshi said leaning on his hands.
“Yes, Glad to hear she is doing well.” Pony added carefully to make sure she used all the proper words in Japanese.
They started to talk about what they thought the next heroics course was going to be. They all thought it may be a different battle training exercise or they would possibly be learning how to do rescue operations.
Melissa looked over at Izuku. "Hey Izuku, I am really curious about your support item. How does it work?" She had been dying to ask him questions about it. "I watched you use those giant mechs in the news. How did you control them?" She had to stop herself from asking a ton of questions.
Izuku chuckled. "Well, my support item as you call it is my Morpher." He pulled said device out of his pocket and held it out in his hand for the table to see. Everyone at the table minus his girlfriends looked at the device with curiosity.
"Wait, that doesn't look like what you used during our battle trial," Mina said thinking back to when Izuku had saved them.
"Yeah it was on your wrist and it didn't look like that," Toru added leaning her body forward for a closer look.
The table agreed that it looked different from when he used it during the assessment test as well.
Izuku nodded, "Yes I can change it to a different Morpher depending on my needs." He changed to a few different Morpher before turning back to its default.
“So how did they get their Morphers?” Kirishima asked pointing to the girls.
Izuku looked at them and when they nodded he spoke. "Well, I have what is called the Master Morpher that allows me access to a variety of Rangers. They each have standard Morpher that allow them to change to a specific Ranger." He looked at everyone at the table before he continued. "They were matched to each Morpher by a computer on their compatibility." He was wanting to keep it vague at the moment while they were in the cafeteria.
“So, could one of us get matched for one as well?” Pony asked in English. She was definitely curious about them. She would be interested
Izuku gave them a shrug. "I don't know." He crossed his arms thinking. "I would have to look into that before I could give you any answer good or bad." Momo had translated for the table that was not fluent in English.
Before the table could ask any more questions, Klaxon alarms started to blare. All of them at the table started looking around.
Security Level 3 has been Triggered, All students please evacuate in an orderly fashion.” The automated voice in the speakers announced. It repeated this several times.
Izuku stood up and looked around as he watched the older students starting to panic. A stampede of students started to bottleneck near the door. He gestured for his friends to stay at the table. "If you guys try to leave with them someone could get hurt." He looked over to Momo "Can you make a speaker and a Microphone please."
"One-moment Izuku," Momo said creating the devices out of her thighs. She placed the devices on the table.
"Kyoka, blast some music to get their attention. Ochako can you use your quirk on me to float in the air?" Izuku asked the two of them quickly. Ochako touch his back as Kyoko was attaching her phone to the speaker.
“IZUKU! It’s just the press coming through the front gate!’ Melissa said pointing through the window nearby them.
"Thanks, Melissa," Izuku said before he started to float in the air. As soon as the Music started to screech getting everyone's attention. “EVERYONE PLEASE CONTROL YOURSELF. IT IS JUST THE PRESS. PLEASE MAKE AN ORDERLY EXIT TO YOUR HOMEROOMS. YOU ARE UA STUDENTS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD”
The students started to calm down as exited the cafeteria at a quick, but somewhat orderly pace. “Thanks, Ochako. Can you let me down?”
"Yep, one second." Ochako deactivated her quirk allowing Izuku to drop graciously on the floor.
"Is everyone ok?" Momo asked her friends. After getting a chorus of yes it made her relax a bit. "Alright, we should get back to our classrooms." She started to lead her classmates back to their homeroom. Itsuka was doing the same for the 1-B students.
“I am going to check on the girls in the Nurse Office and then contact Principal Nezu.” Izuku waved at them as he headed off.
"Wait Izuku," Ochako called out and moved closer to him. “You should not go anywhere alone right now.” Ochako looked over at Momo who gave her a nod. “I’ll come with you.”
Izuku could not fault her logic. “Alright let go then.”
Nezu had been standing next to Shouta and Present Mic as Power Loader was looking over the destroyed panel that had allowed the reporters to rush inside and disrupt his classroom. As soon as the alarm sounded the teachers responded quickly to contain the reporters. They were corralled back outside as Nezu arrived to find out how this happened. He had sent Robo Knight to patrol the perimeter in case this was a distraction for a direct attack on the school. So far everything was coming up normal. He had DECA sweeping the school cameras for any trouble.
His phone ping with an alert and he immediately answered it. “Yes DECA?”
“I have an unknown person that has just entered All Might Office. I am tracking his movement as we speak.”
Nezu frowned at this since All Might had not had that office more than a few days and his name was not on the door yet. “Are there any teachers nearby to investigate?”
“Negative teachers are currently with students in their classrooms or outside on patrol at this moment. I do have Izuku and Ochako nearby. They are on their way to Recovery Girl’s office to check on the children.”
Nezu let out a sigh. He had been short-staffed since the board decided not to hire extra teachers that he had requested multiple times. He was glad Mt. Lady had agreed to help out as a part-time instructor. The press was still on the property as they were waiting for the police to arrive to press charges.
“DECA divert them, please. Advise them of the intruder and to apprehend if possible. I am authorizing them to respond as Rangers. I am sending anyone available backup." Nezu replied as she started to look around to see what staff members were nearby. He spotted Midnight coming towards him.
“Affirmative sir.”
"Shouta, Midnight," Nezu said quickly getting their attention. "We have an unwanted guestthat broke into AM’s office. I have two HS responding to my orders as we speak. They need backup. Please go now.”
Midnight and Shouta immediately got their bosses encrypted message and both of them moved calmly and quickly out of sight of the reporters before they took off in a full sprint.
Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep-beep.
“Go ahead DECA," Izuku replied quickly.
“Izuku we have an intruder that has entered All Might Office. Nezu had authorized a Ranger response from you and Ochako. Back-up is en route.”
Izuku looked over to Ochako who had a determined look on her face. "Copy DECA guide us to them." He grabbed his Morpher. "Ready?"
Ochako grinned back “Always.”
It's Morphing Time.
"Let's Rocket! 3-3-5 Enter."
“Quantum Power!”
Izuku and Ochako followed DECA's directions through the school and made the last turn towards All Might's Office they notice a person in a black hoodie exiting the office. The person looked towards them and took off running in the opposite direction. They chased after the intruder went down the nearest stairwell.
“DECA inform our back-up of our targets path. See if we can’t cut them off.” Ochako said after heading down the stairwell with Izuku.
“I am coordinating that now.”
They made a turn at the bottom of the stair to see the intruder touch a door causing it to turn into a sand/dust-like substance. They darted outside with the Izuku and Ochako almost on their heels. They were just about to catch up with the intruder when a purple portal appeared in from of the intruder. The intruder never slowed as they jumped into the portal and the portal vanished a moment later.
Izuku let out a sigh as hit tapped his coms. “DECA the intruder had a partner with some kind of Teleporting quirk. The intruder is gone.” Izuku tapped his helmet taking scans of the area for DECA to analyze later.
“Ah, fudge. I was sure we had him.” Ochako said a bit upset the intruder got away.
Izuku moved over and patted her on the shoulder. “They must have planned for them to be extracted here or they were in contact with their partner.”
Ochako placed her hands on her hips. “Why would someone risk breaking into UA? And All Might’s office of all places?” she asked confused about the intruders’ motives.
Izuku shrugged at her questions. “Who knows a rabid fan wanting some memorabilia, or a villain he put away a long time ago looking for some kind of dirt on All Might.” Izuku tilted his head towards the school. “Let’s find Nezu and see what he thinks about it.”
They powered down when Shouta and Midnight arrived a minute later. After both of them were hugged by Midnight and debriefed quickly by Shouta before they were escorted to Nezu's office. Both apologized for letting the intruder escape.
"You are both still in training. I never expected someone brazen enough to break in here would have a well-planned exit strategy." Nezu smiled at his students. "You acted under my orders and did well regardless of the outcome."
“Thank you, sir.” Izuku and Ochako said together as they gave each other a high-five.
Nezu looked at his watch. "Now you two will be escorted back to class 1-A by Midnight here.”Nezu gestured in her direction. “The school will be informed that classes will be canceled for the rest of the day and they will resume tomorrow morning." He could see a note of concern on Izuku's face. "I already have the Big 3 sitting in the Nurses Office to keep Recovery Girl, your Mother, and the girls safe from any intruders."
"Thank you, sir," Izuku said with a bow before Midnight to escort him out of the room.
After Midnight corralled Izuku and Ochako out of the office to escort them back to 1-A Homeroom. Shouta looked back at his boss who had a frown on his face. “What are you thinking this was all about?” Shouta asked.
Nezu leaned back to take a deep breath. "This is either someone trying to get to All Might through us or it was a declaration of war against us." Nezu had DECA looking over their security systems to see how the intruder got onto the premises and how they got past their supposed top-of-the-line security systems that the Chairman had pushed for personally for the last year. It had been expensive and had taken almost 3 months to get it completely installed and operational.
"Either way I suggest we postpone our time to the USJ until next week as a precaution," Shouta suggested. "I think we should also have the staff and select Pros on standby just in case." He would never admit to anyone other than Emi or Nezu that he truly cared for his student's safety.
Nezu nodded in agreement. "I think that is a good idea. We shall keep informing Thirteen and All Might of the schedule change." Nezu looked at the clock. "Robo Knight will be here shortly to brief me on the security breach details with Power Loader.
Chairman Neigo leaned back in his seat after he hung up the phone. The plan has not gone the way it was supposed to go. He was supposed to interrupt the security system for their acquaintance to get onto the premises and get them into the office for them to get All Might’s class schedule for when he would be teaching a class at the USJ. His benefactor had been very specific that his asset was supposed to get into that office. Neigo had given him the layout of the building and the exact location of All Might's new office.
The reporters rushing the gate had not been a part of the plan, but it cleared the building of any extra teachers who had helped the plan. He had scheduled for the security camera system to be updated just before the break-in. He was not expecting two students to assist and get a possible image or ID. He was not sure that the schedule was valid anymore. He pulled his phone out of his pocket and called his brother. “It’s me. I need you to make a few calls on behalf of our family's Benefactor.” He hoped that he would not be blamed for this setback. He watched his father fail him once before. That was the last time he ever saw him alive. He was not about to make the same mistake his father did.
Nero Monoma hung up the phone before dropping it on his desk. He let out an angry sigh before he asked his secretary to get his personal asset in his office ASAP. He logged into the HPSC system and put in an urgent request for him to meet with a specific inmate that was currently locked up in the most secure level in Tartarus. He has just been approved for his request by the higher-ups when someone knocked at his door. "Enter."
The person that entered his office was the well-known #3 Pro Hero: Hawks. He looked really annoyed at being summoned to Monoma’s office. "You summoned for me, Sir?" Hawks tone was bored and slouched in front of his desk. He had his hands in his pockets barely looking at him.
Nero glared at the obvious disrespect, but he was too busy for him to disciple him at the moment. "Yes, I have a new assignment for you." Nero reached into his desk and pulled out a large vanilla folder. "You are to get close to this target and take possession of a device they have on their person at all times. I want you to approach the target and obtain the item as soon as you can." Nero tapped his desk to emphasize the point. "You are on the clock on this assignment. A picture of the device is in the file and pertinent information about the target is inside.” Nero jabbed a finger in Hawk’s direct. “Steal it or seduce her to get it I don’t care.” He stood up and went to get his coat to head to Tartarus.
“Yes sir.” Hawks gave him a mock salute and quickly walked out of the office. He opened the file and froze mid-step. His target was the Rabbit Heroine: Miruko. Hawks closed the folder quickly and swore loudly at his bad luck on this assignment. He hoped he could get the item his handler wanted without getting kicked his head into the sun by one of the biggest badasses around. It was jobs like this that made him want to make a break to escape to another country. To get as far away from his handler as humanly possible. He called a friend of his to get her phone number to try and meet her for coffee. “Please don’t let this be the reason why I die young.” Hawks said aloud as he waited for his friend to pick up.
Nero walked down the hall with the guards by his side. It had been a while since he had physically stepped foot in Tartarus. He had made arrangements for his visit to be official as a follow on the inmate's case. He got the request for the cameras to be turned off due to the highly classified nature of the inmate. When he walked into the room he watched as the inmate smirked and started to clap as his at his arrival.
"Well, this is quite the surprise to see my old handler coming down here just to see little old me." The inmate said with a sarcastic laugh. "What did you come to find someone else to add to my kill count or just because you missed me so much?”
Nero scoffed at the attempt to insult him. "I require your specific skill set. I have a way to get you out of here if you agree to take out a very special target for myself and the HPSC." He had planned to have her moved out of the prison for a re-trial on a new charge and have her escape during transit to the courthouse. She would do the job before she was either recaptured by the Pro Heroes or taken out by his own men as the safe house. “I need the skills of the famous Kaina Tsutumi A.K.A. Lady Nagant.”
Nagant looked at him for a moment before she started to laugh with a deep belly laugh. It lasted for almost a full minute. “You want me to do you a favor? You? After you screwed me over and tossed me in this hellhole.” She leaned back in her chair. “Not interested you bastard.”
Nero started grinding his teeth. "This is a very important target. Name is Izuku Midoriya and the HPSC needed him to be eliminated before he becomes an even bigger threat to the system." He slid the file in front of her with all the details. "If you accept then I may be able to get you a full pardon." He really needed her to accept this deal.
Nagant looked at Nero with a blank face. “You want me to kill a kid?” When she watched the man nod. She took a breath before she spoke again. “The answer is no. I won’t kill a kid.” She leaned forward giving him a big grin. “If you see him as that big of a threat then I want him to continue his work. The bigger he gets the more your system will crumble.” She closed the folder and slid in back towards Monoma. She decided to give him the two-finger salute. “Fuck off.”
Nero nearly snapped at her, but decided to leave instead. “Toss this traitor back in her cell now!” He snarled at the guards as she was escorted out with a smirk on her face. He needed to call his brother. They needed a new plan to get rid of their problem very soon. He was already making plans to head to the next person on his list to do the job. He hated to have to settle for second best, but right now options were limited.
Izuku arrived with Ochako back at the class 1-A homeroom to see everyone talking about the break in. The room immediately went silent as they walked into the room. “Sup guys.” Izuku said quickly as he went to an open desk. Before they could start asking them any questions, Midnight walked into the room behind them and snapped her whip to get their attention.
“Alright class, you all know that the press has broken into the school and has disrupted the schools schedule. Principal Nezu has decided to cancel classes for the rest of the day, but understand that classes will resume tomorrow at its normal time.” Midnight waved to the class as she hurried out to help the other teachers. “have a good day everyone!”
The students started to pack up their belongings to head home for the day. Fumikage and Tsu talked for a few minutes before heading out of the room together. Melissa and Kirishima walked out talking about different gym work outs to try this afternoon at the gym. Before too long the only students left in the classroom was Mina, Toru, Ochako, Momo, and Kyoka along with Izuku.
“Hey Izuku, what happened after you left with Ochako to check on the girls?” Momo asked as they all moved closer together to listen to his story.
He filled them in on the heading down to check on the girls and how before they could get there they were redirected to chase an intruder. They informed them to that they had a partner that got away. Mina and Toru looked surprised at them getting permission from the Principal to chase a villain.
“Wow you guys got to chase another villain? I don’t know that you are lucky or cursed.” Mina asked a bit impressed.
“I don’t know either way.” Izuku deadpanned.
Toru moved over and seemed to be looking him over. “Are you ok?”
Izuku smiled and waved her off. “I’m fine. Ochako and I just chased after them.”
Toru seemed to step back and whispered something into Mina ear. Mina nodded and started to send messages out to a few people.
Izuku looked over at Ochako and tried to suppress a smile. “Before I forget Ochako I have some news that you are going to be happy about.” He watched as a confused look crossed her face. “Principal Nezu and I were discussing several different projects for the campus and they are some new building that are going to be added very soon. It was decided that the Uraraka Construction Company will be leading those projects.” He finished with a bigger smile as he watched the shock cross her face.
“M-My parent are being contracted by UA to build on campus?” Ochako said trying to get over her shock of the news. “How much are they look at?” She was curious if it was enough to help them get their company bit further out of the red in the finances. She watched Izuku write down something on a piece of paper and handed it to her. She saw the number on the paper she lunged forward and knocked him to the ground.
Izuku let out a grunt as his back hit the floor. He looked up in time to see Ochako had wrapped her arms around his chest thanking him over and over again. He noticed he was starting to float and figured she must have accidently activated her quirk in the excitement. It took a few minutes for her to calm down enough to return his gravity to him. she was still so excited to see something that could change her family’s entire life.
“Looks like we missed something important.” A voice said from the behind them. Izuku turned to see Setsuna and Pony entering the room. he waved at her and smiled as she returned his waved with an excited hug/near-tackle. “Hey is Mei on her way?” she asked looking around the room.
“She said she was busy working on something and to continue without her.” Kyoka said looking at her phone. She looked around the room and moved her jacks listening to the nearby hallway and classrooms. “Were clear. I double checked.”
Momo cleared her throat. “Well we needed to talk to you about something else anyway.” She gestured for him to sit down a desk and they waited for Pony and Setsuna to move closer around him.
“Did I do something wrong?” He asked hoping that he did not upset someone by doing or saying the wrong thing.
“No Izu. You did nothing wrong.” Setsuna said quickly to alleviate her boyfriend before he started trying to blame himself for something. She looked at his other girlfriends they nodded for her to continue. “Well we wanted to let you know that those 3,” She pointed to Mina, Toru, and Pony. “Found out that you are dating us plus Mei.”
Izuku looked like a deer in the headlights. “Uh how?”
After Toru explained how she discovered them entering and exiting an empty room and told Mina what she had seen. How they discussed it with Pony of their suspicions on how close they were and how Mei slipped up in their chat left them with little choice but to talk about it. Izuku was not upset with Mei since she would never do anything on purpose. He let out a breath and looked at the 3 girls sitting together. “I appreciate you not outing us to everyone else, but where does that leave us?”
Mina cleared her throat. “Well after talking with the other we decided that we want in. I want that date you owe me.” Mina said as her cheeks turned a light purple.
Toru raised her arm as well. “I would like that date that Raphtalia promised as well.” She was grateful that she was invisible for the first time in a while since her face was flushed.
Pony looked at him with a smile. “I would like to get to know you a bit better.” She tapped her finger together a bit embarrassed. “I would like to see where this goes.” She finished in English.
Izuku brain shorted out hard enough for him to faint.
The girls made sure he was ok and Ochako sigh as she told them it was a sucker bet. He came to a few minutes later as took a moment to collect his thoughts. He talked with his girlfriends and after talking with them for few minutes he turned to face the other 3 girls. “Sorry about that.” Izuku “You all want to try joining our group?” When he got 3 affirmatives he took a deep breath. “Let’s take this slow and see what happens. I don’t want anyone getting hurt or feels left out.” He watched the three of them brighten immediately. Soon they were doing rock-paper-scissors. Pony and Mina frowned as Toru started cheering. Izuku was confused as she rushed over and pulled him into a hug “What just happened?” he asked looking to Kyoka and Momo.
“Well they are battling to see who get to go out on a date with you first.” Kyoka said twirling one of her jacks. “I told them we had plans on Sunday and we will randomize the next girl after our date.”
Momo nodded along with Kyoka. “Yes, it seemed like the best way for us to get time with you and not become hostile to each other.” They had discussed the plan in depth the night before and they all agreed to go along with it. Ochako and Setsuna agreed with her statement.
“Hey, since it half day how about we go out and have some fun?” Toru asked as she bounced around.
Izuku was not sure what he had planned for the evening after the day’s events. “Well I need to go check on the girls and I will ask if Mom to see what she thinks.” He looked at the other girls to make sure they were all in agreement. “Alright then let’s go head down to the Nurses Office.”
“Yea! I want to see my horn buddy!” Mina exclaimed
“To the Chibi’s!” Pony Joined as they fed of each other’s energy.
Ochako giggled at their excitement. “Well they are definitely full of energy.”
Kyoka shook her head. “That is one way to put it.”
As soon as they entered the Nurses office any idea of an evening out went out the window. Raphtalia and Eri ran towards him latching onto him immediately after they saw him. Izuku could see that the alarm had scared the two of them and it looked like they were not going to let him go anytime soon. The girls filed in and helped calm them as well. “It’s ok girls. We’re here.” Inko filled them in on what happened after the alarm went off and how The Big 3 had come to act as their guard until the crisis had passed and they had to return to their homerooms.
“Well I think we should head home for the day.” Inko suggested as she hoped they would feel safe once they got back to the apartment.
“I think that is a good idea Mom.” He looked at the girls. “Maybe another time then.” He wanted to make sure the girls were doing better before he left them for the night. He felt bad for Toru since she had been so excited earlier at the chance for a date.
“How about we help you get them home and an impromptu movie night?” Mina suggested to the room. “I wouldn’t mind spending time with them and we all get to hangout as well.” She looked around to see everyone starting to think about it.
Izuku looked around the room. “That may not be bad idea.” He watched as Raphtalia wars seemed to perk up a bit. “What do you think Mom?”
Inko seemed to think for a moment before nodding her head in agreement. “That sounds like a good idea. We planned on showing movies to Eri and this looks like a good way to do it.” Inko had talked with Hound Dog about what movies to show Eri for the first time and they had almost all of them on the list. They had planned to do it on Saturday night, but today may be better for her and Raphtalia. “Would you girls like to come over to join us?” Inko had noticed immediately the 3 new girls that were hanging around her son and his girlfriends. ‘Seems like my granddaughters little schemes had an interesting effect.’ She made a mental note to ask Izuku for the details later.
“I’m in!” Toru said quickly after she sent a message to her mom.
Mina started typing quickly on her phone and smiled after she got a reply. “I will be there too! Dad told me it was ok as long as I am home before 9 since it is a school night.”
“Thank you for the offer Ma’am. I would like to come as well.” Pony said giving Inko a respective bow. She knew it that her relatives would be ok with her going to visit with friends.
“Count me in as well.” Ochako said with a smile. She moved closer and gentle put her hand on Eri’s shoulder. She smiled as Eri wanted her to pick her up.
Kyoka smirked as she twirled her jack by her finger. “I’m coming as well if that is ok.” She knew she would send a message to her mom as she would approve it. “I can use a movie night after today.”
Setsuna smirk as she gave them a thumbs up. “Well I am not missing out on a chance to hang out with my girl Raphtalia.” She moved closer as the Tanuki got excited at getting to spend time together.
Momo tapped her chin. “I would like to come as well and I think we should all bring some snacks over to the Midoriya’s apartment.” Momo pulled out her phone and placed an order after messaging her mother on what to bringso she could pick for the gathering. Everyone seemed to agree with her idea and then Momo remembered. “I think someone will have to get Mei from the support lab.”
“I will grab her on our way out.” Izuku took out his phone and send each of them his home address. He looked at Raphtalia and Eri. “Why don’t you girls get your stuff gathered up and we will head home.”
“Ok Papa/Izuku.” They answered and took off to get their things. “Alright, I will head home with Mom and the girls to get everything set up and will met you all there.” When they all agreed Izuku and Inko stopped by the Support Course and were greeted by Power Loader that handed Mei off to them after she was upset about having to leave since the school was being closed for the day. A pout from Raphtalia stopped Mei from complaining too much. They told her of the gathering at their apartment and that she was invited to join them. Mei smiled as she grabbed her stuff and followed Izuku and the others to the car.
They made a quick stop at a nearby convivence store to get a few things before heading to their apartment. After they got back to the apartment Inko started setting some snacks on the kitchen table. Mei helped Izuku moved the furniture around to make more space for everyone. He went and grabbed the extra pillows and blankets put them on the floor. Eri had been confused as to what was going until he took the time to explain it to her.
It was not long before the girls started to arrive at the apartment. Mina and Toru were the first to arrive both with bags of soda. Kyoka arrived with a bag of chocolate chips cookie. Ochako arrived right behind her with a bag of Mochi and tried to apologize for it was a small order. Inko waved her off and thank her for bring her treats. Setsuna arrived with a bag of her favorite Dinosaur cookie. Momo had arrived with a bag of popcorn and variety of tea. Pony had been the last to arrive and she had a bag of American treats and drinks for her friends to try. Pony also brought a bag of apples with her as well. Raphtalia and Eri were looking at the spread of food on the table as if they had hit the jackpots. Raphtalia was looking at the sweets while Eri was starting to drool over the apples. Soon they were being fussed over by the older girls. After everyone got what snacks they wanted they started to get comfortable when Mina made a request.
“Hey Izuku can you use the Morpher that made copies of you?” Mina asked get a bit embarrassed as she remembered her words during the battle training about that ability. “That way we have can cuddle with you while we watch the movie?”
Izuku thought for a moment before reaching into his pocket. I can only make six clones.” He switched to the SPD Morpher.
They discussed it amongst themselves and Pony and Setsuna agreed to share a clone. Momo and Ochako agreed to share another. As they all got comfortable on the around the TV Eri went to sit on the lap of the Izuku with Momo and Ochako. Raphtalia went over to sit on lap of the Izuku with Setsuna and Pony. As they put in a children movie from hound Dogs approved list everyone settled in. Inko hit the play button to start the movie.
Inko was the last one to sit down as she took a picture and sent it to her chat with her daughters. She was watching their replies as she watched the movie.
Mother and Daughters.
Mom: Well girls, we are all settled in for the night. We decided that since the break-in startled with girl a bit so we decided that a movie night was in order to brighten their mood.

Mom: Do you girls forget it. 😊
Soon it was like there was a small party at the apartment. Rumi, Nemuri, Yu, and Ryuko all arrived about the same time. They had just finished the first movie and were about to start the second when they noticed their arrival. Ryuko introduced herself to Eri and asked about her egg and looked at it with a lot of interest. Nemuri started to tease Izuku and adding the new girls. Rumi took some time to introduce herself to Eri and let her the young girl pet her ears. Yu made small talk with the new girls and went to meet Eri and found her extremely adorable. All four Pro Heroines immediately loved the little unicorn and agree to keep her safe.
Everyone grabbed more food and drinks before getting comfortable again before Inko selected the next movie and reminded Izuku and the girls they had school in the morning. They understood and watched the next movie. When the movie finished it was time for everyone to start heading home. Everyone helped clean up the room and move the furniture back when Inko wanted it. Izuku sisters said they would make sure all the girls got home safety. Izuku started exchanging hugs and kisses with his girlfriends. Mina settle of a short kiss before flushing purple. Toru was nervous as she got her goodnight kiss. Izuku let her set the pace and hurried out after his kiss full of energy. Pony gave him a chaste kiss before telling she would see him at school. Each of the girls got a kiss how they wanted it.
Raphtalia was excited to see the girls kissing her Papa. She started to chant about her get mama’s. Eri looked on in confusion. The girls left the apartment leaving Izuku and Inko had to get the girls bathed and ready for bed. They were full of energy and sugar so it took them a while settle down. When they finally started to get tired Raphtalia and Eri curled up together in bed. Izuku tucked them in before calling a night himself.
“I see, do keep me informed of all the changes Chairman Monoma. I will not tolerate another failure after all the planning I have put into this.” The man placed the phone down after ending the call. “Kurogiri, please bring the doctor here for our meeting please.” His voice was calm and
“Yes Sensei.” Kurogiri replied with a bow before he opened a portal and disappeared before returning a minute later with a man in a white lab coat.
“Ah, Dr. Giraki I do apologize for the wait. I had to handle another asset.”
“I understand you are a busy man after all. What can I do for you?” Dr. Giraki asked as he looked at his watch. “I am nearing a critical juncture with my latest experiment.”
Sensei chuckled. “I will not keep you long then. I have something for you to experiment with.” He snapped his fingers and Kurogiri brought over a silver metal case. He watched the doctor open it and look in awe of its contents.
Dr. Giraki look at 5 crystals of varying dark colors radiating power and thrumming with malice. “Incredible.” He looked up at Sensei “What do you want me to do with them?”
“Reach out to our dear friend Giran and have him start looking candidates that match the criteria in the envelope inside. Money is no issue.” Sensei instructed him as he watched the doctor close the case. “Finish the Nomu and if you have any spare time then you can experiment with the crystal to your hearts content.”
“I shall get start right away.” Dr. Giraki said excitedly as he picked up the case and entered the port back to his lab.
“Kurogiri, you may return to keep an eye on Young Tomura.” Sensei dismissed his loyal follower with a wave of his hand.
“Yes, Sensei please summon me if you require anything else.” Kurogiri replied with a bow before disappearing from the room.
After making sure they were alone. “The crystals are now in play just like we agreed upon.”
A deep bestial laugh filled the room. “Good with any luck we shall have our candidates soon and we will have our new enforcers ready to carry out our plans.” The room was briefly filled with an eerie red light.
Sensei nodded his head in agreement. “Yes, I am hoping that Young Tomura will be strong enough for the last of your crystals, but I am always looking for a new candidate if he becomes a problem.”
“Soon after all these years, we shall rule this world together All for One.”
“This has been a truly fruitful partnership Dark Spectre.”

Chapter Text
The next several days went by quickly for everyone as the first full week of school had finally come to an end. They were normal school-filled days. Shouta and Vlad King informed both classes that due to the break-in the day before they would be rescheduling their rescue training for the following week. Instead, they decided that it would be a good day for them to train their Quirks and work on different team-building exercises for both classes. The only person that refused to participate was Monoma since he believed that it was beneath him to work with anyone. Monoma instead was sent to do physical training since he was refusing to work with anyone from class 1-A or 1-B.
Izuku had spent that time helping out his girlfriends and new friends with his analysis to help them improve their quirks while they trained together. He noticed that Fumikage and Tsu were sparing with each other in speed and agility. Melissa and Kirishima had been fighting it out hand-to-hand or taking turns defending from each other’s attacks. Shoto had tried to spar with another student, but his ice attacks were massive and resulted in poor Sero needing to be unfrozen. Twice. After that Shoto was moved to an area where no one could get caught in his ice while he practiced.
That Friday when he went by with his girlfriends to check on Raphtalia and Eri was when they were all introduced to the newly hatched Fire Heart. Izuku had to pinch the bridge of his nose as the tiny dragon was being held by Eri. ‘Most powerful dragon in the world being held like a stuffed toy by a unicorn.’ He thought to himself. It was an adorable sight.
The girls fawned over Fire Heart and asked Eri if they could pet him. After taking turns with the petting Fire Heart it was time for them to head home for the day. His girlfriends would come over after school for a bit to either watch TV together or play aboard game together before having to head home. Fire Heart for the most part was either being held by Eri or was nearby watching over her and Raphtalia.
On Sunday Izuku had to get up early to get ready for the Charity event for an orphanage that specialized in Quirkless children and Children that were abandoned due to their quirks being considered' villainous' in nature. Izuku was hoping to raise enough money that would allow the orphanage to expand and bring in some teachers to allow for all of the children to get a proper education. He was also going on a date that he promised Kyoka and was looking forward to it.
Most of the girls had plans for the day. Mei was meeting up with Melissa to build some together in the UA Support Lab with a teacher to keep her from blowing up the school, building something extremely dangerous, or both. Mei had been super excited to spend more time with Melissa again.
Ochako had plans to celebrate with her parents after they received the official offer from Nezu to build on the UA campus and had received a large amount of funds to boost their family business to hire more workers. Her Father was taking them to a small resort to spend the day together as a family.
Momo and Setsuna sadly had to go to another function with their families. Mona would be at the charity event running everything, but Momo's father had requested that she come to meet a few of his business partners to be polite and he would not bother her to come to another business event for the rest of the term. Momo agreed and immediately begged Setsuna to come with her to keep her company. She agreed not wanting to leave her best friend alone in a snooty party.
Mina and Toru had already made plans with their families to spend the day together before joining the group. They wanted to have a shopping day the following weekend to make up for it.
Pony was the only one who did not have any plans and had volunteered to help Inko watch Raphtalia and Eri after the event was over to let Izuku and Kyoka go on their date. She had been excited to spend time with the girls and had told him she planned to bring lots of stuff for them to do together.
Inko told him she was meeting Mitsuki to have coffee that morning to catch up with each other and would be there afterward to pick up the girls along with Pony.
Eri wanted to bring Fire Heart with her and almosthad a panic attack until they agreed to have him hide in her backpack to keep him out of sight. Fire Heart agreed with the plan as a bed was made in the bag for him. He climbed in a curled up inside without much fuss.
Izuku arrived at Kyoka's house early with both girls with him. Kyoka's mother Mika was going to come with them. After their last meeting with the band Deep Dope, they reached out to Jirou's recording studio to have them produce their next album that was set to start recording next month or so. The manager had requested to talk with her in person and have the band sign the papers before the Charity event so they could officially announce the next album after their performance.
Kyoka came down the stairs wearing a dark purple Deep Dope shirt with a black skirt that ended halfway down her thighs. Her legs were covered with dark purple fishnet stocking going to her calf-high black boots. She had a light application of makeup touched off with dark purple lipstick.
"How do I look?" Kyoka asked nervously. She had to suppress the urge to tap her jacks together like she normally did when she got nervous. She wanted to look good for their date since there might not be time for her to change afterward. She looked him over to see him wearing nice black dress pants and a dark green button-up shirt. His hair was pulled back into its loose ponytail as it normally was. Kyoka blush a bit as she noticed him looking her over from top to bottom.
"You look incredible Kyoka," Izuku said was awe in his voice. He was having a hard time looking away from her.
“Wow! Kyo is so pretty!” Raphtalia exclaimed as she rushed forward to hug her.
Eri followed suit a moment later. "You look really pretty Miss Kyoka," Eri said looking at her clothing and make-up.
Kyoka talked extremely excited about her favorite band was going to be around her family's studio. Raphtalia and Eri were a bit confused until Mika took pity on the girls and told them it was a band that her daughter was really happy with it.
“So, we get to listen to them play today?” Raphtalia asked making sure she understood.
Mika beamed at her and ruffled the Tanuki hairs causing the girl to purr with delight. "Yes, we will be listening to them later this morning." She smiled at Raphtalia as she looked over at her daughter who was still talking excitedly to her boyfriend.
"That sounds like fun Grandma Mika," Raphtalia said quickly before darting back toward Eri to talk. Izuku and Kyoka froze at what was just said and slowly looked at Mika to see how she would react. They let out a sigh of relief to see that she was smiling brightly before walking over to hug both girls closely.
"Alright everyone let's get going before we are late," Mika said to all of them as she grabbed her things and lead them out to her car.
It was a short drive before they arrived and after one of the regular security guards noticed Izuku they were waved back to the secure parking area. After getting everyone out of the car they started to head backstage with Mika to talk with the band.
Mona came out of a nearby office and pulled Izuku away to go over a few things with him quickly. Kyoka told him to go and she would watch the girls while he was meeting with Mona. After giving a quick hug to the girls and a peck on the cheek for Kyoka before he followed Mona back into her temporary office.
“Is everything going as planned?” Izuku asked concerned that something had changed last minute. He sat down across from Mona as she pulled out a piece of paper and placed it in front of him.
"Our opening performer came down with a stomach bug and will be unable to make it to today's event," Mona said softly as she watched Izuku read over the paper. "She was the only one available last minute to replace them.”
Izuku let out a groan as he looked over the paper. The person who was filling it was one Fumiki Hirashi or as she was known by her stage name Miss Dazzler. She was a Japanese native that became a rising popstar about 4 years prior at the age of 14. She had a great singing voice and her Quirk was called Fireworks. She could create lots of bright and creative fireworks with just the wave of her hand. She rose quickly in popularity until she started to act unhinged. Screaming at fans over minor things. She walked off a concert stage because she thought the fans were not cheering loud enough for her. Her erratic behavior caused her to lose many sponsors and she was nearing the bottom of the charts with her new musical direction. She had just turned 18 and many news outlets were reporting her slow fall from grace with zeal stating that she would be a nobody before her 20th birthday.
Shortly after Izuku had started doing charity events with his sisters, Mona had started to reach out to local singers and bands to open for popular bands. She hitched her name to these events trying to rebrand herself as a compassionate and caring person.
The first few events went ok, but then she started following Izuku everywhere whenever he arrived at the different charity locations. Soon he made sure to have one of his sisters were with him at all times during the events since she was starting to creep him out. She had gotten his personal number somehow and started sending inappropriate love messages to him. It resulted in him changing his number and only Mona had access to his new number on a separate phone for his charity events.
The final breaking point had been when he was taking pictures with a little boy who accidentally spilled his juice on her new shoes and she started screaming at him in front of everyone. Izuku had Mona immediately eject her from the event and then gave an autographed picture and a sweatshirt to the poor boy as an apology for how he was treated. Since then there had been a standing agreement between Mona and Izuku that she was not allowed to participate in any of their events ever again.
Her overreaction to the small boy was uploaded to the internet and her reputation had been shredded for months.
"Mt. Lady and Miruko are due to arrive shortly," Mona said quickly before giving him a smile at Izuku's look of surprise at the Hero Guests. "As soon as I saw what happened and who was replacing them I called your Mother and Sisters." She stood up and came around her desk to give him a motherly hug. "I will have security keep an eye on her. I have permitted Security to have her ejected immediately at the slightest provocation.”
Izuku had returned the hug before stepping back and giving her a respectful bow. "Thank you, I am sorry to cause you so much trouble.” He stood back up to see her shaking her head with a mirthful smile. “What?” He looked at her confused as she ruffled his hair slightly.
"You have nothing to apologize for." She sat on top of her desk. "These things happen. Trust me, I have been doing events like this for years and a lot of this happened behind the scenes." She crossed her arms. "The more I am around you Izuku, the more I can see why my daughter fell for you."
Izuku blush and started to scratch his cheek with his pointer finger. “W-Well I think that every day I am around her I think I’m lucky she wants to be with me.” He looked away from Mona blushing with embarrassment.
"You should head out to meet up with Mika and the others," Mona said heading back to sit behind her desk. "Oh, One more thing Izuku."
“Yes?” Izuku said about to head out the door.
Mona had a smirk on her face. “Promise me you won’t make me grandmother again until after you and Momo have graduated from UA.” Mona acknowledge that Raphtalia was already her granddaughter and was sure that Eri was not far behind from joining his family.
Her laughter filled the office as Izuku started choking on air and nearly fell on his face from her words. He was doing an amazing impression of a tomato.
“Mona!”
Izuku had gotten his blush under control by the time he arrived at Bands prep room. He knocked and waited for the ok to enter. After hearing someone telling him to enter, Izuku walked into the room and smiled at the sight before him. Kyoka was talking excitedly to the band as one of the members was showing Raphtalia and Eri their guitar as both of them were watching them play and fill the room with music. Izuku joined to talk with them a bit before they had to do their sound checks.
Everyone was having fun right up until the door open and Izuku heard the voice of the one person he had been trying to avoid.
“Hello Izuku Darling”
Izuku suppressed a wince as he turned to see Miss Dazzler standing in the doorway all decked out in her pop star persona. Her hairstyle was pigtails hair with bleached blonde and dark green dyed at the tips. She wore a dress that was white with silver sprinkles in the shape of starbursts over the dress. She wore a pair of while sparkle boots to match the outfit. She wore a lot of make-up with glitter on her face and bright red lipstick.
Izuku took a moment to compose himself before speaking. “Miss Dazzler, nice to see you.” He gave her his best fake smile.
She started walking towards him purposely adding an extra sway of her hips. “It has been far too long dear.” She attempted to kiss his cheek, but Izuku took a step back. “Still playing hard to get, are we?” She flashed him a smile as she tried again.
Izuku let out a sigh as he moved back again. "I believe it is time for your soundcheck Miss Dazzler." He gestured to the door. He was able to catch just a flash of anger before she composed herself and headed towards the door.
“Later darling.” She blew him a kiss before he disappeared.
Izuku let out a shudder of disgust at her forward behavior. He felt a gentle hand on his shoulder and turned to see a concerned/annoyed look on Kyoka's face.
“What was all that about?” Kyoka asked. She gestured towards the door Dazzler had just left through.
Izuku looked over to see the girls still being mesmerized by one of the bandmates. He gave her the short version and watched at Kyoka's face grew angry as he filled her in.
"How do you want to handle it?" Kyoka asked him. she didn't like to see how she how the pop star tramp tried to kiss her boyfriend or how forward Dazzler was being. Kyoka had recognized her immediately from the various music sites and online posts of her erratic and lewd behavior with various male artists. She had been surprised to see she was still around to do events.
"I plan to ignore it for now. The event is more important than my comfort and I don't want to see it ruined." Izuku said letting out a sigh. "Mt. Lady and Miruko will be here shortly to run inference with her." He gently cupped her chin before placing a tender kiss on her lips. "Now come on forget about her. We still have time to relax with your favorite band."
“You are getting a bit too smooth," Kyoka said blushing slightly as she pulled him towards the band to talk with the ma bit more. Raphtalia and Eri wanted to learn how to play the guitar. Kyoka smiled brightly and told her she would teach them both whatever instrument they wanted when they were older. The girls accepted that answer and went back to watching the band play.
The band had to leave for their soundcheck and waved as they headed out of the room. Eri and Raphtalia were starting to get hungry and Mika took them to get some snacks. That left the two of them alone.
Izuku moved and pulled Kyoka close to him. “Finally have a few minutes to ourselves.” He gently held her face in his hands. “You look beautiful.”
Kyoka smiled as he locked her eyes with his. "You can keep telling me that if you want." She looped her arms around his neck and pressed her body against him.
"I'll tell you that you are beautiful every day if you want my Rock Queen” Izuku replied to her as he moved his hands on her hips.
"You'd better," Kyoka said before she kissed him. They lost track of time as they started making out. They never heard the door open or that anyone had entered the room until they started screaming.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!"
Izuku and Kyoka turned their heads to see who was yelling. In the doorway was Miss Dazzler with a look of pure hatred on her face as she glared at the two of them. She stomped into the room and jabbed a finger in their direction. "What do you think you are doing with my Izuku?” She growled out as she came closer.
Kyoko's face contorted in anger. "Your Izuku?" She asked as she pulled away from Izuku and stood her ground against the pop star. Kyoka looked her over before scoffing. "You interrupted my private time with my boyfriend just now," Kyoka smirked as they watched as the other woman's face became a dark red. "Yes, he is MY boyfriend." She enjoyed rubbing salt on that wound towards the interloper.
Dazzler was so angry that small fireworks started to pop around her in a variety of colors. She clenched her fist and spoke through clenched teeth. "He was going to be mine." She started to breathe heavily as she started to rant. "I planned for us to officially announce our relationship today so that it would help boost my rating with the public, then people would hire me for more work to help me return my incredible music to the top of the charts where it belongs and eventually we would be Husband and Wife.” She took another step forward towards Kyoka. "I already started my triumphed return to stardom with a guest spot on a crime show as a dead hooker."
Kyoka quirked an eyebrow at her crazy ranting and decided to rub more salt in the wound. "Dead whore on TV, live one in real life." Kyoka sassed Dazzler with a smirk on her face.
Dazzler's eye twitched at her comment but chose to ignore it. "You took what was mine." Her fireworks grew slightly larger.
"I don't belong to you Miss Dazzler. Never have and never will." Izuku said as he crossed his arms. He knew that she was becoming more possessive of him before her ban from these events. It seems that time has not improved her outlook or calmed her possessive streak. He was hoping that the band would return soon to help de-escalate the building confrontation.
"Shush, my darling Izuku and let me handle this so we can be alone together very soon," Dazzler said waving him off as she started talking out her hoop earring. "I need to put a low-class bitch in her proper place."
Kyoka's eye twitched at that and started to crack her knuckles as she was about to teach this pop princess a lesson she will never forget. "You better come at me with more than your fake tits and your cheap nails, you wannabe Pop bitch." Kyoka rolled her shoulder before getting into a fighting stance. "you ain't no pop queen you're just a waste of 3 minutes and a dance routine.”
Dazzler lost all self-control she had left as she lunged for Kyoka tearing her Deep Dope shirt revealing her black bra as they both tumbled to the ground and began to fight. Dazzler tried to claw at Kyoka’s eyes with her nails, but Kyoka was quicker and grabbed both of Dazzler’s wrists before pulling them away from her face. Kyoka leaned her head back and drove a headbutt hard against Dazzler’s nose.
Izuku was fighting every instinct he had not to jump in and try to break up the catfight. He may be reckless and daring at times, but he knew better than to get in the middle of this and come out that with all his limbs intact. He was of two minds at the moment. First was that Kyoka was not a damsel in distress after watching her fight at school and with him during their fight with the Batlings that she could handle herself. The second was he thought it was kind of hot to see her fighting like that.
He already had his phone out after he sent a quick SOS to Mika, Rumi, and Yu before he checked to see if his camera was still recording the fight.
The pop star's head snapped back from the head butt as Kyoka followed up with a solid elbow to her face sending Dazzler to the ground sprawled on her back. Not one to pass up an opening Kyoka moved quickly and sat on Dazzler's chest as she started to rain down blows to Dazzler's face. Dazzler blocked the blows with her arms as best she could. Kyoka didn’t relent as her jacks start hitting her arms and moved around to jab at Dazzler’s face. "I am the Queen of Rock. So, don't mess with me you Pop Star bitch!" Every time Dazzler tried to block her jacks it left her face open to Kyoka's fists.
This continued until Miruko and Mt. Lady rushed in with Security to pull Kyoka off of Dazzler. One of the security guards started to reach down to help Dazzler. "Leave that bitch on her back, it's her preferred position anyway." Kyoka spat out as Miruko put her in a headlock to keep her from getting loose.
“What the hell happened in here?” Mt Lady asked as Security moved to check on the pop singer.
Izuku came over and showed all of them what happen and that Dazzler was the one to instigate the fight. He showed them the entire fight right up to the point where they intervened.
"Hey, why didn't you try to break it up, kid?" One of the guards asked as he had gotten Miss Dazzler into a nearby chair.
Izuku looked back at the guard. "Because I have common sense and some sense of self-preservation instincts."
Mt. Lady and Miruko snickered as the guard looked abashed.
Miruko failed to hide her mirth. "I like you even more now Kyoka," Miruko said still holding her in a headlock. "Call me sometime and I will give some lessons in brawling." She watched as Kyoka nodded at her words.
Mona arrived shortly afterward with a doctor with a healing quirk and looked over the two of them. Kyoka had a few scratches, bruised knuckles, and a torn shirt, but was otherwise unharmed. Miss Dazzler on the other hand was had a split swollen lip, a black eye, and bruises over her arms and face. The doctor was able to speed up the healing process and Dazzler was good as new. Someone gave Kyoka a new band shirt for her to change into.
“Now that everyone is patched up and has calmed down. What happened in here.” Mona asked her tone left no room for games.
"That crazy bitch attacked me for no reason!" Miss Dazzler screamed pointing a finger towards Kyoka raising from her chair behind the guards.
"Have Miruko let go of me and I will show you what real crazy is you skank." Kyoka shot back trying to get break free from Miruko but stopped when she knew she was not going to get free from the Rabbit Heroine's grip anytime soon.
Mona looked over towards Izuku. "Tell me what happened please." Izuku nodded and filled her in and flushed when he told her they were making out before they were interrupted. He showed her the video of the fight. Mona had Kyoka and Miss Dazzler tell their sides of the story. After listening to all sides and considering the video she looked at Dazzler. "I told you when you got here that any kind of incident and you were done with my events for good," Mona told her as she gestured for security to grab her. "Gentleman, please escort Miss Dazzler and her Manager off the premises."
Dazzler looked stunned as Security started to escort her out. “You can’t do this to me!” She screamed as they had the start carrying her out the door. “I AM MISS DAZZLER! YOU NEED ME!” She screamed the entire way out the door.
As soon as the pop star was removed from the room Miruko finally let Kyoka out of the headlock.
"Now Miss Jirou, I expected better from a UA Hero Student and a friend of my daughter to behave," Mona said moving closer to the Kyoka. “I understand she was rude and was making plans for your boyfriend, but you should have called for security and not resort to a physical altercation.”
Kyoka lowered her head at her scolding. “Yes, Miss Yaoyorozu.” She bowed at the waist to show how sorry she was. “I am sorry for letting it get that far.”
Mona smiled at Kyoka. "Apology accepted dear." She pulled out her phone and started looking through her contacts. "I will start looking for a new opener for the show."
"I have a suggestion for a singer to take over for Miss Dazzler," Mika said as she brought the girls back into the room. Eri and Raphtalia rushed over to show Izuku the treats they got and offered to share with him.
“Oh?” Mona asked. She had an idea of what she was planning.
Mika smiled as she pointed to Kyoka. “My daughter is a very gifted singer and has an original song that would be perfect for this event.” Mika figured this would be the nudge her daughter needed to get her dream of a singer and a hero off the ground.
Kyoka's head snapped in the direction of her mother. "MOM!" she cried moving closer. "That song is finished, but I don't plan to reveal it for a few years." Kyoka had asked Izuku for help in organizing her music notes and after a few conversations, the song was completed. She would sing it every once in a while when she was playing her guitar and thought it would be great to release it after she graduated from UA.
Mika just smiled at her daughter. “Think of this as punishment for your incident.” Mika gave her daughter a knowing look. “I could always ground you instead.”
Kyoka was trying to find reasons not to sing. “I don’t have my music sheets printed or anyone that has practiced my song enough to play it.”
Mika smiled and reached into her bag and pulled out a folder. “I have a copy of it with me and I know of a band that could play your song for you.”
“but-but.” Kyoka tried to find another reason. “What if they don’t like it?” She asked in a shy voice. She was afraid that if she sang her song that people would hate it. She poured her heart and soul into her into that song.
Izuku came over and gently held his hand. “Kyoka. He said gently. He watched her turn to face him. “I know you are scared, but I know your song is incredible and you can do this." He kissed her forehead. "I will be just off stage if you need me. I have faith in you, my beautiful Superstar.” He gave Kyoka his brightest smile.
Kyoka's heart skipped a beat as she knew he meant every word. She immediately pulled him into a tight embrace. She pulled back enough to kiss him full of passion. She immediately felt two sets of little arms wrap around her legs. She looked down to see that Raphtalia and Eri were each hugging one of her legs.
“Mama Kyo you have to sing! Pretty Please?” Raphtalia said excitedly as her tail was swinging hard enough from excitement she could almost going to fly around the room.
Eri looked a little shy. "I-I'd like to hear your song, Miss Kyoka." Eri immediately buried her face into Kyoka's leg to hide.
"Now I have to do it," Kyoka said looking at the girl attached to each of her legs. She took a deep breath before looking at Mona and her Mother. "I'll do it, but I will need some help getting ready and some time to warm up."
Mona smiled at her. “Come with me and we will get everything ready.”
Kyoka wave at Izuku and the girls as she was led out of the room to get ready for her debut. She waved at the girls and blew Izuku a kiss.
Miruko and Mt. lady watched their interaction and smiled as they started to tease them both and entertain the girls at the same time. Miruko was having fun pointing at the smeared purple lipstick on his face. Izuku went over and washed his face.
The event was in full swing. People were packed in as they moved to buy new Ranger hoodies and other merchandise that was being sold to raise money. People were getting excited about the concert about to start. There had been a buzz about a sudden change up to the opening performer and everyone was wondering who it was. Everyone was on edge as they watched Mona Yaoyorozu walk out to the center of the stage with a smile on her face.
"Welcome everyone who has attended today's amazing Charity drive. We have raised enough money that they will be able to expand and hired much-needed staff to help improve the lives." She waited as the crowd cheered and clapped. After they had died down she spoke again. "As you all know there was a last-minute change to the lineup for our opening singer." She let the murmurs filter through the crowds. "This will be her debut with an original song Hero Too. Please help me welcome to the stage for the first time Banshee!”
Kyoka waved to the crowd as she walked onto the stage. She had picked the name as a nod to her ranger ability and it was the first thing she could think of when Mona asked her for a stage name. Her attire had not changed much they added her yellow ranger zip-up hoodie that was open showing her Deep Dope new shirt.They touched up her make-up. They said she looked gorgeous and why mess with perfection.
She felt butterflies in her stomach as she ran through her warm-up. She nearly passed out when the Deep Dope band members came in to rehearse with her. She took a deep breath and sang her song as they follow her music sheets. When she finished she watched as her musical heroes gave her a standing ovation. After a few more run-throughs she felt ready for the stage. She heard the clapping of the audience as she neared the mic.
Kyoka walked over to the microphone. "Thank you, everyone. I have the honor to have the amazing Deep Dope playing with me today.” She looked over to the side of the stage and saw Izuku stand with Eri and Raphtalia at his side. They were all giving her a thumbs up. “Now for let get this party started with my original song Hero Too!”The band game to life as she grabbed a guitar and got in position.
What am I to be?
What is my calling?
I gave up giving up
I'm ready to go
Izuku smiled as Kyoka got into the groove of her song. It sounded amazing to his ears. He had seen the lyrics and heard her humming the melody as he helped her work on it. Kyoka had the biggest smile on her face as she was jamming out with her favorite band and the crowd was going wild for her song.
He looked down to see Raphtalia was bouncing along with the song trying to keep up with the lyrics. He noticed that Eri look of awe on her face. As the song continued on it was almost unnoticeable at first, but slowly Eri started to smile, and soon it was a full-blown smile with happy tears running down her face. Izuku knelt down and hugged her as she smiled at him for the first time since he rescued her from Overhaul. Raphtalia saw this and latched on to the two of them as one big smiling family.
Kyoka finished her song and had sweat running down her face as the crowd went wild. She bowed to her fans and was surprised when the members of Deep Dope came up beside her and bowed next to her. She looked over to see Izuku holding a smiling Raphtalia and a… smiling Eri! She bowed towards the crowd one more time and headed off stage.
Momo had to suppress a tired sigh as she shook the hand of the umpteenth person her father had introduced to her. They were all clients in one way or another whether they were Business partners or high-ranking members in the Police Department. She was grateful to have Setsuna to talk with in-between all of the people she had met so far today. She had found a small table near a window for them to sit down to have a bit of lunch. They were just about finished when Setsuna phone pinged a moment before Momo did. They both opened the link to see that it was their friend Kyoka singing an amazing song with her favorite band playing a song they had never heard before.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Kyoka was convinced to fill in for our opening singer with a Song she had been working on for a long time. Hero Too is the title.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): Wait this is her song?! Tell her congratz from me!

Green Bunny (Izuku) Has Gone Offline.
Alien Queen (Mina): Hey come back here! I need the juicy details!
LovelyPhantom (Toru): Hay Same here come back here bunny boy!
Momo had put away her phone happy for her friend. She had just about to talk to Setsuna about the adorable picture of the girls when she noticed her friend had a frown on her face. “What’s wrong?”
Setsuna pointed behind her and almost growled out the words. "Our creepy-ass stalker is back."
Momo looked behind her and immediately started to frown at the person in question. Walking towards them with a cocky swagger and an almost lecherous grin. He was your typical pretty boy with brown hair and eyes. He was roughly 5'9 and had a slim body build. His name was Orochi Kaya the only son and heir to the Kaya family. The Kaya family had their fingers in a variety of businesses from medical, military and now they were moving into the gem market.
He had been coming around with his father for the last few events and always came over to ‘flirt’ with Momo and Setsuna. He was always flirting with other girls by showing his quirk Gem Creation that allowed him to make precious gems on his skin in a similar method to how Momo’s quirk worked. He would always try to hand them some kind of gem trying to impress them. They always dropped them on a nearby table and would walk away.
"I just lost my appetite," Momo said standing up and fixing her dress before she grabbed her phone and purse.
“Yeah, same here let’s go back to where our dads are talking and hopefully he leaves us alone." Setsuna agreed tossing her napkin on the plate and standing up to grab her things as well.
They had almost made it back to where their fathers were talking with their clients when they heard his smarmy voice. "Hello Ladies, I was hoping to talk with both of you." He quickly stepped in front of them to block their path with that same lecherous grin on his face.
"Kaya," Momo said in an almost monotone voice. She was gripping her bag tightly in annoyance at him getting in the way. Momo hated the way he looked at her and how his eyes rarely if ever reached her face. This boy was the reason she was grateful to have Izuku as her boyfriend treated her like a lady and that Izuku was everything that Orochi Kaya was not.
"What do you want?" Setsuna asked her tone barely concealing her contempt. She was doing her best to not make a scene with all of their parent's clients and acquaintances here at the party. Setsuna wanted nothing more than to tell this creep that she was taken by a real gentleman.
“Now ladies, you don’t have to be so cold towards me.” He was looking them over mostly focusing on their chests. “I wanted to let you girls hear the good news from me personally.” His grin became even creepier.
Setsuna narrowed her eyes not liking the fact he was happy about something that had to do with either of them. "What?" She crossed her arms to cover her chest the best she could.
Orochi started smirking as he polished his manicured nails on his overpriced shirt. “My father is discussing a possible betrothal agreement with both of your fathers to see who will become my fiancé. Along with a possible merger of our family’s companies after our wedding.” He waited to see their response. He was practically preening.
Momo and Setsuna turned to look at each other before they both burst out laughing at him. It took them almost a full minute for them to stop laughing. They looked to see the furious expression on his face.
"What? What are you two laughing about?" Orochi was practically seething with rage at the disrespect. "Many women here would love to be in either of your shoes as my future fiancé."
Momo smirked at him. "My parents would never approve of any kind of betrothal agreement for me." Momo started smiling at the surprised look on his face. "My parent broke away from that tradition when they married a long time ago." Momo could see his face starting to turn red a dark red.
Setsuna moved next to Momo and gave Orochi a toothy grin. "Same with my parents. They stopped doing that a century ago." Setsuna pointed towards Momo. "Our moms have been best friends since elementary school and they both agreed that we would never force either of us to marry someone we didn't love or do anything without our input."
Orochi was not having it. "My father will just have to buy one of you to be my wife then." He was practically foaming at the mouth. He could not believe the disrespect he was getting from these women that had coveted for so long. He had gone to school with them, but they never acknowledged his existence.
"Get lost creep," Setsuna said truly disgusted by his words. Her glare became harsh. She subtly clenched her fists in preparation to knock him into next week.
Momo stood up a bit straighter. "We have nothing more to discuss with you, Mr. Kaya." Momo's tone turned ice cold and her eyes matched her tone in coldness. "Leave now."
The tension grew around them as they watched Orochi start shaking with impotent rage. “You two bitches will not disrespect me.” He growled out as he moved to try and attempted to grab them. “I always get what I want!”
The next few moments happened simultaneously. Momo sidestepped his hand and punched him in the face breaking his nose. Setsuna dodged his grab attempt and moved to the opposite side of Momo. She drove her knee into his groin and flipped him onto the floor. Orochi was groaning in the ground holding his groin as blood and tears ran down his face. Momo and Setsuna smiled down at their handwork and gave each other a discreet high fived at their teamwork.
This commotion caused quite the stir at the party that had their parents rushing over to figure out what was going on. After listening to both girls tell their side and watching some of the recorded videos that had been taken by other guests who had witnessed the entire incident.
Momo’s father Kuro had Orochi and his father ejected from the gathering and banned from attending any event held by the Yaoyorozu family. Setsuna's father Negi had agreed with his long-time friend and banned the Kaya family from any event held by the Tokage family in a show of solidarity of the two families.
Momo and Setsuna went over to a corner by themselves to watch Kyoka catfight again in peace.
“I can’t believe you sent that video of my fight with that skank to the group," Kyoka said as they left the event heading towards the movie theater. After she rushed off stage to see a smiling Eri and that was the best thing that could have happened in her opinion. She hugged the little unicorn as Eri talked excitedly about her song. They had a group hug before heading to the back room for a bit to let Kyoka rest and cool off after her performance.
They returned a short time later to watch Deep Dope perform. Kyoka was cheering along with the crowd. Raphtalia and Eri cheered for them as well as the band rocked the house. Inko and Pony arrived shortly after it ended to take the girls back to the apartment. Izuku gave the girls hugs as they talked excitedly to Pony.
Izuku waved at them as they left to get their date started. Izuku had originally planned on taking her to a karaoke parlor, but after her impromptu debut, they decided on something a bit more lowkey. Kyoka looked up movies and found an action movie that looked good for them to go see.
"I said I was sorry," Izuku said bowing his head again. "I thought you were amazing and it was well." He stopped before he spilled the beans.
Kyoka started poking him with her jacks. "well what?" she quirked an eyebrow as she heard his heart start racing.
"It was really hot," Izuku mumbled out blushing red.
Kyoka mirrored him for a moment as she tried to get herself under control. She cleared her throat. “Anyway, I am starving and I know a good place nearby.” She pulled him towards a nearby sandwich shop to eat before the movie started.
After they finished lunch they headed over and got seated at the movie theater. They found a seat big enough for the two of them and got comfortable as they watched the previews. Kyoka rested her head on his chest as he draped an arm around her. The movie was alright a remake of a movie almost 75 years old. It was decent and let the two of them cuddle together. When the movie was over they still had a little bit of time before they had to head home.
As they were walking around they found an arcade and decided to try out a few games. They played a variety of games and had a lot of fun. As they were leaving Izuku noticed that Kyoka was staring at a stuffed animal in a claw machine. It was a green bunny rabbit holding a guitar and wearing sunglasses.
"Do you want that stuffed animal?" Izuku asked as he pointed at the stuffed animal.
Kyoka blushed a bit before tapping her jacks together, "Yeah, but these games are rigged. Let's just get out of here." She didn't want him to waste his money on trying. She never won at these games.
Izuku smiled at her and reached into his pocket to get a hand full of coins. "Let me try something really quick." He went over and looked over the layout of all of the animals and made 3 attempts watching how the claw moved and dropped. He went in and smirked and he hit the drop button. He looked over at his girlfriend as the claw grabbed the bunny and lifted it up and dropped it in the prize slot. "Ta-da."
Kyoka took the bunny and hugged it close to her chest. “Thank you, Izzy.” She said kissing his cheek. She laid her head on his shoulder as they walked out.
"Anything for my Superstar," Izuku said placing his arm around her shoulder.
They walked to the train to get Kyoka home. The train was rather empty and neither of them was in a hurry to stop their cuddling. As they reached her house they saw that her mother's car was parked in the drive. "I had an amazing day.Thank you, Izzy.” Kyoka told him as they stood on the front porch. She threw her arms around his neck still holding her bunny with one hand.
"It was my pleasure Kyoka," Izuku said putting his hands on her hips. "We will have to do this again soon."
Kyoka smirked up at him. “Damn straight.” She leaned in to kiss him.
They got lost in their kiss until the porch light started flickering on and off.
“I’ll see you later Izzy, now excuse me as I go throttle my old man.” She gave him a quick peck on the lips before running inside the house yelling at her father.
Izuku arrived back at the apartment in time for dinner. He was immediately greeted by Eri and Raphtalia as they rushed to hug him. Pony ended up staying to have a family dinner with them after being asked to stay by Eri. Raphtalia started telling him about their afternoon watching a new movie and the games they got to play. After they finished eating After they finished dinner Pony insisted on helping Inko wash the dishes while the girls showed Izuku the drawings they made for him.
Izuku gushed over them and went to put them on the fridge. Pony and Inko had just finished the dishes and came back into the room to see Izuku laughing as he was tickling the two girls who were laughing and giggling with delight.
Pony attempted to head home, but this time it was Raphtalia who wanted her to stay longer and she made the mistake to look at Raphtalia giving her the puppy-dog eyes and finding that Eri was doing the same thing. She agreed to watch another movie with them and then head home. After the movie ended Inko corralled both girls to get them bathed and dressed for bed.
"Sorry, you got guilted into staying longer than you planned Pony," Izuku said as the girls went into the bathroom with his Mom. He started to pick up the living room as Pony got her movie and put it back in the case.
“It’s fine I had a lot of fun with the chibi’s.” Pony said double-checking her bag to make sure she had everything. “Now to get home before it gets much later." Pony was about to put her bag over her shoulder when the sound of thunder rumbled outside. "Oh drat." She complained as she looked out the window as it started to downpour outside.
"Maybe it will lighten up in a few minutes," Izuku said hoping she would not have to walk home in the rain. They watched as the downpour hadn't lessened in the slightest 10 minutes later. After a quick look at the forecast told them it was going to be like that until morning.
Inko came out of the bathroom with both girls dressing in their pajamas. She looked out the window and saw the torrential downpour outside. "Well, I can't in good conscience send you out in this dreadful weather dear," Inko said walking over to get her phone. "Can you call your family and let me talk to them.”
“Sure Inko.” Pony said dialing her relatives’ number. After talking with them for a minute she handed the phone to Inko. After Inko talked with them for a few minutes she hung up the phone. “I talked with your family and they agree to have you stay here tonight have your cousin bring you a clean uniform in the morning.”
“Thank you for your kindness Inko.” Pony said bowing to the older woman.
Inko waved it off. “I’ll have Izuku put a change of clothes and towels in the bathroom. Why don’t you get a shower and I will throw your clothes in the washer so you have something clean to wear in the morning.”
"Thank you!" Pony said happily about having clean clothes in the morning. Izuku went and got a pair of gray sweatpants and a black t-shirt and set them on the counter along with a set of fresh towels. Pony hurried off to get a shower as Izuku set a change of clothes for himself on his bed before going and reading the girls a couple ofbedtime stories. They were disappointed that they had to go to bed with Pony staying over. He reminded them they had a busy day tomorrow and needed their sleep. They finally fell asleep after the second story and Izuku left the room and turned out the light making sure the nightlight was on for them.
Izuku returned to see a freshly showered Pony talking with his mother on the couch drying her long hair. He had to admit she looked really pretty.He took the opportunity to grab his shower and gets changed into his green pajama bottoms and a gray t-shirt. They watch a show on TV as Inko went to change over Pony's laundry. When it was time for bed Izuku grabbed a few pillows and a heavy blanket from the closet.
“Pony why do you take my bed tonight and I will sleep on the couch.” Izuku offered as he placed everything on the edge of the couch.
Pony frown at the and shook her head. “No, Izuku take your bed. I can sleep on a couch for one night.” Pony was used to her time back home camping with her dad and was used to roughing it here and there.
Izuku looked at her confused. "It's only polite to have you take my bed and I will take the couch since you are a guest in our home.” He was not sure why she was insisting on taking the couch.
Pony stood her ground shaking her head no. "I insist on taking the couch. I am perfectly capable of sleeping on the couch." Pony could be stubborn when she wanted to. She was not about to make her boyfriend sleep on a couch.
The two of them went back and forth trying to offer to take the couch. Izuku and Pony were being stubborn about taking the couch for themselves. Finally, Inko decided to intervene and stop this silly disagreement. “Izuku our guest insisting on taking the couch please respect her decision.” Inko looked over at Pony. “Izuku is trying to be a gentleman and offer you his bed. He is not meaning any offense by it. I raised him how to treat a lady.” Izuku and Pony apologized to each other and hugged. “Now that this is settled. It is time for bed. Good night you two.”
” Good night Mom.”
“Good night Inko.”
Inko headed off to her bedroom leaving the two of them alone.
“Good night Pony. I will wake you in the morning.” Izuku said moving close to her.
Pony took a step forward and gave him a tender, but short kiss. “Good night Izuku.”
Izuku awoke later that night to his door opening. He woke up enough to hear the storm was still going on with thunder rumbling. He looked to see Pony was standing in the door and with the blanket wrapped around her shoulders. “Pony what’s wrong?” he asked still trying to wake up.
Pony was about to answer when the thunder rumbles causing her to flinch. “I normally do ok with thunderstorms, but right now it won’t let me sleep.” She said in English. She looked embarrassed as she mumbled something too quiet to hear.
“What do you say Pony?” Izuku said waking up enough to look at her. He figured was due to her animal traits of horses not being fond of the thunderstorm.
“Can I sleep in bed with you please?” She asked her face burning red with embarrassment. She fidgeted a bit. “Never mind ill just-.” Izuku scooted over on the bed and tossed back his sheet revealing his bare muscular chest. Pony's eyes locked on his chest taking in all the details.
“Come on.” He told her patting the bed with his hand. “We need to get up early for school.” Izuku was still half-asleep or he would have been a blushing mess. He laid back down on the bed.
Pony took a deep breath before slowly walking over setting her phone on the nightstand next to his. She carefully laid down making sure her horn would not injure him. she rested her head partially on his chest and tossed her blanket over them. She got comfortable and smiled as she felt safe and warm as his arm wrapped around her. She slowly drifted off listening to his heartbeat.
Fumiki Hirashi was ruined. After her unfair ejection from the Charity Event, earlier that day with her manager her last remaining sponsor dropped her as a client and blacklisted her from future jobs with them. Her recording studio canceled their contract with her and informed her she had to pay back her cash advance which was several million dollars. She had hit rock bottom. Her manager left her a voice mail telling her she was no longer his client and blocked her number. She was currently smashed on some vodka and Saki bottles from her apartment and had smashed her TV with an empty bottle when the bitch upstart made the news.
“I will destroy that bitch and get my Darling Izuku if it is the last thing I do. “ She yelled at the smoking screen on the floor. She emptied her drink and throw the glass against the wall.
She decided to go out and find some fun. She grabbed an umbrella as she left her apartment She was walking down an alley as a shortcut to her favorite club that was near her apartment. She was so drunk that she never heard the footsteps coming up behind her. She reacted when the needle was jabbed into her neck. Before she passed out she could have sworn she saw a purple portal in front of her showing a lab of some kind. After that, her mind faded to oblivion as the drugs took effect.
“You have ruined this family future with your stupidity! You cost me millions with the loss of both of them as possible business partners or investors. Get out! I have no son!”
Orochi Kaya seethed as he carried his suitcase out of his ancestral home his father's words echoing in his head. His father had blamed him for the whole fiasco and disinherited him from the family fortune. His sister was now the Heiress and he was left with nothing but the clothing on his back and what he had in his suitcase. He had enough cash to get him a month in one of the finest hotels allowing him some time to get his father to take him back. He huddled under an umbrella as the weather was utterly miserable for him to walk through.
He would have revenge on Momo Yaoyorozu and Setsuna Tokage if it was the last thing he did in this life. He had been walking for a short time when a car came by and stopped in front of him. "Thank god," Orochi muttered to himself as he walked over to look in the window. "Can you take me to the-."
The driver pointed a gun at Orochi and shot 4 darts into Orochi's chest. He was only conscious for a few moments before he collapsed to the ground. The driver got out and look around before taking out his cellphone. "Boss, I have the kid ready for pick up. I sent a picture of the location to our contact."
“Good it will only be a moment until our contact will pick up the target.”
A purple portal opened near the car a minute later as Kurogiri stepped out and looked down at the unconscious boy. "I will take it from here. I will wire the money to your boss immediately." The driver nodded and got in their car and left. He reached down and grabbed the boy his shirt collar and dragged him inside the portal and dropped him next to an unconscious woman who was already on the floor of the doctor’s lab. “Two down and three to go.” As he turned to portal away he noted a boy with black hair covered with horrendous burns and stitches across his body sitting on a table talking with the good Doctor. “Two to left go then.” Kurogiri said before returning to his bar to deal with an overgrown child.
Tartarus
Lady Nagant sat in the visiting room waiting for someone who had requested an audience with her. She was surprised to see how popular she was recently after years rotting in Tartarus. She looked around as the guards seemed uneasy as to who was coming here. She heard the door open and was stunned to see who was walking in with a briefcase.
"Hello, Miss Tsutsumi. Thank you for agreeing to meet with me on such short notice." Nezu said sitting down across from her. He smiled at her confusion.
“What do you want from me Nezu," Nagant asked as she ignored being called by her real name. She looked around to see the guards starting to file out of the room leaving the two of them alone. She was not sure what was going on, but he had her attention now.
Nezu pulled a file out of his briefcase and laid it on the table in front of her. "I want your help in bringing down a very specific corrupt group of individuals and if you help me with it I can get you released to my custody as a type of house arrest on UA property." Nezu extended his paw. “Are you interested?”
Nagant looked at Nezu before looking over the list and she started smiling at several names in particular. “Deal.” She reached over to shake his paw. “What do you want to know about them?”
Nezu gave her a feral smile. “Everything.” He said as he slid her a pen and paper.

Mina looked at her clock and decided to get some important details directly from the source. Mainly Pony. She got up and went through her morning routine and messaged Toru to see if she wanted to get there early as well. She came down the stairs dressed to the surprised look on her parent's faces at the breakfast table. She grabbed some toast and quickly downed a glass of juice. “Headed off to school! See you both later tonight!”
Mikoto blinked a few times as she watched her daughter who was the definition of 'not a morning person' had just left for school early and happy. “Something is up.” She went over and picked up the phone and called her best friend who picked up on the first ring.
“I was just about to call you Miko.”
Mikoto laughed. “Morning to you too Sarah. Great minds think alike.” She leaned up against the counter as she looked at the door her daughter had departed through. “I am going to go out on a limb and say that Toru just rushed out the door early for school.”
“Yep. Right on the money. Only one thing would get both of our daughters out of bed early for school.”
“Boy?” Mikoto asked.
“Definitely a boy.”
Mikoto looked at her husband who was reading the paper that was clenched tightly between his fingers. “I say we ambush them later tonight for the details.”
“You know me old friend I’m game.”
Mikoto got a truly mischievous smile on her face. “Well here is my plan then.”
That morning Izuku had awoken to Pony still cuddled up against his chest. He had to admit it felt nice. Their moment of peace was interrupted as Raphtalia ran into the room and when she saw them in bed together ran off to tell her grandmother. Pony scrambled to give Izuku his shirt and was standing next to the bed when Inko walked in. After Pony told her what happened Inko nodded and told them to get ready for school and breakfast would be ready shortly. They were sure that they had just dodged a bullet until they were eating their eggs and bacon when Inko causal add in English. “I already have two lovely grandchildren in the house and I am not quite ready for any more grandchildren until you are all done with school.”
Pony and Izuku choked as they inhaled their eggs. Inko started giggling at the expressions on their faces. Eri and Raphtalia didn’t understand what they were talking about since neither of them knew any English words yet. Everyone got dressed and ready for school. They left a bit early for Pony to get her school uniform from her cousin. After dropping off the girls at their classroom they hugged them both before Pony had to hurry off to meet Tetsutetsu to get her uniform.
Izuku arrived at the usual room and was about to get a notebook out to work on a few notes when he noticed that Mina, Toru, Ochako, Kyoka, Momo, Mei, and Setsuna were already in the room. “Oh, Good Morning girls.How was your night?” He had not checked their discord channel after getting up that morning.
Setsuna came over and dragged him closer to them. "Well, we heard from a reliable source that you are warm to cuddle against without a shirt on.” She latched onto one of his arms and gave him a predatory smile.
"I-uh what?" Izuku said trying to figure out how they knew already. He was planning on telling them about last night.
Ochako walked over with a determined face and took his other arm. “You are going to cuddle with us before class to make it up to us.”
Izuku looked over to the other to some kind of information.
Momo decided to take pity on him. "Pony answered your phone by accident in our group chat and it eventually came out." Momo had to calm herself after Mina had asked for a picture of his bare chest. They had already seen it at the beach and knew it was magnificent.
"Oh, I see," Izuku replied as he felt Toru hug him from behind.
They stayed like this as they swapped out giving everyone a chance to cuddle. Izuku used his clone ability just like before. Pony returned after getting changed into her school uniform and was immediately surrounded by Mina, Setsuna, and Toru who were wanting all the details. They stayed like this until it was time for them to head to class. After kisses were done they all headed for class. He went to 1-A for his scheduled homeroom for the day.
After roll call was taken everyone was brought to the auditorium for an important announcement. The Auditorium was filled with students and staff members minus a select few. The room was buzzing with different conversations as people were speculating about what this was all about. Several of his classmates looked at him for a hint, but Izuku gave them a shrug. Right at the top of the hour, Nezu walked onto the stage that caused the room to go completely silent.
Nezu took out a sheet of paper and placed it on the podium in front of him before clearing his throat. "Good Morning everyone I thank you all for taking the time for this very important announcement about some changes coming here to UA.” He looked around the Auditorium to see he had everyone’s attention. “With the recent mishap with the Media that disrupted classes last week has shown us that an upgrade to our school security was needed for the safety of all our students here on campus.”
The room started to murmur in agreement after the chaos that the media had brought to the school. "Effective Immediately any guests or members of the Media must enter through our new Visitors Entrance. After a brief visit with Security, they will be granted entrance or will be asked to leave the premises."
Nezu gestured to the right side of the stage. “I have also brought on two security specialists that will be patrolling the campus and will respond in force to handle intruders if necessary." That got everyone's attention. "May I please have the two of you come on to the stage please.”
Izuku's eyes went wide with recognition as Robo Knight walked onto the stage and followed immediately behind him walking on to the stage was another Robotic Ranger ally known as the Blue Senturion. He was an intergalactic Police Officer. This would bewell within his skills set and knowledge to assist in keeping the school safe. He did notice a slight difference from the archive footage. On the left shoulder below one of the lights was the number 17 in black letters.
“Welcome to our Campus Robo Knight and Blue Senturion to UA.” Nezu gestured to each of them as he introduced them to the Auditorium. Both of them waved to the room. The room started talking among themselves as the support students were practically drooling to have a chance to look at them up close and personal. Nezu cleared his throat again to get the attention of the room. “Now there will be time to meet with them and other members of the Security staff as the year continues.” That got the attention of the student making them wonder who else they would get to meet at a later date.
Nezu looked around the room and found his student in the crowd before sending him a discreet wink “I also wanted to inform all students that this Friday I will be announcing a new organization that will be open for students from Heroics, General, and Support to apply." Nezu had to suppress a grin as he watched the student body sit up a little straighter. He looked to see the eyes of the General Students' eyes lighting up with interest and determination.“That will all for today. Thank you all for your time and have a wonderful day.” He bowed to his students and departed the stage with Robo Knight and Blue Senturion falling in step behind him.
Izuku said goodbye to his girlfriends and headed off to his morning class with Nezu. He walked into finding his mentor leaning back in his seat with a big grin on his face. “Welcome Izuku I hope you enjoyed the announcements this morning.”
Izuku shook his head with a laugh. “That I did sir. I was surprised to see who you pick to protect the school. I was really surprised to see Blue here.”
“Mei and I found him recently as we were still going through the Command Center storage areas," DECA commented. “It appears that the Original Blue Senturion went to KO-35 in need of help. They built 16 identical copies of him to handle a large incident. This BSPS-17 or Blue Senturion Project Safety Unit 17.”
Izuku nodded at this. “I just call him Blue for now.” He looked over at Nezu. “Who is not being made public knowledge right now?” Izuku knew his mentor well enough to know he rarely if ever tipped his full hand until it was time to show his cards.
“DECA and I decided to reassembled and reactivate Alpha-5. Mei with assistance from Melissa brought him back online to have him watch over the Command Center and assist in operational support and communications.” Nezu responded with a knowing smile. “The rest will have to remain a secret for now.”
Knowing he was going to have to wait like everyone else he decided to change the subject. “So, Friday we will have Delta Base moved on Campus along with our big announcement?” Izuku knew that Nezu had gotten everyone very curious for Friday's official announcement. They had worked the numbers and knew it would bring a surge of people wanting to be a part of SPD.
“That is correct.” Nezu took a sip of his tea. “I currently have upgrades being added in as we speak and we should be ready if anyone decided to try anything on UA Campus. I know we are at 60% complete to having DECA hooked up to all of our systems to help monitor classes and to inform us of any intruders.”
"Good," Izuku said as he reached over to his stack and started looking forward to seeing what happened when it was announced that the HPSC will have direct competition.
The rest of the day was a blur of classes and questions from classmates and other students wanting to know all the details about what was going to be announced on Friday. He watched their disappointed expressions about being sworn to secrecy. He had been permitted to tell his Girlfriends and only after they promised to keep it to themselves until Friday.
The day ended with Mina and Toru having to head home for a family dinner while the others went off to the Midoriya’s apartment for movie night.
Mina and Toru had both received messages to meet at the Ashido household for a family dinner. They had been lost in conversation as they walked inside they did not notice Sarah behind them as she quietly locked the door still wearing her police uniform. Mina knew something was off when she saw her mother sitting behind a chair in the kitchen with a couple of pizza boxes on the table. “Where is dad?” Mina asked. “And where is the trio at?” It was rare for her siblings not to be home.
“Oh, the boys decided to have a guy's night out," Mikoto said with a smile. "So, it's just the four of us. We decided to have a Girls Night." She reached into the fridge to set some drinks on the table. "The trio are at a playdate with some friends and will be home later."
“Sweet it’s been so long since we had one," Toru said unaware of her mother standing behind her and Mina.
Mina looked a bit confused. She could remember that last time this happened on one hand. The last time was shortly before she started school and that was when they were both given the Talk since they were starting UA. Mina felt a chill run down her spine. "Shoot it's a trap!” She turned to see her Aunt Sarah standing behind her with a smile.
"No," Toru whispered as she realized they were trapped.
"Yes," Sarah replied taking a step close. "This was bound to happen when you two leave early for school."
Mikoto leaned forward at the table resting her chin in her hands. “Start talking or I get the DVD.” She placed said case on the table to show she was serious. “What is your decision?”
Mina and Toru sang like canaries.
Tuesday was just as much of a blur for them with teachers taking turns to train them in Heroics classes since All Might had been called away by the HPSC for a classified assignment and would not be back until Thursday at the earliest. They did several different scenarios from foot pursuit training to stealth. The other teachers rotated in to teach the Heroics classes. They had been pushing teamwork with having 1-A and 1-B working with mixed teams. Sadly, anyone who was partners with Monoma failed due to his lack of cooperation. The joint classes were helping them all work together instead of having a class rivalry.
After school was over Izuku took his Girlfriends and girls to the Command Center to meet Alpha 5. Mei was standing proudly beside him. They had found him boxed up in a crate with the help of DECA and Melissa they reassembled him and had hooked him up to the computer to be updated on current events.
“Aye-yi-yi-yi-yi!It is so good to be back online." Alpha-5 said in an excited voice. “New Rangers to help and take care of. Oh, I am so happy I just might overload.” The red light in his visor was moving back and forth quickly. He waddled around the others talking very excitedly.
Raphtalia and Eri looked at him with looks of Awe and giggled at him.
“He is like a Robotic Papa!” Raphtalia said send his girlfriends into a giggling laughing mess. Izuku blushed a little at his comparison.
Mei snorted “I now have an assistant to help me out around here.” She said looking a bit nervous at Izuku. “If you are ok with it I would like to have Melissa to helping me out around here.” She had brought her there over the weekend to help reassemble Alpha and had forgotten to ask Izuku if it was alright to bring her here.
Izuku noted the look on Mei's face. "I trust you 100%, Mei." Izuku came over to hug her and pat her on the head. "If you think she is trustworthy, then I will trust your judgment." He kissed her forehead which made her flush a bit. “In the future, please ask before bringing anyone else here.
“I Promise!” Mei said before she started making a list to include her friend in helping her get done. With Melissa and Alpha-5's help, she could get several projects started taking them off the back burner.
Izuku gave Mina, Toru, and Pony a tour since it was their first visit to the Command Center. They were all incredibly impressed with the size and technology that was around them. They all were in awe of the Zord bay. They all hung around together until they all had to get home.
DECA was working in the background. She had scanned the three girls and sent her finding to Nezu.
Wednesday afternoon training had been more physical and quirk training with both classes working together. The teachers blocked out a large part of the afternoon. It was also the first day back for Bakugo and he had not spoken to anyone except for snide comments or scoffs. He was training alone since he refused to work with anyone.
“Alright everyone please gather around," Aizawa called out to both classes near the end of their training session. Vlad King helped corral the student near a large area that looked like a warehouse full of metal shipping containers, boxes, and minimal lighting. "We are going to have a special scenario for 5 of you to try today." Aizawa gestured to Vlad King to take over.
"I have randomly picked the students from both classes that will be 4 heroes vs 1 villain in their lair." Vlad watched as the students looks surprised. He pointed to the area behind him. “This is to show you that you need to be cautious of your surrounds when you are in an enemy base with all these extra things that villains can use to their advantage.” He brought up his clipboard and read off the names of the selected participants. “Hero Team will be Denki Kaminari, Sero Hanta, Bakugo Katsuki and Hiryu Rin.” He looked over as the 4 boys moved to stand near each other. “The Villain that will have 15-minutes of prep time will be Pony Tsunotori.”
Izuku and the other looked surprised at her being chosen for this and having Bakugo participating in the exercise. He wanted to move forward but was stopped by Momo and Ochako who pointed at a determined-looking Pony walking forward standing apart from the opposing team.
“Now the Hero team will have 15 minutes to capture the Villain to be declared the winners. The villain will have to withstand the Hero team for the same about of time." Aizawa said pulling out a timer. And pointing towards the building. "Miss Tsunotori you may begin your prep time."
“Ha!” Bakugo laughed as he pointed at Pony walking towards the warehouse. “We got this in the bag since we are facing off against one dumb blonde cow!” He started laughing at her so hard he was holding his stomach.
The room became tense at his words as friends and classmates were unhappy with his attitude. Izuku felt several hands grab onto him to keep him from decking Bakugo into next week. He was sure they would let him go if he really tried.
Pony stopped walking and turned to send an angry glare at the blonde prick before she strode towards the warehouse to get it ready. She was planning a massacre and was going to put Bakugo into a world of pain before her time limit was up.
Pony entered the warehouse and started looking around. She noted that there was a crane built into the ceiling that was used to move the shipping containers. She found the controls and started getting the room prepped to her plan. She found an office and created a narrow path around it with the containers and stacked a few more on top to create a tunnel to the office door. She started creating a maze to slow the heroes down.
She knew that Bakugo and Hanta would have no issue going over them, but would require them to split up. She decided that she would fill the open space with random items for her needs from buckets to orange cones. She went into the office and found that she had camera access and found a camera that was just above her makeshift tunnel. She looked over everything before getting comfortable as she held the crane control in her hand.
The rest of the class had moved to the viewing area and they watched as Pony went to work getting the area put to her plan that got everyone smiling. "Oh, this is going to be good," Setsuna said smiling a big toothy grin at what was about to happen.
“I hope he gets his bell rung," Mina said hoping the blond dick would get his just desserts.
Izuku looked over the field she had prepared and at the 4 that had been chosen for this scenario. “Pony is going to win this.”
“Hero Team you may Enter.”
Bakugo rushed in leaving his team behind. The only person that was capable of trying to keep up with him was Sero using his tape as grapple lines. This left Kaminari and Rin following them from behind on foot. He blew in the front door and noticed that some of the lights had been turned off. He scowled as he started walking around cautiously looking for any traps. Sero arrived not long after and followed behind Bakugo from a distance. When the other two arrived inside spooky music started to play as the gears of the crane groaned as it moved to pick up random containers and set them down else ware. The four of them moved through the maze on containers and after spending about 5 minutes working there was through to an opening that a narrow tunnel leading to an office style door. Bakugo clicked his tongue in annoyance as he started walking down the tunnel preparing to destroy the door. Hanta followed close behind him
“I have a bad feeling about this.” Kaminari said as stayed back with Rin as the music was starting to make him a bit paranoid.”
"I agree something does not feel right," Rin said covering his arm with scales while looking around the room for their opponent. The warehouse sent silent for a moment before a new soundtrack started playing.
(Agent Texas - RVB OST)
The door to the office blew outwards as her horns launched it so fast that it caught Bakugo and Hanta off guard sending them flying out of the tunnel onto the ground underneath the door. Kaminari and Rin looked to see Pony standing in the doorway with a bright light outlining her. She punched her fist and cracked her neck left and right. "You boys don't know the kind of trouble you're in."
Kaminari's eyes went a little wide. "Oh shit."
Rin took a step back “Run.”
Rin started launching scales in her direction trying to keep her in the tunnel.
Pony responded by rapidly firing her horns to counteract him as she ran towards the two-left standing. She stomped on the door that had the trapped members underneath it squishing them slightly to the floor. She went on the offensive punching and kicking at Rin causing him to block her attacks.
Kaminari rushed forward trying to assist by trying to zap her to end the fight quickly. He charged up his hands as he reached for her.
Pony heard footsteps behind her and decided to kick a metal empty paint can she had left out earlier at the person coming up behind her. She hit Kaminari square in the chest catching him off guard and sending him crumpling to the ground. She grabbed Rin by his wrist and flipped him over her shoulder and noted that Bakugo was getting up growling like an angry dog. She darted down a pathway she created and picked up a pipe she had set up earlier. She was expecting him to run around the corner to hit him in the chest, but he came flying around the corner, and when she swung the pipe hit him dead center to the family jewels.
Back in the viewing room, all the males in the room winced at this. Several of the girls started laughing at Bakugo's misfortune.
Bakugo's world was filled with pain as he lost focus and fell to the ground gasping for air while he was holding his boys for dear life.
“Homerun!” Pony shouted as she dropped the pipe before darting back towards the others. She noted Hanta was almost on his feet. She summoned a pair of horns to ride she jumped on rushing to punch him in the face as he turned towards her. Hanta went back down to the ground with a groan. She turned to watch as Rin started launching scales at her again while chasing after her and was able to hit one of her horns.
Pony jumped from her horns as she continued to run away on her hooves. She went to head down another path when an angry Bakugo had stepped in in front of her path. His face was that of pure rage as his hands were popping with explosions. She glanced back long enough to see Rin was still firing his scales at her. She looked to see Bakugo was standing in a wide stance. She continued running towards the blonde and slide between his legs dodging his attack in the process. Rin realized too late after he launched another set of scales hitting Bakugo once again in the balls. Pony laughed as she disappeared from sight.
The viewing room was filled with laughter as they watched the rabid blonde take a second low blow while being outmaneuvered by Pony. Most if not all of the girls had tears running down their faces from laughing.
Bakugo fell forwards once again while screaming in pain. “Watch where you’re launching those things you scaly fucker!” He snapped. Bakugo was furious that he was hit in the balls twice. He heard that cow laughing at his misfortune. He felt his rage building as he got to his feet suppressing the pain as he chased after that bitch.
Things did not improve for the Hero Team as the match continued. Pony had them constantly chasing her. She had been fighting them with hit and run tactics. Bakugo at this point was a being of pure rage as chased after her. He refused to work with his teammates as he wanted payback. Kaminari, Rin, and Hanta were working together to try and corral her, but their efforts were hampered by Bakugo rushing in every time to attack her solo.
Pony had taken advantage of this by using the remote for the crane to randomly pick up and drop boxes to block the path behind her. This had been a lot of fun for her since she got to work off some anger at Bakugo.
Five Minutes Remaining Hero Team
Pony smiled and decided that it was time for her to go on the offensive. She watched as her prey fell right into her trap. The four of them had gathered near the office after she blocked off the exits with containers.
Kaminari was panting as he leaned up against a container trying to catch his breath. They had been chasing their opponent all over the place and almost got a contained dropped on him for his trouble. Hanta and Rin were the same. They were getting tired. Bakugo was almost frothing like a rabid dog as he could not pin that bitch down. He looked around to see the extras were near him. they were almost back to back
Pony road her horns just above them before she dropped down for a beatdown they would never forget. As she landed on the ground her hooves clicked loud enough causing her 4 opponents to turn towards her. She punched Hanta in the stomach causing him to double over. She quickly grabbed Hanta’s collar and threw him hard helmet first towards Bakugo groin.
Bakugo had started moving forward when that Tape moron was sent headfirst into his groin. He called out as he fell over once again. “FUCK!” He screamed out in frustration and pain.
Pony focused on Rin as he rushed forward trying to put pressure on Pony was able to dodge or deflect his fists. After another exchange of blows, she delivered a quick uppercut taking him out of the fight. Pony turned her attention towards Kaminari who was looking around the room.
Kaminari was glancing at his teammates. And he was the only one standing at the moment. He was not skilled in hand to hand. He rushed forward as hoping to get a quick hit against Pony. He started channeling electricity into his hands again for another attempt.
Pony watched as her opponent's hands started sparking. She dodged Kaminari's fists and delivered a roundhouse kick to his side sending him to the floor. She looked up to see Bakugo had tossed his partner off him and slowly rose to his feet.
He lunged forward letting off a massive explosion to increase his speed as he launched a savage kick towards her head. She quickly launched her horns in response forcing him to break off his attack to dodge. Soon it was a vicious battle between the two of them. Bakugo was sending explosions at Pony who was nimble enough to dodge or was able to avoid the brunt of his attacks. Both of them were not backing down from their fight. Bakugo sent an explosion towards Pony’s face trying to take her out.
Pony brought her arms up to protect her face. She felt the heat from the explosion as she stood her ground and decided to go Plus Ultra. She sent a punch into Bakugo’s right shoulder, then followed up the several quick jabs to his face.
Bakugo immediately brought his hands up to protect his face from her punches and snarled. He swung another explosion towards her trying to get her off balance.
Pony dropped into a crouch to dodge his attack and rushed back up punching the blonde bomber in the stomach causing him to double over. Pony continued to press her attack as she brought her knee up hitting him in the face sending him onto his back on the ground. Pony decided to go for the finishing blow. She lunged forward punching downward full force at Bakugo.
Bakugo grunted as his back hit the ground once again. He decided to do a kick-up to get back into the fight. He was halfway up when his world exploded into pain.
Pony was aiming at the blonde's chest when he decided to kick up. This brought her fist on a direct course with his balls. The full force of her fist connected and she could have sworn she heard the sound of glass breaking.
Bakugo was unable to scream in that instant for the sheer amount of pain from that hit.
TIME IS UP THE VILLAIN WINS!
"What is your problem with my balls you god damn cow?" Bakugo rasped out as he looked up from the ground still holding his family jewels. He was royally pissed to have lost to her. This was the second exercise that he had lost since he arrived at UA. He was supposed to be the future number #1 Hero. He was supposed to be the second coming of All Might. That is what all his teachers had been telling him for years.
Pony looked at him with a cruel smile. "Were those your balls? Oh, sorry I wasn't sure since I have never punched something that small before.” She turned away walking out of the warehouse.
He watched as the medical bots came to take them all to the Nurses Office.
Bakugo was the last member of the group to be loaded onto a stretcher. He was beyond furious at this point. How was he going to be able to show these worthless extra their place with these setbacks? First his suspension because of that bastard Deku during his first battle and now his first day back was supposed to be his rise from the ashes hero moment, but he was beaten by a damn foreigner. If his damn worthless teammates had just stayed out of his way they would have won easily. Now he just wanted to get to the Nurses Office and get some goddamn ice for balls. He swore revenge for his balls.
When he got to the Nurse Office he saw his Aunt Inko was treating the extras and was about to say something, but she sent him a glare as she handed him a rather large ice pack that put the fear of God into him. He wisely thanked her for the ice and remained quiet during his stay. He knew better than to make her angry from the stories he heard from the Old Hag and from when he was younger.
Pony walked into the viewing room to excited cheers from both classes. Mina and Setsuna rushed forward and hugged her. They eventually carried her on their shoulders. Pony was beaming with joy as she looked to see her classmates chanting her name. Soon Aizawa got the classes under control.
“Alright everyone needs to settle down.” He said as the students quieted down and got seated again. The only ones that were missing were the students being checked out by the Recovery Girl. “Now I want to congratulate Miss Tsunotori on her well-prepared lair and making use of her surrounds to her advantage when she was outnumbered.”
Vlad King smiled as his student before getting a serious look on his face. “That being said, Miss Tsunotori in the future please refrain from those kinds of low blows to your fellow students during training sessions." Vlad King had to wince at each one of those hits from sympathy pains. He also knew that she was stronger than she looked.
Pony put on the most innocent look on her face she could muster. “But I was portraying a villain, right? As future Pros should we not be prepared for villains that fight dirty including low blows?" Pony maintained her look as long as possible. This caused her classmates to snicker at this as Vlad King and Aizawa shared a looked.
“She has a point. It is perfectly logical.” Aizawa said making a note to be careful when sparing with her. “Villains don’t play by the rules and they are here to learn.”
Vlad King dropped his head into his hand. “You know what. Class Dismissed.” He went off to his office to get away for a moment. He made a mental note to not spar with her for a while until he knew his own bits were safe from that kind of trauma.
“I see. Thank you for letting me know Chairman. Leave everything else to me.” All for One hung up the phone before looking at Kurogiri who was waiting patiently at his side. He handed the phone to his assistant and cleared his throat. "They will be at the USJ tomorrow morning at 9am. Please inform Tomura to have his people ready to go.”
“I will see to it that it is done. Sensei.” Kurogiri replied with a bow and had opened a portal to teleport away. When he was stopped by All for One.
“Let him know I am sending someone to help him. he will still be in charge of the mission, but I am sending a little extra muscle just in case.” All for One knew that he was having to lead the boy by the nose and this was to ensure the success of his mission.
"Of Course, Sensei," Kurogiri said with a bow and walked into his portal.
After a moment of silence, Dark Spectre spoke. “Are you sure it is a good idea to trust that child to lead his makeshift army?” His tone was full of annoyance.
“It will help groom him to become my eventual successor.” All for One replied automatically. It was true had had hope that Tomura would grow up and become the villain he hoped would succeed him. But right now he was brash, immature, and childish. “I know he has recruited more villains than originally planned since we had an extra week to prepare.”
Dark Spectre growled at this. "I will instruct my general to follow his orders, but If he fails then he will become my General's subordinate and they will do as they wish with your precious student.”
“I agree. Should he fail your General may do as they wish with him. It will show him the price for his failure.” All For One said with a nod of his head. He was planning on punishing Tomura if he failed anyway and this would free him up to focus his attention on other important projects.
“Good.” Dark Spectre said with a low rumble. “We need to hurry along your Doctor I am getting impatient waiting for our Enforcers.”
“I understand, but so far only 3 have survived the process out of 20 candidates so far." All for One said in a matter-of-fact tone. "I know we have more candidates being abducted as we speak." It had been an inconvenience on the delays, but he had been alive for over two centuries and he had learned the value of patience.
Thursday morning Both 1-A and 1-B were brought to a room and on the board was written Rescue Training. “All Right everyone we will be heading to the USJ today for rescue training and No, it does not mean Universal Studio Japan," Aizawa said quickly when Kaminari and Mina started getting excited. "It stands for Unforeseen Simulation Joint. We will be teaching you all to react to different rescue scenarios for the entire day."
“Both classes will be shuffled when we get there with each exercise to give you all the chance to work together with different teams each time.” Vlad King added as he looked over the roster. “Since Monoma is out due to a family emergency we will have an even number of students." Vlad was secretly relieved about this since it would mean they only had to deal with one volatile student namely Bakugo. "The teachers will be Myself, Aizawa, Thirteen, and Mt. Lady as your instructors for today.”
“Go get into your Hero suits and be ready for the buses to depart in 15 minutes," Aizawa said causing the student to hurry out of the room to get changed. After he was sure all the students were gone he looked over at Vlad. “Got you panic button?”
“Yes.” Vlad kind said patting her belt pouch. It was discussed in the Teachers Meeting that the staff would be on standby to respond if anything happened. All Might would hopefully be back soon. He had told Nezu he would be back on campus either before or during the USJ training. He was grateful that Mt. Lady had volunteered to come along to give them some extra help with corralling 40 students.
"Good, I have mine as well," Aizawa said. He had felt uneasy as he got up this morning. He hoped it was him just being over-cautious. He looked at the clock and headed out to the bus. He sent Emi a quick message.
Me: Heading to USJ with class. Just want to say I Love you Emi. Message you when I am done.
He put his phone away and got comfortable on the bus bench in his sleeping bag as he waited for the bus to depart.
Izuku waved at his friends in 1-A as he got on the bus with 1-B. He sat next to the window as Setsuna took the spot beside him and Pony behind him.
"So, are you ready for some fun today?" Setsuna asked as she leaned against Izuku's shoulder. She had beaten Pony in Rock-Paper-Scissors to sit next to him.
Izuku nodded his head. "Yeah, I am interested in learning rescue skills. I hope we can have fun today." He was looking forward to learning from Thirteen and getting to train at the USJ. His sisters always talked about how cool it was and he had not gotten to train there yet.
“At least they will be bringing us a hot meal during our lunch break. “Pony chimed in. On the paperwork, it was stated that Lunch Rush would be bringing out food for them before they started their afternoon training sessions.
“Definitely.” Setsuna agreed as glad to see she would not have to do a full day of training with only a cold lunch. "Guess we will see how cool this place is."
"I heard from a couple of upperclassmen that it is pretty amazing to see," Pony added from behind them. She had been talking with Ibara during their ride over to the USJ.
As they walked inside the USJ all the students were in awe of the sheer size of the place. It was so big that Izuku was pretty sure several of his Zords could fit comfortably in there. As they came to where Mt. Lady and Thirteen were waiting for them Izuku got to watch as Ochako was having a fangirl moment.
"OMG! it's Thirteen!" Ochako squealed with delight as she started rambling off countless facts she knew off the top of her head. She was practically bouncing with excited energy. When she saw how much she was talking and bouncing around her face became bright red.
Kyoka came over to pat her friend on the back to make sure she didn’t start floating away. “It’s ok Ochako. We have all seen Izuku do it many times.” She whispered as gave her a wink. The gravity girl did feel a bit better.
As soon as the safety briefing was over and Vlad and Aizawa started giving instruction to the class. “All right everyone now we will break you up into random groups of-.” He stopped when the lights started flickering and Kaminari cried out in pain holding his ears. A Portal opened up as a large group of people started walking through it.
“Is this part of the exercise?” Kirishima asked as he clenched his fists. Melissa mirrored his actions as she placed a hand on her spear.
"No," Aizawa said shortly. "Mt. Lady, Thirteen protect the students and get them out of here."
Vlad cracked his knuckles and walked next to his fellow hero. “My panic button is being jammed.”
“As is mine," Aizawa said pulling his goggles over his eyes.
Izuku tensed and tapped him commlink. “DECA do you read me?” Izuku felt a pit in his stomach for a moment before he got a response.
“I read you Izuku. I am detecting unknown energy signatures at your location that seems to be jamming standard communications.” DECA responded quickly. “I am alerting Nezu at this time. Standby for back-up.”
“Copy that Thank you. Advise him we have unknowns at the USJ.” Izuku took a step forward. “Mr. Aizawa, Nezu has been informed and reinforcements are being mobilized.” Izuku took a look around. He noted 4 people standing apart from the rest of the group. A monster bird-like creature, someone covered in hands, another in a nice suit with a face obscured by black-looking clouds, and the last figure was covered in a black hooded robe.
"Good Izuku. Now let the teachers handle it." Aizawa said knowing that it would be roughly 5-10 minutes before help could be mobilized and get them here.
“Anyone got a prayer they want to say before this all goes sideways?” Hitoshi asked as villains started to appear through the portal. He moved into his ready stance.
“It the immortal words of Jay-Z. Whatever Deity may guild my life, Dear God don’t let me die tonight.” Kyoka said cracking her knuckles for a fight. “But if I die before I wake. I’d accept my fate.”
“Hell yeah!” Kirishima and Tetsutetsu exclaim together.
"That is not a prayer," Ibara added holding her cross in hand saying a proper prayer.
"That does not fill me with much confidence," Hitoshi replied looking around the area.
Izuku tapped his visor to start scanning anyone he could see in front of him.
Tomura grinned as he looked around the warehouse at the villains he had been able to recruit for this job. All of them wanted to kill All Might and with the promise of a lot of money, they all joined without a moment's hesitation. He had almost two hundred minions and they were starting to get antsy wanting some action.
He looked at his watch excitedly at the fact it was almost time for them to go attack the overhyped UA. He looked around to Kurogiri standing up straight waiting for orders. He looked over to see the Nomu awaiting his every instruction as a good little pet should. It had been created to be his ultimate trump card. An All Might killer.
The only unknown person was this person that arrived dressed in a full hooded robe. He was told that Sensei had vouched for them as extra muscle. He scoffed at this since the Nomu was more than enough to handle All Might and a bunch of snot-nosed brats. “Oi, Noob.” He called out to robe figure. When they didn’t respond Tomura growled and moved closer “Hey I am talking to you!” he reached out to grab them by the shoulder to get their attention.
Tomura was surprised as a golden armored gauntlet grabbed him by the wrist. He nearly fell to his knees when they started squeezing his wrist tight enough to nearly break it. “You will not touch me, you filthy little monkey.” The figure said in a low menacing tone. Tomura was surprised to hear it was a woman’s voice underneath the robes. She let go of his wrist withdrawing her hand back into her robe.
Tomura jerked his arm back sending her an infuriated glare at her. “Just remember that I am in charge Woman.” He walked over to Kurogiri looking at his watch again. “Let’s go kill All Might.”
"As you wish," Kurogiri replied as he started opening up various portals. He sent large groups to the different zones as they had planned. He opened the last portal for them to enter the main courtyard.
Tomura started scratching his neck as he looked around. "Where is All Might?" He asked as he kept looking around for his target. He noted Vlad King, Thirteen, and Aizawa that were listed on the file he gotten from Sensei. He noticed that Mt. Lady was here instead of the All Might as the listed teacher. He looked back at Kurogiri. “All Might is supposed to be here.” He was furious that he had received faulty quest info.
"He may be running behind," Kurogiri replied trying not to sigh.
Tomura sneered at that. “I wonder how many NPC’s we will have to kill before we get the main boss will spawn.” He started imagining the bodies of the worthless NPS’s laying all over the place when All Might arrived. It just might be enough to break his spirit. “Kill as many as you can. Let’s see how long it will take for him to arrive.”
The villains started smiling at this and started moving towards the students and staff except for the hooded woman.
"Oi, I told you to go kill them," Tomura said grinding his teeth at her inaction.
The woman remained still head moving left to right as if she was looking around. “I am here for a specific target.” The hood turned to face him. “I have a special prey I want to play with. Don’t get in my way.”
Toshinori let out a tired sigh as he dropped off the last of the paperwork and was on his way to UA to help out for the Heroics Class at the USJ. He was almost back to the campus. He hoped that he had not missed too much. He wanted to be there for Melissa's first rescue training lessons. He knew it had started not too long ago and wanted to at least make an appearance.
He was halfway to UA when his phone started ringing. It was Nezu. "Hello, Sir. I am almost back to cam-." He was interrupted by Nezu.
“USJ is under attack.”
Toshinori's heart dropped at those words. "What! How?" He asked looked around to find a place to park his truck. He could get there faster if needed on foot.
"Unknown at this point. Izuku was able to get out an SOS. We are mobilizing forces now. We will be able to responding in force."
"I will head there right now," Toshinori replied pulling his truck into a parking lot. He turned off the truck. "I will hold them off until you all arrive.
“Good Luck.”
He buffed up and took off for the USJ.
“Please let me get there in time.” All Might said running at top speed.
“Izuku I am transferring communications over to Alpha-5. I am currently working on getting you assistance alongside Nezu.” DECA said in his ear.
"Copy that," Izuku replied as his visor was still scanning. "Alpha anything coming in on matches?” Izuku had started walking away when he heard Alpha-5’s response. He watched as Vlad King and Mr. Aizawa walked towards the villains prepared to fight.
“All low-level criminal with lengthy arrest records. I am still working on them Izuku.”’
"Thank you, Alpha," Izuku said turning to leave as his scanned completed and was waiting for results. He followed up the rear. He watched as his classmates were moving with a purpose towards the exit.
They were halfway to the door when the man in the suit appeared in front of them. Izuku tensed and readied his Morpher.
“Hello, I am Kurogiri and I am afraid I cannot allow any of you to leave the party so soon.” He gestured to everyone in front of him. “Especially since you are all our guests of honor for this fabulous day.”
Thirteen moved in front of the class. “Really? What day is that.” She asked preparing to hit him with her quirk. She had a clear line of sight and her students were behind her. Mt. Lady was moving to the other side to assist if needed.
“Why is the day All Might Dies and UA will fall from grace as its students fall alongside their Symbol of Peace.” He straightened his tie as he started to move forward.
Izuku was waiting for Thirteen and Mt. Lady to make the first move when Bakugo, Kirishima, and Tetsutetsu rushed forward right as Thirteen had opened the tips of her gloves.
"Wait! Stop you three!" Thirteen called out as they jumped towards Kurogiri. She immediately closed her gloves so she did not harm her students.
Bakugo let off a massive explosion and was laughing as he shouted "Ha! Get fucked creep." He was sure the prick was down for the count. He was surprised to see that the villain was unharmed. “What the Fuck?”
Kurogiri merely wiped off the soot from his soot. "Oh dear, that was rather close. I can see I will have to separate you all." He waved his hand and portals appeared under many of the students. Several of the students tried to grab their classmates. Ibara grabbed a few before she disappeared. Fumikage lunged towards Tsu as they fell through with Melissa, Kaminari, and Mineta. Momo grabbed hold of Kyoka as they fell through a portal with Mina, Toru, and Pony.
Izuku was trying to keep track of his classmates when he fell through a portal. He looked up to see Setsuna and Ochako call out for him when he fell to the ground. He groaned before looking up to see he was near Aizawa and Vlad King who were fighting villains. He jumped to his feet and morphed. “It’s Morphin Time! SPD Emergency! SPD Red!” He watched as a few villains stopped to look at him. He joined into the fray to help out both of his teachers.
“I thought I told you to let us handle this?” Eraserhead asked his student as he took down another villain.
Izuku dodged a swing at his head before taking the attacker down with an uppercut. “I was following your instructions sir, but I was brought here by the portal villain.” Izuku drew his Delta Blasters and prepares for the next round.
“Less talking, more fighting.” Vlad King chimed in as he took out a pair of villains be slamming their heads together.
A feminine laugh brought the fighting to a halt as the villains back away from the hooded figure approached the Heroes. "Finally! I get to fight the one I am after." The figure grabbed the hood and threw it away. Underneath was a tan-skinned woman wearing golden armor. The left arm was covered in a gauntlet and in her right hand was a boomerang-like sword.
Before Izuku could ask Alpha contacted him. “Aye-yi-yi-yi-yi! Izuku! That is Scorpina. She was one of Rita Repulsa's most powerful warriors. Proceed with extreme caution.”
Izuku nodded his head. “Thank you, pass that along to DECA and the others.” He took a step forward aiming his blasters at Scorpina. “Sir, I will handle her.”
Eraserhead nodded his head knowing that this woman was out of his league. He took a step back and focused his attention on the remaining villains and their leader with the white hair standing next to the bird-looking thing. "Come on, Vlad. We have other villains to take care of.”
"Right Behind you Eraser," Vlad said stepping back with his fellow teacher. He had a bad feeling about the woman in the gold.
Izuku adjusted his grip on his blaster. “Alpha, please disable Safety Mode.” He was not going to take any chances with this fight.
“It's done Izuku, Good Luck.”
Izuku watched as his opponent take a battle stance. “This is your chance to walk away Scorpina.” Izuku was wanting to search for her friends and girlfriends. He was sure they were in danger and now he was having to defeat Scorpina first, then search for his friends.”
Scorpina laughed. “It has been a long time since I have got to have any kind of fun.” She raised her sword above her shoulder. “I have been looking forward to fighting a Power Ranger again.”
They squared off against each other both tense as they waited for the other to make the first move. Izuku rushed forward firing off his blasters. Scorpina moved her blade to deflect his attacks. Their fight had just started.
Haywire stepped out of the portal and into the main control room of the USJ. He grinned as he ran his fingers along with the expensive console. He had always preferred technology to living people. His quirk Override allowed for him to take over and control and system he touched. He had a limit of 30 minutes but would be more than enough time for what they had planned. Shigaraki had recruited him specifically for his quirk. He was tasked with high jacking the UA security systems while another person was tasked with jamming all outgoing signals.
Haywire was already working towards taking over the system completely. As he did he found something very interesting. It seems that there was a broadcasting system that had been added several years ago. It was an emergency broadcasting beacon that could take over every TV Screen and send out alerts of important information across phones and web browsers. After he had taken complete control of the last Security system he had an idea.
This was going to be the day All Might was supposed to die and quite possibly many of these wretched hero students. He would show the world that rejected and ridiculed him that they had made a mistake. He wanted revenge from UA for rejecting him all those years ago. He took over the Broadcasting systems and fired it up. He watched as the systems warmed up. He started recording everything. He could upload it later if needed. He saw the signal was jammed along with everything else. A minor setback.
Haywire grinned manically thinking about the entire country was going to watch and listening to everything his boss was saying. All of Japan would watch this glorious day. It would be a day in history that everyone would be talking about it for ages.
He looked around the room and found what he was looking for. He smiled as he walked over to a panel marked Trunk Line. This would allow him to bypass the jamming with a direct line to have his broadcast sent without any more setbacks. He also decided to encrypt his broadcast as well. He was not taking any chances.
He made a few connections and watched as the status went from Block to Transmitting.
Soon all of Japan was watching and listening to everything that was happening at the USJ. Pro Heroes from all over were responding to the attack. Family members were shocked to see their children on TV as villains were started to appear fighting the Teachers and Students. UA was flooded with calls from frightened parents, the press, and the government.
The Battle at the USJ had officially Begun.

Chapter Text
Izuku leaned back to dodge the angled blade of his opponent. He brought his blasters up to fire several more shots close range at Scorpina. She twisted away almost unnaturally from his shots with ease and went on the offensive against him. She watched as he deflected her attacks away with one blaster and attempted to shoot her with the other. Both were exchanging kicks or punched whenever they could. Izuku managed to get a couple of shots into her chest as she had slid in an upward slash against his chest. Sparks flew from both combatants.
They both fell backward and recovered quickly by rolling to their feet and resuming their standoff once again.
"You not completely terrible little Ranger." Scorpina mocked taken a step to her right. "It seems you have some training after all. That will make our fight a lot more enjoyable for me." She readied her sword to charge him again.
Shouta and Vlad King had taken down the last of the minor villains with little trouble. Both men were surprised to see the man with a hand over his face and the bird-like creature had not moved the entire time.
"I see you went with quantity not quality when you chose you, thugs," Eraserhead said as he tightened his grip on his capture scarf. "Surrender now and you may get some leniency as long as our students are unharmed.”
Vlad had moved over to stand shoulder to shoulder with his fellow teacher. “Your pathetic thugs won't be able to take out our students. Just surrender before this gets any further out of hand." He wanted to put an end to this and check on his students. He knew they were skilled, but this would be their first interactions with real villains. He would be lying to himself if he would say he was not concerned for their safety.
“My name is Shigaraki and I am not interested in either of you worthless NPC's," Tomura said scratching the side of his neck. "I am after All Might. The Symbol of Peace. If I need to kill a bunch of worthless trash to make him spawn here so be it.” He pointed to the large creature that had been faithfully standing right next to him. “This is Nomu. He was carefully engineered to be able to fight and kill All Might.”
Eraserhead narrowed his eyes at the large Nomu in front of him. ‘Engineered to kill All Might?’ He thought feeling in the pit in his stomach starting to growlarger. “We’ve both been doing this for a while and we’ve fought bigger meatheads than him before.”
Vlad Kind started to form blades of blood in his hands. “The bigger they are the harder they fall.” He tensed his muscles ready to spring into action.
Tomura shrugged with disinterest. “This is a pointless conversation for this quest. Nomu kill these two, but try to entertain me as best you can with their deaths.” He pointed at the two teachers as the Nomu lunged forward.
Izuku glanced over to see the Nomu rushing towards his teachers at an almost inhuman speed and fired off several shots at its knees and elbows. His shots were dead on and watched the thing collapse to the ground in front of them with a bellow. He barely dodged a surprise attack from Scorpina as she had attempted taking the opening he had created when he attacked the Nomu to assist his teachers
"If you surrender I promise that you will be treated very well and you will live a nice long life in comfort as my pet.” Scorpina offered as she rested her sword on her shoulder.
Izuku took a deep breath to calm himself as he took a step back. "I will politely have to decline your offer Scorpina." He replied switching his Morpher. “Dragonzord!” He drew his Dagger and summoned his Power Sword to his opposite hand.
Scorpina quirked a brow at his changed form. “Ah, I remember this Ranger suit quite well, “ Her eyes flashed a wicked-looking yellow. "Back when a Young Tommy Oliver was under Rita's Spell and was one of my allies fighting against the Power Rangers.” She gave him a fake pout. “I was so sad to see the other Rangers free him so quickly. “She held her pointer finger and thumb less than an inch apart. "I was this close to having Tommy as my personal plaything, but why cry over ancient history.” She gave him a malicious grin.
Izuku gave her shook his head at her. “Still not interested Scorpina.” He lunged forward to meet her blade with his own.
Shouta and Vlad King blinked for a moment when they watched the Nomu fall to the ground in front of them with holes where its knees had been and its arms barely attached at the elbows. He looked over at his student having to dodge his opponent's sword. "I am giving him a pass on homework for the month," Eraserhead said looking at the stunned look on Shigaraki's face at his Nomu laying on the ground.
"Not if I do it first," Vlad said keeping an eye on the Nomu as it roared on the ground. "I'll keep an eye on this thing while you take the creepy hand guy.”
Eraserhead nodded as focused his attention on the person behind this attack. "Let me know if you need any help." He wanted to have a long chat with this guy.
“CHEATER! CHEATER! YOU CAN’T DO THAT!” Shigaraki screamed in anger. “YOU CAN’T JUST INTERFERE LIKE THAT! CHEATER! CHEATER!”
Ochako had to suppress the urge to panic as she watched her classmates disappear into various portals. They could be anywhere for all she knew. She looked around taking stock of the current situation. She knew that her classmates had been sent somewhere. Currently, both Class Presidents were missing at the moment leaving Ochako and Setsuna in charge of their remaining classmates. She knew that Izuku had sent out an SOS to the Principal shortly before falling into a portal and that backup was on its way to them.
“Where did you send my students?” Mt. Lady asked almost growling as she moved closer to Kurogiri. She was needed to find out where he sent her brother and her students.
Kurogiri chuckled. “Oh, I send them here and there.” He answered vaguely as he relaxed around the remaining group. From his reports, he had sent most of the powerful students away. He was sure that he could handle the remnants with little or no problem. His only real concern was the two girls that could become Rangers. He would have to be cautious of them, but he was sure he could handle a bunch of children while he was distracting the Pros.
Mt. Lady cracked her knuckles. "Well, you're going to tell us where you sent them one way or another.” She rushed forward trying to get in close. She was moving towards his right side when he tried to open a portal near her. Before it could affect her, it was sucked into one of Thirteens fingers.
"I guess I will have to give you both my full attention," Kurogiri said rolling up his sleeves slightly as he squared off against them.
Ochako shifted closer to Setsuna. “Any idea?” She asked not taking her eyes of the villain. She wanted to find a way to help everyone and still have somewhere safe for everyone to fall back to.
Setsuna looked around and nodded her head. "I think I got one. She separated her mouth and whispered into Ochako's ear. After getting a nod from Ochako, Setsuna whispered the plan to their remaining classmates nearby.
Ibara had felt weightless as she fell through the portal with several of her classmates. She reached out with her vines to grab her fellow students and help slow their descent to the ground. The rain was cold and heavy as it poured around them. She looked around to see they were in an urban area with buildings around them. "Is everyone alright?" She asked her classmates.
Koda gave her a slight nod of the head before he started looking around.
Shoji nodded his head and gave her a thumbs-up as he formed ears on his hands to start listening to the surrounding area around him.
"Yeah, I am fine Ibara," Kosei replied slightly unhappy about how drenched he was already.
Shishida growled in annoyance as he looked up to where the portal had been. "Yeah, I'm good. We need to get back to our friends."
"Agreed," Ibara replied as she started looking for the best way to get back. "Anyone have any idea of which way to go?" She had only got the barest look at the map when they arrived thinking they had all day to learn the full layout.
Shoji pointed to the left. “I can hear Thirteen and Mt. Lady’s voice coming from that direction.” He pointed in that direction they needed to travel. “Also, we have company about to arrive in front of our path to get back to our friends.” He tensed up as he heard footsteps approaching. Varies villains started to move closer as their silhouettes were starting to become visible even in the heavy rain.
“I found em boss.” One of them calls out as they lead the group closer to them.
“Good let’s kill them and get out of this god-awful rain.” The leader called out to his group of thugs as they moved closer to them.
"Well, I can see we will have to fight our way out," Ibarasays as she stretches out her vines. She was slightly stronger being around this much water to feed her vines. “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” She held her cross around her neck in one of her hands as she finished her prayer.
“Let’s do it.” Shoji agrees as cracks 3 sets of knuckles. “Our classmates may need some help.”
Kosei rotated his neck as he let air wrap around his arms. “I’m ready to blow these guys away.”
Shishida start to loosen up his muscles as he grinned. "Well, I would hate to leave our intruders without anything to do. It's time to get wild."
Koda started talking to any animals that could help them. He may not like to fight but he was going to support his fellow classmates. Within a few moments, he got a response from the animals that had made this area their home.
The five of them did not have to wait long as the villains started to charge towards them.
Fumikage looked as he was freefalling high above a large lake with a boat in the middle. He had just watched as Melissa had fallen through a type of branch tunnel off their portal sending her else ware. He tried to reach her but missed reaching her by the tips of his fingers.
He could see Tsu was just ahead of him and tucked in his arms to gain a bit more speed. As he got closer He had Dark Shadow reached out to grab Tsu and Komori pulling them close, while Fumikagewas able to grab Kaminari by his collar. Mineta was still freefalling when Tsu shot out her tongue and grabbed his around the chest. Dark Shadow expanded himself out acting like a parachute guiding them towards the boat.
As they landed on the boat it was Kaminari, Komori, and Mineta all let out a sigh of relief as they laid on their backs on the deck clutching their chests.
"Oh, God. I thought I was going to become a grape smear in the water!" Mineta exclaimed as he started crying. He rolled over and started o kiss the deck repeatedly.
“Thanks for the save there Fumi," Kaminari said giving his feathered friend a shaky thumbs-up. "I am so glad you were there to save me from falling into the water and shorting out.” He had started clutching his rosary under his shirt as he thanked God for the miraculous save.
"T-Thank you for the save," Komori added in a quiet voice as was still clutching her chest with both hands. She was terrified of heights and falling from so high up had nearly sent her into a full-blown panic attack as she felt the Dark Shadow wrap his hands around her. She just wanted to lay on the deck until her heart was not beating out of her chest.
Tsu had turned around and gave Fumikage a tight hug letting out a shuddering breath. "Thank you, Kero." She stayed like that for a few moments before stepping back. Her cheeks had a light dusting of a blush.
Fumikage felt his feathers ruffle slightly in embarrassment at this. "You are welcome, Tsu. I am just grateful I was able to get there in time." Dark Shadow appeared beside him and bowed his head towards everyone. “Glad everyone is safe.”
“I wouldn’t say we are safe just yet. Kero.” Tsu added as she looked over the side of the boat. “Take a look.” She pointed down towards the water.
Fumikage and the other looked over to see the water was filled with a couple dozen villains scattered around the boat. “So, they were waiting for us to arrive.” He could see that most if not all of them had some time of water-based Quirk.
Mineta started crying even harder. “I don’t wanna die!” he cried walking back and forth quickly across the deck. "I don't want to die a virgin!" He was not paying attention to the disgusted look on his classmate's faces.
Kaminari scanned the water and found that they were dead center in the lake with no way of getting to the shore without having to go through the villains in the water. “I don’t think they planned on sending us here.”
Komori looked at him confused. “What makes you say the shroom?”
Fumikage nodded at this. “Tsu is fast in the water. It is where she thrives, Kaminari is a walking electrical battery that can shock anyone in the water. If they knew our abilities then I think we would have been sent to different places around here that would put us at a disadvantage.”
“What are we going to do?” Komori asked looking at her fellow classmates. She didn’t want to stay here waiting for them to come after them.
Before anyone could answer a loud sound of metal being groaning got their attention. They looked over the side of the boat to see one of the villains had started tearing a hole in the side of the boat about the size of a basketball causing the ship to slowly start filling with water.
“We need to think of something fast before we are neck-deep in water and surrounded by villains," Fumikage said looking around at the classmates. Mineta was on the floor curled up into a ball. He looked at Kaminari, Tsu, and Komori. He was starting to form a decent plan that just might work. “I think I have an idea.”
Izuku locked blades with Scorpina as she tried to aim for his neck. He knew that she was up to something when she vanished like smoke in the wind. He looked around trying to find her. He heard laughter coming from all around him.
“Poor little Ranger all alone against the big bad Scorpina.” The voice taunted all around him as he had his weapons ready to react. Dust swirled up slightly as Izuku kept his head on swivel looking for her. “If only you had just surrendered like a good boy instead of fighting me this could already have been over.”
Izuku felt her blade strike him across the back sending him forward and sparks showered down around him. He rolled over to see her charging with a downward strike. Izuku rolled out of the way and was back on his feet. He watched as blue lightning started to form in her hand. Izuku quickly ran his fingers along the edge of his dagger. As Scorpina extended her hand send blue lighting towards him as Izuku pointed his dagger towards her sent his own emerald lightning towards her. As their attacks connected neutralizing each other attack.
Scorpina let out a growl of annoyance as she moved to strike at him again.
“Shit!” Itsuka cussed as she fell into the portal at her feet. she was not sure of where she was as she fell from the portal above some kind of urban setting where the buildings were burning. She wasn’t very high off the ground when she tucked and rolled preventing herself from getting any injuries. She looked up to see Yui falling backwards and she enlarged her hands to catch her friend. "I got you," Itsuka called out to the quiet girl.
"Thank you, Itsuka." Yui said in a monotone voice as she got onto her feet.
"Anytime Yui," Itsuka replied as she looked for more of her classmates.
She looked around to see Ojiro falling and landing on his tail before standing up unscathed.
Manga created a large WHOOSH for him to slide down to safety.
Kamakiri and Kuroiro followed right behind Manga following him down to safety.
“Does anyone have any idea of where we landed," Kamakiri asked annoyed as he pulled at his collar at the heat from the nearby flames.
"Conflagration Zone," Yui replied quickly. "I got to look at the map of the area when we got here." She pointed in the direction of the largest road not far from where they landed. "That is the way back to the plaza." She went over and shrank a variety of debris before placing it in her pocket.
"I suggest we get back as soon as possible," Ojiro suggested as he looked around. "We are too exposed out here.
Kuroiro nodded his head in agreement. “I agree with tail boy on this.” His voice was quiet as he spoke. “We need to get back before something happens to our classmates.
Itsuka looked around at her classmates. Everyone here was good in close quarts combat. Yui was able to be a close-mid range fighter with her quirk allowing her to throw objects and return them to their full size in mid-flight. “Alright, let’s get moving. I’ll take point, Ojiro, Kamakiri, and Kuroiro will back me up and that leaves Yui and Manga in back to support us with her quirk if needed.”
After getting a nod from everyone they started to make their way back. Yui would stop along the way gathering more debris just in case she needed it. They were about to reach the intersection when they heard sniggering coming from a group of villains as they walked forward to block their path.
"Well look here, gentleman." A female voice called out from the front of the group. She summoned a ball of purple fire into her hands “The wittle students came to play with us.”
"Ah hell," Itsuka muttered as she stopped with her classmates fanned out around her as Yui reached into her pocket. “Look this is not going to end well for you and your friends. Just walk away before this has to get ugly.” She told them as she dropped into a fighting stance.
The woman started laughing at this. "Girly I have been around a long time. The name is Pyros." She tossed the fireball back and forth. "I came here to kill a few hero brats that will make my name a legend among the underworld.”
"We shall see about that," Yui said in her normal tone. She wore a slight frown as she glared at the woman.
The rest of them prepared for the fight that was coming.
Kyoka mentally cursed as she fell. She reached out to grab ahold of Momo’s arm as they fell through the portal together. She watched as Mina and Toru had latched on to each other. They fell out above a mountainous area. Momo created a rope with a lasso and tossed it to their friends. Mina and Toru latched on to the lifeline. Pony swooped in riding on a pair of horns and grabbed ahold of the rope pulling it taught and using a pair of horns to hold them all together as she landed everyone unharmed.
Toru let out a shaky breath. "Pony. Momo you two are the best." She was glad she decided to wear her gym uniform since Mei was still working on her new hero suit.
“My Pleasure.” Pony said returning her extra horns to hover near her head. “I am worried about Izuku and the others.” She looked around trying to figure out where they were. “Where did he send us?” She asked slipping back into English.
"I believe we are still in the USJ. One of the zones." Momo said tapped her earpiece. "Alpha can you pinpoint our location?" She had been listening to comms since Izuku had sent out his SOS.
“I have pinpointed your location to the Mountain Zone in the USJ Momo. You are south of the Central Plaza and the Entrance.”
"Thank you, Alpha, please keep us informed on any changes.” Momo thanked their robotic companion. She looked around and noted the path toward the Plaza was visible from their location on the mountain. “I say we head for the Plaza. Izuku could be there and he may need our help.”
Kyoko nodded her head in agreement. “Sound like a good plan to me." She was getting a bit anxious about how he was doing. This Scorpina sounded like bad news. She had her jacks moving around when she heard laughter and footsteps nearby. "Great, we have company." She said sarcastically. Pointing towards a nearby rock formation. It was a large group of men walking towards them as a few of them rubbed their hands together. She frowned at what they had been talking about. “Also, they are a bunch of perverts. Momo can you make me a pair of daggers?”
Momo made a pair of high-quality curved daggers with blunted edges and passed him to the Kyoka. "Anyone else need any weapons?" She asked as a Katana appeared out of her stomach.
“I’m good for now. I got my acid.” Mina said letting her acid run off her arms. As the drops hit the ground smoke started to rise as the acid started to eat through the rocks.
“I have my horns, thank you though.” Pony replied as she narrowed her eyes at the approaching group. She began to crack her knuckles preparing for a repeat of Bakugo beatdown, just with Villains as the substitute for the blonde Pomeranian douchebag.
Toru raised her glove. “Can you make me a weapon please?” She planned on getting some alone time with Izuku and having him help her find some support gear to use along with some training. “Mom took me out to the gun range not too long ago. I know how to use a shotgun with rubber bullets, please and thank you.” Her mother had been a police officer long before she was born and Toru grew up around police stations. He mother put her through several firearms safety classes and taught her the proper techniques on how to use shotguns for her safety and self-defense.
Momo nodded and she made what had to be the nicest shotgun Toru had ever seen. She recognized it from her Mom’s dream list of weapons she wanted to either own or shoot someday. It was a Saiga-12 automatic shotgun with a barrel drum clip. “Will this work Toru?” She asked handing the invisible girl the shotgun.
Toru went over her training her mother put her through checking everything over before she thumbed off the safety and racked the first round into the chamber. She kept her finger off the trigger as she rested it across her body. “Yes, this will work perfectly. You are truly amazing Momo”
The Villains were a bit worried about her holding a shotgun and the fact that the girls didn’t seem scared of them at all. In fact, they looked ready to fight.
Shoto tucked and rolled as he fell from the portal. He was no more than 6ft off the ground. When had trained with his father he had fallen from higher heights at a young age. He looked up in time to see someone falling towards him. he held out his arms as Reiko fell towards him. He caught her bridal style. He noted she had a quiver on her hip will arrows visible.
“Thank you for catching me. I greatly appreciate your assistance." Reiko said as she gestured for Shoto to set her down. He watched as his classmates were starting to fall from the portal and make a slide made out of ice for them to reach the ground safely.
Once they reached the ground, Juzo was the first to get to his feet and bowed towards Shoto. “Thank you for the safe landing I did not want to sink too far into the ground with my quirk then I have to." He could soften the ground to land on, but he had to be a bit careful of getting stuck in his own quirk.
“No problem. Shoto replied with his usual soft one. He was looking around to see where they had been sent.
"We are in the Landslide zone," Reiko said as she looked over the area. "I remember it being listed on the board when we came in here." She crossed her arms for a moment before she spotted a stick nearby and pulled it towards her with her Quirk. She started drawing circles in the dirt.
Rin walked over and looked at her curiously. “What are you doing?” He asked looking over her shoulder.
Reiko continued to draw in the dirt. “Remaking a map from memory.” She finished and gestured for the others to come over. “This is where we came into the USJ.” She pointed with the stick at the entrance. “This is where we are. West of the Central Plaza.” She pointed to their current location.
“So, we need to go that way to get back to our classmates.” Rin pointed at the map.
"That is correct." Reiko conformed as she jabbed the stick in the ground.
Shoto looked in the direction they needed to head. It was sloping downwards towards the exit. He noticed a group of villains heading their way. "We have company," Shoto said pointing in the direction they needed to go.
The other three turned to look to see he was right. Reiko reached into their quiver and pulled out what looked like a staff until she flicked her wrist. The staff changed into a bow. She drew an arrow and notched it on her bowstring. At the end of the arrows was a cylinder instead of an arrowhead. “Seems like we will have to take out have some trash. How very annoying.” Reiko said quietly as she adjusted her footing prepared to draw the bow.
Rin scaled up his arms ready to fight.
Juzo prepared to soften the ground to make them work to get anywhere near them.
Shoto shrugged before putting his hands in his pocket before he raised his right foot up off the ground.
Melissa was disoriented as she fell out of the portal. She had fallen through a kind of side tunnel and ended up in some kind of alley in a ruined city. She left out a small grunt as she landed on her back. She was around to see Kirishima, Tetsutetsu, and Hitoshi all groaning on the ground. “Everyone ok?” Melissa asked rising to a crawling position.
"I'm alive," Hitoshi call out as he sat up leaning back on his hands. "I never want to travel like that ever again." He forced himself to stand up and look around.
Kirishima gave her a thumbs-up as slowly got to his feet. "That did not go as planned." He said rubbing his left shoulder. It was a bit sore after handing on it wrong.
“No kidding their needle noggin," Tetsutetsu added as he pushed off the ground and had started dusting himself off.
Kirishima brushed off the nickname and looked at Melissa. “Are you ok?” he looked her over only to see dirt on her costume.
Melissa waved him off as she stood off. “Yeah just got a little disoriented. I think we are in one of the training areas.” She said reviewing her camera footage in her helmet of the board at the entrance. “Were in the Ruin Zone. We are not far from our classmates.”
“Well, that’s good to hear," Hitoshi said adjust his scarf as he moved closer. "I saw we hurry back before anything can go wrong."
“I second that.” Tetsutetsu agreed.
Kirishima was about to add his agreement as well when he remembered something. “Hey, where did Bakugo go? I was sure he fell into that portal with us." He looked around to see if he was in any of the nearby alleys or doorways still unconscious or injured.
"He could have been sent somewhere else," Melissa stated as she helped her friend look around. “I fell with Fumikage and Tsu, but I felling into some type of side tunnel and ended up here.” She helped look around for her blonde classmate, but they were unable to find him.
“He must have been sent somewhere else. We need to get back to the others.” Hitoshi said after helping them look around as well.
“I am sure we would have heard an explosion by now if he was in the area with us," Tetsutetsu replied as he agreed with Melissa and Hitoshi. "Villains are here and we need to regroup before our exit gets cut off."
Kirishima hesitated for a moment before nodding his head in agreement. “Let’s keep an eye out for him on along the way at least. I don’t want to leave anyone behind.”
Melissa nodded. “Sounds like a plan, now let’s move.” They decided to stick to the main roads as would be the best chance for them to find their way back.
They made it down a few streets before villains started to surround them. Tetsutetsu skin became a shiny silver. Kirishima hardened his skin and prepared to fight. Hitoshi readied his scarf and dropped into a fighting stance. Melissa Charged up her Golden Fleece as expanded her shield and grabbed her spear.
“Give them Nothing!” Melissa called out to her classmates as she took her stance.
“Take from them everything!” Kirishima and Tetsutetsu yelled back as they started grinning as they both punched their fists.
Hitoshi shook his head. "I'm surrounded by crazy people." He looked around as the enemy closed in around them. "I'm coming home to you Himi. No matter what. I am coming home.” He said to himself as he waited for the fight to begin.
Bakugo growled as he slowly started to come too. He stood up clutching his head. He shot out of the portal headfirst into a wall hard enough to knock him unconscious. He remembered falling with those extra and then he felt something yank him in another direction. He looked around but saw nothing he recognized. He could tell he was in a ruined warehouse somewhere. Debris was all around him as looked through a giant hole in the ceiling. "Where the Fuck am I?" He growled out as his head started throbbing. He didn’t see any of the extra and figured they had gotten separated. He started to make his way to the nearest door when felt a cold sensation run down his spine.
Bakugo looked around prepared to blast anyone that came near him. For the moment he forgot the pain in his head. He looked to see a glowing red and black orb floating towards him. As it got closer Bakugo felt a pit start to form in his stomach and started to break out in a cold sweat. "What the Fuck?" He mumbled as it grew closer to him. Something was making him feel scared. He felt cold sweat run down his face.
“I sense great power in you boy.” The orb said drift around the blonde. “I also sense much anger in you as well. I will make you into my greatest warrior.” The orb started growing in size and started filling the warehouse in red light. It grew roughly the size of a small car as it slowly moved closer to Bakugo.
Bakugo tried to run away as a purple circle appeared underneath his feet. Inside the circle was a pentagram with writing in a language that Bakugo could not even begin to understand. He tried to escape the orb by running out of the circle. He made it as far as the edge until he bounced off an invisible wall. He spun around and raised his arms to send off the massive explosion. Bakugo froze in shock when nothing happened. He tried again and again, but he couldn’t even make a spark appear. “WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO ME?” Bakugo screaming in anger and fear. He pressed his back again the invisible wall.
“I can’t have you making too much ruckus and bringing any unwanted guests. Especially any of those pesky Power Rangers.” The Orb said with a malicious cackle. “This circle will hide my presence and stop all sound from escaping.” Several reddish-black tentacles extended out from the orb and rushed forward grabbing Bakugo’s wrist and ankles holding him in the X position off the ground before he could even react.
Bakugo struggled and tried to get free, but he could not break free. “LET ME GO!” He screamed as an ethereal hand appeared out from the top of the orb. It flashed towards Bakugo grabbing the top of his head tightly. The orb started to discharge purple lightning and channeled down towards the tentacle into the hand.
Bakugo screamed as every nerve in his body felt like they were being dipped in acid. He relieved every memory of himself and Deku. Every cruel and vicious act he inflicted on Deku until he left their middle school. He felt his mind starting to fade into oblivion. Bakugo’s red eyes slowly started to glow an otherworldly purple. For a moment Bakugo flashed purple and in his place was an armored knight with wolf heads on each shoulder. His helmet was purple and silver with a black visor. He held a purple shield with a sword handle visible from the top.
Then just as quickly as the armored knight appeared, he vanished leaving Bakugo hanging limply by the tentacles. The orb gently lowered him to the ground. “You will awaken soon and seek me out young Knight Wolf.” The orb started to shrink and was just about to vanish completely. “You will answer the call of your Master.” The orb started laughing as it vanished from sight. The circle started to slowly fade a little at a time.
Bakugo laid there on the floor unconscious as his memories were slowly being locked away. He kept hearing a name being repeated over and over again in his dreams. Koragg.
Izuku dodge another swipe of her blade and drove a knee into her side sending her stumbling away from him. Scorpina growls and looks away from him for a moment before smiling. She charged up a lightning attack “Think fast!” She pointed her hand in the direction of Aizawa’s back while he was facing the other direction fighting the guy covered in hands.
Izuku jumped in front of the attack taking the full brunt of it. Izuku suppressed a groan as sparks drizzled off his suit and he fell prone on the ground. He felt his muscles twitch from the electrical attack.
“Poor Little Ranger, all of your pathetic little human friends are probably dead by now.” Scorpina taunted as she wanted to break his spirit. “This will go down in history as The Massacre at the USJ by the hand of the League of Villains!” She started to cackle with delight. “Surrender and I may still be merciful to you.”
Izuku rose slowly to his feet as smoke rose off his suit from her attack. He looked at Scorpina and started chuckling.
“What?” Scorpina asked in confusion.
Izuku stabbed his Power Sword into the ground and dusted off his suit. "You think thugs like these would be able to take out my classmate?" He asked pulling his sword out of the ground and pointing it at Scorpina. "You think that just because humans are not as strong or durable as you that it makes them weak or not a threat. You're wrong on so many levels. My classmates and teachers may be human as you put it, but they have the drive to keep fighting and never give up, even if the odds are against them." Izuku watched as she sneered in anger at him. "I will say that you are right about one thing though Scorpina.” He added nonchalantly
“What’s that?” Scorpina asked gripping the handle of her sword so tighter.
Izuku was smiling under his helmet. “There will be a massacre today, just not the one you and your friends had planned. This day will be remembered when a bunch of would-be villains decided to attack the USJ and ended up losing to a bunch of Hero Students and Teachers." As Izuku spoke all over the USJ his fellow students were fighting back with a vengeance. Those that thought this would be an easy job were starting to regret their decision of coming here today.
"If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself," Scorpina growled out as her eyes started glowing again.
Izuku took a step towards her. “Time to step it up a notch. Metallic Armor Power UP!" His Green Ranger Suit took on a glitter-like coating and started to shine in the light. Izuku charged forward as Scorpina's electrical attacks skidded off of him. He got in close and went on the attack.
Eraserhead cussed out loud as he watched Izuku take a blow meant for him. After the Nomu was out of the way He went and focused on Shigaraki. He sent his capture cloth towards the villain trying to end it quickly. Eraserhead had been more than a little surprised when the villain grabbed a hold of his scarf and watched as that section turned to ash where he touched it.
Eraserhead jumped back as he was inspected his damaged scarf. He erased Shigaraki's quirk as he moved from hand to hand. He had his opponent on his back foot when he heard Vlad call out in pain. Eraserhead glance over to see the Nomu was back on its feet looking unharmed and had knocked Vlad King back a good distance with a blow.
"Shit," Eraserhead said trying to finish his fight to help Vlad. He glanced at his watch. He had to hold on for a few more minutes.
Izuku was still on the offensive taking advantage of his boost while it lasted. He deflected Scorpina's sword away with his dagger allowing him to strike her diagonally across her chest. She fell to the ground with a snarl. “End this now Scorpina. Leave while you can.” Izuku told her as she got back to her feet.
“Not until all these worthless little monkeys you care about are dead.” Scorpina shot back as vanished again from sight.
Thirteen and Mt. Lady had been playing for a lack of a better word a game of Cat and Mouse with the villain Kurogiri. Mt. Lady tried to get in close to fight him and Kurogiri would create a portal in front or near her. Thirteen would absorb the portal through her finger caps.
“This guy is getting on my nerves.” Mt. Lady growled as she was forced to dodge another portal.
Thirteen absorbed that portal. “That we can agree on.” She was not a combat specialist and she has having to hold back so she didn’t catch Mt. Lady in her Quirk.
"This is becoming rather boring," Kurogiri said with a dull tone. "I was hoping for a bit more of a challenge from two Pro Heroines." Kurogiri was about to make another retort when a beam of light just barely missed his head. "What the?" He looked to see a student sending another beam of light towards him forcing him to dodge. He looked over to see the students were not scared. They were prepared to fight back against him.
Ochako touched a pile of a small boulder that had been made by Kaibara who used his quirk Gyrate to dig into the ground. Bondo and Awase combined their quirks Cemedine and Weld to make them bigger. She started throwing them at Kurogiri before returning the gravity to them. Even Ida was using his engines to help kick some boulders to assist. Sero started sending strips of tape.
Soon Kurogiri was having to dodge the make-shift boulders, blasts of light, and tape. He was constantly having to keep on the move while he was still having to contend with Thirteen and Mt. Lady. He was still moving when he remembers something. The green-haired girl from before had disappeared. He was about to look for the girl when he was attacked from behind and fell forward onto the ground. He heard growling as he felt something grip the collar around his neck. He turned his head to see a green raptor to his right growling at him. "Clever girl," Kurogiri muttered as another raptor moved in front of him.
Setsuna was grinning under her helmet as she placed her sword next to the villain's neck. She had him pinned to the ground with a grip on his collar. She had whispered her plan to everyone and while he was distracted she slide away and morphed. She had waited for the perfect time to send her raptors in to catch him off guard. "I told you it would work." She sent Ochako a sideways peace sign.
“Yep, great plan Setsuna.” Ochako gave her a thumbs up before she tapped her ear. “Alpha we have contained the villain at the Entrance to the USJ.” She watched at Mt. Lady and Thirteen went over and placed suppression cuffs onto Kurogiri.
“Copy That Ochako. Great Work Rangers! I will pass that along to DECA.”
The Door to the USJ exploded inward as All Might stepped inside. “HAVE NO FEAR FOR I AM- oh.” He said looking to see a villain on the ground cuffed. With his students and fellow teachers unharmed
“All Might we have it under control here. Eraserhead and Vlad King are just up ahead. Go give them a hand so we can put an end to this quickly.” Thirteen said pointing to the Central Plaza.
“On it.” All Might dashed off towards the Central Plaza.
He arrived just as the creature was about to attack Vlad Kingwho was down on the ground. He rushed forward catching the Nomu’s fist before it even got close to his fellow Teacher. All Might removed his tie with his free hand as the other was still holding the Nomu’s fist without breaking a sweat. "I Apologize Vlad for my late arrival are you ok?" He kept his focus on the bird creature in front of him.
“I’ll a little banged up, Nothing Recovery Girl can’t fix.” Vlad King replied cradling his left arm. “That thing broke my shoulder with one hit. That thing is super strong and I watched Midoriya blow out its kneecaps and it was back on its feet before too long like nothing happened.” He started moving away to let All Might fight without getting in the way.
All Might frowned at this. “I see.” He looked over the creature before he drew back a punched the thing with a solid punch. He was surprised to the creature barely flinched at the blow. His attack was strong enough to take out most villains. “I see you’re a tough one.”
Laughing caught his attention. All Might glanced over to another villain that was fighting it out with Eraserhead. “You’ve met your match All Might! That Nomu was made to be your executioner.”
“Made?” All Might asked as he dodged an attack. He went on the offensive and put more powers into his attacks.
“Yes, Made. It’s as strong as you All Might and its Quirk is Shock Absorption.” Shigaraki started to snicker as he dodged another kick from Eraserhead. “You can’t win!”
All Might smiled. “Let’s just see about that villain.” All Might started punching faster and faster with each it. He notices the impact points were starting the bruise. All Might grabbed the Nomu's arm and punched its elbow breaking its arm. It roared for a moment before its arms snapped back into place. “What? I thought you said his quirk was Shock Absorption?” He asked confused as the Nomu landed a punch to his face with its regenerated arm splitting his lip.
“I never said it was its only ability. It also has Super Regeneration.” Shigaraki tried to disintegrate Eraserhead’s face, but his quirk was being erased again.
All Might’s heart clenched at this. ‘No. I killed him. It’s not possible.’ He thought to himself as he went toe to toe with Nomu. Increasing his power with each hit. Each hit seemed to heal almost instantly each time. He noticed the slight delay from its healing after being punched. He suppressed a wince of pain as the Nomi landed several blows against his old wound he received from All for One. 'He is alive.' All Might said to himself as he decided to crank up the power. He still had 2 hours left on his limit for the day. He was so glad to have taken those new organs and recovered enough to keep his time limit up.
“Are you just a muscle-bound idiot? I said you can’t beat Nomu no matter how hard you punch him. Just give up you’ve lost!” Shigaraki taunted the Symbol of Peace.
(You Say Run OST)
All Might just smiled. “I have heard that many times in my long career. That I should just give up and quit.” He said as he started punching faster and faster. “I don’t know the meaning of the word quit!” His fists were a blur of motion as he punched harder and faster. “You said his quirk was Shock Absorption, not Nullification. So, it has a limit to how much damage it can take!”
All Might watched as the Nomu could not keep up its healing from all the full-powered barrage of his attacks. It was a battle of attrition as All Might kept up the pressure. He performed a quick uppercut and moved in a blur of pure speed to jump up and punched the Nomu straight towards the edge of the Central Plaza into the ground.
“You may have heard these words before, but I will teach you their true meaning! GO BEYOND PLUS ULTRA!” All Might let gravity carry him towards the downed creature. “DETROIT SMASH!!” The air around them filled with dust and debris.
As the dust started settled All Might was panting slightly his shirt was in shreds hanging off his shoulders. "I must be getting old. In my younger days I could have taken it out in only 5 punches, but this thing took over 150 blows to put that thing down.” He wondered in the back of his mind how this fight would have been different if he never had his surgery.
Vlad King was looking at his fellow teacher in surprise. "Jesus I wasn't about to keep up with all of those hits. It just looks like a blur of limbs" He was still cradling his arm as he moved towards his students still near the entrance. "Glad he is on our side." He mumbles as he headed up the steps.
All Might looked over to see Eraserhead was chasing after Shigaraki who was making a mad dash in the direction of the Flood Zone with his arm outstretched. All Might's blood ran cold as he was about to grab the face of one of his students. “NO!”
“Are we good with this plan?” Fumikage asked as the boat started to sink deeper into the water. He had been planning with Kaminari, Komori, and Tsu for the last few minutes. Mineta had been curled up in the fetal position crying nonstop. For the most part, everyone had ignored them.
"The best one we got. Let's get to work." Kaminari said giving him a thumbs-up as he moved towards the anchor chain on the side of the boat.
“I’ll do my part to get out of here. Shroom.” Komori nodded as she drew what looked like square pistols. “It’s pretty humid over here so I won’t have to dad much to get the job done Shroom.” She moved around and started spraying a mist all around the ship.
Tsu gave him a thumbs up “I’m ready Fumi, I just ready for us to get out of here. Kero” Tsu said stretching her legs as she judged the distance from the ship to the shore.
Fumikage was struggling not to watch her stretch as this was now the time for that.
"Komori, do it," Fumikage tells his classmate.
The shy girl starts to smile brightly as she raises her hands and sends her spores out to the humid air. “This is going to be so mush Shrooming fun!” She giggles as the screams of the villains can be heard around them. She looked approvingly at her handy work.
“What the hell man? One man screamed.
“Oh, God what is this stuff?” Another cried out.
Fumikage nods his head at the mushroom girl as could see Kaminari holding his hands over the base of the chain. They had found a rubber mat inside one of the rooms to keep them safe for this part of the plan. “Now Kaminari!”
Kaminari grinned as he started charging up his electricity to moderate charge since the villains were in the water. "Here it comes!" He grabbed the chain attached to the anchor sending the current of 25 amps into the water. He didn't have to overdo it and kill them, just incapacitate them. He didn't want to short out his brain either and become a burden to his classmates with villains all around them. The villains twitched and jerk at from his attack. When he stopped they were just floating in the water twitching.
"Nice work everyone," Fumikage told them as they could now get off the ship without issue. "Now to get back to the others. Tsu are you sure you can jump that far with Kaminari and Mineta?" He was not thrilled to have the pervert anywhere near her, but he had never flown before but Dark Shaw said he could help them glide to the short from this distance if necessary.
“I can handle getting those two across. Don’t worry about me. Kero.” Tsu said back getting into a crouching position as she put Mineta under her arm and used her tongue to grab Kaminari.
Komori looked a bit shy as Fumikage picked her up and she placed her arm around his neck. She looked down so he would not see her blushing being carried like a princess. "I-I'm ready," Komori said quietly trying not to stutter. Her face was a bright red. She was glad he couldn’t see her face.
"Alright let's get to the shore," Fumikage said as Black Shadow created large black wings and Fumikage jumped off the side of the ship. Dark Shadow flapped his wings to give them some lift as they glided to the shore. Tsu had jumped in a large arc clearing the water with ease. Tsu and the other reached the ground first when Fumikage hear a loud angry Kero followed by a slap.
Fumikage landed and rushed over with Komori to find Mineta on the ground with a handprint visible across his face. Tsu clutched her chest with her hands with a red face. “What happened?” Fumikage asked trying to suppress his anger as Dark shadow appeared beside him ready for action.
"That pervert groped my breasts when we landed. Kero." Tsu said her normal calm tone was replaced with an angry one. “I saved your life and you repay me by groping me?” She asked taking a step back from him.
“I don’t see why you are making a big deal out of this," Mineta grumbled as he rubbed his cheek glaring back at her. “I thought I was going to die and your boobs were the closest. They’re not that impressive to get upset over. Jeez”
Fumikage and Dark Shadow loomed over him in an instant. “What did you just say, you little pervert?" Fumikage snarled through clenched teeth.
“Would you care to repeat that you perverted little grape?" Dark Shadow seethed. He started looming over Mineta.
“I said they are not that Impress-.” Mineta stopped when Fumikage punched him in the face hard enough to knock him out. Dark Shadow punched him once more for good measure before returning to glaring at him.
“Thank you. Kero” Tsu said glaring at the unconscious pervert. “Now what do we do with him?” She asked the others.
“I say we leave him here for the villains. What a shrooming idiot.” Komori hissed as she covered his head in mushrooms spelling out the word. PERVERT.
Fumikage retrieved some rope from his belt and tied Mineta up so he could not getaway. "This will work for the time being. I say we let the teachers have to deal with the pervert later. Now let's get back to everyone else.” He was having to control his anger and keep focused on getting everyone to safety.
“I’ll carry him. He may live longerthat way.” Kaminari said as he carried the grape like a piece of dirty laundry.
Fumikage took a few deep breathes to calm himself. “Now Tsu are you ok?” He was restraining his darker half from making Mineta into a purple stain on the ground. ‘Murder is not Heroic. Murder is not heroic.’ He kept repeating in his head.
“Fine.” Tsu said quickly pointing towards the entrance “Let just go. Please Kero.”
Komori moved over to comfort Tsu as they moved towards the stairs. Fumikage was a few steps behind with Kaminari bringing up the rear with Mineta. As they neared the Central Plaza they were in awe of All Might going all out again a bird-like creature. It was an impressive sight to see. Then there was Mr. Aizawa fighting someone nearby.
"Whoa," Komori said unable to look away.
“That is impressive. Kero.” Tsu said watching All Might beat the tar out of his opponent.
"Wow, #1 hero in action," Kaminari said almost dropping Mineta in the process.
"Let's find a way around without getting caught in either fight," Fumikage said pointing in the direction of Izuku fighting another villain. “These look out of our league right now.” Dark Shadowed chimed in as he covered his eyes from the light reflection off Izukusuit while fighting a woman in gold armor.
“Yeah let head that way." Komori pointed to the edge of the plaza and they moved at a hurried pace.
As they were running Fumikage noted the villain had been fighting their homeroom teacher was making a beeline for them. “Look Out!” he called out clutching the hilt of his sword and darting forward.
Tsu looked as the Villain was close enough she could see his demented smile. She froze in fear as he was almost on top of her and Komori. She saw her life flash in front of her eyes as he extended his hand in her direction. She could see the lines on palm he was that close to her.
“GET AWAY FROM HER! /GET AWAY FROM HER!” A pair of voices called out.
A blur of black rushed in front of her. ““Hiten Mitsurigi Style Ryūsōsen!" His blade slammed into the villain's stomach sending him flying backwards across the ground." You will not hurt my friends!" he said sheathing his blade prepared for another attack.
“Nice Job.” All Might said appearing in front of him. “Young Fumikage. You did very well. Now get your classmates out of here.” He pointed to the path for them to take. “Regroup with the others.”
“Yes sir.” Fumikage gently touched Tsu’s shoulder“Let’ get to safety.”
Tsu blinked for a moment. “Yeah let’s go.” She gripped his hand tightly as he led her to safety with the others.
Komori and Kaminari fell in behind them as they hurried to get to safety.
Ibara wiped the rain from her eyes as sent her another wave of vines towards the villains that sent them scrambling. She kept on the offensive with her classmates driving them back. “Keep it up my fellow heroes we can push them back!” She focused on the next group trying to get past her and there were attacked with vines with razor-sharp thorns. "May God have mercy on your souls." She muttered as she focused on another villain. She grabbed them with her vines and threw them into the side of a building.
Kodai had been staying towards the back as a flood of rats surged towards the villains from the surrounding buildings. Apparently, there was a rather large rat population that had made their home in these empty buildings. ‘Thank you, my little friends, for your help.’ He said with his quirk to the rats as they ran past him giving him happy squeaks.
“Where are all of these rats coming from?”
“Who cares! Just get them off of me!” They started to bump into one another trying to get away from the swarm.
Mezo was fighting out three different villains with his multiple limbs. He disabled one with a quick blow to the head. The Second one he held in a chokehold until they blacked out and the third he punched him until he was unconscious. He looked at the villains near him. "Who's next?" when no one volunteered he cracked his knuckles and started walking towards them. "Guess I will have to come pick someone myself.”
Jurota went into his beast form and started pounding on the nearest villain. He moved quickly in the rain and was able to get behind them to take them down. He was moving like a creature in a monster movie. He started taking them down one by one pulling them away from their friends. The villains were starting to panic at this.
Kosei was helping his friend by making barriers air with his quirk or platforms for Jurota to move around on. He moved around the group helping where he was needed. As the villain's numbers started to dwindle they decided to change up their tactics and tried to overwhelm them with numbers. Between Ibara and Kosei it was not very effective as those two controlled the battlefield. "We got this," Kosei called out as he made an air platform for Jurota to jump on to ambush another Villain
Ibara nodded as she prepared for her next attack. "That is Correct. We shall be victorious." She called out as she sent her vines surging forward again.
Kendo ducked under an opponent’s arm and enlarged her hand for a devastating uppercut. The villain went flying towards a nearby building. The villain groaned as they slid to the ground. She frowned at the jerk for being able to slip a knife in and cut her shoulder. “Everyone doing ok?” She called out to the others as she watched what looks like pebbles fly over her head before they were returned to full size and began to rain down with debris. The Villains scrambled out of the way as several dumpsters fell towards them. “Nice Job Yui!”
Yui was shrinking and tossing any large piece of debris she could find before she returned it to full-size mid-air. "Thanks," she replied in her quiet tone as she was acting as their ranged attacker and in return, they acted like her defense to keep her safe. Yui had started to focus her attention on Pyros since she was throwing balls of fire at her classmates. She found the damaged car and shrank it down before throwing it at her like a softball. When it was close Yui pressed fingertips together to return it to full size.
Pyros saw this just in time to jump out of the way of the falling car. “I’m going to kill that fucking brat.” She muttered getting back to her feet.
Several large BOOM’s started flying towards the villains as they were being pinned to the ground. Manga gave a thumbs up to Itsuka. “I’m hanging in there.” He sent several larger words the keep them from overwhelming them. He was not skilled in close combat, but he was keeping on the move. He was in the mid-jump when he was hit in the head by a brick. He tumbled to the ground like a ragdoll.
Ojiro saw this and used his tail to launch himself towards Manga catching him just before his head could hit the ground. Ojiro looked him over and swore as he was unconscious. “Guys, Manga is down.” He called out getting into a protective stance of his injured classmate. A few villains tried to take advantage of him having to protect his downed classmates by rushing towards him. He was able to sweep the legs of one of them with his tail before performing a roundhouse kick to the other.
Kamakiri rushed forward blades ready to go to assist Ojiro in protecting his classmate. he found an opponent with a durability type Quirk that allowed him to cut loose a bit to take them down. "If you want to get to my classmate you have to go through us." He calls out ready to prepare help hold the line.
Kuroiro was moving through the shadows ambushing his opponents with punches or kicks. He was able to trip a few of them up by grabbing the ankles or sweeping the legs when possible. He positioned himself near Manga who had befriended him on the first day of school. "Mess with one of us. You have to deal with all of us." He said merging back into the shadows.
Screams fill the mountain area as Toru was firing off rounds from her shotgun. She had dropped into a shooting stance like her Mom had taught her. She was being careful not to hit on her friends with a rubber bullet by accident. Toru was hitting her mark 3/5 times. It was been a while since she had gone to the range with her Mom. "That right run while you can!" Toru shouted as she aimed at her next target.
Mina was skating around the group leaving a trail of acid as she moved to cause a few of the villains to hesitate after one of them started screaming in pain as the acid started to eat through the sole of their shoe. Mina was nimble and quick. She was able to use some of her break-dancing moves to drop down and sweep their legs. She also started lobbing various types of acid at them causing them to slide or cry out as they were hit with her more corrosive acids. "This is why they call me the Acid Queen!"
"Nobody calls you that Mina!" Toru called out firing another shot.
Mina rolled her eyes. "Ruin my fun bestie." She said throwing a large slime-like acid at a nearby villain.
Pony started sending a large barrage of horns at the villains causing them to have to duck for cover after one of them was sent to the ground curled up in the fetal position. Another villain had managed to get past her horns thinking she was a weak little girl. Pony spotted him and started wailing on him before she kicked him hard in the chest sending him flying into one of his companions. "Judged me by my size, do you?" Pony smirked as she cracked her neck and rolled her shoulders before heading towards her next opponent who was backing away in fear.
Kyoka was able to use her blunted daggers to defect attacks away from her. She caught movement in her peripheral vision and quickly dropped her current opponent and turn to see 3 more moving towards her with perverted grins. Kyoka's eye twitched in annoyance at them before she got an idea. She turned to face them before giving them a devious smile as they got close. "Hey. You wanna hear a secret?" She asked much to their confusion. She took a deep breath and let out her Ptrea Scream sending them crumbling to the ground clutching their ears. "That is what you get ya perverts."
Momo was a blur of motion as she launched towards her opponent in a blur of motion. Since she was a child she had been raised to fight with a katana by her mother. She had taught her the basics as a child of her family sword style. It was called the Gatotsu Style created by her mother's ancestor as a variation of the style used by the Shinsengumi. She was more than able to hold her own. When one tried to ambush her from the side Kyoka moved in to take them down. "Everyone alright??" Momo called out as she dropped a villain with a strike of her blunted katana.
"I'm good!" Pony called out in English as she grabbed a villain by the ankles and started swinging them like a bat to hit another.
Kyoka jabbed her jacks into the side of a villain before driving her knee into their stomach. "I'm fine."
Toru fired off another round keeping someone pinned down by a rock formation. "I may need more ammo soon Momo," Toru replied taking a few more shots.
Mina slid over to cover Toru by throwing more acid as Momo created and tossed Toru another barrel clip for her. "Thanks, Momo," Toru called out as her shotgun clicked telling her she was out of ammo. she quickly reloaded and started firing again.
The villains were trying one last push towards them. Momo grinned as she dropped into a partial crouch, bending both of her knees, her left arm drawn back and her right arm extended forward; she grasps the hilt of his sword. "For UA!" She cried before lunging forward.
Shoto stomped his foot sending a large amount of ice towards the villains as they scrambled to avoid it. A few of them got caught in the ice and were trying to break free. "You lot drew the short straw coming here to face me." He sent another wave of ice that was halted by a villain sending a piece of darker color ice to halt his attack. "Hmm," Shoto said focusing his attention on them. He refused to use his father's quirk. His mother was a strong woman when she...broke. He would prove to his father that he could be a hero with his Ice half alone.
Reiko released her arrow sending it at her target. just before it hit the small capsules on the tip fell away revealing a taser tip. When it connected to the villain's chest tensed up before falling to the ground unconscious. She quickly drew another arrow and fired towards another villain who jumped out of the way to dodge it. Reiko let a ghost of a smile appear on her face as she used her Quirk on the arrow to change the trajectory so it would hit her target. "The spirits seem to be on my side today." She said before firing two more arrows in quick succession.
Rin was ducking and weaving between his opponents send his scales at close range to take them down. He was also using his scales to deflect or block attacks. "Feel the wrath of the dragon." He told his opponents as he started launching his scales faster than before taking a few down before the others could get out of the way. He jumped off of one villain landing a spinning kick to another. he tucked and rolled away.
Juzo was grinning under his helmet as he touched the ground turning it into a large area of quicksand that villains had run into and started panicking as they realized they were sinking into the ground and were scrambling trying to get out. Juzo waited as they sank about knee-deep before he touched it again trapping them in place. He moved to create another quicksand area to keep the villains from flanking them. He was not about to lose to villains when he was at the greatest school in Japan.
Shoto was still having an ice battle with a villain that was currently in a stalemate. They kept stopping the other from advancing their attacks. He frowned as he put more power into his attack and started overwhelming his opponent. He heard a cry of pain before he noticed any resistance to his attack had stopped. He looked to see he was on the ground with a taser arrow in their shoulder. "I could have taken them," Shoto said slightly annoyed.
Reiko quirked an eyebrow at him before pointing towards the said villain. "Before or after you froze the entire area including my classmate?"
Shoto stopped and looked around and blinked he did not realize that he had been throwing that much ice around. he could see a few walls near his fellow students that had gotten a bit close without realizing it. "Oh." He said feeling slightly embarrassed by his actions. "Thank you for the assistance, Yanagi." He bowed his head slightly.
She bowed her head slightly in acknowledgment as she notched another arrow. You are welcome Todoroki. Please call me Reiko."
Shoto nodded at her. "Just call me Shoto," he told her as an icy mist start rising from his right side. He had to suppress a wince thinking of his father.
Rin and Juzo move to stand beside them to make one last push to the exit so they could regroup with their friends and classmates.
Melissa drew back her fist channeled 5% of her power. “Athens Smash!” sending her attack towards a couple of villains. Her attack sent them flying into a building with a thud before they fell to the ground. She was flanked by Kirishima and Tetsutetsu as she stood in a defensive position with her shield raised. She had been the point of their formation sending waves of attacks as the other two protected her on each side. She had planned to use her spear but decided to use her fist instead.
Kirishima was bouncing on the balls of his feet in a boxer stance sending jabs and punches at whoever got close enough. He was now grateful for all that time his father spent teaching him the importance of footwork and to keeping moving. “Another coming towards you Tetsu.” He called out as he had blocked an attack with his forearms. He noticed that one of them was trying to move around them. “Nice one Melissa!” he called out before having to block another attack.
"On it Kiri," Tetsutetsu replied as he started brawling with his opponent as they tried to slip past him. Tetsutetsu was not a saint. He grew up in a rough neighborhood and had to learn how to survive. He was a street brawler and he preferred to win. He was about Honor and Chivalry, He wanted to be a beacon for those kids like him in his neighborhood. He wanted them to see they can make something of themselves. He was going to be a Hero. “Hitoshi the big guy would help thin the herd out a bit.” He pointed the villain in question.
Hitoshi was moving between his three classmates with speed and agility. He was using his scarf to trip or throw them off balance for the 3 powerhouses in front of him. He was also turning villains against each other whenever he had the chance. "Hey ugly. Was your mother a troll or were you just born that ugly?" He called out to the bigger villain in the group that Tetsutetsu just pointed out.
“You litt-.” He started before his eyes glazed over.
Hitoshi smirk as his quirk took effect. "Now punch the others around you." He watched as the man started punching the other villains around him causing them to attack him in return. One of them hit him so hard he fell back unconscious on another villain trapping them to the floor. He kept it us as they were so busy fighting the other three that they kept falling for his tricks.
"We need to keep moving before they can pin us down," Melissa called out as she sent another punch forward causing some of the villains to scramble and dive out of the way.
"Roger that," Kirishima said moving up to her side. "We need to keep an eye out for Bakugo as well.”
Tetsutetsu threw a villain before doing the same. "Yeah, we need to finish this soon before we get too exhausted to fight back.”
Hitoshi had pulled a villain towards him connecting a kick to their face. "Yeah, we need to regroup to take care of the villains and get help from the teachers so we can find our classmate." He was not about to get ambushed looking for that blonde dick in this massive area. They needed help and couldn’t help anyone if they were injured or killed in the process.
Kirishima sighed but nodded his head. “You have point.”
After seeing that his students were safely out of the line of fire. All Might focused on the woman in gold armor that had been fighting with Young Midoriya. He rushed forward to ambush her from behind to end the fight as quickly as possible. “DETROIT SMASH!” He was just about to land his punch when she vanished suddenly. He couldn't stop his attack as he hit Midoriya in the chest sending him skipping across the ground. “Oh shit, Are you ok Young Midoriya?” He asked rushing towards his students while he was looking around to see where she disappeared too.
“I’ll live. I think.” Izuku groaned as he got back to his feet. Izuku winced as he felt some pain in his ribs. “Not cool on the friendly fire there Point Break.”
All Might looked a bit abashed. “My apologies Young Midoriya. I was trying to help you with this villain. Where did she go?”He was still looking all around them trying to spot where she went in case she was trying to attack them from behind.
Izuku walked slowly over to retrieve his dagger he dropped when he was skipping over the plaza like a stone on the water. "I am sure she is not far. This is one of her abilities along with the lightning. She teleports.” His ribs felt tender. Just after he was hit by All Might his Metallic Armor timed out taking a huge brunt of the hit for him. "Go help the other students All Might. Scorpina is a bit outside your weight class."
“I am not going to abandon a student to face someone so dangerous by themselves." All Might countered.
Scorpina appeared not far in front of them with her thumb and middle finger pressed together. "Time to send your new friend to his death."
Izuku reacted quickly and shoved All Might as far away as he could as Scorpina snapped her fingers and Izuku was sent flying back from a large explosion at his feet. Izuku flipped backward before falling to the ground face-first with another groan.
All Might and Eraserhead rushed over to check on him. Izuku rose his head to look as Shigaraki was limping over to stand by Scorpina. Izuku slowly rose to his knees.
“Give it up heroes. You’ve lost.” Shigaraki said scratching at his neck cranking his head to one side. "You may have defeated my Nomu, but you can't beat her." He gestured to Scorpina.
"Izuku reinforcements are being teleported in now," Nezu stated over the communicator.
Izuku rose slowly from his knee to stand up. “No, You’re the one who’s lost.”
Shigaraki looked confused until various colors of light started to appear.
Izuku glanced behind him to see Miruko, Ryukyu, Mandalay, and Mei standing behind him with their Morphers in hand.
Ragdoll and Blue Senturion arrived at the Main Entrance.
Cementoss and the Big 3 arrived at the Downpour Zone
Robo Knight and Snipe arrived at the Conflagration zone.
Midnight and Present Mic arrived at the Mountain Zone.
Tiger and Pixie-Bob arrived at the Landslide Zone.
Ectoplasm and Hound Dog arrived at the Ruin zone.
Izuku looked around at the new arrivals and couldn’t help but smile. “Game Over.” He said pointing his sword at the Man-child.
Shigaraki started raging at the appearance of the Pros Heroes arriving so soon to spoil all of his fun. He knew that in minutes his remaining army would be reduced to nothing. “Kurogiri!” Tomura shouted as he was grinding his teeth in frustration. Shigaraki watched as he arrived through a portal dusting off his suit that was covered in tears and bite marks. He had been rubbing his wrists as he walked towards his ward.
"Yes, Shigaraki?" Kurogiri inquired as hestood beside him.
"I need another Nomu and more pawns on the field now!" Shigaraki commanded the portal wielder. "They are cheating and I need to kill All Might while I have the chance!" He looked over at the dead Nomu laying on the other side of the plaza.
“That was the only one you had Shigaraki, also we brought all of the villains with us that you recruited personally," Kurogiri said trying not to slap his ward for being stupid.
Scorpina stepped next to Shigaraki with a smirk. “I can help you with both of those issues, but it will cost you.” She extended a hand towards him. She knew he would take the deal out of his desperate need to win.
“Shigaraki I’d be cautious about-.” Kurogiri tried to reason with his young ward, but he was interrupted by Shigaraki pushing him aside with a crazed look in his eyes.
He rushed over and shook her hand. "I don't care what the cost is I need to kill All Might!" He was beyond frantic at this point. "Help Me Now! I don't care! I will pay any price you want.”
Scorpina smirked at the stupid human. “Then we have a bargain Monkey. I will collect your debt once this is all over." She stabbed her sword into the ground before she summoned a staff to her right hand. It was a long staff with a large circle at the top. Inside was a red and black sphere that looked like molten lava trapped inside. She then summoned a silver sphere with a rounded orb on top of it to her opposite hand.
Izuku recognized these items immediately. She held the staff of Rita Repulsa, but it looked slightly different and the other was a Growth Bomb. "Oh, no," he said tapping the side of his helmet. "Alpha we may have a big problem here very soon. Prepare the Zord Teleporter"
"Zord Teleporter coming online," Alpha responded quickly
Scorpina quickly jabbed the ground with her staff and the area in front of her was filled with Regular Putties, Z- Putties, Cogs, Tenga Warriors, Piranhatrons, and Quantrons. There had to be at least 2-3 dozen of each. Scorpina then pulled the pin and threw it at the downed Nomu. “Make my Monster Grow!” With a large explosion, the Nomu was revived and grew to a monstrous height. Large spikes started to appear all-overs its body as the skin took a metallic sheen to it. It let out a massive inhuman roar.
Shigaraki started laughing maniacally as he looked at his new army and revived Nomu. “You won the battle, but I will win the war. Shigaraki screamed as he flipped the Heroes the bird. “Round Two! Fight!”
Scorpina waved her staff causing her minions to vanish randomly. “I sent them all over this place to hunt down your little friends.” She started to cackle. “I decided to share so that everyone could join on all the fun!”
Izuku and the others looked around to the changing battlefield in front of them. Izuku Morpher started to glow brighter by the second. He looked down to see the light starting to pulse faster and faster. "Alpha what is going on?" he asked as the light continued to grow brighter and pulsing quickened.
“More help is on the way Rangers.” Came Alpha’s excited reply.
A large golden orb appeared in front of his Morpher until it flew into the sky and shattered into several dozen balls of lights of various colors. All over the USJ Morphers started to appear in front of various teachers and students. The is the beginning of a New Era.
All of Japan had been watching since it took over their TV screens. Parents of the students rushed out of their jobs or their homes heading to the school wanting to see their children were ok. People all over Japan were praying for the safetyof the Students and Heroes. They were sitting on the edge of their seats watching helplessly as they wait to see how the Battle for the USJ would end with Victory or Defeat.
Nezu watched the screen as he watched the support arrive. “DECA please coordinate with Alpha to get them whatever they need.”
"We are already working on it Nezu," DECA replied.
He wanted to make sure he had all his bases covered on this. “DECA teleport Lady Nagant to my office from her safehouse Please.”
“She will arrive in just a Moment.”
"Thank you DECA," Nezu said focusing his attention on the screen. "This will change everything."

Chapter Text
A convoy of Police and Emergency Vehicles were rushing towards UA with their lights and sirens blaring. The leading car of the convoy was pushing their Engine to its limits. Lieutenant Sarah Hakugare never hit the brakes as she shifted gears. "Hang on baby Momma coming." She muttered pushing her car’s engine to the absolute limit. “Please be safe girls.” She whispered.
Sarah’s morning had started off as a normal morning at the office for her with her looking over the nightly reports and signing off on completed cases. She had her TV on for background noise when the news was interrupted. She looked up and her heart dropped when she spotted her daughter and Mina on the TV followed by the appearance of numerous villains. She stood up quickly grabbing her sidearm from her desk and rushed out to her office. “UA is under attack, send anyone who is available there now!” She called out fellow officers. They all started to scramble when she spotted her best Detective “Naomasa, you’re with me.” They both rushed out to her patrol car.
Naomasa was gripping the bar above his head for dear life as his Lt. drifted around a corner barely touching the brakes. He watched his life flash before his eyes for a moment. He started praying to any deity that was listening to arrive in one piece and alive. “Lieutenant, please I am begging you, slow down a bit. I want to arrive at UA alive.”
Sarah didn’t hear him as she was completely focused on getting to UA as quickly as possible. She caught a glimpse of something in her passenger-side mirror. Sarah glanced over to see a red AE86 moving past her with ease. She spotted a blonde woman behind the wheel as the song The Tops blared from the car speakers. Sarah blinked a few times as the car continued to pull ahead of her heading in the direction of UA.
“Who the hell was that?” She wondered as the red car surged forward.
Mitsuki looked in her rearview mirror at the plethora of cop cars she just blew past in her old AE86. She would deal with repercussions from that later. If they could catch her that is. She wanted to get to her UA to see her son. “Please be safe Katsuki.” She mumbled to herself as she shifted gears to drift effortlessly through the turn. After spotting her son on the screen she ran out to the garage and fired up her old racer and took off.
Nero Monoma was swearing up a storm as the broadcast went live. This was not in the plan at all. He had pulled his son out on a ’family emergency’ to keep him out of the USJ. As soon as he saw the USJ pop up on his TV he started going into self-preservation mode. He pulled out a stack of files and ran scrubbing programs on his computer. After that was done he pulled out his phone and made a phone call.
“Hello?”
Nero looked at his watch. “It’s me. I am on my way to your place as we speak. I am cashing in that favor you owe me.” He grabbed the stack of files and placed them into his briefcase.
“Understood. I will be expecting you shortly.” The voice said in a bored tone. “After this is done we are even. No more favors.”
Nero rolled his eyes at this. “Fine, we are even when this is all over.” He rushed out of the office hoping he would be back soon to talk with his bosses. He had the perfect patsy to blame for this entire mess. Now he just needed to make sure everything went smoothly and he would be scot-free.
He made another phone call.
“Yeah?”
Nero looked through his desk once more before standing up. “Hawk’s USJ is under attack. Are you heading that way yet?”
“I know, I am flying full speed that way now.”
Nero sighed a bit knowing he could use this to his advantage. “Good. The sooner you get there the better.”
"Yes, Boss."
Nero hung up his phone and hurried out of the office. He was on a time crunch to pull this off. He needed to prove that he was still useful or they would never find his body.
(Mighty Morphin Power Ranger OST)
"It's Morphin Time!"
“Tigerzord!”
“Triceratops!”
“Tyrannosaurus!”
“SPD Emergency!”
Scorpina scowled. “Great, more Rangers. You’re like cockroaches.” She looked over at the new Ranger. “I see a few more familiar suits, well besides the Cat one." She shrugged her shoulders. "Oh well, I will just have to destroy you all."
Miruko drew Saba from her belt. "Ok, it's on bitch." She lunges forward to engage her. Scorpina raised her staff to block Miruko's attack.
"This is going to be fun," Scorpina replies as she pushed back slightly against Miruko's sword.
Mei looked up at the massive Nomu. “Uh, not to point out the obvious here, but there is a giant monster here, Izuku.” She pointed as the Nomu started to move towards them.
Ryukyu placed a hand on Izuku's shoulder. "Mei and I will handle the Monster." She nodded her head towards Miruko. "You and Mandalay can back up Miruko."
Izuku thinks for a moment before taking Ryukyu's hand and placing it on the center of the Dragon Shield. In a flash of light, the shield, armbands, and Dragon Dagger appeared on Ryukyu's Ranger suit. "A bit of power up and it will allow you to summons the Dragonzord."
“Thank you Izuku, Come along Mei.” Ryukyu said with a nod as she moved towards her fellow ranger. “Alpha, we need Dinosaur Power Now.”
“On it Rangers.”
Izuku switched his Morpher. “Magical Source, Mystic Force!” Switching to Mystic Red Ranger. “Ready to go help Miruko?” He asked Mandalay drawing his staff switching it to sword mode.
Mandalay gave him a thumbs up. “Right behind you Izuku. Let’s go help our Rabbit friend.” She summons a simple orange and white staff.
Izuku and Mandalay joined the fight against Scorpina.
Mei strapped into her seat in the cockpit and inserted her power crystal into the console of her Zord. "Triceratops online." She calls out as she moves her Zord forward. "Tail Cannon Fire!" She squeezed the trigger and started firing multiple shots into the Monster Nomu. She watched as her shots hit their marks and caused the Nomu to take a step back. "Whoa! That got him!" her celebration was short-lived as it started to regenerate before looking in her direction. “uh oh.”
"I've got your back, Mei," Ryukyu said to her as the Tyrannosaur's tail swept in hitting the Nomu in the chest. The Nomu gave a bestial roar as it stumbled back. "I summon the Dragonzord!" She drew the Dragon Dagger and started the summoning song. Ryukyu looks over and smiled under her helmet as the Dragonzord appears next to her Zord. "Now let show this thing who's boss Mei."
“Right behind you Ryukyu!” Mei calls out as she fires another round of shots.
The Tyrannosaurus swung its tail again at the Nomu that was followed up with the Tail Drill from the Dragonzord hitting him into its abdomen. With Mei's shots hitting the creature's chest. They kept up the pressure only to see it was still regenerating.
"I think we may need some more firepower," Mei says surprised at how much damage it can recover from. She tapped a few buttons on her console loading the tail cannon with new rounds. "Let's try these new experimental rounds I made."
“Wait, did you just say experimental rounds?” Ryukyu asks her as she had the Dragonzord fire a salvo of missiles from its fingers. The Nomu was growling at hits.
Mei squeezed the trigger again this time the shells had a stronger explosion to them causing the Nomu to take more damage almost falling backward from the hit. “Guess I need to increase the yield next time, but it worked out great this time.”
"Mei, just how experimental were those shots?" Ryukyu asked moving in to attack the Nomu with a bite attack.
Mei thought for a moment. “Well it only had a 62.1% chance of success in theory, but it all worked out just fine.” She switched back to her standard rounds.
“Mei dear, we are going to have a long conversation when this is over about your experiments," Ryukyu said with a sigh. Mei reminded her of Nejire at the time. 'I hope those two don't start plotting together.' She thought to herself as she shuddered at that thought. "Now let's focus on the Nomu."

Power Loader watched as Mei jumps into the Zord with a massive cannon for a tail. He face-palmed as this was a reoccurring nightmare for him. Mei and a Zord were going to result in him needing a very stiff drink or 20. He reached into his desk to grab his secret bottle of bourbon and found a note that had been taped to it.
Not during School hours.
-Nezu
Power Loader groaned as he closed the draw looking at the TV. “God help us all.”
[Main Entrance]
Ochako looked over to see the arrival of Blue Senturion and Ragdoll appeared nearby. "I am so glad to see you guys." She said smiling at the arrival of their backup. "Is anyone else on the way? She looked around to see who else was coming.
Ragdoll gave her a thumbs up. "The others have already been sent to the other areas to assist the other students." She looked over to see the villain in cuffs. "Nice job kids. You did wonderfully take down the villain before we arrived."
Setsuna stood up as her raptors kept Kurogiri pinned to the ground. "Thanks, but we are just glad to see you guys here as backup." She turned in time to see Kurogiri slip his cuffs off and vanish into a portal underneath him. "Dammit."
Blue Sentruion placed a hand on her shoulder. “It will be alright Ranger. These things happen you are still learning.”
"Still I thought we had him. I’m sorry guys.” Setsuna said feeling bad about letting the guy get away from her after it took their teamwork to capture him.
Ochako gave her a thumbs up. “I am sure we will get him. I doubt he went very far.” Ochako turned to see Vlad King walking up the steps cradling his arm with Fumikage, Komori, Tsu, with Kaminari bringing up the rear carrying a tied-up Mineta in one hand. “Glad to see you guys make it here. Also, why is he tied up?” She asked pointing at the purple student in question.
"We shall explain later," Fumikage replied quickly. "Anyone have any bandages for Vlad King?" Dark Shadow gestured to the injured teacher.
Ragdoll moved over and quickly grabbed a few bandages from one of her pouches. “I’ll get you patched up really quick.”
Vlad King nodded towards her. “I appreciate it Ragdoll.” He watched as she put his arm in a sling. He looked over and was glad to see his students were unharmed.
Ochako went over and gave Tsu a quick hug. “I am glad to see you are ok Tsu.”
Tsu returned the hug. “Thank you Ochako. Kero.” She held the hug a bit longer than she had planned.
“Alpha we may have a big problem here very soon. Prepare the Zord Teleporter”
Setsuna and Ochako looked at each other. "This can't be good," Ochako said hearing a massive explosion and watching as a giant bird-like creature with large spikes started to appear all-overs its body as the skin darkened to a metallic sheen to it. It let out a massive inhuman roar that echoes around them.
"Holy Shit!" Setsuna swore at the size of that thing. She had seen the videos of them back at the Command Center, but she had a new appreciation for seeing something like that in person.
"Holy Sprinkles!" Ochako said reaching for her Morpher. “Let’s Rocket!” 3-3-5 Enter. She was in her Ranger form about to head towards it when they were surrounded by various creatures. She drew her blaster and prepared to fight them.
“Come on! Seriously?" Kaminari and Komori cry out together at being surrounded by various-looking creatures.
Ochako moved Tsu and the others behind her and Setsuna.
Blue Senturion drew his sidearm and moved to protect the students. "Students please stay behind myself, Ragdoll, and the Rangers here. We will keep you all safe."
Vlad grit his teeth about being unable to fight due to his arm. He clenched his good fist will to do down fighting protecting his students. He prepared to fight them with his good arm.
Mt. Lady was ready to fight. Thirteen was prepared to use her Quirk to thin out the numbers.
As Blue Senturion, Ragdoll, Setsuna, and Ochako were prepared to fight as lights started to swirl in the air above the central plaza. Soon light started flying all over the place.
“Is that what I think it is?” Ochako asked already knowing the answer.
“Hell, Yes," Setsuna said pumping her fist in the air.
Soon orbs of light swirled around them as orbs of light stopped in front of Ida, Kaminari, Komori, Tsu, Thirteen, Mt. Lady, Ragdoll, and Fumikage. They each reached out to touch the orbs that flashed brightly. As the light faded Morpher appears in their hands.
"Now help us in pushing these back guys so we can take back the USJ," Ochako called out to them as she watched as the creatures started to take a step away from them.
Fumikage nods his head. “Let’s do it.” As everyone took a ready stance.
"It's Morphin Time!"
“Samurai Storm, Ranger Form Ha!” Fumikage calls out. “Green Samurai Ranger.”
“Black Ranger power!” Tsu calls out. “Black Ninja Ranger.” The coin in her belt represented a frog.
“Shift into Turbo!" Ida Says. “Mountain Blaster Turbo Power! Blue Turbo Ranger!”
"Magical Source, Mystic Force!" Komori Calls out. “Green Mystic Ranger!”
"Magical Source, Mystic Force!" Kaminari Calls out. “Yellow Mystic Ranger!”
“Lightspeed Rescue!” Ragdoll calls out. "Lightspeed Pink Ranger, Rescue ready!"
“Let’s Rocket! M-E-G-A.” Thirteen Calls out. “Silver Space Ranger!”
"Zeo Ranger V: Red!" Mt. Lady Calls out.” Red Zeo Ranger!”
The new Rangers looks over their new suits. Mt. Lady started bouncing with joy. "YES! I'm a Ranger!" Thirteen was looking over the new suit that gave her a less bulky appearance. Fumikage and Kaminari seemed to be looking over their suits.
Komori seemed to be just as happy about getting a Ranger suit as Mt. Lady. “I’m a freaking magical girl!’ She squealed with delight as she fiddled with her skirt.
"Alright, everyone," Setsuna calls out to them. "Let deal with these guys and help out classmates. For UA!" She pointed her sword at their opponents.
They all drew their weapons and faced off against the mixture of minions. “FOR UA!”
Ida was fighting side-by-side with Blue Senturion who had summoned his Turbo Hand Blasters and was firing at the enemy as his robotic counterpart was doing the same.
"Follow my lead Young Ida." Blue Senturion said as he moved over to protect the students that did not receive a Morpher.
“I am right behind you sir!” Ida shouted as he followed the robot. “It will be my honor to assist you in this battle!”
Ochako and Setsuna were standing next to each other taking down several Cogs and Tenga’s that came after them. Ochako was blasting them away with her Astro Blaster as Setsuna protected her with her sword and raptors.
“Not how I thought this day was going to go," Ochako said summoning her Satellite Stunner before combining them. “Spend the day learning from Thirteen and get some Rescue training, but no Villains had to ruin that for us.”
Setsuna dropped a putty with a spin kick as her raptors were ripping a Tenga to shreds. “Right there with you Ochako.” She dropped a Z-putty with a kick to the chest. “Did you really say Holy Sprinkles earlier?” she asked with a teasing tone.
"C-Can we talk about this later," Ochako said embarrassed as she quickly wanted to change the subject. She hoped she would forget about it.
Setsuna started to laugh. “I will remember to ask you later!” she teased. “Miss Sprinkles.”
Ochako let out a groan. “Drat.”
Mt. Lady and Thirteen were moving through the minions as they went to assist Blue Senturion and Ida. “Zeo V Power Sword!” Mt Lady called out as she started hacking through the minions. “Vlad keep the students together.”
“On it.” He said corralling his students the best he could with his injured arm.
Thirteen summoned her Super Silverizer and started blasting several of them away. When a couple of machine-looking ones tried to get close she switched it to sword mode to cut them down. "This suit feels incredible. I have so move flexibility and movement."
“You ain’t seen nothing yet.” Mt Lady said as she blocked a massive blade that was coming at her.
Fumikage was cutting through his opponents with ease. His sword was sharp and he was able to move with speed and precision. “This is incredible.” He said deflecting a few blades with ease and taking them out with a punch or a kick.
Tsu had summoned her Power Axe and was a blur of motion as she flipped and leaped around taking them down her Axe. She stood up and rested it on her shoulder and glanced as a few of the bird creatures started to move away from her. "Interesting. Looks like it’s time for this frog to go bird-hunting.” She stalked forward as they moved away from her.
Kaminari had changed his staff into its crossbow mode and was dropped the creatures as they got closer to his classmates. "This is just so cool." He said aiming at another target. "I hope this is permanent."
Komori was laughing as she summoned vines and started tossing the creatures around. “Same here this is like a dream come true!” She exclaimed as she tossed a machine creature into a gray one.
As they started to thin out the numbers more appeared ready to go.
"This is going to be interesting," Komori said as she started to key in a code on her Morpher.
[Central Plaza]
Izuku jumped forwards bringing his sword down towards Scorpina's left side. Miruko heard him coming and moved around attacking Scorpina’s right side.
Scorpina raised her staff to block Izuku's incoming strike and then quickly shifted her grip to block Miruko's attack as well. "Nice try, but you won't be able to take me out like that." The smug look on her face lasted right up until she was hit in the face by staff sending her tumbling towards the ground.
"You forgot about little old me," Mandalay says as she twirls her staff as Scorpina looked at her in surprise. "Just give up." She pointed her staff towards her.
Scorpina spat a bit of blood on the ground. "I guess I will have to talk the kid gloves off then." She vanished as she had done before.
Miruko growled at this until several putties and Cogs started moving towards them. “Guess I will have to work off some frustration on these clowns first.”
“I would advise caution Miruko. Scorpina is known to be quite underhanded.” Saba advised her.
Miruko nodded her head. “I will Saba, now let take these things out.” She performed a spin kick on a Tenga before flipping to drop kick a nearby Cog.
Mandalay staff became a blur of motion as she took out several putties and Cogs. “Where did she go?” She asked as a Quantron came at her with its massive blade. She defected his blade with ease and delivered a high kick to its head.
Izuku took out a pair of Piranhatrons with his sword before grabbing a Tenga by the neck and tossing it into a Putty. “She is probably nearby watching us. That staff of hers is new.” He spotted Scorpina nearby with her staff stabbed into the ground. “There she is.” Izuku points out to his fellow Rangers.
Scorpina smirked as she started charging up the lightning between her hands. "Try this on for size Rangers." She thrusts her hands in their direction sending multiple bolts of lightning headed towards them.
The trio were barely able to dodge her attack as she hit her own minions in the process. They looked up to see that she had vanished again with her staff. She started to cackle that echoed around them.
“Ugh, why won’t she stay and fight.” Miruko groaned as looked for her again.
"I don't think she intends to fight us fairly Miruko." Mandalay brushed the dirt off her suit.
Izuku tightened the grip on his sword. "She's up to something."
She appeared long enough to summon more creatures and send them away before disappearing again.
[Central Plaza]
All Might and Shouta stood back to back as the mixture of creatures surrounded them. Shouta adjust the remains of his scarf to fight as best as he could. He knew that having All Might with him would increase their chances of survival. "Don't hold back on these things All Might," Eraserhead said preparing to make the first move. "I don't think they are human." He had seen the creatures before when he first went to the Command Center so long ago. He couldn't remember their names but knew that they would have to go all out.
“Understood Eraserhead.” All Might said pulling his fist back. “I say we dispatch of these things and assist Young Midoriya and the Others.” He glanced over at the three battling Scorpina.
The creatures around them rushed towards them. Eraserhead went on the offensive delivering a kick to one of the fish-looking ones. He used his scarf to pull a gray one with a blade towards him before tossing it into another. "We are outclassed with that one. Focus on these things and help the students."
All Might sighed as he hated to agree after watching what she was capable of. He rushed towards two purple bird-like creatures. “Carolina Smash!” He delivered a downward chop to both of them causing them to explode covering him in slimy purple ooze and black feathers. He wiped his face spitting out some ooze and feathers that had gotten into his mouth. He hears a snort and turns to see Eraserhead still fighting. “Did you just laugh at me?”
“Now you are hearing things All Might," Eraserhead said smiling as he faced away from the blonde teacher. "I think you got a little something on your face."
“Ha Ha.” All Might replied as he went to punch a machine-looking one that shattered into pieces.
They were interrupted as a ball of light stopped in front of Eraserhead. He cocked his head slightly as he felt it calling out to him. There was a flash of light and he looked down at his wrist. “Interesting.” He noted the creatures started to back away from him. He would protect his students and show these thugs the price of attacking UA. “Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!" Shouta called out flashing purple. “Jungle Fury Wolf Ranger!"
All Might looked over to see her fellow teacher in a Ranger suit. "Looking good there Eraserhead."
Eraserhead simply nodded his head. “Let’s finish this.” He stopped for a moment and looked back at All Might. “Be careful of the purple ones All Might. If you hit them too hard they tend to explode into purple ooze.” He said smirking under his helmet.
“You’re a riot Eraser.” All Might grumbled as he lowered the power of his punches so he was not covered in more ooze and feathers. “Maybe I should introduce you to Ms. Joke with those kinds of jokes.”
Eraserhead surged forward driving his knee into the nearest enemy and bringing down his elbow to finish it off. "Who's next?"
All Might sent a blast of air at the purple one sending them flying into the wall with a squish. Their ooze ran down the wall as feathers started drifting to the ground. “Much better.” He took down a few of the machine-looking ones when he heard something behind him. He spun and punched it forgetting to keep his power in check as it exploded covering him once more in ooze and feathers. “Seriously?” He asked with a groan. He heard actual laughter from Eraserhead this time. “this is not funny Eraserhead!” All Might called out.
"You are right All Might, it's not funny," Eraserhead said with a snicker. “This is downright hysterical. I wish I could have a picture of this to hang up in my classroom." He laughed some more as he started picturing it in his mind the posters covering the walls.
“Don’t even joke about that.” All Might replied cleaning the slime from his face with a grimace. “At least no one saw that.”
Across the internet pictures of him covered in slime were everywhere. They were calling him ‘Ooze Might.’ Several people had already printed the picture and sent them to UA addressed to Eraserhead. One of the companies behind the All MightActionFigure line thought it would be a great addition for collectors. They immediately took several screenshots of Ooze Might and sent the idea to the design team to get a prototype created ASAP so they could have it on the market before interest in it faded.
[Downpour Zone]
Ibara let out a sigh of relief as Cementoss and 3 other heroes arrived at the Downpour Zone. "The Lord has answered our prayers." She looked at the three that arrived with their teacher. They only looked slightly older than them.
“Hey everyone!” the Blue-haired girl said waving at them. “Have no fear, because Nejire-chan is here!” She was hovering in the air with spirals of light around her arms and legs. She raised an arm and blasted several of the remaining villains with minimal effort.
Kosei let out a slow whistle. “She made it look so effortlessly.” He watched as she floated around blasted at the villains with a smile.
"They are the Big 3," Cementoss told them as looked over his students and created an area to get them out of the rain. "Those 3 are the Top Hero Candidates of UA. They are the strongest that are looking at promising careers after they graduate from UA this year.”
One of the villains tried to run away as only for a blonde boy to fly out of the ground knocking him to the ground. “You guys picked the wrong place to attack.” He flexed his muscles. “Lemillion is on the scene.” He smiled as the villains started to run away.
They didn't get far as the last her grabbed the of the Big 3 lifted their arms and turned into several tentacles and grabbed the villain. The hooded figure then toss the villain to the ground.
Lemillion went over and patted him on the back. “Nice job Suneater!’ He smiled as they started to take down the last of the villains.
The students were in awe of how fast they took down the remaining villains without breaking a sweat. They had moved to the shelter the Cementoss had made trying to dry off a bit and catch their breath.
Jurota cleaned off his glasses as watched the last of the villains go down. “Those 3 are no joke being the Top Students.” They were already walking back towards them. Koda was nodding his head in agreement at that statement.
"That is very true," Mezo said listening around to make sure there were no more surprises.
A massive explosion drew everyone's attention towns a massive creature with a bird face.
"Wow, that thing is huge!' Nejire says hovering in the air looking at the giant creature in awe. "I'm gonna go fight it."
Lemillion quickly grabbed her ankle. “Nejire-Chan, No!” He felt his feet sliding as he was pulled forward.
She looked at her friend. “Nejire-Chan, Yes!” She pointed at the giant creature. “Lemillion it’s a giant monster and I want to go fight it.” She whined trying to get free from her classmate.
Lemillion looked over at the other person in their group. “Suneater, help me!” Hoping his friend would help Nejire see reason.
Suneater looked between his two friends and took a step back. “I-I’ll stay out of this.
Cementoss moved in front of his students “This is not good.” He was preparing to protect his students. He was not sure if he would be able to stop that thing if it came after them.
Ibara and the other students looked in horror at the sheer size of the beast. They were brought back to their surroundings when various-looking creatures surrounded them.
"It seems the Lord's trials are not yet over," Ibara said extending her vines.
Mezo stretched a bit before dropping into a fighting stance. “Seem so.”
Jurota growled at their new opponents ready to cut loose.
Koda was asking for more help from the rats. He stood beside his classmates trying to be brave.
Kosei let the air wrap around his arms prepared to attack.
The Big three moved in front of the younger students all three prepared to cut loose.
Before the creatures could move forward orbs of light flew around them as they stopped in front of Ibara, Kosei, Mezo, Jurota, Koda, and the Big 3. Each of them reached out as they hear something calling out to them.
Multiple flashes of light blinked them all momentarily as the students looked to see that had similar devices to Izuku. Lemillion and Suneater looked a bit confused, but Nejire-Chan started bouncing with usual excitement.
"YES!" Nejire-Chan shouted as she turned to her companions. "I can be just like Ryukyu! This is awesome!" She dropped to her feet smiling brightly. "Follow my lead guys." She readied her Morpher. Lemillion and Suneater shrugged and moved beside her.
“Ninja Storm! Ranger Form! Ha!" Nejire calls out "Power of Air!"
“Ninja Storm! Ranger Form! Ha!" Suneater calls out “Power of Water!"
“Ninja Storm! Ranger Form! Ha!" Lemillion calls out "Power of Earth!"
Ibara looked at her classmates and after they all nodded at her they followed Nejire-chan's lead.
"Wild Access! Ha!" Ibara calls out “Blazing Lion, Red Wild Force Ranger!"
"Wild Access! Ha!" Kosei calls out “Soaring Eagle, Yellow Wild Force Ranger!"
"Wild Access! Ha!" Mezo calls out “Surging Shark, Blue Wild Force Ranger!"
"Wild Access! Ha!" Koda calls out “Iron Bison, Black Wild Force Ranger!"
"Wild Access! Ha!" Jurota calls out “Noble Tiger, White Wild Force Ranger!"
Ibara and the others look over their suits with awe. The turn to see the creatures that had surrounded start to back away. "Let us put an end to this, my friends," Ibara says as she dropped into a fighting crouch. Her fellow Ranger followed her lead as they mirrored her.
Nejire was a blur of motion. “Hawk Blaster!” She said a blaster appeared in her hands and she started firing away.
“Great, now she has a blaster." Lemillion groaned as he held out his hand. "Lion Hammer!" he went into action as he started swinging away sending the creatures flying.
Suneater drew his sword and was a blur of motion as he cut several of them down. "T-That is incredible." He said quietly as he moved to back up his friends.
Ibara summoned her Red Lion Fang to her hand and went on the offensive. It was a red gauntlet stylized as a red lion. Her other hand had claws at the end of her glove allowing her to punch and slash through the creatures. "Blazing Fire." She said punching one with her gauntlet setting it ablaze. "Incredible."
Kosei glided around the battlefield with his new wings landing kick before flying away. This was a dream for him to find a way to fly with his quirk. He landed on the ground and summoned his Eagle sword before moving to fight beside Ibara.
Mezo had already summoned his Shark Fins to his hands and started cutting through them as he surged forward through the creatures. "This is an interesting turn of events.” He said before making his way towards Koda.
Koda had been dodging attacks that were coming towards him. He caught one of the fists and with ease tossed them a good distance. He did not like fighting, but they were ganging upon him. He watched as one of them was trying to attack Kosei from behind. He moved forward with his Bison Axe in hand and took the creature down with one swing before it could reach its target.
Kosei turned and gave Koda a thumbs up. "Thanks, man!"
Koda gave him a thumbs-up as well before he started fighting side by side with Mezo.
Jurota was moving fast as he hack them with his claws he let out a growl as they tried to overpower him, but he took them down with several power swings of his claws. He let out a roar when they went down. "This is a way to fight!" He moved to stay close with his classmates. Just as the numbers were starting to thin out more appeared around them.
Both groups of Rangers stood together as they prepared to fight the next way. "Let us finish this," Ibara said as they all dropped into various fighting stances.
“Yeah! More fun for me.” Nejire said aiming her blaster.
Juroata let out a growl. “Let’s cut loose.”
[Conflagration Zone]
Ojiro let out a sigh of relief as he watched Robo Knight and Snipe arrived at the Conflagration zone with their weapons drawn.
“Take a break kids, we got it from here partner.” Snipe said as he drew his pistols and started taking shots at the remaining villains. He let off a salvo of rubber bullets that dropped several off them quickly.
Robo Knight already had his blaster leveled and mirrored Snipe's actions of dropping the last of the villains before moving towards the students. "We are here to assist you. Are any of you in need of medical attention?"
"Manga got hit in the head with a brick," Ojiro said quickly as gestures to their downed classmate. "We have been holding them off until you got here." He watched as Robo Knight headed straight for the injured student.
Robo Knight looked him over before tapping the side of his head. “DECA, I have an injured student that is in need of medical assistance." Robo Knight knelt closer and placed a hand on the Manga’s chest. “Student is ready to be teleportation.”
A moment later Manga vanished into a blur of white light.
“Where did he go?” Itsuka asked concerned about her classmate as Robot Knight stood back up.
Robo Knight turned towards her. “I had him teleported to Recovery Girl’s office. He will be seen by the medical staff we have standing by.” He moved to look over the other students.
Snipe moved towards the students as holstering his pistols. “Y’all did a good job here today kids.” He said tipping his head to the remaining students. “Now time to get you, kids, out of here and someplace safe."
Boom.
A massive creature with a bird face towered over everything as it let out a roar.
“What in tarnation?” Snipe asked as his heart dropped to his stomach looking at the sheer size of the creature.
Robo Knight moved in front of Snipe and the Students in an instant. “Everyone stay behind me I will keep you safe.
Itsuka was brought back to her surroundings when various looking creatures surrounded them. "Out the frying pain." She said enlarging her fists.
“And into the Fire.” Kamakiri finished as was itching to fight the newcomers.
Orbs of various colored light started to fly around the students as they stopped in front of them. As each one of them touched the orb it flashed leaving them in awe.
Yui was normally stoic and calm began to smile and bounce in excitement.
Kamakiri and Kuroiro looked at the devices on their wrists with interest
Itsuka turned it over in her hand a few times,
Ojiro slid the device on his left hand.
"Now we will fight together to take back the USJ from these creatures," Itsuka said sliding the glasses over her eyes.
Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!" Itsuka called out “Jungle Fury Red Ranger!"
Jungle Beast, Spirit Unleashed!" Ojiro called out “Jungle Fury Rhino Ranger!"
"Thunder Storm! Ranger Form! Ha!" Kamakiri called out "Power of Thunder! Navy Ranger!"
"Thunder Storm! Ranger Form! Ha!" Kuroiro called out "Power of Thunder! Crimson Ranger!"
"RPM! Get In Gear!" Yui called out "RPM Ranger Silver Ranger!"
Robo Knight nods his head towards all of them. “Congratulation’s Rangers, you have just taken a step into a larger world.” He turned towards the enemy. “Let send them packing.”
Itsuka cracked her knuckled as she dropped into a fighting stance. “I’m game.”
Ojiro took his normal martial arts stance. “Yes, let’s get this done.”
Kamakiri and Kuroiro summoned their weapons. “Let’s do it!” They said together.
Yui moved over next to Itsuka. “This is incredible. Izuku is my new best friend.” She said excitedly as the wheels on her helmet started to spin.
“Poor Izuku.” Itsuka teased.
Snipe drew his pistols and pointed at the nearest creature. “I would be a terrible teacher if I didn’t help my students.”
Itsuka lunged forward and went on the offensive dropping several of her opponents with punches and kicks. She summoned her junglechucks and used them to defect the ones with bladed weapons. “This will teach them. “She dropped down and swept their legs send a few more to the ground.
Ojiro used his Jungle Blade to deliver devastating karate chops to his enemies. They tried to overwhelm in, but he was able to stop them with his kicks and karate chops. “Interesting.” He said before we went back into action.
Kamakiri and Kuroiro were a blur of crimson and navy light as they moved through the enemy. Kuroiro stopped and fired off his blaster, while Kamakiri was taking them down with his staff and Navy Antlers. "This reminds me of our childhood Kuro," Kamakiri said taking down a few of the purple bird creatures.
Kuroiro dropped a machine one and turned towards his friend. “You and I remember our childhoods very differently.”
Yui was a blur of silver as she sped in-between them and slashed them with her dagger. She skidded to a halt to see them start falling over. "I feel like I'm Ultraman and it is a dream come true." She sped away again and performed a fly kick to a fish creature that was coming behind Snipe.
Snipe and Robo Knight were back-to-back as they were taking down those that got past the students. Robo Knight had switched his weapon to sword mode. He handed sniper a pair of Time Force Blaster he had summoned to Snipe. “This will work better than your normal weapons.”
"Much appreciated their partner." Snipe said as he adjusted his grip and he fired a few shots to get a better feel for them. After he got the hang of them he was firing away with ease. "YEE-Haw this like shooting fish in a barrel!”
Through their teamwork, they had them down to the last few stragglers when more appeared ready to fight against them.
"Seems like Round two is in order," Ojiro said as started to roll his shoulders.
Kamakiri smiled under his helmet. “I was just getting warmed up anyway.”
Kuroiro rested his staff on his shoulder. “I could use the exercise.”
"I wanted to finish this so I can thank my new friend for the suit," Yui said as readjusted her footing.
Itsuka started giggling at her oldest friend. "Alright, Yui I will help you out."
[Mountain Zone]
Midnight and Present Mic arrived at the Mountain Zone to the screams of villains and the sound of a gun being fired repeatedly. They found most of the villains on the ground unconscious. The remains once were running towards the Pro Heroes.
“Please you have to save us!” one of them said begged as they dropped to their knees in front of them.
Midnight just blinked at them for a moment. “I am used to people begging at me, but not like this.” She looked at the terrified expression on their faces.
“Not the time Midnight.” Present Mic groaned to his old friend.
Another fell to their knees hold their hands out to be cuffed. “Please we surrender.”
Present Mic quirked an eyebrow at the villain before grabbing a few pairs of cuffs and started arresting them. “All this trouble to attack UA and you all surrendering?”
“Their monsters!” The first one said shivering in fear.
Midnight walked over to see her students and smiled. Momo and Kyoka were tying up some villains as Pony, Mina and Toru kept an eye on them with a shotgun. “Toru dear, where did you get the shotgun?” She asked as she walked closer.
“Miss Midnight!” Toru exclaimed excitedly as she lowered her weapon. “I am so glad to see you! And I got it from Momo.”
Momo and Kyoka finished typing up a group of villains. Momo looked over and sheathe her sword. "Miss Midnight, Present Mic. I very am glad to see the both of you here.” She gave them a slight bow. She felt relieved to see teachers coming to their aid.
Present Mic gave her a sloppy salute. "Hey, Little Listeners. Nice job handling these guys." He looked over their handy work. "They picked the wrong girls to mess with today.”
"That is true Teach," Kyoka said resisting the urge to kick a few of them after they were all tied up for their earlier comments.
Mina gave him a double peace sigh. “yeah they were no sweat with our teamwork.” She sent a wink over at Toru. “Toru is a menace with that shotgun.”
“Hey. I resemble that remark.” Toru hollered before she started to laugh.
"We won that is all that matters." Pony said patting the invisible girl's shoulder.
Midnight gave them all a thumbs up. “You all did a good job. Now let’s get you all out of here and back to the entrance.” The girls nodded in agreement of getting out of this place.
“Alpha we may have a big problem here very soon. Prepare the Zord Teleporter”
Midnight, Momo, and Kyoka looked alarmed at each other.
BOOM.
They all turned to see a massive bird creature towering over everything.
“You have got to be kidding me!” Mina says looking at the creature. “Come on!”
Momo and Kyoka start reaching for their Morphers knowing that Izuku and the others may need some help. Before they could morph, they surround by various creatures that Momo, Kyoka, and Midnight recognized as Ranger minions.
"Everyone, please stay behind Kyoka and I," Momo said with her Morpher in hand.
Kyoka raised her arm allowing her Morpher to appear. "We will take care of these guys.
Orbs of light flew around them flashing various colors as they stopped in front of Midnight, Present Mic, Mina, Toru, and Pony.
“Momo are those?” Kyoka asked.
Momo nodded her head. “I think so.”
Midnight and the other touched the orb that flashed leaving them with Morphers in their hands.
"No way," Mina said excitedly.
Pony looked in awe at her Morpher. "Amazing."
Toru looked at the white diamond-shaped gem on her silver bracelet. "So cool." She felt a warm sensation spread over her body.
“Oh, this is incredible.” Midnight said admiring the black stone on her wrist.
"Well, this is new." Present Mic chimed in as he held a key in his hand.
Momo blinded at his development and smiled. "Well, I guess there is only one thing for us to do then.”
Kyoka smirked. “Oh, yeah." She looked at everyone. "It's Morphin Time.
"Magical Source, Mystic Force!" Mina calls out. "Pink Mystic Ranger!"
"Shift Into Turbo!" Present Mic Calls out "Dune Star Turbo Power! Yellow Turbo Ranger!”
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha!" Kyoka calls out “Yellow Dino Ranger!"
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha!" Midnight calls out “Black Dino Ranger!"
"White Ranger, Dino Power!" Toru calls out. “White Dino Ranger!"
"Magna Power!" Pony Calls out. “Magna Defender!”
"Go Go Samurai!" Momo calls out. “Red Samurai Ranger!”
The new rangers looked over their new suits and touched their helmeted faces.
"I look adorable," Mina said twirling slightly looking at her cape.
Midnight was nodding her head. “I always did look good in black.”
"Wow, this is pretty wicked," Toru said looking over her white suit.
Pony ran her hands the horn on her helmet. “This is fricking sweet.”
“Not a bad color on me.” Present Mic said glancing over his yellow suit. “Reminds me of my old car.”
"Look at yourselves later," Kyoka summoned her Ptera Grips. "It's time to fight now."
Momo drew her Spin Sword. “Let’s do this Rangers.”
Preset Mic summons his Star Chargers and started punching several of the creatures send an electrical charge with each hit. “This is pretty incredible. OH YEAH!” He screamed as he punches a bird creature in the face. When a couple of them tried to attack him from the side He sent out a voice attack sending them to the ground.
Midnight drew her Brachio Staff from her belt and started to stalk towards a pair of Tenga Warriors. "You naughty things need to be punished for attacking my students." The first one launched at her. Midnight dodge and spun around to strike its back sending it to the ground. The second tried to attack from her blind spot. Midnight released a bit of her quirk causing it to become disoriented. She spun around hitting the Tenga with multiple strikes. "Now, who needs to be punished next?" She asked looking around.
Toru drew her Drago sword and twirled it in her hands creating a half dozen arrows made of yellow energy. Sen sent them towards several of the machinal-looking things and when the arrows exploded on contact sending machine parts flying in all directions. "Note to self, Arrows explode." She looked over to check on her friend.
Mina dodged a few attacks with her dancer's grace. She drew her Magi Staff and sent a bust of wind knocking one of them to the ground. “Sweet I can do magic!” Mina said spinning away from a fish-looking thing. “No touch fish-face.” She raised her hand spraying it in her acid. She swung her Magi Staff towards it sending more flying away as she released acid into the wind.
Pony held her Magna Blaster in her hands. She racked the slide and pointed at the nearest creature."Thank you, mom, for taking me to the gun range.” She said in English as she dropped a couple of the creatures in precise shots. She moved forwards as she aimed for her next shot. "Any know how to beat the things with a Z on its chest?" She asked after it got back op after two shots. She took down a machine looking one before returning back to the creature in question
Momo sent a wave of five towards a pair of Quantrons. “That is a Z-putty. Hit them in the Z and they will fall apart.” Momo had never been more grateful for the lesson Izuku about the different minions in the Ranger Archives. She cut down a few putties and burned with a fire attack.
Kyoka was gliding back and forth cutting them down in a blur of yellow. “Remind me to thank Izuku later for all those boring lessons." She flipped backward evading attacks from a trio of Cogs. She landed gracefully on her feet and then flew forwards taking down all three of them in quick strikes.
As they were about to finish off the last of them a flash of light and more minions arrived ready to fight.
"This is getting tedious," Momo said readying her sword.
Kyoka prepared to fly forward again. "Yes, it."
Mina let the air start swirling around her as acid started to seep from her suit. "Well, I want to get back to Izuku and others. Let do this."
"Right beside you Mina," Toru said as she created more arrows.
Present Mic entered into a simple fighting stance. "Let's rock this out, Little Listeners."
“Seems there are more that need to be punished.” Midnight sad touching an orb on her Brachio Staff.
Pony rested her blaster on her shoulders. “Let send these things packing.”
Ryukyu watched as their attacks were still not doing enough damage to take the monstrous Nomu down. "Alpha we need the rest of the Dinozords."
"They are on their way Ryukyu."
The remaining Zords started to arrive near Ryukyu and Mei. “We Need Megazord Power Now!” They called out together as the Zords combined to form the Megazord. The Dragonzord was battling with its Tail Drill and missiles against the Nomu to allow them to complete the sequence. The Megazord stood tall with a sword in one hand and the Mastodon Shield in the other.
"Alright, Mei let's take this thing down," Ryukyu said as she got comfortable in the center seat.
Mei was to her right operation the console. “Let’s do it!” She said as the Megazord moved forward.
They blocked a punch with the shield as Ryukyu brought the sword down across its chest. It roared in anger as it stumbled back the slash on its chest slowly starting to heal. "Ok, we need to keep up the pressure. Mei transfer more power to the sword please."
"On It," Mei replied as her fingers flew over the control panel. "I increased power output by 20% Ryukyu.” Mei gave her a thumbs-up as she was still looking for places to pull extra power from just in case they needed it.
Ryukyu nodded as she instructed the Dragonzord to attack the Nomu alongside them. The Dragonzord sent missiles into its face as they brought the Power Sword down again leaving a larger slash across its chest that was not showing signs of rapid healing. The Dragonzord drill hit the Nomu in the chest in the same sport Ryukyu and Mei had just landed her attack. The Nomu fell to a knee as it growled in pain.
“Let’s finish this," Ryukyu said as she charged up the sword. “Power Slash!” They call out together as they brought their attack down.
The Nomu almost moved out the way as the sword severed its left arm. The arm fell to the ground with a resounding thud. The Nomu lout out a furious roar as grasped at the missing limb.
"That had to hurt," Mei said as she pumped her fist at taking the creature's arm.
Ryukyu started to agree with her when she noticed that the missing arm was starting to grow back to its full length. “I believe we will have to take it up another notch then.”
[Landslide Zone]
Tiger and Pixie-Bob arrived at the Landslide Zone. To find a ton of ice and villains either frozen, sunk in the ground, or unconscious with an arrow attached to them. “Nice work kittens,” Pixie-Bob said as she gave them all a smile and thumbs up. “Are any of you hurt?” She asked as she was looking them over.
Reiko gave her a thumbs up. "I believe we may have few scrapes here and there, but we remain unharmed." She walked over to the arriving heroine. "I am glad to see you have arrived to assist us." She gave Pixie-Bob a slight bow.
Tiger nodded his head in approval. “You all did good dealing with this trash.” He started dragging those he could together to tie them up until they could be properly detained. “I wouldn’t mind taking some time to train all of you.” He started putting the defeated villains into a pile.
Shoto watched as Juzo and Rin started to help Tiger with the now captured villains. He flexed his right and winced. He looked down to see that he had overdone it with his ice. His wrist and fingers felt stiff and painful. He was about to ignore it when he felt someone take his hand. He looked up to see Reiko was holding his hand. "What are you doing?" Shoto asked confused as to what she was doing.
Reiko quirked an eyebrow at him. "I saw you wince when you flexed your hand and decided to come to check on you." She looked over his hand. "Your hand is freezing. Is this because of your quirk?"
Shoto hesitated for a moment. “Yes, I’ve been hurt worse than this when I train at home.” He tried to pull his hand back be she stopped him. “It will be fine in a few hours.”
Reiko shook her head. “The stubbornness of men.” She held his hand between hers and started to warm his hand. It was just a moment of peace they shared as she helped warm his hand up.
[UA]
Fuyumi was holding her students tight and smiled at the sweet moment her brother was having with his classmate. ‘I wonder if she is interested in Shoto.’ She thought as she wanted to see her brother smile again. It had been years since she had seen one from him. She was hoping that they would hit it off, but she would not push him per se. She would just nudge him in that direction. That is was big sisters were for.
[Landslide Zone]
Pixie-bob smiled as she kept an eye on the two of them. It would be sweet if it had happened somewhere else besides the USJ that was under attack. She wanted to coo at the sight of young love, but that would have to wait. “Alright kittens, Time to get you all out of here. Follow us.”
Boom.
A massive bird creature stood over the USJ as spikes were visible on its body.
“What the hell is that?” Pixie-bob asked looking at the giant creature.
Tiger clenched his fists. “Nothing good.”
They were surrounded by various creatures that appeared out of thin air.
"It seems our fight is not finished yet," Reiko said taking up a ready stance beside Shoto.
Shoto prepared to use his ice power knowing that he would not be able to use them for long. "I say we take them down hard and fast."
Pixie-Bob and Tiger moved closer to protect the students. Tiger started to limber up his muscles and cracked his knuckles. Pixie-Bob prepared to create golems from the earth around her.
Orbs of colorful light flew around them flashing various colors as they stopped in front of the Pros and students present. Each of them heard something calling out to them as they reached out to touch them.
Shoto heard a second voice speaking to him. ‘So, you are the one huh? Interesting, very Interesting.’ The voice said as it went silent.
Shoto blinked and looked to see he was holding a device in his hand. He looked around to see others were holding similar devices. "Strange," Shoto said as he looked around to see the creatures were nervous about them having it. They stood together as followed their instincts.
"Go Galactic!" Reiko called out "Galaxy Pink Ranger!"
"Overdrive Accelerate!" Juzo called out “Overdrive! Blue Ranger!"
Dino Charger, Ready! Energize! Unleash the Power!" Rin called out “Red Dino Ranger!”
"Lightspeed Rescue!" Pixie-bob called out "Yellow Ranger, Rescue ready!"
"Lightspeed Rescue!" Tiger called out "Green Ranger, Rescue ready!"
"Wild Access! Ha!" Shoto called out “Lunar Wolf Ranger!"
Each of them looked over their new forms as the light faded revealing their Ranger forms. As they were focused on this a black shadow moved away from Shoto away from prying eyes.
Reiko summoned her Beta Bow. “I grow weary of this.” She took her stance prepared to fire.
Rin moved beside her with his sword in hand. “Yes, I would like to call it a day.
Pixie-Bob and Tiger drew their blaster ready to fight. “Let’s do this kittens.” She tells them as she takes aim alongside her teammate.
Juzo follows their lead and draws his blaster as well. “Right behind you.”
Shoto draws his Lunar Cue and drops into a fighting stance. “Let go.”
In the nearby shadows, a figure steps out and looks around at the chaos going on. The figure was tall in black armor and a long coat. His face of that of a black wolf's head with yellow eyes. A long black horn protruded from his head. Zen-Aku watched as the Rangers fight there was through the foot soldiers. He took a deep breath and smelled the fresh air. He summons his Crescent blade to his hand resting the giant curved blade on his shoulders. “Why am I here Animus.” He asked watching the child fighting as the Lunar Wolf Ranger. “Is this what my purpose is now?” He watches as a new wave of creatures were trying to ambush the Rangers. “We will talk about this someday Animus, but for now I have something to keep me busy.” He started walking towards them. He draws his blade back. "Crescent Blade! Crescent Wave!" sending a wave of yellow energy taking out a huge chunk of their second wave. He dismisses his weapon and pulled out a small flute knife from his belt. He started to play an old tune as he walked away from the battle. He would find the boy later. They would have much to talk about.
Shoto and the other watched as the second wave arrived. They were all surprised when a large wave of yellow energy devastated the enemy. They looked but didn't see anyone. "Who did that?" Shoto asked as he felt a pull to something nearby.
“I don’t know, But I won’t turn down their help," Pixie-Bob said aiming at one of the creatures.
Reiko was firing multiple shots with speed and grace. "Fight now, we can talk it later."
"Agreed," Shoto said taking down a few enemies still feeling that pull.
[Ruin Zone]
Melissa raised her shield as a villain spat a large amount of acid causing her shield to melt. She released her shield and punched them enough to send them flying. She frowned at her shield ruined state and watched as Kiri and Tetsutetsu both took down another of the villains. They were starting to gain the upper hand as their teamwork as the numbers started to dwindle. She looked over as a pair of lights appeared behind the remaining villains. She could see that their teacher's Ectoplasm and Hound Dog arrived on the scene. Hound Dog took off his muzzle and lunged to take out the villains.
Ectoplasm made clones to take care of the villains as he went to check on the students. "Are you all ok?" He asked as he looked over at the students.
"I think we're alright if not a little rugged up," Kirishima said as he let out a sigh of relief at seeing one of his teachers. "We got separated from Bakugo when we got sent through that portal.”
Ectoplasm pulled out a device and it started to beep. “He is not far from here I will have a few clones go get him.” A few more clones appeared and ran off in the direction of the beacon. “We are tracking his Student I.D. Card. That is why we have you all carry on you persons all the time to find you in an emergency.
"That's good to know," Hitoshi said walking towards the teacher. he was amazed to see how effective Hound Dog was taking down the last few villains with Ectoplasm's clone as support. "Can we go now?"
Tetsutetsu moved over to the teacher as Hound Dogs phone started ringing. “Hello, Yeah Call Nezu I will stay and get the students out of here.” He hung up the phone and looked to face the students. “That was Ectoplasm, he found your classmate He is taking him out to get Medical help. I need you all to follow me out of here.” He started walking to the exit.
The 4 remaining students nodded and followed their teacher as he led them out of the zone.
Boom.
A humongous bird-like creature stood over the USJ as spikes were growing out of its body.
Hitoshi let out a sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. “You know what I am officially over this day.” He looked over at his classmates.
Kirishima and Tetsutetsu jaws dropped at the sheer size of that thing.
Melissa was wondering what would cause something to grow that large and was wondering if it was a quirk. ‘Please let Uncle Might get here.’ She thought to herself as various types of creatures appeared out of nowhere to surround them.
Hound Dog let out a growl as moved to protect his students. “Stay together and we can take these things down.
“Right!” The students called out preparing to fight again.
Orbs of colorful light flew around them flashing various colors as they stopped in front of Hound Dog and the four students. Each of them heard something calling out to them as they reached out to touch them.
Hound Dog held a device in his hand just blinked for a moment. “Huh.” He looked over to see the students doing the same to the devices on their wrists.
"She looked over her Morpher and smiled. “I am ready to go home.” She told her classmates. “Let’s take these things out and call it a day.”
“Amen,” Hitoshi said letting the information filling his mind guide him.
“Let’s do it!” Kirishima and Tetsutetsu said together.
Hound nodded his head. “Let’s do it then.”
"Lightspeed Rescue!" Kirishima called out. "Red Ranger, Rescue ready!"
"Titanium Power!" Tetsutetsu called out. "Titanium Ranger, Rescue ready!"
"RPM! Get In Gear!" Hitoshi called out. “RPM Ranger Black!"
“SPD EMERGENCY!” Hound Dog called out. “SPD Shadow Ranger!”
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha!" Melissa called out. “Blue Dino Ranger!"
Hound Dog grabbed the sword from his belt and looked it over. “Been a few years, but a think I can knock some of the rust loose.” He took a ready stance. He moved in quick precise movements as he cut down one enemy to the next.
Kirishima summoned his V-Lance in Lance Mode. He followed his teacher's lead, but with less grace. He took down several of them
Tetsutetsu brought out his Titanium Laser and switched it to Axe mode. He was moving towards Kirishima's left side. "On your left." He told his red-haired companion as took down a bird-looking thing that was about to get behind him.
"Thanks," Kirishima said before moving forward.
Tetsutetsu nodded his head. “Anytime.”
Hitoshi was a black blur as he sped around the field with his Nitro Blaster in hand. He blasted them one by one before skidding to a halt. "That was a rush.” He said after took off again to back up his classmates.
A pair, of creatures, attempted to attack Kirishima and Tetsutetsu from behind when their massive blades met a blue shield. "Not on my watch," Melissa told them as she shoved them back sending them to the ground. Melissa stood to her full height holding her Tricera Shield with its spike ready to go.
As the second wave of creatures arrived they never stood a chance as the 5 of them got into a pattern that took the enemy down as fast as they could
Izuku and the others had been able to dodge most of Scorpina's long-range attacks. She had kept them from being able to get in close to fight her. They were becoming annoyed with her hit-and-run tactics. Izuku was about to change forms when a blur of purple landed an elbow to her face sending her flying to the ground. “Izuku are you and the others ok?” The Ranger asked.
“Izuku smiled “I appreciate the assistance Eraserhead.” He gave his teacher a thumbs up. “You look good in purple.”
Miruko, Mandalay, and Izuku moved towards the downed Scorpina growled as she stood up and moved back as she was facing off against 4 Rangers. "One more Ranger won't change how this battle will end." She sneered at the rangers as she jabbed the base of her staff in the ground causing 3 additional versions of herself to appear. “A little way to even the odds.” All four of them said together.
Each version attacked a different ranger. Izuku was sure he was fighting the real Scorpina as the copies have a blank look on their faces. Izuku and Scorpina had been deflecting each other's attacks. Izuku was about to send another wave of fire towards her when a Roar filled the air above him. Both Scorpina and Izuku looked up to see a large red Dragon flying towards them. Izuku was amazed to see him back to his full size.
‘Move back Izuku.’ Fire heart told him in his mind. He drew his head back sent out several bursts of blue flames.
Izuku jumped out of the way as the bursts of flames hit Scorpina from all sides sending her flying back to the ground.
Izuku rushed over as the red dragon landed near him. “Fire Heart how is this possible?” He asked knowing he had not had enough time to regain his full power.
'Time is short Izuku. I can not hold this form for long, But I am here at Eri's request.' Fire Heart said quickly. ‘We need to become one.’
Izuku nodded at the dragon. "Fire Heart! Red Dragon Fire Ranger!" Izuku flipped backward and landed on Fire Hearts back as the red dragon lets out a tremendous roar. Fire Heart took off into the air as the Fierce Dragon Morpher appears in Izuku’s hand. He pulls the handle and in a flash of red light as the two merged together. Izuku dropped to the ground with ease.
Izuku stood tall in red samurai-looking armor with a dragon motif. In each hand, he held a club-like weapon one with a dragon's head and the other was a solid blue. "Run while you can Scorpina, For I am the Light!"
Scorpina rose to her feet and took a step back as she could feel the power radiating off him. It was made her sweat as she was not sure if she could win against him. This was not was she was expecting when she came here today. She expected to fight the rangers and thought that since they were still new to their powers would be easier to destroy them. “I will not lose to you.” She sent a beam of yellow energy from her helmet towards him.
Izuku raised his blue club sending a beam of red energy to negate her attack. He jumped forward as a pair of wings appeared on his back. He flew forward and landed a kick to her chest. "It's over Scorpina. Surrender."
Scorpina stood tall as she summoned her sword to her free hand. “It’s just getting started Ranger!” She snarled as she rushed forward swinging her staff and sword at him. Izuku blocked her staff with his blue club and disarmed her by twirling her sword out of her hand. He then jabbed his dragon head club into his stomach causing a small explosion. She recovered in the air and landed a bit shaky on her feet as she glared at him, her eyes burning yellow with rage. “I will burn this whole place to the ground!” She screamed as she tossed another growth bomb at the severed arm of the Nomu.
Boom.
Another massive Nomu rose from the smoke. Its skin was a gray color and it lacked the spiked on the other. It started to lumber over to Ryukyu and Mei.
Izuku tapped the side of his helmet. “Alpha who has the most Megazord training at the moment?”
“Ochako has 1st, followed by Momo in 2nd and Yu in 3rd.” He responded after a moment. “Yu was also selected Red Zeo Ranger.” Alpha informed him.
“Copy that. Can you put me in contact with each of them and prepare their Zords?” Izuku said as he flew upward and dropped down swinging both of his clubs. Scorpina blocked his attack and dropped to a knee for the force of his attack.
“Affirmative Izuku.”
Ochako had dropped another Cog with her blaster when she heard her comlink beep. “Yeah?’ She asked as she kicked a putty in the face.
"Ochako, I need you to summon you Megazord and help Ryukyu and Mei. Scorpina made a second one. They need help." Izuku told her between grunts. “I’m a bit busy at the moment.”
"On it Izuku," Ochako said looking over to Setsuna. "I need you to take over for me here Setsuna. I need to help the others."
“Go, we got these things.” She said taking down a few Quantrons before giving her a thumbs up.
Ochako nodded to her friend and tapped her helmet. “Alpha, I need the Astro Megazord Online.”
“It is in route Ochako, Standby.”
"Thank you, Alpha." Ochako smiled as her Megazord flew into the USJ. She teleported into the cockpit taking the center seat. "Astro Megazord Online." She summoned her sword and shield. She looked over as another Zord moved beside her.
Mt. Lady watched as Ochako vanished into her Zord and heard her comlink chirp. "Go for Mt. Lady."
“It's Izuku, Congratz on becoming a Ranger. I told you it would happen someday,” He paused for a moment a grunted. “I need you to summon your Red Battlezord to help you Ryukyu and Mei. Alpha is standing by to assist you.”
“Are you sure I am ready? I can just grow right?” Mt. Lady asked as she kicked a Piranhatron sending it flying into a putty.
“Not sure yet,” He paused for a moment. “Zeo Crystals can be a bit tricky. Call your Zord. Mei and I modified it a while back. It will be on manual control fornow. I have faith in you.”
Mt. Lady smiled at her brother's words. "Thank you," She looked over at Thirteen. "I am going to back up the students. Are you good her Thirteen?”
Thirteen was a blur of movement as she switched her weapon between sword and blaster mode. "We'll hold down the fort here go."
Mt Lady tapped her helmet. “Alpha, I need the Red Battlezord please.” She was not sure how to ask for her Zord.
"It will arrive in just a moment," Alpha replied.
She smiled as her Zord arrived. She was teleported into the cockpit and inserted Zeonizer Crystal in the console. “Red BattleZord online.” She moved forward and punched the First giant Nomu. “Hey Ryukyu, I’m here to help.”
Momo had deflected an attack from a Cog when her comlink alerted her. She took out a Tenga before she tapped her helmet. “This is Momo.”
Momo, I need you to summon your Megazord to help Ochako, Ryukyu, and Mei fight. There is a second massive Nomu and They will need the backup."
Momo looked over to Kyoka and the Others. “Can you guys handle this? I need to help Mei and the others with another giant Nomu.
"Go," Nemuri said as she performed a spin attack taking down 4 different creatures in one attack. "We can handle the small fries."
Momo nodded. “Alpha, I need the Samurai Megazord online please.”
“Affirmative Momo, Teleporting now.”
"Thank you, Alpha." She said as her Megazord was teleported in. She teleported into her cockpit changed into her Mega Mode and inserted her sword into the console. "Samurai Megazord Online." She moved her over to stand by Ochako's Megazord. Momo summoned her shield as she drew her sword preparing to battle the gray Nomu.
(Power Rangers Rock OST)
Ryukyu and Mei were a bit surprised to see the additional Megazords join the fray. “Well I this will even up the odds a bit. We should have enough firepower now." Ryukyu said as she watched Mt. Lady move her Zord next to them. "Mt. Lady, can you keep that thing busy while Mei and I dock with the Dragonzord?" She wanted to make sure she was able to for the Mega Dragonzord.
“You got it Ryukyu.” Mt. Lady replied as she moved her Red Battlezord Forward. The Nomu swung its arm at her as she moved forward. She blocked with the left arm and punched its face with the right. The Nomu took a step back as Mt. Lady kept up the pressure. Punched it again and again. She even worked in a few kicks as she kept up the attack. She was able to block its attacks as she continued to punch it. She also fired off her Gatling guns to add to the damage. “How are you doing Ryukyu?”
“Docking is almost complete. Thanks for the help.”
“My Pleasure!” Mt. Lady Replies as lands a few more punches.
Mei's hands flew over her console as they complete docking with the Dragonzord. "Docking complete Ryukyu. Generators are synced." She called out at the power output lit across her console.
“Ryukyu, It’s Momo I have an Idea.”
Ryukyu moved the Mega Dragonzord into position. “I’m all ears Momo.”
Ochako brought down her Astro Saber across the second Nomu's chest as she raised her shield to block his attack. She moved the Astro Megazord a step back and adjusted her Zord to make another attack across its stomach. The Nomu let out a growl as it tried to rush toward her Zord when it was attacked from its blind side by the Samurai Megazord. "Thanks’ Momo," Ochako calls out as she lands another blow against the Nomu.
“My pleasure Ochako," Momo replies as she continues to assist her in the fight with Nomu. She was able to land her blows against its back and noticed that this one was not healing as fast as the first one. “Ryukyu, It’s Momo I have an Idea.” She hoped that it would work.
“I’m all ears Momo.”
“We can take them both out in one blow. We combine our final attacks and leave nothing for it to regenerate." Momo charged forward throwing the Samurai Megazord shoulder into the Nomu sending it falling in front of the other Nomu.
"Sounds like a plan," Ryukyu replies as she starts charging up her attack.
"Copy that, Ochako, Mt. Lady follow my lead," Momo tells her fellow Rangers.
“Right!” Ochako replies quickly as she moves her Zord closer.
“Let’s Do it!” Mt. Lady says as she levels the Battlezords gauntlets at the Nomu’s.
“Astro Saber Energize!” Ochako Calls out as she brings her sword down on the two Nomu’s
“Samurai Megazord, Final Strike!” Momo Calls out as she brings her attack down as well.
"Red Battlezord Full Power!' Mt. Lady cries out as she opens fire. The arms of the Battlezord moved back and forth like a pair of pistons as shots poured out of its gauntlets.
“Mega Dragonzord Full Power!” Mei and Ryukyu cry out as they send the green sphere slammed into the Nomu’s.
The Nomus were hit by the 4 Megazords final attacks causing them both to explode leaving nothing behind.
“Nice job Rangers!” Ryukyu says to all of them as she leans back against her chair. She looks over to see Mei cheering excitedly.
“Rangers 2, Nomu’s 0," Ochako says as she fist pumps the air.
Momo let out a breath. “Nice Job everyone.”
Mt. Lady was cheering loudly. “That was amazing!”
They all move their Zords arms into a victory pose.
Shouta and Mandalay were fighting back to back each fighter their own clones of Scorpina. They were able to keep from taking too many hits from the clones as their movements were a bit sluggish and clunky at times. They managed to toss the clones together and finished them off with an enhanced attack from Mandalay's staff and Shouta's knee. They looked over to see Miruko had already taken care of her clone and was working her way through the remaining minions.
Shouta was about to assist Izuku when he commlink beeped. “This is Eraser.” He said as he tapped his helmet.
"Shouta, its' Nezu, I need you to head to the control room for the USJ. There is a villain that is broadcasting the entire thing."
Shouta froze where he stood. “How long have they been broadcasting?” He asked looking over in the direction of the stairwell he need.
“Since the beginning. I need you to head there now.”
“On it boss,” Shouta said tapping Mandalay’s shoulder. Follow me we have another job to do.”
Mandalay nodded at him. “Lead the way.”
They made it to the stairwell quickly. They were heading up the steps to or three steps at a time. When they reached the floor with the controls they moved slowly looking for traps. They reached the door. Shouta took the left side of the door and Mandalay took the right. He slowly turned to see the door was unlocked.
‘We go in on three?’ Mandalay asked him with her quirk. After getting a positive nod from Shouta, she gave him a thumbs up.
Shouta counted down with his fingers from 3 to 0 and then rushed into the room. They found a manic-looking man in filthy clothing sitting in a chair at the main console laughing at the screen as if it was a comedy show. He was so wrapped up with the screens that he was surprised when Shouta spun him around and lifted him in the air.
“Who are you?” Shouta asked in a low growl. He was not in a mood for games.
The man was grinning ear to ear. “The name is Haywire and this was all my doing.” He gestured to the screens behind him. “I was hoping for more injured or dead students, but this will do nicely.” He started laughing even more. “Everyone will know my name!” He was becoming hysterical. “My art will finally be appreciated.”
"Turn off the feed." Shouta tightened his grip slightly. He was having to count backward in his head to keep from strangling the man.
Haywire just smirked at him. “I have control of the system for another 17 minutes. Until then, everyone can enjoy the show.” He had a smug look on his face.
Mandalay placed a hand on Shouta’s shoulder. “Let just cuff him and get him out of here.” She tilted her head through the door. “He’s not worth it.”
Shouta lowered the man slightly. "I guess you are right." They kept extra cuffs around just in case a student got out of control or they lost control of their Quirk. They slapped a pair of suppression cuffs on Haywires wrists and smiled as Haywire started to freak out.
"NO! GIVE IT BACK GIVE IT BACK!" He screamed as he lost connection with the console.
Mandalay walked over and turned off the console stopping the feed from being sent out of the USJ. They dragged the man down the stairs with minimal effort. Haywire screamed the entire time.
(Mystic Force OST)
“NO!” Scorpina cried out as her massive creatures were destroyed. She was dumbfounded to see these children were able to defeat her monsters and minions. The plan had been simple to keep the Rangers they knew about busy as the villains killed the students and She was supposed to help the Nomu kill All Might. It had all gone so horribly wrong. She turned to let out a primal roar as she rushed to fight this infuriating Ranger that was fighting her on even footing.
Izuku batted away her staff with one of his clubs easily as she was letting her anger get the best of her. He struck his left side with the Dragonhead Club and stumbled back from the blow. “Your monstersare gone. Your minions are starting to dwindle away.” He pointed the blue club in her direction. “Face it Scorpina, you’ve lost.”
“I WILL not lose to a child!” She roared as she started to charge up for one last attack.
Izuku could feel the amount of magic starting to gather and decided to finish this now. He charged up his own final attack. Both of his clubs started to hover above his hands. Both were glowing green with power. “Red Dragon Fire Ranger: Dragons Barrage!” His clubs rushed towards her hitting her repeatedly from all directions. She tried to fight them off, but could not keep up as they moved faster and faster. Both clubs few away and then turned to her chest at the same time causing a large explosion.
Izuku caught his clubs with ease and rested them on his shoulders. He let out a groan as he dropped to a knee. He felt drained. He noticed that he had reverted back to his Mystic Red form. Fire Heart was sitting in front of him on the ground.
‘I am sorry Izuku,’ Fire Heart said weakly. 'I was holding out as long as possible, but since I was short on power I had to borrow from your reserves. We are both almost out of energy. I will return to Eri and rest. One day I will be able to fight longer.'
Izuku reached over to pet the dragon on his head. “Thank you for the help, go rest.” Izuku gave him a thumbs up. “You earned it.”
Fire Heart nodded his head and disappeared in a flash of red light.
Fire Heart appeared in Eri's arm and nuzzled into the girl. Within a few seconds, he was sound asleep.
Izuku looked over to the burning crater to see Scorpina was dragging herself out. “You are very stubborn Scorpina, I will give you that.” He called out to her. He was feeling the drain. He was sure he had one more change left in him before we would need to rest.
Scorpina had gotten to a knee. “You look like you are about to kill over yourself Ranger.” She wiped the blood from her lips as she held her left arm again her torso.
Izuku stood on shaky feet. “I can do this all day.” He was feeling a bit unsteady on his feet. He knew he was pushing it. He gripped his sword as tight as he could.
Miruko was at his side in a flash. “I gotcha little brother.” She placed a hand on his back to keep him steady as Scorpina was in no shape to continue his fight.
"Thanks, sis." Izuku breathed.
Izuku watch as Shigaraki rushed desperately to try and grab All Might from behind in all the confusion to disintegrate him with his quirk. All Might was fighting several of Tenga Warriors covered in purple goo. Izuku changed into the Red SPD Ranger and forgot that Safety mode was still disabled from his fight with Scorpina.
Izuku fired off 4 shots from his blasters in rapid succession. The first shot removed his pinkie on his right hand at the base of the hand. His second shot removed his left ring finger at the second knuckle. His third shot grazed his left knee causing him to turn slightly away from her as he fell forward. His last show missed his mark on the right knee. Since Shigaraki fell forward his last shot hit him dead center to his groin.
Every male that had been watching the USJ across Japan winced in sympathy as Shigaraki hit the ground with a gurgling scream of rage and immense pain as he was clutching his groin as smoke was still rising off the charred spot.
“Nice shot.” Miruko joked as she watched the guys screaming into the ground.
"Oops," Izuku said his armsfalling to his sideswith exhaustion. He felt kind of bad for hitting him in the family jewels, but it was to protect All Might and it wasn’t like he did it on purpose. Izuku was exhausted as the adrenaline started to fade and sure he at least had some cracked ribs at a minimum from All Might punch and quite possibly a concussion. He looked over to see the last of the minions were being taken down by Students, Rangers, and Pro Heroes alike. It had been a total sweep when DECA teleported in their backup.
Izuku lowered himself toa knee on the ground as pain washed over him. He felt himself demorph as he started breathing heavily. Miruko was move closer to him to check up on him.
“Are you ok?” Miruko asked concerned.
Izuku gave her a slow nod. "Yeah, just feeling tired." He suppressed a groan as his ribs started to ache.
Shigaraki managed to get to his feet on wobbly legs and want to kill the green/red bastard. He was unable to use his quirk due to his missing fingers, but the boy was on the kneeling almost defenseless and Shigarakidecided to strangle him in revenge for his balls. He rushed towards the bastard and was just about to reach out for him whenpink and white boots connected with his face sending himflipping backward near Kurogiri. He screamed out as he hit the ground. He looked up and glared at the interlopers.
Izuku and Miruko looked to see a Pink and White Ranger land in front of them.
“Get away from him you Bitch.” Mina said standing in front of Izuku. Her cape was billowing slightly. Mina leveled her staff at the pale man ready to unleash her fury.
Toru readied her weapon for a fight. “You won’t get any closer to him.” She created several yellow energy arrows around her blade. “Your move Hand job.” The arrows were all aimed at his chest.
“Nice entrance girls," Miruko told them as he looked at the villain laying on the ground. “You need a bit more power behind those kicks thought.” She relaxed her muscles. She had been a moment away from leveling a kick at the asshole's head before the girls took him down.
Kurogiri lifted the injured Tomura over his shoulders as he looked around to see Pro Heroes and Rangers were starting to surround them. He knew they had lost the battle. "I believe it is time for us to retreat." He quickly opened a portal and pulled Tomura and himself through it as Rangers and Heroes dashed forward to catch them. The portal closed before anyone could reach them. Scorpina glared at them as she vanished like a mirage in the desert.
Izuku let out a sigh of relief. "Well, this has been an interesting day." He said trying to rise to a standing position again. Both Mina and Toru both placed a gentle hand on his chest and pushed him to sit down. “I need to go check on everyone.”
"Take it, easy little brother," Miruko said crossing her arms at him. "You earned a bit of break." She could tell he was exhausted.
"Nuh-uh," Mina said shaking her head. "You are going to stay like that until the medic takes a look at you."
“I am fine girls.” Izuku tries to protest, but the three of themwere not going to hear of it.
Toru jabbed his chest with a finger. “You will stay put or I will tell your mother that you are ignoring your injuries.”
“You wouldn’t dare.” Izuku tried to argue back weakly.
“Try me.” Toru shot back glaring under her helmet.
Mina tapped him gently on the forehead. “I will be right beside her telling your Mom all about itin vivid details.”
“Izuku will you stay put and let us help you for change," Ochako begged in his ear.
“Ochako is right. You earned a rest we go this.” Momo replied gently.
"Izzy, just rest please," Kyoka said in a gentle tone. “The Pros are here and we have everything under control with them.”
“Zuzu I promise we got this please just let them check you out," Mei said her tone almost pleading.
“Dude don’t make me tell Raphtalia and Eri on you being stubborn. Raphtalia will guilt you into it and I am sure Eri would cry if she heard you got hurt.” Setsuna threatened him
Izuku groaned. “That is such a low blow Setsuna.” He knew they were right and that he was not going to win this argument.
“Crude but very effective Izuku," Pony added with a bit of a giggle. “Seriously just rest. I am heading that way now with Kyoka.”
Izuku bowed his head in defeat and closed his eyes. “Alright, I can tell when I am outnumbered. I will just rest here for now.” He tried to take slow breaths to calm the pain.
“Good Boy/Good Boy.” His girlfriend’s said together.
Miruko started laughing at her brother. “You’re learning Izuku, never argue with women. We always win."
Izuku groaned as his sister. He was not looking forward to his mother seeing him like this. He was sure she was going to check every inch of him for injuries and mother him until she was satisfied that he was alright.
As the area was secured by police and the staff, the medical teams began to swarm into the building with police escorts. Izuku was being looked over by a Medic. They were loading a frowning Vlad onto a cot with his arm in a sling to take him to the Mass Casualty Depot to be checked out. He had refused to leave until he knew his students were all accounted for. The students were being moved outside of the entrance for accountability and to be checked out for injuries. Most of the students were treated for minor injuries and were going to be loaded onto a bus taking them to the Depot. Bakugo and Manga had been injured in the attack. Both were unconscious and had been teleported out for immediate medical evaluation and treatment.
“Alright Kid, you get to ride the stretcher out of here. You have several possible broken or cracked ribs and I think you might have a concussion.” The Medic said pointing to the medical stretcher next to him. “I want to get you hooked up to a few monitors in the Ambulance.” The medic placed his stethoscope back around his neck.
Izuku slowly sat up with the help of Mina and Toru still in their Ranger forms. “I can walk to the bus with the other students.” He didn’t want anyone to worry if they put him on the cot. He felt a hand on each shoulder and looked to see Mina, Toru, Miruko leaning in towards him. He could only see his own reflection in their helmet visors, but he was sure that all three of them were sending him a stern glare. “The Stretcher it is then.” He said quickly as they ‘assisted’ him over to the stretcher and let the medical team strap him in and cover him with a blanket. Mina and Toru fell in step behind him as they started wheeling him out. Miruko followed the stretcher from behind.
Up in the rafter on a maintenance walkway lay a sniper adjusting his scope. He watched as his target was being wheeled out of the USJ on a stretcher. He had made that deal with the suit for his freedom. He broke out the day before while on his way to a special court hearing and made his way to the safe house that had been provided for him. Inside there was hot food, his gear, and his sniper rifle. After a hot shower and real food, he was ready to do the job. He met up with the villain that was in charge of the job and got inside the USJ with no problem. He broke off from the group immediately and moved towards the shadows as he found the nest he was looking for. He was far enough away to allow him to escape after he took his shot. He has several escape routes available to him. His quirk Marksman had helped give him a reputation as one of the best snipers. He was not even close to someone in skill like Lady Nagant, but he was able to get the job done for the right price. He got busted a few years back by Miruko after he botched a job trying to take out a witness. He had been sitting in a hole waiting for someone to be desperate into getting him out of prison.
He held his breath as he started to slowly squeeze the trigger. Soon people would know Reaper was back in the game and he would be a couple million dollars richer for taking out one kid.
Bam.
Screams of commands and panic filled the air.
In a luxury hotel room in Tokyo a man was sitting at his computer watching everything that was going on at the USJ. He had started recording it as soon as it started streaming. He reached out to his handlers back in the states. This was something the President would want to hear about immediately.

I am a huge Marvel fan i wanted to build it like the MCU where they all connected and can have their own arcs and character development, along with letting characters crossover.

Chapter Text
"Power Down," Miruko said as she stretched her ears. She wanted to get her brother checked out and then go check on the girls. They were almost to the door when she heard multiple shots. She looked over toward her brother as a hole appeared in the cot near the head.
"IZUKU!" A trio called out as they rushed forward to find the bullet that passed through the cot mere inches from his face. Izuku let out a hiss as he felt something warm run down his right cheek. The Medic nearest him immediately started to check him over for other injuries. Miruko saw movement on the catwalk above her. “You two keep Izuku and the medics safe. I am going after the shooter."
“Go! We got our boy." Mina said as she looked over to see the medics had already started to treat her boyfriend. She clenched her staff tight in her hand as she kept an eye out for anyone else trying to get to Izuku.
Toru was hovering nearby as she held his hand. “Are you ok, Izuku?” She whispered as he gripped her hand tightly.
“Y-yeah,” Izuku replied as felt his adrenaline spike. “That was a close call Toru.” He said as the medics pressed several gauze against his cheek. He turned to look at the bullet hole in the stretcher near his head.
Miruko was gone in a blur of movement. She spotted All Might and a Ranger in black and gold already up there. She wanted to chat with this ranger and thank them and maybe get to ‘talk’ with the shooter alone for a few minutes.
Lady Nagant had looked over the schematics of the USJ and had requested she had been teleported to a catwalk that gave her the best visibility. She had looked down to see the giant creatures fighting with several massive machines and She got in position and extended her rifle from her arm.
She started to hunt for the sniper. She was slowly sweeping all the best spots when she spotted them on another catwalk. She looked to adjust her scope and She spotted that the sniper was squeezing the trigger. She aimed and fired a moment before their shot. She frowned as she merely knocked the bullet off course sending it to hit near Izuku’s head. “Shit.” She swore as she fired two more shots in rapid succession. The second shot shattered their rifle and her third shot hit them in the shoulder. Nezu had ordered her to bring anyone in like him alive for him to interrogate. She almost felt sorry for them. Almost.
"Not bad after 11 years of sitting that godforsaken hell hole." Lady Nagant muttered as she pulled out her phone. When she heard someone pick up the other side. "You were right. I wounded one."
“Excellent I will have someone retrieve them. I am returning you to my office.”
Lady Nagant collapsed her rifle as she stood up. She looked down and smiled at Izuku. "We'll see each other again real soon my little green bunny." She waited as she was teleported away. She arrived back in Nezu's office and get comfortable in a chair. She pulled out an old picture from her pocket. The picture was of her at 24 years old standing next to her friend Inko and a 3-year-old Izuku was wrapped around her right leg. She was looking forward to seeing them again.
Reaper winced as the bullet struck his rifle shattered it. He was still holding on to the rifle stock when the next shot hit him in the shoulder causing him to cry out in pain. His fingers went numb causing him to drop the remains of his rifle from the catwalk. He was about to make a break for it when he was yanked to his feet by his collar. He was faced with someone in a black helmet and gold chest armor. The symbol for King is outlined in gold on the helmet. He noticed that he was being held in the air with one hand while the other one held a gold and black staff with a matching symbol. "You caught me." He said quickly. "You can't hurt me now that I am in your custody and I am already injured.” He gestured to his shoulder with his good arm.
The individual on gold and black remained unmoved. “I’m not taking you into custody.” They figured told him. Their voice was modulated making it difficult to determine age or gender. “I am just holding you here.”
Reaper looked around. “Holding me here for what?” He asked trying to break free from their grip, but it was like trying to move welded steel.
“I AM HERE.” All Might said as he lands on the catwalk covered in purple ooze. His eyes were brimming with anger and he was not smiling. “I believe you have something of mine Ranger.” He recognized the style suits that Izuku and the others wore.
The Ranger handed him over to All Might. “He’s all yours.” The Ranger said as they turned to walk away.
“Wait who are you?” All Might asked trying to get a clue to the person’s identity.
The Ranger turned back towards him. "A Friend." Then in a blur of black and gold light, they were gone.
All Might looked at the sniper and held him tight as he dropped to the ground. Several officers swarmed forward to take the man into custody. He looked to Miruko stalking towards the man in her Hero Suit. Her ears were flat as her face was full of fury. “This won’t end well.” All Might grumbled as he moved to intercept her.
Miruko was on a warpath after she watch All Might drop down with someone. She was getting close to where they were holding him when All Might stepped in front of her. “Move All Might.” She snarled as she was not afraid to go through him or try to at least.
“I can’t do that until you calm down Miruko.” All Might said crossing his arms against his chest. He was trying to end this without having to fight her. He was sure it would be a knock-down-drag-out fight if he was forced to stop her.
Miruko stepped close to the pro despite being shorter than him. “I just want five minutes with him alone." She looked over to see the man was moving as far from her as possible.
“Not going to happen.” All Might said standing his ground against the Heroine. "Stand Down Miruko."
Before it could escalate Ryukyu back in her normal form rushed over. “Miruko, Izuku is asking for you.”
Miruko turned away from All Might. “I’ll be back.” She called back as she followed Ryukyu back over to their brother.
Reaper let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you for saving me All Might." He said relaxing slightly.
All Might glared at the man causing him to shrink back. “I didn’t do it for you dirtbag.” All Might moved closer to tower of the man. “I did it to prevent a promising Heroine from throwing their life away over a nobody.” His eyes were glowing with anger. "I am tempted to call her back and let her have those five minutes. Don't push it."
Reaper sat there quietly until he was questioned by Detective Naomasa.
Miruko moved over as the Medics were working on Izuku. They had placed a bandage on his face as the Medics were double-checking him for Mina and Toru were still in their Ranger form standing guard as she had instructed them. Both were glancing at Izuku their body language showing how anxious they were. "Good job girls.” She said gently. She patted each of them on the shoulder. Ryukyu moved and pulled the girls close to her in a hug.
“How is he?” Miruko asked the Medics as she tried to stay out of their way.
One of the medics was applying more gauze to his bleeding cheek “May need a few stitches on his cheek, but nothing new, just his ribs and possible concussion from before.”
Miruko nodded. “Copy that.” She tapped her commlink. “Nezu, we are loading Izuku into an ambulance now. Can you notify Inko please?” She gestured for the medics to roll him out of there. “I will be riding with him to keep him safe.”
“Copy that Miruko. I will have a Medical Team awaiting your arrival.”
“Affirmative sir.” Miruko looked over at the medics. “We’re are leaving in just a moment grab what you need.” She told the medics. "Let's get going," Miruko said as she gripped her brother's hand. A moment later they were gone.
"I'm sorry for worrying you Miruko," Izuku said as he rubbed the bandage on his cheek.
Miruko moved over to ruffle his hair. “You have nothing to apologize for." She waited as they loaded him into the ambulance before climbing inside. She sat nearby still holding his hand as the Medic did his job.
Ryukyu tapped her commlink. “Alpha can you patch me into everyone please.” She asked as she continued to hug Mina and Toru close to her.
“You are patched in Ryukyu.”
Ryukyu took a breath. “Izuku has been loaded into the ambulance. He is heading to get checked out by the medical staff.” She looks over to see the medical team patching up the sniper. “Report back to the Main Entrance so we can go meet up and head to go check Izuku.”
She led Mina and Toru to the Main door. “You girls can power down and get out of those suits.”
“Power Down.” They said together reverting back to their regular forms.
Toru let out a sigh as she was still invisible. “I was hoping this would help become visible, but I guess not.” She wanted to be seen after being invisible for so long. The picture she had was nice, but it wasn’t the same.
Mina hugged her friends tightly. “Let’s talk to Izuku and Mei, maybe they can think of something or know how it works.” She hoped that they can grant Toru her one wish.
"Yeah, that sounds like a-gahhh." Toru cried out in surprise as Mina follows suit a moment later. They looked up to see the trail of a large glob of purple slime had slid down and covered them both.
"Gross," Mina whined as she tried to get it out of her hair. The more she tried the more it seemed to seep into her hair. "Noooooo, it's not coming out." She pulled her hand back to see it covered in the disgusting ooze.
“Ugh.” Toru groan as she wiped it away from her face. She looked up to see Setsuna was waiting for them outside and had watched them get covered in slime. “Don’t you dare Setsuna.” She warned her friend as Toru watched her cover her mouth with both hands.
“Setsuna snickered. “I think that purple looks good on you two." She covered her mouth to stop herself from laughing out loud. She had demorphed and had been waiting for the other girls to arrive. She couldn't help but want to laugh at Mina and Toru getting covered in that disgusting ooze. She also decided for her own safety that she would never tell them that she had been the one to kick that thing up there earlier during all the fighting. She decided discretion is the better part of valor. "You two need a shower."
“No, Really?” Mina remarked sarcastically. Then she got an idea and scooped some ooze out of her hair. “Are you thinking what I am thinking Toru?”
"Why yes, Mina. I am." Toru said mirror her friend's action of grabbing some ooze from her shoulder.
Setsuna could see the wheels turning in their minds. "Don't," She said taking a step back from them. "Hey, we can be friends about this. I'll apologize for snickering at you both." She took another step away from the ooze-covered duo. "Are we good?"
Mina and Toru rushed forward her. Ryukyu watched from a distance as the small ooze fight began. She stayed out of the line of fire, not wanting any of that gunk on her. The day had been very stressful and they needed to blow off some steam.
Ochako, Momo, Kyoka, Mei, and Pony were being escorted out by Midnight and Present Mic. The USJ was now a hive activity as officers were rounding up the defeated villains and were taking them to a central location to keep an eye on them until they could be transported to jail. They reached the door to find Ryukyu standing there laughing. They were all confused at they found Mina, Toru and Setsuna covered in purple goo. Setsuna had less on her than the other two, but it was still quite a bit.
“What happened here?” Ochako asked trying her best not to laugh or snicker at her friends.
The trio looked at one another before answering together. “Don’t ask.”
Momo cleared her throat. “I say we get on the bus so we can check on Izuku.” She started to walk towards the bus. She wanted to see him with her own eye before she could relax.
"Sounds good," Kyoka said as she clasped her hand behind her head. She was tired and wanted to see Izzy.
Mei nodded her head and followed behind them she felt someone take her hand. She turn to see Pony was guiding her to the bus. "Thank you."
“My pleasure Mei.” Pony told her as she guided her to the bus.
Ochako followed up behind them with Ryukyu, Midnight, and Mt. Lady. “How bad was he hurt?” She had been on edge after hearing he was being loaded into an ambulance.
Ryukyu patted her shoulder. “He should be fine after a session with Recovery Girl.” She led the brunette to the bus. The bus driver made Mina, Toru, and Setsuna each sit on a blanket to keep the ooze off the bus benches.
Izuku let out a groan after the doctors and nurses finished his initial assessment at the depot. They transferred him over to Recovery Girls office for further treatment. As they wheel him into a private room that had been set up like a hospital room for the injured students, he spotted his Mother waiting beside her. "Hey, Mom." He said as they wheeled towards the bed. After the medical team transferred him to the bed Inko was at his side in an instant. "I'm just a bit bang-up. My ribs are pretty sore."
Inko gave him a teary smile. “I know baby.” She said kissing his forehead. “I watched everything on TV. One of the villains was streaming the USJ to the public.” She watched as Miruko took a protective posting near the door as Recovery Girl started to look him over.
“Wait it was streamed?” Izuku asked before getting rapped gently on the forehead by Recovery Girl’s knuckles.
“Let me get you patched up first young man and then you can ask questions to your heart's content." She let out a sigh as she looked over the paperwork and ran a few additional tests to conformation her results. She moved over to stand at the bedside as she read over her report. “The medic was right you have 6 minor fractures to your ribs and a mild concussion." She set the clipboard down and looked at her patient. "Also, you have a minor laceration on your cheek." She moved over and looked at his cheek. I can heal up your ribs and concussion, but with how little energy you have left. I will have to do it in stages." She kissed his forehead making him groggy.
"Wait-I have so many- YAWN- Questions." Izuku started to mumble as he fought to stay awake. "The girls-." He trailed off as Inko ran her fingers through his hair. He was soon resting comfortably. Inko stood up and hugged Miruko.
Miruko hugged her back and let Inko cry on her shoulder. "It's ok Mom," She whispered. "He's going to be ok. Izuku is made of pretty tough stuff." She looked over at her sleeping brother and focus on the bandage on his cheek.
"I know it's just nerves," Inko said trying to get herself under control. "I still need to get Eri and Raphtalia from their classroom." She started to make a move, but Miruko held her in place.
"Let's wait here for a bit and then one of us can go get the kids," Miruko said leading her over to sit next to Izuku. "For now, we will just sit here and wait." She sat down and gently held Izuku's hand. She had almost snapped after seeing how close she had come to losing him. She didn't show certain emotions very often, but she cared for her family. they meant the world to her. She had been talking with Ryukyu about something recently and today had only solidified her decision.
All Might was looking over the damage that had been done during all the fighting today. The USJ would need quite a few repairs before it would be fully operational again. After the students had been sent to the Depot a lot of Pro Heroes arrived to help with the clean-up or guarding the Villains that were in custody. Hawks and Endeavor arrived together as they started to head towards him. "Hello, Endeavor. Hawks. Nice of you to join us.” He said with his best smile. He knew this could get tense very quickly.
Endeavor grunted as he looked around before looking at All Might's appearance. "That looks good on a fool like you All Might," He said turning back to the look around him “Seems like you have this under control. Where are the students?”
All Might's eye twitched in annoyance at his comment. "The students are being checked out by the Medical Staff at the Depot." He wish he had been able to get a shower before the other heroes had arrived. He could see Hawks was starting to snicker. “The Police are rounding up the last of the attackers from the remaining zones.”
Endeavor grumbled as he turned to walk away. “I see I wasted my time coming here. I will check on my masterpiece to see if he is damaged in any way." With that, he turned and left without another word.
Hawks looked around. “Whelp I will be heading out with the big guy. Later All Might.” Hawks stopped for a moment then pulled his phone and moved close to take a quick selfie with All Might. "Sorry, All Might," Hawks says as he laughs while typing rapidly on his phone. “I can’t pass up the chance to be a part of the Ooze Might trend.”
All Might blink. “The what now?” He asked as he felt a pit forming in his stomach. ‘Oh, dear god no.’ He thought to himself.
Hawks understood immediately. “Oh, well the USJ was streamed all across Japan. They watched you get covered in that purple ooze. Twice.” He showed All Might his picture online dubbing him as Ooze Might. “Everyone thinks it is hysterical.” Hawks hurried to catch up with Endeavor.
All Might's heart drops as he sees that picture. “Oh No.” He pulled out his phone to see several messages from Gran Torino.
Gran Torino: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA This is perfect for you ya idiot!
Gran Torino: I ordered a massive poster for my apartment!
Gran Torino: I have this as my Screensaver!!
Gran Torino: How is Melissa? I saw her on TV fighting those thugs.
All Might let out a groan as his phone started to ring. He looked and noticed it was his friend David. He moved away from everyone to take the call. “David, I was just about to call you.”
As the buses pull into the Depot the students can see their parents nearby trying to get past the police barricade to see their children. Midnight steps off the bus and headed towards them.
"Can I have your attention please?" Midnight calls out to the assembled parents. After they quieted down she cleared her throat.
“Please check in with the officers. As soon as your child has been clear by the Medical staff they will be sent inside to get changed out of their Hero suits and you will be escorted into the Auditorium where you will be reunited with your children. Principal Nezu is also waiting to talk with each of you.” After hearing the content murmuring from the parent, she gave them a bow. “Thank you. Please be patient with us. As we get this underway.”
The parents started to form lines to talk with the officers as Ryukyu, Mt. Lady, and Thirteen started to direct the students of the buses towards the medical staff. The students were evaluated and sent inside the school as quickly as possible. The parents were moved inside to the auditorium as they were matched to the student's records. The parents of the injured students were taken to their private rooms and were given reports on their conditions.
Momo hung back after she was cleared by the doctor to wait for the other girls. She wanted to go see Izuku and take a shower afterward. She waited as each of the girls came over to join her. Mina, Toru, and Setsuna to join them. They were still covered in slime, but it was not as bad as the staff had helped them clean off most of it. “Does anyone want to go get changed?” She asked them. She could tell they were all just as antsy as her to see their boyfriend.
"I'll get changed later. I want to see my parents and go see Izuku." Ochako said shifting from foot to foot.
Kyoka nodded her head. “I agree with Ochako. A shower can wait.” She started to twirl one of her jacks.
"Same," Pony added as she wanted to see him as well. “Shower can wait.”
Mei looked over herself. "I planned on taking one later anyway. Besides I want to see Zuzu too.”
"I'll wait on a shower," Setsuna said taking off her mask. She grimaced at the state of her mask hoping the support course could get the ooze stains out of her suit.
Mina messed with her hair. “Same, maybe Izuku has a room with a shower we could borrow.” She was torn between wanting to wash the gunk out of her hair and Izuku. He won out by a mile.
Toru moved over beside Mina. “I’ll pray for a shower in his room. Let’s go see our parents.”
They made their way to the auditorium to find it full of parents and students. They watched the parents hugging their classmates and were looking them over.
Ochako looked over to see Tsu being hugged by her parent and were talking with Fumikage’s parents before her father went over to talk with the Principal. She could tell by his expression that he was furious about something. She would ask her about it another day. She didn’t want to interrupt her time with her family.
Setsuna and Kyoka were trying not to laugh as they watched a blonde girl about their age run towards Hitoshi tackling him to the ground. They watched as the blonde girl latched onto him like a koala and refused to let go. When Kaminari tried to help Hitoshi up the girl turn her head and hissed at him like an angry cat. Kaminari wisely moved away apologizing to him. Eventually, they recognize Pro Heroine Ms. Joke walking over helping him back to his feet along with a girl with fawn hair wearing the same uniform as the blonde attached to Hitoshi. The blonde remain in place with her arms and legs wrapped around his chest.
Mina was looking over at her friend Kiri who was smiling as he was being looked over by his mother while his dad was chuckling at his Mom's antics. She felt her jaw drop when noticed how close Melissa was standing next to him. She then noted that they were holding hands. She grinned and planned to have a serious conversation with him later about holding out on her. She elbowed Toru who started to bounce alongside her with excitement.
Mei smiled at her friend holding hands with Kirishima. “So, I guess it wasn't just a family dinner she went to," Mei remembered working on Alpha-5 with her on Sunday she had to be there for dinner with his family.
Mina turned to face her with a Cheshire grin. “Oh really? Tell me more Mei.” She asked wanting details. ‘Kiri you are so going to spill everything to me.’ She thought to herself as planned on asking him about his relationship with Melissa in detail.
Toru elbowed her gently. “Interrogate Kiri later Mina. Here come our parents." Toru gestured with her arm.
They all turned to see their parents hurrying towards them.
Momo was quickly embraced by both of her parents. Mona kissed her daughter's cheek before she started to check her daughter for injuries. "Momo! Are you ok? Did any of these thugs hurt you honey?" She asked quickly. She had been in the middle of a meeting when they were alerted of what was going on at the USJ. She called for her Husband before they headed to UA.
Setsuna watched as her mother stopped just before hugging her looking her over. “I cleaned it off the best I could Mom.” She teased as her mother rushed forward anyway hugging her daughter.
“I am so glad you are safe my precious little Suna.” Her mother said as she repeatedly kissed her daughter's forehead.
“MOM!” Setsuna complained as she tried to get away, but her mother had in a tight embrace. She was embarrassed at being called that by her mother in public. The last time her mother hugged her this tight she had to fall to pieces to escape her mother's death grip.
Kuro was glad that her daughter was safe and was trying not to laugh at his wife’s antics. He was proud to see his daughter hold her own against these thugs. “Dear give Momo a chance to answer you before you ask your next question.”
Negi patted his wife on the back. “Honoka dear, please loosen your grip before our daughter falls to pieces to escape you again.” He smiled as his daughter gave him a thumbs up.
"Thank you, Dad," Setsuna said after taking a deep breath. "I'm ok just a little dirty Mom." She had gotten most of it off her suit but still needed a shower.
Momo hugged them both tightly. “I am glad to see you both.” She stepped back giving them both a smile. “I am a fine Mother. Nothing a hot shower won’t fix.”
Mona kissed her daughter's forehead. “Glad to hear it dear." She was still fussing over her daughter. "Why didn't you take a shower and get changed?"
Momo coughed into her hand. “I wanted to see how Izuku was before I get cleaned up.” She could feel her cheeks warming up. “He was brought here by ambulance.”
“Same here.” Setsuna chimed in. “Need to make sure Izuku is alright before I grab a shower.”
Mona smiled at her daughter. “Well let’s go check on our future son-in-law then.”
Honoka smirked. “Yes Mona, let go check on our future son-in-law. I’m looking forward to meeting him.”
“Mother!” Momo and Setsuna exclaimed together as their faces flushed red. Kuro and Negi just laughed at their wives' antics.
Ochako was scooped by her Dad and pulled into a bear hug. “Ochako!” He said excitedly. “I am so glad my baby girl is safe and sound." He told her as he kissed the top of her head.
“Dad!’ Ochako whined as tried to get loose from her dad’s powerful grip. She was embarrassed at his antics and tried to get free, but years of construction had given him a powerful grip. “Let me go!” When she got back on the ground she was immediately hugged just as tightly by her mom. “Mom! I am fine I promise.”
“I know baby. You did such an amazing job today. I am so proud of you.” Her mother said kissing her daughter's cheek. "You were such an amazing hero today the way you fought off those villains.”
Ochako smiled brightly at her parents. "Thanks, Mom. Dad." Then she stopped for a moment. “Wait how do you know that?” Ochako had a confused expression on her face.
"Well, it was streamed live honey," Ocha told her daughter. “We watched the whole thing until it went off.” Her mother sniffed and moved away slightly from her daughter. “Honey, no offense, but you need a shower.” She looked over her daughter noticed she was had not changed her clothes. “Why didn’t you get cleaned up dear?”
“Izuku was brought here by ambulance. I wanted to see him first.” Ochako said worried about her boyfriend.
I see.” Her mother said with a knowing smile. “Let’s go talk with the principal and when can check him.” She looped her arm around her daughter’s. “I look forward to meeting Izuku in person.”
“Same here.” Her father grumbled. He wanted to talk to the boy that his daughter fell for. He just wanted to talk to him.
Kyoka had heard Ochako’s mom talking about the USJ attack was basically televised. She watched as her Mother and Father came running over to her. “So how long did you guys watch the attack before you came here?” She asked gesturing towards Ochako. “Her parents said it was streamed live.”
"As soon as I saw you dear," Mika said pulling her daughter into a hug. "You were quite impressive today dear."
Kyoka smiled at her mother. "Thanks, Mom." She watched her dad wait for his turn trying to act cool and aloof. She rolled her eyes. “Come on old man, come on get it over with.” She opened her arms for a hug.
Kyotoku smirked at his daughter and gave her a big hug. “Glad to see you safe and sound kiddo.” He looked around the room. “I don’t see that boy around anywhere.” He grimaced slightly thinking about the boy that was dating his daughter. She had chased after him after he messed the porch light during their kiss.
Kyoka let out a sigh. “Izuku was brought in by ambulance we are going to go check up on him soon." She looked around. "After that, I will get changed."
“Ok dear let’s ask the principal where we need to go," Mika said pulling her daughter close. "I know you are worried about him.”
"Thanks, Mom," Kyoka said quietly leaning against her shoulder.
Mei was surprised when she was almost tackled to the ground. She had managed to catch her balance and looked to see it was her mom. "What are you doing here Mom?" Mei asked her. Her work had been extraordinarily strict about her missing any time at work and she barely had a time off she could use. “What about work? I don’t want you to get in trouble with your boss just to come to see me.”
Melina smiled at her daughter's concern. "I just watched my daughter on television fighting a giant monster and I left to come to check on her.” She hugged her daughter tightly. “Besides I quit my job at Detnerant when they told me I couldn’t leave. Long hours away from you and I hated working with their substandard materials.” She shook her head. “You are more important to me than that place. Melina smiled “As a bonus now I get to meet your Boyfriend.”
"Well as long as you are happy mom." Mei stopped when her mom's words registered with her. "Wait what do you mean you watched me?”
"Oh, you haven't been told yet," Melina replied as she pulled out her phone. "I watched it on my phone after I got an alert." She showed her a few clips she found on the internet. One of the clips was her morphing and then jumping into her Zord. “You’re a bit famous now dear.”
“I will take a look at it later. “Mei replied looked around. “I want to get out of here and check on Zuzu. He was injured at the USJ.”
"Well let's go over to your friends and see where he is at," Melina said guiding her daughter towards the principal. "Not the way I wanted to meet your Zuzu, but it will do.”
Mei rolled her eyes.
Mina and Toru watched as their mothers came over to see them. They stopped and looked over the daughters.
“What are you two covered in?” Mikoto asked as she moved closer to her daughter to get a better look at the purple goo.
Toru groaned as let her shoulders slump. "Some kind of purple ooze that fell on us as we were leaving the USJ." She looked over her gym uniform. "I got as much off as I possibly could without an actual shower.”
"It's mostly in my hair right now," Mina said trying not to reach up and touch her hair. She couldn’t wait to get it washed out.
Both mothers moved forward and carefully hugged their daughters to avoid some of the ooze.
"You two did pretty well today," Mikoto said smiling at her daughter. "Your flexibility has gotten better Mina. I was impressed with how you were moving around on your acid."
“Yeah, Toru I can see you took those lessons I taught you at the gun range to heart. Those were some pretty nice shots Toru.” Sarah said beaming with pride at her daughter.
“Wait how did you see that?” Toru asked her mother.
Sarah pulled out her phone and showed them the clip she had saved to her phone while she was waiting to see her daughter. "Some idiot decided to stream the attack on the USJ.”
Mikoto pulled her daughter close. "I am proud of you. You did an incredible job today."
"Thanks, Mom," Mina said watching a few of the clips that were playing on her aunt's phone. “Where is dad at?”
“He went to pick up the trio from school and will meet us back at home," Mikoto informed her.
Toru tapped Mina on the shoulder. “We need to go check on Izuku.”
"Well, that works out for us," Sarah said as she looked at her best friend. "We get to meet the young man you told us about the other day."
"That right," Mikoto said with a mischievous grin. "Let go talk to the Principal, then we get to meet your boy toy.”
Mina and Toru shared a look knowing this was not going to end well for them.
Pony had accepted the hugs from her Aunt and Uncle as they looked over Tetsutetsu. She had a sad smile on her face. She missed her parents terribly. She wished they could be here to hug her in person. She talked with them twice a week, but it was not the same.
She had not told her Mom that she was seeing someone. Her Mom was the definition of an Overprotective Mother when it came to any boy being around her. One time she working on a school project with a boy from her class and when her Mom came into the room and saw how close he was sitting next to her, she chased him away making threatening remarks about what she would do to his manhood. Needless to say, it was an awkward conversation the next day at school when she was given a new partner that happened to be a girl.
After that boys would avoid her like the plague.
She looked around to see families together and planned to call her Mom and talk to her for a bit. She just wanted to hear her voice after what happened today. He noticed that the other girls were moving towards the Principal. “I will see you guys at home. I want to check on my friends.” Pony told her relatives. “I am sure that I can get a ride back.”
They discussed it for a few minutes before relenting as long as she called them when she was on her way home. Pony gave them another hug before hurrying off.
Nezu had just finished up with the Kaminari Family and turned to see the large group of parents and students coming towards them. "Hello, I am sorry that we had to meet under these circumstances. I am Principal Nezu.” He gave the families a bow.
"It is nice to meet you Nezu," Sarah said giving him a nod. "We were wondering if you knew what room Izuku Midoriya was taken to?" Several of the other parents nodded their heads to that question.
“He was been taken to room 117, Lt. Hakugare. It is 4 rooms past the Nurse’s Office.” Nezu told them. “Now I have been talking with all that parents of children that have received a Morpher today. Your children are the owners of their Morphers. They are protected by the UA charter and all current laws. They cannot be forced to hand it over to any member of the HPSC.” He pulled out a business card from his pocket and handed it to each of the parents. “If you have any questions or start getting harassed by anyone please give me a call.”
"Thank you Nezu," Mona replied as she reached into her purse and pulled out a card, and handed it to him. "Please reach out to my legal team if you need any assistance in dealing with anyone harassing your students or their families.” She knew that since the attack was televised it was going to bring people out all the crazies.
"Thank you, Ms. Yaoyorozu," Nezu said as he placed the card in his pocket. “I wish you all a good evening. I look forwards to seeing my students on Monday morning for class." He gave them another bow. "If you will excuse me I can see the Kirishima family is waiting to talk to me.
Izuku slowly started to stir. He was warm and comfortable, but the light was pulling him away from sleep. He opened his eyes to see Rumi was sitting next to his bed watching something on her phone. He let out a groan as he tried to sit up. "Hey, Rumi." He said feeling the tenderness in his ribs.
Rumi heard him start to stir and put her phone away. “Easy little brother.” She said as she moved to talk with him. “Let me help you.” After she helped him sit up and made sure he was comfortable. “How are you feeling?”
Izuku gave her a slight smile. “Better. My ribs feel very tender at the moment.” She looked around her bed. “Mom need a break?” He asked leaning back on his pillow for comfort. “How long was I out?”
Rumi sat down on the edge of her bed. "You were out about an hour and Mom went to go get Eri and Raphtalia." She gave Izuku a tight hug. "I thought I lost you, little brother when I heard the gunshots."
Izuku patted her on the back. "I thought so for a moment there to Rumi."
"I need you to stick around for a while my little Green Bunny," Rumi said as she ruffled his hair. She noticed a strange look on his face. “What? Don’t like that name?”
Izuku shook his head. "No, it's fine Rumi. I had an old babysitter that used to call me that." Izuku seemed to drift back to an old memory. "Just no one else has called me that in a long time. Until my girlfriends and you that is.” He came back to the present. “Thanks for sitting with me Rumi.”
Rumi gave him a big smile. “We bunnies need to look after each other.” They stayed like that until the door of his room opened followed by the sound of running feet and twin shouts of excitement.
"Papa/Papa!" Raphtalia and Eri said as they jumped onto the bed and latched onto his chest. They both started to talk to him at the same time. Inko was standing nearby smiling at them with tears in her eyes. Fire Heart flutter his wings and landed on the foot of his bed.
"Slow down, slow down girls," Izuku said suppressing a wince as they pressed against his ribs. “I’m Ok girls.” He hugged them tightly. “I know you both were worried, but you need to settle down a bit ok?”
"Ok, Papa," Raphtalia said pressing her face into his chest.
"OK, Papa," Eri said mirroring her actions.
Izuku went still as he looked at Eri. “Wait Eri did you just call me Papa?” He watched her nod her head against his chest. "Well, it looks like Raphtalia got her wish then." He chuckled as Eri looked up with a big smile. "Now I have two adorable daughters." He said as Eri's eyes started to shine as she hugged him a bit tighter and her sister started to cheer as she turned back to smile at Inko.
“Grandma! I got my sister!” Raphtalia said excitedly as started to do a little dance of excitement. Before hugging her sister and Papa.
"I can see that dear," Inko said as she watched her granddaughters talking excitedly to her son. We watched as Rumi started to move away from them to stand next to her. "Thank you for sitting with him while I went to get the girls.”
"My pleasure Mom." Rumi couldn't help but smile at the sight in front of her. "The others are going to flip when they hear about it." She laughed thinking of her sister's reactions to Eri calling their brother Papa.
“Of that, I have now doubt dear.” Inko chuckled. “He looks better.”
“He feels better. He says his ribs are tender.” Rumi told her as she watched him wince slightly. “We may have to go save him from them before too long.”
"Well give them another minute before we pry them off of him," Inko told her. "They were really worried about him.” She could remember the scared look on their faces when she came to get them from their classroom. Both of them were on the verge of tears when she walked into the room. Inko thank their teacher for comforting them before she brought them directly to his room.
Rumi's ear tilted a little and smiled. "Well, we are about to have a lot of company in a moment." She gestured to the door.
The Girls walked through the door with their parents to the sight of Izuku being hugged by Eri and Raphtalia. The girls and their mothers could not resist cooing at the adorable sight. This got the attention of the trio. "Hey everyone," Izuku said with a small wave. "Glad to see you guys are ok." He smiled at them as he was suddenly mobbed by his girlfriends. He winced as they accidentally pressed his daughters into his ribs. "Tender Ribs!" He called out to get them to move back slightly. Eri and Raphtalia were sitting on each side of him.
Ochako grabbed both sides of his face and pulled him into a passionate kiss. "I am glad you are doing alright Izuku." She smiled at him as she caressed his face. "You owe me a date for making me worry." She placed a kiss on his forehead. She looked over to see Raphtalia was trying to get her attention. "Yes?" Ochako asked her."
"I got my sister! Eri started calling him Papa too!" Raphtalia said excitedly. Her tail was a blur of motion.
Ochako hugged Eri and kissed the top of her head. "I am happy for you Eri."
Eri buried her head into Ochako's shoulder. "Thanks, Mama." She said looking up at her.
Ochako felt her heart soar as she smiled brightly. "Thanks, Eri." She heard the sound of clicking coming from behind her. She turned around to see her Mom grinning at her with her phone in her hand as she was walking towards her while dragging her Dad who frowning at Izuku. "Well, my parents want to meet you.”
"Hello, Izuku. My name is Ocha.” She gave him a quick hug. “My daughter had told me a lot about you.”
“Nice to meet you, Ma'am," Izuku replied looking to see the similarities between mother and daughter. "Hopefully nothing too embarrassing."
Ocha smirked at him. “She only tells the good things about you. Like how you gave her a spaceship.” She looked over to see her daughter blushing. She moved her husband closer. “This is my husband Haruto. Ignore his grump appearance.”
“Uh, Nice to meet you, sir," Izuku said offering him a handshake. He had light-colored hair and was tall and broad-shouldered.
Haruto took the boy's hand and shook it. "Hurt my daughter and they won't find the body." He said giving him a stern look until he was elbowed by his wife. He looked to see his daughter pouting at him.
"Behave," Ocha warned him.
"Yes, dear," Haruto said with a defeated look.
Ocha looked over to the girls sitting on Izuku's bed. "You must be Raphtalia and Eri." She said pointing to each of them. "You are both much cuter than your pictures."
“You are Ochako Mama and Papa?” Raphtalia asked tilting her head slightly making her even cuter.
Ocha had to suppress a squeal at her being adorable. “Yes, we are.”
Izuku tried to stop her but was just a second too slow.
“Then since Ochako is our Mama does that make you our Grandma and Grandpa?” Raphtalia asked excitedly.
Inko tried to suppress a laugh as her granddaughter was on a roll. Mona and Mika were snickering as well they were used to this from their time with them. Negi and Kuro just smiled at the girl's questions.
Ocha squealed with delight and hugged both the girls. “Yes, I am!’ She said excitedly. Haruto looked very pale at this. She set the girls down and moved away to talk excitedly with Inko. Haruto was standing off to the side still in shock.
As Ocha moved away allowing for Mei to step in to hug him and give him a quick kiss. “Zuzu, you need to stop ending up in a hospital bed please.” She held onto him until she was tapped on the shoulder. “Oh, this is my Mom. She wanted to meet you.”
Izuku looked to see a Her mother was of average build and height. She had similar eyes to Mei, but her mother had black hair. She was wearing a similar outfit as Mei. She wore a long black sleeve shirt and gray overalls.
"Nice to meet you, Ma'am," Izuku said giving her his best smile. "Mei has told me a lot about you." He remembered back when he was cleaning the beach she would talk about how hard her mom worked.
"Same here," Melina said with a smile. "I am glad to see you have taken good care of my daughter. She seems much happier since she met you." Melina gave him a short bow. "You have my thanks."
“You don’t have to thank me. Mei is pretty special to me.” Izuku told her as he watched Mei flush a dark red.
Melina hugged her daughter. “This one is keeper dear.”
"Mom," Mei whined as she was led over to the other parents.
Toru rushed forward and hugged Izuku carefully not to get any ooze on him. “I am so glad you are ok Izuku.” She gave him a quick kiss. “I wanted to see you before I wash this gunk off me.” she gestured to the remaining ooze that she had in her hair on her clothing.
"Someone hit Tenga too hard," Izuku said offhandedly noticed the confused looks from most of the occupants in the room. "The purple bird creatures are made of ooze and feathers. Hit them too hard and they turn back to ooze. You could have taken a shower first.”
“I noticed." Toru deadpanned " I saw you have a shower in the room. I am going to borrow.” Toru said wishing she could cuddle up with him.
“It's all yours Toru," Izuku said smiling at her.
Someone cleared their throat behind them. Izuku turned to see a woman wearing a police uniform. He noted the lieutenant bars on her shoulder. She was of average height with broad shoulders. Her dark red hair was set in a professional bun. Her face was slightly rounded. Her eyes were an exotic ice blue. Her skin tone was slightly pale with a few freckles on her cheeks. She looked to be to be of American-Japanese descent.
“Nice to put a face to the name Young man. My name is Sarah Hakugare.” She gave him a stern look. “I have heard a lot about you from my daughter and my niece Mina.” She moved a bit closer to tower over him. “I will have to give you a warning. Take care of my daughter or I will hunt you down personally.” She warned him.
“Yes, Ma’am I understand.” Izuku nodded his head. “I would hurt myself before I hurt anyone I cared for.”
Sarah looked him straight in the eye. She had been a cop a long time and knew he meant every word. She gave him a slight smile. "Good."
"Will your husband be joining us today Ma'am?" Izuku asked looking around the room.
She gave him a bit of a sad smile. "My Husband passed away along time ago. He was an officer that fell in the line of duty just before Toru was born." She could see he was trying to apologize. "It's ok. We don't talk much about it. you didn't know." She watched Toru hug him a bit tighter,
She felt someone tap her thigh. she looked down to see Eri looking up at her. "Yes, sweetie?"
Eri sniffed a bit as her eyes watered a bit. "Are you mad at my Papa?" She asked as her bottom lip started to quiver.
Sarah felt her heart clench at her question and the look on her face. "No honey. I am not mad at him. Just want to make sure he treats her right."
"Ok," Eri said. holding out her arms. "Can I hug you, Grandma?"
Sarah quickly hugged the girl. Raphtalia was quick to join in. She went over to talk with the other Moms.
Kyoka held out a hand with a smug smile as Setsuna put a few bills in her hand. "Told you."
"Shut it," Setsuna grumbled. They had been watching Toru's mom trying to intimidate him. Kyoka bet Eri would get a hug from her first. Setsuna bet on her girl Raphtalia.
Kyoka walked over and sat on the bed next to Izuku. "You had me worried Izzy." She leaned in and kissed him. She wrapped her jacks gently around his neck as she ran a hand through his hair. She broke the kiss to gently tapped his chest with a finger. "You have to help me with my next song for making me worry."
"Sounds good to me Kyoko," Izuku said as he held her hand.
Kyoka stole one last kiss before she hugged the girls and headed back to her parents. Her mother was all smiles, but her father was looking a bit tense. She watched her dad walk over to talk with the other Dads in the room.
Mikoto walked over dragging her daughter with her and knelt in front of Eri and Raphtalia. "Hi girls. I'm your Grandpa Mikoto." She quickly hugged them. "Your Grandpa will be sad he missed out on getting to meet you two adorable girls."
"Grandma!" They said together with a giggle.
Mina moved over to kiss him. "Glad you are ok Izuku." She smiled as she felt him hold her hand. "I'm calling dibs on the next shower and then I will hug you." She smiled as her mom seemed to be having fun dotting on the girls.
"I will have to take a shower later tonight anyway. I'm not worried about a bit of ooze." Izuku told her as he pulled her into a hug. "You still look perfect to me." He said with a wink.
Mina's cheeks flushed a bit lilac. "Smooth Izuku." She gave him another kiss as her fingers were entangled in his hair. As she pulled back she smirked at him. "I want some snuggle time later."
"I'll see what I can do," Izuku said placing a kiss on the palm of her hand. He caught a glimpse of something in her peripheral vision. He looked to see Mina’s Mom standing there with a smile on her face and her hands on her hips. He noted that Mina look a lot like her. Her mom did not have her horns and her skin tone was a slightly darker pink. Mikoto's hair was pink and fluff like her daughter's, but it was shoulder length. "Nice to meet you, Ma'am. I can see where Mina gets her beauty from."
Mikoto's smile grew larger. "I like him already Mina. He's a keeper." She moved over and gave him a brief hug. "Mina told me about you and I can see you truly care for her." She gave him a wink. "I hope you don't plan on giving me more grandbabies anytime soon."
Mina's face went a darker lilac. "MOM!" she covered her face with her hands unable to look at her boyfriend.
Mikoto started laughing as Izuku went bright red and became a bit of a stammering mess. "Just kidding." She aid before heading off to talk with the other moms. "I expect you to have a family dinner with us soon. Mina's dad will want to meet you along with her siblings."
Mina watched her mom walk away. "Sorry, Izuku."
Izuku was still a bit red in the face as she gently squeezed her hand. "I should have expected that to happen," Izuku reassured her.
Mina kissed him again. As she was walking away she heard Toru call out "Showers free." Mina started to head that way when she spotted her friend coming out in just a towel.
Toru let out a happy sigh as she walked out of the bathroom. She felt better having the gunk off of her and she wrapped herself in a towel since she did not have a change of clothes waiting for her. Perk about being invisible was that she could walk out in a towel and not be embarrassed. "Showers free."
"Toru! Where are your clothes?" Sara asked as she walked over to her daughter glaring at her state of undress.
Toru turned to face her mother. "I didn't have a change of clothes with me. I'm invisible its fine Mom." She said a bit sad at that. She raised her arm to show her the silver bracelet with the white Dino gem on her wrist.
"Toru," Izuku called out to her from his bed. "Have you tried to use your Dino gem powers yet?" He thought of a way to fix her powers. It was just a hypothesis, but it could work.
"No," Toru replied to him. "I don't know how or what my powers are."
Izuku nodded his head. "The White Dino Gem gives the wielder the ability of camouflage and super speed." He made sure to know all the different abilities he had at his disposal if needed.
"She gets super speed!" Mina called out. "No fair!" She sent Toru a wink to let her know she was kidding.
Toru rolled her eyes. "I don't know how to use it Mina and I am already invisible, so camouflage is pointless."
Kyoka walked over to her and patted her on the shoulder. "When I first used mine, it was like a switch in my mind." She remembered practicing it when she learned of her extra ability thank to her Dino gem. Izuku helped her with that example. "After you get used to it you will be able to use it with minimal effort.
"I'll try," Toru said taking a deep breath. She imagined a switch in her mind and 'flipped it'. She heard several gasps as she opened her eyes to see people staring at her. "What?" She watched as her mom walked over to her very slowly with a shocked look on her face. "Mom?"
"Toru." Sarah whisper in awe. "My god it's a miracle." She said as tears started to fill her eyes. "Look down baby."
Toru looked down and froze. She could see her arms. They were a pale white and had green freckles on her arm. She looked close to see they were like lizard scales that shimmered slightly in the light. She spotted a few more freckle scales on her legs. "Please tell me this is not a dream." She whispered.
"It's not a dream Toru," Momo told her as she created a mirror out of her stomach. She set up the full-length mirror against the wall. "Take a look."
Toru thanked her as she slowly approached the mirror. She started to cry as she saw her face for the first time with her own eyes. The picture she got after the incident with Izuku's visor was nice to have, but it wasn't the same. She ran hands over her heart-shaped face with high cheekbones. Her hair was still wet and fell around to frame her face. Her hair was a bright almost luminescent red that reached her waist. Her eyes were a bright red that shift to a light purple depending on how the light hit them.
She turned sideways to see her green chameleon tail that was curled at the end. It was about to her knees in length. "I finally get to see it after years of knocking stuff over with it." Very few people knew about it. She normally kept it wrapped around her waist to keep from bumping things when she left the house. She was able to use it to pick up things after years of practice. She noticed that her tail had vertical red stripes that ran the length of her tail.
Sarah rushed forward to hug her daughter tightly kissing her forehead. She was crying happy tears to finally see her daughter's beautiful face after all these years of her being invisible. She had spent years consoling her daughter's broken heart after talking with countless specialists and support companies for any kind of help. They all told them it was impossible to help her daughter because her quirk was so rare and hard to work with. "It's like a dream come true."
The other families in the room smiled and hugged at the heart-warming sight in front of them. Pony was a little sad at first until Inko moved over and pulled her into a hug. "I'll fill in for your Mom dear," Inko said hugging her close.
"Thank you Inko." Pony replied as she enjoyed the hug. "It means a lot to me."
Inko patted her head. "You are welcome. Just take care of my son. that is all I ask."
"I can do that." Pony said with a smile. She defiantly needed to hear her mom's voice tonight.
Sarah ended her hug before rushing over to hug Izuku tightly. "Thank you." She said before she hurried back to her daughter.
Toru moved a few steps closer to Izuku. "What do you think Izuku?" She asked him. Her heart was beating quickly as she was anxious for his answer. She had an old anxiety about her tail. she was afraid that of being rejected for it.
Izuku looked at her and felt his face grow warm as he blushed. "I-I think that you look beautiful." He swallowed. "I like you visible or invisible. You will always be beautiful to me either way Toru." He was making sure to keep his eye focused on her face, but it was hard since she was wearing just a towel. He was not a monk. Her mother was a Police Officer and he did not want to have to run for his life.
Toru flushed a bright pink from head to toe. Even her tail had taken on a pink tone. She was smiling so bright that is it was almost blinding to everyone else in the room. Toru's eyes were partially glowing with happiness.
Mikoto knew her niece well enough to know what was going to happen next. She moved over to scoop up Eri and Raphtalia and pulled them close as she stepped away from the bed. She smiled as knew she was about to be a witness to something hilarious. Well, hilarious for her. Not for Sarah.
Toru rushed forward forgetting about the second part of her Dino gem powers. She moved in a sudden burst of super speed and collided against Izuku's bed. She flipped forward and landed straddling his lap with her hands landing on his shoulders to catch herself. The sudden stop caused her towel to come loose falling to her waist.
Toru's whole body turned a bright red as she realized she was straddling him wearing nothing but her towel. She felt Izuku's strong hands that were resting on her hips. Her mouth went dry as she felt his muscular shoulders under her hands.
Izuku was doing an impression of a tomato. He had reached out to catch her fall. His hand landed on her hips. He felt her soft skin under his hands. His drifted down getting an eyeful of her beautiful body. He noticed a heart-shaped birthmark made of scales just under her right breast. He quickly looked her in the eyes as he was unsure of how to proceed from there.
"Hands off my daughter!" Sarah barked out as she moved over wrapping Toru in a blanket and pulling her off Izuku whose hands were above his head. She looked over to see Mikoto laughing as Ochako and Setsuna had covered the girl's eyes. Momo had handed her a complete change of clothes as Sarah let Toru to the bathroom to get dressed with Mina hot on their heels.
Setsuna was laughing as she walked over to Izuku's bed and kissed him on the cheek. "That was nicely done their Romeo." She snuggled up beside him. "I was worried about you Izuku." She rested her head on his shoulder.
"I know Setsuna," Izuku said kissing her brow. "I will find a way to make it up to you." He knew he would be making it up to all of them and he would make sure it would be a date for them to remember.
"You better. I am waiting for Mina to get out of the shower and then I am getting this gunk off me." Setsuna tapped his chest. "I don't ignore a shower for just anyone." She gave him a wink as she separated her head from her shoulder to kiss him before reattaching it to her neck.
"I will endeavor to remember that." Izuku teased her. He knew that he was lucky to have all of them in his life. and Each one had their own unique way of showing they cared for him. "How about a Jurassic Park movie marathon and two meat-lovers pizzas?"
"You know me so well," Setsuna said excitedly for an afternoon of dinosaurs and pizza with him. She considered herself a cheap date. She didn't mind getting dressed up for a nice dinner every so often, but most of the time she just wanted a comfortable night in.
“Mama Suna!” Raphtalia said excitedly as she rushed towards her as soon as Mikoto let her down. Eri was right behind her.
"Hey, kiddo," Setsuna said as she separated her hands to pick her up and pull her towards her. She hugged the small Tanuki. She watched as Eri got on the bed as well and Setsuna pulled her into the hug as well. "Hey, Eri." They hugged her tight. "Well, I immediately feel better. Thank you.”
They started to talk excitedly with her when Setsuna walked over with a smile on her face that she knew from experience that she was in trouble. "Hey, Mom."
"Setsuna dear," Honoka said with an eerie tone. "How could you hide my adorable granddaughters from me." She knelt in front of Eri and Raphtalia. "My you two are so incredibly adorable.” She smiled as they got a bit shy at that. “Can I get a hug?” After they both gave her a hug her smile turned genuine. She released them and turned to stare at Izuku. "I can see that you make my daughter happy. Keep it that way." She gave him a stern look.
"Yes, Ma'am," Izuku said nodding his head quickly.
Honoka smiled “Glad we have an understanding. Now I believe it is time for my daughter to get a shower.” She waved at the girls before heading over to talk with Inko.
Setsuna rolled her eyes and kissed him on the lips. "Later Izuku."
"Later Setsuna," Izuku said as she watched her head to the bathroom. He noticed that Mina, and Toru, had changed into their new clothes.
Pony took her chance to see him and hugged the girls. “Hey Chibi’s.” She said giving them a wink before she carefully hugged him. “Is it alright if I cuddle with you?” She asked him staring into his eyes.
"That fine Pony." Izuku ran his fingers through his hair. "I know I worried you."
“Not your fault. Occupational hazard of being a hero.” Pony said in English. She planted a tender kiss on his cheek. “I wouldn’t want you any other way.” She nuzzled against him.
"Thanks, Pony," Izuku replied giving her a one-armed hug. “Are you going to call your family to let them know you are ok?”
“Yeah, if not my mom is going to worry non-stop.” Pony said she giggled slightly. “She may even show up in Japan without warning just to make sure.” She knew that was not going to happen. She had a massive farm to run and she rarely left it since she retired years ago. Her father had to drag her away on their anniversary and birthdays.
"I am sure she will be excited to hear from you," Izuku told her as she cuddled closer to him. Eri sat on her lap and Raphtalia sat on his. They enjoyed sitting there for a bit until Inko cleared her throat. “Maybe we can set up a movie night and let you cuddle some more.”
“Sounds good Izu.” Pony said as she placed a hand on his cheek and kissed him. She waited for Eri to get off her lap before allowing Momo to take her place. Eri and Raphtalia rushed after Pony to ask her questions.
Pony laughed as she pulled out her phone to call her Mom after seeing that she noticed 4 missed calls and 6 text messages. It was more controlled than she had been in the past when she was worried.
Pony waited as the phone rang. On the second ring, her mom picked up. "Pony! Your Aunt called and told me what happened are you, ok baby?"
“I am fine Mom.” Pony told her when she could get a word in edgewise. “I promise that I am ok. I was checked out by the staff, Nurses, and Doctors. I am just tired and in dire need of a shower.” She smiled as she had missed her a lot being over here in Japan.
"I am glad to hear it, baby. I was just worried about you."
“I know Mom and I appreciate it.” Pony told her as she down to see Eri waving at her before she headed off to Momo. “I am about to get a shower and head home to Auntie. I will call you when I get there.”
“Ok baby. Talk to you soon. I love you.”
“I love you too Mom.” Pony tells her with happy tears.
Momo sat down facing Izuku. She placed a hand on each side of his face and pulled him into an intense kiss. She caught Izuku off guard as she slide her tongue inside his mouth. She grew excited as he started to fight back against her tongue. She wanted to pin him to the wall but had to control herself with her parents and daughters in the room. When she pulled back from the kiss she was smiling “Glad to see you were alright Lover.” She said pressing her forehead against his. She had been waiting patiently as each girl got their turn and she wanted her moment to be special.
Izuku took a moment for his brain to reboot. “I am glad to see you are alright as well dear." He held her hand as he drew hearts to the palm of her hand with his thumb.
Momo felt her cheeks grow warm. She enjoyed looking into his eyes. She gave him another kiss, but it was shorter. “I want a romantic evening with you very soon Lover.” She shot Kyoka a look and watch as she put earplugs on her jacks for privacy. She leaned over and whispered in his ear. “If you are a good boy then you will get a very special surprise Lover.” Momo purred in his ear before giving it a little nip.
Izuku swallowed hard at the look in her eyes. “I will make sure to remember that dear." He was having to control his breathing as his heart was racing.
"Good boy," Momo said licking her lips. She was about to say something else when someone tapped her on the leg. She looked down and smiled to see it was Eri. "Yes, Eri dear?”
Eri held up her arms. “Can I have a hug Mama?”
Momo quickly scooped her up and held her close. "You sure cane sweetie." She placed a motherly kiss on her horn and looked to see Raphtalia was waiting for her turn. "Come on Raphtalia." Momo easily scooped her up and hugged her tightly. She was content at that moment. As she looked down she imaged children that looked like a mix of her and Izuku with his hair color and reckless. She started to hear a ticking in her mind. "My day is so much better by holding my girls." She told them getting Raphtalia and Eri to smile and giggle. She listened to the girls talking to her about their day and she made a few new dolls for them when they asked for them.
"You are such a good Mom to them Momo," Izuku told her as this was all he ever dreamed of having a family someday. He had girlfriends who loved him and Daughters to care for. He would protect them with everything he had. They were his whole world.
"And you are an amazing father," Momo told him with a dark blush on her face. "I can't wait to watch them grow up.”
Soon Momo waved the others girls back over for them to sit around him on the bed. They were talking happily and laughing. They were all one big family there on his bed.
Inko was smiling as the mothers were looking over their schedules to plan dinner together and eventually that led to them planning things later on. "Well, I think it is safe to say that the weddings will have to be staggered."
Ocha was looking at her planner. “I think it would be good to set the weddings after they graduate from UA. That way we have more openings in their schedules.”
Mikoto was grinning as Sarah was writing down the dinner with Izuku for both families. "I have the wedding book at home and I think we can find something Mina and Toru will be happy with," Mikoto told her.
Sarah rolled her eyes. "We have time to plan it out. I want Toru to be happy and to have a perfect honeymoon.
Mona looked at her planner as well. "I think that a year after graduation will be a good time for them to give us grandbabies."
Honoka got excited at that. “Yes, that sounds perfect. Eri and Raphtalia will need more siblings to play with and more for us to spoil.
Mika chimed in with a notebook in hand. "How about we have a ladies' night and plan the weddings, Honeymoons and make a list of grandbaby names."
All of the mothers agreed to this as got more excited about it.
Negi pulled out a flash from his jacket and took a swig before handing it to Kuro. "They are starting to plan my friend." He had to admit that the boy knew his daughter well enough to make her happy. He also saw how happy those girls were. “We are in so much trouble.”
Kuro let out a sigh as he took a swig from the flask as well. “I say we stand back and leave them to it or risk bodily harm.” He knew Mona had been getting excited at this since she first met their granddaughters. He offered the flask to the other Fathers.
Haruto took it and took two swigs. "My Baby." He cried as he heard the word wedding. "I can't even be mad at the boy. I can see how he makes her happy." He was not ready for her to grow up this fast. "How do you scare a boy that fights monsters?"
Kyotoku took a swig before handing it back to Negi. “I know. He got my daughter to sing in public with her favorite band. I have never seen her happier.” He knew that Izuku was a good kid. He looked him up and noted all his charity work and could see how happy those girls were with him as their Papa. He let out a sigh. “All we can do is make sure he treats them well and let out wives have their fun.”
Recover Girl came back in to check on Izuku. She told them he needed another round of healing and he would need his rest. His Girlfriends said their goodbyes with a promise to check on him the next day. They walked out with their parents and becomes embarrassed when their mothers were asking them about wedding details. Pony was taken home by Momo and her parents. Inko and Miruko had a meeting to attend and Eri and Raphtalia wanted to stay and take nap with their Papa.

Chapter Text
Mitsuki was escorted to her son's room by an Officer after she checked like Midnight had instructed the parents to do so. They informed her that her son had been brought to a private room for further treatment. She opened the door to the room to find an elderly woman looking at a clipboard. "Excuse me, my name is Mitsuki Bakugo. I was told that my son was brought here?”
"Hello Ma'am. My name is Recovery Girl." She placed the clipboard at the foot of the bed and moved over to greet her. "Your son is stable right now. I found a large bump on his head, but he had no signs of concussion, so there is some good news on that." Recovery Girl watched as Mitsuki let out a breath of relief and started to run her fingers through her son's hair. She couldn't help but smile at the motherly gesture. "I healed the bump on his head and hopefully he wakes up in a few hours and you can take him home tonight."
"Thank you. For everything." Mitsuki told her as she sat down and held her son's hand. She looked to the door as Recovery Girl left the room. She looked at her son and felt her stomach clench. Her baby was in a hospital bed. She had this nightmare all the time since he started at UA, but this time he was safe and alive. She loved her son from the moment he was born and held him in her arms. He was her whole world. Her husband had died with Katsuki was 2 years old when a villain attack that destroyed his office building. She got through it with the help of Inko. She was there to help her after the funeral and would watch Katsuki when she needed a break. She took any job she could to keep a roof over their head. She was a Driving Instructor for a while and then she was hired for a modeling gig that launched her career. She was able to stay at home a bit more with her son and the money was good enough to keep them living comfortably.
She was proud of her son as he grew up. He got good grades in school and he was driven to become the next #1 Pro Hero of Japan. She looked back and wondered where she failed as a Mother. After the incident with the Slime Villain that almost killed her son, she had found out from Inko of all the bullying her son had caused to Izuku. She wondered what she could have done to stop him from going down that path. She remembered taking her son to the park and playing various games with him. She was trying to be supportive when she came to his Disciplinary Hearing at UA. She was horrified at his actions after losing his first match and almost seriously hurt Izuku and two of his classmates in a fit of rage. She tried to get him to talk about it, but he adamantly refused. He just blamed Izuku for his suspension and stormed off to his room. She was worried about the path her son was going down. He took him to her mandated therapy, but he refused to talk about how it was going.
She was interrupted from her musings when she heard the door open. She looked over to see Inko had walked into the room. "Hey, Inko." She got up to meet her friend halfway.
Inko walked over to hug her friend. "I wanted to come to check on you." She pulled back from the hug. "How are you holding up Mitsuki?"
“I am holding up alright for the moment Inko," Mitsuki told her as she sat back down next to her son's bed. “I will be better when he wakes up and starts calling me a hag.” She chuckled slightly as she always hated when he called her that. Now she would trade anything for him to call her that again. “How is Izuku doing.”
“He will be fine. He was a little banged up, but Recovery Girl is patching him up. The girls are with him now and I wanted to check on you before I had to go to a staff meeting.” Inko told her while she sat beside her friend. “I am glad our boys are ok.” Inko patted her friend's hand.
"Same here Inko," Mitsuki replied as she leaned back in her chair. "Do you think it will get any easier as they get older and graduate from UA?" She shuddered to think about what getting a phone call about them getting or worse.
"I doubt it." Inko said giving her friend a sad smile. "I think this is the beginning of our long nights of worrying about our sons." Inko let out a tired sigh as she leaned back in her chair a bit. "Hopefully he will wake up soon."
"I hope so," Mitsuki said as tears ran down her face. "I just want my baby to wake up." She started to sob as Inko moved over to hold her friend close letting her cry into her shirt. She stayed like that until it was time for her to head for her meeting.
Shigaraki was dropped unceremoniously on the gurney by Kurogiri as he screamed in pain. Doctor Giraki had to restrain him to the gurney to keep him still while he examined him. “Stop moving so I can get a better look at your injures boy.” Doctor Giraki said with a sigh. He had managed to get an IV in Shigaraki arm and started to examine his injuries.
When he was finished he moved to stand in front of the TV. "His injuries are quite extensive. Traumatic removal of two fingers that have been cauterized. A severe burn on the left knee and." The Doctor trailed off for a moment as Shigaraki seemed to calm down enough to listen to him. "The traumatic removal and cauterization of his reproductive organs."
This sent Shigaraki in a fit of rage and screams of pain. His words were slurred and incoherent as he tried to break the restraints. The Doctor was forced to give him a light sedative to calm him down. After his patient was drifted off to sleep he let out another sigh.
“That is troubling to hear Doctor.” All for One said through the TV. “Sadly, his failure was seen all over Japan thanks to some fool he recruited.” His tone was that of barely contained fury. “I shall have Kurogiri bring him here long enough to swap his quirk out for a regeneration one. A very slow one.” The screen when quiet for a few moments. “You will not give him any more sedatives or pain medicine. He will suffer from his failure as a lesson.”
"I understand sir." Dr. Giraki replied as he moved the tray of pain meds away from Shigaraki. He watched as Kurogiri left with him and returned about 5 minutes later. "Will there be anything else you need from me, sir?"
"No Doctor, you are free to return to your experiments with the crystals and I hope your next update on our enforcers is a positive one." All for One instructed him. He left the threat to the Giraki left unsaid.
“Of course, sir.” Doctor Giraki said as he walked quickly through the portal to Lab and hurried to find his matches for the last 2 crystals. He looked over to see three of his subjects looking bored in their cells. He walked over and placed a call for the next round of possible matches. Within a week he would hope to have another match. He decided to increase his chances with a name that was suggested by Giran. He wrote the name Himiko Toga. “Maybe you will be my lucky charm.” He said to himself as he went to check on his living subjects.
"My, my how the mighty have fallen," Scorpina commented as she walked into the room smiling as she looked to see Shigaraki strapped to the gurney. "Looks like you bit off more than you could chew little monkey." She reached over and have his head a light shove. "Now it’s time to collect my debt that he owes me.”
"Oh, are you talking about the dealt hat Young Tomura struck with you Scorpina at the USJ?” All for One asked. He had watched the battle and noted their conversation that had her summon her minions and create not one, but two monsters for Tomura.
"I see you are aware of our deal," Scorpina replied turning to face her screen.
All for One started to laugh. "I am aware of your deal with him, now what is the price that you want for your assistance?" He was curious to see what her demands would be. He was trying to figure out a way to add to Tomura’s punishment for his failure.
"I am in need of a servant," Scorpina replied nonchalantly as she pointed towards the gurney. "We made a deal. I own him now. That is my price." She continued to stare at the screen knowing that AFO would be thinking over her demands.
“How about a compromise Scorpina. I will allow you to take Tomura as your servant if you are willing to allow him to continue his lesson with me." All for One offered her. “You get to train him or do with him as you please, but I would like to find something to barter with you, so that I may get him back to my servicesat some point for my purposes."
Scorpina looked back to the monkey on the gurney and thought it over. “That will be acceptable All for One." She walked over and snapped her fingers. A golden collar appeared in her hands. It was a simple circle with a scorpion engraved in on a circular pendant. She placed the collar around his neck and fused it shut with her magic. "I will await his recovery to take him to his new quarters." Scorpina gave the screen a light bow. "Pleasure doing business with you All for One." She turned and vanished from the room.
Kurogiri moved over to the screen. “Is it wise to hand him over to her Sensei?” He asked looking as Tomura started to stir as his wounds were starting to heal. “He may not survive long with her.”
“Tomura made the deal with her and He will have to learn that he has to pay the price when it comes to making deals.” All for One informed him. “I hope this will help build his character and help him finally grow up.”
Kurogiri remained silent. "I understand sir." After remaining quiet for a moment. "How long until he is completely healed?”
"It will be a long week for him. I placed the regeneration quirk and as punishment, I also placed a quirk that will increase his pain levels as he heals.” All for One said proudly. “Now I need you to assist the good Doctor in finding more subjects.”
"It will be done Sensei," Kurogiri replied as he bowed. He opened a portal and disappeared.
Over the next few hours as the sedative wore off Tomura awoke to intense pain in his hands and groin. He tried to move, but he was still strapped tightly to the gurney. He started screaming as the pain started to increase slowly. Soon he felt like he was being set on fire. He screamed until he lost his voice. After a while, he was too tired to fight against the restraints. All he could think about was getting revenge on that bastard. He was going to destroy everything he cared about. He was going to make the whole world suffer.
Nezu had finished talking with the last of the parents when he got a message from DECA on his phone.
DECA: Chairman has called an Emergency Meeting with the Board that started 2 minutes ago.
Nezu just smiled. “Naomasa, how would you like to be the one to arrest Neigo Monoma and the entire UA Board on multiple criminal charges?” He asked the Detective as he handed him a sheet of paper from his pocket. Naomasa’s expression on his face made it seem like Christmas came early for him.
"Oh, it will be my absolute pleasure to assist you with this sir," Naomasa said handing the piece of paper back to Nezu. He called out to several officers. As they followed Nezu to the Board Members all the officers were smiling ear to ear. Several of the Board members had been on their radar for quite a while but their investigations never went anywhere due to a lack of evidence.
“The UA Sports Festivals has been approved with the usual unbreakable contracts with all of our televised sponsors and nonrefundable tickets that have already been sold to multiple agencies and to the public," Neigo said as he watched the members of the board start signing the contracts. He knew Nezu would try to postpone or god forbid cancel the event after today's fiasco at the USJ costing them all millions of dollars in countless penalties and additional advertising. He called the meeting so he could keep the 'donation’ that was given to himself and the Board every year for the guaranteed date of the Sports Festival and guarantee their sponsors with first choice Ad placement around the stadium and time slots for commercials.
They had just signed the last contract when the doors were thrown open as Nezu walked in with 2 dozen officers and a smile on his face.
"What is the meaning of this Nezu?" Neigo roared at Nezu. "We are in the middle of a very important meeting." He tried to be intimidating, but Nezu's smile had all of the Board members very afraid.
"Well, that is a very simple question to answer Monoma." Nezu said taking a step forward. "These men are here to arrest you and the other members of the Board for a plethora of charges. Multiple Counts of Embezzling School Funds, Blackmail, Intimidation just to name a few.” He pulled out a piece of paper from his jacket. “I submitted all of my evidence to a Judge first thing this morning and after the USJ Attack was broadcasted all of Japan. He decided to put a priority rush on the paperwork here so you all could be taken into custody since the police were already on campus." Nezu smiled grew as the members of the Board started to go pale and few looked like they were on the edge of crying. When one of them tried to make a break for it the Officers swarmed them quickly placing them in quirk suppressor cuffs
“UNHAND ME!” Neigo roared as he struggled against the officers. “I will have all of your badges for this!” Another officer was needed to get him under control. “You can’t get rid of me Nezu! I will be back and then I will do, I will expel your freak of a student and blacklist his worthless mother!” He snarled trying to intimidate the Rat.
Nezu glared at Neigo. “I have tolerated a lot from you over the years Neigo, but do NOT mistake my kindness for weakness.” He took a step forward. “YOU will not threaten my student or his family in front of me. I was willing to let you rot for what you did during your time here at UA, but now I going to burn everything to the ground around you.” He pulled out his phone and made a call. “Release it to the Judge and Prosecutor for me please.”
“What was that?” Neigo asked as a 4th officer came over to help lead him towards the door with the others. He needed to call his brother to get them to drop the case immediately.
Nezu just smiled evilly at him. "That was to send a record of every illegal act you have ever committed since you graduated from College. Everything that you tried to hide or buried over the years. I have been very thorough and I included everything I found on your brother as well." He watched as the man went paler and started to sweat profusely. "Get this piece of trash out of my school Detective."
"With pleasure," Naomasa said with a grin as he gave the man a shove.
As Neigo and the rest of the Board members were being led out the main entrance to be loaded into the Police van. There was a crowd of reporters and several cameramen reporting on their arrests. Soon it was all over the news along with the Incident at the USJ. All the news agencies were chomping at the bit for the Press Conference that was scheduled for tomorrow morning. Many of them were planning on camping outside the main gate so they would be first in line.
Mineta woke up in a hospital bed confused at first about how he got there. He remembered that he had groped the frog and was then punched by bird boy then he remembered nothing. He tried to move his hand when he noticed that he was handcuffed to his bed rails. He noticed the Police Officer sitting in the room made a call and a short time later the Doctor came into his room.
After his check-up, the Doctor turned to the Officer sitting in the corner. "He is cleared to be released into your custody Officer."
"Wait! Why am I in Police Custody?" Mineta asked scared as another officer entered the room as they escorted him out of the hospital to the waiting patrol car. "I didn't do anything wrong!" He wailed.
"You know what you did you, little pervert." One of the officers snapped at him. He had drawn the short straw in taking the pervert to the station. He had a daughter at home close to that age that made him disgusted being around the grape pervert.
Mineta was confused for a minute then he remembered what he did to the frog girl. “Come on you can’t be serious arresting me for that? It was a victimless crime!” He yelled as he tried to make a break for it, but the officers had a firm grip on him.
"Stop talking." The other offer growled at him. They put him in the back seat of the car and started towards the station. The entire way we begged the officer to let him go or told him his mother would pay them handsomely to ‘lose’ him along the way. By the time they reached the station, they had to hand him off to a different pair of officers to prevent them from punching the grape.
Later after he was processed and placed in an orange jumpsuit. They allowed him to talk with his Lawyer and Mother. It was not looking good for Mineta. His groping of Tsuyu Asui was all over the media and her parents were pushing for him to be charged.
“Mom you have to get me out of here!” Mineta begged as he looked around at the glares he was getting from the guards and inmates.
"I am working on it son, but with the Board Scandal and your incident at the USJ right now my name is mud to anyone that could help you." She said with a tired sigh. She had been scrambling to salvage her reputation and her business contracts after her son's public 'indiscretion'. She was still close to losing everything and without her connection to the board there was no way to get him back into UA after Nezu expelled him and no other Hero School would accept him after that black mark on his record and the televised incident.
The lawyer cleared his throat. “Our only chance right now is for leniency with the judge.” The lawyer said as looked over the case file. “With this being your first offense and you were a Hero Student might be enough for you to avoid jail time.
"Thank God," Mineta said resting his head on the table. He felt like this was all going to work out for him and he would be back in UA before he knew it. He didn’t like having to look over his shoulder for much longer.
The Prosecutors office was soon flooded with multiple calls about other incidents that Mineta had committed over the years. As they told them about how he harassed them or groped them in one way or another. This led them to find that his mother had bribed investigators or officials to make it go away. She had also paid off the parents in some cases to get the complaint dropped. By the end of the week, they came across 240 complaints over a 3 years period. Some of these were still able to be prosecuted.
The Judge took one look at the case and gave Mineta no leniency and denied his chance at bail due to his mother’s connection with the corrupt members of the UA board members that were arrested as well. He would later be found guilty on at least 3 dozen charges and sentenced to a Juvenile Facility until his 18th birthday where he would be transferred to prison for a minimum of 10 years.
His mother would later be arrested on countless charges after a connection was found to the Board Members and was sentenced to prison for 20 years.
Mineta was famous for all the wrong reasons when he arrived at his cell block. He was treated like a leper by the rest of his fellow inmates. He was assigned to a cell with a large muscular boy that the other inmates called Big Daddy for obvious reasons. He took one look at Mineta as he looked at the Girls from UA. He dragged Mineta to their cell by his collar claiming him as his ‘special friend’. No one came to his rescue.
Mineta was in his own special kind of hell.
It was later that evening when the Teachers and Pros arrived at the Teachers’ Lounge. All of them were exhausted and were ready to call it a day. All Might had taken the opportunity to take a brief shower and changed out of his ooze-covered clothing. He put them in the incinerator.
The only people that were missing at the moment were Inko and that was because she wanted to check on Izuku before the meeting and Nezu. Everyone was seated around the table making small talk as they were waiting for Nezu to enter the room.
They did not have to wait long as a tired Nezu walked into the room with a hooded figure following close behind him. Trailing short behind them was DECA in her Fox body. As Nezu took his seat the hooded figure stood to the right of him. DECA jumped onto the table and took a seat to his left. Many of the teachers were exchanging looks as they let Nezu get comfortable in his chair.
“Thank you all for waiting. I know it is getting late and we could all use some much-needed rest after today.” Nezu told them as he open a folder in front of him. “We were luck today with only had 3 students injured with minor injuries and one injured teacher.” Nezu turned to look at Vlad King. “How are you feeling?”
Vlad King slowly moved his shoulder. “I’m alright. I’ll be on light duty for a few days.”
Nezu nodded his head. "I am glad to hear it." He turned a page in the folder. “Mr. Manga Fukidashi had a concussion and was healed by Recovery Girl. He is now on his way home with his parents to rest.” Nezu moved to the next sheet in the file.
"Mr. Katsuki Bakugo also received a head injury, but no concussion. He is currently resting with His Mother watching over him. I had Hound Dog and All Might check the area he was found, but came up with nothing."
He leaned back in his chair. “Lastly Izuku Midoriya had several cracked ribs and a concussion. He is currently under Recover Girl’s care. He will make a full recovery soon.” Many of the teachers and staff were glad to hear that their students would be alright. All Might was sweating a bit when they find out how he got those injuries.
“Who was the Ranger in Gold and Black that was on the catwalk?” Miruko asked. She wanted to thank them for catching the sniper that took a shot at her brother.
Nezu shrugged his shoulders. “I do not know Miruko.” He gestured to DECA. “I had DECA search the footage from the security camera and the Command Center records.
"No student, staff member, or Pro Hero was matched with the Morpher of the Gold Zeo Ranger," DECA informed them as she projected an image above her. "Also, the Gold Zeo Staff and Morpher are still in the Ranger Vault in the Command Center."
"They seem to be a friend to us," Ryukyu said looking at the image. "I wonder why they didn't stick around to talk to us."
"That might be a possibility." Nezu agreed. "Hopefully they reach out to us, but for now we will have to put that on hold to focus on other matters." He looked across the table. "All Might what is the status of the Villains from the USJ?"
All Might clears his throat. “They have been detained and Officers are processing all villains that were found at the USJ, minus Kurogiri, Shigaraki, and Scorpina.” He looked at the frowns on Shouta, Mandalay, and Rumi's faces. "The sniper was initially questioned by Detective Naomasa who confirmed he was hired to take out Young Midoriya." That got several of the people in the room gasping.
“Someone hired a hit on my brother?” Midnight asked through clenched teeth. She would have stood up if Pixie-Bob did not have a hand on her shoulder. Mt. Lady, Miruko, and Ryukyu were seething as well. Several of the other teachers moved away from the angry women.
“Who hired him?” Mt. Lady asked trying to remain calm that some took out a hit of a 15-year-old hero student. She looked over to see that Ryukyu was keeping Miruko from getting up from her chair.
All Might hesitated a moment before answering. "I don't know. He wouldn't talk and HPSC came in and took him into custody for breaking out of prison. They took jurisdiction of the case." He reached into his pocket took out a folded piece of paper. "Here is the person who authorized the transfer order."
It was handed down the table to Nezu. He opened the sheet and frowned. He handed it to the hooded figure who seemed to tense. “Excuse me for a moment please," Nezu said in a cold tone before leaving the room with the figure right behind him. When he returned a few minutes later with an angry expression on his face. "It seems that the transfer order was signed by HPSC Officer Nero Monoma." Nezu spat before he took a sip of tea the hooded figure prepared for him. "I thought he was arrested along with his brother on countess charges, but it appears that after an internal investigation with several lie detection quirks they have cleared him of all wrongdoing."
The room seemed to go quiet for a minute as Nezu seemed to be composing himself.
"From this point on nothing leaves this room," Nezu tells everyone in attendance. "While investigating Neigo Monoma I came across many inconsistencies in the records of going back several years. With the help of DECA, I was able to get enough evidence to take down Monoma and the entire board in one move." He took a sip of his tea as he watched the shocked look on everyone's faces. "I found a recent request by Nero Monoma to see a specific Inmate in secret in Tartarus."
“Who was the inmate?” Present Mic asked leaning back in his chair trying not to fall asleep.
Nezu nodded at the hooded figure. They removed their hood revealing shoulder-length pink and purple hair. "He was there to see me." Lady Nagant said giving them a lazy wave. "How's it going?"
The Pros that recognized her were about to jump to their feet when Nezu called out. “STOP!” Nobody moved a muscle. “Lady Nagant is here because she helped me get my evidence against the Monoma family. Not everything you heard back when she was arrested is true.” He looked over at Lady Nagant. “Tell them what Office Monoma wanted from you please.”
"That arrogant asshole wanted me to take out Izuku, but I laughed in his face at that request. I have a code, despite what Monoma and HPSC released after my arrest." She looked at the faces of the Pros in the room. "Look believe me or not, but I made a deal with Nezu and the International Hero Commission for my Pardon. They put me through the wringer to prove my innocence on most of what they charged me with."
Miruko was on her feet now. “Why is that asshole not in jail? He had to have hired the other sniper.” Miruko said gripping the table hard enough it was starting to creak.
Nezu gave her a stern look and Miruko relaxed. "According to the President of the IHC, they sent their report to the President of the HPSC and she decided the report was unreliable and biased," Nezu told them with a grimace. "They conducted their own internal investigation and have determined that Neigo was behind it all, not Nero Monoma.”
“THAT’S BULLSHIT!” Midnight, Mt. Lady, and Miruko shouted in anger. Ryukyu had restrained herself, but the anger on her face was quite visible. All Might and Shouta were both scowling in anger.
“While I agree with your sentiments. We will have to continue our investigation of him and bury the HPSC President with so much evidence she can't possibly ignore it." Nezu told all of them. He was about to change the subject when the door open and in walked Inko.
“Sorry Nezu, I lost track of time with Izuku and Mitsuki.” She went over to take a seat when she looked at a familiar face standing next to Nezu. She paused for a few moments before her eyes lit up with recognition. “Kaina?” Inko asked looking shocked at the woman. “Is that really you Kaina?”
Kaina hurried over with a smile. “It’s me Ko,” She moved over and pulled Inko in a tight embrace. “God, I missed you.” She had been dreaming of this day for years.
Inko hugged her tightly and smiled. “I thought you would have forgotten about me after all these years Kaina.” She pulled back to smile at her old friend. “Izuku missed you terribly. He cried for days after you went away.” Inko could remember his sad face at seeing her be called a villain on the news.
Kaina gave her a sad smile. "I missed that little green bunny so much." She shook off her sadness. "Now the sad talk is done. I can't wait to talk to him. I saw him for a few minutes at the USJ. He looks so handsome now."
Miruko recognized her nickname for him and made a not to ask about it later.
“You were at the USJ?” Inko asked surprised.
Kaina gave her a nod. "Yep, I took out the sniper and deflected the shot away from Izuku." She looked down at the ground. "I would have knocked the shot a bit further away, but I was a bit rusty." She was afraid of how she was going to react. "Sorry, Inko."
Inko pulled her back into a hug. "You saved my son. You don't owe me an apology for that Kaina."
Present Mic blinked a few times before he looked at the other Pros in the room. “Anyone else a bit confused that Inko is hugging Lady Nagant?” He asked his fellow heroes. Several of them were nodding their heads. "Hey Inko, how do you know her?"
Inko broke the hug and smiled. "Well, it was about 16 years ago. I was working as a nurse in a hospital in Tokyo and she was brought in for some injuries." Inko thought back to all these years ago. "I was patching her up and didn't like how she was being treated by her handler." Inko cough a bit. "I asked him to leave the room while I was working."
Kaina snorted. “That was an understatement. You tossed him out of the room by his shirt collar and banned him from entering the room while you were working.” She smiled as Inko started to turn a bit red with embarrassment. “When he tried to push her out of the way, Inko dropped him with a throat punch.” She started to snicker as she felt Inko elbow her.
The people in the room looked at Inko and tried to imagine Inko punching someone in the throat. Miruko started laughing at this. Midnight and Mt. Lady started to snicker at this. Ryukyu looked impressed at her actions giving her a thumbs up. A few other Pros gave her a soft round of applause.
Kain smirked at them. "Needless to say, she made quite an impression on 20-year-old me." Kaina threw her arm around Inko's neck. "After that, she would invite me over for a home-cooked meal or call to check up on me."
Inko rolled her eyes. "I was just looking out for you." She grinned at the memories of her first home-cooked meal at her place. "She was one of my Brides Maids, along with Mitsuki. She was there where Izuku was born and would babysit him when he got older when she was free of hero work."
Snipe cleared his throat. “Wait a minute, are you telling me that The Lady Nagant. One of the world's best marksman and one of the Top Heroines was babysitting Izuku in her free time?" He found that hard to believe from what he knew about her back in the day.
Kaina quirked an eyebrow at him. “He was adorable and it was something I enjoyed doing.” She started to recall the days Izuku would cuddle up with her and call her Kai. She grew attached to him. She had gotten him a green bunny outfit and he would wear it every time she was over to visit or babysit him.
Nezu cleared his throat. "As much as I enjoy the trip down memory lane. It is getting late and I am sure Inko wants to get back to Izuku as soon as possible." He knew that Nagant had been antsy to meet with Inko. "Now let's get back to the matter at hand, shall we?"
Inko took a seat near her daughters and Kaina pulled a chair up behind her.
Nezu clicked a remote turning the TV on behind them. “As many of you know by now due to a villain taking over the broadcasting systems as the USJ the entire fight was broadcast all over Japan live.” He looked to see everyone nodding their head. “Now, as of right now I have closed UA until Monday to allow for students time to rest and for our security to be upgraded.” He looked around the room. “I am sure it won’t be long before videos of the USJ attack will be uploaded to Herotube and shared around the globe.”
Shouta let out a tired sigh. “That means you are still planning on doing your Press Conference tomorrow?” He knew that one would have to be made since UA was being put on the spot for the attack. If the video was about to be uploaded to the web them it would go viral within minutes.
"Yes," Nezu answered. "I was already planning on making my Special announcement tomorrow anyway. This will become one big event with my official statement about the USJ and my announcement.” He looked over to several of his staff members. Shouta, Midnight I will need you both here first thing in the morning.” Nezu looked at a few others in the room. “Hound Dog and Lady Nagant, when this is over can you both stay behind for a minute please?”
Shouta and Midnight grumbled but nodded their head towards Nezu. Pixie-Bob was patting Midnight's lap in sympathy. Both Hound Dog and Lady Nagant gave him a nod.
"What is the announcement, sir?" All Might asked. He was short on time and wanted to get back to his office as quickly as possible.
"You will have to watch the news tomorrow All Might like everyone else." Nezu smiled at everyone in the room feeling them all with nervous energy. "Now let get the last few things covered and we can call it a night."
In the United States, a group of High-Ranking men and women of the US Government were watching a video from one of their assets in Japan that had been sent to them. They were watching a coordinated villain attack on UA. They had to admit that the students from UA were good and that the villains were unprepared to fight them. What caught their attention was their ability to change into the color suits that seemed to grant them superhuman abilities, A red dragon appeared, and massive machines were battling giant monsters.
“Anyone have any knowledge of this kind of technology?” One of the generals in the room asked.
"CIA and other intelligence agencies are coming up dry." A man in a suit answered. He flipped a few pages in his folder. "It all seems to stem from a boy. Izuku Midoriya, Age 15, Quirkless. According to my asset, it started almost a year ago when he appeared using an unknown support device and saved a boy from a slime villain. Since then he has made several other appearances in similar suits and had been able to call for those massive machines when needed." He closed the folder and looked at the others in the room. "It seems that he has been selected as Nezu's personal student."
That seemed to get them all mumbling profanities. "Great, Of course, that rat is involved." One of them voiced as they pinched the bridge of their nose. Nezu was famous for his intelligence and cunning when it came to dealing with people that crossed him. There was a reason that most governments gave him a wide berth.
After looking through more papers another General chimed in. “We have an American exchange student at UA.” He starts as he reads the file. “Pony Tsunotori, Age 15 Quirk- Horn Cannons. She is the daughter of retired Heroine Laura Tsunotori AKA Strength Heroine: Minotaur or Cow Girl depending on who you ask.” The general looked around to the other in the room. “Maybe we can have our asset reach out to her to give us the information we need or get her hand over her device for us to study?”
The room was unable to agree on that matter of using a child for an act of espionage in a foreign country and they started to debate the risks when someone cleared their throat. “I would not recommend any of you trying to use Laura Tsunotori's daughter in any way, shape, or form." The room turned to look at the speaker.
Sitting in a chair was a tall well-muscled woman. She had an elegant-looking face with a red mask over her eyes that fit perfectly on her face. Her long blond hair was swept back in tufts similar to how All Might had his hair. She wore a USA-themed skin-tight bodysuit with shoulder pads and a red and white striped cape. She rested her gauntlets-covered forearms on the table in front of her. This was Cathleen Bate AKA Stars and Stripes. She gave them all a stern look.
“Not only was Laura Tsunotori one of the top 15 Heroines before her retirement, but she was also my mentor that took me on as her Sidekick before she retired to help make sure I was ready to go Solo.” She leaned forward to give them a chilling stare. “I am also Pony’s Godmother and I will not sit by and watch you try and use my Goddaughter as a spy in a foreign country. Especially when you are going against Nezu.” She let her words sink into the people in the room. Many of them swallowed nervously. After no one else had anything to say she smiled. “That’s better. Now I have a very easy solution to this without trying to start a war with Japan or Nezu for that matter.”
“What is your solution then?” One of them asked after they found their voice.
Stars and Stripes smiled. “I will go talk with Nezu and Izuku Midoriya in person." She Leaned back in her chair. "I would rather be honest with Nezu as I would rather have him as my Ally than as my Enemy." She looked over all the officials in the room. "I will see if we can come to some kind of agreement with them."
The room seemed to agree with her reasoning.
Stars and Stripes smiled. "Excellent, I will let you handle the details. I want to be in Japan in two to three weeks." She stood up and headed for the door. "Have private plane chartered as I will be bringing a guest with me on my trip to Japan.
“Who is the guest?” Someone asked.
Stars and Stripes stopped and gave them a genuine smile. “Why Laura Tsunotori, of course." And with that, she left the room to pack for a short trip to Texas to see her old mentor.
Scorpina knelt in front of her Master. “All according to your planned Master.” Scorpina had her head bowed as she waited for his response.
“You have done well Scorpina, we have forced the Rangers to reveal their hand and this will cause All for One to adjust his plans to my needs.” Dark Spectre praised his general. "You must keep your true power a secret until the time is right.”
Scorpina nodded. “Yes, my Master.” Scorpina remained kneeling waiting for him to dismiss her.
“Go.” Dark Spectre told her as he went back to his planning. “I will summon you when I need you to do my bidding.” The room went back to normal.
Scorpina let out a breath as she felt his presence fade away. She vanish from the room and appeared into a luxurious office on the top floor of a building in Tokyo. She snapped her finger and took a different appearance. Her armor was gone replaced by a gray business suit. She wore a gold vest and tie under her jacket. Her hair was a glossy back that was set in a tight bun. She moved to the desk and grinned.
Maiko Sasori
President of Sasori Inc.
She had been working in the shadows for almost two centuries. In the last decade with the help of her Master and AFO allowed for her to start working her way into different companies looking for anything she could use to assist in their plans. With this identity, she was able to meet with many companies that caught their interest. She considered it boring to deal with the monkeys, but she would not go against her Master's wishes. She would make her appearance when needed and had to play her role as a charitable and caring CEO. Her current goal was to get onto I-Island to look at several promising projects.
She sat at her desk and looked over her paperwork and signed off on the expenses that needed her approval. She groaned as she saw a note for her assistant about important documentation for her to read over in her E-Mail. She hated dealing with technology. She turned her computer on and waited as it booted up. She grabbed the remote and turned on the TV in her office that was rarely used like most the items in her office. She frowned as the USJ was the top news. She was about to turn it off when they started to show the other battles that occurred at the USJ. She grabbed a notepad and paper. She noted the number of rangers and the Quirks that the students had used beforehand to factor into later battles with them. She was in the middle of writing when she spotted someone on the screen that caused her to freeze. Her jaw drops in surprise. "No," She whispered as she felt a pit form in her stomach. She tapped the intercom on her desk.
"Yes, Miss Sasori?” A female voice responded.
Scorpina pressed the button. "Can you get me a list of the students that were involved in the USJ attack? I want to send the families a kind letter after what their children have been through." She lied smoothly. She had years of becoming a master manipulator of humans. "I would also like to hold a reception for the students here if it is possible.”
“I will get right on it Ma’am.”
Scorpina sat back in her chair looking at clips of the USJ online. After finding the clip she was looking for she played until she got the image she was looking for. "What are you doing at UA?' She asked herself as she resumed watching the clip. Now she had to wait to find the name she was looking for. She hope it was just her imagination.
She wanted to get ahead of this. It could lead to her Master discovering her secret and having it used against her. She needed to move quickly.
Nero groaned sits down in his home office and lets out a deep sigh after his interrogation. He had made it out of the entire USJ mess by the skin of his teeth. He had sacrificed his older brother to the vultures and has solidified his place in the HPSC. He had used an old asset to make it so he would pass any polygraph test or quirk to allow him to stay out of jail.
He would be under a microscope for the foreseeable future, but that was better than sitting in a prison cell like his brother was currently doing. He needed to get ahead of this issue with Izuku Midoriya. The boy was becoming a pain in the ass and he needed to get his hands on that technology before All for One decided he was too much of a liability. He decided that he needed to take a different approach. He loaded up the videos he needed to convince his friend to help.
He dug out his contact book and thumbed through it looking for a specific number. He dialed the number of an 'old 'friend' on a secret phone. He sighed again as the phone was ringing. Eventually, they picked up the phone and after a moment a voice came on the line.
“Why the fuck are you calling me at 6 in the goddamn morning? We are done Nero especially after how you screwed me over all those years ago.” The voice growled at him.
Nero rolled his eyes at this. He knew this was going to be thrown in his face. When his friend left for the US to start over Nero had refused to help him bury his divorce proceeding from his employer. After his friend's bosses got wind of it they passed him over for another candidate that was more 'family-oriented. It had set him back almost 4 years until he was able to get promoted. "Look, I told you back then I was not high enough to bury those records. It was out of my hands." Nero could have gotten it done, but he wanted to put the screw to his friend for heading to the US and abandoning their agreement. "It's been 11 years, let it go."
"Fuck you, Nero." The man said back. “What the fuck do you want anyway?”
Nero rolled his eyes. “Look are you up on current events on what is going on in Japan right now?” He wanted to get this conversation back on track.
“No, I haven’t been paying attention to the events from Japan in years. Got a new wife and kids here in the States. Why do I can what happening over there?”
Nero sighed at him. “Look I just sent you an email. Just go watch the links. I’ll wait.” This was too important for him to get brushed off. This could be the best way to settle this problem.
“Fine, but this better be worth my time Nero.”
"I am sure it will," Nero responded as he waited. He heard the video playing in the background a few minutes later.
“What the Fuck Nero? How is this possible?”
Nero grinned as he got the man’s attention. “Since that first video, almost a year ago he has made the news for 3 Rescue Operations and two Villain battles including the attack today at UA.” Nero decided to push a bit harder. “The money for any information on that tech alone is worth your time. Apparently only he has access to it.”
The phone went silent for a few minutes. “I can’t just pick up and go to Japan at the drop of a hat Nero. I have too many things in motion at the moment.” The phone went silent again. “Earliest I can get there will be during the UA Sports Festival. As long as they are still holding it after this fiasco.”
Nero grinned. "They are, my brother's last act as Chairman was to sign an unbreakable contract for it." He was glad to see this was working out. "Let me know the day you arrive. Looking forward to working with you again Hisashi."
“Whatever Nero, I got to go my wife will be waking up soon. Just get me everything you got on my Ex-wife Inko and Izuku. Send me what you find. Also, I need you to find me, Judge. I need to try and get my parental rights back for him.”
Nero stopped for a minute. “Wait you signed away your Parental Rights?”
“Yes, during the divorce proceedings. Can you look for a Judge or not?”
Nero frowned at this development. "I'll see what I can do. No promises. You disowned your own son and gave your Ex-wife full custody. That is going to be an uphill battle" Nero pinched his nose. “I am under investigation right now so my options will be limited.
“No shit Nero. Just let me know if you can find one.” Hisashi hung up.
Nero smiled as he would have to start planning for his friend's arrival. He wanted to remove Izuku from the equation and His father might just be the answer he was looking for. He would have to have the old court record pulled to see what he was dealing with. He had also been able to see a sample of the Ooze and of the creature that was destroyed. The nerds in the lab were excited when he dropped the samples off to them. He hoped they would have the analysis done by morning.
Now he had to craft a believable alibi for why his son had missed school on the day a group of villains attack the USJ. He would also have to make sure his son keep his head down until the Sports Festival.
Hisashi pulled out a cigarette from his desk and lit it with his quirk. He started to replay the videos that Nero had sent him. He watched his Quirkless son save people and use technology so advanced that he could think of a few dozen buyers for even a small piece of that kind of technology. He had grown up with Neigo and Nero. They had been thick as thieves all through school and when they started their careers. He moved money for criminal organizations with the help of Nero keeping any investigation off his back.
He met Inko on a fluke during a bar brawl that resulted in him needing stitches and in a moment of weakness fell for her and eventually married her. It had been a good life. She gave him a son and it was all going well until he found out his son was Quirkless. After that, it was all over. He divorced her and left Japan after giving up his rights to Izuku without a fight. He heard from his Mistress in the US that she was pregnant with his child.
As soon as he arrived he married her and had two more children each one also had a version of his quirk. Now he needed to find his son's weak points and bend him to his will. How hard can it be to manipulate his own flesh and blood? He heard footsteps coming towards his office. He put out his cigarette and went to have breakfast with his family. He decided it would be good for his children to meet their half-brother in Japan if only to use them as leverage against his son if needed.
Everyone had a price. Everyone had a weak point to be exploited. It was about finding the right amount of money that was needed or where to put the screws to get what he wanted.
Mitsuki was exhausted as she was leaving her son’s room. she needed to stretch her legs and would be right back to sit with him. She needed a cup of coffee to wake up. She was not paying attention as she was bumped into someone. "Oh, dammit I am sorry I wasn't looking to where I was going." She looked up to see a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes. 'Hello, Handsome.' She thought herself.
“Not a problem ma’am.” The man said with a smile. “I am Toshinori Yagi. I am one of the staff members here and you are?” He extended a hand towards her.
"Mitsuki Bakugo." She smiled and took his hand. "My son was at the USJ and still hasn't woken up. I needed to get a breather and find some coffee." She looked him over and liked what she saw. It had been years since her husband passed away. She had put her son first and hadn't met anyone like him in years.
“Let me show you where the nearest coffee machine is Ms. Bakugo.” Toshinori offered. He could tell she was tired and stressed about her son. He decided to help her out. “Follow me please.”
Mitsuki followed him. “I hope I am not being an inconvenience. Mr. Yagi.” She told him as she was trying not to check him out. She was failing miserably.
"Call my Toshinori and it's no trouble at all," Toshinori said walking beside her.
“Call my Mitsuki then Toshinori. It's only fair." She said smiling at him. "I figure you would already be gone for the night."
Toshinori snorted a bit. “Well with today’s events I needed to finish up a few things before I can head home.” He turned a corner. “Here you go.” He reached into his pocket and pulled out some change and placed it in the machine. “Here, My treat. I insist”
Mitsuki gave him a genuine smile. “Thank you for this.” She selected her choice and waited as it started to dispense her choice. “That was really kind of you.”
Toshinori waved it off. “You are worried about your son. It is the least I can do for you.”
After she retrieved her drink she grabbed a napkin and wrote something on it. "Again, thank you for the coffee. I can find my way back to my son's room." She walked over and handed him the napkin. "Call me sometime Handsome." She gave him a wink and headed off to her son's room.
Toshinori looked at the number and looked to see Mitsuki walking away. “Young Bakugo’s Mother just gave me her number and flirted with me.” He looked at the number and decided to hold on to it. He would let her take care of her son and then call her to meet for coffee somewhere.
Mitsuki pulled out her phone and called Inko. It took a moment for her friend to answer the phone.
“Is everything alright Mitsuki?”
Mitsuki smiled at her best friend. “Yeah no change in Katsuki, but I had a question for you.”
“What is the question?”
“Do you know a staff member at UA named Toshinori Yagi?” She asked taking a sip of her coffee as she made her way down the hall.
The line went quiet for a moment. “Yes, we have met why do you ask Mitsuki?
"Well, he showed me to the coffee machine and bought me a cup of coffee. I was wondering if you knew if he was single." Mitsuki asked as she looked around to see if she was alone.
“I can honestly say he is single. Are you finally looking?
"I might," Mitsuki replied taking another sip of her coffee. "I just wanted to know if I was wasting my time. I gave him my number and flirted with him a little bit.”
“Of course, you did.”
"Mitsuki rolled her eyes. "Anyway, I am about back to Katsuki's room. I will call you later with any updates. And If you happen to have Toshinori's number can you send it to me? He may be too intimidated to call me." She had given her number out before and was stood up by men who found her to be a handful.
“I’ll see what I can do.”
“You are the best Inko. I’ll talk to you later bye.”
“Bye Mitsuki.”
She hung up the phone. She walked in and sat down by her son's bed. She decided to get comfortable for a long night. She was not going to leave his side until he woke up. She held his hand as she set her coffee down on a and ran her free hand through his hair. “Please wake up Kat.” She whispered as she started to cry. “Please.” She leaned back in her chair to rest her eyes
Mitsuki was just about to drift off in the chair when she heard Katsuki let out a groan. She was awake in an instant. “Kat. Honey are you ok?” She asked as he was groggy at first. He blinked a few times before looking at her. “Kat.”
Katsuki looked at her. "What are you doing here Hag?" he asked trying to remember what happened to him. "Where the Fuck am I?" He tried to get out of bed but was pushed back by his mother.
“Take it easy.” She said with a smile as her son was awake. “You were hurt at the USJ and they brought you here to get checked out.” She looked at the confused look on her face. “Do you remember what happened?”
Katsuki thought shaking his head. “No. I remember that portal bastard send me through one and I hit my head and then nothing." He tried to remember what happened after that, but he was drawing a blank. He brushed it off thinking it was nothing important.
“Let me go get Recovery Girl. Stay in that bed until I get back.” Mitsuki told him as she hurried out of the room.
After she left the room Katsuki's eyes started to glow purple again and a wicked smile appeared on his face. "I won't move from this spot." He said to the empty room as he laid back in the bed. He could feel the power running through his veins. He needed to get out of here and go test it out. He couldn't help but smile as he know this would help him become the next #1 after he mastered it. His eyes flickered for a few moments as he felt conflicted about where the power came from. Then just the that it was gone and his eyes were purple again.
His eyes returned to normal as Recovery Girl entered the room with his mother not far behind her. After a short examination, he was cleared to go home. His mother fussed over him the entire way home and after they got back to their apartment. After telling her for the umpteenth time that he was fine, she finally went to bed.
After waiting until she was sound asleep, He stood up and a magical circle appeared underneath his feet and vanished. He appeared in a small cave and followed the path until he saw the red sphere from before. Katsuki approached his Master and knelt before him. “You summoned me Master?” he asked keeping his head bowed.
“Yes, Young Night Wolf.” The Master said with a laugh. “It is time for your training. You will continue your life as normal until it is time for you to strike at your rival.” The room started to glow brighter as the Orb grew.
Katsuki flashed purple and was now Koragg. “Yes, Master.” He stood as his Master began his training.
He trained until early the next morning and Katsuki returned to his room to pretend that he had slept peacefully through the night.
Nezu let out an exhausted sigh as he walked around the campus with DECA fox as his walking companion. He reached one of his favorite spots near the woods on the edge of UA campus. He sat down on the bench as DECA sat near his feet. He pulled out a thermos and two cups from her briefcase. “I know you are there.” He said as he poured tea into both cups. “I watched you assist my students during the attack earlier today and I would like to talk if you are interested.”
After a few moments of silence, Zen-Aku walked out of the woods and sat beside Nezu on the bench. “Thank You.” He said taking a sip of the tea. “How did you know I was nearby?” he looked down at his drinking companion.
Nezu chuckled slightly. “I had DECA looking through the footage after the attack. I had her track your movements after you departed the USJ.” Nezu took a sip of tea. “You were also setting off my Predator instincts.”
Zen-Aku nodded his head. “I see.” He finished the tea and set the cup gently on the bench. “What did you want to talk about?”
Nezu set his cup down as well. “My name is Nezu. I wanted to know what your plans are now that you are here?”
Zen-Aku looked up at the sky. “Looking for my new purpose.” He turned to look at Nezu. "I was one a Duke Org, a powerful warrior that was feared by all. When I refused to bow to Master Org due to his dishonorable methods. I was imprisoned within a mask." Zen-Aku seemed lost in his memories. “When Merrick used the mask to defeat Master Org I attempted to use him to free myself. When I was imprisoned again for 3000 before I was revived.” He stood up and started to pace. “I fought the Power Ranger until they broke the curse and freed Merrick. I drifted somewhere for a while before I was returned again.” He looked to see the Nezu was giving him his full attention. "I felt a connection with Merrick from our time together and sought him out to settle things once and for so I could finally find peace."
Zen-Aku walked back to find his cup had been refilled with tea. “After my final battle with Merrick, I was at finally peace. Then I was returned to life again after the Rangers had defeated a revived Master Org. I sought out Merrick and travel around the world. I told him that we were both lone wolves looking for redemption.”
Nezu finished his tea. “What happened after your travels?”
“Merrick eventually went to be with Princess Shayla in the Animarium to marry her. I was starting to wander the planet on my own whenAnimus appeared before me and told me he had another journey for me where I could make a difference.” Zen-Aku explained as Nezu refilled his cup again. “Next thing I remember was waking up in your USJ after spotting Merrick’s replacement. Shoto I believe his name is.”
Nezu looked over the Wolf Org. “You wish to train him?” Nezu asked him.
"Yes," Zen-Aku replied. “I sense a connection to him similar to what I felt with my friend Merrick.” He looked up to the night's sky. “I want to honor my friend by training his successor.”
They sat quietly for several minutes before Nezu spoke. "Would you be willing to train others along with Young Shoto?" Nezu asked him.
“I would not be opposed to it as long as they don’t waste my time," Zen-Aku replied.
Nezu looked at him and extended his paw in your direction. "I believe was can come to an arrangement that will be beneficiate to both of us if you are interested."
Zen-Aku looked him over for a minute. “I’m listening.”
Izuku awoke a few hours later feeling better. After Recovery Girl told him he needed one more treatment he took a quick shower and kissed his daughters good night as his mother took them home for the night. Rumi found a comfortable spot nearby and refused to leave him alone even on UA campus. Ryukyu and Mt. Lady were escorting Inko and the girls home for the night as a precaution. He was healed one last time for the night. Rumi was protecting him inside his room. Lady Nagant had taken up a spot that gave her the best overwatch. He was protected for the night by two powerful Heroines.
Izuku awoke the next morning by Recovery Girl giving him a clean bill of health. He was eating breakfast with Rumi when the door open and Nezu walk in. “Good Morning Izuku, how are you feeling?” He asked his student.
"Much better sir," Izuku said setting down his fork. "I take you are still planning on the announcement this morning?" He knew what his mentor was here for.
"Yes, and I heard from Recover Girl that you were given a clean bill of health," Nezu said adjusting his stance. "I would like you to stand with me during the announcement."
Izuku nodded his head. “I am not sure that my uniform is clean at the moment.” His Hero suit had been taken to the Support course by Mei on her way out. “I’m not sure if it got cleaned or not.”
"That has already been taken care of," Nezu told him with a knowing smile. A moment later a case was teleporting in front of him. "A new uniform for this special day." Nezu gestured to the care. "Take a look."
Izuku slowly opened the case. He looked shocked at what was inside. Rumi moved over and took a look before she gave out a low whistle. "Wow, that is nice," Rumi told him.
Izuku reached in and pulled out a gold SPD Badge. “Thank you, sir.” He said placing it back into the case. “Let me go get changed and we can go.” Izuku got up to get a quick shower and get dressed.
“Miruko would you like to stay and watch the announcement?" Nezu offered her. He knew she had stayed the night to keep Izuku safe. He wanted to offer her a front-row seat to a Historic Moment
"I'd Like that Nezu," Miruko told him. She was interested to see what those two were going to do today.
Nezu smiled at her. “Excellent.”
Izuku came out of the bathroom dressed in a new Uniform. It was similar to his Hero Suit with the patches on his shoulder. On the back, the patch was replaced with a large SPD. His badge was now gold along with the SPD lapel on his chest. He had Lieutenants bars on his shoulders. His hair was pulled back into his usual ponytail. The Master Morpher was on his belt along with his Dragon Dagger and a pair of cuffs hanging on the left side of his belt. On his right, the Quantum Blaster was holstered. His boots were new and freshly polished.
Nezu grinned as Izuku walked towards them. “You are looking good Lieutenant Midoriya.” He said making to call his protégé by his new rank.
Miruko gave him a proper salute. "Looking good Lt." She said taking a picture and sending it to their mother. "I have to say I like to new uniform."
"Thanks, Miruko, Nezu," Izuku said looking over his new attire. He knew this had been planned but was not sure when they would put it to use. "I am ready when you are sir."
"Good now we have a few more people to meet this morning," Nezu told them both as he looked at his pocket watch. "Let go change the world."

Chapter Text
Izuku fell in step behind Nezu as they made their way to the Teachers' Lounge. He walked inside to see several familiar faces. Shouta was in the corner nursing his cup of coffee in his usual attire. He gave Izuku a subtle wave as when back to his drink. Miruko was nearby drinking a cup of coffee as well. She had gone ahead of them after Nezu had asked Izuku to wait in his office. He spotted Midnight talking with Pixie-Bob and the other members of the Wild Wild Pussycats. They were all dressed in SPD gray and black uniforms. The Pussycats still wore their trademark car ears, while Midnight wore her red glasses. Mandalay had Captain's bars on her collar and Midnight had Lieutenant bars on hers. Midnight sent him a wink as he walked in. She excused herself before walking over to hug him.
“Looking good Izuku.” Midnight said smiling at him. “You look so handsome. I think you are going to break some hearts later little brother.” She teased him as she moved her eyebrows suggestively.
Izuku rolled his eyes. "I highly doubt that Sis." He said crossing his arms. "I am happy with my girlfriends and would not trade them for the world."
“That is who I was talking about Izuku. You look so handsome in your uniform, they may have to keep you hidden so they can keep you all to themselves.” Midnight said resisting the urge to ruffle his hair when he scoffed at her comment. “Mom sent us all a message she will be here shortly with the girls. Yu and Ryuko will be escorting them here.”
Izuku nodded his head and looked to see Hound Dog standing off to the side reading a book. He was wearing an SPD Commander uniform. Izuku had seen it on the archived footage at the Command Center. He looked almost like a young Doggie Cruger with the Shadow Saber on his hip. Hound Dog looked up and gave Izuku a slight nod of his head before turning the page in his book.
Izuku spotted someone looking out the window with their back to him. He could tell it was a woman in a short sleeve version of the SPD Uniform. The woman was tall with a curvy build to her body. Her hair is what caught his attention since it was shoulder-length dark blue and pink hair. He remembered someone important to him from a long-time age with longer hair that color. Izuku watched as she turned around to face the room. Izuku gasped as she recognized her immediately. "Kai." He whispered. Izuku thought he was still dreaming. "Is that you?"
Kaina’s smile lit up the room. “Yes, it's me.” She replied as she opened her arms for a hug. “Can I get a hug from my favorite Green Bunny?” Kaina was nearly knocked to the ground when he rushed forward to hug her tightly. She could feel him shaking in her arms. “Still the same sweet boy I knew, full of love and quick to cry.” She looked to see the others in the room smiling at their little reunion.
"I knew you weren't a villain," Izuku said as his eyes shined with unshed tears. "I hated how they talked about you. They called you all kinds of names and it made me sick." He felt the tears running down his face. "How are you free?" He asked looking at her for answers. He looked into the public records of her case when he was older and saw that she had been given a Life Sentence for her crimes.
“Short version. I made helped Nezu get evidence against several people in exchange for my pardon.” She wiped the tears off Izuku face with her thumbs. “Now I want to hear about everything I missed over the years my bunny.” She was so happy to see him again after all these years. She flashed back to one of her favorite memories.
12 years ago
“Izuku! Kaina is here to watch you!” Inko called out as Kaina walked into the apartment with her go-bag on her shoulder. “Thank you for watching him for me last minute Kaina. I have to go through a refresher class at work.” Inko said as she made sure she had what she needed in her purse.
“It’s my pleasure Inko," Kaina said setting her bag on the floor. "I love watching Izuku and he is just so adorable that I can't pass up a chance to spend more time with him." She smiled as she heard the sounds of rapid footsteps coming towards her. Kaina turned as Izuku jumped towards her in a green bunny onesie. “There is my favorite Green Bunny.” She said gently as she hugged him close.
“KAI!” 3-year-old Izuku exclaimed excitedly as he hugged her tightly. “I missed you!” He said burrowing his head into her neck. He had been waiting anxiously for her to get here.
Kaina felt her heart swell like a balloon with happiness. He always made her feel better after a long day dealing with her handler. “I missed you too my Bunny.” She said kissing his cheek. “Now say goodbye to your Mom and then we can have some fun.” She sent Inko a wink.
Izuku hopped down and ran over to hug his mom. "Love you, Mommy." He hugged her tightly. His bunny ears flopped a bit with every time he moved.
"Love you too Izuku," Inko said grabbing her purse. "Be good for Kaina." She looked back to the other woman. "I left money for pizza on the counter and call my cell if you need me.”
Kaina laughed at her. “I make sure he’s fed and in bed before your get back.” She said shooing Inko off. “I got this go.”
Inko nodded and left for her class. “Alright, I will see you two later then.”
Kaina looked at Izuku who was bouncing up and down like a bunny with the ears flopping with each bounce. 'I will need some insulin to be around him if I am not careful.' She thought as she looked at the adorable sight in front of her.
“How about I order us a cheese pizza and we can watch some Hero Movies?” She asked knowing how much Izuku loved Hero Movies and made sure to have several kid-friendly ones for him to watch. "How does that sound?"
“Yeah! Pizza!” Izuku said hopping around the couch full of energy.
Kaina laughed out loud at his antics. She went over to the phone and ordered a pizza. She decided to play Hero with Izuku as her sidekick. Izuku was talking excitedly about the adventures of Lady Nagant and her Side-Kick Green Bunny. She was sure she would need that insulin shot with him being so adorable. After the pizza was delivered she got him a slice of pizza and something to drink and they got comfortable on the couch.
Izuku ate his pizza before snuggling into her side. Kaina wrapped an arm around him and loved every minute of it. By the end of the movie, Izuku was starting to drift off to sleep. He was snuggled tight against her side and she heard him mumble. "Mama Kai." Before he was out like a light with his little hand clinging to her shirt.
Kaina got emotional at being called Mama. She never really thought about settling down or having a family, while she was working as a Heroine for the HPSC, but this made her want to be a Mom. She kissed the top of his head. She loved Izuku like he was her own son. She sat there just enjoying their time together. After she knew he was sound asleep she got him into his bed and covered him with a blanket. “Sweet dreams my little Green Bunny.” She watched Izuku sleep a bit before she went to get things cleaned up.
A week later she was arrested and charged with multiple crimes.
Kaina smiled at that memory and would cherish it to her last moments on earth.
Izuku smiled at her “Mom will want to have you over ASAP. She missed you too.” He was about to say more when Nezu cleared. They both turned to face him.
"I am sorry to interrupt this touching reunion, but we need to head outside so we get the Press Conference started," Nezu said looking at his watch as he looked around the room. "This will be talked about for days to come and I want to thank you all for being here today." He gestured to the door. "Let's go change the world."
As they all started to trickle out of the room Kaina walked beside Izuku with an arm around his shoulder. “How are you feeling Izuku?” She asked as they started to head outside.
Izuku gave her a strained smile. “Just a bit nervous. There are a lot of reporters out there and I don’t want to make a fool out of myself.”
"I'll be there if you need me kiddo," Kaina told him as they were about to walk out the main entrance.
The press had been chomping at the bit since they witnessed the arrest of the Chairman and the other members of the UA board. Most of the news agencies had camped outside the gate overnight to make sure they could try and get a good spot to get up near a podium that had been constructed just for this announcement.
Theories were running the gambit from UA closing down to Nezu starting his plot to take over the world. One of the news agencies had discovered that Uraraka Construction Company had been hiring a massive amount of construction workers for a secret project. They were unable to find out anything about the supposed project, but they assumed that it had something to do with the announcement at UA. All of the news crews were looking at their watches as it got closer to the start time.
Chitose Kizuki was near the front of the crowd having sent an intern to hold her spot while she got her beauty sleep. She had everything in place for the possibility of an interview with Principal Nezu. She had watched the USJ with interest and was here on special orders from her leader. The boy Izuku Midoriya had been causing huge waves since he appeared out of nowhere. They had researched everything they could on him and his family. For now, they were just to keep an eye on him. She had tried to find any clue as to what was about to happen but was coming up empty. She checked her appearance in her compact once more when she heard the conversations on the crowd stop.
She looked over to see a small procession heading towards them She gestured for her cameraman to start filming. Nezu was the first on the stage and took his place at the podium with Shouta Aizawa standing to Nezu's right. Her jaw dropped as the infamous Lady Nagant walked on stage with the Wild Wild Pussycats, Midnight in matching uniforms and Hound Dog in a different, but similar uniform. Chitose focused on Izuku Midoriya's uniform that held rank on his collar. After a few moments of Nezu sorting through his papers he spoke.
Nezu cleared his throat. “Thank you all for coming here today. This will be a Press Conference to remember. I will be making our official statement on the USJ Attack." Nezu looked out to the reporters. "Yesterday roughly 200 villains that attacked the USJ have arrested and processed. The remaining attackers Shigaraki, Scorpina, and Kurogiri were the only ones to escape as I am sure you all witnessed yesterday." He flipped to the next piece of paper in his stack. "All information has been forwarded to HPSC and Law Enforcement Agencies." He smiled at the reporters. "I am happy to announce that UA security is being overhauled and upgraded to ensure the safety of all our students and staff." The reporters were scribbling away on their notepads. "Classes will resume Monday morning to allow our students time to rest and recover from their ordeal." He paused for a moment to allow the reporters to keep up with him.
"I will also be making a statement on the arrest of the Chairman and Board members yesterday." Nezu watched having to a suppressed grin as the reporter's eyes started to gleam like hungry wolves. "After an extensive investigation, it was discovered that they had been guilty of embezzling millions from UA over the last several years. At the moment Vice-Principal Aizawa and Myself will keep the school running until we can bring on replacement Board Members. This leads me to announce that we will be bringing on several new staff members to assist in improving our school and making sure our students are getting the best education possible to prepare them for the future as Heroes."
Nezu glanced over at Izuku and gave him a subtle nod as they prepared for the next part. “Now originally this Press Conference was announced for something completely different.” Nezu watched as the reporters were leaning in slightly. “Effective today there will be a new organization opening with the approval of the International Hero Commission. We are happy to announce the formation of SPD. It will be a Law Enforcement Organization that will allow for us to respond to situations like what happened at the USJ. It will also act like a Hero Agency that will allow for students to work with licensed Pro Heroes to get experience before they graduate from UA.”
Nezu gestured to Mandalay, who stepped forward with her teammates. “SPD will also respond to Rescue Operations from natural disasters to recovery efforts. The Wild Wild Pussycats are here as one of the first agencies to enter into an agreement to help us as not only Pro Heroes, but as Power Rangers as well.”
Nezu nodded his head for them to step back. "Now I am proud to announce that my student Lieutenant Izuku Midoriya the current leader of the Power Rangers will help train and lead his fellow students that were chosen at the USJ as the next generations of Heroes." Nezu watched as the reports looked shocked and some were making phone calls. "To answer the question that is on your minds right now. What is a Power Ranger?" Nezu gestured to Izuku who pulled his Morpher from his belt. "A Power Ranger is someone that has been chosen to wield a Morpher, like the one my student is holding in his hand to allow him access to greater abilities. You all witness those abilities by watching the news yesterday." Nezu raised his arms up. "SPD will allow Law Enforcement, Pro Heroes, and Power Rangers to bring a new Era of hope to Japan."
Nezu smiled at the crowd. "With a new organization comes with a need for a base of operations. SPD will be based here on UA campus." He turned to his student. "Lieutenant Midoriya, if you will."
Izuku smiled at his mentor's antics as he tapped his earpiece. "Now DECA."
A flash of bright light appeared behind the podium that caused most of the reporters and their camera crew to look away. When they looked back their jaws dropped as a massive building appeared out of nowhere. SPD Delta Base shined in the sunlight. Nezu gestured behind him "This will be SPD Headquarters. We will be opening up recruitment to all that are interested in joining our new organization. Applications are on our new website that went live at the start of this Press Conference. There is also a detailed breakdown of each division applicants might be interested in."
Nezu gestured for Hound Dog to step forward. "It is my pleasure to announce that I have selected Hound Dog as the First Commander of SPD. I know that he will make a great leader and help us get SPD operational."
The crowd was silent in shock that they had reporters were scrambling to write everything down. "That will be all for today. We will be releasing further updates later next week. Thank you for coming here today." Nezu told them as he bowed his head.
The reporters paused for a minute before they started yelling out questions. Nezu looked at his student and when Izuku nodded his head in approval Nezu raised his hand to silence them. “I will answer a few questions. Please keep it respectful.” He looked out in the crowd and pointed at a reporter.
“How powerful is your students Quirk if you are making him a Lieutenant in this new organization?” One of the reporters asked.
Izuku gave them a slight smile. “I’m Quirkless. No quirk just hard work and intense study under Principal Nezu.” He watched as the reporter dropped their pencil in shock. “Next question?”
The reporters murmured for a few moments before someone was able to think of another question. “Will you be working with the HPSC?”
Nezu cleared his throat "At this time we will be working with Local Law Enforcement, Pro Heroes, and the Justice System. At this time our goals are not in alignment with HPSC's current administration." He watched a few surprised looks come over their faces. "That may change in the future, but for now we shall operate without them."
Chitose Kizuki raised her hand “Is it wise for someone so young to have access to such powerful technology?” She watched the videos this morning before she came to UA. Access to those giant machines could change the world and her boss would reward her greatly for any information she could get.
"Anything can become dangerous without proper training," Izuku replied with a calm smile. "That is why we are here at UA to train and learn to properly use support items and any kind of equipment used in the field." He gestured toward Nezu. "We have already made lesson plans to make sure all Rangers, including myself, are properly trained to use their equipment." He watched the reporter write something down.
"How is a known murder like Lady Nagant part of your organization? Also, why is she not in prison?" Another reporter asked with a smirk on their face.
Nezu just smiled back at them. "After meeting with Lady Nagant, I contacted the IHC and had them investigate her trial transcripts and evidence that was presented during her trial." He paused for a moment to build up the tension. "It was discovered that the evidence had been tampered with and results were falsified on forensic reports after they were retested." Nezu enjoyed the shocked looks on the faces of every reporter in attendance. "It was after the investigation was completed that Lady Nagant was granted a full pardon and was offered a job as a Part-time instructor at UA and a Captains position within SPD."
He reveled in the fact this was a shot at the HPSC that they could not bury if they tried. "I will be releasing the findings of her investigation with IHC approval. An email has been seen to each new agency in attendance today with all of our findings."
Nezu looked around at the crowd as they were still trying to write everything down. "Next question?"
The reporters were still asking various questions when Nezu brought the Press Conference to a close. They all headed back inside and headed for the Teacher Lounge. Izuku let out a sigh of relief as he walked inside the Lounge with everyone. He was grateful that it was over and he could finally go home and relax with his family.
He was brought out of his musings by Eri and Raphtalia as they ran towards him. “Papa!” They cried together. He knelt down and scooped them up quickly.
Raphtalia's tail wagged excitedly "You looked so cool Papa! Grandma let us watch you on TV." She was grinning brightly at him.
"Papa looked cool," Eri said burying her head into his shoulder to hide her face. She had missed him while getting ready this morning and hugged him tightly.
Izuku laughed as he placed a kiss on both of their foreheads. "Thanks, girls. That means a lot coming you my amazing daughters." He looked to see the confused look on Kaina's face. "I am sure you have questions."
Kaina slowly nodded her head with a confused look on her face. “They called you Papa. I am sure you are there is a bit of a story behind that kiddo.” She looked over to see Inko laughing “You could have warned me last night Inko.”
"Where would fun in that be Kaina," Inko said with a big grin on her face. She could see Midnight and Miruko snickering together. "They are my granddaughter. They adopted Izuku as their father." She beamed with motherly pride.
Izuku waited until he got Kaina's attention. "Girls I want to introduce you to Kaina. She used to babysit me when I was little." Both girls looked at the woman with curious eyes. "Kaina, this is Eri and Raphtalia Midoriya. My daughters."
Raphtalia waved excitedly at her. “Hi!” She said excitedly.
Eri gave her a shy wave. “Hi.” She said quietly before immediately burrowing her head into Izuku's chest.
Kaina walked over giving them both a small wave. "You are both so adorable." She said with a smile. Raphtalia held out her arm wanting to be picked up. Kaina complied and enjoyed getting a hug from the little Tanuki. Raphtalia talked excitedly to her and asked a bunch of different questions about what her Papa was like when he was little. Eri looked at her curious about it as well.
Miruko elbowed Midnight lightly. “Another one is about to fall under their spell of cuteness.” She said with a small grin on her face.
Midnight nodded her head. “No doubt. Those girls are charmers.” She looked over to see Pixie-Bob cooing over them. “Guess I should introduce them to her.” Her girlfriend has seen pictures of them on her phone and had been wanting to meet them ever since. Pixie-bob pulled her towards the adorable duo.“
Mt. Lady snickered. "Careful now Sis. You don't want Pixie-Bob get baby fever from them." She laughed harder when Midnight made a rude gesture with her hand after making sure the girls weren't looking. Miruko busted out laughing and gave Mt. Lady a thumbs up.
Ryukyu rolled her eyes. “Now, now. Let’s go spend some time with our nieces and brother.” She said pushing them all towards them.
Nezu watched from a distance as the others in the room went to talk with Izuku and his daughters. He watched as Hound Dog and Shouta were discreetly making their way out of the room. He decided to do the same he left the room and decided to give them some privacy. He had much to do and decided it was time to start making several calls. After he entered his office and got comfortable behind his desk deciding on who to call first. He dialed the first number on the list and waited.
“Hello?”
Nezu steepled his hands. "Hello, Melina Hatsume? I hear you are looking for a job?"
“Uh, I am actually looking. I just sent out my resume a little bit ago.”
"Excellent. I have a position available that you are more than qualified for. Would you care to discuss your new job with me at my office?" Nezu asked knowing what her answer would be.
The phone was silent for a few moments. “I can be there in an hour.”
Nezu grinned. “I look forward to your arrival. Mrs. Hatsume.”
Lieutenant Hakugare blinked a few times before she looked at Detective Naomasa, who was standing beside her doing the same thing. “Can you repeat that sir?” Sara asked as she was dumbfounded at his statement.
Deputy Chief Shin frowned at her. "I was very clear on my instructions Lieutenant.” He said standing a bit taller as he spoke. "You are ordered to cease your investigation into HSPC Officer Nero Monoma and turn over all information you have found to my assistant by the end of the day." He dusted a piece of lint from his uniform. “The President of the HSPC and Police Commissioner have agreed that it should be handled in-house by the HSPC."
Lieutenant Hakugare stood up quickly. "Sir, I have boxes of information that was sent from the IHC that shows a history of countless incidents of Monoma breaking the law or accepting bribes." She looked at her superior with an incredulous look. "His own brother was arrested for countless crimes yesterday." She gestured to her detective. "We can bring him in on those charges and have him arrested today!" She could not believe that she was being ordered to drop this investigation.
"The Order stands Lieutenant." Deputy Chief Shin said in an authoritative tone. He took a step closer to her desk in front of him. "You are done with this investigation and if you try to continue against orders, then I will have no choice then to suspend and have you dismissed from the force." He narrowed his eyes at the Lieutenant. "Do you understand me?"
Lieutenant Hakugare shook her head. "I swore to uphold the law and what you want me to do is let a corrupt official stay in power." She looked up at her superior before taking her badge off her uniform. "I resign." She placed her badge and gun on the desk. "I will have my office cleared out by the end of the day."
Deputy Chief Shin looked shocked by her action. “You are throwing away your career for this?” He watched as she started to gather up her things on her desk. “All you have to do is look the other way on this case. This is how politics work in the real world.”
Sarah looked at him with a disgusted look. "I would rather resign with honor than to serve in disgrace." She glared at her former superior. "Find another lackey." She went back to gathering up her things.
Naomasa looked at his badge for a moment before he placed it and his gun on the desk as well. “I resign as well Sir. I can’t work here with if we are allowing someone this corrupt to stay in office.” He walked out of the office and started packing up his things.
Deputy Chief Shin was stunned at the sudden resignations of one of his best Lieutenants and Detectives. It made no sense to him. Twenty minutes later 6 more officers handed in their badges and left the room to clean out their lockers. He was not looking forward to having to explain this to his superiors.
Sarah packed the last box into her car as watched Naomasa doing the same. "You know, you didn't have to resign with me." She said looking at her longtime friend. "You could have stayed and been promoted."
Naomasa smirked at her and shook his head. “No way Boss.” He said closing the passenger door of his car “I have no interest working under someone that would agree with that order to keep that creep in power.” He leaned against his car ”Now what Sarah?”
Sarah thought for a minute and took out a business card from her pocket. “I hear SPD is hiring.” She smiled at her friend. “I think we should try there first.”
Naomasa nodded his head. “Give him a call. I’ll follow your lead.”
Sarah called and was asked by Nezu for both of them to come to see him at his Office. They both headed off to UA for a meeting.
Inko was watching as everyone seemed to be enjoying their time together. Pixie-Bob and Kaina were fussing over Eri and Raphtalia, much to their delight. She looked at her watch. “How about we take this back to our place and we can all relax and Kaina can catch up with Izuku and I.”
“That sounds good to me.” Midnight said looking at Pixie-Bob, who gave her thumbs up. “Sounds good to us.”
Miruko gave thumbs up. “I got no plans today. Count me in.”
"I shall attend as well," Ryukyu said smiling at a waving Eri. "It has been some time since I got to relax with family."
Mt. Lady was smiling. “Of definitely count me in on this. I need more family time.”
Izuku smiled at his family. “Let’s get home get this family time started." He watched as his daughter's eyes lit up with excitement. They started talking so fast that only Izuku was able to understand them. “We’ll find a movie or something to watch.”
Yeah!” Eri and Raphtalia said together before they gave each other a high-five.
Kaina could not help but smile. “These two are incredibly adorable. Think Recovery Girl will give us some insulin before we leave? I think I may need it.”
“Same here!” Pixie-Bob said before letting out a squeal.
Inko pulled out her phone and opened up the group chat she had helped create the day before with the other mothers.

Inko put away her phone as she guided Kaina to her car as Izuku walked behind them. Kaina sat in the passenger seat. Izuku took the middle in the back seat with a daughter on each side of him. As they headed back to the apartment.
Eri pulled a paper of her backpack. “Here Papa I drew this for you.” She smiled brightly as she handed it to him. The picture was a drawing of Izuku with both Eri and Raphtalia beside him with all his girlfriends around them. On the edge were his sisters and his mom. It was titled, My Family. She signed it Eri Midoriya.
Izuku smiled at her. “This is amazing Eri. I love it.” He placed a kiss on her head next to her horn. "I will hang it up when we get home." Eri latched onto him and Raphtalia hugged him from the other side. "Do you have a picture for me too Raphtalia?"
She nodded her head excitedly. "Yeah, I make on too!" Raphtalia dug into her bad and showed him her page. It was similar to Eris, but they were in their rangers forms minus the girls and his Mom.
“Yours is good too," Izuku said kissing the top of Raphtalia's head. "I’ll hang it up as well.”
Kaina elbowed Inko gently. “Did you get that insulin? I think I need some right now.”
Inko started to giggle a this. "Well, Izuku is a really sweet boy."
"I can see that," Kaina replied as she glanced back at him dotting on his daughters. "His girlfriend is going to be one very lucky girl when he finds her.”
Inko just smiled at this. ‘I thinkI’ll leave that as a surprise for later.’ She thought to herself.
As they arrived at the apartment Izuku had the girls to take their backpacks to their room. They hurried off in that direction. Kaina smiled as she walked into the apartment. It had not changed much over the years, but she walked over to look at the new pictures on the wall. She looked at all the years she missed sitting in Tartarus. She noticed Izuku's lack of smile in many of them. She made a note to ask about it later. She was broken out of her musing as she turned to see Izuku put the girl's pictures on the fridge. She looked to see Inko was watching them with a big smile.
"Like I said he is a good boy," Kaina said as she moved to stand next to Inko.
Inko nodded her head. "Yes, he is." She turned to face Kaina. "Any food preferences? I have Rumi and Ryuko stopping at the store to get some groceries."
Kaina shrugged her shoulders. “As long as it’s not prison food, I will eat almost anything.” She savored her meals since she got out of prison and knew that if Inko was getting groceries then she was making a home-cooked meal. She had dreamed of Inko cooking for years and was looking forward to it.
Inko smirked at that. “One homecooked meal coming up Kaina.” She told Kaina as she went to get a few things ready in the kitchen. She had a lot of food to make and not a lot of time to make it.
Yu arrived first dropping off a few things in the kitchen before she went to sit with Izuku in the living room and play with her nieces. The sounds of laughter fill the apartment as Izuku and Yu ticked Eri and Raphtalia. Inko just smiled at that laughter. Kaina did the same thing watching it from the kitchen.
Next to arrive were Nemuri and Ryu. They dropped off the dessert and joined in on the fun.
“Hey, Izuku," Nemuri said smiling at her nieces. "I want to introduce you to my girlfriend Ryu." She gestured for Ryu to step forward. “I wanted you to know before you heard it from anyone else.”
Izuku smiled at his sister. "Thanks. I am happy for you Nemuri." He turned to face Ryu. "Nice to meet under better circumstances." He offered a hand in her direction.
Ryu nodded her head and shook his hand. “Same here Izuku. Looking forward to working together again.”
Izuku nodded his head. “I’m looking forward to that as well.” He grinned back at her “Now I get why you wanted me to tell Nemuri you said hi that day.”
Ryu started laughing as Nemuri groaned. "Yep. I wanted to have a bit of fun." She threw her arm around Nemuri's neck. "I wish I could have seen the look on her face.”
Izuku looked Ryu straight in the eye. "All I ask is that you don't hurt my sister." His expression hardened slightly. "I will hunt you down if you do. Are we clear on that?" He asked her giving her a stern look.
"Crystal," Ryu said matching his gaze unflinching. She could respect him getting protective of his family. “I will take good care of her. You have my word as a Heroine.”
Izuku smiled at her. “Good. Now would you like to meet my daughters?” He asked with a kind expression on his face. When she nodded her head ‘yes’ excitedly, Izuku gestured for her to follow. “These are my daughters Eri and Raphtalia.”
Ryu knelt down in front of them. "Hi, cuties! I have been looking forward to meeting you both for a while.” She offered a hand to each of them. “You can call my Ryu.”
Raphtalia was quick to shake her hand and start talking excitedly with her. Eri was cautious at first, but slowly got close to Ryu and talked with her. Soon laughter filled the room again as Yu, Ryu, and Nemuri had the girls laughing that they ran to Izuku for safety.
Rumi and Ryuko arrived with the groceries and brought them to Inko who started cooking immediately. Ryuko decided to help in the kitchen as she enjoyed cooking as a way to relax. Soon the laughter increased from the living room as Rumi joined in on the fun.
Raphtalia was squealing with delight as Rumi sat on the floor tossing her up in the air and catching her. Izuku was trying not to hover around them, but he was worried like a good dad.
Eri ended up cuddling in between Nemuri and Ryu and asked them questions about being heroes. They cooed at her being so adorable and soon had her giggling with tickles and hugs.
Izuku watched his daughters playing happily with their Aunts. He smiled as he leaned against the wall listening to their laughter. He was glad that these two were getting the love and affection that they both deserved. He would do anything to keep them smiling and happy. He was content to watch them when he felt someone tap his arm. He turned to see Kaina standing beside him “Hey Kai.” He said glancing back over at his daughters.
Kaina smirked at him “Fatherhood suits you.” She said gesturing to him leaning against the wall. “Watching them. Making sure they are ok." Her smirk shifted to a mischievous grin. "I feel sorry for anyone who wants to date them when they get older." She started chuckling when she saw Izuku shuddered at that thought.
Izuku shook his head. "I don't want to think about that anytime soon." He said looking at his girls. "Let me enjoy them while they are like this." He would have to start planning for that day now. He looked back at Kaina. "Sorry, we haven't got to talk much today."
Kaina snorted at him and waved him off. "I get it kiddo." She threw an arm around his shoulder. "While the girls are being entertained, why do we catch up a bit." She led him to the kitchen table. "Tell me what I missed. I've done a bit of research since I got out, but I want to hear it from you."
Izuku looked over to see his Mom had been listening to them. She gave him a nod and went back to cooking. “Ok, well when I was 4 I was diagnosed as Quirkless.” He filled her in on everything from his Father leaving to when he received his Morpher. She pulled him into an almost painful hug before he could tell her about current events.
"I am so sorry Bunny." She said tears running down her face. Kaina wished she had been there to look after him and protect him from the bullies. Wished she had protected him from those so-called teachers. "I should have been here to protect you." Kaina was there when the day he was born and held him in her arms when Inko needed to rest.
Izuku patted her on the back. “It made me who I am today.” He said pulling back a bit. "I got a big family and two daughters to look after." Izuku gave her his trademark smile. "I wouldn't trade it for all the money or power in the world." He wiped away her tears. "Come on let’s go joining in on the fun until the food is ready.”
Kaina grinned at this. “Sounds good to me.” She followed Izuku into the living room and joined in on the fun.
Inko smiled as she heard the laughter increase once again and looked at the food on the stove. It was almost ready. She had been talking with Ryuko about various topics when Inko’s phone chimed. She wiped her hands before looking at the message. She grinned as she knew who was about to arrive at the apartment.
Izuku looked at the door after someone started knocking excitedly. Izuku got up to answer the door. He opened the door and was surprised to see all of his girlfriends standing in the hall holding duffle bags and rolled up futons. "Hey, this is a surprise.” He remarked as he moved out of the doorway. "Come on in everyone.”
Momo looked at him confused. “Our Moms planned to a weekend sleepover.” She tilted her head slightly. “Didn’t your Mom tell you?” She asked set her things out of the way and smiled as Eri ran over to greet everyone.
Izuku looked at his mother and saw her laughing. "I can see she wanted to surprise me. Well, I am glad to see you all let's find a place to set your stuff down.” After finding a place in the corner of the living room for their things. Izuku looked to see Kaina walk into the room.
“Nice to see your classmates coming to spend time with you.” Kaina said looking over the girls one by one. “Which one of these lovely ladies is your girlfriend?” She was so focused on the girls that she failed to see the smirks from Inko or the others in the apartment. Kaina watched as Izuku got a bit bashful before looking at the group of girls. She figured it was the girl tall ravenette or the adorable girl with the horns.
Raphtalia ran up with a big smile on her face. "They are all our Mama's!" She said pointing to Eri who was nodding her head and herself. Rumi and Yu started laughing out loud from the couch.
Ryu looked surprised as Nemuri filled her in while giggling.
Kaina blink several times before looking back to see Inko doubled over laughing. "Well, I look forward to getting to know each of you.” She grew serious for a moment sending a chill down their spines. "Hurt my Green Bunny and I will be paying you a visit. Understand?" When they nodded quickly she relaxed and smiled at them. "Glad we have an understanding."
Kyoka moved over and pulled Izuku into a kiss. “Glad to see out of the hospital bed.” She said placing a hand on his face.
“Hey! No hogging the boyfriend!” Mina said hurrying over to steal a kiss from him.
Each of the girls got their kiss from him and were about to ask what to do next when Inko called them all for lunch. The table was covered in more than enough food for everyone. Soon the kitchen was filled with conversation and comradery. Mina and Toru were asking for details about how Nemuri and Ryu started dating. Momo was talking with Kaina about her time as a Pro. Ryuko was talking with Ochako about how her quirked worked. Pony and Rumi were talking about different training methods Setsuna was entertaining Eri and Raphtalia with her antics
After the meal came to an end Inko excused herself for a moment.
“What now?” Ochako asked as she helped Izuku clear the table. “Movies or games?” She placed the dishes in the as Izuku started washing them.
“I wouldn’t mind playinga game." Pony said to bring another stack of dishes to the sink.
Inko came back into the room with a stack of books. "I can show you girls his baby pictures if you like."
Izuku spun horrified and looked at her “Mom, No!”
Mom, Yes!” Inko replied with a Cheshire grin. “I think your daughters need to see how adorable you were younger and it’s a bonus that your girlfriends get to see them well.”
Izuku looked to see his girlfriends scrambling to sit next to Inko on the couch as she opened the first book. He looked to his sisters for support and found they were alongside everyone else. Eri and Raphtalia were sitting on each side of Inko. Even Kaina and Ryu were looking at them. Knowing the battle was lost he went back to washing the dishing trying his best to ignore the cooing and squeals coming from the couch.
"Here is one where he is was playing Hero in his adorable All Might onesie," Inko said showing them with motherly pride. "He loved that would wear it all the time."
Izuku had finished the dishes and was sitting in a chair with his head in his hands and his face a bright red. Mei was currently sitting on his lap to comfort him as she looked at the pictures with her quirk. Everyone minus Izuku seemed to be enjoying his baby pictures. Eri and Raphtalia were loving every minute of it.
Kaina pointed at a picture in the book. "Here is my favorite. She had a big smile on her face. "I gave him the bunny outfit and he would wear it every time I came to visit him."
Setsuna looked at him. “Wow talk about adorable Izu.” She said looking at the picture. “Can I get a copy of this?”
Izuku's eyes went wide. "Please no," he begged.
Inko reached into her pocket and pulled out small stack of pictures. “Here.” She said holding them out for them to take one.
Eri looked at the picture of her Papa. She reached over to tap Momo on the leg.
Momo smiled at her. "Yes, sweetie?" She asked the small unicorn.
Eri seemed to hesitate for a moment. “C-Can you make me a onesie?” She blushed red looked down at the floor. “It looks comfortable.”
Everyone in the room looked at her with a smile. Momo created measuring tape "Let me get your measurements, Sweetie." Momo told her as she stood up. After getting Eri’s measurements she created a white onesie. "All done."
Eri put it on and zipped it up. She pulled the hood up and her horn fit just perfectly. She looked like a pure white unicorn with a matching tail. Her feet looked like hooves. "How do I look?" Eri asked shyly.
Everyone cooed at the adorable sight in front of them Ochako rushed forward and picked her up in one swift movement. “OMG! You are so adorable!” She exclaimed hugging the unicorn tight.
"Mama Momo, can I have one too?" Raphtalia asked giving her the puppy dog eyes.
Momo laughed at his. "Alright, come let me measure you." She said waving the girl to come to her. After getting the measurements and created a brown onesie to hand to Raphtalia. "All Done."
"Thank you!" Raphtalia said quickly before putting it on. It had a hole to allow her tail to fit through and zipped it up. She pulled the hood up and was happy to see it had a hole for her ears. "It's so soft!" She looked like an actual Tanuki.
Raphtalia was swarmed by Setsuna, Mina, and Toru that were hugging her and telling her how adorable she is. Izuku made sure to take pictures of them.
Eri looked over at Izuku. "Papa you need one too. That way we can be comfy together.” She said with a bright smile on her face. Ochako was smiling alongside her as she hugged the girl tighter.
Izuku looked at his daughter's smiles and their eyes were shining with joy. He chuckled and nodded his head. "All right." He looked over at Momo. "I hate to ask, but can you-“ Izuku was interrupted when he was pulled out of his chair by Mei.
Mei wrote down his measurements and quickly handed them to Momo. “Here you go. She said grinning. “I made his suit so, these are his latest measurements.”
As Momo was about to get started Kaina moved to whisper something in her ear. Kyoka and Rumi started snickering at this. A minute later Izuku was handed a green bundle.
He pulled it on and was in looked like a large green bunny. It looked identical to the one he wore as a child. “I should have seen this coming.” He said looking at them all taking pictures. Eri and Raphtalia came over to him excitedly. He picked them up and posed for a few pictures.
Nemuri tapped Inko on the shoulder. “Do you have any insulin? I think I am about to overdose on all of this cuteness.”
"I second that," Ryu said cooing at the three of them.
“Agreed.” Yu said resisting the urge to hug them all.
Raphtalia took a thinking pose. “Wait our Mama’s need some too. That way we can have a cuddle pile!” She said getting excited at that.
Eri nodded her head alongside her. "Yeah, I want to cuddle with our Mama's!"
Setsuna looked over at Momo. “Are you able to make one for each of us?” She knew exactly what she wanted.
Momo thought for a moment. “I can, but I will need more food to replace my lipids.” She created a pen and paper. “Let get everyone’s measurements along with what you want it to look like and I will get to work."
A half-hour and a short snack break later from Momo and they were finished. While she was working they decided to set up their futons in front of the TV. Rumi moved the furniture around to accommodate the futons.
Ochako wore a brown chipmunk with a striped tail. Setsuna went with agreen T-Rex with a scale pattern. Mina went with a pink leopard that looked similar to her hero costume. Toru had asked for a rainbow-colored lizard with a hole for her tail. Momo made a black cat for herself with the ears and white near the tip of its tail. Jirou flushed as she chose a purple bunny with a fluffy whitetail. She was able to insert her jacks into the bunny hears to move them. Pony chose a gray horse outfit with a cover for her hooves and an opening for her tail and horns. Mei picked Golden Retriever and was smiling as she put it on moving her head to make the years flop.
After everyone was dressed up Raphtalia and Eri started pulling them onto the futons. Soon it was one of the most adorable sights to behold. Everyone was cuddled around the Unicorn and Tanuki. They were all smiling and laughing together.
Yu, Nemuri, and Ryu had to sit down from the cuteness overload in front of them. Rumi had to look away to prevent herself from squealing at the adorable sight. She had an image to maintain after all. Ryuko had to hold on to Inko to keep from fainting.
"Oh god," Kaina said placing a hand on the wall. "Inko call an ambulance, please. I am about to go into a diabetic shock.” She started laughing as Inko gave her a wink.
Mina looked at Raphtalia and Eri. “You two wanna pick a movie for us to watch together?”
“Yes!” They said together scrambling to go pick one.
Rumi and Ryuko excused themselves as they had to patrol the next day and told Izuku to watch the Hero New in the morning for a special announcement. They hugged everyone before they left.
Midnight and Ryu were the next to leave wanting to go out on a date. They said their goodbyes and left for the night.
Yu stayed a bit longer, before heading out for the night. She was not on patrol the next day and promised to swing by Saturday morning.
Kaina and Inko got comfortable on the couch as Eri returned first with a movie in hand. Raphtalia came back a moment later pouting at her getting back first. “How about we watch Eri’s movie first and then we can watch your Raphtalia?” Inko offered to her granddaughter.
Raphtalia nodded her head as she went to go back to cuddle with her parents. Eri joined after Mei helped her put her movie in. She had chosen the movie Encanto which was a new edition to their collection.
Soon everyone was singing along with the movie. Mina and Setsuna got up and dance with Eri and Raphtalia as they started moving to the music. Kyoka was singing along and Toru joined in singing in perfect pitch harmony. By the end of the movie, everyone was in a great mood. As it was getting close to dinner They agreed on getting pizza and it was a battle between Momo, Setsuna, and Izuku on who was paying. Eventually, Izuku surrendered and let Momo pay as Setsuna called dibs on paying next time.
Raphtalia picked the movie Cars and got comfortable again. Kaina had to leave before the second movie started to get some work done. She promised to meet Inko tomorrow night to join her for Girl's night out. She told her goodbyes and left.
Inko was the next to bow out for the night. “I’m going to go lay down. I didn’t sleep well after everything that happened yesterday.” She gave the mall a tired smile.
Izuku got up and went over to hug his Mom. “I am so sorry.”
“You fine baby. I will always be worried about you.” Inko told him with a proud smile. “I will see you in the morning.” She patted her cheek. “Behave with your girlfriends.”
“Mom.” Izuku groaned at her tease. He looked back to see Kyoka smirking at him.
Inko kissed her son's cheek and went to her bedroom.
He went back to the cuddle pile and was snuggled by his daughters and girlfriends. For the rest of the movie, they were all content being together.
Eri and Raphtalia had drifted off near the end of the movie they picked. Ochako gently scooped Eri up and Setsuna did the same with Raphtalia. He opened the bedroom door and watched with a smile as Ochako and Setsuna got each girl into their bed. Each girl hugged one of their dolls to their chests as they were covered with a blanket.
Izuku quietly closed the door to the girl's bedroom. He gestured for Ochako and Setsuna to follow him back to the living room.
As they entered the living room the movie had gone off and several movies were placed in front of them as they were trying to debate on what to watch next. They stopped when Izuku, Ochako, and Setsuna returned.
“The girls ok?” Mei asked holding a sci-fi movie in her hand.
Izuku nodded. “yeah, they are sound asleep.” He replied sitting down looking over the movies. “Whose turn is it to pick?”
Kyoka shrugged. “we haven’t chosen yet." She said twirling a girl with one finger. She held one of her favorite musicals in the other hand. "Waited on you guys to get back."
Momoand Toru were each holding a different romantic movie. “How do we choose?” Momo asked holding the movie to her chest.
“Rock-Paper-Scissors?” Mina suggested she was holding the movie Alien as if it was the Holy Grail.
Toru placed her movie down as she took a thinking pose. "Draw straws?" She offered looking at the others.
Setsuna had picked up Jurassic Park held it out for everyone. “Well, we could shuffle the movies and pick at random?”
Pony held an anime movie. “That way no one gets their feelings hurt. I like it.” She agreed.
Ochako brought out an action move from her bag. “That should work. We have all weekend to pick our movies.”
Izuku went to his room and return with a handful of 6-sided dice. "Here we roll the dice and the biggest number gets first pick. Then we work our way down. Ties will have a roll-off." Everyone agreed and they started rolling dice. After the dice were all rolled and the list looked like this.
Momo
Kyoka
Ochako
Mei
Pony
Toru
Izuku
Mina
Setsuna
Momo happily put her movie in and got comfortable next to Izuku. “This is one of my favorite movies. I want to cuddle with you while we watch it.” She put her head on his shoulder and let out a content sigh.
Setsuna and Mina were grumbling a bit about their lack of luck with the dice. "Hey, I want some loving too Izuku," Setsuna called out with Mina nodding her head in agreement.
Izuku smiled and switched Morpher and created his clones again. The girls hurried over to cuddle. Mina and Toru shared a clone as the others grabbed one each.
As they watched the movie Momo start drawing hearts on his hand with her thumb. She felt Izuku relax at her ministrations. She glance around to see the other girls cuddled with their Izuku clones showing him simple gestures as a show of their affection.
As the movie ended, Izuku heard the sound of crying and got up to find Raphtalia bringing Eri into the living room tears running down her face as she sobbed. Eri was hugging Fire Heart tightly to her chest. Izuku was up and in front of her in a flash. “Eri, honey. What wrong?” Izuku asked looking her over quickly before pulling her into a hug. His clones vanished as he tended to Eri.
"She had a nightmare," Raphtalia said wiping the sleep from her eyes. She walked over and hugged her sister tightly. “I brought her because she was asking for you, Papa.”
“It’s ok Eri because your papa her here for you.” He said getting a smile from the little unicorn. She started to calm down as she wrapped her arms around him. “Do you want to talk about your bad dream?” He asked her gently. She just hugged him tighter. “Ok. You can tell me when you are ready.”
Fire Heart looked up at Izuku. ‘Comfort her. I will tell you about it in the morning.’
Izuku noticed a new unicorn pendant around her neck and nodded his head slightly at the tiny dragon. He looked back to see his girlfriends were worried about the little unicorn. Momo made a gesture for him to bring her to them “Come and cuddle with you Mama’s Eri. You are joining us as well Raphtalia.” The Tanuki ran ahead as Izuku carried Eri over to their makeshift bed on the floor.
The girls moved the pillows around and shifted them so that Eri and Raphtalia with surrounded by their parents. Eri was latched on the Izuku right side and Ochako came to lay beside her. Fire heart had curled up on Eris lap. Raphtalia was on his left with Setsuna holding her close. As the girls started to settle back down a tired Raphtalia looked at Kyoka. “Mama Kyo, can you sing us a song? Pretty please?”
Kyoka gave her a gentle smile “I can do that sweetie.” She started thinking of what to sing when she remembered having a nightmare at their age and the song her Mom sang to help her get back to sleep.
“Come stop your crying
It will be alright
Just take my hand
Hold it tight
I will protect you
From all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry”
Eri and Raphtalia smiled as their eyes started to get heavy. Momo and Pony covered them both with a blanket, cooing at the adorable sight.
“For one so small
You seem so strong
My arms will hold you
Keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here don't you cry”
Izuku and the other girls were swaying slightly to her singing such a lovely song. They looked down to see they were on the edge of falling back to sleep. They each started to plant a motherly kiss on their foreheads.
“'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart
Always
Always”
Kyoka move over slowly and placed a kiss on each of her daughter's cheeks. She smiled as they were sleeping peacefully with a smile on their faces. She leaned forward and kissed Izuku tenderly. “They little angels.”
"That was beautiful Kyoka," Izuku whispered looking at his sleeping daughters before looking at his girlfriends. “Thank you all for coming here tonight. I needed this.” He told them as he felt happy and light.
Mei carefully moved over and kissed him. "It was a lot of fun Zuzu." She loved being surrounded by people that cared for her. “I think we all needed this.”
Pony was beaming as she moved forward to get her kiss. “I’m glad you’re ok. I was worried about you.”
Momo took a picture of the sleeping duo before taking a quick kiss from Izuku. "They are in good hands with so many people that care for them." She would move mountains and burn the world to keep them safe.
Toru shift a slight pink as she moved forward to get her kiss. “I wanted to get another kiss before bed. I think they are here sleeping here with us tonight.” She got her skin to change back to normal as her tail picked up a stuffed toy and placed it near Eri. She looked over the sleeping duo with a smile.
"I don't have the heart to move them," Izuku said as Raphtalia shifted a bit closer to him. Eri had a tight grip on his shirt.
Mina replaced Toru as she placed a hand on each side of his face. “You are such an incredible Dad to these girls. You make falling for you so easy.” She pulled him into a kiss before leaning back. “Never change Izuku.”
"She had a point," Setsuna said separating her head from the body and floated over to plant a kiss on Izuku before floating in front of him. "Just keep being this loveable. That is all we can ask for you.”
Izuku was about to say something when Ochako turn his head for her kiss. She held him in place for almost 30 seconds. “Let us take care of you Izuku. Just let us comfort you for a change.” She gently caressed his face.
Izuku looked at each of them and bowed his head. “Thank you, girls, for everything.” He felt happy tears run down his face. This was what he dreamed about all his life. A large family with children that cared for him and someday be married to the love of his life. He realized something as they moved closer to cuddle him and their daughters. That he loved all of them with all his heart. They were each special and unique in their own ways. He got comfortable as they pulled the blankets close and started to drift off to sleep.
He would tell them soon, but for tonight he felt at peace as he drifted off to sleep dreaming about lots of children running around calling him Papa. He looked around to see his children taking their looks from both of their parents and each of his girlfriends had a wedding ring on their left hand smiling brightly at him.
Scorpina had arrived at her office and assumed her human disguise. She was still waiting on orders from Dark Spectre, which meant keeping up her public persona. She read through her messages and frowned to see the Nezu had declined her offer to have the students from UA at her company for a reception. She let out an annoyed sigh as she reached into her desk and pulled out a burner phone. She entered the number and waited.
“Hello?”
Maiko took a deep breath before she spoke. "I require your services again Chitose." She said knowing that this would cost her a favor or money. She was hoping for the latter.
"Ah, Miss Sasori. It's been a while. What can I do for you this lovely evening?"
Maiko rolled her eyes. She could tell from the reporter's tone that this had her full attention. "I need you to dig up everything you can for me on an individual from UA." She knew this woman would dig further into it if she was not careful about how she approached it.
"That sounds easy enough for any investigator. Why reach out to me for something this?"
Maiko grit her teeth. "I need your discretion and the speed of getting this information."
“Fine, give me the name.”
Maiko exhaled in relief at her agreeing to take the job. “The name is-.”
Chitose quirked an eyebrow at the name and smiled as she leaned back in her chair. “Very interesting Miss Sasori.” She wrote down the name and planned on digging a bit before calling it a night.
“Just find me what I need and send me the bill.”
Chitose smile grew. “I will get it to you as soon as possible. I am a bit curious as to why?”
“I’m not paying you to be curious. Do not test my patience on this Chitose. This is very important and I am in no mood for your games.”
"I understand. I will get it to you as quick as possible." Chitose said quickly. She knew this was not a woman to cross. She had mentioned her name to her Boss and he tensed. When she asked about it, she was told to drop it.
“Good.” Click.
"So much for small talk," Chitose grumbled as she open a browser on her computer and went to work. She would send it to her boss it could be used for the cause. She went to get a fresh cup of coffee for what would be the beginnings of a long night for her.
Maiko placed the phone back in the secret compartment of her desk and locked it. She had a meeting to attend and shifted her appearance back to Scorpina and vanished from her office. She waited patiently for her contact to arrive.
Scorpina had just finished meeting with her contact inside the HSPC and was disappointed that they didn't have anything new for her. She still paid them their fee regardless if the information was useless to her. It would keep them loyal to her with the possibility of important information later on. She was about to leave when she was blasted across the warehouse. She rolled a few times before coming to stop. She stood up and sneered at her attacker. "I thought I killed you years ago Ranger." She stood up to face the Gold Zeo Ranger.
"Not going to die that easy Scorpina. I've been keeping tabs on you from a distance. After your attack on the USJ, I decided it was time for us to have an overdue chat." Gold Zeo said in their modulated voice. They walked to stand across from Scorpina. "What are you up to? You have been keeping a low profile for years and now all of a sudden you attack a Hero School and let your picture get splashed all over Japan. Why?"
Scorpina dusted herself off before summoning her staff to her hand. "It doesn't concern you, Ranger." She readied her staff. "I should just end you now and save myself the headache later."
Gold Zeo Ranger chuckled. "We have been fighting each other for well over a century. Give or take a decade." They took a defensive stance. "Yet, here we are, still doing the same song and dance." The pair started to circle each other. "We both escaped to this universe. Are you trying to make us have to flee again?"
Scorpina snarled sending a blast of energy at her opponent. The Ranger was able to evade her attack and retaliated with a golden sphere of energy. “I ran from Him. I escaped spending eternity as his right hand.” She charged forward spinning her staff. “I watched him burn worlds without remorse and was about to die by his hands when I wasn’t useful to him anymore.”
“You mean when you weren’t warming his bed anymore. I know about the worlds he burned. I fled Triforia when he attacked with his armada. Everyone I cared about died that day because of his thirst for more power.” Gold Zeo shot back as they blocked Scorpina's attack. “Imagine my surprise to see you when I arrived attacking that small town in the mountains.”
Scorpina strained against the Ranger as their staffs were locked in place. "Still complaining about that group of monkeys? Let it go already." She spun back sending as a stream of lighting from her staff. "I had already been here 70 or so years when you showed up. I was bored. Sue me."
The Ranger became a blur of black and gold energy as they avoided the attack. “Never. Those were innocent people that perished for your sick pleasure.”
Scorpina let out a groan of annoyance. “I have places to be. I deal with you another day Ranger.” Scorpina vanished from the warehouse.
The Gold Zeo Ranger clenched the staff tightly in their hand. “I won’t let another universe burn.” They muttered as they turned to walk away. “I just hope she doesn’t do anything to attract his attention to this universe. I don’t have to power to stop him.”
They teleported away from the warehouse and arrived in Pryamidis. They walked to sit in the chair letting out a tired sigh. Their hands flew over the console and the USJ attack appeared on the screen in front of them. "These Rangers are nowhere near ready to fight him."
They looked over at a timer that started the day they arrived in this universe. The readout said 132 Years, 9 Months, 13 Days. Interdimensional travel could be finicky. A slight mistake in your calculations and your arrival can be off by decades from the target date.
Rumors surrounding the disappearance of Scorpina had circulated for several months before the fall of Triforia. Most people assumed that she had been killed or she had gone into hiding. It was a big surprise to find Scorpina here when they landed. They looked at the clock on the console and got up. There was still time to patrol before the night was over. They took one last look at the screen.
For now, they would watch and intervene when needed. "Train hard Rangers, you'll need every advantage you can get."
Nero sat in his office sipping his perfectly aged bourbon. He heard back from his informant that the case against him had been buried. He smiled as he looked over the family accounts that were now his. With his brother facing years in prison, he was now in charge of the Family money. He would bide his time and, in a few years, he would have his brother killed in prison. He needed to bide his time until he was free to operate without having to look over his shoulder.
A knock on his office door brought him out of his musings. “Enter.” He called out. A moment later a man in green scrubs walked in along with a man in a nice suit. “Doctor. I take it the surgery went well?”
The doctor frowned at the man. "Yes, I took out your son's healthy appendix without issue and he is currently recovering comfortably in his room." He pulled out a piece of paper and placed it on the desk. "Instructions for his recovery. Have him see me in a week at my office to make sure everything is healing properly."
Nero nodded his head. “I will have my aide schedule it first thing in the morning. Here.” He nodded the Doctor a sealed envelope. “The evidence I had against you and money for your services.” He said with a malicious smile. “See you soon Doctor.”
The doctor left the room and closed the door behind him. “That was a bit cold, even for you Sir.” The man said as he pulled out his phone to play a few games on it. “Having an unnecessary surgery on your own son for an alibi.”
Nero glared at the other man. “Desperate times call for desperate measure Cade.” He took a sip of his drink. “Is it done?”
Cade gave him an offended look. "It's done. All he will remember is intense pain in his stomach and waking up to having his appendix being taken out." Cade smirked as he thumbed off his phone. "He is starting to resist my mental manipulations, Nero. Soon he will be immune if we keep this up."
Nero waved him off. "Understood. See you next week for her weekly session. I need him to be able to fight at the Sports Festival. After that, it doesn't matter." He said refilling his drink and tossed Cade a sealed envelope. "You fee."
Cade opened it up and nodded. "Pleasure doing business with you." He said with a mock salute and left the office whistling a cheery tune.
After downing the last of his drink Nero pulled out his phone and made a call. "Hello, Doctor Giraki. I thought about what we discussed and I agree to your terms.”
"Splendid. Your son's blood is a match and I look forward to seeing him in my lab."
Nero leaned back in his chair. “He will be all yours after the Sports Festival. Plan to have someone bring him to you immediately after he wins or loses the first round.” This would solidify his standing with All for One. It was a sacrifice he was willing to make.
"I will handle it. Thank you for your donation, Nero.
Nero hung up the phone and closed his eyes. So many plans were in the works and if it all planned out it would lead him to a life of power and money. He sold out his own brother for money and would sell out his own son for a chance at true power. Soon he would have both.
Deep in the Sewers of Musutafu, a group was watching the news repeat the Press Conference from UA for the umpteenth time that day. The screen was an old TV that had been thrown away that had been hardwired together to let them see what was going on in the world. The area looked well lived in and most of the furnishing had been well used when they found them. They fixed what they could and made due with what they could find. They went out for food and kept the criminal activity in check. The group comprised of 5 humanoid turtles and a humanoid rat. They had been hiding out since they arrived six months ago.
“Like dude!” One of them said excitedly. “This could be our way out of the sewer!”
"Don't get your hopes up, Mikey." Another said crossing his arms.
"Come on Leo," Mikey said grinning. "The Nezu guy said all of us could apply."
Leonardo closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Mikey, we are being hunted. I doubt that the school could protect us.” He looked to see Mikey deflate a bit. He watched as one of his other brothers was about to chime in. “Not now Donnie.”
"Leo," Donatello said with a groan. "Look I say we go talk to the school. They could protect us and they also have Power Rangers on Campus that could keep us safe."
The last of the brother walked over to join the conversation. "Look, we can talk about it or just go talk to them and see what happens."
Leonardo shook his head. “This is for Master Splinter to decide Raph.”
Raphael tsked in annoyance.
"That is enough boys." Splinters said with a light tap of his cane. His right hand was stroking his chin deep in thought. He watched the end of the news before turning the TV off. "Pack your things and get them into the van. Leonardo get the weapons loaded. Donatello get the equipment we need out of here. Michelangelo gather all the food stores and get them packed away. Raphael work with Jennika to set the traps for our pursuers. Just in case.
“Yes, Master Splinter!” The five of them called out as they went to work.
After making sure they were too busy to listen in. He pulled out the phone from inside his robes. He hit the single contact on the phone.
“Hello Splinter. I take you are finally accepting my offer?”
"Yes." Splinter said looking around felt a bit of sadness fill him. They were having to abandon their home. "I saw the news. You are sure you can keep my family safe?" That was all that mattered to him. His sons and his apprentice's well-being meant more to me than his own life.
"I swear on my name that I will keep them safe. Also, if you are not tearing down yet. HPSC search team is on their way and they will be there within the hour."
“We will be gone in before they arrive.” Splinter said smiling as he watched his family moving around the lair. “We shall see you shortly Nezu.”
“I’ll have a hot meal waiting for all of you.”

Chapter Text
UA
Nezu waited patiently near the entrance of UA waiting for his guests to arrive. Robo Knight and Blue Senturion were on their normal patrols around the campus. He smiled as a dark green cargo van with tinted windows pulled into the Facility parking lot. Nezu gestured for them to park closer to where he was standing. He waited patiently as the group exited the van. “Welcome to UA. If you all will follow me I can show you to your temporary quarters.”
“Thank you for your hospitality.” Splinter said bowing his head as he fell in step beside Nezu. “It is nice to meet you in person Nezu.” His cane clicked on the ground as they walked.
"I completely agree Splinter," Nezu replied giving his fellow mentor a smirk. "It has been quite illuminating to hear you talk about your sons and apprentice." He led them down a long hallway. "I have tea prepared just the way you like it.”
"It is nice to have someone who appreciates a good quality tea." Splinter said looking back at his sons. "They still have much to learn about the refinements of brewing a proper tea." He remembered the horrors of his son Michelangelo making tea for him once when he was younger. Splinter was sick for several days afterwards.
"A proper tea with good friends is hard to come by these days," Nezu said to his guest. “I hope this is the beginning of a long friendship.”
"I hope so as well Nezu." Splinter said with a smile.
Donatello looked around the building with awe. “This place is amazing. Look all this incredible technology.” He had been drooling over all the advanced technology since they had arrived in this world. He had to pick up a few things trying to get the lair online with scraps they found and old equipment people threw away.
"Focus Donnie," Leonardo told his brother as he kept his head on a swivel. "This could still be a trap." His eyes were scanning every possible place ahidden enemycould use or possible ambush points.
"Like chill Leo," Michelangelo said in his carefree tone. "Master Splinter knows this guy and he helped us get away from the guys hunting us."
Jennika looked relaxed, but she was keeping an eye on her Master. She was his bodyguard after all. She was ready to react at a moment's notice. "We need to stay vigilant for now. They may still be tracking us." The group hunting them had been relentless in their pursuit.
"Whatever," Raphael said looking around the school. "They seem to have a lot of money to spare." He was starving and was ready to get something to eat. "If they try something here we ain't going down without a fight." He rested his hands on his Sai's.
"That will be quite unnecessary Young Raphael," Nezu stated without turning around. "My word is my bond. If I grant you safety, then you are safe as long as I am Principal here at UA." He brought them to a building. He then led them to the basement. "Here is where you will be staying." Nezu brought them inside a large apartment that had multiple bedrooms a large kitchen and a living room. It was fully furnished and looked like it had been recently clean. On the kitchen table was a variety of food.
"Whoa," Michelangelo exclaimed running around the apartment. “This is amazing!” He rushed over to the table and opened a pizza box. “Deep Dish Pepperoni.”
Nezu chuckled. “Yes, it was an unused basement until recently. I felt you would feel more at home down here. Then on one of the upper floors." He motioned to the table. "Please all of you have a seat and dig in. I am sure you are all quite famished.”
“Thank you for allowing us to stay here on campus.” Splinter said making his way to the kitchen table. After he took a seat Splinter poured himself a cup of tea. “Please have a drink with me.”
“I would be honored to join you," Nezu replied moving to sit across from Splinter. "I have an offer for your sons and apprentice if they are interested."
"What is the offer?" Leonardo requested taking a seat next to Splinter. Jennika, Raphael, and Donatello sat around the table and started to fill their plates.
"I want to offer the five of you a place here at UA as students. It will give you more protection from your pursuers.” Nezu informed them sipping his tea. “I am in the middle of making changes to UA and with the creation of SPD I can keep you all safe.”
“What kind of students would we be?” Jennika asked looked at her Master for guidance. She noticed that he was sipping his tea with his eyes closed.
“Hero Course students," Nezu stated setting down his cup. "I have been keeping an eye on you and you are all exceptionally skilled. This will allow you to continue your training and learn more about the world and get a proper education along the way.” He looked at the turtles to see their reactions to his offer. He could tell that 4 out of the 5 look interested. The last one had a conflicted look on his face.
"Nezu can I ask you a question?" Donatello asked feeling ashamed for what he was about to ask.
Nezu nodded his head as he steepled his paws. “Of course, Young Donatello. I enjoy questions." He already knew what the question was going to be based on his conversations with Splinter.
“Would it be possible for me to apply to the Support course?” Donatello focused on the table in front of him. He felt horrible asked this. “I-I’ve read about all the different types of technology and degrees that are available to students of the Support Course and I think I would enjoy that more than being a Hero student.” He felt like he was betraying his brothers
"Dude," Michelangelo said in astonishment. "You can finally build all that stuff you are always designing in the lair." He gave his brother a thumbs up. "Go for it, Bro!"
Raphael grabbed a sandwich from a plate and shrugged. "If it makes you happy Point Dexter go for it." He said keeping up his gruff facade. He ignore the stunned looks from his brothers and Jennika. "What? He makes me cool stuff.”
Nezu smiled at Donatello. "I can arrange for you to talk with Power Loader about your admission to the program. From what I have heard you will thrive in the program." Nezu smiled at the thought of introducing Mei and Donatello together. He looked forward to all the chaos from those two.
Leonardo gave his brother a slight smile. “Just remember that you still have to train with us. To keep you on your toes.” He wanted his brother happy and now they had a chance to see the world and not hide from it.
Splinter refilled his cup of tea. “What all do you need from me to get them all enrolled?”
Nezu smiled. "I have taken the liberty of getting everything started." Nezu pulled out a folded piece of paper from his vest pocket. "All I need is your signature and give them all a last name." Nezu looked around at his guests. “Also, we need to talk about clothing for all of you.”
USA, Texas
Laura Tsunotori looked out from her front porch drinking her morning coffee at her massive farm with pride. She had spent years after she retired building it with her husband. Now it was one of the largest farms in Texas. She had dozens of farms hands that helped her keep the place running like a well-oiled machine. Her thoughts had drifted to her daughter Pony. Laura had been worried after getting a call from her family in Japan. After she talked with Pony, it made her feel a bit at ease. She was tempted to leave as soon as she heard about the attack and head straight to Japan, but there were no international flights available that day. Her husband had comforted her and helped her get some sleep that night.
Laura had gotten started on her morning chores before taking a much-needed coffee break. Her husband was out on a corner of the property fixing a broken fence with several farmhands. She was just about finished with her coffee when we saw a large F-350 coming down the long driveway. It was chromed out and had the American flag decal on the truck. Laura smiled as she knew two people that world drive a vehicle like that and one of them was in Japan. She smiled into her cup down as she started walking towards the driveway.
As the truck parked near the house, a moment later a 7ft tall muscular woman stepped out of the truck wearing a tight-fitting black shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of black books. The woman took off a pair of aviators and smiled brightly at Laura. "Hey, stranger. How have you been?"
Laura grinned as she moved to hug the other woman. "Long time no see Cathy." She said being dwarfed by the blonde Amazon. "What did I do to get a visit from the current #1 Heroine and my former side-kick?"
Cathy grinned at her mentor. "Maybe I just came by to convince you to finally leave your husband and let me take you away to the Bahamas." Cathy was waggling her eyebrows suggestively. "Or somewhere else where clothing is optional."
Laura rolled her eyes. "First off, I am old enough to be your mother Cathy, and Second, I am still happily married to my husband, thank you very much." She told the #1 Heroine with a deadpanned expression. "Are you still using those cheesy pick-up lines to get dates or have you finally got some good material for a change?"
Cathy busted out laughing. "I will have you know those pick-up lines have kept my bed warm for years now." She took on a mischievous grin. "What can say? I have a thing for MILF's and anyone who can put up a good fight." She said as she watched her mentor let out an exhausted sigh. "So many good times with my most recent partner. She is quite flexible."
"TMI Cathy," Laura said drinking her coffee to give her a moment of not thinking about her former side-kicks sex life. "I am sure you came to see me for another reason, other than talking to me about your seedy sex life Cathy. I have a lot of work to get done today."
As much as she was happy to see Cathy again after both of them saw Pony off to Japan several months ago, she had a farm to run and ranch hands to check in on.
Cathy's face grew very serious. "We need to talk Boss. It's very important and I want you to hear it from me first." Cathy said in a serious tone.
Laura was slightly jarred by Cathy's sudden change of demeanor. "Let's go to my office, Cathy," Laura said leading the blonde inside the house. After making their way to the office, Laura sat behind her desk and let Cathy take a seat across from her in a recliner. "Aright kid, what's going on that that has you this serious."
"Well, you see Boss...." Cathy started cautiously as she started preparing to make a run for when her Mentor heard the whole story.
As the workers on the farm were busy doing their assignments for the day they were frightened when they heard. "THEY WANTED TO DO WHAT!" They all tensed knowing that their boss was known for her legendary temper. They all quickly double-checked everything they had done so far. Just in case.
Cathy was a moment away from making a run for it herself. She had told her Mentor about the plans a certain group of people had been making to use Pony as a spy and she watched the Minotaur Heroine live up to her name. Laura was 6ft tall and still heavily muscled despite her age. She still radiated power that would make most villains run in fear when she arrived on the scene. "Take a breath Boss. Please." Cathy said slowly not wanting to make any sudden moves. "I put a stop to it and made sure they knew the consequences of going down that route."
Laura took a deep breath before calming down slightly. "Good I would hate to be arrested for leveling government buildings." She muttered sitting down in her chair. "I appreciate the heads up about them trying to go after my baby girl." She glanced over to her desk where the pictures of Pony covered most of the desk. She truly missed her daughter.
"Well, that brings me to the next part of my visit," Cathy said relaxing into her chair. " I am flying to Japan to meet with Nezu in person in a few weeks and was wondering if you wanted to come with me." She offered her Mentor. "They are sending me on a private flight there and I wanted to bring you along with me so you can surprise Pony before the Sports Festival."
"How long will you be staying in Japan?" Laura asked. She really wanted to see her daughter, but she wanted to know how long she would be away from her Farm.
"I'll be there until after the Sports Festival, so about 2-3 weeks," Cathy told her hoping she could convince Laura to come with her. "Imagine the look on Pony's face when you show up out of the blue to root for her at one of Japan's biggest events."
Laura was conflicted. She loved her daughter more than anything in the world and wanted to hold her daughter in her arms. She also was afraid to leave the Farm for that long. After having a lengthy internal debate with herself she reached a decision. "I'll come with you. I won't tell Pony that I'm coming to Japan. I want to see the surprised look on my baby girl's face when she sees me in person."
Cathy smiled. "I'll get everything set up and call you with the departure date and what time our flight will depart for Japan." She said excited about seeing Laura and Pony together. She was curious if her Goddaughter had gotten interested in any boys yet. "Now tell how you've been Boss." She said getting comfortable to catch up a bit before she had to head out.
Izuku started stirring as he felt a pair of familiar weights laying against his chest. He opened his eyes to Eri and Raphtalia sleeping soundly on his shoulders. He noted that Fire Heart was not in the cuddle pile. He noticed the Ochako was laying protectively of Eri and Setsuna was doing the same with Raphtalia. He could see all his girlfriends were cuddled close. He smiled at the sight before him as his heart swelled with joy. He slowly and methodically extracted himself from the pile and watched them sleep for a few minutes.
As Izuku looked towards the kitchen he spotted his mother sitting quietly at the table sipping from a coffee mug. Inko didn't say a word. She just gave him a knowing smile as she petted Fire Heart with her free hand. He went to the bathroom and came back to sit next to his mother.
"Did you sleep better, last night Mom?" Izuku asked hoping to direct the conversation away from the cuddle pile.
Inko smirked at him as she set the coffee mug on the table. "Yes, I slept much better knowing that you were safe and sound here." She said reaching over to ruffle her son bed slept hair. "I have to admit it was quite adorable to see you all sleep around your daughters." Inko gave him a genuine smile. "Fire Heart told me what happened and I wanted to let you sleep a bit longer."
Izuku nodded his head. "Eri was upset and we wanted to make sure she was alright." He explained before pointing at Fire Heart. "I am sure there is an interesting story behind that new pendant around her neck."
Fire Heart nodded his head and he sat back on his hind legs. 'Yes, I ask that you let me tell the story without interrupting me, and then you can react please.' After getting a nod from Izuku and Inko, Fire Heart told them about Eri's encounter with the Tribunal of Magic. How Eri is the first person in the world to be born with magic. and how the Black Council Member upset her. When he finished telling a story he looked to see the angry expression on both of their faces. 'Breath, he will be dealt with by the other Council members.' He looked over to the pile of sleeping bodies. 'I think you should tell their mothers about it. I suggest just loving on her for the next couple of days.'
"I agree with Fire Heart," Inko said after calming down slightly. She wanted nothing more to have a conversation with the man that made her granddaughter cry and remove his bits with her quirk. 'After all, those are considered small objects.' Inko told herself as she put an arm around her son who seemed to be struggling with what happened to Eri. "She is a strong little girl Izuku. She will be fine as long as we are there for her."
"I know Mom," Izuku said looking at his sleeping daughter. He wanted to protect both of his daughters from the darker side of the world. Both of them have suffered enough in their young lives. "I am going to go grab a shower and come help you get breakfast ready."
Inko smiled at cooking with her son. She enjoyed their bonding time when they were cooking. "Sounds good honey." She watched as her son went off toward the bathroom. She decided to start getting things ready.
Mina stirred as she thought she got a whiff of something. She opened her eyes to see she was spooning with Setsuna. Mina lifted her head up enough that Raphtalia was snuggled tight against Setsuna's chest. She was had to admit she looked adorable with a little smile on her face as she slept.
Mina was debating whether to go back to sleep or not when the smell of bacon filled her nose. She let her blankets fall to her lap as she sat up. She noticed that Izuku was not in their cuddle pile and slowly got to her feet. She went through a few stretches she did when she was preparing for some intense dance routine.
Mina looked over at the kitchen to see Inko and Izuku cooking side by side. Mina blinked a few times before she realized that her boyfriend could cook. She noticed that his hair still looked wet in a loose ponytail. He was in a pair of black sweatpants and a red t-shirt. Mina took another look at Izuku to see that he was wearing a white apron over his shirt.
Mina would never admit to anyone besides Toru that she dreamed of getting married and having children one day. She was a hopeless romantic that loved to hear how couples met and fell in love. She had met boys that got looked promising, but after talking with them a bit decided against them. She had decided to put her love life on hold as she wanted to focus on her time at UA.
Then she was partnered up with Izuku during that traumatic Battle Trial. Her life flashed before her eyes and then Izuku was there to save her. Mina was smitten by his bravery and his kind demeanor. Izuku was a kind and gentle Father to two little girls that saved them from terrible situations and gave them a good home. He was always thinking of others before himself and wouldn't hesitate to put himself in harm's way to save someone. She started daydreaming about him cooking for her serving her in bed with a ring on her left hand.
Mina watched him for a bit before she heard the other girls starting to stir. As the others started waking up, they looked around for Izuku. When they spotted Mina starting at the kitchen they all slowly got to their feet. Ochako and Setsuna were able to extricate themselves from their cuddle buddies before looking with the other girls.
"Izuku can cook?" Ochako asked taking a sniff of the delicious aroma coming from the food being prepared.
"Zuzu is full of surprises," Mei said zooming in to see what they were cooking. "Oooh, Pancakes."
Momo smiled as she watched the duo cooking in the kitchen. “He is truly one of a kind.” She murmured as the smell made her mouth water.
“It smells amazing." Toru chimed in as her skin started shifting through various colors.
Pony looked at the other girls. "He needs to be protected. He cooks, kind-hearted, and he is a loving Father." She pointed towards Izuku. "He will be chased after by other women."
"Over my dead body," Kyoka grumbled as she shared a look with the other girls. "They can find their own boyfriend."
Setsuna detached her head to get a birds-eye view of the food they were making. After reattaching her head, she grinned at the others. "He is still taking care of all of us." She gestured towards him. "He is making all of our favorites for breakfast."
Mina blinked for a moment before rushing forward to hug Izuku from behind. “Morning Handsome.” She said placing a kiss on the back of his neck.
Izuku turned his head the best he could. “Morning Mina.” He set down the spatula and turned to face her. “You look beautiful this morning Mina. Breakfast will be ready shortly.” He placed a quick kiss on her lips before going back to making breakfast.
Mina flushed a dark purple as she went back to stand with the other girls. “That boy is good.” She muttered as the other girls were giggling at her being caught off balance.
Inko wiped her hands with a towel before turning to face her future daughter-in-laws. "While we finished getting everything ready, why don't you girls go take your showers and we should have the food ready shortly," Inko told them as she gestured to the hallway. "You girls can use the shower in my room as well. I left a stack of towels in both bathrooms.”
After the girls were showered and changed out of their onesies, Izuku was starting to set plates of food on the table. Inko had gathered up all the girl's laundry to wash them after breakfast. Izuku went to wake up his sleeping daughters. "Girls," Izuku said gently as he shook them lightly. "Girls it's time to wake up.”
Eri started waking up rubbing her eyes before yawning. “Morning Papa.” She got up and hugged him tightly.
"Morning Eri," Izuku replied as he place a kiss on her forehead. She ran his fingers through her long white hair. "How are you feeling this morning?"
"Better," Eri said quietly. She hugged him a bit tighter.
Izuku nodded his head. “Ok, breakfast is ready. Let me get your sister up from under her blanket.”
"Ok," Eri said walking over to the table taking a seat in-between Momo and Ochako. "Whoa! Pancakes and cinnamon apples!"
Izuku chuckled as he looked at Raphtalia who was under her blanket. “Come on, Raphtalia. It’s time for breakfast.” He should feel her tightening into a ball to keep the blanket from being taken from her. “I make pancakes with cherries on top.”
Raphtalia pulled the blanket off with a grunt. “I’m up.” She said stretching as she got up. She looked and held her arms out for him.
Izuku chuckled as Raphtalia scooped her up and took her to the table. She wanted to sit next to Mina and Setsuna. As she got into her seat she picked up her fork and dug in with vigor. "Thanks, Papa!"
“You’re welcome," Izuku said kissing the top of Raphtalia's head before he took a seat next to Toru and Ochako. "I hope everyone is enjoying their breakfast. Mom and I worked hard on it."
"Thank you, Dear," Inko said digging into her food.
Momo took a bit of her bacon and sausage omelet taking a sigh as she savored the flavor. “This is amazing Izuku.” She placed several pancakes on her plate as they smelled heavenly.
"You could open a restaurant Zuzu," Mei told him as she took a stack of pancakes and a couple of sunny-side-up eggs.
"Izuku, this is incredible," Ochako said in awe as her pancakes had powdered sugar and mochi on the side. "Please cook more often for us."
"I will see what I can do," Izuku said taking a bite of his toast.
Kyoka nodded her head. “You can cook for me anytime Izzy.” She took a bite of her ham and cheese omelet.
"Same here," Mina said as she savored her spicy eggs and pancakes.
Toru scooped some mixed fruit atop her pancakes after she finished her eggs. “I will pay if you make lunch for me Izu.”
"I call dibs on him cooking for me soon." Pony said as she enjoyed her American-style breakfast.
The table was soon filled with laughter as Eri was hoarding the apples and Toru handing Raphtalia a glass of milk after she took a bit of Mina’s spicy omelet. Ochako had inhaled her Mochi and was teased by Setsuna who called her Ocha-Kirby. Momo was listening to Eri talk about her school work and asked her Mama Momo to look over it.
As they were finishing up their meal Izuku gestured for Fire Heart to come over. "There is something you all need to know." He said looking over at Eri. "It has to do with Eri's nightmare last night."
By the end of the story, Momo and Ochako had Eri in a protective embrace and his other girlfriends were in various stages of rage.
"I will punt him into the sun," Ochako muttered as she reassured Eri with hugs and kisses. "It's ok Eri. We'll keep you safe."
Momo was doing the same. "I want a few minutes alone with him with a baseball bat." She was plotting where she could hide the body.
"I call dibs on the kneecaps," Mei added as she cracked her knuckles.
"I think we should make him regret his decision for upsetting Eri," Toru said her skin turning a bright red.
Setsuna was talking with Raphtalia as she was plotting her own way of punishing the jerk.
"I think that Mina and I can make him hate his life," Kyoka added pointing to her jacks. "Mina's Acid and my Jacks."
"I like what you're thinking," Mina added with a thumbs up. "No one messes with either of our girls."
“I know a few spots in Texas to hide him.” Pony said tapping her chin in a thinking pose. “No one really goes there, not even my parents.”
Izuku looked at all of his girlfriends with a mixture of awe and fear at how protective they were of Eri and Raphtalia. "Well, I think we need to do something fun today. Get the girls out of the apartment for a little bit." He wanted something to keep both of his daughters distracted after the USJ attack and Eri's traumatic encounter with the Tribunal. "Where should we go?"
There was a lot of debate about where to go. it was Toru that suggested it. "Well, why don't we go to the mall. I can finally shop for clothing and see myself in the mirror." She flushed a bit pink from the suggestion.
"Let's do it," Mina said excitedly. We can make a day of it and there is a movie theater that just opened in the mall." She looked around at everyone at the table. "I am sure there is a movie they would enjoy."
"That sounds like a splendid idea." Momo agreed as she absentmindedly ran her fingers through Eri's hair. "I can call my driver to take us there in the limo."
Ochako nodded her head in agreement. “That sounds like a fun idea.” She looked over at Inko. “Do you want to come with us?”
Inko gave her a gentle smile. "That is sweet to include me, but you all need to have some fun. Besides I am meeting Yu here in a bit to talk about something." She looked at everyone at the table. "I will be going out this evening to have a girl's night with your Mothers, Mitsuki, Kaina, along with Nemuri and her girlfriend Ryu will be joining us as well. You are on your own for lunch and dinner depending on how late you all decide to stay out."
"Ok, Mom." Izuku said starting to gather up the dirty dishes. "I hope you have fun tonight. You deserve to have some fun too." He places a kiss atop Inko's head and went to start washing all the breakfast dishes.
Pony got up along with Kyoka to start helping him wash the dishes. Ochako and Setsuna went to get both girls changed out of their pajamas. Momo went to call her driver to have him come pick them up. Mina, Mei, and Toru picked up the trash in the living room. Soon they were ready to go when Momo got a call from her driver saying they had arrived. After a round of hugs and goodbyes with Inko and they were off to the Mall.
Inko looked at her watch and smiled as she pulled out a plate of leftovers from the fridge and started to reheat them. As the microwave went off there was a knock on the door. "Right on time," Inko said to herself as she went to open the door. "Morning Yu. I have breakfast ready for you." She gestured for her adopted daughter to come inside. Inko noticed Yu was carrying a duffle bag that looked like it was about to burst.
"Thanks, Mom," Yu said heading over to the table. "I meant to be here sooner, but I got distracted talking on the phone this morning." She flushed a bit thinking of her conversation. She twiddled her thumbs as Inko put the plate of food in front of her. "I need a favor if it's not too much trouble," she asked taking a bite of her breakfast.
"I will do what I can dear," Inko answered sitting across from Yu. "What do you need?"
Yu set her fork down and took a deep breath. “Well as I was getting ready to come over this morning I got a call from someone that asked me out on a date later tonight.” Yu blushed as she fidgeted with her hands. “I-I wasn’t expecting it and I need help getting ready for it. Like you helped Nem.” She got a bit shy asking for help, but she had not been on a date in quite a while.
Inko grinned at her. "I can do the dear, but you have to tell me the name of who is taking my daughter out a date." Inko teased as she watched Yu squirm in her seat mumbling something. "What was that dear? I couldn't hear you."
Yu sighed. "I said his name is Kugo Sakamata." She said blushed a brighter red. "His Hero name is Gang Orca. We hit it off about the time I went to work at UA part-time and would meet for coffee after team-ups or when we could find the time." She brushed a lock of hair behind her ear. "After what happened at the USJ he decided that he didn't want to wait any longer to ask me out on a real date." Yu had a crush on Gang Orca since her days at UA. After she graduated she got to work with him a few times and even got some advice from him as well. They stayed good friends and it had slowly turned into something more.
Inko reached over to place her hand atop of Yu's. "I would love to help you out. I need your help in return to find a dress for Girls' night anyway." Inko gestured to her bedroom. "Shall we? We can go have a look at a few dresses in my closet or go out to a store if needed." Inko had grown up with a son who loved heroes and she know most of the more popular ones by heart. She was going to make sure Gang Orca was going to treat Yu right. 'I wonder if he remembers me from all those years ago?' she thought to herself.
Gang Orca suddenly started shaking in fear as she looked around his office where this feeling was coming from. He shook it off and got back to his paperwork. He wanted everything done in time to pick up Yu for their date.
Yu smiled at her adopted mother. "Lead the way, Mom." She said excitedly getting up from the table to follow her.
"Oh, and one more thing dear," Inko said as she walked towards her bedroom.
Yu suddenly felt a bit nervous. "What is it, Mom?" Yu asked nervously.
Inko glanced back at her. “You have to introduce him to me as soon as possible.”
"I can do that," Yu said letting out a sigh of relief. "I can't wait for you to meet him, Mom."
Gang Orca started trembling in fear again. "What is going on?" He asked looking around for what was causing this feeling of fear and dread. He went back to his paperwork hoping this feeling would go away.
While Inko and Yu were sorting through all their clothing and jewelry, Izuku and the girls arrived at the mall. As Izuku got out of the limo the driver waved him over. Izuku walked over to him.” Yes?” He asked curiously.
“Kid I am about to call you a legend.” The Driver said looking as the girls were talking amongst themselves. “This is your 3rd trip to the mall with a large group of young ladies.” He looked back to Izuku. “You’re doing this without complaining and voluntary correct?”
Izuku nodded his head. “Yeah, it makes them happy." He said with complete innocence and honesty.
“You are too good for this world kid.” He muttered as he shook his head.
“Izuku come on!’ Mei shouted at him.
Izuku gave him a wave before hurrying off to return to his group. The Driver pulled out his phone to call his friends and tell them the legend of Izuku Midoriya.
After looking at the movie times, they found a movie that Eri and Raphtalia would enjoy that would not start until later that afternoon. Momo turned to the rest of the group. "We have about 5 hours until the movie starts." Momo held up all of their movies tickets. She had paid for the tickets to get seats next to each other. "How about we walk around and do our shopping until lunch and we can go from there."
"Sounds like a plan," Setsuna said giving her a thumbs up before looking at the other girls. They started doing rock-paper scissors.
After a few rounds, Mina did a celebratory dance. "Thank you, goddess of luck!" She cheered happily. "I get Izuku first!"
Izuku looked confused for a moment. "You lost me."
"We decided each of us should get to spend time alone with you," Ochako said frowning at her luck. "We shall take turns watching Eri and Raphtalia until it's time for the movie." Eri was currently holding Momo and Ochako's hands
Izuku hesitated for a moment. “Are you girls ok with this?” He asked wanting to make sure his daughters were ok with this arrangement.
"Were good Papa," Raphtalia told him as she held Setsuna and Mei's hands. "We get to spend time with our Mama's," she said a bit quieter than normal.
Eri nodded her head as well. “It’s ok. We want to sit with you during the movie.” Eri got shy again. “If it’s ok with you.” She hid her face in Ochako’s leg.
"Ok, I have my phone if you two need anything," Izuku told them before hugging them both. "Behave please."
“We will.” Eri and Raphtalia said together smiling brightly at their Papa.
“All right girls we need to go shopping for some new clothes for you two," Toru said leading the group in another direction. They all waved at Izuku as they headed off to look for new clothes.
Izuku let Mina lead him over to the Arcade where she got a cup of tokens. “Here we can share my tokens and play some games.” Mina offered as she gestured to a prize rack in the corner. “Maybe between the two of us we can win a few cool prizes.”
"Sounds like fun to me," Izuku said as he started loosening up his shoulders. "How about you pick the first game and we take turns from there." He gestured for her to pick the first game.
“Such a gentleman.” Mina teased as she gave him an exaggerated wink.
Mina's first game was a skeet ball and she was able to hit her target and grabbed her tickets. Izuku took his turn and scored just about every shot. Mina got competitive and after a few more rounds Izuku had beat her soundly. By the end of their circuit of games, they were tied 6-6. The last game was a DDR game and Mina was starting to limber up. She placed the last of the tokens into the machine. "Come on Izuku we need to break the tie. If you're up for it?" Mina said as she started moving through the list of songs.
"I'll do my best Mina," Izuku replied wearily as he had never been that coordinated when it came to dancing. No one ever danced with him except him Mom, but he stopped after he kept stepping on her toes.
As the game started Izuku was able to step on the correct arrows and was doing pretty well. He glanced over and missed the next arrow as he watch as Mina's movements were fluid and graceful. As the song started to speed up and Mina was in her groove as her score skyrocketed. Izuku was barely keeping up and then he missed stepped causing him to fall sideways off the platform to the floor.
Izuku groaned as he sat up to see the game declare Mina as the winner. Before he could say anything, she jumped off the platform and at his side in a moment.
“Izuku are you ok?” Mina asked looking him over.
Izuku nodded his head embarrassed. “I’m not that good at dancing.” He said as Mina helped him “Never had anyone wanting to dance with me besides my Mom.” He dusted off his shirt and pants as Mina gave him a sad look. “It’s ok. It was a long time ago Mina.”
Mina hugged her boyfriend tight. "You have a line of dance partners now Izuku and I am going to be the one to teach you how to dance properly."
Izuku returned the hug. "Thanks, Mina." He said getting a citrusy scent from her hair.
Mina held him for almost a minute before she looked around to see people starting to stare. She rushed over to grab her tickets from the machine and dragged Izuku to the prize counter. Mina looked over all the normal cheap and worthless prizes without a second thought. She had kept a rough count of her tickets in her head and knew that she could choose a better prize. She was still scanning the prizes when her eyes landed on a prize that made her gasp. "OMG that is a Limited-Edition Alien Queen from Aliens!" Mina said excitedly as she pointed at the statue like it was the Holy Grails itself.
"Well, that is an impressive statue," Izuku said smirking as Mina was fangirling about the statue. It was nice to see someone act like him when came to memorabilia. "You should get it, Mina." He told her hoping she had enough tickets for the prize she wanted.
Mina nodded her head excited. "Hey, Mister how much for the wicked statue?" She asked bouncing with excitement.
The ticker taker looked at Mina with mild annoyance. “That is one of our Legendary tier prizes. It’s worth 50,000 tickets girl.” He said gruffly going back to looking at his phone. “I doubt you have that many.”
Mina wilted. "I have like 3000 tickets at most." She whined letting out a sad sigh as she went to look at the other prizes she could afford.
Izuku hated to see Mina look so sad. "I'll be back in a few minutes Mina," Izuku said full of determination. He got a handful of tokens and went to work. He went to the more expensive machines that paid out for the largest amount of tickets. He came back to the ticket counter 10 minutes later with a massive amount of tickets in his hands. "I think this will cover it."
The ticket taker looked dumbfounded as he counted all the tickets. "5-52,012 tickets." He stuttered telling them the final count.
"The Alien Queen statue please," Izuku said with a smile as he was handed the statue box. Izuku turned to see Mina looking completely shocked. "One Limited-Edition Alien Queen statue, for my Pretty Acid Queen." He said smiling brightly at her.
Mina stared at him stunned. "Izuku." She whispered in awe gingerly accepting the box from him as if it was made of glass. She placed it gently on the counter before she turned to place a hand on each side of his face and pulled Izuku into a passionate kiss. When Mina pulled back a bit of saliva trailed between the two of them. "Thank you for doing this for me." Her face was a bright lilac as she stared at the diamond-shaped freckles on Izuku's face.
"I'm glad I could make you happy Mina," Izuku said giving her a bright smile. He looked around and got a few stuffed toys for Eri and Raphtalia with his remaining tickets. The guy at the counter just looked dumbfounded at having to give someone that hard-to-win prize. He had to call his boss to get something to replace it.
Mina got a bag to carry her statue around easier as she looked at her phone. “My time is up. We got to get you to Pony.” She hooked her arm through his and they left the Arcade Mina was as happy as a pink clam. This had been so much fun she couldn’t wait to do it again very soon.
"Here you go Pony," Mina said separating from Izuku and headed off in another direction looking at her phone on where to meet up the others.
Pony was smiling as she pulled Izuku into a hug. "Now I get you to myself." Pony said proudly of herself for getting better at speaking Japanese.
Izuku chuckled as he wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Very true Pony.” He looked around to see what was nearby. “Is there anywhere you want to go look at?” Izuku was wanting to let the girls pick where they wanted to go.
Pony got a bit shy and hesitated for a moment before she switched back to English. “I-I want to check out the Anime store and see if they have what I am missing from my collection.” She knew that Izuku would not make fun of her, but her old classmates had teased her mercilessly.
"Sounds good to me Pony," Izuku said knowing that look on her face. "Let's go see what we can find for your collection." He smiled at her. He knew the store was nearby. "This way Pony."
Pony nuzzled up against him feeling comfortable with his arm around her. This was like a dream come true of having someone supporting her love of Anime and Manga.
Izuku watched as Pony's eyes light up with pure excitement as they walked into the Anime store called Otaku Haven. He followed behind her as she went from shelf to shelf getting more excited as she found certain Manga volumes and Anime seasons. Izuku chuckled as her stack was getting too big for her to keep it balanced. He went over and grabbed her a basket from the register and started placing her picks into the basket for her. “Here. Let me carry this for you while you look around.”
Pony blushed a bit at his gesture. "Thank you Izuku." She replied shyly as she leaned up to plant a peck on his cheek before Pony was a blur of motion as she looked through countless series she enjoyed. She would talk excitedly about finding a rare Manga volume or an exclusive collectible.
Izuku looked as the basket was starting to overflow. "Pony, I hate to ask you this." Looking at his girlfriend as she grabbed another item from a shelf. "Do you have enough money for all of this?" He was hoping he didn't offend her by asking.
Pony nodded her head without missing a beat. "Yep." She told him adding a bit of a pop to the p. She pointed to her purse. "I have been saving up my allowance for months waiting to come here. Tetsutetsu has been too busy working out to go with me." Pony set the item in the basket and placed another kiss on his cheek. "Thanks for checking."
"Let's see what else we can find you," Izuku said looking around to see they had only made it a third of the way through the store.
The further they went in the harder it was for Pony to choose what she wanted. She knew how much she had saved up and had been adding everything up on her phone to keep track of her total so far. After having hit her limit of what she could spend, Pony let out a sad sigh as she had to set several items back on the shelf.
"Alright let's check out." Pony said resisting the urge to second guess her decisions. She leaned against Izuku as they walked with her up to the register. "Thanks for carrying all this stuff for me."
Izuku just smiled at her. "It's my pleasure Pony." He put a free arm around her shoulder.
The cashier was smiling at the pair as they walked up and Izuku started placing the items on the counter. Izuku let out a whistle as the total continued to grow larger and larger. Pony looked unconcerned as she waited for the cashier to finish. When it was all said and done Pony smirked as she was right within a few dollars. She reached into her purse and started counting out the bills. She has enough money left for lunch and concessions at the theater.
"Impressive," Izuku told her as he started picking up the bags for Pony.
Pony gave him a confident smirk. "I have to be smart if I want to get my money's worth for my collection." She accepted her change and placed the receipt in her purse. "Thank you for dealing with my Otaku addiction."
“You have seen my room Pony. I have no room to make fun of anyone else for theirs.” Izuku said giving her a deadpan expression.
Pony nodded her head and was in the process of turning to leave when her eyes caught a glimpse of something behind the counter. "OMG that is the hard-to-find Cowboy Bebop Blu-ray Collector’s edition with complete directors commentary and Limited-Edition collection of pin set!” She was talking so fast that Izuku was barely able to keep up with her as she switched to English. She felt her heartbreak as it was on sale, but she couldn't afford it until she got her next allowance. "Maybe next time." Pony murmured in disappointment in Japanese.
Izuku readjusted the bags in his hands as he talked with the cashier and then took out his debit card. A minute later he walked over with a small bag in hand. “Here. It would be a shame if you missed out on a chance like this for such a rare gem.” He told her as he handed her the bag.
Pony was stunned by his act of kindness. She took the bag and then pulled him out of the store and pushed him into the empty corner nearby. She pulled him into an intense kiss before pulling back. "Izuku thank you so much. I will pay you back every cent." She whispered looking into his eyes.
"I know," Izuku said smiling.
Before Izuku could say anything, Pony's phone started to ring. After she looked at she smiled at him. "It's Mei's turn. We will talk about this later."
Izuku nodded his head. “Ok.”
Pony and Izuku met up with an eager Mei who latched onto his arm as Pony took her bags and headed to take them out to the Limo. She waved goodbye as she headed off.
"So, where are you wanting to head to Mei?" Izuku asked as he looked at the tech genius. He knew that she had a few hobbies besides building her babies, but they were similar in nature.
Mei thought for a moment. "The model store please." She said resting her head on his shoulder. "I got an email saying that they got a bunch of new stock came in and my order is waiting to be picked up." Mei had placed an order before the USJ and had not found time to pick it up.
"Sounds good to me," Izuku said having accompanied her a few times early in their friendship. He was not surprised to know that Mei was obsessed with Mech anime and models. She had dozens of blueprints that she wanted to build one day, but she agreed to wait until after she finished UA before she attempted anything of that magnitude.
Mei checked on her order and told them to hold onto it as she wanted to look around to see what they had on the shelves. She pulled out a list of paints and supplies that she needed to replace from her stock at home. Izuku helped her find everything on the list and lifted her up to browse the top shelves looking for any hard-to-find or hidden models. She was trying to balance the models with the odds and ends in her hand.
"Mei, let me hold those for you." Izuku gestured for her to hand her the boxes. This was a game they played every time they came here. Mei would insist on holding everything herself until she started dropping things and Izuku would pick them up and hold them for her.
Mei thought about it for a moment before handing everything over to him. "Ok, Zuzu. Thank you." She said stealing a quick kiss as she went back to looking in the very back of the lower shelves. Izuku was having a hard time not looking as she was halfway into the shelf with her butt wiggling with every movement. "It's ok for you to look Zuzu.” Her muffled voice came from deep within the shelf.
Izuku started stumbling for words as Mei pulled out a model kit from the shelf and started laughing at the look on his face. He regain a bit of his composure as he helped her stand up. "I mean you do have a nice butt, Mei." He cursed himself at not filtering his teenage mind.
Mei flush a bit red and focused on the model in her hands. “Thanks, Zuzu.” She said quietly before hurrying off to the next aisle. After looking for a few more items she decided that she had enough models and supplies to last for a while. She linked arms with Izuku and headed up to register.
An older man was wiping down the counter. "Well, it isn't Mei Hatsume, my favorite customer." He grinned looking at Izuku with a glint in his eyes. "Nice to see your boyfriend is being the gentleman as usual and carrying your things for you."
"Hey, Mr. Ral," Mei said grinning back at her favorite store clerk. "Yeah, Zuzu always cares my stuff for me." She replied setting her stuff on the counter and gesturing to her box behind him. "I need my order as well."
“Of course.” Mr. Ral said grabbing the box and handing it to her. “Let me ring you up real quick so you two lovebirds can go enjoy the rest of your day.” He started laughing as they both blushed at his comment.
After bagging everything and telling Mei the total, she started patting down her pockets and groaned. "I left my wallet in my other overalls." Mei let out a small whine at having to come back later for her things. She could have sworn she grabbed it when she got changed at Zuzu's apartment.
Izuku swiped his card. "I got it, Mei." He said before putting it back in his wallet. "That way you don’t have to make another trip out here for your stuff.”
"Zuzu, that was a lot of money and I could have made do with what I have for another week or so," Mei told him feeling bad that he paid for her stuff like that. She rarely let him pay for anything because she was afraid she would be taking advantage of his kindness.
Izuku just smiled at her. “I know Mei, but I wanted to do something nice for you and this just worked out.” He picked up the bags and her package and moved closer to her. “I don’t get to do that a lot and I saw how these made you happy, so this trip is on me.”
"Zuzu," Mei whispered as she placed a hand on her boyfriend's face. She thanked Mr. Ral and dragged Izuku out of the store.
Mr. Ral just started laughing. “Ah to be young again.” He said as started wiping down the counter again.
Mei had pulled him into a nearby corner and hugged him tightly. "I'm glad I met you Zuzu."
"I'm glad I met you too Mei," Izuku said setting the bag down to run his fingers through her hair. "That was one of the best days of my life." They stayed like that until Mei placed a tender kiss on his lips. They help the kiss until they had to take a breath.
"It was one of my best days for me as well Zuzu," Mei whispered as she played with his ponytail. They stayed off in their own little world until Mei's phone started to beep. "Looks like my time is up." She said pulling her phone out of her pocket. "Time to meet up with Kyo."
“Alrighty.” Izuku said picking up her bag “Off we go then.”
Izuku spotted Kyoka waiting outside the Music store called Melody's Box twirling one of her jacks looking at her phone. Mei took her things from him. "Have Fun Zuzu," Mei said heading off in a different direction.
"Hey, Kyo," Izuku said getting her attention.
Kyoka smirked as she put her phone away and pulled him into a hug. “You are mine now Izzy and I am going to properly school you in your musical education and give you a proper guide to good music.” She told him as she grabbed his hand to pull him into the store.
Izuku was pretty amazed at the store at the different sections of the store. They had Records and CDs from every genre possible genre you could think of. Kyoka led him immediately over to the Deep Dope section of the store. Kyoka immediately started searching through the different albums. “Here is their first album Off the Deep End." She showed him the CD she was talking about. "I remember listening to it for the first time and had to replace it twice from wearing it out." She said smiling at the memory. It was one of the first CDs she bought with her own money. She looked to see Izuku smiling brightly at her. She got a bit flustered and started to tap her jacks together. "Sorry, I got a little caught up there for a minute."
Izuku wrapped an arm around her and pulled her close. "Kyoka, I love it how you brighten up when you talk about music." He leaned in close so only she could hear it. "You are my Queen of Rock after all." He whispered.
Kyoka felt a shiver run down her spine as she felt his warm breath against her ear. "Y-You are doing this on purpose." She whined a bit as she leaned into him. "N-Now let's get back to your musical education." She wrapped one of her jacks around his wrist as she moved on to the next few albums talking about their evolution from a new band few people had heard of to the Legends that they are today. After reaching their most recent album She decided to look through some of the vinyl records to see if there was anything new she could add to her collection.
"I should have known that you collected vinyl records," Izuku said as he watched Kyoka watched scan through each row of records before moving on to the next one. "I'd like to listen to them with you one of these days."
Kyoka grinned as she stopped thumbing through the records. "Good to know. I will find some of my best records for us to listen to." She laid her head against his shoulder. "You and Me. Cuddling on the couch listening to the music. Sounds like a perfect night to me." She let her mind drift to being comfortable in Izuku's arms while the music filled the room.
Izuku nodded his head. "I think that sounds amazing to me."He told her reaching into his pocket to pull out a white envelope. "I guess you don't want these then." Izuku teased holding with the envelope in front of Kyoka.
"What's this?" Kyoka asked taking the envelope suddenly getting a bit of déjà vu. "Did you get me more concert tickets?" She asked him opening up the envelope and Kyoka’s eyes went wide as it was tickets to the next 6 Deep Dope concert shows with VIP passes. "Izuku." She whispered as she looked at the tickets in her hands like they were made of gold.
Izuku just smiled. "Mona reached out to me the other day about them and I was planning on giving them to you after the USJ, but well you know that ended." He said scratching the back of his head.
Kyoka took a deep breath and placed the tickets back into the envelope before placing them inside her inner jacket pocket. She looked around and spotted an empty corner in the back of the shop and pulled him back there. She gently pushed Izuku back against the wall as she looked around one last time before wrapping her arms around Izuku's neck. "You are one of a kind, Izzy," Kyoko murmured as she placed a tender kiss on his lips.
Izuku placed his hands on her hips as he returned Kyoka’s kiss. After he pulled back slightly Izuku smiled at her. “I’m glad to see you liked your surprise Kyo.” He reached up and ran a hand through her hair. “You’re amazing.” He told her gently.
Kyoka playfully jabbed him with his should with one of her jacks. “Flatter.” She said feeling her face warm up as she laid her head against his chest. She listened to Izuku’s heartbeat feeling comfortable in his arms.
They stayed that way for a few minutes until Kyoka heard something and pulled him back to look through the different albums. Izuku looked to see one of the workers was staring at them funny, but they just shrugged and when back to putting away a stack of CDs
Kyoka continued to show Izuku a few other of her favorite bands she found some of their best CDs. Izuku picked them up as she handed them to him as he wanted to add them to his growing music collection.
"Well, this was a lot of fun," Izuku said grinning as he held the stack of CDs in front of him.
Kyoka smirked at him. "This is just the beginning Izuku. I plan on showing you even more amazing bands to introduce you to." She told him leading him up to the register.
“I’m looking forward to it.” Izuku grinned as he set the stack on the counter. The cashier rang up the total and Izuku paid with his card. “Thank you.” He told the cashier as he picked up his purchases and started walking out of the store with Kyoka.
Kyoka looked at her phone and smiled. “Let go find a place to sit down for what time I have left.” She suggested pointing to a bench not far from the store.
“Ok. Let’s go.” Izuku said following her over to the bench. They got comfortable and leaned back against the wall. They stayed like that just enjoying each other company.
Kyoka rested her head on his shoulder smiling the entire time.After a while, Kyoka phone chimed and Kyoka let out a sigh. "Guess my turn is up." She got up and stretched with her hands over her head.
Izuku couldn't help but stare at her as she stretched. "Lead the way Kyoka." He said hoping she didn't catch his heart skip staring at her.
Kyoka just smirked as she linked arms with him. She stretched in front of him on purpose and was happy to his heartbeat increase.
Izuku spotted Toru waiting in front of a nice clothing store. Kyoka grabbed his bag of CDs and peeled off to meet with the others. Izuku smiled as Toru was getting excited as he got closer. "Hey, Toru. I take it you want me to go shopping with you?" He asked gesturing to the store in front of him.
Toru nodded her head quickly causing her ponytail to bounce around. “Well I can see myself after all these years and I want to try on clothes while looking at myself in a mirror.” She cursed her skin shifted a slight pink with excitement and embarrassment.
Izuku pulled her into a hug. "I am glad that you got your wish of being visible Toru." He felt her return his hug tightly. "Now come on let's get going." He said breaking the hug and offering Toru his arm. "Shall we, my Lady?"
Toru flushed a bright red from head to toe. "Y-Yeah." She replied latching onto his arm. She wrapped her tail around Izuku's waist barely reaching his opposite hip. She led him into the store and lead him to the nearest rack of dresses. Izuku watched her look through each rack and hand him a stack of clothes to hold for her.
One of the ladies working the shop came over with a smile. “Hello. My name is Usagi. Are you finding everything alright?” She asked Toru.
Toru nodded her head. "So far, I have a hard time finding clothes for my tail," Toru explained gesturing to her curly tail. "Some of the ones I have picked out already have them." She pointed to the dresses that Izuku was holding for her.
Usagi nodded her head. "If you would like my quirk lets me alter clothing to our customers’ needs for a small fee.” She explained handing Toru a card with the prices.
Toru took the card from Usagi and nodded her head. It was not that expensive and it would let her pick what she wanted to wear. She looked at Izuku and started sorting through them and then ran to get a few others and handed them to Usagi. "So, you can tailor these to fit me?"
Usagi looked over the different outfits before nodding her head. “Oh, these will be easy to tailor. How about you have your boyfriend go sit over in the waiting area that will allow for you to show off your outfits.” She teased the young couple.
Izuku nodded his head. “I’ll head over there Toru and wait for you.” He said planting a small kiss on her cheek.
Toru just smiled as she watched him walk away. “Can I ask you about one more thing?” Toru asked her looking at another part of the store.
Usagi had a knowing glint in her eyes after looking at what the young girl was staring at. “Yes, but I have an idea of what you are wanting me to tailor."
Toru just smiled at her and ran to grab a few things.
Izuku was looking at the press release again that Miruko and Ryukyu had made earlier in the morning about their new agency when he spotted Toru heading into the changing room with Usagi right behind her. He put away his phone and waited for Toru to walk out. A few minutes later she walked out in a bright red sundress that fit her perfectly. "Wow, Toru." He said as she turned around letting the dress flair a bit.
"Thanks," Toru said giving him a bright smile. "I wanted something a bit bright."
"I can't wait to see more of what you picked out," Izuku said taking his phone out of his pocket. "Do you want me to take pictures for you?
Toru nodded excitedly. “Yes Please!” She said posing for a picture before heading back into the changing room.
Usagi looked at Izuki giving him an approving look. “That was really sweet of you to do for your girlfriend.” She told him gesturing towards the changing room. “Most guys would have been complaining about having to sit here.”
Izuku shrugged. “It makes her happy, so I can let her model her clothes if she wants to." He said with complete honesty and sincerity.
Usagi just shook her head. “I’m going to help you girlfriend. Just wait here.”
Izuku took pictures and comments on each of her outfits from dresses to blouses and jeans. He let her pose and showed them to her to see if she wanted them retaken. Toru was a ball of sunshine the entire time. She got excited with each new outfit and would blush at Izuku's compliments. The staff around them just smiled at the adorable pair as their laughter was infectious and brightened the mood of the store.
Toru had just shown off a silver formal dress that was beautiful and wrapped her tail around her waist like a belt. "I have one last thing to show off and then we can take my stuff to the register." She said after Izuku showed her the picture. She darted into the changing room and Izuku got his phone ready. Usagi whispered something into the ears of her coworkers and they all started grinning.
Izuku was not ready when the door opened and Toru stepped out in a two-piece bathing suit that almost looked like it was painted on. It was jet black that stood out against her pale skin and fit her perfectly. "What do you think I~zu~ku~." Toru purred as she sent him a wink.
Izuku clicked the picture out of reflex, but his mind crashed at looking at her in the bathing suit.
Izuku.exe has suffered a serious error and has to be restarted. Please wait until the system has rebooted to resume operations.
Toru started laughing at watching her boyfriend's face turn bright red and was at a loss for words. She moved over and stole a kiss from him. "Thanks, Izuku, this was what I was going for with this." She darted back to get dressed.
Izuku snapped out of it as Toru was getting changed and turned to see the staff smiling at him. He sat patiently as Toru can out with her arms full of clothes. “Let me get that for you Toru.” Izuku offered as she was struggling to hold the large pile.
"Thank you Izuku," Toru said hugging him from behind. "You are the best boyfriend."
“I try.” He said leading her up to the register.
After everything was rung up Izuku tried to pay for her clothing, but Toru put her foot down on her offer. "I appreciate the offer, but I can pay for this," Toru said handing Usagi her debit card. "Next time you can pay."
Izuku knew that he would not win this argument and just nodded his head in agreement. "Yes, dear." He carried her bags for her as they left the store and Toru's phone when off.
"They want to meet us at the food court for lunch," Toru said leading him in that direction.
Izuku nodded his head. "Sound good to me." He said with a grin as Toru wrapped her tail around his wrist as she leaned against his shoulder. It was just about a perfect day for him.
"My, my. Is that that you Izuku?" A female voice called out from behind him.
Izuku froze mid-step has his heart clenched. 'No, not her please not now.' He said to himself as he turned around to see a girl with dark brown hair and eyes. She was dressed in expensive clothing and had too much make-up on her face. "It is you." He said have to swallow. "Hello, Kaede. It's been a while." He replied in a strained voice.
Toru felt Izuku tense and send a message to the other girls. "Izuku," Toru whispered in his ear. "Who is this girl?"
Izuku felt a tremor in his hand starting to form. “She was the first girl I ever date. It was back in my second year of middle school." He whispered back to her. "Let's just say it didn't end well for me."
Kaede started walking closer to him. “I saw you on the news recently and I have to say you grew up handsome.” She purred. “Well I was going to look you up later, but this is perfect.”
"What is?" Izuku asked feeling Toru's tail tighten around his wrist. He appreciated her support. He saw in sending another message on her phone. He figured she was getting the others to come to them.
Kaede just smiled at him. "I am willing to take you back as my boyfriend of course." She said as if it was the simplest thing in the world.
Toru and Izuku looked at her with confusion. “What?”

Chapter Text
Middle school 2 years ago.
Izuku smiled as he walked into school that morning. It had been a week since he had started seeing Kaede Sasaki. She was the most popular girl in his grade and she had been taking time out of her day to spend it with him. He helped her with her homework and carried her bad for her. He had brought her flowers as a way to show her that he appreciated her kindness. Kaede had told him that something special would be happening at lunch today. She patted Izuku on the cheek and smiled as she left the classroom. Izuku hurried to his locker to get the flowers and hurried to the cafeteria.
Izuku spotted Kaede and her friends at their usual table. He walked over and held out the banquet of her favorite flowers. “H-Here Kaede.” He stuttered trying to keep his hands from shaking.
Kaede took the flowers with a smile and set them down on the table in front of her tray. "Thank you." She said holding out a hand to one of her friends. "Told you. Now pay up." The other girl grumbled pulling out a hand full of bills and placing them in Kaede's hand. "Easiest money I have ever made."
Izuku looked at Kaede with a confused look on his face. "W-What is going on?" He asked feeling a pain in his chest. "W-Why did she hand you money?"
Kaede's smile turned into a cruel grin. "I made a bet that I could get you to fall for me and give me flowers in less than a week." She said gesturing to the flowers on the table. "You brought me flowers in just 5 days." She then waved the money in front of his face. "Thanks, Izuku. I guess you are useful from something after all.
Izuku looked around to see the entire cafeteria looking at him with smiles on their faces. “B-But I thought that you uh.” He started trying to find the words as he felt his heart starting to break.
Kaede started laughing and soon the entire cafeteria joined in. “You thought that I liked you?” She laughed even harder as she took the flowers on the table and threw them on the floor at Izuku’s feet. “I am heiress to the Sasaki family. I will eventually marry a powerful and wealthy man.” She sneered at Izuku. “You’re just a Quirkless freak that nobody will ever love.”
Izuku's heart shattered as he ran from the cafeteria with tears running down his face. He could still hear the laughter from the cafeteria. After that Izuku stayed home 'sick' for a week barely getting out of bed. He didn't want to talk about it. He just laid in bet wallowing in the fact he was so easily tricked by Kaede. When he eventually returned to school Izuku kept his head down and ignored the laughter as best he could. Kacchan was partially cruel to him those following weeks after Kaede humiliated him until he got bored and found something else to insult Izuku with.
Toru glared at the arrogant girl standing in front of her. She could feel Izuku's hand trembling with her tail. She sent an SOS to the other girls and knew they were on their way. "Why would he want you as his girlfriend?" Toru asked looking Kaede over. "I don't see anything special standing in front of me."
Kaede's eye twitched at her insult. "I am heiress to the Sasaki family. My Father is a high-ranking executive with Deterant and my Mother is a member of the board at Sasori Incorporated.” She said pointing at herself. "Any man would kill for a chance to be with me." She glared at Toru with a look of disgust and who are you supposed to be.
Toru smiled as she leaned her head against Izuku's shoulder. "I'm his girlfriend." She said smirking as she watched Kaede face turn a dark red. “Now if you will excuse us, you are interrupting our date.” She tried to lead them away so she could check on Izuku.
"W-What you're dating him?" Kaede asked after she got over the surprise. “You can do that! I want him now!”
Izuku patted Toru on the arm. “L-Lets just go Toru.” He said quietly as he wanted to get away from Kaede and try to regain his composure. Just being around her was bring back a lot of bad memories.
"Hey, I am talking to you." Kaede snarled as she started reaching out trying to grab Izuku by his shoulder. Before she even got close to Izuku a hand gripped her wrist tightly. She turned to see a brunette with pink blush marks on her cheeks glaring at her. “Unhand me you brute. Do you know who I am?" Kaede hissed trying to break free from the brunette's grip.
Ochako looked the girl over before letting go of her wrist. “I don’t know who you are, but don’t touch him.” She said narrowing her eyes. “We don’t know what kind of disease you might have.” Ochako didn’t know what had happened, but she could tell that this girl had upset her Izuku and that was enough for her.
Momo moved over to stand in front of Izuku. “Hello, I-Zu-Ku...." She purred before placing a tender kiss on his lips. Momo smiled as she watched some of the light return to Izuku's eyes. Momo then shoved his face into her cleavage "I've got you, darling." She said softly while giving the interloper a death glare. Momo wanted to rip this little girl apart, but that could wait for the time being.
"I heard enough bimbo," Kyoko said crossing her arms as she stood next to Ochako. "Whatever you have planned with Izuku, it ends now." Her jacks were acting all a pair of snakes ready to strike. She pointed in the direction of the exit. "Leave and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out." After Izuku was so sweet and kind to her earlier, Kyoko was not afraid to knock this bitch out.
Kaede looked incredulous at the new arrivals and was glaring at the tall girl with black hair. “Unhand him you slut! I'm claiming him as mine.” She told the girls standing in front of her. “I have a use for him.”
Pony walked over to Izuku and after getting a nod from Momo, Pony pulled a blushing Izuku out of the taller girl's bosom and hugged him tightly. "All better?" She asked as a blushing Izuku started nodding his head. "Good." She looked over and figured she could break that bitch in half, but she didn't want to upset Izuku by getting arrested.
"Thanks, Pony. Momo." Izuku said. His voice getting a little stronger. Having them around was helping with his anxiety. "Sorry, you all got pulled into this."
"Zuzu. It's fine." Mei said taking Pony's spot of hugging him. "It's the least we can do. We are here for you." She glanced over to see the skank trying to get past the other girls. Mei wished she had brought a few of her babies with her to deal with the trash. 'well maybe just the sledgehammer.' Mei thought to herself.
Mina narrowed her eyes. “You’re outnumbered and not wanted here." She said coldly. "Just take your cheap ass makeup and leave." Mina was angry. This skank did something that hurt the sweetest boy in the world and she would not stand for that.
Kaede growled in frustration at the girls in front of them. "Who do you whores think you are?" She pointed a finger at each one of them. "My family is rich and important while that Quirkless freak should be lucky for me to want his attention." This was not going as planned. She figured that Izuku would jump at the chance to get back with her. "You're all nobodies. the dirt of the bottom of my shoes."
Izuku felt a fire burning in his chest as Kaede was insulting his girlfriends. He didn't like the way she was talking to them.
Setsuna was the last to arrive with Eri and Raphtalia each holding one of her hands. "Here we go, girls." She said gently. She arrived to find some trashy girl facing off against the other girls. She walked over to stand by Izuku. "Here he is just like I promised."
“Papa!” Raphtalia said hurrying over to latch on to his leg. She could tell he was sad and she wanted to make him smile again.
Eri hurried over to do the same. “Is it time for lunch Papa?” She asked shyly. She could that her mama's were angry about something, but she just wanted her Papa.
Izuku knelt down to hug them both. "Yeah, we're going to find something tasty for us to eat real soon girls." He said feeling a bit more like himself having his daughters and girlfriends around him. He glanced over to see that it was starting to get ugly. He wanted to ignore his cruel ex and just go about his day.
“Is this some sort of sick joke?” Kaede asked incredulously looking at Izuku hugging two small children. "He can't be their father. He is too young and they are mutants freaks." She said looking disgusted at the children. "Why waste your time with creatures like them anyway!" She said ignoring the angry faces of the girls standing in front of her. “They would be better off in some orphanage.”
The girls were about to jump Kaede for what she just said about their daughters. Setsuna pulled the girls into a hug as Eri started to cry and Raphtalia was on the brink of crying as well. Ochako and Pony rushed over to help console them.
"What did you just say?" Izuku asked coldly. He turned to look at Kaede. He had taken a lot of abuse from people in his life. Teachers from Aldera. Bullies that beat him up and left him on the ground bleeding. He had taken everything the world had thrown at him and just taken it. She just crossed the line. "Did you just call them freaks and say they would be better off in an orphanage?" He narrowed his eyes as he finally reached the limit of his patience.
"Of course!" Kaede replied confused by the sudden change in his demeanor. "You have surrounded yourself with these sluts and the freaks." She gestured to herself. "Whereas I come from good breeding and I have no imperfections."
Izuku took a few steps forward. He was unaware that his eyes were glowing a bright green started at Kaede. "First off, they are my daughters. I was not there for them when they were born, but they call me their Papa and I am happy that they choose to call me that." He looked back at his daughters to see them giving him a smile at his words. "I will choose them over any kind of money or power any day.
He gestured to his girlfriends. " Secondly, these girls cared about me before I made the announcement yesterday with Principal Nezu." He informed Kaede pointed to each of his girlfriends. "They like me for who I am and they don't care about my fame and make my daughters happy." He looked at each of them to see they were smiling and a few of them were blushing.
"On last thing Kaede," Izuku said as he wanted to be done with her. "I would never get back with you even if you were the last woman in the world." He looked her over from head to toe. "You are ugly both inside and out." He turned away from her. "Don't ever bother me or my daughter ever again."
His girlfriends were shocked, to say the least at Izuku going off on the shallow woman. They were also stunned to see his eyes glowing with power as he spoke. Momo felt something awaken inside her as he spoke. Ochako face was blushing bright red as him being so assertive. Toru was shifting colors as she was angry with Kaede for insulting her daughters, but enjoyed Izuku putting that skank in her place. Pony smirked and wanted to drag him off for some more alone time. Kyoka had to admit it was hot to see Izzy take control like that. Mei just smirked at the girl being put in her place. no one insulted Zuzu's family. Mina just grinned at seeing the Gyaru being put in her place. She may need to go get a change of panties Setsuna made sure that the girls were ok before she looked over at Momo and gave her a big grin.
Momo and Setsuna broke away from the group and stood in front of the stunned Kaede. Setsuna was still grinning as she rested her hands on her hips. "You have no idea how badly you screwed up." She said with a laugh.
Kaede just glared back at the green-haired girl. "How is that freak." She spat out in anger.
"My name is Setsuna Tokage." She said watching the surprised look appear on Kaede's face. "yes, I am from THAT Tokage family." She pointed to her best friend. "This is my best friend. Why don't you introduce yourself? It is the proper thing to do after all."
Momo stood tall as she looked down on Kaede. "My name is Momo Yaoyorozu and by the look on your face, you recognize my family's name as well." Momo smiled as the girl went even paler and started to shake like a leaf. "I am only going to say this once. Leave and never bother Izuku or any of us ever again." She leaned closer to Kaede to whisper. "Or your family will rue the day they ever crossed mine." When Kaede didn't move right away, Momo pointed towards the exit. "This is the part where you run away."
Kaede made a beeline for the exit and never looked back as she hurried away.
"Wow," Izuku said after watching Momo send his ex running like the devil was chasing after her. 'Why do I find that hot?' He asked himself before turning to look at his girlfriends. "I'm sorry that you all got dragged into this." He knelt down and scooped up his daughters to hold them close to his chest.
"Only you would apologize for that Izuku," Ochako said giving him a deadpan expression. "It was her fault, not yours." She moved closer and hugged him and the girls.
"Papa," Eri said looking up at him. "I'm hungry."
"Me too Papa," Raphtalia says as she rubs her tummy. "Can we get lunch now?"
This causes Izuku and his girlfriends to laugh at the little tanuki breaking the tension.
"Aright let’s go find something to eat." He said looking at the group. "Any suggestions?" He asked.
Mina raised her hand. "I know just the place." She said pointing to a restaurant in the distance. "Follow me."
After a short walk, they reached a family restaurant that had a table large enough to seat all of them easily. Momo flashed the waiter her credit card before asking for a private room. They were all led to a room that was normally used for parties. After everyone got seated and menus were placed on the table the waiter left the room. Eri was sitting between Momo and Ochako after the little unicorn asked them if she could sit with them. Raphtalia sat between Setsuna and Toru after asking them the same thing. Pony and Kyoka had put Izuku between them with Mei sitting across from him. After the waiter returned to take their drink orders everyone placed their food orders after quickly looking over the menu.
After the waiter left to place their orders Kyoka slipped her hand into his and gave it a small squeeze. "Izzy." She said, softy. "I heard a bit from the horrible girl said, but what happened between the two of you?" She wanted to know more so she could help him.
Izuku took a deep breath and let out a long sigh. "Well, I knew her from my old middle school." He started to tell them all about how she tricked him into thinking he was dating her and how it ended. He kept his eyes on the table as he told them his embarrassing past. "That was the only time before I met all of you that I let someone get that close to me."
He felt Pony latch on to him and started rubbing circles into his back. He looked over to see Kyoka's face flickering between heartache for him and anger he assumed was aimed towards Kaede. He looked around the table to see the others were not fairing any better. "I know you are all upset about what she did to me, but it's over now. I just want to move past it. Please."
Ochako let out a sigh before smiling at him. "For you Izuku. I will let it go," She said raising a finger. "But if she comes back around all bets are off."
Mei nodded her head. "Ok, Zuzu." She said crumpling up a napkin. "I won't build a baby to deal with the horrible girl."
Mina just shook her head. "You are one of a kind Izuku." She said looking at him giving him a smile and thumbs up. "I'll do that for you."
"Same here," Toru said while running her fingers through Raphtalia's hair smiled as the tanuki started to tilt her head further into Toru's hand.
Setsuna frowned slightly at his request before she sighs. "I will let this drop for now. Izuku." She aid pointing a finger at him. "But I agree with the notion that if she comes back then she is fair game.
Pony leaned up to kiss Izuku's cheek. "I agree with them." She said softly. "If she comes back I will slap that bitch." She finished in English. She did not want to swear around Eri and Raphtalia, but since they had not started to learn English yet, she thought it would be ok.
Kyoka nuzzled into his side. "You're too good for this world." She said resting her head on his shoulder. "I won't do anything to her as long as she stays away for you." Kyoka looked to see the other girls nodding their heads in agreement.
"I will not retaliate against her," Momo said in an aristocratic tone. She had already sent a message to her mother with the girl's name as they walked over to the restaurant. She would let the matter drop. Her mother was a different story.
Izuku let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you." He said smiling at his girlfriends. He looked around the table. "Ok, enough sad talk. let's talk about something else. Eri, Raphtalia. Did are you both having fun so far?" He asked his daughters as he watched their eyes light up with delight.
Soon the room was filled with laughter and conversation that brightened the mood in the room. Izuku listened as his daughters told him about the neat things they had seen so far. A little while later the waiter returned with their food and everyone dug in gusto.
After everyone had finished their lunch there was a short battle on who would pay the bill. Momo just smiled as the waiter returned with her card and the receipt. As they left the restaurant Ochako held Izuku's hand as she led him off for their time together. Eri and Raphtalia gave him a quick hug before heading off to join their other Mama's.
Izuku looked at Ochako. "Where do you want to go?" He asked as they walked around for a few minutes.
Ochako smiled at him and pointed to a large store that sold Hero merchandise. "Well, you have been taking everyone where they wanted to go." She said giving him a wink. "I am taking us to somewhere you would like to go."
"I am good if you want to go somewhere else," Izuku said trying to get her to pick something for herself. She put other people's needs in front of her own. That is one of the things he loved about her. He wanted to treat her like a queen, but she got uncomfortable when the subject came to money.
Ochako gave his hand a slight squeeze. "I am into Heroes as well Izuku." She started pulling him towards the store. "Come on!" She said excitedly as she led him inside.
Izuku just chuckled as he hurried inside with his girlfriend.
The store was just starting to get busy and Izuku spotted a few new heroes that had merchandise being released but Izuku was not impressed with their debuts. He looked around at a few of the older statues that had wanted for his collection. He had not gotten any new All Might merchandise in a while. He looked over to see Ochako looking through the clearance section of the store. He watched her find a few shirts that had Thirteen on them in her size.
He was about to say something when she pointed at a corner of the store. "Izuku, look over there." She said quietly.
Izuku looked over to see it was a sign that said Power Rangers. He saw a bunch of kids a little older than Eri and Raphtalia looking through the sweatshirt and other clothing apparel of his Ranger suits. It was a good mixture of boys and girls as they were in awe of the apparel.
"Cool, they have the Pink Ranger now!"
"Green Ranger is still the coolest."
"Yellow Ranger is so cool. I love her song"
Izuku smiled as he watched the kids getting excited about the Ranger apparel. It reminded him of when he was younger and went shopping with his Mom. He would rush over to see what new Hero shirts had come out. Izuku looked over to see Ochako had taken her phone out of her pocket to take a picture of the kids holding the different Ranger apparel. Izuku noticed that she was still using an old flip phone.
While Ochako was taking pictures, another shopper bumped into her shoulder causing her to drop her phone. She tried to catch it while it was falling but missed it as it hit the floor with a crack. She knelt to pick up the pieces of her phone. "Oh no." She said softly as she tried to put it back together. "Fudge."
"Let's head over to a cell phone store and see if we can get it fixed." Izuku offered as Ochako went to purchase the shirts she found. He carried the bag for her as they headed out to a phone store. Ochako rested her head against Izuku's shoulder while she cradled her broken phone in her hands.
The guy at the phone store started laughing after Ochako handed the broken phone to him. "This thing is too old and I don't think anyone makes the parts for this model anymore." The guy said looking over that parts. "I can get your contacts and stuff off the memory card, but you will need a new phone." The guy pointed to the phone displays. "Take a look around."
Ochako whined as she pinched the bridge of her nose. Phones were expensive and her old phone was the cheapest her family could afford at the time. With all the new business contracts, thanks to Izuku and Principal Nezu had helped alleviate a lot of their money issues, but Ochako was still cautious about spending that much money on herself. "Let's see what they have." She said looking at her broken phone one last time before looking at new phones displays with Izuku.
After a quick look, she decided against any of the top-of-the-line phones and started looking at the cheapest phones she could find. They didn't have any flip phones, so she was forced to look at the different Smartphones. She was looking at one of the cheapest phones she could find when she heard Izuku call out for her.
"Hey Ochako," Izuku called out to her pointing at a point in front of him. "Come check this one out."
Ochako walked over and gasped. It was a phone that was based on her favorite Heroine Thirteen. It was white and had Thirteen's logo on the back of the phone and exclusive notification sounds from the Heroine herself. She gingerly picked it up and looked it over. It was amazing. Ochako looked at the price tag and immediately deflated and put the phone back down. "This one costs too much." She said sadly. She was about to walk away when Izuku grabbed her hand.
"Ochako," he said quietly and gently pulled her close to him. "I'll pay for your new phone." He smiled at her. "That way I know sure that you have a good phone."
"Izuku I don't need any handouts; besides you should save your money for other things," Ochako said trying to convince him not to spend that kind of money on her.
"Ochako, this is not a handout. This is me buying one of the women that I love, something nice because she deserves it." He said smiling at her. Izuku took his phone out of his pocket. "I haven't told any of the other girls this but here look at this." Izuku logs into his bank account and showed her the balance.
He watches her eyes go wide and holds a finger to his lips and gives her a wink. "I have more than enough money to take care of my Space Queen, and if it helps you feel better then consider it an investment, I want to make sure I can get a hold of you and make sure you're safe."
Ochako just looked at him frozen in place.
"Uh, Ochako?" Izuku said cautiously. "Are you ok? I'm sorry if I offend y-." He is cut off as she pulled him into a passionate kiss. Izuku wraps his arms around her and returned her kiss with just as much passion.
She eventually pulled back and smiled at him. "You love me?" She asked feeling like her heart was going to beat out of her chest.
"Yes," Izuku said as he caressed her face with his hand. "I love you." Izuku's smile became brighter. "You are the first one I have told that to."
"I love you too. Izuku." Ochako said being careful to hold Izuku without her pinkies touching him. She heard people talking around her and she looked around to see people cooing at their adorable moment. She quickly hid her face in his shoulder in embarrassment.
"Let's get your phone and get out of here." He said as he patted her on the back. After he felt Ochako nod her head. "I've got you." Izuku waved down one of the employees and asked them to ring up Ochako's new phone. After the phone was paid for, they transferred everything off Ochako's old memory card to the new phone. Ochako was smiling ear to she was leaning against Izuku's arm as they left the store. She had her new phone in her pocket.
"Thank you Izuku," Ochako said leaning up to place a kiss on his cheek. Her new phone chimed and she let out a sigh. "My time is up. Let me see where Momo is at." She looked at her phone and told him where they needed to go.
"You're welcome Ochako," Izuku said following Ochako to where they needed to meet Momo.
Izuku spotted Momo waiting outside a large book store. He waved at her as Ochako stole a kiss from him before heading off to catch up with the others.
"Hey Momo," Izuku said as he walked over to stand in front of her. "I don't think I have been to this book store before." He said looking into the store to see a paradise for anyone who loved to read.
Momo smiled at him and pulled Izuku close to her side. "Yes, it just opened recently." She said leading them inside the store. She had been waiting patiently for her turn with him and after finding out what that scarlet woman had done to him, she wanted to make sure Izuku knew that she cared for him.
Izuku was having a good time as they went down each row of shelving looking at the various books they were interested in. He found a few new Sci-fi books that caught his attention. He noticed that Momo was leaning against his shoulder or would place a hand on his shoulder as she looked at a book on another shelf. Izuku was about an inch shorter standing next to Momo and was used to looking up to talk with her. He always enjoyed spending time with her whether it was discussing quirks with her in detail or just talking about the various books they had read.
Momo smiled as she caught Izuku's eyes drift down to her chest a few times as she reached to grab a book on the top shelf she was pressed her chest into his face slightly. Momo knew he was trying his best not to stare. Izuku had always been a gentleman around her and their first unofficial date at the cafe all those weeks ago was still one of her favorite memories with him. "Are you ready to head to the next row Izuku?" Momo asked trying her best to keep an innocent look on her face.
"Y-Yeah," Izuku said placing a book back on the shelf as he started to head for the next row. "He offered his arm to Momo. "Shall we?"
Momo beamed at him as she took his arm and went to the next aisle with him. She felt like she was in one of her romance novels. She was trying her best not to drag Izuku off to a corner of the shop and make out with him. 'There will be time for that later.' She told herself as they worked their way to the romance section of the book store. Momo was about to walk past them when Izuku gave her arm a gentle squeeze.
"Momo. Don't you need to get the next book in your book series?" Izuku asked her pointing to a row of books. "I think you got the first two the last time we were at the book store." He had made a mental note of what books she liked to read for gifts for her later on.
Momo flushed a bit as she nodded her head and grabbed the next few books in the series. She moved in front of him and 'accidentally' dropped one of her books. "Oops. I'll get it." She said bending at the waist with Izuku standing behind him to pick up her book. As she stood back up, Momo looked back to see Izuku had averted his gaze, but his face was bright red.
Izuku was cursing the fact that he was a hormones 15 y/o boy. Each time Momo touch him or brushed against him, he felt like his heart was going to beat out of his chest. Each of his girlfriends was beautiful in their own right. He was trying his best to make sure to treat them with respect and when Momo bent over in front of him his eyes went to her rear end. He quickly looked away as she stood back up.
Momo continued to her little tease for a few more rows when she spotted a small area in the store where customers could sit and read with a bit of privacy. Momo lead Izuku and had him sit down before she looked around and straddled his lap.
"M-Momo." Izuku squeaked out as he looked at his girlfriend. Momo gave him a sly wink. She gently grabbed his hands and placed them on her hips. Izuku felt his face starting to get warm. "What if someone sees us?" He asked her feeling trapped.
"It will be ok Darling." Momo purred as she leaned forward pressing her breasts against his chest. She nibbled on his ear before whispering. "I told you If you are a good boy then you would get a very special surprise." Momo moved her head back to look him in the eye. "Surprise." She said before kissing him with all the passion she could muster. When she felt him return her kiss she started to slip her tongue into his mouth.
Izuku's mind felt hazy as he made out with Momo as he tried to battle his tongue against hers He tightened his grip on her hips. He had kissed his girlfriends all day, but this was more intense than usual. He felt Momo slip a hand into his hair as her other hand rested against his cheek.
Momo let out a moan as her phone chimed. She knew her time was up and unfortunately had to end her make-out session. "Our time is up darling." She said with a sigh as she got off Izuku's lap and fixed her shirt and skirt. "I need to pay for my books."
"O-Oh, ok," Izuku mumbled as he started to regain his senses and quickly crossed his legs to hide a small problem. He needed a few minutes to calm down before he could stand up. "I-uh will catch up with you in a couple of minutes." He said unable to look her in the eyes.
Momo glance down and smirked before picking up her stack of books. "Ok, darling. I will see you in a few." Momo said with a knowing smirk, she blew him a kiss before heading towards the register. Momo was very proud of herself to get that kind of reaction out of her boyfriend.
Izuku let out a breath before looking up at the ceiling waiting until he stood up to meet up with Momo.
After Izuku had cooled off when spotted Momo at the register as she took her bag of books from the cashier. She walked over and linked arms with him as they walked out of the book store to meet up with Setsuna.
Setsuna was grinning at him as Momo dropped him off in front of the karaoke club after planting a kiss on Izuku's cheek. She looked over at her boyfriend to see he was a bit flustered and walked over to throw an arm around his shoulder. "Hey Izu. Are you ready to spend time with little old me?" She asked with a big toothy grin.
Izuku smiled at her. "I sure am, Setsuna." He said wrapping an arm around his waist. He looked at the karaoke bar. "Are you going to sing for me?"
Setsuna winked at her boyfriend. "Yep," she said adding an extra pop to the p. She led him inside and waved at the lady behind the counter. Setsuna open a door to room 17 and gestured for Izuku to go in ahead of her. She had to admit it was pretty nice. there was a large couch that could easily fit. "Ever been to a place like this before?" She asked looking through the book of songs.
"No." Izuku said shaking his head, "No one to go with and I didn't want to come here alone." He admitted to her. He was wanted to go, but with no friends, it was pointless for him.
Setsuna gave him a sad smile before setting the book down and giving him a tight hug. "I'm going to sing for you Izu." She looked him in the eye. "I don't sing for just anybody." She went over and punched in the song code and waited for it to start.
"Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
If I can't help falling in love with you?"
Setsuna was swaying to the music. She sent him a wink as she started the next verse of the song. She closed her eyes and let the music take her away.
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you"
Izuku sat in awe as he listened to Setsuna sing a love song for him. She was really good and he would compare her voice to be on par with Kyoka's in terms of talent. He watched as his girlfriend continued to sway and moved to the song. When the song ended she looked nervous until Izuku gave her a standing ovation.
"Setsuna!' Izuku said excitedly. "That was awesome! Your voice is incredible!" He was bouncing up and down at finding out that she had such an amazing voice.
Setsuna's face flushed a bright red and got a little embarrassed. "Was I really that good?" She asked him shyly. Setsuna always put up a brave front when it came to what people thought of her. Momo had been her best friend for years, but her other classmates were not as accepting of her appearance. Most people wouldn't even shake her hand because of her quirk. But here was Izuku that looked at her like she was special and thought she had an amazing singing voice.
"Would I lie to you Setsuna?" Izuku asked giving her a bright smile.
Setsuna set the microphone now and moved quickly to hug her boyfriend. "Thank you," she said quietly.
"Anytime my Dinosaur Queen," Izuku replied as he patted her on the back.
They stayed like that for a few minutes until Setsuna moved to get the song book and handed it to Izuku. "Here Izuku," Setsuna said waiting for him to take the book. "Will you sing a song for me please?"
He started looking through the book nodding his head. "Ok, I'm not as good as you." He found a song that he knew and listened to all the time. "I found one."
"Sing for me please Izu?" Setsuna asked giving him a slight pout and puppy dog eyes.
Izuku punched in the song code and took a deep breath before the song started. He wasn't sure how well he would be able to sing, but he wanted to make Setsuna smile and he would do that even if he had to embarrass himself. He closed his eyes for a moment before the song started and Izuku started singing.
"I found a love for me
Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own"
Setsuna was blown away by the song he chose. He doing pretty well and the song made her heart flutter. She felt herself blushing hard as she looked into his emerald eyes as Izuku sang to her. Setsuna felt the rest of the world fall away except for the two of them. As the song came to an end Izuku got a bit shy and looked at her.
"How was that?" Izuku asked rubbing his arm, as he waited for her to say something.
Setsuna got off the couch and walked over to him and pulled him into an aggressive kiss by his shirt.
Izuku was a bit shocked at first, but wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled Setsuna closer to his chest.
Setsuna pulled back as she looked into Izuku's eyes. "That was pretty good Izu." She moved him towards the couch. "You think I'm perfect?" She asked getting shy.
"Yes, Setsuna," Izuku told her running his fingers through her hair. "I think you look perfect just the way you are."
Setsuna pulled out her phone and set a timer. She guided Izuku to lay down on the couch and snuggled into his side. 'C-Can we just stay like this until the timer goes off?" She asked burrowing her head into the crook of his neck.
"Anything you want Setsuna," Izuku replied pulling her close and started running his fingers through her hair again. "Tell me if you want me to stop."
"Never.'" Setsuna said relaxing against his side at his actions.
Before either of them were ready for their cuddling to end, her alarm went off. They slowly detangled themselves and straightened out their clothing. Setsuna dropped off the key as they headed out ignoring the smile from the lady behind the counter. Setsuna looked at her phone and smiled. "They are waiting for us at the theater." She leaned against him. "I guess we need to meet up with them."
"Well, let's not keep them waiting," Izuku said leading them back towards the theater and the other girls.
Izuku spotted them standing off to the side. He could see that Raphtalia was talking animatedly to Toru about something while Eri was hugging Ochako's leg. "Hey everyone," Izuku called out as he walked over to join them. “Everyone ready to grab our concessions and get seated?” He asked as his daughter rushed forward to hug him.
“Yeah, let’s get our stuff before this place starts getting busy," Toru said pointing to the empty snack counter.
"We should head in then," Momo said taking the tickets out of her purse.
After making sure everyone made a trip to the bathroom and then grabbing their drinks and snacks for the movie they went into the theater. Momo had paid for reserved seats and put Izuku in a couch-like seat. Eri and Raphtalia scrambled into the seat to sit on each side of him. Izuku smiled at them and made sure they were comfortable while they were waiting for the movie to start. Izuku looked over to see his girlfriend’s messaging on their phones and when Mina noticed him looking concerned she gave him thumbs up and wink. He nodded his head and went back to giving his daughters his full attention.

After the movie was over they waited for the post-credits and headed out of the theater. Ochako was listening to Eri talk excitedly to her about how cool she thought the movie was when her phone chimed. She reached into her pocket and saw that she had a message from Tsu.
Tsu: DO you know if Izuku has any plans tomorrow for Eri and Raphtalia? Kero.
Me: Let me ask. Why?
Tsu: I talked with Fumi and we are taking our sibling to the park tomorrow and were wondering if those two wanted to play with someone their own age. Kero.
Me: Oh, that would be adorable! One sec!
“Izuku, Tsu wants to know you want to bring Eri and Raphtalia to the park tomorrow.” She said showing him the message on her phone. “I am sure they would have a blast playing with play with a few kids their own age.”
Mina's eyes started to sparkle. "Oh, that would be so cute." She bounced on her feet a few times. "I can ask my dad to bring my siblings to the park as well." She looked at the group. "We can do a picnic before we have to head home."
"That sounds good to me," Toru said hoping to watch some many adorable chibi's playing together.
Izuku nodded his head. "Ok sounds like a plan. Have Tsu send us the detail and when they want to meet." He liked the idea of the girls making some friends. He was worried about that, but now he would have to thank Tsu personally.
"On it," Ochako said as her fingers flew across the screen.
Me: We would love to join you guys!
Me: Send us where and when!
Tsu: Will do Kero. See you all tomorrow.
Me: Will do. One thing Tsu.
Tsu: What’s that?
Me: Fumi?
Tsu: He is My Boyfriend. Later Kero.
Ochako blinked a few times. "Wow." She said looking at Izuku and the others. "Tsu and Fumikage are dating."
Mina pumped her arm a few times. “I knew it.” She squealed. “I have to get the details from her.
"Romance is in the air," Toru said slowly making her way to Izuku to hold his hand.
Kyoka covered her ears at Mina's squeal. "I feel sorry for poor Tsu." She grumbled cursing her hearing at times.
Pony looked at her watch. “As much fun as this is.” She said pointing at Eri and Raphtalia. “I think they are hungry and are ready to go home.”
Momo nodded her head in agreement. “How about we grab something on the way home and continue our movie night?” She asked as she scooped Eri up in her arms as the little unicorn’s stomach started to rumble. “Are you hungry honey?”
Eri shyly nodded her head. "Yeah, Mama."
Raphtalia scurried over to Setsuna and wanted to be picked up as well. "Mama Suna I'm hungry too." She said burrowing into Setsuna's neck.
"The girls have spoken," Setsuna said looking at the others. "I saw we find some grub."
Mei nodded her head in agreement. "What are we waiting for?" She asked dragging Izuku towards the door.
They headed out to their ride and after everyone piled in, they made a few stops to get a feast that everyone would enjoy before heading back to the Midoriya's apartment.
Nezu looked at his watch and decided to make a phone call. He had spoken with the parents and after getting them to agree to his idea, He needed to inform a teacher of changes coming to her classroom.
“Hello?”
“Hello Fuyumi,” Nezu said leaning back in his chair. “I am sorry to bother you on your day off.”
"Oh, it's ok sir. What can I do for you?"
"I wanted to let you know that you will have some new students joining your classroom starting Monday morning," Nezu said looking over the list in front of him. "There will be seven new students in your class with Eri and Raphtalia.
“Wow, that is incredible sir. I would love to look over their profiles so I can adjust my lesson plans for Monday accordingly.”
Nezu smiled at her. “I have already sent you an email with all of the new student profiles and photos.” He waited patiently for Fuyumi to look at the email.
“The Heroes of the Future Primary School?”
"Yes, this will be the pilot class for it," Nezu said proud of his idea. "This will allow for your current students to learn how to interact with children their own age, and if this is successful we can add more a whole Primary school and eventually a Middle school as well."
“I like what I see so far sir.”
“Can you arrive an hour early Monday so we may talk in person?” Nezu asked.
“I will be there sir.”
"Excellent," Nezu said smiling. "I will see you then. Have a nice weekend Fuyumi."
“You have a good weekend yourself, sir."
“I will thank you," Nezu said hanging up his phone. Now that the board was no longer stealing from the school, it was time for some big changes and This was just the first step along with the new addition of teachers and other much-needed support for the school. He grabbed another folder off the desk and reached out to Cementoss and have him get started on another project.
Izuku was carrying the last of the bags into the apartment. Everyone had several and He sent his girlfriends and daughter inside to get dinner set up while he carried everything inside. With the help of a few clones, it was quick work and wave at the driver as he left for the night. He arrived back upstairs and set the bags down to find everything was ready for them to dig in. After they finished eating they worked together to rebuild the nest as they went to pick movies to watch.
Kyoka was next on the list and picked a musical and was singing along with the others the music was catchy Eri was dancing a little along with her sister. She was cuddled up with Izuku as the movie played and hear him sing softly with the words. She smiled and discreetly directed one of her jacks to hear his singing voice.
Ochako picked Apollo 13 and was snuggled up with Izuku and her daughters as the movie got tense. Everyone cheered at the end of the movie. Izuku looked at the clock and decided that one more movie before Eri and Raphtalia had to go to bed. When the movie was over Izuku got up and led the girls to their bedroom with Setsuna and they read them a bedtime story before they both drifted off to sleep. Fire Heart took his usual spot near Eri.
Mei chose a mech movie and no one was surprised when she started working on blueprints as the movie played. She was leaning against Izuku’s chest. Eventually, Izuku took her pencil to make her watch the movie. Mei didn't argue and she was curled up with Izuku.
Pony picked one of her favorite Anime movies and took Mei's place and got comfortable and wrapped Izuku's arm around her waist. She smiled as she was comfortable and watching one of her favorite movies.
Izuku looked at the clock and noted that it was getting really late and decided that there was time for one more movie. He told Toru, Mina, and Setsuna to decide who got to pick the last movie of the night. After a quick rock-paper-scissors and Mina was the winner.
Mina picked Aliens and sat on Izuku's lap and nuzzled under his chin. She pulled a blanket over them as the movie started. Needless to say, the other girls jumped several times during the movie and felt a chill go down their spines at the sounds the creatures made. Mina was unsurprisingly unaffected by the movie.
After the movie was over Izuku was dragged to the middle of the nest as his girlfriends moved around him. “What’s all this?” He asked as they each started kissing him.
“We wanted to show you how much we appreciate you Zuzu. “Mei said giving him a big smile.
Kyoka took Mei's place and kissed him while wrapping her jacks lightly around his head. "What she said, Izzy.
Pony took her turn next and gave him a simple peck on the lips. “You took care of all of us and we want to return the favor.
Setsuna separated her head and kissed him tenderly. “You treat us so kindly Izu.”
Ochako wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. “You are very special to us Izuku.”
Mina snuck in just before Toru could and almost knocked him to the ground with a kiss. "I had a lot of fun and can't wait for our real date."
Toru pouted at Mina beating her to Izuku, but she took her turn wrapping her tail around his wrist. “Thank you for everything.”
Momo purposefully went last as she repeated her earlier kiss with him at the book store. She pulled back from the kiss and licked her lips. "Let us take care of you for a change darling." She said in a husky voice. She laid him down and cuddled into his side. Eventually, the other girls laid down with him and Momo and they were all comfortable.
“Girls, thank you for everything and know that you all mean the world to me," Izuku said as happy tears ran down his face. They were quick to comfort him with affection and words of kindness. He was exhausted from all the fun from one of the best days in his life and the emotional roller coaster from dealing with his ex. "I love you girls." He told them as he fell asleep in their arms.
The girls freeze in surprise at what he said. Ochako just smiled brighter as she placed a kiss on his forehead. After they broke out of their stupor, each girl followed Ochako's example and kissed his forehead before they held him closer.
Eventually, the girls all drifted off to sleep with a smile on their faces.
Inko walked into the restaurant was directed to a private room near the back. She could already hear the laughter coming from the room as she entered. She was smiling as she saw the other mothers already deep in discussion with various wedding books on the table. Mitsuki, Kaina, Nemuri, and her girlfriend Ryu were helping and pointing out different things to suggest for their planning.
Mitsuki looked up and waved at Inko. "Hey!" Mitsuki said gesturing to a chair between Kaina and herself. "Didn't think you were going to show." She said taking a drink of her margarita.
Inko laughed. "I had to help Yu get ready for a date." She told her old friend as she sat down. "I ran a little late, but it was worth it." She reached into her purse and handed Mitsuki a slip of paper. "Here is Toshinori's number."
"I owe you one Inko," Mitsuki said putting the number in her phone before she lost it.
Nemuri turned to face Inko with great interest? "Oh, Yu is on a date?" She pulled out her phone and sent a few messages and then looked back at her mom. "Ryuko and Rumi are on their way wanting the details."
Ryu nodded her head "I am curious about who asked her out myself." She said leaning her head against Nemuri's shoulder. “I wonder if it’s someone we know?”
Inko shook her head as she was lightly elbowed by Mitsuki. “Yes?” She asked her friend.
"When did shy little Izuku become such a lady's man?" Mitsuki asked pointing at the other mother.
Inko laughed. "It has been a recent change." She said smirking at Mitsuki. "I think it started when he met Mei back before his Entrance Exam.” She took out her phone and showed Izuku and the girls cuddling the night before. “He is such a caring boy.”
Mitsuki looked at the picture and whistled. “Wow, He knows how to pick’em.” She said giving Inko a wink. “Already have two granddaughters and in a few years, you may be drowning in grandbabies.”
"I think that is what Inko is looking forward to." Kaina teased before eating from a basket of chips on the table.
"No comment," Inko said as the waiter arrived to take her drink order. "How is Katsuki doing?" She may not like him. but Mitsuki was her friend and she wanted to at least ask.
"Same as always," Mitsuki said leaving out a sigh. "He screams and swears and stays in his room." She shrugged at Inko. "I don't know what to do."
“He could be dealing with some PTSD.” Nemuri chimed in. “He may need to talk with Hound Dog about it to help him move past it.” She was a teacher and that meant taking care of all students, even when she didn’t like them personally.
“I may have to do that.” Mitsuki agreed as she downed her drink and asked the waiter for another.
"Inko why don't you tell us what you like from what we have picked so far," Mika asked pointing to a few of the open books on the table.
"What she said," Sarah said holding a glass of wine in her hand. "You know what your son likes."
Mikoto down her mimosa with a loud sigh. “I think Mina will like what we picked. I can’t wait to see my beautiful girl dressed in white.”
Sarah groaned. “Easy there Mikoto. I do not want to carry you home tonight.”
Konoka was sitting next to Mona both sipping from their wine glasses. “I love the picture you sent last night. Thank you Inko.” Honoka said raising her glass to salute Inko.
Mona nodded her head. “Momo seems so happy. I am glad she met Izuku and the other girls.”
Ocha nodded as she sipped her drink. “I agree, Ochako has been so happy and I have your son to thank for it Inko." She winked at the group. "Now we have to make sure the wedding is one for the history books.
"Amen to that," Melina said looking around the table. "To our children.” She said holding her glass up for a toast.
“To our Children!” The other joined in clinking their glasses together.
As they looked at the various wedding books the made notes for each request Rumi and Ryuko arrived to join them. Rumi, Ryuko, and Nemuri were disappointed when Inko would not tell them who Yu was out on a date. Soon they were messaging Yu until Inko made them stop. They were having a good time ordering food and more drinks to keep the fun going. Ryu had been able to convince Shino to come out and join them.
By the end of the night, several of them were completed hammered. Rumi had gotten into a drinking contest with several of them. it resulted in Mikoto getting hammered. Rumi was carried out by Ryuko and Sara was mildly annoyed by having to carry her friend to the car. Mona and Honoka were slightly buzzed and were picked up by the Yaoyorozu driver. Mika barely drank and was sober enough to call a taxi to take her home safely. Ocha only had a few drinks and when it was time for her to head home, she was sober. Nemuri was able to walk her drunk girlfriend and teammate Shino out to her car and took them back to her apartment. Mitsuki decided to hit another bar before heading home and waved as she left. Melina waved as she headed off to get some rest as she drank water all night.
"Are you good to drive home Inko?" Kaina asked as she put on her jacket. She was not in any hurry to head back to her room at UA.
"Yes, I didn't drink much and I had plenty of food," Inko replied as she started walking to her car. “Do you need a ride back to your place?”
Kaina just shrugged. “I took a cab here and not really wanting to go back just yet.”
Inko gestured to her car. “Want to come back to the apartment and talk for a while?”
Kaina smiled at her. “Sounds good to me.”
Inko and Kaina slowly crept into the apartment and smiled at the sight of Izuku cuddling with his girlfriends. Kaina pointed to Inko’s bedroom and Inko nodded after she locked the apartment door and checked in on her granddaughters. They moved quietly and Inko closed the door behind them.
"Tonight, was a lot of fun." Inko said smiling at Kaina. "It's been a long time since I have had a night like this."
Kaina smiled as well. “Tell me about it.” She cocked her head to the side. “Defiantly what I needed after all those years in Tartarus.”
"You're free now Kaina," Inko told her as she placed a comforting hand on Kaina's shoulder. "You're young and have your whole life ahead of you."
Kaina looked at Inko. "You're my best friend Inko and I have one regret after all these years."
Inko looked at her confused. "What is it?"
Kaina placed a kiss on Inko's lips and wrapped her arms around Inko's waist.
"Kaina," Inko said after pulling back slightly. "This was your regret?"
"Yes," Kaina said staring deep into Inko's deep green eyes. "I watch you be so unhappy with your ex for all those years and I waited patiently hoping one day you would leave him. I lost my chance when I went to Tartarus, but I won't make the same mistake twice." Her voice was full of determination and affection.
Inko looked away as a light blush covered her face. "I'm too old," Inko murmured. She didn't think she was still attractive enough for anyone to have any feelings for her.
"I don't care," Kaina said gently cupping Inko's chin to look her in the eye. "I want to be with you and stand by your side for as long as you’ll have me."
Inko felt her heart skip a beat. "Are you sure?” She asked nervously. "I am sure there are better partners for you to choose from."
Kaina placed another passionate kiss on Inko's lips. "I'm sure. I love you Inko." She caressed Inko’s face gently. “I have been wanting to tell you that to you that for years.”
Inko was about to say something, but Kaina place a finger on her lips. "I can wait for you to say it back to me." Kain gave her a crooked smile. “I wanted this long to confess to you.”
Inko took a deep breath before placing a hand on each side of Kaina's face and returning her kiss. When she pulled back she looked at Kaina. "Will you stay with me for the night?" Inko let a small smile appear on her face. “I don’t want to sleep alone tonight.”
Kaina grinned at her. "The entire Japanese Army couldn’t drag me away tonight from you Inko."
Inko pulled Kaina to the bed. “We’ll have to tell Izuku about us in the morning.” She said laying down on the bed. “I want him to know about this.”
Kaina smiled as she let her dress fall to the floor. "I'm good with that." She said crawling into the bed to straddle Inko's lap. "I love him like a son anyway." Kaina licked her lips. "Your room is still soundproof right?"
"Y-Yes," Inko said feeling very thirst at the moment. "Are you sure you want this? It's been a while since I was well." She trailed off.
"Been a long time for me as too," Kaina said before she started placing kisses on the side of Inko's neck. "I'm sure it will be magical." She purred in Inko's ear. "You’re wearing too many clothes."
Before Kaina knew what happened She was flipped on her back as Inko reversed their positions. Her eyes had an almost feral look to them. "I'm on top tonight.” She let her dress fall off her shoulders pooling at her waist and then tossed her bra across the room. “Maybe we can switch later.”
"Sounds good to me," Kaina said as Inko dragged her nails slower over her body.
Inko smiled turned almost feral. She used her quirk to open the drawer on the nightstand and several toys landed on the bed beside them.
Kaina looked at the toys. "Oh god." She muttered looking at the size of a few of them."
“You’ll be saying that very soon dear," Inko said leaning down to kiss Kaina. "Quite frequently in fact."
Kaina smiled as she gave Inko a playful look. “Don’t threaten me with a good time.”
Neither of them slept for the next several hours.
Banshi Joo entered her office late in the night. She was tired of being around humans and the trip was a complete waste of her time. She was planning to seduce and take over the mind of David Shield to further her influence on I-Island, but after finding out his daughter was a Power Ranger she was forced to abandon that plan. She was forced to settle for brainwashing his assistant Samuel Abraham.
Banshi invested a large amount of money for a secret project to keep a connection open to I-Island. She leaned back in her chair frustrated. She had been trapped in a series of meat suits for nearly 40 years.
She was once a powerful demon known as Queen Bansheera before her defeat by those cursed Lightspeed Rangers. She was forced to use the last of her remaining power to open a small tear in reality to escape. When she arrived on this world weakened and near death, she was forced to possess a random human to survive. After working her way into different circles, she started to build a small empire. Soon she discovered that the body she was possessing was starting to fail after a few years due to her demonic powers. She was forced to change hosts and transfer the company over to her new host. Eventually, she got good at taking over humans and using them until they burned out.
As time passed her power was slowly returning allowing her to trade favors to give people a taste of real power. Soon she was known throughout Japan as the Queen with her hand her fingers in various criminal enterprises. She helped Kai Chisaki rise to the top of the Yakuza by giving his Quirk a large bump in power. He had recently reached out a while back demanding another meeting with her, but she was making him wait to make him desperate enough to make that deal with her without asking too many questions. She had plans for him and she needed him to restore her to full glory. She was about to look at a stack of paperwork when someone appeared in her office out of nowhere.
“Did you forget that you can just pick up a phone and call me?” Queen Bansheera mused as she looked up to greet her guest. “You were the one who helped me adjust to human life after all Scorpina.” Queen Bansheera smirked to see the fierce warrior giving her an annoyed look. “Take a joke for once.”
“How did your meeting go at I-Island?” Scorpina asked bluntly not wanting to deal with pointless pleasantries.
“Right I forgot you are straight to the point and no foreplay.” Queen Bansheera replied to Scorpina and smirked when she heard Scorpina start to growl. "You need to learn to enjoy things." She gave Scorpina a knowing look. “I heard a rumor about you recently.”
"I am short on time today. Bansheera." Scorpina said angrily. She had not heard anything from Chitose and it was starting to grate on her nerves. "I-Island? What happened?"
Queen Bansheera rolled her eyes as she leaned back in her chair. "I was unable to get David Shield but was able to ensnare another on the island to help with our cause. They will start feeding us information by the end of the week at the latest."
Scorpina nodded her head. "Good." She pulled a red vial from a pouch at her waist and placed it on the desk in front of Queen Bansheera. "This will help slow the rate of decay for your current body," Scorpina said crossing her arms. "It's not a cure, but it will give me more time in your host body until I can find a more permanent solution."
Queen Bansheera nodded her head and downed the contents of the vial. "You have my thanks." She reached into a desk drawer and pulled out a leather bag and tossed it on the desk. "Your payment. As usual"
Scorpina retrieved the bag and looked inside briefly before attaching it to her belt. "I will be back same time next week." With that, she vanished from the room.
Queen Bansheera just shook her head and went back to work. She sent Chisaki a message to see her tomorrow night for his meeting with her. She told him not to waste her time or be late.
She was unaware of a vague outline of someone silently exiting the room.
After the figure made it the roof undetected, they let their invisibility fade to reveal the Phantom Ranger. He tapped a button on his gauntlet and his ship de-cloaked and the cockpit opened up. He entered his spaceship and it cloaked again. He tapped a few buttons on the control panel and the ship took off into the night's sky. "This is not good." The Phantom Ranger said adjusting the ship's course. " I need to contact the others. This is getting out of hand." He sent out a message to his allies asking for a meeting ASAP. It had been a while since they had all talked, but things were starting to move quickly in the shadows and they needed to get ahead of this before it gets out of hand.

Chapter Text
Izuku awoke the next morning feeling comfortable as he felt something tickling his nose. He opened his eyes to find Mina curled up on his chest with her hair against his nose. He moved his head and remembered what he said to them before he fell asleep the night before. He was glad to see they were all cuddled up with him. He was looking around as best he could to see his girlfriend’s sleeping peacefully.
It took him a while to extricate himself from his girlfriends and moved to take a quick shower. After he changed and looked in on his daughters to see that they were still sleeping, he made his way to the kitchen. He was a bit surprised that his Mom was not awake yet, but he figured she had stayed out late to have a bit of fun with the other Moms. He opened the fridge to see what he had for ingredients to start making breakfast. As he was making a mental note of what he was going to make for breakfast, a pair of arms wrapped around his stomach and nuzzle against his back.
"Morning Izuku." Pony said feeling his stomach muscles through his shirt. "I wanted to come and help you make breakfast this morning."
Izuku turned around to face her. "Morning Pony." He placed a quick kiss on her lips. "I didn't wake you up did I?" He asked hoping to surprise everyone again with their favorite food.
"I've been up for a while and when I heard you moving around the kitchen I wanted to cook with you." Pony said looking up at him. "Are you ok with me helping you?"
Izuku nodded his head. "I would like that Pony." He started handing her ingredients to put on the counter. "Do you know how to cook?" He asked moving to the cabinet to start getting the pans he needed.
"Yep." Pony said setting everything on the counter and moving to put the pans on the stove. "I used to help my Mom make breakfast back home in Texas." She missed cooking with her mom as it was where they bond over their shared love of cooking. "Ready to start?"
Izuku smirked at her as he grabbed a few ingredients. “Yeah, let’s get started.” The duo went to work and soon the apartment was filled with the sound and smell of their cooking. As they were putting the final touches on breakfast, Pony went to wake up the other girls while Izuku started to set plates and utensils on the table.
“Zuzu!” Mei exclaimed pulling him into a hug. “You should have woken me up and I would have helped you.” She said planting a kiss on his cheek.
"I know Mei, I wanted to do this," Izuku said smiling ruffling Mei's hair.
"You did say you loved us last night, So I understand," Mei said grinning at him as she leaned into his hand.
Izuku got flustered as he looked at Mei as the other girls flanked her on each side. “It’s true. “I love you girls.” He looked to see each girl starting to smile at him. “I wanted to show you girl how much you all mean to me.”
The girls moved to surround him as they hugged him tightly. "We love you too Izuku." They said together.
They stayed like this until several stomachs started to growl. Izuku looked at them. "I need to wake up the girls and we can dig into our breakfast." He said separating from his girlfriends and moving towards his daughter's room.
“What about your Mom?” Ochako asked looking at the closed door down the hall. “Should we go wake her up?”
Izuku thought for a moment. "No, I think she got in late last night," Izuku said smiling at Ochako. "I will wake her up later and reheat some leftovers for her."
After leading his sleepy daughters into the dining room and got them seated at the table, he filled their plates up with food.
“Did Tsu say what time we need to meet them at the park today?” Izuku asked as he placed a cup of milk in front of Raphtalia and Eri.
"She said to meet them about noon and sent me the name of the park," Ochako said before taking a bite of her food. "Tsu said there is a playground nearby for them to play on." She was inhaling her breakfast and ignoring the teasing look from Setsuna.
"I'll let my dad know to bring my siblings there about that time," Mina said grabbing her phone and sending a quick message before devouring her breakfast and asking Izuku for seconds.
Eri looked over and tapped Momo on the arm. "Will they be nice?" She asked nervously about meeting new people. "I want them to like me."
"I am sure they will be nice honey," Momo said pulling the girl into a motherly hug. "Just be yourself and I am sure that they will like you."
"If they are mean to you then I'll just hit them," Raphtalia said shaking her fist in front of her. "I'll keep you safe Eri."
Setsuna ruffled the girl's hair. "How about we don't hit them, just come and get us please." She said remembering all the trouble she got into at Raphtalia's age for doing the same thing. She looked over to see Izuku giving her a wink.
"Ok, Mama Suna," Raphtalia said before focusing back on her breakfast.
As breakfast was just about over Izuku filled a large plate of food and covered it for his mom when she woke up. When he tried to get up and wash the dishes Ochako placed a hand on his shoulder and made him sit back down.
"Let us take care of the cleanup Izuku," Ochako said giving him a stern look. "You cooked for us two days in a row. The least we can do is clean up the dishes." She grabbed several of the dirty plates and carried them over to the sink. She was joined by Toru and Mei who helped her start washing the dishes. Izuku took the opportunity to get his daughters bathed and dress with help from Momo and Mina. Setsuna and Pony started to clean up their nest of pillows and blankets and helped clean up the living room.
Soon the dishes were done and the apartment was clean. The other girls took turns showering and getting dressed for the day. They made sure their bags were packed as they would be heading home later that day.
“How about we get everything ready for our picnic this afternoon?” Izuku asked as he grabbed two baskets and a cooler from the closet. “We can make sure we got everything we need for lunch.”
"That sounds like a plan darling," Momo said moving toward the kitchen. "I'd like to help with that."
"Me too," Toru said heading into the kitchen to help out.
Mina hopped towards the kitchen. "I can help too. I've helped my Mom do this for years."
After the food was prepared for their picnic and put in the fridge to keep it cold and everything was ready to go in the cooler. Izuku looked at the clock and was concerned since his Mom had never slept this late before. "I hope my Mom is alright," Izuku said concerned about her. "She's never slept this late before."
Mei was tinkering with a small gadget that had no risk of exploding while she was around her daughters. "Why don't you go check on her and see if everything is ok." She said zooming it to see why one of the gears kept sticking when it moved.
“I think I will.” Izuku agreed with Mei as he headed towards his Moms room. He knocked on the door a few times. “Mom? Are you ok?” When she didn’t respond, he tested the doorknob and found it was unlocked. He opened the door to her room and froze at the sight before him.
The room looked like a bomb went off inside it. Clothing was scattered across the room, several pictures on her dresser had been knocked over and the room had an odd smell to it. He looked at the bed to see his Mom entangled with another person in her bed. He recognized the other person in her bed immediately as Kaina be her purple-pink hair. She had her head nuzzled into his mother's neck. The blanket had shifted off their bodies just enough for Izuku to tell that they were both naked without him seeing everything.
Izuku.exe has suffered a Catastrophic Error. The system is attempting to reboot at this time. Please contact your Administrator to help the system recover.
Izuku's brain was not responding as he started mumbling nonsense as he tried to process what he was looking at.
"Izzy are you ok?" Kyoka called out as she came to check on him when she heard him muttering. "Is your mom- Oh god." She said turning away from the sight in front of her. "Wow, I wish I hadn't seen this."
“Is something wrong Kyoka? Is Inko alright?” Momo asked as she looked into the room and blushed a dark red as she covered her mouth with her hand. “Oh, my.”
Mina walked over to join them with Toru and looked around Izuku to find Inko in her bed. "Wow, I have to say your mom is pretty flexible for her age," Mina said impressed at the being able for her to bend like that.
"How is that even possible?" Toru asked as her skin turned a bright pink before forcing Izuku to look away from his Mom.
"Oh, that is called the Canadian corkscrew." Pony chimed in when she looked at Inko before turning to the others. "Mina is right she is very flexible for her to get into that position."
Mina blinked a few times before looking at Pony. “WE are going have a conversation later on how you know that.”
Setsuna's head floated in front of Pony. "It's always the quiet one." She stared at the horned girl before smiling. "I am with Mina we will talk about this later."
Ochako and Mei joined them a moment later but before they could say anything they all heard Raphtalia.
"Is Grandma ok?" Raphtalia asked heading towards them with Eri right behind her.
Ochako and Mei each moved to pick up the girls quickly taking them back to the living room. "Grandma is just very tired right now Sweetie," Ochako tells the young girl while blushing heavily.
"Mei nodded her head. "I am sure Grandma is just fine." She was trying to get that image out of her head.
Mina looked at Izuku. “Izuku are you ok?” She asked him gently shaking his shoulder. “Izuku? Say something please?”
Inko was groggy as she heard several people talking near her. She opened her eyes and after her eyes focused on her door she saw Izuku was there with several of his girlfriend’s standing in the doorway. "Oh, My God," Inko said quickly pulling the blanket to her chin. "M-Morning girls." She felt her face heat him with embarrassment.
Momo looked towards her and averted her eyes to the ceiling. "Izuku was concerned about you and came to check on you when he found you like-um like this." She finished unable to look at Inko.
“I-I see.” Inko stuttered out. “Can I meet you all wait in the kitchen please?” She asked wanting some time to compose herself before she faced her son. “I’ll be out shortly.”
Mina was trying to move Izuku slowly to the kitchen. “Come on Izuku let’s get you somewhere you can sit down before you collapse.” She started leading him away from the room very slowly. “Just like that, one foot in front of the other.”
Inko started to try and get herself untangled from Kaina when the other woman started to stir. “Let me sleep Inko. Please.” Kaina groaned. “I need some sleep after you did that thing with your tongue.” She moaned pulling the blanket over her head.
Thump
“Izuku!” Mina exclaimed as he fainted.
“Darling!” Momo said moving to help her pick Izuku up off the floor.
Inko closed her eyes letting her head hit the pillow as she heard the door shut. "Well, that was a complete disaster." She pinched the bridge of her nose and started to wake Kaina up so she could go talk with her son. She just hoped this hadn't scarred him for life.
"Come on Kaina wake up," Inko said pulling the blanket away from Kaina's face. "Please wake up."
Kaina groaned as she opened her eyes. "I am way too sore to go another round," Kaina grumbled as she started stretching to wake up.
"Izuku found us in bed together," Inko said.
Kaina froze mid-stretch. "Oh shit." She said looking at Inko. "I forgot to lock the door."
“WE forgot to lock the door." Inko corrected her. "Let's go shower and check on Izuku." She got out of bed hurrying to find her clothes.
"Agreed," Kaina said getting out of bed trying to find her clothes that were lost in the chaos of the room. It didn't stop her from stealing looks at Inko's body.
A little while later Izuku regained consciousness looking up into Mina's golden eyes.
"Izuku are you ok? speak to me!" Mina asked as she watched her boyfriend start to stir. “Izuku can you hear me?” She gently caressed his face with her hand.
"I just had a very weird dream...Mom and Kaina were in bed together and...." Izuku said as he noticed the uncomfortable look on Mina's face. "That wasn't a dream was it?" When Mina shook her head, Izuku groaned.
"It will be ok Izuku," Ochako said running a hand through Izuku's hair.
Kyoka was caressing his face with one of her jacks. “Maybe she makes your Mom happy.” She said giving him a supportive smile. “Let’s hear them out.”
Momo kissed the top of Izuku's head. "If she makes your Mom happy then you should support her."
“Alright.” Izuku agreed as sat up and moved to the kitchen table.
Inko and Kaina both showered and dressed quickly before they walked out into the kitchen together holding hands. They were both blushing as they noticed Izuku was watching them from the kitchen table. "Morning Izuku," Inko said gently sitting down in the chair.
Kaina gave him a slow wave. “Morning Bunny.” She said giving him a nervous smile.
"Mom, Kaina," Izuku replied nodding his head unable to look at either of them. "So, um." He started awkwardly. He was not quite sure how to approach this. "When did all this start?" He gestured to the two of them.
Inko cleared her throat. “It started last night after Girls night.” She told him trying to keep it simple to keep it from getting awkward again.
"I kind of asked your mom out," Kaina said trying to help Inko ease Izuku into the conversation. "We planned on talking to you about us this morning but we got distracted." Kain glance over to see Inko pinching the bridge of her nose. "It's the truth."
"That's one way of putting it," Mina said taking Izuku's hand in hers. She let out a grunt a moment later as Kyoka jabbed Mina's shoulder with one of her jacks.
“Not helping Mina.” Kyoka hissed.”
Izuku closed his eyes for a minute before opening them again. "Mom I am happy that you found someone and I hope this works out for you." He smiled at his mom. "Just please lock the door in the future." He put his hand on the table near his mom.
"Thank you Izuku," Inko said returning his smile and reaching across the table to hold his hand. "How about we start over with a clean slate?" Inko cleared her throat. "Izuku, Kaina, and I have decided to start dating and we would like your blessing."
Kaina nodded her head. “Izuku,” She said softly as she reached across the table and placed it atop of Inko and Izuku's. "I've had feelings for Inko since before you were born, but I didn't want to ruin things at the time." Kaina took a deep breath and sighed. "I lost years in Tartarus and I want to make up for lost time. I want to date your Mom. I love her."
Several of the girls started to coo at Kaina’s confession before being shushed by Mei. Izuku looked at both Kaina and his Mom before nodding his head. “Alright, but can you make me one promise Kai?” He asked using her nickname.
"Name it," Kaina replied quickly. She would do anything to prove to her Green Bunny that she cared for Inko.
Izuku looked at her with a serious look on his face. “Please don’t hurt her.”
"I would die before I hurt her Bunny," Kaina said bowing her head to the table. "You have my word as a Heroine." She said those words with conviction and sincerity.
“That is all I ask.” Izuku said smiling big at Kaina. He got up and quickly hugged Kaina and his mother. “I am happy for the two of you.” The room was filled with smiles as they watched the touching moment in front of them.
Inko ended the hug and gestured for the other girls to join them. “Now tell me about your day at the mall.” She said smiling at Izuku and his girlfriend’s sat around the table and her granddaughters rushed over to hug her.
After giving Inko and Kaina the short version of their day and after Izuku was able to calm them both down about him being accosted by his ex. They settled back down around the table and listened to each of the girls talk about their little dates with Izuku. Inko got up from the table and pulled her son into a powerful hug.
"I know I raised you right," Inko said proudly as she kissed the top of Izuku's head. He looked at the girls and smiled brightly. "Take care of him for me please?"
All the girls gave Inko a nod and thumbs up.
Kaina was smirking as Raphtalia sat on her lap. "I have to say, I'm impressed there, Casanova.” She teased as she listened to how their day had gone
"What do you have planned for the day?" Inko asked looking at the clock on the wall. "The girls have to head home before dinner." She looked around to see the apartment had been cleaned and their things had been packed up.
"Our classmate Tsu asked us to meet her at the park so Eri and Raphtalia could meet her younger siblings to make some friends and play," Ochako said grinning. "Another classmate Fumikage is bringing his siblings as well."
"My dad is bringing my siblings as well," Mina said giving Inko a peace sign. "That way they have a chance to meet these two cuties make more friends." She sent Eri a wink as the little unicorn was looking at her. "I'm sure you make at least one friend today."
Eri nodded her head before burying her head into Momo's shoulder.
Inko squealed and clapped her hands. "Please take as many pictures as possible." She asked looking at Izuku and his girlfriends.
Izuku chuckled as he nodded his head. “We will Mom.”
They talked about various topics until it was time for them to leave to meet their classmates at the park. Izuku and Pony loaded up the picnic basket and cooler while everyone said their goodbyes to Inko. After they left the apartment Inko let out a deep breath and relaxed her shoulders. "Now we can talk about us." She said leading Kaina over to the couch.
“Oh, what about?” Kaina asked as she sat next to Inko.
Inko pulled Kaina into a kiss. “This.” She said with a mischievous smirk on her face. “How long can you stay?”
I’m free until this evening.” Kaina said grinning at Inko as she ran her hand up Inko’s inner thigh. “I have to look at a few things before Monday morning.” Kaina watched as Inko shifted a bit closer.
Before they go any further, Inko’s phone started to ring. Inko let out and groaned as she grabbed her phone and answered it when she saw it was Mitsuki. “Hello.” She said keeping her voice friendly.
“Inko, I need to talk with someone and you were the first one I thought of.”
Inko suppressed a sigh. "What's up? Did you have fun after you left Girls Night?"
“Well, Kind of.”
Inko frowned at her friend. "What do you mean Kind of?" She asked concerned for something that happened after Mitsuki went off on her own.
“Well, the short version is that I went to another bar. Got really drunk and woke in a man's bed."
Inko blinked a few times before facepalming. "Mitsuki." She said trying not to snap at her friend. "I need a bit more information. Please?" She looked over to see a look of concern on Kaina's face. Inko tapped a button putting it on speakerphone.
“Ok, so it goes like this.”
Mitsuki regretted her decision to continue drinking last night after leaving Inko and the others. She felt like death warmed over. Her mouth was dry and her head was pounding. "Ugh." Mitsuki groaned pulling the soft blanket over her head. She was not ready to deal with the world just yet. She buried her head deeper into her pillow. Eventually, Mitsuki decided to get some water and some medicine to help get rid of her headache. Mitsuki slowly sat up in bed keeping her eyes tightly closed until the throbbing became bearable. She opened her eyes and was confused at first of her surroundings. "This isn't my bedroom." She muttered.
The room itself was roughly the size of her entire apartment. She was sitting on a king-size bed with dark blue sheets that felt like high-quality silk. She looked over towards a wall that was nothing but floor-to-ceiling windows. It had a gorgeous view of the city. "How did I get here?" Mitsuki asked looking around to room. She didn't see any pictures, but it seemed very masculine by the style and colors in the room. She looked at a nightstand to find a bottle of aspirin and a large glass of water sitting there. She looked down to see that she was still dressed from the night before minus her shoes. "Now I want to meet who brought me here." She said taking some aspirin and downing the entire glass of water. "Maybe they have some answers."
Mitsuki found a luxury bathroom attached to the bedroom easily. She washed her face and tried to clean herself up as best as she could. When she finally left the bedroom, she walked down a long hallway and could smell something cooking. She followed her nose to the kitchen and stared in awe at how gorgeous it was. It looked like something you would find in a professional restaurant. At the stove was a familiar blonde-haired man wearing a simple white shirt and blue jeans cooking at the stove. "Toshinori?" Mitsuki asked suddenly feeling her face burn with embarrassment.
Toshinori turned around to face her with a smile on his face. "Glad to see you're awake Mitsuki." He said giving her a little salute with his spatula. "Breakfast is just about ready. How are you feeling?"
"I-I'm doing as well as can be expected." She said slowly making her way into the kitchen. "I-uh appreciate the water and medicine on the nightstand." She was trying not to make a fool of herself in front of him.
"Glad to hear it," Toshinori said as he was placing food on a plate. "Have a seat. I hope you're ok with an American-style breakfast." He placed the food and a glass of water on the table before pulling the chair out for her. "Here."
Mitsuki just blinked at him a couple of times before making her way to the chair. "Thank you." She said sitting down as Toshinori gently pushed her chair on. "It's so rare to find a gentleman like you still around these days."
"I just had a good teacher," Toshinori replied still smiling as he sat down across from her. "Do you need anything else?" He asked. "I can make something else if you prefer. I spent several years in America and I brought that back with me when I returned to Japan."
"This is more than fine. It smells amazing." Mitsuki took a bite of her breakfast and her eyes lit up. "This is incredible." She said before taking another bite of her breakfast. "If I didn't already know you were a teacher, I would have said you were a professional chef."
Toshinori laughed out loud as he leaned back in his chair. “I picked a few things here and there over the years.” He said reaching for his coffee cup on the table. “I will admit I was a bit surprised to get a call from you last night.”
Mitsuki set her fork on her plate. “Oh god. I don’t remember calling you. I am afraid to ask what happened.” She said with a sigh. She remembered getting his number from Inko and heading off to a nearby bar for a few more drinks before calling it a night, but after that nothing until she woke up in Toshinori bed.
"Well, it started like this," Toshinori said leaning forward on the table.
Toshinori was exhausted as he got back to his apartment that night. After a long conversation with David about Melissa's dating situation, He decided to relax on the couch and find something to watch to relax for the night. He found an old western and got comfortable on the couch to watch it. It was reaching the climax of the movie when his phone started to ring. He was grateful it was not his work phone. He looked at the caller ID and didn't recognize the number, but since this number was added to the school registry, he answered it.
"Hello?" Toshinori asked.
“Heey Toshi! How are you this wonderful evening!” A female voice said.
Toshinori was confused for a moment, but he recognized the voice. “Mitsuki?” He remembered that she gave him her number the other day. He was planning to call her on Monday to take her up on the offer. “Are you alright?”
“I-I’m fine, I was out with Inko and some other friends for Girls night and I wasn’t ready to call it a night, so I went to another bar.” There was a pause on the line. “I am sorry to bother you, but I was incredibly drunk and I was wondering if I could bother you for a ride home.”
“Sure,” Toshinori said without hesitation. “Can you send me that address and I will be there shortly to pick you up.” He couldn’t in good conscious leave her alone and drunk in some bar. What kind of hero would he be if he did that?
“Yeah, on-one sec.” There was another long pause before he got a message on his phone. “Whoa, I’m gonna sit down. I am not feeling too good all of a sudden.”
This set off several red flags for Toshinori. “I’ll be right there.” He was already off the couch and was grabbing his wallet and truck keys. “Do me a favor and stay with the bartender until I get there.”
“Y-Yeah ok.”
Toshinori hurried out to his truck looking at the fastest way to get there.
When he arrived at the bar we parked his truck and walked inside to see Mitsuki leaning heavily on the bar and a guy trying to lead her away from the bar by her arm. He narrows his eyes as he took larges strides to get to Mitsuki.
“L-Let me go creep.” Mitsuki slurred as she had a decent grip on the bar. “My ride should be here shortly.” HE tried to break free of his grip, but she was too uncoordinated from the alcohol.
“I’ll give a babe like you a ride.” The man leer at her.
Toshinori walked up behind the shorter man and tapped him on the shoulder. "The Lady said let go," Toshinori said staring down at the short man.
“Why don’t you go fu-.” The man stopped when he turned around to start at the chest of a very tall and muscular man. “Who are you?”
Toshinori pointed at Mitsuki. “I’m her ride.” He said menacingly to the shorter man. “I suggest you let go of her wrist. Now.” He took a step forward to show the creep just how outclasses he was.
Before the guy could say anything Mitsuki sucker-punched the creep in the face sending him to the ground. She almost fell in the process, but Toshinori was quick enough to catch her before she touched the ground. "Nice right hook." He compliment her helping her back to her feet."
“Yeah, thanks-s.” She slurred a bit feeling unsteady. “Can you take me home please?” She asked feeling very dizzy.
"Yeah," Toshinori said supporting her and placing several bills on the bar. "For the lady's bill." The bartender gave him a thumbs-up as he walked Mitsuki out of the bar.
After getting Mitsuki inside his truck, he walked around to get in the driver's seat. He looked over to see that Mitsuki was sound asleep. He let out a sigh and started driving back to his apartment. After parking the truck, he carefully carried her to the elevator. When he entered his apartment, Toshinori removed Mitsuki's shoes and set them at the door. He took her to his bedroom and laid her on her side and put a few pillows behind her to keep her from rolling on her back in case she threw up. He went and got a glass of water and a bottle of aspirin to set on the nightstand before tucking her in for the night.
He grabbed a pillow and blanket from a closet and got comfortable on the couch. He set an alarm so he could check on her in the morning and make some breakfast.
Mitsuki grimaced slightly. "I am so sorry for bothering you and making you sleep on your own couch." She apologized bowing her head at Toshinori.
"I'd rather you call me than let something happen to you," Toshinori told her as he waved off her apology. "I have slept on it before, so it’s not that big of a deal to me.” He gave her a shrug.
"Will you let me buy you a cup of coffee as a way to thank you at least?" Mitsuki asked hoping that she had not ruined her chances with him.
Toshinori nodded his head. “I’d like that.” He said giving her a slight grin. “TO be honest I was going to call you on Monday to take you up on that offer for coffee.” He gave Mitsuki a wink. “I didn’t want to bother you since your son was injured at the USJ.”
“Would it be ok to meet you tomorrow morning?” Mitsuki asked blushing lightly as the fidgeted with her hair. “I have a photoshoot near UA with my boss.”
“Photoshoot?” Toshinori asked. He was not really surprised since Mitsuki was incredibly beautiful. ‘Down boy.’ He thought to himself.
Mitsuki gave him a smirk. "I work for Uwabami." She said taking her phone out of her purse and opening a picture. "I have been working for her since my son was little." She showed him a picture of her in a long sundress.
“What time do you want to meet?” Toshinori asked quickly when he realized he was staring intensely at her picture.
Mitsuki chuckled slightly. “Say 9 tomorrow morning?” She asked him putting her phone back in her purse. She knew that her phone was close to dead anyway.
"Sounds good to me," Toshinori replied picking up the dishes on the table. "Would you like a ride home?" He walked over to the sink and started washing the dishes.
Mitsuki sat in her chair watching the tall muscular man washing the dishes. She admired his backside with a smirk. 'That is Japan's ass right there.' She mused to herself. "That would be lovely thank you."
“And I called you as soon as I got home Inko.”
"I see," Inko said grinning. She was happy for her friend finally going out with someone who would take care of her and treated her like a lady. Inko curled up with Kaina as she let Mitsuki talk to her heart's content. She looked at her girlfriend and mouthed the words. ‘When she hangs up, I want another round.’
Kaina grinned before nodding her head anxiously waiting for the call to end.
The ride over to the park was a rather short one as the driver dropped them off near the entrance and informed Momo to call him when they were ready to be picked up. They made their way to the playground. They spotted several benches nearby and moved to claim them. As they were getting everything set up Izuku looked over to see Raphtalia getting excited about meeting their classmate's siblings, while Eri looked very nervous. He went over and knelt next to her. “Are you ok Eri?" He asked rubbing circles on her back.
"Just nervous Papa," Eri said feeling better at her papa was coming to check on her.
"I'm here for you Eri," Izuku said smiling at the young girl. "Your Mama's are here for you as well."
Eri hugged him. "Thanks, Papa." She rushed over to play with Raphtalia with a big smile on her face.
"You're an amazing Dad." Pony said coming over to stand next to Izuku as she watched their daughters playing a small game of tag. "You always make sure that they are happy."
Izuku wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. "Thanks, Pony." He placed a kiss on her temple. "I'm just trying to do what my Mom did for me when I was little." He watched his daughters for a bit longer before Ochako appeared beside him. "Tsu said they will be here in a few minutes and Mina got a call from her dad saying the same thing."
"Alright let's get stuff set up before they arrive," Izuku said before looking at Pony. "Do you mind watching the girls?"
Pony quirked an eyebrow at him before grinning at him. "I don't mind at all." She said kissing his cheek. "I'm gonna go play with my daughters." She started off toward Eri and Raphtalia. "If you'll excuse me." with that she hurried off to join their game of tag much to their delight.
Izuku linked arms with Ochako as he headed back to see if they needed help with anything. Mina smiled and started waving. "Dad! Over here!" She called out to him.
Izuku looked over to see a tall thin man with fair skin with black hair and a well-trimmed beard. two black horns were visible atop his head. Izuku watched them head towards them leading three children about Eri and Raphtalia's age towards them. Two of them looked like mini Mina's both had pink skin and hair. One had her hair in pigtails and the other in a ponytail. The boy looked like his Dad with dark hair cut short wearing a Green Ranger T-shirt.
"Mina!" the two girls shouted as they rushed to hug their sister tightly. "Mom said you were staying with your boyfriend all weekend. No fair!" The girl with the pigtails whined.
"Yeah!" The other girl said pouting.
"Sorry Mira," Mina said looking at the girl in pigtails. “Sorry, Meiko." She said to her other sister.
"You have to play with us to make up for it," Mira said crossing her arms.
Meiko nodded her head. "Yeah What she said."
Mina laughed as she ruffled her sister's hair. "What no hug for your sister Mako?” She asked her little brother. When her brother didn't answer she looked to see he was staring at Izuku. "Mako?"
"It's him!" Mako said in awe. "It's the Green Ranger!" He said excitedly reaching into his backpack and pulling out a notebook and pen before rushing to stand in front of Izuku. "Can I get your autograph please?" he asked excitedly eyes sparkling with excitement.
Izuku smiled and he got down on one knee. "Sure. Where do you want me to sign.”? Izuku waited for the boy to point and signed his name. "Want a picture as well?"
"Yes!" Mako exclaimed as he looked at the autograph. "THIS WILL BE A FAMILY HEIRLOOM! THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER! "
"Oh my God Mina." Kyoka said snickering "it's like a mini Izuku. A total fanboy."
Momo smiled at the sight. "It's adorable."
"Yeah, it's cute," Toru said smiling at Mako posed for a picture with Izuku holding his Morpher as his dad took the picture on his phone.
"I can't believe I get to meet you. A Real Power Ranger!" Mako said clutching his notebook tightly.
"Oi!" Mina said glaring at her little brother. "I'm a Ranger too ya know?" She showed him her Morpher to prove her point.
Mako rolled his eyes. "But he was the FIRST Ranger and his Green Ranger suit is awesome." He looked at Izuku. "I can't believe my sister is dating my hero."
By this point, Mom, Ochako, Toru, Kyoka, and Mei were laughing at the boy's antics as Mina was gritting her teeth in annoyance.
"Why you." Mina started when Toru put a hand on her shoulder.
Kyoka tilted her head slightly and one of her jacks moved to point in another direction. "Tsu and Fumi are here," Kyoka said pointing in her direction.
Izuku looked over to see Fumikage and two of his younger siblings. One was a boy that looked similar to Fumikage, but his feathers were red. The boy was walking with his arms folded behind his head grinning. The girl looked a bit younger and looked human compared to her siblings. She had dark hair in a long braid.
Tsu was holding the hand of her younger sister. Her sister seemed to share Tsu's frog-like traits and had hair in two loops. Tsu's brother looked older than the other kids by a few years and had a bored expression on his face as he walked beside his sister. he also shared Tsu's frog-like traits to a similar extent.
"Hey Tsu!" Ochako called out as she walked over to meet their classmate. "Hey, Fumikage."
"Hey Ochako," Tsu said waving with her free hand. "Thanks for coming. Kero." She looked over to see Pony playing with Raphtalia and Eri. "Satsuki, why don’t you go introduce yourself to them."
"Ok! wibbit," Satsuki said as she started to head that way.
Samidare followed Satsuki waving his hand. "I know Tsu. Keep an eye on her and the others." He said lazily.
Fumikage nodded his head. "Yahiko, Kaoru why don't you go over to join them as well."
Kaoru was practically vibrating with energy. "Yeah!" She exclaimed hurrying off in that direction.
Yahiko just shrugged his shoulder. "Yeah ok, whatever big brother."
Before Mina could say anything to her sisters, they were already heading that way. She looked over to see her brother was still asking Izuku various questions and her boyfriend was patiently answering them with a smile. "Oi, Fanboy later!" Mina teased her brother. "Go play with the other kid's Mako."
Mako flushed a bright red before putting his notebook back into his backpack before handing it to his dad to protect. "S-Shut it Mina!" he stuttered before heading to join the other kids.
Izuku turned to greet Mina's dad. "Hello, Nice to meet you, sir," Izuku said offering the man his hand.
"Call my Kenji." He said taking the boy's hand. "Nice to put a face to my daughter's boyfriend since my wife talked a lot about you."
'Dad." Mina groaned.
Kenji smirked. "I'd like to get to know you Izuku. Have a seat." HE waited for Izuku to sit across from him on the bench. "Maybe I can tell you some embarrassing stories about Mina if you want." He sent his daughter a teasing smile.
"Don't you dare," Mina said narrowing her eyes.
Kenji's smirk grew wider. "Think of this as punishment for hiding your Boyfriend from me." He said returning his attention to Izuku. "When Mina was 6-."
Eri and Raphtalia were being chased by Pony in their game of tag when Raphtalia hear something and turned to see a boy posing for a picture with her Papa.
"I think the other kids are here," Raphtalia said pointing to the small group coming towards them. She noticed that Eri hid behind her. "she gave her sister a smile. "I'll be right here Eri."
"Thanks, Raph," Eri said returning her sister's smile. She felt a little braver knowing that Raphtalia had her back. Eri looked over to see Mama Pony giving her a smile and thumbs up.
As the other children reached them the two pinks girls were waving excitedly. "Hi! I'm Meiko." The girl said bouncing from foot to foot. "This is my sister Mira and my brother Mako."
"Hiya," Mira said smiling brightly.
"Hi." Mako greeted with a casual wave.
"I'm Kaoru.' The girl said grinning ear to ear. "Nice to meet you. "She pointed with her thumb to the bot standing beside her. "This is my brother Yahiko."
"Sup," Yahiko said giving everyone a lazy salute.
"My name is Satsuki. wibbit." She said bowing her head.
The older boy let out a bored sigh. "I'm Samidare." He said with his hand in his pocket. "Yo."
"I'm Raphtalia. Nice to meet you all." She said with a big smile on her face. Raphtalia slowly guided Eri out from behind her. "This is my little sister Eri."
"Hi," Eri said softly as she waved her hand. "N-Nice to meet you."
Yahiko couldn't help but stare at the unicorn girl. He felt his face warm up and his feathers ruffle. 'Cute.' He thought.
Satsuki walked over smiling at Eri. "Can I hug you? Wibbit." She waited for Eri to nod her head, Satsuki hugged the white-haired girl. "Were friends now."
"Y-You want to be my friend?" Eri asked surprised by the frog girl.
Satsuki nodded her head. "Yep. I don't have any friends and I am claiming you as my friend now."
Eri felt happy tears run down her face. "I have a friend." She said trying to wipe her eyes with her shirt sleeve. "Thanks, Satsuki."
"Hey don't forget about us here," Mira said moving closer to Satsuki and Eri. "We want some new friends too." Meiko nodded her head excitedly.
Raphtalia grinned moving to stand to close the group of girls. "Sounds good to me. "She pointed at the playground. "How about we go play over there? It looks like fun."
"What are we waiting for?" Kaoru asked running towards the playground. "Last one there is a rotten egg!"
Raphtalia was smiling as she ran after the other girl. "You're on!"
"Don't forget about us' Meiko said running after them with Mir on her heels.
Mira scowled at the other girls. "No fair you had a head start!"
Satsuki looked at Eri. "Ready?" She asked holding out a hand.
Eri nodded quickly "yeah. let's go catch them. "She took Satsuki's hand and ran with her towards the playground.
"Girls," Mako said rolling his eyes. "We better go keep an eye on them huh Yahiko?" He asked and looked over to see the other boy still frozen in place. "Are you alright dude?" Mako tapped his shoulder. "Dude?"
Yahiko snapped out of it and looked at Mako. "What did you say?" He looked around to see all the girls had run off to the playground.
"Uh, well let’s go to the playground," Mako told him with a confused look on his face. "You coming?"
"Yeah, let's go," Yahiko said patting down his feather. He looked back toward his brother and swallowed when he saw Dark Shadow rubbing his hands together. He followed Mako towards the playground trying to ignore the pit forming in his stomach.
Samidare just let out a sigh and walked in that direction. knowing that he needed to keep an eye on his little sister.
Pony followed the group to keep an eye on them. She had gotten several adorable pictures and waved at Izuku and the others as she went to watch the chibi's.
They were playing tag and using the equipment to escape from each other. Eri was running up a set of stairs when she missed her step and almost fell when a pair of arms catch her. She looked up to see Yahiko had caught her. After he helped her stand up she smiled at him. "Thank you Yahiko," Eri said giving him a quick hug before running off. Satsuki smiles as she follows Eri
Yahiko was frozen again when his sister tagged him. "Your it Yahiko," Kaoru said making a break for it. "You better tag someone soon!" She looked back to see her brother was not moving. "Oh," Kaoru said She moved closer to her brother. "Yahiko has a crush~."
Yahiko snapped out of it and chased his sister. "S-Shut it Kaoru!" He snapped as his feather were ruffled. "Get Back Here!"
Mira and Meiko were running with Raphtalia as Yahiko jumped down to chase Kaoru.
"Run!' Kaoru yells. "Yahiko is it!" She dodged his attempts to catch her.
"Scatter!" Raphtalia calls out as she separates from her new friends and looked for a way up the equipment for safety.
Yahiko caught his sister and tagged her. "Now shut it." He told Kaoru as he ran off in the opposite direction.
"It looks like Yahiko has a bit of a crush on Eri." Dark Shadow said laughing as he watch Yahiko tense up at being hugged by said unicorn.
"It seems that way Dark Shadow." Fumikage agreed smirking at the perfect material to tease his brother with. “I may have to tell our mother."
Izuku was watching the girls play and his eye twitched when Eri hugged Yahiko. There was suddenly a deep desire to scare the boy away.
Kenji smirked. "Welcome to being a father of a pretty daughter." he teased patting Izuku on the shoulder. "Just wait until they get older."
Izuku groaned as Momo pulled him into a hug. "It's ok Darling." She said soothing her boyfriend. "They are just children."
Tsu blinked a few times. "I thought Izuku was dating Ochako?" She asked tilting her head slightly.
Izuku looked at his girlfriends and they all nodded their heads. "Well I trust you so here is the story." He said explaining everything to his friends.
As Izuku was explaining his girlfriends to Tsu and Fumikage, the kids were having a fun time playing tag. Soon Mira was it and Meiko tricked people into thinking that she was Mira by changing her hairstyle. Kaoru was able to disappear when she wanted to line a ninja. Yahiko was able to evade most attempts to tag him. Satsuki would stay near Eri unless she got tagged and would give Eri a chance to run.
They were all having fun until Raphtalia's stomach started to growl with hunger. "Anyone one else getting hungry?" She asked holding her stomach.
"I am," Eri said nodding her head.
Yahiko rubbed his stomach as well. "I'm starving."
Mako pointed toward the others. "How about we go get some lunch.
"Let's go then!" Mira said
Kyoko smiled as she kept one of her jacks aimed at the playground. She knew that Pony was keeping an eye on them, but nothing wrong with some extra help. "They're on their way back here and they are hungry," She said smiling.
"Guess we should start setting everything up then," Izuku said as he opened the picnic baskets. Soon everyone was pitching and the benches were set and ready for the ravenous horde.
Eri and Raphtalia made a straight shot towards Izuku both excited and bouncing around.
"I made a friend Papa," Eri said excitedly. "I made a friend!" She said hugging him tightly
"Me too Papa!" Raphtalia told him as her tail was whipping back and forth. "Mira and Meiko are a lot of fun to be around." She liked their sense of humor and their ideas of pranks.
"I'm happy for you both," Izuku said kissing both girls on their foreheads. "Are you ready to eat girls?"
"Yes!' They said together.
Izuku set them on the ground and watched as his daughters hurried over to get some food. He went over to Pony and pulled her into a hug. “Thank you for watching them." He gave her a quick kiss. "I really appreciate it."
Pony smiled at him. "My pleasure. She showed him the picture she took of them playing. "I have to say the girls look so happy."
"I'm Glad." He said leading her over to the food. "Let's get something to eat."
"I'm starving." Pony said wanting to dig into the amazing food on the table.
Yahiko was chowing down on some lunch when he noticed his brother Fumikage smirking at him. "What?" Yahiko asked. "Do I have something on my face?"
Fumikage leaned over to whisper in his brother's ear. "Dark Shadow noticed how you acted when getting hugged by Eri." he teased as Dark Shadow appeared over Fumikage's shoulder snickering. "I just might have to tell Mother."
"You wouldn't," Yahiko said quietly. He knew that it would be payback for when he sold out Fumikage spending time with Tsu.
"We'll see," Fumikage said before Tsu elbowed him. "I'll be nice."
"Good. Kero." Tsu said enjoying her lunch.
Yahiko sent an appreciative look at Tsu before relaxing as he finished his lunch.
Eri took an apple from the basket and walked over to Fumikage and tapped him on the arm.
“Yes, Eri?” Fumikage asked giving the small unicorn his full attention.
Eri held out the apple in front of her. “I-I wanted to thank you for being nice to me when we first met Uncle Fumi.” She said gesturing for him to take the apple. “This is for you.”
“Thank you Eri,” Fumikage replied smiling as he accepted his gift. “I appreciate the gift.”
Dark Shadow appeared and gave the small unicorn a hug. “That is very kind of you Eri.”
Eri beamed before running off back to the other kids.
Tsu leaned over a placed a kiss on her boyfriends cheek. “That was very sweet.” Tsu said smiling.
“It was nothing.” Fumikage said taking a bit of the apple.
Tsu shook her head. “Not to her it wasn’t”
Dark Shadow nodded his head. “That unicorn is under our protection.”
“On that we agree.” Fumikage said to his shadow.
After lunch was finished the kids wanted to go play again. This time they wanted Izuku and the others to join them. Soon it turned into one massive game of tag. Everyone was having a blast. before they knew their time in the park came to an end, everyone said their goodbyes, and Eri hugged Satsuki and the two girls started to giggle.
"Later Satsuki," Eri said hugging her friend.
Satsuki returned the hug. "Later Eri. Wibbit."
Eri went over and hugged Kaoru. "Hope we can hang out again soon."
Kaoru Smiled at Eri. "I'd like that." She said sending a mischievous smile to her brother Yahiko.
Raphtalia was doing the same with Meiko and Mira "We need to hang out again someday."
"Definitely," Mira said pulling Raphtalia a hug.
Meiko hugged Raphtalia as well. "Yeah, I can show you some of the plans I have planned for Mako."
"I heard that!" Mako shouted as he was asking Izuku a few more questions before he was led away by his father.
This got a giggle from the girls.
Eri then ran over to pull Yahiko into a hug causing the poor boy's feathers to ruffle by her actions. "Bye Yahiko. hope we can play again soon."
"Y-Yeah," Yahiko said clearing his throat. "See you around Eri."
Izuku felt his eye twitch before Mei and Pony patted him on the back.
"Breath Zuzu," Mei said trying not to smile.
Pony was having the same issue. "It's ok Izu."
After their ride arrived, they went back to Izuku's apartment and the girls were sad as they gather their things to head home. Inko offered to have them stay for dinner, but the girls politely declined stating they had to get back home before dinner. Izuku helped carry their bags out to the car and came back inside to give the girls a goodbye kiss.
After the girls left, Inko had Izuku and her granddaughters sit down for dinner and asked them about the park. After hearing both girls making friends Inko told them she would talk with the other parents about the possibility of a sleepover.
After dinner Izuku and Inko got both girls bathed and ready for bed. They begged to watch some TV on the couch and Izuku relented allowing them to start settling down. Izuku was cuddling with them on the couch. He watched them slowly drifting off to sleep against him. After getting them in their beds and tucked for the night, Izuku called it a night himself. As he drifted off to sleep, he smiled at the incredible weekend and couldn't wait to see what the week would bring him.
Bansheera looked at her watch and smiled as her latest appointment and about to arrive. She knew that Overhaul would be chomping at the bit to get her help with his little problem. She had reached out to a few of her contacts and heard that he had closed all of his operations after some kind of incident. She was not able to get any details since the case was sealed, but that didn't stop her from greasing a few palms at the HSPC to have them take a look at it during a 'random' audit. It was when she read about a young girl named Eri did she start putting the pieces together. This girl could be the answer to her problems if her quirk worked the way she thought it did. She could be back to full power and be finished with the humans of this planet for good.
Bansheera would have to move very cautiously. The girl was under the protection of the Power Rangers and she was not strong enough to defeat them in her current state. She had one thing that these short-lived mortals didn’t have. Patience.
Bansheera was brought out of her musing when someone knocked on the door of her office. She glanced at her watch and grinned. "Right on time." She mused before sitting taller in her chair. "Enter." She called out. Bansheera watched as Overhaul entered her office with two of his men. Knew both of them by reputation. One was Chronostasis and Kai Chisaki's, right-hand man. The other was one of his Eight Bullets, Kendo Rappa. Both men were powerful in their own rights. "Glad to see you can still follow my instructions."
"Hello, Queen." Overhaul said tensely as his eyes narrowed at her. "I requested a meeting with you 10 days ago." He did not care about her reputation or her quirk. He was not used to waiting when he asked for something.
Bansheera's eyes narrowed flashing to a malevolent yellow. "You forget who you're talking to child." Her tone was fringed and she watched as Overhauls men started to tense up preparing for trouble. "I have many things on my plate right now and you're your problems are not one of them." She slowly rose to her feet. The air in the office started to become heavy and uncomfortable for the three men.
Overhaul was gasping for air before falling to his knees. "M-My apologizes my Queen." He rasped. It felt like the air in the room was becoming heavier by the second. "F-F-Forgive me." He knew that she outclassed him in terms of power, but this was ridiculous.
Bansheera smirked as the other two men in the room fell to their knees as well. She kept the pressure up for a few seconds longer before letting her eyes shift back to a normal color. "Good boy," Bansheera said in a condensing tone. "Seems you can be taught manners." She sat back in her chair and waited for Overhaul to compose himself. "Get off my floor. I just had it cleaned." She grinned maliciously at the Yakuza leader struggling to his feet.
Overhaul managed to get back to his feet, still shaken from Queen’s display of power. He swallowed hard knowing that she could have ended all three of them without batting an eye. He looked over to see Rappa and Chronostasis getting back to their feet as well. He decided to keep quiet for the time being.
“Now,” Bansheera said gesturing to Overhaul. “What do you want to meet with me about.” She knew what he wanted, but she needed to play her hand carefully.
“I need your help in recovering something that was taken from me.” Overhaul said carefully trying to keep from telling her too much.
Bansheera quirked a manicured eyebrow at him. "I increased the power of your quirk on our first meeting, Kai." She said pointing a finger at him. "You remember what that cost you?" She watched Overhaul nod his head as Bansheera held out her palm in front of her. An ethereal figure appears in the palm of her hand. It looked like a perfect match to Overhaul. The tiny figure screamed as Bansheera closed her hand. "I already have your soul. What more do you have to offer?"
Overhaul stiffened as he remembered the pain of that day whenever he closed his eyes to sleep. The payoff was worth it in his opinion to cure the world and bring the yakuza back to if rightful place in the world. No Quirks, No Heroes. Back to the glory days of leading by intimidation. "I can offer you money or owe you a favor." He said knowing that the yakuza was barely hanging on as it was and soon they would be broke. "I need your help to get back what was taken and I can complete my research."
"Really? Money or a favor?" Bansheera said with a scoff. "I have all the money I need and I do not need to be in your debt." She started looking at her nail bored of the conversation. "I'm see nothing of value to make me want to help you." She looked back at Overhaul and had to suppress a smile as she watched him start to shake with rage. "If you have nothing left to off then leave. I have more important things to do."
Overhaul stood there shocked at being dismissed so easily. He turned back to look at his men. They just shrugged at him as they gestured to the door. He shook his head and closed his eyes. He needed Eri to complete his life's work and make sure to keep his promise to his men. "I'll trade anything for your help."
“Boss!” Chronostatsis said quickly but stopped when his boss shot him a look. He grits his teeth but remained silent.
“Oh,” Bansheera said grinning at Overhaul. “Are you sure?” She watched as her prey walked right into her web.
Overhaul nodded his head. “Yes, I am sure.” He would bring her dream to fruition or die trying. He looked at Queen waiting for her to answer. “Do we have a deal?”
Bansheera nodded her head. "We do." She snapped her fingers and chains shot off the ground and wrapped around the three men in the room forcing them to their knees.
“WHAT IS THIS!” Overhaul roared as he tried to destroy the chain, but was surprised when his quirk wasn’t working. “What? My quirks not working?”
"Mines not working either boss," Chronostatsis said trying to break his restraint but failed.
Rappa was still trying to break free when the chains pulled him to the floor. “Dammit!” He called out as he was pinned to the floor.
"I thought this was what you wanted Overhaul. No more Quirks." Bansheera said her eyes returning to their unnatural yellow as her skin became a ghostly white. She reached into her shirt and pulled out a key and retrieved a black box from her desk. “That is why you want little Eri right?” She said standing up from her chair.
Overhaul froze. “How do you know about Eri?” He snarled at the woman. “No one knows about her but my men.” He knew that none of them would betray him.
"I've known about her since the beginning of our little arrangement." Bansheera started laughing at Overhaul's surprised look on his face. "Never make a deal unless you know everything, so you hold all the cards." She was slowly making her way towards Overhaul reveling in the fear that was radiating off the man. She opened the box in her hand and an eerie red light started to fill the room. "I feel like this quote fits your situation perfectly child." She leaned down to stare into Overhaul's eyes. "Magic comes at a price dearie." She pulled out a red crystal in the shape of a five-pointed star. “You should be honored. My son once wielded the Star Power and was a fierce warrior." She ripped open Overhaul's shirt and pressed the crystal into his chest. "This is going to hurt."
Overhaul started screaming as the crystal started slowly merging with his skin. Lines of red energy went in every direction over his body changing the color of his skin is a goldish hue.
Bansheera looked over to see Rappa and Chronostatsis struggling against their chains to reach their boss. "Oh, I didn't forget about the two of you." She snapped her fingers and two demonic spirits appeared behind her. "I need new foot soldiers as well." With a wave of her hand, the spirits rushed towards the two men to possess them. Both men started screaming as well as their bodies were slowly encased in black stone.
Queen Bansheera laughed as their screams filled the office. She knew they could scream all they wanted, but no one would hear them outside her office and now she would wait for the time to strike. She would have Eri and be reborn in this world as its one true ruler. “What was the old mortal say? Ah yes, All Hail the Queen.” She said walking back to relax in her chair as watched the three suffer.
The Phantom Ranger brought his ship for a landing into a small clearing deep in the rainforest. He exited his cloaked ship and looked around before tapping a button to vanish from sight. He made his way down a narrow path towards a temple that no human had visited in hundreds of years.
There were 6 animal statues lining the path on each side. Frog, Crane, Wolf, Bear, Ape, Falcon. He could see that nature was slowly overtaking the statues with vines and moss. He walked up the steps to the entrance. He made his way to the back wall and scanned it for a minute before pushing on the image of a white owl. A hidden door opened to a secret staircase leading further inside the temple.
He reached the bottom of the stairs to find a well-furnished room that looked like organized chaos.
On one side of the room was a workbench filled with tools, parts to various Morphers, and blank power coins. Various scrolls were stacked almost to the ceiling. A small blue bottle and cork sat on the edge of the workbench.
The other side of the room was filled with books and various types of plants and carvings on the wall of the six animals statues. The small sleeping area was tidy and well-taken care of. The Phantom Ranger made his way to the small meeting room in the back. As he entered he heard the familiar sound of bickering. He looked to see two people arguing as they sat across the table from each other.
The first was a tall woman with long brown hair that was curled and wild with a dark-green band around her head. She wore a dark-green outfit that looked like a stylized bikini and knee-high boots. A massive wooden staff was in her hand as she sent a piercing look to the occupant of the chair across from her. The was Dulcea. The guardian of the Ninjetti stone on Phaedos for over 6000 years. Dulcea was once unable to leave the planed of Phaedos without dying. Before the planet fell in an invading army The Morphin Grid connected her life force to the Ninjetti Stone allowing her to flee.
The other person at that table was a man covered head to toe in blue armor and a ranger-eque helmet to cover his face. He had a large golden N on his chest and a katana on his back. This was Ninjor. He is a very mysterious figure that doesn't talk about his past or how he knows so much about the Morphing Grid. He was the first to create the Morphers and imbue the Power coins with power. He was a bit more eccentric than most, but he has been around for over 10,000 years.
“I have already apologized for the mishap with your plant.” Ninjor said crossing his arms and stomping his foot in a child-like manner.
Dulcea narrowed her eyes. “I told you to stop fooling around and yet you continued to practice with your sword near my plants.” She jabbed a finger in his direction. “I have lost track of how many of my plats you have either damaged or destroyed over the years.
"Hmm." Ninjor turned away slightly from the woman. "Why don't you turn into an owl and go fly somewhere."
"Don't push me," Dulcea warned tightening her grip on her staff.
The Phantom Ranger let out a sigh as he decloaked and entered the room. “Back to your corners please.” He walked over to sit in his chair. “I swear you two fight like an old married couple.” He leaned forward on an elbow.
“Take that back!” Ninjor and Dulcea shouted at the same time before shooting each other a dirty look.
The Phantom Ranger rested his helmeted head in his hand before looking at the empty seat with the symbol for King carved into the back. "Should we wait or?" He asked looking at the other two at the table.
“I apologize for my late arrival.” The Gold Zeo Ranger said walking into the room. “I was occupied and lost track of time.” They took their seat at the table.
“I’m happy you could join us," Dulcea said sincerely. "I wish you could come by and talk more often, but I know that you're very busy right now." She trailed off as she was not sure if her friend had recovered yet.
The Gold Zeo Ranger nodded their head. “I know. It’s been a while since I came by for a visit." He looked over at the Phantom Ranger. "You said we needed to talk and that it was urgent what's changed besides Scorpina making her appearance on national television?" They asked giving the Phantom Ranger their full attention.
The Phantom Ranger nodded his head and placed a small device on the table and played a video for them. “Scorpina is working with Queen Bansheera.” The Phantom Ranger said playing the device back into his belt pouch.
The other occupants at the table groaned at this development.
"Scorpina is up to something," Dulcea stated pinching the bridge of her nose. "She has her own agenda to help that demon."
Ninjor stroked the chin of his helmet. "That is true. She did interfere when we tried to banish Bansheera decades ago." They had tried to exorcise Bansheera, but when Scorpina interfered it allowed for Queen Bansheera to regain some of her former powers and threatened to kill millions of innocents if they tried again. Since that day they had been keeping an eye on her hoping to find a time to banish her without anyone interfering or allowing any innocents to come to harm.
“What do you suggest we do?” Dulcea asked the table. “WE need to do something. We have been hiding in the shadows for too long.”
“Agreed.” Ninjor said nodding his head. “I think it is time be made our presence known to the other Rangers.”
The Gold Zeo Ranger was quiet for a long moment. “I agree.” They said with their head bowed slightly. He looked up at the other members at the table. “I will reach out to UA and make it so we can approach the Principal to help the students.”
Dulcea reached across the table and laid her hand atop the Gold Zeo Ranger's hand. "You will have to reveal a lot of secrets when you do." Her voice was soft, almost motherly. "Are you ready for that?"
“The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. Or the one.” Gold Zeo Rangers replied looked at Dulcea. “This has been a long time coming and they need guidance.”
"Then it is settled." The Phantom Ranger looked at the occupants of the table. "We shall help guide these new Rangers and remove the like of Bansheera and Scorpina before they can lead this world to ruin."
As their meeting ended they all went their separate ways. Dulcea hugged the Gold Zeo Ranger. I am here if you need anything." She said stepping back to lean on her staff. "I shall await your summons."
“I don’t think it will be a long wait.” Gold Zeo Ranger said stepping back and teleporting away.
Dulcea was about to head back inside when she heard a loud crash follow by a loud. “Sorry!” She groaned and shifted into her owl form. Dulcea decided that she need to get some air before she killed Ninjor.
After returning to Pryamidas, the Gold Zeo Ranger started towards the elevator to ride it down several levels in Pryamidas. They listened to the sound of gears moving as the elevator descended. It had been a few weeks since they had been down to this level. When the elevator doors open they walked out and headed towards the door marked Medical. The door slid open revealing a fully stocked Medical office. all the beds and desks were empty. They walked to the back of the room to a door marked Cryogenics. After punching in the door code, it opened.
As the door slid open the automatic lightings clicked on illuminating the room. The room had a row of 5 cryogenic tubes. The Gold Ranger moved to the last tube in the row that was currently occupied. The tube was frosted over from the occupant being in Cryostasis for so long. They walked over and started brushing off the layer of frost before resting their hand at top of the tube.
"Hey, kid." The Gold Ranger said looking into the cryogenic tube. "I know it's been a while since I’ve had a chance to come and visit with you. Things are changing so quickly and I don’t know what to do." They started wiping off more of the frost from the tube. "It's been so hard knowing that I still haven't found a way to bring you back." The Gold Ranger brushed off the last of the frost with their gloved hand. "I've looked into multiple healing type Quirks and every current medical procedure I can find, but they all take too long to work and you would not survive the process." The Gold Zeo Ranger let out a deep sigh. “I can’t lose you.”
They knelt down and rested their helmet against the glass of the tube. "I should have been there when you fought him. I was so focused on battling Scorpina that I lost track of you and when I realized she was just the distraction, it was too late." They placed the palm of their hand against the tube. "I failed you. I hope you will forgive me one day." They stay like that for a long time. The only sound in the room was coming from the cryotube motors.
The Gold Ranger lifted their helmet off the cryotube to look at the occupant. Inside was a tall well-built woman in her mid-thirties with fair-colored skin and black spiky hair in a half-up, half-down bun. Her face was beautiful with a small mole under her bottom lip just off to the right. She wore a dark sleeveless bodysuit with a high collar and elbow-length gloves. A small cape was wrapped around her waist held in place with a gold buckle. A pair of calf-high boots and a matching white cape around her shoulders completed her outfit. The outfit was cut and torn in multiple places.
"You would be so proud of your old apprentice. He's done a lot of good in the world," The Gold Ranger said smiling under their helmet. "He lost his way for a bit, but we all lose the path without some guidance from time to time." The Gold Ranger stared at the tube for a long time before looking over at the clock on the wall. They stood up and looked at the tube one last time. "I'll come to visit you again soon Nana. That's a promise."

Chapter Text
It was very early Monday morning and the HPSC headquarters was humming with activity. Since the attack on the USJ and Nezu announcement for SPD the following day, The President of the HPSC was doing damage control. Their voice at UA had been removed when Chairman Monoma was arrested along with the rest of the board. His arrest caused a series of dominos that just seemed to keep falling. By Sunday at least 4 dozen high-profile individuals were arrested as well including the Principal of Ketsubutsu Academy High School and at least a half dozen HPSC division chiefs. The investigation was still underway and it seemed that more arrests were just on the horizon.
President Ahmya Tanaka called her staff in for a mandatory meeting and waited as the last few members arrived that last man to arrive was one of the old guards that she had not been able to get rid of. Fugaku Kaminari. He had been running the Internal Affairs division since her predecessor's first day in office.
Ahmya and Fugaku did not see eye to eye on anything. They fought constantly over every decision she made. She had heard rumors about his home life and several sealed reports that were 'misplaced' after they were filed. She had been keeping an eye out on any to take Fugaku down.
"How are the divisions handling the losses of their leadership?" President Tanaka asked looking over the massive stack of flies in front of her. She would have to find a way to spin it to lessen the eventual blow that was coming from the press. After the last few years of scandals and corruption cases, the public's opinion was rarely in favor of the HPSC 's actions these days.
"We have moved people around to fill in the openings at this time, but it will take some time to get them up to speed and get the division's various operations back on track Ma'am." Someone said quickly.
"Of course," President Tanaka said nodding her head. "Help them in any possible way and that should help us get back to normal operations quickly." She looked over to Director Kaminari. “How was Officer Monoma cleared so quickly of the allegations against him?”
"He passed all standards tests during the investigation," Fugaku said shortly. He crossed his arms. "I signed off on his paperwork myself for him to return to work."
"I find it hard to believe." President Tanaka said glaring at him. "I looked through that evidence myself and there are many inconsistencies for them to be ignored." It made no sense as to how Monoma is not rotting in a jail cell alongside his brother.
"I did my job." Fugaku shot back. "I followed our protocols exactly as they are written and he was returned to full duty cleared of all wrongdoings."
President Tanaka returned his glare. "I would like to see all those files on my desk by the end of business today." She told Fugaku leaving no room for debate by the tone in her voice.
"It will be done Ma'am," Fugaku growled out as he pulled his phone out of his pocket. He sent Nero a message giving him a heads up.
President Tanaka went over the rest of the reports and reached a stack of papers listed as complaints. "Who authorized Officer Monoma and several other Officers to harass UA students and their families?" She asked looking around the room. "I have almost a dozen complaints sitting on my desk."
"They were sent to retrieve their Morphers," Fugaku replied giving President Tanaka an incredulous look. "That technology should belong to the HPSC and I was the one to authorize that assignment."
"Jesus Christ." President Tanaka exclaimed. "You harassed students that were attacked by a group of villains on live television! The press will have a field day when it gets out." She handed a file to the person sitting next to her and gestured for them to pass it to Fugaku. "They are suing us for harassment and the firm is being paid for by the Yaoyorozu Family."
“What?” Fugaku he asked looking over the paperwork.
President Tanaka Shook her head. “They represent all of UA and SPD now.” She knew that this was going to be another headache to deal with.
“We have to strike at them now!” Fugaku snarled causing many in the room to wince. “We need to call the Pro Heroes that got Morphers and make them swear their allegiance to us or lose their license.”
"You mean like what Officer Monoma tried to do Miruko and Ryukyu yesterday?" President Tanaka retorted raising an eyebrow. "They have broken no Law or Regulations." She said pointing to the rules and policy binder sitting on the table. "If we start suspending them over this, I am certain that they will just join SPD's growing ranks." She gestured to a massive file. "That is the list of Officers, and other staff members that have resigned since Friday and are now working for SPD." She glared at Fugaku. "Not to mention the Press would crucify us for chasing away so many Heroes, especially from the top 10."
“Traitors.” Fugaku and a few other members spat out as they looked over the files.
President Tanaka ignored Fugaku's comment. "I want Officer Monoma in my office as soon as he arrives on the premises." She looked at Fugaku. "You all are dismissed." She waited until everyone had left the room and let out a tired sigh before pinching the bridge of her nose. So many dirty secrets and agendas. Every time she got rid of a corrupt officer, another would take their place. She had already survived a few coups attempts and at least 3 failed assassination attempts.
She returned to her office and started looking into the investigations she had started against Fugaku and Nero. They were both dirty but always seemed to have friends in high places to keep them from losing their jobs. She hated to admit it, but she was at war with her own organization. She led the honest officers and workers, while Fugaku and Nero were leading the opposing faction. President Tanaka needed to make progress in crippling the opposition. Nero was untouchable at the moment, but that meant she had to focus her effort on Fugaku. She would keep her ears to the ground and hope to find what she needed to take him down for good and then she would focus on removing Nero. She would cut the head off the snake and take back her organization.
She looked at the time and realized that Endeavor and Nighteye would arrive shortly. She needed them to help boost the HPSC in the public eye. She hated to use this tactic, but She could not afford to look weak. President Tanaka just hoped that once she had been able to get rid of the corruption, then she could help reform the Hero schools to bring the HPSC to a new golden age. She had a long way to go before she could achieve her goals. She planned to win against her foes and prove that she was destined to change all of Japan for the better. That would be the legacy she would leave behind.
Toshinori decided to head in early that morning to finish up a few things before he had to get meet with Mitsuki for their coffee date. He unlocked the door and froze as It was filled with various posters of Ooze Might. He dropped to his knees and cried out "NOOOOOOOOOOOO."
Shouta was around a nearby corner smiling as he went back to his room to get in a bit of sleep before school started. He would have to thank Emi for getting them for him. He figured a nice dinner would cover it. He was smiling as he curled up in his sleeping bag to get some sleep.
Reiko escorted her grandfather to the main entrance of the school. "Grandfather," She said turning to face him. "Are you sure I cannot escort you to the Principals office?" She was confused as to why he insisted on wearing a red velvet hooded robe. He had insisted to hide his face for the time being.
"I can find my way dear." Reiko's Grandfather said patting her shoulder. "Now off you go before you’re late for class."
Reiko bowed her head. "As you wish." She said before heading off to class giving her grandfather a ghost of a smile. She headed off to speak with Shoto before class started.
Kenta watched as his granddaughter headed off to class. He slowly made his way to meet with Principal Nezu. He had to admit the school was still a thing of beauty. Kenta approached the office and noticed a familiar face leaving the office. "Excuse me, young man." He called out. "Is the Principal available?"
“He will be in a few minutes. Izuku Midoriya.” He said offering his hand to the hooded man.
"Kenta Yanagi, a pleasure to meet you in person young man," Kenta said smiling under his hood. "I've seen you on the news a few times."
“Thank you, sir.” Izuku with a chuckle. “Any relation to my classmate Reiko?”
"She is my granddaughter," Kenta replied looking a bit closer at Izuku. Something seemed familiar about him, but he couldn't place what. "How is your family doing after that terrible USJ business?"
"My mother is doing fine, thank you," Izuku replied smiling. "She is just glad to see I was alright after it was all over."
"Who is your mother, if you don't mind me asking?" Kenta asked curious about the answer. He was hoping for a specific last name.
"Inko Midoriya, she is part of the nursing staff here on campus," Izuku replied looking at his phone. "If you'll excuse me, sir, I have to show a few new students to the Hero Course classroom." He bowed his head respectfully. "Have a good day Mr. Yanagi."
"You as well Mr. Midoriya," Kenta said waving as the boy left. He made a mental note to research the Midoriya family to see if his suspicions were right for a change.
Kenta waited patiently for a few minutes when he heard. "Please enter Mr. Yanagi." He moved inside the office as the door closed and locked behind him. Kenta was not bothered by it as he took a seat across from Nezu. "Thank you for agreeing to meet me in person. I know you are very busy right now." He kept his hood up as he spoke to the Principal.
"I'll admit I was going to decline your request when you told me that interesting code, my compatriot insisted that I have you come here in person," Nezu said taking a sip of his tea. "I wonder how you came across it."
"I would like to know that as well," DECA said as her Fox-body hopped onto the desk to stare at Kenta's hooded face. "That code was only known to a handful of people and I know that none of them are on this world."
Kenta started to laugh. "Well, I was expecting that reaction." He said his voice having a hint of sadness in it. "I'm glad to see that Zhane finally got that body of yours to work after all those years of him tinkering with it."
DECA fox head tilted sideways. "Wait, how did you know that he created this body?"
Kenta pulled back the hood to show his face to Nezu and DECA. "Because I was with him when started working on it." He remarked with a smile as DECA Fox-body went still. "How I have missed hearing your voice, my old friend."
"Andros!" DECA exclaimed as her scanners match him easily despite his age. "How is this possible?" She moved towards the edge of the desk. He was older and his hair was still long, now gray with a few blonde streaks and a neatly trimmed gray beard.
"Fascinating," Nezu said leaning forward and placing his cup on his desk. "I am sure there is a very interesting story behind you standing here in my office." He was growing more excited by the minute
"I am sure you did your due diligence and you did your research on me," Andros said looking at the principal with a slight smile. His wife had alerted him that someone set off the security alerts programmed when someone started digging into his past.
"Indeed, I have." Nezu tapped a few buttons on his desk turning the TV on and 'Kenta Yanagi's profile appeared on the screen. "I must admit you look good for a man your age." According to the profile on the screen showed his age at 80 years old.
Andros started laughing. "My granddaughter had the same reaction when I told her." He started to stroke his beard. "A good diet, exercise, and the perk of being from another planet. People from KO-35 can live about 120-130 years old before our bodies will give out of old age."
"Incredible," Nezu said excitedly. He was becoming very interested in learning from a real living breathing extraterrestrial. He had to steer his mind back to the topic at hand. "What brings you here if may ask Mr. Yanagi?"
Andros gave the principal his full attention. "I would like to help train your new Rangers." He showed them his damaged Morpher. "I also hoping that DECA can help me fix it and I will show them the ropes." He pulled a locket from his neck. "I hope in return to can help me with something. I don't want or need money."
"I will see what I can do," Nezu said looking closely as Andros opened the lock to show a picture of a woman and a young girl about 15 or 16 years old. The woman was a stranger to him, but the girl. He looked closer and she looked slightly familiar to him.
"When I came into this world, I was separated from my Niece," Andros said staring at the picture. "She is all I have left of my sister and I was hoping you could run my DNA discreetly to help me find her or any of her descendants."
Nezu nodded his head. "I can do that in exchange for your help as an instructor." He said smiling at the older alien. He took out his phone and made a quick call. "Nurse Midoriya. Can you bring supplies to my office for a DNA test, please? Thank you." He ended the call. "I have a nurse on her way up to take a DNA sample," Nezu said leaning back into his chair. "She will be here shortly."
Andros bowed his head in respect. “I appreciate your help.” He recognized the last name. “I met an Izuku Midoriya just outside your office. Any relation?”
"Yes, Nurse Midoriya is his mother and a valued member of my staff," Nezu said with pride. He had grown quite attached to the Midoriya's. He trust a few humans, but they were special to him. Eri and Raphtalia also had a special place in his heart for both them. He would protect them like they were his own. He would burn the world to the ground if someone harmed them.
"I look forward to meeting her," Andros said as turned to face his old friend. "I know you are not my DECA, but It is good to see you have some freedom from the ship." He reached over to pat the fox's robotic head.
"I feel the same Andros," DECA said with a chipper tone in her synthetic voice. "I took the liberty of scanning your Morpher and I believe that Mei should be able to fix it with the spare part available."
"I believe a spare is still available," Nezu added to the conversation.
Andros shook his head. "I would prefer to have this one repaired." He said running his fingers over his old Morpher. "I've had it a very long time and I am very sentimental about it."
"I understand completely." Nezu smiled smiling at the veteran Ranger. "While we wait for Nurse Midoriya, may I ask you a few questions about your home world?"
"I would be delighted," Andros replied getting comfortable in his chair. "My Home world is called KO-35."
They were lost in conversation about the history of KO-35 when there was a knock at the door. "Oh my, look at the time," Nezu said looking at the clock. "Seems I was so enraptured about your planet that I forgot about Nurse Midoriya.”
Andros nodded his head. "Well, it was nice to talk to other people about my planet and culture." He sat up a bit in his chair. "Shall I get the door for her?" He asked preparing to stand up.
"No, I've got it," Nezu replied tapping a button on his desk allowing the door to open automatically. "Hello Inko, thank you for coming."
"It's not a problem sir," Inko said walking in with a smile. "I was wanting to thank you for-," She stopped mid-sentence as she looked over at the man sitting across from the principal. Inko dropped the box she had in her hand as she went pale. "Uncle Andros?" She whispered as tears started to well in her eyes.
"Guess I don't need that test anymore," Andros said standing up. "I'm glad to see you alive and well Kinkoya, or do you prefer to go by Inko?" He asked grinning brightly at her. Inko rushed forward to hug him and almost tackled him to the ground. Andros was able to keep his balance thank to adjusting his stance just in time.
"Inko will do for now Uncle Andros. How long have you been here?" She said pulling the man into a hug. "I thought you didn't survive the journey here." Inko started to soft cry as she held her uncle tight.
"We have plenty of time to catch up later kiddo," Andros said rubbing circles on his niece's back. "I met your son on my way in here. He seems like a very nice young man."
"I am very blessed. He is such a good boy." Inko beamed with motherly pride. She turned to face Nezu and bow at the waist. "I owe you an explanation sir, after all, the kindness you have shown to my son and granddaughters."
"Please have a seat Inko and you can both start from the beginning," Nezu said interested to learn more about them. His mind was already working on connections to his viable theories.
Inko nodded her head. "I know I will have to tell Izuku and several others." She looked over at Nezu bowing her head. "I would like to ask a favor of you. If I give you a list, can you get the people here together at the end of the day to inform them of my past?” She was nervous about how they would react to her.
"I will see that it is done," Nezu said pouring himself another cup of tea. He waited patiently as Inko write down a list of names and offered it to Andros who made a call and wrote a name down. "Now let us begin."
Inko closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "Well, it will give me some practice for later." She said. "Let's get started."
UA was a buzz of activity as the students returned to campus after the attack. Security was on high alert and all students were scanned and searched before being allowed to enter. Izuku had a meeting with Nezu first thing in the morning.
When the students in Class 1-A and 1-B arrived at their classrooms, they found their classrooms had been moved. The sign led them to new a classroom where the sign read Class 1-AB. They entered the room to find that both Mr. Aizawa and Vlad King were standing at the front of the class waiting for the students to take their seats. Everyone was confused when a red-headed girl walked into the classroom alongside Mina and the other girls from 1-A.
“Miss, I believe you are in the wrong classroom,” Tenya said standing up quickly. “If you ask one of our teachers, we can make sure you find the proper classroom.” His arm movements are stiff and jerky.
Mina and the red-haired girl looked at each other before they started to laugh.
"Wow, Tenya," Mina said sending him a smirk. "I would have thought you would ask the girl her name before assuming she is not supposed to be here today."
"It's me, Toru!" She said excitedly. Toru's smile grew as people looks at her with confusion and awe. "Seems like when I got my Morpher it allowed me to control my Quirk." She did a little twirl to show off her tail. "How do I look?"
Tenya looked like a short-circuiting robot before he bowed his head. "I apologized for jumping to conclusions and being rude Toru!" He said quickly keeping his body bent at a 90-degree angle. "I shall endeavor to learn from this mistake."
Toru laughed as she waved it off. “Relax, I’ not offended. I know me being visible would be a surprise.” She told him she went to find a seat. Various students came over to talk to her briefly. Soon almost everyone was seated as the bell rang.
“Alright settle down. Mr. Aizawa called out to the classroom. He waited a moment for the class to go silent before clearing his throat. “As you all have noted we now have a new classroom and both classes are together now." He looked around to see student nodding their heads. "It was decided to remove any remaining rivalry between 1-A and 1-B that we shall train together and have homeroom together."
Vlad looked at all the students. “The schedules will remain the same and both classes will return to your original rooms for normal class subjects and return here for Heroics.” He beamed with pride at all of the students. “I am proud of how you all banded together to beat the villains. We want to keep that comradery going as the year continues.”
"Exactly." Mr. Aizawa said agreeing with his fellow teacher. "We also have several important announcements so listen up." He looked around to make sure he had everyone's attention. "First off, your parents will be receiving a call from the school about new Dorms being built on campus to ensure our student's safety. Normally this would be offered to the 2nd and 3rd years students, but Principal Nezu has decided that 1st years would be added to this as well. Both classes will share one dorm building and that will be managed by a Dorm Manager."
The students started to talk amongst themselves about the possibility of living on UA campus. Mina leaned over to the other girls and whispered. "Slumber Party and Girls nights!"
“Movie night.” Pony said excitedly.
“All good options." Setsuna chimed in with a whisper.
“Kyoka started twirling one of her jacks. “And Izzy.” She added.
Mina shot her a look that said ‘duh.’
Momo shushed them and let her thoughts drift to cuddling with Izuku on lonely nights.
"The dorms are not mandatory and you would be asked to move into the dorms in about two weeks." Vlad King added. "Now the second part of this will make a few of you angry, but here it goes." He made sure he had everyone's attention. "In a months' time, UA will be holding the Annual Sports Festival."
"What!" Tetsutetsu shouted. "We were just attacked by Villains and a bunch of monsters! They can't be serious."
"That's ridiculous!"
“How can they do this?”
Mr. Aizawa used his quirk and the class went silent. “Enough. This is out of our hands.” He informed the students. “The former Chairman signed a contract that would cost the school an obscene amount of money if we try to change or cancel the Sports Festival.” He could see that the students were not happy about it. "The principal is calling in multiple favors to make the Sports Festival the safest place in Japan while it is going on. SPD will also be there to provide Security and Respond to any threats or disturbances."
Vlad Kind nodded along. "You have 3 years to show what you can do and I would suggest that you put everything you have into making a splash at UA to get an internship and possible job with that agency after graduation."
"We will also be increasing your physical training along with Quirk training for the rest of the month." Mr. Aizawa said with a smirk. "Welcome to Hell month." He looked at his phone as a knock came on the door. "Right on time. Enter." He called out.
“Mr. Aizawa,” Izuku said entering the room. “I have the new students ready to be introduced.” He waved at his fellow classmates.
“Bring them in please.” Mr. Aizawa said looking back to the class. “We have 4 students that will be joining us for the semester.”
"WHAT!" Bakugo called out. "Why are you adding more extra! The semester has already started!" He had been excited about the Sports Festival and show the world that he would be the next legend to come out of UA. He would win and with his new Master, he would show them all.
“Silence.” Mr. Aizawa said silencing the boy. “Just meet your new classmates.”
Izuku gestured for the students to enter the room. 4 humanoid turtles wearing different color bandanas entered the room. They were wearing UA uniforms that covered their shells.
"I am Mr. Aizawa and the is Vlad King. We will be your teachers." He greeted the new students. "Please introduce yourself to your new classmates.
“I am Leonardo Yoshi.” The turtle with the blue bandana said bowing his head in respect.
“Yo, I’m Raphael Yoshi. The turtle with the red bandana told them with a lazy salute.
“I’m like Michelangelo Yoshi. Like totally rad to meet you.” The turtle with the orange bandana greeted his new classmates.
“I am Jennika Jones.” The turtle with the yellow bandana said with a respectful bow. “Pleasure to meet you all.”
“Nice to meet you all. Find an open desk and I will give the 4 of you your class schedules.” Mr. Aizawa said with a nod of his head.
"Tsk. They're letting in giant turtles at UA now?" Bakugo said snidely. "When did this place become a petting zoo." He ignored the disappointed looks aimed at him by Vlad King and Mr. Aizawa.
Raphael looked at the blonde boy and shrugged. "About the same time, they let some yappy blonde Pomeranian into the school."
Leonardo let out a sigh and facepalmed at his brother's comment.
"Say that to my face you green asshole," Bakugo said getting to his feet.
Raphael smirked. “I hear ya barking little doggie, but you got any bite?” He shot back cracking his knuckles.
“You’re Dead.” Bakugo seethed.
The whole class was watching to see who threw the first punch and all of them were hoping to see the new guy put Bakugo in his place.
"ENOUGH!" MR. Aizawa said activating his quirk again. "Take your seats. Now." He watched the two hot-headed students glare at each other before going their separate ways. After everyone was seated He relaxed. "Now before I dismiss you all to get the day started, I want to say that I am very proud of all of you." He watched his students looking surprised by his statement. "You all did well at the USJ."
Vlad smirked. “I agree. That just means we have to train you harder.” He laughed as the students started to groan.
"Now get ready for your first class and I will see you all this afternoon for Heroics Class." Mr. Aizawa said before leaving the room with Vlad King.
Bakugo got up and left to get seated before the next class. He was ready to show them what true power was. He entered the classroom when he felt his Master's presence in his mind. ‘Be Calm my Night wolf. You shall show them your true strength in due time. You must keep calm and hidden.’ Bakugo felt his body relax as he took his seat. He nodded his head as he took out his books for the next class. He could not wait for more training and his next lesson in magic. He would show them all and his Master was the ticket to being the best. He felt something in the back of his mind but he ignored it focusing on his thoughts of fulfilling a promise from his childhood. "I will be the best," Bakugo said quietly as he looked over his assignment for class.
Monoma felt odd as he left the classroom. He had been confused since he woke up after his surgery. He kept getting things jumbled up in his head like he was remembering the same event in two different ways. His Doctor allowed him to return to school after his surgery, but nothing physical such as training until later in the week. He had brushed it off as a side effect from the emergency surgery. He shook his head as he sat down and tried to ignore this feeling. Monoma knew that his father loved him and he wouldn't like to him about anything. It had been just the two of them since his mother abandoned them all those years ago. He grimaced as his headache grew worse. He took his medicine and did his best to ignore it for now. His father loved him and would always look out for him. He was heir to the Monoma family. His father would always look after his best interests.
Izuku walked up to Leonardo. “Welcome to our class. Ignore Bakugo. He's always like that.” He looked at the other turtles. "We have a few minutes before class starts if you talk to your classmates."
"Thank you for being our guide," Leonard replied with a slight bow. "I'd like to find some time to learn more about the school if that is alright with you."
“I will see what I can do for you.” Izuku replied pointing towards Momo and Ochako. “If you have any problem please talk with Class President Momo or Vice President Ochako if you have any problem with Class 1-A" He pointed to a different pair of students in the room. "President Itsuka and Vice President Setsuna can help you with any issues with Class 1-B."
“Thank you,” Leonardo replied as the other turtles started to move around the class.
Izuku notes that Raphael was talking with Kirishima and Melissa. Michelangelo was hanging out and chatting with Denki and Ibara, who both seemed pretty relaxed. Jennika seemed to be having a friendly discussion with Tsu, Fumikage, and Kinoko. He was glad to see the class was talking amongst themselves being friendly and chatting. He glanced over to see his girlfriend’s discreetly waving him over. He smiled as he went over to talk with them.
He was almost to his girlfriend’s when someone tapped his shoulder. He turned around to see Yui and Itsuka standing behind him. “Oh, hello what can I do for the two of you?” He asked as Yui was just staring at him.
"Yui wanted to come and talk to you. Yui has something she wants to say," Itsuka said with a knowing smile at her best friend's antics. "Go ahead Yui. Just like we talked about."
Yui pointed at him. “You helped me live out a dream with my Ranger powers.” She said giving him an almost imperceptible smile. “We’re best friends now.” She rushed forward to pull him into a hug.
Izuku was confused as he patted the shorter girl on the back. "I-uh Thank you, Yui." He said looking for answers from Itsuka. He glanced back to see the angry looks coming from his girlfriends aimed directly at Yui.
“She is a big nerd of Tokusatsu.” Itsuka teased as Yui hid her face in her hug with Izuku. “She has been talking non-stop about wanting to be your friend since USJ." Itsuka was proud of her friend for working so hard to make a friend. She was normally very shy and just hung out in the back of the group
"Itsuka." Yui's whine was muffled. She stepped back with a hint of pink on her cheeks. "I don't have any friends besides Itsuka.” Yui tilted her head. “Just so you know. I just want to be your best friend. I have no romantic interest in boys.” She was oblivious to the fact of 7 angry looks from her female classmates vanished in an instant.
Itsuka snickered slightly. “Yui, you don’t have to tell people that.” She walked over to pat her friend on the head. “She is not used to talking to people and boys always come up to ask her out all the time and that is her default comment.”
"I would be honored to be your best friend Yui," Izuku said with a smile.
Yui nodded with her little smile still on her face. "Good." She said hurrying back to Itsuka's side to hide. She waved at him before she whispered something into Itsuka's ear.
Izuku made it over to his girlfriends. "How are you all doing this morning?" He asked giving them a bright smile.
"Morning Izuku," Ochako replied with a smile. "It's going alright so far. How did your meeting go this morning?" Izuku had told them before school stating he had a meeting with Nezu first thing.
"Yeah," Mina chimed in. "Do you have any good tea to share?" She asked was a teasing smile.
"I'm with Mina. Tea please." Toru said giving Mina a high-five.
Pony nodded her head. "Yeah, can you tell us what it was about right?" She gave him a slight pout.
"I can't," Izuku said looking at his girls. "Nezu said I have to keep it a secret until after lunch." He hated not being able to tell them everything.
"Makes sense," Kyoka said with a shrug. "I am sure you will tell us when you can like you normally do." She knew that he would tell them about it when he could.
"Thanks, Kyoka." Izuku gave her a wink. He smiled brighter as he spotted a lit dusting on her cheeks.
Momo and Setsuna share a look before they move to stand next to him.
"Are you sure Izu~?" Setsuna purred in his right ear. She rested her head on his shoulder.
Momo mirrored her action. "Yes, Dar-Izuku," She corrected herself while in the classroom. "Are you sure we can't convince you?"
Izuku swallowed hard at their flirting. He shook his head. "N-No," He said trying to keep his resolve. "You will see after lunch." He knew that this would only get harder to resist. 'stupid hormones.' he grumbled to himself.
Pony took out her phone before pointing at the screen. "It's almost time for class." She said grabbing Izuku's hand. "You’re with 1-B, today right?"
"Yeah, I'm with you and Setsuna today," Izuku replied seeing the sad faces of Momo, Ochako, Mina, Kyoka, and Toru. "Hey, I will see you all at lunch ok?"
"We'll hold you to it, Izzy," Kyoka tells him as she grabbed her things.
After making sure that they were alone in the room, they got their kisses before heading off to class before the bell.
Izuku was smiling as he was heading to class with Setsuna and Pony. He was hoping that the afternoon went smoothly and that he would have a day without any life-changing surprises.
Inko sneezed in the middle of her story. After taking a Kleenex from Nezu she returned to tell her story.
Mei was tinkering at her workstation when she heard Power Loader calling her name. "Yes?" She asked sitting down her tools and heading towards her teacher. She spotted a new student standing near his desk. They were wearing a UA uniform with a Purple Bandana around his eyes. "Oh, your new." She extended a hand towards them. "Mei Hatsume, Future CEO of Hatsume Industries. Nice to meet ya."
“Donatello Yoshi.” He replied taking her hand. “It’s my first day.” He looked around with a big smile on his face. “I feel like I am dreaming.”
Mei chuckled slightly. “I know that feeling all too well.” She said looking over at Power Loader. “Did you need something Teach?”
Power Loader nodded his head. "Can you show him to the open workstation next to yours and show him the ropes until he gets settled in?" He knew that Mei was his best student and he hoped that they could become friends. He knew Mei was bright and talented, but her classmates were jealous of her and they shunned her. He tried to stop it, but he couldn't force them to work with her without disastrous results.
"I'd love to," Mei said smiling. "Come on Don. Follow me." She turned to head back to her workbench gesturing for him to follow her.
"Call me Donnie." He said falling in step behind Mei. "That's what my brothers call me anyway."
"Donnie it is then," Mei said leading him to the workbench. "Here is our bench and locker. Set the code and swipe your student ID card to register it." She waited as Donnie followed her instruction and set his back inside the locker. "Now, you can hang out with me to see what I am working on or you can start on a project you had in mind."
Donne stroked his chin while he thought about it. "I have been trying to upgrade my shell phone for a while, but I never seemed to have the parts." He pulled out the phone he had made for his family. He had tinkered with it over the years. He had been able to modify it to work when they arrived, but upgrades had been put on hold due to a lack of decent salvage.
"May I?" Mei asked interested in the device he was holding. After Donnie hands it to she checks it out and hums with approval. She zooms in on a few points to look at the circuitry work. "Impressive. It looks like it was made from scratch. I don't see anything besides a few part numbers.
"I did make it from scratch," Donnie said with a proud smile. "I made it from spare parts and made what I couldn't scrounge together for the prototype." He pointed to a few parts on the side. "I had to make a small forge to melt and shape some of the parts."
Mei nodded along as he went further into detail about it. “This is pretty nifty.” She handed the shell phone back to Donnie. “Would you mind if I assist you in upgrading it?”
"That works for me," Donnie said gesturing to the workstation. "Let's get started." Soon they had it taken apart and Mei had gone to fetch a few parts to see if they would work with his device. They offered advice to each other and were able to work seamlessly as Mei was able to zoom in to complete the detail work for the circuits.
Power Loader was smiling at the two of them working together so seamlessly. They were both very intelligent according to the tests they had taken and they seemed to be kindred spirits in a way. He was glad to see that she was working with someone so well. Maybe he would keep her grounded and let him drink less from dealing with explosions. He went back to grading papers as he listened to Mei and Donatello working together.
"Try it now," Mei said wiping her hands with a rag. "I think we figured out where the short was coming from.” They had been chasing a short somewhere for the last half hour.
"On it Mei," Donnie said turning on the upgraded shell phone. He smiled as it booted up faster and was online in under 10 seconds. "Wow, this is incredible. It's a brand-new Phone." He looked it over and gave his new friends a thumbs up.
"We pretty much updated everything but the OS on it," Mei said giving Donnie a thumbs up. "Next you can get the others upgraded too and I'll help you" She got a few new ideas on what to do with some Ranger projects on the back burner. "I have some hover boots I need to work on if you want to help me."
Donnie nodded his head excitedly. "Seriously, how did you figure out the thrust vectors?" he asked as Mei went and grabbed said boots from the locker. "I'll follow your lead, Mei."
"Thank you, Donnie," Mei said showing off the boots and starting to go over the finer details. They started working on different boots tweaking things as they discussed what they wanted to change.
Power Loader was relaxed as Mei had not blown anything up so far. She had gotten better and they were few and far between incidents, but still. He was listening in on them just to make sure.
“Oh, why didn’t I catch that earlier.” Mei groaned followed by the sounds of something being adjusted with a tool.
“It happens. Here one last tweak should do it.” Donnie added as she made the said adjustment before letting out a sigh. “That should do it.”
"Now to test them, oops," Mei said as she hit the wrong button and the boots laugh towards Power Loader. "DUCK!"
Power Loader dropped to the floor as a pair of boots shot past where he had just been sitting and slammed into the wall embedding both boots deep into the wall.
“SORRY! /Sorry Sir!” Mei and Donnie called out rushing to get the boots out of the wall.
Power Loader groaned getting back into his seat. “Great, now there are two of them." He moaned opening his desk to see the note from before and closing the drawer. He called Cementoss to come and fix the wall. Again. "I need a pay raise."
The rest of the morning goes quickly as they head to the cafeteria for lunch. Izuku and her group of friends take their normal table with a few new people. The Turtles joined them and start asking them questions about the school and start hitting it off with their new classmates. Izuku noticed the volume in the cafeteria increase as three students walked inside.
Izuku recognized one of them immediately as Nejire Hado of the Big 3 and Ryukyu's intern. He had seen pictures of her at his sister's office but had not met her in person. He noticed that Nejire was looking around the cafeteria for someone and Izuku was about to go back to his lunch when she pointed at him. "There he is!" Nejire shouted before running over to him. Izuku recognized the other two members of the Big 3 Mirio Togata and Tamaki Amajiki. He also knew they were Ninja Storm Rangers.
"You have got to be kidding me," Kyoka grumbled as she watched the girl with blue hair point at Izuku. She could help but focus on the girl's massive breasts. "Some girls get all the luck." She grumbled looking down at her own chest.
"Holy shit! She is stacked." Mina said unable to look away from the girl running towards her boyfriend.
"Lucky." Pony grumbled. She was jealous of being that tall and beautiful. She placed a hand on Ochako's shoulder to keep her from standing up. "Let's see what happens first before we overreact."
"Fine," Ochako said gritting her teeth. "She better not try anything." She was trying to control herself.
"Maybe she just wants to ask him a question." Toru offered. She knew that Izuku wasn't the type to leave them for some random girl.
"She has a point," Setsuna said added as the girl got closer. "I have to agree with Mina though, that chick is super stacked.
Melissa glanced over at Kirishima. "Do you want to add your opinion about that girl?" She asked with a sickly-sweet smile. She was grateful that he was not staring like most of the cafeteria.
"Nope," Kirishima said quickly. "I only have eyes for you."
"Good boy," Melissa replied placing a kiss on his cheek.
Tsu followed suit and look at Fumikage. "How about you Fumi? Kero."
"I prefer to only stare at you Tsu," Fumikage said with his eyes close and eating his lunch. Dark Shadow nodded his head as well before disappearing.
Tsu made happy ribbits as she leaned against her boyfriend.
Momo kept quiet as she watched the older girl come closer to her Izuku. She was waiting to see if she needed to protect him. She had several items ready to be created at a moment's notice.
Nejire arrived in front of Izuku with a big smile on her face. "Hi, Izuku!" She said leaning over to stare him in the eyes their noses were almost touching. She was oblivious to the fact that her boobs were pressed against his chest. "Ryukyu talks about you all the time! Miruko is so cool to work with and I'm learning a lot from her and it is so much fun to spar with her! It was so cool to get a Morpher! What else can it do? Can I get shiny like you did at the USJ? What about Zords? I want to pilot a Zord or two! Can you teach me to pilot one? When can you tell me about the more Power Ranger stuff? Oh, I forgot I met Eri and Raphtalia! They are so adorable and cuddly. They call you Papa? Who is their Mama? Can I babysit them sometimes? Please? I have so many neat things to show them! I promise to keep them safe and happy. Miruko said you're good at analyzing Quirks. Can you analyze mine and give me some pointers, please? Pretty please?"
Izuku sat there blinking at her question and the fact that Nejire breasts were pressed against his chest. His brain was trying to process all of her questions and reboot.
"I'll kill her," Ochako muttered as she tried to get up, but Pony had a sold grip on her. "Let me at her."
Pony shook her head. "Not in public Ochako." She muttered resisting the urge to jump at the older girl and reclaim her boyfriend.
Toru's skin turn a dark red as she watched this girl just shove her massive chest against her boyfriend and started badgering him with questions. Her tail was curled up tight against her body. she started to growl.
Setsuna. "Holy shit, she just talked like Izuku! How is this possible?" She asked blinking at the girl. She was trying not to cause a scene with her being on top of her boyfriend, but if she kept it up she wouldn't hold back.
"She had got 30 seconds to let him go or else," Mina said as her eye was twitching with annoyance. She could tell that Izuku was frozen from her being so close to him.
"I'll start counting down," Kyoka said darkly as she prepared her jacks to strike the older girl. She would chase her off and get her Izzy back.
"Agreed," Momo said starting to craft a few items to deal with her and make a run with her Darling Izuku to safety.
The seven girls were sending a killing aura toward Nejire, but she was oblivious to it.
Most of the guys in the cafeteria were calling him a lucky bastard for The Nejire Hado to be so close and giving him her full attention like that. They were joking about paying anything to trade places with him.
Mirio groaned. "Nejire, you're standing too close to him," He said trying to help the poor guys. when Nejire was excited about something she would forget about personal space and manners. He could see several girls were sending angry looks at Nejire.
Tamaki took out his phone and sent a message to the one person that was able to reign Nejire in. He knew from experience that this was going to get out of hand very quickly. He took a step behind Mirio and waited for the powder keg to explode.
Izuku's mind seemed to reboot and he blinked a few times. "I'm glad my sisters talk about me so much, Yeah, Miruko is pretty amazing. Congratulations on getting a Morpher. It can do many functions that I can go it detail with you later on. The Metallic Metal Armor is exclusive to a select few Ranger forms. Yes, you have a Zord. There is a pilot program to teach you how to pilot a Zord. You just need to find time to use the training program. You should get a message soon about Power Ranger stuff for this afternoon. "Yes, Eri and Raphtalia are my daughters. Yes, they are cute and cuddly. Their Mama's are around. You would have to talk with my Mom about your wanting to babysit them. I am glad you want to keep them safe. Miruko is right, I do analyze quirks and I am sure I can find some time to give you some pointers." He replied looking her in the eyes as he answered each question.
Mirio just blink. "Wow, that is impressive.' He said looking at Nejire and winced. "Oh, no." He could tell she was getting really excited. This was not a good sign.
"How does he do that?" Mina said in awe of Izuku. He answered every question and from what she could tell was in the right order. "That was so cool."
Ochako looked at Nejire face and could tell her eyes were starting to shine. "Uh, oh," she said preparing to jump to save her boyfriend. The other girls noticed this and were starting to move to grab Izuku to keep him safe.
Nejire squealed with delight as she grabbed Izuku and pulled his face into her massive bust. "Mine!" She called out holding him in place. "He is my squishy now!" She said swinging him back and forth. She kept him tight against her chest. Izuku was flailing his arm wildly trying to escape but to no avail.
"smsm cmala Ryoaoah!" (Translation: "Someone! call Ryukyu!) Izuku tried to say as he struggled to escape from Nejire's chest. "Hewwep!" (Help!)
“THAT TEARS IT!" Ochako yelled lunging across the table for her boyfriend. She barely missed him as Nejire quickly spun away. "LET HIM GO!" She scrambled back to her feet to give chase.
"Mine," Nejire replied using her spirals to hover away as she chatted away to the trapped Izuku. “My squishy now.”
Momo created a lasso and handed it to Pony. She then created a capture net. "Hand him over." She said glaring at Nejire. Momo tossed the net high enough for it to try and catch Nejire. Momo growled as Nejire darted away evading the net. "You will be handing him over."
Pony started twirling her lasso. She let her muscle memory take over as she attempted to snatch Izuku from Nejire's clutches. She smirked at being just about to reach her target when Nejire changed directions again. "Drat. She is a rascally little varmint.” Pony complained in English as she went to make another attempt to rescue her boyfriend.
"I got him! I got him " Setsuna shouted sent detaching her hands and sending them towards Izuku to pull Izuku free from his breast purgatory. Her hands just barely grasped Izuku's jacket when they got caught by Pony's lasso. "I don't got him." She looks over at her fellow class 1-B classmate. "Thanks a lot, Pony."
"Sorry Set!" Pony said callout out and quickly freed Setsuna's hands from her lasso.
Kyoka sent her jacks towards Nejire face ready to strike. "Let him go you nut job!" She growled as Nejire was able to evade the jacks. Kyoka had to pull them back so she didn't hit Izzy by accident. She was close to grabbing hold of Izuku's waist when they wrapped around Ochako in mid-jump. "Sorry, Chako."
"It's fine Kyo," Ochako replied after getting back to her feet. "We need to save Izuku."
Toru had turned completely invisible with the help of her Dino gem and waited for the moment to snatch Izuku from Nejire. She waited for her chance to lunge for Nejire. "I'm coming Izuku!" Toru called to her boyfriend as she appeared at his side trying to pull him free. She landed on the floor when Nejire flew up suddenly. “Damn." Toru grumbled as she slid across the floor.
"My squishy," Nejire said flying up to evade Toru's grab attempt. “I’m gonna keep him.”
Mina was trying her best to dodge the other girls as she sent a few handfuls of slime toward Nejire. She was trying not to hit Izuku by accident as she moved closer to make a grab for him. "Almost there," Mina said reaching for Izuku's jacket. She tripped over Toru and tumbled to the floor. "Ugh. How hard is it to catch one chick with blue hair?" She asked scrambling back to her feet.
"Very hard apparently," Toru said with a grunt as she got back to her feet. "I don't think he is going to last much longer."
Yui stalked over and enlarged a lunch tray to block Nejire path. "Drop my best friend you big-breasted menace." She started to enlarge other items to block Nejire path. “Drop him now.”
Hitoshi tried to brainwash Nejire, but she was ignoring him. Fumikage tried to have Dark Shadow stop her, but Nejire evaded him with ease. Kirishima tied to help as well, but he could not catch her.
Mirio was trying to corral his friend but he was unable to use his quirk without losing his clothes and he did not want a repeat of last year’s Sports Festival. "Nejire. You have to put him down. This is getting out of hand." He tried to reason with her, but she just continued to float around evading the other students.
"Don't want to," Nejire said dodging another attempt Momo and Ochako. “Squishy has fluffy hair.”
They were all preparing to rush her all at once when the door to the cafeteria burst open and a girl with short red hair stomped inside with Midnight and Mr. Aizawa right behind her. "NEJIRE HADO! YOU WILL PUT HIM DOWN RIGHT THIS INSTANT!" She said glaring at Nejire.
Nejire froze in mid-air before rushing towards the red-haired girl. "But, but Yuyu, He answered all my questions!" She said quickly. She held Izuku in place with one arm and pointed to him with the other arm. "He's my squishy!"
"While that is impressive Nejire,” Yuyu just gave her girlfriend with a stern gaze. “If you will don't put him down this instant, I will withhold cuddles," Yuyu said crossing her arms and waiting for Nejire to decide.
"NO!' Nejire exclaimed. She let go of Izuku immediately, letting him drop down to the ground and Nejire dropped to her knees to beg. "Please not the cuddles!" She started to pout. "I'll be good. I promise Yuyu."
“We’ll see,” Yuyu said still glaring at her girlfriend. “We’ll talk about it after school today.”
Izuku gasped for air as Pony and Ochako rushed to his side to check on him.
"Izuku are you ok?" Ochako asked still glaring at Nejire.
"Yeah," Izuku took a deep breath. "I'll be ok, just grateful to be able to breathe again.”
"Just sit here for a bit Izu." Pony said patting him on the back. “We’ve got you.”
Momo walked over to Yuyu. "Excuse me, Yuyu was it? How did you get Nejire to behave just like that?" She asked out of curiosity.
"Oh, Midnight taught me," Yuyu said pointing to her teacher. "She taught me a lot of things when I interned with her last year," Yuyu said looking at Momo. "Why do you ask?"
"No reason," Momo replied quickly. She went over to check on Izuku and made plans to approach Midnight for an internship in the future. She went over to check on Izuku with her own eyes.
Mr. Aizawa glared at the other students. "Finish your lunches and head to your next class before I start handing out detentions." He said glaring at the students who either went back to eating lunch or made a look for it.
“Mr. Aizawa, Midnight," Izuku said looking at the two teachers. "How long have you two been here?" He asked as he caught his breath and started to calm down after almost getting suffocated by Nejire.
“Since the moment Nejire walked into the cafeteria.” Midnight said with a mischievous smirk. “I have to say you girls did pretty well all things considered.”
“Considering what?” Mina asked frowning at her teacher. “If you both saw her shove Izuku face into her chest then why did you not step in sooner?”
“Considering that she was just evading and didn’t attack any of you. She is one of the Big 3 for a reason.” Midnight said snickering at her brother. “I am sure most of the male students and a few female ones would have killed to be in your place little brother.”
Izuku rolled his eyes. “I’m feeling the love, Sis." He said sarcastically. Izuku looked over to see Shouta with a smirk on his face. “What is your excuse?”
“Think of it as a type of escape training," Shouta replied as he adjusted his capture scarf around his neck to hide his smirk batter. “I think you need to spend more time learning how to escape a stronger opponent.”
Izuku's eye twitched. "I'll remember this." He grumbled getting back to his feet. "I'm going to finish lunch and pretend this didn't happen."
Midnight started laughing as she sent the video to her chat with Inko and her sisters. She was sure they wanted to see the hilarity of Ryukyu’s intern meeting their brother for the first time.
Raphael watched the chaos unfold in the cafeteria and looked at his brothers. "Ya know. I thought that school was supposed to be normal." He gestured to Izuku and their other classmates. "They seem like a pretty crazy bunch."
"More like an awesome bunch," Michelangelo said laughing. "I don't know whether to feel sorry or jealous of him." He laughed a bit harder.
Jennika just shook her head. “Boys.” She muttered before going back to her delicious lunch.
Leonard just shook his head and hoped that the rest of the day would be normal. “Anyone heard from Donnie?”
Michelangelo nodded his head. “Yeah, he made a new friend in class and they grabbed some food and headed back to work on something.” He shrugged as he savored his food.
"Well, at least Point Dexter made a new friend," Raphael said turning back to his tray.
Donatello was looking over a blueprint in front of him as she took a sip of his drink. "If we make a few changes and increase the power, I think we can get it to work." He took a pencil and marked a few spots on the paper.
Mei nodded her head as she finished off her sandwich and dusted off her hands. “We can try it after lunch.” She went and got the parts and tools she needed. “Let’s take another look and see if we can find anything else that we can modify.
“You’ll have to put that on the back burner for now.” Power Loader told them as he entered the Support Lab. “I was told to send you to the Auditorium with the Heroics students. Mei knows where it is.” He went to look over a few things at his desk.
The rest of lunch was quiet as they finished eating and headed off to their afternoon classes. They were told that they would be having a special lecture in the auditorium for their Heroic lessons. This lesson would focus on the students and staff that received a Morpher at the USJ. It was offered that anyone without a Morpher could use the class for a study hall if they wanted. Monoma and Bakugo got up separately and they took a piece of paper from the teachers before heading off to the library.
Bakugo wanted nothing to do with those fools. He was just bidding his time until he could continue his training. He had a month and he was going to use every minute of it. He hated having to hide his greatness, but he would follow his Master's orders. He kept hearing a voice in the back of his head, but it sounded like a buzzing noise that disappeared.
Monoma went to the back corner of the library and tried to study as his head started the throb. He started to get more flashes of conflicting memories. He reached into his bag for some pain medicine and hoped he could just ignore it.
After they left, Mt. Lady, Ryukyu, and Miruko walked in followed by the Big 3, Thirteen, Present Mic, Power Loader, The Wild Wild Pussy Cats, and some of the teaching staff. Mei went off to sit with her friends as Donatello went to sit with his brothers.
Everyone was talking amongst themselves as Mr. Aizawa walked onto the stage with Midnight and Izuku dressed in his SPD uniform following behind him. Everyone started to settle down as Mr. Aizawa stood at the podium. “Thank you all for your patience as we get this afternoon's lecture started." He waited as the overhead projector kicked on and the screen behind Mr. Aizawa was filled with the words Power Rangers 101. "As you can see by the title on the screen we will be going through different aspects of your new abilities and a bit of background about them." He gestured to Izuku. "Lieutenant Midoriya will be your instructor for this lesson." He flared up his quirk as several of the students started to talk amongst themselves to silence them. "You will treat him with respect and listen to his lecture or you will receive a detention from myself or Midnight." Mr. Aizawa gestured for Izuku to take his place.
Izuku walked over and took a deep breath. He picked up the remote to the projector and smiled out towards the Auditorium. “Thank you, Mr. Aizawa.” He said bowing his head slightly with respect to his teacher. “This will cover several topics that I am sure all of you are wondering about.” He moved to the next side that showed a video clip. “This was the clip that I watched the first time I was told I would be a Power Ranger.” He tapped a button to play the video.
On the screen was a man with short black and gray hair and a matching well-trimmed beard. He was dressed in a dark shirt and a bomber jacket. The man was sitting in an office that looked like it belonged to a college professor. He smiled as he waved to the Camera. “Hello, my name is Dr. Tommy Oliver. If you are watching this then you have been selected as a Power Ranger.” He reached into his pocket and pulled out a Morpher that looked identical to Izuku’s and showed it to the camera. “I know you must have a lot of questions. This will hopefully answer many of them. I should know. I spend most of my life as a Power Ranger myself.”
Tommy leaned back in his chair as he smiled at the camera. "I can honestly say that my life was never boring. I have fought against evil with some of the best and brightest minds. I have saved the world more times than I care to admit." He readjusted himself in his chair. "Taking on this mantle with of being a Power Ranger is not one to be taken lightly." He smiled at the camera. “I’ll tell you a bit about myself.”
He picked up a remote and held it in his hand. “The first time I heard of the Power Rangers was when I was in high school in a city called Angel Grove. I had heard about them battling an evil space sorceress named Rita Repulsa.” Several clips played showing 5 teenagers morphing to battle against putties and monsters. Student and Pro Hero alike were in awe as they watched the clips before Tommy's image returned to the screen. “I was the new kid at Angel Grove High School and was still trying to make friends when I was captured by Rita and placed under an evil spell." Tommy had a sad expression on his face. “Rita decided that she needed a Ranger of her own and she transformed me into her Green Ranger.”
The next series of clips showed him his battling the Rangers and beating them hands down. It showed Tommy destroying the Command Center and almost defeating the Power Rangers. "I was saved by the Rangers when they released me from Rita's spell when they destroyed the Sword of Darkness." It changed to Tommy joining the team and battling alongside the Ranger. “I help the Rangers battle against Rita and her minions.”
"Manly!" Kirishima and Tetsutetsu called out excitedly as they watched Tommy's redemption story battling alongside the other Rangers. Both were hit upside the back of the head by Momo and Itsuka. Both boys sat back down rubbing the back of their heads.
Nejire was trying to jump up and down but was held in place by Yuyu and Mirio.
Many of the New Rangers were awestruck watching these Heroes battling against Evil.
“I was wondering how they trusted him so quickly?” Denki asked. He wasn’t sure he could work with someone he once fought against.
Izuku nodded his head. “Part of it was because he was under Rita’s spell. They understood that, but there were a few bumps here and there before they figured it all out.”
"So, they forgave him and welcomed him as a brother in arms," Ibara commented with a smile. "I am glad to see such kind-hearted people."
"They did a lot of charity work and volunteered their time to a lot of different organizations," Izuku said tapping a button on the remote to show the Rangers doing various events.
“That is very impressive.” Mt. Lady said nodded her head. “It reminds me of the event Izuku and I do together.”
Izuku winked at his sister. “Let’s get back to the video.” He told them as he hit the play button.
"Eventually things change. I lost by Green Ranger Powers, but our leader Zordon was able to bring me as the White Ranger. Soon stronger villains like Lord Zedd came out of the woodworks and we had to grow stronger as well." The Thunderzords appeared on the scene as they battled against strong Zedd’s monsters. “Teammates changed, but the fight remained the same.” It showed three new rangers replacing several original members. "With each new Villain, we adapted to new powers and new Zords." It showed Tommy and the other Rangers traveling to get their Ninja Ranger powers and new Zords. “We never gave up and continued to fight on.”
“So cool. Kero.” Tsu whispered looking and her frog Zord on the screen.
"Quite fitting for you," Fumikage whispered. He slid his hand into Tsu's
Tommy reminisced as he told the long history of Power Rangers. He showed them the many amazing adventures as he chronicled the Alien Rangers, Zeo Rangers, and Turbo Rangers. “Eventually my time as a Ranger came to an end and the mantle was handed off to the next generation. I went off to college and kept tabs on the following Ranger Teams.” The next round of clips showed Space Rangers talking with what looked like their new classmates.
“Is that supposed to be us?” Raphael said looking at the screen in horror at his counterpart. “I look terrible!” He tried to look away but his eyes were fixed on the screen.
Leonardo nodded his head. “What happened to us there?” He asked aloud. They all looked older and odd somehow.
“I feel a bit weird seeing us look like that," Michelangelo said staring at the screen in confusion. “That doesn't look like Jennika.” He said pointing to the screen with the unfamiliar female turtle.
"I think it's safe to say that is not me," Jennika said rolling her eyes at the female turtles on the screen. "That girl seemed to be more like a wallflower than a ninja."
Donatello was sketching out a few things in a notebook. "Some of the vehicles are cool." He said looking at his fellow turtles. When they just started shaking their head. "What? I thought they looked cool. He went back to working on his sketchbook. “This just proves my multiverse theory.”
The class gaped in shock to see Zordon trade his life to save the universe.
"Why?" Kinoko said wiping their eyes. "Why did he have to die?" She mumbled thanks as Tsu wrapped an arm around her.
Shouta moved to look out at the auditorium. "This could happen to anyone," He said looking down at the ground. "Someday you may have to make a tough call and save countless lives at the cost of your own.” Shouta looked at the stunned faces of his students. The Pros in the room nodded their heads in agreement. “Many Pros live by the philosophy So Others May Live." He put his hands in his pocket and held a small keychain tightly in his hand. "There may come a day when somebody doesn't come home at the end of the day." He flashed back to the loss of her friend Oboro. All he had left of his friend was a gift of the day before he died. “Izuku can you play the video footage of your close call for your classmates.”
"Yes sir," Izuku said bringing up the clip on the screen. "This was from the day I saved my daughter Raphtalia." He hit the play button and watched the video as it showed arriving on the scene. The Auditorium fell silent as they listened to the comm traffic between Izuku and Mt. Lady. The video cut to Izuku's Helmet camera of his rescues of the group of civilians trapped inside.
"Yu, I got 15 civilians out via teleport, but I’ve got a kid trapped 4 flights up. I'm currently moving to get the kid out of here.”
“Copy Izuku, but make it fast even with this support the building is breaking apart too fast.”
Izuku looked at his Sisters and smiled at them. He could see his girlfriend’s looking at him and gave them a wink as they watched a hard day for all of them. The room grew tense as they watched Izuku rescue Raphtalia and try to make his escape.
“Abort, Abort, there is a massive bomb in the building Yu get away from the building!”
“Negative, I am not leaving you, where are you?”
“I’m almost out. Get clear now!”
The room flinched when the building exploded. The students just stared at the screen. Most of them had watched it happen live on TV, but with the addition of the conversation going on during the rescue hit home for many of them.
"Izuku can you read me? Please Respond!"
The room was as silent as a tomb. No one said a word. They knew all looked at Izuku unsure of what to say.
"Hey, can anyone hear me? I think something that explosion was blocking my communicator.”
Ochako let out a steady breath as she watched that horrible day. She was grateful to have Kyoka sitting next to her. Ochako looked around and the other girls were doing the same of comforting one another. She sent them a message saying after this was over, they would drag Izuku to an empty room for cuddles. The other girls nodded their heads in agreement.
Shouta stood in front of the class just like before. "This could have ended very differently." He said to everyone in the Auditorium. "I want you all to keep that in mind. We push you to go beyond your limits as your teachers so that you can adapt to any situation that is thrown your way." He looked over at Izuku. "Continue with the lesson."
The next to be shown was the Galaxy Rangers, Lightspeed Rescue Rangers. When he got to the Time Force Rangers many people started talking amongst themselves.
“Time Travel is real!” Reiko asked loudly and waited patiently for Izuku to nod his head. Reiko composed herself before bowing slightly. “Thank you.” She tried to contain her excitement.
Power Loader started to shake with fear and looked over to Mei was working on a blueprint he had seen before. He let out a sigh of relief. The last thing he needed was for Mei to start messing with Time Travel. “This is locked away someplace, safely right?” He asked.
"Yes, it is locked away where no one can get to it," Izuku replied. "I don't want to have to deal with the consequences of someone messing around with time travel.”
“Good.” Power Loader said feeling better.
"Anyone else have any questions?" Izuku asked the auditorium.
Yui stood up. “Were all the Zords destroyed?” She asked out of curiosity.
"Some of them," Izuku said showing various clips of destroyed Zords. "Some were just locked away and forgotten."
The Red Space Ranger,” Thirteen asked standing up. “Did he have a quirk? He was able to move things with his mind.” So far most of the Rangers were using martial arts and had no Quirk-like abilities.
“Sort of.” He showed a few more quicks clips of Andros. “He was from a planet KO-35 and they were taught telekinesis at a young age.”
“Incredible,” Thirteen said excitedly. “Real live Aliens.”
“Were all of them really Quirkless up to this point?” Hitoshi asked.
Izuku nodded his head. "Aside from their Ranger abilities, they were all skilled martial artists, athletes, or gymnasts." He replied with a smile. "Just like me." He looked around. "How about we continue on a bit and we can stop for more questions."
Izuku resumed the video and showed the next team was the Wild Force Rangers and their battle to protect the world from Orgs. Tommy also included the mission that reunited every Red Ranger for one more mission. He continues through more teams such as Team Ninja Storm. Many in the Auditorium cheered with Tommy's return to being the Black Dino Thunder Ranger. The auditorium grew excited each time a new team was introduced. SPD, Mystic Force, Operation Overdrive, Jungle Fury, RPM, Samurai, Megaforce, Dino Charge, Ninja Steel, Beast Morphers, and Dino Fury.
“I am sure there will be more rangers someday. It’s time for me to finally retire.” Tommy said with a laugh. “I’m not getting any younger.” He started spinning a ring on his left hand. "It's time I spent more time with my wife and son." Tommy stood up still looking at the camera. "From this day forward, you will be a new generation of Power Rangers. You will hold the forces of evil at bay. And May the Power protect you."
Izuku stopped the video. "Alright now that the video is over. Does anyone have any question they would like to ask?" He watched as everyone's hands flew up immediately. "I'll answer as many as I can.” He looked around. “What is your question Kirishima?”
“So, now that so many of us have Morphers of Rangers you normally use, does that prevent you from using our ranger form?” Kirishima asked pointing to his Morpher on his wrist.
"That is a good one," Izuku said hitting a few buttons and a new image came up on the screen. "Each Morpher is keyed to a specific Ranger form." He showed them various clips of Rangers morphing. "Think of it as a key. Each key goes to a specific lock." Izuku took his Master Morpher from his belt and held it out in front of everyone. "Mine acts as a Master key. It allows me to use any Ranger form I choose. Now the drawback is I can't hold that Morphed form for long if that Ranger form is already in use."
Itsuka was picked next. “Where do our Powers come from?”
"That is another good question," Izuku said placing his Morpher back on his belt. "I said before that our Morphers are like Keys. Well, the lock is what is called the Morphing Grid." He let various clips play behind him. "The grid is what gives us our Ranger abilities, weapons, Zords, ectara." He gestured his Morpher again. "Our Morphers channel the power from the grid and as long as we are connected to the grid we can Morph and fight villains like Scorpina."
Manga was picked next. “What about those of us that didn’t get a Morpher from the USJ?” A few other muttered along side him.
Izuku smiled at him. “You can still be picked at a later date, but that is up to the Grid and the System finding a match.”
Tenya was picked next. “I watched the announcement the other day by Principal Nezu said you were the leader of the Power Rangers. What does that entail." He had been curious about it since the day it was announced. Tensei had been praising his brother for how well he did during the attack on the USJ.
"Well, I would lead any Ranger team into the field. I would have two Sergeants report to me to help lead the Rangers teams into battle against the likes of Scorpina or other monsters like you saw in the video." Izuku told him.
“Who are your Sergeants?” Hitoshi asked when he was picked. He wasn’t interested in it, but he was still curious.
"I have not picked anyone yet. I was planning on asking if anyone wanted the job first." Izuku said looking at his fellow classmates. “Is anyone interested?” He watched as Nejire tried to volunteer but was held in place by Yuyu and Mirio.
Yui stood up and raised her hand. “I call dibs on being your assistant.” She said just loud enough to be heard. “I also nominated Itsuka as one of your Sergeants.”
“I second Itsuka nomination!” Setsuna said with a big grin on her face
Mina raised her hand. "I nominate Momo as the other! Who better to take that position than the Presidents of each class!" She said smirking.
"I second the nomination," Ochako said quickly.
“Mina, Ochako," Momo said in surprise.
“Yui, Setsuna!” Itsuka called out in surprise.
Tenya nodded his head. “It makes sense. They have proven themselves to be excellent leaders.” He bowed his in respect to his two classmates. "I look forward to working with you both."
Izuku looked at the two that were nominated. "What do you say," He asked them. "Do you two accept? You both have the option to say no." He wanted to make sure they made the decision.
Momo stood up and nodded her head. “I accept the nomination.” She said with a smile on her face. “Thank you both for trusting me with this position.”
Itsuka followed suit. “I accept as well.” She looked at her friend and classmate. “Thank you both for you believing in me.
Izuku smiled "We will find some time to go over your responsibilities later and I thank you both for stepping up. I guess I have an assistant as well." He watched Yui give him a thumbs up from her seat. "Now does anyone else have any questions they would like to ask?"
Melissa stood up when Izuku picked her next. "I noticed that since I have a Dino Gem, I have an extra ability from it." She activated her Dino power and blue scales appeared over her torso and arms. "Do other Rangers ger extra powers as well?"
“Those that received a Dino Gem receive a certain power from the Gem itself. The Morpher is part of the gems. So, Midnight, Kyoka, Toru, and you, Melissa all received those powers from your responding gems." He looked at his other classmates. "Those that received Morphers that do not come with power attached to them will just have their Quirks." He heard the grumbling. "Now some Morphers like Tsu give her an extra from to fight with. Her Ninja Ranger Form allows her some extra abilities, but they are not on the level of a Morphed Ranger. Also, those that received the Mystic Morphers can use magic." Izuku gestured to his Morpher. "My extra abilities require me to change to a specific Morpher linked to use that ability. I have to plan accordingly during my fights."
Mina, Denki, and Kinoko all smiled brightly.
Tsu croaked excitedly.
“How will teams work?” Ochako asked out of curiosity.
Izuku smiled at his girlfriend. “Teams will be broken down into two groups. A Squad and B Squad. One led by Momo and the other led by Itsuka. The teams will be cycled through so everyone will get experience." Izuku looked at his classmates. "Pros will be able to join us as needed or if they are available to assist." He looked at the clips playing behind him. "When the call goes out, A squad will be called respond, and B squad will be put on alert." He pointed to the SPD badge on his chest. “Our teams will be operating under SPD and we report to Hound Dog and Nezu.”
"We would get experience and learn how to work with different people while building up our teamwork," Fumikage said nodding his head. "Like how we were given random partners for Hero Trials."
“Exactly.” Izuku with a nod. “This may change as time goes on, but that is how we will operate for the time being." He looked at the clock and looked back to the crowd. We don't have a lot of time left so how about we go over different monsters and their foot soldiers you all met some of them firsthand at the USJ."
When the lecture came to an end Izuku sat down in a chair and took a deep breath. He was drained. It took everything he had to keep himself from stuttering and tripping over his words. He felt someone pat him on the shoulder and he looked up to see Shouta and Midnight standing in front of him. “How did I do?” He asked.
"You did very well for your first time," Shouta said with a ghost of a smile. "I should have you do this a few times a week to get them all up to speed."
Midnight came over and pulled him into a sisterly hug. “You did so good little brother.” She said ruffling his ponytail like she usually did. “Mom would be so proud of how well you handled the lecture.”
"Thank Midnight," Izuku said grinning. "I know that we have more training coming our way before the Sports Festival. Maybe we can work in some Ranger training alongside our normal Hero classes." He handed a folder to Shouta. "Here are just a few ideas that I came up with."
Shouta opened the folder and looked it over. “Well planned out. I will see where we can implement them.” Shouta said looking at his watch. “I have a meet with someone. I will see you both tomorrow morning.” He said making his way to the exit.
“Tell Emi, I said hi.” Midnight said with a wicked grin on her face. She started to laugh at Shout’s annoyed glare he shot her.
"I'm going to go get changed out of my uniform," Izuku told his sister as she started to head towards the locker room. “Later, Midnight, Shouta.”
Izuku made it to the locker room without any issues and changed back into his school uniform. He was heading back to meet up with his girlfriend when he was yanked into an empty classroom by several pairs of hands. After a quick glimpse around he spotted all of his girlfriend’s hugging him tightly. "This is a surprise." He tells them as he hugs them back as best he can.
"Reliving that day," Mei said quietly. She knew that he was safe, but she still had nightmares from that day. “Just want to hold you.”
"What she said Izu." Setsuna placed a kiss on his temple. "Just let us hold you for a bit."
“Yeah," Kyoka said softly as she use her jacks to caress his face. "We know you’re here with us, but you know.”
Ochako planted a kiss on his lips. “Just let us stay like this for a while.”
Toru nuzzled against Izuku’s back. “That was horrible to watch.” She mumbled out holding him a bit tighter.
"I agree with Toru," Mina said planting a kiss on Izuku's neck. "I almost broke down."
“Was horrible.” Pony said with a low whimper. She had to stop herself from squeezing him any tighter.
Momo lead the mall over to a corner and they all cuddled up together. “Just hold us, darling," Momo said planting a tender kiss on his lips. "Just hold us."
Izuku nodded his head as he held them as close as he could. “Ok, I can do that for my Queens.” He said kissing each one on the cheek. They stayed like that for about a half-hour when Izuku's phone went off. He tried to move to get it out of his pocket, but couldn't get a hand free. Setsuna smirked as she detached her hand and slid it into Izuku’s front pants pocket.
“Whoa!” Izuku exclaimed jumping in surprise. Ochako. Mina and Momo sent a glare at Setsuna who handed Izuku his phone.
"Just wanted to help," Setsuna said grinning at everyone. "Here Izu."
"Thanks," Izuku said feeling his face warm up at what Setsuna's hand brushed against. He opened the phone and read the message. "Nezu wants all of us to come to the conference room near his office for a meeting.” He said looking at his girls. “Says it’s very important.”
"We better get going then," Momo said standing up and moving to help the others stand up. “I would hate for someone to come find us like this.”
The other girls nodded and Izuku was the last one to stand up. They all headed to the conference room wondering was so important for Nezu to call them all for a meeting. He made a stop to pick up his daughters.
Izuku walked inside with his daughters and girlfriends. Izuku saw that of his all sisters, Kaina, Reiko, and Melissa sitting on one side of the table. On the other side sat Recovery Girl, A man Izuku knew to be Gran Torino, Toshinori Yagi, and his Aunt Mitsuki. At the head of the table sat Nezu with his mother on the left and Reiko's grandfather on the right. He noticed that something seemed to be bothering his mother, but he went to find a seat at the other end of the table and his girlfriend’s sat on each side of him. Eri and Raphtalia ran over and scrambled onto Ochako and Setsuna's laps. "What's going on?" Izuku asked noting that Reiko's grandfather still had his hood up.
“It’s a long story Izuku,” Inko said softly looking around the table. "What is going to be said will affect everyone is here." Inko took a deep breath. "You can show your face now.”
As soon as the man’s face was visible, Izuku and everyone (Minus Reiko) that was at Izuku’s lecture recognized the man standing next to Nezu as none of the Red Space Ranger Andros. “Hello everyone.” He said with a wave.
“How.” Izuku managed to get out before he was at a loss for words.
“All will be explained shortly," Andros said looking at Inko who was wringing her hands. "Do you want me to tell them?" He gave Inko a sad smile. "I can tell them for you if you want?"
"No," Inko said quickly. "It's time I stop hiding from my past." She stood taller her face grew serious. "I called you today because things are moving in the shadows and I have been hiding from this long enough.”
“Inko,” Kaina said softly giving her girlfriend a concerned look. “What’s going on.”
“My real name is not Inko Midoriya and I was not born of this Earth," She said glancing at the surprised looks on everyone's faces. "My real name is Queen Kinkoya of Triforia. I am the daughter of King Trey of Triforia and his wife Karone of KO-35." She gestures to Andros. "He is my Uncle and last known survivor of KO-35." She watched as everyone's jaws dropped in shock. "I have been on the world for 132 years keeping it safe from the shadows." She closed her eyes as long-suppressed memories came to the surface. "What I have to say will affect everyone in this room." She held out her hand and the Gold Zeo Staff appeared in her hands.
Everyone at the table minus Andros and Nezu had the same reaction to Inko's declaration. "WHAT!"

Chapter Text
“WHAT!?”
“Grandma is a Queen?" Eri asked looking at her sister.
Raphtalia nodded her head excitedly. “That’s what she said. So cool!”
“Queen!” Momo, Setsuna, Mei, Kyoka, Ochako, Pony, Mina, and Toru exclaimed together. They were all looking at Izuku and started to freak out.
Izuku's mind seemed to shut down as he was still trying to process what she had just said. His Mom was a Queen from another dimension, and both of his grandparents are from different planets. "I'm an alien?" Izuku mumbled as he put the pieces together. “I’m an alien?
“You’re half human, one-fourth Triforian, and one-fourth KO-35," Inko said slowly to her son. "I was hoping to have a bit more time to explain it all to you." She closed her eyes. "Part of me was afraid of how you would react Izuku.” Inko set the staff down on the table. “I'm the reason you were not born with a quirk.”
“You never had a quirk." Momo pointed out. "Just like in the training video. Inko's mother was from KO-35 and they can learn Telekinesis." Momo looked at Inko with awe and respect. "Shall I call you your Highness?”
“Just call me Inko, and you are correct Momo. I was born in a different universe, so I don’t have the quirk gene.” She said with a tired smile. “Izuku, I wanted to tell you for so long, but I thought you would hate for you being born Quirkless.” Inko was fumbling with her words. “It nearly killed me-.” She was cut off as Izuku rushed to hug her tightly. "Oh, my baby boy.” She said hugging her son tightly. “I love you son. You are my blessing.”
“I love you too Mom,” Izuku said before looking at her. “He was just a normal human?”
Inko seemed to hesitate for a moment before she answered. "Yes, your father was a human from Earth.” She turned him to face Andros. “Izuku, I'd like you to meet your Great Uncle Andros.”
Izuku walked slowly over to Andros. "Hello again."
Andros walked over and hugged his Nephew. “Nice to see you again nephew. We’ll have to catch up later.”
Reiko pointed at Izuku and Inko. “Grandfather, did you know we were related to them?” She asked looking at her grandfather. “When did you find out?”
Andros started chuckling. “No, I did not. It wasn’t until I met with Principal Nezu that Inko and I were reunited.”
“How is this possible Inko?" Mitsuki asked her old friend. "We were in the same class for our final year of high school?" She remembered that Inko always look out for her during their time in school.
Inko tapped a device on her wrist and her appearance shifted to make her look like she was about 18 years old. "This is a special device from Triforia called a Chameleon Band. It projects a perception field that makes the wearer look different to anyone around them. Since Triforians are known to live up to 400 years, we use these devices to allow us to walk among the different worlds without drawing attention." She tapped it again to return to her normal appearance. "Imagine meeting someone as a child and meeting them again 40 years later, and you haven't aged a day."
Inko smiled at Mitsuki "I started our Senior year remember? I needed to build a new identity and I needed a current High School Diploma." Inko informed her friend. "That is why I acted like a mother hen around you."
Mei was drooling over the possibility of that device. "I want one." She said zooming in for a closer look at the Chameleon Band.
"Amazing," Melissa muttered as she looked at the bracelet with a desire to take it apart and study it.
"We'll discuss it later Mei," Inko said with a smile. She already planned on giving one to Mei for Christmas.
“That long of a life span would unsettle a lot of people.” Recovery Girl said nodding her head. “They would get jealous and try to either experiment on you or worse." She had been alive long enough to see the stupidity and ignorance of humanity.
"Correct," Inko replied with a nod. "Very few people of Triforia make friends off-world, but my father became good friends with the Power Rangers of Earth.” She smiled as she remembered his stories. “He was fighting against Dark Spectre and his forces on the day Zordon fell.”
"We just watched that!" Ochako said in excitedly.
Kyoka nodded her head as well. "Yeah, it's crazy to meet someone from that universe in person."
Melissa rose her hand. "I-I feel like this is a family conversation," She expressed a little confused as to what was going on. "Why were we asked to come here?" She asked pointing to her Uncle, Mitsuki, Gran Torino, and Recovery Girl.
"Nana Shimura," Inko said softly. She watched as All Might, Gran Torino, Melissa, and Recovery Girl froze in place at the name. “What I have to say will have a lot to do with her and her 'Quirk'." She looked at the others around the table. “Alright, I will answer some questions and then I am going to tell my story. No questions about how I got here. I will answer that shortly. Nothing you hear today leaves this room without talking to myself or Nezu first.”
“I hate to ask Inko, but if you have been here for 132 years, how old are you?” Kaina asked before wincing. “I'm sorry babe, dumb question. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact I'm dating a hot alien Queen.”
“Wait, you two are dating?” Mitsuki said surprised. “Why am I just hearing about this now?” She looked over at Inko with a mocked look of betrayal. "You've been holding out on me!"
"Same here Mom," Midnight said with a big grin on her face. "When were you going to tell us?" Miruko, Ryukyu, and Mt. Lady nodded their head as well.
"We can talk about that later," Inko said quickly. "I am 149 years old. I was 17 when I arrived here on this earth.” She sent a soft look at Kaina. “Queen or not, I am still your girlfriend Kaina.”
"Good to know dear," Kaina said blowing Inko a kiss before looking to see everyone smiling at her. “You all saw nothing.”
"I beg to differ." Mt. Lady said with a smirk.
"I have a question," Mina said raising her hand. "Since you're a Queen, does that make Izuku a Prince?" She looked to see the other girls nodding their heads quickly to the question on all of their minds.
“Yes,” Inko said with a smirk at Mina's question. "Since Izuku is my son, he is a Prince and that would also make Eri and Raphtalia Princesses since they are his daughters." Inko smiled as she watched her son's girlfriends talk amongst themselves. "When Izuku marries, his spouse, or should I say spouses will become princesses as well."
Ochako face turned a bright pink, and she started to float out of her chair. "Prince!" She squeaked out before Kyoka pulled Ochako back down with her jacks.
"He's really a Prince?" Momo said as her cheeks flushed a dark red. Several thoughts came to mind and she had to suppress the urge to lick her lips. “Ara Ara.”
“He’s an alien prince!” Mina squealed as her cheeks turn a dark purple. “We hit the jackpot!”
“Definitely!’ Pony agreed as she bounced in her chair. She had plans to make.
"Wicked," Kyoka said with a light blush on her cheeks.
“Marry!” Izuku exclaimed turning a bright red. He loved the girls, but he was wanting to wait until after school was over to get married. He could see a gleam in their eyes and he swallowed hard.
“Yeah!” Eri and Raphtalia said excitedly.
"You need to marry them, Papa! That way they can be princesses like us!” Raphtalia said quickly.
“Yeah, marry them Izuku.” Midnight teased her brother as Mt. Lady snickered.
Izuku’s girlfriends turn just as red at the thought of marriage.
"We'll talk about it later," Izuku said quickly before covering his face with his hand.
Ochako looked over at Mei. “I think we need you to build that Robotic army that we talked about, Mei.” She pointed at Izuku. “Now that he's a prince, we need to keep him safe.”
"I shall supply any materials you require," Momo said as fantasies fill her head.
"I'm on it," Mei said taking out a sketchpad and starting to sketch something out.
Pony rose her head. “Can Izuku learn Telekinesis since he is partly from that planet?” She knew her boyfriend had access to various abilities, but he could have his own ability, she wanted him to be happy.
Inko gave the girl a sad smile. "I tried that." She looked at Izuku. "I tried to teach you the same way I was taught by my mother, but it didn’t work.” She closed her eyes. “It hurt so much to watch the light leave your eyes after that doctor visit.” She had to suppress the memory of the pain in her son's eyes after his diagnosis.
"Mom," Izuku said softly. "I'm a Ranger now. It all worked out in the end."
Inko looked at her son with a smile. She felt her age. She had been carrying some much guilt and sadness that it had weighed her down. “There is more you need to know Izuku. So, much more.” She reached into her pocket and pulled out a sphere and rolled it on the table. It stopped and opened up and began to project a sphere in the middle of the table. “Showing you will be easier for some of this. This device allows me to copy my memories for viewing.” As an image started to appear on the screen Inko spoke. “My story begins 133 years ago on the planet Triforia.”
Triforia 133 years ago.
"Hey, it's time to get up sleepy head." A woman's voice called out as the lights to the bedroom came on in the darkened room. "I know you can hear me Kinkoya." The woman said again as she opened the curtains allowing more light into the room. The woman turned with a small smile on her face as she looked at her daughter trying to stay in bed.

"That is my mother, Queen Karone of Triforia. She had been through a lot of things in her life. She was abducted from KO-35 when she was a child by an evil being named Darkonda and was given to Ecliptor to be trained. She spent countless years as a servant of Dark Spectre under her new name Astronema.” Inko told them as the images moved across the screen.
Andros moved to stand beside Inko. “I saved her years later and helped her regain her memories of our parents and of our home world of KO-35. She would later join a team of Powers Rangers as the Pink Galaxy Ranger. Karone remained the Pink Galaxy Ranger until Terra Venture crashed on Mirinoi after Trakeena’s defeat. She returned the Pink Quasar Saber to its altar, which resurrected Kendrix the original Pink Galaxy Ranger.”
“Setsuna nodded her head. “We saw that today as well.” She looked at Inko and nodded her head. “It makes sense that since Inko is a badass that her Mom would be one too.”
Inko winked at the lizard girl before resuming her story. “After several years of struggling to find inner peace and trying times as she tried to atone for her past actions as Astronema. She eventfully came to Triforia for some much-needed peace and quiet. It was during her time there that she met my father Trey.” The image on the screen shift to a picture of Trey and Karone. "Eventually, they fell in love. She discovered that he was royalty on the planet, their king, in fact. They married a few years later, and Karone became Queen. A year later, the planet rejoiced in the birth of their daughter. Me.”
Inko took a shaky breath. “Today was a special day for the planet of Triforia. It was time for my official coronation as Princess, and I was to take up my royal obligations as Princess of Triforia.” She waved her hand over the image. “Watch.”
Triforia 133 years ago.
Kinkoya groaned in her bed as she tried to pull the blankets over her head to hide from the light. "Mom." She groaned from underneath the covers. "It is too early for this. Come back in an hour or two Mom." Kinkoya groaned as she burrowed deeper into her bed. She was warm and comfortable at the moment. She had been practicing the coronation for over a week now and it was so boring for her to sit through. She preferred to fight and train with her father. She had stayed up the night before reading one of her favorite romance novels. She just wanted to sleep a bit longer.
"I will give you until the count of 3 before I flip you out of your bed young lady," Karone said with a stern tone. There was a lot to do before the ceremony started and this was going to put them behind schedule for the morning. "I am not joking this time."
“You wouldn’t dare.” Kinkoya challenged back from underneath her blankets. Her mom and been threatening to do that to her for years.
“You really want to test me today?” Her mother said replied with a challenging tone. “1-2-.”
"Alright!" Kinkoya said quickly. The threw the blankets off of her bed sitting up in her bed groaning. She shielded her eyes from the light. She tossed the blankets off and grumbled the entire way to her bathroom. She quickly showered and came back in to see her mother waiting for her to return with a tray of food next to her on the bed.
"Now eat your breakfast so we can get you ready. The ceremony will start soon." Karon said gesturing for her to sit down next to her. She smiled at her daughter's frown at the word ceremony. "Get that frowning out now. You need to smile soon in front of a lot of people.”
"Yes, Mom," Kinkoya replied automatically as she started to eat her breakfast. She knew today was going to try her patience. She had made it through the coronation practice barely without screaming at people in frustration.
As soon as Kinkoya was finished eating her breakfast a swarm of servants came into her bedroom to get her ready. They bathed her and got her dressed in an elegant black dress with gold trim and belt. They then styled her hair and applied make-up after receiving a glare from her mother when she started to fidget. Eventually, they finished most of the servants and left Kinkoya in her room with her mother and a few aids. They had dressed her mother Karone in a dark pink dress trimmed with gold. They placed a simple gold crown with a single pink gem in the center atop her head. They applied a light layer of make-up before her aid's left them alone in the room.
Kinkoya barely recognized herself in the mirror as she looked herself over. She normally threw her hair up in a ponytail before running around in her training gear most of the day. She felt her give her shoulder a little squeeze and looked to see her mother smiling at her. "What?" she asked
Karone just shook her head "It's nothing dear, you look beautiful." She looked at the clock. Come on, let's get going dear the ceremony will be starting soon." Karone helped her daughter up as they left the room together.
It was a short walk to the throne room as Kinkoya looked around to see people already starting to gather outside the palace. People were bustling about putting the finishing touches on the decorations and double-checking to make sure everything was in place. She walked in to see her father have a serious conversation with her Uncle Tarrion. She noticed that they seemed tense. Her father was stroking his graying beard as he listened intensely to what her uncle was saying with a serious expression on his face. Karone and Kinkoya caught the end of their conversation.
"Alright General. I concur with your assessment." Trey agreed before letting out a tired sigh. "Put our forces on alert and have my guards in the throne room ready to respond. Just in case." He returned the salute as the General departed the room quickly. Tarrion sent Kinkoya a wink as he started walking through the door. Trey let out another sigh before he looked to see his Wife and Daughter walking towards him. Trey smiled at them. "There is my lovely Queen and beautiful daughter.” He moved to kiss his wife and hug his daughter.
Kinkoya looked at the door her Uncle Tarrion had just left through and turned back to look at her father. "Dad is everything alright?" She could tell he was still apprehensive from whatever he had talked with her Uncle about. Her father had ruled Triforia for 140 years. Their people had been concerned that the royal line would end with her father until the day he married her mother. Kinkoya had noticed over the last year or so that the planet's military had slowly become more active and that the guards seemed especially tense the last few weeks.
Trey looked towards his wife who was just as concerned. "There was an incident on the edge of our system about an hour ago." Trey watched both of them look at him with concern. "A scouting force tried to enter the system to reach the planet, but our fighters intercepted them quickly," Trey informed them as he gestured to a small room off the side for them to sit. "The General and I agree that we place the planet on alert and see what happens."
Karone's face grew serious. "He coming after your staff and the Zeo Crystals."
Trey nodded his head at his wife and pulled his wife into a hug. “I believe so.”
Kinkoya looked at her parents. “Who is coming? What is going on?” She watched as her parents seemed to be having a silent conversation in front of her.
Trey took a deep breath before speaking. “The person who is coming here is called Lord Drakkon." He watched his wife call for an attendant and whisper something into their ear before they darted out of the room.
Kinkoya frowned at her father “I thought he ruled over the earth? Why come here?”
Karone came back and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. “About three ago, Drakkon appeared out of nowhere and combined two Power Coins to gain immense power. It allowed him to conquer the planet Earth. He tried to spread outward, but after he faced the combined forces of the other planetary forces, he stopped trying to spread his influence after that." She looked up towards the sky for a moment. "He is after the Zeo crystals because they have incredible powers. If he gets his hands on them, he will become even more dangerous.”
The attendant returned to the room and handed her mother a small pink box. After her mother thanked her before she opened the box and placed her Galaxy Morpher on her wrist. Karone looked at the surprised look on Trey's face. "I am not taking any chances today dear." She gave him a look that told him not to fight her on this.
He quickly hands up his hands in a mock surrendering motion. “That is true dear.” He watched her cover it with the large sleeve of her dress. “Now let's get ready for the ceremony.” He gestured for them to enter the throne room.
They went through a quick rehearsal before it was time for Kinkoya to take her place. She looked out the window as people started to fill the palace courtyard. People were arriving from all over the planet to come and watch this special occasion. People were cheerful and excited as they walked around waiting for the ceremony to start. It was turning out to be a lovely day.

“Unfortunately, it would soon turn into a day that would haunt my nightmare for many years to come," Inko said softly. She looked over at Andros. “Can you take Eri and Raphtalia outside for this next part. Please?”
Andros nodded his head. "I can do that," He walked over and held his hand out to the two girls. "How about we go get some snacks?" He asked them in a soft tone.
Eri nodded her head and slowly took his hand after a quick look at Ochako and Momo. “Ok.” She said getting down to the floor. Raphtalia nodded her head and hopped down as well.
Inko waited for them to leave the room before restarting the memory.
Triforia: 133 Years ago
The ceremony had just started and Kinkoya was walking down the aisle towards her father as he held her crown in his hands. He was smiling brightly as she stopped in front of him. She glanced over to see her mother standing nearby with a smile just as bright. Kinkoya saw her mother give her a discreet wink as her father went through the longest part of the ceremony. She knew he had reached the end when he asked her a question.
"Do you, Kinkoya of Triforia accept the responsibilities of the royal family and solemnly swear to uphold our planet's laws and traditions?"
"I accept my responsibilities and solemnly swear to uphold our laws and traditions," Kinkoya replied as she knelt down in front of her father. She waited as he placed her circlet on her head before standing up. She watched her father gestured for her to turn around to face the room.
"It is with great pride that I present to the court the first official appearance of Princess Kinkoya!" her father called out to the room. The room was quickly filled with cheering and clapping. She smiled at the crowd as she scanned the room back and forth. 'Finally, I can meet with a few people and get out of this dress.' She thought to herself wanting to escape as quickly as possible. 'now if I can just-. ' Her thoughts were interrupted as an explosion near the palace shook the building hard enough that people were falling over. Explosions started raining down around the castle filling the sky with black smoke and screams.
Kinkoya rushed over to the balcony with her parents as they watched ships and troops start to flood the courtyard. She was stunned at what she was seeing. Kinkoya was jarred out of her stupor when her mother grabbed her by the arm and started pulling her away.
"Karone take her to Pryamidas like we planned," Trey said moving towards his throne and handing his wife a long metal case. "Go, I will hold him off." He kissed his wife before hugging his daughter and placing a kiss on her forehead. "I love you both."
Before Kinkoya could ask what was going on, she was pulled down the hall away from her father as he morphed into the Gold Zeo Ranger. Soon she regained her footing and ran alongside her mother instead of being dragged through a secret tunnel to take them to her father’s Zord. Even in the tunnels, explosions and screams could be heard as they ran. Finally, they reached the last junction where they spotted a group of enemy troops. "Stay here.” Karon told her daughter before raising up her wrist. “Go Galactic!” she morphed into the Pink Galaxy Ranger. She summoned her Beta Bow and took out the several Mastodon Sentries in their way with precise and deadly shots to their necks. “Hurry!”
Kinkoya hurried to catch up to her mother who was typing in the access code on the command pad. After the door opened Karone pushed Kinkoya inside where Pryamidas rested. She watched her mother input the code ushering them both inside the cockpit. Karone started up the Zord as Kinkoya looked at several bags and boxes in the corners of the cockpit. She noticed that the silver case was sitting at her mother's feet.
"Mother, what is going on?" Kinkoya asked. " Why is father not with us?" She was on the edge of a panic attack. Today was supposed to be a happy day for her and her family. It made no sense for someone to attack them. Where were their allies that were supposed to respond to help them repel these invaders?
“Like we told you earlier, Lord Drakkon has finally come for the Zeo Crystals that your father has been protecting since Drakkon conquered the Earth," Karone explained to her daughter as she looked over every screen and checked the systems. "Your father is holding him off so we can escape." She input the last of the codes as Pryamidas started to hum to life. As she was putting the last of the commands into the ship's computer an error message flashed on the screen. "Damn," Karone swore as her fingers flew over the keyboard. She turned to face her daughter. "Stay here. I have to manually release the docking arms. If I am not back in 3 minutes the ship will automatically launch and take you to meet your Uncle Andros near Phaedos."
“Mommy no. Please." Kinkoya begged clinging to her mother's hand. "Please, don’t leave me.” She didn’t care that tears were running down her face.
"I'll try and be quick," Karone told her before hurrying out of the cockpit. “I love you Kinkoya.”
"I love you Mom," Kinkoya replied softly.
Kinkoya moved to the controls and accessed the camera around the palace. She started to scan through them. After a few screens, she found the throne room and gasped. Her father was on his knees being held in place by three Sabertooth Sentries. She recognized her Uncle standing beside a man in a ranger suit she had never seen before. She looked closer to see her Uncle was unrestrained. She hit a few keys to hear what they were saying.
"Give it up brother," Tarrion said with a smug smile on her face. “Tell Lord Drakkon where your staff and Zeo Crystals are hidden and I may be able to convince him to spare your life."
"I won't help him, Traitor," Trey replied raising his head to glare at his brother. "You betrayed us all for what? Gold or power?" He tried to fight against the sentries, but they held him securely in place.
Tarrion took a brave step closer to his brother. “I will be king of Triforia as it should have been from the beginning.” He spat leaning closer to remove his brother’s helmet. “Father made a mistake in choosing you over me.”
Trey let out a groan as he looked at Tarrion. "You betray our people over something that happen 140 years ago?" Trey looked astonished. "You failed your trials for the staff and I passed." He glared at his brother. "I am the rightful king. Not you."
"Not For long," Tarrion muttered before grabbing his brother by the hair. “TELL ME.”
Trey just smiled at his brother defiantly. “I can’t remember. It’s been a while since I last saw them. Maybe in the Sacred temple or at the bottom of the ocean.” Trey shrugged his shoulders as best he could.
“My patience grows thin Tarrion.” Lord Drakkon said in a menacing tone. “Hurry up before you join your brother on the floor.”
"Yes, my Lord," Tarrion said quickly. "Tell me now, or I will kill your daughter." He sneered at his beaten brother. "Or I may give her to Lord Darkkon’s men for them to use as their plaything."
Trey just looked at his brother and spat in his face. "I'll never tell you."
Before anyone could react, Lord Drakkon's blade was a blur motion. A moment later, King Trey of Triforia was dead. His head bounced off the floor as the sentries let his body fall to the floor.
“Find the Queen and the Princess. They may have what I seek.” Lord Drakkon ordered as his soldiers left the room. Lord Drakkon moved in another blur of motion and stabbed Tarrion through the heart with his dagger. “That is the price of failure.” He left the throne room without another look as blood slowly covered the floor.
"DADDY!" Kinkoya screamed as she covered her eyes. She gagged at the sight of her father being beheaded. She blindly hit buttons to change the camera. After a moment, she looked to see the camera was of a hallway in the palace. She scanned through the cameras and found the one showing the exterior of Pryamidas. She spotted her Mother working on a panel outside and a moment later the screen flashed green stating the lock had been disengaged. "Come on Mom. Hurry." She zoomed in to see she was on her way back inside when the door opened behind her. "No." Kinkoya whimpered.
Karone heard the door open behind her and swore as she turned around and started firing shots at the sentries that were spilling into the room. She dropped two Mastodon Sentries before taking cover and tapped her Morpher. "Pryamidas priority override. Command Depart to prearranged coordinates. Override code Omega, Queen, 9, 10, Alpha, Serria." Karone exited cover and went on the offensive as Pryamidas started taking off.
Kinkoya's hands flew over the keyboard trying to stop the take-off process. Everything she tried gave her an error message. As it started to lift off the ground, she watched the pile of bodies grew around her mother. "Mom. Please don't leave me." Kinkoya asked as she kept trying to stop the launch. Soon the bay door opened, and the skip slowly started moving towards the opening. She kept watching the footage as her Mother continued to fight on.
Karone recoiled as a shot from a Mastodon Sentry hit her in the shoulder. She dropped to a knee before taking them down with a shot from her Beta Bow. She watched as a few of the sentries were making their way to the launch panel. She adjusted her aim destroying the computer panel. She smiled under her helmet knowing that her daughter would be safe. She continued to fight on slowly losing ground. She was about to call her jet jammer to make her escape when she was hit with 3 black arrows. One to her left shoulder, one to her stomach, and the last one to her right leg. She screamed as fell to the ground. She looked up and sneered as a female ranger walked with a Pterodactyl Sentry on each side of her. "Kimberly Hart. It's been a while” Karone spat out trying to get up despite the pain. “So, Drakkon sent his lapdog.”
“I’m the Ranger Slayer now, but you know that Astronema.” Ranger Slayer said coldly keeping her bow aimed at Karone as she walked into the room. "Check the computer for the ship's coordinates."
"Wasting your time Kimberly," Karone said defiantly. "I trashed it so you can't find it." She pushed up to an elbow suppressing a scream of pain. "And the name is Karone."
Ranger Slayer held her position as one of her sentries went over to the computer for a moment before returning. "Ma'am. It's destroyed. We can't recover any data." The sentry said before returning to their previous position.
"Told you," Karone said smugly. She tried reaching for her Quasar Saber to fight back against the invaders.
Ranger Slayer held her bow steady for a moment before firing two shots into Karone's throat killing her. “What a waste.” She said looking at her subordinates. “Sweep the Palace. Find the Princess and the Crystals." She turned away leaving the bodies on the ground to report the loss of Pryamidas to her Lord immediately.
Kinkoya cried as the camera disconnected from the system as Pryamidas exited the Triforia’s orbit. She fell to the ground and cried curled up on the floor. She wept for her parents as Pryamidas traveled through the stars. Kinkoya stayed there until she fell asleep from exhaustion.
UA: Present
Inko was wiping the tears from her eyes when Kaina wrapped her arms around her. Inko could feel Kaina rubbing circles on her back and whispering comforting words in her ear. A moment later, she felt another person hug her tightly. She looked to see it was Izuku crying alongside her. She watched Mitsuki run up and join the hug a moment later. After a few minutes, Inko calmed down enough to continue. "I don't remember much after that. The ship was on a preprogrammed course for an abandoned planet called Phaedos.”
"Mom, do you need to take a break?" Izuku asked trying to lead her to a chair.
Inko shook her head. "No, I need to do this." She took a deep breath and pointed to the screen. "I had Uncle Andros add his memories to this as well. "Inko steadied herself and gestured for Izuku and Mitsuki to return to their seats. Kaina refused to budge from Inko's side.
Phaedos: 133 Years ago. (Andros)
Andros was pacing back and forth on the bridge of the Megaship as he looked at the clock for the eighth time in less than a minute. He had received an SOS from Karone that Triforia was under attack before everything went dark. He left Zhane in charge on KO-35 and left immediately to the rendezvous point in the Megaship.
"You will walk a hole in the deck if you keep doing this," DECA said tracking his movement on the bridge with her camera.
Andros sighed. “I know DECA. Karone should have reached out to me by now.” He went over to lean against the control panel. “I’m just worried.”
“It is understandable. She is your family.” DECA told him. “Wait I’m picking up a signal approaching from the direction of Triforia. It's cloaked."
Andros's fingers scrambled over the keyboard before smiling. "It's Pryamidas." He said looking as it started to decloak in front of him. "Hail them DECA."
"Hailing," DECA replied. “No response.”
Andros frowned as no one responded. “DECA run a scan please.”
"I am detecting one lifeform on the bridge," DECA informed him after the scan was complete. “They are not moving.”
Andros started to move towards the Glider Bay. “I am heading over to look around. Keep scanning the area and let me know if anyone enters the system.” He said running towards the tube.
“Affirmative.” DECA acknowledged over the ship's speaker.
Andros made it to the tube and jumped in “Let’s Rocket!” He morphed and directed his glider towards Pryamidas. He came to a stop near a security door and keyed in his code. Karone had added him when they were working on this contingency plan. He entered the airlock and waited for it to pressurize. After the light overhead turned green, he entered and made his way up to the bridge.
He opened the door to the bridge and his heart sank. On the floor was his niece curled up on the floor with tears running down her face. “Kinkoya,” Andros said softly touching his niece’s shoulder. “It's me, Uncle Andros.”
Kinkoya surged to her feet and latched onto her uncle. “They’re gone! Mom and Dad are gone!” She wailed as she held onto him with all her might. “He killed them.”
Andros closed his eyes as he held his niece just a tight. She was all the family she had left. "I'm sorry kiddo." He murmured before tapping his helmet. "DECA, bring the Megaship in for a landing on autopilot.” He lifted Kinkoya and sat down in Pryamidas’s pilot seat still cradling his niece. “I bring down Pryamidas manually.” He looked down to see Kinkoya had passed out in his lap.
“Affirmative Andros. I will follow you into Phaedos's atmosphere."
Andros guided the ship into the atmosphere and followed the preset coordinates saved in the computer. He guided the ship to a large clearing near a stone outlook. After both ships landed on the planet's surface, Andros demorphed and carried Kinkoya out of Pryamidas. He was going to let her rest in one of the empty bunks on the Megaship where DECA could help him keep an eye on her.
Andros was almost to the Megaship when he spotted a white owl flying low overhead. Andros watched as it banked wide and came around landed in front of him. As soon as the owl landed it changed into a tall fair-skinned woman with long brown hair that was curly and wild with a dark-green band around her head. She wore a dark-green outfit that looked like a stylized bikini and knee-high boots. A massive wooden staff rested in her hand. "Andros? Kinkoya? What is going on?" The woman asked rushing over to them.
“Triforia was attacked, Dulcea,” Andros said in a soft voice. He wanted to let Kinkoya sleep as long as possible. “Drakkon lead his forces there. I got the distress call from Karone and found Kinkoya alone on the bridge.” He held his niece a little tighter. “She said her parents are gone.” He felt his voice hitch at the end
Dulcea closed her eyes and let out a ragged breath. "Let's get her taken care of first." She said moving over to brush a stray hair out of Kinkoya's face. "Let's get her inside." She said quietly. "We'll deal with everything else later."
Andros nodded his head in agreement. He boarded the Megaship and went to the bunk room closest to his. Andros waited a moment as Dulcea moved past him and pulled back the blanket and sheets. He gently placed Kinkoya on the bed and tucked her in. "I'm going to looked at the logs on Pryamidas. Will you stay with her until I get back?”
"I can do that," Dulcea said moving a chair to sit next to the bed. "Tell me what you find out. I want to know what happened to Trey."
Andros nodded his head. “I won’t be gone long.” He replied taking one last look at Kinkoya before heading out to get some answers.
Andros felt sick as he finished the video footage of the death of his brother-in-law and sister. He broke down and sobbed. He held his necklace tightly in his hand as he mourned for Karone. It took him a while to compose himself in the cockpit. He spotted the long silver case and decided to take a look inside. Andros was stunned to see Trey's staff sitting inside the case. It made sense now why he had not seen Trey using it during the invasion.
He spotted a fabric bundle inside the case as well. Andros gently picked it up and opened it to find five Zeo crystals inside. Each crystal shimmered a different color. Red, green, blue, yellow, and pink. He quickly closed the bag and put it back inside the case. Andros closed the case and brought it back with him to the Megaship. When he walked into the room to check on Kinkoya, Andros was relieved to see she was still sleeping.
Dulcea glanced up at him. "How bad?" She asked returning her attention to Kinkoya. Dulcea has been holding Kinkoya’s hand when the girl started to whimper.
“Lord Drakkon and the Ranger Slayer lead the forces on Triforia," Andros informed her as he set the case on the floor. "They were after these." He told her opening the case first and then the cloth bag inside. "Trey must have known what Drakkon was after.”
"That sounds like him," Dulcea replied with a sad chuckle. She thought back to her old friends and their times on Phaedos. "He knew he couldn't win against Drakkon if he attacked, so he sent the staff and crystals away with his daughter.” Dulcea gave Kinkoya's hand a gentle squeeze. "She has grown up so much since she was last here." Trey had brought her to Phaedos every couple of years since she was born. She had the privilege to watch the young princess grow into a beautiful young lady. “What will you do now?”
Andros shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know.” He replied running a hand across his face. He was not sure where they could go. “Drakkon knows that Karone and I are siblings. He will more than likely bring his forces against KO-35 trying to find the staff and crystals." He gestured to Kinkoya. "I can't bring her back with me if there is a chance that Drakkon will attack.
"I agree," Dulcea said nodding her head. "You need to warn your planet that Drakkon and his forces may be coming their way.”
"After Kinkoya wakes up," Andros said looking at his niece. "I will take the Megaship off the planet and jump to another system to send the message just in case Drakkon’s forces intercept it and try to trace the signal." Andros would do everything in his power to keep his niece as far away from Drakkon as possible.

A knock on the conference door caused Inko to pause the memory again. She smiled as her Uncle peeked his head inside.
"Safe to bring them back?" Andros asked. After Inko gave him a nod he led Eri and Raphtalia back inside the room and let them run over to sit down on Momo and Mei's laps. "How far did you get?"
"Phaedos," Inko said with a sad smile. "It's been slow going."
"Who is this Lord Drakkon?" Toshinori asked. After watching the man in action, it sent a chill down his spine as Drakkon reminded him too much of All for One. "Your father said he combined two power coins?"
"That will have to wait for another day," Inko said quickly. "I can tell you he is a brutal tyrant wanting power and destruction. He combined the Green and White Ranger Power coins to become the monster that terrorized the galaxy."
"Your homeworld is gone?" Ochako asked wiping the tears from her eyes.
Inko nodded her head. "Yes, for a very long time." She looked down at her staff resting on the table. "I became Queen when my parents died, but I have no planet to rule." She looked at Izuku. "The Triforian Royal family had a book that outlined the possible fall of the planet. It states that any surviving members would find a new world to rebuild and any Prince would take on multiple spouses to help repopulate our people. It was one of the reasons I was so happy to see you girls confess to Izuku at the Command Center. The other reason was that you all care for him and made him happy."
Recovery Girl gave Izuku a stern look. "For the love of god use protection. Come see me and I'll give all of you some contraceptives." Last thing she wants was one of them to end up pregnant.
All of the Izuku's and his girlfriends blushed a bright red. Mitsuki and Kaina started snickering. Melissa and Reiko looked a bit uncomfortable. Miruko, Ryukyu, Mt. Lady, and Midnight busted out laughing.
"So, what if he had chosen only one of us?" Toru asked turning a slight pink from Recovery Girls' comment.
Inko shrugged. "I don't know. I wasn't planning on telling Izuku about his heritage until he was 18 or when he started to date someone seriously." She frowned slightly. "I would never put him in an arranged marriage. I despise those." She said in a cold tone. Inko glanced at her watch. "Let's resume for a bit."
Phaedos: 133 Years ago.
Kinkoya woke up feeling groggy. She felt someone holding her hand. She hoped it was a terrible dream and it was her mother comforting her. Kinkoya looked over to see Dulcea sitting in a chair beside her. "It wasn't a dream." She said quietly sitting up in the bed.
"I am so sorry dear," Dulcea said moving to sit beside Kinkoya and pulling her into a hug. "Let it out. I'm here for you." She let Kinkoya sob and scream as she grieved for her parents. Dulcea soothed her as best she could.
An hour later Kinkoya was emotionally and physically exhausted. She let Dulcea lead her to get something to eat and took her suggestion of a hot shower. Kinkoya showered and got changed into a fresh set of clothes. Dulcea had been by her side with encouraging words and hugs. "What do I do now?" Kinkoya asked aloud.
"What do you want to do?" Dulcea replied.
Kinkoya sat quietly for a few minutes. "I want revenge." She said angrily. "I want to make Drakkon and the Ranger Slayer pay for what they did to my parents." She clenched her hand's into fists. She looked at Dulcea with a blaze in her eyes fury. "Dad said you helped train him. You can you train me too."
"No," Dulcea said in a harsh tone.
Kinkoya was shocked. "You have to train me." She said standing up quickly from her chair sending it to the floor and leaning on the table. "I need to make them pay!"
Dulcea narrowed her eyes. "I won't teach you if your goal is vengeance." She stood up from the table and picked up her staff. "I taught your Father to defend himself and to fight for those in need of protection from men like Drakkon."
"I need to make them pay!" Kinkoya shot back angrily. "Dad started to train me to take up his mantle. I need to finish my training so I can use the staff!" She remembered the countless training sessions with him.
Dulcea narrowed her eyes. "Wait here." She left the room and came back a few minutes later with a familiar silver case. Dulcea opened it to reveal the Gold Zeo Staff. "Take it. See if you're worthy."
Kinkoya picked up the staff and took a deep breath. "Gold Ranger Power!" She called out but was stunned when nothing happened. "What?" She tried it several more times. "Why is it not working?"
"The staff has judged you unworthy," Dulcea said gently taking the staff from Kinkoya and setting it back in the case. "Revenge is never the answer Kinkoya. If you chose that path, then you become no better than Drakkon." Dulcea had lived long enough to see people become what they hate in the name of revenge.
Kinkoya collapsed to her knees. She was lost. She didn't where to go from here. "How do I become worthy? How do I prove that I am ready to take up his mantle?" She clenched her hands tightly. "
Dulcea stood quietly and studied Kinkoya intensely. Dulcea could see that the young girl hurting and in need of guidance. Dulcea held out a hand to the young girl. "I'll teach you." She gave the stunned Inko a small smile. "I will train you just like I once train you Father, but understand this. It will not be easy and if I get even a hint that you are using my training for revenge, I will stop your training immediately and I will no longer be your teacher. Do you understand?"
Kinkoya took her hand and stood up before bowing her head in respect. "I understand." She said quietly. "Please teach me."
"Let's go talk with your Uncle," Dulcea said placing a gentle arm around Kinkoya's shoulder. "Then we can get started."
UA: Present
"For the next year, Dulcea instructed me through the hardest training regimes I have ever lived through," Inko said shuddering at some of the memories of living in the forest for survival training or running 10 miles through the jungle. "Uncle Andros became our off-planet contact. He would keep us up on current events and would bring any survivors to Phaedos."
"Survivors from Triforia?" Izuku asked his mother hopefully.
Inko shook her head. "No, Ranger allies that went into hiding."
Andros cleared his throat. "While Inko was in training on Phaedos, I returned to KO-35 to help prepare for Drakkon's eventual attack. I traveled around gathering information and linked up with The Phantom Ranger." Andros showed them several images of them spying on the various outposts that housed Drakkon's forces. "As the year went on, Drakkon slowly conquered the galaxy."
"Why didn't the other planets not band together to fight him off?" Toru asked as her skin shifted to various colors.
"Fear," Andros told her. "After the fall of Triforia, the other planets refused to risk Drakkon's wrath and decided to fight alone."
"So, they choose to save themselves and make it easier for the bad guy to wipe them out?" Setsuna asked shaking her head. "They handed the universe to Drakkon on a silver platter."
"That's correct," Momo agreed with her friend. "Together, they could have fought him off."
"How soon until you arrived here on Earth?' Ochako asked curiously.
"It's getting close," Inko told her as she started the next memory.
Phadeos 132 years ago
Kinkoya wiped the sweat from her forehead as she finished up her morning run through the forest. She was on her way back to the tree line near the beach where several tent structures had been added. Two of the newcomers were a pair of Sirian's named Anubis "Doggie" Cruger and his wife Isinia. They were moving around the camp tending to the fire and doing a few chores.
Another survivor had the flap to their tent open working on several gadgets on a makeshift table. Her name was Kat Manx and she arrived the same day as Doggie and Isinia. Uncle Andros had saved them from a group of mercenaries that Drakkon hired and brought them here. Doggie had volunteered to help Dulcea train Kinkoya. Kat had offered to do maintenance on Pyramidas.
Inko waved at Isinia as she walked back into the came on her way to take a shower in Pryamidas. "Morning." she greeted the Sirian woman.
"Morning Kinkoya, breakfast will be ready soon," Isinia replied with a kind smile. "Go get cleaned up and see if you can drag Kat out of her tent on your way back." She went back to putting the finishing touches on breakfast.
"Will do Mama Cruger," Kinkoya said happily as she hurried off to the shower.
The past year had helped her come to terms with the loss of her parents and her planet. She still had nightmares and missed them terribly, but Kinkoya no longer thought about revenge. During the first few months on Phaedos, she struggled with the grief and loss. She almost quit several times, but then Dulcea taught her to meditate and walked her through the grieving process. After she was done grieving her loss, Kinkoya felt much lighter.
Dulcea and Isinia became like mother figures to her and they both looked after her helping and helped her deal with the nightmares. Doggie grew attached to Kinkoya as well and would spar with her quite often. They would also mediate together after their spars.
Kinkoya took a quick shower and changing into a clean outfit, she headed off to stop and get the local tech genius for breakfast. Since the arrival of Kat Minx, Kinkoya was drawn to the Neko woman. She had never been attracted to anyone on Triforia since they all treated her differently, Kat treated her like she was a normal person. Kinkoya knew it was silly to have a crush on Kat since she was so much older. Kat had explained that she was 163 years old but looked no older than 23. Kat told her that for every 7 human years that passed, she aged 1 year.
Kinkoya got flustered and tongue-tied around her. She knew it was a silly crush, but it didn't stop her from getting butterflies in her stomach. She could tell it was a bit warmer than usual outside when she came around the corner of the then and knocked on the wooded support beam. "Morning Dr. Manx, Isinia sent me to tell you th-." Kinkoya's mouth went dry and her face started to burn as she saw the good doctor sitting in pair of black cut-off shorts and a matching sports bra. Dr. Manx was lost in her own world of tinkering with something and Kinkoya watched a bead of sweat run down her face and tracked it as it moved down the Neko's neck.
Kat had been struggling with a part from Pryamidas and the heat was getting to her. She wiped the sweat from her face. She smirked and set the part down when she heard someone breathing fast inside the tent. She glanced over to see Kinkoya frozen in place red-faced. "Did you need something Kinokya, or were you just gonna keep staring at me?" Kat teased the younger girl.
"I-I-It's t-t-time for breakfast,'" Kinokya squeaked out before fleeing the tent.
After an awkward breakfast, Kinkoya followed Dulcea out for her morning training session. They had cleared out a small area for them to train. Kinkoya went through her stretches and looked over to see Dulcea sitting on a tree stump and a familiar silver case sitting at her feet. "Why do you have the staff with you?" Kinkoya asked feeling a pit forming in her stomach. She had not laid eyes on it since her failed attempt last year.
"It's time for you to try again," Dulcea said with a smile. She opened the case and picked up the staff before standing up. "You've come a long way since your last attempt. You have grieved and grown." Dulcea held out the staff in front of her. "Take it."
Kinkoya reached out and slowly took the staff from Dulcea. "Here goes something." She took a step back and took a deep breath, "Gold Ranger Power!" She cried out as she activated the staff. she felt the rush of power and a flash of light. Kinkoya looked to see she was now the Gold Zeo Ranger. "It worked!" She said excitedly as she touched her helmet with her gloved hand.
"Yes, it did," Dulcea said smiling as she walked over to pull Kinkoya into a motherly hug. "I am very proud of you."
"Would my parents be proud of me?" Kinkoya asked feeling emotional at taking up the mantle of the Gold Ranger.
"Extremely," Dulcea replied. "Come on let’s go show the others. Your Highness."
"What?" Kinkoya said confused for a minute before everything clicked into place. "The staff chooses the next ruler." She remembered her father telling the story about how he became King after the staff accepted him.
"Precisely," Dulcea said placing an arm around Kinkoya's shoulders. "Let's go."
As soon as they arrived back at the camp, loud cheering came from Doggie, Isinia, and Kat as they made their way over to congratulate Kinkoya.
“Congratulations dear," Isinia said hugging the young Queen. "I knew you would be able to do it." She stepped back to allow her husband a chance to step forward.
“You have done will your majesty," Doggie said with a slight grin on his face and beaming with pride. He was standing tall with his arms behind his back. “I am proud to call you one of my students.”
“Thank you both,” Kinkoya said softly as she took off her helmet. “I couldn’t have done it without all of your help.” She bowed to each of them. “Please call my Kinkoya. I am a Queen without a planet.”
"Still a Queen nonetheless," Kat replied and gave Kinkoya a quick hug. "Congratulations Kitten.”
Kinkoya felt her cheeks grow warm. "T-Thank you, Dr. Manx." She said carefully to not swallow her tongue.
“Call me Kat,” The Neko said with a playful wink.
Dulcea and Isinia sent Kat a warning look. Doggie just closed his eyes and shook his head.
"Now I think it's time for a celebration," Dulcea said quickly as she led Kinkoya further into the camp. They were just about to dig into their special meal when they hear a loud rumbling coming from the sky. They looked up to see the Astro Megaship coming towards the planet at high speed. “This can’t be good.”
They made their way down to the beach as the Megaship came in for a landing. As the sand started to settle the door opened and Andros hurried out of the ship. “Drakkon is on his way here!” He called out as another ship landed nearby. “We need to gather what we can and flee!”
"We knew he would come sooner or later. Load up what we can into Pryamidas and get the rest of the ships ready to go." Dulcea said looking deep into the forest with a surprised look on her face. "I shall return." She shifted into her owl form a flew deep into the forest.
They loaded the supplies into Pryamidas as quickly as possible and they were in the process of breaking down the tents when Dulcea arrived with a large sack tied around her waist. Kinkoya was about to ask about it when Doggie called out for her to help him get the tent taken down. She spotted another figure helping them move things. He was a tall man in blue armor with a katana on his back.
Andros looked over the remnants of the camp and turned to face everyone. "Alright, Kinkoya, Get Pryamidas up and running. Phantoms Rangers ship sustained damage in our escape and will dock his ship inside and accompany you.” He turned and gestured to the newcomer. “This is Ninjor, Phantom Ranger and I freed him from one of Drakkon’s dungeons on the Moon. He is from Drakkon’s universe and he can make Morphers.”
"Incredible," Kat said looking at the newcomer with a mountain of questions.
Doggie moved forward. "I will pilot our attack shuttle with Kat and Isinia. We shall provide cover for Pryamidas. The Zeo crystals are our top priority." He placed an arm around his wife as she moved to stand by his side.
“I will be the rear guard,” Andros said gesturing to his ship. “I should be able to hold off Drakkon’s forces long enough for all of you to escape.
"I shall accompany Kinkoya," Dulcea said moving towards the young girl. She removed the bag from her waist and opened it to reveal the Ninjetti Stone. “Something called out to me to take the stone and flee.”
“I thought if you left the planet you’ll-.” Andros trailed off leaving the words left unsaid.
Dulcea gave him a small smile. "I am bound to the stone now." She replied closing the bag and gesturing towards the ship. We should go."
Hugs were quickly exchanged as everyone hurried to their ships. Kinkoya took her seat in the cockpit chair and set her helmet on the ground near her feet. Her fingers flew over the console as the ship came to life. She tapped a few buttons and linked communications with the Megaship and the attack shuttle.
"Pryamidas is online and ready to go," Kinkoya said looking back to her guest in the cockpit. “Get as comfortable as you can. This may get a bit bumpy.”
“This is Doggie. Were set on our end.
“Megaship is ready to depart. I say we head for Aquitar. They may be able to hide us for the time being.”
Kinkoya punched in the coordinates in the computer. "Course laid in and taking her up." She slowly brought Pryamidas off the planet that had been her home for the last year. She would miss the world that had kept her safe. "Goodbye, Phaedos."
Dulcea moved to place a hand on Kinkoya’s shoulder. "Maybe we can return someday.” She said softly as she would miss her home as well.
Ninjor took up a mediation position and sat off to the side.
Phantom Ranger was standing nearby with his arms crossed.
They got their ships into position with Pryamidas in the lead. The attack shuttle was a short behind to prove support if needed. Andros brought up the rear with the Megaship of the convoy. They had been traveling for about an hour when Andros's voice came over the comms.
“Enemy ships are inbound from 6 o’clock. Full power to thrusters. We can keep ahead of them for now!”
“Copy that. Weapons are hot.”
Kinkoya sent more power to the engines. “We need to lose them. What is the plan Uncle?” She asked as she started to scan the various planets for a place to hide.
“Stay on course. I keep them busy. They are closing in fast. DECA weapons free!”
“Well catch any that get past you Andros.”
“Copy that. Kinkoya Continue on course.”
"Maintaining the course," Kinkoya replied frustrated. As powerful as Pryamidas was, it did not have any defense cannons besides the main finisher. She looked back to see the Megaship was taking heavy damage and was starting to fall back. "Uncle Andros! I'm coming back for you!" She was about to bring Pryamidas around when her Uncle replied.
“I am setting the Megaship to self-destruct. I will take the Shuttle to catch up with you.”
Kinkoya was about to say something a bright light started to come from the bag on Dulcea's hip. "What's happening?" She asked keeping Pryamidas on course as several rounds slammed into the ship's armor.
“I-I don’t know,” Dulceas replied honestly as she set the stone on the floor. The outline of the various Ninjetti spirits continued to glow brighter.
“The Grid!” Ninjor called out as he moved over and placed a hand on the stone causing the light to glow even brighter. "The grid is radiating off the stone!"
Kinkoya blocked the light as best she could. She looked to see her Uncle's shuttle getting closer along with the attack shuttle. "Head for the docking bay! I'll get us out of here!"
She watched as the neared Doggie's attack shuttle was slightly ahead of the Astro Shuttle. Before they could reach the bay, the Stone pulsed and the world went bright. Everything started to spin and twist until they were in an unknown planet's atmosphere. "Hang on!" Kinkoya said as she started to level out the ship as best she could. "Where ever we are, we arrive in the middle of a Hurricane!" She strained against the controls. She was guiding the ship to some landmass off its coast.
“Wait I know that landmass.” Phantom Ranger said trying to keep from falling over. “Were on earth! Japan!”
"How?" Kinkoya asked as she regained the controls and slowed their descent. "Uncle Andros? Doggie? Can you read me?" She asked guiding Pryamidas in for a landing. The weather was terrible and she had to keep a steady hand on the controls. “Can anyone read me?" The cockpit was silent except for the sound of the rain and wind pounding against the ship. "Anyone?" She asked softly. She ignored the tears running down her face as she brought the ship in for a landing. She activated the cloaking system and cried into Dulcea’s shoulder.
UA: Present Day.
Inko waved her hand and the imaged faded. “It was after we landed that we discovered we arrived in a different universe," She said looking at the stunned looks on the faces of most of the people in the room. She noted how late it was getting. “Dulcea, Ninjoir, the Phantom Ranger and I have been working in the shadows since our arrival, but that is a story for another day.” She finally sat down with Kaina by her side. “It is getting late, I have something else I need to discuss with you all. I will allow for some questions before I get to the last part of my story for the day.”
"How long will Zuzu live since he's half alien and half human?" Mei asked worried about her boyfriend. She wanted him around for as long as possible.
"Well, since I am half Triforian and Half KO-35, I've run my blood through the medical computer and I have about 60 years at most before my body will start to fall to old age," Inko said before pointing at Izuku. "I ran Izuku's blood after the USJ and he could live to be 150, but that is just an estimation."
"That's incredible," Setsuna said softly. She looked at Inko. "Do you have any other abilities besides your telekinesis?"
"Besides my longevity no," Inko said with a shake of her head. "I have had a very long time to practice my Telekinesis.” She focused on the table and lifted her hand. The table rose with ease and hovered in the air for a few moments before it slowly lowered to the ground. “I let people underestimate me.”
"Mom," Izuku said softly. "Was I chosen by the Master Morpher because I'm your son?" He asked. Izuku's mind was still processing this information. His grandparents were two legendary Rangers and now his Mother. Was it because of his family's legacy real reason he was chosen?
"No Izuku," Inko told him with a smile. "Like with my staff, The Master Morpher chose you because you worthy of it." Her smile grew brighter. "Look at all the good you have done. You have a kind and compassionate heart. You put others before yourself and you save both of your daughters from a dark fate. You are a Power Ranger on your own merits. The Grid chooses the Ranger and I must say it chose well.”
Kyoka seemed to hesitate for a moment raising her hand. “You have been around for so long and know how to be a hero. Why didn’t you train Izuku how to fight?” Kyoka asked as her curiosity got the best of her. “I mean you could have helped him prepare all of his life for UA.”
Inko didn’t flinch. “It’s true. After Izuku diagnosis. I watched the light leave my son’s eyes and I felt broken. When you live for as long as I have, that means I have buried more friends than I cared to admit. I have to pay my respects from a distance or after everyone else has left." Inko took a few calming breaths as the terrible memories rose to the surface. "I trained one person in my long life and they were a natural. I watched them fall to a monster. I failed them." Inko took a shuddered breath. "I was terrified to train Izuku. I could not lose him. I have carried this pain and guilt for so long."
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to-.’” Kyoka tried to apologize but Inko stopped her.
“Don’t apologize dear," Inko said giving Kyoka a slight smile. "It needed to be asked. I failed my son. Plain and simple.” She looked at Izuku. "I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you Izuku."
"Mom," Izuku said stunned. "I made peace with my past. For the most part anyway. It all happened to make me who am today."
“What was the name of the person you trained?” Ochako asked as her curiosity got the better of her.
Inko looked at Toshinori, Recovery Girl, and Gran Torino before answering Ochako’s question. “I mentioned the name Nana Shimura at the beginning of this meeting. She is very important in all of this.” Inko said as she tapped the Chameleon bracelet a few times and let it change her appearance. “Because Nana is my first child and Izuku’s older sister.”
“I have a sister?” Izuku asked stunned.
Inko looked at him. “I will explain everything.” She looked over at All Might "Been a while since you saw me huh Toshi?"
Toshinori went pale and started shaking. He was looking at a ghost. “I-Ino Shimura!” He managed to say as he looked at Izuku and his heart dropped. ‘I mistreated her little brother?’ He thought to himself. “I-Impossible.”
"Oh, my god." Recovery Girl said covering her mouth. "I thought I was losing my mind around you." She looked at Inko with a sudden understanding. "That day you were humming and it sounded so familiar to me." She pointed her cane at Inko. "She would sing it to the children at the hospital to get them to smile. I would pass by there on my way to my rounds. It was how I officially met ‘Ino’ while I was treating Nana after her first big hero battle.”
“I thought you caught me that day.” Inko giggled. “I haven’t hummed or sang that song in years. Being back around you, it slipped out.”
“Hang on a second!’ Gran Torino said confused. “After Nana died. Your son-in-law’s family at the time took Nana’s son from you.” He was an emotional mess. “Why didn’t you fight to keep Kotaro?”
Inko narrowed her eyes in anger. "I tried." She spat at Gran Torino. "After her husband died I took care of my grandson while my daughter grieved. When Nana fell, her husband's family came around and found a judge to grant them custody. They hired a series of detectives to dig up as much dirt on me and showed the judge all the inconsistencies about my past." She lowered her eyes to the table. "After that, I was given a restraining order and told never to come around. I kept tabs on them for a few years, but one day they disappeared. I tried to find them, but they changed their names and had the records sealed. After that, I had to change my identity and Ino Shimura died in a tragic house fire and I went underground. When I found him again it was years later and it was after his death made the papers.”
“Who is Kotaro? He’s dead?” Izuku asked trying to make sense of the conversation. “Mom?”
Inko took a calm breath. "68 years ago, I fell in love with someone. We were happy together for two years, but he had to return to America. It was after he left that I discovered I was pregnant and gave birth to my daughter Nana. She became my whole world and a bright spot in a very dark part of my life." She waved her hand at the orb and it showed memories of Nana from a toddler up to her graduation from UA. “She wanted to be a hero all her life and like Izuku. Nana was born Quirkless.”
"Bullshit." Gran Torino argued. "Her Quirk was Float. Nana told me everything.”
"My daughter was gifted in Telekinesis due to her KO-35 heritage. She was able to learn it and eventually taught herself to float with her mind. We agreed to pass it off as a Quirk." Inko smirked. "She also told me about meeting her Master En and becoming the seventh wielder for One for All."
Toshinori, Gran, and Melissa tensed up.
"I watched my daughter get married to a nice man and he made her happy. Eventually, Kotaro was born and I had a grandchild to spoil. Those were good times.” Inko said smiling at the memories on the screen changed to Nana holding her newborn son. "When Kotaro was 6, his father was killed by a terrible man. I watched my daughter grieve for her husband. I watched her come back to her old self when she was training you Toshinori.”
“Nana gave me a shot when no one else would," Toshinori said with a pained smile. "You patched me up when she got too rough.” He smiled at his training days with Nana. “You used to make me chocolate chip cookies after a hard training day.”
“I knew they were your favorite and since you were my daughter's student. I looked after you as well." Inko said closing her eyes. “On the day she went after the man that killed her Master En. I was in a battle of my own with Scorpina. She had taken a bus full of children hostage to draw me out. I saved them, but realized too late that I was tricked by Scorpina." She felt Kaina holding her tightly. "I arrived to find her on the ground barely alive."
“Oh god.” Momo gasped holding Eri a bit tighter
Mei was stunned and held Raphtalia a bit closer as well.
Ochako was crying as wiping her eyes.
Mina, Toru, and Setsuna gasped in horror.
Pony moved quickly to hug Izuku tightly.
“She was still alive when you found her?” Gran Torino asked softly. “She went down fighting. That was just like Nana.”
Inko's eyes were closed tightly. "Nana is still alive," Inko said and the whole room went silent. "Her injures were so severe that I took her back to Pryamidas and after my attempts to save her failed. I had to put her in a Cryostasis pod."
“Nana’s alive!” Toshinori exclaimed in surprise. “Why is she still in the cryotube after all these years?” He had mourned Nana for so long and she had not died that day. They assumed that AFO had taken her body as a trophy.
"Any type of treatment, surgery, or healing quirk I could find would take too long. She was at death's door when I got her into the pod." Inko told them as she felt exhausted. Kaina helped guide Inko to a seat. "I have watched over her for the last 30 years wanting nothing more than hold my daughter again in my arms. That is why I did not train Izuku. I was selfish. I am a horrible mother. My daughter lies in stasis, and my grandson and his family are dead. I have failed marriage, and I could not protect my son from a life of bullying and pain." Inko finally broke down and sobbed as Kaina comforted her.
Izuku stood up and rushed to his mother's side. "You took care of me all these years. When Dad left you were always there for me. When I was sick you would stay home and read to me and never left my side.” Izuku said making his mother look at him. “You were there to make many of my days brighter just by being there for me or making my favorite meal. I hide the bullying from you because I wanted to lessen your burden. I can’t imagine the amount of grief you have endured after all these Mom. I love you. Always and Forever.”
Inko pulled her son close and then pulled Kaina into the hug. The rest of the room waited patiently as they had their moment. Eri and Raphtalia scrambled off their mother's laps and rushed to join the hug.
"Can I see her?" Izuku asked softly. "I know she is in the cryotube, but can I meet my big sister?" He wanted to put a face to his sister's name.
"That can be arranged," Inko said softly. "I'm sure if I gave DECA the coordinates, she could teleport us right to her.”
“Before we do that I have been wondering why Mr. Yagi is here and what is One for All?” Pony asked looking confused like most of the room. “I noticed that Melissa and the Mr. Yagi tense at her name along with the old guy and Recovery girl.”
Gran Torino grumbled about being called old. Recovery Girl started snickering.
Toshinori looked at Mitsuki and Nezu before letting out a sigh. “Like Inko said before nothing leaves this room. I was trained from a young age by Nana. She saw my potential and took me as her student." He adjusted his shirt before buffing up. “For it is I, All Might!” He waved to everyone in the room before exhaling and becoming Toshinori again. “As for One for All, that will have to be for another day.”
Ochako looked like a fish out of the water as her mouth opened and closed.
Momo looked stunned at the revelation of My Yagi and All Might were the same person.
Kyoka started rubbing her head. "OK, this is becoming a bit much here people." She grumbled looking around the table.
Setsuna separated her head and shook it a few times before reattaching it to her body. “This is crazy.”
"Wait, Toshi sounds familiar to me," Mei said as she remembered some of the conversations while working at the command center. "Your uncle is ALL Might?"
“Yes,” Melissa said nodding her head. “Since my dad and Uncle Toshi have been friends for so long, He calls me his niece.”
Mina groaned as she rubbed her head. “This is too much tea for one day.”
“Amen," Toru added as her skin shifted to various colors.
"This day is becoming incredibly fascinating," Reiko said looking around the table at everything going on. "I would like to meet this Nana as well."
Nezu looked at his phone. “I am afraid I will have to step out. I have an important call coming in.” He looked to Inko. “I will leave them in your capable hands. Call me if you need anything.” He said with a bow to everyone in the room before departing.
Inko looked around at the remaining people at the table. "I assume that you all want to go?" She asked already knowing the answer. She watched everyone in the room and started to tap a button on her Chameleon Band. "DECA, I am broadcasting a signal directly to you. Can you teleport everyone to those coordinates?”
"One-moment Inko. Coordinates locked in. Awaiting your command."
“Thank you DECA,” Inko said before gesturing for everyone to come to her. “Everyone stay close together. I set the coordinates to the med bay. It will be a bit cramped when we arrive." After getting another acknowledgment from everyone she tapped her bracelet again. "Ready for teleportation to Pryamidas."
“Teleporting.”
Nezu arrived in his office to find 3 figures waiting for him. “Thank you, gentleman, for coming to see me.” He said moving to sit in his chair. In front of his desk stood Shouta, Zen-Aku, and the Phantom Ranger. “I assume you are up to speed Shouta?" Nezu asked looking at his vice-principal. With Inko's permission, he filled Shouta in on the important details about her past and had Inko summon the Phantom Ranger to UA. Nezu summoned Zen-Aku to his office.
"I have. I need a stiff drink after reading all of that." Shouta replied pinching the bridges of his nose. "I take it you have a plan that requires the three of us?"
"Indeed." Nezu folded his paws in front of him. "As it seems that the League of Villains has joined forces with Scorpina making them a dangerous threat to UA and the public at large. I would like the three of you to hunt them down." Nezu's eyes went cold. "They attacked my students. I take that very personally. Shouta, you know the underground world better than anyone. The Phantom Ranger has great knowledge of Ranger villains and will a helpful in your search." He turned to the Duke Org. "I want you to assist as well. They may be more Orgs in hiding at this time, but I am sure they are no threat to you. That and a little extra muscle never hurt." He looked at his newly formed group. "Start with the scum and work your way up. I have Underground Hero License for Phantom Ranger and Zen-Aku. I will dub your team the Wolf Pack.”
“Any rules of Engagement?” Zen-Aku asked cracking his knuckles. He was itching for a fight and this would give him something to do until his pup was ready to train.
"Arrest the scum, take-down any LOV supporters. Destroy any monsters that may be a threat to the school or the Rangers." Nezu said leaning back in his chair. "I have funds and supplies at a safe house already set up." He slid a card across the table. "Here is the address. I would like you to operate at least 3 nights a week. I have substitute teachers in place to help Vlad King in your absence.” He looked at them with a grin. “Any question?”
Pryamidas Medical Bay.
As the large group arrive in the Med bay of Pryamidas those not used to it got a bit nauseated. "It will pass in a moment Mitsuki," Inko said patting her friend on the back. "Welcome to the Med Bay."
"I'm on an alien ship," Reiko said running her fingers along the nearby wall. "This day just keeps getting better."
"It hasn't changed much," Andros said smiling as he watched his granddaughter walk excitedly around the room. "Still impressive though."
"I could spend weeks in here," Melissa said looking at the computer and instruments all around her. "This has to be the best medical unit on the planet."
I am in nerd heaven.” Midnight said hurrying around the room to look at all the incredible details.
“It is," Inko said with a bit of pride. "Given enough time, Tiforians can heal just about anything, but the issue is time.” She pointed to a large bed that looked slightly like a mini cat scanner. “Those surgical bays can repair and operation on a patient, but the patient has to be stable for the table to work.”
"She needs a bit of TLC," Mei said looking at the dust sitting on the computer. She brushed some of it off with her hand. "More than a little."
"I will find some time to get the old girl moved to Command Center and let you work on her Mei," Inko said looking around as the other seemed to be slowly moving around the bay.
"With supervision!" Momo added quickly. "Mei needs someone with her when she works on this."
“Seconded!” Ochako and Setsuna chimed in together.
“Thirded!” Pony, Toru, Mina, and Kyoka.
"Hmph," Mei said with a grumble. "I'll invite Melissa to help me then."
“I’ll be there in a heartbeat," Melissa replied excitedly.
"Holy shit," Mitsuki said looking at the room and back to Inko. "This is incredible."
Inko laughed slightly. “I’ll give you a tour one day.”
"I'll hold you to it," Mitsuki replied with a grin. "Where is my niece?”
Inko pointed to the door labeled Cryogenics and saw that Izuku and his girlfriends were standing near the door. Izuku was talking with his daughters. Inko was lost in thought when someone placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.
She turned to see Miruko with a concerned look on her face.
“Are you ok Mom?” Miruko asked.
Inko nodded a placed a motherly kiss on Miruko's head. "Just bad memories dear." She said making her way to Izuku. "Thank you." As she got closer to the door, Kaina was at her side. "I'm fine Kaina.”
"Just here for moral support," Kaina said looping their arms together.
Inko smiled and placed a quick kiss on Kaina's cheek. "Through this door. Izuku will you hit the button please."
"Sure." Izuku hit the button and the door opened automatically. He looked back to see Inko waving him forward. He made his way inside. Eri had requested that he carry her. Kyoka quickly took his free hand. Raphtalia was being carried by Setsuna. They walked down to the last tube in the row. It was slightly frosted over, but he could still see her. "Hi sis," Izuku said softly as he moved closer and wiped off to get a better look at her. "She looks a lot like Mom."
"The resemblance is uncanny." Mt. Lady agreed looking between Nana and Inko.
"Where did she get the height from?" Miruko asked comparing Inko and Nana as best she could.
Inko just shrugged. "I heard stores that my grandfather was tall. I guess it skipped a few generations."
Gran Torino and Toshinori moved to the other side of the tube.
"My God," Gran Torino said in awe as he place a hand on the tube. "It's really you old friend." He looked at the monitor as it tracked her vitals. "You're really alive." His voice broke at the end.
"Nana," Toshinori said just as softly. He knelt down beside the tube. "I thought your body was lost all those years ago. We buried an empty casket to honor you." Tears ran down his face and felt someone hug him from behind. He smiled and glanced back. “Thank you, Mitsuki."
Mitsuki gave him a wink and continued to comfort him.
Recovery was looking at all the medical data that was on the pod and then looked at Inko. "Can I look at more of her medical data?"
"Sure," Inko said moving to gel a nearby tablet. after keying in a few codes. "Here is everything and all procedures I have looking into over the past 30 years."
Recovery Girl and Inko started talking in depth about Nana's health and medical status.
Eri looked at the tube before gently tapping her Papa on the shoulder. "Grandma said she was your sister, right?" She asked tilting her head slightly.
"Yes, she is my older sister. Like Raphtalia is to you." Izuku said with a smile. "She would be your aunt."
"Oh! ok." Eri said nodding her head in understanding. She returned her attention to the tube.
Raphtalia looked at Setsuna. "Can we look a bit closer?" She asked quieter than normal.
“Sure,” Setsuna said moving closer to Izuku and Kyoka.
Raphtalia looked at her aunt her tail was swinging slow. "She looks likes she is sleeping." Raphtalia looked over at Inko. “Is she gonna wake up Grandma?”
Inko's face was one of sadness and pain. "I -I don't know sweetie," Inko replied honestly to her granddaughter. "I have been trying for a very long time.” Inko felt very tired both emotionally and physically. The day was starting to catch up with her. She was about to call it a night when she noticed that Eri's eyes were glowing. "Eri?"
"I can hear her," Eri said softly as she placed a hand on the tube. "I can hear her voice."
"Eri, honey?" Izuku asked looking to see that his daughter's eyes were glowing. "What's going on?"
Kyoko reached over and caressed her daughter's face. "Eri?"
"Eri is fine." A woman in white cloth from head to toe said softly as she appeared like a spirit near Eri. "I am The White Council member of the Magical Tribunal." She gave the small a bow. "I have arrived to balance the scales."
"I heard about your tribunal from Fire Heart," Inko said narrowing her eyes. "The one in Black made her cry." Eri's mothers tensed and narrowed their eyes. Soon the rest of the room did as well.
The White Council member nodded her head. “Yes, and I along with The Red Council member have decided to make amends to her.” She moved closer to Eri. “With my help, I will revive your daughter.”
Inko's mouth dropped in surprise, but she school her face back into a neutral expression. "What is the catch?" Inko asked cautiously.
“Powerful magic comes at a price.” The White Council member said solemnly. “I know that she has not used her quirk since she was rescued. If you accept my help to revive her then I will seal Eri's quirk for two fortnights."
"What do you mean by seal her quirk?' Ochako asked feeling her protective mother instincts surge to the front of her mind. "Will it harm her?"
“No to both of those questions.” The White Council member replied with a shake of her head. “She will not be able to use her quirk on the strike of twelve on the night of the second fortnight.”
"28 days," Momo said quickly. "You want to seal Eri's quirk for 28 days and you will revive Nana?" She watched as The White Council member nodded her head. "I waiting for the catch as well."
“No catch,” The White Council member said simply. “We owe her a debt and it needs to be settled.” She looked around the room. “My time grows short. I need an answer. soon"
"Eri, are you ok with being without your quirk for that long?" Izuku asked cautiously. He didn't want Eri to feel pressured into doing this. "This is your choice. I won't force you to do something that will make you upset or uncomfortable."
Eri looked at her Papa and then her Grandma. “You said a hero is doing something even when you are afraid.” She said slowly. “I can be brave.” She looked at Izuku with searching eyes. “When my quirk comes back, will you teach me how to use it”
Izuku smiled at the little unicorn. "I promise. And I will train your sister's quirk as well." He said beaming with fatherly pride. He placed a kiss at the base of Eri's horn. "I love you Eri."
"I love you too Papa," Eri replied before looking at the White Council member with a determined look on her face. "What do I need to do."
Many of the occupants in the room looked on with a smile at the small unicorn's bravery. Raphtalia gave her little sister a quick hug.
Reiko was off to the side having to cover her mouth to not freak out about magic and a specter standing nearby.
The White Council member held out her hand. “Give me your hand Eri.” She said kindly. She smiled on her white cloth as the girl took her hand. "Thank you." She snapped her fingers and the pod opened setting off several alarms immediately. The White Council member held her hand over Nana and the pod was engulfed in a blinding white light. Everyone had to shield their eyes from the light and watched the best they could. From what could see, the White Council member seemed to be reversing time. As Nana's tattered clothing slowly repaired itself. After almost a minute of silence and the intense white light, it vanished. Izuku and the others slowly got their vision back and were relieved to see that Eri was unharmed.
“It is done.” The White Council member said before patting Eri on the head. "The Scales are balanced. I must return." Without another word, she vanished like smoke in the wind.
The room went silent as they turned their attention to the opened cryotube.
Nana felt like she was at the end of a very long dream. Nana groaned as she felt cold and her muscle stiff. She slowly opened her eyes and could see a blur in front of her. “Ugh.” She groaned blinking her eyes to let things come into focus. Her mind was foggy and she tried to sit up. “W-Wh-ere am I-I” Nana slurred as she started hearing multiple voices and blurs moving around her.
“Nana, Honey, can you hear me?” a familiar voice asked concerned.
"Mom?" Nana asked blinking a few times and saw the outline of her mother's face come into view "What is going on?" She was confused about where she was or how she got here.
“Baby, you’re safe. You’re in Pryamidas.” Inko said gently. “Just breathe. You have been in Cryo for a while. You are feeling the effect. They will pass in a bit.”
“C-Cryo? Wait I was battle with uh,” Nana struggled to reply as she rubbed her eyes. She could hear people talking around her, but they blended together in background noise. As the fog started to clear she started to remember the end of her battle with AFO.
"Brave of you, but foolish none the less." All for One said with a maniacal laugh. As he held Nana by the throat. "I have to say, you have more spirit than you Master did, an eighth of an inch to the left with your last attack and I would not be the one standing.”
Nana grit her teeth as she looked at the monster of a man. "You won't be this smug forever." She spat at him trying to move her broken arm. She used her good arm to grab his wrist. “You will get what’s coming to you All for One.” She knew she had lost. She was trying to buy time for Gran to get Toshinori as far away as possible.
“Maybe, but I will kill your apprentice soon enough. Now go join your Master and the rest of your pathetic predecessors.” All for One said with a sneer.
Nana watched All for One drawback his fist and the world went dark.
“NO!” Nana screamed as she channeled One for All throughout her body sending arcs of pink lighting all her as she sat up ready to fight. Nana stopped when she saw her mother holding up her hands to calm her. She looked around and frowned. "Toshinori? Gran? Recovery Girl?" She asked looking around the room. "What's going on? How long have I been a popsicle?"
"Just take a minute to calm down and I will explain everything to you dear," Inko said taking a seat next to her daughter. "How are you feeling?"
"Cold and stiff, but no pain as far as I can tell," Nana said looking at her Mom. "I see a few familiar faces, but who are the rest of these people here?”
Before Inko could reply a tanuki girl looked at her with a big smile. "Hi, Aunt Nana! Eri helped patch you up!" She pointed to a little girl with white hair and a horn.
Eri gave Nana a shy wave before hiding behind a boy with green hair.
Nana looked confused "Wait Aunt?"
Inko patted her daughter on the shoulder. “Let Recovery Girl and I look you over and we can fill you in about everything.” She said quickly grabbing her medical equipment. After 30 years, Inko had her daughter back.

Chapter Text
Nana hated going to the doctor. Her mother had to drag her there kicking and screaming when she was a kid. When she was sick or needed a shot, Inko had to restrain her to keep Nana from running away. It got worse when she became a Pro heroine. She would just slap a bandage over any injury and call it done. That was until her mother found out and dragged her to the doctor by her ear. Inko would not hesitate to do that when Nana was in her hero costume.
Nana waited as they finished the last of the tests that gave her a clean bill of health. While this was going on, Inko introduced her to everyone in the room. She could tell something was going on with Toshinori and the woman introduced herself as her Aunt Mitsuki. She noted that her apprentice was not wearing a ring. She waved at the woman and glanced at the girl Melissa. After looking at all the other kids in the room she could tell that Melissa was Toshinori's successor. She wasn't positive, but something inside Nana told her that her hunch was right. She glanced over to see the tension between her old friends Sorahiko (Gran Torino) and Chiyo (Recovery Girl). After the last test was completed and they finished filling her in, a lot started to make some sense.
"So," Nana started as she stood up for the first time in 30 years and started to stretch out her stiff muscles. “I’ve been in cryo for three decades. While I was sleeping, Sorahiko left Chiyo at the alter to take my apprentice to the US and returned later for little Toshi to become the #1 Hero in all of Japan” She stated holding out a hand to keep track of things. “Mom got married and divorced, gave me a little brother who has several girlfriends and two adopted daughters. Izuku is a Power Ranger like Mom and SPD is now a thing." She looked over at her mom who nodded along with Nana recounting events. “That is your uncle Andros you told me about as a little girl and that is my cousin Reiko who happens to be Uncle Andros’s Granddaughter.” Nana took a breath before starting again. "I was revived not by medical science or advanced technology, but by a magical council member and my unicorn niece." She let out a deep sigh. "And lastly, my baby brother wormed his way into the hearts of 4 Pro heroines who treat him like their little brother as well and have been looking after him and you for the past year. Did I miss anything?"
"From the highlights no, but we can talk more about the detail stuff later," Inko said walking over to hug her taller daughter. "I'll fill you in on Kotaro later." She whispered. "I have missed you so much, Nana."
Nana nodded her head. "I missed you to mom," Nana replied pulling her mother close. She glanced over to her little brother who was fidgeting while holding one of his daughters. She released her mom from a hug and walked over and knelt down to hug Izuku. "Hi, little brother, I'm Nana."
"Hi, sis. I'm Izuku." He said quietly returning the hug. "I'd like to get to know you better if that would be alright."
"I'd love that," Nana said with a smile as she reached up to ruffle Izuku's long hair. "I have a lot of time to make up for." She felt someone tap her on the shoulder. Nana glanced to see it was Eri that was trying to get her attention. "Yes, hun?"
Eri reached out to Nana. "Can I get a hug?" Eri asked being brave and not hiding on her papa's shoulder.
Nana's smile brightened and scooped the little unicorn up from her brother's arms and hugged her tightly. "It would be my pleasure to give you a hug cutie." She looked over at Raphtalia to see she was pouting a bit. "You want in on a hug with your Aunt Nana?" She asked the tanuki.
"Yea!" Raphtalia said hurrying over to join in on the hug. "Hugs!"
Nana fell in love instantly with her nieces. She would burn the world to the ground if anyone laid a hand on them or her baby brother. Nana stood up still holding her nieces with ease. She looked at the rest of the room and was about to say something when her stomach let out a loud growl. Nana felt a bit embarrassed and laughed. "Any chance I get something to eat? I just remembered that I have not eaten in a few decades."
Momo looked at her watch. "It is getting late." She said looking around before her stomach started growling as well. "My apologizes."
Inko smiled as she had an idea. "I think we should return to my apartment and I can fix us all something to eat." She offered to everyone. "I have enough food to cook for all of us and that way we can relax and let Nana catch up with all of us." Inko was not going to pass up a chance to have a large family meal in her home in decades.
"I'm in," Mitsuki said quickly. "I am not passing up a chance to get to know my niece."
Toshinori nodded his head. "I am free as well." He said looking over at his niece. "Melissa?"
Melissa blinked and realized she had been staring at Nana. "Oh, I -uh am free as well." Thousands of questions were running through her head. Aliens, technology that was far above her wildest dreams, and someone who wielded OFA before her Uncle.
Inko looks over at her other daughters. "I would love it if you girls would join us as well." She asked giving them a begging look.
Miruko nodded her head. "I'm in.” She said looking over at Nana. "I like to get to know her and maybe get her to spar with me."
Nana shot the rabbit heroine a grin. "Tell me the time and place. I'm always up for a fight."
"Good," Miruko replied with a feral grin.
Ryukyu shook her head. "I am free as well," she said looking over at her mother. "I shall keep those two from tearing up the apartment." She finished with a smirk as Nana and Miruko shot her a dirty look.
"If Mom is cooking, then I am not going to miss it." Mt. Lady said placing a hand on her stomach. "Count me in."
Midnight nodded her head as well. "Ryu is busy with her team tonight. I'd love to show Nana the photo albums of our baby brother."
"Oh, I want to see those. Thank you, dear sister," Nana said sending Midnight a wink. Nana could tell she would get along just fine with her new sisters.
Izuku shot Midnight a look of betrayal. "Traitor." He grumbled and tried not to pout as his sisters started to laugh. He looked over at his girlfriends. "You girls able to join us?"
"Let me call my mom and see," Ochako said taking out her phone. Soon the rest of his girlfriends were doing the same thing and calling their families. Soon sad looks appear across all of their faces.
"My mother would like for me to return home for a family dinner," Momo said putting away her phone. "I'm sorry darling."
"My folks are having dinner with Momo's so I'm with her," Setsuna said just as sad.
Kyoka sighed as she put her away. "My dad has to head out of town for business and Mom wants me home to spend some time with her."
Mei shrugged. "Mom sent me a message that she is picking up dinner and wants to talk shop. Sorry, Zuzu."
Pony was pouting. "Auntie said I have to come home as well. My Mom will be calling."
Mina and Toru sighed together. "Same here, Our Moms have a family night planned. Sorry." Mina said with a shrug.
"Sorry," Toru whispered as her skin turn a light blue.
Eri and Raphtalia started to pout bout their Mama's having to head home, but Nana and Mt. Lady started playing them to get a smile out of them.
"I understand," Izuku said with a genuine smile. "Maybe another time. I guess we should head back to UA and that way you all can get home safely."
"Actually, as late as it is, it might be better for DECA to teleport us home," Mei said looking at the others. "Zuzu can ride back with his mom and sister to their apartment." Mei looked at the other girls. "That way he won't be worried about us getting home safely."
"Sounds reasonable," Setsuna said. "Knowing our boy, he would want to make sure all of us got home safely himself." She blew a kiss at Izuku. "Being the gentleman, he is."
Recovery Girl glared at Gran for a moment before letting out a huff. "I have paperwork to finish." She said before looking at Nana. "Stop by someday so we can catch up Nana.
Inko could see the tension starting to build between Gran Torino and Recovery Girl. "Uncle Andros, would you and Reiko like to join us?" She asked trying to break the tension.
Andros smiled at her. "My wife is out of town at the moment for a board meeting. I would love to have dinner with you." He looked over at his granddaughter. "I am sure that Reiko would like to ask a few questions and make get to know Izuku a bit better."
"I would like that," Reiko said with a slight bow. "Thank you for the invitation."
Inko looked around and smiled. "Let's get back to UA then." She tapped at her bracelet. "DECA can you teleport up back please?" Inko wrapped an arm around Nana.
"Teleporting now."
For the first time in decades, the Cryogenics room fell silent.
After they arrived back at UA without issue. Recovery Girl said her goodbyes and left for her office. Gran Torino tried to follow her but barely dodged a blow from her cane.
"I'd stay away from her for a while Sorahiko," Nana suggested to her old friend. "You may live longer." Nana wanted to slap him for leaving Chiyo at the altar but decided to let those two work it out.
Gran Torino grumbled as he went over to lean against a nearby wall.
Each girl took their turn getting a goodbye kiss from Izuku. They promised to text him when they got home. He watched as they were teleported home and turned to see the smirking face on Nana. "Yes?" He asked hesitantly.
"Oh, little brother," Nana said towering over him as she wrapped an arm around his shoulder. "We have so much to catch up on Casanova. I want to know more about your lovely ladies." She glanced over at her other sisters. "I am sure there are some good stories."
"Oh, no," Izuku muttered.
"Oh, yes," Nana replied leading him towards her siblings. "This is going to be fun." As she reached Miruko, Ryukyu, Mt. Lady, and Midnight she gave them a wink. "I just watched our little brother with his ladies. Do you have any juicy stories to share?"
Midnight caught on immediately. "Oh, I'm sure we can fill you in over dinner."
"I have a few stories as well," Ryukyu said with a matching grin. "We need some sisterly bonding."
"I'll grab the booze," Miruko said with a laugh.
Mt. Lady pulled out her phone. "I have a few pictures to show you."
Izuku decided he was going to make an escape. "And with that, I am going to go talk to our cousin." He made a quick escape and headed straight for Reiko.
Raphtalia and Eri made their way over to their Aunts for hugs.
Nana suddenly had a prank come to mind. "Hey, can one of your girls pick something up for me at the store?"
Mt. Lady nodded. “What do you need?”
Nana smirked as she made her request.
Izuku waved to Reiko as he got closer. "How are you handling all of this?" Izuku asked as she looked up from her phone. "Everything all right?"
"I was trying to get a hold of Shoto, but he has not responded back yet.' Reiko said putting away her phone. "I have many questions for my grandfather and your Mother." She gave Izuku her full attention "I am taking all of this one moment at a time."
"I know the feeling," Izuku said with a slight smile. “I didn’t know you and Shoto were friends.”
Reiko gave a slight shrug. “We got to know each other after the USJ attack. We talked afterwards and became friends and hang out together at lunch.”
"Oh, that's cool," Izuku replied with a smile. “Maybe I can join you someday to talk with him as well.”
"I would like that cousin," Reiko said giving a faint smile. “I would like to ask how you got so many girls from both Hero course classes and the Support class to fall for you.”
"I'd like to know as well," Melissa said walking over a bit embarrassed. "I noticed that they were always around you, but I can't believe that Kiri and I didn't pick up that you were dating all 8 of them."
Izuku remembered something Mina said about Kiri and Melissa. “Mina said something about seeing you and Kiri holding hands.” He said as Melissa blushed slightly. “I guess she was right.”
Melissa cleared her throat. "That's right," Melissa said with a smile. "Kiri and I started dating recently."
“He seems like a nice guy. I am happy for you.” Izuku replied honestly.
Reiko glanced at Melissa. "Seem like my dear cousin has been avoiding our questions."
Melissa nodded her head. “It seems so. How bout it?” She quirked an eyebrow at him.
Izuku nodded his head. “Alright, can it wait until we get back to the apartment? Let me check with them to make sure they are ok with it.” He took out his phone.
Private Chat
Green Bunny (Izuku): Reiko and Melissa want to know how I am dating all of you. Also, Mina, you were right. Kiri and Melissa are dating.
Alien Queen (Mina): I knew it! I was right! I can't wait to tease Kiri!

Izuku put away his phone and looked at Reiko and Melissa. “They are good with it.” He said giving them a thumbs up. "I can tell back at the apartment."
“That’s good to hear.” A voice said from behind him.
Izuku turned around to see Nana stand behind him with both of his daughters on each hip. “H-Hey sis." He said knowing that grin on her face too well. "How long have you been standing there?"
"Long enough to see you message your girls and promise to tell your friend and cousin," Nana said moving a step closer. "I can wait to hear about it in detail as well." She watched her little brother sweat a little and began laughing. "Come on, Mom is ready to head back to the house.”
"Oh, Ok," Izuku replied looking at his cousin and friend. "See you both in a bit." He said before Raphtalia reach out for Izuku to carry her. He heard their goodbyes and fell in step beside Nana as they met their mother waiting by the door. Izuku could see the smile on his mother's face. It was bright and full of life. His mother's eyes seemed to sparkle as she looked at him and his sister. Izuku looked around to see that his sisters were heading to the locker room to change. "Everything ok mom?" He asked.
Inko placed a kiss atop Izuku's head. "I'm better than ok," She said brightly. Inko leaned against Kaina looking at her children and her granddaughters. "I have my family back together and an amazing girlfriend." Inko gestured to the parking lot. "Come on, I am going to make something special for dinner tonight."
“Katsudon?” Izuku and Nana asked at the same time. They looked at each other in surprise. “Wait, that’s your favorite? Mine too!” Then both started smiling. “Mom makes the best!”
Kaina started laughing. "Well, I think they will get along just fine.” She said wrapping her arm around Inko's shoulder.
"It warms my heart," Inko replied looking at her children. "Are you sure you alright with everything I told you today? About me not being from around here?"
“Inko, I love you," Kaina said placing a quick kiss on her girlfriend's cheek. "I am not going anywhere. I waited years to be with you and I'm staying right beside you, my Queen."
"I love you too, Kaina," Inko replied laying her head on Kaina's shoulder. "Thank you."
"Anytime," Kaina replied. "Come on, let's get home and enjoy some amazing food."
Inko looked at her and planted a quick kiss on Kaina's lips. "I like that. Home." Inko said keeping an eye on Izuku and Nana in her peripheral vision. “I think I’m are going to need a bigger place. If you want we can find a new place to call home and you can move in with me.” Inko felt her cheeks warm up.
"I'd love to move in with you," Kaina said with a big smile. "How about we start looking after the kids are in bed." He leaned over and whispered. "With the soundproofing. We can continue from the other day."
"Sounds good to me dear," Inko replied licking her lips. "I am looking forward to it."
The car ride back to the apartment was interesting for Nana, as she looked at all the changes in the area since she went into Cryo. The mood in the car was light and joyful. Nana told Izuku stories about her days as The Flight Heroine: Wild Storm. She was popular amongst the other Heroes but flew under the radar in terms of the rankings.
“You didn’t participate in the rankings?” Izuku asked his sister after she finished a story about her first rescue.
Nana shrugged. “I never really stuck around to get the credit.” She replied with a cocky smirk. “No one could keep up with the Wild Storm.”
Inko looked in the rear-view mirror with a smile. “It did not help that your sister had a penance for tossing reporters that bothered her in nearby bodies of water." She said as Nana's face turned red with embarrassment.
“MOM!” Nana whined. “That was one time!” Nana had just saved a terrified girl from a burning building and a reporter shoved a microphone in the little girl's face. Nana told him to stop but didn't. She picked him up and tossed him in a nearby river. The reporter dragged Nana through the mud for weeks afterwards in retaliation.
“Really?” Izuku asked trying not to smile. “I want to hear more about that Mom.”
Nana narrowed her eyes at her brother. "You are playing a very dangerous game, little brother," Nana warned him. "Turnabout is fair play."
“Aunt Nana,” Raphtalia whined. “I want to hear more stories!” Raphtalia crossed her arms and started to pout.
“Yeah,” Eri joined in. “More stories!”
Nana turned her attention back to her nieces. "Alright, alright." She said holding up her hands in mock surrender at the adorable girls. "I have a few more I can tell you."
They arrived back at the apartment and Nana stopped at the threshold and took a deep breath. It was not the home she grew up in but it felt and smelt like home to her. She walked inside and looked over at the wall of pictures that covered the wall. She looked at the pictures on the wall and stared
Izuku went and looked over his daughter's homework and after he gave his approval turned on the TV for them as a reward. He made sure Eri and Raphtalia were comfortable on the couch before he headed to the kitchen. "Need any help mom?" He asked as watched his mother start getting all the prep work done.
“Kaina has offered to help me,” Inko said shooing him off. “Go spend time with your sister and daughters.” She watched her son hesitate for a minute. “I have this under control.” She started to levitate various ingredients towards her.
He nodded and went over to see Nana was watching his daughters with a melancholy look on her face. He walked over and carefully tapped her on the shoulder. "You ok, sis?" He asked giving her a one-armed hug.
Nana returned the hug. “Just remembering my past.” She said as a ghostly image of her son appeared on the couch beside her nieces. “Cherish these days with them. They grow up so fast.”
“I try,” Izuku said as his daughters laughed at the cartoon. “I just want them to be happy. They both deserve it.”
Nana tilted her head to the corner. “I know Mom glided over a few things.” She said quietly. “Care to fill me in on my nieces?”
Izuku looked over one at his daughters, "After they have gone to bed. I don't want to take a chance of Raphtalia overhearing us." He replied just as quietly. "I think we will have a lot to talk about after the girls are in bed."
"Agreed," Nana said looking at her brother. "For now, let's go join the kids on the couch."
Izuku nodded and gestured for her to go first. “Age before beauty.”
"Brat." Nana retorted with no real heat. She put Izuku into a headlock and dragged him over to the couch for family time.
A short time later Mitsuki arrived holding Toshinori's hand as Melissa, and Sorahiko walked in behind them carrying a few things. Mitsuki made a straight shot for Eri and Raphtalia. “Hi girls,” She said with a bright smile. “I have something for you both.” She held out a few pieces of candy.
“Candy!’ The girl exclaimed together and hurried over to hug Mitsuki. “Thank you!”
“Must you?” Inko called out from the kitchen. “You better not spoil their dinner!”
Mitsuki chuckled. "It's just one piece." She replied giving both girls a wink as she handed them each a second piece.
“So, are you dating my Aunt,” Izuku said moving to stand beside his teacher.
Toshinori nodded his head slowly. “Yes, we just started dating today.” He replied glancing over at Inko. “She already gave me the shovel talk.”
“I am not surprised," Izuku said with a nodded his head. "Mom thinks of her like a sister." He was glad they found a way to stay close. "Well, congratulations. I’m going to talk to Melissa.”
"Have fun," Toshinori said watching as Mitsuki's smile grew iridescent while playing with Eri. He turned to see Nana floating around the couch with Raphtalia in her arms.
Sorahiko smiled at Toshinori. "I have to say you have bad for that woman." He said with a slight snigger. "Trust me, I know head over hills in love when I see it." He reminisced about the old days of seeing Chiyo after their day was done and holding her in his arms. They planned their lives out and he threw it away. "Do be an idiot like my Toshi boy. Cherish her." He made his way to the kitchen to sit down.
Toshinori just watched his girlfriend smile as she played with the children. “I plan on it.” He murmured to himself.
“So, you said you have some questions for me?” Izuku asked as Melissa took out a notebook and pen from her bag.
"I'll wait until Reiko arrives to ask about your girlfriends," Melissa teased as she turned to a page full of questions. "Can we talk about some of the Ranger tech please?"
Sure,” Izuku replied with a nod of his head. “What do you want to know?”
“Everything!” Melissa said as her eyes sparkled with excitement.
Izuku nodded his head. "Oh, I meant to send something really quick. One sec" He pulled out his phone and sent a Meme to the Spartans of Fun Chat. It was a group he met a while back and played online with when everyone was available. After he started dating his girls, they realized that Momo, Ochako, and Kyoka had been playing together long before they met at UA. They had laughed it off and wondered who everyone else was. He dropped in a funny meme and closed his phone. He was about to say something when Melissa's phone chimed and she looked at it.
“Oh, Green-Paladin. I love your memes.” She said aloud before replying to his message. She looked at the confused look on Izuku’s face as his phone chimed a moment later. “Izuku?”
Izuku looked to see who replied. “Melissa, are you Athena Wrath?” he asked showing her his screen.
“Yes. Wait, Your Green-Paladin?" Melissa asked pointing in shock. "Do you know anyone else from our group?"
Well, Momo is Goddess_of_Creation. Ochako is GravityGirl. And, Kyoka is Soundwave." Izuku replied still surprised that another person from his online game that went to UA and was friends with them in real life. “I wonder who the last three are?”
Melissa and Izuku sat in silence for a moment. "Let's asked them," Melissa suggested opening up her app. "It will be the easiest."
"Let's ask and then we can get to your questions," Izuku replied with a nod.

Athena Wrath: Yeah, Talk to you all later. Call you before I go to bed Kiri.”
Red Rioter: Later! Will do babe!
Izuku and Melissa started to laugh a bit as they put their phones away.
“Now what did you want to ask me about Ranger stuff?” Izuku asked as he watched Melissa pick up her pen and paper. Melissa just smiled as she asked the first question.
Andros and Reiko arrived next. Andros headed to talk with Inko in the kitchen and Reiko went over to join her cousin. She walked over to see that Izuku and Melissa were in deep discussion about something. “Have I missed anything exciting?” She asked as they turned to greet her.
“I’m asking Izuku questions about being a Ranger,” Melissa said writing something down on the notebook page. “Do you have any you want to ask?”
Reiko nodded her head. “I have a few questions about my Ranger form, but I want to ask about his girlfriends.” She replied getting a pen a paper out of her backpack.
"Ask your questions," Izuku said with a bow of his head. “I did promise to answer those questions when I got home.”
“How did you end up dating them?” Melissa asked excitedly.
Reiko moved a bit closer as well. “I would like to hear this as well.”
Nana walked over and smiled at her brother. “I want to hear this as well.” She added with Raphtalia on her hip.
“I want to hear it as well Izuku.” Mitsuki chimed in with Eri in her arms.
Izuku nodded his head. "Well, it all started back when I was cleaning the Takoba Beach before the Entrance Exams.”
Rumi, Nemuri, Ryuko, and Yu were the last to arrive with dessert and drinks. Rumi had just closed the door when Nana hurried over with Raphtalia on her hip.
“Did you get it?” Nana asked excitedly.
Rumi nodded her head. “Last one at the store.” She replied holding the bag up for Nana to inspect it.
"I'll pay you back," Nana said taking the bag with her free hand. "Just name it."
"This Saturday you and me are going to fight," Rumi said with her usual feral grin. "Make it challenging and we're even."
"You got it little bunny," Nana said big grin.
Rumi’s eye twitched. “You’re gonna pay for that.” She growled at her older sister.
Ryuko decided to intervene. "Let's not damage our mother's apartment.” She said quietly. "What is Izuku up to?"
Nana pointed towards Izuku. "Telling us how he met his girlfriends. I need to get back."
Nemuri and Yu started to head in that direction as well.
"You both know how he met them," Ryuko said with a raised eyebrow.
"You know me, I am a sucker for a love story," Nemuri said unashamedly.
Yu nodded her head. “Same.”
Rumi rolled her eyes before heading for the kitchen with Ryuko right beside her.
Inko looked around at all the joy and happiness that radiated in the apartment. She had a moment like this not too long ago when Izuku's girlfriends were over. She had her Uncle and her daughter back now. Her family was slowly growing. After all these years both of her children were with her. It made all of those lonely years alone worth it. She felt tears run down her face.
“Babe, are you alright?" Kaina asked looking at her girlfriend with a concerned look on her face. She stopped what she was doing to hold Inko close to her.
"I'm good. Inko said quietly wiping away her tears. "Just happy tears are all." She kissed Kaina gently on the lips. “Let’s get this finished up.”
"Right behind you babe," Kaina replied.
Izuku has just finished telling his story about how his girlfriends when Inko called out to them.
“Dinner is ready. Everyone come and have seat.” Inko called out to everyone as she placed the last dish on the table. As everyone started to sit down at the table they all couldn't help but smell the delicious food in front of them. "I just want to say that I'm glad to have a house full of family and friends. I have all of my children together with my beautiful granddaughters." She turned to face her uncle. The family that I thought was lost and a new member that I got to meet." Inko bowed her head towards Reiko. "And last but not least good friends and long overdue reunions."
“Here, here!” Mitsuki called out with a smile as she raised a glass to Inko. "I hope there are more get-togethers like this planned in the future."
Inko nodded her head before looking around the table at her children. "It seems Kaina and I will need to look for a bigger house." She wrapped an arm around her girlfriend's waist.
“I can help Mom,” Izuku said pointing to his room. “Let me get my ledger to show you how much you is in the account.”
Inko shook her head. "That is for you, your daughters, and your future wives." She said in a stern tone. "I have money set aside for a house." She took a seat and set the napkin in her lap. "I know how to manage money."
Nana smiled from her spot at the table. “I tried the something when I got my first big check as a Pro. She turned it down flat."
“Exactly," Inko said looking at her son. "Izuku, I have been around for a long time and worked countless jobs. I have also invested it very carefully over the years. Trust me I can afford something very nice and large enough for everyone.”
"What kind of jobs? Yu asked after taking a bite of the food in front of her. "I knew you have been a nurse since we met."
Inko took a few bites of her katsudon. "Well I've been a nurse several times, A writer, a professional athlete, an Entertainer, Nanny twice, a private teacher, and back to a nurse a few times." She listed them off as best she could. "I never stayed in one place or one identity for very long until Nana was born.”
"What book did you write?" Ryuko asked out of curiosity. She loved books and collected the rare ones when she could find them. “Maybe I have read it before.”
"The Lonely Dragon Chronicles," Inko said with a slight smile. She remembered the story her father would tell her as a child, it was her favorite and she memorized the story by heart. One day she decided to write it down and left it behind at a coffee shop. A publisher found it and loved the idea and waited for her to return for it. The published offered her a good amount of money to write the first book. Soon she turned it into a successful 6 book series.
Ryuko gasped and dropped her chopsticks. “You’re Inoka Trifora?” She asked excitedly. They had been her favorite book growing up. They had been written almost 40 years ago, but the series was still popular to this day. “I loved those books. I have the entire series. First edition and in mint condition.” Those books were one of the most treasured pieces in her hoard.
“I love those books!” Melissa said excitedly.
Reiko nodded her head quickly. “I adore them as well. I would love to ask you questions sometime.”
"I'd love that dear," Inko told Reiko and gave her a wink. “We’ll find some time soon.”
"Bring them by sometime and I'll autograph them." Inko offered Ryuko with a bright smile. "I read them to Izuku when he was younger, but I only have paperback copies of them here.” She retrieved a familiar orb from her pocket and projected her various alias for them to look at. “Here, take a look.”
Everyone at the table looked at the different identities. A few stood out to different people in the room.
"Wait a minute," Rumi called out pointing to an identity she recognized. "You were Kino Kane? You were the 3 times Woman's MMA champion." She turned to look at her adopted mother. "I used your training videos to help get me in shape for UA. You were my hero."
“Ah, that was shortly after I put Nana into the Cryotube. I had a lot of anger and pain to work out.” Inko started at the image of her fighting days. “It was very cathartic. I was sad to let it go, but I was starting to gain unwanted attention and had to disappear. That was when I had to become Inoka Trifora.”
"I so want to spar with you," Rumi said excitedly. "You and Nana have to come down to the office. I will love to fight with both of you."
Inko nodded her head. "I'd love to dear. Well, find a day on the calendar to do that."
“Score!” Rumi shouted.
Yu looked at the identities. “I think you babysat me a few times.” She said pointing to an image of the younger Inko Kogane.
Inko nodded her head. "I did." Inko got up and went to her room for a few minutes and came back with a small book in her hand. "That was back before I was married and I worked part-time as a babysitter while going to nursing school.
Mitsuki snorted. “I am sure you were the top student.”
Inko shook her head. “Middle of the class. I was not trying to draw attention to myself.” She returned her attention to Yu. “Anyway, I watched you two days a week for almost a year. Your mother didn’t like my advice and fired me.” She placed the small book in front of Yu. “I took a bunch of pictures of our time together. I bumped into you a few years later, but you didn’t recognize me.”
Yu looked at a few of those pages before getting up and hugging Inko tightly. "I thought these trips you took me were just dreams." She gave Inko a big smile. "Thank you."
She release Yu from the hug and looked over to see an old alias and froze. "Oh, no," Inko said trying to recall the orb back to her hand to turn it off, but Nemuri let out a squeal of excitement. "Damn," Inko muttered under her breath.
"Inko?" Kaina asked looking concerned at watching her girlfriend's reaction to an old alias. "What’s going on?"
"You'll see." Inko moaned as she hide her face in her hands.
Nemuri looked like Christmas came early as she eyes were sparkling with excitement. "OMG, you were Kinoka Trino AKA Mistress Gold!” She exclaimed before pointing at her nieces. “Cover their ears.” After Eri and Raphtalia’s ears were covered Nemuri continued. “She was a legendary Dominatrix 70 years ago. She came out of nowhere and rocked the S&M industry and her videos are still popular today.”
Kaina grinned at Inko. "I see. That explains a few of your moves in the bedroom." She teased and sent Inko a wink.
“Please stop,” Izuku begged putting her chopsticks down and covered his face with his hand.
Nana nodded her head as well. "I never needed to know this about my own mother." She looked over at Nana. “When was all of this?”
Inko's face was slowly turning red with embarrassment. "About 3 years before you were born." She looked at the rest of the table. "Hey, I not a Nun or a saint. I am a woman and I had needs."
Kaina patted Inko on the back. "I'm not judging you, babe." She said leaning over to whisper in Inko's ear. "You are so showing me some of those moves later tonight."
"Count on it," Inko murmured back and shot Rumi a warning look. "Moving on." She summoned the orb back to her hand. "So, I have been saving moves for over a century and also have gold and jewels that my parents hid on Pryamidas as well. I have more than enough money to pay for our new house.”
Mitsuki shook her head. "I am sure that you have a lot of interesting stories to share with us." She said looking at her old friend. Mitsuki had a love of history and she was dying to hear about things Inko lived through.
Inko smirked. "Enough to fill an entire book or three." She closed her eyes and thought back from the day she arrived to this moment. "Maybe a girl's night I can tell you about them."
"Sounds good to me," Mitsuki replied excitedly.
The table fell into comfortable conversation as dinner went on. As everyone started to finish up Inko looked at the table. "There is something that needs to be discussed. This does not leave the apartment." After getting nods from everyone in the room. "Nana, how much of One for All do you have left?
Nana blinked for a moment. “I thought I used it all up battling All for One.” She said closing her eyes and channeling her power like normal and pink lightning started to course over her body. Nana opened her eyes and looked at her hands. "I-I think I back to about 40%. That was what I had left before my battle with AFO, that was all I had left after I gave Toshinori my quirk."
“Gave him your quirk?” Mitsuki asked looking at her boyfriend. “Toshi?”
Toshinori let out a sigh. “I was wanting to ease you into this after telling you I was All Might.” He said softly. “I was born like Izuku. I was a Quirkless kid when Nana found me and took me as her student.”
Nana beamed with pride. “Yeah took him from a scrawny kid to the great man you see before you.” She said winking at her student before looking over at Mitsuki. “I think we should get coffee together someday. I have a ton of great stories about his early days.”
"I'd love that," Mitsuki replied with a mischievous grin. She glanced over to see Toshinori go a bit pale. "Relax, how bad can they be?"
Toshinori cleared his throat. "I can use OFA for 4 hours a day. My surgeries helped me, but it will eventually fade." He beamed with pride as he gestured to Melissa. "She is my successor."
“I figured.” Nana offered looking over at the tall blonde girl. “Well kiddo, if you don’t mind I’d like to train with you.”
“Sounds good to me!” Melissa replied excitedly. “I trained with Gran for my entrance exam. Uncle Toshi helped when he was available.”
"She is a hard worker," Sorahiko said setting her drink on the table. "She reminded me a lot of you, Nana.”
"We'll see about that," Nana said cracking her knuckles. "I have some time to kill. I'm sure my license is no longer valid after being dead for three decades. No money or place to live."
"We'll get you sorted dear," Inko said with a smile. "Just take this one day at a time."
Andros nodded his head. "I'll help any way I can. You're family."
Nana nodded her head. “I will Mom and thanks, Uncle Andros." She looked over at the counter and got up. "I'll get the dessert ready." She went over to the counter to get a knife and a few plates. She had been waiting for this prank all night and set the desserts on the plates. She came back and started to place cherry pies with whip cream in front of everyone. She watched Toshinori freeze.
Toshinori started to sweat as a memory surged to the front of his mind of how he got OFA.
"Master, what are we doing here?" Toshinori asked as he sat down next to Nana on the bench. He had been a bit surprised when Master had ended his training early for the day and grabbed a picnic basket near her feet. Nana told him to follow her. They went to a shady spot in the park and she set out the food.
"You have been working hard Toshi and I wanted to do something nice for you," Nana said with an innocent smile. "After lunch, I will be giving you my quirk so eat up. You will need the energy."
"Yes, Master!" Toshinori said excitedly as he dug into his lunch with gusto. After finishing his sandwich, he watched as Nana handed him a plate with a slice of cherry pie and a fork. "Sweet! Cherry is my favorite."
Nana had a mischievous smirk on her face as she watched him eat the pie. “Is it good Toshi?”
"Yeah, it's amazing," Toshinori said oblivious to Nana's smile.
Nana waited for him to finish. "I am glad you like it." She said placing a hand on his shoulder. "I put my hair in that pie so I could pass my One for All to you. Congratulations kid you just ate my hair pie and inherited my Quirk."
Toshinori started choking and turning a bright red. Nana started laughing so hard she nearly busted a gut.
“You alright Toshi?” Nana asked cheekily as she sat back down at the table. She knew this was going to be hilarious. "I thought you liked cherry pie.”
"I-I do," Toshinori said taking a bit quickly to keep from saying anything. He glanced over at Sorahiko snorting into his hand.
“Melissa,” Nana said with a smirk. “How did Toshi give you OFA?” She had to stop herself from laughing as she watched her old student tense up.
“Ugh,” Melissa grimaced as she recalled the memory. “He plucked a hair from his head and handed it to me. I nearly gagged as I swallowed it.” She shuddered as she remembered that sick feeling.
"That is disgusting," Reiko said covering her face and looking a little green.
Izuku shuddered as well. "Better you than me Melissa," Izuku said glad he had gotten the Master Morpher. "I'll stick with my Morpher."
"Bragger." Melissa shot back with a smile.
Nana took a bit of her cherry pie and held her fork in her mouth for a moment. “Toshi here got OFA with a bite of hair pie." She said nonchalantly as she watched Toshinori start choking.
Several people at the table started choking at her comment.
Eri and Raphtalia just looked confused at one another and kept eating their dessert.
Nemuri and Rumi busted out laughing.
Melissa looked green and pushed her dessert away.
Reiko follows suit and sets her fork down.
Ryuko and Yu groan and moved over hold their nieces close.
Izuku chokes as well and covers his face with his hand.
Sorahiko falls out of his chair laughing while clutching his sides.
Andros winced and looked away.
Mitsuki looked over at her boyfriend. "Really now?" She gave him a stern look.
Toshinori was sweating. “It wasn’t like that! I swear?” He said quickly trying to explain it.
Inko narrowed her eyes and stood up from her chair and walked over to grab her daughter by the ear. “Nana Shimura!” Inko scolded her in her Mom voice. “I told you not to do that prank in the first place. Tell the whole story.”
Nana was wincing in pain. "Ow, ow, ow, Mom!" Nana said quickly. "I'm sorry! I put my hair in a piece of cherry pie and tricked him into eating it! That way I can say he ate my hair pie!" She tried to escape her Moms death grip on her ear.
Inko groaned. "I apologize for my daughter's prank everyone." She sent a disapproving look at Nana. "There is a time and place for your pranks dear." Inko held onto her daughter's ear as she narrowed her eyes "Anything else?"
Toshinori was internally panicking. “It’s fine Inko-.” He stared but Nana spilled her guts before he could stop her.
“I pop his cherry when he turned 18! It was a one-time thing! I told him it was his birthday gift!" Nana cried as the pressure on her ear was intense. She should have known better than to play her prank with her Mom around. "Please, for the love of God, let go, Mom!"
Inko froze for a moment before her gaze focused on Toshinori. "You slept with my daughter!” She asked incredulously.
Izuku stared at his teacher. “You slept with my Sister!”
Sorahiko was still laughing his ass off on the floor clutching his stomach.
“Oh god, Uncle Toshi.” Melissa groaned.
Reiko winced and looked away from her teacher with a blush on her face.
Nemuri looked at Rumi. “Should we do something? He did sleep with our sister?” She asked her bunny companion.
"I'm down," Rumi replied shooting Toshinori a dirty look.
Ryuko shook her head. “I think Mother has it under control.”
Agreed." Yu said making a mental note not to make her Mom angry at her. She started to rub her ear with sympathy pains.
Mitsuki looked at Toshinori. "We'll talk about this later.” She said with a quirked eyebrow. "You owe me big time."
"Anything you want," Toshinori said quickly. "How can I make it up to you?"
Mitsuki thought for a moment before whispering something in his ear.
“Done," Toshinori said with a grin before glancing over to see Inko was still glaring daggers at him and withered slightly.
Inko took a deep breath. “We’ll discuss this later.” She said releasing her grip on her daughter's ear and returning to her seat. The was an awkward silence until Izuku cleared his throat.
"I am going to sit over there and talk with Reiko and Melissa," Izuku asked looking at the pair. “You two have more questions, right?”
“Yes," Melissa said getting up from the table. "I have a lot of questions."
"That would be wonderful," Reiko replied hurrying to stand up as well. "I have a few more to ask as well."
Eri and Raphtalia scarfed the last of their desserts before jumping down "Wait for us, Papa!" Raphtalia called out.
"Wait for us, Papa!" Eri repeated as she scrambled after her sister.
Izuku got comfortable on the couch as his daughters scrambled to sit next to him. He was about to say something when Eri tapped him on the shoulder. "Yes, Eri?" He asked giving Eri his full attention.
"Can I call her Aunt Reiko?" Eri asked tilting her head to the side and pointing at the ghostly girl. "Grandma said she was family."
Reiko let a smile appear on her face and nodded her head. "I am fine with that title Eri." She said holding out her arms. "May I hug you?"
Eri smiled brightly as she nodded her head. "Ok Aunt Reiko!" Eri jumped down and rushed to hug her aunt.
"My pleasure dear," Reiko said hugging the unicorn tightly.
Raphtalia pointed over at Melissa. "Is she our Aunt too?"
Izuku felt a bit uncomfortable answering that. "No, she is just a friend and classmate-."
"You can call me that," Melissa said quickly moving over to hug the tanuki. She had a soft spot for the adorable girls.
"Well now that this is taken care of," Izuku said shaking his head at his daughter's ability to charm everyone so easily. "You had Ranger questions?"
"Yes/Yes." Reiko and Melissa replied together.
As the night started to wind down everyone started to call it a night.
Sorahiko left first complaining about getting too old. He hugged Nana and told her to call him to catch up.
Mitsuki and Toshinori called it a night next and Melissa got a ride back to her place. Mitsuki and Melissa made sure to give Eri and Raphtalia a hug goodbye before leaving. Toshinori waved at Nana and was cautiously keeping an eye on Inko.
Andros left after giving everyone a big hug and promised to visit again. Reiko hugged the chibi's and gave Izuku a quick hug before trying to get a hold of Shoto.
After his sisters helped clean up the dishes, one by one they headed home for the night. Yu had to teach at UA and wanted to get some rest and talk with Kugo before bed. Nemuri had to work the next day and wanted to get back to Ryu. Rumi and Ryuko had to be back on patrol the next morning. After all the good-byes were said, Inko and Izuku got the girls bathed and wound down for bed. Nana watched and felt a wave of nostalgia for her own son. She got comfortable on the couch and waited for her mother to return.
A short time later Inko returned with a large manila folder in hand and gestured for Izuku to sit down on the couch as well. "As promised. Everything I have on Kotaro Shimura after you were frozen." Inko looked at Izuku with a tired expression on her face. "Let me get to the end before you interrupt me please."
"Ok, Mom," Izuku replied getting comfortable on the couch.
Nana let out a shaky breath before taking the file from her mother's hand. "Tell me everything. Please," she said in a hoarse voice.
Inko told them everything. From the day she was forced to put Nana into Cryostasis to losing custody of her grandson Kotaro. Inko showed her an unsolved murder file from 17 years ago. The entire Shimura family was listed as murdered. After Kotaro and his wife missed work and both children were reported absent from school, a patrol car was sent to the residence and it was found completely destroyed. After it was called in multiple units responded and no bodies were found. what blood they found was too contaminated to test. It was later listed in the official Police Report that the entire Shimura family was killed that night by an unknown assailant and an unknown quirk. Inko investigated afterward and came up empty. Inko held onto Kaina tightly as she relived another traumatic day. Kaina had been listening and making sure to comfort Inko when she started to struggle to tell the story.
Nana broke down and sobbed at the loss of her son and his family. She remembered kissing him goodbye the morning AFO came for her. She cradled the picture of her son and his family in her hands. She accepted the tight embrace from her mother and baby brother. "They're gone." She murmured between sobs. They stayed like that for a long time. Kaina hesitated for a moment before Inko pulled her into the family hug.
"Baby," Inko whispered as she cried beside her daughter. "This is all my fault. I should have watched over him closer. I failed you." Inko closed her eyes unable to look at her daughter. She considered this her second greatest failure. "Please, forgive me."
Nana placed a gentle hand on her mother's face. "Mom, you can't be everywhere at once," Nana said softly as she wiped her eyes. "You loved Kotaro just as much as I did. You helped me raise him while I was being a hero. You were also helping your friends fight Scorpina in the shadows."
"Y-You don't hate me?" Inko asked softly.
Nana hugged her mother closer. "Never. You're my Mom." She replied grabbing a Kleenex and handed it to Inko. "Did you have headstones placed for them?"
"Yes," Inko replied nodding her head. "I paid for them to be next to each other. I can take you there soon."
Nana hugged Inko again. "I'd like that." She looked over at her brother and could see he was upset. She ruffled his hair to get his attention. "You ok little bro?"
Izuku nodded his head. "Just sad I never got to meet Kotaro and his family." He said with a sad smile. "I could have had someone to play with when I was younger."
"Me too," Nana said she hugged her family close and closed her eyes. They sat in silence mourning together until Izuku's phone chimed a few times. "I think we should call it a night. I think your girlfriends are wanting to talk to you, Romeo."
Kaina smirked. "I'm sure they want to check on you," She teased while patting Izuku's head. "Go talk to them. I'll help your mom get Nana settled."
"Tell them everything dear," Inko told her with a smile. "Don't keep any secrets from them."
Izuku looked down to see it was from Ochako and blushed. "Ok, I'll see you all in the morning."After a round of hugs, he went to bed to fill his girlfriends in on this crazy night.
Inko went to the closet and grabbed an arm full of blankets and pillows. "Let me get you set up." she waited for her daughter to get off the couch and started to make it up. Kaina helped and in a few minutes the couch was made up for the night. "I'll get a nice futon tomorrow on my way home for you to sleep on dear." Inko fussed as he kept smoothing out the blankets.
Nana walked over and gently held her mother's hands. "Mom, it's fine. I can sleep on the couch for the night or two."
Inko nodded her head feeling a bit better. "I'm just wanting you to feel at home." She said with a motherly smile.
Nana pulled her into a tight hug. "I know Mom." She said softly before releasing her from the hug. "I'm sure you're exhausted. Get some rest. we can talk tomorrow."
Inko is about to say something when Kaina placed a hand on her shoulder. "Hun, let's get some sleep. we need to be up early in the morning."
"Ok," Inko said in a resigned tone. She pointed to a door down the hall. "That's my room. Knock if you need anything."
"I will," Nana said softly. "I love you, Mom."
"I love you too baby girl," Inko replied before Kaina led her off towards the bedroom.
Nana laid down on the couch and let out a deep sigh. She looked over at the case file on the coffee table and picked it up. Her heart ached for her son. She was tired, but she wanted to read everything again before trying to sleep. She had lost three decades to sleep and now she wanted to get back to living again.
Inko walked into her bedroom and rubbed her eyes tiredly. So many secrets were off her chest and she felt lighter but tired at the same time. She heard the lock of her bedroom door click behind her. Inko turned to see her girlfriend with a Cheshire grin on her face. "Kaina?" She asked confused for a moment before Kaina removed her shirt.
"You are in need of some TLC," Kaina told her as she stalked forward. "I am making sure you get some sleep, even if I have to wear you out in the process." She moved forward fast and captured Inko's lips in a passionate kiss. "So be it."
Inko wrapped her arms around Kaina's neck as she returned the kiss. Inko relaxed as she felt Kaina wrap her arms around her waist. Inko finally ended the kiss gasping for air. "Gods." She moaned.
"I aim to please my Queen." Kaina purred as she slid her hands down to cup Inko's ass. "Tonight, I'm going to worship you and you are going to enjoy it." Kaina began to kiss and nip at Inko's neck.
Inko tried to form words as she felt Kaina pick her up and carry her to the bed. After that everything was a blur of passion and clothes were tossed around the room.
"It's good to be the Queen," Inko murmured as she felt Kaina leave a trail of kisses down her body.
Izuku awoke in the middle of the night feeling thirsty. He got up to head to the kitchen to get a drink of water. As he exited his room he heard soft crying on the couch. Izuku grabbed a glass of water and went over to find Nana sitting on the couch holding a picture in one of her hands.
"Nana," Izuku said softly as he came around the couch to sit beside her.
She looked up and quickly wiped her eyes. "Hey little brother. what are you doing up this late?" She asked setting the picture of her son back on the coffee table.
Izuku held up his cup of water. "I got thirsty." He replied reaching for the Kleenex "I know it's a stupid question, but are you ok?"
Nana snorted as she put an arm around her little brother's shoulder. "I appreciate it." She said with a small smile. "Just trying processing everything. I had a bad dream about my fight with AFO and I miss my son."
Izuku took a sip of water. "Can you tell me about him?" He asked setting his glass on the coffee table.
Nana gave him a slight smile. "Sure." She told him several stories about her son and the happy memories that always made her smile. Kotaro's first birthday. His first trip to the zoo. With each story, her smile grew a little bigger. Izuku listened to each story and was smiling alongside his big sister. As Nana reach the last of her stories she hugged her brother tightly. "Thank you."
"it's the least I could do sis," Izuku said returning the hug.
Nana looked at the clock on the wall. "Are you heading back to bed?" She asked leaning back again on the couch.
"I can stay up a bit longer," Izuku replied taking another sip of his water.
Nana nodded her head and gestured for him to get comfortable. "Tell me about yourself. I want to know more about my little brother."
"What do you want to know?" Izuku asked already knowing the answer.
Nana pulled him a bit closer to her. "Everything."
Izuku took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "I'll tell you if you promise to let me get to the end before you react please."
"I promise," Nana said quickly wanting to know more about him.
Izuku nodded his head. "Alright. here I go."
Izuku had to hold onto his Sister several times during his story to keep her from running off to burn down his old school or to get her hand on Bakugo. He showed Nana a few of the video clips of his Ranger saves. He had to hold on tight to Nana again when he got to the part about Toshinori telling him he couldn't be a hero. By the end of his story, Nana was holding her brother tightly. "I'll protect you Izuku. You are a Hero."
"Thanks, Sis." Izuku leaned his head against her shoulder. He let out a yawn and felt his eyes get heavy. he let his eyes close to rest them for a moment and drifted off.
Nana smiled as she watched Izuku fall asleep. She reached out and summoned a blanket to her hand and covered them both with it. Nana got comfortable on the couch before closing her eyes and dozing off still holding her brother.
Inko groaned after hearing an alarm going off. She opened an eye to see Kaina sitting on edge of the bed turning off the alarm on her phone. Inko admired her girlfriend's naked body as she watched Kaina stretch. "Morning beautiful," Inko said as she pushed herself up into a sitting position.
Kaina turned around and smiled. "Go back to sleep. I have to get ready to go train my team." She explained as she was looking for her clothes on the floor.
"How about after you are done for the day, you come here for a family dinner tonight." Inko offered. "Just you, me, Eri, Raphtalia, Izuku and Nana."
Kaina crawled back on the bed and kissed Inko tenderly. "Sound good to me." She replied as she moved to get off the bed and find her clothes. "Care to join me for a shower?"
“It would be a shame to waste water," Inko replied tossing off the sheet and making her way toward the shower. She made sure to add an extra sway to her hips.
"God, I love my life," Kaina said hurrying after Inko.
After a detailed shower, Inko quietly exited her bedroom to make something quick for Kaina to eat before she had to leave for work. She moved almost silently down the hallway and went to check on Nana before she got started. She smiled at the sight of her children cuddling together. She adjusted their blanket and went to make something for Kaina. Inko had placed the food in a bag for her. They exchanged quiet goodbyes with a kiss. Kaina gave her a wink as she left the apartment to go train her team.
Inko looked at her sleeping children and went and got her phone. She sent Nezu a message saying that Izuku would not be in school today and to have his homework brought to her office. She then went to turn off Izuku's alarm and got to work on Eri's and Raphtalia's lunches for the day. When it was time to wake up her granddaughters she did so by telling them that their Papa was still sleeping and they needed to be quiet. Both girls nodded their heads and quietly moved through the apartment to go to school. Inko kissed both of her children on the forehead. She lifted Eri and Raphtalia up to do the same to Izuku.
Inko left a note for Nana and Izuku on the coffee table as she left the apartment with her granddaughters.
Izuku woke up feeling groggy. It took him a couple of minutes to shake the cobwebs off as he opened his eyes to see he had fallen asleep on the couch. He looked over to see a note on the table. He yawned as he reached for it.
Izuku,
I called Nezu saying you wouldn’t be at school today. Take the time to get to know your sister. I’ll pick up your homework for you. I left breakfast for both you and Nana in the fridge. Just reheat it. I’ll be home later with the girls. I am planning on the family dinner tonight.
I love you both
Mom.
Izuku stretched and got up from the couch to get his phone and send his girlfriends a message about him not being at school today. He looked to see it was almost time for school to start.

Izuku put his phone away and went to go take a shower and get changed for the day. When he came back into the living room he found his sister channel surfing trying to find something on the TV. "Morning."
Nana gave him a lazy wave. “Morning,” She replied still quickly changing the channels. “Mom go to work?”
“Yeah,” Izuku said leaning on the back of the couch. “She called me in at school so we can spend the day together and left breakfast for us in the fridge.”
Nana stopped and looked at her brother. “Mom left us breakfast?” She asked with a big grin on her face. When Izuku nodded his head, Nan cheered. “Score! Let’s go dig in.” Nana dropped the remote and rushed towards the kitchen.
Izuku chuckled as he follow behind Nana to see her grab two plates from the fridge and lay them on the counter. “I’ll start reheating if you get the toast and the drinks.” She suggested taking the covers off the plates and heading towards the microwave.
"Sounds good to me," Izuku said grabbing drinks and grabbing the bread from the counter.
Working together they got their breakfast done and were sitting across from each other as they dug into their food.
Nana let out a content sigh as she set down her fork on the plate. “Mom’s cooking is the best.” She said rubbing her stomach. “That hit the spot.”
Izuku chuckled as she finished up the last of the toast. "Yeah, Mom always makes the best food.” He agreed picking up the dishes to take them to the sink. “We have all day until Mom gets home, so what do you want to do?”
Nana leaned back in her chair. “I need to do some shopping and I’d like to walk around and see what’s changed since I became a popsicle.” She suggested pointing to her current clothing. “Mom loaned me a shirt and shorts last night.”
Izuku nodded his head. “Ok, how about we run to the mall first and then we can walk around. Let me get my wallet.” He replied wiping the dishes as he put them away.
"You are volunteering to go shopping with your big sister?" Nana asked quirking an eyebrow at him.
Izuku shrugged. “I’ve gone shopping with my girlfriends twice.” He said heading towards his room and coming back a minute later with his keys and wallet. “Mom left you some clothes on my bed and some shoes.”
"Alright. Let me go get dressed and we'll head out." Nana said heading off to get changed. She returned wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans along with a pair of red sneakers. The clothes fit her a bit snug around her arms and legs. "I'm ready to go."
“Want me to get us an Uber?” Izuku offered as he took out his phone to see if one is available.
Nana shook her head. "Nah, let's walk to the train station. I can use the fresh air." She answered gesturing to the door.
“Sounds good to me.” Izuku agreed as he follow her out of the apartment and locked the door behind him.
It was a nice day outside as they made their way to the train station. Nana looked around to see a lot had changed and noted a few of her favorite restaurants were no longer around. She hated the fact that Izuku had to pay for her ticket for the train since she had no money. As they rode the train she noted that she was drawing the eyes of most of the men in the train car. She smirk and flexed her arms a bit and got a few of the gawkers to blush.
Izuku glared at them and caused them to look away.
Nana laughed and patted her brother on the head. “It alright little brother.” Nana teased looking around the train car. “I’m hot and don’t mind guys checking me out.”
"Just want them to be respectful to you Sis," Izuku stated as he sent a glare at another onlooker that caused them to turn away from him.
Nana just laughed harder. "I appreciate it." She laughed throwing an arm around Izuku's shoulder. Soon the gawkers went back to their own business and she asked Izuku about current events.
They arrived at their stop exited the train and headed towards the mall. It was about a 15-minute walk before they walked inside the mall as the stores were starting to open.
Izuku gestured to the shops around them. “Where do you start?” He offered.
Nana looked around and pointed to the closest store. “Let me get my underwear and bra’s sorted out.” She then pointed to a coffee place nearby. "Go get me a coffee with cream and sugar and come back in about 20 minutes," Nana suggested. “I don’t need my kid brother knowing what my underwear looks like.”
Izuku let out a sigh of relief. “I can do that, be back in a bit.” He told her before dashing off to the line for her coffee. When he came back he found Nana waiting at the register with everything bagged up. Izuku handed her the coffee and paid without complaining about the cost. After that, they hit a half dozen clothing stores before Nana grabbed a few pairs of shoes.
Izuku offered to carry her bags for her but she rolled her eyes.
“I’m a big girl Izuku," Nana told him as she flexed her powerful biceps. "I know you are just trying to help, but I got this.”
“I just wanted to help Nana.” Izuku offered.
Nana gave him a kind smile. “I know. I appreciate little brother, but I got it.” She tanked him as she looked around for the next shop.
Their next stop was to get her a new phone and get it set up. She let Izuku pick it out since he was more current on phone features, but she picked the color of her phone which ended up being pink. They grabbed some lunch and headed back to the apartment.
After dropping her things off in the corner she asked Izuku to find a movie for them to watch. Izuku brought up a streaming site and picked the original Star Wars Trilogy and they had a movie marathon for the rest of the afternoon. Nana was a little startled when Fire Heart flew across the room and landed on Izuku's lap wanting to be petted.
“Is that a dragon?” Nana asked looking closer to the creature purring like a cat on her brother's lap.
Izuku nodded his head. “Yeah, this is Fire Heart. He normally sleeps during the day.” He explained as the dragon looked up at Nana.
‘Hello.’ Fire Heart greeted before closing his eyes as Izuku continued to pet him.
Nana's eyes went wide. "It talks." She exclaimed as she looked a bit closer to the dragon. "Incredible." She reached out to pet the dragon that moved over to Nana's lap before going to sleep. Izuku laughed at his sister's excitement at seeing the little dragon.
It took a while but they resumed their movie. The Empire Strikes Back had just ended when the front door opened and Eri and Rapthilia ran into the apartment straight towards the couch.
"Papa/Papa!" They cried out together as they jumped onto his lap to hug him.
Izuku just smile as he hugged his daughters. “Hey girls, how a school?” He asked them as she sat on each side of him.
“It was fun!” Eri beamed reaching into her bag. “I drew another picture!”
Raphtalia nodded her head in agreement. “Yeah, we got to play a game before school was over. It was a lot of fun.” She babbled about the game and Izuku gave her his full attention.
Eri reached into her bag and pulled out another piece of paperbefore handing it to Nana. "I drew one for you too Aunt Nana." She said with a bright smile.
Nana took the piece of paper and smiled at the picture. It was a family picture with her added it with Auntie written above her head. She quickly scooped up the unicorn and hugged her tightly. "I love it." She told Eri.
Fire Heart flew to the nearby chair to curl back up as she watched over Eri and Raphtalia.
"Seems like you two had a productive day," Inko said gesturing to the bags of clothes in the corner.
Izuku nodded his head. "Yeah, we went shopping and came back to watch movies together." He explained getting up to hug his mom. "How was your day?"
Inko kissed the top of her sons head. "It was alright. I learned something today I need to talk with Kaina about later tonight." She said looking over to see Nana lifting both girls with her telekinesis. "Nana, be careful with them. You have not used your telekinesis in a long time."
"I'll be careful," Nana replied with a wave of her other hand as she was focused on the happy squeals of her nieces as they flew around the room.
Izuku looked at his mother with a concerned look. "Everything ok Mom?" He asked getting up from the couch.
"I'm fine dear," Inko told him as she pulled him into a hug. "Just found out something about an old friend." She said trailing off at the end. Inko shook her head and moved to the kitchen. “I need to get started on dinner. I set your homework on the kitchen table.”
“Go do your homework,” Nana called out to him as she had Raphtalia doing a barrel roll in the air. “I got them.”
Izuku thanked her and grabbed his textbooks from his backpack. He looked over his assignments and realized it was not as bad as he thought for missing a day of school. He dove into his school work and looked up occasionally to check on his daughters.
An hour later Izuku let out a deep breath as he set down his pencil on the table. He looked over his work to check his answers and then put them in his backpack. The door opened and Kaina walked in looking very tired.
"Hey, how was your day?" Izuku asked walking over to hug her.
Kaina's mood immediately improved. "It was long," She said giving Izuku a slight squeeze. “But it just got a lot better." She ruffled Izuku's hair and walked over to kiss Inko. "Hey, beautiful."
“Hey yourself.” Inko giggled as she pulled Kaina close to her. “Dinner is almost ready. Why don’t you go take a shower?”
"Any chance for a repeat of this mourning?" Kain purred into Inko's ear before giving it a nip.
Inko shot her a hungry look. "Tempting, but I need to finish dinner," Inko told her with a sigh. "Maybe before bed."
"I'll hold you to it," Kaina whispered with a wink.
Dinner was a happy affair. Inko couldn't help but smile as her family was together. She watched as her granddaughters were talking animatedly about their day. Izuku was listening to them and making sure they were eating their vegetables. Nana was winding the girls up and laughing as Eri and Raphtalia started bouncing in their seats. Inko rested her head on Kaina's shoulder.
“Having fun?” Kaina asked with an amused look on her face.
Inko nodded her head. "Yes, it's so nice to have my family under the same roof like this." She moved her head to look into Kaina’s eyes. "My beautiful and sexy girlfriend, Both of my wonderful children, and my adorable grandchildren." She smiled at the laughter and love radiating from the table. "It has been a long time since I've had a moment like this."
"This is just the beginning babe." Kaina grinned taking Inko’s hand in her own. “This is just the first of many nights like this.”
“Glad to hear it.” Inko beamed at Kaina. “I love you Kaina.”
“I love you too Inko.” Kaina crooned as kissed Inko’s cheek.
"Hey how about a family movie before bed?" Izuku offered as he started to gather up his daughter's empty plates.
“I’m down.” Nana agreed grabbing the dishes from the table.
Kaina shrugged. “Sounds like fun to me.” She admitted looking at Inko. “How about it?”
“I’ll go pick a family movie and well get comfortable on the couch.” Inko proposed getting up from the table.
“Sweet! Movie night!” Raphtalia squealed in excitement.
Eri smiled and nodded her head in agreement. “Yeah, movie!”
"I'll get the popcorn," Kaina said moving toward the cabinet.
The rest of the evening was a great family night for everyone to cuddle up together and watch a movie together. Inko picked out a kid's movie for her granddaughters but it was relaxing and they had a lot of fun. After the movie was over, Izuku started to get the girls ready for bed. Nana helped out getting them bathed and dressed for bed.
Izuku decided to call it a night and wanted to talk with his girlfriends before bed. Nana got comfortable on the couch for the night.
Inko and Kaina head for their bedroom. After walking inside Inko locked the door and gestured for Kain to sit on the bed. “I need a favor.” She asked nervously.
"Name it," Kaina replied immediately. She took a seat next to Inko and held her hand.
Inko took a breath. "If you help me with this, you will piss off the commission and Endeavor," Inko warned her girlfriend.
“Now I have to help you.” Kaina joke before giving Inko a wink. “Tell me what you need.”
Inko held Kaina's hand tightly. "Thank you. I need to rescue an old acquaintance of mine from a secure ward."
"Tell me everything," Kaina said in a professional tone.
Wednesday morning was a usual day in the Midoriya household. Izuku got his daughters ready for school and made sure everything was ready for school. Nana helped out and was tagging along to UA at Nezu's request. After dropping off Eri and Raphtalia at their classroom, he headed off to meet with his girlfriends. He got a message from Momo to meet them at the 1-AB classroom.
He got there just before class started. Izuku noted that they were standing in the middle of the class and Mei was with them. "Morning girls," Izuku said with a wave.
Pony hurried over to hug him. "Morning!" She said brightly.
"Morning Izuku," Ochako said giving him a quick hug.
Izuku look a bit confused about the public affection in front of their classmates. "Everything alright?" He asked them.
“Do you trust us?” Setsuna whispered in his ear during her hug.
Izuku nodded his head immediately. “Completely.
"Good," Mina said stepping forward and pulling him into a deep kiss.
Izuku could hear gasps from his classmates, but he didn’t care.
"My turn," Toru said gently turning his head before placing a tender kiss on his lips.
Mei's kiss was short but intense. "Later Zuzu! I got to get to class." She hurried out of the classroom with a smile on her face.
Kyoka wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him gently. "I missed this." She murmured.
Pony walked back over and recreated the famous WW2 picture by dipping Izuku and kissing him before standing him back up. “That was fun.” She said slipping back to English.
Ochako placed a hand on each side of his face minus her pinkies and planted a loving kiss on his lips. "Mine." She giggled as she stepped back.
Setsuna sauntered over and grabbed Izuku by the hips and pulled him towards her. “Come here handsome.” She said before trying to suck his soul out through his lips. When she broke the kiss a pop sound could be heard.
Momo walked over and pulled Izuku into a kiss and slid her tongue into his mouth. She deepened the kiss and cheered when she felt his tongue fight back. She ended the kiss and licked her lips. Momo looked around at her stunned classmates. “This is our declaration. Izuku is our boyfriend and ours alone.” She addressed the classroom. “We don’t share.”
Tetsutetsu could help himself when he yelled out “Manly!”
Tenya was short-circuiting at the blatant show of public affection.
“Lucky bastard.” A few grumbled.
“Damn.” Several said in awe.
There was quite a bit of muttering going on when someone cleared their throat. Everyone turned to look at Mr. Aizawa pinching the bridge of his nose and Vlad King's hand covering his face.
"Problem child," Shouta grumbled as he glared at the Izuku.
Vlad King let out a sigh. “I agree with that name for him.” He agreed. “Everyone take your seats. Homeroom will start soon.
Toru wrapped her tail around Izuku's wrist and pulled him to a chair next to her.
The rest of the morning was pretty normal until they got to Midnight's class who heard what happened in homeroom and teased Izuku mercilessly at the beginning of her class. By lunch, it was all over the school and many guys were glaring at Izuku. The girls were taking turns being affectionate with him. They were happy not to have to hide it anymore. Izuku couldn't help but smile as well he loved them all and now he could show them at school.
The afternoon was filled with Quirk training to prepare them all for the Sports Festival. Shouta and Vlad King had Izuku use his various abilities to help out his classmates improve their quirks. Only Monoma and Bakugo refused any help from him. They both were working on their own away from everyone else, sending hateful glares at Izuku.
At the end of class, Izuku handed out communicators to his fellow Rangers to keep in contact with them. Itsuka and Momo had handed him the first draft of the squad rotations for his approval. He was just finishing up with his meeting when Hitoshi walked over. "Yes?" He asked handing the approved roster back to Itsuka.
“Can I talk to you for a few minutes?” Hitoshi asked putting his hands in his pocket.
Izuku nodded his head. “Sure, Just one sec.” He turned back to face Momo and Itsuka. “Those will work for the roster. Can inform those on standby to listen for their communicators and can you drop off the roster at Nezu’s office for me?” He asked them politely.
"It would be my pleasure Darling," Momo replied stealing a quick kiss. "Message us when you’re done."
I will. Thank you.” Izuku thanked her before turning back to give Hitoshi his full attention. “Lead the way.”
Hitoshi nodded and they started walking toward the locker room. "So, I was wondering if I can get some advice from you." He started looking a bit embarrassed about what he was about to ask.
"I'll do my best," Izuku answered tiling his head slightly confused.
Hitoshi took his phone out ofhis pocket and showed a picture of him with a brunette and blonde girl about this age. “This is Himiko and Camie. They are my girlfriends." He said not used to talking about them with other guys. "I want to do something special for them both but I need some help planning something."
Izuku nodded his head. "I just kind of wing it, but tell me about them, and let's see what I do to help you.”
Hitoshi gave him a slight smile. "Thanks, Izuku. I appreciate it." He said showing Izuku a few of his ideas for the girls as a surprise. Izuku made a few suggestions based on what he was told about them and the two of them were lost in conversation when his phone started to ring. "There she is. She must have gotten out of class a bit early today." He answered the call and put it on speakerphone. "Hey-."
“Hitoshi! We were just attacked!”
“Camie?” Hitoshi asked confused at first. “Who is attacking you? Where are you and Himiko at?”
“It was a group of thugs, but those creatures from the USJ just showed up with some pumpkin-looking thing! Saiko is down and we can’t hold them off much longer!”
Izuku tapped his earpiece. "Alpha, I need you to trace Hitoshi’s phone and activate A squad. Tell them to prepare for Ranger Response."
“Standby Izuku.”
He said as he looked up to see Yui walk around the corner with Momo and Itsuka. “Momo, Get ready to Ranger up. Itsuka standby with B squad.”
"Roger that," Itsuka said heading to the grab her squad. "Yui you coming?"
"I'm going with Izuku," Yui said taking out her Morpher. "I'm not on B squad today."
"Alright be careful," Itsuka replied heading off to the classroom to get her team.
“Hang on Camie. I’m coming!” Hitoshi exclaimed looking at Izuku and Momo. “I’m coming with you.” He said defiantly.
"Alright," Izuku replied knowing he could not talk Hitoshi out of it. "Let go save you, girlfriends."
“Izuku, A squad has been paged. They are preparing to respond.”
"Thank you, Alpha. Can you teleport us to those coordinates?" Izuku asked switching his Morpher.
“Affirmative, I am also detecting a monster at the location. Be careful Rangers.”
“Copy that.” Izuku looked at the group around him. "Ready?" he asked them.
“Ready.” Hitoshi, Momo, and Yui answered together.
"It's Morphin Time!" Izuku calls out

Chapter Text
(Go Go Power Ranger OST)
"RPM! Get in Gear!" Yui calls out. "Get In Gear! RPM Ranger Silver!"
"RPM! Get in Gear!" Hitoshi cries out. "Get In Gear! RPM Ranger Black!"
"Samuraizer! Go Go Samurai!" Momo Calls out. "Samurai Ranger Red!"
"Magical Source, Mystic Force!" Izuku cries out. "Power of the Sun, Solaris Knight!"
The four of them were teleported to the scene to find destruction and chaos all around them.
Hitoshi spotted Himiko and stepped forward. "Hey Asshole, let her go," He growled out as drew his blaster.
Izuku glanced at the scene and came up with a plan. “Yui get the injured to safety. Hitoshi go save your girlfriend.” He glanced at Momo. “You and I are on pumpkin smashing and minion detail until backup arrives."
Yui gave him a thumb up and vanished in a blur of silver.
Hitoshi nodded his head and rushed off to Himiko after switching his Nitro blaster to sword mode.
"Sounds good to me," Momo replied summoning her Fire Breaker to her hand. "Shall we?"
Izuku gestured for her to go first. "Ladies first," Izuku said summoning the Laser Lamp to his hand. “Jenji, you ready for action?”
The top of the lantern popped up revealing a white anthropomorphic cat head. “You bet! I’m glad you called for me boss!” Jenji said excitedly before retreating back into his lamp
Momo just shook her head. “Not even going to ask right now.” She said before charging into the Putties and Cogs swinging her massive sword. “You coming darling?”
"Right behind you," Izuku replied changing the lamp to blaster mode. He jumped into the fray and between the two of them, the minions started dropping. "DECA inform Nezu that we have a monster and Kurogiri on scene.
“Affirmative Izuku, A squad will be there shortly.”
"Copy that," Izuku replied firing a few shots at Pumpkin Rapper's vines. He hit them and they snapped causing the monster to stumbled back a bit. "Pick on someone your own size."
A swarm of Cog rushed towards Momo and Izuku. They glance at one another before unleashing their combined attacks on the machines.
Pumpkin Rapper growled in annoyance and summoned more minions. “I’ll get the brat. Just be ready to send her away.”
"Of course," Kurogiri replied studying the scene. He wanted to make sure he had an accurate assessment to report to Sensei. He took out a dart with a vial attached and held it in his hand as a precaution.
Yui was moving around in a fast blur grabbing two girls that were injured and taking them somewhere safe for the moment. She dashed off again and found two injured police officers. She set them next to the injured girls. Yui tapped her helmet. “This is Yui, I have 4 injured civilians in need of medical attention.”
“This is Alpha-5, I am picking up your signal. Place them close together and lay a hand on one of them. I will take care of the rest.
“Copy,” Yui replied doing as she was told and placing a hand on the ankle of one of the officers. “All set Alpha.”
“Affirmative. Teleporting them to safety now.”
Yui watched as the civilians were teleported away and tapped her helmet again. "Thank you, Alpha." She said grabbing a handful of rocks and running back to help the others.
Hitoshi blurred through several putties and batted them away from with his fist or took them down with his sword. "I'm coming Himiko!" Hitoshi called out to her as he watched her struggle against a pair of vines holding her in place. He caught movement coming from his left and he reach out and caught the putty's hand and slowly turn his head to see it was starting to freak out. "That was rude." He told the putty before he performed a spin kick sending it into several of its friends. He turned in time for a vine to wrap his torso and explode with electricity.
Hitoshi fell back to the ground as smoke rose off his suit. Hitoshi look to see the walking pumpkin laughing away as he moved in front of Himiko. "I'm taking Himiko with me," Hitoshi growled out getting back to his feet.
“Oh, I doubt that, but it's good to dream little Ranger." Pumpkin Rapper taunted as he sent more vines at Hitoshi.
He dodged and switched his sword back to blaster mode and started to pepper the pumpkin with blaster shots.
Pumpkin Rapper growled and his eye fired pink-colored blasts from his eye. "Take that ya pesky wolf.”
Hitoshi barely managed to dodge in time and watched as large rocks came flying through the air and slammed into Pumpkin Rapper sending him to the ground. He watched as Yui ran over to stand beside Hitoshi. “Thanks for the assist.”
"No problem," Yui replied drawing her Cloud Hatchet. “Let’s get your girlfriend.”
Pumpkin Ragger got back to his feet fuming at these setbacks. “That’s it. No more mister nice pumpkin.” He summoned two smaller pumpkins and tossed them at the black and silver Rangers. “Have a blast with these!”
Hitoshi and Yui dodge the pumpkins and were thrown forward as the small pumpkins exploded when they hit the ground.
“Well that’s different” Hitoshi snarked getting back to his feet.
"I officially hate pumpkins," Yui said glaring at the monster as it summoned more pumpkins to its hands.
Izuku and Momo were moving through the Cogs with ease leaving behind broken robots and machine parts. He saw that several of them break away and started blasting buildings with energy attacks causing a large amount of destruction.
“Alpha status on A Squad?” he asked blasting several Cogs to limit the damage.
“Teleporting them in now.”
Izuku watched as several more Rangers teleported in already morphed.
Tenya as the Blue Turbo Ranger.
Tetsutetsu as the Titanium Ranger.
Ojiro as the White Rhino Ranger.
Tsu as the Black Ninja Ranger.
Kinoko as the Green Mystic Ranger.
Izuku could hear explosions and turned to see Hitoshi and Yui dodging explosives. “Tenya, Tetsutetsu, start clearing the buildings of any civilians that are still in the area. Ojiro and Tsu contain the Cogs in this area. Try and keep the damage to a minimum. Kinoko, you’re with Momo and I. We are going to back up Hitoshi and Yui.”
“On it Sir," Tenya replied with a crisp salute.
Tetsutetsu gave him a thumbs up. “We’re on it boss.” He said with a thumbs up before running off with Tenya.
“Well take care of them. Kero.” Tsu replied limbering up.
"We'll keep them contained," Ojiro said with a quick nod of his head. “You can count on us.”
Izuku looked back at Momo and Kinoko. “Time to help out our friends.”
Pumpkin Rapper was able to keep the Rangers at a distance with his bombs and vines. He had kept an eye on his prize. "Wish I could stay but I gotta run Rangers!” He called out grabbing Himiko off the ground by the vines wrapped around her and heading back towards Kurogiri.
“Hitoshi!” Himiko called out still struggling
"No!" Hitoshi screamed chasing after the giant pumpkin. He wanted to fire at the monster, but he would never forgive himself if he hit Himiko by mistake.
Yui was right behind him.
They both were having to dodge more pumpkin bombs slowing them down.
Himiko was furious at being tied up like a present ready to be delivered. She tried to escape several times, but it was the vines were alive. Himiko decided that this was desperate enough to dislocate her shoulder. Stain had thought her the trick, but she didn’t have time to reset it. Himiko suppressed a cry of pain as she dislocated her left shoulder and got her right arm free before the vines tightened around her again. Himiko gritted her as she kept trying to break free.
(Mystic Force OST)
Pumpkin Rapper was almost back to Kurogiri when he stumbled and dropped the girl. He looked down to see a different vine had wrapped around his feet. “What is this? These ain't my vines.” He growled taking a bit of effort to snap it.
Kinoko was holding her staff out in front of her as more vines started to grow and move towards the monster. "Have a taste of your own medicine creep!" Kinoko called out as she allowed some mushrooms to pop and block his vision with pollen. Mushrooms started sprouting all over the monster.
“Argh.” Pumpkin Rapper growled. “Get 'em off. Get 'em off!”
Izuku followed up with multiple blaster shots from the lamp. "Pour it on him. Hitoshi grab her!"
Momo moved in and charged up her Fire Breaker and slammed it into Pumpkin Rapper sending him flying away. Izuku lands several blows against the monster keeping him off balance. “Time to cook this Pumpkin!”
Hitoshi made a mad dash for Himiko. He was almost there when his heart dropped. A portal opened up beneath her and she started to sink into it. “Himiko!" Hitoshi lunged for her and missed her hand by mere inches.
Momo spun around to see what was happening and rushed into action. She created a tracking device with a sticky adhesive on it and tossed it at Himiko. Momo watched it stick to the girl's jacket. An energy blast sent her flying to the ground and lost track of Himiko.
Izuku looked to see Himiko appear prone at Kurogiri’s feet. “Release her!” He order the man as the rest of the team was battling Pumpkin Rapper. He saw Momo get back to her feet and grab her weapon. He noticed that Himiko had taken the tracker and put it into her jacket pocket.
"I am afraid I can do that. I do have a schedule to keep.” Kurogiri said politely as he picked Himiko up off the ground by her neck. “Until we meet again." He gave them a polite bow before throwing the dart with his free hand into Pumpkin Rapper's back. "Enjoy." With minimal effort, he picked Himiko up and stepped into a portal.
“NOOO!” Hitoshi cried as he fell to his knees.
Momo moved to place a hand on his shoulder. "I got a tracker on her." She said allowing a device to appear in her hand. "In a few minutes, I will have the coordinates to find her."
“You did?” Hitoshi asked incredulously. “I don’t know how to thank you.”
Izuku glanced over at Hitoshi. "Stand up and be ready to fight. Something is not right."
Kinoko got a bad feeling as the monster doubled over. "Uh, is that supposed to happen?" She asked as she started to get nervous.
Izuku shook his head. “No, Kurogiri hit him with something.” He readied himself for anything. "Momo, reach out to DECA or Alpha and have them track that signal. We'll cover you."
"On it," Momo said taking a step back and tapping her helmet.
Pumpkin Rapper felt something happen and it burned his insides. He felt power coursing through his body as the pain faded. He started laughing as he felt the power surge through him. As it reached its peak Pumpkin Rapper was laughing manically. "Power Overwhelming! HAHAHA!"
"That can't be good," Tetsutetsu says joining the rest of the Rangers. "Area is clear of civilians. Tenya one final sweep.”
“Cogs are dealt with. Kero.” Tsu adds hopping over. “I agree. Not good.”
Ojiro takes a ready position. “What is the plan?” He asked could feel the tension in the air
"Keep him contained and keep the damage to a minimum," Izuku tells his team. "This is where it gets dangerous."
They watched as the monster started to change colors. Its green-like body had turned almost to black. The orange pumpkin changed to white. That last change was another set of arms that grew out of its sides making him a four-armed menace. The mushrooms from Kinoko’s attack were falling off Pumpkin Rapper.
“So, not Shrooming good," Kinoko said taking a step back and staring at the withered mushrooms on the ground. “That’s new.”
“I know it seems daunting,” Izuku said laying his hand atop of the Laser Lamp. “But together as a team, we can do this.”
"The Lieutenant is right," Tenya agreed taking a place alongside his teammates. "We can do this."
Momo moved back and rested Fire Breaker on her shoulder. “DECA has a location on the tracker I tossed at Himiko.” She kept her eye on the monster in front of them. “What do you want to do?”
Hitoshi moved closer to Izuku. “I have to save Himiko,” He said clenching his fists. “Send me there and I can get her back.”
Izuku tapped his helmet. "Alpha, Tell B Squad to stand by for a response. Also, call out any Pro Rangers available for a Rescue Op."
“Working on it Izuku.”
He turned back to Hitoshi. “As soon as Alpha finds Pros to help. I’ll send you with backup." He promised. "For now, let's fight the monster and keep it from hurting anyone.”
Hitoshi seemed to pause for a moment. “Alright.” He turned back to face the monster. “Let’s mess this pumpkin up.”
“Bring it Rangers!” Pumpkin called out as he squared off against them.
Izuku rubbed the Lazer Lamp a few times to charge it up. "Let's go, team!" Izuku charged forward firing several shots and jumped forward to perform a double kick. His attacks send the Pumpkin Rapper stumbling a few steps back.
Yui and Hitoshi were blurs of Silver and Black as they used their speed to perform hit-and-run attacks on the monster. Making them difficult to catch even with the monster's additional arms. They barely dodged a pumpkin bomb a few times by falling back.
Kinoko changed her Mystic staff to Axe mode and went on the offensive against the Pumpkin Rapper vines to avenge the loss of her mushrooms. “Take that, you bloody shroom killer!” Kinoko cried as she dodged an eye blast from the monster. She grew more vines to intercept his.
Tenya and Tetsutetsu provided support with their blasters to keep up the pressure.
“Take this! Blazing Strike!” Momo cried charging forward and flames wrapped around her Fire Breaker landing her attack into the monster's chest sending it to the ground smoking.
“I think we got him!” Tenya said lowering his blaster slightly.
Before anyone could react, multiple electrified vines and pumpkins launched out from Pumpkin Rapper's hands and connected each of the rangers, and sent sparks everywhere as they exploded. The Rangers cried out as they fell to the ground.
“Spoke a little too soon their buddy." Tetsutetsu groan as he pushed himself up to a knee. "Wait until they stay down before saying anything."
“Agreed.” Yui agreed getting back to her feet.
Izuku was back on his feet and helping his team do the same. “Everyone all right?” He asked helping Momo back up and handing her weapon back to her.
"I'm fine," Momo stated as she took her weapon and got ready to fight again.
“Izuku, Eraserhead and Present Mic are available to respond to Rescue Operations. Would you like me to send B Squad with them?"
Izuku thought for a moment and tapped his helmet. “Negative. Send A Squad with Eraserhead and Present Mic to tracker locations.” He looked around and decided that they needed a new location to continue this fight. “What is the closest quarry or abandon location to minimize the damage?”
“Looking now and informing B Squad of the change.”
“Are you sure Izuku?” Momo asked watching the monster get back on its feet. “I can stay and help.”
“I know you can, but Himiko is important to Hitoshi and I know you can lead the squad to save her," Izuku told her gesturing to the monster. “That monster can’t stay here. If it grows there will be a lot of people in danger. Yui and I will get it somewhere else. With B squad as our support to get rid of it for good."
Momo nodded her head. “You can count on me Izuku. She said standing tall. “A squad fall back on me.”
Izuku stepped forward. “Time to knock the pumpkin down a peg and cover your retreat. Jenji!" He callout out rubbing the lamp a few times. "Full Power! Jenji Shinning Attack!” Izuku pulled the trigger and Jenji was shot out and slammed into Pumpkin Rapper with an explosive force.
“Jenji is on the job Boss!” The large cat turned and jumped atop of the downed monster and started raking his claws viciously over Pumpkin Rapper. “Like picking on little girls huh? What happens when you fight someone your own size!” Jenji was not a fan of bullies. He continued to rake his claws over the monster.
“Argh,” Pumpkin Rapper growled out as he protected this face from the onslaught. “Bad decision you mangy cat!”
“MANGY!” Jenji roared at the insult. “I’ll have you know that spend hours on my appearance, you stupid vegetable!”
Izuku gestured with his head. “Go, while I have him distracted.” He told the squad. “Be safe.”
Momo watched as her team with Hitoshi moved beside her. “Well get the job done.” She told him with conviction in her voice. “Come home to us.”
"Always, May the Power protect you all," Izuku replied tapping his helmet. "Alpha, Send A Squad to coordinates for the Rescue with Eraserhead and Present Mic. I also need that location to take the monster.”
“Affirmative Izuku. I am sending the location to your helmet. Let me know when you need B Squad. They are still awaiting orders.”
“Good. Go save the girl.” Izuku said before turning to look at Yui. “Ready to help be get this pumpkin out of here?” He watched A squad teleport away.
"Born ready," Yui said as the wheels on her helmet started to spin with excitement.
"Good," Izuku smirked under his helmet. "Jenji! Thanks for the help buddy. I’m gonna change forms.”
Jenji flipped back with cat-like grace and gave Izuku a lazy salute. "No problem boss. Mind if I go look around? I promise to stay out of trouble."
Izuku sighed before nodding his head. “Don’t get lost and I want to see you before nightfall.” He warned the anthropomorphic cat. “And don’t cause trouble.”
“Roger dodger!” Jenji said grabbing his lamp and running off. “Later!” Without another word, Jenji snapped his fingers and disappeared.
Izuku changed his Morpher. "RPM! Get in Gear!" He cries out. "Get In Gear! RPM Ranger Gold!" He looked over at Yui. “Follow my lead.” He took a ready position.
"Got it, boss," Yui said getting into a similar ready position.
Izuku waited for him to get back to his feet.
Pumpkin Rapper struggled back to his feet disoriented when he felt someone grab each of his legs and they the world disappeared in a blur of motion.
Kurogiri dropped Himiko to the floor without even an apology. "I have your latest subject Doctor Giraki." He said in a smooth voice. "I apologize for the delay, but seemed she was more protected than we had originally anticipated."
“Fine, Fine.” Doctor Giraki replied scrubbing his hands in a sink. “Have the Putties and Cogs put her on the examination table.” He seemed almost giddy at having the new subject and Kurogiri gave the order before leaving through one of his portals.
Himiko screamed as the gray creatures reset her shoulder by accident while strapping her down to a flat examination table in an X position with the help of several gray and metal creatures. Her wrists and ankles were secured snuggle and the man in the white coat approached her with a scalpel in his hand. “Get away from me you creep.” She bared her teeth at him.
Doctor Giraki just grinned at her. "Oh, you have got spirit. I can't wait to break it." He told her with a chuckle as he started cutting off her clothes. After a few minutes, he moved back to set up his tray.
Himiko glared at the man as she was now laying on the table in her bra and panties. "You sick pervert!" She screamed trying to break free of her restraints. “Is this how you get your kicks! Stripping young girls almost naked for your sick pleasures!”
Doctor Giraki seemed unperturbed by her accusations. “I do have some standards.” He said picking up a syringe to inspect it. “You are too old for my tastes.”
Himiko felt sick as his words registered in her head. “That’s disgusting.” She snapped ignoring the burning pain in her left shoulder. “When I get free I am going to castrate you.” Himiko's teeth were starting to ache from grinding them so hard together.
“Now that was just rude.” Doctor Giraki said in a low voice full of menace. He grabbed Himiko's face, being careful of her teeth. "My patience is finite. I will cut your tongue out if you don't be quiet." He emphasized his point by holding the scalpel a mere inch over her right eye. When Himiko stay quiet he smiled and took a step back. “Good. Now I suggest you stay still.”
Doctor Giraki walked around and cut a lock of her hair and pulled several out at the root. Then he took several tissue samples. The last thing he did was drew several vials of blood which Himiko became extremely agitated at the process. He ignored the girl and took several drops of her blood and brought it over to a case. Doctor Giraki opened it and dropped a few drops on the crystal. Nothing happened at first but after a minute or two.
He was about to call it a failure and kill his new test subject when the crystal started pulsing with pink energy. He moved closer and started laughing maniacally. "FINALLY!" He roared at his success. He closed the case and picked it up before turning around with a manic smile on his face. “I finally found a match” He stalked towards Himiko. “When I am done with you. You will be another masterpiece for my collection.”
Himiko didn’t know what was going on but she struggled harder to escape. “Stay away from me perv.” She warned. “My boyfriend will come for me and he is going to kick your ass.” Himiko kept praying for Hitoshi to come and save her.
“Please, save your useless threats girl.” Doctor Giraki said in a condescending tone. “This place is off the grid. Only 6 people have been here including the two of us. One was the man who brought you here is still alive.” He started laughing. “No one is coming to your rescue. Now when I am done you will join my other three successful projects.” He pointed at Himiko and smiled. "You will be one of the best villains I ever helped create."
Himiko’s blood ran cold. "Never." She whispered as defiantly as she could muster. She felt the tears run down her face. She thought of Hitoshi, Camie, Emi, and Saiko. Her family and friends. "I'll fight you to the bitter end.” Himiko was determined to go down fighting.”
“Brave, but foolish.” Doctor Giraki mocked as he noticed something clatter to the floor as one of the Cogs picked up the remains of girls’ clothing. “What is that?”
Himiko smirked at him. “You’re worst nightmare.” She said as various colors of light surround the table. She smiled brightly as she spotted her boyfriend. “Hitoshi!” Himiko cried in relief. “You came for me!” Himiko noticed that it was the same group she saw before with two new Rangers. One yellow and one purple
"Always," Hitoshi replied grabbing a blanket and tossing it over her to protect her modesty. “You picked the wrong girl to grab pal.” He reached over and easily snapped one of the restraints. Momo and Kinoko helped get the restraints off Himiko. Momo created a pair of sweatpants and a sweatshirt for the blonde girl. After Himiko was dressed Hitoshi scooped her up in a princess carry. Momo and Kinoko moved to protect them if needed.
Momo looked at Hitoshi. “Go, well take it from here.” She ordered him.
Hitoshi nodded. “Thanks for everything. He tapped his helmet. “Two to Recovery Girl please.” A moment later the pair vanished as they were teleported out.
Tetsutetsu, Tenya Ojiro, and Tsu fought the Putties and Cogs with ease.
Doctor Giraki went pale as he held the case a bit tighter. “Don’t just stand there get them!’ He ordered the Putties and Cogs as he ran to save his samples and press the panic button. “Protect me!”
Eraserhead pointed at his students. “Take out the grunts. We’ll get the scientist.” He told them as he rolled his shoulders. He had an issue with people experimenting on kids. He had morphed alongside Present Mic as a precaution. Eraserhead was in his Jungle Fury Wolf Ranger form and his friend in his yellow Turbo Ranger suit. “You’re under arrest. Come quietly.” He performed several elbow and knee strikes against various enemies sending them to the ground. “You’re choice.”
Present dropped a few putties before looking at the Doctor. "I'd surrender. We won't hesitate to drop you." He told the doctor before crossing his arms. "
Doctor Giraki was panicking at being outnumbered and losing his precious research. He felt his phone start to vibrate in his pocket and smirked at the group in front of him. “Sorry, I have too much work to do to go rot in prison.” As a portal appeared beside him and he jumped through it.
Eraserhead growled as the man disappeared. “Dammit.” He swore looking around the lab. It was not a simple homemade lab this was top of the line and that meant expensive. "Momo have your squad secure the area. Don't touch anything."
“Yes sir." Momo acknowledged with a nod of her head. She went and gave the instructions to the rest of A squad. The team broke off into pairs and started to sweep the area.
Eraserhead tapped his helmet. “Nezu.”
“Go ahead Shouta.”
"Found a possible LOV lab," Eraserhead said looking at what paperwork was left on a table. "Our Rescue Op lead us to a scientist that was assisted by Kurogiri in their escape." He glanced around the lab with a bad feeling. "Something is bothering me. This may be much bigger than we expected.”
“How can I assist you?”
Eraserhead let out a sigh. “Send me more Pros and Phantom Ranger and Zen-Aku.”
“Done. Report to me when your investigation is done.”
"I will sir," Eraserhead replied tapping his helmet. "Let's get to work. We may be here a while." He powered down and grabbed his phone to see a miss call from Emi. He called her back. "Emi."
“Shouta! There was an attack near the school. There is a lot of damage and Himiko is not answering her phone!”
"Slow down," Eraserhead said softly. "I'll fill you in."
Present Mic was glad his smirk was hidden by his helmet. He went to start looking around to see what all he could find. The next room made his stomach lurch. The room was well filled with bodies and blood. "Jesus." Present Mic said moving to block the sight from the younger Rangers.
Meanwhile back with Izuku and Yui.
“NOW!” Izuku callout out to Yui as the pair skidded to a sudden stop and let go of the monster. They launched the mutated Pumpkin Rapper off the top of the rock quarry. “Watch that the first step!” He held out his fist.
“It’s a doozie.” Yui finished and completed the fist bump. “Should we get down there?” They watch the monster hit the ground with a cloud of dust puffed up around him.
“Yeah,” Izuku agreed. “Race you.” He darted off.
"Cheater," Yui shouted as she chased after him.
Gold and Silver blurs rushed toward the makeshift road and when they reach the bottom, Pumpkin Rapper is stumbling to his feet.
"I will destroy you two for my humiliation." Pumpkin Rapper growled as he started summoning pumpkins to his hands. "You should have kept your friends around you. I ain't afraid of the two of you.”
Izuku chuckled. “I have more friends on the way.” He heard Alpha in his head and smiled under his helmet. “Speaking of which.”
(Power Rangers Ninja storm OST)
Beside him, various colors of light appeared.
Itsuka Kendo as the Red Jungle Fury Ranger
Nejire Hado as the Red Wind Ninja Ranger
Tamaki Amajiki as the Blue Wind Ninja Ranger
Mirio Togata as the Yellow Wind Ninja Ranger
Togaru Kamakiri as the Navy Thunder Ranger
Shihai Kuoiro- as the Crimson Thunder Ranger
Fumikage Tokoyami as the Green Samurai Ranger
Izuku looked over at Itsuka. “Glad you could join us.”
"Hi," Yui said with a quick wave. "You missed all the fun."
"B Squad ready for action Izuku," Itsuka reported taking a fighting stance. “What the plan.”
“I want to fight the monster!” Nejire said excitedly as she started hovering in the air.
“What! More Rangers?" Pumpkin Rapper complained and stomped his feet in a tantrum. "Y'all are like pests in the pumpkin patch." He flexed his multiple arms. "No one messes with the Pumpkin Rapper!"
"Time to rapper up this pumpkin and send him back to the patch!" Mirio said summoning his Lion Hammer. When he heard everyone else groan. “What that was funny?”
Tamaki just cringes under his helmet. "Oh, Mirio."
Yui gave him a thumbs down. “Boo.”
Togaru just sighed. "Ugh, that was terrible."
Shihai groaned. “Why me.”
Fumikage just drew his sword with a shake of his head. “Such darkness in your words.” He said as Dark Shadow groaned in agreement.
“Man, even I thought that was bad.” Pumpkin Rapper said summoning pumpkin to his hands.
“I hate to agree with the monster, but he’s right.” Nejire chimed in.
Mirio sighed. “Everyone is a critic.”
"As entertaining, as this is," Izuku said gesturing to the monster. "Can we focus on him before we all agree about the terrible pun?"
“I agree!” Nejire said drawing her sword from her back. “Yahoo!” She shot forward to fight against the monster.
Tamaki sighed and drew his sword as well. “Better go back her up.”
Mirio nodded his head. “I was always a fan of the smashing pumpkins." He tried again.
Fumikage just walks past him. "Just stop trying." He deadpanned before running at the monster.
Togaru and Shihai just ran past him to join in on the fight.
"Just stop," Yui said before taking off in a blur of silver.
Itsuka felt a little sorry for Mirio and just patted him on the back. “Hang in there.” She summoned her junglechucks and left.
Izuku just shook his head as he walked past. “Better luck next time.”
Mirio sighed again and shouldered his hammer. "I thought life was supposed to be a gourd." He was sad no one was there to hear him tell his great pun. "I get no respect."
Nejire's first attack landed against Pumpkin Rapper’s chest. On her second swing, he hit her with an exploding pumpkin and sent he flying away from him.
Tamaki followed up with an attack on the monster's blind side before he was batted away by an explosive vine.
Pumpkin Rapper started tossing his pumpkins around causing multiple explosions. "I have some hot beats to drop!"
Togaru and Shihai dodged the attacks by rolling underneath them and came up in near-perfect syne to strike the monster with their thunder staffs by extending them and sending Pumpkin Rapper to the ground.
“You two all right?” Togaru asked as he offered Tamaki a hand.
Tamaki accepted the help back to his feet. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Shihai and Nejire were working together to land several blows against the monster.
“Watch out!” Fumikage called out.
Tamaki and Shihai turned to see vines wrapping around them and both were electrified before being tossed to the ground.
Fumikage was on the move and jumped into the air. “Hiten Mitsurigu Style!” He said as falling down with his hand on his Samurai Saber. “Ryūtsuisen!” He swung his sword down atop of Pumpkin Rapper and sent the monster stumbling back in pain. “Now!”
Itsuka surged forward and was a blur of motion as her junglechucks landed blow after blow against the monster. She finished with a double kick and rolled back. “I’m clear!”
Izuku and Yui combined their Cloud Hatches with their Sky Morphers. They flipped the switch to #2. "Ice Mode!” They fired off multiple shots causing the walking pumpkin to start shivering.
Pumpkin Rapper glared at the Rangers. "This is just wrong, freezing a pumpkin out like this." He dropped a few frozen pumpkin bombs and they shatter on the ground.
"Let me shatter your expectations!" Mirio callout out swinging his hammer to the ground causing the monster to fly up into the air and fall on its face.
“Payback!’ Nejire shouted as she sent her wave attack from her hands into the monster.
Izuku decided it was time to end it. “Guys bring your weapons together and finish this.”
“Right!” They agreed and fell back to stand together as a united front.
Nejire, Tamaki, Mirio, Shihai, and Togaru combined their weapons and took a ready stance. “Thunderstorm cannon!" The five of them called out together. "Full Power!" Nejire pulls the triggers and its combined power slammed into the monster with a powerful explosion. As the smoke cleared all that remained were broken pumpkin pieces and burning vines.
“YAHOO!” Nejire cheered flying up into the air. We beat the pumpkin! Don’t ruin the moment Mirio with your bad puns!”
Mirio's shoulders slouched again. "Hey, I can make good puns." He said a bit defensively. The rest of the Rangers just turn to look at him. He let out a sigh. “Nighteye laughs at my jokes.”
"He has a terrible sense of humor then," Yui said crossing her arms.
“Hey!” Mirio said defensively.
Before the argument could escalate a loud laugh echoed around them. The Rangers turned towards the laughter and spotted Scorpina sitting on a nearby boulder bouncing a silver sphere in her hand.
“Scorpina,” Izuku growled knowing what was about to come. “Looks like we're about to get round two.”
The other rangers tensed up and prepared to react.
"I see you beat my monster," Scorpina said in a bored voice. "This is one of my weakest monsters. Congratulations." She pulled the pin and tossed the Growth bomb at the remains of her monster. "I added a few things to the mix."
The explosion was massive and shook the ground so hard the Rangers had to struggle to keep upright. Soon Pumpkin Rapper started pulling himself back together and grew to a massive size. Soon it seemed like two pumpkins seem to grow out of the monster and fall to the ground beside the Rapper. The pumpkins grew and soon slightly mutated versions of Pumpkin Rapper. One was smiling and had two arms. The other was grinning and has three arms.
“I went from a solo act to a group show!” Pumpkin Rapper and his clones laughed together. “Now I can stomp Rangers.
Izuku watched as Scorpina jumped to her feet and started stalking toward him. “Nejire, Fumikage, Shihai, summon your Zords. I’ll handle Scorpina.” He started to head towards Scorpina when Itsuka and Yui fell in step with him.
"I got your back Izuku," Yui said placing a hand on his shoulder.
Itsuka punched her hand. “Same.
“Ready for another round Scorpina?” Izuku called out taking a ready stance.
Scorpina summoned her sword and staff. “I could use the exercise.” She said stretching her neck from side to side. “I have been itching for a fight.” She glared at the two standing beside them. “You two are out of your depth.”
Itsuka bristled and took a ready stance. "We'll just see about that?"
"I'm not going anywhere," Yui said aiming her weapon at Scorpina.
Scorpina just smirked. “We’ll see.”
(Ninja Storm OST)
Nejire was vibrating with energy as she tapped her helmet. “Alpha! We need our Zords!” She said excitedly.
“Zord are on their way! Good Luck Rangers!”
“Yes!” Nejire said look at Mirio and Tamaki. “You guys ready?”
Mirio nodded. “This will be interesting.”
"I think so," Tamaki said taking a deep breath.
Fumikage nodded his head and rolled his shoulders. “I think we take one each and when we take one down we help one another.”
Shihai rubbed his hands together. “Let’s do it.”
Togaru crossed his arms. “I’m down.
As the Zords arrived they jumped towards them and entered their cockpits.
"Alright," Nejire said strapping into her seat. "Bring em together to form Storm Megazord." She smiled as heard her friends agree and started to form their Megazord.
“Incredible” Mirio said looking around his cockpit and running his hand across the console.
Tamaki was doing the same before watching one of the monsters start stalking towards them. "I-I think we need to handle the monster." He said resting his hands-on controls.
"Right," Nejire said focusing her attention on the creature and moving their Megazord towards it
"I ain't afraid of your toys." Pumpkin rapper growled out as it flexed his four arms. he charged forward.
"Time to show him our POWER!" Mirio cried out as the Storm Megazord moved towards the monster.
"Need to be careful of those extra arms." Tamaki reminded his teammates.
They clashed as the Ninja Rangers landed the first punch in Pumpkin Rapper's face. Their small victory was short before a blow from each arm of the monster's arms struck them.
"Ugh," Nejire grunted as the Megazord was forced back several steps. "Let's try it again."
The Storm Megazord moved forward against and managed another punch and surprised the Pumpkin Rapper with a kick to the shin to throw the monster off balance.
"Why you little." Pumpkin Rapper roared before sending an energy blast from her eyes causing an explosion and sparks to rain from the Storm Megazord. "Eat this!' He started tossing more bombs at the rangers.
"Were too slow," Tamaki said as he was jostled from the attacks. "Any suggestions?"
"Rangers, This is Alpha. The Storm Megazord has a special form called Lightning Mode. For 60 seconds it will allow your Megazord to slim down and move faster."
Nejire started to fist pump the air. "Thanks, Alpha! I say we do it!' She found the button and pressed it. "Lightning Mode!
The Storm Megazord started to collapse in on itself revealing a slimmed more agile form. A large curved sword appeared in each of the Megazord's hands.
"Now this is a diet plan I could really get on!" Mirio joked and just heard sighs from her two friends.
"Clock is running," Tamaki said ignoring the joke.
"On it," Nejire said.
The Storm Megazord took advantage of its newfound agility and started to hack and slash Pumpkin Rapper.
"Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee," Nejire called out as they continued to press their advantage against the monster. They were fast enough to cut through his vine attacks with ease.
"30 seconds remaining," Tamaki called out keeping track of the time.
"I saw we finished him off," Mirio Said to his friends.
"Agreed." Nejire taps a few buttons on her console.
The Storm Megazord start to fly up in the air until a metal ramp started to unfold underneath the Megazord's feet stopping right in front of the monster. They raised the swords up and merged together into a ring. "Ramp Attack!" Nejire, Tamaki, and Mirio call out together as the ring starts rolling down the lamp. The ring started to glow yellow as it picked up speed and slammed into the Pumpkin Rapper causing an explosion.
They flipped to safety as the timer reached zero returning the Megazord to normal.
"Did we get him?" Tamaki asked as the smoke was still too thick to see.
Nejire shrugged her shoulder. "I hope so."
As the smoke cleared they could see the monster stumbling back to its feet. "Guess not." Mirio groaned.
Nejire took a disk off the back of her Morpher. "Power Disk, Lock and Drop." She said as the chest compartment of the Storm Megazord opened and a red and gold sphere exited with the number 01 in gold. "Serpent Sword Online!" The object unfolded revealing a red and silver sword.
Togaru and Shihai combined their Zords to form the Thunder Megazord. They squared off against the 3-armed Pumpkin monster.
"We got this," Shihai said cracking his knuckles and moving their Megazord forward.
"I got your back," Togaru said moving his hands across the control. "Watch it!"
They were hit with three vines causing them to stumble back as minor explosions struck the Megazord in several locations.
They were both jostled a bit but their Zord was tough.
"We need something to cut those vines," Togaru growled as he gripped the controls tighter. "Should we follow our teammates and use a power disk?"
Shihai smirked under his help. "Sounds good to me."He held a gold disk with pink lettering in between his fingers. "Power Disk, Lock and Drop." He turned a small silver handle and the disk dropped.
The chest of the Thunder Megazord dropped down to reveal a black and gold sphere with the 04 in it appeared and opened. A red and gold wind spinner with 4 ax-like blades.
"Spin Blade!" Togaru and Shihai cried out together as he started hacking and slashing the vines that were flying toward them.
"Not this time buddy."Shihai laughs as the destroyed vines fall to the ground.
Togaru was laughing as well. "Time to trim the hedges!"
Laughter could be heard from the other Rangers.
"Oi, That my shtick!" Mirio calls out in annoyance.
"Guess I just do it better." Togaru teased as they moved forward to strike the monster in the chest with the Spin Blade sending it to the ground.
"He's Right Mirio," Nejire said with a giggle.
A sigh could be heard. "I get no respect."
"Ah, much fun as this is," Shihai joked as he watched the monster getting back to its feet "Let's send him back to the pumpkin patch." The Spin Blade started to glow as the blades started to spin. "SPIN BLADE FULL POWER!"
The attack slammed into the 3-armed blowing it to smithereens.
"Yes," Togaru called out in excitement. "That's what happens when you mess with the Thunder Brothers!"
"I like the sound of that." Shihai agreed turning their Zord to see Nejire, Mirio, and Takami were still battling Pumpkin Rapper. "Let's back them up."
"Lead the way," Togaru replied.
Fumikage banked the Samurai Star Chopper to go wide to avoid a series of pink energy attacks before turning back to strafe the third pumpkin monster with two arms. "Coming around for another pass." He said to his teammates as he had to pull up to avoid several vines by inches.
"That was close." Dark Shadow said over Fumikage's shoulder. "Glad our Zord can fly."
"Agreed," Fumikage said pulling the trigger to fire his second salvo at the monster. "I think it is time to switch to Megazord mode." He reached over to the console and tapped a button on his Morpher resting in the console. "Samurai Star Megazord online!." He was smirking under his helmet as it completed its transformation. "Now let's see what I can do with this." He held a gold disk with blue lettering in between his fingers. "Power Disk, Lock and Drop." He turned a small silver handle and the disk dropped.
Yellow lightning surged between the Megazord's hands and a yellow and gold sphere with the number 10 appearing "Bee Spinner!" Fumikage called out as he grabbed the handle. The weapon looked like a cross between a spinner toy and a yoyo in the shape and color of a bee. "This may sting a little." He drew the Megazords arm back. "Full Power!" Before he sent the spinner back and struck the monster several times.
The monster started to swell up like a balloon before exploding.
"You too?" Mirio groaned.
"Ok, I have to say that was pretty cool to watch." Dark Shadow said patting Fumikage on the back.
Fumikage let out a sigh before leaning back in his chair. "Yeah, I think so too." He glanced over to see only Pumpkin Rapper still standing. "Let's go help them out.
Soon the Storm Megazord, Thunder Megazord, and Samurai Star Megazord were standing next to each other.
"Look like you three could use a hand," Fumikage said preparing to use the Bee Spinner again.
"The thing just won't stay down," Mirio said as the monster seemed to be pulling itself back together. "It's healing."
"Should we attack it together?" Shihai suggested as he pointed the spin blade at the monster.
Tamaki nodded his head. "We can give it a try.
"Triple Strike!" The Wind Ranger called out as the Megazord split into three and charged up the sword and hit Pumpkin Rapper three times.
"Spin Blade Full Power!" The Thunder Brother bellowed.
"Bee Spinner! Full Power!" Fumikage and Dark Shadow callout out together.
All the attacks slammed into the Pumpkin Rapper. The monster let out a loud scream of rage as it exploded one last time leaving nothing but smoke in its place.
Izuku deflect Scorpina’s sword away from him as Yui was holding the staff in place Itsuka performed a corkscrew kick to the villainesses chest sending her stumbling back. "Surrender Scorpina." Izuku swapped his Morpher. "S.P.D. Emergency!" He changed forms. "S.P.D. Shadow Ranger!”
Scorpina scowled at Izuku. “What do you think that will accomplish?” She snarled pointing her sword at him while keeping an eye on the other two Rangers.
"This," Izuku said reaching behind his back and pulling out his Morpher and held it out in front of him. "Judgement Mode!"
Scorpina's eyes went wide in surprise and quickly vanished before it could take effect.
Izuku clicked his tongue and returned his Morpher to its holder. "Guess she knew that trick." He scoffed and looked to see the rest of the team jump down to join them as their Zords were being teleported away. “Good Job Team.” He said giving them a thumbs up.
“WHOO!” Nejire screams at the top of her lungs. “THAT WAS AMAZING!” She started floating around the group.
"That was wicked," Togaru said crossing his arms across his chest.
Shihai threw his arms around Togaru’s shoulders. “Call us anytime boss and we’ll be there.”
Fumikage just nodded his head and crossed his arms. “I would like to pilot my Zord again. It was nice to fly that.”
Mirio and Tamaki were talking amongst themselves.
Izuku communicator chirped at him. “Go ahead.” He said tapping his helmet.
“Izuku, A Squad has returned to UA and is waiting to be debriefed with your squad."
"Copy that." He looked around at B squad. "Teleport us back Alpha. We're done here."
“Affirmative.”
The nine Rangers were teleported out of the quarry to UA
After they arrived back on campus the Izuku, Yui, and B squad powered down and made their way to a new room that had been given to Izuku the day before. It was a room for the Ranger teams to debrief and talk about their missions. He led B Squad inside and made his way to talk with Momo. He looked around the room and everyone seemed to be doing alright for the most part. He spotted Fumikage making his way over to Tsu. He was greeted with a quick kiss from Momo. "Rescue went well?" He asked smiling at her.
"Yes, Hitoshi refused to leave her side," Momo said gesturing to the rest of the team. "Mr. Aizawa and several other Pros and teachers are still at the Lab she was taken to.”
"I don't blame him, I would be the same,"Izuku said nodding his head and waving Itsuka up to join Momo and Himself. "Let's get the debrief done and let them go home." He said looking at the clock. "I want to swing by and check on Hitoshi."
“Then we should get started then.” Momo said looking at Itsuka. “Are you good with getting started?”
“Yeah," Itsuka said nodding her head in agreement. “I’ll like to get home to see my parents and get my homework done before it gets too late.”
The debrief took about a half-hour before Izuku dismissed both squads. “Alright thank you all for your hard work today. You all should be proud of yourselves.” He told them all while beaming with pride. “Go get some rest and see your families.”
As they all filed out of the room, Izuku let out a tired sigh. A moment later Izuku felt a pair of arms wrap around his chest from behind. He smiled as he felt Momo press a kiss to the back of his neck. “Thank you.” He felt her press her breasts against his back. “I feel much better now.”
Momo giggled as rested her chin on his shoulder. "Anytime darling." She whispered in his ear. "I just told the others we would meet them at Recovery Girls office in 30 minutes.” Momo nipped his ear playfully. “So, for the next 20 minutes. It’s just us.”
Izuku turned a chair around and pulled Momo onto his lap. “And just how do you want to spend those 20 minutes my Creation Queen?” He teased resting his hands on her powerful hips.
Momo's eyes sparked as rested her forehead against Izuku’s. “I can think of a few things.” She purred mashing her breasts against his chest and wrapped her arms around his neck before kissing him like there was no tomorrow. For those 20 minutes, the rest of the world didn’t exist.
Izuku and Momo arrived outside Recovery Girls office to find the rest of his girlfriends and his daughters waiting for them. Eri and Raphtalia run up to them with big smiles on their faces.
“Papa,” Raphtalia said full of energy as he picked her up and hugged her. “Mama Ochako said you went and save the day.” Her tail was swinging back and forth with excitement.
"Did you beat the bad guy's Mama Momo?" Eri asked as she hugged her mama tight.
Momo giggled at her daughter's adorable question. "Yep,we beat the bad guy's sweetie.” She said smiling at the
“Glad you both are safe," Mei said running over and hugging them both. "We watched you from your helmet cams.” She stole a kiss From Izuku before moving to let the others have their turn.
After all the girls got their turn with Izuku, they went into the office to find Inko sitting at her desk. “Hey Mom,” Izuku called out with Raphtalia still in his arms. “Back safe.”
Inko got up and moved over to hug her son. “Glad to hear it dear.” She moved back and gestured to her desk. “I guessing that you want to know what room for the girl that was rescued by Momo’s team and her friends?” Inko gave him a knowing look.
“Yes,” Izuku replied honestly. “I wanted to check on Hitoshi and see how he and his girlfriends are doing.”
Mina, Setsuna, and Toru's ears perked up and moved a bit closed.
“Girlfriends?” Mina asked eyes hungry for information.
Setsuna grinned. “It’s always the quiet ones.” She joked.
“Izuku, have you been holding out on us?” Toru asked with a pout. “Give us the tea!”
Izuku rolled his eyes and smiled. “He asked me for dating ideas just before he got the call for help. Their names are Himiko and Camie.” Izuku explained quickly before returning his attention to his Mom.
Inko wrote down the room number on a piece of paper. “Here is their room number. All three of them will be here until tomorrow morning.” She said shooing them out. “I have a few patients totake care of and hopefully we will be heading home soon.”
"Ok love you Mom," Izuku said kissing his mother on the cheek before heading out of the office.
Izuku and his group found the room easily enough and he knocked on the door and waited for a response.
“It’s open.” A male voice called out.
Izuku walked in to find Hitoshi sitting on one of the beds with a blonde and a brunette. “Hey Hitoshi, this must be Camie and Himiko.” He said with a wave. “I wish I could have met you under better circumstances.
Hitoshi nodded and pointed to each one as he introduced them.“Himiko, Camie, this is Izuku.”
Himiko gave him a tired wave. “Heard a lot about you.” She said with a smile. “I like your opinions on quirks not being villainous.”
Izuku chuckled. "Well, I was just speaking the truth." He said a little bashful.
"That sounds like Izuku," Kyoka said twirling one of her jacks with a grin.
Camie smirked and looked over to the last bed. "Hey Saiko, you going to join us or just lay over there?"
“I’m fine right here Camie,” Saiko replied with a towel over her eyes. “My head is still killing me.”
Hitoshi rose off the bed and bowed at the waist. "Thank you Izuku." He said keeping his eyes on the ground. "You helped save Himiko after she was taken to that place." His voice started to waver. “I don’t know what I would have done if-.” He tailed off as his emotions the better of him.
Izuku placed a hand on each of Hitoshi’s shoulders and made him stand back up. “It’s what friends do.” He said smiling. “I’m just we got them here safely.”
"You mean it?" Hitoshi asked stunned at Izuku's words. "Were really friends?" He knew they were friendly at lunch, but he didn’t have any real friends.
"Of course." Izuku patted Hitoshi on the shoulder. "I not giving you to choose to refuse me as your friend." He joked with a brief laugh. "Besides I can use a guy friend to hang out with." Izuku held out a hand towards Hitoshi.
Hitoshi looked at it before taking it. “Good to know friend.”
Cooing could be heard around them and they both looked to see the girls in the room giggling. Hitoshi and Izuku both chuckled in embarrassment.
"Well, I'm glad you have a friend Toshi," Himiko said grinning. "Now I won't feel bad when I got to school. I know you'll be in good hands." She gestured over to Camie and Saiko. "I didn't have any friends until I met them at school."
Eri gestured to Momoto set her down and walked over to Izuku and pointed to the bed. "Can you help me up, Papa?" She asked politely.
Camie was about to ask but Hitoshi held up a hand for the moment.
After Eri got on the bed. She offered Himiko a hug by opening her arms wide. "Hi, I'm Eri, I'll be your friend if you want?" She was giving Himiko a big smile. "Papa save me and my sister from bad people and I felt better after a hug and I have friends now."
Himiko's eyes shined at the adorable girl and pulled the little unicorn into a hug. "OMG, you are so adorable!" Himiko squealed rubbing her cheek against the top of Eri’s head. “Oh, I feel better now."
Raphtalia, not one to be outdone by her sister joined her sister on the bed and went over to Camie. "Can I give you a hug?"
Camie scooped the tanuki up and held her close. "OMG, they are like so adorable." She giggled when a purring noise came from the little girl as Camie petted her head. “Aw, she purrs.”
Izuku and the other laughed at the sight before them.
Pony snorted before composing herself. “Soon they will have cult worshipping their cuteness.” She joked as she watched her daughters make Himiko and Camie smile.
Himiko looked over at Hitoshi and her eyes were bright with mischief. “Hitoshi,” She said still fawning over Eri. “I want one.” She said in a casual tone.
“Same here,” Camie join in with a matching smile. “I think Himiko and I need an adorable chibi each."
Hitoshi was caught off guard and started choking on air at their sudden request. "Wait what?' He choked out as his girlfriend bustled out laughing at him.
Mina, Toru, and Setsuna busted out laughing and moved closer to the bed.
"I think we are going to be great friends," Mina said smirking. "My name is Mina. I want to add you and Camie our girl chat group."
"Really?" Himiko asked excitedly. "You want to be friends with me?"
“Oh yeah,’ Setsuna said giving the blonde a toothy smile. “I think you fit right in with us.”
Toru smirked. "We do the same thing to Izuku and I think we can teach each other."
“Oh, no.” Izuku groaned.
Ochako walked over laughing at Izuku's discomfort. "How about we all get to know each other and we can exchange phone numbers?"
Himiko felt happy tears run down her face. “I’d like that.”
Hitoshi walked over and kissed Himiko’s cheek. “Seems like we all got new friends.” He said leaning over and kissing Camie’s forehead.
They spent the next hour and a half talking and laughing. The Girls took turns telling how they fell for Izuku. Himiko and Camie told how they fell for Hitoshi and each other. There was a lot of cooing and giggling at the boys in the room. Eri and Raphtalia took turns sitting on different laps and were having a blast. Saiko joined in to tease Himiko and Camie a few times but stopped quickly when she hinted at her feeling for a certain boy.
When Inko came to say their families had arrived to see Himiko, Saiko, and Camie. Izuku and his girlfriends excused themselves and Himiko was sad to see the chibis go.
“Message us later if you get bored!” Mina called out giving Himiko a conspiratorial grin. “I’m sure we can find more tea to talk about.”
"Sounds too to me," Himiko replied grinning at Hitoshi.
Dr. Giraki was fuming as he stood in his real lab looking at the data he had managed to save before having to flee. "She was the perfect subject." He growled as he ran the numbers. "It will take me months or even years to find a match like her." He gestured to the case as he spoke to the TV screen. "Since she escaped, I doubt they will let anyone get close to her again."
“It would be very likely Doctor that the girl will be heavily monitored.” All for One agreed. “What were you able to recover from Miss Toga before you were interrupted?”
Doctor Giraki let out a sigh and opened the case. "I retrieved hair, skin cells, and blood from her." He placed the items on the table in front of him. "I can run everything again, but I know she was the perfect match and would have been the strongest of them." He seethed in anger at the loss of his test subject.
"All is not lost, Doctor." All for One said with a chuckle. “One moment.” The TV shut off briefly before turning itself back on. Scorpina arrived not far from Doctor Giraki. “Is there enough for you to work with?”
Scorpina stalked over to the vials and examined them. "Yes," She answered confidently. "I have more than enough to clone the girl with these." Scorpina turned back to the screen. "I can wipe the memories from the clone, but muscle memory may still remain."
"I have a quirk that will allow me to add a new personality into the clone." All for One explained as the screen looked brighter. "How long until it would be ready to allow for Doctor Giraki to finish his work?"
Scorpina considered it for a few moments before answering. "A day, two at the most." She continued to study the samples. "I will get to work immediately." She turned away and vanished from the room.
“See Doctor?” All for One said with a joyous tone. “You will have your now subject soon and then we will just need that last one.”
Doctor Giraki smirked and moved to look at the latest report on his computer. “Yes, I see that the numbers look good for compatibility. Where did you find this candidate?”
All for One just laughed. "I came from one of my loyal underlings. That subject will be here in a month's time. I guarantee it."
With that, the TV turned off again and Doctor Giraki went to check on his current subjects and see if the three of them were behaving. Soon they would be handed off to Kurogiri.
Scorpina arrived in her lab and set the sample in a bowl. She went over to a drawer and pulled out a very large and old book. She ran her fingers gingerly over the cover. Scorpina turned to the page she was looking for and got out the needed supplies from the cabinet. She knew from experience that the spell would work since she watched her mother use it before. She had a long time to perfect it. Scorpina glared with anger and disgust at Rita's staff leaning against the wall in front of her. "I proved you, wrong mother." She sneered. "I did surpass you." After getting what she needed from the spell book she closed it and left it on the table. After years of being hidden away out of shame, Scorpina returned as a fierce warrior but was never respected by her Mother. Rita Repulsa never acknowledged Scorpina as her daughter. Now, SCorpina will surpass her and becomes the greatest Empress of all times. She had waited centuries for her chance. She could bide her time for the perfect moment.
Scorpina went to work and started chanting as she mixed the samples and the needed ingredients together. She moved the bowl over a flame and waited until it started to react. Her chanting grew louder as she poured her magic into the concoction. Sweat ran down her face as the spell grew to its crescendo and the room was filled with a malicious purple light. Scorpina grinned as the light faded and in front of her stood a naked clone of Himiko Toga.
She approached slowly and smiled as the clone's eyes were glazed over. Scorpina spoke a short spell and erased the clone's memories. The clone's eyes became a dull gold. She placed a glowing hand on the clone's neck and a moment later a scorpion tattoo appeared before it faded away “Now, who are you?”
“No one.” The Clone replied in a dull voice.
Scorpina's smile grew as she crossed her arms. "Who do you serve?"
“I serve my Empress.” The Clone spoke again in the dull voice before kneeling before Scorpina.
Scorpina spent the rest of her time adding multiple secret commands within the clone before bringing her to All for One.
"I have her ready for you All for One," Scorpina stated leading the clone to stand before him. "She is a blank slate as promised."
"Good work." All for One replied impressed as he used multiple quirks to scan the clone. "Incredible. Not even I can create a masterpiece like this."
“I gave you the personality I desire for the clone.” Dark Spectre growled in impatience. “I want to see this brought to completion.”
Scorpina bowed her head and backed away.
All for One placed a hand atop the clone's head. "I shall get started then." All for One said trying to placate his business partner. His hand grew a bluish-white as the clone's body tensed up before his hand turned a dark red. The minutes passed quietly as All for One continued his work. When he was finished he sat back in his chair. “It’s done.”
“Excellent.” Dark Spectre said with an almost gleeful in his tone. “Rise Astronema. I have need of you.”
The clone rose her head and smirked as she bowed before her Master. "I am at your service Dark Spectre.”
“Fascinating.” All for One said at the complete change from an empty husk to a complete personality. He had only one previous success with this quirk and even then, it was passable at best. "Shall we have her go to the good Doctor so he can get started?”
“Yes, that is a good idea, Astronema.” Dark Spetrestarted. “Scorpina shall take you somewhere and follow Doctor Giraki’s orders. After he is finished I will see to your training.”
“I understand Dark Spetre,” Astronema replied with a low bow. “May I at least get some proper clothing.”
All for One nodded his head. “Of course, my dear.” He snapped his fingers and Kurogiri appeared before him. “Please get the young ladies some clothing before taking her and Scorpina to Doctor Giraki.”
"Yes, Sensei," Kurogiri replied with a bow.

Chapter Text
Mei groaned as heard her alarm went off. She fumbled around and found her phone and turned it off. She sat up in her bed and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. Mei looked over to her nightstand and picked up the picture of her dad. "Morning," Mei said softly running her fingers over the frame. "I wish you were here today for my birthday Daddy." She set it back on her nightstand and scrounged around the mess in her room for a clean uniform and headed off to take a shower.
When she came down the stairs something incredible reached her nose. Mei stopped and sniffed a few times before hurrying into the kitchen to see her Mom sitting at the table sipping her coffee and eating her breakfast. "Mom," Mei said looking confused. "Did you cook this morning?"
"Nope," Melina replied with a smirk. "A special birthday surprise just for you." She gestured behind Mei. "Happy Birthday Baby."
Mei turned around to see Izuku standing in front of the stove cooking with Eri and Raphtalia standing beside him on chairs wearing little aprons helping. "Izuku! Girls!" She exclaimed excitedly.
Eri and Raphtalia turned and hopped down before running toward Mei. "MAMA MEI!' They squeal together and hugged Mei tightly.
"We wanted to make Mama breakfast," Raphtalia said excitedly and bounced in place. "Happy Birthday!" Her tail was swinging to match her excitement.
"Yeah," Eri said smiling brightly. "Happy Birthday Mama."
Mei scooped both of her daughters up with ease and held them close to her chest. "Best surprise ever!' She said as felt them both hugging her tight. "Are you helping Izuku with cooking?"
"Yup," Eri said nodding her head. "He let us crack a few eggs. we wanted to make you happy."
Raphtalia grinned. "You make us happy all the time. We wanted to do the same."
Mei kissed them both on the forehead. "I am very happy right now girls." She said walking over as Izuku was moving her favorite omelet from the skillet onto a plate. "Best Birthday by far Zuzu."
"Get used to it my Tech Queen," Izuku said leaning in to plant a loving kiss on her lips. "I plan on making your birthday special for a very long time." He pressed another kiss to her lips before pointing to the table. "Have a seat. enjoy it while it's hot."
Mei walked over to the table and set Eri and Raphtalia in a nearby chair until her mom scooped up Raphtalia and sat the tanuki on her lap. Izuku chuckled as he spotted Eri pouting and picked Eri up and sat her on his lap making the unicorn smile.
Melina watched them while spoiling her granddaughter with affection. She saw the smile on her daughter's face. Melina could not help be beam at Izuku for making Mei feel special on her birthday. This was the first time in years that Melina was able to wish Mei a Happy Birthday before school. Izuku called late last night to set it up after Eri and Raphtalia wanted to make breakfast for Mei. Inko dropped them off early and Melina got to spend time with her granddaughters. Melina could see Izuku was a fine young man as he doted on his daughters and Mei. 'Maybe after they graduate I can start working with Inko to get a few more adorable grandbabies.' Melina thought as she joined in to sing Mei Happy Birthday.
Izuku and Mei dropped off the girls at their classroom before heading off to meet the rest of the girls for their morning cuddles. Izuku opened the door for her and Mei jumped as the other girls jump out and yelled.
"Surprise!"
Mei had happy tears running down her face as she saw the banner wishing her a Happy 16th birthday. Each of the girls came by to hug her.
"Happy Birthday Mei," Momo said hugging the gild tightly. "I will give your gift later tonight."
Ochako was next with a quick hug. "Happy birthday." She said handing the girl a homemade card. "Same for my gift."
Pony rushed forward for her turn. "Happy Birthday!"
Kyoko walked over and gave her inventor a one-armed hug. "Happy b-day." She told Mei sincerely. "Hope you are ready for some cool gifts."
Toru ran forward and hugged Mei tight. "Happy Birthday!" She was bouncing around like a kid on a sugar rush. "I can wait for your party later tonight."
Setsuna waited for Toru to move before hugging Mei. "You know we are going to have blast at your party. Happy Birthday, girl!"
Mina was the last to move forward and hugged the birthday girl. "Hope you are ready for the party of a lifetime." She grinned at Mei as she threw an arm around her. "Now we decided that you get real Izuku, while we get a clone today."
Mei wiped her eyes and latched onto Izuku's side. "Thanks, everyone!" She led Izuku over to the wall and they sat down and snuggled after Izuku changed his Morpher to make the clones for the rest of his girlfriends. "This day is amazing." She murmured into Izuku's shoulder.
"That is what we were going for," Izuku whispered back placing a kiss on Mei's temple.
Mei licked her lips before snuggling a bit closer. "Can you swing by my workplace at the Command Center after school?" She asked forcing herself to stay calm. "Please? I have a big project that I want you to help me with." Mei gave him the puppy dog eyes.
"Sure," Izuku replied with a smile. "It's your birthday. I'll let Mom know and have her get the girls." He rested his chin on top of her head. "That way you can show your new baby and we can get to the party."
Mei closed her eyes and smiled feeling safe in Izuku's arms.
After their cuddle time came to an end Mei waved at everyone and headed off to class. She pulled out her phone and sent a quick message.
Me: It's a go.
Brown_Bunny: Good! Now let me know when you are there and I'll cover for you.
Me: Thanks for all your help. I can't thank you enough
Brown_Bunny: Anytime kiddo.
Mei put her phone away and walked over to start working on her project with Donatello.
"Morning Donnie." Mei greeted as she grabbed her tools from her locker. "Ready to finish your brother's support gear?"
"Yeah," Donatello replied grinning at her. "Happy Birthday by the way." He handed her a box. “Open it.”
"Thanks," Mei said setting her tools out in the order she wanted before taking her present. Mei opened to find inside was a collapsed training bo staff. “Ok cool.”
Donatello grinned at her. "Well, you talked the other day about wanting to take some lessons. I'll teach you."
Mei went over and hugged her friend. “I can’t wait for my first lesson thanks, Donnie." She grabbed her tools and gestured to their project. "Let's get these babies done."
Donatello laughed as he shook his head. "Sounds to me." He slid down his goggles and went to work on one of his brother's pieces of support gear.
Izuku arrived at Nezu's office for his lessons and could see his mentor was lost in thought. "Everything alright sir?" He asked taking his usual seat.
"It's been a long week," Nezu said with a sigh before sliding a file across his desk. "Take a look Izuku." He leaned back in his chair staring at the wall.
Izuku opened the files and sighed looking over the official reports. They had discussed these incidents already, but as he read through the full reports of the three incidents that had taken place recently.
One was Shoto was admitted for injuries from training with his Father. It was noted in the file that Shoto’s older sister Fuyumi was granted custody of him. Izuku was positive that Nezu had hand in getting the #2 Pro to sign the paperwork.
The next incident report involved Kinoko Komori, it was documented that her Mother had left without telling her daughter until she was long gone for a job opportunity. He saw documentation from the Asui and Tokoyami families willing to look after her together until Kinoko’s guardianship could be hammered out.
The final incident happened the day before during the rescue of Himiko Toga. The incident involved Denki Kaminari. Izuku let out a gasp as he read the report and looked at the attached photos. His father Fugaku Kaminari, a high-ranking member of the HPSC with a very shady history. During the rescue attempt of Himiko, Denki returned to find his mother laying on the floor covered in blood. It was at this time Denki was assaulted and left bloody on the floor next to his mother. According to the report, he was after his son's Morpher. He left to get equipment to retrieve it when Ibara Shiozaki and her parents arrived and called Nezu. Izuku smirked as he saw that Kaina and her team were called out to assist and later Fugaku was apprehended by his daughter Raina Kaminari.
Izuku set down the folder and sighed. "I take it all the UA students' home lives are being investigated as a precaution?” He asked trying to do a breathing exercise. “To make sure they are safe until the dorms are opened?”
"Of course," Nezu replied with a nod. "I called in a few favors. They are working on it as we speak.” He looked at his student. "I will rest easy when the dorms are completed and I know all of my students are safe."
"I agree," Izuku said crossing his arms. "Have you decided on how you want the dorms to run yet?"
Nezu just grinned. "I will let that be a surprise for now." He said steeping his paws. "Now from my understanding the Command Center is planned to be moved tomorrow morning?"
“Yes, Izuku replied with a smile. “DECA has scheduled for it to be teleported first thing in the morning. It will be hidden under Delta base." He pulled out a notebook and flipped a few pages. "We can find a way to start running our new Rangers through the Zord training program.
“Excellent” Nezu said proudly. “Now onto our next topic.”
After a good day of working in the shop with Donatello, the day flew by as Mei hurried to get everything set at the Command Center. Mei just hoped she was not interrupted.
Inko was helping Melina put the finishing touches on Mei's party when the guests started to arrive. Yu arrived first with the gentleman she had started seeing. Hello dear, she greeted Yu and pulled her into a tight hug before turning to greet the man standing next to her. "Nice to officially meet you. I'm Inko."
"Kugo Sakamata, Ma'am," He replied with a smile. "Yu has talked a lot about you."
"Glad to hear it." Inko beamed. "Make sure to take care of my daughter please."
Kugo nodded his head. "Will do Ma'am." He reached over to take Yu's hand in his.
"Call me Inko." She told him as the door opened behind them. "Come on in."
Rumi walked with Ryuko and froze when she spotted Yu holding hands with someone she knew. "Well, we finally get to meet the guy dating our sister." She teased walking forward. "Sup Kugo,"
"Hey, Rumi." Kugo greeted her and held out his fist for her to bump. "How is the new agency going?"
"Good," Rumi replied with a shrug. "Been a blast so far." She grinned at her friend. "So, how did you and two start dating?"
"I want to know that as well," Nemuri asked walking in with Ryu (Pixie-Bob) at her side. "She has been tight-lipped."
"I bet it was romantic." Ryu chimed in with a big grin.
Yu looked a bit embarrassed. "Fine," She said feeling her face warm up. "Come over here and I'll fill you in."
Inko listened in as greeted the rest of the guests arrived. Inko laughed as Raphtalia walked in to ask her a question when spotted Kugo.
"OH!" Raphtalia said excitedly. "You're Gang Orca!" She squealed before running off and coming back a minute later with her sister and notebooks. "Can I get your autograph?"
Kugo chucked and knelt in front of the little tanuki and signed her notebook. He looked over at Eri and gave her a gentle smile. "Would you like an autograph as well?"
"Y-yes please," Eri said softy. "Thank you." She accepted her notebook back and clutched it to her chest with a smile.
Yu was watching him interact with them and it made her heart beat faster. She glanced over to see Inko smirking at her.
Nana walked up behind Yu and whispered. "Looks like he has the makings of being a good dad someday." She laughed as her sister froze in place. "Careful about that ticking clock."
Yu just shot her a look. "That was so mean." She pouted slightly.
"It was just a joke," Nana said softly and pulled her sister into a quick hug. "He seems to be a keeper."
Inko smiled as her granddaughters were moving around her daughters and their partners. She heard the door open to see Izuku's girlfriends and several familiar faces. "Welcome everyone." She greeted. "Izuku is helping Mei with a project but they will be here shortly.
Eri and Raphtalia ran over to hug their Mama's before looking at the other guests.
"Uncle Fumi!" Eri called out and ran towards him. She was talking excitedly to him as Dark Shadow appeared and hugged the little unicorn first. "Hi Dark Shadow."
"Hello, Eri." Fumikage greeted.
"Hi, Eri!" Dark Shadow greeted the girl. "Good to see you again."
Eri beamed as she hurried over to hug Tsu. "Hi, Aunt Tsu!"
"Hello, Eri Kero," Tsu replied with a happy ribbit. "This is our friend Kinoko."
Eri Turned to the mushroom girl. "Hi!"
"OMG!" Kinoko squealed. "You are so adorable! Can I hug you please?"
Eri nodded her head and was hugged instantly by Kinoko.
"Thank you," Eri said sweetly before running over to Momo gesturing for her to pick her up.
Momo kissed the unicorn's forehead. "Hello, sweetie."
Raphtalia ran over to hug Melissa. "Aunt Melissa! are you here for the party too?"
Melissa giggled and picked the tanuki up and set her on her hip. "Yup." She said beaming she gestured to Kiri. "This is my boyfriend Kiri."
Kiri beamed at the small girl. "Hi!" He greeted her with a wave. "Nice to see you again."
“You too Uncle Kiri.” She said with a giggle.
“U-Uncle?” Kiri asked confused as he looked at his girlfriend for information.
Raphtalia tilted her head slightly. "Well You are with Aunt Melissa and that makes you our Uncle." She said it like it was completely natural.
Melissa giggled at her boyfriend's surprise. "Why don't you give your 'Uncle' Kiri a hug." She teased as the tanuki leaned over reaching for him.
Kiri picked Raphtalia up and let her hug him before smiling at his girlfriend.
Raphtalia smiled and wiggled down as the last of the guests arrived. “Himiko!” She squealed as ran to greet her.
"Hey, cutie," Himiko said dropping down to hug her with Camie not far behind her.
Hitoshi just smiled at the sight. He waved at Fumikage and Kirishima before walking over to talk with them as their girlfriends fawned over the adorable Tanuki and Unicorn.
Mei looked over her workstation in the Command Center as she waited for Zuzu to arrive. She had asked him to come help with an important project before his Birthday party started this evening. She had spent the last few days with Rumi helping her plan this. She heard footsteps outside in the hallway moving towards her workstation as she sent a message to her helper.
Me: Zuzu is almost here. You can buy me an hour, right?
Brown_Bunny: Yes, I will cover for you long enough for you to have your fun.
Me: Thanks for the assist. I don’t want to be interrupted.
Brown_Bunny: Pleasure doing business with you Mei. Go get it, girl!
Mei put her phone away as he walked inside. "Hey, Zuzu!" She called out and hugged him tightly. She was hoping he wouldn't notice she wasn't wearing a bra yet. "Glad you could make it."
Izuku laughed at his girlfriend. “No problem, do you want to show me what you needed help with.”
Mei nodded excitedly “It is over on my workbench.” Mei told him pointing as she let him walk in front of her. She quietly slid off her boots and gloves, then she quietly unbuttoned her overalls as she watched him walk over to a recently cleaned workbench. She grabbed the hem of her tank top and pulled it just under her breasts and waited.
Izuku looks over her workbench in confusion as it was clean and there was nothing on it. He turned to ask Mei a question. She pulled off her tank top as Izuku was turning around so he could see her large breasts bouncing free of the confines of her shirt.
Mei was standing there topless before she started walking towards him as she pushed her overalls down her legs. “MEI!” Izuku exclaimed as he watched her breasts bounce with every step. His face flushing red. “What are you doing?”
Mei grins and she moved forward letting her overalls fall to the ground showing her naked body. All she had left was her favorite goggles sitting on her head. "We are going to do a different kind of project tonight Zuzu." She picks him up and set him on the bench as she unbuckled his belt. "I have been waiting a long time to get my hands on this tool." She pulled off his pants revealing a pair of black boxers.
“Mei, I know you are eager for this, but this is a bit sudden." He watched as she ripped his shirt off his chest and could see the hungry look in her eye. "Don't you want to do this somewhere special?"
Mei placed a hand on both sides of his face and kissed him. “I love you Zuzu. I want to do it here and I have been dreaming of this night for months Zuzu. I want my 16th birthday to be amazing.” She smiled as his boxers were straining. “I can see you like what you see.”
"Well, you are incredibly beautiful Mei," Izuku asked as he had to suppress a groan as she started fondling his dick through his boxers. “Are you sure?” He wanted her to be happy.
Mei smiled as she slid her hand down into his boxers and started to stroke his dick. "Yes, I want it here and now." She liked how he moaned as she stroked him. She stopped long enough to shred his boxers and his dick sprang free fully erect. "Very nice Zuzu." She leaned down and kissed the tip causing him to jump. She started with small licks and kisses before she took the tip into her mouth. She started to bob up and down slowly as she watched the expression on Izuku's face become one of bliss.
“Mei that feels so good.” Izuku moaned as he leaned back on the bench. “Is this secured to the wall?” he asked concerned if it coming off the wall.
Mei stopped long enough to answer stroking him at the same time. “It’s bolted to the wall. That bench is rated for well over 600lbs.” She resumed her blow job with a bit more vigor. She zoomed in on his face and watched his expression as she started to fondle his balls.
Izuku was panting as he felt a familiar feeling start to build. “Mei I am so close.” He moaned as she bobbled a few more times as she pulled back and stopped her blow job. “Why?” He asked panting.
Mei pushed him flat on his back as she climbed on top of him and started to grind her pussy against his cock. "If you are going to cum, then it's going to be inside me." She ran her fingers over his chest. "Time for the main course." She straddled his waist and lined up the tip again her dripping pussy. "Look how wet you made me Zuzu." She told him as she felt her arousal dripping as she rubbed his cock against her entrance. She smiled as she slowly lowered herself down onto the base of his cock. Their pelvis was touching one another. "Oh god, this feels amazing."
Izuku was on sensory overload. “You are so tight, but I thought that girls had a-.” He trailed off as she rocked forward slightly. "W-What about a condom?" He asked barely keeping his mind focused on anything but being inside Mei.
“I lost mine a year ago with a toy by accident. I want nothing stopping tonight from being magical." She slowly started to rock back and forward slow at first. "I’m on the pill it's fine." She moaned resting her hand on Izuku's abs. "This feels so good."
Izuku placed a hand on Mei’s hip as the other went to fondle her breast.
Mei was starting to pant. “Just like that Zuzu play with my tits, please.” Mei moaned as she started to speed up. She was lost in the feeling of having him inside her that she threw her head as she rocked harder. She moaned louder as Izuku pinched her nipple.
Izuku was feeling like he was getting close again. He took his hand off her hip and started to play with her clit. She moaned loudly as Izuku ran his thumb over it and felt her pussy tighten at his ministrations. He repeated the action faster and faster.
“Oh god Zuzu, I’m almost there, Just a bit more.” She mewled as her eyes were hazed over with lust as she was rocking faster and harder.
Izuku was not sure how much longer he was going to hold out. “Mei I’m almost there.”
"Me too Zuzu. Me too." She felt him play harder with her clit. She felt the spring tighten and then it snapped. "CUMMING!" They screamed together as she squirted while Izuku shot his load inside her. Mei came again as she felt his warm load fill her up. She fell forward panting on his chest. She looked up to see he was panting too.
"That was amazing," Mei said as she felt she was flying on a cloud. "I can feel your cum inside me. "It’s so warm."
Izuku nodded his head. “That was incredible.” He was still inside her and felt her every twitch. He leaned up and kissed her forehead. "I love you, Mei. Happy Birthday."
Mei looked up and Kissed him. “I love you too Zuzu.” She kissed him again. “Best Birthday Ever.”
Izuku smiled “Glad to hear it Mei, but we have to get to the party or people will be worried." He did not want his mother to come looking for him and find him like this. Not to mention the other girls would not be happy either.
“Rumi is buying me an hour.” She looked over at the clock. “We still have 40 minutes.” She sat up a bit smiling as she felt him still inside her. “That is enough time for a shower and some new clothes for you.” Mei rubbed her breasts against Izuku's chest.
"What about the bench?” Izuku asked. He could feel both of their fluids dripping down his legs.
Mei waved it off. "I'll get it taken care of tomorrow and clean it.” Mei moaned as she got off of him. She missed that feeling as she felt his cum start dripping out. “Come on the birthday girl wants a shower together.” She pulled him towards her bunk room and into her shower. She grabbed her shirt to keep from leaving a trail of cum on the floor.
Izuku let the warm water wash over him as he felt Mei pressing her breasts into his back. The water cascaded over them as Mei slid her arms around Izuku to wash his chest with a soapy washcloth. He shuddered as she dragged hardened nipples across his back with every move. He felt himself getting hard again as she slowly moved down towards his crotch. “Mei I-.” He lost his voice when she wrapped her hand around his cock and started stroking him.
"I want to make sure it's nice and clean. "Mei whispered huskily as she started to nibble on his ear. She wanted to have one more round of fun and she wanted to do it in her shower. “I'm ready for another round Zuzu.”
Izuku spun around and kissed her hungrily. "You are going to be a little minx tonight aren't you Mei," Izuku growled as he pulled back. "How do you want it?" He asked feeling like she ignited a fire inside him.
Mei moved in front of him and placed her hand on the wall before rubbing her ass against his erection. “Take me from behind Zuzu. Make me feel good.” She get excited as she felt his hands on her hips.
"As you wish my Tech Queen." Izuku rumbled gently in her ear as he reached down to line up with her pussy. He thrust into the base. He felt her shudder. "Are you ok?" Izuku asked concerned for her well-being.
“God that was amazing. Hurry up and fuck me Zuzu, I need it please.” Mei begged she was turned on and wanted him to cum inside her again. She started grounding up against him.
Izuku kissed the back of her neck. "Ok Mei." He started slowly thrusting forward as he held on to her hips to keep from slipping out. As Izuku got into a rhythm, he started moving faster and started to thrust harder.
Mei was loving every minute of it. "Just like that Zuzu, just like that and I am going to cum so hard.”
Soon Izuku was a man on a mission he pounded into her and she begged for more. Soon he felt like he was almost here. “Mei I’m gonna cum.” He groaned as he felt her clench her pussy tighter at his words.
“Me too, Harder and cum inside me again," Mei said panting as she was so close she reached down with a hand and started to play with her clit. She knew it was going to be another big one. She needed this so bad she couldn’t stand it.
“MEI!”
“ZUZU!”
Mei felt her legs turn to jelly and would have fallen forward if Izuku had not wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her back to his chest. They were panting as the water ran down them both as their bodies still connected. they stayed that way until they came down and Izuku pulled out of her. "Mei that was amazing." He mumbled as pulled her closer to his chest and kissed her shoulder.
“That it was Zuzu.” Mei turned around and kissed him. “I want to do this again very soon.” She said placing a hand on his chest. “Now we need to hurry up and shower before we are missed at your party.
"Agreed," Izuku said as they hurried up to actually shower and Mei got him some new clothing from the Replicator.
Meanwhile at Mei House.
Inko looked at her watch with a frown. "What could be keeping those two?" She asked with an annoyed sigh. Inko takes out her phone and called Izuku. When he doesn't answer, she hands up with a confused look. "He didn't answer."
Melina was trying to reach Mei but got no response. "Mei didn't answer, but she could have it on silent.
Rumi was grinning brightly as she heard Inko saying she couldn’t reach Izuku. She looked at her sisters. “Remember a certain bet we all placed?” She asked them making sure that her nieces were busy. “I won.”
Nemuri frowned at Rumi before realizing what bet they were talking about. “How can you know that?” She asked narrowing her eyes in suspicion. “What did you do?”
Yu gasped and growled at Rumi. “How do you know?”
“I helped her plan one heck of a birthday bash.” She replied with a grin on her face. “I bought her enough time to have her fun.”
Ryuko groaned as she pinched the bridge of her nose. “Rumi that’s cheating.” She said looking over to see Inko glaring at her phone. “I better let mom know.”
“Really now?” Nana asked looking a bit impressed with her little brother. “Sucks I lost but oh, well.”
"What bet?" Kyoka asked walking over with the rest of Izuku's girlfriends. "Where is Izzy?"
Rumi was about to answer smugly when Inko walked over and gave her a motherly glare. "Well uh, you see." She started before Inko started reaching for her ear. "I'll spill! I promised Mei I’d give her time to ride Izuku.”
Momo and Ochako had covered their daughter's ears as a precaution. The room went silent for several long moments before multiple cried out "WHAT!"
They both let out a sigh of relief as they made it to the party with a few minutes to spare. As soon as they walked into the house they were met with stern looks from his Mother, Melina, his Girlfriends, and Sisters. Kaina was snickering off to the side next to Rumi who was grinning but protecting her ears. He spotted Fumikage, Tsu, Kinoko, Kirishima, Melissa, Hitoshi, Yu's date Kugo (Gang Orca) all looking uncomfortable off to the side. Himiko, Camie, and Ryu (Pixie-bob) were whispering to each other and snickering.
"Rumi you ratted me out?" Mei asked swallowing from the looks she was getting from her Mom and the other girl's faces.
Rumi started to laugh. “Can’t win a bet if no one knows.” She pulled out a handful of money. “Thanks for winning me the bet Mei.”
Ryuko (Ryukyu) let out an annoyed groan. "Never again." She grumbled at her sister.
“That is cheating and you know if Rumi!” Nemuri called out as she was being hugged tightly by her girlfriend Ryu.
Yu had her arms crossed. "You cheated." She growled at the rabbit heroine. "I can't believe you would cheat to win a bet." She sighed as her boyfriend wrapped an arm around her. "Thank you Kugo."
Nana was laughing as she gave her little brother a grin. "Looks at that glow on Mei." She teased the late arrivals. "Izuku must have given her one heck of a ride."
“And then some.” Kaina chimed in from the back.
Mei and Izuku both turned a bright red.
Inko and Melina both face-palmed at Nana's words.
"Mei, we are going to have a bit of girl talk," Ochako said with a determined look. "The party can wait a bit." Mei was dragged off into another room by Momo, Kyoka, Toru, Mina, Pony, Setsuna, and Ochako. Melissa, Camie, Himiko, Tsu and Kinoko follow right behind them.
As Mei was pulled away by the other girls. Izuku was sure he was about to get scolded by his Mom, but Eri and Raphtalia rushed over to him. “Papa we want to tell Mama Mei Happy Birthday!” They said together before they hugged him tightly. “Where is she?”
“She will be back shortly, Girls.” He told them as he kissed the top of their heads. He saw the look in his Mom's eyes telling him this was but a temporary reprieve. "She went to talk with you other Mama's."
“Ok.” Eri beamed running off with Raphtalia to hang out with their aunts.
Izuku walked over to talk with Kirishima, Hitoshi, and Fumikage. “H-Hey guys.” He said trying to break the awkward tension. “Thanks for coming to Mei’s party.”
Fumikage spoke first. “We appreciate the invitation.” He said with a bow. “I hope it was alright, but we invited Kinoko to join us.”
Izuku nods his head. "It's fine," He said with a wave of his hand. "The more the merrier."
“Himiko appreciates the invitation as well.” He said gratefully. “I think it helping her deal with her abduction.” He extended a hand toward Izuku. “Thanks again for the help in saving her.”
Izuku shook his hand. “Told you before. That is what friends are for.” She said with a smile. “I’m sure some time with Eri and Raphtalia has helped a bit.”
"More than a little," Hitoshi said rubbing his face with a hand. "She has been teasing me about wanting one of her own."
Izuku chuckled. "How are you doing Kirishima?" he asked the redhead.
"Just Kiri," He said with a wave of his hand. "You such a cool dad to those two. So manly bro." He said giving Izuku a toothy smile.
Izuku laughed. “Thank Kiri.” He replied crossing his arms.
"What is your workout regime bro?" Kiri asked out of curiosity. "You look jacked."
"Well maybe if we get a chance we can workout together someday." Izuku offered before looking at Hitoshi and Fumikage. "The offer is for you guys as well."
"Sounds good to me," Hitoshi said with a tired smile. "I'm getting a bit tired of working out alone."
Fumikage nodded his head. "I'd be interested in joining your workout." He said as Dark Shadow appeared and nodded his head as well. “Sounds fun.”
Hey guys.” Kugo said walking over to stand by them. “Mind if I hang out with the guys for a bit?” He pointed to see the women deep in conversation.
"Sure," Izuku said with a smile. "Nice to meet you. Please take treat my sister right."
“I promise on my name as a hero.” Kugo said offing her word to Izuku. “I will treat Yu like a queen.”
"Manly," Kiri said grinning.
Fumikage and Dark Shadow nodded their head with approval.
“Can you give us some tips for being a Pro?” Hitoshi asked wanting to change the subject. “Any advice.”
As the guys listened to his advice from Kugo, Izuku was hoping Mei was doing alright with the girls.
Mei sat down on her bed and looked to see she was surrounded by all the girls and gave them a weak wave. "Oh hey." She said with a weak chuckle. “Please don’t be mad at me!”
Mina rushed over to hug Mei and calm her down.
Momo gave Mei a small smile. “We are not angry Mei.” She said softly. “More surprised.”
"And envious," Ochako added with a slight pout.
"Well, Nana was right about one thing," Mina said with a grin. "You are glowing."
Setsuna sand beside Mei and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "That she is Mina," She said smirking at the inventor. "So how was it?"
"I-I." Mei fumbled for words as Pony walked over and gave Mei a big hug. "Thanks, Pony."
Pony smiled at her. “Mei, we figured this would happen,” She said getting a head nod from the other girls in their group. “We were just surprised you beat us to it.”
“Always the quiet ones.” Himiko giggled as she got comfortable on the floor. “I mean I’ve been sleeping with Hitoshi for quite a while.” She gave them all a fanged smile. “A lot of kinky sex too.”
Camie rolled her eyes. "I haven't slept with Hitoshi yet." She said as the room glanced toward her. "I've only just started dating him."
“Alright, Mei we aren't mad," Ochako said blowing out a sigh. "Tell us everything."
Momo nodded her head. “Yes, please tell us how it was Mei.”
"I'll admit I'm curious as well," Kyoka said with a light blush on her face while twirling one of her jacks with her finger.
"I'd like to hear how big he is," Toru said getting a look from everyone in the room. "What? It's a valid question."
"Who gets to ride him next?" Mina asked out of curiosity.
“Dibs!” Pony called out beating Ochako by a second. “My birthday is Sunday and I want the same ride Mei got.”
Melissa coughed into her hand. “I feel like the odd one out here.” She said with a blush on his face. “I can step out if you want.”
“Welcome to girl talk.” Setsuna snicker. “Besides, are you telling me you haven’t had naught dreams about your boyfriend?” She asked with a teasing smile.
Melissa's face turned a darker red and Mina started laughing.
Momo cleared her throat trying to reign the conversation back to where it needed to go.” Mei,” Momo said sweetly. “Tell us everything please?”
The other girls in the room nodded their heads. Kinoko was a blushing mess and even the normally stoic Tsu had a blush on her face. Himiko and Camie got comfortable as Melissa looked unsure if she wanted to stay.
"Well," Mei considered for a minute before shrugging. "Ok, Well I had him come to my workshop." She told the girls everything that happened from the time Izuku arrived to when they got back to her house. As she told them Momo made fans for the other girls as they were feeling very warm and thirsty. Himiko was smirking as she heard the details as Camie and Kinoko were blushing messes. Melissa was about to keep calm as she fanned herself.
Izuku stepped away from talking with Kugo and the other guys to get a drink from the table. He turned around to see his Mom stand behind him with her arms crossed. “H-hey Mom.” Izuku stuttered with a small wave. “H-how are you doing?” He was about to try and walk away when she placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Come with me dear," Inko told him as she led him to another room. "We need to talk."
He glanced to see the room give him a sympathetic look. "S-Sure thing," Izuku said knowing that he was in deep trouble. As they walked into the garage, Izuku walked past her and Inko closed the door. “Mom I’m sorry-.” He was stopped when she held up a hand.
Inko let out a sigh and smiled at her son. "Izuku," She started taking her time to find the right words. "I'm not mad. Honey, you have 8 beautiful young ladies around that love you. This was bound to happen sooner or later." She said moving to hug her son tightly. "I just feel like you're growing up so fast. Dating your girlfriends. Acting as a father to those two girls. I feel like I blinked and my baby grew up.” She let out a sigh. “Just promise me that you will use protection? I want you OUT of UA before you give me my next grandbaby.”
"I promise Mom," Izuku said returning her mom's hug. "Are you sure you are ok? I don't want you to be disappointed in me."
“Honey,” Inko whispered placing a motherly kiss on his forehead. “I am extremely proud of you. You are an amazing young man. You are loving and caring to your girlfriends and daughters.” She rested her chin on Izuku’s head. “Just don’t be in a hurry to grow up so fast ok?”
“Ok, Mom," Izuku replied as Inko let him out of the garage.
Inko stopped and looked at him. "Also, if you going to do that kind of activity at the apartment, please lock your bedroom door. I don't want Eri and Raphtalia to walk in on you." She said remembering how Izuku walked in on her and Kaina.
"Will do," Izuku replied with a nod of his head.
Inko nodded her head. “Good.” She led him out of the garage as the girls came back into the room looking a bit flushed. “I’d give your girlfriends a few minutes before approaching them.” Gestured for him to go talk with his friends.
Izuku looked over and saw they were looking at him with dark blushes on their faces. Izuku took his mother's advice and went back to talking with the guys.
After a while, Melina had everyone come eat while the food was hot. Everyone was having a good time and laughter filled the house. Izuku moved around to chat with people but made sure to spend time with Mei during her party. Soon it was time for the cake. Mei was smiling brightly as Izuku helped carry the cake in with 16 candles lit. Everyone started sighing happy birthday.
Izuku set the cake down in front of Mei. "Make a wish Birthday girl." He said smiling brightly at her.
Mei thought for a minute before blowing out the candles. “I already got my wish.” She said with a smile. “I have a boyfriend who loves me.”
“That you do Mei.” Izuku agreed moving around to kiss her.
Many in the room cooed or awed.
Eri and Raphtalia moved forward to hug their Mama. After everyone has had their cake, the table is cleared off and presents are set out on the table. Mei was not sure where to start until her daughters held a small package together.
"Here Mama," Raphtalia said with a big smile.
"Open our first," Eri said smiling just a bright.
Mei took their gift and opened the gift. Inside was a framed picture of Mei holding both of her daughters. It was taken not long after Eri started calling Izuku, Papa. The trio was smiling brightly in the photo.
"It's perfect," Mei said showing the rest of the room. which many gave a similar response. "Thank you, girls.” She hugged and kissed both of her daughters.
Next Melissa handed Mei an envelope. "Open it." She told her friend with a big grin on her face.
Mei opened the envelope and pulled out a letter. She read it and let out an ear-piercing squeal. "Melissa this is incredible!" She turned to show everyone the letter. "It's from David Shield! He has offered me an Internship after the Sports Festival and a two-week internship during the summer!"
"Congratulations dear!" Melina told her daughter.
That is great news, Mei!" Momo beamed for the inventor. "One step in your future company." She rested her hands on her hips. "You know that you have me as an investor when you're ready to start it."
“I don’t want to take advantage of your kindness.” Mei tried to argue.
Momo laughed. “None of that. We take care of our own.” Momo handed Mei and decorative envelope. “Here.”
Mei hugged Melissa before taking the envelope from Momo. After opening it Mei saw 5 professionally printed cards. "Good for one creation?" Mei asked looking at Momo for a moment before getting it. "Really!"
Momo nodded her head. "I will create you one item per card of any object you need to complete your projects." She said before adding. "Within reason."
Mei cradled the card and set them on the picture frame before nearly tackling Momo to the ground. “THANK YOU!”
Ochako got Mei tickets to an upcoming inventors museum opening that she talked about all the time.
Kyoka got her a new media player with her favorite music thanks to Izuku and Melina giving her the music to put on it.
Setsuna got Mei a stack of movies missing from her collection.
Pony bought a few models that Mei had not been able to find.
Mina and Toru chipped in together and got her several sets of new suspenders that had her name on them and had extra pockets added.
Fumikage, Kiri, Himiko, Hitoshi, Camie, Tsu, and Kinoko had gone with gift cards from places suggested by Izuku and the other girls.
Ryuko got Mei a couple of hard-to-find Engineering books.
Nemuri got Mei some new tank-tops in various colors that were made to withstand Mei's lifestyle as an inventor.
Yu got her a framed picture of Izuku and Mei shortly after their first meeting.
Nana had gotten her a nice jacket that look similar to Izuku but in a dark blue.
Kaina got Mei a new tool bet for school made of good leather.
Rumi was relaxing in her chair when someone hand her a box that made her freeze. “Uh, Ryuko, did you grab that off the bottom of my locker?” She asked trying not to sweat in fear.
Ryuko frowned at her sister before nodding her head. “yes, you told me it was in your locker so I grabbed it.”
"Oh, fudge," Rumi said remembering not to swear around Inko. "I may be in trouble. I got her a card that was on the top shelf.” Rumi swallowed hard. “That was a gag gift that I decided against.”
“What did you do?” Ryuko asked turning back to see Mei looking curiously at her gift.
Mei pulled out a see-through negligee that was power blue with a trim of white fur. The room when silent before Mei realized what it was and put it back into the box quickly.
"Oops," Rumi said about to make a run for it when Inko appeared in front of her. "It was an accident I swear." She said almost pleading."
Inko just smiled at Rumi. “We’ll talk about it later dear.” She said in a sweet tone that said it was anything but.
Mei was a bit embarrassed as Izuku came to the rescue with his last gift. “Here.” He said holding out a box in front of him. “I hope you like it.”
Mei opened the box and pulled out a new pair of goggles. She gasped as she ran her fingers over them. “Are these the ones from my Wishlist?” She asked cradling the googles like they were made of glass. “Zuzu, these are too much!”
Izuku pulled her into a kiss and smiled at her. “They are the improved model of your goggles with the welding lens that flips down, night vision, and a built-in temperature gauge." Izuku gently removed her old goggled and rest the new ones on her head. “There we go. Perfect fit.”
Mei gingerly slide the new goggles down and ran them through their multiple functions. When she used her Quirk to zoom in, the lens adjusted to match her magnification. "They are perfect," Mei said latching on to Izuku and kissed him like the world was ending. When Mei ended the kiss she giggled to see the dazed look on Izuku's face.
Melina walked over with a piece of paper in her hand. “Happy Birthday dear.” She said handing the paper to her daughter.
Mei accepted it and read over it. "What? How is this possible?" She asked her mom as she read over the piece of paper again. "Hatsume Industries. CEO Mei Hatsume. Mom the date on this page was the day before Dad died." She looked back down at the letter and covered her mouth. "Dad created my company for me?”
Izuku and Mina were at Mei's side in an instant to comfort her.
“He paid all the fees and had it created on that day and you would gain ownership of it on your 16th birthday," Melina explained to her daughter. "After you graduate, you can start expanding your company and fulfill your dreams dear."
Mei cried as her mother joined Izuku and Mina in hugging her. It took Mei a little bit to settle down, but when she did she was smiling at the fact her dream company was real. She had a few years to start patenting her inventions and start getting her company off the ground.
Inko was the last one to give Mei her gift and when Mei opened it she was confused at first. “What is it?” She pulled out a journal with various schematics and calculations.
"It is similar to the orb You saw earlier this week. This is a bigger version of that." Inko explained as the pointed to that journal. "That was my great-grandfather's original blueprints. I am giving them to you so you can build the memory box.”
Mei clutched the journal to her chest. “I’ll cherish this forever.” She said bowing her head at Inko. “Thank you for trusting me with this.”
Inko gave her a gentle smile. "Well, you are one of my future daughters-in-law. So, I need to make sure some of my world's tech is in good hands." She beamed at Mei. “Once you figure it out. it’s yours to keep.”
Mei's eyes light up as she hugged Inko before flipping through the pages of the journal.
“Later, after the party dear.” Melina lightly scolded her daughter. “Time to dance.” She said pressing the play button and music filled the room. Everyone was pulled to the center of the room to dance. Everyone danced to the music and when it came to the slow danced the coupled paired off. Izuku moved through each of his girlfriends making sure to give Mei an extra dance.
Izuku spotted Tsu and Himiko talking about something as Hitoshi danced with Camie. He spotted a blushing Kinoko dancing with Fumikage. Melissa and Kiri looked happy dancing together and enjoying the music. Nemuri and Ryu were dancing slowly resting their foreheads against each other as they swayed. Yu was smiling as she danced with her head against Kugo's chest.
Inko was off to the side talking with Rumi and Ryuko about something. Kaina walked over with a grin on her face as she pulled Inko onto the dance floor.
As the party came to an end, everyone helped clean up before saying their goodbyes. Izuku gather up his tired daughters and stopped in front of Mei.
"I hope you had a great birthday Mei." He said pressing a kiss to her lips.
Mei smiled and kissed her sleeping daughters on the forehead and hugged all three of them. "The best." She told him taking a step back. “See you tomorrow.”
“Sweet dreams my Tech Queen," Izuku said as he left with his Mom and Kaina following right behind him.
Mei grabbed her present and took them up to her room and neatly put them away before cleaning up her room a bit. She looked at the gift she got from Rumi and tried it on. It was a little small on her, but she thought that was the point. Mei walked over to look in the mirror and had to admit it looked good on her. Mei took out her phone and took a picture before sending it to Izuku. Mei changed into her normal pajamas and curled up in her bed, drifting off to sleep thinking about her time with Izuku in the Command Center.
Izuku got out of the shower after getting his daughters to bed. After the girls were asleep Inko pulled Kaina toward the bedroom with a smile on her face. He went into his room and found a message waiting for him. he opened it and his jaw dropped.
Mei: Hey Zuzu, how do I look?
Izuku felt his face heat up looking at Mei in that negligee. He fumbled with his phone to send her a reply.
Me: You look as beautiful as always Mei.
Izuku put his phone on the charger and lay on the bed staring up at the ceiling. It took him a bit to calm down and fall asleep thinking about that picture of Mei.
Friday morning Mei walked to her desk with a barely noticeable limp. Mei was smiling as she got her tools ready for the day. She was humming a happy tune as she spotted Donatello walking into the room. "Morning Donnie!"
“Morning Mei.” Donatello greeted as he opened his locker. “How was your birthday party?” He attached his tool belt.
"It was amazing," Mei said as her mind drifted back to her time with Izuku in the shower. "Sorry, you couldn't join us."
Donatello shrugged. "Hopefully Nezu can find a way for us to go off campus soon, but my family is safe so it's fine."
Mei nodded her head. "I'm sure Zuzu and Nezu will figure something out." She said setting up her new tool belt and turning to her partner. "Ready to get started?"
"Oh, yeah," Donatello said moving to the workbench.
Izuku had just finished his updated Power Ranger Roster and handed it to Nezu. “There.” He put his own copy away for now. “Are you sure about leaving Kaina’sRanger form as classified for now?”
"Can't be too careful," Nezu replied with a sly smile. "Thank you Izuku." He said sincerely as he added it to a secret cabinet on his desk. "Now, let's get back to your current lessons."
"Yes sir!" Izuku replied excitedly. They were just about, to begin when DECA spoke to them.
“I am sorry to bother you Nezu, but President Tanaka of the HSPC is waiting outside your office requesting to have a meeting with you.”
Nezu smiled and leaned back in his chair. “Thank you DECA.” She said looking over to Izuku. “I am sure this will be an interesting conversation.” He gave Izuku a wink before tapping a button on his desk to open the door. “President Tanaka, what a pleasant surprise.”
"I'm not interested in game Nezu," Tanaka said crossing her arms and glaring at the Principal. "How long are you going to keep hold Fugaku Kaminari in custody? I want him transferred over to my staff to have him charged and arrested for a plethora of charges."
Nezu sighed. “Whatever happened to the art of polite conversation before getting down to business." He mused before returning his attention to the woman. "Well to answer your question. I'm not." Nezu told her and smirked at the stunned expression on her face. "Since he was arrested by SPD officers, that put Mr. Kaminari under SPD jurisdiction. He is being held in a cell with a Quirk dampener of course. The IHC will be overseeing his trial as an impartial court."
President Tanaka overcame her shock and lost it. “Do you know how long I have been waiting for him to slip up?” She barked seething with rage. “That man has been a thorn in my side since day one and my best lead to take down the rest of his corrupt cronies.” Tanaka snapped her fingers and her aid handed her a file 3 inches thick. “I have been building a case against him and if I can get him in my custody then I can get a warrant for his home to get into his personal files.”
Nezu let the woman vent and pulled out a remote from a drawer and clicked a button. "These files?" He asked grinning as the screen was a large room full of boxes and countless officers going through them and documenting their findings. "After obtaining a warrant for Mr. Kaminari's arrest, I gave the officers their warrant to search and seize everything in his office and it was a treasure trove of corrupt individuals."
President Tanaka’s jaw dropped in shock. There had to be a truckload of files that could help her clean out the HSPC for good. “Nezu, I need copies of those files.” She said gesturing to the screen. “Those could help me finally get Fugaku and his cronies out of the HSPC and finally let me and my staff fix to clean up their mess.”
"I already planned to give you copies of everything we recovered as a show of good faith," Nezu said with a shrug of his shoulders. "I am hoping that you can repeal the policies in place that are preventing my student Izuku from being allowed funding for his costume and registering a Hero Name.” Nezu pulled a file from his desk and slid it in front of her. "I also have 5 students and their father staying here on campus. Officer Monoma has been hunting them down with extreme prejudice. I would like you to call him off the Yoshi family."
President Tanaka stopped for a moment before giving him an apprehensive look. “Nezu," She started looking to be as diplomatic as possible. “I am grateful that you are willing to share those files with me, but I can just overturn policies that have been in place for decades.” She glanced over the file and nodded her head. "I will issue the order to have Monoma leave the Yoshi family alone." President Tanaka gestured to Izuku. "Look, I get he has done a lot of good, but without that support item he wouldn't be able to operate safely in the field.”
Nezu gave her a disappointed look. “I see,” He said leaning back in his chair.
"Not like that." President Tanaka said immediately. "Look Nezu, I want us to be able to work together. I am tired of the corruption that is destroying the HSPC. I am holding on to my position by pure stubbornness and knowing where the right skeletons are buried." She let out a tired sigh and sat down in a chair across from Nezu. "I applaud you for being able to get rid of the corruption here at UA and so far, I have heard a lot of positive talk about SPD." She leaned back in the chair and took a deep breath. "The moment I try to help your student or others like him, I'll be out of the office and a new puppet will undo all my hard work." She looked at Izuku. "This is for the Greater Good."
"SPD has hired countless Quirkless men and women," Izuku said looking at Tanaka. "Officers, inventors, scientists, and one of our SPD Rangers is Quirkless like me," Izuku said standing tall. "I have fought tooth and nail to prove I belong to stand beside my classmates." He narrowed his eyes. "I would be careful going by that philosophy Ma'am, the old adage of 'the road to hell is paved with good intentions.’ Fits pretty well.”
“Talk to me when you are my age.” President Tanaka replied brushing off his statement. “I’m looking to build a partnership with SPD. If we work together we can change all of Japan for the better. With your Ranger Tech and my management of the Pro Heroes, we could be unstoppable." She could see the future of her dreams was within her reach. "What do you say?"
“I am more than willing to share everything we found from Mr. Kaminari’s office," Nezu said closing his eyes in disappointment. "But I think it would be best if we kept our organization friendly at best. I believe we are walking two different paths, President Tanaka."
"Y-You can be serious?" She asked incredulously. "You tech along outstrips anything the best company in the world have at the moment. We should combine our organizations and think out all the good we could do!" President Tanaka could not believe they were refusing to work together. “This could be an event for this history books!”
Izuku snorted. “You have corrupt officers who are dangerous enough with the tech they currently have access to," He pointed out shaking his head. "Why would I give them access to technology that would make them even more of a threat to innocent people.”
“With Fugaku’s files, I can get rid of the corruption,” President Tanaka started trying to get them to understand. “My people are trustworthy.” She pleaded with them.
“Our answer remains the same President Tanaka.” Nezu tapped the button on his desk to open the door. “I will personally ensure sure the files are sent over to your office as soon as possible." He gestured to the door. "Have a wonderful day."
President Tanaka just started at Izuku and Nezu for a long minute before she narrowed her eyes. “Fine.” She snapped standing up and turning to leave the office. “I will do this myself and after I get my house in order, I will make sure that SPD is either shut down or brought into the fold." Her staff hurried behind her sending the pair apologetic looks before hurrying after their boss.
"Well, that was fun," Izuku said sarcastically.
Nezu sighed and nodded his head. “That woman is on a slippery slope.” He said closing the door to his office. “She may be a problem in the future.”
“Plan 77?” Izuku offered his mentor.
Nezu shook his head. "Too kind. I was thinking about plan 117.”
"Oh, that is a good one." Izuku agreed taking his seat again. "Now back to the lesson at hand?"
Nezu laughed at his student before nodding his head. “Let us get started.” Nezu waited until Izuku was busy with an assignment and sent a message to an old friend Loid Forger to assist in keeping the HPSC in check. Last Nezu heard from his friend was a couple of years ago when he married his wife Yor and adopted their daughter Anya. He decided to call in an old favor and have them come to UA just in case he needed to go scorched earth with the HPSC. A few minutes later he got a message on his encrypted phone.
Twilight: Enroute. Be there in a few weeks. Any recommendations for my daughter Anya?
Twilight: Encrypted File Attachment.
Nezu ran the file through a special program and read the file. He smiled as he read the age of Anya. ‘Oh my, I am going to enjoy this.’ He mused to himself
Me: I have a class on campus that is your daughter's age. The teacher is very good and will make sure your daughter gets a good education and allow her to play with classmates her own age.
Twilight: Copy that. Thank you, Sir. See you soon.
Me: Safe travels my friend.
The rest of the day was uneventful until they reached their training that afternoon. They went to their usual training area. After being broken into different areas to train their quirks like usual. About an hour later, a loud explosion from Bakugo caused Yuga to send an overcharged shot in surprise hitting a nearby power box and sending the room into darkness. A few moments later the dim emergency lights came on.
“S-Sorry,” Yuga while being helped up to his feet by Sero. "I-I-I didn't mean to."
“Don’t worry about it, little listener." Present Mic said waving his hand. "I saw the whole thing so I guess we need to find another training area." He looked at Sero. "Mind taking him, Recovery Girl?"
"On it," Sero replied leading his shiny friend out of the area.
“All booked up or down for repairs.” Vlad King replied crossing his arms. “Alright, since you all have been working hard this week, I will give you all the afternoon off, but I recommend that you all take the time to do some physical training or your homework.”
Izuku sighed and looked around. "Anyone want to hit the gym with me?" He asked walking over to where Kiri, Hitoshi, and Fumikage were standing. "I'm sure we can get a bit of training in before it's time to go home."
"I'm down," Kiri said excitedly. "I'm curious about your routine man."
Fumikage nodded his head. "Sounds good to me. Need to change up my workouts a bit."
"Why not," Hitoshi said with a shrug.
Denki came over to join them. “Mind If I join you guys?” he asked nervously. “My physical training has been lacking.”
"Sure, anyone else want to join us?" Izuku asked and was surprised to see Shoji walk over to join them. 'Is sign language easier for you?' he signed to his taller classmate.
‘Yes,' Shoji signed back with a bow of his head. ‘I’d like to join you all. I could use a few tips to improve.’
Shoto walked over as well. “Mind if I join you all?”
Raphael walked over to join them. "I'm in," he said rolling his shoulders.
"I will join you all as well," Leonardo said moving to stand beside his brother.
Izuku nodded his head. “Anyone else?” he asked his other classmates before leading the guys to the gym. “Let me tell my girlfriends where I’m going.”
Kiri, Fumikage, and Denki did the same. Hitoshi shrugged as his girlfriends with to a different school and Shoto just looked confused.
Setsuna smirked as she watched her boyfriend walk off with the guys to go work out. “Anyone want to go watch them workout?” She asked with a twinkle in her eyes. “I don’t mind watching Izuku get all sweaty.” The rest of Izuku's girlfriends agreed with Setsuna's suggestion."
"Setsuna." Itsuka groaned at her classmate. “Behave please.”
“I’m in. Kero.” Tsu said moving to stand next to Setsuna. “Kinoko, you want to come?”
Kinoko tapped her pointer fingers together before blushing a bright red and moving to stand next to her friend. “S-Sure.”
"I shall accompany you as well," Reiko said ambling over to join the growing group.
Melissa shrugged before walking over. “Sure, why not.” She said looking forward o hanging out with the other girls.
Momo put her phone back into her pocket. “Mei will be joining us shortly. She said something about snacks and drinks.”
“Himiko and Camie want in.” Mina said a moment pointing at her phone. “Think we can teleport them over?”
"Possibly," Ochako said with a shrug. "I'm good with it."
“Kyoka twirled one of her jacks and looked at the group forming. “We all going or what?” She asked the stragglers.
Yui just shrugged and Itsuka sighed as she nod her head. "Fine." She said resting her hands on her hips. "If nothing else, then to keep Setsuna from tackling her boyfriend to the ground and doing something inappropriate.”
Setsuna was about to argue with Itsukabut she shrugged instead. “Ya got me, Prez.” She agreed rubbing her hands together "Let's all go to the gun show!"
Izuku lead his group to the empty gym that had the best equipment. He had come here several times with training with Shota, Nemuri, and Yu. It had the best equipment and was used in the early days to allow for students to show off their physical prowess for possible internships and job offers. It had an observation area above the gym floor that gave spectators the best view possible of candidates. Izuku brought them here since it was rarely used. He waved them in and they set their water bottles and towels on a nearby bench. They had changed into tank tops to make it easier to work out in.
"How about we start stretching and then we can start off with something light," Izuku suggested as he started limbering up his neck and back muscles.
Denki looks a bit lost. “I’ve worked out here and there, but no one showed me the stretches.” He said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"All good bro," Kirishima said with a wave of his hand. "We can show you."
"Oh, Thanks," Denki said as Kiri and Izuku started stretching and taking the time to make sure Denki felt comfortable. Fumikage, Shoto, and Shoji were familiar with the stretches. After several minutes of stretching, Izuku clapped his hands together. "All rights let's start off with the weight bench first."
"Here we are," Mei said pulling a cooler behind her and holding a bag in the other. "This is the gym that Zuzu goes to work out when he's on campus. "I came to visit him one day and watched from up here. She led the girls from 1-A, and 1-B along with Camie and Himiko. "There." She pointed to the level below them.
They could see the group was taking turns on the weight bench. Izuku had just finished up his turn and Denki was taking his place. It looks like that had been working out for a bit.
The girls started getting comfortable on the benches as Mei started handing out bags of popcorn and bottles of water. "Here," Mei said handing out refreshments to the other girls as she sat down on the bench.
“Look at those muscles.” Mina pursed taking a sip of water. “I say he wears more tank tops in the future.”
"Agreed," Momo said licking her lips.
Pony started planning for her time with her upcoming birthday. "Yup I agree."
Ochako was blushing as she nodded her head in agreement.
Toru turned a bright pink and felt her mouth go dry.
Setsuna gave a content sigh. “Best idea ever.”
“Agreed. Kero.” Tsu ribbited happily as she watched Fumikage lift an impressive amount of weight.
Kinoko squeaked before having to take a large drink of water. "Y-Yup."
"That's my Kiri," Melissa said munching on her popcorn. "I do enjoy watching him work out during our gym time together.”
"You go, girl!" Mina said grinning at Melissa. "I bet Kiri enjoys watching you too.”
Melissa smiled back but her face was a bright red.
Ibara was blushing while watching Denki pushing up on the bar as Kirishima spotted him. She started muttering a prayer.
Reiko was snacking on her popcorn keeping a keen eye on Shoto.
Himiko and Camie were kicked back watching their man work out. "Thank you for the snacks Mei," Himiko said munching on her popcorn. "And the quick trip her."
"No problem," Mei said smirking as she watched Izuku lead them to the next station. "I'm just glad to be hanging out with everyone."
"Like same here," Camie said staring as Hitoshi started doing squats. "I owe Emi a nice gift for letting us out early to be here."
Ochako stopped in the middle of throwing popcorn in her mouth. “How did you get out of class early Mei?” She asked out of curiosity.
"Oh, that," Mei said with a shrug. "I promised not to blow up anything on Monday and Power Loader wrote me a pass."
“Are you going to be able to do that?” Setsuna asked looking at the inventor. “I’ve heard stories from Izu.”
Mei pouted. “Rude. She muttered before sighing. “I won’t work on anything fun that day.”
Itsuka admired their techniques bet didn’t see the point in spectating.
Yui was bored but she got free snacks so she was content.
The girls were having a good time making comments and started getting a little loud.
"Looks like we have ourselves an audience," Hitoshi said quietly as he wiped the sweat from his face. “I can hear Himiko from here.”
Izuku was taking a sip of water. "I know." He replied back quietly. "Watch this," Izuku said winking as he walked over to the salmon ladder and stripped off his shirt. Izuku rolled his shoulder before jumping up to grab onto the bar and let himself hang for a minute before he exploded upward and moved the bar onto the next rung. He repeated this process until he reached the top. After Izuku reached the top, he reversed his movements and went back down. He repeated this process several times.
"Holy Shit," Mina mumbled as her mouth went dry. She watched her boyfriend move with power and grace. Mina could see the sweat running down his chest each time he moved the bar. “I just ruined my favorite pair of panties.”
“Same.” Toru as her skin shifted to a dark red. She was watching his muscles rippling with power. "There are no saving these.
“Oh, wow.” Pony said ribbing her legs together. “Need to make a stop at the locker room mine are ruined as well but that was hot.”
Kyoka had her legs clamped tightly together as her jacks went wild. "I-I liked this pair, but it was worth it.” She was gripping her skirt tightly with both hands.
Setsuna felt to pieces. (literally.) as her head started floating over the railing watching Izuku make his second trip up with the bar. “God bless our boyfriend. I think I need to change my skirt too. I'm soaked."
“Oh, sprinkles" Ochako moaned gripping the bench with both hands being careful not to do it with all five fingers. “Now I have to buy a new pair.”
Momo wiped the drool from her chin. “I’ll take you all shopping for new ones. My treat" She said not taking her eyes off Izuku's impressive display of athletics. "I require a new pair as well."
Mei drained all her water in one gulp. "Love watching him do this." She said setting the empty bottle aside. "Zuzu worked hard for those muscles." Mei looked over at Momo. "Mind if I join your shopping trip? I need a new pair too." She was rubbing her legs together while zooming in to watch his muscles.
"More the merrier," Momo said reaching over to pat Mei on the head.
Izuku dropped to the ground as the sweat rolled down his face. He was trying not to smile as he walked over to grab his towel. He watched his girlfriend's expressions as he moved up the salmon ladder. "That was fun," Izuku said panting as he took a long drink of water. "You up to give it a shot Kiri?”
"I'm down," Kiri said rolling his shoulders, and before following Izuku's example and peeled off his tank top and took his turn on the salmon ladder. He was a bit slower than Izuku but was able to make it up the ladder nonetheless. He spotted Melissa among the group watching them and sent her a wink on his way down.
Melissa blew her boyfriend a kiss after she saw him wink at her. “Thanks for the invitation girls.” She said watching her boyfriend start his second run. Oh, she was going to give him the kiss of a lifetime.
Kiri came down grinning and caught a bottle of water that Izuku tossed at him. "Thanks," He said downing the water and looking at the other guys. "Who's next?"
Fumikage shrugged. "I shall go next." He said taking off his tank top as well and gripping the bar with both hands.
Dark Shadow appeared beside Fumikage and patted him on the back. "You got this." He said before disappearing back into the shadows.
Fumikage started slowly up the rungs taking his time to find every perch. He made his way up and down thanks to years of training. He moved at a steady pace.
Tsu started making a series of high pitch ribbits as her tongued hung off her lips. "I-I may need to go shopping as well. Kero." She muttered watching her shirtless boyfriend.
Kinoko make a squeak as she blushed a dark red and clamped her legs together and gripped her skirt. She noticed several mushrooms starting to grow and quickly started brushing them away.
Fumikage dropped down and grinned as Izuku handed him his towel and a bottle of water. "Who is next?' He asked moving out of the way.
"I'll give it a try," Shoto said moving to reach out and grip the bar. After giving it a few tests, he removed his shirt and moved to start his turn up the salmon ladder. He was the slowest to move up so far, but he was able to reach the top and move down.
Reiko's cheeks went a bright pink and her eye went wide at the sight before her. "Oh my." She muttered watching him stop after coming back to the ground. "Exquisite." She used her quirk to get another bottle of water and started drinking.
Shoto moved away from the salmon ladder and accepted a bottle of water from Hitoshi who let out a sigh. "I better go before Himiko gets impatient." He said tossing off his shirt and took his turn. He was grateful for all the training before school started.
Camie was drooling at the sight of her boyfriend taking his turn up the ladder. "Best day ever." She said rubbing her thighs together.
"Damn straight," Himiko said licking her lips. "I am ambushing him the moment we get home today." She said resisting the urge to shove her hand under her skirt.
Hitoshi moved over to get a drink and felt a chill go up his spine. 'My Himiko danger sense went off." He thought to himself as she opened the bottle of water. 'I'm gonna need more water before I get home.'
'Guess I am next.' Shoji signed to Izuku before moving over to raise the bar a bit higher due to his tall stature. he tossed his tank top away before matching Izuku's speed and power in moving up and down with ease.
Itsuka had been watching the guys and had been impressed with their ability to use the salmon ladder. She had started using one after her uncle introduced her to it. She knew most of the guys down there were taken, but still admired the male form. She blinked a few times when Shoji took his turn and was unable to look away from his rippling muscles. After he was done she glance over at Yui and saw her smiling. "What?"
"Nothing," Yui said with a blank face. She started plotting immediately.
Denki was getting nervous as he was the last one to go. He almost jumped when Izuku stepped in front of him. "What's up, man." He asked.
"You don't have to do the salmon ladder," Izuku told him with a kind smile. "I know you are still new to working out and I want you to get some more experience before trying." He gestured to another piece of equipment. "It's up to you."
Denki looked at the salmon ladder and blew out a breath, "I want to try it." He said with a weak smile. "I want to see how well I do."
Izuku nodded his head. "Alright, but Shoji and I will be underneath you to catch you, just in case ok?" He asked the blonde.
"That makes me feel better," Denki said before hesitating and looking at Izuku. "Do I have to take my shirt off?"
Izuku caught the fear in the other boy's eyes and shook his head, "No," He told Denki softly. "Do what you feel comfortable with."
"Thanks," Denki replied moving over to take his place on the salmon ladder. "Here goes nothing."
Denki hung there for a few moments before he moved it up to the next rung. Izuku was giving him tips as Denki made it another rung.
Ibara smiled as she watch Denki slowly make his way up. She watched him struggle on the way down and gasped when his hand slipped off the bar and fell. She let out a sigh of relief as Izuku and Shoji caught him. She could see a big smile on his face at his attempt and felt her cheeks warm up as he used the bottom of his shirt to wipe the sweat from his face. "Oh." She murmured as she saw his uncovered stomach. She felt several inappropriate thoughts fill her mind.
"Hey, Ibara are you ok?" Itsuka asked her classmate. "You have orange roses sprouting from your vines."
Ibara blushed a bit brighter but started saying a prayer instead of answering.
Raphael was the next to go and managed an aggressive pace completing and moved through the salmon ladder twice before dropping down to the ground grinning at his brother. "Beat that Leo," Raphael said grabbing a bottle of water and accepting a towel from Kiri.
"Yeah, yeah Raph," Leonard muttered as he took his turn. He took a deep breath and blew it out before starting his turn up. He moved with power and precision making one more circuit than his brother. "Thanks, Raph. I guess I just needed the proper motivation."
Raphael grit his teeth and moved off to the next piece of gym equipment.
Izuku moved everyone to the next exercise.
"I think we need a girl's night tomorrow night," Momo said looking around at the others girls. "I think my house would be large enough to hold us all and we can go on a shopping trip that afternoon before starting our sleepover."
Himiko got excited. "Yeah! I am in." She squealed while bouncing around. "It will be my first sleepover."
Mina and Toru gasped in horror before ambushing Himiko and pulling her into a hug.
"Then it's settled," Mina said looking around. "Shopping and sleepover tomorrow."
"Sounds like fun," Reiko said looking forward to making more friends.
Tsu sighed. "I can't. Eri and Raphtalia are sleeping over at my house along with a few others." He explained with a sigh. "I promised my Mom I'd help look after them. Kero."
"Same here," Kinoko said with a sad sigh. "I'm helping Tsu watch the chibi's."
“I can’t go,” Melissa said sadly. “I am going shopping with Kiri’s mom and my Uncles new girlfriend tomorrow morning and I have dinner with my Uncle tomorrow night.” She shrugged her shoulders. “Another time maybe.”
Yui and I already have plans so we will join you all another time." Itsuka said disappointed. "Maybe after the dorms are set up we can have another sleepover?"
"Sounds good to me," Ochako said with thumbs up. The others girls agreed with that idea as they started making plans for tomorrow to meet up at the mall. They spent about 30 minutes working out the details when Kyoka got their attention.
"Izzy is leaving the gym," Kyoka called out gesturing to the guys gathering their stuff. "I think they are heading to the locker room."
Pony flushed a bit. "I-I think we should let them go first before making a stop at the locker room too."
Several of the girls had the same reaction. They gave the boys a 5-minute head start before making a quick trip to change their panties.
Later that night a janitor came in and sighed at the dried mess on the benches. "Damn kids." He grumbled before getting to work.
After school was over Izuku said goodbye to his girlfriends and told them to have fun at the sleepover tomorrow and he would see them on Sunday for Pony's Birthday party. Nana had drove Izuku and the girls home as Inko was going to help Rumi get ready for her date. Izuku got started on his homework and looked over both of his daughter's homework sheets before letting them go watch TV. Izuku helped Nana with dinner and as it was about finished Kaina returned home with a tired smile.
Kaina walked over and pulled Izuku into a hug. "How was your day kiddo?" She asked holding Inko tightly.
"Better than the last few days," Izuku replied returning the hug. "How was yours?"
Kaina shrugged her shoulder and laughed. "Better than the last few days."
"Good," He said gesturing to the stove. "Dinner is almost ready. Mom said she would be home in a bit."
"Best part of my day," Kaina said moving to the bedroom she shared with Inko. "I'm gonna grab a quick shower and get changed."
"Don't take too long," Nana called out as Izuku helped her finish cooking.
When Kaina came back into the room wearing a comfy shirt and sweats. She was about to walk over to the table when Izuku walk over to her. "You ok Bunny?" She asked a bit concerned.
"Yeah," Izuku replied quickly. "Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure," Kaina said sweetly and pulled him into a hug. "What do you want to ask?"
"Well since you and Mom are dating, I was wondering if I can call you Mama Kai?" He asked looking a bit embarrassed. "It's fine if you don't want me to call you that, I was j-." His rambling was cut off as Kaina hugged him tighter and kissed the top of his head.
"I'd love for you to call me that Bunny," Kaina said as happy tears ran down her face. "I love you like my own son."
Izuku hugged her tightly as Nana came over and joined the hug. They stay like that until Eri and Raphtalia came to join the hug as well.
"Alright," Nana said pulling out of the group hug. "I say that we eat then family time on the couch. Mom will be home soon and we can watch some movies."
"Yeah, movies!" Raphtalia squealed excitedly.
Eri nodded her head and hurried over to the table. "The quicker we eat, the quicker we get to watch our movie!"
Izuku, Kaina, and Nana laughed and followed the girls over to the table and started enjoying their meal together.
After dinner was over and the dishes were taken care of, Izuku let the girls pick the movie while Kina made the popcorn and Izuku got the drinks. Izuku had Eri on one side and Raphtalia on the other as Fire Heart curled up on Eri's lap.
Inko had got home shortly after dinner and walked over to cuddle up together with Kaina who draped a blanket draped over them.
Izuku was enjoying his time with his daughters watching Finding Nemo. It had been cloudy all day but about half an hour ago it started coming down hard, so he decided to cuddle with his daughters and watch a movie. Inko and Kaina were snuggled up together looking content together.
They were interrupted when they heard a loud knock on the door. "OK I'll be right there " Izuku called out. He smiled at Eri and Raphtalia and got up from the cuddle pile he was in and walked to the door and opened it.
Izuku was shocked to see his sister standing in front of the door, soaked, and from the puffiness of her eyes she had been crying for quite a while.
"Rumi! What's wrong? What happened?" He started but was stopped when Rumi pulled him close and hugged him, crying into his shoulder.
"I trusted him...I gave him my heart...." She sobbed. She clung to her brother like a lifeline.
"MOM!" Izuku called out leading her inside and closing the door.
Inko was by his side in a heartbeat. “Rumi,” she said softly. “What happened baby?”
Rumi threw an arm around her and clung to Inko and Izuku like there was no tomorrow.

Chapter Text
Inko had sent off several messages to his sisters as they managed to get the soaked Rumi to the couch. She was still crying and held on to Izuku as her lifeline. "I'm here Rumi," Izuku whispered as he held his sister close. "I've got you."
Inko looked at Kaina. "Set some fresh towels in the bathroom and can you find something that Rumi can get changed into?" She asked as Rumi still had a hold of her shirt. "Please?"
"On it," Kaina said scooping up Eri and Raphtalia as Fire Heart hovered nearby. "Come on girls, let's go find something for Aunt Rumi to change into."
Nana ran off and came back with a couple of towels. She returned a moment later and started helping Inko get Rumi cleaned up. "Here Mom."
Inko waited for Kaina to leave the room with the girls she started cleaning up the Rumi the best she could. "Honey," Inko said softly. "Talk to me please."
"I-it was all a lie," Rumi mumbled as she calmed slightly. "It was all an assignment to him." She let out a shuddered breath.
Inko tensed at her words. "What assignment?" She asked glancing at her son who was tense as well.
Rumi's eyes were puffy and looked hallow. "Keigo," She said quietly. "The whole date was a mission for him to drug me and get a hold of my Morpher." She felt Inko and Izuku hug her tighter. "He left his phone unlocked and I stumbled upon his messages." Rumi paused as she had to steady herself. "I walked in on him dosing a glass of wine meant for me with some kind of brainwash/lust drug."
Inko pulled her close and kissed Rumi's temple. "You're safe here honey." She pulled back and looked her daughter in the eyes. "How about you let me get you out of those wet clothes and into a hot shower."
"We've got you, little sister," Nana said gently.
"Ok.' Rumi said quietly.
Izuku hugged his sister before Inko led Rumi to the shower. He heard a rapid knocking at the door and Izuku hurried over to find a panting Ryuko standing in the doorway.
"Where is Rumi?" Ryuko asked walking into the apartment looking around. "What happened?"
Izuku raised his hands to calm his draconic sister down. "Mom has her taking a shower and get her out of her wet clothes. I know Nemuri and Yu are on their way here. "Can I fill you all in at the same time?"
Ryuko sighed and nodded her head. "Fine." She took off her coat that was drenched and hung it on a hook near the door.
"Have a seat and let me get some hot chocolate going for all of us," Izuku said moving towards the kitchen. "I know you don't do well with cold."
"Better make a full tray," Nana said grabbing several cups from the cabinet.
Ryuko smiled at her brother and moved to wait in the kitchen with him. "Thank you." She moved over to the kitchen Table as Fire Heart fluttered over and nuzzled against her hand. Ryuko petted the little dragon as she waited.
About twenty minutes later Nemuri arrived with Ryu both asking for Rumi. Izuku sent them to the kitchen to wait. Before he could close the door Yu arrived with Kugo and before they could ask anything, he directed them to the kitchen. After returning to the kitchen he looked at everyone. "I don't know the full story, but this is what I do know," Izuku told them what happened from the moment Rumi arrived until they got to the apartment.
When Izuku finished, he could see anger in everyone's eyes.
"I'll kill him," Ryuko growled out as dragon scales started to appear on her neck and her eyes became narrow slits.
"Get in line," Nemuri said gratefully that her girlfriend was holding on to her tightly.
Ryu patted Nemuri on the back. "I know a place to bury the body.
"So, we agree on a hawk hunt?" Nana said cracking her knuckles.
Yu narrowed her eyes. "I'm game."
Kugo pulled Yu close to him and started to comfort her. "Deep breath," he said looking around the table. "I know everyone is upset, but let's hear everything from Rumi before we do anything rash." He said trying to be a voice of reason. "We need to think before we react."
"I agree," Inko said walking out of her room with Kaina right being her. Eri and Raphtalia hurried over to greet their aunts. "No one is to go near Hawks. I will handle this. Understood?" Inko gave off an aura that would make anyone freeze in place.
Everyone in the room nodded their heads quickly.
"Good," Inko said letting her scary aura fade. "Now, Rumi will be out here a few minutes. Let her get comfortable before we start asking questions."
Kugo felt a tap on his leg. he looked down to see Raphtalia was the one who got his attention. "Yes?" he asked the small girl with a smile.
"Can Eri and I ask you more questions?" Raphtalia asked holding a notebook in her hands.
"Sure," Kugo said gesturing to the living room. "How about we go into the living room."
Kugo stood up and offered a hand to each girl as they walked into the living room. As soon as they sat down on the couch they could hear him answering their questions.
They waited patiently as Rumi shuffled out of Inko's room wearing a gray shirt and sweat pants that fit her and her long hair was pulled into a ponytail.
Ryuko was up and wrapping Rumi in a tight embrace. "I am so sorry." She said as her voice broke a little. "If I hadn't suggested you accept that date this never would have happened."
Rumi returned the hug. "Not your fault he was a dick." She muttered before patting Ryuko on the back.
Izuku walked over and hand Rumi a cup of hot chocolate. "Here," Izuku said gesturing for her to take it. "Just the way you like with marshmallows and a dash of milk."
Rumi took it and gave Izuku a one-armed hug. "Thanks." She replied taking a seat at the table. After taking a few sips she looked around the table to see her sisters were giving her concerned looks. Ryuko was sitting next to her fidgeting with her hands. "Ok, I'll tell you all what happened and we can get rid of the elephant in the room." Rumi took another sip of her hot chocolate. After she finished telling everyone how she left Hawks' apartment after kicking him in the jewels (Izuku involuntarily crossed his legs), she finished off her drink and set it on the table.
"How do you want to handle it?" Nemuri asked her sister. "We can go there right now and arrest him."
"How?" Rumi asked looking at Nemuri. "I didn't take his phone or the wine glass." She rubbed her face in annoyance. "It will be his word against mine. If I accuse him of anything, then it will get out and it will turn back on me somehow."
Izuku sighed. "Hawks is the HPSC golden boy alongside Endeavor." He grumbled as she set his cup on the table. "They will turn this back on Rumi and say it was a date gone wrong. They could say that she is using this allegation to move up the rankings."
"This is bull-." Ryu started until her girlfriend elbowed her and pointed at the girls in the other room. "Ugh, sorry." She apologized before grounding her teeth. "So, what are her options?"
Kaina sighed and pinched the bright of her nose. "Izuku and Rumi are right." She said crossing her arms. "The HPSC is in bad shape. When Fugaku's arrest hits the news, they will lose a lot of public support." She pointed over to Rumi. "We could have all the evidence in the world and they would cover for Hawks and bury the case while dragging Rumi's name through the mud. That is how they operate."
"It won't help the fact that Nezu and I rejected her offer to join the HPSC and SPD together," Izuku told them as he let out a groan. "I would suggest we send Kaina and her team to pick him up and let them use Judgment Mode on him, but I'm sure that Hawks is long gone by now."
"Sounds about right." Nana agreed leaning back in her chair. "They will have him out of sight on a 'special assignment' for a while before they let him be seen by the public." Nana gave Rumi a slight grin. "He may have to have surgery to retrieve his nuts depending on how hard you kicked them."
"Hope I smashed them to pieces," Rumi grumbled as Ryuko gave her another steaming cup of hot chocolate. "Thanks, Sis."
"For now," Inko said getting everyone's attention, "We will let it be. When he shows his face again, Kaina and I will take care of it. I want all you girls to be careful. If they are willing to drug one of you, then they won't hesitate to drug all of you to get what they want."
"I can believe that I fell for it," Rumi growled at herself. "I should have just decked him the first time he approached me."
"They would have suspended you Rumi," Nemuri said placing a hand on Rumi's forearm. "They probably had a few plans to get you to hand it over or lose your license.
Ryu nodded her head. "So, what do we do if they come after us?" She asked the table. "I can't see them stopping now."
"They may have to go dark," Izuku replied placing his hands on the table. "With Fugaku arrested and all the case files we got our hands on during his arrest, they will be scrambling to keep themselves out of jail with President Tanaka on her warpath."
"That is something," Ryuko said wrapping an arm around Rumi. "I will call to upgrade our agency's security just to be safe."
They heard giggling as everyone looked over to see Kugo telling them stories. Yu was starting until Inko caught her.
"Aunt Rumi," Eri called out softly. "Want to come in here and tell stories too?" She gave her the puppy dog eyes and a slight pout when she asked.
"No stories, but I will cuddle with you," Rumi said with a tired smile. "Sound good?" She felt a little better at the excited response from the little unicorn.
Kugo looked over at Izuku. "I know you all were busy talking but can you tell me how there is a tiny red dragon in the room?"
That caused the room to break into some much need laughter as everyone made their way to the living room. Izuku took a spot near Kugo to introduce him to Fire Heart. The mood in the apartment lightened considerably.
Yu and Kugo were the first to leave since he had to work in the morning. As it started to get late Eri and Raphtalia zonked out not long after Yu left. Izuku and nana got the girls in bed and came back to find Rumi fighting sleep. Nana and Kaina set up a futon in the living room.
"I can make it back to my apartment." Rumi tried to argue weakly as her eyes were starting to droop.
Ryuko let her sister to the futon. "Tonight, we are going to sleep here and, in the morning, we can go home." She said
"We?" Rumi asked as she felt exhausted. She laid down on the futon as Izuku covered her with a blanket.
Ryuko laid down beside her. "I'm not leaving your side tonight unless I absolutely have to." She said getting comfortable on the edge of the futon.
"Same here," Izuku said mirroring Ryuko's actions. "This is what family is for."
Rumi tried to fight but dozed off before she think of something to say.
Nemuri and Ryu ducked out next leaving the apartment after some quiet goodbyes.
Nana lay on the couch keeping an eye on Ryuko, Rumi, and Izuku before drifting off to sleep.
After checking on them and covering Izuku and Ryuko with a blanket, Inko and Kaina retired to their room for the night. After the door was closed Inko took a steadying breath.
"Can you find him?" Inko asked trying to keep her voice steady.
Kaina nodded her head. "I have a few ideas on where they may hide him." She replied looking at her girlfriend. "What do you want me to do?"
"Find him," Inko said massaging her head. "I want to have a little chat about what he tried to do to my daughter." She gave Kaina a very chilling smirk. "Just a simple conversation."
Kaina snorted and started to get undressed. "I bet." she grabbed her night clothes and looked over at Inko. "Are you still good to make our trip to Fujiya Hospital tomorrow afternoon while the girls are at their sleepover?"
"Yes," Inko replied slipping into their bed. "It will be the best time to slip in while they are short-staffed." Her minds drift back to their time together so long ago. "I owe it to Rei to get her out of that hellhole and back with her children."
Kaina shimmied into a pair of shorts before giving Inko a knowing smile. "You want to rescue an old girlfriend." She teased with a wink. Inko had told her about all her serious past relationships. "I understand. Do you still have feelings for her?"
Inko hesitated for a moment before nodding her head. "Yes, Rei is very special to me." She said softly. "I love you Kaina-." Inko was cut off as Kaina crawled towards Inko on the bed and kissed her gently.
"Making sure babe," Kaina murmured cuddling close to Inko. "I love you Inko. You are my Queen." She straddled Inko's hips and wrapped her arms around her neck. "I'm good with sharing as long as she is ok with it."
"I love you too Kaina," Inko replied pulling Kaina into another kiss. "Are you sure about that?" She rested her hands on Kaina's hips.
"Being in a relationship with two hot cougars?" Kaina joked licking her lips. "Sounds like paradise to me." Kaina placed several kisses against Inko's neck. "Now does my Queen require some stress relief?"
Inko grinned as she flipped Kaina onto her back and pinned her arms above her head in one swift motion. "Yes." Inko purred nibbling on Kaina's ear. "Thank you, Kaina."
"My pleasure now," Kaina lift her head up enough to kiss Inko again. "Time for some much-needed fun before we go break into the hospital."
They were once again very grateful for the soundproofing.
Saturday
Rumi awoke the next morning groggy as she tried to sit up but felt something on her shoulders. She blinked a few times to see that Izuku was snuggled up on one side using her shoulder as a pillow and when she turned her head saw Ryuko was doing the same on her other shoulder. Rumi smiled and felt the love from her siblings. After some careful movements, Rumi was able to extract herself from the pile and spotted Nana sleeping on the couch. She moved quietly and spotted Inko and Kaina in the kitchen. Kaina was making breakfast while Inko was drinking coffee.
“How are you feeling dear?” Inko asked patting the empty chair next to her. “Any better?”
Rumi nodded her head slowly. "A bit better." She said resting her head on Inko's shoulder. She let out a content sigh as Inko scratched her ears. "Mad at myself for getting tricked so easily by that dick and his handler.”
"Honey," Inko said giving her daughter a sad look. "I know you are upset, but promise me you won't give up on dating." She said softly. "I told you last night that I had a lot of bad dates, right?" Inko waited for Rumi to nod her head. "They were horrible and I almost stopped trying altogether before I found someone that loved me. I found love several times over the years. I got two children I birthed and life decided to give me amazing daughters to bring into the family." She smiled as Rumi let a smile appear on her face. "You'll find someone one day that will treat you like you're the most important person in the world."
“You really think so Mom?” Rumi asked as she watched Inko turn to stare at Kaina as she cooked. “You think I can find someone like that?”
"Call it a hunch," Inko said eyes twinkling. "You are too amazing for someone to pass up. Keigo was anidiot. Someone will see how special you are.”
Rumi nodded her head. “Can I stay like this for a bit?” She asked enjoying the feeling of having her ears scratched.
"Sure, thing honey," Inko said getting comfortable and sending a wink at Kaina after she came to check on them.
They stay like that until Rumi heard the pattering of little feet and looked up to see Eri and Raphtalia stumbling into the room. Eri made her over to Rumi and held up her arms. “Hug.” The little unicorn mumbled softly.
“Morning Eri.’ Rumi said hugging the little girl. “How are you this morning?”
“M’fine," Eri said rubbing her eyes. "Wanted to make you feel better."
"Thank Eri," Rumi said as Raphtalia pouted until she got picked up by Rumi as well. "Morning, Raphtalia.”
Raphtalia nodded her head as she wrapped her arms around Rumi’s neck. “Want to make Aunt Rumi happy.” She said sleepily.
"I appreciate it kiddo," Rumi replied kissing both of her nieces on the forehead. "I'm feeling better thanks."
“Girls,” Inko said beaming at the sight in front of her. “Why don’t you go wake up your Papa and your Aunts so we can have breakfast.”
Both girls became wide awake in an instant and hurried down to run for the living room. the sounds of groaning and excited voices fill the apartment. Rumi, Inko, and Kaina started laughing as they heard the grumbles.
After everyone was up and sitting at the table, Kaina brought breakfast to the table and everybody dug in. Izuku looked over at his daughters. "Remember to get your stuff packed for your sleepover tonight."
He told them as he ate his breakfast. "Know what you want to bring besides your clothes and sleeping bags?"
"I have an idea," Raphtalia said focusing more on her food than anything else.
Eri swallowed the food in her mouth before looking at Izuku. “Can you help me after breakfast?” She asked getting a bit shy. “I’m not sure what I need to take.”
Izuku smiled and ruffled Eri’s hair. “Sure thing.” He said giving her a wink. “Are you going to be ok staying the night?” Izuku asked Eri and Raphtalia. This would be their first time staying a night away from the apartment. Izuku knew he was being overprotective, but he couldn't help it.
"I think so," Eri said setting her fork down. "Raphtalia said she would help me if I get scared."
"It's what a big sister does." Raphtalia said beaming at Eri. "It sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun."
The table couldn’t help but smile at the adorable girls.
Inko looked around the table. “What are your plans for the day?” she asked the table.
Nana finished her breakfast. “Well if bunny here is up to it, I am still good to spar with her.” She said sending a teasing grin to Rumi. “Unless you want to back out.”
Rumi smirked back. “I’m good to make you regret calling my bunny.” She told Nana as she cracked her knuckles. “Maybe I can teach my Older Sister something.” Rumi saw Nana’s eye twitch at being called older.
Ryuko sighed. “Looks like I will have to make sure they don’t destroy the place.” She gave both Rumi and Nana a look. “I know this is going to escalate but please don’t wreck our new agency please.”
“No promises.” Rumi and Nana said at the same time before glaring at one another.
Inko shook her head. “Nothing that requires an ER visit please.” She said in a tone that cause Rumi, Nana, Ryuko, and Izuku to shudder. “Now, after we drop the girls off Kain and I are going out on a date.” She smiled. “What are your plans Izuku?”
"Well, I don have any at the moment," Izuku replied honestly. "My girlfriends are having an all-girls sleepover with most of the other girls in the hero course classes minus a few. Momo also invited Himiko and Camie.” He shrugged his shoulder. I may reach out to the guys and see if they have any plans.”
Inko smiled. "Glad to see you're making more friends." She said starting to pick up the dirty dishes. "Go get their bags packed for their sleepover and reach out to your friends.”
Rumi, Ryuko, and Nana left a bit later to go have their sparring session. Izuku got both girls packed and reached out to the guys and Denki and Hitoshi replied saying they were free to hang out later. Izuku made sure both Eri and Raphtalia had everything they need. Izuku added a list of numbers in case they needed anything in both of their bags. They relaxed in the living room until it was time to drop them off at their sleepover. After arriving Izuku grabbed their sleeping bags while both girls grabbed their backpacks. As they got closer to the door, Satsuki opened the door and ran out to greet them.
“Eri! Raphtalia! Wibbit!” Satsuki squealed with delight as she hugged them both. “You are the first ones here come on let’s go play!”
"Ok!" Raphtalia said tuning around and hugging Izuku tight. "Love you, Papa!"
Izuku returned the hug. “Love you too Raphtalia.” He said trying not to cry. “Have fun and look after your sister for me.” He scratched his daughter behind the ear. “Go have fun.”
Eri stepped forward and hugged Izuku just as tight. "Love you, Papa.' Eri said quietly.
"Love you too Eri," Izuku said eyes starting to sparkle with unshed tears. "Go have fun and remember I am a phone call away if you need me."
Eri nodded her head. "I will. See you tomorrow Papa." She said smiling brightly and running off into the house with Satsuki and Raphtalia.
Tsu walk out and gave Izuku a kind smile. "We'll look out for them. Kero" She said patting Izuku on the shoulder. “Are you ok?
Izuku nodded his head as tears ran down his face. “Thought I was ready for them to have their first sleepover." He wiped his eyes with a chuckle. "I'm being silly."
Inko hugged her son. "Not silly." She said gently. "It's hard to watch your children grow up. You are a good father."
Kaine hugged him as well. "What your Mom said." She whispered. "Come on let's get going before the girls see you crying."
Izuku nodded his head. "Thank you for looking after them. Mom will be here to pick them up tomorrow." He said waving at Kinoko who was standing in the doorway. "Call me if you need anything I left my cell number in both their bags."
Tsu giggled slightly. "Go. Kero." She said pushing him lightly. "We got this."
Izuku laughed and got back into the car as he sighed on the drive to the arcade. He got there a bit early and hugged Inko and Kaina from the back seat. "Enjoy your date." He said getting out of the car. "See you guys tonight."
"Will do Honey, have fun with your friends," Inko said waving at her son.
Kain gave him a wink. “I’ll take good care of her.” She said with a grin. “Have fun bunny.”
Izuku rolled his eyes as they drove off and he waited for Denki and Hitoshi to arrive.
Meanwhile in an undisclosed location.
Tomura groaned as his mind finally started to clear. He had been delirious from the pain. The last thing he remembered clearly was that green-haired bastard shooting him in the dick and costing him two fingers. He was in excruciating pain and then it gets fuzzy. He remembered being strapped to a gurney as the intense pain racked his body. He would pass out from the pain and awaken sometime later to more pain. The cycle repeated over and over again. He wasn't sure how long he had been strapped to the gurney, but it all seemed to blur together.
Tomura lifted his head to see he was on a bed covered in a dark sheet. He lifted up his wrists to find they were chaffed from the straps. He sat up and looked around to see he was in an unknown room. He looked at his repaired hands and let out a sigh of relief. Tomura suddenly remembered and shoved a hand down his pants and laughed to find his bits were back.
"Awake less than a minute and already the monkey reaches for his tool." A female voice said from the shadows. Scorpina walked forward to stand at the foot of his bed. "Took you long enough for you to wake up. I don't like being kept waiting monkey."
Tomura sneered at the woman. "What do you want." He spat out. He removed the covers on the bed and stood up. "I made a deal with you and All Might still alive."
Scorpina just crossed her arms and smiled. "True." She said preparing to snap her fingers. "I won you now. You will address me as Mistress when you speak to me from now on."
Tomura snorted. "Screw you," he replied splashing cold water on his face. he looked in the mirror and noted the metal collar around his neck. "What is this?" he tried to remove it but could find the latch. He looked closer to see the scorpion engrave on a circular pendant. The next thing Tomura knew, after hearing Scorpina snap her fingers was pain.
He screamed as pain wracked his entire body. After what seemed like an eternity the pain stopped and Tomura was panting on the ground. He shakily rose his head. "Wha-at w-was th-a-at.' He stuttered out as his body twitch involuntarily from the immense pain.
"I punished a disobedient servant," Scorpina said towering over him. "You remember our deal? I help you and you would pay any price." She knelt down and yanked Tomura's head painfully up by his hair to look at her. "Your Master and I reached a deal. I own you now." Her smile grew brighter as Tomura's face went paler. "Now, get up and follow me to your new room." She released her grip on his hair and stood up.
Tomura stumbled to his feet and accidentally touch the gurney near him to stand up with all five fingers. He froze when nothing happened. "Where is my Quirk?" He bellowed as he tried his other hand before starting to panic.
Scorpina sighed in annoyance. "Your Master removed it to give you a healing Quirk." She explained getting annoyed with his childish behavior. "After you were done with it, he removed it and I told him to hold off on giving your back."
“WHY!” Tomura roared preparing to lunge at her when with a snap of her fingers sent him writhing to the floor.
"Stupid monkey," Scorpina said with a snarl. "I am your mistress and you will bow before me or suffer." She snapped her fingers again to stop Tomura's pain. "Kneel. You will address me as Mistress."
Tomura managed to get into a kneeling position shaking like a leaf. "Yes, Mistress." He spat that last words out giving her a defiant look.
"It can use some work," Scorpina told him with a sneer. "Stand up and follow."
Tomura resisted the urge to make a snide comment, but thought better of it and ambled behind Scorpina. After a short walk, she opened the door and pointed inside the room. He walked in and started looking around. The room was massive and fit for a queen. It was full of various books, gems, cash, and other valuable items. "What is this place…Mistress." Tomura added at the end to keep from getting punished again.
"The monkey can be taught," Scorpina said sarcastically. Before sitting on the edge of a massive luxurious bed. "This is my room. You will tend to me as my servant." She pointed to a corner in the room. "That is your bed."
Tomura followed her finger to find an oversized dog bed and a ratty-looking blanket. "You have to be fucking joking." He scoffed and looked at Scorpina. "It this a joke right Mistress?" He made sure to add that.
"I'm not joking," Scorpina said grinning at her new servant. "Right now, you are lower than dirt on the bottom of my boots. The more you make me happy the more privileges I will grant you." She pressed her fingers together and narrowed her eyes. "Anger me and I will make you suffer. Understand."
Tomura grit his teeth and slowly nodded his head. “I understand Mistress.” He said slowly trying not to lose his temper. He could only hope that Sensei would find a way to free him.
"Good boy," Scorpina said with a nod of her head. "Now starting today, I will be training you to fight properly. She supposed a sword and handed it to Tomura. "Take it."
Tomura gripped the white cloth-wrapped handle of a curved silver sword with a red orb just above the handle. The back of the sword had a tooth-like serrated edge to it Tomura felt power radiating up his arm and his eyes started glowing a dark green. "What is this Mistress?" He said looking over every inch of the sword.
Scorpina had a feral grin on her face at how easy Tomura was making this. "It is a powerful weapon. It is called the Sword of Darkness." She explained walking around him as he looked at the new weapon. "It is my gift to you. I will train you personally, so you may destroy the boy who humiliated you." She watched his ration and placed a hand on his shoulder. “I have another gift for you but you have to earn it.” She held out a dark green crystal in front of him that was pulsing with malevolence. “Work hard and I shall reward you with this.”
“Yes, Mistress,” Tomura said looking at Scorpina. “I will kill that brat.”
"Good," Scorpina replied summoning her sword to her hand. "Training starts now." She teleported them to a training area. 'Another pawn for me to use.' Scorpina thought to herself as she start to run him through the basics. 'Humans are so easy to manipulate.'
Tokyo.
Fujiya Hospital was quiet that afternoon as the security guard in the control room was snoring away. The was a blur on the camera for a few moments before it went back to normal.
Inko slide around the corner as she sent another pulse from the device in her hand at the next camera to scramble it. She tapped her chameleon band to change her appearance before making her way towards the records room and rolled her eyes at the easy security on the door. A few minutes later she sent another static burst out and slid inside the room. She tapped her ear. "I'm in," Inko whispered as she moved to the file cabinets. "Any luck spotting her room?"
“Negative. Still sweeping the windows, but nothing yet.”
“Copy that.’ Inko replied scanning through the files as fast as she could. She knew the Endeavor would not risk anyone finding out his wife was locked away. That would raise questions that he didn’t want to answer. So Inko focused on Rei’s maiden name Shimo but came up empty. "Nothing under Todoroki or her maiden name Shimo.” Inko told Kaina with a sigh. “I guess Endeavor is not a complete idiot.”
"Well, he has money to make people think for him. I'm thinking it's an HPSC cover-up job."
“I am thinking so too.” Inko opened another file of drawers to scan through them. “Any suggestions?”
“I do actually. There is an old trick the old timers used. The file needed to be there just in case an investigation was started. They wouldn’t remove the file, just misplaced it and it wasn’t on their person if they got caught breaking in. Go to the last file cabinet, bottom shelf it should be in the very back.”
Inko hurried over and reached for the last file with a smile “Bingo.” She opened the file and scanned for her room assignment. “Room 315. According to the file she has been there since she was admitted.”
“Scanning the 3rd-floor windows now.
Inko girt her teeth at the list of drugs they had her on. "Jesus, she has been drugged to the gills and nearing dangerous levels." She sighed as she flipped to the next page. "They have two different suppression devices on her."
“I never liked Endeavor, but now I want to shoot out his kneecaps.”
“Patients dear.” She slid the file under her shirt and made her way to the door. “Any luck?” She asked Kaina while moving out of the room like a shadow disrupting every camera she could find.
“One sec.”
Inko moved towards the stairwell and after making sure the cameras were taken care of and the stairwell was clear, she moved inside slowly making her way to the third floor.
“Got her. She just opened her curtains. She looks a bit out of it.”
Inko sighed. “Not surprised. I'll have to move quickly." She reached the door and peeked through the window. After seeing the coast was clear, she opened the door and slipped inside. She glanced around and spotted the staff at the nurse's station working on paperwork. Inko moved quickly and quietly down the hall and found room 315. After a quick scan of the door, she disabled the door alarm and picked the lock.
Inko entered the room and disabled the camera inside the room. She spotted a depressed-looking Rei sitting on the edge of the bed staring at the floor. Inko could see a few children's drawings on the walls but the room was very spartan.
"Come to drug me again," Rei said sounding very hallow. "Just do it and leave."
"Not here for that my Snow Princess," Inko said softly taking a step closer to Rei. "I've come to rescue you." She tapped her chameleon band and let her appearance shift back to her normal appearance. "Hey, stranger."
Rei's head snapped up and gasped in shock. "I-Inko?" She asked trembling. "Is that really you? Please tell me you're not another dream." Rei felt tears running down her face.
Inko walked over and placed a gentle hand on Rei’s cheek before pressing a loving kiss on her lips. “It’s really me,” She whispered while wiping away Rei’s tears. “I looked for you for so long.”
Rei latched on to her and started crying. "I missed you so much." She cried into Inko's shirt. "I knew you would find me."
“Well you gave me the nickname Inko and I cherish that name.” She told Rei as while rubbing circles on the crying woman’s back. “Now, I getting you out of here.” She looked around the room. “Is there anything you want to take with us?”
Rei blinked a few times before looking around the room and moved quickly to the pictures on the wall and grabbed a few gifts from her children. "Not much to pack," Rei said setting everything inside a pillowcase.
“How are we looking Kaina?” Inko asked tapping her ear.
“Nurses are getting up from the station. Time to go.”
Inko removed both quirk suppressors on Rei with ease and grabbed her pillowcase. "Ready?"
Rei gave her a confused look. “How are we getting out of here? Who is Kaina”
Inko gave her a wink. "Like this and you'll see." She tapped her ear again. "DECA three to teleport to my apartment please?"
“Affirmative.”
A moment later Inko and Rei vanished from the room while Kaina vanished from a rooftop across from the hospital.
When the staff arrived later to find her missing from her room, they sounded the alarm. When they couldn't find a trace of her, they were forced to call Endeavor who was extremely unhappy.
Endeavor seethed as he shattered his phone in his office. He stormed out of the office and made a straight shot for Nero's office. He knew that it would take some leverage to keep it from being investigated. He had lost his masterpiece because of Nezu and now he had lost his only leverage of his children. He would need to find something else to bend Shoto back to his will.
Rei blinked a few times before she looked around at her new surroundings. "What the. Where am I?" Rei asked as she noticed another woman in the room. "Are you Kaina or DECA?"
“I’m Kaina.” The woman replied with a smile and a wave. “Nice to see you Rei. Inko told me a lot about you.”
“Oh?” Rei looked at Inko with a smile. “Nice to know you still say nice things about me after all this time.”
Inko laughed as she led Rei to the couch. "Let me give you a quick check-up. I am surprised you're doing alright after all the drugs listed in your file." Inko set said file on the coffee table in front of them. "I'm worried about all those being mixed together affecting your health."
Rei snorted. "Oh, that." She said reaching into her pocket and pulling out a handful of pills. "I've been dealing with lazy staff members for years. I learn how to fake swallowing my pills and just act lethargic until they leave me alone. I've been trying to get those blasted suppressors off for a while to make my escape."
"Nice," Kaina said a bit impressed. "How many escape attempts have you made so far?"
Rei just shrugged. "I lost count." She told them leaning back on the couch. "So, how is it, you haven't aged a day and how did you teleport me out of there when I know your quirk is Telekinesis."
Kaina smirked as she went to get them some drinks.
Inko went to get a familiar sphere and sat down next to her. “It’s a long story.” She said gesturing to the sphere. “Save all your questions until the end.”
Rei nodded her head. “How long can it be?” She asked looking at the sphere with a curious look on her face.
Izuku was having a good time hanging out with Denki and Hitoshi. They started at the Arcade before heading to catch a movie that looked good. As the day went on Denki started opening up a bit more.
“Can I ask you guys a question?” Denki asked when they refilled their drinks before leaving the theater.
"Shoot," Hitoshi said taking a sip of his drink.
Izuku nodded his head. “Sure, what's up?”
"Can I get some dating advice from you guys?" Denki asked looking a bit shy. "I know you guys have been dating your girls for a while and I want some advice for making Ibara happy."
Hitoshi and Izuku chucked before nodding their heads.
"Sure," Hitoshi said gently patting Denki on the back. “We’ll help you out.”
Izuku mirrored Hitoshi’s actions. "Come on let's go find somewhere to chat for a bit."
Rei blinked her eyes a few times before pinching her arm. "Ok, not a dream." She muttered looking at Inko as she turn off her sphere. "So, I slept with an alien Queen multiple times before being forced to marry Enji.”
“Know that feeling.” Kaina beamed at Inko. “She's telling truth.”
"Guess that means I was with a cougar back then," Rei said smirking as she laid her head on Inko's shoulder remembering the best days of her life. "So, what happens now? I can't go outside without Enji having his men hunting for me.”
“I send Nezu a message and we will take care of it. Nezu offered me something that I am planning on accepting along with my Nursing duties at UA and I think I can get you a job if you are interested.” Inko said comforting Rei as she gestured for Kaina to join them on the couch. “Until then you can stay here. It will be a bit crowded with Nana, Izuku, and my granddaughters.”
"Sound like a house full," Rei said with a giggle. “Tell me about this offer in a bit.” She looked around the apartment. “From what you told me of your son he sounds like a kind boy.” She looked around I can take the floor if that makes it easier.”
"Nope," Kaina said with a smirk. "You are staying in our bed." She gave Rei a wink. "I told Inko that I was good with sharing her with you.”
Rei blinked a few times before smiling. "Well, I won’t say no to sharing a bed with Inko again." She kissed Inko on the cheek. "I'd like to get to know my other partner better. How about a date sometime just you and me?" She offered Kaina.
“I’m good with it.” She leaned over and stole a kiss from Rei. “Now we have an apartment to ourselves. What do we do with it?” Kaina asked with a wink at Rei and Inko. “How about we get to know each other a bit now?”
Rei giggled before pulling Kaina into a kiss before moving over to Inko to kiss her as well. “I can think of a few ideas.” She said looking at Inko and Kaina. “I’ve been in that hellhole for a very long time.”
Inko and Kaina shared a look before they lunged forward together. Inko captured Rei’s lips with a searing kiss and gripped Rei’s hair. Kaina started kissing the side of Rei’s neck and start fondling Rei’s breast with her hand.
Rei was a moaning mess as she slid her hands down Inko and Kaina's pants and smirked when both jumped from her icy touch.
Inko and Kaina redoubled their efforts as Rei started moaning louder as Kaina left a bit mark and Inko used her quirk to tease Rei’s clit through her clothing. They were all building to their mutual climax. Soon the Trio cried out together as they came at the same time.
Izuku had waved at his friends as he started heading home. He stopped by and grabbed a couple of pizzas and drinks to make sure there was dinner for him and both of his moms. "Hope Mom and Mama Kai are in a mood for pizza.” He said walking up the stairs to the apartment. He unlocked the door and walked inside as three female cries reached his ears. He looked to see his mama Kai, his mother, and a white-haired woman in a compromising position on the couch. "Not again!" Izuku groaned as he closed his eyes.
Inko, Rei, and Kaina all turned to look at Izuku closing the door to the apartment and keeping his back to them. The trio was very embarrassed. They took a moment to make themselves presentable again.
"Sorry, Izuku." Inko apologies face a bright red. "We got a bit carried away."
Izuku snorted. "I kind of figured that." He said moving towards the kitchen table. "Is this going to be a thing mom? I come home in a compromising position with a new partner?"
Inko gave her son a wicked grin. "Sweetheart, who do you think gave your ability to attract beautiful women from? It sure as hell wasn't your father." She said kissing Rei once more. “Izuku this is Rei. She is an old flame of mind that we rescued.”
Izuku waved at Rei. “Nice to meet you.” He said looking a bit uncomfortable. “How did you and my Mom meet?”
Rei giggled. "Well, I was studying for my final exams. I was homeschooled and your Mom was hired to make sure I passed." She laid her head on Inko’s shoulder. “As time went by I fell for her and she was my first and best lover.”
Izuku facepalmed. "More than I needed to know."
"I fell in love with your Mom and started calling her Inko as a nickname," Rei said with a sigh. It was the best months of my life."
“I was going by Inkota at that point.: Inko explained with a smile. “I like it so much I used it when I changed my name again.”
“Why didn’t you marry Inko back then?” Kaina asked out of curiosity.
"My parents had signed an unbreakable Marriage contract when I was 15," Rei explained with a sigh. "The penalties were very stringent. I was to be married on my 19th birthday at my future husband's request."
Izuku winced at that. "I'm sorry." He said taking a seat in the chair.
"Well, your Mom would check up on me from time to time after I got married. Right up until I was locked away by my husband."
"Who is your husband?" Izuku asked as he had a good idea, but didn't want to make an assumption.
Rei let out a sigh. “Enji Todoroki.” She said softly.
“You’re Shoto’s Mom!” Izuku gasped in surprise.
Rei beamed at him. “You know my son?” She asked getting a little excited. “Are you friends?”
"Starting too," Izuku said smiling. "We exchanged numbers yesterday." He pointed to the table. "How about we talk more over dinner."
Kaina nodded her head. "Sounds good." She said getting up and throwing her arm around Izuku's shoulder.
Inko and Rei followed a minute later after flipping the couch cushions.
Later on, Nana got back from her day with Rumi and Ryuko and was confused about the new guest in the house. After getting filled in she stared laughing at them being caught by Izuku. As the night wore on They called it a night. Inko had Kaina and Rei keep Nana busy while she cleaned the couch cushions before retiring to their room.
Nana slept on the couch none the wiser.
Inko locked her bedroom door and Kaina whispered something in her ear and nodded. They waited for Rei to get changed into some loaned clothes before they pushed her onto the bed and grinned down at her and pinned her to the bed.
"No interruptions this time," Inko said nibbling on Rei's ear. "You are trapped my little Snow Princess.
Kaina was nibbling on Rei's neck. "You need a good lay and we are the ones to do it."
Rei just surrender as they double-teamed her. "Oh god." She moaned as she felt their hands gliding over her body.
Sunday
Pony was looking at her watch as she stood outside the restaurant. She had gotten to the restaurant a little early. She had gone with a nice shirt and a pair of jeans that the other girls said looked amazing on her. She had let Mina and Toru do her make-up before Momo had her driver bring her here. She knew she owed her Aunt big time for this favor, but she needed this. She spotted her boyfriend walking up to her and he was dressed in a nice shirt and jeans. She loved how his leather jacket fit him.
"Happy Birthday," Izuku said walking up and pulling Pony into a deep kiss. "Ready for your party later?”
Pony giggled and nuzzled against his chest. “Thank Izu and yes I can’t wait for my party.”
Izuku led Pony into the nice American-themed restaurant and the waiter brought them to a private table. After taking their drink orders and their menu's "Pick what you want Birthday girl." He said with a wink.
Pony laughed and looked over the menu. "Oh, those steaks look so good." She said closing her menu. "I know what I am getting."
Izuku glanced over the menu and closed it. “Whatever you want Pony.” He said reaching over to hold her hand. “I want your birthday to be special.”
“It already is Izu.” Pony replied softly. “Are you going to give me a hint on my present?” She blew Izuku a kiss. “Please?”
Izu chucked before leaning forward to kiss the back of her hand. “Nope.” He said with a grin. “I know you will love it.”
Pont gave him a cute pout before giggling again. “It was worth a try.” She said smiling at him.
“Where do you want to go after lunch?” Izuku asked drawing a heart on the back of Pony’s hand.
Pony felt her cheeks warm up and bit as she nodded her head. “I have a place in mind, but I want it to be a surprise.” She was grateful that Izuku could not hear how fast her heart was beating.
“Ok,” Izuku said leaning over to kiss the back of her hand. “Whatever the birthday girl wants.”
After placing their orders, they fell into a comfortable conversation about different shows Pony had got him watching. Pony ordered a massive steak and the waiter gave Pony a strange look. When Pony finished the entire plate, the Waiter was completely shocked. Izuku could help but laugh at the waiter after finishing his own steak.
Izuku had the staff sing Happy Birthday to her as they shared her dessert. After paying for lunch, Izuku offered Pony his arm and walked her out of the restaurant.
“Where to now?” Izuku asked looking at Pony for where they were off to next.
Pony swallowed hard before leading him down the sidewalk. “It’s not too far from here.” She said laying her head against his shoulder.
After walking for about 10 minutes Pony pointed ahead of them. "There." She told him feeling her face turn a bright red.
Izuku froze as he saw the building she was pointing at. A Love Hotel. “P-Pony?” He stuttered looking at his girlfriend.
“Please?” Pony asked looking up at him. “This is what I want for my birthday.”
Izuku slowly nodded his head. “How are we going to get a room?” He asked knowing that Pony had this planned for a while.
“Already taken care of.” Pony said brightly pulling him towards the building. “Let me do all the talking.”
As Pony pulled Izuku into the hotel lobby, they walked up to the front desk as Pony leaned against Izuku’s arm. The lady at the counter looked up with a bored expression. Pony knew it was because she and Izuku looked too young to be in the hotel.
"Can I help you?" The woman asked in a bored voice.
Pony pulled out her phone and showed the woman an email on her phone. “Here is the confirmation number.” She said making a mental note to send her Aunt Cathy a thank you for helping her set this up for her birthday.
The woman put the confirmation number in and after a moment later handed Pony a key card. "Everything has been paid up for the next 3 hours. Condoms are in the room and if you go over your time limit You will be charged for another hour. Room 404."
"Thank you," Pony said dragging Izuku towards the elevators as he was still a bit red-faced.
“That girl is going to eat that poor boy alive.” The woman said going back to reading on her phone to alleviate the bored that was her job.
Izuku swallowed as Pony opened the door to their room and followed her inside. The room was nice with a king-size bed with red sheet on it. He could see into the bathroom as he walked inside to see a large enclosed shower. "T-This is pretty nice," Izuku said feeling nervous. "How did you get a room anyway?” He slid his jacket off and hung it on a nearby hook.
Pony laughed slightly as she moved closer to him. “I called in a huge favor with my Aunt Cathy,” Pony said pulling him toward the bed. “She paid for it with her credit card and I promised to pay her back later." She guided him to sit at the foot of the bed. "Now relax." She set a time on her phone for 2 and half hours. They would give them time to shower and get dressed before they had to check out.
"I'm trying," Izuku said squeezing Pony's hand. "I just don't want to disappoint you." He told her honestly. He knew that Mei was smiling after their time together, but he wasn’t sure about what the other girls would expect from him. He slid off his jacket and tossed it on the bed to cool down.
Pony pulled him into a quick kiss and pulled off Izuku's shirt to admire his muscular chest. "Just follow your instincts." She said taking a step back. Pony removed her top to show her skimpy black bra. “I know they aren’t big like the others.” Pony took off her jeans while she walked over to Izuku and tossed her bra on the floor. She was wearing a pair of black panties as she straddled his lap.
Izuku placed a tender kiss on her lips and placed his left hand on her hip and the right on her breast and started slowly fondling it. “They are perfect, just like you.” He said as Pony moaned softly at his ministrations. Izuku started to slowly kiss his way across her cheek and down her neck.
"Oh, Izu," Pony moaned as she started to grind against him. She could feel him through his pants. "Just like that." She could feel herself getting wet.
Izuku sild his hand off her hip and found the base of her tail. He felt her stiffen as she started to stroke her tail. He was giving her a hickey on the right side of her neck just above her shoulder. His fingers got caught a knot in her tail and he gave it a little tug to remove it that cause her to gasp. “Did I hurt you?” He asked stopping everything to check on her.
“Do it again,” Pony said as her eyes darkening with lust. “Pull my tail again please.” She told him grinding a bit harder against him.
Izuku hesitated but did as she requested and gave her tail another tug.
Pony gasped as she arched her back. "Yes, just like that!" She cried as she shoved her left nipple into Izuku's mouth. "Suck on it please." She was in heaven as Izuku sucked and licked her nipple and the tugs on her tail felt amazing to her. Her moan get louder when Izuku accidentally bit down slightly and gave her tail a harder tug at the same time. "Oooh. IZUKU!” She came soaking her panties and looked deep into her boyfriend’s eyes with a smile on her face before mashing her lips against his.
Pony pulled back panting and quickly slid off his lap to take off her ruined panties showing him her shaved mound. She knew that her panties were soaked, but she didn’t care at the moment. “I need to return the favor Izu.” Pony said kneeling in between his legs. She had heard Mei talk about her time with Izuku and wanted to see it for herself.
Izuku stood up and unbuckled his belt as Pony pulled them down. "Are you sure Pony?" He asked as she hooked her fingers inside the waistband of his underwear.
"Completely." Pony said pulling down his boxers and marveled at his cock. "It's big like Texas." She made him sit back down on the edge bed and started to stroke him slowly. "I've been dreaming of this for a while." She continued to stroke him and started to lick her way up his shaft until she reached the tip. She knew from her toys he was a little over 7 inches. She took her free hand and started to drag her nails along Izuku’s inner thigh. She continues to lick his shaft and tease the tip of his cock with her tongue.
Izuku gasped as are her actions and had a tight grip on the bed sheets. "Pony," He moaned as he felt her tongue slow move up his shaft. He was at her mercy. "That feels so good." Izuku looked down to see Pony kiss the tip of his cock before stopping. “What wrong?” He asked missing her hand and tongue.
"Something special." Pony said taking both of his hands and placing them on her horns. "I am going to blow you and you going to control the speed. I'll release my horns if I need to stop." Without another word, she slowly started to suck his cock. She started at the tip and slowly bopped her head back and forth. With each bop, she slowly moved further down his cock. Pony was looking up at him as she made it further and further down his cock.
“God, Pony” Izuku moaned as he pulled her horns a little to make her go faster. “Are y-you sure this is ok? Tap my leg twice for yes, once for no.” He asked her. Izuku felt her tap his thigh twice and nodded his head. “Faster?” He got another two taps on his leg, he started pulling her horns faster. Every so often Pony would tap his leg to tell him to go faster. He could feel himself getting close. “Pony, I’m almost there.”
Pony bobbed faster as she was having the time of her life. This had been a fantasy of hers and Pony had been fingering herself the entire time. She was close as well. She tap his leg twice more and started fondling his balls with her free hand.
“Cumming!” Izuku cried out. He pulled her forward until her nose was against his pelvis. He was lost in his own pleasure. He released her horns and leaned back as he felt Pony suck hard as she released his cock. “You ok Pony?”
Pony swallowed and licked her lips. “That was better than ok.” She said rising to her hooves. “That was amazing Izuku.” She went over to get them both a glass of water.
Izuku watched her walk away staring at her ass. He watched her hips and tail swaying with each step. "That was amazing Pony," Izuku said feeling something stirring inside him.
Pony was grinning as she walked back to hand him the glass. “Drink up,” She said sitting beside him. “We have time for some more fun.” Pony drank her water before she leaned against his shoulder.
“Do you want me to return the favor?” Izuku asked taking a drink of water. He moved the glass to his left hand to start running his hand through Pony’s hair.
“Not today. I have something in mind for that.” Pony said setting her cup on the floor. “I want to move up to the main event.” She took the glass from Izuku and set it on the floor as well. She got off the bed and grabbed a condom from the nightstand and came back over to stroke Izuku hard. Pony opened the condom wrapper with her teeth and slid it on his cock.
Izuku nodded his head. "How do you want to do this?" He asked wanting to let her pick how to proceed. His breath hitched as Pony continued to stroke him.
Pony looked at him and winked. She got on the bed to face him on her hands and knees. "I want you to take me from behind Izuku." She purred at him. "I want you to be able to see me as you do."
Izuku looked to see she was in front of the mirror across from the bed. "If that's what you want," Izuku said as he crawled atop the bed and moved directly behind her. "Are you ready Pony?"
Pony looked over her shoulder. “Yes, Take me Izuku.” She said blowing him a kiss. “Stick it in me already!” She wiggled her hips back and forth to entice him. “Please. Breed me like a broodmare!”
Izuku moved her tail out of the way and held on with one hand as he lined himself up with the other. He pressed the tip against her wet folds and slowly started to push into her. He looked in the mirrors to see the look of pleasure cross Pony’s face. He placed his free hand on her hip as he slid further inside Pony.”
“Just shove it in already!” Pony begged as she gripped the sheets with her hands.
Izuku took a deep breath and thrusted the rest of the way in. He moaned as he felt Pony’s pussy clench tightly around his cock. “Gods.” He said tightening his grip on her hip and tail. “So tight.”
“Hurry, Izuku!’ Pony wined wiggling her hips. “Fuck me now!”
Izuku looked at her reflection in the mirror. “As you wish.” He started off with long slow thrusts into her and he gave Pony’s tail a slight tug after each thrust inside her. He heard Pony’s moaning grow louder and louder as he started to slowly speed up his thrusts and yanked her tail in perfect synch. He felt her cum at one point. “Pony!” Izuku called out to her. He looked in the mirror to see she was having the time of her life.
“HARDER DADDY! Pony screamed as she started pushing herself backwards to meet his thrusts. “PLEASE DADDY HARDER!” She switched to English while feeling the heat in her pussy continued to grow with each thrust she felt. With each yank of her tail, it spurred her on and sent her over the edge. She came several times as it grew more intense. “DON’T STOP!”
Izuku was spurred on by her words and thrusted harder into her and her tail was pulled taut with each hard thrust inwards. She felt himself getting close. "Close!” He gritted out as he was a man on a mission. Pony arms gave out and her top half fell to her elbows on the mattress. The change in angle allowed his cock to reach deeper inside her as he continued thrusting into her.
Izuku could feel he was at his limit. “I’m Cumming!" He growled out as bottomed out one last time. Izuku panted as she had to extend his hands as he fell forward. He was still hovering over Pony.
"I'M CUMMING TOO!" Pony shrieked as she soaked the bed from the world-shattering orgasm she just experienced. Pony rated it as the best orgasm in her entire life. She could feel he was still inside her. "That. Was Incredible." She said gasping for breath.
Izuku nodded his head. “I. Agree.” He said slowly pulling out of her. He fell to the bed beside too tired to take the full condom off. “I love you Pony.”
Pony's heart skipped a beat as she shifted her tired body slowly to cuddle up beside him. "I love you too Izuku." She said kissing his shoulder. "I need to rest for a bit."
“Same,” Izuku said wrapping an arm around her. “Daddy?” He asked looking at his girlfriend.
Pony flushed a dark red as placed a hand over her face. “I’m sorry. It’s something that always interested me and just felt right.” Pony tried to explain.
"If it makes you happy, you can call me Daddy when we're like this," Izuku said placing a kiss atop her head.
Pony smiled as she kissed his chest. “Thank you, Daddy.” She felt her eyes get heavy. “I set an alarm. Can we take a nap?”
"Sounds good to me." Izuku threw a sheet over them and held her close. "Happy Birthday Pony."
"Thanks, Daddy." Pony murmured as she closed her eyes."
They drifted off to sleep holding one another and with smiles on their face.
When Pony's alarm went off they both groaned. Pony felt tender, but couldn't have been happier. She walked slowly to the shower and turned on the hot water. Pony was glad that her mother was not coming to visit today. Pony wasn't sure she could walk without a limp right now. She stepped into the shower and let the hot water run over her. She smiled when she felt Izuku's arm around her chest. "Decided to join me?" She purred feeling Izuku cup her breasts.
Izuku chuckled as he kiss the back of Pony’s neck. “Thought you were lonely.” He whispered in her ear. He started giving Pony’s breasts a gentle squeeze.
Pony shuddered and swallowed a moan. "We don't have time for more fun." She whimpered she turned around to see Izuku's hair was out of its ponytail and the water cascaded over him.
Izuku nodded his head. "Let me get you all scrubbed up then." He said grabbing a bar of soap and slowly started scrubbing every inch of her body. Izuku felt Pony shudder as he moved the bar of soap across and down her chest.
"T-Tease," Pony stuttered as the bar of soap moved across her nipples. She started breathing harder as Izuku moved slowly down her stomach. "Daddy, you're getting close to another round.” She warned as the bar of soap brushed against her sex.
Izuku was pushed again the wall of the shower. He could see Pony's eyes shining with lust. "Pony?" He asked as she pulled him out of the shower and tossed him on the bed like he was a pillow. “Uff," Izuku grunted out as his back hit the bed and he bounced once on the mattress. He looked up to see Pony crawling on the bed with another condom in her teeth "Pony?"
"I warned you." Pony said straddling his waist. She started grinding up against his cock. "Now I don't care if we're late, I'm gonna ride you til I’m satisfied.” She opened the condom and slowly rolled it on and grinning as Izuku moaned.
Izuku was about to say something until Pony slide his cock back inside her. “Oh, Pony.” He moaned as she clamped down on him.
Pony grinned as she started rocking back and forth slowly. “I need to break this stallion.” She growled as she felt him twitch inside her. “God, I needed this!”
Izuku reached up and grabbed her hips. “Please don’t stop Pony.” He begged as Pony started to bounce with vigor.
Pony beamed to see her boyfriend begging underneath her. She could feel him starting to buck and tense up. “Almost there hold off Izuku. Just a bit longer. Please.” Pony told him as she increased her pace as she felt close to hitting her peak.
“I can’t much longer.” Izuku groaned as he fought to hold out for Pony.
Pony bounced up one more time and dropped down hard. “NOW IZUKU!” Pony cried out as she came hard.
Izuku growled out as she came a moment later. As his orgasm ended he looked up and smiled. "That was fun," Izuku said with a crooked smile.
Pony nodded her head and laughed. “Yeah, it was.” She panted. “I owe my aunt another hour.” She reluctantly let him fall out of her. Pony fell beside him and kissed his cheek. “Now we need to shower and get back for my party mister.”
Izuku laughed as she kissed her forehead. “I know, no funny business.” He agreed getting up and throwing away the condom. “Want me to go first?”
Pony nodded her head. “If I go in with you we’ll be late.” She said with a sigh. “You first, then I will take a shower.
Izuku nodded his head in agreement and walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
Pony lay there on the bed with a smile. This was the best birthday ever. Now if she could just feel her legs.
After Izuku came out of the bathroom he helped Pony walk to the bathroom, but she told him to wait outside. When she came out a bit later she asked him to help her get dressed. She used Izuku to help keep her balance at first. She walked slowly at first, but soon she was able to walk abet with a slight limp. They checked out and the Lady behind the counter handed Pony the bill with the additional hour charged to the card on file.
"Guess I was wrong.” The woman muttered before once again going back to reading on her phone to alleviate the bored that was her job.
Laura Tsunotori smiled as she stepped off the private plane taking in a breath of fresh air. It had been a long flight from Texas and she needed to stretch her legs. She sent a message to her husband telling him they had arrived safely in Japan. Laura had told her cousin that she was coming to surprise her daughter and would take a taxi over to the house. Laura grabbed her luggage with no problems and was able to find a taxi with ease. Cathy grabbed her bags and walk beside her old mentor as she loaded their bags into the trunk of the taxi for them
Laura took out her phone and looked at the gallery of her baby girl. She was her miracle baby. She had started a family later in life and was told her odds of having children were minimal. After a couple of years and a bit of medical help, she had Pony.
Laura was proud of her daughter for getting accepted into UA as a transfer student and trained her thoroughly up until she had to leave for Japan. She missed her daughter terribly but knew she was bound to be a great heroine just like her Mama.
“You know you should have called and told Pony you were coming," Cathy said from the seat next to Laura. "She may be out with friends celebrating her birthday." She was currently praying that Pony had taken a good shower to wash the smell of sex before running into Laura. Cathy could never say no to Pony and this favor may come back and bite her in the ass in more ways than one.
Laura saw that they were a few blocks from her cousin’s place when she spotted a familiar set of horns and blonde hair. She smiled and had the driver pull over deciding that she wanted to surprise her. After paying the driver and retrieving her luggage from the trunk, Laura looked over and spotted her holding hands with a boy. “What the hell?” She asked aloud setting her bags on the sidewalk.
"Oh, shit," Cathy muttered as she spotted the obvious limp with each step her goddaughter took. She looked cautiously at her mentor and prepared to run if necessary.
Laura came to a complete stop. She looked over to see Pony was indeed holding the hands of a boy about her age with long fluffy green hair in a ponytail. Her baby girl was holding hands with a boy. Laura walked quietly behind the two of them and watched as the boy put his arm around her daughter's shoulder. She felt her heart clench when she heard her daughter start giggling as she leaned into him. 'Who is this boy?' she wondered.
Laura continued to follow them from behind trying to figure out how long they had been seeing each other. She watched as they neared her cousin's house when they stopped and face each other.
Laura was moved a bit closer and could just barely make out what they were saying, but they were talking in English. She barely noticed that Cathy was crouching beside her.
Laura felt a cold sweat running down her face. She had already scouted out several escape routes if needed.
“This has been an amazing Birthday day. Thank you so much Izuku.” Pony said flushed a bit. She was fidgeting with the hem of her shirt slightly.
Laura was gob-smacked to see her daughter acting like a love-struck maiden. She had to fight to get her daughter into a dress in the past. She always was a tomboy and grew up on their farm unafraid to get dirty when doing her chores. "Did you know about this?" Laura asked Cathy in surprise.
Cathy decided to double down. “Nope, not a clue.” She said with a shrug of her shoulders. She let out a mental sigh of relief at Laura focused on the boy that she was not seeing Pony limping. ‘Our luck needs to hold out just a bit little longer.” She thought to herself.
Izuku gave a small chuckle as he caressed Pony's face with a gentle hand. “It was my pleasure Pony.” He beamed at her. “I looked forward to our next outing together Birthday girl.”
Pony took a step forward standing on the tips of her hooves as Izuku knelt down to meet her halfway. Pony wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed. Izuku's wrapped his arms around Pony's waist. They stayed like that for almost a minute.
Laura went stone stiff and her mouth dropped in surprise.
Cathy was now swearing in her head knowing what was about to happen. ‘Why god?' She asked in her head. Cathy hoped that Laura would take a moment to calm down, but when she saw Laure clench her fists, she mentally swore again. 'Shit.'
Laura clenched her fist as she started stalking towards the pair. “Oi! Get your hands off my daughter Boy!” She growled out. They both turned to face her and separated quickly in alarm.
“MOM?!” Pony exclaimed at seeing her in Japan. “When did you get here?” She asked starting to panic at her mother's sudden appearance. Pony knew how protective her mother was and how she was going to react.
Izuku's eyes went wide before looking at Pony. “That’s your Mom?” He asked. When Pony gave him a quick nod he felt a chill run down his spine. “Your Mom is the Strength Heroine: Minotaur AKA Cow Girl!” He knew about her since she was part of All Might’s debut in America. She was one of the top 15 in the US before she retired. She was able to fight with the best and come out on top. He was in so much trouble for kissing the daughter of such a powerful heroine. He had discreetly shifted Morpher to the Red Dino Gem.
Just in case.
Laura smiled as the boy's face went pale. “Yes, that's me.” She moved closer showing off her tall intimidating figure. “Imagine my surprise to find my baby girl playing tonsil hockey with a boy I’ve never met or heard of before today.” She growled giving him a stern glare.
“Mom, please just calm down I can explain everything. I Promise.” Pony said quickly trying to defuse this situation before it got out of hand. “My boyfriend was just walking me home from my birthday lunch date-.” She froze at the slip as she looked at her mother. “Oh, no.”
Cathy facepalmed at her goddaughter's slip of the tongue. “Fuck.” That was all she could manage to say. Cathy knew what was about to happen and that she needed to prevent an international incident.
Laura's mind went blank for a moment “Boyfriend? Date?” She muttered as images of Pony from the day she was born to the day before she left for Japan flashed in her mind. She set her luggage on the ground before reaching in to grab a lasso from inside. Laura sent a furious glare at Izuku. She let out an angry snort like a bull.
“Oh shit.” Pony said turning to Izuku. “Run Izuku! I will try and calm her down!”
Izuku didn’t hesitate as he gave Pony one last searing kiss on her lips. “Later Pony!” He yelled back as he made a run for it. He turned into a red blur as he ran down the street.
Laura snarled at him stealing one more kiss from her baby and chased after him. “GET BACK HERE!” She Roared at him before giving chase. “I’LL KILL YOU FOR KISSING MY BABY GIRL!”
Pony ran behind her wincing with each stride behind her Mom calling out. "Mom! Just calm down and listen!” She reached up and tapped her Comlink on their private channel. “I need some help!”
“What happened?” Momo asked concerned.
“I thought you and Izuku were on your birthday date?" Ochako asked confused.
“We were, my Mom arrived to surprise me and she saw me kissing Izuku.” Pony said quickly as she watched her try to lasso their boyfriend. “She is furious!”
“Sounds a bit much.”Setsuna chimed in. "Surely, she understands it was bound to happen?"
“I mean did she know you were seeing him?” Kyoka asked.
Pony let out a sigh. “No, I didn't know how to bring it up.” Pony turned a corner in pursuit. “She is very protective. My Mom was a Pro Heroine back in the USA. She was known as Minotaur.”
"Let me look her up," Toru said. “Oh wow. Guys sending you a link in our Chat.”
Pony ignored her phone chiming. “Are any of you free to help?”
"Um, let me call Rumi," Momo said quickly. “I think you are going to need his Sister's help to calm your Mom down."
"Quickly please!" Pony begged as she looked at her Aunt. "Can't you do something?"
Cathy shot her goddaughter a deadpanned expression. "Kiddo, I'm the #1 Hero in the US and I am still terrified of your mother and I am just hoping that she calms down before the local heroes intervene." She grabbed Pony and sped up to keep Laura from killing the poor boy.
Izuku was running for his life. He was a red blur running down the sidewalk. Izuku took a risk to glance over his shoulder to see that Cowgirl was still hot on his heels with a lasso in hand. He noted that she shifted into her minotaur form and was picking up speed. "Oh shit." He swore hoping that he could lose her. Izuku had to slow slightly as a car came to a stop in the road in front of him and Izuku was about to jump over it when a lasso wrapped around his waist and yanked him backwards.
“GOTCHA!” Laura growled as her target was flying towards her. She snatched him by his shirt and held him off the ground
Izuku tried to continue running, but his feet were not touching the ground as a hand held him by his shirt collar. "Would it help my case at all if I said that I love your daughter?" He asked the retired heroine in English with a fearful smile.
Laura shook her hear head. “No.” She said glaring at Izuku. “Any last words?”
“Laura, Stop!” Cathy cried out as she caught up with her mentor. “This is getting out of hand!”
"Mama don't kill my future husband!" Pony cried out as she was set back on her feet. “I love him!”
Laura tensed up and looked at her daughter. "YOUR WHAT!?"
“Pony,” Cathy groaned at her goddaughter. “Not the time.”
Izuku closed his eyes. "Pony, I love you.” He said gesturing to her mother’s angry expression. "But I don't think that helped!"
“Mom, please calm down and listen.” Pony begged her. “I will explain everything, just please put Izuku down.”It was taking everything she had not to limp in front of her Mom. “Please.”
"Have you stolen my daughter's innocents too?" Laura asked him.
“MAMA!” Pony shouted in embarrassment.
Cathy was feeling a sense of dread in the pit of her stomach.
Before Izuku could answer, five beams of light appeared nearby. Izuku and Pony let out a sigh of relief as Nemuri, Yu, Nana, Miruko, and Ryukyu were sending furious glares at the woman holding Izuku off the ground.
“Oh, thank god.” Izuku and Pony said at the same time.
“Put him down.” Miruko snarled as she took a fighting stance.
Nana dropped into her stance as she started. “Drop our baby brother.” She said coldly.
"Surrender," Ryukyu growled as dragon scales started to appear.
Nemuri rolled up her sleeves and prepared to release her quirk. “Make this easy and set him down gently.”
Yu was prepared to grow if needed. "Your call reindeer games." She growled out.
Cathy was about to say something when her eyes fell on Miruko. She had recognized all but one of the women that arrived. But as she looked at the Rabbit Heroine, she felt her heart skip a beat and her mouth go dry. "Holy shit, did Easter come early? Because I found my gorgeous chocolate bunny!” She blurts out before slapping a hand over her mouth.
Everybody just stops. Nana starts laughing as Ryukyu Nemuri, Yu just gap at the tall American woman. Miruko blushes heavily and takes a step back from the woman.
Izuku just gaped at Cathy at a loss for words.
“Aunt Cathy.” Pony groaned as she facepalmed at the fact her godmother was hitting on Miruko.
"Serious Cathy?" Laura asked lowering Izuku to the ground.
Cathy raised her hands quickly in surrender. “It just slipped out.” She said quickly.
Pony took the opportunity to run forward to hug Izuku tight. “I’m so sorry izu.” She said almost crying hugging him tightly.
"It's ok Pony," Izuku whispered as he kissed the top of her head. "It's ok."
Nana walks over and lets out a sigh. “Look, how about we calmly talk about this.” She said in perfect English. “It’s Pony’s birthday and her party is starting soon.”
Laura saw how upset her daughter was and let out a sigh. "That will be fine." She said looking at Cathy. "Can you get our bags and meet us at my cousin's place?"
"On it," Cathy said disappearing in a blur.
Nemuri and Yu walked over and acted as guards for Izuku as they walked to Pony’s party. Ryukyu and Miruko brought up the rear.
Nana walked up and extended her hand. “Nana Midoriya.” She greeted the older woman. “One of Izuku’s big sisters.”
“Laura Tsunotori, Pony’s Mom.” She replied shaking Nana’s hand. "Shall we head to my daughter's party?"
"Lead the way," Nana said gesturing for Laura to go first.
Laura just sighed as she headed towards her cousin’s home. She was hoping there were no more surprises for the day.
“Mama Pony!” Eri and Raphtalia squealed out together as they ran over to greet Pony. “Happy Birthday!”
"There are my girls!" Pony replied just as excited as them and hugged them close.
Laura's jaw just dropped as two little girls ran forward to hug her daughter. "Wait, Mama!" She asked looking at her daughter for answers. "Pony?"
Cathy facepalmed and muttered. “Jesus.”
"They are Izuku's adopted daughters." Pony explained as she kissed girls on top of their heads. She smirked as look at her mom. "Eri, Raphtalia, this is my Mama Laura."
"Hi, Grandma!" Eri said with a big smile and a wave.
Raphtalia ran over to hug the tall woman's leg. "Hi, Grandma Laura!" She said just as brightly.
Izuku was currently keeping an on the nearest door to make another escape if needed.
Laura was still in shock for several long moments before she returned their greetings. “Hi girls. It’s nice to meet you.” She said softly kneeling down to hug the little tanuki.
Pony sighed and pointed to the couch. “Let’s talk before the party gets started.” She told her Mom before walking over to sit down across from her. “Now promise me you will let me tell you everything and you won’t scream and upset Eri or Raphtalia.”
Laura slowly nodded her head as Eri scrambled to sit on her lap. “I promise.” She said petting the little unicorn's head.
"Here," Inko said holding out a glass. "You may need this. I’m Inko by the way. Izuku Mother.”
Laura took a sniff and nodded her head. “Single malt. Thank you.” She nodded her head at Inko. “Laura, Pony’s Mom.”
Cathy got comfortable nearby just in case she needed to try and restrain Laura. She glanced over at Miruko and stared at the woman’s muscular legs. She looked away before she got caught staring at the gorgeous chocolate bunny.
Laura had her glass refilled twice as Pony explained how she met Izuku and fell for the boy along with 7 other girls. She looked down to see her granddaughters sitting on her lap. She had a lot of respect for the boy taking in two mistreated children and raising them as his own. The more she learned about Izuku the more she could see what attracted Pony to him. “Promise me that you won’t give me any more grandchildren until after you graduate from UA and get married please."
“I promise.” Pony said with a smile. She looked at the clock. “Everyone will be arriving any moment.” She got up slowly and walked over to hug her Mom. “Thanks for coming Mom.”
"Your welcome baby," Laura told her daughter with a tight embrace. "I'll be here until after the Sports Festival. I can't wait to see you compete.”
Pony bounced with excitement. “That’s awesome!” She squealed happily.
Izuku was laughing as a figure towered over him. “Oh, hello Cathy, right?” Izuku asked offering the woman a hand.
“Cathleen Bate, but my friends call my Cathy.” She replied with a big smile. “Nice to know my goddaughter is being well taken care of.”
"Pony is pretty amazing," Izuku said glancing over at his girlfriend. "What, I know that name.”
Cathy started laughing. "Well, I go by the name Star and Stripe in the US." She told Izuku and started laughing harder at his fanboy reaction.
"Can I get your autograph?" Izuku asked pulling a notebook out of nowhere. "How does your Quirk work?" After that, the dam collapsed, and started asking her question after question.
Laura looked over at her daughter’s boyfriend nerding out and asking Cathy a barrage of questions. "Is that normal?" She asked out loud to everyone in the room. She looked around to see everyone nodding their heads.
Laura was about to ask a question when she felt someone tap her shoulder. She looked down to see Raphtalia trying to get her attention. "Year dear?" She asked kindly.
“Are you a Hero too?” The Tanuki asked excitedly.
Laura smiled and nodded his head. "I was, but I retired with Pony was born." She said and chuckled as the girl got even more excited.
“Can you tell us some stories?” Raphtalia asked her tail swinging with excitement.
Eri nodded her head as well. “Yeah, Stories please.” She asked politely.
Laura smiled. “I guess I can think of a few stories to tell you two." She told the girls as she got comfortable.
Soon the guests started to arrive. The rest of Izuku girlfriends arrived along with Kiri, Melissa, Fumikage, Tsu, Kinoko, Denki, Ibara, Hitoshi, Camie, and Himiko. Tetsutetsu and Kiri started catching up and the guests started milling around the room. Izuku spotted Kaina and Rei setting up the refreshment table.
“Glad to see you are in one piece.” Setsuna teased Izuku as she walked up and kissed him. “I can speak for all of us and say we want you in one piece.”
"Agreed on that," Momo said getting her kiss.
Ochako hurried in to steal a kiss from Izuku. “We missed you last night.”
"Yeah, I missed you all too," Izuku said as Toru moved towards him. "Did you all have a lot of fun?"
“Loads.” Toru gushed moving in and gave Izuku a long kiss before stepping back. “I can’t wait for a sleepover at the dorms. It will be epic.
Mina moved in for her kiss and reach down to grab his ass. “Ah need that.” She said giving him a wink.
Kyoka rolled her eyes and kissed Izuku while caressing his cheek with one of her jacks. "Glad you are ok." She whispered. “I need my muse in one piece for my big debut.”
Mei took her turn and pulled Izuku into a searing kiss. "You need to be safe Zuzu," Mei said taping his chest with a finger. "We have a lot of babies to make in the future to get my company off the ground."
“I know Mei.” Izuku chuckled. “Glad all of you can make it. Pony is talking with her Mom and Aunt from the US.”
Mina spotted Inko and Kaina standing off to the side with a woman with white hair. "Who is talking with your Mom's," Mina said pointing at them. Her mouth dropped when Inko and Kaina took turns kissing the woman. “Wait, are they?" she gestured to them before gesturing to their group.
“That is Rei,” Izuku informed them with an awkward chuckle. "Mom and Kaina’s new girlfriend.” He said trying to suppress a shudder and failed.
"OMG," Setsuna said grinning. "You walked in on them."
Izuku sighed. “They were making out on the couch when I came into the apartment.” He groaned as his girlfriends started laughing. “Alright time to mingle.” He told them as he walked off to talk with his guy friends.
Cathy drank some punch as she waited until she knew Miruko was busy talking to one of her sisters before heading over to Izuku and asked him. "Is anyone dating that sexy Chocolate bunny over there?" She whispers in Japanese to Izuku while pointing at Miruko.
"OK first off, that's my sister so gross,” Izuku replied with a wince. “And second I wouldn't even try it."
Cathy frowns at him “Why is that?” She asked a bit miffed. “Is it because I am a Yankee devil?”
“What? No.” Izuku replied before hesitating for a moment. “My sister got her heart broken by some asshole a few days ago. She is still mending.” He said wanting to protect his sister from another heartache so soon.
Cathy nods her head. “Ok, Look I want to date your Sister. I am willing to take it slow.” Cathy said honestly. “I promise.”
“I am pretty sure my sister is straight," Izuku informed the woman trying to date his sister.
Cathy a lecherous smile speared on her face “They all start out that way.” She told him while giving him an exaggerated wink.
Izuku just groans as Pony pulls him away glaring at her Aunt. “Auntie!” Pony hissed out.
Kyoka was choking on her drink as Ochako patted her on the back.
“What happened?’ Momo asked Kyoka handing her a napkin.
Kyoka accepted it and wiped her face. "Later in the girl's chat."
"Spill the tea!" Mina, Toru, and Setsuna whispered together, but Kyoka ignored them as best she could.
Soon it was time for the cake and everyone joined in to sing Happy birthday to Pony. After blowing out the candles they lead her over to the table for their gifts.
Pony smiled as Eri and Raphtalia were the first ones to grab their gift to give it to her. "Thank you, girls." She told them as she opened it to find a picture of Pony with both girls taken the night she stayed over. "I love it."
Eri and Raphtalia both beamed with pride as they hugged Pony before scurrying off.
Kyoka gifted Pony with a variety of CDs from her favorite anime shows.
Setsuna gave Pony a few movies that she was missing thanks to Izuku.
Ochako gave Pony a homemade scarf that was the perfect size.
Mei got her a gift card to her Anime shop to get what she needed for her collection.
Mina and Toru went in together to get her a new messenger bag from one of her favorite shows.
Momo got Pony several dresses and clothes that looked adorable on her.
Many of the other guests went with gift cards since they didn't know what pony wanted or needed.
Laura handed Pony a gift. “Happy Birthday baby.” She said with a big grin on her face.
Pony opened the gift and gasped after taking out a pair of orange glasses. "These are your old Hero glasses!' Pony said trying them on. "They fit perfectly!"
"Well, they should. I had them made just for you." Laura said giving her daughter a wink. "You can add them to your costume.
Pony hugged her Mom smiling brightly. “I love them.
Inko handed Pony a small box. “Here.” She said handing the box to the birthday girl. “Hope you like it.”
Pony opened it and found a table that looked cutting edge. "Wow, this looks incredible." She said finding the power button and turned on the device and whistled at how fast it got to the start screen.
“It is a Triforian tablet," Inko explained as Pony's eyes grew wider. "It has a large storage compacity and Izuku told me you have a lot of digital content and not enough space for all of it.”
Pony clutched the device to her chest like it was made of gold. “I will cherish it.”
Izuku waited patiently as she handed Pony a large box. “Happy Birthday Pony.” He told her as she grinned at her.
Pony set her new tablet down to open the box and after she removed the paper covering her gift Pony gasped. Inside were a pair of custom-made knee-high black boots. Pony slid them on and they fit her hooves perfectly. “How?” She asked walking around and loving the feeling of walking around without clicking her hooves all the time.
“It's a secret," Izuku told her with a wink. "You told me you wished you could wear fancy boots on a date, but could never find any that fit comfortably, so I asked for help and here they are.” He told Pony. “Do you-uff." Izuku was tackled to the floor and smashed her lips against his as her tail swished back and forth with her excitement.
“I love them!” Pony said beaming at him. “Thank you so much.” She was straddling his hips and rested his hands on his chest.
“Glad you like them," Izuku said watching as Laura walked over and picked her daughter up off of him by the collar of Pony's shirt with one hand.
"Not in front of me please," Laura grumbled setting her daughter on the ground before helping Izuku back to his feet. "That was a very thoughtful gift." She remarked before moving back to her seat. "What about you Cathy?"
Cathy went still for a moment before smiling. "I sent mine ahead of our arrival. I sent her a gift card to her to expand her collection." She informed her mentor while lying through her teeth. Cathy was not about to tell Laura her gift to Pony was a Love Hotel.
"You spoil her," Laura replied with a tired sigh.
Pony and Cathy let out a sigh of relief when Laura wasn't looking.
After presents, everyone dug into the amazing food and the party got a bit livelier. Music started playing and Pony dragged Izuku to the dance floor. After a few slow dances, he made his rounds on the dance floor with his other girlfriends. After stepping away to get a drink, he turned around to find Laura standing in front of him.
"Yes Ma'am?" Izuku asked politely a little sacred of the intimidating woman.
Laura gave Izuku a very stern look before letting out a deep sigh. "You make my daughter happy. I want to thank you for that." She told Izuku her stern look easing slightly. "Pony is my only child and her happiness means everything to me. So, I will only tell you this once. Break her heart and they will never find your body." Laura narrowed her eyes. "Understand?"
"Crystal Ma'am," Izuku replied nodding his head quickly.
"Good," Laura said crossing her arms. "I expect Pony to get the proposal of a lifetime when it's time for you to get married. Don't disappoint my daughter." She told him leaving the threat unsaid before returning to the party.
"You ok Izu?" Pony asked wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Yeah," Izuku replied kissing Pony on the cheek. "Your Mom loves you very much and gave me the shovel talk."
Pony rolled her eyes. "Sorry, she has always been like that," she said leaning her head against his chest. "Can we dance a bit more?"
"Lead the way my Otaku Queen," Izuku replied following her back onto the dance floor.
Pony beamed at her nickname and held Izuku close as they dance.
Later that night after the party, Cathy walked into her hotel room and set her bag down on the bed with a tired sigh. It took her a moment to notice that a single lamp turn on and Laura is sitting in a chair beside it glaring at her.
"Jesus!" Cathy exclaimed grabbing her chest. "Scared the hell out of me Laura." She took a few calming breaths. "Thought you were staying with Pony?" Cathy opened her suitcase and started to unpack it.
"Oh, I am," Cathy said in a low voice. "I thought we should talk about that 'Gift' you gave my daughter."
Cathy froze in terror. "O-Oh?" She asked as she started shaking slightly. "I know you don't like her nerdy stuff, but I am supposed to spoil my goddaughter."
"I saw Pony limping when she thought I wasn't looking," Laura said leaning forward. "I may have been focused on the boy, but I am not blind or stupid." Laura could see Cathy starting to sweat. "I could also smell the same shampoo coming on both Pony and Izuku." Laura cracked her knuckles. "I didn't say anything because it would have ruined Pony's party and upset my granddaughters."
"Uh," Cathy said swallowing hard. "I can explain."
"Please do. You are still a terrible liar Cathy." Laura said standing up and stalking toward Cathy. "Start talking."
Cathy confessed to everything she had ever done going all the way back to her rookie days as Laura's sidekick.

Chapter Text
Nezu smirked as Izuku walked into his office with a smile on his face and pep in his step. Nezu pulled out a few files from his desk and set them in front of his student. “Good Morning Izuku,” He greeted Izuku. “I can see from your demeanor that you had a good weekend.” Nezu gave his student a wide grin.
"You could say that," Izuku replied with a grin of his own. "Mom said that she would be a little later this morning. She mentioned it had something to do with Rei?”
Nezu chuckled and leaned back in his chair as his grin grew wider. "Your Mother offered to deliver something to Endeavor personally." He said with another round of laughter. "I am sure it will be quite the memorial event."
Izuku started laughing. “I’m sure you will share any footage you find of their time together?” He asked his mentor with a slight plea in his voice.
“Of course," Nezu replied, taking a sip of his tea. "I am sure I can find a way to work it into our lessons." He looked at his watch. "We have two meetings this morning. One is with an old friend of mine and the other is with Rikiya Yotsubashi, CEO of Detnerat.” He noted the surprised look on Izuku’s face. “Former Chairman Monoma signed an exclusive contract with them to create all of the HeroStudent costumes and their support gears for UA for the past three years. That contract is set to expire today.Mr. Yotsubashi made an appointment with me to get the contract renewed for the next 10 years.”
Izuku narrows his eyes. "They were the ones that approved both Toru and Momo's final costume designs right?" He asked still furious about how short-sided and lazy their design team had been. Izuku and Nezu and done the research into how many students in the past 3 years had issues with their costumes wearing out after minimal use or were injured due to improper gear that caused more harm than good due to the student's Quirk. "Hell, even Ochako'scostume was designed for sex appeal over function. Running in heels and making her outfit skin tight when she wanted it more like 13's." He had sat down with his girlfriend and with Mei's help redesigned all their costumes to keep them safe and gave their costumes added protection.
“I agree with you completely, Izuku," Nezu said, his smile disappearing. "They put looks over function and because of that, I have a lot of injured students and put more strain on the Support Classes to fix or improve support gear to keep them safe." He gestured to the bookshelf behind Izuku. "Can you grab the black binder we put together please?"
“Sure, thing sir," Izuku replied, getting up and grabbing the 5-inch thick binder from the shelf and placing it on the desk. "How do you want to do this sir?"
"I want to make him regret putting my student's safety at risk for a quick profit. I will burn everything to the ground.” He glanced over at DECA’s camera. “Is the article ready to be released?”
"That is affirmative Nezu," DECA replied automatically. "The Yaoyorozu family lawyer and their firm have approved the article to be released and will make a press conference immediately after it is released to the press. I am simply waiting for your order."
“Excellent.” Nezu preened and rubbed his paws together. “Now, is our first appointment here yet DECA?” He asked with a knowing smile. “I know he likes to be early.”
"Mr. Forger and his family is waiting outside," DECA informed him. "Would you like me to open the door?"
"That would be lovely. Thank you DECA." Nezu replied, smiling as the door opened. "Please come in my old friend.” Nezu let a rare smile appear on his face.
Izuku turned to look as three people walked inside the office. The first was a tall man with slicked-back blonde hair and blue eyes. He was good looking and his green suit looked immaculate. Something about the man's walk told Izuku that he was dangerous. Izuku would compare it to how Shouta always walked into a room, prepared to react and he noted that the man's eyes were scanning the room for any possible threat.
The woman walking beside him was slightly shorter than the man and had a similar build to Kyoka. She had fair skin and long black hair that split her hair into two parts and crossed it over her head, securing it with a red headband that formed two thick locks of hair on each side of her face that reached below her chest. The woman wore a simple beige sweater over a black dress and red high heel shoes. Izuku could sense something dangerous about the woman as well and noted her piercing red eyes were scanning the room as well and he noticed that she was holding the hand of a little girl.
The girl looked to be Eri and Rapthilia's age and was wearing the same uniform as his daughters. The girl had shoulder-length pink with two small buns that looked like cat ears due to the black covers over them and vibrant green eyes. Izuku could see by the girl's cautious nature that she was uncomfortable around strangers. Her eyes were like his daughters, they looked scared and were scanning the room around her while holding the woman's hand tightly.
“Izuku, this is my old friend Loid Forger, his wife Yor, and his daughter Anya," Nezu said introducing his guests. "Loid, Yor, Anya, This is Izuku Midoriya, my student and Leader of the Power Rangers.”
"Power Rangers!" Anya gasped before taking a step closer to him. "Amazing." Her eyes were sparkling with excitement as she bounced in place. “I saw you on TV!”
Izuku smiled at the girl and moved to kneel in front of her. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Anya." He said in a gentle voice and slowly offered the girl his hand. "I have two daughters your age. Their names are Eri and Raphtalia. I’m sure they would like to meet you.”
Anya looked at the boy in front of her. She was glad to see that he was not crowding her or trying to touch her. Her Quirk Mind Reader was always on and normally made her tired when there were a lot of people around her. Anya caught glimpses of Izuku's life. She saw images of him being bullied, then images of two girls. One was a girl with a unicorn horn and another with tanuki ears and a tail. She sensed kindness and compassion from him. Anya got a glimpse of him fighting and rescuing people. "It's nice to meet you too Izuku," Anya said with a big smile on her face.
Loid and Yor were stunned by their daughter's actions. Anya rarely talked to anyone like that, let alone smile at a stranger. They discovered her quirk one day by accident and after finding out about her past before she was adopted. They taught her how to control it and Yor trained her to defend herself. Both Loid and Yor grew very protective of their daughter.
“He must be special.” Loid mused, letting a slight smile appear on his normally stoic face. “I haven’t seen her open up like that to anyone before.” He watched his daughter start to ask Izuku various questions and he patiently answered each question.
"Izuku has that way with children," Nezu said proudly. "He is the father of two adopted girls that he personally rescued from bad situations. Both of them will be Anya's classmates." Nezu had read the file on Anya and was certain that Eri and Raphtalia would connect with Anya and give her what she wanted the most. Friends.
"He is such a kind soul," Yor said, smiling at both Izuku and Anya. "I think this place will be a good fit for her.” She had worried about her daughter fitting in with other children, but this was easing some of her concerns.
"That he is," Nezu agreed softly as he smiled at how Izuku had that ability to make people at ease around him. "I am grateful for your assistance, Loid. I know you wanted to enjoy your time with your family."
“I owed you one Nezu,” Loid said with a wave of his hand. “Besides, I was getting bored after my last mission was completed. I got a beautiful wife and daughter out of it though.”
"Good answer dear," Yor said, kissing her husband's cheek. "Are you still looking for a new Close Quarter Combat instructor?" She put on an almost innocent smile. “I’d like to apply if you don’t mind.”
Nezu went still for a moment and turned to look at the woman with an almost manic smile. “Why yes, I am.” He said gesturing to the seat in front of his desk. "Please have a seat. I would like to hammer out all the details.” Nezu reached into his desk and pulled out a stack of papers and a pen. "Please fill these out while Izuku is entertaining Anya.”
Loid and Yor took a seat as they went off the paperwork to make her position official as the school's new CQC instructor. Nezu listed Loid under a special alias as the school's investigator. He gave them housing on campus to give them a safe place to live and allow for Loid to come and go without worrying about being seen or followed. It would also give both of them access to any resource they would need. Loid looked at his new salary and blinked several times in surprise.
While Loid and Yor worked on their paperwork, Izuku showed Anya his Morpher and smiled brightly at Anya getting excited over it. He changed to a few different Morphers and even changed it into the White Dino gem to go invisible for a few seconds before reappearing. Anya was having a blast and clapped excitedly.
As their time came to an end, A knock at the door revealed Mirio, Nejire, and Tamaki walked into the office after Nezu opened the door.
“Izuku!” Nejire squealed before shooting forward to hug him tightly to her chest. “I’ve missed you.” She told him while hovering in the air.
"Oh dear," Mirio said with a groan. "Nejire remembered what we talked with Yuyu about you not doing that when you saw Izuku again." He was hoping that would get her to stop without causing another incident.
"Oh, oops," Nejire said, dropping her underclassman quickly and rubbing the back of her head with an embarrassed look on her face. "Sorry, Izuku."
“All good.” Izuku gasped as Anya hid behind him from the newcomers. “Anya, these are the Big 3." He introduced the new people in the room to her. "This is Mirio, Tamaki, and Nejire. They will be showing you to your new teacher and classmates.”
“Aw, another adorable chibi." Nejire cooed with a bright smile. "Hi there, just call me Nejire. I’ll take good care of you!”
"Are you ready to meet your new classmates?" Mirio asked, dropping to a knee to give her a reassuring smile. "I have met a few of them. They are very nice.”
Tamaki gave her a small wave and a shy smile.
Izuku turned around and gave Anya a gentle smile. “They will take you to where Eri and Raphtalia are.” He explained offering his hand to the scared girl. “They will take good care of you. I promise.
Anya looked deeply into Izuku's eyes and read his mind. She nodded her head and hurried forward to hug Izuku. "Ok.” She said, muffled from her hug with Izuku. “Thank you.”
“It was my pleasure, Anya." He said returning the little girl's hug. “I may see you around again after Eri and Raphtalia meet you." Izuku watched as Anya walked over and took Nejire's hand.
Loid walked over and shook Izuku's hand. "You are a good man." He said sincerely. Loid had been in the game a long time and individuals like Izuku were very few and becoming rarer to find. "I look forward to seeing you grow. Here is my number. Call me if you need anything”
"My pleasure sir," Izuku replied, accepting the man's handshake and pocketing the number. “Thank you for helping us.”
Loid smiled at him and nodded his head. "I'll see you around Izuku.” He slipped his hands into his pocket and went to stand near his daughter and the Big 3.
Yor gave him a quick bow before smiling at Izuku. "I look forward to seeing how skilled you are." She said before turning to go stand beside her husband.
"If you will follow me, I will show you to Anya's classroom," Mirio said with a bright smile on his face. "If you have any questions please let me know."
“Bye Izuku!” Anya called back while waving as she left the office.
Izuku smiled and waved back “Bye. Have a good day Anya.” He replied to the girl as the group left, Leaving Izuku and Nezu alone in the office. “When will our guest arrive?” He asked making sure to add the proper amount of sarcasm to the word guest. He moved over to retake his usual seat.
"His appointment should start in about 10 minutes or so," Nezu replied, leaning back in his chair. "Shall we review the various failures while we wait?”
"Sounds good to me sir," Izuku said, opening up the binder and starting at the top of the list. Izuku was starting to wonder how his Mom was doing. He read off the first costume malfunction along with its matching incident report.
Endeavor was struggling to keep his temper in check as he had to stop himself from destroying the 4th phone in the past 5 days. He set the receiver down and slammed his fists onto the desk in anger. His best investigators had come up with nothing so far. No one had seen hide or hair of his bitch of a wife since she vanished Saturday from the hospital. He had the area around the UA campus under surveillance by his most loyal men in case she decided to run to Nezu and tell him everything. Endeavor growled at how he had lost control of his children and how he had to keep his wife's escape quiet to keep his reputation pristine. Nero was keeping an eye out for him and President Tanaka had a series of press conferences coming up for him to promote the Commission and boost their numbers. He would take the opportunity to finally beat All Might in the rankings.
He was broken from his thoughts of his various plans after being named the new #1 of all Japan when his intercom beeped twice. Endeavor growled before tapping the button angrily. “I told you that I do not want to be disturbed unless it was a dire emergency or a call from the Commission.” He snapped at one of his sidekicks. Since Burnin had quit so suddenly, he had been forced to use another of his numerous sidekicks to fill in for the time being. Endeavor planned on calling in another favor with Nero to have Burinin’s license suspended on some trumped-up charges that would force her to come crawling back to his agency. After he had Burnin back in her proper place, He would have his traitorous daughter back under his thumb as well. “Well? Why have you disturbed me?”
“There is a woman here that has requested to speak with you, sir. She said it was important and will only speak to you in person about it.”
“What part of do not disturb me unless it was an emergency did you not understand?” Endeavor roared letting his flames grow with his temper.
“S-S she said she has information on a case for a Miss Shimo? I was told her there is no active case with that name at this time.”
Endeavor froze in surprise. Only a handful of people knew Rei's maiden name and 95% of them worked for him. He had called in a lot of favors to have Rei removed from any or all the public records. “Did she give you a name?” He asked wanting to know who he would need to have investigated after they left.
“She didn’t give a name sir, she just repeated that she would only speak to you in person or her next stop would be to every major news outlet with her information.”
Endeavor snarled at the arrogance of this woman who dared threaten to take something involving his wife to the press. His first reaction was to grab the woman and force her to spill her guts, but she may have something in place that if she didn’t talk to someone after a certain amount of time, then the information is released. He forced himself to take a deep breath. "Send her in and no more interruptions.” Endeavor said through gritted teeth as tried not to destroy his office with her Hellflames. He knew they were burning hotter than normal and he needed to keep his head in the game. A few moments later, the door opened and a woman walked in wearing a nice black dress and jacket. The woman had dark green hair that looked familiar for some reason. “What do you know about my wife?”
Inko smiled at the man and resisted the urge to punch the man in the face until her arms got tired. The years had not been kind to Endeavor and she knew that he was moments away from losing his temper. “You haven’t changed a bit Enji. Straight to the point as always.” She said in a bored tone. Inko held up a manila fold in her left hand. “I’m here to deliver you this personally.” She walked over and slid it across the desk towards the angry man. "I know you don't have the attention span to read something with that many big words, but those documents in front of you are divorce papers for one Rei Shimo.”
“WHAT!” Endeavor roared as opened the file and read the front page. This woman had a set of big brass ones to serve him divorce papers for Rei. He scanned the documents noting that Rei didn't want money, property, or even her original checking account that he emptied and closed out years ago. All Rei wanted was to end their marriage and custody of all of their children. "I'll never sign this." He snarled, leveling his eyes at the woman. “I will make sure that she is locked back up in that hospital.
“Oh, I think you will Enji," Inko replied, letting a feral grin appear on her face. "You see, I am here with Nezu's blessing to deliver this paperwork on Rei’s behalf. The law office that has agreed to take Rei's case Pro Bono belongs to the Yaoyorozu family.” Inko had to suppress a laugh at the stunned look on his face. “Yes, THAT Yaoyorozu family." She crossed her arms and let him sit there for a moment. "They have all the evidence that Nezu sent you recently, plus a few things that you buried a lot deeper.”
Endeavor blinked at the woman and felt a chill go down his spine. “Who are you?” He hissed as his flames grew brighter.
“I’m just an old friend of Rei’s,” Inko said with a hint of mischief in her eyes. “Now, you have 5 minutes to sign those divorce papers or everything will be released to the press. You may be able to use your influence with a few of the news agencies to prevent them from printing the story, but I have it so if I don’t call a friend very soon, then it goes to EVERY newspaper editor in the world." She laughed at the horrified look on Endeavor's face. "So, what's your decisionEnji?”
Endeavor felt his blood boiling. He hated to admit it, but the woman was good. He could refuse and call her bluff but if she had the right dirt on him and it got out, then his reputation would be ruined, and would lose his shot at #1. Or, he could just sign the papers and be done with Rei and his children. He stared at the documents for a long time before picking up the pen and signing where it was marked with stickers that said Sign Here . After looking it over he closed the folder and threw it back at the woman. "Tell that whore of an ex-wife that no one will ever touch her again. She is tainted just by divorcing me.”
“Still as pleasant as always Enji.” Inko bristled at him insulting Rei and used her quirk to float the file back into her hand. “I want you to know something Enji, I've been touching her in all the right places and I've been making her scream my name to the heavens on a daily basis," Inko said, flashing him a wicked smile. “Rei still tastes amazing after all these years. She loves it when I have my tongue deep inside her, just like our first night together when I popped her cherry before your wedding." She laughed as she walked out of the office. "I can't wait to take her to bed tonight and make her scream my name some more since Rei is a free woman now. I’ll give her what you never could Enji. Satisfaction and countless orgasms.”
Inko flipped him off as she sauntered out of the office and closed the door behind her. She looked at the young man answering the phone. "I wouldn't go in there for a while if I were you." She said kindly before making her way to the elevator to leave.
Endeavor sat in his chair for the longest time not moving. He barely registered the woman leaving or the fact she was flipping him off. When the words finally registered what the woman had said, Endeavor lost it. His flames surged off him in all directions and everything thing in the office was burning. The smoke was getting heavy in the room. He let out a furious roar and the room flashed over. A moment later the sprinklers kicked on and extinguished the flames. Endeavor looked around the charred remains of his office and stormed out of his office. He relit his flames to cover his face. “I’m going out.” He snarled as he blew past his sidekick outside his office heading for the elevator. He needed to talk with Nero ASAP.
Inko walked out of the building and made a quick phone call.
“Inko? How did it go?”
Inko smiled brightly as she looked at the folder. “It’s done. He signed it.” She told Rei with an excited voice. "You are free Rei." Inko started to smile even brighter as she heard Rei cheering on the other end of the call.
“That’s incredible! When can I see my children?”
"I'll speak with Fuyumi and I will have Kaina speak with Natsuo," Inko said looking around before stepping off to the side. "We can have a nice reunion at the apartment tonight."
“That sounds lovely. Do you want me to whip something up?”
“Can you cook?” Inko asked with a quirked eyebrow. “I remember that one time when-.”
“HEY! I got better thank you very much. I took lessons before my children were born. You know that.”
Inko laughed as she made her way to her car. “I was just teasing my beautiful Snow Queen. I am sure that whatever you make will be amazing.” She said softly. “Just call me if you need anything ok?”
“Will do, dear. I love you Inko. See you when you get home.”
“Love you too Rei. See you later.” Inko replied, getting into her car. She hung up the phone and made her way back to UA.
Izuku and Nezu had just finished up an incident report from the binder when someone knocked at the door. “That must be Mr.Yotsubashi,” He said, taking a deep breath before looking at Izuku. Are you ready for this?”
"Yes sir," Izuku replied, giving his mentor a slight smile. "Let’s get this over with.” He pulled the binder onto his lap.
Nezu nodded his head and tapped a button on the desk to open the door. "Welcome, Mr. Yotsubashi.” He greeted with a stiff smile. “Please come in and make yourself comfortable.”
Izuku had seen a few video clips of the man after Mr. Yotsubashi while researching the various claims and lawsuits from Detnerat for ineffective costumes and defective gear. Mr. Yotsubashi was a tall, odd-looking man with a prominent long pointed nose and an obtuse chin. The man's tall dark eyes seemed to be studying the room as he walked inside. His orange hair seemed to be reseeding and two moles were visible at his hairline. He wore a black suit with white stripes with a green shirt and tie. He had a briefcase in his left hand.
"Thank you Principal Nezu," Rikiya said with a sly smile on his face. The man walked over to take a seat and spotted Izuku. “Oh, I see you are in a meeting with your pet project." He turned and examined Izuku.
Izuku knew the look he gave him all too well. Like he was something unclean or something less than human. "Nice to meet you, sir." He said in a polite and professional tone. "Principal Nezu and I were just looking over Detnerat's previous contract with UA and any incidents that came from your company's costumes or support gear."
Rikiya had to suppress a sneer at the boy and gave him a false grin. "Is that so?" He said, trying to keep the disgust out of his voice. "I assure you that the former Chairman and I reached a fair agreement and we are one of the top Support companies in all of Japan." He reached into his briefcase and pulled out a folder and placed it on Nezu’s desk. “My legal team has the finalized contract that was discussed before the Chairman’s fall from grace. Everything is in order. Just needs your signature.”
Nezu nodded his head and started looking through the folder. “I see that you are still wanting the 10-year contract with Detnerat as the sole provider for Hero Student Costumes and support gear.” He read off the contract. “There is even a clause that states the Support Class is not allowed to modify anything without Detnerat permission.”
"That is correct," Rikiya confirmed with a quick nod of his head. "The costumes and gear would be under the proprietary technology of Detnerat and our company’s technicians would know what is needed to improve or repair the equipment." He leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. "I would be willing to let a few of the Support Students study at Detnerat under our supervision and sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement of course.”
Nezu pressed his paws together as he continued to read the contract. "This also says that any improvements that are made by the Support students or new gear that a student creates would become the property of Detnerat during the duration of this contract." He said looking at Rikiya with a frown on his face. “UA has always given the Support students the rights to their creations and the patents that go along with them.”
Rikiya shrugged his shoulders. “My company would be providing them with their equipment and supplies, so why shouldn’t we own the patents.” He replied with a smirk. “Children don’t know anything about how the world works. They should be grateful that my company is willing to let them work on our equipment."
“Despite the fact that in the last 3 years your support teams have made items that were lazy or defective.” Izuku chimed in with a scowl at the man. “Not only is that contract a detriment to the Support Classes, but to sign a 10-year contract with Detnerat would only do more harm than good for UA.”
"Children should be seen and not heard boy," Rikiya said coldly while keeping his attention on Nezu. "This is a matter for adults. So, sit quietly and let us handle this. Besides, that is slander about my company, so watch your tongue boy.”
"I would caution you on how you speak with my student," Nezu warned that man with a stern look. "The more I read this contract the less I like it Mr. Yotsubashi. This seems very beneficial to your company and does very little for UA or its students.” Nezu took a sip of his tea as he finished up the last of the contract and closed the folder.
Rikiya's grin became very strained. "This is very beneficial to UA with Detnerat support items and UA funding, the next generation of Heroes can be well prepared and become even greater than their predecessors." Rikiya relaxed a bit and crossed his arms. "Besides, my company has a near spotless track record."
Nezu's face remained cold as he was calming himself. "That may be the case, but after reviewing your company's costumes and gear for the past three years, we found a disturbing trend in your company's quality of costumes and gear.” He said pointing to the binder on his desk. “That binder right there is every incident report as a result of defective costumes or gear that was provided by Detnerat.”
"I find that hard to believe," Rikiya said, frowning at the binder. He paid his top inventors well and he put his best on all of the UA costumes. He knew that there would be a few deficits in each costume since he needed a way to disable the Heroes later when the MLA finally rose to power. "Surely, these are exaggerated a bit?”
“Not in the slightest," Izuku said, opening the binder and flipping to a certain page. "Let's start with a few of the students from Class A.” He showed him the page in question. "First off Ochako Uraraka, she asked for her suit to be more ASTRO themed like 13, and what did you do? You give her a skin tight outfit and heels?" He growled at the man who tried to get a word in but Izuku would not let him.
"Next one is for Momo Yaoyorozu, you guys do realize DNA fabric is a fucking thing, right? But no, your people make her have to basically expose herself to the world to use her quirk. Not to mention that if she fell on her back wrong? That bookshelf on her lower back would cause permanent damage to her spine!"
"But she never." Rikiya started but was quickly cut off.
Izuku glared at the man, making him stop talking. “Not done yet.”
"And the top of the list Toru Hagakure....fucking boots...and gloves...that's it! You have a 15-year-old girl running around in the nude!"
Rikiya grabbed the binder and read over the last one. He had to suppress his anger while he read the report of the girl’s actual costume. This was a colossal screw-up that never should have been approved for this exact reason. They could have used her hair to make a suit that worked with her invisibility. “This is just an oversight. It happens.”
“An oversight?” Izuku asked incredulously. “That was just 3 girls from class 1-A, I haven’t even got to 1-B or any of the senior's classes in that binder. It's substandard work that your company approved and put into the field."
Rikiya was fed up with this thing belittling him so blatantly. Rikiya stood up with a furious look on his face. "Now, listen here boy! You know nothing of the support world, hell you don’t know anything of the true world of heroics." He growled and grabbed Izuku by the front of his jacket. "You are a disgrace to this school and if the right people had it their way you would never be about to set a toe on this campus!"
Izuku glared back at the man defiantly. “I earned my place here at UA.” He said not giving an inch. “No one can take that from me.” He felt like he was back at his old school and was being held by his shirt collar by Bakugo. He felt his past start to rear its ugly head as he felt the beginnings of a panic attack starting. He kept his face neutral as best he could.
"Release my student now," Nezu said coldly. "That was the final straw for you and your company." Nezu stood up on top of his desk to look the man in the eyes. "UA will be going with another company to provide equipment and costumes for its students. The Yaoyorozu family has provided me with a list of new companies to choose from. Also, Ketsubutsu Academy has agreed to join our schools together and you will not be allowed to offer them a contract either."
Rikiya looked shocked and horrified at Nezu's words. To lose UA was one thing but another school as well? Once it got out, his company would suffer huge losses. If UA was refusing to use his company equipment, other schools would follow suit unless they had no choice. “You can’t be serious?” He asked in surprise. “That would ruin my company if it was released to the press.” He released the boy and turned to face Nezu. “Surely, we can work something out?”
"No," Nezu replied in a harsh tone. "Our business is concluded. I suggest you leave before I have you forcibly removed from my school."
Rikiya growled as she stood up and fixed his suit. “This isn’t over.” He snapped glaring between Nezu and the thing that was staring back at him. “I’ll make you regret this.” He turned and stormed out of the office. As soon as he cleared the main entrance he pulled out his phone and made a call. Waited until the person on the other side picked up. When they did, all he said was. "Full meeting at Deika City. 30 minutes.” Rikiya ended the call and got into his car. “Heliport now.”
As soon as Rikiya left the room Izuku started breathing faster and shallower, he was having a panic attack and he knew it. "Oh god." He panted as he started having flashbacks to his time at Aldera. Izuku loosened his tie to open up his shirt. "Not now.”
Nezu rushed over to his student's side and put a hand on his back. "Izuku, go to Hound Dogs office and stay there. I will send your girlfriends to you." He said as Izuku bolted out of the room to his safe area.
"DECA page his girlfriend’s and their teacher. Tell them to meet Izuku at Hound Dogs office immediately. Tell them Code Green" Nezu said, showing a look only a few people ever saw, pure concern for his student.
"On it Sir," DECA replied quickly. "Hound Dog will be there as soon as he can.
Nezu nodded his head and let out a series of deep breaths to calm down. "DECA, wait 15 minutes and send the go-head to the lawyers. Tell them to do as much damage as possible." He was angry and decided that the time for playing nice was over.
"On it sir," DECA replied in an amused digital tone. “Shall I send them a recording of this meeting as well?”
Nezu started cackling. "Yes, send that as well." He said moving to sit back in his chair. "No one lays a hand on my student without there being severe consequences." He leaned back in his chair and waited for the fallout that was about to happen.
Izuku hurried into the room and shut the door behind him. He sat on the long couch Hound dog had in the room and waited, time seemed to slow to a crawl as he tried to do the breathing exercises he was taught. “Not now. Come on Izuku.” Izuku murmured to himself as he panted. “You can beat this.”
It didn't seem to work all he heard was the bullies in his school calling him a null or beating him. "It's not real, they can't hurt me...please...please don't hurt me..." Izuku whimpered out as the door burst open to reveal the 8 women in his life. "Please....don't..." He said as tears streamed down his face.
Momo started at Izuku and gasped at him. He looked horrible as tears ran down his face and was clutching his shirt. “Let me go up first,” She said quietly, looking at the other girls. “Let him ask for more as he calms down.” Momo glanced to see them nod their heads with concerned looks on their faces.
She walked very slowly and knelt down in front of him almost an arm's length away. "Darling," Momo said softly, letting him react to her presence. “It’s ok. We’re here for you.” She had to fight the urge to touch him just yet.
“Mo-Mo?” Izuku asked, looking up as he was still struggling to get his breath. “W-What are y-you doing h-here?”
Momo opened her arms. “Can I hug you?” She asked instead of answering his question. “I’ll answer you in a moment.” When Izuku gave her a quick nod of his head, Momo slowly engulfed him in a hug. "Shh, It's ok."
Izuku held her closely, feeling embarrassed. "I-I'm sorry." He whispered as he clung to her like a lifeline. "I-I thought I was over this. I have to be stronger." He felt his eyes burn with unshed tears. "I'm a leader, I have to be stronger than my past." Izuku felt ashamed of his weakness.
"None of that Darling," Momo said, pressing a loving kiss to his forehead. "As much as you have been through, you are allowed to feel overwhelmed by the pain from your past." She ran her fingers through Izuku’s long hair with one hand and the other gently lifted his chin up to look into his emerald eyes. “You’re not alone anymore. We all love you Izuku. We came here to comfort you.”
Izuku glanced over towards the door and saw his other girlfriend quietly waiting by the door. He could see all of them looked worried. "You can come here." He said softly and held out a hand in their direction. He almost apologized again, when he saw the rest of his girlfriends walking over to him and slowly moved to stand around him and Momo. He felt Momo get off his lap after placing another kiss on his lips.
"It's ok Zuzu," Mei said sitting sideways on his lap. "We are here for you." She pulled him close to plant a loving kiss on his lips.
"Thanks Mei," Izuku whispered, caressing her cheek. "Thanks, Momo."
Mei smiled and moved to stand next to Momo as Setsuna slid onto Izuku's lap and wrapped him into a tight hug. "We got you handsome," Setsuna said, peppering his face with little kisses.
Ochako took Setsuna's place and gave him a very tender kiss. "Let us take care of you now.” She whispered, holding him close.
Izuku felt very touched and was unable to speak at the feeling of the girls taking care of him.
Kyoka sat beside Izuku and waited for Ochako to move before cuddling into his side. “You were there for me when I sang at the concert.” She whispered, kissing his neck. “Let me be here for you.”
Pony gently took Izuku's face in each of her hands and pulled him into a kiss. "I'm stronger than I look. Let me help carry the weight."
“Kyoka, Pony," Izuku murmured, smiling at them. “I don’t know what to say.” Each girl kissed his cheek as Mina and Toru walked over together. Mina sat down on his right and Toru on his left.
Mina kissed his cheek and hugged his side. “You saved me from Bakudouche and I fell for your kind heart," Mina said, letting her cheeks tint a light purple. "Let us tend to you for change."
"You made me visible Izu," Toru said, pressing her lips to his. "You make me feel special and I enjoy every minute of it." She wrapped her tail around his wrist. “Can you tell us what happened?”
Izuku gestured for all of them to join him on the couch. "I'll start from the beginning." He told them as his girlfriends sat around him. Izuku smiled at them as he felt their love and affection. Izuku told all of them about his conversation with the Forger family and hateful encounter with the CEO from Detnerat. The girls were furious after hearing what the man called Izuku. Izuku saw a look in Mei's eyes and reached out to stop her. "Mei no."
"Mei Yes." She replied trying to escape but Izuku and the other girls had a good grip on her. "I am revoking his rights to have his kneecaps in one piece." She grumbled as Izuku kissed her forehead.
"While I appreciate the thought Mei," Izuku said with a smile on his face. "I don't want you to get in trouble for my sake." He managed to free his arm and pat Mei on the head.
“I agree with Mei.” Pony said with an angry pout. “I just want to talk with him.”
Izuku reached over and caressed her face. "Pony, honey." He said quietly, shifting enough to kiss her nose. "There would be violence, not talking."
Pony calmed and let out a sigh. “Fair. She said snuggling back into the pile.
Izuku looked at each girl before kissing them. "I love you girls," Izuku said, feeling himself calming down from his panic attack. “Thank you for coming to help me.”
The girls hugged him tightly and smothered him with kisses while each girl murmured back "I love you too." The pile stayed like this until Hound Dog walked into his office and found them all together on the couch.
“I am glad to see you are doing better Izuku.” Hound Dog said with a slight grin on his face. “If you are alright with it, would you like to talk about what happened?”
Izuku nodded his head slowly. “Can they stay with me?” He asked softly while clinging to the girls.
Hound Dog was silent for a few moments before nodding his head. "If that will make you feel comfortable. I will allow it." He said moving to take a seat in his chair. "How about we start from the beginning and we can talk about it.” He clicked his pen and prepared to make some notes.
Rikiya sat at the conference table as his subordinates sat quietly as the head accountant was going over the projected losses from losing the UA contract. Rikiya was taking deep breaths to keep from losing his temper and activating his quirk Stress and destroying everything in his path. His company was projected to lose millions of dollars and projected to lose hundreds of millions from the loss of UA and Ketsubutsu Academy. "We need to get on damage control and get our version of the story out ASAP.” He growled out.
“I’ll get on that sir. Curious replied quickly and got out her laptop and went to work. “I will try and spin this as UA is cutting their budget to replace Detnerat gear with substandard equipment.” Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she started to type her story.
"Trumpet, Get in touch with your contacts in the government," Rikiya said looking at his lieutenant. “I want some kind of law passed to help us get that contract back with UA.”
"I'm on it, sir." Trumpet replied with a nod and started typing on his phone.
Rikiya looked over at another one of his lieutenants. “Skeptic, start digging into information on Izuku Midoriya and his family. I want to know everything about that boy and anyone connected to him.” He grit his teeth thinking of how disrespectful that thing was. Rikiya would ruin that boy and destroy everything he loved. He was broken from his musing when Curious answered a phone call and went pale.
"Oh shit," Curious said as she typed in something on her computer and covered her head with her hands. "Nezu beat us to it."
“What?” Rikiya exclaimed, getting up and walking over to look at her computer screen. As he read the title of the article his blood ran cold. It was published by one of their rival's news agencies which made it worse for them.
UA Ends Contract with Detnerat Due to Substandard Costumes and Equipment
It was revealed early this morning that after a meeting between Principal Nezu of UA and Rikiya Yotsubashi the CEO of Detnerat, that UA would be ending their 3 years contract and looking for a new Support Company to provide its Hero students with Costumes and support gear. According to Principal Nezu, this split was a result of an investigation into ineffective costumes and gear provided by Detnerat that resulted in students being injured due to defective or improperly made equipment malfunctioning and injured students. UA and its new sister school Ketsubutsu Academy will no longer be using any equipment made by Detnerat or any of its subsidiaries.
Principal Nezu has stated that both schools will be looking from a list of companies from a reliable source as both Principals want the safety of their students to be their top priority and that Detnerat standards have fallen below what they are willing to accept. All incident reports were made available to this reporter and this information is now available on our paper's website for our viewers to read for themselves.
“FUCK!” Rikiya screamed as he grabbed his chair and threw it across the room causing it to explode against the wall. He should have known that damn rat would pull something like this. This would set back the MLA's plans for months. Maybe even years at the projected losses in his head were skyrocketing. "Trumpet, Skeptic, I want you two on damage control and I want you to get with Legal to salvage as many of our contracts as we can.”
Both men nodded their heads and hurried out of the office. Rikiya turned to look at Curious with a piercing look. "SPD is Nezu’s pet project and I want you on the ground in Musutafu to dig up anything that will give that rat a taste of his own medicine." He ordered moving to stare out the window at his perfect city. "Find an officer and do what you do best to get information out of him. Don't fail me."
“I’ll rent an apartment nearby and start looking for a new cop hangout.” Curious said gathering up her things and giving her leaders a salute before hurrying out of the conference room.
Rikiya left the conference room a few minutes later and made his way to his office. He locked the door and went to a hidden room in his office and grabbed a special phone that could not be tracked and tapped the coded contact.
“I must say, I am surprised to hear from you, Re-Destro.”
"Things have changed," Re-Destro replied with a grimace. “Is that deal still open with your boss?” He was now very desperate for funds and this could buy him some time. “Count me and my organization in.”
“Haha. I am looking forward to our business together. I shall swing by with my usual bag of goodies for you to purchase. With a discount of course.”
“Glad to hear it Broodwing," Re-Destro said, grinning at the prospects of the advanced tech that would more than make up for his losses. “See you soon.” He hung up the phone and set it down. He walked out of the hidden room with a smile on his face. “Soon I will take my proper place as ruler of Japan.” He poured himself a drink and leaned back in his office chair thinking about all that money and power in his future.
After the impromptu session with Hound Dog, he gave Izuku some more exercises to try and suggestions for helping him manage his panic attacks. Momo took the notes for him as the other girls ran their fingers through his hair to soothe him. As they went back to class, Mei stole a kiss before heading back to the Support lab. The rest of them went back to their classes to finish the rest of the day. One of the girls was always at his side.
When the day finally came to an end, the girls met in their usual sport for some more cuddles. Izuku made his clones to give them one each with a Pony and Mei cuddling up to a clone. “Tomorrow night, would you girls like to come to the apartment?” He asked, looking around at his girlfriends. “Dinner and cuddles on the couch with a movie?”
“I’m in!” Mina said quickly. “I have to head home tonight. Mom wants as much family time together before I move into the dorms.”
“I want in on the cuddles too. Same with my mom.” Toru said, kissing Izuku on the cheek. “She had been in a good mood the last few days and she wants some more family time before the dorms open.”
Ochako nodded her head. “My parents want the same thing. Mom and Dad have been hugging me every chance he gets." She explained resting her head on Izuku's chest. "I would like some cuddles."
“Well, Dibs on cuddling first with Izuku tomorrow night,” Kyoka said with a smirk as the other girls scowled at her. “Guess all our parents had the same idea. I’m sure mine will want quality time as well.”
"Mom and I are going to go over the paperwork for my company," Mei said beaming with pride. "She works on campus so I will get to see her pretty often. I want some cuddles with Zuzu."
"Mom wants to train some when I get home." Pony said with a sigh. "She wants me to go far in the Sports Festival. Tomorrow can be my rest day." She snuggled closer to the pile and let out a content sigh.
Setsuna sighed as she detached her hand and ran her fingers through Izuku's hair before detaching her head to kiss him on the lips. "I'm sure Momo and I will be in the same boat, so tomorrow sounds good to me." She said, still running her fingers through his fluffy hair.
Momo pressed her lips to Izuku's temple. "That sounds lovely darling." She said softly. "That and I am sure that Eri and Raphtalia will be sad not to see us much this week."
Izuku nodded his head. "That's true. They love all you girls." He said with a bright smile. "I can't think of anyone better for them to call Mama." He laughed as the girls surged forward and smothered him with kisses, which he returned as best he could.
As they forced themselves to say their goodbyes for the day, Izuku went to pick up his daughters from their classroom. He smiled as his daughter launched themselves at him. Izuku caught them and gave them a bit of a twirl before smiling as they giggled and laughed. "Did you girls have a fun day?" He asked as they both tried to start talking to him at the same time. “Ok, ok girls, one at a time girls.”
"Papa!" Eri said cutting off her sister. "I made a new friend! Her name is Anya." Eri was beaming with delight at making another friend.
"Yeah, Papa," Raphtalia said with a squeal. “Anya was so nice to us. Can she come over sometime to play?” She gave Izuku a slight pout. “Please?”
Izuku chuckled and let out an exaggerated sigh. "Well, I will talk with her parents and see if we can find a time that works for them." He said unable to suppress another chuckle as the girls started to cheer and squeal with happiness. “Alright girls, go get your things and we'll go meet Grandma at her office.”
"Ok, Papa," Eri replied, scurrying off to get her bag.
"Grandma came by at lunch and talked with Miss Todoroki," Rapthilia said after walking back with her backpack.
"Oh," Izuku said, a bit surprised as he watched the teacher coming towards the three of them. “Miss Todoroki.”
“Call me Fuyumi please.” She replied with a smile. “Your mother stopped by to invite Shoto, Natsuo, and I over to your apartment for dinner tonight.” She adjusted the strap on her shoulder. “I will see you three in a bit.”
"I guess so," Izuku said, leading his daughters out of the classroom. "See you and your family soon." He called back as they headed towards the Nurses office. He suppressed a smirk knowing there would be a big surprise for the Todoroki siblings. "Tell me about your day, girls."
Eri and Raphtalia took turns telling about their day with their new friend Anya and what they learned in class that day. Izuku made sure to listen to them as they walked down the hall.
After meeting up with his Mom, they made a short stop at the store to get some drinks before returning to the apartment. As they walked into the apartment the smells of dinner reached them as they all let out a sigh at the delicious smell.
"We're home dear," Inko called out, walking over to pull Rei into a kiss. "It smells delicious. What did you make?" She asked, looking at the stove.
Rei giggled and smiled. “I made cold soba since it’s my children’s favorite meal and I also made Katsudon for the Midoryia family as well.” She puffed out her chest with pride. “Hope everyone is hungry.”
"Starving," Izuku said, rubbing his stomach. "I think we are just waiting for people to arrive." He tried to sneak a little before dinner but Rei caught him and swatted his hand away.
Inko nodded her head. “Kaina and Nana are on their way over. Nemuri is watching Kota at her apartment. Yu is working late on a case. Rumi and Ryuko already had plans.” She explained starting to set the table. “I think we may have another guest, but we’ll have to wait and see.”
Izuku nodded his head and went to work with his daughter to make sure their homework was done. Izuku worked on his homework and helped Eri and Rapthilia when they needed it. He glanced over to see his mom was helping Rei finish up dinner. Izuku smiled at their happiness and went back to his school work to give them some privacy.
Nana and Kaina arrived home next and both women were ambushed by two tiny missiles. Izuku looked over their homework before putting it away for them. “Hey sis, Mama Kai.” He called out before walking over to hug them both.
"Hey Bro," Nana replied with a giggling Raphtalia tucked under her arm. “Seems I found something of yours Izuku.” She grinned as she started to tickle the tanuki.
“No fair Auntie Nana!” Raphtalia squealed as she tried to escape.
Kaina laughed as she had Eri on her hip. "Hey, there bunny.” She greeted and hugged Izuku. “How was your day?”
Izuku let out a sigh. “I’ll fill you all in before our guests.” He said gesturing to the table. “I had a panic attack.”
Inko was at his side in a flash. “Nezu gave me the cliff notes.” She said, pulling her son into a motherly hug. “Want to talk about it?”
"Yeah, talking to the girls and Hound Dog helped," Izuku said, taking a seat at the table. "I was doing fine until we met with the CEO of Detnerat.” He then went into detail about his encounter with Rikiya Yotsubashi and how it ended with him being called names and being grabbed by the collar of his shirt.
Izuku saw the anger in the eyes of his Mother, Nana, and Kaina. He glanced over to see Rei was taking calming breaths. “Nezu took care of it. He lost the contract for the school and blacklisted his company.” Izuku said quickly, trying to calm them down and prevent them from hunting the man down. “Nezu and I hit him where it hurt. In his company’s profits.
"Jerk," Nana grumbled, making sure not to swear in front of her nieces. "Glad to hear he got what was coming to him."
Kaina let out a sigh. "I'll talk with Sarah about having a couple of officers keep tabs on him when he comes back into the area." She said, crossing her arms. "Men like that don't like losing that kind of money and go quietly into the night.”
Inko was holding her son tightly and forcing herself to calm down. She was mentally adding the man to his list of people to deal with personally. "I'm sorry baby." She said softly to her son. "You earned your place at UA and I am very proud of you."
"Thanks, mom," Izuku said as Kaina Nana got up to join the hug. He glanced over to see Rei was unsure what to do. “Come on. You’re family, join in on the hug.”
Rei got up and joined the hug as Eri and Raphtalia squeezed themselves into the hug. “Thank you Izuku.” She said with a big smile on her face as she hugged him a bit tight.
A knock at the door got everyone's attention. They separated from the group hug and Rei started to get nervous. “Will they be happy to see me?” She asked, afraid of her children hating her. It had been a while since they had visited. Rei knew it was all her now Ex-husbands doings, but her fear of being rejected by her children was growing.
Inko and Kaina walked over to comfort her. “I am sure they will be very happy to see you. “Inko whispered to soothe her.
"I'm sure they will be a little more than surprised to see you here. "Kaina said, looking over at Izuku. "Can you answer the door?"
"On it," Izuku said, opening the door. "Hello, why don't you all come inside? Nice to see you again Fuyumi, Shoto.” He greeted me with a wave. "You must be Natsuo."
“Yeah, nice to meet in person Izuku," Natsuo said with a grin. "This is my girlfriend Kaoruko and that is Fuyumi’s fiancé Moe.”
"Sup my man," Moe said with a smirk on her face. "I've heard a lot about you."
"Pleasure to meet you Izuku," Kaoruko said brightly. "I'd love to ask you a few questions later on if we have a chance.
“All good things I hope and I’d love to answer some questions," Izuku said as his daughter ran up and started talking to Fuyumi.
Natsuo started to chuckle as he turned to look around the room and he froze in place. “Mom?” He asked, looking surprised and confused.
Fuyumi's eyes snapped in the direction of her mother and she covered her mouth in surprise.
Shoto's eyes went wide. "I-Is that really you Mom?" He asked as his voice shook slightly.
"It's me," Rei said as tears ran down her face. "I-I got free of that place and divorced your father." She struggled to form words as was trying not to sob. Rei was about to say more when Fuyumi ran full force into her and started crying.
“Mommy.” Fuyumi cried as she clung to the woman tightly. “I’ve missed you so much.”
Rei held her tightly and kissed the top of her head. “I’ve missed you too, my snow princess.” She muttered back as she saw Natsuo walking over to her. “There's my prince.”
Natsuo hurried and joined the hug. “I tried so many times to get you out of that hellhole.” He said, trying to cry. “I’m sorry Mom.” He latched on to her.
"Shh," Rei whispered and kissed her son's temple. "I know, baby. It's alright. I'm out now." She looked over to see the scared look on her baby boy's face. She moved back and slowly started walking towards Shoto. “It’s been a while my special Frostspark.”
"M-Mom," Shoto said in a shaky voice. "I-I-I missed you and I'm sorry you got locked away because of me." He felt tears run down his face. He wanted to move forward, but he couldn't move. "Mom-I." He was cut off as he felt his mother wrap her arms around him in a loving embrace. He hugged her tightly as the dam broke and he sobbed into her shirt.
"It was never your fault my beautiful baby boy," Rei said in a soothing voice. "Your father was the one who tossed me in that place after I threatened to ruin him for hurting you and giving you that scar."
Shoto froze in place. “W-What?” He asked, confused. “I-I remember that day.” He thought back to that memory of his mother hitting him in the face with scalding water and then her being dragged away. “How?”
Rei sighed. “Let’s all go to the living room.” She suggested guiding her son to the couch and gestured for Natsuo and Fuyumi to follow her. After sitting down on the couch with all three of her children she let out a long breath. “Enji always had some kind of connections in the Commission. They allowed him to act the way he does without consequences.”
"I don't know why they suck up to him so much," Inko grumbled as she reached to give Rei's shoulder a supportive squeeze.
Rei smiled at Inko before looking at Shoto. "Your father was training you and when you wouldn't get back up he decided to punish you for it." She explained trying not to let her hands start shaking. "I was coming to get you for lunch. When I walked into the room, you were laying on the ground. And Enji pressed his flame-covered hand to your face." She stifled a sob as she caressed Shoto’s face. “I attacked him and rushed you to the hospital.”
“Why can’t I remember this?” Shoto asked, latching onto his mother. “Why do I remember this differently?”
Izuku crossed his arms. “It has to be a Quirk." He said getting everyone's attention. "Nezu and I have been talking about people suddenly changing their testimony in cases against certain members of the Commission. We assumed it had to be a Quirk, intimidation tactics, or both.”
"I've never heard of them, but they may keep it a secret from everyone," Kaina said, crossing her arms and thinking back to her interactions with the higher-ups back in the day. "It’s quite possible that Enji knew about it from one of his contacts. Any idea who his handler was?”
"Nero Monoma." Rei spat out angrily. When she saw the disgusted look on the faces of most people in the room. "I take it you all have met him."
"Unfortunately," Izuku replied with a grimace. "Now things are adding up." Kaina walked over and pulled Izuku into a hug.
Natsuo leaned back on the couch. “Is Mom safe here?” He asked concerned about her wellbeing. “I don’t think Endeavor is going to just leave her alone regardless if he signed divorce papers.”
Inko chuckled. "Nezu and I took care of that personally." She said in a smug tone of voice. "We have enough dirt on him to keep him on a leash." Inko clapped her hands together. “Now, how about we all enjoy our dinner and leave the burning trash bag as a problem for another day."
Moe snorted at her old boss being called a burning trash bag. “I like her.” She said pointing at Inko.
"That sounds lovely," Rei said, standing up and turning to Moe and Kaoruko. "I'd like to know more about my son's girlfriend and my daughter's fiancé." She said with a teasing smile. "Has Shoto got his eyes on someone?”
Fuyumi was about to say something when Shoto covered her mouth with his hand. “I have a friend and her name is Reiko.” He said in a monotone voice.
"Tell me everything," Rei said, pulling Moe, Fuyumi, and Kaoruko to the table. "Sit next to me, please. I'd like to ask you, girls, some questions.”
Fuyumi and Natsuo groaned at this and took a seat across from their partners. Shoto went and sat down next to Izuku.
"Did you save me, Mom?" Shoto asked Izuku with a curious gaze.
Izuku shook his head. “No, it was all my Mom and Mama Kai.” He said pointing to the two women. “They are the ones to get her out of that hospital and bring her here to safety.”
Shoto nodded his head. “I see. I will thank you after dinner.” He said as a bowl was placed in front of him. “Cold Soba?” Shoto caressed the bowl like it was made of precious metal and it needed to be protected.
Rei smiled at her children. I made enough for our guests” She said, picking up her chopsticks. “I wanted to make my family their favorite dish since it’s our first dinner together in such a long time.” She gestured to everyone at the table. “Please dig in.”
The kitchen was so filled with conversation and content sighs as they all started eating. Rei took the opportunity to catch up with her children and meet their paramours. Inko and Kaina were whispering to one another and giggling about something. Shoto and Izuku were exchanging phone numbers while talking about various things from their Zords to movie suggestions for Shoto. As the meal came to an end Rei looked over at her future daughter-in-laws.
"I have to say, my children picked good women," Rei said with a proud smile on her face. "I want to thank you, girls, for taking care of my children and making them happy." She patted both Moe and Kaoruko on the back. “I hope we can get together again very soon.”
"Sounds good to me," Moe replied, reaching across the table to take Fuyumi's hand. "She is very important to me and I want her to reconnect with you."
"Moe," Fuyumi said softly as she gave her fiancé's hand a gentle squeeze.
Rei beamed at the two of them. “Now when is the wedding? I would like to know what you have so far.” She asked, looking between her daughter and her fiancé.
Both Moe and Fuyumi blushed and started fumbling to find the answer. Natsuo started to snicker and Rei glanced over at him with the same smile. "Don't laugh mister." She said in a motherly tone. "I expect you to marry this lovely woman and give me blue-skinned grandbabies with white hair at some point."
Natsuo choked on air and his face turned a bright red while Kaoruko's face turned purple and a series of bubbles rose off her, filling the room with the scent of roses.
“Mom!’ Natsuo groaned out as he composed himself.
Rei just shrugged. "Don't mom me." She said, waving off her son's groan. "She is a lovely girl."
"T-Thank you, ma'am," Kaoruko replied through her hands. She had covered her face with her hands to hide her embarrassment.
"Please call me Rei dear." She replied sweetly before looking over at Shoto. "I would like to meet your friend Reiko. She sounds like a lovely girl."
Shoto just nodded his head as he felt a pit in his stomach as he saw a gleam in his Mothers eyes.
Izuku kept his comments to himself as it was nice not to be on the receiving end of the teasing. He patted Shoto on the shoulder as he looked over to see Nana snickering into her hand as she talked with Eri and Raphtalia.
Inko decided now was the time to take pity on Rei's children and cleared her throat. "I think now would be the time to talk about a few changes coming soon." She said looking at Nana. "Would you like to go first, dear?"
Nana smirked and pulled out an ID from her pocket. “I would be delighted. Nana said, holding it up to show the table. “Starting today. Nana Midoriya is the new 3rd-year Combat instructor."
"That's great Sis," Izuku said, giving her a big smile. "One step closer to getting your license back." He knew that she had been going stir crazy since she got out of cryo. She was itching to get back in the sky.
Nana nodded her head. “Yep, Nezu said that he submitted my application to the IHS and I should hear from them in a week or two.”
Moe looked over at Nana and tapped her chin. “Are you a Pro?” Moe asked, still staring at the older woman. “I don’t think I’ve seen you in the news or on the Heronet.”
"I was," Nana replied, taking a sip of water from her glass. "I was out for medical reasons for a while and now I am trying to get back in the field.” She shared a glance with Inko before looking back at Moe.
Kaoruko studied Nana for a moment before narrowing her eyes slightly. “Part of that was true, but the way you looked at Inko tells me there is more to the story.”
Kaina smirked. “Sharp as always Kaoruko.” She said with a hint of pride in her voice. “Inko, should we get the sphere?”
"I think it would be for the best," Inko replied, getting up from the table and coming back a minute later. "Now, I know this may be a bit much to believe, but I will tell you this story and please hold your questions until the end.
Fuyumi tilted her head as she gave Inko a quizzical look. “What story?” She asked giving Inko her full attention.
"Why do I have a feeling this is going to be weird," Natsuo said leaning back in his chair.
Izuku and Nana shared a look as they scooped up Eri and Raphtalia to keep them away from parts of the story. They checked on the group from time to time as Inko filled them in on her past. After the sphere turned off Izuku led his daughters and sister back into the kitchen. Izuku had to suppress a snicker at the stunned looks on their guest's faces.
"I've been talking with an alien Queen," Fuyumi muttered looking at Inko. "This is so cool."
Natsuo opened his mouth a few times before finding the words. “You came around when Fuyumi and I were kids.” He said, staring at Inko intently. “You would come around when Endeavor was away and visit with mom.”
“How did I not see it?” Fuyumi asked jumping out of her chair to hug the older woman. “You used to tell me stories about Mom and taught me how to read.” She pulled back to beam at Inko. “You were the reason I wanted to become a teacher.”
Inko blushed a bit and giggled. "Well, you were fun to teach and eager to learn." She replied, giving Fuyumi a bright smile. "From how my granddaughters tell it. You are the best teacher ever."
Fuyumi blushed at this and Moe came to pat her fiancé on the back. "Just take the compliment babe," Moe said with a toothy grin. "Not very often when you get a compliment from an alien Queen."
“Our boss is dating an alien from another dimension.” Kaoruko blurted out before covering her mouth. “S-Sorry boss.”
Kaina just started laughing. “Relax Kaoruko,” She said, holding her stomach as she laughed a bit more. “Trust me it was a big surprise for me too.”
"Same here," Rei said, standing up to pull Inko into a hug. "I just found out about her past after Inko and Kaina got me out of the hospital. Still pretty amazing when you think about it." She pressed a kiss to Inko's cheek before freezing. "Oops.” Rei turned to see the stunned looks on all three of her children. “Uh, surprise?”
Natsuo's jaw dropped as he gaped at his Mother. Fuyumi's eyes went wide making her look like a deer in the headlights. Even Shoto's normally stoic expression was replaced by a look of surprise.
“Explain please?” Shoto asked after his brain finally rebooted enough as Natsuo and Fuyumi nodded their heads in agreement at the question.
“Well,” Rei said with a nervous chuckle. “Inko and I were a thing before I was forced to marry your father.” She explained grabbing Inko's hand for emotional support. "So, after she rescued me. We picked up where we left off after Kaina invited me to join her and Inko in their relationship."
Izuku kept his comment to himself as he shuddered at the memory of walking in on them.
"This is better than TV," Moe said looking at her Fiancé. "Fuyumi, you ok?"
Fuyumi rushed forward to hug her mother. "I am so happy for you!' She squealed. "It's a bit of a surprise, but you look much happier than when you were with dad."
Natsuo walked over and hugged Inko. “Take care of my Mom please.” He whispered. “I want her to be happy after dealing with Endeavor.”
"You have my word Natsuo." She replied, patting his cheek. Rei and Kaina's happiness is important to me."
Shoto blinked a few times before looking at Izuku. "This makes us brothers." He said in his usual tone, but with a hint of a smile on his face.
Izuku reached over to pat Shoto on the back. "I can live with that." He said, letting a smirk appear on his face. "I need a few brothers to help me from being overwhelmed by having so many sisters."
"Still outnumbered 6 girls to 3 boys." Nan chimed in from her seat. "Girls still rule if we add in girlfriends."
Izuku grumbled under his breath. "I think Mom had some other news she wanted to tell us." He said, trying to change the subject. "Go ahead, Mom."
"Well, the apartment is not big enough for all of us," Inko said, taking her seat at the table. "I dipped into some of my secret funds and had Mona help us find some land to build a home for all of us." She said looking at the excited faces at the table. "It will have the main house and smaller homes for everyone to have their own space but still be close enough to have meals together." She held up her hand to let her finish telling her news. “The other part is, Nezu has hired me to be the Dorm Manager and Rei has been hired as my assistant. That means when the Dorm opens, I will be living on the top floor in a large apartment with Kaina, Rei, Rapthilia, and Eri. Izuku's dorm apartment will be right next to it for his daughters to see him as much as they want."
Cheers broke out at the table as they moved to hug Inko and the other in celebration.
"I move into the Staff dorms when Izuku's dorms open," Nana said, hugging her mother. "That means more quality family time."
"Exactly," Inko said looking at Natsuo and Fuyumi. "You two have an open invitation to join us for family dinner along with Moe and Kaoruko."
"That would be wonderful," Kaoruko replied excitedly.
Moe wrapped an arm around Fuyumi's waist. "Can't wait. I could use some more embarrassing stories on her.”
“Careful dear," Fuyumi said glaring at Moe. “I know where your skeletons are buried.”
Eri walked over and tugged on Izuku's pant leg. "Papa, does that make our teacher our Aunt?" She asked innocently.
Izuku smiled at her. “Well, yes.” He said pointing to Shoto and Natsuo. “They are your Uncles.”
“Ok!” Eri said, turning to hug Shoto. “Hey, Uncle Shoto. Welcome to the family.”
Shoto slowly reached down to pat Eri on the head. “Thank you, Eri." He replied to the little girl as he looked around the room. "This feels nice." Shoto liked how warm and comfortable all this chaos seemed as Eri and Raphtalia ran over to talk with Natsuo and Fuyumi.
Izuku nodded his head. "Yeah, it is." Izuku agreed with his brother. “The family just keeps getting bigger.”
"Good," Shoto said looking at Izuku. "Just so you know, I'll be telling people that you're my little brother." He said off-handed.
“Oi.” Izuku shot back at him. “Why are you the older brother?”
Shoto just shrugged. "I was born first." He replied, crossing his arms. "I found out about your birthday from the internet. "So, that makes you the youngest."
"Drat," Izuku said, letting out a large sigh. "Alright. I'll take it." Izuku gestured to the couch. "Let me fill you in on who knows about the family secret."
"Lead the way Bro," Shoto said, gesturing for Izuku to go first.
Izuku just smiled as he walked over to the couch. He was excited to see what happened next with his family.
Inko looked over to see a white owl sitting on the window sill. "Oh, looks like she came after all." She said walking over to open the window. "Nice of you to show up."
The owl landed on the floor and shifted back into a woman, many of them recognized from Inko memories. "Well, it's harder than it looks to find the place from the sky." Dulcea scoffed. She walked over to pull Inko into a hug. "Thank you for the invitation. I have been very excited to meet my grandchildren."
Izuku and Nana shared a look before shrugging their shoulders and greeted Dulcea together. "Hey, Grandma."

Chapter Text
Neito was jarred from a restless sleep when his alarm went off. Since having his appendix taken out, he had been having intense headaches and his memories were all jumbled together. Neito stumbled out of his bed and made it to his bathroom to splash cold water on his face. He looked in the mirror and noted the dark bags under his eyes, his face was drawn and pale.
“What is wrong with me?” Neito asked his reflection before running through a shower. As the water ran down his face, he recalled his dream.
“Mama!” 6y/o Neito called before running to a woman wearing a black and gold training gi. "You're home!" The woman had been in the middle of a series of martial katas. The woman had jet black hair and gray eyes. She had an average height and build.
Maria chucked before dropping into a crouch and picked her son up. “There's my baby boy.” She smiled while spinning her son around and laughed as Neito started to giggle. “I got home late last night.”
“I missed you, Mom," Neito said, hugging the woman tighter. "Can we go to the park later? Dad has been too busy with work.” He gave his mother a begging look.
“Sure, thing baby," Maria said, kissing her son's forehead. "Let me go take a shower and we'll head out."
Neito cheered as he hurried to get changed into his play clothes.
Neito winced as his head started to throb. He almost fell to his knees from the pain but managed to catch himself. He had been having dreams like this since his surgery. His Mom doted on him with hugs and kissed him goodnight after tucking him in. Taking him to the park and teaching him her family’s martial art style. Neito remembered a lot of happy memories with her.
There was only one problem with them. They were wrong.
He remembered her being too busy training for tournaments to make time for him and that it was his Father that took him to the park or out of the house. His mother walked out on him when he was 7. She had a big fight with his father and left for a martial arts tournament. A few days later his Father told him his Mother had filed for divorce and left the country.
Neito had been seeing a doctor for his headaches and it had helped at first, but they were coming back faster and faster after each visit. He had another appointment later this morning and he hoped for some relief. Neito was exhausted and the headaches were taking their toll on him. He had already been in two fights this week. One was with Denki Kaminari and the other was with Itsuka Kendo. He was currently on a 7-day suspension and would be allowed to move in with the rest of his classmates pending his hearing at the end of his suspension.
He stepped out of the shower and turned to look in the mirror and nearly jumped in fear when he saw a black and gold lion staring back at him. Neito rubbed his eyes and looked at the mirror again and saw his reflection. “I’m starting to lose it.” He muttered before leaving the bathroom.
Nero was sitting in his chair contemplating his life at the moment. With Fugaku now in custody, he was without an ally in Internal Affairs. The President was looking over all of his files with a fine tooth comb looking for anything to arrest him on. He was unable to help out a few of his friends due to the heat he was getting from the President. Nero shook his head at the list of currently arrested members of Pure World. So far, no one had been able to make a connection to their memberships with the hate group Pure World, but that was only a matter of time.
Nero was also concerned with what documents that arrogant bastard Fugaku kept at his house. Nero had warned the man about keeping copies of anything incriminating, but Fugaku thought he was invincible and now, he was in jail.
There was also his son to be concerned about. Nero had noted his son's change in behavior, but he knew that was from having his memories overwritten so many times. The memories were breaking down faster each time and now Neito was remembering things that are better left buried in the past. Nero had to make a decision on how to handle his only son and heir. After a few minutes of deep thinking, he made a call and decided to cut his losses. He was still relatively young and could have more children.
“What?”
Nero swallowed hard as heard the annoyance in All for One's voice. "My son's memories are coming back. I need to move the abduction date up to today." He said quickly. "I need it to look like we were attacked on the way to his doctor's appointment. I need to look innocent to keep feeding you information about the Commission."
The phone went silent for almost a full minute and Nero was sweating bullets from the fear of angering such a powerful man.
“Fine. I will send you a location to meet with Kurogiri. One hour. Don’t be late.”
Click
Nero let out a breath and nearly sagged in his chair in relief. He looked at his phone and noted the time. He hurried about the house making sure everything was in place. Nero made a call to his secretary to check his messages and remind her that he would be later getting into the office due to his son's doctor's appointment. After looking over a few documents, Nero sent them to his friend Hisashi as he had requested before purging his computer of any record of the information.
Now he needed to wait for them to send the meeting location and get there in time to keep from getting on All for One's bad side. Nero had everything he wanted and soon he would get more power and if it cost his son's life, then so be it.
Neito was leaning against the passenger side door with his hand over his face. The bright light of the sun was causing his head to throb. He had sat quietly the entire drive from the house. Neito could tell his father was disappointed in him since the man had barely said 10 words to him all morning.
Neito was doing his best to ignore the images of his mother flashing in his mind. He was just hoping the doctor could make his headaches go away before his suspension was over. He was starting to feel nauseated from the pain.
"We're here," Nero said shortly as he turned off the car and opened the door. "Get out."
Neito grunted as he unbuckled his seatbelt and opened the car door. Neito was still covering his eyes when he stepped out of the car and winced when he moved his hand. It took a few moments for his vision to clear and he looked around confused at first. He was standing under an overpass just off the highway. "Father," Neito said, taking a step closer to the car. "What is going on?"
Nero ignored his son's question as a moment later Kurogiri and Scorpina stepped out of a portal along with a swarm of putties. “Our arrangement is complete Kurogiri.” He said, holding out his hand. “My fee?”
Kurogiri stared at the man for a long moment before opening a smaller portal and pulled out a small back briefcase. “It’s all there.” He said in a digested voice. “All 500,000 US dollars.”
Nero smirked as he took the briefcase. “Then you can have my worthless offspring.” He said, turning to look at Neito. “Nothing personal, but you have become a liability.”
"Father!" Neito cried out reaching for the man but was grabbed by several putties and they forced him to the ground. "Father! Help me!"
“Oh, shut up," Nero said, setting the briefcase in the trunk of his car. "You have been useful for so long, but you just can’t keep from embarrassing me. You performed terribly at the Entrance exam and I had to beg my brother to get you into the Hero Course. You lost to a Quirkless freak and now you embarrass me with your suspension!" He glared at Neito with a look of disgust on his face. “I should have gotten rid of you the same way I did your traitorous mother.”
Neito looked at his father in utter confusion as the putties dragged him toward the portal Kurogiri had opened. “No!” He screamed trying to break free from the Putties as their grip was too strong. “FATHER!” Neito reached out for the man as he was pulled through the portal.
Nero pulled out a cigarette and lit it. "Now," He said, blowing out a puff of smoke. "We need to make this look real. Enough injuries to make it seem like my son was taken by force and I was unable to stop you." He watched as a moment later several cogs and putties appeared after Scorpina snapped her fingers as they started to attack the car.
The passenger door was ripped off and all the windows were either shattered or cracked. The car looked like it had been sitting in some faraway warzone.
"Good," Nero said, flicking the remains of his cigarette away. "Now, who will rough me up a bit?"
Scorpina gave him a sickly-sweet smile. “Allow me.” She said, cracking her knuckles. “Don’t scream too much.”
“What?” Nero asked before a metal gauntlet slammed into his face sending him to the ground. “What the fuck!”
Scorpina just laughed as she reached down to grab the fool by his collar and started beating him within an inch of his life. "You monkeys disgust me." She told Nero while thrashing him with her armored fist. "You turn on each other for something as petty as money." She stomped on one of his legs, shattering it with ease. Scorpina went on to break several more bones to make Nero scream even louder. “You call us monsters or villains, but you just sold out your own son.” Scorpina relished in the scream and begging. “I won’t kill you just yet. You’re still useful to our needs, but that won’t last forever.”
Nero was choking on his own blood as he struggled to breathe.
"Now, try not to pass out," Scorpina said before laughing at the fool. She reached down and took his phone out of his pocket. "I'd hate for you to die choking on your own blood.” Scorpina stood up and walked over to Kurogiri. “Let’s go.”
"Of course," Kurogiri said, opening a portal and following behind the villainess.
Nero fumbled with his phone and had to spit out a mouthful of blood so he could call for help. “B-Bitch.” He grunted out as he dialed the number to call in his attack. “Officer down. Trance this call. Officer down.”
Neito struggled as he was strapped to a medical table. “Let me go!” He screamed at the creatures as he tried to break free of the restraints. “You can’t do this!”
"Oh, but I can." Dr. Giraki said walking over with a needle in hand. "Stay still or this will hurt even more than it has to."
Neito hissed as the needle pierced his arm and glowered at the man as he took a vial of blood. His head was throbbing as his father's words echoed in his mind. He felt excruciating pain as something in his mind broke and his memories started to rush through his head.
“I got you!” Maria said as she scooped up her giggling son. “Now time for your kisses!” She started to pepper Neito with motherly kisses.
“Mommy!” Neito said between giggles.
"Happy Birthday my little lion," Maria said, setting the birthday cake in front of him. "Make a wish and blow out the candles."
"Yeah!" Neito said, blowing out the candles as his mother hugged him and handed him his first present to open. "Thanks, Mom!" He said, hugging his black and gold lion to his chest.
"Are you sure you got everything?" Maria asked, looking down at her son. "We are not coming back here Cub."
Neito held up his bag and turned to show his mom his backpack. "I got my stuff, Mommy.” He said, giving her a brave smile. “Daddy is not going to be happy.”
"Let me take care of him," Maria said, kissing the top of her son's head. "Now let's get going."
They had just reached the bottom of the stairs when the front door flew open and an enraged Nero walked through the door. “How dare you!” He snarled. “After everything I have done for you and the brat, you dare divorce me!”
Maria took a step in front of her son. “I owe you nothing Nero.” She said standing tall as she stared at the man. “You used me and our son to advance your career. I’m done. You can have the house and the money, but I am taking my son with me.”
“You whore!” He growled, reaching to grab her arm. “You were nothing when I found you were a 2 nd rate martial artist struggling to survive on tournament winnings. I gave you a place to live, and access to the best trainers in the world. I own you."
"No," Maria said, batting his hand away with ease. "I worked hard and won each of my tournaments and that was on top of giving birth to Neito and still being able to get back in shape to win my tournaments.” Maria jabbed a finger in his chest. “I could tolerate all your affairs with the sleazy women from your office, but I draw the line at leaving our son alone with the maids for hours while you're sleeping around."
“I told you to take him with you!” Nero screamed, waving his arms like a madman. “I am too busy to look after him!”
"Move," Maria said coldly. "After I get Neito and I settled, I'll send the papers and you can screw your secretaries until your dick falls off."
Neito held his stuffed lion close as he stood close to his mother. He didn’t like it when they screamed at each other.
Nero went to strike his wife with his fist, but she easily blocked it and punched Nero in the throat, sending him to the ground.
"Stay down Nero," Maria said, picking up her suitcase and her son's hand. "Good luck with your career."
Neito was gripping his mother's hand tightly as they moved past his father's crumpled form towards the front door.
Bam. Bam. Bam.
Neito felt his mother stop before collapsing to the ground. “Mommy?” He asked, turning his head in time to see her fall to the floor as blood pooled on the ground “Mommy!” Neito felt tears running down his face as he saw three holes in his mother's chest.
"Shit!" Nero swore, getting to his feet and pulling out his phone. "It's me! Fuck! I need help. Shit went sideways!" Nero walked out of the room in a panic.
Neito was at his mother's side. "Mommy!" He cried as she rolled over to her side. "You're hurt."
Maria coughed as she reached over and caressed her son's cheek. "Be strong cub." She said before she started coughing up blood. "Don't let hi-im destroy the kind heart of yours.” She felt tears running down her face. “I love you cub.”
"I-I love you too Mommy!" Neito cried as his mother's arm went slack and fell to the floor. Neito cried as he laid his head against his mother's shoulder. "Please wake up."
The rest of the memory became fuzzy as his father came back and a man placed his hand over his face before his world went dark.
Neito let out a scream of agony from his memories and soon it turned into a mighty roar. His eyes started to glow a goldish hue as the restraints were starting to creak and groan.
A few moments ago.
Dr. Giraki smiled as the blood matched the crystal perfectly. He turned to see the boy was almost catatonic and just shrugged his shoulders. "At least he is quiet." He mused while sending his report to All for One. Now the project was mere moments away from coming to fruition. He saw a portal open up as Scorpina and Kurogiri walked into his lab. "Perfect timing. The boy is a perfect match to the last crystal."
"Excellent," Kurogiri said with a nod of his head. “I shall tell Sensei at one.” He opened a portal and was gone.
Scorpina was grinning, after all these years, she finally found what she needed to get her plan underway. She had the board set and now it was time to start moving the pawns. "Excellent work Doctor." She said taking a step closer to the boy. "We need to get his training underway as soon as possible.”
"Of course." Dr. Giraki said, rubbing his hand together greedily. "I wa-.”
“RAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHH!”
Scorpina and Dr. Giraki turn to see the boy starting to overpower his restraints and giving off a gold and black aura.
"What in the world!" Dr. Giraki exclaimed as she reached for a prefilled syringe to sedate his new subject. He was about to jab the needle into the boy's shoulder when his left arm broke free and batted the doctor across the room.
Scorpina's eyes went wide at the sight of the ethereal form of a massive black and gold lion standing behind Neito. "Impossible." She mumbled before surging forward and pinned the boy back to the examination table. She had to work quickly before it was too late. She muttered a powerful spell to create a stronger collar to hold all this power in check. She could feel Neito getting stronger and rushed the last of the incantation before snapping the collar around Neito’s neck.
Neito's eyes went wide before he passed out and his body fell back to the table like a puppet after having its strings cut.
Scorpina breathed a sigh of relief to see her collar holding. “That was close.” She muttered looking at Neito with a look mixed with fear and awe. “Are you alive doctor?”
"Barely." Dr. Giraki groaned, getting back to his feet. "What is the blazes was that?”
"Something that shouldn't be possible," Scorpina replied, crossing her arms. "My collar will hold and keep him loyal to our cause." She narrowed her eyes on Neito. "Send him to the others. Give him food and rest. After that, I want him up and training ASAP.”
“I will see that it is done.” Dr. Giraki said dusting off his coat. “I am sure Astronema will be able to whip him into shape quick enough.” He let out a dark chuckle. “She has done wonders for the others.”
"Very true," Scorpina replied, looking at the clock on the wall. "I have places to be. I will send Astronema over immediately.” She vanished from the room with a snap of her fingers.
Scorpina arrived in her room to see that Tomura was still at his lesson with All for One. She walked over and tapped a secret panel on the wall and walked inside the hidden compartment. Scorpina walled down the stairs as the door closed behind her. She could have teleported down, but she was feeling a bit cooped up and wanted to stretch her legs. After almost 5 minutes of walking down the stairs, she reached a short hallway that led to a secret base she had built a very long time ago.
She smiled as she looked around to see that massive room filled with various machines, elixirs, and projects. The hidden base was the size of a small city which allowed her to have multiple projects to be worked on. Scorpina was making plans of moving the base to a new location when she made her move.
“Finster, how are your creations coming along?" Scorpina called out getting the man's attention as she reached his workstation.
"Hello, my Empress." Finster greeted before setting down his sculpting tools. "They are coming along as scheduled. I have enough Putties to last for a very long time and I have created all of my monsters and all I need is your command and I will bring them to life for you."
Finster was known in their old universe as the Demon Artist. The creature was short and wore a blue and white outfit that was covered with a leather work apron. His face was bird-like with a white beak and elf-like ears. A small pair of glasses rested on the tip of his beak.
"Perfect," Scorpina said with a smile. She had been fortunate to find a version of Finster from another universe before she was forced to flee from Drakkon. Since they had arrived here on Earth, Finster had been tinkering and improving his monsters. "I see the samples I have to give you are being put to good use."
“Or course my Empress.” The demonic sculpture said, pointing to his most recent batch of creations. “My sculptures have been augmenting with demons, cybernetics, and even magic.” He ran a loving finger over the closest sculpture. “I can’t wait to see what kind of chaos they will bring to these humans.”
Scorpina laughed. “I agree.” She said staring and the countless rows of monsters and putties. “These will do nicely.”
“I assume you are here to search for more items, my Empress?” Finster said taking a small rag and cleaning his glasses.
"Yes," Scorpina said, walking over to a special mirror that Finster had helped her create. It was a 10ft by 10ft square mirror. The frame was hand carved with various symbols and demonic creatures. It radiated with a malice aura that anyone that was near it could feel.
Scorpina revealed in the malice and let out a deep content sigh. It allowed her to watch the various universes and learn as much as possible about the various Power Ranger teams. She had not been idle after arriving on earth. She had several items that would be useful if Dark Spectre figured out her plan. She could zoom in on certain items for her to pluck from that universe.
“I need to ensure my survival in case this plan goes wrong.” She waved her hand over the mirror and it showed a raved planet. She waved her hand over the mirror several times before she spotted something she could use. “Perfect.” She channeled her magic into her armored hand and slowly reached into the mirror. she wrapped a hand around the object and pulled it back through the mirror. She opened her palm and smiled to see a dark purple crystal capped on each end with black metal. “This will be very useful.”
Scorpina let a malicious grin cross her face as she knew the perfect candidate for this gift and now she would have to wait for the perfect time to use it.
After several more searches through the mirror, she found several more items to add to her collection. One item, in particular, made her very happy. Scorpina held a gold Power Coin in her hand. "Just what I needed." Scorpina purred as she turned away from the mirror. Scorpina decided that it was time to check up on her pet. She needed to break him a bit more to bend him to her will. With the spell from the Sword of Darkness and the subtle spell she placed on the collar, they should be enough to twist his loyalty away from All for One. She vanished from her base to find her pet.
Scorpina arrived to find Tomura sleeping in his bed. She scowled at the lazy money and snapped her finger and smiled at Tomura's scream of pain as she watched him roll off the dog bed. "Who gave you permission to sleep?" She snapped at the writhing form on the floor. She snapped her fingers and the pain ceased from the collar. "Get up. You haven't earned your right to sleep yet."
Tomura struggled to his feet before taking a kneeling position. “What do you want of me Mistress?” He asked, trying to keep the anger out of his voice.
Scorpina scowled at the monkey and pointed to his sword. “Train.” She said, narrowing her eyes. “I have countless Cogs and Putties to help you improve your swordsmanship.” She towered over him. “Get moving.” Scorpina waited for him to stand up and dragged a fingernail across his cheek hard enough to draw blood.
Tomura hissed in pain as grabbed his sword and hurried out of the room. He was seething in anger at how he was being treated. For now, he needed to bide his time until Sensei could free him.
Scorpina stared at the blood on her finger and smiled. She moved to a piece of parchment and held her finger over the paper until the drop of blood fell on the parchment. "Now, let's see who you really are." She mused, holding her hand hovered over the paper and started chanting a spell she had been curious to try for a while. According to her mother's spell book, the spell could track someone's family tree up to two generations. She had been interested in finding out what made All for One spend so much time with Tomura. So far, Scorpina had been unimpressed with his progress and thought he was a waste of her time and effort.
As the blood soaked into the parchment, Names and lines started to appear in red letters.
Tomura Shigaraki – Tenko Shimura
Scorpina tilted her head to the side to think. It made sense that All for One would change his name. She ran a finger up the line to his parents.
Kotaro Shimura & Nao Shimura
The names meant nothing to her, but now she had something new to taunt her pet with to rile him up and press his buttons enough to throw him off balance. She continued to the next set of names.
Nana Shimura and Ichario Ukitama.
Scorpina saw Nana’s name and immediately went to the next row and started to smile.
Inko Midoriya was followed by at least a dozen names until she reached the end of the list.
Kinkoya of Triforia.
Scorpina started to cackle as she had found the perfect way to get back at the woman after all these years and it had fallen perfectly into her lap. Now she needed to make the most of this plan. Scorpina took a thinking pose and before long a feral smile crossed her face. "Crude, but it may be just enough to make both of them suffer.”
Tomura was cursing as another attack slipped past his guard and hit him in the face. He let out a furious growl before he landed two quick slashes to the putty sending it to the ground. He had been training since he had first received the sword. It had been a week since he had woken up and he was being put through the wringer.
His only saving grace was his lessons with Sensei that helped him keep from losing his mind. He had been feeling so conflicted since he first received the sword. It made him feel powerful for the first time since touching the blade. He found it hard to focus on his lessons of taking over the LOV when the time was right. He wanted to go after All Might and Izuku Midoriya. He wanted to kill them with the whole world watching and make everyone fear him.
Tomura had just fallen asleep when his…Mistress woke him for more training. He had been taking his frustration out on the putties, but he was still struggling to use the sword properly. He was getting better, but he was still far from being adept with it.
He had just finished an hour of training when he fell to his knees panting. He was not used to this much physical activity after a lifetime of being a gamer. He pushed himself back to his feet by using his sword as a cane.
He was about to start again when clapping filled the room. Tomura turned to see his Mistress standing behind him. “I can go again.” He told her between panting breaths. Tomura was not looking forward to another shock so soon.
"I'm sure," Scorpina said in a quiet voice. "You are overcompensating on your overhand swing." She summoned her sword and performed the proper swing as an example. "Like this."
Tomura performed the swing several times just like he had been shown. His Mistress adjusted his stance and had him repeat it again and again until he got it down. “Thank you, Mistress.” He said moving through the next move in the sequence.
"I need you to get stronger," Scorpina said, running a tender under Tomura’s chin. “I need someone to lead my team and I want it to be you." She smirked at the boy's stunned expression. "Don't look so surprised. I gave you the Sword of Darkness for a reason." She made a subtle move with her hand to cast another spell on Tomura.
Tomura couldn't take his eyes off his Mistress's face. He felt his hatred for her start to fade as his heart started to beat faster. He could smell her scent and it was starting to cloud his mind. "O-Of course Mistress." Tomura stuttered as he looked deeper into his Mistress's eyes.
Scorpina leaned closer until her lips were a hair's breath away from his ear. "Continue to improve and I may allow you to join me in bed for more, carnal activities." She placed a kiss on his neck before pulling back to wink at him. "Don't disappoint me my pet." Scorpina decided to go in for the killing blow and pressed a short kiss to his lips before leaving the room making sure to add the obvious sway of her hips. She glanced back to see him watching her every move. 'Now, he belongs to me.' Scorpina thought to herself.
Tomura was awestruck by his Mistress's beauty. He was no longer tired and decided to train even harder. He felt like a fire had been ignited in his heart. Tomura felt that his Mistress was the woman he would want to marry someday. He would train hard and prove to Scorpina of his love and devotion. Tomura turned back to face the putties with his sword in the ready position. “Come at me.” He ordered the putties. Tomura charged forward to fight with his burning desire for his Mistress as his driving force.
Scorpina made her way to the lab and let out a tired sigh. She turned to her viewing globe and let it scan the world for what she was looking for most of all, but it was still blocked from her sight. She let out a growl of frustration. She snapped her fingers and a few putties. "Find my minions and bring them to me immediately," Scorpina ordered in an irritated voice.
She watched her putties scurry away before moving to a medium size chest in the corner of her lab. She summoned the key and unlocked it before slowly opening it. Inside were various knickknacks including a pair of gold rings. One was a simple gold band and the other was a gold ring with a white polished stone. Beneath the rings was a neatly folded white and black baby blanket.
Scorpina ran her loving fingers over the blanket before moving the rings and picked up the blanket. She held it to her chest and closed her eyes as she remembered who was wrapped inside it.
Scorpina remembered the countless hours of labor that wracked her body. She had been in labor for hours and nothing seemed to take away her pain or sped her delivery. This child was a miracle in her opinion. She had dreamed of being a mother for ages. Now she was on the home stretch and she needed to push through it. After a final brutal hour of labor, Scorpina was exhausted as she held her child in her arms. "Hello, my son." Scorpina said tiredly. "I have waited a very long time for you."
Scorpina was broken out of her memory when she heard footsteps approaching and placed the blanket back inside the chest and locked it.
"It's about time you both arrived. "Scorpina snapped, turning around with a furious glare. "Have your assignments been completed?" She stared harder at the pair standing in front of her. “Toxica? Jindrax?”
“Of course, my Empress.” Toxica replied with a low bow. The Duke Org wore a dark blue dress that reached all the way down to her Black heeled boots. Her chest was covered in blue and silver colored chest armor, her head was covered in a blue helmet with a red horn sticking out of the top. Her nose to her chin was covered with a thin translucent black veil. Only a small amount of olive skin and brown eyes were visible. In her right hand was a black staff that opened like a Venus flytrap with a red orb in the center. “The evidence against your company has been destroyed as you requested.”
“Excellent Toxica," Scorpina said with a slight nod of her head. “Jindrax?”
“The whistleblowers have been silenced. My Empress.” Jindrax replied, crossing his arms. The Duke Org looked more monster-like than his companion. His face was white with a solid white brow ridge that went slightly past his head on both sides like a hat brim. He had a white horn protruding out the top of his head. He wore a harlequin-like outfit that had his right arm and left leg covered in white cloth, while his left arm and right leg were covered in purple. He wore chest armor that was purple on the right and white on the left. He had a short cape that hung from his shoulders down to his lower back.
Both Duke Orgs wore a golden collar around their necks marking them as Scorpina’s slaves.
"Perfect," Scorpina said, taking a step closer to the Duke Orgs. “See what happens when you just do what you are told.” She started to walk around them, studying them carefully. “Just tell me what his name is and I will release you both from the collars.”
“This again?” Jindrax scoffed with a shake of his head. "It's been over a decade and we still haven't told you. Why change that now?"Jindrax crossed his arms and started defiantly at Scorpina.
Scorpina grit her teeth as she moved to glare at Jindrax. “I want his name. I know he is at UA and I am trying to get more information on him from a reporter as we speak to confirm his identity." She watched both of the Orgs tense up. "That's right. You have been stonewalling me for so long and now I am getting close to getting him back."
“Leave him out of this.” Toxica snarled. “He is innocent in all of this and you’ll ruin his life by tracking him down!” She gripped her staff in anger despite knowing the price of her defiance.
Scorpina snapped her fingers and both of the powerful Duke Orgs dropped to the ground writhing in agony. “I WANT MY SON!” She screamed at them before snapping her fingers again to stop their pain. “Tell me and the pain stops. Don’t test my patience.”
Jindrax and Toxica refused to do anything more than scream out in pain.
After almost an hour of torture, Scorpina growled and snapped her fingers to end the pain. “All you are doing is delaying the inevitable.” She snapped at the Duke Orgs. “Once I get him back, I will destroy you both.” Scorpina stormed out of her lab not bothering to check on them before she left.
“That was pleasant.” Jindrax joked as she rolled onto his back. "How are you, my love?" He turned his head to look at his wife.
“I’m fine Jin,” Toxica replied, rolling to her side. "We have suffered worse at her hands over the years." She reached over to take her husband's hand. "We must hold out a bit longer."
“I know dear.” Jindrax agreed, forcing himself to sit up. “He has made us proud.”
Toxica smiled under her veil at her husband. "He has turned into a fine young man." She started to get to her feet using her staff as a crutch. "I am very proud of him."
“We just need to bide our time.” Jindrax told his wife slowly rising to his feet. "One day, he may be able to free us." He pulled his wife into an embrace.
“As much as I want that,” Toxica replied, laying her head on her husband's shoulder. "I want him as far away from Scorpina as possible."
Jindrax sighed and nodded his head. "I know." He said softly. "Let's go to our room. I want to rest with my wife before I'm sent out again."
Toxica just nodded her head and leaned against her husband's shoulder as they headed to their room. Her thought went out to the child she raised as her own. "Be safe my son." She whispered as a tear ran down her face.
Scorpina screamed out in anger as she destroyed a training room. The room was covered in scorch marks, destroyed equipment scattered across the room. She was shaking with rage when there was nothing left in the room for her to destroy.
Scorpina was resting when she heard someone calling her name and she groaned quietly as she looked to see Toxica crouched beside her. “What is it Toxica?” She asked quietly, not wanting to disturb her baby's sleep.
“Lord Drakkon has arrived and he has ordered the Ranger Slayer to kill you and take the child.” Toxica said urgently. “We are short on time.”
Scorpina was awake in an instant and she carefully wrapped the baby tighter in a nearby blanket and handed him to her friend. “Take him to the portal. I want you and Jindrax to go through it and keep my son safe until I can join you.”
“Of course.” Toxica replied with a nod of her head.
Scorpina watched the Duke Org leave her room and she moved to gather everything as quickly as possible. She knew time was against her. She spotted her son's baby blanket on the ground and picked it up and shoved it into her bag.
Scorpina slung her bag over her shoulder and made her way to her lab. She had made it just inside the room when a black arrow missed her shoulder by a hair's breath. "You!"
“Me.” Ranger Slayer replied with another arrow notched on her bow. “You dare flee from your Lord?”
Scorpina glanced over to see the portal was still set to the time she had preset weeks ago. "I will not die so easily by the woman that currently shares my husband's bed." Scorpina moved slowly to the portal. "Now, you don't have to hide it, Kimberly," Scorpina smirked as she watched the Ranger Slayer tense up at her name. "Watch you back. He will betray you one day as well."
Scorpina turned and ran to the portal. She ignored the arrows flying around her and kept her eyes on the portal. Just before she touched the portal, an arrow struck the machine and changed the time entirely. "NO!' Scorpina screamed as she landed in an open field in the middle of nowhere.
Scorpina let her arms fall to her side in exhaustion. She would not rest until she found her son and raised him to succeed and follow in her footsteps. Her son would be a prince and would rise to become a feared warrior. She would burn the world to ashes to make it possible. She had been waiting patiently for the reporter and now she wanted answers.
After arriving in her office and taking her human disguise Maiko, she made her way to her desk and pulled out her secret phone, and called Chitose.
“Hello, Maiko.”
"I am still waiting on that information you promised me," Maiko said, letting her annoyance be heard in her voice. "I am losing patience."
“Relax. I sent you everything I found first thing this morning. Check your email before you pop a blood vessel."
Maiko's eyes went wide and moved to her computer to log in and check her mail. She scanned the message in her inbox and found the email in question. "You are the best Chitose," Maiko said, reading the document and smiling. "I shall send a finders fee to your account."
“Pleasure is all mine. Reach out if you need anything else.”
Maiko hung up the phone and printed off the file. She read each page carefully and smiled when she reached the end of the file. "I found you, son," Maiko whispered as she ran a loving finger over the picture. "We will be together soon my son." Now it was time to start planning to retrieve her son and bring him back so that he could learn of his heritage.
Nothing would stop her from getting her son back.
Not All for One.
Not Dark Spectre.
Not even the Power Rangers would stop her from retrieving her son. She was prepared to destroy everyone and everything to get to him.
Scorpina returned to her room to find Tomura passed out on his small bed with the Sword of Darkness in his hand. Scorpina smirked as she went to lie down in her own bed knowing that before too long, she would have a new bedmate and that Tomura would be very useful in the future in striking out against her enemies. Scorpina was looking forward to hitting all of them where it hurt the most.
Izuku was sitting in Nezu's office looking over the report that was sent to UA shortly after the news broke about the attack on Nero Monoma and the abduction of his son Neito. The HPSC had swarmed the scene and Officer Monoma was listed in critical condition. There was no camera in that area and so far, no witnesses had come forward.
"Something is not right," Izuku said, setting the report down in front of him. Why would Nero pull off under an overpass with no camera?" Izuku pointed to the file. "What photos they provided do not make much sense either. Barely any sign of a struggle amongst all that damage to the car.”
"It is puzzling," Nezu said, nodding in agreement. "I have offered the Commission the help of SPD and the Rangers to help find young Monoma, but the President has politely declined our offer.” He made sure to add some sarcasm to the word politely. “All we can do now is keep our ears open and hope we can find a lead.”
"I know," Izuku said, rubbing his face with his hand. "I may not have liked Neito, but I don't wish this on anyone."
Nezu smiled proudly at his student. “You are a good man Izuku.” He said leaning back in his chair. “Never forget that.”
"I'll do my best sir," Izuku replied with a laugh. "It's almost time for our next meeting."
Nezu nodded his head and opened the door. “Please come in Principal Fukukado.” He called out to his guest. “Please have a seat so we can get started.”
"Please just call me Emi or Ms. Joke." She replied with a laugh. "I am still not used to being called Principal Fukukado quite yet.”
"Understandable," Nezu said with a smile. "Now, have you brought us what we requested?”
Emi nodded her head. “Yes,” She replied, reaching into her briefcase and pulling out a stack of files. “These are the top 5 candidates that DECA found matched with a Morpher.” Emi set the stack on the desk in front of her.
"Excellent," Nezu said, rubbing his paws together. He took the first file in the stack and started looking through the folder. “I like what I see.
"Well, the Team Leader and Assistant Team Leader are both 2nd years," Emi explained pointing to the file in Nezu's hand. "They both have a year of experience in the field and both work together quite often."
Izuku scanned the files and nodded his head. “Well, they are dating so that makes sense." He said off-handedly as she picked up the next file in the stack.
“How do you know that?’ Emi asked surprised by Izuku’s comment. “That wasn’t in their files.”
"Body language," Izuku replied with a shrug. "Several of the photos show them holding hands or showing affection.” Izuku cleared his throat. “Nezu had me start studying body language recently to help me read people better.”
Emi just blinked a few times and turned to look at Nezu. “Now I understand what Shouta means about you making Izuku scary.” She said with a shudder.
"Izuku is a remarkable student and Shouta may deny it but Izuku is his favorite student next to your son," Nezu said moving on to the next file.
"Oh, I know," Emi said with a laugh. “He hides his emotions well.”
Izuku looked at the last of the files and nodded his head. "I think these five will work well together. The last three work on the list already work together and after a bit of training, I think all five of them will make a fine team to add to the Power Ranger Roster.”
"I completely agree," Nezu said looking at Emi. "I will have Andros swing by on Monday to start their training and drop off their Morphers and run them through the basics.”
Emi was beaming with pride at her students being selected to join the Power Rangers. She glanced at the roster in front of her and made a mental note to have them in her office first thing Monday morning.
Yo Shindo- Team Leader
Tatami Nakagame- Assistant Team Leader
Saiko Intelli
Camie Utsushimi
Himiko Toga
"Oh, the girls are going to love this," Emi said looking over at Izuku. "Am I allowed to tell them before Monday?"
"That is up to you," Izuku replied with a shrug. "If you hold off, then it will be a bigger surprise for the entire team.”
Emi nodded her head. “I think that Monday will be a lot of fun.” She mused pointing at Izuku. “I like the way you think.” Emi knew it was going to be hard not to tell Himiko or Camie, but she was willing to do her best to keep it a secret until then.
"I shall have communicators and earpieces made up for your team as well," Nezu said, stroking his chin with his hand. "That way, we can keep in touch with them and we can send or they can request help easily."
"That will make me feel better to know that all 5 of them have the ability to teleport to safety if needed," Emi replied letting out a sigh of relief. "I don't want to see one of them be taken like Himiko was."
"On that, we both agree," Nezu said, crossing his arms.
“Yeah,” Izuku agreed, crossing his arms. “I am working on something for my daughters as a precaution as well.”
"Thank you both," Emi told them both as she bowed her head in respect. "I need to get back to my school soon." She let out a tired sigh looking at her watch. "Need to meet with the teachers this afternoon to go over the changes to the school."
"Let's get this finished up then," Izuku said, cracking his knuckles.
After the trio put the finishing touches on the new team roster and support staff that would be assigned to the school, Izuku looked at his watch and then up at Emi. "Want to help me pull a prank on Shouta?" He asked with an evil grin. "I need to pay him back for something that happened in the cafeteria a while back."
Emi returned the evil smirk and leaned a bit closer. “What do you have in mind?” She asked, rubbing her hands together.
“Well, we will need Hitoshi to help pull this off.” Izuku mused knowing this would be hilarious. “Think you can persuade him to help us out?”
"Oh easily," Emi said, pulling out her phone. "Tell me what you need him to do."
Nezu just cackled as he listened to Izuku plan for Shouta. “I have never been so proud.” He said to his student. “Allow me to help you step it up. I am sure Midnight would be willing to help out.”
Shouta rubbed his face as he headed off to Midnight's classroom. All he wanted to do was get some much-needed sleep. After the last 3 days of running with Zen-Aku and the Phantom Ranger had been both fruitful and a bust.
It had been fruitful since they had brought in a dozen villains that had been off the grid for several years and had a high bounty on them as well. Currently, the villains were heading to Tartarus. Several of these men would be tried for countless murders they had committed before disappearing and that made Shouta sleep a little easier at night.
It had also been a bust since they had not found any connections to the LOV in the last several raids in the Underground areas that Shouta normally patrolled. Shouta had reached out to a few acquaintances about searching their territories. Tonight was his night off and he was hoping to get some sleep and swing to Emi’s place to stay with her for the night.
Now, he was asked to stop by Midnight's classroom to answer a few questions about something. Shouta would have blown it off, if not for the fact that the request from Nezu. "Things I do to keep the boss happy." He grumbled to himself. "Quick stop and off to get some coffee."
"I'm here Midnight," Shouta said walking into her classroom. On the screen were six images of Underground Heroes. Shouta spotted himself along with a few others that were 'known' to the average person of Japan. He also spotted Emi up on the screen next to him and tried not to grimace. "What did you need?"
"Well, Izuku was explaining a few things about Underground Pros and Kirishima asked about how you designed your costume." Midnight explained with a smirk on her face. "I figured why not ask you to stop by and tell them yourself."
"Fine," Shouta said in a defeated tone. "Let's get this over with so I can go take a nap." He moved up to the front of the classroom to start telling his students about the process he went through to improve his suit when the door opened.
“Sorry to interrupt!” Ms. Joke said walking into the classroom. “I just need to drop off something to my son and I will be out of your hair!’ She looked around a moment before walking over to Hitoshi. “Here son, you forgot your lunch money.”
"Thanks, mom," Hitoshi replied with a smile and placed the money into his pocket. "Sorry about forgetting to grab that this morning."
“It’s fine sweetie.” Ms. Joke replied with a wave of her hand. “I had a meeting here with Nezu this morning anyway. “ She looked over and gave Shouta a beaming smile. “It’s a bonus for me to see my hubby as well. Hey babe.”
Few people in 1-A knew that Ms. Joke was his mother, but everyone was staring at Mr. Aizawa with a stunned expression on their faces. Mina and Toru were squealing excitedly.
"TEA PLEASE!" Mina and Toru begged Ms. Joke while ignoring the annoyed look of their teacher.
Izuku was doing his best to look innocent and was able to keep from laughing so far.
Hitoshi looked at his mother with a confused look. "I thought you told me that I was supposed to let anyone know he was my dad?" He glanced over in time to see Shouta's jaw drop in surprise. "Sorry, Dad."
Shoto looked between his teacher and his classmate before grabbing a notebook from his bag and starting to write something down. "I knew it." He mused as he wrote down his correct assumption about them.
Shouta was stunned at Hitoshi's words. He would be the first to admit that next to Izuku, He was very close to Hitoshi and was starting to see him like a son. Shouta was at a complete loss for words as Midnight and Izuku both burst into laughter. A moment later, Ms. Joke joined them with a deep belly laugh, as Hitoshi smirked and leaned back in his chair.
"Problem child," Shouta said, narrowing his eyes at Izuku.
Izuku controlled his laughter long enough to smile at his mentor. "Payback for the incident with Nejire." He said, wiping tears from his eyes. “I told you I would remember it.”
Shouta locked eyes with Izuku. “I hope you haven’t gotten rusty.” He said, rolling his shoulders. “I am going to be your sparring partner this afternoon.”
"Sounds like fun," Izuku replied, knowing that he would be sore, but it was worth it.
Shouta then turned to look at Hitoshi. "I think you should join us, Hitoshi," Shouta said, gesturing to his scarf around his neck. "I think you need more training with your capture scarf."
“Sure, thing Dad," Hitoshi replied, giving Izuku a thumbs up. "I think it would be some good father-son bonding."
This sent the room into more laughter as Shouta let out a long groan.
Katsuki just grunted in annoyance and just wanted the class to end. He had better things to do than listen to this dribble.
Ms. Joke hugged her son before walking over to kiss Shouta on the cheek. “Later Hubby.” She said with a mischievous wink before sauntering out the door.
“How about we finish up before lunch?” Midnight told the class after she was able to stop laughing.
Shouta glared at his friend before turning back to look at the class. "Fine." He grumbled crossing his arms. "Anyone who even thinks to ask something that is not related to this class will receive a detention."
Mina and Toru swallowed hard before lowering their arms back to their side.
Momo and Ochako sighed at them.
Kyoka tapped Izuku on his shoulder with one of her jacks and gave him a wink. “Such a bad boy.” She said leaning closer to him. “I like it.”
Izuku leaned closer and blew her a kiss. “Only for you my Rock Princess.” He said, giving her a bright grin.
"If you two are done flirting?" Shouta asked with a hint of a smirk on his face.
Izuku and Kyoka flushed a little as the class resumed.
After lunch was over, Izuku got a message to bring something to Mei for lunch. He ordered Mei’s favorite and headed off to the Support shop. When he entered the shop, Izuku spotted her working on something with Donatello. “Lunch delivery!’ He called out to the duo.
"Zuzu!" Mei exclaimed as she jumped up and rushed towards her boyfriend. "You are a lifesaver!" She wrapped him in a hug and kissed him on the lips. "I am starving."
"I figured," Izuku replied with a chuckle. "I got your favorite sandwich and drink to wash it down."
Mei snatched up the bag and went over to start eating. “Donnie and I have been so busy this week getting babies built for the Sports Festival.” She took a bite of her sandwich and let out a content sigh. “Perfect. I have been craving this all day.”
Donatello looked up from his workstation and waved at Izuku. "She had been a building machine." He said reaching over to grab a water bottle. "At this rate, we will have our new equipment built and ready for some testing by next week."
Izuku nodded his head. "That she is." He said beaming at Mei with pride. "She is a Queen of Machines."
"Zuzu!" Mei whined as her face turned a bright red. She polished off her sandwich and walked over to give Izuku a very deep kiss. "Thank you for lunch. I know you have better things to do than to bring me food."
Izuku rolled his eyes. “I like taking care of you and the other girls.” He said stealing a kiss from her. “I have to get to class. See you after school?”
"Of course," Mei replied instantly. "See you soon Zuzu."
Izuku waved as he headed off to his Heroic Class. Mei made sure to watch her boyfriend leave zooming in on her butt. “I am one lucky lady.” She murmured before shaking her head. “Alright, so far we got a few of the big projects done and after we finish up with them we can work on the smaller ones.”
"Sounds good to me," Donatello replied, cracking his knuckles. "Don't forget we need to spar for a bit too with your staff.”
"Yeah, yeah," Mei said, patting her friend on the shoulder. "I know I need help with fighting with the bo staff.” She heard her phone beep and smirked before opening the window to let a drone fly in and drop a small bag on her workbench. "Perfect timing," Mei said, opening the bag and pulling out a mini candy bar. "Perfect time for dessert."
Donatello gave his friend a strange look. "How can you still be hungry?" He asked setting up their next project on his workbench.
“Cuz I am," Mei replied with a shrug and polished off a mini chocolate bar before wiping her hands off with a rag. “Now back to some inventing.”
Donatello nodded his head and gestured to the jetpack on the workbench. "How about we get this thing finished up and move on to my Board?"
“What are we waiting for!’ Mei said excitedly.
Donatello laughed as he helped Mei with some of the wirings while she adjusted the flight system. "Never a dull moment with you Mei."
Izuku grunted as he hit the ground and rolled to land back on his feet. "Nice to see you haven't lost your touch old man," Izuku said, coming in low to attack Shouta’s legs.
"Problem child," Shouta replied, jumping over Izuku's leg sweep and flipping back to send his scarf at Izuku. “You are getting a bit full of yourself.” Shouta moved out of the way of Hitoshi’s drop kick and grabbed the purple-haired boy by his scarf and tossed him into Izuku. “Both of you are in need of a refresher course from me.
"What a drag," Hitoshi grunted, getting back to his feet and adjusting his scarf around his neck. “You know this is your fault, right?” He said shifting into a fighting stance.
"Yup," Izuku grunted as he rolled his shoulders. "But you agreed to the prank." He shifted from foot to foot. "Do you want to go high or low?"
"Ugh," Hitoshi said with a grunt. "I'll go low, only because it's close to the ground."
"Fair," Izuku replied, starting to bounce on his toes. "Here goes nothing."
Hitoshi watched his friend rush forward. “Yup. Nothing at all.” He said following right behind Izuku, aiming his scarf at Shouta’s legs.
Shouta hid a smirk behind his scarf as he fended off both of their attacks. He was happy to see how fast Hitoshi and Izuku were improving. He was thinking about offering them both an internship to help them master the scarf. After a week of brutal training then Shouta would have to be afraid of the two of them attacking him at the same time.
But for now, Shouta was about to teach both of them a lesson they will never forget for pulling that prank on him.
Shouta was able to bounce his scarf off the ground and wrap it around Izuku’s waist. “Nice try kid.” He said honestly before throwing him across the room. Shouta jumped just in time to avoid Hitoshi's attack and land a kick. "Better luck next time."
"Gotcha," Hitoshi said, wrapping his scarf around Shouta’s left ankle. “Got lazy there in the end.”
Shouta's eyes went wide with shock and before he could react, Izuku captured his right wrist. "Nice job boys." He said nodding his head in approval. "Not good enough though," Shouta smirked at their confusion and dropped to the ground pulling them both towards him at the same time. He was able to use their momentum to capture them both with his scarf. "I'm still better."
Izuku and Hitoshi were wrapped up back to back and laying on the ground.
"So close," Izuku grunted, letting his head drop.
Hitoshi just let out a tired sigh. “What a drag.” He grumbled.
"Time for round two," Shouta said with a feral smirk on his face.
Izuku groaned as he left the locker room. Shouta had put them both through the wringer and both were ready for the weekend. He had one more day before the weekend and then it was moving day for the dorms. He had one last meeting this week and that was with Cathy Bates. Izuku was interested in hearing Cathy’s request in person after he had looked over the file she had sent over with Nezu. They were both surprised at how transparent she was.
Izuku was brought out of his musing when a pair of hands covered his eyes.
“Guess who~.” A playful voice said behind him.
Izuku thought for a moment and hummed. “If I’m not mistaken, then it is my beautiful Alien Queen.” He said turning around to see Mina’s cheeks a light purple. “There she is.”
Mina grabbed Izuku by the shirt collar and pulled him into a passionate kiss. When she pulled back a string of saliva connected them. "You can be so smooth at times," Mina murmured looking deep into Izuku's eyes. "You make us all feel so special."
"I've had a bit of practice with you lovely ladies in my life." He replied, kissing Mina on the nose. "Everyone waiting for us?"
“Yeah, I came to get you handsome.” She said pulling him gently to their usual room. “Time for some quality time with your lovely ladies.”
Izuku smirked. “Right behind you Mina.”

Summary:
Agreements are made and Opinions are expressed.
Notes:
Hello Readers!!
I apologize for the long delay in my updates, but my life has been hectic since my last drop.
First I was transferred back to days and given a large project and very little time to do it. That consumed all of my extra time to write and then coming home to spend time with my family. While I was on nights, I would write while my family slept, but being back on days, that is not possible anymore.
I have been squeezing in all the writing I can possibly get to get this update complete.Another problem I had was after the last MHA watches chapter, I got several comments about the direction I took the story that it took all the joy I had for the story and gave me a severe case of writer's block. I even thought of removing the series twice but changed my mind each time.
I have to thank Thecurlyone4eva, Jlar, and DaddyDM92 for helping me through my block and getting me back in the game. I was able to help out other writers and allowed me to work through my depression.
I write these stories for fun and they make me happy. I know not everyone will like what I'm doing with them, but I do.
Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this update and while helping my friends with their story, I wrote a new one that is not connected to any of my current stories. I will be releasing that on November 24th. That is my birthday and I wanted a special gift to my readers.
So strap in and enjoy.

Chapter Text
Izuku was sitting with Pony as they waited in Nezu's office for Cathy to arrive for their meeting. He had spent some time with his girlfriends before coming to the office. Just before he headed off to class, Nezu had sent him a message saying that Cathy had requested Pony join them.
Pony played on her phone as Izuku and Nezu worked on a few files. “I wonder why Aunt Cathy wanted me here?” She asked looking between Izuku and Nezu.
Izuku shrugged his shoulders. “Not sure.” He replied looking over to Nezu. “Do you know why sir?”
"I have an idea, but I will wait for her to arrive before I say anything," Nezu explained to his students leaning back in his chair. "Are you ready to move into your dorm room?"
"Yeah," Izuku replied, setting a folder down on the desk. "The girls are excited about the new apartment." Eri and Raphtalia had been a bundle of energy since they found out their room was going to be bigger and still get to see Izuku and their Mother figures. "I think the others will be a bit jealous of my dorm room on the same floor as Mom's apartment."
"You are a father with two children," Nezu replied with a wave of his hand. "You need a larger room to accommodate them and your partners."
Pony giggled. “True.” She agreed with the Principal. “We will want our time with both you and our girls.” She leaned over to kiss Izuku on the cheek.
"Thank you for the sir," Izuku said looking at his mentor. "I owe you for a lot of things that you have done for me and my family."
Nezu gave Izuku a genuine smile. “You are an amazing student and I want you to succeed to help bring a new age of Heroes." He pointed at Izuku with his paw. "I look forward to seeing you all make the world a brighter place.”
Pony rested her head on Izuku's shoulder and took his hand into hers. "I look forward to that too Izuku." She said in a soft voice. "I can't wait to stand by your side every step of the way. All of us will."
Izuku smiled brightly at Pony and Nezu. “Thank you.” He said with a smile. “I hope I can make you all proud.”
"You are on your way to being an amazing Ranger Izuku." DECA chimed in with a cheery tone. "We will be by your side to help you. All you have to do is ask."
The mood in the room was cheery and light as someone knocked on Nezu's door.
"Ah, there is Miss Bates," Nezu said, clapping his paws together. "Let's get this meeting started." He tapped the button on his desk opening the door. "Welcome."
Cathy walked into the office in her civilian attire. "Thank you for meeting with me." She said waving at Izuku and Pony. "I figured walking in my Hero Persona would draw a bit of attention."
"Understandable," Nezu replied, gesturing for her to take a seat. “I assume you were wanting to keep this meeting discreet.”
"Yes." Cathy agreed nodding her head and took a seat across from Nezu. “I wanted Pony here so she knows what is going on.” She looked over at her goddaughter. “The reason I asked you to be here was because what we are going to talk about involves you somewhat.”
Me” Pony asked looking at Cathy with a confused look. “What’s going on Auntie?”
Cathy took a deep breath and blew it out slowly. “After the USJ, the US government wanted to find a way to get their greedy hands on a Morpher or any kind of Ranger tech in general. Several people in the government wanted to use Pony as a spy to steal any Ranger tech and bring it back to them to try and reverse engineer it.”
Pony gaped in surprise. “What!” She exclaimed in surprise.
“How dare they," Izuku said coldly, narrowing his eyes at Cathy and crossing his arms.
Cathy raised her hands in a calming manner. "I put a stop to that immediately and told them the consequences of using my goddaughter.” She told them quickly. "I came here to see if we could come to an arrangement that will keep the US happy and my goddaughter out of the line of fire."
“What did you have in mind?” Nezu asked studying Cathy very closely. He could tell she was being honest and sincere since the beginning of her story.
Cathy got comfortable in the chair and cleared her throat. “I know that there is no way that Izuku or SPD will be sharing their Ranger tech with the US government.” She waited to see Izuku and Nezu nod their heads. “Now, I propose that in the event of a natural disaster or an attack from Scorpina, that SPD and the Rangers would be willing to respond to the US and assist should the need arise.”
Izuku glanced over to Pony and kissed her temple. "What do you think?" He asked, wanting to know Pony's thoughts on this offer. "Would that be something you would support?"
Pony sat in silence for a moment before nodding her head. "I wouldn't have a problem helping out in those types of events. We are Heroes in Training and Power Rangers. We will help those in need." She looked over at her godmother. "I won't betray Izuku." Pony straightened her back to sit a bit taller. "Don't make me choose between Izuku and my country."
"I won't let that happen," Cathy said in a voice full of conviction. "The day they actually try to force you to be a spy, I will retire and leave the US." She moved to kneel in front of Pony. “You are my family. I won’t let anyone harm or use you or your Mom to get what they want.”
Pony lunged forward to wrap her Aunt in a tight hug. "Thank you, Aunt Cathy." She said softly.
"Anytime kiddo," Cathy replied, rubbing circles into her goddaughter's back. She would do everything in her power to protect Pony and Laura. ‘Even if it costs me my License and reputation.’ Cathy thought to herself.
Izuku smiled at the pair hugging and glanced over to Nezu. “I think we can agree on Cathy’s stipulations.” He said relaxing slightly. “What do you think sir?”
"That would be agreeable," Nezu said with a small smirk on his face. "I am sure that your bosses will be upset about not getting their hands on Ranger tech.” He knew from experience that humans rarely just gave up after being denied something could be used as a weapon.
"I'll cross that bridge when I have to," Cathy replied, releasing Pony from her hug and taking her seat again. "For now, this will make enough of them happy to keep the rest from doing something stupid.”
"We shall see," Nezu replied, closing his eyes with a sigh. "I hope I will not have to retaliate against them if they come after any of my students or my staff. I will not hold back.” Nezu let a wicked smile crossed his face.
Izuku, Pony, and Cathy all shivered at that smile. They all know that it would not be a pretty sight to have an angry Nezu coming after someone.
How about we work on the details so that Izuku and Pony can get back to class?” Nezu offered Cathy. “That way you can deliver the contract back to your friends back in the US.” He added a great deal of sarcasm to the words 'friends' to make his point.
Cathy laughed before nodding her head. "That will keep them happy for now." She rested her arm on the chair before resting her chin in her palm. "I'll keep an ear out if they decide to try something."
"That is very much appreciated," Nezu replied with a twinkle in his eyes. "While you are staying in Japan, You are more than welcome to visit UA as a guest lecturer."
Pony's eyes light up with excitement. "You can come and help out during our Heroics Class this afternoon.” She said excitedly. “We have been training for the Sports Festival and you can help out.”
“The #1 Heroine helping out during our training would be an amazing boost to our class’s morale.” Izuku said, beaming at Pony. “Everyone has been working so hard, that it would be amazing to get someone of Cathy’s caliber to attend and give them pointers.”
Nezu glanced over to the American heroine. "What do you say, Miss Bates?” He asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Count me in," Cathy replied with a smirk. "Maybe you can get All Might in there with me and we can make it really memorable for the students."
Nezu's smile grew wider. "I will take care of the arrangements." He said looking forward to the chaos that would take place later in the day. "Now, business before pleasure. I say we get this all taken care of.”
An hour later the contract was signed and Cathy waved at Izuku and Pony before heading back to the hotel to change into costume and promise to be back later for the afternoon Heroics class.
“Should we tell the others?” Izuku asked as he wrapped an arm around Pony’s waist.
Pony rested her head against his shoulder and giggled. “Where is the fun in that?” She said in English. “This will be so much fun.”
Izuku chuckled as they walked down the hall. “This will definitely be a day to remember.” He remarked, leading them down the hallway.
As they were about to make a turn towards their next class, Pony pulled Izuku into an empty classroom and pushed Izuku against a teacher’s desk.
“Pony?” Izuku asked just before she grabbed his face and smashed her lips against his.
Pony pulled back with a smirk on her face. "We have a bit before class." She purred, fumbling with Izuku's belt with one hand and reaching into her pocket to grab a condom with the other. "I want a quickie." She ripped open the wrapper with her teeth.
Izuku was about to protest, but the words died as Pony pulled down his boxers and slid the condom down his hardening length. “Just a quick one.” He replied leaning down and capturing her girlfriend’s lips. Izuku lifted her by her hips and placed her on the desk. “Try to be quiet.”
Pony lets out a moan as she feels Izuku slide inside her. “No promises Daddy.” She replied before biting her lip.
When they finally rejoined their class, Setsuna gave them a knowing smile but didn't say anything until class was over.
“I am both jealous and proud of you Pony.” Setsuna teased quietly. “That is a nice hickey on your neck.”
Pony and Izuku both went a bit red in the face for being caught.
"I can explain later." Pony replied quickly.
Setsuna pulled Izuku into a quick kiss. “I plan on getting my turn at some point stud.”
Izuku thought a moment before leaning a bit closer to Setsuna. “You were watching weren’t you?” Izuku asked in a low voice and had to suppress a smile as the greenette shivered. “Did you like the show?”
Setsuna swallowed hard. “Yes.” She replied quietly. “I-I saw you guys sneak off and watched the whole thing.”
Izuku kissed her cheek. “I’ll make sure that you get treated like the queen you are when it’s your turn my Dinosaur Queen.”He chuckled and feeling brave he nipped at her earlobe and whispered again. "Well then when it is your turn I'll make sure you can’t walk straight for 3 days"
Setsuna pulled Izuku into a rough passionate kiss. "I'll hold you to it." She breathed making a mental note to stop by the bathroom to change her panties.
Pony just smirked knowing that Setsuna was in for a wild ride and that afterward maybe could convince Setsuna to join her in something special planned for Izuku. But there was time for that later. “We need to get to class. We can get Setsuna flustered later.”
Setsuna did the mature thing and stuck her tongue out at Pony. "I'll remember this." She said detaching her hand and slapping Pony's ass.
Pony eeped and shot Setsuna a warning glare.
"Now, girls," Izuku said, wrapping an arm around each girl's waist and pulling them close to him. "We need to get going or we will be late for class."
Pony and Setsuna nodded their heads before laying them on Izuku's shoulders.
The rest of the day went by and Izuku met up with everyone for lunch. Mina and Ochako made a beeline next to Izuku during lunch.
“How was your meeting this morning?” Ochako asked taking a bite of her lunch. “Did anything interesting happen?”
Izuku shrugged. "It went really well." He replied, taking a sip from his cup. "Cathy's proposal was fair and we signed off on it." He took a bit of his sandwich before wiping his mouth with a napkin. "I'll tell you, girls, all about it when it is made official.”
“That makes sense," Leonardo said, nodding his head in approval. "How long until that happens?”
Izuku shrugged his shoulders again. “I would guess at least a week. Maybe two depending on how their lawyers want to look over the contract.
“That is the US government for you," Melissa said with a sigh. "They are lawyer happy and that is when they are in a good mood, to begin with. When they want more, it takes forever.”
“Amen.” Pony agreed with a nod of her head. “I don’t like politics.”
“Preach it sistah," Raphael said, giving Pony and Melissa a thumbs up. "Politics make everything worse."
"Are you sure there isn't a way I can convince you to tell me?" Mina purred into Izuku's ear before nipping it with her teeth. "I am sure I can be convincing." She ran her hand halfway up his thigh.
Izuku smiled at Mina before whispering back. “Careful you don’t start something you can't finish my Acid Queen.” He kissed her cheek before going back to his lunch.
Mina's cheeks turned lilac before resting her chin on his shoulder. "Well played for now Izu." She said with a smirk on her face. "We'll have to play some more later."
Ochako snorted. "Quit while you are ahead Mina," Ochako said with a smirk.
Mina blew a raspberry at Ochako before going back to her lunch.
Izuku smiled as he looked around that table as various conversations were going on and despite all the chaos around him, he was glad not to be alone anymore. He had girlfriends that loved him. Friends that had his back. He went back to his lunch enjoying all the noise and chaos.
He was no longer alone and Izuku was looking forward to the future.
Izuku changed into his costume and headed off to the Training Ground. He spotted Mt. Lady leaning up against the wall and he waved. "Hey, Sis." He said moving to hug her. "How are you doing?"
Mt. Lady accepted the hug before letting out a sigh. “I’m hanging in there.” She said moving back to lean against the wall again and crossing her arms. "My agent thought it would be a good idea to keep a low profile at UA until the media dies down a bit."
Izuku nodded his head giving his sister a supportive smile.
ChitoseKizuki had released an article the day before that revealed that Mt. Lady had participated in a raid that resulted in her birth mother Yuka Takeyama being arrested on several criminal charges. Shortly after the story was released, the Commission informed Mt Lady that she was being investigated by Internal Affairs for any impropriety. Her license had not been suspended, but she was being watched very closely.
"I'm sure it will get buried in the next news cycle or two," Izuku told his sister while giving her arm a supportive squeeze. “Are you safe in your apartment?”
Mt. Lady smirked at her brother before a hint of pink dusted her cheeks. “I am staying at Kugo place.” She said watching her brother start smirking. “He asked me to move in and I have been slowly moving out of my apartment.”
"As long as he makes you happy and keeps you safe, then I am happy for you Sis," Izuku told his sister in a serious tone before giving her a wink. "I will keep it between us for now, but you better tell mom before she finds out."
Mt. Lady quickly nodded her head in agreement. “I’ll tell her before I head home for the night.” She started hearing a group of students getting closer. “Talk to you later little brother.” Mt. Lady walked over to stand in front of the approaching group.
Izuku took the opportunity to go stand with his friends and girlfriends.
“How is she doing?” Melissa whispered.
Izuku shrugged. “She said she is doing ok.” He replied with a worried look on his face. “Yu is getting a raw deal.”
Kyoka nodded her head and started to twirl one of her jacks. “Reporters.” She scoffed. “A bunch of vultures out to make a quick buck.”
Several people agreed with that statement.
"We got her back here," Hitoshi said, adjusting the scarf on his shoulders. "I'm sure if they try to get her removed from UA, Nezu will make them beg for mercy.”
Raphael chuckled. “More I hear about the Principal, the more I respect the man.” He said, cracking his knuckles. “I got the teaches back.”
“Do I need to reach out to my Mother?” Momo asked moving behind Izuku to wrap her arms around his chest. “I am sure the firm would be glad to deal with the media for Mt. Lady.”
Izuku shook his head. “No, I heard from Mom that Mona is already has a group working on it.” He leaned back enough to kiss Momo’s cheek. “Thank you though.”
"My pleasure darling," Momo replied before kissing the back of Izuku's neck.
A loud cough got everyone’s attention. “If you lot are done talking and being sickly sweet,” Mt. Lady called out with a smirk on her face. “Then we can get on with our afternoon.” She suppressed a chuckle as Izuku tried to move away, but Momo held him tightly to her chest and rested her chin atop his head. “Now, I know you all have been working hard in preparation for the Sports Festival, The Principal was able to arrange a special afternoon for all of the Heroics students.”
“Are we going to get to actually fight for a change?” Katsuki asked, hoping for a chance to show the new skills that he had learned from his Master. “These extras need to know who’s the best.”
“Say the guy that got his ass kicked by both Izuku and Pony," Setsuna said with a toothy grin. “So, we already know who’s the best against you blasty.”
Katsuki snarled as she turned to glare at Setsuna. “What was that?” He said through clenched teeth. “Wanna say that to my face?” He let out several small explosive pops from his hands. “Big talk coming from an extra like you. You’re nothing but Deku's oversized pet lizard."
Izuku tensed up and felt Momo do the same. He glanced around to see his other girlfriends and friends in general starting to move to stand behind Setsuna.
Setsuna took a step closer. “Gladly.” She shot back defiantly. “Someone needs to curb your ego, Dick.”
“ENOUGH!” Mt. Lady called out moving to step in between Setsuna and Katsuki. “You both will knock it off or I will give you both a detention.” She watched the two stare each other down. “What is it going to be?”
Katsuki scoffed and stormed off to lean against a wall still glaring at Setsuna.
Setsuna spat on the ground before walking over to rest her head against Izuku's shoulder. Izuku pulled her close and kissed her cheek.
Sero and a few of the single guys from 1-B started to get jealous of Izuku who was sandwiched between Momo and Setsuna. They grumbled "lucky bastard." Before looking at Mt. Lady.
“Now,” Mt. Lady said keeping an eye on Bakugo before for a moment before returning her attention to the rest of the class. “We will still be training for the Sports Festival, but we have two very special guests that will be joining us to help give tips to all of you."
“Who is it?” Kirishima asked excitedly.
Melissa giggled at her boyfriend's excitement. "I am sure that she is about to tell us." She teased.
“You two can come in now!” Mt. Lady called out to the waiting guests.
A moment later two blonde blurs arrived and stood tall.
“I AM HERE!” All Might called out with his trademark smile.
Star and Stripe crossed her powerful arms and smiled at the students gaping at her. “I am here as well.” She said in perfect Japanese with a wink. “I look forward to helping you all train today.”
“No way!”
Both #1 Heroes from Japan and the US!”
Izuku and Pony shared a smile as the class moved to surround the two Pros.
“That is right my students!” All Might said with a chuckle. “You all have been working so hard and we decided to help the future generation of Heroes and Heroines train to make their debut to the world at the Sports Festival.” He suppressed a laugh as his students were hanging onto every word.
Star and Stripe looked around the various students with a smile. “I will be in Japan until after the Festival and who knows, if you impress me enough, I may offer one of you an internship.” She could see the looks of surprise on their faces and then placed her fists on her hips. “So, show me what you got.”
“Well look no further!” Katsuki shouted out as he walked towards All Might and Star and Stripe. “I will be the next #1 Hero in Japan!” He jabbed a thumb into his chest. “I’ll be taking that intern spot from these pathetic extras.”
All Might suppressed a groan at Katsuki boasting. ‘I really need to sit down with him and get that ego in check.’ He thought to himself. ‘I just hope he listens to me
“You'll need more than words to prove that to me kid." Star and Stripe replied with an unimpressed expression on her face. “I’ve seen a lot of people make that claim over the last few decades and so far, All Might is still #1.”
Katsuki grit his teeth as he heard snickering. “I will be #1.” He said defiantly.
Star and Stripe stared at him before shrugging her shoulders. “We’ll see.” She said with a dismissive wave of her hand. “Now, less talking and more training.” Star and Stripe clapped her hands together and then made a shooing motion. “Go on start showing what you all can do.”
As the students started to disperse, Star and Stripe kept an eye on Katsuki moving off to a nearby area a moment before a series of explosions started going off. “That kid is in for a very rude awakening.” She said looking over at All Might. “You may have the next Endeavor on your hands if you are not careful.”
“I know.” All Might replied with a sigh. “Hopefully I can get through to him.” He rubbed his face with his hands. “I promised Mitsuki that I would try to talk some sense into him, but he is not listening to anyone right now.”
“Oh?” Star and Stripe asked with a smirk. “Did you finally decide to give dating a try?” She glanced over at Katsuki before looking back at All Might. “I’m guessing that you are dating the firecrackers mom. I knew you had a thing for MILF’s.”
“Please stop.” All Might groaned looking around. “It’s a recent change and Katsuki doesn’t know we are dating yet.”
Star and Stripe blinked a few times before taking a step closer. “You’re joking right?” She asked, watching All Might shake his head. “How does he not know?”
"Mitsuki tried to tell him, but he reacted badly to her dating someone and refuses to talk about it." All Might explained watching Katsuki launch himself around with his explosions. “I’m hoping I can find a way to talk to him about it.”
“Good luck with that.” Star and Stripe replied, patting the older hero on the shoulder. “Let’s start making the rounds before the kids start getting restless.”
“Right.” All Might said, taking one last look at Katsuki before heading off to make the rounds.
Izuku rolled to the side as a fist slammed into the ground a moment later. "Almost had me there." He said sending his scarf at his attacker's ankle. "Gotcha!" Izuku watched as the scarf wrapped the ankle and tugged at it.
"Ugh," Melissa called out after falling to the ground. "Almost had you Izuku.” She grabbed the scarf and channeled a small percent of OFA and gave it a yank. “Try and escape this!”
Izuku slipped the scarf off his shoulder a moment before it was pulled towards Melissa. "That was close." He muttered moving in close to limit her movements. He aimed for her feet with a sweeping kick. "Need to keep on your toes, Melissa!"
Melissa flipped back to avoid his sweeping kick before she dropped into a boxing stance. “That was good Izuku, but I trained with Gran Torino and he is much faster than you are!” Melissa opened with a series of jabs and faints.
Izuku and Melissa had been pushing each other trying to land a blow on one another. Izuku had managed to land a kick to her side before being put on the defensive. Melissa was able to land a blow on Izuku’s shoulder, sending him off balance.
Melissa had been wearing a temporary set of her armor as Mei was adding the finishing touches to her replacement suit. The gauntlets were still in development, but she was planning to find a day to work with Mei on getting them done before the Sports Festival.
Izuku was able to make Melissa over-extend herself and allowed him to flip her over his shoulder. He took the opportunity to retrieve his scarf and spun around to find Melissa already on the attack.
They were taking turns going on the offensive.
Izuku was using his natural talent to spar with Melissa to prepare him for the Sports Festival. Izuku wanted to make sure that he wasn't growing too dependent on his abilities with the Master Morpher. He had been moving between his classmates, friends, and girlfriends making sure that everyone was improving. Bakugo was still refusing his help and still preferred to train alone.
"She is good." Star and Stripe said smirking as Melissa had Izuku on the defensive. "I will have to make some time soon to give her a few lessons." She watched as Izuku retaliated with a spin kick to Melissa's ribs. "I can see he is quite skilled as well." After meeting Melissa at Pony’s birthday party, she claimed the girl as a sibling.
“Yes, they are.” All Might replied with a proud smirk on his face. “Melissa and Izuku have worked very hard to get this far in their training. I look forward to seeing them graduate and eventually take my place.” After watching them hold their own at the USJ and continue to grow in skill in front of him, All Might was starting to think more of retirement. Three Decades was long enough as a Pro and he wanted to spend more time with Mitsuki and maybe stay at UA as a teacher until he was forced to retire.
“I see you have retirement on the mind old man.” Star and Stripe teased her idol. “You earned a bit of peace and quiet.” She glanced over with a wicked grin. “This must be one hell of a woman.”
“That she is.” All Might replied with a sincere smile. “She has been on my mind frequently and all I want to do is to spend more time with her.” He had seen her the night before to have dinner and a movie at his apartment. It made that large apartment feel more like a home. “How about you? Anyone special catch your eye?”
Star and Stripe smiled before returning her attention to Melissa and Izuku. “One caught my eye, but I am letting things run at a slow pace.” She replied thinking back to her outing with a certain rabbit. “I’m waiting to see what happens.”
“I wish you the best of luck with your endeavors.” All Might said, gesturing to Izuku and Melissa. “A few more minutes and we'll break them up.”
“Sounds good to me." Star and Stripe replied watching as Melissa managed to land a spartan kick on Izuku's chest. "That looked painful."
Izuku rolled from being kicked in the chest by Melissa and was able to use his own momentum to get back to his feet. He rubbed his chest and knew there was going to be a bruise there later. "Nice kick." He complimented Melissa before ducking under her next kick and sweeping her leg.
“Gah!” Melissa cried out as she fell backward and landed on her back. She rolled over and got back to her feet to block both of Izuku’s punches. “Gotta be quicker than that.” Melissa increased her output by 1% and went on the offensive.
Izuku either blocked or redirected the attacks and tried to look for an opening. He knew that he couldn't beat her in a contest of strength or speed. Izuku was patiently waiting for an opening.
“That is very impressive you two.” All Might called out clapping his hands. “You both are doing an amazing job. Keep it up and the sky's the limit for your futures as Pros.” He beamed at both of his students.
“I agree.” Star and Stripe replied with a smile on her face. “You two were doing really well. I wouldn’t be surprised that after the SF, you will get a lot of offers from Pros.”
"We'll see," Izuku said with a sad smile on his face. "I am sure that many know by now of my Quirkless status. They will look for someone like Bakugo over me."
“Then they are not worth your time," Melissa said, patting Izuku on the back. “I’m sure you will have a bunch of people wanting to mentor the leader of the Power Rangers.”
“If not.” All Might said, crossing his arms across his chest. "Then I will offer you one personally."
"Or me kid." Star and Stripe added with a wink. "I feel like your sisters will offer you one as well." She tapped her chin with a finger in a thinking manner. “Maybe they already put one in for you.”
Izuku chuckled. "Possible." He agreed, rubbing the back of his neck. "I just want to make sure everyone does their best at the festival." He looked around to see his classmates working hard and pushing themselves to their limits. "I want to show the world what we can do. Whether we have Morphers or not.” Izuku glanced over to see Leonardo and Raphael sparring against one another as Jennika was mopping the floor with Michelangelo.
“I’m sure it will be the Sports Festival to remember.” Melissa beamed before smirking at Izuku. “I think that gold medal will look good around my neck.”
Izuku raised an eyebrow. "I think you mean my gold medal." He teased back before playfully elbowing Melissa's arm.
All Might and Star and Strip started laughing at the two of them. Both of them were looking forward to seeing if these two would face off during the festival.
“I fail to see what is so funny. They should be training, not playing." A voice called out from behind the two #1 Pro heroes. The group turned to see Nighteye standing behind them with a disapproving look on his face. "All Might." He said coldly.
“Nighteye.” All Might replied calmly. “What brought you here to UA?” He studied his old sidekick carefully and noted that Nighteye was glaring at Izuku and Melissa.
"If you would have answered my calls then, you would have known I wanted to talk with you," Nighteye replied, pushing his glasses up with his pointer finger. "This is getting out of hand. Why won't you listen to me?"
“I have said my piece on the matter .” All Might said spotting a familiar face looking uncomfortable behind Nighteye. “Young Mirio, what are you doing here?”
"Sir wanted me to escort him here," Mirio replied with a shrug of his shoulders. “He didn’t tell me why.”
All Might narrowed his eyes at his old sidekick and started shaking his head. "I see you are still relying too much on your quirk to make your decisions.” He scoffed before shaking his head in disappointment. “I have found my successor. You need to leave before you cross the line.”
Izuku and Melissa gave each other a curious look before focusing on the tension building between All Might and Nighteye.
Star and Stripe moved to step in front of both students as a precaution.
"I can't believe you chose her over Mirio." Nighteye snapped at his former mentor. "I have been training Mirio since day one to succeed you as the next Hero Japan needs." He gestured to a shocked Mirio with an open hand. "He is strong, personable and his Quirk is powerful." Nighteye gestured back to All Might. “He even looks like you. I have seen it. Mirio will make the billboard during his rookie year and eventually be the #1 Pro in all of Japan.”
“Wait what?” Mirio asked, confused as to what his mentor was talking about. “What do you mean replace All Might?”
“Later Mirio.” Nighteye said quickly. “Just name Mirio as your successor and join me tomorrow along with Endeavor to denounce the SPD.” A sneer crossed Nighteye’s face when glared at Izuku. “That boy will bring about the end of the Hero system as we know it.”
“Leave.” All Might said angrily. “Consider this our final conversation.” He took a step forward and towered over Nighteye . “I told you when you first approached me about Mirio, that the boy had promise and he is on his way to being a fine hero in his own right.” He jabbed an angry finger into Nighteye’s chest. “Melissa has risen to the occasion as my successor and I could not be prouder of her hard work and dedication. I think that SPD is just what Japan needs to help bring Japan into a new Era after I retire.” All Might glared intently at Nighteye one last time before turning away to stand next to Star and Stripe.
Nighteye looked like he had been struck by All Might. “You can’t be serious.” He said in stunned surprise. “You are going to turn your back on everything you build in favor of a Quirkless boy and the daughter of David Shield?” He took a step closer gesturing to both Melissa and Izuku. “Just Listen to me! I have seen the future and I know I am right.”
All Might just glared at Nighteye.
“I think it would be best if you leave now.” Star and Stripe suggested pointing in the direction of the door. “Before you are removed from here by force.”
“This doesn’t concern you, Star and Stripe.” Nighteye shot back before focusing his attention on Izuku. “They will never truly accept you.” He looked Izuku up and down. “You are Quirkless. You are nothing. A nobody.” Nighteye shoved his hands into his pocket. “Here's the truth of the world. There are millions of people living in Japan. And those teeming masses exist for the sole purpose of lifting the few exceptional people onto their shoulders. Heroes. They are here to lift up Heroes and the Quirkless, they are destined to lift us up. Nothing more, nothing less.”
"What did you just say?" A furious Ochako asked, arriving at Izuku's side and gritting her teeth. "Izuku is a Hero. He has shown that time and again."
"What she said," Toru growled, appearing at Izuku's side as her skin was shifting to a dark red. "Izuku is ten times the hero you will ever be."
Nighteye merely shrugged his shoulders. “Ten times zero is still zero.” He replied calmly. “I would be careful getting too close to him or anyone in SPD. I would hate for you to be tainted by association. You both have wonderful Quirks."
“After all, we have been through Nighteye.” All Might snarled out almost drawing blood from clenching his fists together so tightly. “I never saw you as a Quirkist.”
"I am being realistic," Nighteye replied with another shrug of his shoulders. "Without the Morpher, he is nothing. Quirkless can't be heroes. That is a proven fact."
Izuku shook his head. "Your logic is flawed," Izuku said, standing tall and returning the stare. "A quirk is just a tool. Some may be more powerful than others, but that does not make anyone invincible." He pointed at Nighteye. "I have studied your stats over the years. You only take cases that give you the answers with your Quirk. I know it is classified, but I would hazard a guess of some kind of foresight." He started grinning at the stunned look on Nighteye’s face. “How many cases did you pass off to your sidekicks to investigate because you could not see a culprit or an outcome for a case?" Izuku took a step closer to Nighteye, still on a roll. "Bubble Girl had a record that nearly matched you and she has only been a Pro for a few years. She investigates and digs into her cases and catches the culprits without seeing the future. That right there proves that quirks are not all-powerful."
Nighteye was at a loss for words at Izuku's rant. He cleared his throat to retort, but Izuku held up a hand.
"Not done," Izuku said in a commanding tone. "Now that Bubble Girl is a Member of SPD, your stats are starting to drop from your agency. She was your best investigator and now, she is ours." Izuku crossed his arms. "I don't care that no one will accept me as a hero. I will still save as many people as I can as a Power Ranger."
Ochako smirked and stepped up beside Izuku. “I’ll stand by his side as a Heroine and a Ranger.”
“Same here.” Toru said, holding Izuku’s hand. “We will stand by Izuku and help make the world a better place.”
"Fools," Nighteye said, shaking his head. "Come along Mirio." He turned and started heading for the door. Nighteye noticed that Mirio was not following him and stopped to look at his sidekick. “Mirio?”
“Is that why Bubble Girl left the agency?” Mirio asked with tears running down his face. “You have been avoiding that question for the past week. Did you fire her because her mother was Quirkless?"
"No," Nighteye replied angrily. "She left after I told her the same thing I just told Izuku." He extended his hand. "Come with me, Mirio. I can make you the greatest hero of all time. We are going to the Commission and you can hand your Morpher over to them."
"I-I trusted you," Mirio said, taking a step back from his mentor. "I looked up to you and All Might, but I want to be my own hero.” He wiped the tears from his face. "I thought you picked me because you supported my dream, but you are not the man I thought you were.” Mirio shook his head and walked past Nighteye. “I quit.”
Nighteye was about to grab Mirio's shoulder but stopped when two robotic figures stepped in front of him.
“Sir,” Robo Knight said in a commanding tone. "Principal Nezu has requested that you be escorted off the school grounds."
“Please come quietly.” Blue Senturion said, moving to stand beside his robotic companion. “We have been authorized to remove you by force if necessary.”
Nighteye scoffed but nodded his head. “I’ll leave.” He replied, adjusting his glasses. “I hope it was worth it All Might.” He looked back one last time at All Might. “The Commission will win out against SPD. It is only a matter of time.”
“Now sir.” Blue Senturion daid in a firm tone.
Nighteye was escorted out by the Robotic pair without any further incident.
"Izuku, are you ok?" Ochako asked, slipping her arms around his waist.
Izuku nodded his head. "I'm fine." He said letting out a tired sigh. "Hound Dogs sessions are helping and I have you two beside me." He presses a kiss on Toru and Ochako's cheeks. "Thank you, girls."
Toru sink shifted slightly pink before returning to normal. "Anytime Izuku.” She returned the favor by stealing a kiss.
Ochako, not to be outdone. Stole a kiss as well. "We got your back Izuku." She said leaning up against him.
"Forget him Izuku," Melissa said, crossing her arms. "Let's get back to training." She smirked at Izuku before cracking her knuckles. "I want to finish the fight."
“No, I think we're just getting started," Izuku replied before moving back to their sparing area. “I need to get some more practice before I take 1st place at the festival.”
"Don't count me out just yet," Ochako said, smirking. "I won't make it easy for either of you." Her eyes were shining brightly and gave them both a competitive smile. "I'm aiming for the top as well."
“Then you better get back to work.” All Might said loud enough to get his student's attention. “Hurry up. I need to keep moving around the other students.”
“Same here.” Star and Stripe said, patting Melissa on the head. “Later kiddo.”
Ochako and Toru got another kiss from Izuku before heading back to their training area.
While Izuku and Melissa went back to sparring, Shoto had stopped to write down something in his pocket notebook.
Melissa Shield is All Might Secret Love child?
All Might= Father
Star and Stripe= Mother?
He put the notebook away and planned on digging deeper to find the truth.
"Are you ready to get back to training Shoto?" Reiko asked, lifting several rocks and taking a ready stance.
Shoto nodded his head and flames and ice radiated off his sides. “Yes.” He replied tracking the flying debris as it floated around. “Let’s continue.” He sent off a wave of ice before having to send a blast of fire at a piece of debris.
Katsuki wiped the sweat from his face and grinned as he spotted All Might and Star and Stripe walking over to watch him train. He knew that this was his chance to prove that he was better than all of the extras in the class. Especially that bastard Deku. He started with a few smaller explosions to get him airborne and then he started firing them off faster and faster. Katsuki was moving through the air like a blonde missile. Katsuki flipped and aimed at a large structure of rocks and waited for the last possible moment to create an explosion against the rocks. The explosion was massive and they spewed dust everywhere.
He let the dust settle before crossing his arm with a cocky smirk. “This should be proof that I am better than the rest of the wannabes.”
Star and Stripe just stared at the boy with a bored expression on her face. "It was a powerful attack kid." She said watching Katsuki's smirk grows wider. "But there is more to being a hero than a powerful quirk.”
Katsuki gaped at the Pro Heroine for a moment. “What the Fuck are you talking about?” He growled out. “You are the #1 Heroine in the US! You are the strongest just like All Might! Powerful people become #1!”
“While my quirk is powerful,” Star and Stripe replied with a shrug. “That much power is good for a fight, but it causes too much collateral damage and puts civilians at risk.” She gestured to All Might. “There are times we have to hold back to prevent civilians from getting injured.”
“She is right.” All Might said, nodding his head sagely. “I have to hold back in many of my fights or people in nearby structures could be put in danger.” He rested his fist on his hips and studied Katsuki closely. “How will you save people if your attacks put civilians at risk?”
"They should just stay out of my way." Katsuki snapped out before crossing his arms. “Heroes beat the bad guys and save the day. Nothing else matters.” He had been watching heroes all his life fight the bad guys and win. Winning was all that mattered!"
"You have a long way to go kid." Star and Stripe said in a disappointed tone. "There is more to being a hero than battling villains." She had watched countless heroes like Bakugo and they never lasted long.
Katsuki grit his teeth before turning away to go back to training. "I'll show you." He growled out as he stomped away. "I'll show all of you just how great I am." He felt his Master's presence in his mind and smiled at what they had planned for the Sports Festival. "Everyone will respect me when I show them what I can really do." His eyes shifted to an ethereal purple for just a moment before returning to their normal red.
The rest of the class went off without any further interruptions or issues. The students were talking excitedly about getting pointers from two legends.
All Might headed off to have a conversation with Nezu about what happened with Nighteye. He was sure that Nezu had watched the entire thing go down.
Star and Stripe signed a few autographs before heading off to meet with her US contacts.
After everyone got showered and changed out of their costumes, they started breaking off into various groups.
Izuku and his girlfriends headed off to their usual spot to cuddle. After getting comfortable with Kyoka on one side and Ochako on the other. “Are you girls coming tonight for the moving party?” He asked, glancing around to see the girls cuddled with his clones.
“Oh, definitely," Setsuna said with a toothy grin. "It sounds like it's going to be a heck of a party and I want more time with you.”
“I agree with Setsuna," Momo said, holding Izuku's clone like a teddy bear. "It will be a nice send-off for your old home."
“Oh yea, definitely not missing out on Mamadoryia’s food," Mina said with a big smirk on her face.
Toru was sitting on a clone's lap nodding her head. "That and we want to have some fun after working so hard this week."
Ochako snuggled closer to Izuku and let out a content sigh. “More cuddles and Inko’s amazing food?” She tilted her head slightly to smile at Izuku. “Sounds like heaven to me.”
“I’m in," Mei said with a grin. "I will kill for Inko or Izuku's cooking."
Kyoka was sitting in between anIzuku clone's legs resting her back against his chest. She was almost purring as Izuku wrapped his arms around her waist. “I’ll bring the music.” She said, closing her eyes and listening to Izuku’s heartbeat.
“I can’t wait for the party.” Pony said, clinging to Izuku like a koala.
Izuku nodded his head and closed his eyes, enjoying the moment. He knew that before long, their time would be up and they would have to go their separate ways for a bit before getting back together.
After their time was up, Izuku went to pick up Eri and Raphtalia from their class and meet his mom at the car. The girls were excited to have everyone over for dinner. When they arrived at the apartment, it was bustling with activity as the preparations were underway. Rei had gotten the cooking started and when Inko arrived home with Izuku, Eri, and Raphtalia, she jumped in to help get the cooking finished. Izuku's eyes drifted to the corner of the apartment that was stacked high with moving boxes.
Izuku was feeling a few mixed emotions seeing the moving boxes. This apartment had been his home for the past 15 years. He spotted a few places on the wall where pictures had hung there for as long as he could remember. He would miss the apartment, but the apartment was not big enough for his growing family.
He looked over to see Inko and Rei laughing and flirting over near the stove. Eri and Raphtilia were watching Sailor Moon on the couch giggling and singing along with the opening song. Izuku could not help but smile at the change in his life.
He was broken from his thoughts when a knock came to the door. Izuku walked over and his girlfriend's walking into the apartment followed by Rumi, Ryuko, Nemuri, Ryu, Yu, Kugo, Kaina, and Nana.
"Time to kick this shindig off!" Rumi exclaimed, holding several bags of drinks. Before she could even set down her bags, she was 'tackled' by her nieces. "I got you." She easily scooped them up before walking off to the kitchen. Momo and Ochako gave Izuku a kiss on the cheek before heading off to help Rumi keep an eye on the girls.
Mei and Mina quickly led Izuku over to the couch for more cuddles.
Nemuri and Ryu shared a chair nearby to cuddle as well.
"How was your Rescue Operation?" Izuku asked as Mei and Mina snuggled close to his sides. "I saw some clips in the news."
Ryu shrugged her shoulders. "About the same as usual." She replied, resting her head on Nemuri's shoulder. "After we got everything up and running, it went pretty smooth. I am just glad to be back." Ryu pressed a kiss on her girlfriend's cheek.
"I missed you too babe," Nemuri replied, pulling the other woman close. "It has been a long week without you."
Ryu let out a content sigh. “Ain't that the truth." She said nuzzling against Nemuri's neck. "I am so glad to be home."
“Just one big love fest over here.” Mina giggled before looking over the couch to see Kugo and Yu standing over near the kitchen just holding one another. Inko was moving between Kaina and Rei and giving them kisses. “This is what the world needs more of.” Mina lowered back to Izuku's shoulder. "Love and cuddles."
"Agreed." Pony said walking around the couch and sitting on Izuku's lap. "It's going to be weird to move into the new dorms, but I can see several perks." She turned her head enough to wink at Izuku before giggling.
"Papa!" Raphtalia called while sitting on Rumi's shoulders. "Can we play a game before dinner?"
Izuku glanced at his Mom to see if they had time. When Inko nodded her head, Izuku smiled at his daughter. “Sure, I think we have enough players.” He said as cheering could be heard from the Tanuki.
While Izuku was playing a game with Eri, Raphtalia, Pony, and Ryuko, more people arrived at the party. Shoto arrived with his siblings along with Moe and Kaoruko. The last group to arrive was Andros, Reiko, and Dulceia. The apartment was almost bursting with activity as everyone was having a good time and it only grew louder when it was time to eat.
Soon, stories were being swapped and laughter filled the apartment. Izuku glanced over to his Mom, smiling brightly while Kaina and Rei held her close. He was glad to see his Mom happy after everything she had been through in her long life.
Izuku cleared his throat and stood up and held his glass in front of him.
Everyone started to quiet down and Izuku smiled brightly. "I want to thank you all for coming here tonight to celebrate our last night in the apartment." He gave Inko a wink before speaking again. "For as long as I can remember, this apartment has been quiet and lonely. Mom and I have been alone since I was diagnosed as being Quirkless." He never lost his smile as gestured to everyone in the kitchen. "In the past year that has changed and now our apartment is too small to hold all of us comfortably." That got a bout of laughter and giggles from him.
“I gained two amazing daughters that I love with all of my heart.” Eri and Raphtalia both beamed at his words.
"We Love you, Papa!" The girls said at the same time.
"I got several new brothers and sisters to look up to and know they have my back." He glanced over at Rumi, Nemuri, Ryuko, Yu, Fuyumi, Natsuo, Shoto, and Nana. Each of his adopted siblings gave him nods or winks.
“Family that I never knew I needed.” He said getting a bit choked up as he looked at his Uncle Andros, cousin Reiko, and his grandmother Dulceia. "I am still getting to know you all and look forward to some embarrassing stories about my Mom."
This got more laughter from everyone and Inko shot Andros and Dulceia with a warning look.
Dulceia just grinned. “Looking forward to it dear.” She said with a wicked smile on her face. "I have a lot of catching up to do."
Andros just gave Izuku a subtle wink. “I’ll see what I can come up with.” He teased before looking at Inko. “I won’t tell him anything too embarrassing.”
Inko just groaned as Kaina and Rei laughed quietly.
Izuku then looked at his girlfriends and happy tears were running down his face. "I never thought that I would find someone that would love me and I thought for the longest time that I would be alone for the rest of my life." He swallowed as his voice cracked a little. "But somehow, I found my 8 amazing girlfriends that showed me love and affection. You girls make my world so much brighter and I look to the future now with a smile. I love you, girls, with all my heart." Izuku's voice broke again as his girlfriends smiled brightly at him. Ochako, Mina, and Toru were crying at his words. Momo and Kyoka jumped out of their chairs to wrap him in a tight hug. Mei was beaming at him and her eyes sparkled with happiness. Pony blew him a kiss and made a heart with her hands, while Setsuna detached her head to kiss Izuku on the cheek. Momo and Kyoka both kissed Izuku before releasing him from their hug. Ochako took the opportunity to slip in to pull him into a passionate kiss before heading back to her seat.
"Last, but certainly not least," Izuku said after clearing his throat again. "I have my Mom who loves me and I have two Mothers that I claim as well." He looked at Rei and Kaina and bowed his head slightly. "Thank you both for loving my Mom and I know that Mama Kai is ok with my calling her that, but someday, I look forward to calling you Mama Rei."
Rei jumped up from her chair and pulled Izuku into a tight hug. "I'd be honored if you called me that Izuku. "I have another son as well. I told Inko a long time ago that I always dreamed of a long family. It's a bit late, but still perfect to me."
Fire Heart flew over to sit on Eri's lap. ‘Don’t forget me.’ Fire heart teased before swiping a bit of food from Eri’s plate.
Izuku chuckled. “Of course and an amazing Dragon to watch over us.”
“Heck yeah!” Rumi called out, raising her glass. “To the growing Midoriya Family!”
“To the Family!” The room echoed together and soon the kitchen was back to being loud and full of happiness. Various games were played and everyone was having a great time. For the evening, nothing else mattered and everyone was taking the time to relax and just cut loose a bit.
As the evening was drawing to a close, everyone started to head out. Goodbyes were said and Izuku's girlfriends each got their good night kiss before heading home in preparation for moving into the dorms the next day. Eventually, it was just Nana, Izuku, Eri, Raphtalia, Inko Kaina, and Rei left in the apartment for the night. Eri asked for a movie before bed and Izuku agreed since it was Friday. Soon everyone got comfortable in the living room as Izuku had both of his daughters cuddled into his side. Nana was lounging on the floor. Inko, Rei, and Kaina were curled up on the couch together with a blanket.
When the movie was over, Izuku with the help of Kaina got the girls into their beds and quietly closed the door."Well, that was fun," Izuku said softly as he walked back into the living room. “I think we need to do this again soon.”
"I plan on making this a monthly thing," Inko replied, getting up from the couch and pulling her son into a motherly hug. "I know your grandmother will be very happy to spend time with both you and Nana."
"Sounds good to me," Nana said with a yawn. "I'm beat." She stretched her back and gestured to the couch. "I want to get some sleep before we start loading the moving truck in the morning."
“That’s a good idea.” Kaina agreed with a nod of her head. “Tomorrow is going to be a long day.”
Izuku nodded his head and gave each of his mothers a hug and then Nana before heading off to his bed. He laid down and let out a tired sigh when he closed his eyes. Izuku smiled as he drifted off to sleep thinking about how despite his run-in with Nighteye, the day went pretty well. He was looking forward to the Sports Festival and moving into the dorms. Izuku knew that something big was on the horizon and was hoping it would be something good.
Doctor Giraki was washing his hands and grabbed a towel to dry them off. The day had been a successful one. After looking over his test subjects and making notes of their progress for All for One and Scorpina, he went to work on his Nomu’s. Doctor Giraki still had positive success in their genetic engineering, but their genetic codes were finicky with having to deal with the strain of having more than one quirk.
He made his way to the holding cells and was shocked to see that he was out of test subjects. “Dammit.” Giraki groaned, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Why does this have to happen now?" He had come up with a new idea to tweak a subject's DNA to make their body accept more quirks and not reduce their intelligence. That would have to wait until he could get more test subjects. He pulled out his phone and made a call.
“What can I do for you, Doctor?”
Giraki smiled. "Giran, I require another batch of subjects to continue my research." He explained writing down his idea to remind himself of when the new batch arrived.
“Sorry, Doc. All out right now and I won’t have another batch for at least a month.”
“A Month!” Giraki exclaimed, almost breaking the phone in his hand. “I need them ASAP.”
“I know Doc, but it takes time to take people and leave no trace behind. Also, I have heard that a few crews are getting nervous about SPD.”
Giraki grit his teeth and let out an angry huff. “I will await the next drop then.” He hung up the phone fuming for a moment before another idea came to him and he sent a text message.
A few minutes later Scorpina appeared in his lab. “Is there a problem Doctor?” She asked, crossing her arms to show her annoyance. “I was in the middle of something. This better be important.”
"In a manner of speaking, yes," Giraki said cautiously. He knew that Scorpina was dangerous when angry. "My Nomu research is at a crucial point and I am out of subjects for my experiments. I need more."
"That will cost you," Scorpina said, giving him a bored look. "What do you have to offer?"
Giraki thought for a long moment before answering. "I will owe you a favor," Giraki replied, knowing this would not end well, but this gamble could pay off in the long run. “A favor that will betray my work or All for One.”
Scorpina was silent for almost a full minute before she smiled and extended her hand. “Then we have a deal, Doctor.” She said in a sickly-sweet voice. “Any special requests?”
Giraki grinned evilly. “I would like some Hero students.” He said rubbing his hands together. “I know that UA and Ketsubutsu are too heavily protected with their agreement, but the lesser Hero Schools are ripe for the taking.” Giraki walked over to his computer and started typing at the keyboard. "This is a list of the hero Schools that are lightly defended and have the smallest contingent of heroes that patrol them." He printed off the page and handed it to Scorpina. "I look forward to what you will be able to secure for me."
Scorpina glanced at the list and shrugged. "I'll get it taken care of." She said, glancing at her phone out of boredom. "It will take me a few days to make arrangements." She snapped her fingers and vanished from the lab.
Giraki started laughing as he went to start sterilizing the lab so that it would be ready for what he hoped would be a fruitful batch. “I do hope these new ones last longer than the last group.” He muttered to himself.

Chapter Text
The following morning was a busy one from the moment Izuku woke up. Inko was making breakfast while Kaina and Rei went to wake up Eri and Raphtalia.
They enjoyed their meal together before they had to get the last of the packing done before the movers arrived. Rei was keeping the girls entertained while the others packed.
Yu and Kugo came by and picked up the girls for a surprise trip to the Zoo. Both girls had been ecstatic about it and were bouncing off the walls before they left.
Shortly after the girls departed, Izuku, Nana, Inko, Rei, and Kaina got to work and got everything finished just in time for the movers to arrive. Nezu had hired a very reputable company and had the apartment empty and loaded into the truck in under an hour.
"Feels so weird to see it like this." Izuku mused looking at the empty apartment. "Going to be strange not to come back here." A mixture of emotions filled him.
"I know sweetie." Inko said, pulling her son into a one-armed hug. "But this part of our story is ending and a new one is about to begin."
Nana walked over and messed with Izuku’s ponytail. "Well, now we’ll all be closer together on campus and build some new memories." She said, giving her little brother a big smile. "Not to mention Mom is going to have some more room for her girlfriends."
"Oh shush." Inko shot back with a smile. "Just because you’re the only one not getting some, is no reason to be jealous."
Nana choked on air as Kaina, Rei and Izuku started laughing. "Mom!" She cried out giving Inko a look of betrayal. “That is just cold.”
Inko walked over and pulled Nana into a hug. “I’m sorry dear.” She said, patting Nana on the shoulder. “I’m sure one day you will meet someone that will make you happy.”
Nana rolled her eyes. “Not in a big hurry for that Mom.” She replied, glancing over at Izuku. “How about one last picture before we head out to UA campus?”
Izuku gave his big sister a smile. “Sure thing.” Izuku set his phone up and tapped the timer as he hurried back just in time for his phone to snap a picture of the five of them. “I think this will be a fond memory.”
Izuku pulled her children into a quick hug. “We need to get going.” She said, gesturing to the door. “Don’t forget that Nezu wants us to swing by his office first.”
Izuku nodded his head after making his way to the front door for the last time. “Yeah, he wanted to make an announcement before everyone started moving in.” He looked back at the apartment for the final time and headed to the car.
Inko dropped the keys on the kitchen counter and followed after her son.
UA campus was busy with countless moving trucks filtering in and out of the campus. All students from class 1-A and 1-B received a message from the Principal.
Students,
I know today will be a busy day for everyone with moving in the Dorms and getting your new rooms set up to your liking. I would like to request the Heroic Students of 1-A and 1-B please report to the auditorium for an important meeting that will take no more than 15 minutes.
Please arrive at the Auditorium no later than 10 am.
Thank you for your time
Principal Nezu.
The room was filled well before 10 am with both parents and students. Various conversations were going on when Nezu and Izuku in his SPD uniform walked onto the stage. Izuku spotted his girlfriends and gave them a wink.
Nezu made his way to the podium and cleared his throat. “Thank you all for coming to this short meeting.” He told the room with a slight bow of his head. “I wanted to welcome the Heroics class in person to the UA Dorms. The Dorm will be called UA Heights and will be one big building to hold both classes with ease. I will let the Dorm Manager tell you about the perks and rules of living here on campus and would like the parents to know, they are welcome to visit their children after school hours and on weekends.” He could see a lot of nodding and voices of approval. “Now, I would like to have Lieutenant Midoriya explain a new change that is coming to the hero course students that have received a Morpher.”
“Thank you, Sir.” Izuku said moving to replace Nezu at the podium. “I know there has been a lot of bad press coming from the commission and it has been aimed at the Ranger Program. After a long discussion with the President of the International Hero Commission, when we take our Final Exams at the end of the semester, Any Ranger that passes will be given a Provisional Power Rangers License. It will allow you to respond as a Ranger without being dispatched out with a team.” Izuku looked out to see his classmates whispering amongst themselves. “Think of it like a Provisional Hero License, it will allow you to respond in an emergency without having to ask permission. We are doing this to prove that we are being held to a higher standard.” Izuku gave his classmates a bright smile. “I have faith in all of you and I will be offering tutoring sessions when we get closer to our Final Exams. Those who do not have a Morpher will be given a different exam. We will not set you up for failure. Also, keep in mind that you could receive one in the future.” Izuku let his words sit for a moment before he finished up. “Thank you all for your time. As our Final Exams get closer, more information will be revealed about the Ranger licenses. Please check in with Cementoss, Vlad King and Ectoplasm to get your room assignment and we can get everyone moved in before it gets too late in the day. At 4:30pm there is a Dorm Meet and Greet. Thank you all and have a wonderful day.”
Izuku and Nezu left the stage as the room started clapping.
Izuku changed back into his street clothes and headed off to the dorms. Nezu had placed his room assignment and keys beside his locker before heading back to his office. He made his way through the wave of movers and made it to UA Heights. It was a massive 7 story building with each room having a small balcony connected to it.
“Wow.” Izuku said walking inside to see the common was massive with two different areas with couches, chairs, and a large TV. The kitchen looked like it belonged in a cooking show with multiple stoves and prep area. There were 4 different refrigerators and multiple other appliances. “That will make mealtimes easier.”
He made his way over to the row of elevators and waited for the doors to open and walked inside. Izuku hit the 7 button and waited as he rode the elevator up to his floor. When he stepped out and looked around, he noticed that half the floor was walled off with a door with an engraved plate next to the door.
Izuku walked over and read the plate.
APT 701
Inko Midoriya & Family.
Dorm Manager.
Izuku looked to see his key read 702. He turned to see a door nearby and found an engraved plate next to the door.
APT 702
Izuku Midoriya
Izuku put his key into the lock and opened the door. “Uh,” Izuku managed to say as he walked in to find his room was more of an apartment. Izuku could see his moving boxes were already inside and stacked neatly by the door. He had a decent sized living room with a couch that would hold Izuku, his girlfriend and his daughters with ease. A TV was sitting on a nice stand in front of the couch.
Izuku noted another door off to the side and figured that it was connected to his mom's apartment to allow his daughters access to him.
He turned to look and saw there was a nice kitchen that reminded Izuku of his old apartments. It had a nice amount to prepare food and appliances to cook with. Next to the kitchen was a small dining area with a table just big enough for his daughter and girlfriends. He walked down a short hallway to find two doors. One was a large bathroom to accommodate multiple people. The other was a large bedroom with a walk-in closet. The bed was huge.” Izuku walked over and had to guess it was an Alaskan king size bed.
“This is too much.” Izuku murmured when he spotted a folded note on his night stand. He walked over and opened the note.
Izuku,
I know by now you think this is too much, but it is not. You are a father to two young girls and 8 ladies that love them like their own children. This is a place where you can go have some privacy and to be a family.
Enjoy this time while you can.
Yours truly,
Nezu.
P.S. In the drawer beneath the note is a key for each of the women.
Izuku chuckled and sent his girlfriend’s his room number before starting to unpack his things. By lunch time, Izuku was putting the last of his things away and looked around his finished room. He went to look in the fridge and smiled to see it was fully stocked. Izuku pulled out his phone and sent his girlfriends a message.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Hey, come up to my room, I will make us all some lunch.”
Dinogirl (Setsuna): Izuku, I love you and your cooking.
Gravity Girl (Ochako): Same. Be up there soon!
Forge (Momo): That is greatly appreciated darling.”
LovelyPhantom (Toru): How are you able to cook in your room? Not that I am going to turn down your cooking.
Green Bunny (Izuku): Short version, I have a kitchen in my room.
Alien Queen (Mina): SCORE! This is great Izu.
Rock Goddess (Kyoka): Izzy, you rock!
Tech Girl (Mei): I just got my room set up and I am head to you now!
Cowgirl (Pony): Dibs on first kiss!
Izuku shook his head at Pony call dibs as his phone started buzzing. He made sure the door was unlocked and went to get lunch started.
10 minutes later, a series of knocks tell him his girlfriends have arrived. “IT'S OPEN!” He called out as he flipped one of the sandwiches and stirred the soup. “Welcome girls!” He checks his food before turning around to see them all looking in awe of his room. “Welcome to our apartment.”
“Our Apartment?’ Ochako said, turning to stare at Izuku in shocked surprise.
Izuku pointed to the counter with 8 identical keys. “Nezu gave me a bigger place so we can have some privacy and spend time with Eri and Raphtalia.” He turned back to check on the food. “So, I am just going to call it our apartment.”
Mina rushed forward and turned Izuku around and planted a passionate kiss on his lips. “Do you mean it Izuku?” She asked after pulling back from the kiss and wrapping her arms around him.
“Of course,” Izuku replied, lifting her chin up with his thumb and forefinger. “You girls are very precious to me.” He presses a tender kiss to Mina’s lips. “You all can spend as much time up here as you want. There is plenty of space and I would get lonely without you girls.”
One by one the girls walked over to give Izuku a kiss.
“How about we let Izu finish cooking while we look around our new place.” Momo suggested after getting her kiss.
“Sounds good!” Pony said before heading down the hall.
“Do you need any help?” Toru asked, nuzzling into Izuku's side. “I’m not much of a cook, but I can help here and there.”
Izuku kisses Toru temple. “Can you stir the soup while I finish up the sandwiches?” He asked his chameleon girl.
“Sure thing.” Toru whispered before moving to stir the soup and moving her tail to wrap around his waist.
“I can set the table.” Ochako said, walking over to kiss Izuku on the cheek.
Izuku gives Ochako a big smile. “Thanks. I appreciate it.” He told her before surprising her with a quick kiss. “Are you sure you don’t want to look around the apartment?”
“I can wait.” Ochako replied with a purr before sashaying off to set the table.
Izuku just grinned as he went back to cooking for everyone. “It feels like a dream.” Izuku jumped as someone groped his butt. He looked to see Momo standing behind him with a grin.
“Definitely not a dream darling.” Momo said before giving him a wink and walking toward the hallway.
“That was hot.” Toru murmured as her skin turned a light pink.
Izuku just nodded his head and focused on finishing their lunch.
“Come and get it girls.” Izuku called out as he started placing their lunch on the table. “Turkey melts with tomato bisque.” He looked around as the girls scrambled to the table. “Sorry it's nothing too fancy.”
Kyoka shot her boyfriend a look. “Izzy, the fact that you cooked for us is enough.” She told him and extended jack to booped him on the nose. “The food smells amazing.”
Setsuna detached her head and gave Izuku a kiss before reattaching her head. “Izuku, you also called this place our apartment. You made major boyfriend points with us.”
Mei was chowing down with vigor. “If you decide to just retire and be a cook, I would be happy.” She said licking her lips. “Zuzu, you spoil us.”
Ochako was savoring her meal. “Izuku, can you teach me how to cook like this?”
Izuku nodded his head. “Sure, I don’t mind.” He said looking around the table. “Anyone want seconds?”
“ME!” Mei and Pony said at the same time.
Izuku laughed and went to get them more soup. “I made plenty for everyone.” He said walking over to fill both the plates and bowls.
While Izuku had his back turned to the table, Toru sent a quick message to the girl's chat. Pony and Mei shrugged at the message, but Ochako, Kyoka, Mina, Momo, Setsuna sent a dirty look. Toru just gave them a wink and a Cheshire grin.
After lunch is over, Izuku looks at the clock, “We still have some time before the girls get back from the aquarium and before we have to be at the Dorm meeting.” He said picking up the dirty dishes. “What do you girls want to do until then?”
All the girls look at one another before looking back at Izuku. “Cuddles.” Was their unanimous answer.
“How about we all help clean up and then move to cuddle on the couch?” Momo suggested as she helped pick up the dishes on the table as well.
“Sounds good to me.” Ochako said, walking over to start filling up the sink with water.
“Let's get moving people.” Mina said with a wide grin on her face. “The fast we get this done, the faster we get our cuddles.”
Ochako jumped out of her chair and rushed over to help Izuku wash the dishes. “Sounds like a plan.” She said grabbing a plate to start scrubbing it. “Someone pick a movie or something for us to watch.”
“I’m on it!” Setsuna said, darting towards the couch.
Pony was right on her heels. “No, I got it!” She shouted trying to wrestle the lizard girl. “I’ll find something!”
Kyoka rolled her eyes and turned to watch Izuku cleaning up and admiring his backside.
The apartment was soon filled with laughter as they watched an old movie that was an action/comedy. They had formed a cuddle pile on the couch and Izuku and the girls were enjoying the time together. The girls would steal kisses whenever they could and Izuku would return their kisses with enthusiasm.
When the movie was over, no one moved to pick something different or to turn it off.
Izuku looked around at his girlfriend’s looking content just lying on the couch. “Is this going to be a common thing now?” He asked with a chuckle.
“You better believe it buster.” Ochako said lightly, poking his side with her finger.
Izuku just gave his Gravity Queen a smile. “I like the sound of that.” He replied while running his hand through Momo's hair.
Momo was almost purring as she felt her boyfriend's hand running through her long hair. “Better get used to that darling.” She told him with a content sigh. “We want to spend as much time together with you as possible.” Momo nuzzled a bit closer.
Izuku gave them a bright smile. “I like the sound of that.”
“We will need to find a new rotation to pick movies.” Mina said, snuggling closer to the pile. “I want to watch Alien with Izuku.”
“Well figure it out.” Kyoka said with her eyes closed and lying with the group.
Mei glanced at her phone. “The girls will be back in about 20 minutes.” She said not want to get up at the moment.
“I hope they had fun.” Pony said, looking at Izuku and the other girls.
“I’m sure they had a blast.” Toru chimed in, forcing herself to sit up.
Setsuna laughed. “I bet they charmed everyone at the zoo.” She said, tapping Izuku's nose with a detached finger.
“Set a time for 15 minutes and we can snuggle until then.” Izuku suggested as he knew that once his daughter got back, they would be full of energy.
“Done.” Kyoka said sending one of her jacks to wrap around her boyfriend’s wrist.
“PAPA!” Eri and Raphtalia screamed together as they rushed into the apartment and made a straight short for their parents. “MAMA!” Eri was clutching an Orca stuffed animal and Raphtalia was holding a red panda stuffed animal.
“Hey sweeties.” Momo greeted as she knelt down for Eri to run towards her. “That is a nice stuffed animal.”
“Mr. Kugo got it for me.” Eri said, hugging the orca tighter.
Raphtalia stopped in front of Setsuna and held out her stuffed animal in front of her. “Look at what Aunt Yu got me Mama Setsuna!” The Tanuki said, bouncing with excitement.
“That was nice of her.” She said looking over at Yu and Kugo. “Thanks for taking them.”
Yu waved her hand dismissively. “They were a delight to take and it was a lot of fun.” She said leaning against her boyfriend. “We would love to take them again someday.”
Izuku walked over and hugged his sister. “I really appreciate it and it seems the girls had a great time.” He said pointing to see the girls were retelling their day to the Mama’s. “Thank you for doing this. I know you are busy Kugo.” Izuku extended a hand towards him.
“It's no sweat.” Kugo said, accepting Izuku's hand. “They had a blast and I did as well.”
Yu looked at the time. “We have a dinner reservation.” She said walking over to give Izuku a hug. “See you in a few days for family dinner.”
“See you soon.” Izuku replied as goodbyes were said to Yu and Kugo headed out for their date. He headed over to sit down as he listened to his daughters tell him about all the animals they got to see and the amazing dolphin show they got to see.
They spent their remaining time before the dorm meeting being a family and enjoying the excitement and giggles that filled the apartment by the Tanuki and Unicorn’s first trip to the Zoo.
When the time came to head down to the Dorm meeting, A knock came to Izuku's door and a moment later Kaina walked in with a grin.
“Hey girls,” Kaina said, giving both girls a pat on the head. “Since Grandma Inko and Rei will be busy at the meeting, you two get to hang out with me and watch tv with snacks.” She said, taking a thinking pose. “Unless you girls want to sit through a boring meeting.”
“Bye Papa, Mama’s.’ Raphtalia said, quickly grabbing Kaina’s pant leg.
Eri did the same and waved at them. “Have fun. Bye Papa, Mama!”
Kaina gave Izuku and the girls a wink. “Don’t be late or Inko will come looking for all of you.” She said in an ominous tone. “Later kids.”
After they left the room, Pony looked over at Izuku. “Why does that give me a bad feeling?” She asked with a nervous laugh.
Izuku just nodded his head. “I say we sit near the exit and make a fast escape if this goes bad.” He suggested looking at the time. “We better get going before Mom comes looking for us.”
The girls murmured their agreement as they followed Izuku out of the apartment. Izuku and the girls patted their pockets to make sure the keys to the apartment.
Izuku and the girls arrived downstairs to see the large living room was packed with their fellow classmates. Katsuki was sitting alone near a window as far as humanly possible he could get from anyone else in the room. They decided to ignore the angry blonde and went to sit by their friends.
“Hey guys,” Izuku called out as he waved at Kirishima, Fumikage, Denki, and the turtle brothers. “Did you all get your stuff moved in alright?”
Kirishima gave Izuku a big grin. “Yeah dude.” He said, offering Izuku a fist bump. “I got everything moved in thanks to my parents and Melissa.” Kirishima said, throwing an arm around the blonde girl. “How about you?”
“My stuff was already inside my apartment when I got to my room.” Izuku replied with a shrug. “I just had to unpack it and spend some time with the girls.”
“Where are those adorable chibi’s at?” Melissa asked, looking around Izuku and his girlfriends. “I want to spoil them a bit.”
“They went with Kaina.” Pony said plopping down on one of the couches. “They didn’t want to sit through the meeting.”
Mei was still standing near Izuku tinkering with something she had been working on the last day or so. “I can’t blame them.” She said adjusting a screw on the gadget with a small screwdriver. “I’d rather be working on something in the lab with Donnie.”
“Mei has a point.” Donatello said tinkering with a gadget of his own. “I feel like our time could be better spent working on what we need for the Sports Festival.”
“All work and no play, make Mei and Donatello dull people.” Mina said, crossing her arms. “WE need some fun with all the school work and training.”
“I agree.” Denki said as sat down next to Ibara. “I have been struggling with schoolwork this week.” He shuddered at how lost he felt with his recent homework assignments.
“You are getting better.” Ibara said, rubbing circles on her boyfriend's back. “It may not seem like a lot to you, but you are doing great.”
“Awe.” Toru cooed at the adorable couple. “After this, we need to get a game going or something.”
“Yo like I’m down.” Michelangelo said, giving the group a thumbs up while lying on the floor. “Fun before homework.”
“That is what I am talking about.” Mina said, offering the turtle a high-five. Michelangelo returned it with a goofy grin on his face.
“Mina,” Momo said, giving her a disapproving look. “If you get your homework done before the weekend, then you have more free time.”
“She has a point Mina.” Ochako said in agreement as led Izuku to the couch and had him sit down first on the middle cushion. “We can work on our homework together tomorrow and get it done so we have more time to relax.”
Setsuna walked over and sat down on Izuku's lap. “Let's do that tomorrow afternoon.” She suggested leaning back against Izuku’s chest. “Then we can go have some fun.”
“I’m down.” Kyoka said, slipping to the last free cushion next to Izuku and getting comfortable. “I need Izuku to walk me through our history assignment. It’s so boring.”
Izuku wrapped an arm around Kyoka's waist. “I’d love to help you with that.’ He said looking at the rest of his girlfriends. “Tomorrow afternoon, we can do our homework and relax the rest of the evening.”
“We can study down here tomorrow.” Melissa offered. “That way we can all work together and get it done and get to know each other better in the process.”
“That will work.” Shoto said, walking over to join the growing group. “If we are allowed to join you all.”
“More the merrier.” Pony said, giving Shoto a thumbs up.
Reiko took a seat near Shoto and bowed her head towards Pony. “Thank you.” She replied softly. “We would be delighted to join you all.”
Leonardo was sitting near his brothers and Jennika before giving the group a nod. “That would be an excellent Idea.” He said pointing at Mickey and Raph. “I know those two will need it.”
“Ouch dude.” Michelangelo said with a mock hurt expression on his face.
“Oh, bite me Leo.” Raphael said with a deep growl.
Jennika just rolled her eyes at Raphael and Leonardo snipping back and forth. She was taking the time to chat with Tsu and Kinoko. She would occasionally send a message to her certain elf boy before going back to talking with her friends.
“I wonder what this meeting will be about?” Fumikage chimed in as Dark Shadow appeared looking around the room.
“Looks like everyone is here.” Dark Shadow said, moving back to rest his beat on Fumikage’s shoulder. “ Well, Minus Hitoshi anyway.”
“Well, I can blame him for that. He wanted to stay with Himiko and his Mom at their apartment.” Izuku said, looking at his phone. “It should start in a few minutes.” He heard a door open and voices coming from the elevators. “That should be them now.”
Izuku glanced over to see his Mom, Rei, Recovery Girl, Midnight and Pixie-Bob walking towards them with someone new. A humanoid gray rat dressed in a simple robe and walking with a simple wooden cane. He noticed that Pixie-Bob was holding two large brown paper bags and a sense of dread started running down his spine.
“Splinter?” Raphael asked, turning to look at his brothers. “Did you know he was coming here for this?”
“No.” Leonardo replied looking just as confused as his brothers and Jennika. “I know he had a few meetings with Nezu lately, but he didn’t say what they were about.”
“Guess we are about to find out.” Donatello said with a shrug as she was doing a bit of calibrating on his gadget.
“I have a bad feeling about this.” Izuku murmured as he noticed a mischievous smile on Midnight's face. “My sister looks like she is up to something.”
“Then we prepare to make a run for it.” Kyoka said shuddering as a chill ran up her spine.
Momo slowly nodded her head. “I’ll make what we need to escape if needed.” She said starting to look for exits.
Inko and the group stood in front of the students and gave them all a smile.
“Thank you all for coming to the dorm meeting,” Inko said brightly to the room. “I'm sure that you all Remember my name, but just in case, I am Inko Midoriya and I will be the Dorm Manager here at Alliance Heights.” She gave the students a moment to process her words. “Now, I will be making sure that you all follow the rules and will report you to Nezu, Mr. Aizawa, or Vlad King to handle any disciplinary actions for breaking the rules or damaging the dorm. That being said, I also have some limited power for punishments and I hope I don’t have to use them.” She gave them all a sickly-sweet smile.
The room started to shudder in fear at her smile.
Inko clapped her hands together. “Now, you will all be expected to make it to class on time, clean up any messes you make in the living area or your dorms. The fridges will be filled on a weekly basis on the very basics. If you want something added to the weekly order or need something special dietary wise, please let me know.” Inko watched the students nod and murmured their agreements. “You will have a curfew of 9pm during the week and 11pm on Saturday. Sunday you will need to be in the dorms by 8pm. If you are going to be late or get stuck somewhere, please call the Dorm. I left a business card on the desk of each of your rooms to get a hold of myself or my staff.” She turned and gestured to Rei and Splinter. “Rei Shimo will be the Assistant Dorm Manager and Splinter has volunteered to assist any way he can as the groundskeeper.” Inko looked at the students. “Any questions?”
“Will our family and siblings be allowed to visit us? Kero.” Tus asked, breaking the silence in the room.
“Of course.” Inko replied, nodding her head. “Have them give me a call and we can get them through security and be escorted to the building.”
Tsu nodded her head and made happy frog noises as she was hugged by Fumikage and Kinoko
Tetsutetsu raised his hand. “What time are we allowed to leave the dorms to go work out before class?” He asked getting a few murmurs of agreement from Kirishima and Shoji.
“You may leave the dorms at 6am during the week an 530am during the weekend.” Inko answered before looking around the room and pointing at Itsuka. “Yes?”
“Will it just be You and Miss Shimo and Splinter helping out around the dorms?” Itsuka gestured to the combined Hero class. There are a lot of us.”
“Oh, that’s easy.” Inko said with a chuckle. “I have created with Nezu’s blessing of course, a type of volunteer staff for parents to help out. Your parents would sign up for days they are available and come to the dorms to help with various tasks.” Several of the students had alarmed or terrified expressions on their faces.
“So, our parents would be here to look after us?” Denki asked, realizing that his mom would volunteer in a heartbeat to spend more time with him.
“Yes.” Inko said, giving them a devilish smile. “That way, they can share embarrassing stories about you to keep you from misbehaving.” She laughed at the realization set in for the students. “Lots of baby pictures and other images you would not want your classmates to see.” She glanced around the room. “So, do you have any other questions?”
“Can we fu-freaking go now?” Katsuki growled out barely catching himself from swearing in front of Inko. He remembered that last time he swore in front of her as a kid and the look he gave him still sends chills down his spine. “I got better things to do then sit around here with these extras.”
“Not quite yet.” Inko said, giving Katsuki a warning look. “One, watch your language when any young children are around and two, I will pass this part of the meeting off to Recovery Girl and her assistants.”
“Thank you Inko.” Recovery Girl said, pulling out a remote from her pocket and tapping a button as a movie screen started to descend from the ceiling. “Since it will be a co-ed dorm, I was asked to have a discussion with all of you.”
Izuku, his girlfriend’s and several other students sat up a bit straighter and glanced over to Midnight, pulled a familiar DVD case from a pouch on her belt.
Setsuna’s eyes went wide and pointed to the case that Midnight held in her hand with a look of pure terror. “IT’S THE TALK! EVERYBODY SCATTER!” She shouted as the students started to jump to the feet to make a run for it.
Tenya was sitting in his chair looking confused at his classmates. “STOP RUNNING IN THE DORM!” he called out to his classmates. “This is something we need to know!”
The rest of the class ignored him as they were trying to escape from the lecture.
“I love it when they run.” Midnight said pulling out a remote control as well and tapping a button as the doors and windows all over the dorm started to close and lock themselves. “Now, Pixie, would you help me bring these naughty students back here for Recovery Girl’s lecture?”
“I would be delighted to.” Pixie-Bob replied with a laugh. “This is going to be so much fun.”
Despite their best efforts, the students were brought back to the room one by one. DECA even teleported Izuku and his girlfriend’s back after they managed to escape through wind thanks to Momo and Mina Quirks.
After everyone was seated again, Recovery Girl cleared her throat. “Now that you all have wasted my time and I was going to make this quick and painless for you all.” She said looking at the students with an annoyed look on her face. “I am going to let Midnight and Pixie-Bob take over for me and make this as drawn out and awkward as possible.”
“Excellent.” Midnight said with a giddy laugh as she licked her lips. “We can talk about the various types of couples, throuples, groups, and even harems that have been acted for over a century.” She gave her students a wicked grin. “So much to teach you all.” Midnight started to cackle.
“Not to mention the proper way to put on condoms for both guys and girls.” Pixie-Bob added with a matching grin while reaching into the two paper bags sitting at her feet and pulling out a box of condoms and several bananas. “This way you all get some hands-on training.”
Rei leaned closer to Inko. “Isn’t this a bit much?” She asked, unable to suppress a snicker.
Inko just gave her girlfriend a smile. “I thought this would get the point across with 40 boys and girls living together.” She whispered, gesturing to the students. “This way, they will think twice before taking the chance to get someone pregnant.”
Splinter let out a low chuckle. “This saves me having to give this discussion to my boys and Jennika.” He crossed his arms and gave Inko a conspiratorial smile. “You are indeed wise beyond your years.”
“Why thank you Splinter.” Inko said with a wink. “How about we go enjoy some nice tea and while they get their lesson.”
“Splendid.” Splinter said in agreement as he walked to the kitchen.
Rei following behind Inko and glanced back to see the embarrassed look on her son's face. “Let's check on them in a bit to make sure those two don’t scar them all for life.” She suggested as groans could be heard from the other room..
“Sure.” Inko replied with a laugh. “We’ll head be there in about an hour.” She went over to fill the kettle and place it on the stove.
The trio started laughing as they waited for the water to boil.
An hour later, Midnight turned off the projector and looked back at her students. “Now, that concludes our lesson for the night.” She said, still grinning. “Anyone have any questions or need more practice with the Bananas?”
The room was silent. The boys and girls were both flustered and red faced at the detailed lesson they had all just received.
“Then you are all free to go!’ Pixie-bob said laughing as the students darted in all directions. “Awe, they ran away.” She gave Midnight a fake pout.
Midnight cackled. “That was so much fun.” She said looking over towards Inko Rei and Splinter. “how about something to drink before we head home.”
Pixie-Bob’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Lead the way babe.”
After the impromptu lesson with his sister, everyone decided to get out of the dorms for a while. Izuku and the girls went up to take Eri and Raphtalia outside and let them play for a bit. It also allowed for them to cool off a bit. It wasn’t long before Izuku and his girlfriends were chasing their adorable daughters. When everyone started to get hungry, they headed back to the apartment to fix something for dinner.
Izuku, Ochako, and Pony worked together to make something quick and easy. When dinner was over and the dishes were washed, Eri begged to watch a movie and Raphtalia was right beside her begging with puppy dog eyes.
Momo and Mei were the first ones to cave and it was back to the couch for family time. Izuku let out a content sigh as he looked around to see his daughters smiling brightly and being cuddled with the loves of his life.
By the time the movie was over, Eri and Raphtalia were sound asleep. Izuku scooped up Raphtalia and Toru picked up Eri and they headed through the extra door in the apartment and took them to their bedroom. He waved at his Mom as she was cuddled on the couch with Kaina and Rei watching a movie. Izuku and Toru got both of the girls tucked into their beds before quietly making their way back to his apartment.
When Izuku locked the door, he turned around to see his apartment was empty except for Toru sitting on the arm of the couch. “Where did everyone go?” Izuku asked, walking toward his remaining girlfriend.”
“I called dibs for the night.” Toru replied as her skin shifted between pink and red. “I-I wanted you to take me to bed.” Toru reached out and took his hand in hers.
“Are you sure?” Izuku asked, taking a step closer to Toru and caressing her cheek. “I don’t want you to feel like you have to do this.”
Toru nuzzled his hand. “I’m Sure Izu.” She replied softly.
“How do you want to do this?” Izuku asked pressing a kiss to Toru temple.
"I'm going to take the first shower and then I want you to meet me in the bedroom." Toru told her boyfriend before giving him a brief kiss on the lips and skipping towards the bathroom.
Izuku swallowed hard as he watched Toru skip away. He went to double check to make sure the doors to his apartment were locked.
"I'm finished in the shower~." Toru called about a moment before the bedroom door opened. "Don't keep me waiting too long~."
Izuku hurried to the bathroom and took a detailed shower before wrapping a towel around his waist. "Toru." He called out as he walked into the bedroom to find it looked empty. "Where did you go?"
Izuku felt hands ghost over his stomach as a kiss was placed on the back of his neck. "Toru."
"How I've dreamed of this." Toru whispered as she ran her fingers over Izuku's muscular chest and moved them down towards his towel.
Izuku felt his heart beating faster. "No fair." Izuku groaned as Toru played with his towel. "I want to see my beautiful Chameleon queen."
Toru let her invisibility slip around to look Izuku in the eyes. "You gave me so much Izuku." She said softly and placed her hands on her chest. "You gave me the ability to be seen and you stole my heart." She leaned up on her tippy toes to place a tender kiss on Izuku lips.
Izuku wrapped his arms around Toru's waist and pulled her closer to him. He deepened the kiss and heard Toru moan into his mouth as her tail wrapped around his left wrist.
"Wow." Izuku replied softly as he broke the kiss to look at Toru's beautiful face. "I see an angel in front of me."
Toru's skin turned a slight pink. "Izuku." She whimpered, burying her face into her boyfriend's chest. "Stop being so perfect."
"Only when you stop being so adorable." Izuku replied leaning down to start kissing the side of Toru's neck. "You could be a model with your beauty."
"Oh!" Toru moaned as she felt Izuku nip her neck. "N-No fair." She slipped a hand down Izuku's body and pulled the towel off and gripped his cock. "Is this for me?" She started to stroke him very slowly and moved her tail to tease Izuku's inner thigh.
Izuku decided to return the favor and started to kiss each of her scales one at a time while running his hands over her body.
Toru shuddered at each kiss and felt Izuku's hands glide over her body. After 15 years of being invisible and touch starved, being around Izuku was intoxicating for her. She redoubled her effort in stroking Izuku faster and moved her tail up to caress his balls. "Touch me please." Toru whined when she felt Izuku hand land at the base of her tail.
Izuku grunted as he was putty in Toru's hand as she continued to stroke his cock. "Getting close Toru." He said moving his hand down the length of her tail until Izuku reached the tip and gave it a light squeeze.
Toru gasped as a powerful surge ran through her body as Izuku continued to tease her tail. "Izu." Toru panted as she felt her arousal start running down her legs. "My tail is very sensitive."
"Good." Izuku grunted out as he tried to hold out a bit longer. "Cum for me my Queen." He gave Toru's tail another squeeze and nipped her neck and sucked hard enough to leave a hickey.
Toru saw stars as she came harder than ever before and her legs nearly buckled. "Your turn Izuku." She said in a low sultry voice.
“Toru.” Izuku grunted as he came on Toru's stomach. "That is amazing." He murmured before stealing a kiss.
"So warm." Toru muttered looking at her cum covered stomach. "Take me to bed Izuku." She licked her lips. I want you inside me."
“Let me clean you up.” Izuku said, reaching for his discarded towel, but Toru’s tail wrapped around his wrist.
“Leave it.” Toru said, gesturing to the bed. “I like it on my skin.” She started rubbing her glistening thighs together. “Please Izuku,”
“As you wish.” Izuku replied, gripping her ass and lifted her up and set her to the bed. “You still look radiant Toru.”
Toru shifted on the bed and gave Izuku a big smile. “Izuku.” She whined as her skin turned a bright pink.
“Just telling you the truth.” Izuku told her as he reached over to the nightstand and pulled out a condom. “Don’t want to forget this.” He slipped on the condom and moved between her legs to line himself up with Toru’s soaked flower. “Are you sure you want to do this?”
Toru wrapped her legs around his waist and let out a whine. “Yes.” She felt the tip tease her lower lips. “Just take me gently.”
“Of course.” Izuku told her before leaning down to give her a kiss. He started to push into Toru slowly and watch her arch her back as his cock started to stretch her out. “DO I need to stop?” He could feel how tight she was.
“Don’t you dare.” Toru grunted out as wrapped her legs tighter around him. “You are just bigger than any toy I have ever owned.” She moaned as she felt his cock brush up against a few spots that made her cum. “Just shove it in already!”
Izuku looked down to see he was more than halfway and caressed her cheek. “If that is what my queen wants, but this may hurt.”
“Do it.” Toru locking her ankles together and lightly slapping Izuku thigh with her tail. “Fill me up Izu.”
“Ok.” Izuku pulled back slightly and thrusted the rest of the way in. Toru’s pussy was so wet that it allowed his cock to slide the rest of the way in to bottom out inside her. Izuku watched as Toru let out a silent gasp before he felt his crotch get soaked. “Are you ok?”
“Never better.” Toru panted as she gasped for air. “J-just don’t move for a minute please.” She never felt like this before and could help but clench down on his length inside her. “Mei and Pony were kidding about how big you feel inside.”
Izuku grunted as he felt Toru clenching down on him. “Tell me when you want me to continue.” He reached out to hold her hand as Toru adjusted to his girth.
Izuku placed kisses on Toru's neck, cheeks, forehead as he waited for her to adjust. "Take your time Toru." He said gently as pressed a tender kiss to Toru's lips. "We can stop if this is too much."
Toru gave Izuku a sweet smile. "I'm ok now." She said, reaching up with her hand to caress Izuku's face. "Just go slow please."
"I can do that." Izuku replied while he started thrusting slowly into Toru. "You tell me how you want it dear."
Toru nodded her head as she let out a long drawn out moan. "Just like that." She panted out as Izuku’s cock was hitting her just right over and over again. "You can go faster."
Izuku changed up her ryrhem.to give Toru what she wanted and gripped her hip with his left hand while his right hand fondled her breast. "How is this? He asked as the sound of skin slamming together filled the room.
"Don’t stop." Toru said as she arched her back when an orgasm peaked and she came again. "More!"
Izuku continued his pace and watched Toru skin shift through the colors of the rainbow. He would occasionally tease her tail to push her over the edge. “I’m close, Toru.” He said feeling his own orgasm building.
“Inside.” Toru moaned as she felt the biggest orgasm in her life about to break free. “Fill me up Izuku!”
Izuku felt spurred on and sped up slightly as Toru wrapped her arms around his neck moaning “Yes.” over and over again.
Izuku pulled back until only the tip remained and thrusted back in deep to finish. “COMING!” He growled out as he came inside Toru.
Toru cried out in pleasure as she came so hard that the bed was soaked and she collapsed to the bed in a panting mess. “Oh god.” She said between pants. “I-I can see stars.” She disappeared and reappeared a few times as his mind rebooted. “That was amazing.”
“Glad to hear my Queen.” Izuku said slowly pulling out of Toru and was sitting on his keeps as the now full condom hung off the end of his cock.
Toru looked to see that the condom was close to bursting and found an urge for more. She slowly got to her hands and knees and moved closer to Izuku. “So much.” She mused pulling the condom off and tying it off. “You could have gotten me pregnant a few times over.” Toru ran her tongue over Izuku’s cock before wrapping her lips around it to suck it clean.
Izuku moaned at Toru mentioning the word pregnant and then started sucking him off. Izuku was still sensitive and it felt amazing. “Toru.’ He groaned as he felt himself get hard.
“Lay down Izuku.” Toru asked, pulling back from his cock. “I want to ride you this time.” She moved to the drawer and grabbed a condom and decided to tease him a bit. She wrapped her tail and his cock and started to stroke him while she opened the condom. “How do you like my tail now?”
“I love it.” Izuku said, shuddering as her tail moved up and down his length. “Just like the rest of you.”
Toru moved to slide the condom on his dick and hovered over the tip. “One more time.” She said slowly lowering herself down. “Then, we are going to take a shower.” She started moaning while sliding down his length until their hips were touching. “Just sit back and relax. I got this.” Toru started rocking back and forth very slowly.
Izuku grabbed her hips and groaned in pleasure. “You are amazing Toru.” He said feeling something wrap around his wrist. Izuku took the hint and slid a hand down and used his thumb to tease her swollen clit. “Sing for me Toru.”
Toru let out a loud moan as jolts of pleasure shot up her spin from having her clit played with while riding Izuku. “Gods!” She said looking down at Izuku. “Please keep doing that! It feels amazing!” She threw her head back after several more jolts shot through her and helped build up her next orgasm. Toru started bouncing up and down on Izuku cock and cute whimpers noises. Almost 10 minutes later Toru's skin turned a bright pinkish purple. “CLOSE! DON’T STOP!” Toru was digging her nails into his stomach.
“Same here Toru!” Izuku grunted as he reached around to touch her lower back just above her tail and found another sensitive spot for her.
Both Toru and Izuku were picking up speed as they raced to the finish. When they finally came, they both let out a loud shout of pleasure before collapsing to the bed.
Toru was panting on Izuku’s chest as his softened cock and condom slid out of her. “That. Was. Awesome.” She said panting after each word.
Izuku nodded his head and pressed a kiss to her temple. “I completely agree with my Queen.” He said running through her sweat soaked hair. “How are you feeling?”
“Tired and Sore.” Toru replied, placing a kiss on his chest. “But in a good way.”
Izuku let out a sigh and pulled her closer to him. “Good.” He said before letting out a chuckle. WE need a shower and to change the bed sheets.”
“5 more minutes.” Toru replied, shifting to sniggle into Izuku’s left side. “I think I will get the feeling back in my legs by then.”
“Deal.” Izuku said, lifting her face up enough so he could kiss Toru on the lips.
The pair laid there longer than 5 minutes and Izuku carried Toru to the shower and let her soak under the hot water as he cleaned up the bed and remade it before joining her in the shower. They slowly washed one another and Toru loved every minute of it. After they got dried off, Izuku carried Toru to their bed and set her in the middle before crawling in bed beside her. “I love you Toru.” He said pulling the comforter over their naked bodies.
“I love you too Izuku.” Toru replied, pressing her body against Izuku’s for warmth.
The pair drifted off to sleep smiling and holding one another close.
Izuku stirred when he heard his bedroom door open in the middle of the night and he lifted his head up enough to see Mei in a tank top and shorts slip into the room before locking the door again. “Mei?” Izuku asked softly before looking over to see Toru starting to stir on his shoulder. “What are you doing here?”
Mei smirked at him before she started shimmying out of her clothes. “I need you Zuzu.” She said, pulling off her panties and started to crawl onto the bed. “I need you inside me.”
“Oh?” Toru said, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. “Guess I get a free show.” She teased kissing the side of Izuku's neck. “Let her have some fun Izuku~.”
Izuku swallowed as Mei pulled back the blanket and climbed onto the bed and straddled Izuku’s waist. “Mei, Toru.” He whimpered as Mei started to grind her wet pussy against Izuku's hard cock and Toru nibbled on Izuku's ear and neck.
“Glad to see how hard you are for me.” Mei said with a smirk as she reached down to grip Izuku’s shaft. “I have been dreaming about this since my birthday.” She lined up his cock with her drenched pussy and slowly slid down his length until her ass rested on his thighs. “Oh god.”
Toru looked up at Mei and admired the tech girl's large breasts. “Mei,” Toru called out, sitting up a bit licking her lips. “Are you willing to try something new?”
“Mei tilted her head sideways in curiosity. “What did you have in mind?” She asked, letting out a moan as she felt Izuku twitch inside her.
Toru leaned closer to the tech girl and planted a kiss on Mei’s lips and groped one of her breasts.
“That is incredibly hot.” Izuku murmured out, getting harder at the sight in front of him.
Mei returned the kiss and grabbed Toru's ass with one hand and placed the other on Izuku's abs to keep her balance while she started to rock back and forth. “I liked that.” Mei said, licking her lips. “I can get used to kissing you Toru.”
Toru pulled back, smirking. “That was amazing.” She said shifting around the bed to press her smaller chest against Mei back and then wrapped her arms around the tech girl. Toru winked at Izuku before bringing one arm to fondle one of Mei’s breasts and slipping the other down to tease Mei clit.
“Oh God!’ Mei cried out as she picked up the pace. “Please don't stop Toru!” With both Izuku and Toru touching her, Mei knew she would not be able to last long.
Izuku started teasing the other breast with his fingers and fondled Mei’s ass with the other. “Let us take care of you Mei.” Izuku said in a low rumble. “Cum for us Mei.”
Mei’s moaning was growing louder as Izuku and Toru teased and caressed her body. “So close.” She whined as she felt Izuku pinched a nipple at the same time Toru picked up the pace on teasing her clit. “More!”
Toru started kissing and nipping the side of Mei’s neck making sure to leave her mark. All of this stimulation sent Mei over the edge and she came hard, soaking Izuku's waist and Toru's hand.
“So warm.” Mei said with a sigh as she felt Izuku cum inside her.
Toru brought her hand up and licked Mei and Izuku’s fluids off her fingers. “Tasty.” She said, nipping Mei’s ear. “Do you want more?”
“Yes!’ Mei said feeling like her pussy was craving more Izuku cum. “Please. “I need more.”
Izuku looked at Toru. “I take it you have an idea?” He asked, feeling Mei get even wetter as gave her nipple a pinch.
“Oh, I have a good one.” Toru told both of them with a Cheshire grin.
Izuku pounded Mei from behind with his hands gripping her hips while thrusting deep into her pussy. Toru was laying on her back legs wide apart as Mei's face was buried into Toru's soaked snatch. Moaning from both girls told Izuku they were having a good time as Izuku thrusted deeper and harder.
Toru was gripping the sheets as Mei ate her out with such vigor and attention to her sensitive spots. “THERE MEI!” Toru cried out as she came again from Mei’s tongue. “PLEASE DON’T STOP!!” Her tail was writhed alongside her as pleasure clouded her mind.
Izuku smiled as he gave Mei’s ass a light slap. “Tease her tail Mei.” Izuku said with a smirk. “It will make her cum harder.”
“IZUKU!” Toru squealed at Mei’s hand, ran along her tail and sent Toru over the edge when Mei reached the tip. “I LOVE YOU BOTH!”
Izuku grunted as he was reaching his limit. “I’m really close girl’s.” He said, trying to hold off a bit longer.
“WRECK HER IZUKU!” Toru cried out as she arched her back and screamed. “COMING!!”
Izuku followed shortly after and Mei, muffled cries joined her lovers in ecstasy.
Izuku fell to the bed beside Toru and Mei pushed up from Toru’s pussy and crawled up to rest her head on right shoulder. The trio panted together on the bed before Izuku wrapped his arms around them both. “Well,” Izuku said, kissing both of them on the temple. “That was a lot of fun.”
“Agreed.” Toru said, glancing over at Mei. “I can believe you didn’t want him to wear a condom.”
Mei shrugged. “I’m on the pill.” She replied nuzzling into Izuku’s neck. “Besides, I like feeling his cum inside me.”
“I bet.” Toru replied, nuzzling into Izuku’s other side. “Did you have fun Mei?”
“Loads.” Mei replied by blowing Toru a kiss. “Want to do that again in my room sometime?”
“Sounds good to me.” Toru replied letting out a yawn before pulling a blanket over the trio.
Izuku let out a sigh. “We'll take a shower in the morning.” He said, closing his eyes. “Well talk about how you got in my room then.”
Mei shrugged. “I picked the lock.” She said sleepily.
Toru giggled as she closed her eyes. “Nice.”
Izuku just let out a small chuckle before pulling his girlfriend’s closer. “I love you both.” He said softly.
“Love you too Izuku/ Love you too Zuzu.” Toru and Mei replied at the same time before they drifted off to sleep.
Izuku smiled brightly as sleep finally took him.
The next morning, Izuku, Toru and Mei went off to his bathroom to shower and ended up getting another round each before they got cleaned up and headed down to join the rest of their class for breakfast. The rest of his girlfriends had picked up on their smiles and would later question the trio for details.
Monday morning was business as usual for President Ahmya Tanaka of the HSPC. She had been rounding up her biggest supporters for a big publicity push. So Far Endeavor and Nighteye were going to be her two center pieces with Hawks when he returned from Medical leave. She had tried to dig into why Hawks was out on medical, but Nero had stymied her every time.
President Tanaka could feel the change in the Commission with Fugaku being arrested and his transgression being picked over crime by crime. Despite their less than hospitable parting, Nezu had been true to his word and shared everything with her. According to the report she was reading, only 43% of the files had been gone through and the current list of people involved and their crimes were 70 pages long at this point.
Tanaka had been doing her best to find what she needed to get Nero arrested as well, but that man was very elusive. Right now, he had the sympathy of his son being kidnapped and Nero was seriously injured in trying to save him. She knew there was more to the story than what the man reported, but until she finished cleaning house, Nero would have to be a low priority.
After the Sports Festival, she planned on unleashing her complaint for the Commission and try to get the public to turn against SPD and UA. Nezu and Izuku had rejected her offer and now she needed to make new plans that would ruin them and force them to be shut down. Soon, she would call for a meeting of the Top 10 and give them a change in joining her plans or be replaced by someone that is loyal to Tanaka and the Commission.
“How is our recruitment drive going to replace the staff that has been arrested?” Tanaka asked, rubbing her face with her free hand. She closed the folder with all of Fugaku and his lackey's crimes and looked around the table to see 4 open seats. “We need new blood to keep the Commission from collapsing.”
“Not good Ma’am.” One of the members said slowly. “Our applicants are down 30% and talking with the recruiting department, it's looking like it’s going to drop another 15 % minimum.”
Tanaka's jaw dropped in surprise. “What?” She said leaning closer to the table. “We normally have thousands of applicants and have a waiting list for people wanting to join us.”
“That was before SPD was announced.” The man replied, sliding the folder in front of her. “Since then, all of the usual applicants have applied and are currently hiring more each day.” The man leaned back in his chair. “There is also a rumor that has been floating around Musutafu.”
“What rumor?” Tanaka asked, feeling a pit forming in her stomach.
The man let out a deep sigh. “The government in Musutafu and the rest of the Shizuoka Prefecture are discussing replacing local officers with SPD Officers.” He said, watching the shocked cross the faces of the other members at the table. “Nezu has been loaning them out the area while SPD is getting set up and the public loves them. They also are getting credited with capturing Fugaku.”
Tanaka took a deep breath and forced herself not to scream in frustration. “Light fire under recruiting. I want those numbers back up ASAP. No excuses.” She told the room and stood up and started pacing the room. “We need to replace our numbers quickly and hit the ground running to bring us back to the top.”
The room started clapping and voicing the agreements to the cause.
Tanaka was basking in the approval when someone ran into the office with a panicked look on their faces.
“Madam President! You need to turn on the TV now!” The woman said, grabbing the remote and turning the TV on. “Scorpina is broadcasting live!”
“Track it.” Tanaka said, snapping her fingers. “We need to find her before SPD does.”
“Hello Japan.”
“Hello Japan.” Scorpina said, giving the camera a playful smile. “You may remember from my attack on the USJ. I wanted to show you how ineffective your Heroes are.” She took a step back from the camera to reveal two toad-like monsters growling at the camera. “These are the Terror Toads. I can say from personal experience is that they do not play around.” Scorpina snapped her fingers as Cogs and Putties appeared around her. “I am going to hit you Heroes where it will hurt the most.” She gestured to something behind the cameraman. When the camera spun around showing a building with a large sign in front of it.
Isamu Academy High School
“Oh god.” Tanaka muttered. “Get Heroes there now!”
The Room went into panic mode as phone calls were made.
Habuko Mongoose was bored out of her mind as the teacher was droning on about history from 2 hundred years ago. She had been doodling in her notebook for the last 20 minutes. She had studied ahead and was not regretting it. Habuko was hoping to hear from Tsu about meeting up again. They talked two or 3 times a week and had gotten to know Fumi and Kinoko as well.
“So bored.” She muttered before closing her eyes wanting to take a nap. The room was warm and her teacher talking into a monotone voice, she was just about to drift off to sleep when the alarms started going off.
“Students, this is not a drill! Head to the shelters.” The teacher snapped at his students. “GO!”
BOOM BOOM BOOM
Habuko heard screaming coming from another part of the school and ran away from her class to the sound of screaming students.
As she rounded a corner, Habuko spotted a group of putties pulling a several students away. “Get away from them!” She cried out before rushing forward to land several kicks and punches that sent the putties to the ground.
“Run!” Habuko told the students as she made her way deeper into the crowd. She wasn’t the strongest or the fastest, but she was able to help several of them escape. She used her quirk Paralysis on several of the creatures to let more students escape. “We need to get to the shelter! Run!”
“Hahahahahahaha.” A menacing laugh came from behind Habuko. “Nice try, girly, but I can’t let you escape.”
Habuko turned around and saw a big green and yellow toad-monster standing in the way. His head had two large black horns coming off its head and two rows of sharp teeth. On its belly was the image of two people's faces that looked to be tattooed on. “I’ll hold him off. RUN!” She barked out before letting out a menacing hiss and charging at the monster. She dodged it’s don’t and managed to get in close and landed several l jabs into its stomach, but all the toad did was laugh.
“Not good enough girlie.” Terror Toad mocked as he swiped for her face with his clawed hands.
Habuko ducked under them and jumped back. “I won’t go down without a fight.” She said defiantly and dropped into her fighting stance that had been passed down by her ancestors. Habuko was so focused on the fight that she didn’t notice that she was glowing green and gold. Habuko charged forward again and landed an open hand strike at his stomach and it made the monster stumble back and spark rain from the monster.
“Oh, you’re a dangerous one.” Terror Toad growled before he suddenly relaxed and started laughing. “I should tell you that I’m not alone here.”
“What?” Habuko asked a moment before a long pink tongue wrapped around her waist and started to pull her backwards. “NO!” She cried out as she looked back to see an identical monster pulling her in towards its open mouth. She fought hard, but the tongue wouldn’t budge. ‘Tsu, Fumi, Kinoko. I’m sorry.’ She thought to herself a moment before the tongue jerked her towards it mouth and everything went black.
“Hehehehe.” Terror Toad #2 laughed as it rubbed its enormous belly as an image of his latest prey appeared. “Time to find a few more morsels.”
“Save some for me!” Terror Toad #1 said with a laugh before heading down the hallway.
President Tanaka watched as the school was attacked as the room was busy with phone calls and updates. “Where are the Heroes!” She demanded as the school started to burn.
“Converging on the school now, but the ETA is 15 minutes Ma’am.” One of them called out before yelling at someone on the phone.
“This is taking too long!” Tanaka bellowed to the room as stalked around the room. “We need to get help there now!”
“Dear god.” One of the techs uttered before looking at the President. “I-Its been on a delay Ma’am.”
“How long.” Tanaka asked as she was starting to feel sick.
The tech shuddered before answering. “The stream is running on a 10-minute delay.” They gestured to the scene. “What we are watching already happened.”
“Gods.” Tanaka uttered before looking at her security detail. “I want to be on the road in the next 10 minutes. Get me there.”
“Ma’am.” One of the guards replied and pulled out his phone.
Tanaka knew this was going to be a cluster fuck of epic proportions. She needed a way to salvage this before the press could use it against her.
Just prior to the attack on Isamu Academy High School
Izuku had just finished his lesson with Nezu when a knock came to the door. “Looks like they made it.” He said looking at the principal.
“Let’s have them join us then.” Nezu said, tapping a button on the desk. “Welcome ladies.”
Miruko, Mt. Lady, and Midnight walked into the office.
“Ryukyu sends her apologies, but she is out on a job with Gang Orca and Sirius.” Miruko said, resting her hands on her hips. “She hoped to be done by this afternoon.”
“Understandable.” Nezu said, nodding his head. “I sent the request to have you, Ryukyu, and Mt. Lady, join us here today so you could receive something special.” He looked over at his student. “If you would Izuku.”
“Of course, sir.” Izuku replied with a big smile. He stood up and reached into the desk to pull out three items. “We wanted to give you these and to make it official.” He handed an SPD badge and credentials to Miruko and Mt. Lady. “I have Ryukyu’s here as well.”
Midnight smiled brightly at her sisters. “I’ve had mine for a while now and I wanted to be here when you got yours.” She gave them a thumbs up. “Welcome to SPD.”
Mt. Lady squealed with delight as she accepted her badge and creds. “THANK YOU!’ She shouted before almost tackling her brother to the ground.
“You are very welcome.” Izuku replied with a laugh. “This was long overdue.”
Miruko ran her fingers over the badge and pulled Izuku into a hug. “Thanks kiddo.”
“Family hug!” Midnight said before pulling Izuku, Miruko, and Mt. Lady into a hug.
Izuku laughed but embraced the hug until the end and when the hug ended, he held out Ryukyu badge and credentials. “Do you mind passing these on to Ryukyu when you see her?”
“Sure.” Miruko said taking both items from Izuku and slipping them into a pouch on her belt. “I’ll see her this afternoon when I join her and Nejire on patrol.”
“Prefect.” Izuku replied, looking back at Nezu. “We’ll need to get them uniform’s for SPD functions.”
Nezu nodded his head in agreement. “We can get them on the schedule for measurements. He said looking at the clock on the wall. “You have a few minutes before your next class.”
“Ok, maybe we can-.” Izuku was cut off by a familiar sound.
Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep
“What’s going on DECA? Alpha?” Izuku asked as the room went silent.
“Scorpina is attacking Isamu Academy High School!” Alpha-5 said in a distressed voice. “The school is being attacked by putties, Cogs, and two Terror Toad Monsters!”
Izuku looked over at Izuku TV to see images of the attack being broadcast to it. “We need to respond now.” Izuku looked at his sister. “We will be the first on scene. We contain Scorpina and her minions. DECA send a call out. This will be all hands-on deck. Contact the Wild, Wild, Pussycats and tell them this will be a rescue operation.
“Affirmative.” DECA chimed in. “I will assist Alpha in organizing the Rangers.
Miruko let out a growl and punched her fist into her hand. “Let’s send that bitch packing.”
“What are we waiting for?” Mt. Lady asked reading her Morpher.
Midnight did the same and clicked the button to open her Morpher Key. “Time to teach them what happens when they misbehave.”
Izuku nodded his head and readied his Morpher. “It’s Morphing Time! Dragonzord!”
“ Tigerzord!” Miruko called out.
“Zeo Ranger 5 Red!” Mt. Lady Called out.
“Dino Thunder, Power up! Ha!” Midnight called out.
Scorpina smiled at the chaos. She loved to hear the screams of the students and explosions from her monster's attacks. “Stupid humans. Always thinking you are smarter than everyone else.” She said looking at the camera one of the Cog’s were holding. “Nothing will stop my plans.” She waved her hand and the camera disappeared.
“Mistress.” One of the Terror Toads said while waddling up to Scorpina. “I captured 10 of the students. I can’t hold it any more.” The monster patted his belly with pride.
Scorpina nodded her head. “Your brother is still hunting in the school. Drop them off in the dungeon and return at once to capture as many as possible.”
“At once Mistress.” The monster replied and vanished.
“This is going better than I expected.” Scorpina mused while walking towards the school. “Guess the doctor will get his subjects after all.” She had been a bit skeptical about doing this favor for the Doctor, but it was keeping her entertained.
Terror Toad reappeared and let out a sigh. “Now to get a few more students.” He muttered before waddling towards the building.
“Stop in the name of the law!” A man in a red and blue jumpsuit yelled pointing a finger at Scorpina. “I am the Guardian!” The man took a ridiculous pose. “I shall stop you, villain.”
“You must be joking.” Scorpina said with a dismissive wave of his hand. “Leave before I get bored, human.”
The Guardian ran forward. “Justice Punch!” He called out punching Scorpina in the face. “My Quirk is called Power Punch and it lets me do devastating attacks with my fists!” The man started to laugh at his apparent victory. “Surrender-.” The man was cut off when he was back handed into a wall hard by Scorpina.
“Pathetic.” Scorpina spat at the crumpled form on the ground before walking away. She watched several colors of light arriving near her monster. “That was quick.”
Terror Toad was just about to reenter the building when white and gold boot connected to his face and sent him flying into the ground. “ Argh.” The monster bellowed. “What the? Power Rangers!”
Miruko landed in a superhero pose and rose to her feet. “Where do you think you are going tubby?” She taunted as she drew Saba from her belt. “How you pick on someone your own size.”
Izuku landed beside Miruko and tapped his helmet. “DECA, we have a possible mass casualty incident, advise Recovery Girl of the situation and have a Medical on standby.” He looked at the smoke rising from the school. “Have responding Rangers start Search and Rescue Operations.”
“Affirmative Izuku.”
Midnight drew her Brachio Staff and shook her head. “That thing is nasty looking.” She remarked, glancing at the monster.
“Agreed.” Mt. Lady agreed, summoning her Power Sword. “Let’s squash this toad.”
Midnight tapped a button on her staff and made a giant circle with the in front of her. “Earth Sphere!’ She called out before sending her attack at the monster. It hit home and sent the monster flying backwards.
“That tears it!’ Terror Toad bellowed after scrambling back to his feet. He opened his mouth to launch several energy bombs at the Rangers.
“Scatter!” Mt. Lady called out as the team dived to avoid his attacks. My. Lady rolled back to her feet and charged up her sword and jumped at the monster. “Zeo Red Slash!”
Terror Toad managed to bring up his arms to block the attack but slide back a few feet. “Ha pathetic.”
Mt. Lady dropped down and spun her attack at his stomach and landed her attack. “Gotcha!”
“Argh.” Terror Toad bellowed as he stumbled back and glared at the Rangers. “I’ll destroy you for that lucky shot.”
Izuku was about to attack when another explosion went off and screams could be heard from the school. “Midnight, Mt. Lady, head over to help the students, Miruko and I will keep the Monster busy.”
“Roger that.” Midnight replied, starting to move towards the new explosion.
Mt. Lady slowly nodded her head before moving behind Midnight. “Stay safe you two.”
Izuku didn’t take his eyes off the monster as he drew his dragon dagger in a reverse grip. “Ready Miruko?” Izuku asked, shifting into his fighting stance.
Miruko let out a short laugh. “I was born ready.” She said preparing to jump. “I’ll hit em high.”
“And I’ll hit em low.” Izuku finished.
“Not going to be that easy Rangers!” Terror Toad growled out. He started jumping in place and jumped high into the air.
“Wrong move.” Miruko said crouching down and jumped into the air “White Luna Arc!” She cried out as she spun in an overhead circle to connect the heel of her boot with the monster's head and sent it screaming to the ground.
Terror Toad landed hard against the ground and grunted as he got back to his feet. “No fair.” He grumbled jabbing a finger at the Rangers. “I’m supposed to jump around and you lot are supposed to lose.”
“Not today Toady.” Izuku said moving forward to go on the offensive. He got off a quick kick before having to dodge the monster's claws. Izuku used his momentum to spin back to land several quick dagger strikes.
Terror Toad let out a snarl and sent a series of beams from his horns.
Izuku and Miruko managed to avoid most of the beams, but the toad got a few lucky shots. Send them to the ground showered in sparks.
“Hopefully Midnight and Mt. Lady are having better luck than us.” Izuku said, getting back to his feet.
Miruko got back to her feet and rolled her shoulders before shifting her stance. “I doubt it.”
Mt. Lady and Midnight rushed through the school and directed the students away from the battle going on out in front of the school. Mt. Lady had spotted a gym that was big enough to hold a lot of people and started leading them away from danger. As they made it down a hallway a group of students were corralled by a group of Putties.
“Get down!” Midnight called out as she took the right side of the hall and started swinging her Brachio Staff the moment the students dropped to the floor. After several quick slashes the creatures dropped to the ground.
Mt. Lady had taken the left side and drew her Zeo Blaster in her off hand and worked through her group of putties with relative ease. “Are you kids ok?” she asked when the last putty had dropped to the ground.
“Y-Yeah.” One of the students muttered getting back to their feet. “There is a monster up ahead. We heard a lot of screaming.
“Head to the Gym that way.” Midnight pointed with her free hand. “We have cleared the school to that point and back-up is on the way.” She tilted her helmet in the direction of the gym. “Wait until one of us comes and get you.”
“O-Ok.” The student replied following the crowd in a hurry to get to the gym. “We just got saved by Power Rangers!’
Mt. Lady let out a small chuckle before hearing more screaming coming from another hallway. “I’d say we need to go that way next.”
“Agreed.” Midnight said, tapping her helmet. “Alpha, DECA, we are directing students to a gym near our location. We have secured the school this far. Have some Rangers keep guard in case the monsters tried to double back on us.
“Copy that Midnight.” Alpha-5 answered excitedly. “First group of Rangers in a minute out.”
“Good.” Mt. Lady said, starting down the next hallway in a full run.
“Stop Moving!” The Terror Toad bellowed and missed his target again.
“Make us!” Miruko taunted the monsters as she jumped away to avoid another attack.
Izuku and Miruko were on the offensive and the monster was starting to slow down from repeated attacks from the duo. Terror Toad had tried to devour both of them at different times, but Izuku or Miruko would damage the monster's tongue just in time.
“Let’s finish this thing off and go help Midnight and Mt. Lady.” Izuku suggested running his fingers over the length of his Dragon Dagger and the blade started to glow a bright green.
“I’m game.” Miruko replied, looking at her sentient sword. “How about it Saba?”
“Let’s send this monster packing.” Saba said in agreement. His blade started to glow bright white.
Miruko and Izuku jumped together and brought their weapons down in a X pattern. “Green/White Ranger Power Slash!” They cried out together. Without a word, Izuku dropped low as Miruko high for another X strike before jumping away.
“N-No!” Terror Toad bellowed as it stumbled back a few steps. “I-I won’t go out like this!” Lightning started radiating off the monster’s body before it fell forward and exploded.
“Now, we can go help clear the school.” Izuku said, looking at his sister.
Miruko nodded her head. “Sounds good kid.” She said starting to head towards the building when the sound of someone clapping stopped her. “What the?” She looked around and spotted a familiar face walking towards them. “Scorpina!”
“Well done you two.” Scorpina said in a mocking tone. “The poor thing never stood a chance.” She gave them a sad pout before she busted into a loud cackle. “You have already lost?”
“How so?” Izuku asked preparing to fight Scorpina.
Scorpina flashed him a wicked smile. “You’ll see.” She said in a mysterious tone before summoning a metal sphere in her hand. “But you need to battle my monster first!” Scorpina pulled the pin and tossed it. “Make my Monster Grow!”
The area around the destroyed monster exploded and a giant Terror Toad stood up and let out a loud laugh. “Round Two Rangers!” it said with a laugh.
“Oh joy.” Miruko said, looking over at Scorpina. “We'll deal with you later.”
Scorpina gave Miruko a mock salute and disappeared.
Izuku glanced over at his sister. “Ready for your first Megazord battle?” He asked, readying his Dragon Dagger.
“Yes!” Miruko replied, pumping her first. “Let's kick some ass!”
Izuku saw various lights teleport in behind them and spotted Momo leading a large group of them. “Momo, lead your group inside the school and start clearing the school of the remaining students. Midnight and Mt. Lady area already inside.”
“Copy that.” Momo replied with a nod of her head. “Itsuka was teleported to their location with her team. We will get to work while you deal with big and ugly.”
Izuku smiled under his helmet “Good.” He replied as Momo started directing her team into the school. “DECA, coordinate with Momo and Itsuka on their needs to get the students and teachers to safety.”
“Affirmative Izuku.”
“Alpha, Have the Zord teleporter online.” Izuku said, bringing his dagger up to his helmet.
“Zord Teleporter online and waiting for your command Izuku!” Alpha-5 replied excitedly.
“I summon the Mighty Dragonzord!” Izuku called out before playing the tune to summon his Zord.
“I need Tigerzord Power now!” Miruko called out, raising her right hand to the sky.
Midnight and Mt. Lady had hurried down several hallways freeing various students from the Putties and Cogs that had been holding them hostage.
“Jeez.” Mt. Lady grunted as she brought her sword down destroying two Cogs before performing a snap kick to a putty. “How many of these things are there?”
“Too Many.” Midnight replied pointing her Brachio Staff at a group of putties. “Brachio Staff: Fire Strike!” A spiraling beam of fire struck the group destroying them. “Much better.”
Mt. Lady sent the trapped students down the cleared corridor when she heard evil laughing coming from the hallway ahead of them. “I think we found the monster.”
“What are we waiting for then?” Midnight asked, running towards the inhuman laughter.
When they came around the corner, they spotted the toad monster slowly stalking towards the students.
“Wait, wasn’t that thing that Izuku and Miruko were fighting outside?” Mt. Lady asked, readying her sword.
“Apparently, it has a sibling.” Midnight replied sarcastically. “Let’s go!” She charged forward
“Right behind ya.” Mt. Lady said following a moment later. “Oi! Ugly! Pick on someone your own size!”
“What?” Terror Toad croaked, turning away from its prey. “Oh great. Rangers.” It scoffed and before turning back around. “Buzz off I am just about to enjoy me meal.”
“Oh no you don’t.” Midnight barked out charging to attack the monster.
Mt. Lady went wide and attacked from the opposite side.
The moment both of their weapons struck the monster, it burst into a liquid goo and fell to the floor with a wet splat.
“Uh.” Midnight said looking at Mt. Lady. “I don’t think that was supposed to happen.”
My. Lady slowly nodded her head. “That seemed a bit too easy.” She agreed moving to the students. “Come this way and we'll get you all to safety.”
“T-Thank you.’ One of the students shuddered.
Various colored lights filled the hall around Midnight and Mt Lady a moment before their backup arrived.
“Back up is here Ma’am.” Itsuka said, looking around. “How can my team help?”
Midnight pointed to another set of hallways. “Split up your team and start clearing the building. We need to start getting everyone accounted for.”
“On it.” Itsuka replied, turning back to her team. “You heard Midnight, move out! Half go with Setsuna and the other half will come with me.”
“I'll go with Setsuna.” Mt. Lady said heading in their direction. “Call me if you need back up.”
Midnight gave her a thumbs up. “I’ll back up Itsuka then.” She replied resting her Brachio staff on her shoulder. “Wonder how Izuku and Miruko are doing?”
BOOM!
Mt. Lady tilted her head slightly. “About that well.” She said before tapping her helmet. “Izuku, Miruko, You guys doing alright?”
“We are doing fine.” Izuku replied almost immediately. “We are dealing with a giant toad. Clear the school. We got this. Protect the Students and teachers.”
“Izuku, Miruko, You guys doing alright?”
Izuku landed on top of the building. “We are doing fine.” Izuku replied almost immediately. “We are dealing with a giant toad. Clear the school. We got this. Protect the Students and teachers.”
Miruko landed on top of her White Tigerzord. “I’ve been waiting for this!” She dropped down into the cockpit and stood in front of her controls panel. “Tigerzord, convert to Warrior Mode, now!” Miruko inserted Saba into the open slot on the control panel.
Izuku played a short tune and positioned the Dragonzord to stand next to the Tigerzord. “Time to squash this toad.” He said before playing another tune and sent his Zord lumbering forward and turned to smack Terror Toad with the Dragons Zords powerful tail.
“Aargh.” The Terror Toad cried out as it staggered back to its feet. “I’m not going down that easy Rangers.” He sent a series of beans from its horns.
The beams connected with both Zords and caused them to both take a step back.
“That tears it.” Miruko snarled, leading her Zord forward. “Take this and that!” The Tigerzord sent a punch to the monster's face and followed up with a kick to its legs.
“Ow!” The Terror Toad bellowed before sending its tongue to wrap around the Tigerzord. “Time to get my snack on!”
“Oh, no you don’t.” Izuku said changing tunes again. The Dragonzord sent a volley of missiles into the tongue causing the Terror Toad to release the Tigerzord. “You alright Sis?’
“I’m good thanks for the help Little brother.” Miruko replied, turning around and grabbing an orb from the shelf behind her and turned back to face her console. “Time to turn up the heat.” Miruko inserted the Orb and the tiger mouth of her Zord opened. “White Tiger Thunderbolt!” A moment later a fireball went flying into the Terror Toad and detonated.
“Tail Drill!” Izuku cried out as he played an upbeat tune. The Dragonzord’s tail started spinning and hit the Terror Toads chest. “Better quit while you're ahead toady.”
The Terror Toad growled getting back to its feet. “I will show you. ‘He turned to look at the school and charged up his horns.”
“Miruko!” Izuku called out, playing a fast tune to move his Zord.
“I see it!” Miruko cried out moving the Tigerzord to stand in front of the monster. “Coward.”
“Take this!” Terror Toad screamed as he sent a powerful blast at the school.
Both the Dragonzord and Tigerzord moved to take the full blast and shower of sparks and smoke rose from the Zords as they fell to the ground.
“You alright Miruko?’ Izuku called out clutching his Dagger tightly before playing a series of tunes to get his Zord back on its feet. “Not time to lay down on the job Buddy.”
Miruko reoriented herself and got her Tigerzord back on its feet. “Yeah.” She groaned, leveling out her Zord. “That was a dirty trick he pulled. “She pointed her Zords finger at the monster. “I want to end this now.”
“I completely agree.” Izuku said not wanting to give the monster another chance to attack the school and their fellow Rangers.
“Izuku, Miruko, there is a Zord Combination for you to finish this.” Alpha-5 informed them. “Combine the Dragonzord and the White Tiger Zord to form White Tiger Dragonzord.”
Izuku turned to look at Miruko’s Zord. “What do you say Sis?” He asked, smirking under his helmet. “Let send him out of here with a bang.
“Oh, Hell yes.” Miruko replied, punching her open hand. “Let’s do it!”
“Zords Combine!” Izuku and Miruko called out as the Dragonzord started to glow green and the Tigerzord as they started to combine. When the light faded, the new Zord looked fierce. The Dragonzord tail was attached to the Tigerzord’s left arm and on the right arm was the Dragonzord’s golden chest acting as a shield. Various parts on the Dragonzord now covered the legs, shoulder and head of the Tigerzord.
“Izuku, join me in here. It's pretty roomy now.” Miruko said, looking at the new cockpit that had appeared when their Zords combined.
“Sure thing.” Izuku replied, jumping onto the new Zord and dropped into the cockpit. It was now a mixture of the two Zords and he moved to stand next to Miruko and set his hands on the console. “How about we finish this?”
“Definitely.” Miruko replied, setting her hands on the console.
New attacks were downloaded into their mind for their new Zord combination.
(Go, Go Power Rangers OST)
“Prepare to meet you maker toad.” Izuku said moving the White Tiger Dragonzord towards the Terror Toad.
“Time to end this.” Miruko said, grabbing another Orb from the back wall and holding it over the console. “You won’t threaten anyone ever again.”
“No! Terror Toad cried sending attack after attack at the White Tiger Dragonzord, but the attacks just fizzled out against the powerful Zord. “You can’t do this to me!”
Miruko dropped the sphere into the console.
“Dragon Tiger Blast!” Miruko and Izuku cried out together as the console started glowing green and white. The White Tiger Dragonzord began to glow as the White Tiger chest cannon opened and the powerful red energy beam struck the Terror Toad and destroyed it in a shower of sparks once and for all.
“Ok, that was awesome.” Miruko said, throwing an arm around Izuku's shoulders. “That was nicely done.”
“Couldn’t have done it would out you Sis.” Izuku replied with a laugh. “Let’s get down there and help everyone out.” Izuku made his way out of the Cockpit.
“Right behind you Izuku.” Miruko replied, hopping out of the cockpit behind her little brother.
Scorpina watched from a distance at the new Zord. She was not bothered at the loss of the monster. It was a pawn. She had accomplished her goal and soon, the Rangers would learn they may have won the battle, but they lost the war so to speak. She disappeared like a mirage to see the spoils of war.
The next half hour was incredibly busy as the Ranger searched through the damaged school and was pulling injured students out of the rubble. The Wild, Wild, Pussycats, and Thirteen were leading the Search and Rescue operation as they put their students to work moving rubble or carrying the injured out to the makeshift hospital they had put together. So far SPD and the Power Rangers had been running the scene. All Might showed up and immediately went to work where he was needed.
For the most part there had not been any severe injuries amongst the teachers and staff. Cuts and bruises for the most part and a few broken bones, but it would have been a lot worse. The teachers were helping keep track of all the students that had been found so far and matched them to their files. There were currently about 40 students unaccounted for and there were several areas being cleared after the teams heard their cries for help.
Izuku had been in the Incident Command area right after he and Miruko had defeated the monster. Yui had been helping him keep track of everyone as he started dividing up his Rangers and sending them into the school. Nezu had come out with Shouta, Commander Hound Dog, Captain Nagant and Captain Hakugare as they helped keep the scene running. Local Emergency responders arrived and joined in after getting their assignments. SPD officers were keeping the press back to allow the Heroes, Rangers and responders to work.
“Lieutenant, we got another 5 students were bring out from a collapsed room, nothing serious from what we can tell.” Kirishima informed Izuku over the comms. “We are bringing them out now.”
“Copy that. Good Work Rangers.” Izuku replied as he looked over to see Yui writing down the updated count. “Keep it up guys, we are almost there.”
“This is Pixie-Bob, we are moving on to the next area, no students or teachers in our current search area.”
“Ok, move your team to the next zone and then come take a break.” Izuku said, looking over the current roster he had available. “We can rotate in another team if needed.”
“Copy that. We’ll keep you in the loop. Pixie-bob out.”
Izuku let out a deep sigh as he looked around the school. It would take some time to get it back up and running. “How is the Principal doing sir?” He asked his mentor when he spotted the heavyset man kneeling in front of his damaged school.
“Shocked and heartbroken.” Nezu replied, cupping his paws behind his back. “I have offered to help them get rebuilt and he has accepted.” Nezu gave his student a knowing smile. “Between Cementoss and Uraraka Construction, it will be back on its feet in no time.”
Izuku couldn’t suppress a smile. “Good to know sir. Maybe we will have another affiliate school.” He asked already getting a rough idea of what his mentor was planning
“Possibly.” Nezu replied slyly. “I have to say that I was not expecting Scorpina to attack another school.” He watched a group of reporters trying to get closer to the injured students get pushed back by a group of officers. “This is very troublesome.”
“I agree.” Izuku said, crossing his arms. “I feel like we are missing something.” He watched as Kirishima was carrying a student out to take them to the casualty area. “This doesn’t feel like one of Scorpina normal plans.” He thought about the whole incident and how Midnight and Mt. Lady had reported a 2 nd Terror Toad that ‘popped’ when they attacked it. “We'll need to talk to some of the students when they get a chance to process what happened.”
“I’ve got my officers getting everyone's names and addresses to be re-interviewed later.” Captain Hakugare said, resting her hands on her hips. “Was this to draw us out or was Scorpina taunting the Commission?”
“It could be both.” Commander Hound Dog replied, looking around the site. “The Commission hasn’t arrived yet and I would put money down saying that the President is already on her way down here to salvage this before the press runs with it.”
“Suckers bet.” Izuku said with a scoff. “We need to find the missing students and get a full account of their whereabouts before their parents arrive.”
“Agreed.” Nezu pulled out his phone. “I am calling in more help from the school.”
“I’ve got R.I.C out with my team helping with Search efforts.” Captain Nagant added before tapping her ear and taking a step away for a moment. “Copy that, bring them here to get checked out.” She turned back to face the group. “My team is bringing 10 students they found hiding in training area.”
“Yui what is the current count of missing?” Izuku asked.
Yui jotted down the updated count before looking at Izuku. “Down to 25 still unaccounted for.” She replied, showing him the list.
“Ok, we are still clearing the school and hopefully they are safe.” Izuku replied as moved to lean against the table in front of him. “What were you after Scorpina?” He muttered to himself before he shook his head to focus on the task at hand.
Ten minutes later, Izuku got more news from his teams.
“Lieutenant, my team just found 5 students and all have minor injuries.” Mt. Lady reported with a sigh of relief. “We are heading back to you.”
“Same here. LT.” Itsuka reported sounding breathless. “Found 5 students that had been trapped in a storage room. One serious injury.”
“Good work everyone.” Izuku replied to both of them. “Bring them up to the doctor and take a break. “I’ll rotate in another team.
“Copy that/Yes Sir.”
Izuku felt someone tap him on the shoulder and he turned to see Yui holding out a bottle of water for him. “Thanks, Yui.” He said, accepting the water and downing half before taking a breath. “That brings us to 15 still unaccounted for, right?”
“Yes.” Yui replied, opening up a bottle of water for herself. “According to DECA, we have searched 95% of the school. Nezu sent a few teams to search the last of the school property.”
Izuku nodded his head and heard the reporters starting to shout at something. “Wonder what has the vultures riled up?” He asked before seeing 3 black SUV’s pull into the staging area. “Look who finally decided to show up.”
“I think we should go and greet her.” Nezu Said walking over to stand beside Izuku.
Izuku nodded his head. “Let’s get this over with.” He replied as he and Nezu started off to greet the Commission. Yui had fallen in step behind Izuku, double checking her numbers on her clipboard. Izuku spotted the President stepping out of her SUV with her security detail escorting her to Izuku and Nezu.
“What is the status of the students and teachers?” President Tanaka commanded as she crossed her arms to glare at Nezu.
Izuku and Nezu shared a look before returning his attention to President Tanaka.
“The school has been 95% searched and we still have 15 students unaccounted for with multiple teams searching for them.” Izuku explained to the woman crossing his arms. “The students and teachers have various injuries, but nothing life threatening.”
“Good.” President Tanaka replied with a nod of her head. “I will be taking it from here.” She was about to walk past Izuku, when Shouta and Captain Hakugare blocked her path. “Excuse me, but my staff and I will be taking over Command of this incident.”
“Let us do the leg work and you just walk in to take the credit.” Captain Nagant said, shaking her head. “I expected more from you, but I can see you are using the playbook from your predecessor.”
“Watch your tone with my Nagant.” President Tanaka snapped. “You may have been pardoned, but I won’t hesitate to expose your past to the public.”
“Do it.” Captain Nagant replied with a smirk. “All that will do is air your dirty laundry along with mine.”
Izuku cleared his throat. “SPD has jurisdiction over this operation.” He gestured to the SPD officers and Rangers all over the area. “You had your chance to get her sooner and take command before we established Command. You have other problems, President Tanaka.”
“What problem?” President Tanaka asked, trying not to grit her teeth as she noticed the press was focusing on their interaction very intensely.
Izuku gave her a sad expression before pointing to a black body bag. “The only Hero that had responded was The Guardian. He tried to fight Scorpina and it cost him his life.”
“We will do the notifications.” President Tanaka said, looking at the bag. “He should have waited for back up before approaching a threat like Scorpina.” She snapped her fingers and looked at one of her details. “Have someone come and get the body.”
Izuku had to bite his tongue to keep from shouting at President Tanaka. He was about to say something when he felt someone tap him on the shoulder. “Yes?’ He asked Yui.
“Ibara just called in. her team searched the last area and only found 5 students.” Yui explained, hugging the clipboard to her chest. “We still have ten students missing.”
“That was what she was after.” Izuku muttered with a sigh. “We need to make a list of the missing students. Give DECA a call to help double check our findings.”
“On it Boss.” Yui said before stepping away to start talking with DECA.
Nezu ambled over to his student. “So, we find out what she was really after.” He said letting out a tired sigh. “I will call the Principals of the other Hero schools and put them on alert.” He looked over to see President Tanaka was talking to one of her details. “I shall inform Tanaka. You handle the rest of the Operation.
“On it sir.” Izuku replied walking back to talk with Yui to go over the list together. In the back of his mind, he was worried about what Scorpina was going to do with those students.
Scorpina arrived back at her dungeons to see 10 students laying on the floor unconscious. "Not bad, for the worthless pawn.” She muttered to herself as she vanished and reappeared inside the cell and began to inspect her captives. Of the 10, 6 were boys both with and without mutations. The remaining 4 were girls with a similar diversity as the boys. Scorpina got to work and collared all of them before exiting the cell. She summoned a putty. "Fetch Nieto for me." She ordered her minion before looking back at her captives. "Hopefully they last a while."
Nieto resisted the urge to pull at his collar again. Since he had woken up, his life had been nothing but training and being forced to follow the orders of his Mistress Scorpina. He had tried to resist at first, but multiple intense shocks during his training had forced him to adapt. He was currently wearing a black pants and heavy boots that he was still getting used to. He wore a black long sleeve shirt with a dark blue vest. Nieto vowed to escape and make his father pay for his betrayal. He had to play the long game to earn his freedom. When he arrived at the dungeon he spotted Scorpina waiting for him with her back to the stairs.
"Yes Mistress?" Neito asked, kneeling out of habit. He kept his eyes on the floor to avoid being punished.
"I have a new job for you in your spare time Nieto." Scorpina said, turning around to face her servant. "You need to keep these humans alive for the Good doctor. You will make sure they are fed and watered. If anyone tries to lay a hand on them. Except for myself or Dr. Giraki, you will stop or kill them. Understand?"
Nieto nodded his head. "I understand Mistress." He replied automatically. "I will do as you requested."
Scorpina walked over and patted him on the shoulder. "Good boy.” She said in a condescending tone. "Now, I will be In my quarters if you need me."
Nieto suppressed a sneer at the retreating form of Scorpina. He got to work ordering a few Cogs to get food and water for the prisoners before he sat down on the floor to wait for them to wake up.
Habuko groaned as she rolled onto her back and forced herself to sit up. “Where am I?’ She asked aloud before looking around to see she was in a cell. “This can’t be good.”
“It's not.” Neito said, walking into her line of sight. “Don’t try to take the collar off or it will shock you.”
“You!” Habuko snarled, jumping to her feet. “Did you bring me here because I made fun of you?”
Neito shook his head. “No.” He gave her a tired look before showing her his own collar. “We are both prisoners here.” He looked around before taking a step closer to the bars. “She likes to shock people who disobey her. Keep your head down if you can.”
Habuko studied him for a minute before nodding her head. “How long have you been here?” She asked looking at her classmates to see they were still unconscious.
"A while." Neito said before leaning back against the wall. He lowered his eyes to the ground.
Habuko went over to look after her classmates. She just hoped and prayed that they would be rescued soon.
Scorpina watched Neito from the shadows before walking away and smiled at her successful attack on the school. "Your Move Rangers." She said before vanishing and appearing in front of Finster. "How is he doing?"
"Quite well for a human." Finstare repleid adjusting the lines going into the container. "He will be quite useful when we need a distraction."
Scorpina nodded her head and placed a hand on the glass. "I told you I would help make you great Twice." She mused before turning awy to look at Finster. "Use him until his body fails, then you can experiment on him."
"Thank you my Emperess." Finster repleid with an evil laugh.
Scorpina gave him a wicked smile. "He is just a human." She repleid with a dismissive wave of her hand. "Now, prepare for the next stage of our plans. You have 2 and half weeks."
"I will have everything ready by then." Finster said before walking off to get back to work.
Scorpina smile turned feral as she would make all of Japan shake in fear after what she planned next. For now she would be patient. savor her victory. "Soon." She told herself looking at apicture on the wall. "Soon. I will have you back."
In Honor of Jason David Frank.
You will be missed.

Tommy let out a tired breath as looked over to see his wife sleeping in the chair next to his hospital bed. It had been over 10 years since he sent the Master Morpher away and started living his life. He had traveled around the world twice with Kat and even went back to teaching High School off and on. Even got to see his son J.J marry Anita in a beautiful ceremony. He had even been blessed with 3 grandchildren that always wanted to hear stories of his days as a Power Ranger.
In the last few months, Tommy's health had started to decline. A mixture of his time as a Ranger and old age had finally caught up to him. He had traveled with Kat while he could handle it and made sure to spend his remaining time with his family.
"Dad?" A voice called out from the door to his hospital room.
"Come in son." Tommy said with a tired smile. "Where are Anara and the kids?"
"They were on a trip with Anara's parents." J.J answered, giving his dad a hug. "How are you feeling?"
"Tired." Tommy replied honestly. "I don't think I'm coming home this time son."
J.J shook his head. "Don't talk like that Dad." He said as his voice cracked slightly. "You have a few years left with all of us."
"I've had a good run J.J." Tommy said, patting his son weakly on the face. "I've been very blessed with my family and friends."
"You need to rest dear." Kat said, reaching over to hold her husband's hand. "You need to come home with me." She suppressed a sob as tears ran down her face.
"I can hear the angels calling me." Tommy said, using the last of his strength to kiss Kat's hand. "I love you Kat."
"I love you too Tommy." Kat stood up to kiss her husband on the lips.
"J.J." Tommy rasped as his strength was starting to fade. "I'm proud of the man you became. Look after your Mom for me." He gripped his son's shoulder with a trembling hand. “I love you son.”
"I-I promise Dad." J.J choked out as he started crying. “I love you too Dad.”
"Just gonna rest my-." Tommy's head slowly rolled to the side as the alarms started going off. The staff walked in and turned off the alarms and pronounced that Tommy Oliver had passed away.
Kat and J.J held one another as they mourned his passing. They would tell the rest of the Rangers later. For now, Mother and son just held one another.
Later on, when Tommy's passing was announced, Rangers all over the universe took a moment of silence out of respect for the Legendary Ranger.
Tommy took a deep breath as he looked around to see he was in a long hallway. He slowly made his way to the only visible door. He opened it to find a bright light and stepped through.
"Welcome Tommy."
He looked towards the voice to see several of the Morphing Masters standing in front of him. "Where am I?" He asked looking down to see he looked like he did in his 20's.
"A pit stop if you want to call it that." The Green Morphing Master said with a light laugh. "We wanted to show you your successor." They pointed to a sphere with images projected on it.
Tommy moved closer to see a young boy with green hair be chosen to wield his Morpher. "Looks like it picked the right person."
"Indeed." The Green Morphing Master replied. "He will lead his world to a new age of peace. Thanks to you."
"What happens to me now?" Tommy asked, looking around the room at the other Masters. "A new mission?"
"No." The Red Morphing Master said with a shake of his head. "You will move on to a well-earned rest. This generation has got it from here Tommy."
Tommy nodded his head and bit his lip for a moment. "Was I a good Ranger?" He thought back to all of his battles he had fought and the mistakes he made over the years.
"No." The Green Morphing Master said, placing a hand on Tommy's shoulder. "You were the best."
Tommy smiled as he was led away from the globe showing his successor. "May the Power protect you Izuku." He walked into a brightly lit room and spotted a familiar face
"Hey Trini."
Trini gave him a big smile. "Hey Tommy." She replied, gesturing to an empty couch. "I want to hear about your family."
Tommy smiled back. "Sounds good to me."

The Sports Festival begins.
Notes:
Hello Everyone,
I am so sorry for the long delay from my last post, but my personal life had been more than a little chaotic. Since my last post, my daughter had been hospitalized twice for Respiratory Distress and has taken a lot of my time. Thankfully she is home now, but requires most of my focus.
She is my priority before any of my stories.
With her hospitalizations, I have been running low on motivation for my main stories and worked with some friends to work on different things to cope.
She is doing better which has helped me get back to writing my Watches and Main chapters.Again, bear with me as I try to find my balance and continue to writes these stories.
Please enjoy these chapters.

Chapter Text
The past two weeks had been long for Izuku as he looked over the files on the coffee table in his apartment. He had just got his daughters to bed a half hour ago and he told his girlfriend he needed to finish up a few things before joining them in bed.
Izuku stared at the file at the top of that stack and slowly reached down to pick it up. It was the list of missing students from the attack on Isamu Academy High School. He had gotten into a habit of looking over the file every night since the attack.
It had taken several hours after the attack to find out who was actually missing. While Midnight and Mt. Lady interviewed several of the students, there were several reports of a frog monster ‘eating’ students after turning them into spheres. After studying the Ranger archives DECA and Alpha-5, Nezu and Izuku confirmed that Scorpina had taken the missing students.
The press had been raking the Commission over the coals after it was discovered via an anonymous source that they had made the school a low priority for heroes to patrol the area and keep its students safe. President Tanaka tried to appease the public by stating it was simple oversight and that her administration was looking into it.
The public was not having it and protestors had arrived outside their main office.
SPD was being praised for its quick response to battle Scorpina and having Rescue Operation onsite before the Commission could respond. Nezu had offered the President of the damaged school assistance in rebuilding and improving their security systems to keep their students safe after the school reopened.
Needless to say, the tension between the Commission and SPD was growing as the press and public were starting to move their support away from HPSC.
Endeavor and Nighteye had made several public announcements about the dangers of SPD and gave the Commission high praises. The PR campaign had not been as successful as they had hoped and their support and applicants were still dropping.
Izuku was not the only one to take the loss of the students from hard. He was approached by Tsu the day after the list was released. He knew it was coming after having a conversation with Fumikage.
“Izuku. Kero.” Tsu said, looking at Izuku with tired eyes. “Are you sending another team out to search for the missing students?” Her normally stoic face had been replaced by one of worry.
Izuku nodded his head. “I heard from Fumikage that one of the girls on the list was a friend of yours.” He said, giving Tsu a sympathetic look. “Her name was Habuko right?” Izuku had made sure to know all the names of the missing students.
“Yes.” Tsu replied, nodding her head slowly. “I want to be on any team that is searching for them. Kero.” She gave Izuku a very determined look. “I want to help them bring her home safe.”
Izuku gave her a small smile. “Mr. Aizawa and his team are leading the search for the missing students along with SPD.” He said pulling out a pen and paper before writing down a number. “Here. I will send him a message that you are going to give him a call.” He handed the slip of paper to Tsu. “I can’t promise that he will take you out in the field to help with the search, but you can still ask.” Izuku placed a hand on the frog girl's shoulder. “We will bring them home Tsu.”
“Thank you Izuku.” Tsu replied, giving him a quick hug before heading off to rejoin Fumikage and Kinoko. “I'll talk to you again soon. Kero.”
Izuku gave her a small wave before heading over to rejoin his girlfriends and was pulled into a kiss by Setsuna.
“That was nice of you.” Setsuna said, giving him a toothy smile.
Izuku pressed a kiss to her nose. “It was the least I could do.” He said letting out a sigh. “I should have realized Scorpina was planning something.” He had blamed himself for not figuring out her plans sooner.
Setsuna narrowed her eyes and tapped her boyfriend on the head. “None of that.” She said in a stern voice. “We all did the debrief together with Nezu and the teachers. We can’t save everyone.” Setsuna caressed his face and gave him a smile. “Next time, we’ll win the day and save everyone we can.”
Izuku gave her smile and pressed his lips to hers. “Thank you Setsuna.” He said softly. “I just feel like I could have done more.”
“That’s what makes you a good person.” Setsuna told her before wrapping him in a tight hug. “One day at a time.” She pulled back from the hug and patted Izuku on the chest. “Come on, we need to meet up with the others and I know Eri and Raph were wanting to spend some time with you.”
“Then what are we waiting for?” Izuku asked with a chuckle. “Shall we my Dino Queen?”
“We shall.” Setsuna replied with a faux-posh accent.
Mina latched onto his other arm. “Let’s go!” She said with a giggle.
The teachers took the opportunity to push the class harder and started rotating students through the CQC teacher Yor Forger. That had been an informative and painful lesson for all of the Hero students when she displayed her skills to the class. Mt. Lady and Midnight had picked up the role as Homeroom teachers to help Vlad King keep them on track.
Shouta had been leading his team on extra raids looking for the missing students, but they were still coming up empty on any leads to the missing students. He would check on his students once a week to see how they are progressing for the upcoming Sports Festival.
Izuku had used the past two weeks to get to know his classmates better and to show them more videos from the Ranger Archives. This had helped spur everyone on to do their best. Izuku promised that after the Sports Festival he would bring everyone to the Command Center and let them get an in person look at their Zords.
Izuku was happy to hear that SPD was flooded with applications from people with and without Quirks. Nezu was in talks to the Musutafu area to start posting SDP Officers around the area to help out the local precincts. That deal was going to go into effect around the time of the Internships. Several of the rougher areas around Musutafu had been bought up and new construction was going on for housing and business to accommodate the growing organization.
Izuku and Nezu were in talks with Mona Yaoyorozu about their own PR blitz right after the Sports Festival. Mona was almost giddy to lead the charge against Tanaka and the Commission.
There was also a fundraiser event that Inko had requested be set up for the Fukuro Orphanage for Wayward Souls. Izuku made a note on his calendar and asked his classmates for any volunteers. The page was filled with volunteers for the fundraiser within a few minutes of it being posted. Izuku was thrilled to get so many of his friends and classmates wanting to help.
Nezu had secured All Might, Miruko, Ryukyu, Mt, Lady, Midnight, Thirteen, and the WWP for the Press Conference. He cackled at the chaos that was going to be unleashed after so many well-known Pros were promoting SPD.
Izuku closed the file and leaned back in his chair. He rubbed his tired eyes and let out a deep sigh. He smiled as a pair of arms wrapped around his chest from behind. “Hey Ochako.” Izuku said, breathing in her scent. “Everything is ok.”
“Izuku.” Ochako muttered with a yawn. “Come to bed. It’s getting late and tomorrow is a big day.” She nuzzled the top of his head. “We want you to cuddle with us.”
Izuku chuckled and nodded his head. “Sorry.” He said standing up and turning around to capture her lips with a quick kiss. “I lost track of time looking at the Isamu file.” He reached up to cup her face with his hand. “Forgive me.”
“Again?” Ochako let out a sigh and gave her boyfriend a soft smile. “You need to quit punishing yourself.” She pressed a quick kiss on his nose. “We’ll find them, but you need to sleep. I want you at full strength when I beat you tomorrow.” She gave him a cheeky smile.
“Well see about that, my Space Queen.” Izuku murmured, leaning down to nip her neck with his teeth. “If you win, I’m all yours for the night my dear.” He lifted his head back up to give her an almost feral grin.
“Noted.” Ochako replied, licking her lips. “Now.” She gave him a stern look and pointed in the direction of the bedroom. “March.”
“Yes. Ma’am.” Izuku replied with a wink before scooping her up in a bridal carry and getting Ochako to make an adorable squeak. “Adorable as always.”
“I will get you back for that.” Ochako muttered while leaning into his chest. “It's my turn to cuddle with you and I need your warmth to help me get to sleep.”
“Of course.” Izuku replied, walking into the bedroom and looking at his sleeping girlfriends. Mina was cuddled up with Setsuna as the little spoon. Toru was cuddled up using Mei’s shoulder as a pillow and her tail was wrapped around the tech genius wrist. And then there was Momo who was cuddled up to Pony like she was a stuffed toy. Pony had her horns covered and was smiling in her sleep.
Only Kyoka was still awake and sending a stern look at Izuku. “I’m sorry my Music Queen.” He said with an apologetic smile. “I lost track of time. I am all yours to cuddle with.”
“You better.” Kyoka said, pointing to the empty spot on the bed next to her. “You need to rest too, Izu.” She extended her jacks to lightly tap him on the nose. “Now get in bed.”
Izuku slid onto the bed and laid Ochako down beside him. “I’ll be better about this in the future.” He said pulling the punk girl into a loving kiss. “I don’t want to miss moments like this.”
“We’ll make sure to remind you.” Kyoka replied, nuzzling into the side of Izuku’s neck. “Sleep. I know we're going to need it tomorrow.” She let out a sigh when Izuku wrapped an arm around her.
“What she said.” Ochako muttered before taking Izuku’s right shoulder. “Sleep.”
Izuku let out a content sigh as he closed his eyes as he thought back to the conversation with the girls a few days prior.
“So.” Mina said, rubbing her hand together as she looked at Toru, Mei, and Izuku. “So, our resident Tech genius sneaks into your room after you and Toru did the deed.” She paused to look directly at Toru. “We are going to talk later for all the details, bestie.” She chuckled at Toru’s skin turning a light pink. “Which turned into a threesome.” She took a deep breath. “Did I miss anything?”
“Nope.” Mei replied with a bored shrug. “It was fun and I would do it again.” She looked over at Toru and Izuku. “Did I do something wrong?” She tilted her head sideways in confusion.
“No sweetie.” Momo said, giving Mei a kind smile. “It’s just something we really haven’t discussed since we all agreed to date Izuku.” She looked around to see Ochako and Kyoka were both blushing a bright red. Setsuna, Mina, and Pony were smirking at one another. “I am good if we want to turn this into a Polyamorous relationship.”
“Poly-what?” Mei asked, knitting her eyebrows in confusion.
“Polyamorous.” Setsuna replied with a toothy grin. “It means we would date each other while still dating Izuku.” She glanced over in Mina's direction. “I’m down.”
Mei nodded her head in understanding. “Oh ok.” She looked over at Toru. “Want to go out on a date with me?” She gave the chameleon girl a sincere smile. “I had fun last time we were together.”
Toru walked over and wrapped Mei in a hug. “I would love to Mei.” She said allowing her skin to shift to various colors. “Obviously I’m in.”
“Mina cooed at the sight. “Ok, I will say that if someone is mean to Mei and makes her cry, I am kicking their butt.” She said in a protective manner. “Also, I am good with dating one another.”
Pony got a little shy and raised her hand. “I-I’d be interested in giving it a shot.” She said feeling her face warm up. “I feel comfortable around everyone here.”
Ochako tapped her finger together. “C-Can I think about it?” She asked the group. “I-I am not sure if I am interested in girls that way.”
Izuku walked over and scooped Ochako up into a hug. “Ochako.” He said softly in her ear. “You don’t have to do anything you don’t feel comfortable with.” He gave her a tender kiss. “Take all the time you need.”
Kyoka smiled over at Izuku. “I will think about it as well.” She said twirling her jack with her pointer finger. “I like you all and I enjoy spending time together but I am with Ochako on wanting to think over if I want to date one of the girls.” She gave him a playful pout.
Izuku saw what she was playing at and set Ochako down with one more kiss and moved over to the punk girl and gave her a passionate kiss. Kyoka let out a moan and wrapped her arms around his neck. Kyoka felt her jacks fluttering around, but was too focused on the kiss.
Izuku pulled back and gave her a wink before taking a step back. “I love all of you.” He said making sure to look each of them in the eyes. “I want you all to be happy and I see you all as my equal. IF this is what you girls want, then we can give it a try and see where it goes.” He glanced over to Kyoka and Ochako. “You two take your time to decide. You both are still my girlfriends either way.”
His girlfriends all rushed him and practically tackled him to the floor. After countless kisses, they all sat down to work out the change to their relationship. Plans were made for their down time after the Sports Festival.
Izuku let out a content sigh as he drifted off to sleep with a smile on his face.
UA was a hive of activity as people were trying to get through the new security to find their seats at the Sport Stadium. SPD had provided officers to help with Security and crowd control. They had blocked off the way to the main school building, training areas, and the dorms with barricades and Officers to redirect people wanting to check out the dorms and turn them back to the stadium. UA was currently the most secured site in all of Japan.
Countless food stands were set up to provide the large crowd of people with food and drinks. Souvenir stands were set up to help raise money for the school and other businesses that relied on revenue from the Sports Festival to keep their doors open.
Families were talking excitedly about seeing their children complete in one of the biggest events of the year. Many were bragging about their children and bets were made on who would win it all.
Many Pros had turned out to scout future internship opportunities and wanted to see how much this year students had improved after the attack at the USJ. Several had their eye on a specific student, but wanted to see how everyone performed during the Festival before sending an internship request.
Many Support Companies turned out as well to see to the Support Course was about to unveil during the day's three events. In the last few years, Support Students had been offered exclusive contracts for their inventions from some of the biggest Support Companies.
Nero let out a tired sigh as he looked at his watch for the 4th time in the past ten minutes. “Where are you Hisashi?” He muttered before scanning all the people passing by to enter UA. Things had not been going well for him since his ‘attack.’ They had accepted his report on what happened to his son, but had heard through the grapevine that the President was still leading the charge to have him arrested.
Nero cursed his old partner Fugaku for not destroying his records for their illegal dealings. Nero’s allies were dwindling as more of them were snatched up and charged for countless crimes. Thankfully, Nero still had the money from All for One to help him get out of Japan. Scorpina had done some weird magic on the case making it so only he could see it. He had recovered the case and dropped the money off in a secret account only known to Hisashi and himself.
“Hopefully that idiot can buy me some time.” Nero grumbled as he sent Hawks another message on a set of targets for him to take out during the festival. After the disastrous ending with operation with Miruko, Hawks was out of commission for almost two weeks. Nero decided to report that Hawks was on a secret assignment to keep him out of sight in case Miruko came after him for answers. His goal was to use the Sports Festival as a distraction to slip out of Japan and rebuild his life in the USA.
“Still as anxious as ever.” A deep voice said from behind him.
Nero rolled his eyes. “Still like to walk up behind people.” He snarked back at his old friend. Hisashi was dressed in a high-class black suit and shoes. His dark red tie and vest stood out over his white shirt. His black hair was slicked back and shiny from the gel to hold it in place. Nero noted that Hisashi was not sporting a neatly trimmed beard; the man had not lost any of his muscle mass. The man towered over the crowd and was drawing many eyes from the women nearby with his good looks. “Bout time you showed up.” He said, holding out his hand. “My things. I need to disappear.”
“I got them.” Hisashi replied, pulling a manila fold out of his jacket pocket. “New bank accounts, ID, Passport, and resume for your new life.” He narrowed his eyes at Nero. “Information on my Ex? I tried to stop by the old apartment and the place was empty.” He had wanted to catch them both by surprise before they left for UA, but the apartment was cleaned out. The maintenance man said they moved out several weeks ago with no forward address.
Nero sighed and pulled out a folder of his own and handed it to Hisashi. “I got what I could find and all the current events. I have no idea on an address since I didn’t know they moved.” He said taking his envelope from his old friend. “I found a judge that will hear your case, but he is not in anyone's pocket. A true-blue honest Judge.”
Hisashi narrowed his eyes. “What the hell?” He hissed at Nero and smoke started to appear around his lips. “I told you to get me a judge to help me. And you give me someone who isn’t on the payroll?” He knew that his old friend would cock this whole thing up.
“I am fleeing Japan.” Nero hissed back with an incredulous look. “Everything is burning down around me. I lost a lot of good blackmail material when Fugaku went down. I am sure the old battle ax will have a warrant out for my arrest sooner or later after she has enough to bury me in some deep dark hole for the rest of my life..” He crossed his arms. “I told you my options were limited when you asked for this favor. Take it or leave it.”
Hisashi blew out an angry breath and smoke billowed slightly. “Fine.” He growled looking at the folder. “My tickets to get in?”
“In the back of the folder.” Nero said with a sigh. “I’ll contact you when I get set up in the US.” He turned to leave. “Good Luck with your Ex.”
“Thanks.” Hisashi replied sarcastically. He glanced over the file and sighs as nothing had really changed since he left Japan. “Looks like my attorney will have to earn his fee this time.” He needed to reconnect with Izuku to help his businesses. Both legit and criminal.
He put the folder in a secret pocket in his jacket and made his way back towards his wife. She still looked every bit the model and was dressed in an expensive dress to match his suit. Her blonde hair was in a tight bun and her make-up made her radiant. Karina’s Quirk was Kinetic Barrier and let her make a shield with her mind.
Beside her were his 9-year-old twin boys Jack and John. They looked like spitting images of Hisashi as a child and both boys had his ruthlessness and cunning.
Jack had his hair a little shorter than his twin and had a slightly bigger build. His Quirk was Dragon’s Breath. A power version of Hisashi’s quirk. He was charismatic and manipulative.
John’s Quirk was Flame Barrier. It was a combination of his parents' quirks that allowed him to make barriers of fire with his mind. He was currently on his 2nd suspension from school for fighting with his Quirk.
The last of his children was his favorite child. His 11-year-old daughter Pyria. She looked like a clone of her mother with blonde hair and gray eyes. She was being scouted by several Hero schools in the US for her powerful Quirk Flame Body. She was able to cover her body in flames that acted like armor. She was also able to fly and fire blasts from her hands. Her nickname was the Human Torch. She is on the fast track for her to be recruited by top Pros in the US when she was older.
All of his children with Karina had been perfect and powerful. He was glad to see all that money he spent on their genetic engineering was paying off. Now he would wait for his daughter to rise through the ranks and allow him to operate freely in the shadows and expand his criminal empire. “Hey everyone.” He said in a cheery voice. “I got our tickets.”
“Sweet.” Jack said, pumping his fist.
John just shrugged. “Whatever.”
Pyria looked at her father. “Are we going to meet our brother before the Festival starts?” She asked out of curiosity. She had been more than a little surprised to find out about him after the USJ incident. He had told them they would travel to japan to see him at the Sports Festival. She had so many questions.
“We’ll see.” Hisashi replied with a tense smile. “Let’s go find our seats before it gets too crowded.” He guided his family inside and hoped to spot Inko to track her down later to find Izuku. He owls not leave here today empty handed.
As Hisashi led his family through security he smirked as he was getting closer to getting what he wanted and getting a little payback against his Ex. Izuku was a child and would want nothing more than his Fathers approval. How hard could he be to manipulate?
Nezu got the alert on his phone as a flagged name passed through security. “Well.” He said, narrowing his eyes at the name Hisashi Midoriya. “What have we here?” He started to dive into the man's life. “DECA, can you help me with something please?”
“Of course.” DECA replied happily.
Nezu sent a message to Inko to give her a heads up. “I don’t see this ending well.” He said worried about his student.
The tunnels were brimming with activity as classes went to their assigned location and each class was given matching UA gym uniforms. The students were showing various emotions as they waited for the Sport Festival to start. The tunnel was starting to get loud as everyone’s emotions were running high.
Izuku looked around at class 1-AB and saw his classmates were getting anxious and excited for things to start. “Everyone.” He called out loud enough to get everyone's attention. “I know that everyone is excited to show off how much they have improved since the start of the semester.”
“Izuku is right.” Momo called out smiling brightly as she moved closer to Izuku. “I hope all of you are ready to give it everything you’ve got.” She looked at her fellow hero students. “Make sure you don’t have any regrets by the end of the day.”
Itsuka walked over to join her fellow Class President. “Momo and Izuku are right.” She rested her hands on her hips. “I expect everyone to dig deep and push hard for the Festival. We only get two more of these to make a name for ourselves before we graduate.”
Izuku smiled and gestured to all his classmates. “Let’s go out there and give them a Sports Festival they will never forget by Going Beyond!”
“Plus, Ultra!” Everyone cried out excitedly.
Izuku blew out a breath as he wrapped an arm around Momo’s waist. “Thanks for the help.” He said stealing a quick kiss. “One speech down and one to go.” Izuku was getting better with his public speaking, but still got bad anxiety from it.
“You are welcome Darling.” Momo purred and grabbed Izuku by the collar and pulled him into a heated kiss. “You will do fine when you give the Opening Speech. You did take First Place at the Entrance exam and shattered the record.”
“You got this.” Mina said walking over and rested her chin on Izuku’s shoulder. “I just wish I could have worn my costume.” She let out an exaggerated sigh.
Kirishima laughed as he walked over and patted his oldest friend on the back. “I know what you mean.” He said, giving his gym jacket a tug with his hand. “Midnight told us that it was to keep it fair for everyone.”
“Kiri is right.” Melissa said, crossing her arms. “I was hoping to put my new gauntlets through the ringer, but I’ll manage without them for today.
Ochako walked over with a determined look on her face and her hands clenched. “Let's do our best.” She said with a fire in her eyes that showed how excited she was. “I don’t want any of you to hold back.”
“This is a new side to you Ochako. Kero.” Tsu said, nodding her head at the gravity girl. “I won’t hold back. I am going to win.”
“Don’t expect a walk in the park.” Raphael said cracking knuckles. “My brothers and I aren’t afraid of a good fight.”
“Easy Raph.” Leonardo said with a tired sigh. “Remember not to go too far with the fighting.”
“Like Leo,” Michelangelo said, throwing his arm around his brother. “Chill out Bro. This is going to be fun.”
Jennika rolled her eyes. “Remember that we need to do well to get an internship.” She reminded her adopted brothers. “I’m looking forward to the challenge.”
Pony cracked her neck and gave everyone a smile. “Better put up or shut up.” She said, rolling her shoulders. “My family is here to see me compete and I plan on making it to the last round.”
A loud pop got everyone's attention. They turn to look at Bakugo snarling. “You extras are pissing me off.” He shook his head and gestured all around him. “This is where I will prove to all of you that I am the top dog around here. Not Deku and definitely not any of you worthless extras. You all should just quit.”
Shoto moved to stand in front of Izuku. “Big talk coming from you..” He said, crossing his arms and giving the blonde a cold stare. “For someone who hasn’t won anything since he arrived at UA.” He stared the blonde down. “You lost the Battle Trials against Izuku. You lost to Pony during the Special match. I have yet to see you prove you are actually better than any of us.”
“HA!” Michelangelo laughed. “BURN!”
Chuckles could be heard from different groups that heard Shoto’s insult to Bakugo.
“What was that you half and half fuck?” Katsuki snapped, letting off more small pops in his hands. “I WILL win today and it will go down in history at the day I the Future #1 Hero made his debut.” He stomped forward and jabbed a finger in Izuku's face. “I’ll prove that you are a fraud and that without your little toy, you can’t beat me.”
“We’ll see.” Izuku replied, refusing to back down from her former friend. “Meet me in the 3rd round and prove it.” Izuku then raised his hands and pointed to the large group around them. “They won’t make it easy and neither will I. So either put up or shut up.”
“Deku.” Katsuki snarled and clenched his hands. “I’ll destroy you.”
“Bakugo!” Tenya shouted loud enough to get everyone’s attention. “It's not proper to threaten a fellow classmate!”
Itsuka squared off with Katsuki. “Stop with the swearing or I will report you to the teachers.” She said in an authoritative tone. “Your attitude is getting old real fast.”
“Fuck off Four Eyes.” Katsuki snapped at the blue haired boy before turning to the Orangette. “Fuck you too bitch.
Shoji bristled, but was stopped by Koda placing a hand on his arm.
Raphael moved to stand next to Shoto. “I hope you and I run into each other later on.” He said, glaring down at the blonde bomber. “I’ll be more than happy to knock you down a few pegs pup.”
“Not if I get to him first.” Itsuka said, punching her fist. “I am tired of his trash talking.”
“Bakugo.” Hitoshi said in a bored tone. “Stop being a little girl.”
“What Did-,” Katsuki started before his eyes glazed over.
Hitoshi let out a sigh. “Be quiet until the Festival starts.
“Hitoshi.” Toru said, letting out a giggle. “That was awesome.” She walked over and waved her hand in front of the now silent Bakugo
“Thanks for the help Shoto.” Izuku said, patting him on the back. “I could have handled him.”
“I know.” Shoto said with a faint smile. “It's my job to look after my little brother.”
“Ugh.” Izuku said in a mocking tone of annoyance. “That is not how it works, Shoto.”
“Natsuo and I agreed that you are the little brother.” Shoto replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
Denki started laughing. “Hang in there Izuku.” He said with a teasing smile. “Us younger siblings have to stick together.”
Izuku let out a defeated sigh before he started to laugh. The tension was now broken and everyone was more relaxed as they waited for the festival to start. He looked over to see Mei and Donatello doing their final checks on their gear. He was broken out of his musing when a pair of arms wrapped around his waist. “Hey Setsuna.”
“How do you know?’ She asked, nuzzling the back of his neck. “You always figure it out.”
Izuku chuckled. “Each of you has your own way of holding me.” He replied, turning around to face her. “Nervous?”
“Not anymore.” Setsuna said with a cheeky smile. “I have my good luck charm.” She pressed a soft kiss against her lips. “How much longer do we have to wait?”
Izuku pulled his phone out of his pocket. “About 10 minutes.” He said putting his phone away.
“Good.” Setsuna whispered and nuzzled up against him. “I get some time to cuddle before we start.”
“I wonder if Mom and the others found the box ok.” Izuku wondered as he walked over to stand with the rest of his friends and girlfriends.
“They found the private box and are waiting for the Sports Festival to start.” Mina said, showing Izuku her phone. “Mom is currently watching Eri and Raph play with my siblings.” She latched onto Izuku’s free side. “So, relax before you have to give your speech.”
Izuku nodded his head as both Setsuna and Mina cuddled into his side. He did his best to relax but he had a feeling something was going to happen. Izuku did his best to ignore this feeling as focus on the upcoming Opening Speech.
Private Box
Inko watched as her granddaughters were talking excitedly to Ashido triplets as Fire Heart was flying around them. She had a feeling in the pit of her stomach that had been bothering her all morning. She knew that UA was the safest place in Japan to be at the moment. Between the countless Pro Heroes and SPD officers patrol the area that only a fool would attack them. Kaina had left early that morning to get her team in place for the day.
Then she got the message that her Ex had showed up to UA with his family from the US. Nezu promised to keep tabs on them and keep her in the loop about their movements. Inko had informed Rei, Kaina, and her daughters. She made them promise not to tell Izuku until the Festival was over.
Inko knew that Blue Senturion and Robo Knight were patrolling the Stadium as well. Before she left the apartment, she grabbed her Morpher from its hiding spot.
“Inko.” Rei said, giving her girlfriend a gentle tap on the shoulder. “Are you ok? Besides your Ex being here?” She had noticed the concerned look on Inko’s face all morning.
“It's probably nothing.” Inko replied, placing a kiss on Rei’s cheek. “I’ve just had this odd feeling all morning.” Inko blew out a breath. “I think I am being paranoid.”
“Nothing wrong with that.” Rei replied, pulling Inko into a hug. “We’ll keep an eye on things. I’m sure Nezu is doing the same.”
“Thank you.” Inko replied softly.
Rei gave Inko a chaste kiss. “My pleasure.” She patted Inko on the back. “Let's go chat with the other parents before Izuku has to give his speech.”
“Sounds lovely dear.” Inko replied with a bright smile. The private box had been given to Inko by Nezu himself. She had invited all of the parents of the girls that were dating her son. She had also invited Toshinori and Mitsuki to join them to catch up with her friend. Miruko, Ryukyu, and Mt. Lady were in costume talking between one another about possible choices for internships. Dulcea has joined them as well. She had been curious about the day's events and after Izuku explained it to her, she decided to come watch it.
The last group to arrive was Laura Tsunotori, Cathy Bates, and David Shield.
“Sorry we were late.” Laura said, sending an amused look at David. “Someone got distracted by one of the robots patrolling the school.”
Cathy was snickering as she crossed her arms. “I had to drag him away by picking him up by his shirt collar.” She explained to the room. “He was still asking questions as I carried him away.”
“It's a technical marvel!” David said as his face turned red with embarrassment. “It's also sentient. I had so many questions.” He was writing down notes in a nice black leather bound notebook. “This Robo Knight could be the key to advanced prosthetics!”
Toshnori let out a sigh at his best friend. “Never change my old friend.” He said before chuckling lightly.
“I can see where Melissa gets it.” Mituski mused. “Nice to finally meet you. Your daughter is a delight.”
“Thank you.” David replied with a proud smile. “I'd like to hear more about what she has been up to.”
Toshinori gave the man a knowing smile. “You want to know about her boyfriend.”
“That too.” David replied a little too quickly.
“Finally!” Miruko called out. “It's about to start!”
Everyone in the booth made their way to the main window to watch.
“WELCOME LADIES AND GENTLEMAN TO THE UA SPORTS FESTIVAL!”
“I AM YOUR HOST FOR THE DAY, PRESENT MIC! AND JOINING ME IN THE COMMENTATOR’S THIS YEAR IN THE BOOTH IS MY NEW PARTNER IN CRIME, Vlad King!”
Izuku was walking down the tunnel leading to the stadium. The tension was continuing to build through all the students as they reached the exit. Everyone had to shield their eyes from the brightness of the son and a moment later the cheering of the crowd filled the stadium.
“LEADING THE GROUP OF STUDENTS IS CLASS 1AB! THAT IS RIGHT FOLKS! THE HEROIC CLASS HAVE BEEN COMBINED AND THEY HAVE SHOWN THEIR TEAMWORK IN TRAINING AND AT THE USJ!”
“Wow.” Ochako said in awe. “There are so many people here.” She was getting a little nervous when she felt someone gently grasp her hand. Ochako glanced to see Izuku holding her hand. “Thank you.”
“Anytime.” Izuku replied with a wink.
THE NEXT GROUP IS THE GENERAL EDUCATIONS STUDENTS THAT ARE HOPING TO EARN A CHANCE TO EARN AN OPEN SEAT IN THE HERO COURSE. WELCOME CLASS 1-C, 1-D, and 1-E!
Izuku glanced back to see the determined look on the General Students' faces. He knew that why were all looking for a chance to prove they belonged in the open seat in the heroics class.
NEXT WE HAVE THE SUPPORT COURSE TO SHOW OFF THEIR INVENTIONS SHOW OFF THE NEXT POSSIBLE BIG THING IN SUPPORT GEAR! CAN I GET A BIG HAND FOR CLASSES 1-F, 1-G, and 1-H!”
“TIme to show the world our babies Donnie!’ Mei said, bouncing excited as she followed her classmates. “I want to make a big splash.”
“Phrasing is important Mei.” Donatell said laughing and gave her a competitive smile. “Time to see whose gear is better.”
Mei just gave him a feral smile. “Bring it on buddy.” She quipped with her best friend.
THE LAST GROUP IN LINE AND SMALLEST OF OUT COMPETITORS IS THE BUSINESS COURSE! THIS YEAR WE HAVE 4 STUDENTS PARTICIPATING FROM CLASS 1-K!
Izuku was a bit surprised to see anyone from the business course participating in the Sports Festival. Those students were normally focused more on business. In the past 5 years of watching the Sports Festival only one other Business student had participated and they were eliminated in the first event.
NOW I HAVE THE HONOR TO WELCOME THIS YEAR'S UMPIRE FOR THE SPORTS FESTIVAL, THE R-18 HEROINE MIDNIGHT!”
The crowd went wild as Midnight stepped onto the stage with a seductive sway of her hips and blowing kisses to the crowd. “Thank you, Present Mic!” She called out with a bright smile. “It is my privilege to invite the student that took 1st place during the Entrance Exam and decimated the record that was set by All Might himself!” She purposely paused to build up the tension in the crowd. “Izuku Midoryia, please come up to the stage please!”
In the Private Box
Inko was cheering loudly. “THAT MY SON!” She boasted while beaming from ear to ear.
“Go Papa!” Eri hooted as loud as she could.
Raphtalia was jumping up and down. “YEAH!” Papa!’She squealed.
Nana was clapping hard. “Way to go little brother.” She said, smiling brightly at her brother making his way up to the podium.
“He’s earned this.’ Ryukyu praised, beaming with pride at her brother.
“YOU GOT THIS!” Miruko bellowed while pumping her fist in the air.
Mt. Lady let out a whistle and clapped loud enough to be heard. “Go Izuku!” She cheered.
Izuku was doing his best to keep from panicking. He could hear a lot of cheering and people calling out his name, but he was hearing a lot of booing coming from that stands as well. He swallowed hard as he made his way up the steps to the microphone.
“You got this.” Midnight whispered. She gave him a wink and a thumbs up.
Izuku couldn't help but smile. He stepped up the microphone and looked out to see everyone looking at him. He dug down deep and took a deep breath before he started his speech. “Thank you Miss Midnight. I want to start out by asking every pro, and future here a question. What if tomorrow All Might announced his retirement?” Izuku paused to let the crowd talk amongst itself.
“I know this is a daunting question but it is one that we must be ready to answer. All Might is not a God, he is human just like you and I and one day he will either retire or God forbid die.” He could already hear some muttering from his comments. “All Might has been the Symbol of Peace and a hero for 3 decades and helped lower the crime rate in Japan. I have admired him since I was very young but he has made one mistake in his exceptionally and successfully long career, he has stood against the darkness in Japan alone.”
Izuku listened as the stadium started to go silent again. “He has put the weight of our safety for all of Japan on his shoulders alone for decades and has shouldered the burden of being the lone Pillar of Justice in the country that everyone looks up to.” Izuku took another deep breath before he continued. “But one pillar no matter how strong can not be the foundation for our great country, a safe country from those that wish to destroy it.” Izuku paused for a moment. “A wise man named Tecumseh one said that a single twig can be broken, but a bundle of twigs is unbreakable. We shall stand together and add our support to All Might’s and add our Pillars of Hope and Justice to All Might’s, to make this country stronger.”
Izuku looked around the stadium before he continued. “I know many of you in the stands despise me from what you have heard about me in the press from the Commision. I am some quirkless freak who got lucky with my support item. But no. I trained hard and I fought just as hard as any other student for the right to stand here today in front of all of you on this stage. Along the way I have met so many promising hero's and I call many of them my friends and even teammates as my fellow Power Rangers.” Izuku looked down and smiled at his friends and girlfriends as they cheered him on. “With this generation of Heroes and SPD working together, the possibilities are endless.”
“But I have also seen the worst of what this world can offer as well and my goal is make the world a brighter place for future generations to come. So to cut a long winded speech short. This is my pledge, that as you watch us today, Hero course students, show them what the next generation of Heroes can do! Support course students, show everyone what your amazing gear can do in the battle against the forces of evil! General and business Students, show them that just because you are not in the Hero course that you are still a force to be reckoned with and maybe earn a spot with the Hero Students or SPD!. Rangers let's show the world that you don't need a quirk for everything and that we were chosen as Power Rangers for a reason! Let us show the world why they should have no fear, for all of us are here! We are the future of heroics. We will show the villains there is no shadow to hide behind that the Light of Justice won’t find them. The weak and innocent shall smile and know that when they see us because they will know they are safe from evil. And our comrades will know that all of us will fight with everything we have, for what if our motto here at UA!! Go beyond!!” Izuku shouted at the top of his lungs
“Plus Ultra!!!" The entire stadium replied so loud that it shook the stadium before applause and cheering drowned out everything.
In the Private Box.
“Thanks Izuku.” Toshinori said, wiping the tears from his eyes. He looked down at his students and saw the bright future that Izuku was talking about. He knew that Izuku was right about him bearing the burden of keeping Japan safe for so long was tiring. He looked over to see his girlfriend cheering alongside Inko and her family. Toshinori had been considering announcing his retirement at the end of this semester and becoming a teacher full time. He wanted to spend more time with Mitsuki and maybe travel a bit. He had heard from Nezu that the analysis of the Nomus was finally being released by the Commission on Monday. They had been dragging their feet since the meeting between the President, Nezu and Izuku. He would make his decision about retiring based on those results.
“You good?” Mitsuki asked, taking his hand in hers.
Toshinori gave her a bright smile. “Just thinking about a few things.” He said leaning down to steal a kiss. “Mainly last night.” The night before they had taken their relationship to the next level and planned on speaking with katsuki after the festival.
Mitsuki flushed and elbowed her boyfriend playfully. “Behave.”
“I’ll try.” Toshinori replied with a playful wink.
Inko gave them both a knowing smile. “Keep it PG around the children you two.” She said tilting her head in the direction of the children cheering at the window.
The room broke out into chuckles as Mitsuki’s face got red and Toshinori logged a bit chagrined. They turned their attention back to the festival as they started cheering for their children.
“WHAT A YOUTHFUL AND INVIGORATING SPEECH!” Midnight shouted as she played up the crowd with her persona. “TIME TO GET THIS SPORTS FESTIVAL STARTED!!” She waited patiently as she waited for the crow to calm slightly. “LET'S SEE WHAT THIS YEAR'S FIRST EVENT IS !” With a snap of her whip, the screen changed to a routleet spinning with the various options. The grow chanting grew louder as the roulette started to slow down and finally came to a stop. “IT’S AN OBSTACLE COURSE!” The screen changed to show a cartoon version of an obstacle course. “IT WILL BE 4K COURSE THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO NAVIGATE VARIOUS OBSTACLES! THE TOP 60 STUDENTS WILL MOVE ONTO THE NEXT ROUND!” Midnight gave the students a feral grin. “DON'T HOLD BACK UNLESS YOU WANT TO MISS OUT ON THE NEXT ROUND!” Midnight snapped her whip and pointed to the starting line. “LINE UP AND WAIT FOR MY SIGNAL TO START!”
The students scrambled to the start line as their excitement and nerves filled that atmosphere.
Katsuki made sure to shove many students out of his way and rough shoulder checked izuku as he walked by. “Get the Fuck out of me way.” He snarled moving to the front of the group.”
“Do you wake up an asshole or do you just choose to be one?” Kyoka growled out as she watched the blonde spit at Izuku's feet.
“Piss off bitch.” Katsuki growled back without looking back as he started at the course ahead of him. “Stay out of my way or die like the rest of these worthless extras.”
“I’d advise you to choose your actions wisely Bakugo.” Ibara said in a stern tone. “If you continue to look down on the rest of us, then you may be in for a rude awakening when those ‘Extras' you insulted knock you out of the race.”
“What she said!” Tetsutetsu exclaimed and punched his fist into his hand. “Don't look down on us!”
“Just ignore him.” Izuku said, watching as his former friend started shoulders tense up and started growling. “Just do your best and beat him that way.”
Kirishima rolled his neck. “Damn straight.” He said, giving everyone a toothy smile.
“Try and keep up boys.” Pony joined in with a big smile.
Melisaa laughed and dropped into a ready position. “Pony said it best.” She said as flashes of yellow lightning started arching all over her body. “Do try and keep up.”
Stadium
As the students started to get ready for the start of the first event. As a couple of SPD officers were making the rounds to keep an eye out for trouble. As they moved on to the next area, a small portion of the wall shimmered as a figure slipped out of a shadow.
The figure reached up with a hand to double-check to see if their mask was in place. "Good, my calculations were correct." The figure said beaming with pride. "My jammer is in place so DECA cant pick me up cameras or sensors and I have plenty of time before anyone knows I'm gone." They pulled out a small square and pressed it into a wall and then touched it three times and disappeared. A moment later the figure reappeared inside a private viewing box filled with a comfortable chair and lots of snacks. "I can't wait to brag to the others about seeing this first hand." They slipped off their cloak and mask rubbed their hands together. “Let the fun begin.”
“EVERYONE COUNT WITH ME AS WE START THE FIRST EVENT!” Prescient Mic screamed into the microphone. “3, 2, 1. GO!”
MMPR: The Movie Soundtrack - Track 04 - Devo - "Are You Ready"
All the students surged forward as they ran for the tunnel in front of them.
“AND THERE OFF!” Present Mic exclaimed with excitement.
Izuku tore off as in a dead run as he watched that everyone competing was crowding around each other trying to get through the tunnel first. He watched as Bakugo launched himself forward with a blast that got him airborne and forced several students to dodge the explosions. He was followed a minute later by a yellow blur as Melissa was hot on his trail. He moved into the tunnel as Pony shot past him on her horns. “Looking good Pony.” He said dodging elbows and shoulders as he ran.
“”Thank you.” Pony replied with a devilish grin. “Try and keep up handsome.” She blew him a kiss before passing him.
Izuku snorted at his girlfriend and focused on keeping ahead of the crowd. He felt the temperature drop in the tunnel and he knew what was coming. He was about 10 feet from the exit of the tunnel and darted towards the wall and used it as a springboard to launch himself out of the tunnel.
He tucked and rolled as he hit the ground and came back to his feet without losing momentum. He looked back to see a large chuck of ice was blocking about 3 foot of the tunnel. “You almost got me Shoto.”
“I was just trying to keep you on your toes little brother.” Shoto said trailing just behind Izuku. “Hopefully I can get a shot at Baukgo to shut him up.”
“This is plenty of time.” Izuku said, looking back to see more students making it over the ice embankment and moving behind them. “Now to see who catches up to us first.”
It wasn't long before Tenya blew past them at full speed. “Good Job you two!’ He called out without slowing down.
“Well that was nice of him.” Shoto said before sending a burst of cold ahead of him causing Tenya to hit a patch of ice and send him spinning out. “I feel a little bad for that.”
“It is a race after all.” Izuku mused as he set himself up at a steady pace, knowing this was not a sprint by any means. He heard a lot of explosions and sparks of lightning ahead of them. “Looks like it's getting tense for first place.”
“Good.” Shoto replied, looking over his shoulder. “Looks like people are starting to catch up with us.”
Izuku looked back to see Momo, Ochako, Tetsutetsu, Kirishima, Tsu, Leonard, Raphael, Micehllangelo, and Jennika right behind him with more of Class 1-AB right behind them. “Here comes trouble.”
A cloud of smoke was seen before Mei came hovering off the ground as she wore a pair of metal boots that allowed her to slide towards them like she was skating on air. Right beside her was Donatello who was riding a type of hoverboard with an engine on the back of the board roaring with power.
“This is where the fun begins.” Izuku said before focusing on his upcoming first obstacle.
“After an amazing start, we have a three way battle for 1st place between Katsuki Bakugo, Melissa Shield, and Pony Tsunotori!” Present Mic boomed.
Private Box
“THAT MY GIRL!” Laura bellowed as her daughter battled it out for first place. “SHOW THEM WHO'S BOSS!”
“Go Pony!” Cathy cheered as she beamed at her goddaughter. “You got this.”
“Don't think my son is gonna give up 1st place easily.” Mitsuki added as she watched her son battle hard to keep his lead.” She smiled as her son was holding his own against two tough opponents. “He may be cocky at times, but he can back it up.”
“I think my daughter will take first.” Dave stated as she smiled at his daughter on the screen. He could see her smiling ear to ear as she battled for 1st place. “Melissa wont back down when she has her mind set on something.”
“Izuku is the same way.” Inko said smiling as her granddaughter cheered her son on. “This is just the beginning.”
“He has Shoto watching his back.” Rei added as she watched her son talking with izuku. “I hope the first event is too dangerous.”
“UA is known to go Plus Ultra during the Sports Festival Events.” Miruko chimed in with a grin. “Our first event was ultimate Dodgeball my first year.” She let out a content sigh. “That was the best day ever.”
“Don't remind me of that horrid day.” Ryukyu said with a shudder. “They never stopped bouncing and I still can't hear the sound of a ball bounce without cringing.”
“Tell me about it.” Mt. Lady said, shaking her head. “Our was a version of King of the Hill where they flooded the field.” She groaned at the memory. “It did Not help that it was Ice water.”
“Why is Izuku not using his Morpher?” Dulcea asked as she studied the screen. “He could have left them in the dust.”
“He wants to prove himself.” Nana said with a sad smile on her face. “He wasn't to prove he doesn't have to use it to win. That a Quirkless kid can beat the best with skill and hard work.”
“They are approaching the First event.” Toshinori said, pointing at the screen and froze. “Oh my.” He said as she saw what the first event was.
Back on the Course.
Katsuki wsa beyond pissed.
He had been the first off the line and in the lead until the horse bitch and wanna-be blonde started catching up. “FUCK Off!’ He roared as he brought his hands together to blast them off his tail. “First place is Mine!”
Pony easily evaded his attack by dropping low and sending two horns for his stomach. “Not likely bitch.” Pony shot back and grit her teeth when she saw Katsuki was able to adjust himself mid-air enough to avoid her horns. “Take this!” She sent two more at different angles. “Melissa! Truce until we deal with the douche nozzle?” SHe asked in english.
“I’m Game Pony!” Melissa shouted back as she brought her fist back. “Athena Smash 10%!” She sent a powerful attack at the blonde that blew him off course. “I see you’re all bark no bite!” Melissa couldn't help but smirk as the arrogant prick fumbled to recover. “NOW PONY!”
Katsuki was swearing as he tried to correct himself from his mid-air spin that he didn't see two horns slam into his side and knock him out of the air. “FUCK!” He hit the ground with a grunt, but rolled back to his feet and shot off into the air again right on the heels of the two thorns in his plans.
The 2v1 battle for 1st place was slowing them down as they reached the first event. Katsuki seethed when he looked back to see other students were catching up. “Fuck this.” He swore dropped low and poured on the seed as he passed the first gate. “Finally!” His victory was short lived as he was forced to dodge several barrages of rubber bullets. “That the fuck!” He was forced to drop behind some nearby cover. He peaked out to see a hoard of robots from the Entrance Exams. “For fuck sake.”
“Our three competitors have reached the first event in the race. The Robo Legion! They have to fight their way through our 1,2,3 and 0 pointer robots to move on.” Present Mic explained to the crowd. “The bullets are rubber and I can tell you from experience that those will leave a mark.”
“This will force them to adjust their plans and will either fight their way through or out run the robots to reach the other side.” Vlad Kind said watching the students start to bottle neck at the first even looking for cover. “Let’s see what they do next.”
First Obstacle.
Izuku slid to cover as the bots turned their barrage on the entrance to hit the other students. “Shoto, can you make some cover for our classmates?” he asked as he started planning his next move.
“I can.” Shoto replied, giving him an odd look. “What are you planning?” He created a safe passage with a wall of ice for people to avoid getting hit by the bullets.
“Teamwork.” Izuku pointed in the direction of robots. “These are more condensed than at the Entrance Exam and I think Nezu planned it this way.” He started looking at who was arriving and started to adjust his plans.”A few of us could power through them, but as Team, we can get through here easier.” He spotted Pony and Melissa just ahead of them. “You two ok?” Izuku called out to them.
“We're fine.” Pony replied by sending a few waves of her horns at the closest bots. “I’ve destroyed several and they just got replaced!”
“Double Athens Smash 15%!” Melissa cried out doing a quick one-two jab taking out two swaths of robots before ducking down behind her cover. “Same thing just happened.” She was glad to see Katsuki getting shot out of the air every time he tried to fly ahead of them. “What’s the plan Izuku?”
“Alright, if we work together we can get through this and move on to the next course.” He looked at everyone that had arrived. “Anyone disagree?”
“Make the call Boss.” Yui said, scooping up a handful of rocks. “We’ll follow.”
Izuku looked around and saw his fellow Rangers and classmates nodding their heads. “Let's do it.” He looked at Momo, Ochako and Yui. “You three make it rain debris or creations.”
“On it.” Yui said, giving him a thumbs up.
Ochako smirked and cracked her knuckles. “You got it.” She answered with a smirk.
“Of course Darling.” Momo replied as she started creating various items. “Here Izuku.” She tossed him a staff.”
“Thanks Momo.” He turned to Kirishiman and Tetsutetsu. “You two are our shields, keep the rounds off us as best as you can.” He instructed them and was not surprised to see both of the grinning back at him. “Head up the center and I'll be right behind you.”
“You can count on us Midobro.” Kirishima laughed as he hardened his body.
Tetsutetsu skin shifted to the color of steel. “We are the shield, you are the hammer.” He chuckled.
Izuku nodded and looked at Pony and Melissa. “You two go hard right. That seems to be where the bots are the thinnest.” He informed them as he did another quick scan of the area. “We’ll take them down in a pincer move.”
“With pleasure.” Melissa called out, charging up her quirk.
Pony cackled as she scuffed her hooves on the ground. “This is gonna be fun.”
Izuku took a deep breath and gave the group a nod. “Let's do it!” He called out as they charged forward, twirling his staff as he fell in behind Kirishima and Tetsutetsu. He watched Melissa dart away in a flash of yellow lightning with Pony flying off on her horns to back her up. When he heard a whistling noise coming from above, he let out a whistle. “INCOMING!”
Various rocks started dropping down from the air along with exploding cans of quick hardening foam either destroying or stopping the robots from being able to fire at the students.
“POUR IT ON!” Izuku hooted as he watched Melissa and Pony start cutting huge swaths together. “Girls! Move up and continue your barrage!”
“On it!” Momo, Ochako, and Yui replied together.
Izuku swung his staff and dropped a couple of one pointers then tried to flank Kirishima. “We need to keep moving” He said as he watched the bots start to move in. Izuku saw that just past the halfway mark. “We got this!” Izuku let out hiss as a stray rubber bullet hit him in the shoulder but he brushed it off and kept his eyes on the Zero Points that had not moved yet.
“Now that's what I call teamwork!” Present Mic called out as the crowd went wild. “Just Goes to show you how unstoppable they can be when they work together!”
“As one of their teachers, I am proud of my students.” Vlad King told the crow and beamed with pride. “I can't wait to see who wins this event.”
Izuku ducked as a two pointer popped up and took a few shots at his chest. He was about to strike it when globs of acid landed on its joints causing it to collapse. “Thanks Mina!” Izuku breathed out as he watched her slide up to him along with Ibara, Denki and Kamakiri running up behind her. “Nice of you to join us.”
“Sorry, it was a little congested back there.” Mina replied playfully. “Setsuna and Toru are organizing students to help catch up.” She threw several more lobs of acid before pointing up near Pony and Melissa. “Mei is with Donatello trying working on reprogramming some of the 3-pointers to help us out and his brothers were keeping the bots off them.
“Good.” Izuku smirked as he watched the battle turning in their favor. “Mina, I want you and Kamakiri to back up Kirishima and Tetsutetsu. Keep them from being swarmed.”
“On it.” Mina said with a playful salute and gave Izuku a peck on the cheek. “Better catch up soon.”
“Hell yeah!” Kamakari exclaimed as a blade appeared out of each of his arms. “Time to cut loose!”
Izuku ignored his obvious pun and looked at Ibara and Denki. “Ibara, can you use your vines to help make moving cover and Denki will act as your guard to keep the bots off you with his electricity?”
Ibara nodded her head. “It would be my honor.” She said sending her vines into the ground and creating various covers for students to hide behind if needed.”
“I’ll keep her safe.” Denki said, giving Izuku a thumbs up. “Go, we'll be behind you all shortly.”
Izuku gave them both a quick nod before hurrying to catch up with Kirishima and the others. “We're almost to the end everyone!” He bellowed as he jabbed his staff into a 2-pointer. “Watch out for the 0-pointers!”
“Izuku, watched out!” Momo called out in alarm.
He turned intime to see a pair of 1-Pointers about to ambush him. Before Izuku could react, two large bursts of water ripped through both machines. “What the?” he asked before turning to see a girl with a similar build to Yui with long blue hair that was tied into two loose pigtails with an orb of water in each hand.. “Thanks.”
“You are welcome.” The girl replied in a prim and proper tone. “Melty at your service.”
Izuku nodded his head. “How about you follow Mina and help the advance team?” He offered the newcomer while pointing at his pink skinned girlfriend.
Melty bowed her head slightly. “I will do that.” She replied before walking quickly to catch up.
Izuku felt someone tap him on the shoulder and turned to see Yui looking past him with a hint of pink on her cheeks. “Yes?’ he asked his friend.
“Her name.” Yui asked, still looking past Izuku. “Please.”
Izuku followed her gaze and noticed they were following a certain girl with blue hair. “Her name is Melty.” He said unable to suppress a smile. “How about during lunch I introduce you to her?”
“Yes.” Yui replied quickly, wrapping Izuku in a short hug. “You are the best.” She released Izuku and went to destroy more robots by enlarging pebbles and rocks into large boulders.
“That was sweet of you.” Ochako cooed as she watched Yui practically skip ahead of them.
Izuku chuckled. “Just being a good friend.” He said resting his staff on his shoulder. “Shall we ladies?”
“Of course Darling.” Momo replied, already creating more canisters for the next wave of machines. “Lead the way.”
Katsuki had been biding his time as he rubbed his hands together to generate more sweat and blasting any robot that came near him. He would let them wear themselves out with their teamwork and take his opportunity to shoot past the bots and take the lead.
‘Trigger the 0-pointers.’ The Master told him in a soothing voice. ‘That will buy you more time as they are forced to scramble to react and allow you time to escape.”
Katsuki grinned as he liked the plan as he watched the patetic Deku and his bitches move closer to the massive machines. “Perfect.” He laughed as he took a ready position and waited.
Izuku had led his classmates near the end as he heard Mei start laughing maniacally as the 3-pointers she had been working on started attacking the other robots around them. “Leave it to Mei to take over a machine.” Izuku joked as he saw the last stretch in front of them. “Final Push everyone!” He glanced back to see Fumikage unleash Dark Shadow upon the bot switch devastating effect. Tsu had been jumping back and forth taking out bots and keeping a few of their classmates safe.
Katsuki saw his chance and launched himself in the air and shot towards the opening in a burst of speed that he used from building up his sweat. He launched past all those extras and laughed as he sent out a massive explosion at the two lumbering 0-pointers causing them to turn on come to life. “EAT THAT YOU FUCKS!” Katsuki made several smaller explosions to fly away from the first obstacle leaving them in the dust.
“That bastard!” Setsuna screamed as she floated over to Izuku as the giant machines started to move towards them. “What is the plan now?”
“To level the playing field.” Izuku told her as he changed his Morpher into the Quantum Morpher. “I’m gonna make a hole for all of you. Tell everyone to get ready.”
“Are you about to do something really cool or reckless?” Setsuna asked, giving him a knowing look.”
“Yes.” Izuku replied with a grin. “Go.” He let out a sigh. “Power Loader is really gonna hate me after this.” He brought his Morpher up to his mouth. “ Q-Rex , Arise!”
“Ladies and Gentleman Katsuki Baugo has taken the lead in the Sports Festival.” Present Mic said with forced enthusiasm.
“He bided his time to escape and in the process triggered the 0-Pointers.” Vlas King recapped as calmly as possible. “Now, he has to keep it since everyone will be coming for him.”
“Wait, what is that!” Prescient Mic cried out as a portal opened and a massive robotic dinosaur with two cannons on its back came running out of the portal towards the 0-pointers. “Seems like we are going to get a special show today folks!”
“I’m making a path!’ Izuku roared to his classmates and fellow Rangers. “Q-Rex, fire your Laser cannons!” He took off running for the exit and helped out anyone he could.
The massive bipedal dinosaur Zord let out a massive roar as it lumbered forward. Its twin cannons in its back fired multiple shots that got the towering machine's attention.
The now damaged Zero Pointers detected the bigger threat and started moving away from the students and opened fire on the Q-rex. Its attacks slammed into the Q-rex, but it didn't even scratch the paint.
“This way everyone!” Izuku instructed his classmates before looking at his Zord. “Q-Rex, Megazord mode!”
“Izuku.” Setsuna said, hovering in pieces in the air and staring in awe of the Q-Rex. “Have I told you that I loved you today?”
“Several times.'' Izuku mused and gently grabbed her wrist. “We need to go.”
“But, but giant dinosaur,” Setsuna whined before turning and running alongside her boyfriend.
Izuku rolled his eyes. “I'll make it up to you.I promise.” He said as the Zord completed its transformation. “Q-Rex, Thunder Fist!”
The Q-rex raised its left arm and launched its fist into the head of one of the Zero Pointers and decapitated it with ease. The hand returned and reconnected with the Megazord as it turned its attention to the last Zero Pointer.
“Time to finish this.” Izuku said with a smirk. “Q-rex, Fire all missiles!”
The Q-Rex Megazord raised its right arm and aimed its Missile Gauntlet at the remaining Zero pointer before unleashing all 6 of its missiles at it. All that remained of it was melting slag.
Power Loader was crying out for his creation as he cursed Izuku for destroying his inventions. Again.
“Badass.” Setsuna said as she let out a low whistle. “Gonna use him to win?”
Izuku shook his head. “I called a Zord to keep everyone safe from the Zero Pointers.” He said, giving her a wink. “I’m gonna prove I can win on skill alone.” He stopped just long enough to grab a piece of metal the size of his chest and wrapped some loose wires around it. He then slipped off his jacket and hushed it as a sling to secure the items to his back. “Just in case.
“I know babe.” She replied and blew him a kiss. “I think you have been hanging out with Mei a bit too much.” Setsuan winked at him to show she was kidding. “What are you gonna do with that stuff anyway?”
Izuku was about to reply when he heard something shoot over his head and saw that it was a weird shaped rocket that was heading for a dot in the distance. “Who was that?” He asked looking back to see Mei drop a large tube on the ground. “Should have known.”
Mei glided up to Izuku grinning ear to ear. “This should tremper the blonde asshole.” She cackled as she watched the missile keep it course in her goggles from the camera feed. “Hope he likes it.”
Katsuki was grinning like a loon as he was leaving the trash behind him. He heard a mechanical roar and turned back to see that giant machine ripping through the Zero Pointers like they were paper. “Are you fucking kidding me!” He snarled and kept trying to push his body hard to the limit to maintain his lead.
‘WATCH OUT!” The Master warned him.
Katsuki tried to dodge, but the missile exploded into a massive net that wound around him and shrank, pinning the blonde's arms and fell to the ground. “What the fucks!” He screamed while trying to break free from the netting. “For fuck sake!’ He let off a few explosions, but the net didn’t give right away.
‘Seems you underestimated them.’ The Master taunted his minion. ‘Seems I have been wasting my time training you if this is stopping you.’
“It won't hold me.'' Katuski seethed as he gripped the netting tightly in his hands as started working on burning his way out. “I will not lose.”
The Master preened as he felt the boy falling further under his control. He knew that the boy would just need a few more pushes and by the end of the day, Katsuki would become Koragg willingly. The boy wouldn't see it coming while he was trying to prove that he is a Hero.
All according to his plan.
“That Lady and Gentleman is why you never cross a support student.” Vlad King said, unable to his smirk at seeing the blonde get knocked down a peg. “WIth the amazing teamwork that was just displayed by our students, they are now clearing the first objective and on their way to the second.”
“The little listeners are starting to push one another as i have not seen so many students get past the first obstacle, but as my co announcer has stated, the teamwork was amazing to witness and it had an explosive ending thanks to Izuku Midoryia!” Present Mic stated doing his best not to laugh.
Hisashi was more than a little stunned to see the giant machine appear out of nowhere and tear through UA’s robots like they were made of wet tissue. “Incredible.” He mumbled as the possibility of getting his hands on tech like that was making him see dollar signs.
“Wow.” Pyria gushed as she watched the conclusion to the first obstacle. “Big Bro is amazing.” She had been watching the videos of his appearance as Power Ranger almost non-stop since she found out about her brother.
Hisahi just nodded his head as he couldn't wait to talk to his son.
In the Private Box.
“THAT IS HOW YOU DO IT!” Nana screamed as she cheered her little brother on. “He just wrecked thos bots!” She was pumping her arm in the air. “I am so proud of him.”
“He just set the bar for next Sports Festival.” Miruko cackled as she beamed at the scream. “The crowd is going wild.”
“Papa is the best!” Eri called out as she danced around with Meiko and Raphtalia.
Mt. Lady was bouncing with excitement. “I’m just glad someone muzzled the blonde pomeranian.” She joked before looking at Mitsuki. “Uh, sorry about that.”
“It's fine.” Mitsuki replied with a groan.” She pinched the bridge of her nose. “Maybe this will get him to stop being so arrogant.” Mitsuki loved her son, but his recent behavior had been making her very concerned. She kept reaching out and he kept pushing her away. “I’m worried.”
Inko walked over and pulled her best friend into a hug. “You are a good Mom.” She told Mitsuki. “All you can do is be there for him and wait for him to reach out.” Inko despised Katsuki for what the boy did to her son, but she loved Mitsuki like a sister. “Just know you are not alone. You have all of us and Toshinori now.”
Mika walked over and patted Mitsuk on the back. “How about you come have a girls night with all of us during the kids Internships.” She suggested with a gentle smile. “I know that Mona has been bragging about a spa that serves drinks.”
“It will be fun.” Mona said grinning ear to ear. “I got the other to agree already.” She gave Inko a playful wink. “You can help us work on our plans for Izuku's future weddings some more.’
“Sounds good to me.” Mituski replied with a big smile. “Hopefully this day ends without too much drama.”
Ryukyu shook her head. “The day is just beginning. “ She said, watching the student approach the 2nd obstacle. “We’ll just have to play it by ear.”
Dulcea was keeping an eye on Izuku. “He is a good leader.” She crossed her arms and shifted her feet. “I wonder how Izuku will get through the next obstacle..”
“I'm sure he will surprise us.” Inko replied with a motherly smile. She looked at her phone and frowned at the message from Nezu. That pit in her stomach started to grow larger. ‘Of course, he would come back to Japan now of all times.’ She fumes in her head. ‘I hope we don't bump into each other.’
“The students are approaching the Second obstacle! The Fall!” Present Mic told the crowd. “Don't look down! This will test our students ability to adapt and improvise to cross the rope to reach the pillars!”
“The students are perfectly safe despite what you may think.” Vlad King stated as he heard the murmuring from the crowd. “We have several teachers and Pro’s just out of sight to catch anyone who falls, but if they fall that far, a student will be disqualified.”
“Show what you got little listeners!” Present Mic cheered as he riled the crowd back up.
Second Obstacle
Izuku shook his head as she spotted several students already making their way across the tight ropes to the first group of pillars. “Thank you Shouta.” He thanked his mentor under his breath. In the early days of his training, Shouta had pushed him to learn how to balance on ropes similar to this. He watched as Setsuna floated past him with a wink and Ochako was shimiming along one of the ropes hand over hand.
Izuku made his way over to one of the empty ropes and used his staff to help balance as he crossed the rope with the extra items on his back. “Slow is fast, fast is slow.” He muttered as he reached the first pillar. He looked around to see Mei was making her way up the other side via her boots and a grappling hook attached to her belt with Donatello using something similar to get across.
“Need to keep moving..” Izuku told himself as moved onto the second rope and made his way across and let out a sigh. “One more to go.” He was about to make his way to the last rope when a loud crack echoed in the canyon below. “That can;t be good.” He turned to see a group of Gen Ed students standing over on nearby pillars as it started to collapse. “Oh Nezu you evil genius.” He heard another loud crack before another pillar started to fall. “RUN!”
Izuku made it to the rope and tried to keep going at a steady pace as he made his way across the tightrope. As he got to the end he jumped the last few feet and landed on solid ground. He turned back to see Hitoshi was almost to the end as the pillar connected to the rope he was on started to crumple. “JUMP!” He held out his staff to help his friend.
Hitoshi jumped and grabbed the staff as the rope fell out from underneath him. “Shit!’ He swore as he was pulled to solid ground. “Thanks man.”
“No problem.” Izuku replied, patting his friend on the back. “Don't want you to miss the second round.” Izuku turned to see that others had stopped to help other students. “Seems like we are going to have some good competition.”
Hitoshi shrugged his shoulders. “Eh.” He replied looking to see another pillar starting to fall. “I already have an internship lined up, so I am not worried about it.” Hitoshi looked at his friend. “Aren’t you worried about losing first place?”
“Still have another round to prove myself.” Izuku shook his head. “Looks like we helped who we could. Time to keep moving.” Izuku turned to head towards the last obstacle. “Tell me about your internship as we run.”
Katsuki let out a massive explosion and scrambled out of the net. And took off running before he launched himself into the air and poured on the speed. “I’ll kill them all.” Katsuki growled as he took advantage of the sweat he built up from escaping the net. “I’ll make them pay for this.”
“We are now entering the final stretch of the First Event.” Vlad King told the crowd as the camera focused on the current leaders of the race. “In First place we have Pony Tsunotori with Melissa Shield right on her heels in Second and Tenya Ida creeping to take Third!”
“These three speedsters are leading the way to the finish line, but dont think it will be that easy!” Present Mic laughed as he knew what was about to happen.
Pony was doing her best to stay ahead of Melissa, but the taller girl was gaining on her. “I’m not giving up first place easily!” She called out as she summoned two more horns to increase her speed.
“I’d be insulted if you did!” Melissa hollered back beaming with joy and slowly increased One for All’s output. “I can see the last archway!”
“Don’t Count Me Out!” Tenya bellowed as he shifted gears and picked up speed. “I have the advantage on the straight away!”
Melissa bumped up her output 2% and pulled the head of Pony as she stepped through the archway. Melissa was enjoying the adrenaline rush so much that she didn't notice the discolored spot on the ground until she heard the click followed by a boom. “Ah!” Melissa cried out as she was thrown backwards by a pink explosion. “They made a minefield!”
“Seems like it!’ Pony shouted as she flew past Melissa “Catch ya -Gah!” She was interrupted as a canister came out of nowhere and knocked her out of the air when it exploded to her left. “Dammit!”
“Can't stop!” Tenya cried out as he hit a mine and was blown into the wall. “Ow.” Tenya grunted as he shook his head.
“Our leading Trio has just entered the Minefield!” Present Mic boomed as the crowd was cringing from the explosions. “Fear not folks as the mines are not dangerous. They are just powerful enough to knock the students down. They will have to find a safe path across the field with landmines, bouncing mines and sensors hidden to launch explosive canisters at those that try to fly over it.”
“Our trio needs to be quick before the others finish catching up.” Vlad King continued to explain to the audience. “Katsuki Bakugo is catching up quickly and just cleared the 2nd obstacle by flying over it. The winner for the First Event is still up for grabs.”
“Well.” Izuku said as she slowed watching his classmate gingerly walking down the trail. “I think Nezu decided to up the challenge this year.”
“What a drag.” Hitoshi groaned as he shoved his hands in his pocket. “Lead on fearless leader.”
“ Thanks .” Izuku replied sarcastically. He walked over and started studying the path. He could see Momo had created a minesweeper and was finding several mines with ease. Ibara was sending her vines underground and lifting them to the surface or triggering them. Occasionally an explosion went off when someone tried to move through the path. “Momo, Ibara.” He called out to get their attention. “Focus on the center. Momo can find the mines and Ibara can remove them to give us a path.”
“Working on it Darling.’ Momo replied, blowing him a kiss as she started pointing out mines she found before marking them with a piece of red fabric she created with her hand.
Ibara said a small prayer and started sending her finds that Momo pointed out. “It shall be done.” She replied softly.
“Everyone, cover those two and we can get through the last obstacle and race the last straight away.” Izuku informed them as he watched more of his classmates starting to arrive.
Kirishima and Tetstutetsu arrived not long after Izuku and moved to protect Momo and Ibara from the explosions.
Mei and Donatello were moving the mines to a safe location using collapsible staffs. Mei looked back and swore under her breath.
“Zuzu!” Mei cried out pointing back down the course. “Incoming blonde bomber at 6’ o'clock!”
“Copy!’ Izuku turned back to classmates. “Incoming!” He untied his jacket and wrapped the wires he grabbed earlier and tied them snugly to the metal plate as possible for a make-shift shield. “Shoto!”
“On it!” Shoto replied, stomping his foot and sending a mass of ice at Katsuki.
Katsuki let out a loud snarl and focused a blast at the ice in front of him. “Fuck off Icyhot!” The blast sent chunks of ice everywhere. “I will win!” He decided to get rid of some of the competition. He hovered in the air before seeing a pile of mines near that high-class bitch. “Die!”
Many of the students had to take cover from the falling ice and several chunks landed on mines and filled the air with dust debris and ice crystals. Izuku heard Katsuki battle cry and looked to see what he was aiming for. “Momo!” He cried out rushing over and grabbed her by the back of her jacket and threw her out of the way.
Momo was confused at first until she saw the blonde mutt with an explosion aimed at where she had been standing. “No!” She cried out as she created a canister and tossed it.
Izuku brought his makeshift shield up at the last possible second to deflect Katsuki's powerful blast towards the ground. Katsuki’s explosion set off the mines at Izuku's feet and launched him further into the field.
“Ha!” Katsuki laughed. “Get-Gahh!” A moment later a flash canister exploded in his face blinding him. “Fuck!”
“That's for the cheap shot.” Momo snarled as she watched izuku tumbling in the air. “Hurry!” She went back to the mines and the team went back to work.
Izuku pulled the shield close and pulled his feet into his chest as he tumbled uncontrollably in the air. He heard a few more explosions that launched him in two different directions. Izuku closed his eyes and held on until he felt like he was falling towards the ground. He landed on his back with a thud. “Ow.” He groaned, forcing himself to sit up. Izuku still felt more than a little dizzy as he looked to see he landed on the other side of the minefield. “Thank Katsuki.”
He stumbled back to his feet and looked to see his classmates were 3/4th the way through the minefield. He took a step towards them to help him when a familiar set of horns stabbed into the ground in front of him. “Pony?”
“Run!” Pony screamed pointing at the path behind him. “Don't let the blonde asshole get first place!”
“But-.” izuku tried to argue when he was cut off by several of his classmates.
“Go Midobro!” Kirishimi called out with a thumbs up. “You earned it!
“Better hurry!’ Melissa shouted, flicking her finger at another mine and causing it to explode from air pressure. “I’ll take it from you if you keep hesitating.”
“Run Izuku!” Kyoka screamed as ponting at him. “Take it win!”
“ZUZU!” Mei Bellowed with a bright smile on her face . “Run!”
Countless shouts from his classmates and girlfriends told him to run.
Izuku bowed his head for a moment before looking up and smiling brightly. “Thank you all!” He called back before turning and running like there was no tomorrow.
“In a shocking turn of events Izuku Midoryia takes the lead with the unintentional help from Katsuki Bakugo!” Present Mic cheered as the crowd was shocked by the sudden turn of events. “The rest of the students are nearly done with the minefield! Can Izuku hold the Lead!”
“It’s anyone's game once they clear the minefield.” Vlad King chimed in. “Melissa Shield and Pony Tsunotori were in the lead until the mines caught them off guard. They may be able to catch Izuku Midoryia before he can cross the line.”
In the Private Box
“That’s my girl” Laura bellowed as her daughter was giving it her all.
“Go Izuku!” Nana screamed with sisterly pride. “You got this!”
“I owe Izuku something very nice.” Mona said, breathing a sigh of relief. “He moved her out of the way of the attack.”
“No offense Mitsuki.” Miruko started looking at the blonde woman. “I may kick your son's ass for his attitude.” she tapped a foot in annoyance. “He could have really hurt someone.
“None taken.” Mtsuki groaned as she pinched the bridge of her nose. “He may need it to get his head out of his ass.” She watched her son rubbing his eyes from the flash grenade. “If I know his attitude lately, he insulted and challenged everyone at the same time. I don't know where I went wrong.”
“I'm sure he will snap out of it eventually.” Rei said, trying to be supportive of the woman. “Maybe it's just a phase.”
Inko was biting her bottom lip. “I’ll just be glad when this is over.” She said, glad Izuku was on the final stretch. “I just hope the next event is this stressful.”
“Doubt it Mom.” Ryukyu told her with a sympathetic smile. “That's normal when they narrow to the top 16. It's going to be even more intense.”
Dulcea patted Inko on the back. “Izuku and the girls will be fine.” She said in a supportive tone. “Let's watch the end of the race.”
Inko nodded her head and watched as the pit in her stomach grew worse.
Final Stretch.
Izuku focused on the final stretch ahead of him. He could hear the crowd cheering and several explosions behind him. He turned out the noise as best he could and focused on the finish line. He could see the massive screen in front of him and saw that Pony and Melissa were hot on his trail with half a dozen more behind them. “Just a bit further.”
Katsuki blinked after rubbing his eyes for what felt like the thousandth time. He blinked and could finally see again. He scrambled to his feet to see a clear path had been made and the rest of the extras were starting the final stretch. He launched himself forward to try and catch up with the leader. He dug deep and let out explosion after explosion to speed through the minefield. He shot past a few of the extras and had just cleared it the other side when heard that Deku was in first place. “NO!” He screamed as he poured on the speed. “I WON'T LOSE TO DEKU!”
Katsuki was gaining speed when he was forced to bank hard to avoid another glacier of ice at the last minute. “You are starting to piss me off you Fuck!” He snarled quickly, correcting his flight to keep on course to the finish line.
“You challenged all of us.” Shoto replied with a bored look on his face. “Face the consequences.”
Katsuki let out an inhuman snarl and focused his attention on Shoto.
Izuku had to force himself not to see how close Pony and Melissa were gaining on him. He could faintly hear an engine and figured Tenya was not far behind. As he reached the narrow tunnel and put everything he had into the last few yards. As he exited the tunnel, ticker tape started to fall from the sky and the crowd went wild.
“THE WINNER OF THE FIRST EVENT IS IZUKU MIDORYIA!” Present Mic Boomed with excitement.
Izuku panted as he slowed down to a walk and he started laughing as started to cool down. He turned around just in time to see Melissa enter the arena in a yellow flash with Pony on her heels. He had just enough time to react when she hopped off her horns and jumped towards him. Izuku caught her mid-air in a princess carry. “That was a bit reckless.’ He chided her slightly. “Why did you do that?”
“I knew you would catch me.” Pony replied, batting her eyelashes at him before falling into a giggling fit.
“Fair.” Izuku replied, looking over at Melissa and gave her a smile. “Nice going Melissa.” He gave her a slight smile. “You should have won. If it hadn't been for the mines, I never would have caught up.”
“Eh,” Melissa replied with a shrug. “You won fair and square.” He gave her a grin. “Hope you know that I am coming for the 1st place spot. Give it everything you got.” She held out a fist in front of him.
“Of course.” Izuku told her with a grin and completed the fist bump. “I wouldn't have it any other way.”
Izuku, Pony and Melissa heard a bunch of explosions and other noises coming from the tunnel and turned to see who was coming out next.
Momo dived out of the tunnel and rolled to the side.
Shoto followed her a moment later with Katsuki on his heels.
Mei flew out of the tunnel with Donatello power sliding on his skateboard.
Setsuna flew out of the tunnel in pieces and reassembled on the ground raising her hands up in the air before running over to Izuku's side.
Tenya skidded to a halt as smoke rose from his engines.
“We have our Top Ten Finishers ladies and gentlemen!” Midnight exclaimed as the screen changed to a new screen. “We have had a great show today from all of our students today!” She paused for a moment to let the crowd cheer on the students. “The top 60 students will move on to the 2nd event. Now, we wait for the remaining students to finish the 1st event.”
As the rest of the students started trickling in, the remaining slots started to fill up quickly. 15 minutes later, all 60 slots were filled and the stragglers were directed to stand off to the side for the time being.
“That's it Folks!” Midnight informed the crowd. “After this announcement we will take a 20 minute break to give our students a small rest and allow anyone in the top 60 to drop from the 2nd event. This may give anyone a chance to take their spot, so don't lose hope yet.” Midnight snapped her whip and pointed at the screen above her. “Here are the official results for the Top 10!”
1st Place- Izuku Midoriya
2nd Place- Melissa Shield
3rd Place- Pony Tsunotori
4th Place- Momo Yaoyorozu
5th Place- Shoto Todoroki
6th Place- Katsuki Bakugo
7th Place- Mei Hatsume
8th Place- Donatello Yoshi
9th Place- Setsuna Tokage
10 Place- Tenya Ida
“Congratulations to our Top ten for the first round!” Midnight was smiling brightly as the crowd was booming with cheering and noise. “Now, I recommend everyone take the next 20 minutes to get something to drink and catch your breath before we go into the next event.” He looked up and the screen had changed to a roulette wheel. “We will now see that the next event is so that our students can make the best decision on whether to stay in the 2nd round or bow out!”
The wheel spun faster and faster until it was a digital blur. A minute later the wheel started to slow down showing various choices for the 2nd event. When it finally stopped a trumpeting noise was sounded.
“The 2nd event will be a Battle Royale!” Midnight shouted as she turned her attention to the students. “Those that choose to participate will fight for one of 16 spots for the 3rd event.” Midnight paused for dramatic effect. “You will have to battle your classmates for those spots and it's a Free for all. Fight solo. Make teams, but there is a twist” She grinned as everyone waited for her to continue. “But that would ruin the surprise. So, In twenty minutes return to this spot to start the next round. Those who are interested in dropping out, please speak with me after this.” She blew a kiss to the crowd. “See you all in 20 minutes!”
In The Private Box
Everyone was cheering and shouting with excitement. Eri and Raphtalia were cheering for the parents at the top of their lungs.
David was sending a message to his team back on I-Island.
Toshinori was cheering for Melissa and beaming with pride with his successor.
Mitsuki cheered for her son, but was concerned about how the next event would go.
Nana, Miruko, Ryukyu, and Mt. Lady were almost deafening in their cheering for izuku taking first place. They started chanting his name and laughing.
The rest of the families were cheering for their children and grateful no one was seriously hurt.
Arena Floor
Izuku was being congratulated by Fumikage, Denki, Hitoshi, and Kirishima. When someone tapped him on the shoulder. He turned to see his girlfriends were standing behind him. “Hey girls.” He greeted them with a big smile. What can i Do for-hmph!”
Ochako moved forward and smashed her lips against his. “Congratz.” She told him with a mischievous smile.
“My turn.” Mei called out as she slipped in to steal a kiss from her boyfriend. “Congtaz Zuzu.” Mei stepped back and took out one of her inventions to tinker with to kill time.
“Dibs.” Setsuna called detaching her head and hands to give Izuku a quick kiss. “Nice going, stud.” She gave him a wink before reattaching her head and hands.
Kyoka rolled her eyes. “Nice going Izuku.” He wrapped her arms around his waist and gave him a tender kiss on the lips. “Don't scare me like that again.” She tapped his chest lightly with one of her jacks.
“No promises.” izuku mumbled as Mina bounced into place.
Mina smashed her lips against his and reached down to grab his but. “Nice job today izuku.” She told him with a wink. “I expect some cuddles later.”
Toru moved in to give Izuku a long slow kiss before pulling back. “You did good izuku.” She beamed before blowing him a kiss.
Momo gave him a predatory smile and sauntered over and grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and gave him a searing kiss before standing up straight and creating a microphone and turned to look at the stadium. “He is ours. Back off!”
Several groans and cries were heard from the female population in the audience as the realization of the cute guy with green hair was taken.
Midnight was squealing with delight for her little brother. “Such young Love!’ She squealed and bounced in place. “I approve!”
“W-What was that about?’ Izuku asked as his girlfriends encircled him. “Not that I am complaining.”
Ocahko giggled. “Just staking our claim.”
The other girls agreed and Izuku just let out a short laugh. “If it makes you all happy.”
“Let's go get some water.” Setsuna suggested. “I’m parched.”
“Agreed.” Momo said as the group started to move toward the drink table.
Stadium
“Wow.” The masked figure muttered looking over to see that the camera was still recording everything. “This was even more intense than I thought.’ The figures fingers glided over the nearby keyboard and a minute later pressed enter. “I get all three of these and I’ll be famous for having an original copy of today's Sports Festival.” They sat back down and got comfortable. “I wonder if the stories will do the next event justice.” They wanted to sneak out and get some swag, but they had already caused an issue the week before and needed to keep a low profile.
Hisahi blinked several times as he watched his son get kissed by 8 different girls. He would have to make adjustments to his plans to get izuku on his side.
“Wow. Pyria said, staring down at her half-brother. “He's popular.”
“So it seems.” Hisashi agreed with his daughter. He started to work on his contingencies depending on how Izuku performed during the 2nd event. “We can ask him about it later.” he looked over to see his wife was looking at her phone with a bored expression on her face and both of his sons were talking about the first event.
Hisahi was a patient man and would bide his time to get what he wanted and return to the US to sell his son's secrets.
Arena Floor
Katsuki cracked his knuckles as he was doing his best to keep his temper in check. Once again, Deku stole what was meant for him. He deserved to be in first place. Not Deku. He cheated by having those extras get in his way. “I’ll show them.” Katsuki growled as he watched the timer countdown. “I’ll show them all.” A Battle Royale was perfect for his Quirk. He needed to show anyone willing to send him an internship that he was the best.
The Master was enjoying the rage radiating off Katsuki. He had slowly moved the boy to the breaking point he had set the Katsuki up for. It was just a matter of time.
Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Sports Festival Part Two- 2nd Round
Summary:
The Second Round had begun and who will make it to the 3rd Round?
Things in the shadow start to take shape.
Notes:
I hope everyone enjoys this chapter. I struggled to get it I was happy with it. I will be relaxing soon for my 6th wedding anniversary with my Wife and daughter by going on a long overdue vacation after several visits to the doctor and hospitals. I will continue to write for all my Fics and hope you what I have planned for the 3rd round.
Chapter Text
Scorpina leaned against the wall of the rundown bar they used as their base to hide in plain sight amongst the humans. It was so dingy that no one ever came inside. Kurogiri was polishing a glass as the two TV’s were blaring. They were all watching the Sports Festival to study their opponents.
So far she wasn't impressed with any of the students until she saw the blonde boy with the explosion ability caught her attention. He was ruthless, brutal and underhanded. She may try to approach the kid or just take him by force and put a collar on the boy. One can never have too many minions for her various contingency plans. She also spotted the one student she had been looking for, but had schooled her expression into a one of boredom.
The usually empty bar was occupied with 6 other people drinking and watching the screen. Scorpina couldn't help but grin that after years of waiting plotting, her team was finally complete.
The first one she looked at was a young man in his mid-twenties. His jet black hair contrasted his pale skin and stitches that covered his face and hands. His name was Dabi and he had volunteered for the good doctor to be a test subject. He wore a black bodysuit with a red vest around his chest. His body had been enhanced to withstand his flames and was seeing the doctor for weekly visits for skin grafts. His quirk Cremation would be very handy in the future.
The next member was Orochi. The disgraced heir was taken at the same time as another member of her team. He had gone from a skinny runt to a towering figure with a muscular body. He had shaved his head and wore a similar Black bodysuit, but the sleeves were cut off to show his powerful arms. He could now make weapons since his Gem Creation had evolved in the process. He was still a creep with the female prisoners in Scorpina opinion, but he would have his uses against the Rangers or she would kill him and look for a better replacement.
Off in the corner, Neito was scowling at Orochi with a furious look on his face. He had fallen in line since his abduction and had taken his role to guard the prisoners seriously. More than one fight had broken out between Neito and Orochi about the female captives. Neito was fiercely protective of them. Nieto’s Copy had evolved to allow him to copy more Quirks at the same time and for longer durations. He wore his black suit and a dark blue vest.
Fumiki or Dazzler as she preferred to go by now, was lounging in one of the chairs with her feet on the table. She had embraced the change after she lost everything from her meltdown. Her hair was darker blonde with black highlights and the woman wore yellow and black lipstick and heavy eye liner around her eyes. Her Fireworks Quirk had grown to act like a flashy grenade with a large blast area. She had sewn some gold strips onto her yellow vest and bodysuit to make it ‘pop' in the sunlight.
Astronoma was sitting at the table with a bored expression on her face. Her long purple hair was pulled back into a tight braid and had her diamond shaped spear in arms reach. The Himiko clone had refused to wear her pink vest over her armored bodysuit until Scorpina ordered her to do so. Transform was able to last longer on smaller amounts of blood and made her a natural infiltrator. Astronoma was sipping some newly acquired blood with great pleasure from a wine glass.
The last member of her team was one of her proudest achievements. Tomura, her loyal pet, was sitting in a chair beside her. Tomura had grown a lot since their meeting before the USJ. He was becoming quite skilled with his Sword of Darkness and after a visit to the doctor, his face was no longer dry and cracked. The thin man had put on a lot of muscles and his long hair was cut short to a buzz cut. He wore a similar outfit to the other members of the team with a Green vest, but his sword resting in a custom made sheath on his back. Scorpina had not allowed him to get his quirk back from All for One yet.
Scorpina smiled as her plans were moving according to plan and soon, Japan would fall to its knees first, then the world.
“Can we watch something else?” Orochi grumbled throwing darts made of black gems into the wall out of boredom. “Or at least let me play with the prisoners.” He gave a dark chuckle at Neito. “I'm sure they will be happy to see me.”
“Back off.” Neito warned him as he tensed up ready for a fight. “I won't hesitate to kick your ass Orochi.” He let out a low growl. “I’m not afraid to fight, you sick bastard.”
“It's not my fault you've got a soft spot for them.” Orochi taunted back and flexed his arms. “I need a playmate to keep me from getting bored.”
“Pig.” Dazzler spat as she was using a file to sharpen her long fingernails. “Come near me and I will castrate you.”
“I’ll just kill him.” Astronema said in a bored voice. “We need a better candidate than this pervert.”
Dabi took a swig of his drink. “Can you all stop bitching?” He barked at them. “I am trying to watch this.” He rolled his eyes and went back to watching the Sports Festival.
“Remember.” Tomura growled at the screen. “I’m the only one allowed to kill Izuku.” He clenched his fist as he remembered his humiliating defeat.
The rest of the room groaned as they had heard this repeatedly.
“Whatever.” Dabi snapped again. “Just shut up. We don't care anymore. You’re just a pet to our Mistress. You are not the boss of us.”
“Want to say that again.” Tomura snarled, getting to his feet and reaching for his sword. “I am the leader of this team.”
Scorpina grabbed his arm and shot him a look. “Enough.” She commanded. “Watch the festival. Study the enemy. So when we attack them, we will be able to wipe them out.”
Yes, Mistress.” They answered together Tomura and Dabi started each other down a few seconds before looking away.
Scorpina was about to say more when Toxica appeared at her side. “What?” She asked tersely. “This better be important.”
“Nero is attempting to flee the country.” Toxica reported with a low bow. “I wanted to inform you before he could escape.”
“I want you and Jendrax to capture him.” Scorpina ordered with a cruel smile on her face. “Do it quietly, but if he resists, feel free to break his legs.”
“It shall be done, Mistress.” Toxica replied before quickly leaving the room.
“Any more fighting amongst each other and there will be consequences.” She warned everyone in the room. “Our time grows short before we act and I won't let infighting screw it up. Am. I. Clear?” She let her power radiate through the room to emphasize her point.
“Yes Mistress.” The room answered in unison.”
Good.” Scorpina preened walking over and picking up a glass of wine from the bar before walking back to sit on Tomura’s lap. Scorpina had easily bent him to her will and now she was going to enjoy it while it lasted.
All that was left to do was watch and see what their opponents were capable of. That way, Scorpina knew just how to break them.
Izuku finished the last of his water as he looked around to see who was still in the running for the second event. “Is anyone dropping out besides Hitoshi?” He asked, looking at his group of friends.
“Come on Hitoshi.” Kirishima said with a big smile. “This is going to be epic! We can make it fun!”
Hitoshi rolled his eyes. “I’m good.” He said taking a sip of water. “I have my internship lined up and I'm not looking to be in the spotlight like you guys.” Hitoshi replaced his cap on his water. “No point in taking someone else's spot that could get them noticed for an internship.”
Kyoka tossed her bottle in the trash. “I’m bowing out too.” She said with a shrug. “I have my live concert in a few days and I don't want to take a chance of getting injured before that.” She smirked a little. “I also have my internship already set up. Mrs. Forger will be training me that week.”
“Koda bowed out.” Itsuka added while sipping on her water. “He isn't a big fan of fighting.”
“He’s a sweetheart.” Mina cooed while playing with her water bottle. “He is so nice to everyone. I don't blame him.” she was balancing the empty bottle on her finger tips.
“Especially since Katsuki will be out for blood.” Izuku told them with a sigh. “I’d stay clear of me when it starts. “I’m pretty sure that I will be his main target.”
“Fat chance.” Ochako snorted. “I am not going to leave you alone to deal with that douchebag. I’ve been looking for a chance to punch him in the face.” Ochako punched her fist into her palm to make her point.
“I'm sure there is a line forming for that particular honor.” Fumikage chimed in, crossing his arms. “He has made a lot of enemies today.”
“Mess him up.” Dark Showed said, festing his head on Fumikage’s shoulder. “Show him what happens when you look down on people.”
“Well said.” Momo giggled. “I wonder what the twist is going to be?” She asked, looking at Izuku. “Did the Principal give you any hints?”
“No,” Izuku replied with a shake of his head. “I wouldn't want any special treatment anyway.”
Toru wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his shoulder. “You are too noble for this world.” She said, placing a kiss on his cheek.
“Almost time for us to head back to Midnight.” Denki said, taking Ibara’s empty bottle and tossing it in the trash. “Should we head that way?”
“We should before she disqualifies us.” Shoto gestured to Katsuki stomping to the field. “He is about to lose it.”
“Just stay clear of him if you can.” Izuku suggested as he followed his girlfriends and friends to the staging area. “Hopefully someone can knock him out this round before things get bloody.”
“I have a bad feeling about this.” Setsuna grumbled as she fell in step beside Izuku.
As the students gathered around the podium, Midnight returned to the microphone and was smiling brightly. “I want to congratulate all of you for making it this far today.” She started clapping and got the crowd to join in. “Now, This is when things are going to get rough.” She gestured to the students standing in front of her. “Out of the 60 of you that are here right now, only 16 may move onto the 3rd and final round of the day!”
There was a low muttering in the crowd as the students looked around as the tension started to grow.
Katsuki was gritting his teeth to keep from letting off a tiny explosion.
“Now, as it was explained to you before the break. This will be a Battle Royale, Give it everything you got to prove you deserve to earn one of the limited 16 open slots.” Midnight smiled at the crowd. “If you look up at the screen, that will be your arena!”
The massive screen changed to reveal what looked to be a large town with buildings, streetlights and various vehicles. The camera panned around to give all the students and spectators a good look at the city.
“You will have 15 minutes to eliminate your competition during the 2nd Event.” Midnight explained as the students started to get antsy. “Form teams, fight solo, it's all up to you how you want to secure your place in the finals.” Midnight snapped her whip. “But, 5 minutes after the start of the event, something fun will start happening.” She started to laugh.
“I have a bad feeling about this now.” Mina muttered under her breath.
Momo nodded her head. “Me too.”
“Ominous.” Fumikage said, sensing slightly tensing up.
“Oh, one more thing.” Midnight’s smile became a mischievous grin. “I should tell you that there are actually two twists.” She held up a finger. “The first one does take place after the start of the event. Like I said before” Midnight held up a second finger. “The other is that you all will start at random locations at the Second Event.”
The students looked confused before groups of people started getting teleported out in groups.
“Surprise!”
Zone 1
Izuku looked around to see he had been teleported into the arena surrounded by Tsu, Setsuna, Donatello, Melty, Ojiro, Bondo, Reiko, and two students from the GE class. “Well, that was different.” He joked glancing at the others standing around him.
“I apologize for this.” Melty said, moving several steps back from the group and summoned the water from the containers on her waist into orbs in her hands. “But I will be moving onto the next round. Nothing personal Izuku.”
“Back off.” Setsuna growled, moving to step in front of the business student. “You want Izuku, you have to go through me.” She split her body in dozens of pieces and started hovering in the air.
“Gladly.” Melty replied before sending several blasts of water at Setsuna. The business student was confused when her attacks went wide and burst on the ground.
“I cannot allow you to attack my cousin.” Reiko said softly as she held a hand out in front of her. “You are outnumbered here.”
Melty recalled the water to her hand and took a defensive stance. “As I said before.” She said in a calm voice. “It is nothing personal, but I will be making it to the next round. I will take the open slot for the Hero Course.”
Ojiro stepped in front of Izuku. “I will not back down.” He said, pointing a finger at Izuku. “Fight me. Please.” He gave Izuku a respectful bow. “I have been wanting to face you for a while now.”
Izuku nodded his head. “It would be my honor Ojiro.” Izuku gave him a smile. “I won't go easy on you.”
“I was going to say the same thing.” Ojiro replied with a matching grin.
“Kero. I call next.” Tsu ribbeted as she jumped to intercept one of the Gen Ed students trying to ambush Izuku from behind with a flying kick. “Not nice.”
“I need this!’ The Gen Ed Student grunted as he got back to his feet. “He doesn't deserve to be here!”
“Yeah!” the other Gen Ed student shouted in agreement. “It's not fair that the Principal’s pet is getting special treatment!” The boy was about to run towards Izuku when they were hit with several strings of glue-like substances. “Let me go!”
“Not if you're going to be rude.” Bondo said in an annoyed voice. “You two are done.” He turned to look at Tsu. “I would be honored to face you.”
“Works for me. Kero.” Tsu said, preparing to leap at her opponent.
“I can wait.” Donatello said, pulling out one of his gadgets to fiddle with. “No rush.”
Area 2
Pony looked around and was sad to see that she would not get to fight beside Izuku like she wanted. She spotted several familiar faces around her though. She spotted Kinoko, Leonardo, Ochako, Mina, Shoji, Shishida, Kaibara and two Gen Ed students. “Guess we should get this over with.” She said, cracking her knuckles. “I plan on making it to the next round with Izuku.”
“Not unless I beat you first.” Ochako said, smirking at Pony. “I have a bet with Izuku about winning the whole festival.”
Pony gave Ochako a big smile. “Bring it, space girl!” She said in English and let her Texan accent seep into her words.
Ochako ran forward.
Mina started skating around on her acid when she spotted the Gen Ed students running at Kinoko. “Nuh-uh.” She said spraying the area in front of the mushroom girl with slippery acid. “Not nice to pick on someone like that.”
“Thanks.” Kinoko said with a sigh of relief. “That was really shrooming close.”
“I got your back girl.” Mina replied with a wink. “Let's drop these guys before the others come after us.”
Shoji and Shishida shared a look with one and nodded at one another before running at each other.
Kaibara looked around to see Leonardo was waiting patiently. “Are you up for a fight?” Kaibara asked the turtle as he started spinning his fingers one by one.
“Sure.” Leonard replied with a polite nod and sifted into his fighting stance.
Area 3
Ibara let out a sigh of relief when she spotted Denki nearby along with Raphael, Kirishima, and Kamakiri. She frowned as the other 5 people that arrived were Gen Ed Students and they started moving closer to one another and whispering to one another. “It seems they have decided to work together to eliminate us.” She said, gesturing to the opposing group.
Raphael scoffed and punched his fist. “Let em try.” He said with an almost evil smile. “It’s been awhile since I have cut loose.” He glanced over to Kirishima. “Are you good with that man?”
“I’m down.” Kirishima said, popping his knuckles one by one. “They did say we could form teams.”
Kamakiri sighed. “Wish we were facing bots.” He grumbled, crossing his arms. “I can’t go all out with my blades.” He grew two blades out of his forearms. “Even blunt these are dangerous.”
“I am sure that you will be careful.” Ibara told her classmate calmly. “Denki, I will handle the ranged attacks, can you keep them off of me?”
“Of course.” He replied with a big smile. “They don't stand a chance.” He held his hand together and let some electricity move between his fingers.
Area 4
Momo created a staff as soon as she landed and scanned the area to see her classmates from 1-AB. Jennika, Michaelangelo, Toru, Melissa, Fumikage, Rin, Awase, Nirengeki, and Tsuburaba. “It looks like just our class that arrived here.” She said taking a set back and reading her staff.
“I’m sure we can be just like chill man.” Micheallanglo said with a laugh. “I mean do we really have to fight each other??”
“Yes.” Jennika said with a sigh. “We need to do well for an internship.” She glanced over to Momo. “You seem like a skilled warrior.”
“Come and get me.” Momo said with a confident smile.
Michelangelo was about to say something when he caught some movement in the corner of his eye. “Whoa!” he cried out and rolled out of the way to see Toru starting to circle him. “Not cool.”
“Sorry.” Toru said, pulling her hair into a tight ponytail. “I want to make it to the next round.” She took a step towards Michaleelango before disappearing completely.
“Come on!” Michelangelo whined.
Melissa was watching the other pair off against each other. She spotted Rin and Awase squaring off as Tsuburaba lunged towards Niengeki. She spots Fumikage slowly saunting over to stand across from her. “Are you ready, Fumikage?” She asked her classmate as she let yellow lighting arc over her body.
Fumikage and Dark Shadow nodded their heads. “It would be my honor.” Fumiakge said, allowing his shadow to circle him.
“We won't run away!” Dark Shadow said, puffing himself up a bit.
Area 5
Shoto had to suppress a shiver after being teleported. He saw Tenya, Yui, Kendo, and Mei moving around one another as a group of 5 GE students started moving closer together to talk to each other with looks of determination. “Good.” He said with a sigh. “I don't have to fight Reiko.” He said, shoving his hands into his pockets.
“Same with Zuzu.” Mei said, grabbing a gadget from her belt. “I don't think they like me.” She said pointing to the dirty looks being set her way.
“I don't know if they like any of us Mei.” Ituska told the support student while stretching out her arms and legs. “They want to be in the Hero course and we are standing in their way.”
“I’m sure they just want a good, clean fight.” Tenya said, adjusting his glasses. “This is a competition after all.”
Yui just glared at them and crossed her arms.
“Give us the support girl and we'll leave the rest of you alone.” One of the Gen Ed girls shouted pointing at Mei. “She doesn't belong here. She is not even trying for the Hero Course!”
Itsuka rolled her eyes. “Back off.” She warned them with a stern look. “She is protected by us.” She dropped into her fighting stance.
“Figures.” The girl scoffed before pointing . “Watch out for the guys with split hair.” She then gestured to Tenya and Itsuka. “They are no threat. Take out of those two and the support girl is unprotected.
“I'd think you better rethink your plan.” Shoto warned removing his hands from his pocket. “This won't end the way you think it will.”
The Gen Ed Girl leading her fellow students pointed at the Hero Students. “Get them!” She ordered and led the charge.
Area 6
Katsuki snarled as he looked around to his new surroundings. “Damn.” He swore looking disappointed. “No Deku.” He spit in the ground. “I was hoping to face a real opponent. Not you worthless extras.”
Tetsutetsu, Sero, Honenuki, Manga, Kuroiro, Aoyama and 3 Gen Ed students all glared at Katsuki with looks of anger and disgust.
“Dude.” Tetsutetsu said activating his Quirk and turning skin into steel. “We are so tired of your attitude.” His hands made a metallic clang when he brought them together. “Time to knock you down a peg.”
Sero readied his elbows. “Same dude.” He said, narrowing his eyes at the blonde. “I say we teach him a lesson.”
Manga took a ready stance. “We will knock him out of this event.” The boy said prepared to make an attack. “Then we can worry about our spots in the 3rd round.
“Oui.” Aoyama said, narrowing his eyes at Bakugo. “He has been incredibly rude to my culture.”
Honenuki knelt down to touch the floor. “I think it's time to teach him a lesson.” He growled and prepared to let the prick sink into the ground with his Quirk Softening.
“Asshole.” Kuroiro scoffed and stepped into Honenuki's shadow before disappearing.
Only one of the Gen Ed Students did not rush to charge at the blonde. The girl crossed her arms and studied the fight.
Katsuki cracked his neck as his opponents ran towards him. He let off several small pops in his hands before narrowing his eyes. “I guess I could use a warm up.” He said in a bored tone. “Then, I can hunt for that coward Deku.”
“What a great start to the 2nd Event!” Midnight explained as the crowd cheered louder than before. “Only a few more minutes before the next twist!” She snapped her whip and pointed back up to the screen.
Area 1
Izuku dropped under Ojiro's powerful tail and rolled back to his feet before trying to move in to land an attack on his opponent. “You're good.” Izuku told Ojirio as he was forced to duck under another tail swipe. “Definitely making it hard for me to get close.”
“Thanks.” Ojiro replied, moving quickly to try to land several quick jabs. “Sorry it came to this, but I want to earn my sport in the finals.” He managed to land a blow on Izuku's shoulder, but avoided the rest of his attacks.
Izuku nodded his head in approval. “I’ll make sure to give you a good fight then.” Izuku replied, twisting out of the way of his opponent's tail and landed a kick to Ojiro’s leg causing him to stumble.
“Nice kick.” Ojiro compliment as he regained his footing. “Hope you can keep this up.”
Izuku bounded on the balls of his feet. “I can do this all day.” He joked before moving in for another attack.
Setsuna and Reiko were trying to overwhelm the rich girl and knock her out of the 2nd event. “Just keep on the pressure.” She told Reiko as she sent a detached hand past Melty’s guard and landed a blow to the girl's stomach.
Reiko reached out with her Quirk and grabbed Melty by the ankle and pulled hard to make the business student stumble backwards and fall to the ground. “Just a bit more.” She said in agreement.
Melty glared at the two girls as she scrambled back to her feet and studied her opponents. She was waiting for the right time to use her trump card, but she had to be patient for now. “Just let me capture you both and this can all be over.”
“Nope.” Setsuna replied, floating around Melty and sending a large barrage of detached body parts at her opponent.
“"I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request.” Reiko told the blue haired girl. She glanced over to see Setsuna's confused expression. “It means no.”
“Oh.” Setsuna replied, continuing to attack Melty from all sides. “Just say that next time.”
Bondo was doing his best to keep track of Tsu as she jumped around him and disappeared into his blind spots. “You’re very agile Tsu.” He said sending out several more stands of glue to try and capture the leaping frog Girl. “But, you won't be able to avoid my glue for long.”
“You are keeping me on the move. Kero.” Tsu replied, spinning in the air to evade the strands of glue. “It’s sad we have to fight each other.”
“I agree.” Bondo said, nodding his head.
Donatello was lost in a gadget while waiting for someone to be free. “Just a bit more.” He muttered, sticking tongue out as he worked.
Area 2
Pony grunted as she blocked Ochako’s kick. “Gotta be quicker than that.” She taunted the gravity girl and launched a volley of horns. “Not going to let you use your Quirk on me!”
“Drat.” Ochako muttered as she jumped back and dived out of the way of Pony’s horns. “I’ll get you one way or another.” She just needed to get closer to touch Pony with her hand to send her floating, but she knows that Ponys is stronger than she looks. She was waiting for an opening to rush in.
“Well see.” Pony replied, keeping an eye on Ochako’s hands. She knew that if the gravity managed to touch her, then the fight would be alot harder until Ochako was forced to release her quirk. “Too bad Bakugo is not here.” She launched another volley of horns at Ochako.
Ochako removed her gravity and jumped to evade Pony’s horns. “I know.” She grunted while touching her fingers together to drop back to the ground. “Maybe I can hunt him down later.”
“Have to beat me first!” Pony shouted as she hopped on a pair of horns to fly around Ochako. “Or do you want to forfeit?”
Ochako's eyes seemed to burn brighter. “YOU'RE ON!” Ochako shouted back as she dashed towards Pony.
Mina and Kinoko made quick work of the Gen Ed Students with Mina coating them in sticky slime and Kiniko covering them with mushrooms.
“Well that was fun.” Mina said, jumping from foot to foot.
“Shroom.” Kinoko said before taking a deep breath. “Now what?” She looked around to everyone else in the group was still fighting someone.
“Guess we have to fight.” Mina said with a shrug. “At least it will be a fair fight instead of an ambush.” She studied the mushroom girl for a moment. “If you want to drop out, no one will think less of you.”
Kinoko took a deep breath and gave Mina a determined look. “No.” She said moving back to give herself some room. “I will fight like everyone else.”
Mina nodded her head. “I can respect that.” She said letting acid pool at her feet. “GIve me your best shot.”
“You got it!” Kinoko replied with a smirk.
Shoji and Shishida were having their own knock down drag out brawl. Both boys were giving it their all.
Shishida let out a roar and tried to overpower Shoji with Beast activated, he was stronger and his senses were enhanced to a greater level. He knew that Shoji was the strongest of the two of them, but Shishida was faster and was using that to his advantage.
Shoji grew two additional sets of arms and used two of them to grab Shishida’s arms and use the last set to send in repeated jabs and punches. “Octoblow!” He said landing blow after blow to Shishida’s midsection.
Shishida grunted as he managed to slip out of Shoji’s grip with a quick headbutt and jumped back. “Try and keep up octo-boy.” He said before disappearing in a burst of speed.
Shoji shook his head and created several more arms and dropped into a crouch. “Bring it.” He growled.
Kaibara was panting as he glared at his opponent who was just standing calm and unmoving. “How are you doing that?” He activated Gyrate on both of his arms again and rushed at the turtle again.
Leonardo waited until the last moment and redirected his opponents' attacks away from himself and brought his knee up to Kaibara's stomach. “You’ve got skill.” Leonard said as Kiabara stumbled back. “You won't beat me with head on attacks. Just ask my brothers.”
Kaibara nodded his head and smiled at his opponent. “Sounds like you had a lot of practice then.” He said, taking a few steps to his right.
“Just a bit.” Leonardo replied with a small smile before gesturing for him to ‘Come and get me.’
Area 3
“Are they serious?” Raphael asked as he punched one of the Gen Ed kids in the face. “This is pathetic.” He said as the kid got back to his feet growing porcupine-like quills out of his arms. “I’ve seen bums that could fight better than this.” Raphael jumped up and performed a roundhouse kick to the kid's face and his opponent crumbled back to the ground.
“Well they are Gen Ed students.” Kirishima said as he hardened his body to absorb the attempt to kick him from a girl smoke for hair. “They are just giving it their best shot.” Kirishima sent a quick jab into her stomach and made the girl fall to the ground trying not to throw up.
“Disappointing.” Kamikiri agreed with Raphael as a student with a pair of gauntlets attempting to fight him. “They didn’t take this seriously.” Kamikiri said, blocking his attacker with his dull blades and before headbutting the student in the face and sending them sprawling to the floor.
“Rapahel glanced over to see Denki and Ibara facing off against the last two. “Should we help them?” He asked, crossing his arms.
“Nah.” Kamikiri replied with a smirk. “Let the love birds have their fun.”
“What do we do now?” Kirishima asked, punching his hand. “Who fights who?”
Raphael, Kirishima, and Kamikiri shared a look before each of them held a fist. “One, Two, Three, Shoot!” They said at the same time.
It was a draw.
“Again! One, Two, Three, Shoot!”
“On your left!” Ibara called out as she created a wall of vines to block one of the Gen Ed students sending laser beams from their eyes. Her vines were starting to smoke from the heat.
Denki ducked under the other attacking student that was breathing streams of white fire and grabbed the students by the ankle. “Tazer!’ He shouted before sending a jolt of electricity through the students body. Thanks to all the training for the festival, he was able to stun people with his electricity and not short himself out.
Ibara narrowed her eyes as she sent a tendril of vines out to attack her opponent. As she suspected, the student started focusing on the vines moving towards him and watched until the boy had to blink. Ibara unleashed another wave of vines that wrapped the students from head to toe and forced him to look up to the sky. “You did well.” Ibara said politely. “Learn to master your Quirk and I look forward to facing you at next year's Sports Festival.
“Nice job Ibara.” Denki said, getting back to his feet. “You were amazing.” He smiled brightly at her.
Ibara could help but smile. “As were you, Denki.” She said, patting his cheek. “We can flirt later, we need to complete this event.”
“I think they beat us to it.” Denki gestured over to see their three classmates in the middle of a 3-way brawl. “Guess we can wait for the winner.”
Ibara nodded her head and crossed her arms. “So it seems.” She mused looking at the time remaining.
Area 4
Momo leapt back to avoid Jennika’s flurry of punches and kicks. “You’re very good.” She told the female turtle as she used her staff to keep Jennika from getting in too close. “I’m honored to face you!” Momo created a couple of canisters and let them fall to the ground.
Jennika jumped back as they turned out to be flash bangs. “As are you Momo.” Jennika was already moving back to keep up the pressure on her opponent. “You are a worthy opponent.” Jennika jumped over Momo and landed a kick to the heiress's back causing the staff to drop to the floor. “I won't hold back.”
Momo created a pair of tonfa’s and took a defensive stance. “I would be offended if you did.” She retorted with a smirk.
“Ow!” Michelangelo cried out as another invisible punch landed on his face. “Like not fair dudette!” He yelped again with a foot connected to his stomach.
“You want fair? Go to a baseball game!” Toru sasses as she sweeps Michelangelo's feet out from under him. “You could just surrender and it all stops!” Toru moved away to keep her opponent confused.
Michelangelo groaned as he got back to his feet. “Like can't we just talk this out? OW!” He shouted when one of Toru’s kicks connected to his right inner thigh. “Ok. No more Mr. Nice Turtle.” He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His sensei had trained all of them to use their senses. Michelangelo took a few more hits before he heard Toru coming at him from he left. “Gotcha!’ he shouted and punched at his invisible opponent.
“OW!” Toru exclaimed, reappearing in front of Michelangelo a moment later clutching her chest. “You punched me in the boob!” She growled as her skin shifted to a dark red. Her tail was curled tightly as she glowered at Michelangelo.
“I-uh I mean.” Michelangelo stuttered suddenly feeling a chill run down his spine. “I’m sorry?” He raised his hands in a placating manner and took a step back. “It was an accident! You were invisible!” Michelangelo heard the crowd go ‘oooh and he knew he was in trouble.
Toru disappeared again and before Michelangelo could try to calm her down. The chameleon girl attacks became more frequent and hitting harder. “SUFFER!”
“OI!” Michelangelo moaned as he tried to protect his face. “Not the face! Not the face!”
Melissa blocked Dark Shadow's attack with one arm and Fumikage’s punch with the other. “Guess I need to bump things up a step.” She told her opponents before she started to overpower them. More yellow lightning arched over her body and Melissa drew her arm back.
Fumikage and Dark Shadow moved back to try and regroup. “Damn/damn. Fumikage and his Shadow said at the same time. They took off running after seeing how powerful her punches were during both the Battle Trials and USJ. Fumikage was no fool.
“Athens Smash 10%!” Melissa screamed as she threw her punch.
Fumikage dove out of the way and rolled back to his feet. He followed the path of her attack as it slammed into Tsuburaba and Niengeki. Neither of them saw the attack coming and it sent them flying. “Dark Shadow, remind me to never get on her bad side.” He told his dark half.
“Will do.” Dark Shadow said, shivering as Melissa started moving towards them.
Rin had Awase on the ropes with scales keeping his opponent at a distance. Both of them decided to move a bit further away from Melissa and Fumikage as a precaution.
Area 5
Shoto let out a sigh as two of the students trying to go after Mei were encased in ice. “Well this is dull.” He murmured as he slipped his hands into his pockets. “I’ll unfreeze you after the event.” He patted the block of ice and turned out the Gen Ed Students screaming at him.
Tenya was running around the remaining Gen Ed Students. “Surely we can settle this like respectable UA students.” He said dodging an attempt by one of them to trip him.
“We just want the tech girl!” One of them repeated and tried to get past the running Tenya.
Mei was unconcerned as she grabbed a gadget from her bag that looked like a yellow ball with pits in it and shrugged her shoulders. “I’m not afraid.” She said in a bored voice. “I need test subjects anyway. Move blue boy.” Mei tossed the ball into the group of opposing students. “Fire in the hole!”
Tenya, Shoto, Yui and Kendo dove for cover as Mei just crouched down.
When the sphere went off it launched a volley of darts that were electrically charged. The Gen Ed Students hesitated too long and the remaining three were twitching on the ground.
“Shocking.” Yui said, getting back to her feet.
Itsuka just stared at Mei before shaking her head. “Never piss off a support student.” She mused getting back to her feet. “So what now?”
Mei looked at the remaining Hero students. “I guess we'll give them a show.” Mei jumped back to her feet and grabbed something that looked like a baton of her belt and held it firmly in her hand.
Shoto shrugged. “I’ll let you four fight next.” He reached into his pocket and pulled something out and moved back a few steps. “We have time.” Shoto started playing a small flute to pass the time.
Yui shrugged and pointed at Tenya. “I’ll fight the robot.” She said, slipping her hands into her pockets. “Try not to malfunction.”
Tenya’s eye twitched. “I am not a robot.” He said, making a chopping motion with his arm. Tenya stopped when he heard giggling from Mei and Kendo. “That didn’t help my case.”
“Not at all robot boy.” Yui replied with the hint of a smile.
Tenya just sighed before revving up his engines.
Mei looked over at Itsuka. “So, are you good to face me carrot top?” She asked playfully and tapped a hidden button and her baton changed into a bo staff. “I got a few lessons from a friend.”
Itsuka rolled her eyes and then her shoulders. “I guess that I can as long as you don't have any more of those grenades.” She was not about to underestimate Mei after what she had done to the Gen Ed students.
“Nope.” Mei replied with a sly grin. “I do have some other babies to try out if you want?”
Itsuka felt a sense of dredd run down her spine. “Oh lucky me.” She muttered and enlarged her hands.
Area 6
Katsuki was a blur of motion as he set off a series of explosions from his hands. He dodged a beam of light by flying over the attack and used his momentum to perform a spin kick. Katsuki was grinning as his foot connected to Aoyama's face and sent him hard to the ground. “Pathetic.” He growled and shot towards one of the Gen Ed Students with a shovel looking head. Katsuki dropped low and leveled a blast to the students chest and sent him flying into a building.
“Get him!” Sero shouted as he sent two strips of tape at katsuki. “We need to pin him down! He already dropped two of us!”
“Too late extra.'' Katsuki snarled as he fired off another series of explosions to let him evade the tape in mid-air by twisting his body out of the way and landed behind Sero. “Eat this!” He brought both of his hands together and caused a huge explosion behind the Tape Quirk user and sent him flying into a nearby wall.
“Got him!” Honenuki shouted as his hands touched the ground. “I've trapped his feet!”
Katsuki felt himself start to sink into the ground and launched himself into the air and hovered as best he could. “This is getting boring.” He said flying over to kick the other Gen Ed student into the softened ground.
Honenuki swore and started sinking himself into the ground when he took a flying knee to the face. He stumbled back as the floor snapped back to solid. Honenuki threw a wild punch at Katsuki, but it went wide.
Katsuki grabbed Honenuki by his jacket and threw him into the nearest building. Katsuki didn't wait for his opponent to recover before setting off an explosion that blew the other boy through the wall.
“ENOUGH!” Tetsutetsu bellowed and rushed in and landed a blow against Katsuki’s Shoulder. “THIS ENDS HERE!”
Katsuki grunted spun on his feet to let off explosion after explosion against his metal opponent. “It will take more than that to beat me!” Katsuki shouted back as he kept up his assault.
Tetsutetsu tanked each explosion and kept swinging his fists at katsuki. Several of them landed, but others went wide or glanced off Katsuki's body. “You can't beat me.” Tetsutetsu grunted “I can take everything you throw at me!”
Katsuki scoffed as he ignored the pain and started making his explosions bigger with each attack. He knew that if this extra was like shitty hair then he would run out of steam eventually. He could feel his master pride as he defeated each of his opponents.
Katsuki heard movement from behind him and caught movement on the edge of his vision. His explosions were filling the air with smoke. Katsuki saw one rushing in from the right and the other leapt out of his shadow “ENOUGH!” Katsuki screamed as he felt a surge of power and his next explosion was massive. “MEGATON BLAST!”
The area shook from the explosion and it took almost a full minute for the smoke to clear. Katsuki smirked to see the last of the extras laying on the ground groaning. “Told you extra.” He said before spitting on the ground. “Now that the trash is taken care of, I can go find Deku.”
Katsuki starts to walk away when someone clears their throat. He turned to see the one student that didn't rush him. “What the fuck do you want?” The last student was a tall girl with caramel colored skin with black chin length hair and brown eyes. She was in the standard gym uniform but had on a pair of black leather boots that went up to her knees.
“Name is Jackie Tristan.” The girl said slowly, starting to walk toward katsuki. “You’re good. I’ll give you that.” She said, clapping her hands in a mocking manner. “It must be hard to walk into your classroom with how inflated your Ego is.”
Katsuki scoffed and glowered at the girl. “Big talk from a nobody.” Katsuki said in annoyance. He started to turn away from the girl. “Piss off.” He made it two steps until a kick landed in the middle of his back and sent him stumbling to the ground.
“You really are a cocky one.” Jackie said, tapping her right foot impatiently. “You better stop looking down on me.”
Katsuki got back to his feet and sent a murderous look at the girl. “I’ll end you.” He growled and lowered himself into a crouch. “I’ll show how beneath me you are bitch.”
Jackie smirked back at him and chuckled. “So the rumors are true.” She joked and flipped Katsuki off. “You have a very loud bark for a pomeranian.”
Katsuki let out a beast-like roar before rushing at the defiant girl.
“They are off to an amazing start!” Midnight said brightly. “So far 24 students have already been eliminated! Can we get a big hand for the Students that gave it their all during the 2nd event.” She let the crowd cheer when a loud buzzer went off and Midnight started laughing. “Well, they are giving it their all, but just like I promised!” She told the crowd as the arena appeared back on the screen. “Time for the next twist to be revealed! The next 10 minutes will be very entertaining.”
Nezu watched from his office and smiled as the next part of the 2nd event was about to begin. “This is going to be so much fun.” He mused. “I should do this more often.”
Area 1
Izuku jumped over Ojiro’s tail and landed a kick to the martial artist's face. Izuku immediately rolled out of the way of the tail and quickly got back to his feet. He let out a grunt at Ojiro’s landed a kick to his stomach. “We may be at this for a while.” He blew out a breath and watched his opponent carefully.
“Time is starting to run out.”Ojiro said with a nod of his head. “It will be interesting to see who wins.” The buzzer had just gone off a moment ago and both boys took a chance to catch their breath.
Izuku was about to move when the ground started to shake. “That is not good.” He said looking around to see the other fights had stopped as the area continued to shake. Izuku watched as Tsu, Setsuna, Donatello, Melty, Ojiro, Bondo, and Reiko were looking around to see what was going on.
They heard a loud crack a moment before a 10X10 square under Bondo’s feet dropped and took him with it. A moment later a loud splash could be heard.
“You can't be serious.” Donatello said, reaching for his hoverboard out of his bag.
Izuku looked down to the hole. “It’s about a 6ft drop into the water.” He said moving back a few steps.
“ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS! You have 9 minutes and forty seconds until the end of the 2nd Event. In random intervals sections of the floor in varying sizes will drop into the water below. Only the center of the arena is safe from sudden drop. For those that do not know how to swim, have no fear! We have multiple Rescue Heroes on the scene to keep you all safe. Can I get a big hand for Thirteen, the Wild,Wild, Pussy Cats, Sirius, and Gang Orca!”
“That makes things difficult.” Donatello said as another 10 x10 section of the floor fell. “I think it's time to move.”
Melty saw that her opponents were distracted and blasted them both with her water and then formed a fist with her hand as the girls flew over the new opening and froze the water in a block of ice. “I can't stay here.” Melty said as her opponents fell through the hole into the water below before she took off running for the center of the arena
Izuku ran to the hole to see Setsuna and Reiko being pulled out of the water and into a boat by Gang Orca. “We need to move.” He said looking around at the rest of his classmates.
“Won't argue with that. Kero.” Tsu said, hopping away. “I plan on making it to the next round.”
Donatello jumped on his board and started riding away with a quick salute.
“Come Ojiro.” Izuku said starting after his other classmates.
“Right behin-Gah!” Ojiro cried out suddenly.
Izuku turned back to see a 20 x 20 section of the floor fell, taking the martial artist to the water below. “Damn.” He swore before running off to catch up with Tsu and Donatello
Area 2
Pony was using her strength to keep a hold of Ochako’s wrists to keep the brunette from touching her. “That doesn't sound good.” She said slowly punching Ochako back. “Truce until we reach the center?”
“Fine.” Ochako agreed not wanting to be taken out to the trapped floor. “We better hurry.”
Pony looked for Mina and found her skating around Kinoko. “MINA RUN FOR THE CENTER!” she shouted before she took off running with Ochako right behind her.
Mina heard Pony’s warning and was about to say something to Kinoko when the mushroom fell when the flooring beneath her dropped. “RUN!” Mina shouted as several more sections started to drop.
Leonardo rolled away from his opponent's as the floor in front of him dropped away, taking Kaibara with it. “Maybe a rematch someday.” He said before making his way to the center of the arena
Shoji and Shishida were rolling on the ground still battling for dominance. Neither of them were about to stop until the other was beaten. Shoji was starting to overpower Shishida when the floor beneath them dropped into the water.
Area 3
Ibara looked at Denki after hearing Midnight’s announcement. “I believe that it is time for us to make our leave.” She said gently, taking Denki’s hand in hers.
“What about those three?” Denki asked, pointing to the trio fighting one another.
Ibara let out a sigh. “I've got this.” She let out an ear piercing whistle that made Denki flinch. “The floor is about to start falling! You can finish this at the center where it's safe!”
Raphael, Kirishima and Kamikiri looked at one another.
“Works for me.” Kirishima said looking over his torn up track jacket. “Are you two good with that?”
“Fine.’ Rapheal grunted as he rolled his shoulders. “How bout it Kamikiri?”
Kamimiri shrugged. “Might as well.” He said with a sigh. “I want to have a good fight to advance to the final round.”
“Time to run then!’ Denki shouted as he started running with Ibara. “Last one there is a rotten egg!”
Ibara snorted.
Kirishima laughed and punched Raphael's shoulder. “Hurry up! Don't be the tortoise!” He said with a laugh.
“Ugh.” Raphael growled. “I have that story. The turtle should have ninja kicked the rabbit.” He had to jump over a 5 x 5 opening in the floor and managed to do a combat roll and got back to his feet. “Watch out!” He called over to Kamikiri.
“She wasn't kidding.” Kamikiri grunted as he jumped over another small hole in the floor. “This is insane!” He had almost caught up to Raphael when a 20 x 20 section of the floor he was running on dropped suddenly.
“RUN FASTER!” Raphael shouted and picked up the pace.
Area 4
Momo was panting as she was still on the defensive with her fight with Jennika. “Should we postpone our fight and head for safety?” Momo asked Jennika who had picked up her dropped staff and was using it very effectively.
“I’m good.” Jennika replied, sending a flurry of quick blows towards Momo. “I work well under pressure.”
“I can respect that.” Momo grunted as took a blow to her shoulder and stomach. She created a few more canisters from her stomach and let them drop to the ground. “Sorry in advance.”
Jennika rolled her eyes. “Flash bangs and smoke?” She asked, looking a bit disappointed. “You can’ beat a Ninja with those.” When the canisters started venting their smooth, Jennika started to cough and her eyes burned.
“Pepper spray.” Momo said in an apologetic tone and created a net before tossing it over Jennika. “Come find me after the festival for a rematch.” Momo started to move towards the center of the arena. “TORU! HURRY!”
“ONE MOMENT!” Toru replied to Momo as she continued to rain blows down on Michelangelo. “Have you had enough yet?’ She asked before taking a lucky punch from her opponent in the stomach. “Oof.”
“Mercy?” Michelangelo asked, taking a step back. He had his eyes closed and was using his ears to track Toru’ movements so he could defend himself.
Toru blew out a breath and started to look towards Momo. “We’ll see.” Toru said as she watched an area near Awase and Rin fall away. “Time to run!” She started running towards Momo when the floor dropped beneath her. Toru tried to jump for the closest edge, but she missed my mere inches and dropped to the water.
A moment later, Jennika and Micheallango joined her in the water.
Momo sighed and turned to make it for the safe area.
Fumikage made his way to the safe area with Melissa hot on his heels. “Any suggestions, Dark Shadow?” He asked, having to dive to the left to avoid a section in the floor that opened.
“Just Run!” Dark Shadow said, acting as a scout. “Dive Right!”
Fumikage did as his counterpart warned him as another strong burst of wind missed him. “That was close.” He murmured, having to run around a 10 x 10 hole.
“You can't run forever!” Melissa shouted as she easily jumped over the hole while keeping an eye on Fumikage.
Area 5
Shoto was already making a run for it when he spotted the group of students he had frozen earlier drop to the water below. “Time to go, everyone.” He said scanning to see if another area of the floor was about to fall.
Mei jumped back for Itsuka and activated her boots to start hovering off the ground. “So glad I wore these today.” She said moving towards Shoto. “Time to catch up with Izuku and the others!” She smiled at Itsuka. “Let's do this again soon!”
Itsuka started to make her way to the safety of the center of the ring when she looked to see Yui was still fighting with Tenya. “Yui! It's time to go!” She said, "Getting her best friend's attention.”
Yui had been negating her opponents speed with debris from her pock from the first round. “Fine.” She pouted. “Another time then Mr. Roboto.” She started running to catch up with Itsuka.
Tenya was panting as he had looked to see the large pieces of rock and looked laying all around him. Thankful he had spent time training to run without his engines or he would have crashed. “I need more agility training.” He muttered making his way through all the debris as quickly as he could. He was just about clear when the floor collapsed and dropped him into the water.
Area 6
Katsuki let out a snarl as the extra wouldn't stay down. He landed several solid explosions on her, but it just seemed to make her faster. “What the hell.” He roared missing another kick at the girl. “How are you getting faster!”
Jackie just laughed as she moved around Katsuki in a blur. “That would be telling~.” She taunted with a sing-like tone. “Big bad Katsuki cant beat little old me.” She vanished for a moment and landed three kicks to the blonde bombers back. “I heard a rumor about the horse girl that kicked your ass hard. Her name was Pony right?”
“She got lucky that’s all.” Katsuki grumbled trying to keep track of the girl. Despite what people think, He was very smart. He had to be to pass UA exams and allowed him to keep his grades near the top. Katsuki studied his opponent and noticed that her boots were shiny at the beginning of their fight. With each attack her boots got dirtier and she got faster. Katsuki also looked around to see his area was falling apart faster and faster.
“Fuck this.” He said, creating a ball of light in his hand and waited for the girl to move in for another attack. Katsuk watched her move in for another kick to her face when he caused the ball of light to explode in her face. “STUN GRENADE!” He screams as the girl’s attack missed him by a wide margin and tumbled to the ground. “Finally.” He stomped over and stood over the girl laying on the ground. “Next time don't talk so much.” Katsuki grabbed her by the throat, punched her in the face and tossed her down one of the openings. “Now, time to find that bastard Deku.” He took off into the air and headed for the center of the arena with one goal on his mind.
“We are coming up on the last 5 minutes of this event!” Midnight informed the crowd while pointing to the massive screen. “We are down to our last 20 Students and only 16 of them will move on to the next round. Who will claim those precious spots!” Midnight turned off her mic and bit her bottom lip. “Come on Izuku. You can do it.”
Center of the Arena
Izuku jumped over an opening in the floor in front of him and as soon as his feet hit the ground kept on running at full speed. He risked a glance to see his group was still behind him. It had been slow going as they had to stop or change directions as sections of the floor dropped all around them. Izuku could see a large golden circle ahead of him that Melty had just ran onto the center. “Almost there.” He called out having to change course as the floor ahead of him dropped. Donatello and Tsu were on his heels and changed course with him.
“We better hurry! Kero!” Tsu croaked as she jumped over another opening.
Donatello redirected his hoverboard to a safer course. “What evil genius came up with this?” He asked her classmates.
Nezu cackled proudly. “Why thank you.” He mused with a wide smile on his face. “DECA, remind me to send a nice gift basket to Young Donatello.”
“Affirmative Sir.” DECA replied with an amused tone.
Izuku and his group arrived at the center and let out a sigh of relief as they stopped to catch their breath. He looked around to see others approaching from different locations.
Izuku spotted Ocahko, Pony, Leonardo, and Mina making it onto the center before the flooring behind them fell into the water.
Then, he spotted Ibara using her vines to help Denki, Raphael, and Kirishima reach the golden circle.
Izuku then spotted Momo arriving with Fumikage diving for safety as Melissa arrived a moment later in a flash of yellow lightning and continued to fight him.
Shoto arrived next sliding on his ice with Itsuka, Mei, and Yui sliding to safety behind him.
“Well Looks like that's everyone.” He said looking around. “What happened to Bakugo? I was sure he would have made it here by now.”
Mei ran over and hugged Izuku tightly. “Zuzu!” She squealed. “You made it.”
“I need this.” Mina said, latching onto Izuku.
Izuku chuckled and returned the hugs. “Good to see you too Mei.” He said looking around and doing a quick head count. “Well there are 19 of us here.”
Momo nodded her head. “That means 3 of us have to be eliminated or drop out.” She said moving to stand near Izuku.
Pony pointed to Ochako. “We have a fight to finish.” She said looking at the gravity girl. “Unless you want to chicken out.”
Ochako cracked her knuckles. “Bring it on.” She replied with a confident grin. She blew Izuku a kiss before moving away to resume her fight with Pony. “Back in a few Izuku.”
Dontello looked at his brothers. “We have less than 5 minutes before this ends.” He gestured to the other students around him. “What happens if no one is eliminated by then?”
I'm sure they have something in place for it.” Ibara said slowly, extending her vines as a precaution.
Izuku was about to say something when he caught something flying towards him and pulled both Mei and Mina out of the way as an orb of water barely missed them. “Really?” He asked turning to look at Melty.
“I've come too far.” Melty said with a determined look on her face. “I wont lose my chance to make it to the 3rd round.” She recalled the orb to her hand. “Like I said early. This is nothing personal.”
The area started to become tense as Izuku took several steps away from the group while staring Melty down. “Let’s keep this fight to just you and me.’ He said taking his ready stance waved her forward. “Come and get me.”
As Melty went on the attack several other fights broke out amongst the remaining students.
Katsuki was flying high enough in the air that they could see the center of the ring and grit his teeth when he saw a group of people already there battling it out for those precious 16 slots for the 3rd round. “No.” Katsuki growled as put more power into his explosions. “I will not lose here.” Katsuki was letting his temper get the best of him and his eyes were starting to flick between theri natural red and ethereal purple. “I Will be in the 3rd round.” Katsuki scowled as he spotted Deku facing off against a girl with blue hair..”
“Show them your strength.” The Master said softly in Katsuki’s mind. “They have all been disrespecting you all day. They should fear your power. Show them that move you have been practicing and make your entrance flashy.” He poured more of his influence into the boy's mind and watched it take root deeper in the boy's mind. “If memory serves, don't all of the greatest Heroes have flashy entrances?”
Katsuki's scowl became a feral grin. “That's a brilliant Idea, Master.” He said starting to circle the area moving faster and faster with each explosion until he was a blur of yellow and blue. When he decided that there was enough sweat built up, he shot towards the ground aiming his blast at the center of the circle. “HOWITZER IMPACT!”
“HOWITZER IMPACT!”
Izuku heard the explosions overhead but had not been able to take his eyes off his opponent due to Melty’s attacks forcing him to go on the defensive. He managed to look up in time to Katsuki flying towards the ground with a feral grin on his face. “INCOMING!” He cried out and dove to the ground.
A moment later a massive explosion went off and the ground shook sending dust and debris into the air.
Izuku coughed as he got back to his feet and saw Katsuki standing in his newly formed crater in the center of the circle. “Have you lost your mind!” Izuku snapped at the blonde. “You could have killed somebody with that attack!”
“They dodged.” Katsuki shot back with a low chuckle. “Too many of us here to move on to the final round.” He started stalking towards Izuku. “I knocked out at least two with my Super Move.” Katsuki pointed a finger at izuku. “I’m gonna make sure you don't sully the next round with your quirkless filth.”
Izuku ignored the insults and scanned the area. He noted the absence of Fumikage and Yui and figured they had been caught in Katsuki’s attack and thrown into the water. “Still on about that.” He said in a bored tone.
“Have you lost your marbles!” Raphael spat as he wiped the dust from his face. “I know you had a few screws loose, but not insane!”
“He speaks the truth.” Ibara scolded Bakugo as she retracted her vines allowing Denki, Donatello, and Kendo to exit the hastily made shelter. “That was very reckless of you.”
“Fuck off plant bitch.” Katsuki spat out and flipped her off. “You too Turtle freak. This is between Deku and Me.”
“Not anymore.” Leonardo said, crossing his arms. “You attacked all of us and now, you're surrounded.”
Katsuki looked around to see that he was now surrounded by all the remaining students. “This has nothing to do with you worthless Extras.” He snarled and looked at each one of them. “I have a score to settle with Deku.”
“Not any more.” Pony said, scraping her hooves on the ground and letting out an angry snort. “I am so tired of your ego.”
“I’ll handle him.” Izuku said, trying to defuse the situation. He glanced up to see time was against them. “We have just over two minutes until the round is over.” He saw a blur moving towards Katsuki.
Katsuki smiled as he finally got his way. “Now You're all mine Dek-gahh!” He screamed as foot connected with his face and sent his face first to the ground. Katsuki recovered quickly and seethed as he looked around to see who kicked him. “You bitch.”
Ochako stood tall and glared down at her opponent. “I won't let you hurt him.” She said defiantly and cracked her knuckles. “I’ve been waiting for this.”
Katsuki spat on the ground. “You're dead.” He roared before charging and sending several explosions at the gravity girl. “Then, I destroy the fucking Deku!”
Ochako removed her gravity long enough to jump into the air to avoid the explosions before touching her finger tips together to land an axe kick to her opponent's shoulder that sent him tumbling to the ground. “You forgot that I watched you fight with Pony and Izuku.” She said, dropping into a ready stance. “I know you like big devastating attacks.” Ochako moved in to land several quick blows to the blonde's face and chest before jumping back.
Katsuki was beyond pissed. “How dare you look down on me.” He rushed in to fight Round Cheeks while keeping an eye on her hands so she couldn't touch him and use her Quirk. After being forced to dodge several of her kicks and punches, he was in a hurry to finish this. “I WILL NOT BE LOOKED DOWN ON!” Katsuki decided to use the same trick twice and formed a ball of light into his hand and held it in front of Round Cheek's face. “STUN GRENADE!”
The blinking light caught many of them off guard and momentarily blinded.
“GAAH!” Ochako cried as the light exploded in her face and caused Ochako to cover her eyes. “My eyes!” She never saw the fist that connected with her face and she felt a crack before her nose exploded in pain followed by a hard kick to her stomach that caused her to fall to the ground.
“Now, time for-.” Katsuki stopped when he saw the rest of his classmates running towards him. “Idiots.” He had to dodge several globs of acid and horns.
“One Minute Remain!” Midnight voice boomed overhead. “Time is running out.”
Izuku tried to run to Ochako's side when Katsuki flew towards him. “I’m busy Katsuki,: He said, sliding under Bakugo’s explosion and kept running towards his girlfriend. “You’re not worth my time. I’ll deal with you later.”
Katsuki attempted to attack Izuku from behind for his comment, but he was having to dodge vines from Ibara, water orbs from Melty, Ice from Todoroki, and a punch from Melissa, and two different nets from Donatello and Mei. “Why cant you all stay out of my way?” He barked out as he flew back and landed on the ground.
“Because you fight without honor.” Leonardo said, attacked Katsuki from his right and landed a punch to the face. “You decided to attack all of us and thus made us your enemies.”
Katsuki dodged a high kick from the blue turtle and grunted as another kick landed in the small of his back from behind.
“Not so cocky now huh?” Raphael said, dropping into a boxers stance. “Let’s drop this punk Leo.”
Leonardo nodded his head. “Let's do it Ralph.” He told his brother as they began attacking Katsuki from both sides.
Izuku arrived at Ochako's side and took off his jacket before ripping off a sleeve. “Ochako!” He said, kneeling in front of her. “Are you ok?”
“Izuku?’ Ochako asked, holding her bloody nose with one hand and rubbing her eyes with the other. “I can't see anything.”
“It's probably because he set it off so close to your face.” Izuku usaid in a calm voice. “I’m sure Recovery Girl can patch you up.” He gently presses his sleeve to her nose. “This should help until this is over.”
Ochako winced. “Ow.” She moaned. “Thank you Izuku.” She said, letting out a sigh. “I can't believe I let him sucker punch me like that.”
“How are your eyes?” Izuku asked, leaning in to get a better look at her eyes. “Getting any better.”
“I went from blackness to blurry.” Ochako replied, blinking her eyes several times. “I want to punch him in his face.”
“I think our classmates are taking care of that.” Izuku replied with a small laugh as he watched Katsuki struggling against Leonardo and Raphael and Momo and Pony were moving towards him as well.
Katsuki was getting annoyed with the attacking turtles. WHen the one of them attacked, the other deflected his attack and it was starting to piss him off. He spotted High Class and Horse face coming towards him and wasn't about to let them join in on the fight. He moved closer to the edge and waited to make his move. Katsuki was almost out of time and he was going to cut it close.
“We got him on the ropes Leo!” Raphael said, rushing at Bakugo with a smirk on his face. “We can kick him out of the ring.” He ran to Katsuki's left side to attack.
“Ralph Wait!'' Leonardo shouted when he saw his opponent move his hands into a new position and Leonardo took off running to help his brother.
Raphael got within range and jumped at the blonde to land another punch to his face. It was then that Rpahael realized he had been baited in for a trap.
Leonardo arrived a moment later and grabbed his brother by the arm and threw him to safety as the explosion went off.
“AP SHOT!” Katsuki screamed as he fired an explosion in the turtle's chest and launched him over the edge to the water below.
“Leo!” Raphael cried out as he glared at Bakugo. “I’m gonna mess you up.”
“TIME IS UP!” Midnight screamed into the microphone. “All Students remaining on the center platform, please standby to be brought to the main stage.”
Raphael stopped a moment before punching Bakugo in the face. “You got lucky.”
Bakugo scoffed. “Whatever.”He shot back.
The remaining 17 students vanished one by one back to the Main Stage.
Main Stage.
As soon as they arrived back in the arena, the crowd was defining and Recovery Girl was already making her way onto the stage with two medical bots carrying a stretcher behind her.
“I’ll take a look at her.” Recovery Grils said as she moved to examine Ochako. “Go stand with the other contestants.” She glanced over to see Izuku hadn’t moved an inch. “I promise to take good care of her Izuku.”
“I’ll be ok.” Ochako said softly and patted Izuku’s chest with 4 fingers. “Go.”
“I’ll be back, Ochako.” Izuku said, kissing her forehead and moving to join the other students. He took the farthest spot from his former friend to keep from punching him in the face. Pony, Mina, and Momo hugged him to offer their support and joined him in glaring at Katsuki. Izuku was having to take deep breaths to calm himself down.
“Please standby a moment as our medical team determines the eligibility of the last contestant.” Midnight informed the crowd. “Can we get another hand for all of our amazing students that managed to survive the 2nd event!”
The crowd was almost deafening as they cheered. They started to quiet down a bit as Recovery Girl approached Midnight and whispered something in her ear. Midnight nodded her head.
“Ochako Uraraka had been eliminated from the Sport Festival due to medical reasons.” Midnight started with a sad smile. “I want to congratulate her for making it this far and hope to see her again at the next year's Sports Festival!”
The crowd started clapping as Ochako was assisted onto the stretcher and was taken off the stage towards the tunnel.
“Now, before we take an hour break to allow the remaining 16 Students to rest and have lunch, we will be drawing to see who you will be fighting who in the 3rd round. As I am sure many of you know, The 3rd round will be a single elimination tournament where only one student can be crowned the winner.” Midnight looked at each student standing in front of her and gave them a wide smile. “Make a name for yourself as countless Pro Heroes and Heroines will be watching. Internships are coming up soon, so give it everything you’ve got!” She waited for the crowd to calm once again and waved Cementoss forward. “You will each draw from the box and that number will say what place you take in the Tournament. Ladies, first!”
One by one each of the girls took their turn drawing from the box.
Momo drew #14.
Melty drew #9.
Itsuka drew #16.
Mina drew #4.
Melissa drew #8.
Mei drew #6.
Tsu drew #10.
Ibara drew #12.
Pony drew #13.
“While Cementoss puts the ladies' numbers into the system, Can I get the guys to step forward and draw next.” Midnight said, waving the boys forward. “Don't be shy~ I dont bite.”
Katsuki rushed forward drew #1 “Called it.” He said with a smirk.
Kirishima drew #3. He glanced over at his friend and gave her a small smile.
Denki drew #11 before frowning.
Raphael drew #2. And grinned.
Shoto drew #7. He glanced over to see Melissa nodding at him.
Donatello drew #14. “Of course. He chuckled and looked at Mei
Izuku was the last to draw received #15.
They waited a few minutes as they input the numbers from the guys.
“Now, have a look at the screen to see our first round pairings!” Midnight said excitedly as pointed her wipe to the screen behind her.

“We will resume the Sports Festival in one hour.” Midnight informed the crowd with a playful wink. “Until then, sit back and relax. Enjoy the various stalls and vendors, but you don't want to miss the 3rd Round!”
“YEAAH!” Present Mic screamed into the mic. “It has been an amazing showing so far today for all our students here at UA!”
“Yes, they have all put on an amazing showing today and I can't not wait for the next refund of the tournament.” Vlad King added with his voice full of pride. “I think the next round is going to be one for the history books with so many amazing students.
“We will be back in a bit, folks!” Present Mic said with a laugh.
Izuku started to walk away to go check on Ochako with Momo, Pony, and Mina when Katsuki stepped in front of them to block their path. “What do you want?” Izuku asked curtly.
“You better make the final round.” Katsuki said, pointing a finger at Izuku's face. “I have come too far to prove that I am will be the future #1 Hero in all of Japan. I will crush you in front of everyone to prove it.” He narrowed his eyes at Izuku. “You better not let one of the worthless extra beat you. That honor belongs to me.”
“Whatever.” Izuku replied with a shrug of his shoulders. “Who knows, if I will even make it past the first or second round. Itsuka is a skilled fighter and then if I beat Itsuka, I will have to face Momo or Pony and they are both tough opponents.” Izuku then pointed to Mina. “You could face Mina in your second round and she could eliminate you.”
Mina flushed a lilac at her boyfriend's words. “Izuku.” She whined before latching on his arm. “Stop, you're making me blush.”
“Aw thanks Izuku.” Pony said with a giggle.
Momo leaned in to kiss Izuku on the cheek. “Thank you darling for the vote on confidence.” SHe cooed before returning to glare at Bakugo
Katsuki scoffed in disgust..
“But, if I do make it to the finals, Katsuki.” Izuku said, taking a step closer to his former tormenter. “If we face off in the finals, I will make you pay for what you did to Ochako.” He fixed the blonde with a stern look. “I hoped when you lost to me in the battle trials and when you lost to Pony during the special event, that it would make you realize you get a reality check..” Izuku just shook his head. “I was wrong.” Izuku started to walk around Katsuki. “If you will excuse me, I have better things to do then talk to you.”
Katsuki's eyes went wide at how Deku just dismissed him like he was a nobody. He watched him leave with his bitches right behind him. Katsuki grit his teeth and stormed off to get some food and then find somewhere to start planning his first match. Katsuki planned on winning the Sports Festival and proving to everyone that he was the best. Soon everyone would know his name and he would be drowning in Internship offers. Nothing was going to get in his way.
Nothing.
Nezu sat in his office deep in thought. He had several things to occupy his mind.
First was the return of Izuku's father and his family to Japan.
The second was the arrival of Endeavor during the 2nd event. He knew the man was up to something and passed it along to Hound Dog and Lady Nagant to handle if necessary.
His current problem was Katsuki Bakugo. The boy had barely escaped expulsion with the help of the old board members and the reports he was getting from the teachers pointed out the boy was incredibly intelligent and talented in both athletics and his Quirk. But that was where the positives ended. Katsuki was still disrespectful to his fellow students and refused to work with anyone he deemed an ‘extra’. Several noted an increase in his aggression and becoming a loner amongst his peers.
Nezu leaned back in his chair and let out a deep sigh. The boy had shown so much aggression the first two events and injured several students in the 2nd event alone. He showed no mercy to his opponents and his brutality increased as the match went on.
Now, in the past, many students had been injured during the 2nd event of the Sports Festival when the Battle Royale was the 2nd event and injury counts were even higher back during All Might's and Endeavor’s time in school.The rush of adrenaline and adolescent minds can bring out the worst in humans.
Nezu picked up his phone and called Midnight.
“Yes sir?” Midnight answered quickly.
“I need to talk to you about Katsuki Bakugo participation in the 3rd Round.” Nezu informed her.

Chapter Text
Ochako fidgeted with a pair of glasses sitting on her nose and sighed. “At least these are only temporary.” She said, biting her bottom lip. Recovery Girl had been able to fix her nose with ease, but her eyes would have to be healed in stages. Recovery Girl explained that it would be a few days and another healing session for her eyes to be back to normal. “Do they look bad?” The frames were thin black with round lenses
Izuku gave Ochako a gentle smile and kissed her on the nose. “I think they look perfect on you.” He said, setting down his plate. “I think the glasses make you look cuter somehow.”
Ochako’s cheeks flushed a dark red. “Izuku.” She squeaked in embarrassment. “Stop it.”
“Ah young love.” Mt. Lady cooed as she took a bite of her lunch. “I am so proud of him.”
“Smooth bro.” Miruko snickered.
This elicited a laugh from everyone in the room. Even Izuku joined in.
After the 2nd round had ended, they went to check on Ochako and the others after they had been released from Recovery Girl’s care, Izuku got a message to bring the girl to their private box for lunch. The moment they reached the box, they were greeted by excited children and family. Toru and Setsuna were clinging to Izuku’s side as they were still recovering from the cold water they were dropped into.
Eri insisted on sitting on Ochako’s lap to make her Mama feel better while Raphtalia scrambled on Mei lap and talked excitedly about the first two events.
“Midnight said she was going to have lunch with the Wild, Wild, Pussycats and then has a short meeting before the 3rd event.” Inko informed the room and she put her phone away. “She said she would tell us about it later tonight.”
“Ominous.” Ryukyu said, taking a bite of her lunch. “I wonder if it has to do with a certain blonde. No offense Mitsuki.” She sent an apologetic look to the woman.
“None taken.” Mituski replied with a sigh. “I’m worried about what is going to happen to him. He is already on probation.” She laid her head on Toshinori's shoulder. “He was so ruthless and brutal.”
“I’ve been asked to attend the meeting as well.” Toshinori said, looking at his girlfriend. “Nezu will make the final decision.”
“I’m sure that Nezu will make the right decision.” Izuku chimed in as Eri climbed on his lap humming happily. “Have you spotted anyone in particular for an internship?” He glanced at the Pro Heroines in the room.
“I’ve spotted a few.” Ryukyu replied with a sly smile. “But I’ll keep that to myself for now.”
“Same.” Miruko said, giving Izuku a teasing smile.
“I’ll see how the 3rd event goes.” Mt. Lady added with a playful wink.
“Mean. All of you.” Izuku deadpanned as the room started to laugh.
Cathy grinned and crossed her arms. “Maybe I will send an offer while I am here.” She glanced over at Laura. “How about it boss? Are you thinking of sending one?”
Laura shrugged her shoulders. “I haven't decided yet.” She replied honestly. “I have to head back to Texas soon, but I am thinking about sending a few after watching the last two events.”
“What about you Toshi?” Mitsuki asked her boyfriend. “Are you taking an Intern this year?”
“Sadly, no.” Toshinori replied with a shake of his head. “I have an assignment with the Commission that week.”
Rei looked over at Izuku. “Did Shoto say if he would be stopping by?” She asked with a knowing smile.
“I don't think so.” Mina giggled. “After Reiko was released from Recovery Girl, they walked off hand in hand.”
“It was sweet.” Pony chimed with a short giggle. “I think they wanted some alone time before the 3rd Event. “Reiko already had a basket of food delivered to her by the time she was released.”
“Well, Izuku did give him a few tips and suggestions.” Setsuna chimed in with a toothy smile.
“I’ll tease him about it later.” Rei said with a laugh. “Thank you Izuku.”
“I was happy to help.” Izuku replied, rubbing the back of his head. “That is what family is for.”
Momo’s phone started ringing. “Wonder who is calling me?” She asked as she answered the phone. “Hello? Yes Sir. I will pass it along. Has Itsuka been informed? OK See you soon sir.” After Momo hung up the phone, she looked at the other girls in the room. “Nezu has asked for the 1-AB Girls and Mei to report to Thirteen before the start of the 3rd Round.”
Izuku nodded his head. “I guess I will see you girls later.” Izuku said as he scooped Raphtalia from Mei’s lap and placed her on his knee. “Call me if you guys need me.”
“We will keep him company.” Dulcea told the girl as she started to shoo the girls off. “You girls don't have much time.”
The girls each gave Izuku a kiss before heading out to meet Thirteen.
Izuku watched as Dulcea sat down beside him and ruffled Eri’s hair.
“Izuku.” Dulcea said, looking at her grandson. “If you have time. I’d like to teach you the way of the Ninjetti.”
“Oh.” Izuku replied leaning a bit closer to her. “Tell me more.”
Hizashi was doing his best not to scowl as he looked around to see if he could spot Izuku in the crowd of students. So far it had been a fruitless endeavor and he brought food from a couple of vendors for his family and headed back to them. He would just have to try again later. He would talk with Izuku. One way or another.
Momo led the girls towards the locker room area and spotted Itsuka leading the other girls from the class. “Did Nezu tell you what this is about?” She asked, stopping in front of the orangette. “He just told me to meet you and Thirteen here.”
“Same here.” Itsuka told her, pointing back to the small group behind her. “Wonder what this is about.”
“I can fill you all in on that.” Thirteen said, stepping out of a nearby room. “This is not mandatory for any of you, but a request for help.” Thirteen gestured for all the girls to come closer and waited until everyone could see and hear her. “As most of you know, every year we bring in professional cheerleaders for the Sport Festival.”
“Yeah.” Kyoka said, twirling a jack with her finger. “Watched my Old man get in trouble more than once for putting his foot in his mouth about them.”
“Same with my Dad.” Mina snickered at the memory of her Dad cowering in fear for calling one of the cheerleaders a ‘Hot Mama’. “What does that have to do with this request?”
Thirteen let out a large sigh. “This year's cheerleaders from the US partied too hard last night and then ate tainted food. The entire team now is suffering from food poisoning.”
“Oof.” Toru said with a wince.
Pony sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. “Please don't let them be from Texas.” She grumbled in English.
“New England actually.” Thirteen answered Pony with a chuckle. “Anyway, Nezu is wondering if you girls would like to fill in for the Americans. The Manager has spare uniforms and has someone with a Quirk that will be able to alter them to fit you perfectly.
“Y-You want us to take their place?” Kinoko asked shyly.
Thirteen nodded her head. “If you want.” She said looking at all the girls one by one. “As I said earlier, this is not mandatory. If you do not want to do this, then we will go without it this year.”
“I'll do it.” Mina said quickly and smiled brightly. “This will be fun, girls!” She gave them conspiratorial wink. “Think of what our boyfriends will think of it?”
Ochako's cheeks turned a bright pink. “I-I've never cheered before.” She said, pushing her glasses up her nose. “I-I don't want to make a fool out of myself.”
“I have never done this before.” Jennika said, looking around at her classmates. “I may require your help.”
“We can teach you.” Setsuna said, patting Ochako on the back. “Besides, I want to leave Izuku speechless.”
Melissa nodded her head. “I’m in.” She replied, crossing her arms. “I just started modeling and this will be a fun experience.”
“Count me in Kero.” Tsu said, looking over at Kinoko. “We can have a bit of fun before the 3rd round.”
Mei shrugged her shoulders. “I’m game.” She said resting her hands on her hips.
“C-Can I get a long sleeve version?” Kinoko asked quietly.
Reiko raised her hand. “I’d like to know that as well.” She said feeling her cheeks warm up.
“I am sure something can be worked out.” Thirteen replied with a curious look on our face.
“I suppose as Class president I should join the class.” Itsuka said, letting out a tired sigh.
Pony rolled her eyes. “We know you want to look nice to a certain someone.” She teased and moved out of Itsuka reach quickly.
“I will do it if we keep it family friendly.” Ibara said doing her best to keep a straight face.
Momo double checked with everyone before turning to look at Thirteen. “It looks like we are all in.” She said standing taller. “We may need to hurry before we are late.” Momo gave the girls a mischievous smile. “I think we need to repay the boys for that day in the gym.”
The girls each shared a smile and started giggling.
“Alrighty.” Thirteen said, shaking her head. “Let's get you all ready for the show.” Thirteen sent a message to Midnight. ‘Those poor boys don't have a clue what's coming.”
Midnight started cackling as she read the message. “Pixie, take a look at this.” She said showing her girlfriend the message on her phone.
Pixie-bob leaned over and stole a kiss before reading the screen. “OMG.” She said before she started snickering. “I like these girls.”
“Make sure you get their reactions on camera for me.” MIdnight told her with a playful smile. “I promise to make it worth your while.”
Pixie-Bob leaned a little closer to Midnight with a wicked grin on her face. “Oh?” She purred and licked her lips. “What are you offering?”
“Oi!” Ragdoll called out and tossed a crumpled napkin at Pixie-Bob’s face. “Not while the rest of us are eating.”
Pixie-Bob did the mature thing and stuck her tongue out at her teammate.
Tiger chuckled. “Keep it PG.” He said pointing over to an embarrassed looking Kota in the corner trying to eat his food.
Mandalay both Midnight and Pixie-Bob an annoyed look. “Can you two do that at home?” She said more than a little annoyed.
“Our bad.” Midnight replied with an apologetic look on her face. “We’ll cool it down.”
“For now.” Pixie-Bob muttered under her breath before looking at Ragdoll. “I still have dirt on you about a certain someone .”
Ragdoll fixed Pixie-Bob a stern look. “Don't. You. Dare.” She said through clenched teeth.
Mandalay just sighed. “I need a vacation.” She grumbled.
“I’ll see you all later.” Midnight told the group while getting to her feet. “I have a quick meeting before we start the next round.” She gave Pixie-Bob a wink as she left the room.
Izuku had arrived at the Student waiting area for them to start the next part of the Sports Festival. He moved to stand next to Fumikage, Hitoshi, Shoto, Denki, and Kiri. “Sup guys.” He greeted them before looking around. “I wonder when the girls are going to get back.”
“I would guess soon.” Fumikage said with a shrug. “Several of them are in the 3rd round.”
“True.” Denki agreed, nodding his head. “I wonder what's going on.” He looked around at the other guys. “Heard from them yet?”
“Nope.” Izuku answered after looking at his phone. “I’m sure that they will be here soon.”
“Hmm.” Shoto said, putting his hands in his pocket.
Hitsohi shrugged and sat down in his seat. “Whatever.” He said leaning back and getting comfortable. “I’m just glad Himiko and Camie are at the apartment with my Mom and not with the other girls.” He glanced around at the other boys. “I have a bad feeling about this.”
“I’m sure they are just helping Nezu out with something to do with the Sports Festival.” Kirishima said, crossing his arms. “I mean, what else could then be up too?”
Shoji crossed his arms. “Maybe they need help setting up something for the 3rd event.” He suggested after he created a tentacle mouth to speak with his classmates.
“Well there is Midnight.” Dark Shadow said, pointing at the R-18 Heroine. “I’m sure she is about to tell us.”
“She is about to announce the American Cheerleaders.” Kamiikiri chimed in with a laugh. “I hope they are hot like last year.”
“Oh yeah!” Sero said excitedly. “I forgot about that.” He started rubbing his hands together. “I am so excited.”
“Eh.” Hitoshi said with a shrug. “I'm happy with what I got.”
Same.” Denki added.
“Ditto.” Kirishima said with a smile.
Shoji scratched his mask covered cheek. “Itsuka and I just started dating.”
“I am happy as well.” Fumikage joined in with a nod of his head.
Shoto shrugged his shoulders. “I’m good.” He said softly.
Several of the guys glared at Izuku.
“What?” Izuku asked, looking around. “I’m very happy with my girls.”
“Some guys get all the luck.” Michelangelo jokes before laughing. “Any pretty girls for the rest of us?”
“Yeah, dream on Mikie.” Raphael said, rolling his eyes. “I'm ready to fight already.” He punched his fist with his other hand. “I can't wait to punch that jackass in his stupid face.”
“Easy Raph.” Leonardo said, placing a hand on his brother's shoulder. “Just don’t let your anger get the best of you.” He gave his brother a serious look. “Recovery Girl patched me up. I’m fine. Just remember not to lose your cool.”
“I got it Leo.” Raphael grumbled and crossed his arms. “It looks like the Teach is about to speak.”
“Ladies and gentleman.” Midnight started turning around to look at the crowd. “There has been a slight change of plans. The American Cheerleaders have come down with food poisoning and will not be able to perform for you today.
The crowd started booing loudly at not getting a show from a bunch of cheerleaders and Sero and Kamikiri joined in.
“Now, I know you are all disappointed, but we have an amazing group that has agreed to fill in for them at the last minute. ” Midnight told the crowd and waited for them to calm down before turning to face Izuku and the other boys doing her best to hide her excitement of what was about to be unleashed. “Can I get a warm welcome for the 1st year girls of UA!”
Momo and Itsuka led the other girls out of the tunnel waving pom-poms at the crowd and smiling brightly. The other girls started waving as well. Kinoko and Reiko were a bit on the shy side with Kyoka. Mei, Mina, Toru and Setsuna were having a blast and were jumping around and waving at everyone. Pony and Ochako waved but both were blushing from wearing such short skirts. Ibara was doing her best not to fidget as she waved alongside her classmates. Tsu waved as she moved to stand beside Kinoko.
“Time for the show girls.” Momo said, locking eyes with Izuku and giving him a predatory smile. “Over here girls.” As she stopped in front of the Student viewing box. “Just like we practiced girls! One ! Two! Three!”
The girls started dancing to the basic routine they had been practicing with a Manager.
In the Private Box
“Holy sh-nikeys.” Miruko caught herself as she glanced over to see Laura's jaw hit the floor.
Mt. Lady let out a low whistle. “Those girls are good.” She said covering her mouth as she watched her little brother stiffen at the cheer routine. “I think Izuku likes it.”
Ryukyu covered her mouth to suppress a giggle. “I think so too.” She agreed.
Laura almost had her face pressed to the glass staring at her daughter in shock. “What is going on?!” She asked the room without taking her eyes off Pony. “First a dress and now my baby is wearing a skirt!”
Cathay swallowed hard and took a step back from her mentor. “Must have been what Nezu needed the girls for.” She said, patting Laura on the back.
“Our Mama’s look so pretty!” Eri squealed as she started bouncing in place.
Raphtalia nodded her head excitedly beside her sister. “Yeah they are!” She agreed
“I may need to offer a few of them a job.” Mitsuki mused, tapping her chin as she took out her phone. “I need to call Uwabami to put in several internship offers.” Mitsuki had several suggestions in mind.
Toshinori was patting David on the back as he pinched the bridge of his nose. “Deep breaths David.” He said, doing his best not to watch Melissa dance in front of her boyfriend dressed as a cheerleader..
“That is my baby girl.” David said with a deep sigh. “I don't like this.” part of him wanted to run out to the field and throw a blanket over her. Only thing that stopped him was he knew Melissa would never forgive him for embarrassing her like that.
Rei and Inko smiled as they watched their sons shell shocked expressions at the girls dancing in cheerleader outfits.
“Good thing we gave them the talk.” Inko murmured to Rei with a snicker.
Rei nodded her head. “True.” She giggled. “This is getting interesting.”
Back in the student waiting area, Izuku, Denki, Shoto, Kirishima, Shoji, and Fumikage never took their eyes off their girlfriends as they danced and twirled in front of them.
Hitoshi's phone chimed and he read the message from Himiko.
Himiko: I am getting a couple of cheerleading outfits for later tonight~.
Hitoshi reached over to a nearby cooler and grabbed a bottle of water. “I blame you Izuku.” He muttered to his friend who wasn’t listening to him.
At the end of the cheer routine, the crowd was almost deafening and gave the girls a standing ovation. The girls were laughing, giggling, and hugging one another.
“That was a great show, girls!” Midnight beamed as she got the crowd to start cheering again. “Now, you girls go change and hurry back!” She snapped her whip and pointed to the big screen in front of her. “In just 10 minutes we will start the 3rd round!” She glanced up to the student viewing section. “Can I get all those involved in the final round to come to the stage please.”
Midnight approached the remaining 16 students awaiting the start of the 3rd round. “We will begin the round in just a few minutes everyone!” She called out to the crowd before turning to face her students with a serious expression on her face. "Katsuki Bakugo." She said after turning off the microphone. "President Nezu had decided that your behavior during the first two events has been a disgrace to UA standards."
Katsuki's eyes went wide in alarm. "What?" He whispered, unable to raise his voice in shock as a pit formed in his stomach. “I earned my place here. I deserve to be here.”
"Irregardless," Midnight continued. "It has been a unanimous decision from the Principal and the staff that you be-."
"Yo! Teach!” Raphael called out loud enough to cut her off. "I got a score to settle with the mutt." He crossed his arms and started down the R18 Heroine. "I don't want to advance to the next round any other way." Raphael turned to look at the blonde menace. "I want to fight to prove I earned my spot in the next round."
Midnight stepped away from the students and tapped her ear piece. "Sir." She said watching Raphael and Bakugo stare each other down. "What now?"
Nezu was silent for a long moment. "Allow for the fight to continue." He answered with a sigh. "Advice Bakugo he is on thin ice and I will stop the match if it gets out of hand."
"Will do, sir." Midnight replied and suppressed the urge to scream. She took a deep calming breath before walking back over to the waiting students.
"The fight will continue." Midnight informed the group. "Bakugo. You are on notice. Nezu is watching your fight closely. If he stops the fight, you are disqualified. Period." She narrowed her eyes. "Do you understand?"
"Crystal." Katsuki replied through clenched teeth.
Midnight nodded her head and looked at the rest of the students for the 3rd round. “All Students not participating in the 1st match, please return to the student observation area.” She watched as the other students left the stage and put on a big smile for the crowd. “Ladies and gentleman, are you ready for the final event of the day?” Midnight let the crowd cheer for a few minutes before taking control back. “You are all in for a great show!” Midnight said, smiling brightly for the crowd. “Now, I will hand this off to Present Mic!”
“Thanks Midnight! Now let's get the 3rd round started!” Present Mic bellowed and started to get the crowd amped up. “Match 1 will be the Blonde Bomber, Katsuki Bakugo Vs. The Mean Green Turtle, Raphael Yoshi!”
“It looks like it will be an interesting fight.” Vlad King added. “I have had the honor to see both of these students train for today and both are skilled fighters.”
Student Waiting Area.
Izuku took a seat near Ochako. “Thank you.” He said leaning in to kiss her cheek. “He sat down in his seat and was caught off guard Setsuna dropped onto his lap still wearing her cheerleading outfit. “You kept that?” Izuku asked, feeling his face warm up.
Setsuna leaned back to whisper in Izuku's ear. “We all kept them.” She said with a giggle.
“Aw” Mina pouted. “You need to share later. We agreed to take turns.”
“Go Ralph!” Michelangelo shouted and started hooting. “Kick some shell!”
“This is gonna be awesome.” Kirishima said, pumping in his fist.
Momo leaned back in her seat. “Do you think Raphael can take down Bakugo?” She asked while sitting down.
“I’ve seen them both fight.” Izuku started while running his fingers through Setsuna’s hair. “If He an play off Bakugo’s temper, then I think he will be about to beat him.”
“Great,” Leonardo groaned and covered his face with his hand. “Two hot heads, duking it out.”
Donatello snorted. “Match made in heaven.” He was sitting next to Mei tinkering with a gadget.
“I'm sure Ralphael can defeat him.” Jennika said from the row behind. “Bakugo has no honor when he fights.”
“But Bakugo is skilled as well.” Fumikage chimed in.
“Looks like we are about to find out.” Denki said, pointing to the ring. “Looks like Midnight is about to start the match.
Katsuki took a ready stance and waited for the match to start. He was going to send this turtle packing. “I won't lose to you.” He snarled as hated the fact he owed this extra for not being disqualified. “You can't beat me, you 3-toed freak.”
Raphael unzipped his jacket and tossed it to the ground revealing a black t-shirt underneath. He cracked his knuckles as he started Katsuki down. “I hear a lot of barking mutt.” He shot back with a feral grin. “Prove it then.”
"Begin!" Midnight shouted.
"DIE!" Katsuki bellowed and launched himself forward, leveled his left hand at the turtle's face and let off a massive explosion. "Take that!"
Boom!
“Got him.” Katsuki said smugly as he waited for the smoke to clear.
When the smoke finally cleared the audience members started to scream as a now headless turtle staggered on his feet. As smoke rose off Rapheal’s singed shirt.
“W-What?” Katsuki froze in horror as he looked over to see Midnight covering her mouth in shock. "I didn-." He was cut off when a fist connected with his face.
Raphael laughed as his head rose out of his shell and cracked his neck. "I love being a turtle." He ran forward and landed a spin kick to Katsuki's stomach and almost made the blonde land outside the ring. "I was hoping for something better ya mutt."
Katsuki let off an explosion to keep himself from falling out of the ring. "You're dead." He growled getting back to his feet.
“Oh thank god.” Toru cried, clutching her chest. “I thought Bakugo finally killed someone.”
Ibara let out a sigh of relief. “Thank the lord.” She murmured and clutched her cross in her hand.
Michelangelo. “Perk of being an awesome turtle.” He joked before Jennika slapped him upside the back of the head. “Ow!”
“Be serious.” Jennika told him in a stern voice. “Bakugo is not holding back.
Leonardo focused on his brother and started gripping the armrests tightly.
“Go Raphael!” Itsuka shouted. “Kick his butt!”
“I thought you said I was dead.” Raphael taunted as he defected a blast off his shell and brought his elbow against Bakugo temple. “I'm getting disappointed Bakugo.” Raphael jumped back and rolled out of the way of Bakugo’s Axe kick aimed at his head.
“Stand up and fight!” Bakugo snarled while sending explosion after explosion at the frustrating reptile. “Are you that afraid of me?”
Raphael scoffed at Bakugo's taunt. “Fine.” He said switching to a boxer stance and sending a quick left-right jab into Bakugo’s chest and face.
Bakugo grunted from the blows. “You are really pissing me off.” He grunted while bringing a knee up and hit Raphael's thigh to make the turtle stumble. “Stay down!” Katsuki brought up an elbow and struck his opponent in the face several times.
Raphael jumped back and dropped to tackle Katsuki to the ground. “I’ve fought tougher guys than you.” He rained several blows down on Katsuki before the blonde brought his arms up to block the blows. “I will give this fight everything I got!”
Katsuki growled and brought hand up and set off an explosion into Raphael’s chest to send his opponent flying. “I won't lose.” He said getting back to his feet. “Now, will you just die!” Katsuki cupped his hands. “AP SHOT!” He fired off several compressed shots at his opponent.
Raphael was quick on his feet and showed his acrobatic skills by flipping and dodging out of the way of each explosion. He jumped over the last explosion and tucked in his limbs to use his shell along with the momentum to slide across the ground. “Eat this” Raphael shouted as he swept Katsuki’s feet out from underneath him.
Katsuki set off a series of explosions to help him regain his footing as he watched his opponent get back to their feet. He stared the turtle down before spitting on the ground.
Raphael just smiled at the blonde and made a come and get me gesture.
Katsuki let out a roar and launched himself forward to renew their fight.
“Things are heating up!” Present Mic shouted to the crowd. “Neither one of these boys are going to go down easy.”
“Very True.” Vlad King agreed. “Bakugo has a powerful quirk, Raphael is not to be underestimated. Quirks will not always be the answer in a fight.”
“This is finally getting interesting.” Raphael grunted out as he exchanged blows with Bakugo. “I think I will have to finally fight you seriously.” He landed two quick knee strikes to Bakugo’s ribs. “Just give up.”
“Never!” Katsuki snarled as he ignored the pain from his ribs and performed a double kick to his opponent's chest. He fired off several explosions to land on his feet and charged over to rain explosions down on Raphael. “Just. Stay Down!”
Raphael pushed through the pain from the explosions and grabbed Katsuki by the shirt collar and pulled him forward. “I ain't no quitter!’ He grunted back at Katsuki as he started punching and kicking Katsuki every chance he could.
Katsuki grunted as tried to blind his opponent with his flashbang attacks.
“Not this time!” Raphael yelled as he brought knee up to hit his opponent in the groin before he grabbed Katsuki with his free hand and flipped him to the ground. “Time to finish this!” Raphael mounted his opponent and started raining down blows.”
Katsuki blocked what he could and threw punches back at his opponent as he suppressed the pain from the turtle's cheap shot. HIs temper got the best of him as the fight devolved into a street brawl. Katsuki sent multiple knee strikes to the turtle's stomach and legs. He smirked when his fist connected Raphael’s right eye.
Raphael didn't hesitate to headbutt Katsuki in the face twice. The first strike split the blonde’s lip and connected with Katsuki's nose hard enough to break it. “I only need one eye to beat you.” He could feel his eye starting to swell as the vision in his right eye went blurry. “Not so cocky now huh.” He brought his knees to his chest and planted both feet into Katsuki's chest, sending him flying away. Raphael grunted as he got back to his feet. “Not bad for a guy with no Quirk huh?”
Katsuki tumbled several times before slowly rising to his knees. “You are a goddamn cockroach.” He said wipe the blood from his face with the back of his hand.
‘I grow bored of this.” The Master said in Katsuki's mind. ‘Finish this with my gift.’
Katsuki rolled his shoulders before feeling refreshed as power swelled inside him. He let off an explosion from both hands and started moving around his opponent faster than before. He started letting out explosions from all sides of Raphael.
Ralphael did his best to tank each explosion and protected his face with his arms.
“What do you want me to do sir?” Midnight asked her boss over their private channel. “This is getting out of hand. It's been a street fight for the last few minutes.”
“I agree. Be prepared to end it.” Nezu replied. “The crowd is starting to get restless. I am sending SPD Officers to you.”
“Roger that.” Midnight replied, preparing to release her Quirk.
“I don't like this.” Michelangelo murmured as he watched his brother get hit with explosion after explosion. “Come on Ralph.”
“Get out of there!” Kirishima cried out as his friend took hit after hit.
Izuku grit his teeth as he watched his former bully's renewed attack. “This isn't looking good.” he was starting to grit his teeth.
“Are they going to stop the match?” Mina asked, wincing at each explosion. “This is getting bad.”
Momo narrowed her eyes. “I think so.” She said pointing at Midnight. “She is gripping her sleeve now.”
Raphael took each hit as best he could bet it and keep on standing. He could smell the smoke coming from his shirt and he was starting to feel the pain from his collection of injuries. Raphael decided to give it one last attempt. He ran forward and aimed a kick at Bakugo.
His attack never connected.
Raphael watched in slow motion as Bakugo slowly brought both of his hands together as a massive explosion went off in his face and he was launched out to the edge of the ring in a heap.
“Not so cocky now.” Katsuki taunted as he stalked towards his opponent on the ground. “Where is all your taunting and bravado?” He stopped in front of his downed opponent. “Any last words?”
Raphael gave him a bloody smile. “You’re Mom was great in bed last night.” He laughed before wincing from the pain.
Katsuki snapped and kicked his downed opponent hard several times in the face and watched the turtle fall to the ground with a thud. “Call the winner.” Katsuki snapped at his teacher as he started rubbing his eyes. “What is this?” He was confused when he heard the crowd starting to boo and purple haze started to surround him.
Midnight walked towards Katsuki with a scowl on her face. “I have been releasing my Quirk to settle you down.” She pumped out more purple smoke out of her torn sleeve. “Katsuki Bakugo, you have been Disqualified from the 3rd Round.”
“W-What?’ Katsuki asked, struggling to remain on his feet. “I won!” His surge of anger helped him for a moment as he breathed in more of the purple gas.
Midnight scoffed. “I warned you about going too far.” She told the boy as two SPD officers came up behind Bakugo. “You will be moved to a holding room until the end of the festival.”
“N-N-oo, I-I’m the be-est.” Katsuki struggled for almost a minute before collapsing to the ground.
Midnight let out a sigh and allowed her suit to start repairing itself. “You are clear to take him, officers. Have him checked out by Recovery Girl along with Ralphael.” She told the officers as several medical bots arrived to pick up both students.
Midnight walked back to the center stage and turned her microphone back on. “I apologized for the delay folks.” She said doing her best to smile for the crowd. “Katsuki Bakugo has been disqualified from the 3rd Round for unsportsmanlike conduct.” She waited as the crowd reacted to the news. “Will will be moving onto the next match. I need Mina Ashido and Ejiro Kirishima to report to the ring. The 2nd Match will start in 10 minutes.”
Midnight watched as Leonardo and Michelangelo jumped down and ran to their brothers' side. They followed the medical bots down the hallway. She blew out a breath before stepping off the stage for a few minutes.
“I hope he is going to be ok.” Ochako said, looking at Raphael and his brothers heading towards the Nurses office.
“Recovery GIrl will have him patched up.” Mei said, patting Donatello on the back. “Are you sure you don't want to go with your brothers?”
Donatello shook his head. “Leo and Mikie will let me know.” He said letting out a sigh. “I’ll check on him after our fight, Mei.”
Jennika patted Donatello on the back. “Ralphael is strong. He won't stay down for long.” She said gently.
“I’ll go with you.” Mei replied with a smile. “What are friends for?” Mei held out a fist.
Donatello returned the fist bump.
“I’m just glad he got disqualified.” Kyoka said, twirling one of her jacks. “Dude was being an even bigger asshole than normal.”
“Agreed.” Reiko chimed in with a shake of her head.
Mina jumped out of her chair. “Whelp time for me to shine.” She said hopping over to Izuku “Can I get a good luck kiss?” She gave her boyfriend a playful pout.
Izuku chuckled and leaned forward to give Mina a kiss. “Good Luck Mina.” He said, being careful not to make Setsuna fall off his lap. “Seems like Kirishima needed one too.”
Mina and the rest of the box turned to see Melissa pulling the red head into a kiss.
“Go Kiri.” Mina teased as watched Kirishima send her a glare. “Come up old buddy. Time to duke it out.”
“Yeah, yeah. I’ll get you back one day.” Kirishima replied with a laugh. “Time to show everyone how awesome we are.” He gave Mina a toothy smile. “Don't hold back on me.”
“Wouldn't dream of it.” Mina told her old friend with a wide smile. “Better hurry!” She ran off to the stairwell. “Last one there is a rotten egg!”
“Hey!” Kirishima shouted at his friend before running after Mina. “That’s cheating!”
Pony hopped out of her chair. “Move Setsuna. It's my turn.” She said tapping her hoof on the ground. "Best seat in the place."
Private Box
“My god.” Mitsuki breathed as she covered her mouth. “W-What is going to happen to him now?” Mitsuki felt tears running down her face as she watched be cuffed and taken off the field by two officers.
“They are taking him to the holding center.” Toshinori said, gently pulling Mitsuki into a tight hug. “SPD will hold him until the end of the Sports Festival and Nezu can call a disciplinary hearing.”
Inko walked over to pat Mitsuki on the back. “Why don't you have Toshinori take you to see your son.” She suggested looking at Toshinori. “Maybe you can finally get through to him.”
“Let’s go try.” Toshinori told her gently. “I’ll be with you every step of the way.”
Mitsuki nodded her head as she let Toshinori lead her out of the Private Box.
“I feel sorry for her.” Ryukyu said as she watched the door close behind the departing couple.
Rei nodded her head. “It’s hard to watch your children make a bad choice.” She said, closing her eyes as her mind drifted back to her first son Touya. “All you can do is love them.”
Inko pulled Rei into a loving hug. “That is true.” She agreed when noticed Dulcia was staring hard at the field below. “Something wrong?”
“I’m sure it's nothing.” Dulcia said, shaking her head. “I thought I sensed something, but it must have been my imagination.” She gave Inko a smile. “Been awhile since i've been around so many people.”
“Looks like they are about to start the next round.” Mt. Lady said loud enough to get everyone's attention.
“LADIES AND GENTLEMAN! The 2nd match of the third round is about to begin.” Present Mic shouted into the microphone. “This round we have Class 1-AB Social Pink Butterfly Mina Ashido and our Red Rescue Ejiro Kirishima!”
“Both are amazing students and Both are Power Rangers.” Vlad King said with a smile. “This should be an interesting fight.”
Mina was jumping from foot to foot and waving at the crowd with a bright smile. “This is amazing.” she said, moving to stand in front of Midnight. “I won the race down here by the way, Kiri.” Mina gave him a teasing smile.
“You cheated.” Kirishima replied while rolling his eyes. “Been doing the same thing for years, my friend.” He started rotating his shoulders jumping up and down to loosen up his body. “Just gonna have to win this to get your back for your headstart.” He held out a fist.
Mina stopped jumping around and gave her friend a confident smile. “Bring it on.” She said pointing a finger at friend. “I won't go down easy.” Mina completed the fist bump and took a step back.
Midnight smiled as she watched her students show a good competitive spirit. “I want a clean fight between you two.” She instructed them. “Are you both ready?”
“I’m ready.” Kirishima replied, getting into a ready stance.
Mina slipped off her shoes and flexed her feet a few times. “I’m ready to have some fun.” She slipped off her outer jacket and held her arms in front of her.
“Both fighters are ready.” Midnight said, turning her Mic back on. “Begin!” Midnight jumped back to a safe distance.
Kirishima moved in with aggressive punches. “You can't beat me Mina!” He called out with a grin. “I’ve been putting in a lot of extra time training for today!”
Mina let acid form beneath her feet and started skating backwards out Kirishima’s fists. “So have I!”She replied, pointing her hands at Kirishima's legs. “Try not to fall!” She sprayed Kirishima feets with a slippery acid.
Kirishima grunted as he fought to keep his balance. “Not bad Mina.” He grunted as he locked his legs in place. “You will have to do better than that.” He used the slime to help him slide towards Mina and sent a few quick jabs at her.
“Whoa!” Mina exclaimed as she leaned out of the way of Kirishima’s jabs. She performed a backflip sending an arc of slimy acid from her feet. “Almost got me there!” Mina landed back on her feet and skated around her opponent and sent a kick to his back. Mina hissed as pain ran up her leg. “Ouch!”
“You forgot about my Quirk.” Kirishima chuckled as his hardened form slowly turned to see Mina hopping on one foot. “You are faster than me, but you can't get through my hardened skin.”
“We’ll see about that.” Mina told him while carefully putting her foot back on the ground. Mina started to let acid run down her arm as the droplets hit the ground. “Sorry in advance buddy.” Mina started skating around her opponent again throwing globs of acid.
“Hot! Hot!” Kirishima cried out as quickly took off the jacket and tossed it to the ground. “That’s cold Mina.”
“Relax.” Mina snorted as she glided around her friend in a wide circle. “I kept it from doing more than a few small burns.” She gave him a playful smile. “I don't need Melissa coming after me for damaging her boytoy.”
“Hilarious.” Kirishima deadpanned as he glanced around and ran at Mina making sure to avoid any of her acid on the ground. “You can't escape me forever!” He moved between the tracks of acid. He noticed a few of the lines were hissing and eating the concrete. Kirishima knew he had to time this perfectly. He started to run to the left when Mina changed directions by gliding to the right. Kirishima managed to cut her off and lunged.
“Shoot!” Mina squeaked as she tried to get out of the way of her friend. She tried to bend out of his way, but Kirishima managed to grab a hold of her forearm. “Not gonna let you get me that easy!” She let her slimiest acid coat her arm and twisted away.
Kirishima grit his teeth as his hand slipped off Mina’s forearm causing him to stumble slightly on another line of slime. “Gross.” He grumbled, shaking his hand just hard enough to make the slime hit the ground. “You can’t beat me without fighting me, Mina.”
“I don't want to punch a rock wall again.” Mina said, skating backwards. “I remember the pain when we were in middle school and I hit you with your Quirk activated.” Mina shuddered. “I’ll just have to wear you down from a distance.”
“I guess we'll see.” Kirishima replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
“I apologize for interrupting the match, But I, Principal Nezu, am Authorizing the use of Morphers for Rangers facing one another. Morphers have been preset to Training Mode. Also, a barrier will be placed around the arena to protect the crowd from stray attacks. Good Luck~”
Kirishima smiled at his old friend. “I’m Game.” He said, raising his wrist up to show his Morpher. “I think we can make our match memorable.”
Mina slid to a stop to pull her Morpher out of her pocket. “Definitely.” She took her ready stance.
"Magical Source, Mystic Force! ‘1-2-3’ Galwit-Mysto-Ranger!”
“Lightspeed, Rescue!”
“Mystic Force Pink Ranger.” Mina finished and drew her staff from her belt. “I make this look good.”
"Red Ranger, Rescue ready!" Kirishima said with a salute. “Let’s give em an awesome show!”
Mina gave her Magi Staff a twirl as a breeze made her cape flutter. “Let's dance!” She replied with a laugh.
“I should have known Nezu would have something else planned for today.” Izuku said with a smile. “Now, we can show off a bit with our Ranger Forms.”
Pony was snuggled into Izuku’s side with a grin. “That's going to make my fight even better.” She said, lifting her head up enough to look at Momo. “Are you ready to face the bull?”
“Of course.” Momo replied back with a playful smile. “I plan to make it to the next round. You better bring your A game.”
“Oh, I’ll bring it.” Pony retorts with a bull-like snort. “Don't underestimate me.”
“Go Mina!” Toru shouted at the rail over the crowd. “You can take him!”
Melissa was standing next to Toru letting out a loud whistle. “Go Kiri!” She cheered with a bright smile. “You can win this!”
Mina blocked Kirishima's punch with her forearm and attempted to land a kick on his chest.
Kirishima barely managed to evade Mina’s kick and moved back on the offensive. “I’m not going to lose with attacks like this.” He told his friend after dodging another kick that was aimed at his head. “Need to try harder.”
Mina jumped back and leveled her staff at Kirishima. “You asked for it.” The wind started to slowly pick up as the pink crystal at the top of Mina’s Magi Staff started to glow brighter. “Air Bursts!” She sends several bursts of wind at Kirishima.
Kirishima was already on the move. “Me and my big mouth.” He grumbled and dove out of the way of one burst of wind and slid on a trail of slime to dodge another. “Almost had me there!” He was grateful for his suit for protecting him from Mina’s weaker acid. He drew his Rescue Blaster and switched it to Sword mode before going on the offensive.
Mina floated along the ring with a feather on the wind. She was about to block or redirect Kirishima’s attacks while planning on how to end the match. Mina knew that she couldn't beat her old friend in a battle of strength and she was starting to get tired from moving almost non-stop since the match began. She had an idea and smiled under her helmet. She carefully maneuvered to the edge of the arena.
Kirishima brought his sword down and managed to disarm Mina with a quick flick of his wrist. “No more wind blasts for you!” He rushed in for an attack and Mina jumped backwards over his attack and landed a few paces away.
“Time to try out my new spell code Izuku gave me.” Mina said pulling out her Mystic Morpher. “0 - 8 - 6 "Neramax - Tryn - Unios!" A moment later, metal red and gold boxing gloves covered both of her hands. “Mystic Force Fighter! Here we go!” Mina baited the trap and now she needed to see if Kirishima fell for it.
Kirishima gave his sword a fancy flourish to turn it back into its pistol form and holstered it. “Finally!” He cried out taking his boxing stance. “Time to win this!”
Mina brought her hands up to block Kirishima’s punches. “Not gonna make it easy!” Mina slipped a jab under his guard and watched as his Ranger suit turned a slightly darker red. When her attack landed it made a metallic thud. “Drat.”
“Now that I have hardened my body, you can't win this, Mina!” Kirishima told his friend with a laugh. He started to rain down punches on Mina. “You can't block me forever.”
Mina grunted as she blocked as best she could and gritted her teeth as the occasional hit landed. Mina started to release her slickest acid from her boots and hoped Kirishima wouldn't notice it until it was too late.
“You got this Kiri!’ Melissa cheered as she watched her boyfriend starting to wear down Mina’s defenses. “He’s got her on the ropes.”
Izuku shook his head. “Only if he figures out Mina’s Trap in time.” He told Melissa gesturing to the arena.
Melissa looked a bit closer and her eyes went wide as she saw what Mina was planning. “Oh no.” She gasped.
“Go Mina!” Ochako cheered with a loud whistle.
Mina's arms were getting heavy from Kirishima's hardened punches. She glanced down to see her slime had seeped all around them. “This has been a great fight Kiri!” Mina grunted out as she felt another blow rattle her bones.
“Very true Mina.” Kirishima replied, keeping up his attacks. “I am about to end this!” He drew back his right arm. “You were a great opponent!” It was as he threw his punch that he noticed the slime coated floor.
Mina nodded her head. “Agreed!” She dropped down to evade his haymaker and spun around on her slime and channeled her energy into her right glove making it glow a bright pink. “Wind Jab!” Her punch landed on Kirishima’s stomach and sent him sliding out of the edge and landed on his back.
“Winner of the 2nd Match by Ring out is Mina Ashido!” Midnight announced to the crowd as cheering filled the area.
“Power Down.” Mina said scurrying over to check on her friend. “You good buddy?’ She asked, offering Kirishima a hand.
Kirishima nodded his head. “Power Down.” He said as his Ranger form dissipated. “Yeah,” He said, accepting Mina’s hand and started getting back to his feet. “You were sneaky with your slimy acid.”
“Well, Izuku has been giving me extra lessons to help with my homework and I picked up a few things.” Mina replied with a playful smile. “Rematch soon?”
“You're on.” Kirishima replied with fistbump.
“Can I get a round of applause for such wonderful sportsmanship!” Midnight told the crowd with a bright smile. “Now, it will be 15 minutes until the next match to allow Cementoss to clean up the Ring. I will need Mei Hatsume and Donatello Yoshi to come down!”
Mei hopped to her feet. “Finally!” She said stretching her back. “I was getting bored.” SHe walked over and grabbed Izuku's face with both hands. “I need a good luck kiss.” She smashed her lips against izuku’s and pulled back. “Time to show off my babies!” He walked over and grabbed her bag and started to make her way down to the ring. “Hurry up Donnie.”
“Right behind you Mei.” Donatello told his friend while grabbing his bag. “Wish me luck.”
“You will do fine, man.” Denki said with a goofy smile. “Show everyone how wicked your gear is.”
Jennika walked over to place a hand on Donatello's shoulder. “Good Luck.” Jennika said, giving his shoulder a squeeze. “I am sure Leonardo and Michelangelo will be back soon. Do your best.”
“Thanks Sis.” Dontallo replied softly. “I better hurry before Mei gets impatient.” He trotted off after his friend.
Kyoka walked over and stopped in front of Izuku. “My turn Pony.” She said tapping her foot.
Pony sighed before stealing a kiss before slipping off Izuku's lap. “Enjoy.” She joked before moving to take Kyoka’s old seat.
Kyoka sat down on Izuku's lap and let out a content sigh. “Much better.” She said resting her head on Izuku’s shoulder.
Izuku chuckled. “I aim to please.” He whispered softly in her ear. “Anything else?” Izuku started running his fingers slowly through Kyoka’s hair.
“Not at the moment.” Kyoka almost purred as she pulled his free hand to rest on her stomach.
“Ladies and Gentleman, Now that the Ring has been repaired, we can introduce our competitors for the next round!” Present Mic boomed to the crowd. “For the first time in UA history, this will be a match between two Support Students!”
“These two have shown quite several incredible inventions and have earned their spots today in the 3rd round.” Vlad King announced. “This match may show the two of the most amazing inventors of Class 1-H.” He let the crowd talk amongst themselves for a few moments.
“First, our pink haired Genius of 1-H and Support Tech to the Power Rangers, Mei Hatsume!” Present Mic introduced and waited for the crowd to settle down. “Our next student is Donatello Yoshi, the Turtle Genius that is already making a name for himself!”
“Are you ready to make history?” Mei asked her best friend as they walked into the ring towards Midnight. “I can almost taste those offers for my babies to be used by everyone from Heroes to regular people.” Mei rubbed her hands together.
“Inventions.” Dontalleo said, adjusting a pair of goggles resting on his head. “I just hope to get an internship with my inventions.”
“Inventions, babies, same thing.” Mei replied with a shrug of her shoulders. “Our tech is years ahead of most of our classmates. She rolled her shoulders and cracked her neck. “You better not hold back on me.” She rested her hand on her belt.
“I wouldn't dream of it.” Donatello said with a grin and prepared to react.
“Are you both ready?’ Midnight asked smirking to see both of the tech geniuses nodding their heads. “Let the Third Match BEGIN!”
Mei clicked the heels of her air boots and started gliding across the arena. “Better think fast!’ She taunted her friend and grabbed what looked like a modified paintball gul from her backpack. She fired off several rounds at Donatello.
Donatello responded by jumping out of the way and grabbed his hoverboard on his back and tossed it on the ground. “It seems you got the formula right.” He said, gliding out of the way of her shots. “A moment slower and I would have been glued to the ground.” He threw a metal gray turtle shell the size of his palm at Mei. It skipped a few times before spilling out cantips all over the ground.
“Not bad!” Mei shouted as she jumped back and glided away from caltrops. “You magnetized them didn't you?” She reached for her belt and grabbed a small sphere and tossed it high in the air. “
“Yup, I was hoping to take out your boots!” Dontatello answered, drew a few discolored shuriken and tossed them with precision and hit the side of Mei’s boot. A moment later they let out a small jolt of electricity and caused the boots to short out. “Ha! got you Mei!” He was in the middle turning his hoverboard when a large blue net fell on top of him and caused him to lose his balance and fall to the arena floor. “Nice one.” He grunted trying to get out of the netting.
Mei landed with a sigh and tapped the release button on her boots to allow them to fall away. “I knew those were gonna be trouble.” She sighed and grabbed another gadget from her bag. “You give up Donnie?”
“Never.” Donatello said, pulling a small blow torch and burning his way out of the netting. “I am not going to go down that easily.” He rolled out of the netting and grabbed something in his pocket.
Wow this is starting to heat up!” Present Mic said with a laugh. “These two are showing off their tech and fighting skills.”
“They are both putting on an amazing show.” Vlad King agreed with his co-host. “I can't wait to see what happens next.”
“I half expected for Mei to turn this into a show to show off her inventions.” Setsuna said, leaning forward to watch the fight between the two tech continue to intensify.
“It appears that Mei wanted to give her all out of respect for her friend.” Ibara said with a small smile. “THey are pushing each other.”
“They are both having fun.” Jennika said pointing out to the group. “They both are smiling and laughing.”
“Well this is a way for them to blow off steam and show off at the same time.” Izuku added while still running his fingers through Kyoka’s hair. “Both of them have been putting extra effort into their creations for today.” He watched as Mei dodged another shuriken and tossed several smoke pellets at her opponent.
Kyoka let out a content sigh. “Mei is giving it her all.” She said cuddling closer to Izuku.
Mei landed on her feet after rolling to safety and started panting. She and Donatello had been pushing the other to the limit. All over the arena were broken or damaged items they had used to counter the other. “Time to finish this Donnie.” Mei said, grabbing what looked like an escrima stick until tapped a button and it extended to the length of a staff. “TIme to put your lessons to the test.”
Dontello looked at his damaged goggles and let out a sigh before dropping them to the ground. “Fine.” He said, pulling his own collapsible staff from his belt. “You can still surrender and no one will think less of you Mei.” He took his ready stance. “I showed you the basics over the last few weeks. I have been practicing with the bo staff for years.”
Mei gave her staff a couple of twirls before taking the stance Donatello had shown her. “Better not hold back.” She warned her friend as she gave him a wicked smile. “Better not underestimate me.”
“Wouldn’t dream of it.” Donatello replied before eloping forward and going on the attack.
Mei immediately went on the defensive and deflected away Donatello’s attacks as best she could. She winced as her opponent managed to land a blow to his right shoulder and then her left shin a moment later. “Ow.” She hissed as she took a step back to regroup. “OK, no more Mrs. Nice Mei.” She tapped another button on her staff and it broke in half. Mei managed to catch her friend off guard and land several blows to his chest and shoulders. “You did teach me the basics, but DECA found me several training programs in the archives.”
Donatello had to retreat quickly as Mei was aiming for his hands that were holding his staff. “You’ve gotten really good Mei, but I am going to end this.” He gave his staff a quick spin to deflect Mei’s weapons away from and swung forward to Mei’s head.
Mei leaned back and tapped a hidden button on her split staff and pressed the tip to Donatello's chest as his staff connected to his head.
Mei cried out as blood ran down her face from the strike to her head above her right eye. Donatello let out a louder cry as the tip of her staff cackled with a strong enough electric charge to send Donatello flying out of the ring.
Mei dropped to a knee and clutched her head to stop the bleeding. “Sorry Donnie.” She grumbled as she closed her right eye as her head was throbbing.
“The Winner of Match 3 is Mei Hatsume!” Midnight boomed as she watched the med-bots take both Mei and Donatello to see Recovery Girl. “Recovery Girl will have to check and see if Mei will be allowed to continue to the next round per UA policy.” She let the crowd reach booming levels. Can I get Shoto Todoroki and Melissa Shield to Come to the Arena!”
“That was a great show everyone!” Present Mic boomed with excitement. “Those two may not have had combat Quirks, but they gave us one heck of a Show!”
“This goes to show you to never underestimate Support students.” Vlad Kind agreed with a low whistle. “These two will certainly be making an even bigger name for themselves in the future.”
Melissa got to her and cracked her knuckles. “Finally.” She said, rolling her shoulders. “I was getting bored.”
“You got this babe.” Kiri said, standing up and giving her a wide smile. “You need to get to the finals.”
The couple shared a brief kiss before Melissa headed down to the arena.
“Mei said she is fine.” Toru said, placing a hand on Izuku's chest and showing him the text. “She said it's a few stitches and she will join us later.”
“But she’s hurt.” Izuku countered as Kyoka got off his lap after giving him a quick kiss. “I would do that for any of you girls.”
Momo moved to sit on Izuku’s lap and run her fingers through his hair. “Mei doesn't want you to miss the fights since you will have to face one of us in the Finals.” She explained doing her best to get izuku to relax. “Would you feel better to have Toru go down and sit with her for now?”
Izuku let out a sigh and nodded his head. “I’m just worried about her.” He said softly, looking at his girls. “I would worry if any of you were injured.” He felt Ochako give his hand a squeeze and Momo kissed his forehead.
“I’ll call you guys if anything changes.” Toru said, blowing Izuku a kiss before running off to the Medical area.
“Kyoka, you may want to get your special earplugs for this fight.” Izuku suggested pointing to the arena. “This fight may get a little wild.”
“Now, It's time for our 4th Match of the Third Round! Our competitors for the next round!” Present Mic boomed to the crowd. “We have the Lone Wolf Shoto Todoroki, who is facing off against the Tech Genius from I-Island Melissa Shield!”
“We have two of our top students that have shown great promise today. Vlad King said, leaning a bit forward. “ Both were also selected to join the ranks of the Power Rangers. So THis fight may get a bit out of hand.”
“We can only hope!” Present Mic joked with a laugh.
Melissa and feeling excited as she walked onto the arena. She started to stretch her arms and legs when she heard music coming from the opposite side of the ring. Melissa glanced up and saw Shoto approaching her while playing an odd looking flute. “That sounds pretty cool.”
Shoto finished his tune and slipped it into his jacket pocket and set his jacket off to the side. “Thank you.” He said with a nod of his head. “I am looking forward to facing Izuku in the finals.” He dropped into a ready stance. “You will help me prepare since you are a strong opponent.”
“I plan on going to the finals.” Melissa replied with a smirk and let arcs of yellow lightning surge around her. “Don't count me out just yet.” She took her own ready stance.
Midnight looked at both students and raised her whip. “Let the 4th Match begin!” She shouted and jumped to safety.
Shoto decided to start big and created a massive iceberg to overwhelm Melissa right off the start. He had to thank Zen-Aku for all the training in preparation for today. “That won't hold her for long.” He muttered to himself as he started to move to an unfrozen part of the ring. He had been watching her train with Izuku and Melissia was not to be taken lightly.
“Athen Smash 15%!” Melissa shouted as a moment later the glacier exploded in the shards and ice particles. She sends another Athen’s smash to clear the area. “Not bad Shoto, strong start.”
Shoto shrugged his shoulders. “Just getting warmed up.” He sent another wave of ice and held a small ball of fire in his hand.
Melissa easily smashed the iceberg and was about to change towards Shoto when a stream of fire roared from his hand. She was forced to dodge and blew out a breath. As the heat started to dissipate. “Not holding back until the finals?” She quickly got back to her feet and prepared for the next attack.
“Not taking a chance.” Shoto replied, sending a wave of ice and fire at Melissa. “I plan to make my mentor proud.”
Melissa smiled before drawing back both of her arms. “Double Athens Smash!” She bellowed and her attack dissipated both Shoto’s fire and Ice in an instant. She jumped into the air while still charged up with OFA and brought her foot down. “Spartan Axe Kick!”
Shoto made enough ice to withstand the attack and dived to the side and created a wall of fire behind him before getting back to his feet. He rushed forward a moment before Melissa's leg shattered the ice. “Wolf Strikes!” He called out before raining down several punches to Meliss’s unprotected side.
Melissa let out a surprised grunt as Shoto’s fists connected with her side and tried to rotate her body to block his fists with her arm. "Not bad.” She told him jumping back to change up her footing. "You used the ice as a distraction.”
“I know I can't beat you in a battle of strength or speed.” Shoto said letting his left side started to ignite into flames. “I’ll just have to use the tips and tricks that my mentor showed me.”
Melissa grinned back at him and started bouncing from foot to foot. “Show me.” she shot back before rushing forward.
Shoto sent a feint with his left arm and sent out a wave of fire towards Melissa's face. He grinned when he stopped to protect her face and that was when he struck. “Howling Fist!” He landed three hard punches in quick succession. One to Melissa stomach, left shoulder and to her chest, that caused her to stumble.
Melissa ignored the pain and brought up her leg to kick Shoto’s right side and sent him flowing back a bit in the ring. She lost her balance and fell to the ring. “Nice hits.” She admitted getting back to her feet and rubbing her stomach.
“Same to you.” Shoto said, jumping back to his feet and took his stance again.
Endeavor leaned against the wall and scowled as he watched his masterpiece use his fire along with his Ice. “What caused you to finally give in.” He wondered to himself as he watched his son start using an unfamiliar fighting style. “I bet it was that bastard wolf.” Endeavor had tried to find anything on the freak, but nothing was coming up in the Commission Records on him. “Basted Underground Heroes and their private files.”
Endeavor watched as his Masterpiece was going toe to toe with All Might's successor. THe Oaf denied it, but her fighting style was too similar to the current #1. He had noted several times during the first two events that Shoto had been close to a female classmate. He managed to get a picture and have one of his loyal sidekicks run her ID. “Reiko Yanagi.” He mumbled to himself and spotted her watching from the tunnel. “You will help me bring my creation back into the fold.”
Endeavor would wait for the right moment to grab the girl and disappear. He would have his Masterpiece back under his thumb or break it so no one could have it.”
Nezu narrowed his eyes after listening to Endeavor. “Not in my school.” He said tapping a button on his desk. “Nagant, can you send Two members of your team to shadow Shoto Todoroki? His father seems to be planning something.”
“Will do boss.” Nagant replied before ending the call.
Nezu steepled his paws as a bad feeling was building in his gut. “Please be wrong.” He said softly before returning his attention to match at hand.
“You got this babe!” Kirishima shouted and cheered on his girlfriend. As the fight was starting to intensify. “You can win this!” He let out another whistle and pumped his arm in the air.
“He is changing the weather, making so much ice.” Setsuna said with a shiver. “I'm starting to get cold.”
“S-Same kero.” Tsu said unable to stop shaking despite sitting between Fumikage and Kinoko.
Momo created a few blankets and passed them down. “Here.” She said before snuggling back into Izuku’s side. “That should help keep you warm, Setsuna, Tsu.”
Tsu let out several happy ribbets as she wrapped the blanket around her and her partners. “You are amazing Momo. Kero.”
Fumikage nodded his head and held Tsu closer to him to keep her warm.
“Thank Momo!” Kinoko said before tucking the blanket tighter around Tsu.
Izuku was watching the match as the Ranger Icon came up on the big screen. “Time for them to show off their Ranger Forms.”
Shoto grunted as Melissa landed a knee strike to his stomach that sent him skidding across the ring. She had changed up her fighting style to keep up with him. “That’s what I get for assuming she fought like All Might.” Shoto grunted as he got back to his feet. He had sent a stream of fire after Melissa's knee strike landed and looked up to see her toss her smoking jacket to the ground with large blue scales covering her chest and arms. “Sorry about that.” He apologized
“All good.” Melissa replied letting her blue scales start to fade before pointing to the screen. “Time for some fun.” She gave her wrist a quick twist and in place of her blue dino gem on her wrist, her Morpher appeared.
Shoto reached into his pocket to pull out his Morpher. “I guess I can cut loose a bit.” He replied with the barest of smiles on his face. He glanced over at Reiko before flipping open his Morpher. “It’s Morphin Time!”
“Wild Access! Howling Wolf”
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha! Tricera Power, Blue Ranger!”
Shoto flicked out his fingers and gold claws extended from his glove. “Ready?” He asked groping into a crouch.
Melissa punched her fist. “I thought you would never ask.” She replied charging forward.
The next several minutes was of the two of them showing off their martial skills. Shoto landed several good slashes with his claws againsts Melissa causing her to go on the defensive. Melissa was far from idle and managed to land several strong blows in return that forced Shoto to step back and change his attack angle.
Shoto drew his Lunar Cue and switched it to sword mode and came in from Melissa’s left side.
Melissa summoned her Tricera Shield to block his attack and drew her Thundermax Blaster to fire off several quick shots into Shoto’s chest, sending him stumbling to the floor. “Not gonna make it that easy Shoto!’ She spun her blaster and let it change into saber mode. “Now this is what I am talking about.”
Shoto rubbed his chest and started to slowly circle Melissa like a wolf moving around his prey. “I was afraid you wouldn’t give me a proper challenge.” He replied with a smile under his helmet. “Better keep your guard up!” He switched his Lunar Cue to rifle mode and started peppering Melissa's shield with multiple shots and letting out ice from his right foot to start freezing the ring.
Melissa raised her shield on pure instincts and felt his shots slam into her shield. She peaked around and saw what her opponent was planning. “No chance of a cheap ring out!” Melissa brough down her gold spike out of the bottom of her Tricera Shield into the ground hard and shattered a decent size of the ring and the layer of ice that was forming.
“This is getting so good!” Mina squealed as she leaned forward in her seat. “They are not giving each other an inch!”
“Come on Melissa!” Kirishima boomed at his girlfriend. “YOU GOT THIS!”
Ochako was bouncing in her seat. “I wish I was down there.” She said punching the air in front of her. “This is an amazing fight!”
“Yeah it's good, but can he stop lowering the temperature!” Setsuna groaned and hugged the blanket tighter. “Also, their attacks are getting bigger.”
“It's gonna be an epic finish.” Denki said, leaning forward.
Izuku nodded his head. “Midnight and Cementoss are getting into position.” he pointed to see them preparing for a powerful attack from the two. He reached up and tapped his ear. “DECA, is the barrier up to protect the audience?”
“Affirmative.” DECA replied quickly. “The barrier is still up.”
“Thank DECA.” Izuku said, tapping his ear piece again. “Wonder how they are gonna finish the m-match?” He almost jumped as Momo nipped his neck playfully. “Momo?”
“You stopped running your fingers through my hair?.” Momo said playfully with a teasing pout.
Several snorts could be heard around them.
“Yes dear.” Izuku said in a playful tone and started running his fingers through her hair.
Momo smirked the entire time.
“HYaah!” Melissa screamed, bringing down her shield again to shatter Shoto’s third attempt to freeze the ground beneath her. “The ring isnt going to last much longer.” She stood up and gestured to the damaged ring.
Shoto stood up and rested his Lunar Cue on his shoulder. “Agreed.” He then moved his Lunar Cue in front of him. “Time to claim my spot in the next round.” Shoto ran his hand along the length of his sword. Puffs of ice and smoke rose off his suit.
Melissa saw what he was doing and charged up her body with OFA. “I wont lose that easily!” She jumped into the air and started channeling everything into the gold spike of her Tricera Shield.
Shoto created a circle with his Lunar Cue and sent out a burst of flames down his arm to the tip of his sword. “Full Moon Flashpoint Slash!” He shouted before sending the attack at Melissa.
Melissa brought her shield down hard into the sphere of energy racing towards her. “One for All Tricera Smash!” She bellowed, while smiling ear to ear under her helmet.
The moment the spike made contact with the spear, several things happened at once.
The sphere exploded sending out a huge wave force that shook the ring.
The next thing that happened was the sudden burst of heat caused another explosion due to how cold the arena was before the sudden addition of heat that shook the entire arena and filled the barrier with smoke.
Cementoss and Midnight managed to dive for cover in time to avoid getting caught up in both explosions.
After everything settled down, the barrier dissipated and a moment later, a series of fans kicked on to blow the smoke out of the arena.
“THAT WAS INCREDIBLE!” Present Mic shouted into the Microphone. “Those two gave us an incredible match! They gave it their all and now we have to wait for the smoke to clear to see who will move onto the next round!”
“Both Shoto and Melissa showed incredible power and skills and no matter the challenge, they never gave up.” Vlad King added with a smirk. “Those two will go far as both Pro Heroes and Power Rangers.”
“It looks like the smoke is starting to clear.” Present Mic informed the crowd. “Who is our winner?”
Midnight let out a groan as slowly got back to her feet. “You good Cementoss?” She asked, letting out a few coughs and looked at her fellow teacher.”
“Yeah, I’m good.” Cementoss replied with a groan. “I am not getting paid enough for this.” He got back to his feet and looked at what remained of the ring. “Can you see either of them?”
“Not yet.” Midnight replied as the smoke started to dissipate. She started to carefully step back onto the broken arena. The crowd was getting restless as they waited on bated breaths. Midnight looked back and forth looking for either of her students. When the last of the smoke finally cleared, the broken arena was empty. Midnight spotted Shoto and Melissa lying against opposite walls face down in the grass. Both of them were still in their ranger forms. “It seems that both students have lost due to a Double Ring out!”
Midnight watched both of her students get back to their feet and make their way towards each other.
“Power Down.” Meliisa said, meeting Shoto halfway and extending a hand. “How about a rematch after our Internships?” She gave him a polite smile. “I’m sure you can join in when Izuku and I spar.”
“Power Down.” Shoto reached out and shook his opponent's hand. “Sounds good to me.” He replied with a nod of his head and moved to find his jacked and ship it back on. “Just remember, next time we fight, it won't be a draw.”
“On that we agree.” Melissa replied with a laugh.
Midnight smiled at her students. “How about you two head to get checked out by Recovery GIrl before heading back to your classmates.” She suggested before pointing to the destroyed platform. “It's going to be a few minutes before it's repaired.”
Shoto nodded and headed off to join Reiko with Melissa falling in step behind him.
“Ladies and Gentleman, we have reached the halfway point.” Midnight told the crowd with a bright smile. “There will be a short intermission as we repair the arena for the 5th match.” Midnight turned to look over at the student waiting area. “Tsuyu Asui and Melty Melromarc, please be ready to start your upcoming match.” Midnight snapped her whip and pointed to the crowd. “Take this opportunity to get some to drink or eat because we have 4 more great matches to determine who will make it to the next round!”
Endeavor growled as watched his masterpiece walk away from the ruined arena after tying with the girl! “What a waste.” He snarled feeling his flames grow hotter. “This place has made him soft.” Endeavor decided to go have a chat with his masterpiece. “I need to fix this before he comes weaker.”
“She was so close!” Kirishima groaned as he dropped back into his chair. “It was an incredible fight! I was just hoping she would make it to the next round.”
“There is always next year.” Ibara suggested to the redhead. “Both of them went all out and made our class proud.”
“That they did.” Kero.” Tsu agreed, glad the temperature was finally warming up.
Izuku looked around and frowned. “I thought that Toru would be back by now with Mei.” He said, biting his bottom lip for a moment. “Maybe I should go and check up on her.”
“They are both fine.” Mina said, holding up her phone. “Toru said that Recovery is a bit busy and she watched the last round with Mei.” She put her phone back in her pocket. “Both of them want you to enjoy the Finals in a relaxed manner before your match.” Mina then jumped to her feet and walked over and stopped in front of Izuku and Momo. “My turn.”
Momo gave a dramatic sigh. “Ok Mina.” She said before smashing her lips against Izuku’s before slowly getting to her feet and saunting back to her open seat. “Later Darling.”
Mina sat down on Izuku's lap and rested her back against his chest and wrapped her arms around her stomach. “This is life.” She purred and leaned back to kiss Izuku on the cheek. “Now, relax izuku. I’m sure that Toru will call if there is anything for you to be worried about.”
“Ok.” Izuku said, kissing the back of Mina’s neck. “I’ll try and relax.”
“Alright, I want you to make sure you take it easy.” Recovery Girl said, looking at Raphael with a stern look. “Those gummies will help you stay away for now, but you need at least a full day's rest before I can heal you all the way.”
“Thanks.” Raphael groaned, getting to his feet slowly. He raised a hand as Leonard and Michaelangello moved to help him. “I got it guys. I don't need a couple of mother hens fussing.”
“You know Splinter is going to fuss.” Michelangelo told his brother with a smirk. “You know how he worries.”
Raphael rolled his eyes. “Yeah, yeah.” He grumbled before pointing over at Donatello. “Go, fuss over tech boy.”
Donatello was tinkering with a gadget. “All good.” He said sitting on the edge of the bed. “I've shocked myself worse in the past.” He glanced over to see Mei was tinkering with her staff while Toru was playing on her phone in the chair beside her. “Sorry about the cut Mei.”
“Pft.” Mei scoffed with a shrug of her shoulders. “It's fine. Didn't even need more than three stitches.” She let out a bored sigh. “I just wish I could head back to the stand to sit with Zuzu.”
“UA Protocol says that you need a scan of your head as a precaution for any head injuries.” Recovery Girl repeated herself when she explained it to Mei the first time. “Female students have to have their blood drawn as a precaution.” She glanced up to see the current match had ended. “You four can leave. I have more patients coming my way.” She took the turtles.
“Yes, Ma’am.” Leonardo said with a bow. “Let's go guys.”
Donatello paused for a moment in front of Mei’s bed.
“Go.” Mei said, looking up from her tinkering. “I’ll be done soon and then join you guys.” She said, shooing her friend away. “I’ll be fine.”
“I won't leave her alone.” Toru chimed in, setting her phone down on Mei’s bed. “And it looks like Shoto and Melissa will be here shortly.”
“Ok. Later.” Donatello said with a small smile.
Recovery Girl waited until the 4 brothers left the office before walking over to Mei. “Now, I wanted to wait until we were alone to talk.” She said taking a seat next to Mei with a folder in her hand. “I’ve heard about your extracurricular activities with Izuku from Inko.” She gave both girls a knowing smile.
Mei blushed a bright red, Toru's whole body was a bright red with embarrassment.
“No need to be embarrassed. I was young once.” Recovery Girl continued and opened the folder and scanned the paperwork. “The good news is that you don't have a concussion and your stitches will be coming out next week.”
“Sweet!” Mei excelled pushing the blankets off her legs and started putting her tools away. “Does that mean I can head back to join Zuzu and the others finally?”
“Yes, but there is something else I wanted to discuss with you, Mei.” Recovery GIrl said with a pensive look. “Have you been feeling any different recently?”
Mei paused for a moment to think back. “Not really.” She answered, tapping her chin. “I mean I’ve been a bit more tired recently with preparation for the Festival and starving when Zuzu brings me food or snacks.” Mei hadn’t really thought about it much with everything going on.
“I see.” Recovery Girl said gently and closed the folder. “Mei, Your bloodwork came back and everything is fine, but I noted an elevation in your hormone levels and ran another test.” Recovery Girl reached over and held Mei’s hand. “Dear, you’re pregnant. Just over a month.”
“What!” Mei exclaimed in shock. She thought back to her birthday and facepalmed. “The shower.”
“Holy shit.” Toru muttered as her skin turned pale white. “We need to tell Izuku.”
“Mei grabbed Toru’s hand. “W-Wait, Zuzu has a match coming up soon and I don't want him to be distracted by this.” She said quickly. “W-We can tell him after the Sports Festival. I need to call my Mom and we need to get Inko down here.”
Toru paused for a moment and nodded her head. “You call your Mom and I’ll call Inko.” She agreed as she tapped the contact icon on her phone. “I’m sure this is going to go over well.” She muttered sarcastically.
“Toru? What's going on dear?”
“Hey Inko.” Toru said awkwardly. “Can you come down to the Nurses office? It’s about Mei”
“Is everything ok?”
Toru bit her bottom lip for a moment. “Yes and no.” She replied partially. “It will be better to explain this in person.”
“I’m heading that way.” Click.

Chapter Text
Katsuki groaned as he came to and forced himself to sit up. "What in the actual fuck." He groaned, trying to rub his face, when his hand stopped short of his face. He opened his eyes and saw that his hands were handcuffed together. "No." He breathed, remembering how his match ended. He got to his feet and looked around to see he was in a jail cell. There was a bunk and toilet in the small cell. Katsuki rushed to grab the bars at the front of the cell. "Let me out now!"
An SPD Officer was sitting at a desk not far from the cell, looking up from his paperwork with an annoyed look. "Sit tight, kid. Nezu will get to you later. We are under orders to hold you here until then." The man said before going back to his paperwork.
Katsuk yelled and kicked at the bars until the SPD Officer got up and stood in front of the holding cell. "Look, kid, I will give you a bit of advice." The man crossed his arms. "Sit quietly, or I will come in and gag you. You are already in a lot of trouble. Don't push it."
Katsuki bit back sarcastic remarks, stomped to the bed, and sat down.
"Good choice, kid." The Officer replied with a roll of his eyes. "Just sit quietly and watch your classmates compete."
Katsuki turned his head enough to see that the TV was on, and the next match had already ended with raccoon eyes and shitty hair. He was about to lie down when two figures approached his cell door. "What do you want?" Katsuki spat, leaning back and resting against the wall.
"I came to check on my son," Mitsuki said, folding her hands in front of her. "I'm glad you are okay." She paused for a moment before shaking her head. "I don't know how many times I can ask you this, but what has gotten into you? You could have seriously hurt several students today? Is winning all that matters to you?" Mitsuki narrowed her eyes as she watched her son look away. "You could be expelled for what you did! Is that what you want? Look at me, Katsuki!"
"It's bullshit," Katsuki grumbled back, still looking at the wall. "I won that fight. I was robbed of my chance to show how great I am." He clicked his tongue and shook his head. "I'm sure that Deku and that rat of Principal are working together to ruin my chances at being #1.” He started clenching his hands in anger.
"This is all on you." Mitsuki corrected her son with a glare. "You got put on probation for attacking Izuku and two of your classmates after you lost your first training match. I've talked with the staff, and your attitude is horrendous to everyone, including teachers." She continued rubbing her face with her hand. "Your behavior has only gone downhill since the USJ, and you have refused to talk to me beyond a one or two-word text message since you moved into the dorms."
"Why should you care?" Katsuki scoffed, finally looking at his Mother. "You're here with whom I have to assume is your boyfriend." He pointed to the blonde man standing off to the side. "Using this as a date, or are you trying to act like you care?"
"I care about you, Katsuki," Mitsuki said, struggling to keep her emotions in check. "I love you with all my heart. I know you are upset about me dating again. I loved your Father, but as I told you before, I am allowed to be happy after him being gone for the past 12 years." Mitsuki took a shuddered breath. "Talk to me, Katsuki. Tell me what is going on? Let me help you. We can work together to get you some help and keep you from being expelled!"
“I don't need anyone's help!” Katsuki snapped, jumping to his feet. “You wanna date that muscle-head moron? Go right ahead. I don't need you or anyone's help! I can prove that I am the best on my own." He pointed an angry finger at his Mother. "Go start a new family with your new guy. Because I am done with you! I will honor Dad's memory that you threw away like he was garbage!" He tried to move his hands apart and growled at the cuffs of his wrists, which prevented his actions. "FUCK!" Katsuki kicked his bunk. "JUST GO! I HATE YOU!"
Mitsuki walked away from the cell door with tears running down her face.
"You are on a dangerous slope, Katsuki." The blonde man crossed his arms and gave Katsuki a scowl. "My name is Toshinori. I deeply care for your Mother." He watched Katsuki scoff and shake his head. "The path you are going down is a slippery one. You have great potential to be an amazing hero, but if you continue with your current attitude, then you just may become a terrible villain instead." Toshinori started to walk away. "Don't waste this chance to reflect on your path. There is still time to make the right choices." Without another word, Toshinori hurried after Mitsuki.
Katsuki spat on the floor. "What an idiot." He moved to sit on the bed and crossed his legs. "I'll show them all. I'll be the greatest of them all." He closed his eyes and felt the warm embrace of his Master. "I'm ready."
“Good.” The Master said, creating a magical seal inside Katsuki's mind. "Meditate and channel your energy into the seal, and you will be able to show these fools how truly powerful you are, Young Nightwolf.”
Katsiki nodded and slowly muttered the words he had practiced for hours with the help of his Master. He could hear the TV in the background, and that was when he had the idea to show all of them. UA, his Mom, and especially Deku. Katsuki continued to chant and started to bide his time.
“I approve.” The Master cackled. It was going to be all about timing. The suppression seal he placed on the boy long ago would not be able to hide that building energy for long once Katsuki completed the ritual.
Inko pinched the bridge of her nose and took a deep, calming breath as Melinda was staring at her with her jaw agape. "A part of me is excited about another grandchild." She admitted moving her hand and giving Mei a smile. "The other part of me is upset you both did not wait until after UA to get pregnant." Inko moved to sit beside Mei and gave her a hug. "It will be okay, sweetie."
Melinda shook her head and moved to hug her daughter. "I could have sworn you were on birth control." She said, kissing her daughter's temple. "We'll get through this sweetie."
Toru nodded her head. “I’m sure that Izuku will flip when he finds out.” She gestured to her phone. “The girls are losing it.”
Mei nodded her head. "I take the pill every morning." She said, looking at her Mom. "I know we didn't use condoms on my birthday, but I've been careful." Mei reached into her bag, pulled out the pill bottle, and handed it to Recovery Girl. "Here.”
Recovery Girl took the bottle and looked over it. “Hmm.” She hummed before walking away. “Back in a minute.”
Mei placed her hand on her stomach. "I-I'm gonna be Mom.” She said with a shaky breath as it started to set in her mind that this was not a dream and there was a life growing inside her. “W-Will Zuzu still love me?" She looked between Inko, her Mom, and Toru. "I mean, he has a lot on his plate as it is with running the Rangers, and this will just add more stress on his shoulders."
Inko reached over and gave Mei a quick hug. “Izuku will be thrilled. I’m sure that Izuku will be beyond excited when you tell him.” She told Mei with a kind smile. “Everything will be just fine.”
"That boy loves us," Toru said, joining the hug. "Izuku will more than likely shower you with affection and pampering when he finds out." Toru kissed Mei on the cheek. "Not to mention, the rest of the girls will be jumping in to look after you."
Mei blew out a breath. "You're right." She said, rubbing her stomach. "Can we all agree not to tell him until later tonight?" Mei glanced over at the TV, which showed the ring being repaired by Cementoss.
“I think that would be for the best.” Melinda agreed, running her finger through Mei’s hair. “This also means several changes in rules for how to work in the Support Lab and the Command Center.”
“New Rules?” Mei asked, not liking the sound of that.
Melinda nodded her head. "Wearing a mask around chemicals, stricter time limits on working on your inventions, and ensuring you get plenty of rest." She informed her daughter. "I will be sitting down with Nezu, Inko, and Power Loader to help set the rules up and make sure that you are following them."
"That is an excellent idea." Inko agreed, giving Mei a sympathetic smile. "We are only doing this because we care about you and the baby, sweetheart."
“You know that Izuku would agree with them.” Toru chimed with a knowing smile. “He would be the first to make a list of things to keep you safe.”
Mei pouted and crossed her arms. “Fine.” She reluctantly agreed as the rest of them giggled. “So, what happens now?”
“Two things.” Recovery Girl said, walking back to join them. “First off, due to the rules of UA, You will be medically disqualified from moving onto the next round due to your pregnancy.” Recovery Girl brought up her cane and pointed it at Mei when the tech girl started to protest. “You can try next year as long as Izuku doesn't knock you up again.”
Mei blushed, and Toru started laughing.
Melinda and Inko winced.
“What was the second thing?” Melina asked, deciding to change the topic.
“These pills are placebos.” Recovery Girl tossed the bottle to Melinda. “These are worthless to keep Mei from getting pregnant.”
Melinda threw the bottle in the trash can. "Damn Detnerat." She snarled, and her hand shook with rage. "I bought them before I quit. They charged me an arm and a leg for those birth control pills since they did everything in-house, and insurance didn't cover it."
"We won't let them get away with it," Inko said, trying to calm the other woman down. "We can talk to Nezu about it later."
“When can I go see Zuzu?" Mei asked, wanting to get out of the nurse's office.
Recovery Girl gave her a smile. "Let me run one more test, and after the next match, you can join the rest of the students." She said in a grandmotherly voice. "Just bear with me a bit longer."
"Fine," Mei said, slumping her shoulders.
Toru threw an arm around Mei’s shoulder. “I’ll sit with you until then.” She said with a mischievous smile. “Now we have to come up with a plan to tell Izuku.”
Mei gave her a smirk. “Sounds good to me.” She laughed.
Hisashi sent a series of messages and videos to his bosses. He knew they would be recording all three days of the Sports Festival and have it analyzed in-depth later. Hisashi was hoping to get a jump on things. "Incredible."He muttered, watching the staff finish putting the ring back together. "I wonder what will happen next." Hisashi checked on his family before returning his attention back to the ring. The sooner he talked to Izuku, the better. His bosses were drooling at all the tech and the money it would bring them.
Shoto and Reiko were making their way back to join Izuku and the others after being cleared by Recovery Girl. Melissa was cleared first and left after checking on Mei. Shoto was cleared next, and Recovery Girl asked him to head back and join his classmates.
"You didn't have to wait for me," Shoto said as Reiko gently took his hand. "I wasn't hurt that bad."
Reiko shrugged her shoulders. “I’m not a fan of large crowds.” She replied, moving closer to his side. “Besides, I wanted some more alone time with you before rejoining Izuku and the others.”
Shoto nodded his head and gave her hand a gentle squeeze. “You want to take the long way around?” He said with the barest hint of a smile. “We can stop and watch the matches as we go.”
"Sounds good," Reiko murmured, laying her head on his shoulder.
The pair strolled down the tunnel and started the long way, just holding one another.
Unbeknown to either of them, they were being followed by a certain #2 Hero from a short distance away.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Thank you for your patience in repairing the ring so we can continue the next match." Midnight greeted the crowd, giving them a playful wink and smile. "Now, will Tsuyu Asui and Melty Melromarc please come to the ring!”
Student Waiting Area.
Izuku knew something was up. Mina had gotten a message a little bit ago, and it made her sit still, which was unusual. "Everything okay, Mina?"
"Yup," Mina replied quickly. “Peachy. Just something funny someone sent, is all." Mina shared a look with the other girls and was quickly sending a message.
“Are you sure?” Izuku asked, tilting his head slightly. “You know you can talk to me about anything.”
Ochako got out of her seat, touched Mina's shoulder with all 5 fingers, and moved Mina from his lap. “My turn.” She pressed her fingers together and let Mina fall into Setsuna’s lap. Ochako sat sideways on Izuku's lap and hugged him tightly. “I’ve missed this.” She said with a content sigh.
"That was cheating, Ochako," Mina grumbled, getting comfortable on Setsuna’s lap. “You could have waited a bit longer.”
Setsuna started laughing. “I’m not complaining.” She said, wiggling her eyebrows at Mina. “I got a hottie in my lap.”
"Keep it PG, guys." Kyoka teased, twirling her ear jack. “Looks like they are about to start.”
“Now we have our Amphibian Girl from 1-AB Heroics with incredible acrobatic skills, Tsuyu Asui!” Present Mic introduced as the crowd started cheering. "Versus our Business Student who is not afraid to get her hands dirty, Melty Melromarc!”
Both of them have shown great skill and determination to make it this far." Vlad King said, leaning a bit closer to his microphone. “Which one of them is the drive to win and move onto the next round?”
Tsu stared down the blue-haired girl and hopped in place a few times. "I'm going to win this round. Kero.” She said, limbering up her muscles. "I need to get stronger to keep a promise." She reached over to run her fingers along an old bracelet on her left wrist.
"As I told you all during the Second Event," Melty said, taking a ready stance. “This is nothing personal. I need to get into the Heroic Class.” Her eyes blazed with determination. “I need to win to redeem my family.”
Midnight looked between the two girls as they saw their determined looks set on their faces. “Are you both ready?”
"Yes, Ma'am," Melty answered by taking the caps off her water bottle on her hips.
Tsu dropped onto her haunches and nodded her head slowly. “Yes. Kero.” She replied never taking her eyes off Melty.
Midnight nodded her head. “Let the 5th Match Begin!” She boomed to the crowd and moved back to the edge of the ring.
Tsu immediately jumped to her right as a sphere of water shot past where her face had been a moment ago. Tsu shot her tongue out, hoping to catch the other girl off guard and finish the match quickly.
Melty quickly recalled her water back to her hand to form a shield to stop the tongue from reaching her. "You will need to do better than that!" She shouted, creating a water whip to bat her opponent's prehensile tongue away. Melty started to lower the temperature of the water to make it colder.
Tsu sensed the temperature in the air and pulled her tongue back as she started leaping around her opponent, looking for an opening. "Same goes for you." Tsu retorted, backflipping out of the water whip's way and landing quickly back on her feet. She tried coming at Melty from behind when the whip landed on her left arm. Tsu slipped out of her jacket and dropped to the ground to escape a moment before the jacket was covered in ice. “That was close. Kero.” She suppressed a shudder.
"I watched how you reacted to the ice from the match before," Melty informed Tsu and started to create another orb of water. "Surrender, and I will make this quick.'' She flexed her hand several times and made the orb of water freeze into ice and change back into water. "You can't win."
"I won't let a little cold stop me," Tsu said, narrowing her eyes. "I won't lose here." She scanned the arena and came up with a plan. Tsu started jumping around Melty while letting an almost clear mucus begin to cover her arms.
Melty did her best to keep track of Tsu and kept her water attacks on the move with one hand and defended herself with the other from Tsu's kicks or tongue.
"Whoa," Kinoko said in awe. “Tsu is not holding back.” She was on the edge of her seat and gripping her knee tightly. “Looks like she is going to try and overwhelm her.”
“Tsu has been very focused since Habuko was taken," Fumikage added as he crossed his arms and watched his girlfriend show off her acrobatic abilities. "She is using the Festival to get stronger so when the time comes, she can join the rescue team to bring her friend home."
"She is doing a great job," Izuku added with a nod. "I have been keeping my ear open for any news for her friend." He felt Ochako shift on his lap to get a better angle of the fight. "I have to say, Melty is pretty good.”
"Kick her butt, Tsu!" Ochako shouted to her friend. "You got this!" She was pumping her arm in the air.
“If that Melty girl catches Tsu in Ice, then it's all over," Momo said, leaning back in her chair and tapping her chin. "The cold could send her into hibernation."
"If," Setsuna added with a smirk. “I’m sure Tsu is working on a plan to keep from being frozen out.”
Tsu spun in the air to dodge several more ice spears and shot her tongue to the ground to change direction mid-air. She needed to wait for the perfect moment to pull off her plan.
Melty was doing her best to keep up with her agile opponent. She was getting a bit frustrated as Tsu continued to evade her. “You can't keep this up forever.” Melty taunted while drawing moisture from the air to enlarge her orbs of water. “Please end this before you get hurt.” She made a series of hand gestures that made more orbs and began making a circling gesture to speed them up. Melty slowly started to lower the temperatures of the orbs.
Tsu let out an annoyed croak as she was forced to flip backward to avoid an attack. Her opponent had changed up the pattern of their attack. Tsu suppressed a hiss as one of the orbs managed to graze her left side and sent a chill down her spine. She nearly lost her balance from the sudden chill. "Guess it's now or never. Kero.” She muttered to herself and glanced down to see the sheen on both of her arms. She launched herself forward. Tsu used her powerful legs to jump faster and faster.
Melty took a step back and brought her hands together to try and trap her opponent in her water. Tsu managed to use her tongue again to pull her towards the ground to evade the water sphere. Melty was about to slam the water into the ground but noticed Tsu was gone. “Where did she go?” She looked around the arena, but the frog girl had disappeared.
“After an amazing battle, Our Amphibian warrior has just disappeared!” Present Mic exclaimed. “Is the match over? Did she exit the ring?”
“I think we are about to find out.” Vlad King said, narrowing his eyes slightly and scanning the field.
Student Waiting Area.
Fumikage smirked as he watched Tsu disappear from view. “Tsu has won this.” He said with a proud smile.
Kinoko was bouncing in her seat. “She did it!” She squealed before hugging Fumikage’s side.
“Never underestimate Tsu.” Dark Shadow said, nodding his head. “She is scary when determined.”
Melty pulled her orbs of water back to float around her as shields. She scanned every inch of the field. "What are you planning?" Melty asked, lowering her hands to make sure she wasn't missing something. She decided to separate the orbs to expand her reach. The added strain was taking its toll as sweat started rolling down her face. Melty thought she saw something but was attacked from behind and slammed to the ground. "Gah!" Before she could recover, something slimy covered her hands, and they went numb.
"Time to end it. Kero." Tsu said quickly, wrapping her tongue around her opponent's waist and tossed the girl out of the ring.
"Melty has been eliminated by Ring Out!" Midnight shouted as the crowd started cheering. "Let's hear it for Tsuyu!"
"What a shocking turn of events!" Present Mic exclaimed. "Asui was able to use some kind of invisibility to ambush her opponent."
"She noticed the disadvantage of her opponent and changed tactics on the fly," Vlad told the crowd. "Let's see if she can make it through the next round."
"Will Denki Kaminari and Ibara Shiozaki please make their way to ring for their match.” Midnight said.
Student Waiting Area.
“Yes!” Komori cheered happily and jumped out of her chair. “Go TSU!”
Fumikage smirked and nodded his head. “I knew she could do it.” throwing an arm around Komori.
“Tsu was awesome!” Ochako said excitedly from Izuku's lap.
Izuku smiled at his girlfriend's excitement. "I can see her being a great Heroine." He said, watching Tsu leave the area. "This is turning out to be a good event. I'm sure everyone will be getting plenty of Internship offers."
“Zuzu!’ Mei shouted as she made a beeline for him with Toru hot on her heels." She barely waited for Ochako to move out of the way before tackling him. "I missed you."
"I missed you too," Izuku whispered back and softly kissed the inventor. "Are you okay? Did Recovery Girl have any issues?"
"She was being cautious about a concussion," Mei said, shifting to cuddle him to hide her face from him. "She won't let me compete in the next round as a precaution.” She glanced over to see Toru give her a wink. “Can I stay here for a bit?”
"Sure," Izuku replied, running a hand through Mei's locks. "Are you sure anything was okay?" He was worried about how hard she was clinging to him.
"I'm feeling much better now," Mei answered, breathing in his scent. “Looks like the next match is starting.”
“Now we have our Boy of Living Lightning from 1-AB Heroics with shocking abilities, Denki Kaminari!” Present Mic Introduced as the crowd started cheering. "Versus our Lady of Faith with the green thumb, Ibara Shiozaki!”
"I'm looking to see if Denki can overcome his disadvantage of facing off against his Quirk's weakness." Vlad Kind stated as the student got into position. "It looks like we will find out."
"Talk about pressure," Denki mumbled as he stood across from Ibara. "Are you okay with this?" He asked one of the few people in the world that made him feel safe.
Ibara gave him a gentle smile and said a small prayer. “It will be fine,” Her expression changed to a serious one. “You better not hold back or let me win.” She let her vines within in a menacing way. “If you do, I will withhold privileges as your girlfriend. Understand?”
"Yes, dear," Denki said with a nervous chuckle.
"Are you two ready?" Midnight asked with a smirk at the adorable couple. After getting a nod from both competitors, She turned her mic back on. "Alright, everyone, let the 6th match begin!”
Denki saw a half dozen vines launch towards him, dove towards the ground, and rolled to his feet, and the next barrage was already on him. "So, not fair!" He was very glad for all the extra training with the class and Ibara on their off days.
“You are doing very well,” Ibara said with a smile as sending a bundle of vines like a spear and watched them burrow into the concrete near Denki. "Keep it up, Denki; you are reacting much faster than usual."
"I have good motivation!" Denki said, sliding underneath a barrage of vines as he looked at his girlfriend. He was trying to find a way to counter Ibara vines that were resistant to his electricity. Even if he grabbed her vine, she could detach them before he could send electricity down them. Denki caught Midnight in his peripheral vision and remembered his lessons about fighting the opposite gender. "I hope this works." He muttered to himself and lept over Ibara's attempt to send her vines in low to trip him up. “You know,” He started giving her a sly smile. “You look even more beautiful than usual right now.”
“W-What?” Ibara said with a blush as Denki complimented her. She sent a bundle of vines too far to the right and missed her target completely. “A-Are you flirting with me?” She felt her cheeks warm up.
“Yes?” Denki replied with a smile. “I took a few lessons from Hitoshi and Izuku.” He rushed forward. “Maybe I can get a kiss from my beautiful girlfriend after this.”
"Oh, you scamp," Ibara muttered as she jumped back and created a wall of vines. "Two can play at this game." She gave him a wide smile. "Are you sure you can handle me, handsome?"
Midnight was grinning ear to ear as they started flirting back and forth. “Best seat in the house.” She giggled.

“Giving lessons now on flirting?” Kyoka joked as she listened to the adorable flirting going on in the ring. “Seems like Sparky has picked up a few things.”
"He may have asked me for a few pointers," Izuku replied, rubbed the back of his head, and chuckled. "I mean, I'm not really an expert at it."
“Liar,” All the girls said with a laugh.
Mei kissed Izuku on the lips. “Zuzu, you are unintentionally smooth, and we can all attest to that." She cuddled up against him.
“Yup,” Ochako laughed and adjusted her temporary glasses.
Izuku bowed his head in defeat.
“These two are not giving each other an inch!” Present Mic screamed as the fight reached the ten-minute mark.
“Denki is doing well despite his Quirk being neutralized by her vines.” Vlad King commented. “These two are reaching their Ranger timer.”
"Are you getting tired, my handsome Thunderbird?" Ibara flirted as the adrenaline was pumping, as their fight dragged on. She felt the sweat running down her face from the intense battle. Their flirty banter made her giddy as she saw Denki smile.
Denki panted as he wiped the sweat from his face. “Yeah,” He said with a grin. “How about you, my lovely lioness?” He planned on screaming into a pillow later in the dorm as this flirting tangent. “Want to call it a draw?”
"Sorry, no," Ibara said, giving Denki a gentle smile. "I plan to win this." She pulled out her Morpher.
"Magical Source, Mystic Force! ‘1-2-3’ Galwit-Mysto-Ranger!” Denki shouted, "Fast as Lightning! Mystic Force Yellow Ranger!”
“Wild, Access! Blazing Lion!” Ibara shouted. “Red Wild Force Ranger!” She flicked her fingers and let her cat-like claws extend from her gloved hands. “You can still surrender.”
"Here, kitty, kitty," Denki retorted, drawing his Magi Staff. He heard Ibara let out a low growl and knew at that moment that he had gone too far. "I'm in trouble."
“That you are kid.” Midnight snickered. “Good Luck.”
Denki jumped back just in time to avoid the swipe of her claws and moved away from her nails and aggressive pursuit.
Student Viewing Area
“Whelp,” Kyoka said with a laugh. "Denki is in the dog house." She repeated his last taunt, and it elicited several laughs from class 1-AB. She watched Denki duck and dive under Ibara’s aggressive assault.
Setsuna cackled, Mina still sitting on his lap. "This will be good." She said, grinning ear to ear.
“Agreed.” Itsuka chimed in as Denki landed a few blows against Ibara and left himself open to her retaliation. “I think I need to spar with Ibara more often.
Denki let out a cry as her claws connected with his side and sent him tumbling to the ground with a spray of sparks. “Ow,” He grunted and rolled back to his feet. “I deserved that.” Denki changed his Magi Staff to its crossbow configuration and fired several shots at Ibara.
“That you did!” Ibara replied, dodging most of his shots as he moved closer to face him. A shot landed against her left shoulder and stomach, but she pushed through it and continued her offensive.
“Gah!’ Denki cried out as he stumbled back, and Ibara jumped towards him. He brought his feet up on pure instinct and used her momentum to send Ibara flying across the ring. Denki scrambled to his feet to see Ibara had slid to a stop several feet from the edge of the ring. "I couldn't get that lucky." He groaned and saw that his weapon had slid to the middle of the arena. "It's official. God hates me."
"Don't even think about it," Ibara warned, crouching low before darting forward.
Denki rushed forward and dove for his crossbow. His fingers brushed against his crossbow when Ibara slammed into him, and the two got tangled up as they rolled across the ring. When their roll came to an end, Denki grabbed Ibara’s wrists and pinned them to the floor while straddling her stomach.
They stared at one another through the visors of their helmets, panting.
“Oh, my.” Midnight cooed with a wicked grin. “Such a bold move~.”
Denki and Ibara froze.
"I-I didn't-" Denki tried to apologize when Ibara broke free of Denki's grip, grabbed his suit with both hands, and tossed him like a ragdoll out of the ring.
“Ibara is the winner!” Midnight boomed, and the crowd exploded with excitement. “Denki is eliminated by Ringout!” She turned off her microphone and cackled at the sight of Ibara darting for the hallway with Denki hot on her tail.
"What a riveting match, folks!" Present Mic cheered along with the crowd. "Denki gave it his all but couldn't beat the Fierce Lioness Ibara!"
“Don't mistake her kindness for weakness,” Vlad King added with pride.
Will Momo Yaoyaorozu and Pony Tsunotori please make their way to ring for their match.”
"Seems like it's finally our turn," Momo said, getting up from her seat and moving to stand in front of Izuku. "Be back soon, darling." She purred and placed a sweet kiss on his lips before sauntering away.
Pony snorted and rushed over and stole a quick kiss from her boyfriend. "See you soon, Izu!” She giggled and ran after Momo to catch up.
“Who are you gonna root for?” Setsuan teased.
Izuku gave her a deadpan expression. “Both,” He said as the other girls started to snicker.
“CAN I GET A BIG HAND FOR THE MISTRESS OF CREATION AND SERGEANT IN THE POWER RANGERS! MOMO YAOYOROZU.” Present Mic announced excitedly as both students walked into the arena. “AND THE RUTHLESS COWGIRL DESPITE HER SHORT STATURE FROM TEXAS. PONY TSUNOTORI!”
Momo and Pony smiled at one another as they started to stretch before their fight began.
"How about a wager?' Pony offered with a hint of mischief in her eyes.
Momo nodded as she limbered up and unzipped her jacket, revealing her black sports bra and toned stomach. "You have my attention." She replied, glancing at Izuku and sending him a wink.
“How about the winner gets Izuku alone for the night?” Pony offered while cracking her knuckles. “Are you game?”
Momo paused mid-stretch and flashed the blonde a smile worthy of Midnight herself. “Izuku, alone for the night? She purred, and her eyes flashed with excitement. "You have yourself a wager. Kyoka, Shoji, not a word to Izuku about this."
“Oh, this is the best day so far, getting to watch young love, flirting, and naughty wagers being made.” Midnight said, wiping a fake tear from her eyes. “I am so proud of you girls.” She beamed. “Are you girls ready?”
'Ready!" Momo and Pony said, taking a ready stance.
Midnight snapped her whip. ““Let the 7th Match Begin!”" She said, switching on her microphone.
Student Waiting Area.
Izuku heard Kyoka laughing, and Shoji snorted a moment later. "What did they say?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Nothing!” Kyoka and Shoji said quickly.
Pony immediately created 4 horns and launched them towards Momo. “I’m gonna win this!” She charged forward with a fierce smile on her face. “Izuku is mine tonight!”
Momo created several canisters from her stomach and let them fall to the ground before leaping back. “Don't count your chickens before they hatch!” She smirked as smoke filled the stage to blind her opponent.
Momo wasted no time crafting a sturdy, round shield and a long bo staff from her Creation Quirk. She assumes a defensive posture, eyes calculating, assessing Pony's first move. On the other side of the arena, Pony crouches low, her legs tensed like a spring. With a swift motion, she launches forward at blinding speed, her horns extending toward Momo like twin lances.
Momo reacted immediately, thrusting the bo staff to parry Pony's charge. The clash of metal against hardened horns reverberates through the stadium. Using the impact's momentum, Pony twists her body mid-air and sends her horns flying back toward Momo from behind. They detach and fly like spears aimed directly at her.
Momo expertly spins her bo staff, knocking two of the horns away while raising her shield to block another. Despite her defenses, Pony’s relentless speed makes it difficult for Momo to maintain her footing. The crowd roars with excitement as the back-and-forth begins, the agility of Pony matched by the sharp instincts of Momo.
Momo’s eyes narrow. She knows Pony’s mobility is her greatest strength, so she quickly switches from defense to offense. With a single motion, she tosses the bo staff aside and materializes several caltrops from her body, scattering them in a semi-circle around her.
Pony, ever quick on her feet, jumps above the traps, twisting mid-air, but Momo anticipated the move. She throws a weighted net high, aiming to entangle her opponent. Pony slashes at the net with her horns, severing the strands, but it forces her to momentarily lose her balance as she lands.
Seeing an opening, Momo creates a long, chain-like whip, spinning it with precision. The crack of the whip slices through the air as she aims it toward Pony's legs. Pony grits her teeth, using her horns again to cut through the chain in a shower of sparks. Momo retreats with Pony back on the offensive, creating makeshift walls and barricades for cover.
Pony doesn’t let up, launching herself into the air and sending her horns in rapid succession toward the walls. Each impact chips away at Momo’s defenses. Momo, always tactical, uses the barrage to buy herself time, creating a modified flashbang. She ducks behind her barrier, waiting for Pony to make her next move.
As Pony leaps over the last wall, her eyes blazing with competitive intensity, Momo tosses the flashbang directly into her path. The explosion of light temporarily blinds Pony, who stumbles mid-air. Momo seizes the chance to strike, charging with her bo staff for a decisive blow.
But Pony wasn't done yet. Despite the disorientation, she managed to use her ears to hear Momo's approach. In a move of desperation, she sends all her horns outward in a wide, defensive strike. The sudden attack forces Momo back, just barely dodging the whirling spikes. The match resets as both competitors caught their breath, but Pony's eyes have regained their sharpness.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this fight is getting epic!” Present Mic exclaimed as he watched Momo and Pony duke it out. "These girls are not holding back; it looks like they're just getting started!"
“Things are about to heat up.” Vlad King added on as the screen flashed a bright green.
In the Private Box
"That's my Girl!" Laura boomed with motherly pride. "Show them how we do it, Texas! Woo!" She pumped her arms as the fight grew more intense.
“She is doing incredible,” Cathay said with a proud smirk.
Mona watched her daughter's determined expression on her face. “Don't count Momo out just yet.” She mused. “My daughter can be driven with the proper motivation.”
“Does that mean we need to test Momo later to see if she is well, you know?" Mt. Lady gestured to her stomach after making sure Eri and Rapthalia were distracted.
"God, I hope not," Inko mumbled as Rei held her close.
Laura stopped for a moment. “Remind me to have Pony tested,:” She told Cathy with a groan. She was in no rush for more grandchildren.
Momo evaded another barrage of Pony’s horns by creating a shield to block or deflect them. "Not bad, Pony,” She said, grinning at the green light on the big screen. “But this match is mine.” She drew her Morpher. "Go. Go, Samurai!"
“We’ll see about that!” Pony brought her wrists together. “Magna Power!” She said quickly.
“Red Samurai Ranger!/ Manga Defender!”
They each drew their swords and took a ready stance. With a moment of stillness, both fighters gauging each other. Momo's eyes are sharp, studying Pony's movements, waiting for an opening. Confident in her strength, Pony taps her foot against the floor before charging forward with surprising speed for someone so heavily armored.
Momo swiftly sidestepped, her katana flashing in a blur of red light as she sliced toward Pony's side. However, Pony's reflexes kick in—she blocks with the flat of her sword, causing sparks to fly as the weapons collide with a resounding clang. The force of the impact sends a shockwave rippling through the arena.
Pony pushed forward, her sword spinning in a wide arc, forcing Momo to retreat momentarily. The Magna Defender capitalizes on her momentum, swinging her sword with both power and precision, aiming to overpower the Samurai Ranger. But Momo’s agility shined—she ducked under the blow and rolled out of the way, quickly regaining her footing. She darted in and out of Pony’s range, striking with quick jabs of her katana, looking for weak points in the Magna Defender’s armor.
At one point, Momo used her Creation Quirk mid-battle. She conjures a smaller throwing blade from her hand, which she sends flying toward Pony in an attempt to distract her. Pony parries the thrown weapon but leaves a brief opening. Momo takes advantage, closing the gap and delivering a swift upward slash aimed at Pony’s arm. The blade grazes the armor, creating a shower of sparks.
Pony grunts in acknowledgment, but instead of faltering, she presses harder. With a surge of energy, she activates the Magna Defender’s signature move—her sword glows bright green as she thrusts it forward, the force creating a sonic boom as it travels toward Momo. Reacting quickly, Momo brings her katana up, blocking the attack just in time. The sheer force pushes her back several feet, but Momo remains on her feet, her determination unwavering.
"You are good, Momo," Pony admitted as she started to circle her opponent. "But it's time to end this." She slid one foot forward and angled her blade at Momo.
“Agreed,” Momo said, gripping her Spin Sword with both hands. “I have several plans for my night with my Darling.” She smirked under her helmet.
They both froze for a moment before lunging forward.
“Blazing Strike! / Magna Slash!”
Momo and Pony began to exchange blows, sending sparks from their clashing blades. They fought to a stalemate when Momo put her plan into action. She let Pony overpower her and spun out of her sword's reach. Momo summoned her zanbato, Fire Breaker, swinging it into Pony's abdomen with everything she had. Momo launched her opponent out of the ring and into the wall hard enough to leave a small crater before falling to the grass.
“Winner by ring out! Momo Yaoyorozu!” Midnight announced as the crowd went wild.
"Power down," Momo said before hopping onto the ground. "Are you okay, Pony?" Momo offered a hand.
Pony grunted before powering down as well. "Yeah, nice attack, by the way." She complimented and took Momo's help back to her hooves. "I want a rematch at some point." Pony gave Momo a confident smirk. "Same stakes, of course."
“Of course,” Momo replied with a matching grin. “Maybe we can work something out that would be beneficial to both of us.”
"I'm listening." Pony said, gesturing back to the stands. "Talk while we walk. It's Izu’s turn to fight.”
"That was a riveting match, ladies and gentlemen!" Present Mic boomed as the crowd cheered again. “Now we are on to the last match of the preliminaries.”
“What a match it was,” Vlad King agreed. “Both of them gave it everything you got and pushed each other to the edge.”
“Can we get Izuku Midoriya and Itsuka Kendo to the arena!”
“You know we’ll have to get back up to watch Izuku and Itsuka’s match?" Shoto asked as he was led to a back hallway. They sat against the wall with Reiko snuggled into his fireside.
“I know,” Reiko replied softly and let out a sigh with her eyes closed from the warmth. “We can just sit here for now.” While Reiko liked having friends, she didn't feel comfortable being around large groups of people for long periods of time.
“Okay,” Shoto replied, resting his chin on her head. He paused for a moment before wrapping an arm around her shoulder. “Comfortable?”
“Yes,” Reiko replied with a nod, purring like a cat. “So warm, I could fall asleep.”
Shoto let a small smile cross his face as they sat there in silence until a voice ruined their perfect moment.
“How touching.”
Shoto’s head snapped in the direction of the voice, and he let out a low growl to see his Father standing in the middle of the adjacent hallway. "You,” He snarled, jumping to his feet and taking a defensive stance. “You’re not allowed back here.”
“How far you have fallen,” Endeavor spat with a shake of his head. “You let your weakness for this girl blind you to real power. A draw with that Shield girl is a disgrace to my reputation and, by connection, makes you one as well."
“The only disgrace here is you,” Reiko hissed, taking her place beside Shoto. “You should leave before this goes any further.”
Endeavor sneered. "Hold your tongue, child," He said with a dismissive wave of his hand. "You are poisoning my perfect creation with weakness like his mother." His flames grew brighter, and a wave of heat filled the hallway. "You will come with me now, Shoto, or I will take you by force." His gaze moved to the Yanagi girl. “There will be collateral damage if you resist.”
“You can try,” Shoto said in a low voice, pulling his Luna Morpher out of his pocket. “I’ve learned a few tricks since then.”
Reiko brought her wrist up to reveal her own Morpher. “Two against one,” She said, narrowing her eyes. “I like those odds.” Reiko's eyes flashed with determination.
“Please,” Endeavor scoffed at their bravado. “You think those toys will make any difference? I am the strongest Hero. Last chance to surrender.”
"Funny, I was about to say the same thing to you, Endeavor."
The trio turned around to see Lady Nagant decked out in her gray and black SPD uniform. She was flanked by Natsuo Todoroki in red and black and Raina Kaminari in Yellow and Black. Behind them were half a dozen regular SPD officers.
“Traitors.” Endeavor snarled, and his flames grew more intense. "Leave, this is a private manner."
Lady Nagant clicked her tongue and shook her head with disappointment. "Oh, Endeavor, you never change," She said in a condescending voice. "You are on UA property and trespassing in a restricted area." She rested her hands on her hips. "By order of Nezu, you are to be escorted off the premises. You can walk out on your own or be taken into custody. Your call.”
Natsuo let a pair of cuffs hang from his pointer finger, swinging back and forth. "I'd love to slap some cuffs on you." He said with a bright smile. "It will be very cathartic." His free hand was behind his back, and his Morpher was ready to go.
Raina had her SPD Morpher in hand, ready to activate at a moment's notice. "Or we can do a Judgment Mode and hold you there until the Commission comes to collect you like they did, my worthless father." She explained with a fake smile on her face. "We have additional units enroute, and we made a call to Zen-Aku to let him know that you were here."
Endeavor couldn't suppress a wince at the memory of being tossed around like a ragdoll by the wolfman. He knew the odds were turning against him quickly, and he needed to get Shoto and escape back to the Commission to help him handle this mess. Endeavor didn't care if Nezu released his blackmail material. He had the funds to make it all go away. "I choose option three!" He lunged for Shoto.
“Judgement Mode!” Natsuo called out in a calm tone as the two of them were in a large darkroom, and a clock face appeared in front of Endeavor. A green circle and a red X flashed back and forth. "Enji Todoroki, AKA Endeavor, you are under arrest for multiple counts of Menacing, Trespassing, and Attempted Kidnapping of Shoto Todoroki and Reiko Yanagi. How do you plead?”
Endeavor growled and tried to find a way out of the room. "I'm innocent!" He bellowed as he let the flames around his face grow brighter. "Release me.
The scanner beeped several times before a red X flashed over Endeavor's face and on his Morpher. "You have been found guilty. Confinement Mode!" Natsuo said with a smirk on his face. A flash of multi-color light hit Endeavor, and he was sealed in a containment card.
Lady Nagant sauntered over and picked up the card, chuckling to see Endeavor silently ranting and raving. "Would have loved to have him like this years ago." She mused, looking over at Natsuo and Raina. "Run this back to HQ and get back on patrol."
"With pleasure, boss," Raina said, taking the card between two fingers. "Come on, Natsuo."
Natsuo gave his younger brother a lazy salute. "Later, bro," He said with a wink. “Don't have too much fun with the lovely lady.”
Shoto scowled at his brother as he turned to look at Reiko. “Sorry about that.” He said, shoving his hands into his pocket.
“No apologies,” Reiko told him with a ghost of a smile. “Shall we get back to the other?”
“That sounds like a good idea.” Lady Nagant said after sending the extra officers back to their posts. “I’ll walk you two back.” She flashed them a teasing smile. “I’d hate for you to get lost again.”
Reiko and Shoto both flushed slightly.
Now for the final match of the preliminary rounds: the leader of the Power Rangers, Lieutenant Izuku Midoriya, and the other Sergeant of the Rangers, the martial arts expert Itsuka Kendo!
Izuku was grinning as he walked onto the arena after Pony and Momo waited long enough to take his breath away with passionate kisses before heading back to their seats. He glanced over to see Itsuka starting to stretch. “Are you ready to give them a good show?” He asked, taking off his outer jacket and warming up himself.
“Definitely,” Itsuka starts cautiously, sizing Izuku up. She knows he doesn’t have a quirk but isn’t underestimating him—his reputation as a strategic genius precedes him. “You better not hold back.”
"I wouldn't dream of it," Izuku replied and took a ready stance.
Midnight looked between the two. “Are you two ready?” She asked and waited for them to give her a nod. ““Let the 8th Match Begin!””
Without hesitation, Itsuka enlarged her hands, which swelled to enormous size with a quick burst of her quirk.
But Izuku was calm. With a deep breath, he stepped into the first motion of the Green Ranger Kata. His movements are fluid graceful, yet packed with purpose. He pivots just before Kendo's fist could make contact, twisting out of the way like water flowing around a rock. The audience gasps at the seamless dodge.
‘He's faster than I thought… but I’ll overpower him.’ Itsuka thought as she kept up her attacks to keep him on the defensive. ‘But Tiger Style is all about pressure. I’ll break his rhythm.’
Itsuka didn't let up. She continued her assault, swinging her fists in sharp, precise arcs. Each punch is delivered with the strength and speed of a tiger's paw swipe, aiming to disrupt Izuku's flow. But Izuku, with his calm focus, weaves through her attacks, never letting her land a clean hit. She let out a growl at the glancing blows and deflections of her attacks, even when she changed her hand sizes mid-swing.
Itsuka launched another punch, this time a sweeping backhand. Izuku dips low into a crouch, then surges forward, his hand snapping out in a precise, open-palm strike to the side of Itsuka's knee. This is a key principle of the Green Ranger Kata—using an opponent’s momentum against them while targeting weak points.
Itsuka stumbled slightly from the blow, but she quickly regained her footing. She snarls and brings her other fist down in an overhead smash.
Izuku channels the next phase of the kata. He moves in sync with her attack, letting her power follow through while he uses minimal energy to evade. His movements are as fluid as a wave cresting just out of reach. As Kendo's giant fist crashed down, Izuku used the opening to deliver two rapid jabs to her abdomen, softening her up for what was to come.
‘The kata teaches us to be patient and adapt with the flow. Use Itsuka's power against her.' Izuku thought as he ducked under another swipe from Itsuka's fierce attacks. He recalled the training program with Tommy and took the lessons of his style to heart.
The blows are precise and fast—Izuku moved like lightning, striking vital points with pinpoint accuracy. He knew that Itsuka's size and strength gave her an advantage, but he was relying on the Green Ranger Kata’s principle of redirection and quick, powerful counters.
Itsuka adjusted, realizing that if she wanted to land a blow, she had to break Izuku's tempo. Tiger Style teaches its practitioners to switch between high and low, fast and slow, to keep the opponent off balance.
Suddenly, Itsuka shifted gears. She enlarged her fists and lunged forward with a massive downward strike, the power behind it creating a gust of wind. Izuku, using the kata’s signature fluidity, dodged just in time, his body twisting gracefully out of the way. But Itsuka doesn’t stop there—she immediately retracts her fist and follows up with a low, sweeping kick, an unorthodox move in Tiger Style designed to catch him off guard.
The kick connected, and Izuku stumbled backward, his rhythm momentarily broken. The crowd gasped.
Itsuka pressed the advantage. She roars like a tiger and charges, her fists once again alternating between normal size and enlarged, delivering powerful strikes in a rapid flurry. The sheer force of her attacks shakes the ground beneath them. Izuku barely managed to deflect most of them, but he knows he can’t keep this up forever. ‘She’s using her power and unpredictability to throw me off… I need to regain control.’ Izuku thought as she landed a few punches to his chest and face.
Izuku and Itsuka continued to exchange blows with one another, each pushing the other to swap from offensive to defense.
When the screen flashed green, Izuku lept back and wiped the sweat from his face. “Are you ready to kick it up a notch, Itsuka?” he asked, holding his Morpher with one hand.
"Definitely," Itsuka replied, slipping on her Solar Morpher sunglasses over her eyes. "I'm going to win this."
“It's Morphin Time!/ "Jungle Beasts, Spirits Unleashed!"
“Sabertooth Tiger!” Izuku called out. “Mighty Morphin Yellow Ranger!”
“Spirit of the Tiger,” Itsuka said, taking a ready stance. “Jungle Fury Red Ranger.”
Izuku said, cracking his knuckles. “I plan to make it to the next round.”
Itsuka shook her head. “Well, see about that." She bounced from foot to foot
"IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A CATFIGHT, LADIES AND GENTS! Present Mic boomed over the speakers.
Izuku and Itsuka froze before turning to look at the announcer's booth. “Really?” They asked together.
Midnight facepalmed. “Good lord.” She grumbled.
The stadium started to laugh, grumble, and more glares were sent up at the announcer in question.
Miruko was snickering at the joke.
“Please stop,” Ryuykyu said with a deep sigh. “It's not that funny.”
Mt. Lady let out a short snort. "It's kinda funny,”
“Grandma, What is a catfight?" Eri asked, tilting her head slightly in an adorable way.
Raphtalia nodded her head. “Are they going to make cats fight during Papa’s fight?”
Nana had to bite her lip to keep from laughing as she watched her Mother's eye start to twitch.
"It was a bad joke, sweetie," Inko said with a fake smile on her face. "Why don't you two watch your Papa's match.”
“Okay,” Both girls replied before returning their attention.
Inko let out a low growl and planned on having words with Present Mic until she felt Rei pull her close.
“Breath, dear,: Rei whispered. “No need to cause bodily harm.”
Inko let out an annoyed sigh. “Fine,” She relented and let her shoulders sag. “But I want you to hold me until the match is over.”
“Deal.” Rei giggled.
All of a sudden, they heard, "Ouch! What was that for Vlad!"
"You know why!" Vlad King said in a tired voice.
Student Waiting Area.
“Izuku, do you mind changing forms?” Midnight asked, rubbing her face with her hand. “For obvious reasons.”
“Sure thing,” Izuku replied, changing the coin in his Morpher. “Dragonzord!” A flash of green replaced him with the Green Power Ranger. "Better?"
“Yes,” Itsuka replied, shaking her head. “Ready to get this show back on the road?”
Izuku took a familiar stance. “What are we waiting for?” He paused for just a moment before launching into a spin kick.
“GO ZUZU!” Mei shouted and cheered.
Kinoko cupped her hand around her mouth. “Go Itsuka! You got this!”
"Izuku has got this," Kyoka said as he watched Izuku take a kick to the chest. "Oof.”
Ochako was bouncing with excitement. "Izuku will win this." She said, smiling brightly. "Get her, Izuku!" Ochako watched her boyfriend take several hits before returning several of his own.
“Don't underestimate Itsuka,” Shoji mused with his arms crossed as he focused his attention on the match.
“I don't care who wins,” Raphael said, leaning back in his chair. “This fight is getting good.”
Itsuka grew frustrated when her next few attacks missed and decided to charge in full force. She closed the gap with incredible speed and swung both of her giant fists downward, aiming to crush Izuku beneath them.
But Izuku anticipated the attack. He leapt into the air with incredible timing, his body twisting mid-air, channeling his training from Rumi. The kata's flowing movements enhance his agility and precision, and his acrobatic display leaves the crowd awestruck.
At the apex of his jump, he twists his body into a mid-air spin kick—his leg snapping out like a whip and landing a powerful blow on the side of Itsuka's head. The spinning aerial kick, a signature move of the Green Ranger Kata, lands perfectly. Itsuka staggers but doesn't fall.
As Izuku lands, his feet touch the ground like a feather, already preparing for the next phase of combat.
‘I can’t let him get inside my guard again.’ Itsuka thought while shaking her head to clear it. She roared in frustration, swinging her enlarged fists in a wild barrage of punches. Her fists create shockwaves that blew back dust and debris. However, Izuku, now fully in sync with the Green Ranger Kata, continues to evade and counter with astonishing fluidity. His movements are sharp and decisive.
Izuku ducked, dodged, and parried with grace. He weaves through Itsuka's attacks, each motion connected to the next, a dance of martial prowess. Whenever Itsuka missed, Izuku counters with a rapid series of open-palm strikes to her joints—wrists, elbows, shoulders—areas where her enlarged fists provide limited protection.
Each strike landed with precision, as though he was following a carefully choreographed routine, overwhelming her defenses. The fluidity of the Green Ranger Kata is on full display. Izuku doesn’t waste energy or time—he flowed from one move to the next, always a step ahead.
Itsuka's body is beginning to feel the effects of the continuous counters. ‘My arms are growing heavy, and I'm getting slower.’
Sensing an opportunity, Izuku shifts to the final phase of the kata. The crowd is on the edge of their seats. Despite her fatigue, Itsuka musters one last powerful attack, enlarging both fists to their maximum size and lunging forward with all her might.
Izuku sidestepped at the last second, moving like a breeze, letting her fists crash into the ground where he once stood. The impact is massive, shaking the arena, but it leaves Itsuka wide open.
Itsuka knows she needs to end this quickly. Drawing from the core principles of Tiger Style, she increases her ferocity. Her subsequent attacks were delivered with a brutal, animalistic intensity. Tiger Style relies on fast, relentless strikes, aiming to overwhelm an opponent with sheer force.
She enlarges her fists once more, aiming for a powerful uppercut, hoping to break through Izuku's defenses. Izuku, flowing like water, manages to avoid the blow, but Itsuka adapts. She feinted with one fist and landed a swift knee strike to his side, pushing him back.
Seeing her opening, Itsuka drops into a low stance and pounces like a tiger, tackling Izuku to the ground. She raises her enlarged fist, ready to finish him with a crushing blow.
Just as Itsuka’s massive fist came down, Izuku shifted his weight and redirected her momentum with the Green Ranger Kata's fluidity. His hands press against her forearm, pushing her off balance just enough to roll free.
As he gets back to his feet, he enters the final phase of the Green Ranger Kata—a combination of speed, precision, and overwhelming counters. He knows he has to finish this before Itsuka can regroup.
Itsuka panted from her relentless offensive and charged again, her fists normal-sized now, aiming to end the fight with pure strength.
Izuku moved like the wind around her punches, ducking, dodging, and slipping through the gaps in her attacks. With every missed strike, he lands precise counters: a palm strike to Itsuka’s shoulder, a quick kick to her shin, and an elbow to her ribs. Each move is fluid, and each strike landed perfectly.
The Green Ranger Kata was in full effect, and the crowd could feel the tide turning.
Itsuka roars in frustration, throwing a wild punch with all her strength. But Izuku, calm and focused, sidesteps the punch, and with the kata’s final move, he delivers a powerful spinning kick to Itsuka's side, sending her skidding across the arena.
Without hesitation, Izuku dashed forward, his fists glowing with intent. He unleashed a devastating series of rapid-fire punches to Itsuka’s torso and sides—each blow aimed with surgical precision to sap her strength. This final combination, a culmination of the Green Ranger Kata, overwhelms Itsuka's defenses.
With one final strike—a powerful, spinning back kick delivered to Itsuka's midsection—Izuku sends her flying backward. Itsuka skidded across the arena floor, her quirk deactivating as she lay on the ground, breathing heavily and unable to stand.
“Itsuka, can you continue?” Midnight asked, kneeling beside her.
“No,” Itsuka grunted and flashed red for a moment before returning to her normal form.
Midnight nodded her head. "The winner of this round is Izuku Midoryai!” She announced to the crowd before turning her microphone back off. “Can you stand?”
“I’ll help her,” Izuku said, flashing green to end his morph, and offered Itsuka a hand. "You put up a great fight."
Itsuka got to her feet with another grunt and rubbed her stomach. “I want a rematch,” She said with a determined look on her face. “That was one of the best fights I have had in ages.”
“Sounds good to me,” Izuku chuckled. “I could use more practice with my martial arts training. Feel free to join Hitoshi and I during our morning sessions.” He offered her a hand.
“I just might take you up on that,” Itsuka replied, shaking his hand.
“What great sportsmanship and camaraderie! How about a big hand for these two!” Midnight told the crowd. "With this match's conclusion, we now move on to the semi-finals!" She waited for the crowd to settle down a bit before continuing. "Now, here are a few announcements before we take a 20-minute break and start the next round. Mei Hatsume has been removed from the tournament due to being declared medically unfit. That means that Mina Ashido will move on to the finals." Again, Midnight waited for the crowd to calm down. “The next round of matches will be Tsuyu Asui vs Ibara Shiozaki and Momo Yaoyorozu vs Izuku Midoryia. Take this opportunity to get a snack and use the restrooms because you don't want to miss these matches coming up!”

Chapter Text
Izuku accepted a bottle of water from Itsuka as they headed back to the student area. “You sure you don't want to stay with Recovery Girl?” He asked, taking a long draft of water. “That blow to the head was pretty solid.”
“I'm fine,” Itsuka replied with a roll of her eyes. “She cleared me of any possible concussions.” She took a drink from her own bottle. “Any chance I can use the training programs you’ve been using?”
"Sure," Izuku replied with a nod. "I'll have DECA give you access to the training archives," He gave her a slight grin. "I know that your Tiger Style is no joke, and learning from the Jungle Fury Rangers will make you even more of a fierce warrior."
“Works for me,” Itsuka replied, holding out a fist. “Make my rematch victory all the sweeter.”
Izuku snorted. "Dream on," He joked and finished the fist-bump. "How about after our internships, we have that rematch?"
Itsuka gave him a wide grin. "Guess that means I need to find a really good internship that will help me prepare." She said, tossing her empty bottle into the trash can. "Have any suggestions?"
“I’ll help you out after the festival,” Izuku replied when he felt a pair of arms assemble around his waist. “Setsuna?”
“That's me,” Setsuna purred, resting her chin on Izuku's shoulder and blew in his ear. “Figured I’d steal you away for a few moments.” She nipped his ear carefully with her sharp teeth.
Itsuka shook her head. “On that note, I am out of here.” She said with a wave of her hand. “Don't be gone too long!”
Setsuna flashed the orangette a mischievous smile. "Say hi to Shoji for me~." She teased and laughed when Itsuka froze for a moment before running off.
Izuku sighed and turned his head to glare at his girlfriend. “That wasn't very nice,” He lightly scolded the lizard girl.
"I was just joking, babe," Setsuna separated into dozens of pieces and reassembled in front of Izuku, capturing his lips in a quick kiss. "Now, I have you all to myself." Setsuna pulled him to a small alcove and pushed his back against the wall. "Kiss me,"
Izuku flashed her a gentle smile. "As you wish," He murmured before pressing his lips against her and wrapping his arms around her waist to pull her flush to his chest. "Not that I am complaining, but what brought this on?"
“Watching you fight got me all hot and bothered,” Setsuna mewled before aggressively attacking his lips. She slipped her arms around his neck and gripped his hair with both hands.
Izuku pulled back to look Setsuna in the eyes. “We need to get back to the others soon,” He said with a pant.
"I set a timer," Setsuna replied quickly, wrapping a leg around Izuku's back. "Less talking, handsome, more kissing."
Izuku did as she requested and resumed their kiss.
Can I get Tsuyu Asui and Ibara Shiozaki to report to the ring for their Match!

Mina was grinning like a loon when Izuku and Setsuan finally returned. “Nice of you to finally join us~,” She teased with a Chesire grin. Mina took in Setsuna's slightly swollen lips, and Izuku was fixing his long hair by putting it back in its long ponytail. "You look like you had a good time."
“Yup,” Setsuan replied with a slight blush on her face.
Toru snickered, and her eyes flashed with mischief. “Dibs on Izuku’s lap!” She called quickly.
“Drat,” Pony pouted.
Toru pulled Izuku Izuku toward his seat and sat on one of his knees. “Hey Kyoka, want to share his lap with me?”
Kyoka raised an eyebrow before nodding her head. "I'm down." She said, moving from her seat to sit on Izuku's free leg.
“Hey Listeners! It's time to start the Quarter-Finals!” Present Mic announced. "First off, we have the agile Amphibian Lass with Legs of Steel, Tsuyu Asui!” He paused as the crowd cheered and whistled. “Facing off against the reincarnation of Mother Nature herself, the Fierce Lioness, Ibara Shiosaki!
Tsu stood across Ibara with a determined look on her face. "I look forward to our Match. Kero.” She said, shifting her stance slightly. "I will be moving on to the next round." She places a hand on her bracelet.
"I will not make it easy for you," Ibara replied, and her vines began to twitch and quiver. "I plan on making it to the next round as well."
“We’ll see. Kero.” Tsu croaked.
Midnight looked between the two girls. “Are you both ready?” She asked and made sure each one of them nodded their head. “Let the 1st round of the Quarter-Finals Begin!”
Tsu dropped into a crouch and launched her tongue at Ibara to try and win the Match quickly, but Ibara used her vines to block her attempt and retaliated with several vines to grab Tsu. "It was worth a shot. Kero.” She said, leaping with gymnastic-level grace to evade the thorns on Ibara’s vines.
"That is was," Ibara agreed before sending countess vines across the floor toward Tsu, trying to catch the amphibian girl in a blind spot. She redirected her vines when Tsu leapt high into the air to avoid the attack with ease. "Tricky little frog." Ibara changed the direction of her whirling vines to keep Tsu on her back foot while she put her plan into action to defeat her before Morphers are allowed.
Tsu launched her tongue at the floor and used it to pull her quickly toward Ibara. Her goal was to disorient Ibara with quick, unpredictable movements. She was forced to jump back when Ibara retaliated by spinning her vines around her like a tornado, creating a barrier. "This won't stop me," She croaked, trying to come at Ibara from several different angles to break through the swirling vines.

"Damn," Raphael said with a low whistle. "Tsu is not holding anything back. He crossed his arms as he watched Tsu continue to leap around Ibara.
"Tsu is very driven," Fumikage said with a hint of sadness in his voice. "She is letting her emotions get the best of her." He watched as his girlfriend tried to brute force her way past Ibara’s vines, and her uniform was starting to get torn by the thorns.
Kinoko was gripping her hands tightly as she watched Tsu struggling against Ibara. "Come on, Tsu," She whispered. "You can do this. Shroom.”
“Tsu, please stop this,” Ibara said as she managed to graze one of Tsu’s legs with her vines and left a shallow cut. “I don’t want to hurt you any further.” Ibara only needed a few more minutes before she could enact her plan.
Tsu shook her head with a defiant look on her face. "I can't," She said between breaths. "I need to get stronger, and I can't do that if I quit."
Ibara nodded her head. "I respect your convictions, Tsu, She said in a respectful tone. "Then I will give you my best." She closed her eyes, and the stone floor beneath them started to tremble and shake. Ibara’s eyes snapped open.
Midnight stumbled but managed to stop herself from falling, thanks to years of honed reflexes and training. "What in the world?"
Tsu’s instincts screamed at her to move, and she leaped high into the air. Hundreds of vines erupted from the ground, one after another. "Not good," Kero," Tsu grunted angrily as she launched her tongue at one of the open spots on the ring floor and pulled herself to safety before being forced to jump again.
"This is the end of the line, Tsu," Ibara said softly as she moved all the vines at Tsu at the same time. Ibara moved her arms gracefully as they moved in waves at Tsu at different heights to catch her mid-jump.
“Not like this,” Tsu hissed as she was being pushed to the edge of the ring. “I can’t lose like this.” She jumped with everything she had and let out a cry of pain as a vine wrapped around her ankle. Tsu lost all her momentum and was unable to move when more vines wrapped around her entire body. Tsu tried one last attempt and shot her tongue at Ibara’s chest and was horrified with wines without thorns wrapped tightly around her tongue. Tsu tried to reach for her Morpher, but the Vines prevented her from doing so.
“Midnight,” Ibara said, looking at the R-18 heroine. “Please call the match.”
“Can you move Tsu?” Midnight asked, moving closer to the trapped student. She waited for Tsu to shake her head. “Ibara Shiozaki is the winner and will move on to the Semi-finals. Please allow us to repair the ring for the next Match."
“Tsuyu gave us an incredible show, but she wasn't able to outrun Mother Nature!" Present Mic said. “Give the little listener a big hand!”
“This kind of tenacity is what we expect for a Hero student even when facing someone who has them at a disadvantage.” Vlad King added.
Fumikage and Kinoko jumped from their seats and ran down toward Tsu, who had a devastated look on her face.
“Poor Tsu,” Ochako murmured at how upset her friend was.
Will Momo Yaoyorozu and Izuku Midoryia please make your way to the staging area for your Match.
Momo stood up and grinned at Izuku. “Will you escort me to the ring, daring?” She asked, cocked her hip to one side and rested a hand on the other hip.
"It would be my honor," Izuku replied, quickly kissing Toru and Kyoka before having them move off his lap. He gave his other girls each a kiss before offering his arm to Momo. "Shall we?"
“See you girls later~.” Momo teased as she linked arms with Izuku and led him.
Izuku spotted Fumikage and Kinoko running off ahead of them. “Do you think Tsu will be alright?” He asked as they made their way down to the staging area while Cementoss was working on the ring. “She looked really down when Ibara helped her to Recovery Girl.”
“I’m sure she will be fine,” Momo said, smiling softly at her kind-hearted boyfriend. “I’m sure she is just disappointed about not making it to the finals.” Momo placed a chaste kiss on Izuku’s cheek. “Fumikage and Kinoko will cheer her up.”
"You're right," Izuku replied with a bright smile. "Thanks, Momo, you are such an amazing person that I am lucky to have in my life."
"After our match, I have a surprise for you," Momo said cryptically, leaning closer enough that her lips were hair's-breadth away from his ear. "I expect you to give me a good fight, Darling~." Momo blew in his ear before playfully nipping it.
Izuku nearly stumbled. “Not fair.” He mumbled as Momo giggled at him.
Tsu was staring at the blanket over her lap as she sat on one of Recovery Girl's beds. She barely reacted when the nurse cleaned her wounds and kissed her head to heal her cuts and scrapes. "Thank you." She mumbled quietly as she looked at her bracelet.
“Tsu!” Kinoko shouted, rushed into the room, and tackled the frog girl onto her back. "Are you ok?"
"I am wondering that as well," Fumikage said, walking calmly into the room with Dark Shadow's head perched on his shoulder.
“I’m fine,” Tsu said flatly.
“Tsu,” Kinoko whispered, hugging her girlfriend tighter. "Talk to us, please. We are worried about you."
Fumikage sat on the edge of the bed and gently took Tsu’s hand into his own. "You can talk to us." He said, rubbing his thumb over Tsu’s knuckles.
“I wanted to make it to the finals,” Tsu said, her eyes shining with unshed tears. “I want to get stronger to save Hakubo.” She closed her eyes as tears ran down her face. “I-I need to save my friend.” Tsu hugged the mushroom girl tighter as she started to break down.
"Oh, Tsu, you have been pushing yourself too hard," Kinoko murmured as she let Tsu express all of her bottled-up emotions for the past few weeks. "You will save your friend and Fumi, and I will be there to help."
“It’s true,” Fumikage agreed and bowed his head until it rested against Tsu’s. “We will be right beside you.”
Dark Shadow patted Tsu on the head. “We are a team, remember?”
Tsu nodded her head. “Thank you. Kero.” She croaked and held on to her mates with everything she had.
Recovery Girl smiled and pretended to work on paperwork. “You three can stay for now,” She said, making the trio jump at remembering she was in the room. “You can watch the next match on the TV if you want.”
The trio adjusted themselves on the bed, ensuring that Tsu sat in the middle with Kinoko’s and Fumikage’s arms wrapped around her.
Izuku and Momo were on their way to the waiting area when he spotted Shoto and Reiko walking toward them, and Lady Nagant was walking a few steps behind them. "Hey," He said with a wave. “Everything alright?”
“We just got lost exploring the area,” Reiko said with a shrug of her shoulders.
Shoto nodded his head. "We had an unexpected guest, but it's been taken care of." He finished lowering his eyes slightly.
“Who?” Momo asked, narrowing her eyes at her pair.
Lady Nagant cleared her throat. “We can talk about this later,” She said in a tone that told them to drop the matter. “Nezu is aware of what happened and will brief you after the Sports Festival.”
Izuku nodded his head. "Ok, see you in a bit, Mom," He said with a smirk.
"Scamp," Lady Nagant snorted and walked over to place a motherly kiss on her son's cheek. "Have fun, you two, and for the love of god, remember to keep it PG. Your daughters will be watching."
Momo gave her the best innocent smile she could muster. "I don't know what you are talking about," She tapped her chin with a finger. "I am a Lady, after all." Momo's face became one the Heiress would use for public events with her parents. Prim, proper, and regal.
Lady Nagant gave her a flat stare. “Keep telling yourself that, Princess," She retorted with a wave of her hand. "Go before they have to wait on you two."
"Yes, Ma'am," Momo chirped, patting Izuku on the arm. "Come along Darling, we have an appointment to get to."
Izuku chuckled. “Yes, dear,” He followed Momo’s lead and waved as they walked away.
“They are adorable,” Reiko cooed.
"That they are," Lady Nagant agreed with a sigh. "Be around them long enough, and you will need insulin or a garden hose." She waved Shoto and Reiko forward. "Let's get you to the student area before anyone else shows up."
“WE ARE WELCOMING BACK THE ILLUSTRIOUS MISTRESS OF CREATION AND SERGEANT IN THE POWER RANGERS! MOMO YAOYOROZU!”. Present Mic introduced enthusiastically. FACING OFF AGAINST HER LEADER AND BOYFRIEND WITH SKILLS FOR DAYS IZUKU MIDORIYA!”
Izuku and Momo's arms were still linked and holding hands as they waved at the crowd. They shared a kiss, which filled the stadium with awe and cooing from the audience before separating.
"You know, Darling," Momo began, her voice light and teasing. "I am really looking forward to our Match. Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you are so determined to win.” Her eyes sparkled as she said it, giving him a hungry look. Her tone was playful yet confident.
Izuku blinked before chuckling. “I wouldn’t expect anything less than your best, Dear,” He figured that she would try to fluster him with her flirtatious words. “I will give you my very best.”
Momo giggled and blew him a kiss before slowly unzipping her jacket and letting it fall off her shoulder to reveal her black t-shirt. "That's sweet of you to say, Darling," she replied smoothly, her voice almost a purr. "But you'd better be ready to handle me.” She winked at him and gave him a competitive look while licking her lips.
Izuku felt his cheeks grow warm from her teasing.
Midnight watched from the sidelines as Momo flirted with Izuku, a playful smirk forming on her lips. After the brief exchange, she approached Momo, her heels clicking with confidence as she stopped just close enough to be heard without drawing too much attention.
"Well done, Momo," Midnight purred, crossing her arms and giving her a sly grin. "I have to say, I'm impressed. Flirting with your opponent right before the Match? Bold. Very bold."
Momo flashed her wide smile. "Thank you, Midnight," she said, slightly rolling her shoulders and raising her ample chest. "I am just ensuring this is an exhilarating match for us."
Midnight raised a finger. "No need to explain, my dear. Confidence is key, and you showed that beautifully. You didn’t just throw him off balance; you reminded him—and everyone else—that you’re more than just brains and battle tactics." She winked, her expression softening. "You've got charm, and you’re not afraid to use it. That’s something to be proud of." She gave Momo a wink. “Talk to me after you match.”
“I suddenly have a bad feeling about this,” Izuku mumbled as he watched his sister and girlfriend sharing an excited look.
Midnight just gave him a mischievous grin. “Are you two love birds ready to start?” She asked, looking forward to the show she was about to get.
"Ready," Momo said, widening her stance and preparing to create any item she needed.
Izuku let out a deep breath and slid his right foot forward. “Ready.”
“Begin!” Midnight barked and stepped back as the pair rushed forward.
“Hiyah!” Izuku shouted as he launched into a spin kick.
Momo kept her eyes on Izuku as she created a small buckler shield with her left hand to block his kick. "I hope you're not still flustered from earlier, Darling," She purred, reaching down the front of her shirt and pulling out an Escrima stick from between her cleavage. “I want you at your best.”
Izuku leaned away to avoid being hit by the stick. His face flushed a slight pink at her plan to keep him off-kilter by using her body. "I won't disappoint, dear!" Izuku retaliated with several snap kicks and a few quick jabs that Momo deftly blocked with her shield. He tried to get into a rhythm to get a leg up on their fight, but Momo was able to keep him off balance by creating random items that fell on the ground or a small firework that popped.
Momo slipped under Izuku's guard and hip-checked him hard enough to make him stumble. "You know that I admire your tenacity, Darling,” she said between strikes of her Escrima stick. “The other girls have talked about your stamina and drive.” Momo gave him a feral smile. “I want to test that myself.”
Midnight cackled as she watched her brother blush grow at Momo's aggressive flirting. "I wish I had some popcorn for this," She mused as she watched Izuku kick the shield out of Momo's hand. She blinked a few times when a drone arrived beside her with said popcorn and a note.
Keep it PG, please.
Nezu.
Midnight nodded and accepted her snack as she watched Momo grab Izuku by the arm and flip him over her shoulder in a judo flip. "Best seat in the house."

“Do we want to know?” Ochako asked as Izuku rolled back to his feet and jumped away.
Kyoka laughed. “Momo is making Midnight very proud with her flirting,” She said with a smirk. “Gotta say she has his heart beating pretty hard.”
Setsuna pretended to wipe her eyes. "I'm so proud of her," She sniffed.
Private Box
Miruko was grinning with pride at seeing Izuku use more of the kick she taught him. "Come on, Izuku, you got this!"
“Momo is not going to make it easy,” Moka tittered as she sipped on a glass of wine, watching her daughter stumble after Izuku landed a kick to her thigh. "We may need to move up the wedding at this rate."
“Please don’t joke about that,” Laura groaned, not ready to see her daughter walk down the aisle anytime soon.”
"Ten bucks, Momo does something after the match, win or lose," Mt. Lady joked until Inko shot her a disapproving look. “Or not.”
Inko sighed. “Don’t jinx it.”
Ryukyu shook her head and noticed Eri looked upset. “What’s the matter, Eri?” She asked, kneeling next to the unicorn girl.
"I don't like seeing them fight," Eri said softly. "I know they are not mad at each other, but I just don't like seeing Mama Momo and Papa fighting."
"I know, sweetie," Ryukyu said, pulling the girl into a hug. "It will be over soon."
Raphtalia latched onto her sister. “We can root for both of them and hug them later on.” Her tanuki tail swayed back and forth. “I’ll cuddle you until it’s over.
"Ok," Eri replied, latching onto her sister as the Match continued.
Izuku ducked under Momo’s escrima stick and moved in when he saw an opening. He pivoted under her attack in a blur of motion, grabbing her arm and twisting it just enough to throw her off balance. Izuku locked her arm in place and put her into a chokehold. He made sure his grip was firm but not painful. "Submit." He grunted as Momo was taller than him, and he was trying to keep his leverage.
Momo's eyes widened for a moment before a smirk slowly spread across her face. "Oh, Darling," She purred, turning her head enough to glance at him with the corner of her eye. "I didn't think you would be so bold. I like it." Momo giggled and created several small black orbs that fell from her free hand, surrounding them in a small cloud of thick white smoke. “Harder, Darling.”
Izuku's face went a bright red, and he had to force himself to focus on maintaining his grip while his heart raced not only from Momo's flirting but also from the intensity of the Match. “W-What?’ He stuttered as he felt Momo laughing. Izuku nearly jumped when Momo's free hand moved and grabbed his crotch in a firm grip.
“I think you like me in this position,” Momo teased and kept his bits in a firm grip. “Maybe we can do this again with nothing on.”
Izuku froze as Momo boldly fondled him. He let his grip slip enough that she twisted her body enough to shift the balance between them and ease the tension on her arm. "But that will have to wait until we have more privacy." She noticed the smoke was starting to dissipate. Momo pulled Izuku's face into her massive chest and held him there for a few moments before grabbing Izuku's pants and shirt and tossed him across the ring like a sack of corn.
“Gah!” Izuku grunted as he bounded a few times and rolled back to his feet a few feet from the edge. “That was not very lady-like.” He glanced over to see Midnight biting her bottom lip to keep from laughing. “No. One Word.”
"All is fair in love and war, Darling," Momo said, walking with a seductive sway of her hips. "Well, it's almost time for the foreplay to come to an end." She pulled out her Morpher. "Time for the main event, and I want you to make sure this fight is climactic until the end.
“I’m so proud,” Midnight beamed at Momo. She had a sudden idea and smiled evilly at her brother as this was going to be fun.
Izuku shot her a scowl. “Not helping, Sis,” He growled as he shifted his Morpher into a green and gold sphere. He would worry about Midnight’s smile later.
Midnight finished her popcorn and shrugged. “Not here to help you,” She replied with her eyes twinkling. “I can’t wait to tell the others all about this.”
Izuku groaned.
“I’m waiting, darling,” Momo said with a playful pout.
“It’s Morphin Time!” Izuku extended his Morpher in front of him. “Samurai Storm, Ranger Form! Ha!” He was covered in a flash of green. “Green Samurai Ranger.”
"Go. Go, Samurai!" Momo drew her helmet logo in front of her. “Red Samurai Ranger!
“WHOO! WE ARE GETTING AN OLD SCHOOL SAMURAI SHOWDOWN!” Present Mic shouted. “HOLD ON TO YOUR SEATS EVERYONE!”
Izuku drew his Samurai Saber, rested it on his shoulder, and tilted his head to the side while he waited for Momo to draw her Spin Sword. "Ladies first," He said, taking a ready stance.
"How kind of you," Momo replied before rushing forward and starting their clash. Their swords clashed and sparked as she put Izuku on the defensive. Momo watched as Izuku showed off his flexibility by bending and twisting out of the way of several of her powerful attacks. "I love to see how limber you are, darling." She purred and locked blades with him. "I can't wait to see just how flexible you are in the bedroom.”
“You’re gonna have to earn it," Izuku shot back, using his speed to his advantage to deflect Momo's attacks. Izuku knew that Momo was stronger than him and had a sturdier skeleton and denser muscular structure. He managed to make a few shallow blows to Momo's side or leg before being forced to roll away. "Stop snickering. Midnight, I can hear you."
"Not happening, kiddo," Midnight replied with a snort. "Keep it up, Momo, let out your inner Ara ara.”
“You handle your sword so masterfully,” Momo said in a husky voice. “I wonder if it can fit in my sheath or if you will stretch it out.” She spun the disk of her sword and let the flames cover her blade. “Time to heat things up, Darling!”
Izuku dived out of the way, tucked his arms into the roll, landed back on his feet, and pointed his sword at Momo. "Need to remember to order a lot of water," He mumbled, rolling away from another wave of fire. "And get revenge on my sister."
Pyria was on the edge of her seat as she watched her half-brother fighting one of the most beautiful women she had ever seen in an epic sword fight. Izumi had a huge love for samurai movies and shows, and watching the two clash made it seem like the world was ending. The more she watched her brother fight, the more respect she had for him being Quirkless.
She wanted to meet him and ask him dozens of questions about how it felt to be a Ranger. How he got so many women to fall for him, and so many different topics she wanted to approach. She glanced over and shook her head to see her brothers and Mom texting away on their phones with bored expressions on their faces. At least her Dad was paying attention to the Match.
Hisashi's mind raced at how well-connected his son was with the Heiress of the Yaoyorozu family. If he reconnected with Izuku, he would bring millions of dollars from the girl's parents to his bosses. They could allow his company a foothold in his native country and possibly lead to his promotion to bigger and better things.
Izuku ran his hand over his Saber, the blade humming to life as a radiant green glow pulsed along its edge. Energy crackled at his fingertips, his muscles coiling like a spring before he launched himself at Momo. His heart pounded in his chest, every ounce of his focus locked on her stance, her expression—calculating, unshaken, ready.
“Take this!” he roared, his hands tightening around the hilt as he swung down with all his might.
Momo’s eyes flashed. With a sharp inhale, she brought up her Spin Sword, its blade igniting in a burst of swirling red and gold flames. The moment their weapons met, an explosion of heat and energy erupted between them. Sparks flew like fireworks, a shockwave rippling through the air, shaking the ground beneath their feet.
For a moment, neither blade yielded. The two forces clashed in a raw battle of will, their glowing weapons crackling against each other, green light and fire twisting in a chaotic dance. Izuku gritted his teeth, pushing down with everything he had, feeling the heat of Momo’s sword threaten to burn through his guard. But Momo wasn’t backing down—her arms trembled under the strain, but her grip held firm.
She twisted her blade with a burst of power, redirecting Izuku's strike to the side. His footing staggered for a second—just enough for Momo to counter. She pivoted, flames surging along her sword as she swung up in a rising arc.
Izuku barely reacted in time, jerking his Saber up in a desperate block. The impact sent him skidding back, his boots dragging across the ground, the heat licking at his skin. His arms ached from the force, but he didn't let go.
They stared at each other for a second, breaths heavy, eyes locked. The space between them hummed with residual energy, the air charged with the aftermath of their clash.
Then, with a mutual burst of speed, they lunged at each other once more, blades igniting the battlefield with the fury of their fight.
Momo held out her hand a black box with a gold trim, and a lotus flower appeared out of nowhere and landed in her palm. "Hope you can keep up with me, dear Izuku." She teased by attaching the box to her weapon. Momo opened the Black Box, placed a gold disk inside, and shut it. “Super Samurai Mode!” A long white two-tailed cloak with the Black Box symbol adorned on the back appeared over Momo and merged with her Ranger suit. She took a two-handed, ready stance.
"Guess I need to step it up as well," Izuku sheathed his Saber and placed his hands on the bottom of his vest that was attached to his suit's belt. The 4 pointed star on his belt buckle glowed momentarily, and Izuku pushed the vest off his shoulders, landed on the ground with a loud boom, and gave in the concrete under its weight, and his helmet spun around, revealing the beak-like visor. "Super Samurai Mode, Ninja Storm Style." Izuku drew his Saber and kept it pointed at the ground.
The arena fell silent as both Izuku and Momo stood stone-still.

“Man, the tension between those two are intense,” Kirishima said, leaning forward in his seat as the anticipation of their eventual clash continued to grow.
“Why are they just standing there?” Rin asked. The crowd started to murmur as the action-packed match came to a grinding halt.
Leonardo narrowed his eyes slowly. "They are having a battle in their minds." He said, gesturing to Izuku and Momo. "Master Splinter once told us that when two swordsmen face off, it is mostly a mental battle. They will clash over and over again in their mind, looking for a moment to strike." Leonardo crossed his arms. "I have had similar moments myself. They will strike any moment."
Toru fidgeted in her seat. “I wish they would hurry up,” She murmured as her tail twitched and her skin shifted a slight orange. “All this tension is making me anxious.”
Mei reached over and held Toru’s hand. “Zuzu will make this a heck of a show." She said, pointing at Momo. "She is about to move. Her legs just tensed."
Momo vanished in a blur of red and white, her speed so sudden that the air cracked in her wake. Izuku barely had a moment to react before he brought up his Saber, instincts kicking in. A split second later, he vanished in a streak of green and gold.
The first clash rang out like a thunderstrike. Sparks burst into existence as their blades met, their forms flickering in and out of visibility across the ring like phantoms locked in combat. Shadows stretched and twisted under the rapid-fire flashes of steel.
Izuku reappeared on one knee, Saber raised in a desperate block against Momo's overhead strike. He grit his teeth as the force of the impact sent vibrations down his arms, his boots grinding against the stone as he struggled to hold his ground. Momo's eyes burned with intensity, her blade pressing down relentlessly. Then—
They vanished again.
A heartbeat later, they reappeared mid-strike. Momo barely twisted in time, but Izuku's blade nicked her side, forcing a sharp inhale through clenched teeth. She faltered, falling back—but before gravity could claim her, she vanished in another burst of speed.
Izuku barely had time to react before the following exchange began. The cycle continued—vanishing, clashing, striking, evading—each move more brutal than the last. Sweat dripped down Izuku's brow as his breath turned ragged. He felt his muscles burning, his grip tightening on the Saber with each near miss. Every reappearance showed a new battle scar—clothes singed, bruises forming, the occasional red line where a strike nearly cut too deep.
Then—
Izuku crashed onto the ground face-first with an audible thud. A sharp gasp tore from his lips. Above him, Momo loomed, her Saber aimed at his neck, her stance a coiled spring ready to end it.
For a single, tense second, everything stilled.
Then, with a flash of light, they disappeared again—only the ringing echoes of their fight remained, hanging in the air like ghosts of war.
This is an epic showdown, folks!" Present Mic boomed as he bounced in his chair and spotted various images of their fight going back and forth.

"Like, is anyone keeping up with them?" Michelangelo asked as he rubbed his eyes. "I'm getting a headache just trying to follow them.
“I can,” Leonardo said as his head moved in several directions. “Momo is trying to overpower her opponent, but Izuku is using his speed to counter her.”
Setsuna was grinning ear to ear as she was able to see them every so often. "It's like an Anime where we see the afterimage of them fighting!"
Pony was out of her seat and gripped the rail in excitement. "It's so incredible! Go Izuku!"
Kyoka ear jacks were tracking the movements. “I can't tell what they are saying,” She said, shaking her head. “They are talking too fast. Momo, for the most part."
“Oh, Darling~," Momo purred as she ducked over Izuku's attack and managed to land a kick to the center of his chest. "This has my blood pumping and makes me want your lips on my body."
Izuku rolled from the kick and had to quickly deflect another attack from her Spin Sword and swept her feet out from under her. “You’re not gonna trick me again.” He said, landing a few quick slashes as Momo tried to get back to her feet. “Have you been taking lessons from Midnight?” He glanced over at his sister, who was practically frozen in time with how fast they were moving.
Momo let out a very high-pitched giggle. "No, but I would like to pick her mind on a few ideas for the bedroom." She shuddered as she leapt into a spin attack to keep her love on the defensive. "I shall shower you in my love tonight since I have you all to myself. I already ordered plenty of water and snacks to be delivered to our room." Momo let out a grunt as Izuku landed a kick to her left thigh that made her stumble, and she barely managed to block his attack with her sword. "My panties are positively soaked~.” Her voice came out in a low, needy moan.
"I need to end this now," Izuku muttered to himself as his face was burning bright red under his helmet, and his mind was being flooded with so many images of Momo's panties that it almost caused him to miss an enhanced punch to his face.
With another surge of energy, Izuku pushed forward, his green-glowing Saber clashing against Momo's flaming blade in a rapid exchange of strikes. Their weapons blurred sparks flying in every direction as they moved faster, each blow more precise, more desperate.
Momo lunged, spinning into a powerful downward slash, flames roaring to life along the edge of her sword. Izuku sidestepped just in time, the heat searing past his face. He tightened his grip and pivoted, sweeping his Saber in a calculated arc.
CLANG!
The moment their blades met, Izuku twisted his wrist and slid his Saber down the length of Momo's sword, locking her weapon in place. Before she could react, he wrenched his blade upward with a sharp flick—Momo's sword wrenched from her grasp, flipping through the air before embedding itself into the ground a few feet away.
She barely had time to register the loss before Izuku closed the distance. In a blink, he drove forward, slamming his weight into her. Momo gasped as she lost her balance, falling backward, her breath catching as her back hit the ground.
Before she could move, Izuku was on top of her, his Saber pressing lightly against her collarbone, the green glow casting sharp shadows over her face. He loomed over her, his breaths heavy, chest rising and falling with the exhaustion of battle.
“It’s over,” Izuku panted, eyes locked onto hers, covered by her Ranger helmet, determination burning behind his emerald gaze.
Momo stared up at him, her own breath uneven, strands of dark hair clinging to her sweat-covered forehead. Silence stretched between them for a moment, the echoes of their fight still crackling in the air.
Then, slowly, Momo exhaled. “Power down,” She returned to her regular form with a small, almost begrudging smile tugging at her lips. "I yield, Darling."
Izuku blinked, his tense grip loosening slightly. Then, realizing the weight of their position, his face flushed. He sheathed his Saber. “Power down.” He scrambled back, offering a hand to help her up. “Are you ok?”
“I’m fine,” Momo took it, allowing him to pull her to her feet. “That was impressive,” she admitted, brushing dust off her uniform.
Izuku rubbed the back of his neck with a sheepish grin. "I had to if I wanted to keep up with you."
Momo chuckled, shaking her head before glancing at her fallen sword. “Next time,” she said, picking it up with a determined smirk, “I won’t go down so easily.” Momo took a step closer and pulled him into a heated kiss.
The crowd went wild with cheers and wolf whistles.
When Momo ended the kiss, Izuku couldn't help but grin, his eyes gleaming with affection. “I wouldn’t expect anything less, my Creation Queen.”
“Midnight, how long until the next match?” Momo asked, giving Midnight a wicked smile, and her eyes twinkled with mischief.
Midnight had a good idea of what Momo was about to do and gave the creation girl a Chesire grin. “You have about 15 minutes. Room 9 is the closest and is unlocked.” She pointed down one of the hallways to the waiting areas. Better hurry.”
Izuku was about to ask what they were planning when he heard a loud click and felt something around his neck. He looked down to see a gold metal collar with emerald studs around the collar with a circular medallion that read, Momo’s Personal Pet. A small gold ring was attached to the collar and connected to a gold chain that went to Momo's hand. “Oh, no.” He breathed.
“Oh, Yes," Momo retorted and started walking toward the room Midnight had suggested. "Come along, Darling. You're mine until the next match." She gave the leash a playful tug.
Midnight doubled over, laughing and beaming with pride. "Hey, Momo, How about you intern with me for the week?" She offered and watched as fear filled Izuku's eyes. "I'm sure you can use my wealth of knowledge after the internship and share it with the other girls,
Momo nodded her head excitedly. “I would love that Midnight,” She said, leading Izuku off the stage. “We’ll talk later. I have something important to do right now.”
Izuku tried to get the collar off but could not find a seam as he was pulled down the hallway while Momo whistled a happy tune. "What is my life?"
Student Viewing Area
Mina fell out of her chair laughing, with Setsuna following suit a moment later.
Ochako facepalmed. “Momo.” She groaned.
Raphael chuckled. “It’s always the prim and proper ones,” He joked as several other classmates joined in on the laughter.
Pony snickered. “Guess we know what Momo has planned for tonight.” She said with a waggle of her eyebrows.
"No kidding," Mei said with a cackle.
“Uh,” Present Mic began, shocked to see what Momo had done at the end of her Match and was at a loss for words for the first time in years. “The match goes to Izuku Midoryia!” He cleared his throat. "The next match will be Ibara Shiozaki vs. Izuku Midoriya. See who goes to the final round of the 3rd event!"
Vlad King made sure his microphone was off. “Shouta is gonna have a stroke when he watches this later," he said, knowing his fellow teacher was about things like this happening with cameras on UA.
Present Mic snorted. "No kidding." He agreed, checked his phone, and frowned. "I wonder where Tensei is today. He usually calls me to check in.”
Vlad King gave his friend a sympathetic smirk. "I'm sure he is on patrol with so many people here today." He said teasingly as he elbowed Present Mic. "I'm sure your boyfriend will check in soon."
“I hope so,” Present Mic said with a slight smirk. “We have our anniversary tonight and I planned to propose.”
Vlad King grinned at his friend. "Congrats, man. I know you two are perfect for one another." He checked the time. "Drinks are on me some time to celebrate.”
“Sounds good to me.” Present Mic said, patting the ring box in his pocket and couldn't wait for tonight to arrive.
Private Box
Inko was pinching the bridge of her nose at watching her son be led off with a collar around his neck. "Lord, give me strength.” She muttered in frustration, letting out a tired sigh as Rei hugged her from behind.
“Breath dear,” Rei whispered softly. “Momo is young and in love. She didn't think about the cameras or her daughters.”
Dulcea pretended to cough to hide her smile. “Seems like my dear grandson chose a spirited young woman.” She said playfully. “I can't wait to get to know all of them better in person.”
Miruko was on the ground laughing her ass off with Mt. Lady on the ground beside her. Both women were holding their stomachs from laughing so hard.
Ryukyu was doing her best to keep from laughing, but a snort or a snicker escaped every so often.
Mona was sitting in her chair, sipping on a cup of tea with a proud smile on her face. “That's my girl,” She said proudly. “A Yaoyaorozu takes what they want, and I hope she uses protection." Mona let a happy glint appear in her eyes. "Just like what I did to claim her father so long ago."
Inko’s head sank lower. “Oh god.” She whined in frustration.
“Grandma, why did Mama Momo lead Papa off like a dog?” Eri asked, tilting her head slightly in confusion.
Raphtalia nodded her head as well. “Yeah, Papa isn't a dog,” She said, crossing her arms. “What is Mama Momo thinking?”
"Mina's friends are weird," Mako mumbled.
Meiko and Mira nodded their heads in agreement.
Inko immediately glared at Miruko and Mt. Lady and pointed a finger at them both in a warning manner. “Not. One. Word.” She warned her adopted daughters before sending a glare at Nana. "Same goes for you, my dear daughter."
Nana raised her hands in a playful surrender. "Easy, Mom," She placated with a smirk. "It was bound to happen with hormones and adrenaline pumping today." Nana clicked her tongue. "Izuku is very lucky."
Mona decided to take pity on Inko and cleared her throat. “Momo is just playing a little game with your Papa.” She said, taking another sip of her tea. “How about we go get some snacks before the next match begins.”
"Ok!" Both girls said, hurrying over to their Grandma Mona.
Laura shot a look at Catherine. "One word about Pony and that collar, and I will throw you through the window." She warned her former sidekick.
Catherine mimed, zipping her lips, and turned to stare at Miruko, still laughing form, mostly on her long muscular legs and ass.
Rei pulled Inko away to a nearby couch to cuddle with her. "Come here, my dear," She said softly, holding Inko close. "Just relax until the next match."
“I am so proud of my nephew,” Mitsuki gushed. “I wonder if I can convince Momo to Umbawmi for a picture alongside Melissa.”
David groaned.
Toshinori patted his longtime friend on the back. “It will be ok, David,” He comforted. “Melissa has already done a magazine for Mitsuki. It was well done and tasteful.”
Melinda looked over at Mikoto and Sarah. “I need a drink. Do you two want to join me in celebrating Mei and the baby?" She whispered to keep the children from healing her.
“I’m in,” Mikoto said, grabbing a wine glass. “I just hope Mina won't ambush Izuku like that anytime soon." She filled her glass before handing the bottle to Melinda. "I mean, the grandbabies will be cute, but I want more time before they add to Eri and Raphtalia's adorableness.
Sarah sighed. “Don't remind me that Toru will need to be tested as well.” She grumbled as Melinda filled her glass.
Nezu was cackling in his office at the antics of her student and one of his paramours, and he made a mental note to change his bet on the number of offspring Izuku would have by graduation by at least two for now.
“Nezu, you have a phone call waiting for you.” DECA interrupted the principal's scheme to trick his staff into a sucker's bet.
Nezu took a sip of his tea to recharge before letting out a sigh to refocus his attention on other matters. “Who is it?” He asked, already having a good idea of who would be calling him during the Sports Festival.
"President Tanaka is demanding to speak with you about Endeavor's arrest," DECA explained with a hint of annoyance in her digital voice. “She is quite insistent on the matter and is currently en route to UA.”
Nezu sighed and rubbed his tired eyes. "Understood. Tell her to come to my office and have Hound Dog come here as well." He said, knowing this was going to get ugly.
Izuku was led into the room and turned around to see Momo lock the door. “Momo," He said, raising his hands. “W-We can talk about this.”
"I don't want to talk right now, Darling," Momo created a clock and set the time before sticking it to the door with special adhesive. "No, until that timer goes off. You are mine, and I want your lips on me." She unzipped her jacket and let it fall to the ground before pulling her shirt over her head."
"W-Wow," Izuku mumbled as he watched Momo's breasts bounce and were only kept in place by a strapless black bra. "Y-You look amazing, Momo." He wondered how that bra was able to handle her ample bosom.
Momo smiled brightly, reached up to the front of her bra, and unhooked it. "Thank you, my sweet, Darling," She let her bra fall away and stood topless before Izuku. "Now, I want your lips on my chest. Please make me feel good." She gave the chain a stern tug and pulled Izuku face-first into her breasts.
Izuku would have replied, but his face was smashed between her large breasts, and he had to grab her hips to keep from stumbling. He started to slowly pepper the heavenly valley with soft, slow kisses while his hands wandered over her bare back. With each moan or whimper, he moves down each breast before running his tongue over a nipple in a teasing manner.
“Darling!~” Momo moaned as his lips wrapped around one of her nipples, and he gave it a hard suck before doing the same to the other. "I need more!~" She whined when Izuku started nipping and kissing at the base of her neck, but hissed in delight as his calloused hands groped her breasts and fondled them with a slight roughness that made her legs shake.
"How is this Momo?" He asked, running his thumbs over her stiff nipples and leaving a large hickey on her neck. Izuku assumed he was doing really well when she pulled the chain leash tighter. She grabbed his face with both hands and pulled him into a fierce, heated kiss. Izuku reached up to slip a hand into her hair and pulled her hair tie out.
Momo let out a growl and pushed Iuku back until they fell backward onto a couch in the room. She quickly straddled his waist, renewed her assault on his lips, and nipped them more than once between her teeth. "Touch me, Izuku," She panted, grabbing one of his hands and pushing it down her pants til his fingers brushed her lower lips. “Please.”
Izuku cupped her sex and started rubbing it gently. His hand was completely soaked within seconds, and Momo started mewling like a cat in heat. Izuku continued to fondle her breast with his other hand and occasionally pinched her nipple. "I love you, Momo." He whispered as he slipped a finger inside her pussy. His thumb brushed against her clit and sent jolts through her body.
"YES!" Momo cried as she ground his hips against Izuku's hand and bit his neck hard enough to leave a mark. "Make me cum Izuku. I need to cum so bad, my pet." She started panting hard, her chest heaving with each breath. She slipped her hands under Izuku's shirt chest and dug her nails into his chest. Momo arched her back as a powerful jolt ran through her body as. Izuku slipped a second finger inside her and found one of her g-spots. "Right there, so close!"
Izuku curled his fingers and assaulted that spot with both fingers, kissing her way up each side of Momo’s neck. His hand was growing wetter by the second as her pussy was leaking like an open faucet. Izuku knew she was getting closer as his fingers felt like they were in a vice. “Cum.” He growled in her ear.”
“IZUKU!” Momo let out a scream as her orgasm exploded, soaking Izuku's lap with a gush of her fluids. She collapsed against his chest, the chain slipping through her limp finger, gasping for air as her body twitched and she had several small orgasms back to back. "That. Was. Amazing.” Momo mumbled, lifting her head up enough to capture his lips in a soft, tender kiss. She let out a low whine when Izuku's finger left her pussy. “My turn.” Momo reached down and started to pull at his shirt when her time went off. “No, not now.”
Izuku gave her a gentle smile and kissed her cheek. "We will have time later tonight, as I recall." He said playfully. "Sorry about what I did to your neck." Izuku ran his fingers over her neck as he counted the countless marks on her neck.
“I left just as many on you,” Momo teased, pulling her boyfriend into her breast one last time to place a kiss on his lips and remove the collar from his neck. "This goes back on tonight." She gave him a smoldering look that promised a night of passion and love.
Izukiu ran his fingers up her spine and smirked as she shuddered on his lap. “It’s a date.” He said, ensuring Momo felt his affection in his words. “We better hurry and get cleaned up.”
"Fine," Momo replied with a mocking sigh. "I'll make us some new clothes." After reluctantly getting off Izuku's lap, admiring the mess she made on Izuku's pants and couch. "Can you help find my bra?"
"On it," Izuku said, recalling the direction Momo had tossed her bra and went to retrieve it along with her shirt. When he turned around, He froze as Momo now stood naked, her soaked panties in one hand and a towel in the other, wiping herself clean. “I will say this as many times as you want, but you're a Goddess.”
Momo looked over her shoulder and gave him a bright family. “Flatterer,” She crooned, tossing the towel against the closest wall and tossed her panties to izuku. “A souvenir of our fun.” Momo created a simple pair of panties and started slipping them on. “Your new pants and boxers are on the couch.
Izuku smiled and went over to his change of clothes. “Thanks for both,” He said, pulling off his wet pants and boxers and started to get dressed.
Momo admired Izuku's member as he changed into a clean pair of boxers and licked her lips like a lioness looking at a piece of prime meat. She wanted the day to go fast so she could have her way with Izuku and see where the night took her.
Meanwhile….
Hosu
Stain flicked his sword to clean the blade of the fake blood. He smirked to get 4 fakes in one location as he stumbled upon them swapping thumb drives full of horrible images of countless crimes they were bragging about. Stain dropped down and killed them before any of them could react. "Filth," He snapped as he sheathed his blade and reached down to activate one of the dead heroes' emergency beacons so the bodies could be found. He also sent a message from a burner phone to several news outlets close by to cause more of a media storm.
He was about to make his way back to the rooftop when a loud engine started to grow closer. "Dammit,” Stain swore. He knew that Ingenium patrolled this city with Native, but this wasn't his usual day to do so. “Must have changed things up due to the Sports Festival.” He darted for the fire escape to disappear before the Hero arrived, but before he could get his foot on the first rung when, the sound of screeching tires made him turn around to see Ingenium standing next to the downed fakes.
“Halt Stain,” Ingenium said, giving the Hero Killer his full attention. "Surrender, and I will bring you in unharmed for all the Pro heroes you have murdered." His engines revved several times, and he leaned forward on his right leg.
Stain spat on the ground. "I have no qualms with you, Ingenium," He said, gesturing to the dead bodies on the ground. "I am just killing the fakes. The crimes they have committed are disgusting and need to be punished. They don't deserve the title of Hero that once actually meant something." Stain discreetly reached for a knife on his belt.
Ingenium shook his head. "The reason doesn't matter," He replied, narrowing his eyes and preparing for a quick attack to drop the killer and take him into custody. "You can't just kill people. We have laws, a legal process that would have had them stripped of their license and thrown in jail!"
“Don't patronize me,” Stain said with a disapproving scowl. “The Commission protects these kinds of “Heroes” by brushing their crimes under the rug to keep the public trust in them.” He tightened the grip on his knife and prepared to disable Ingenium and make his escape before more heroes arrived. “Last chance, boy. Leave.”
Ingenium sped forward. He caught a flick of movement from Stain and ducked under a thrown knife. The blade skipped off his armor, and Ingenium launched a hard punch at the Hero Killer's face.
Stain ducked under the attack. He has faced a few speedsters over the years and knows they fell into the thought process that their speed is the answer to everything, so he rushed forward. Stain struck his elbow into Ingenium’s throat, making the speedster stumble and double over. Then Stain grabbed his opponent by the shoulders and tossed him hard into the alley wall. “Stay down,” He snapped, turning around to leave when a kick to his back knocked him to the ground. Stain rolled back to his feet and saw Ingenium was back on his feet, coughing and rubbing his throat.
“Gonna have to try harder than that.” Ingenium rasped as he came at Stain again, this time focusing more on precision than speed with a flurry of punches and kicks.
Stain had to admit his opponent was good. Ingenium was putting up a better fight than most of the trash he had removed from the world. Stain wasn't worried, though. While Ingenium was good, he was better. Stain pulled two push knives and stabbed his opponent in the left hip and right shoulder to disable, but not cripple him. He was after fakes, after all, and Ingenium was no fake by a long shot with his charity work, mentor programs, and a lower media following than most.
“Gah!” Ingenium cried out and fell to a knee from the pain radiating from his hip. “I-I can still fight!”
"Stubborn fool," Stain grumbled, drawing his katana and knife. He went for a few more non-fatal wounds to get Ingenium off his trail. He feigned a low stab and was going to damage the engine in his right arm and stab his torso in a spot void of vital organs.
The plan went off the rails when Ingenium stumbled slightly from the injury to his hip and Ingenium’s body did not move the way Stain had planned on.
The knife pierced a seam in the armor around Ingenium’s right arm and hit the engine. A loud mechanical scream filled the air before the knife snapped off, and black smoke and flames erupted out of the exhaust pipes in the arm. Stain realized too late that his katana was off point, and it pierced the speedster in the stomach and pierced the stomach, and the blade erupted out the back through Ingenium’s spine.
Ingenium let out a silent scream before he dropped to his knees. His body went into shock as he couldn't feel anything from the chest down.
"Shit," Stain cussed and released his grip on his weapon, and laid Ingenium on his side as best he could before ransacking the speedster's belt for medical equipment to pack the injuries. "I'm sorry." He reached over, activated Ingenium's beacon, and ran off. "Dammit.”
Ingenium gasped for air as his vision started to go blurry, and he felt his body growing cold. "Mom…Dad….Tenya…….H-Hizashi," He said, gasping for air. "I'm sorry." His world slowly grew dark as he heard shouts coming from somewhere.
“Ingenium and several other heroes are down!” A man shouted. “We need medical assistance at our location now! Now, goddammit now!”
“He's barely alive!” A woman said in a panicked voice.
He heard the fading sounds of conversation and sirens as the world faded and grew black.
Ingenium wondered if this was what dying felt like as the darkness finally consumed him.
UA
Student Viewing Area
Momo stepped back into the student area, standing tall with an elegant and beautiful emerald shawl wrapped around her shoulders, covering her neck up to her ears. "I have returned," She said, ignoring the teasing smirks from the other girls. "Did I miss anything?" Momo took her seat like an elegant heiress.
"Why are you wearing the shawl?" Setsuna asked her friend with a large, toothy grin. Have you had some fun with our loveable boyfriend?
Mina cackled and leaned over to tug at the shawl. “Your hair is still a bit messy,” She teased and was mere inches away from the shawl when a small ruler appeared in Momo's hand and swatted Mina's hand away. “Ouch, not nice girl.”
Momo set the ruler on her lap. "We can discuss it later," She said, all prim and proper. "Izuku should be coming out any moment." She ignored the fact that her cheeks were warm, and she resisted the urge to fidget. Her body still felt his hands all over her.
The students smiled as Denki escorted Ibara to the ring, and the crowd cooed. They shared a brief kiss at the edge before Denki rushed off.
“There is Zuzu!” Mei chirped happily and zoomed in. “Wow, Momo. You left some big marks on his neck.”
"Hmm," Momo said, keeping her eyes on Izuku.
The other girls snickered as they announced the next Match.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, We are starting the semi-final match that will determine who will face Mina Ashido in the Finals!” Present Mic announced, amping the crowd up. “The Fierce Lioness with dangerous vines and unshakable conviction, Ibara Shiosaki!” He paused to let Ibara get the proper reception for her before introducing the other student. “Facing off against the Leader of the Power Rangers that has given us an incredible show, Izuku Midoryia!”
Izuku saw his sister's mischievous smile and just shook his head. "Not a word, Sis," He said, clearing his throat and ignoring Midnight snickering. "How do you want to play this Ibara? Morpher or no Morpher?”
"Oh, my dear, sweet little brother," Midnight cooed and wagged a finger playfully at him. “Seems like Momo is a biter from the marks on your neck.” She let out a short cackle before tapping her chin with a finger. "Oh, teaching her during our internship will be so much fun."
Izuku closed his eyes and let out a groan. "Maybe Mom can stop this." He said, opening his eyes and looking up to the sky. "Ibara, any chance God will intervene and save me?"
“I'm not sure God would intervene in matters like this,” Ibara said, with a slight twitch of her eye. “I shall pray for you, Izuku. It seems you will need it.”Her vines twitched and swatted as Ibara crossed her arms. “I'd like to see how you fair against my vines before you fall to my claws.”
"It was worth a shot," Izuku replied, shrugging and reaching into his pocket to change his Morpher to one that would help him against Ibara’s vine. “Ready when you are Midnight.”
Midnight cleared her throat and turned the microphone on. “Let the Semi Final Match begin!” She called out before leaping away to her safe spot as Ibara exploded into action.
Ibara let out a fierce roar as her vines pierced the ground, and they erupted in front of Izuku like a mass of rampaging vipers. "I shall not hold back!" She declared as the vice surrounded Izuku and swarmed over him into a tight dome.
“Papa!” Eri cried out and placed her hands on the glass.
Raptahilia hugged her tightly. "I'm sure Papa is ok," she said, nibbling on her bottom lip.
Miruko scooped up both of her nieces and held them close. “Your Dad is tough,” She said as both girls clung to her. “You’ll see.
Inko smiled at how gentle Miruko was with the girls and noticed Cathy staring awfully hard at them with a hint of something in her eyes. She kept quiet and went back to watching the Match.
“Please call the match Midnight,” Ibara said as her vine tightened around her opponent.
Midnight nodded her head. “Izuku, can you move at all?” She shouted loud enough for him to hear all through the vines. Midnight was about to call the match when Izuku did not respond. After a few seconds, a familiar head of green hair popped out like a ghost.
“I’m fine,” Izuku replied nonchalantly with a wave at Midnight and stepped out of the vines. “Good thing I changed Morphers before the match started, or I would have been in a lot of trouble." He watched as Ibara tried to capture him again with her vines, but they just passed through him. “Not gonna make it that easy!” he rushed forward through the vines and landed a kick to her stomach.
Ibara grunted from the kick and quickly recovered as she pulled her vines back to protect herself. Ibara attempted to throw a punch, only for it to phase right through him. "I see that you are going to make this difficult," She said, whipping her hair around like a whip and growling in frustration as her attacks continued to phase through Izuku.
Izuku was grateful for the ability, but it was very taxing on his stamina. He knew that if he wanted to be able to face Mina in the finals, he needed to change his tactics. Izuku lunged forward to grab Ibara by her shirt and tossed her out of the ring.
Ibara immediately sent several vines into the concrete as anchors to keep her from a ring-out. “You will have to try harder than that to win this match, Izuku," She said, narrowing her eyes.
“I know,” He replied with a genuine smile. “You are a fierce warrior and will be a great Heroine one day." Izuku pulled out his Morpher, and it shifted to a familiar form. "I expect nothing but the best from you, Ibara."
Ibara nodded her head with respect. “I expect the same from you as our leader.” Ibara pulled out her Morpher and flipped it open.
“Wild Access!”
“Sabertooth Tiger!”
Izuku flashed yellow, while Ibara flashed red as they took their Ranger forms. They shared a helmeted look before looking at the announcer's booth and yelled simultaneously. "Don't even think about it!"
“I wasn’t gonna!” Present Mic yelled defensively.
Midnight let out a light laugh. “Oh, he was gonna say it again.” She mused as Izuku and Ibara prepared to face off against one another.
Ibara resumed their bout with a series of quick punches and kicks. She grew a bit frustrated as Izuku blocked or redirected her attacks with minimal effort. Ibara flexed her fingers and unleashed her gold claws.
Izuku leaned out of the way of Ibara’s swipes. He dropped down to try and sweep her feet out from under her.
Ibara saw what he was trying to do and backflipped away before starting to circle Izuku. She noted he was mirroring her movements.
Izuku summoned his Power Daggers, a pair of 3-pointed daggers, and held them in a reverse grip as he surged forward. He blocked Ibara’s claws and managed to slip a kick to her stomach.
“Gah," Ibara grunted, doubling over slightly before pushing herself forward to bring her right hand into an upward swipe. She managed to land her attack, which sent sparks off Izuku's suit.
Izuku stumbled back and let out a low chuckle. “Guess I need to up my game a bit,” He said, giving his daggers a playful flourish before chagrin back in for a series of slashes coming in from multiple angles. Izuku was impressed to see Ibara blocking his attacks, but he managed to graze her leg or shoulder.
Ibara gritted her teeth as she felt the slight sting of Izuku’s dagger grazing her leg, but she refused to slow down. Her golden claws shimmered under the arena lights as she twisted her body, dodging the next slash by mere inches. She countered with a swift upward swipe, but Izuku leaned back, narrowly avoiding the strike.
Taking a deep breath, Ibara shifted her stance, lowering herself slightly as she prepared to lunge forward. She feinted to the left, watching Izuku adjust to intercept her before pivoting at the last second and spinning into a roundhouse kick aimed at his ribs.
Izuku barely had time to cross his daggers to block the kick, but the impact still sent him skidding backward, his boots scraping against the arena floor. "Not bad," he muttered, shaking out his arms. He charged forward again, his daggers moving in rapid succession. He alternated between slashes and quick jabs, testing Ibara’s defenses with relentless precision.
Ibara matched his pace, parrying each attack while trying to anticipate his next move. She felt her arms growing heavier with each block, but she refused to let him overwhelm her. Spotting an opening, she ducked under a diagonal slash and lunged low, swiping at his midsection with her claws.
Sparks flew as Izuku twisted his body at the last moment, the sharp edges of her claws scraping against his suit. He used the momentum of his turn to launch a spinning kick, catching Ibara in the side and forcing her to roll away to regain her footing.
Ibara let out a small growl, wiping sweat from her brow as she locked eyes with Izuku. They were evenly matched so far, but she could feel him slowly adapting to her attacks. If she didn’t change tactics soon, she’d be on the losing end.
Izuku smirked. "You’re keeping up well," he praised. "But I can see you thinking. You’re hesitating just a little too much."
Ibara scowled at his observation. She surged forward again, throwing a quick flurry of swipes and jabs. Izuku dodged and countered, but she let him push her back on purpose this time. As he went in for another strike, she suddenly leaped, twisting mid-air and raking her claws downward, aiming for his exposed shoulder.
Izuku barely managed to roll with the attack, but her claws caught his arm, sending another burst of sparks into the air. He hissed at the sharp sting before pivoting on his heel and ramming his shoulder into Ibara, knocking her off balance.
Not wanting to give him another chance to attack, Ibara planted her hands on the ground and flipped backward, resetting the distance between them.
Ibara’s eyes narrowed as she resumed her assault. She darted forward, launching a rapid series of strikes—left, right, diagonal, swiping with both speed and precision. Izuku deflected the first set with his daggers, twisting his wrists to redirect her momentum before sidestepping her follow-up claw swipe.
She was fast. That much was clear. But Izuku was used to speed. He’d fought opponents who could blur across a battlefield in an instant, and he’d trained against fighters with unpredictable, unorthodox styles. Ibara, however, was calculated. He could see it in how she adjusted her stance and observed his movements, predicting where he would be before striking.
Izuku pivoted as she lunged again, barely avoiding the sharp glint of her claws as they sliced through the air. He countered with a forward thrust of his dagger, but Ibara twisted her body mid-motion, angling herself just right to let his blade slip past her shoulder before bringing her knee up in a sharp jab toward his ribs.
He blocked—barely.
The impact sent a dull ache through his forearm as he raised it to absorb the hit. But Ibara wasn’t done. The second her knee connected, she spun, using the momentum to deliver a powerful roundhouse kick.
Izuku ducked.
Her leg sailed over his head, but he was already on the move. He surged forward, switching his stance, his daggers flashing as he executed a sweeping slash toward her midsection. Ibara twisted just in time, the tip of his blade grazing her suit and sending a shower of sparks into the air.
She hissed through her teeth, her feet barely touching the ground before she kicked off again, flipping backward to create space.
She dashed forward, closing the gap between them in an instant. This time, her strikes came even faster, her claws whistling through the air as she aimed at Izuku's shoulders, arms, and sides. Izuku deflected one, then another, his daggers ringing as they clashed against her claws.
Then, she changed tactics.
Instead of continuing her relentless assault, she stopped abruptly, dropping low to sweep his legs.
Izuku jumped.
He flipped mid-air, landing gracefully, but Ibara was already in motion again. She feinted a swipe at his head, forcing him to dodge, then twisted sharply and slammed her palm against his chest.
The force sent him skidding backward.
Izuku steadied himself, inhaling deeply before his daggers pulsed with energy. He tightened his grip, rolling his shoulders as he exhaled slowly. “Alright, then.” He watched Ibara tense while waiting for him to respond. "You're good," Izuku admitted, flexing his fingers around his daggers. "But let’s see how you handle this."
He dashed forward, slashing low before twisting and launching an upward cut. Ibara barely dodged, leaning back just enough for the dagger to pass inches from her face. She countered with a quick slash of her claws, but Izuku parried it, redirecting her arm to the side before sweeping his leg toward hers.
She jumped back, expecting the maneuver, but Izuku anticipated her evasion. He followed up immediately, throwing one of his daggers—not to hit, but to force her to react.
It worked.
Ibara twisted mid-air, deflecting the thrown dagger with her claws. But as soon as she landed, Izuku was already there.
He spun low, slashing toward her legs.
A hit.
His dagger grazed her thigh, sending another burst of sparks flying. She gritted her teeth, rolling to absorb the impact before launching into another series of acrobatic flips to distance some between them.
Izuku retrieved his fallen dagger with a quick flick of his wrist. “You’re slowing down.”
Ibara exhaled sharply. She could feel the sting in her leg, the slight sluggishness creeping into her movements. But she wasn’t done yet.
She shifted her stance, rolling her shoulders as a grin crept onto her lips. “You talk too much.”
Izuku smirked. “Maybe.”
Then they charged at each other.
The fight became a blur of motion—claws meeting daggers sparks flying with each clash. Ibara ducked under a sweeping slash, retaliating with a quick jab toward his side. Izuku twisted, barely avoiding the claws before landing a sharp kick to her shoulder.
She staggered but recovered instantly, slashing upward in a desperate attempt to regain control.
Her claws met resistance—a dagger.
Izuku had caught her strike, locking her arm in place.
For a brief moment, they stood frozen, eyes locked, breaths coming fast and heavy.
Then Izuku shifted, using his grip to twist her arm just enough to throw her off balance. He swept his leg out again—this time, she couldn’t avoid it.
In a blur of motion, Izuku lunged forward again, feinting high before crouching low and sweeping his leg toward Ibara’s ankle. This time, Ibara wasn’t fast enough to avoid it, and her feet were knocked out from under her. She barely had time to react before Izuku was on her, pinning one of her wrists to the ground while raising a dagger toward her throat.
The two stared at each other momentarily, chest rising and falling from exertion. Ibara’s claws twitched as she debated trying to break his hold, but she knew she had lost this round.
Izuku let out a breath before grinning. "Looks like I win this one."
Ibara huffed, but a smirk tugged at her lips under her helmet. "Tch, don’t get cocky. Next round, I’ll make sure you’re the one on the ground." She turned to look at Midnight. “I give up.”
Izuku chuckled and released her wrist, offering a hand to help her up. "I’ll hold you to that."
“Winner is Izuku Midoryia!” Midnight announced to the crowd as the stands went nuts. A deafening eruption of applause and whistles followed, the spectators on their feet as the announcement echoed across the stadium. “That means that Mina Ashido will face off against Izuku in the Final round!” The roar of the crowd filled the arena as the dust settled, the energy in the air electric with excitement.
“WOOO!” Mina cheered and started to do a celebratory dance. "Later, girls!" She pulled out her Mystic Morpher and flipped it open to key in a code. A moment later, a broom appeared in her hand, and she threw her leg over it. “Race ya, Denki!"
Denki scrambled for his own Mystic Morpher to summon his own broom. “Hey!” He called out in annoyance. “No fair!”
Izuku flashed yellow as he returned to normal and helped Ibara back to her feet. “That was a great match, Ibara,” He said with a wide smile. “You will make a great leader for your team.”
Ibara also powered down and thanked Izuku for helping her back to her feet. “Thank you,” She replied with a tired smile. “I still have much to learn, but I do hope to spar with you again. Like Itsuka, I would like another chance to face you and claim a win for myself.”
“Like I told Itsuka, just tell me a time and a place,” Izuku replied with a half smile. “Seems we're about to have company.” He gestured to the racing forms of Mina and Denki coming towards them. When Izuku saw a familiar glint in her golden eyes, he knew what she had planned. “Oh, no.”
Mina pushed off her broom and launched herself at Izuku mid-flight with her arms wide and a huge smile.
Izuku scrambled to make sure he could catch his flying girlfriend. He adjusted his stance to catch Mina and used her momentum to spin them around. Izuku would have fallen to the ground as his foot slipped from Mina, slamming into him, but Ibara’s vines. "Nice of you to drop in, Mina," He deadpanned.
“Hehehe,” Mina giggled, stealing a quick kiss. “I knew that you would catch me.” She glanced over at Ibara. “Thanks for the save!”
"It was my pleasure," Ibara replied before sending Denki a warning look. "You try that, and I will withhold kisses as punishment."
“I’ll be good,” Denki said quickly, landing near Ibara with a blush on his face.
Midnight cleared her throat, and all four of them turned to look. She grinned like a loon. "There will be a 30-minute break before the final match. Mina, why don't you take a page out of Momo's book and wait with Izuku until your match starts.” She said playfully.
Mina’s eyes sparkled with delight. “Come on Izuku!’ She squealed excitedly and latched onto Izuku’s arm. “Will you cuddle with me?”
“If that is what you want,” Izuku said, placing a peck on her lips. “Let’s go before we lose any more time.” He scooped her up into a princess and laughed when Mina let out a loud squeak.
Mina gave him an adorable pout. “No fair!” She whined, laying her head on his shoulder as her cheeks turned a dark purple.
Denki and Ibara made their own way back to the stands with their arms linked and the crowd cooing.
Midnight checked her phone and saw a message from Pixie-Bob with a room number. She quickly set an alarm and slipped away for some time with her kitty.
“Ladies and Gentleman, we will be taking a short intermission before our climatic final match! Please grab some snacks and use the restroom while you can because I think this will be a match to remember!” Present said excitedly before flipping off the microphone. “I’m gonna get a drink. Do you need anything?"
Vlad King waved his hand. “Nah, I’m good,” He replied, stretching his back and getting comfortable in his chair.
Present Mic nodded and headed out of the announcer's booth. "Ok, back in a few," He said with a lazy salute and closed the door behind him. Present Mic had made it a few steps when he spotted Snipe leaning against a nearby wall. "What's up, cowboy?" I thought you were on patrol?"
Snipe hesitated for a moment, letting out a short sign. “Hizashi, I am here to take over for you,” He said, holding up his hand to keep Present Mic from cutting him off. “It’s Tensei.”
“What?” Present Mic asked, feeling weak in the knees. “W-What about Tensei?”
Snipe placed a gentle hand on the blonde's shoulders. “He was attacked by the Hero Killer. He is in bad shape.” He said quietly. “Nezu set up a ride for you at the main gate. Ectoplasm has two clones to escort you.” Snipe gestured to said clone waiting near the stairwell.
Present Mic almost fell to his knees from the shock but managed a jerky nod and ambled toward his fellow teacher. He barely reacted when Ectoplasm gently took his arm to assist him down the stairs.
Snipe pulled his hat down and headed to the booth to talk with Vlad King before the break was over.
Tenya finished the last sip of his sports drink, methodically twisting the cap back onto the empty plastic bottle before placing it in the correct recycling bin. He had always believed in following the rules, no matter how small the action. His fingers swiftly unlocked his phone as he typed out a quick message to Saiko about their upcoming study session, double-checking his grammar before sending it off.
Just as he was about to return to his classmates, his phone buzzed in his hand. The unexpected call made his brows furrow. Mother? She usually sent messages, preferring not to call unless it was something important.
“Hm, that is odd,” he murmured before answering. Pressing the phone to his ear, he greeted her as he always did, voice polite and precise. “Hello, Mother. I was not expecting your call.” He adjusted his glasses with his free hand, straightening his posture instinctively. “I apologize for my poor performance today, but I will strive to do better with my training and—”
“Tenya.” His mother's voice came through the receiver, strained and hoarse as if she had been crying.
The way she said his name sent an icy prickle down his spine.
“I-It’s your brother.”
The world around him seemed to tilt.
Tenya’s grip on his phone loosened, and for a terrifying second, he nearly dropped it. His throat constricted as panic surged through him like an electric current.
“W-What?” The single word barely left his lips, his voice small and fragile—so unlike the disciplined, steadfast persona he always carried.
The background noise of the campus faded to a distant hum. Tenya didn't remember his feet moving, but suddenly, a warm, steadying hand was on his back, guiding him. A member of the UA staff—he wasn't sure who—walked him toward the main gate. His thoughts were a whirlwind, his heart pounding so loudly it drowned out the rush of conversation around him.
What happened? Was Tensei hurt again? No, his mother wouldn't sound like that if it were something minor. His mind raced through possibilities, each one worse than the last.
Before he knew it, he was being ushered into a car.
“C’mon, kid. Breathe.”
The voice was unmistakable—Present Mic. The normally boisterous hero was uncharacteristically subdued, his tone gentle but firm. He sat beside Tenya in the car, hands resting on his thighs, his usual energy dimmed by the weight of the situation.
Tenya clutched his phone tightly, staring at it as if waiting for another call, more information, something. His breaths were coming too fast, too shallow. He needed to calm down, to focus—but how could he when his mind kept screaming Tensei, Tensei, Tensei—
Present Mic reached into his pocket, pulling out a bottle of water and pressing it into Tenya’s hand. “Drink.”
Tenya barely registered the action but obeyed, fumbling with the cap and taking a shaky sip.
The car ride felt both too long and too short. The hospital loomed ahead, sterile and cold, and for the first time in a long while, Tenya realized—
He wasn’t ready for whatever was waiting for him inside.
Mitsuki snickered at Izuku, carrying Mina off the arena, and checked her watch. "I'll be back in a bit," she said, placing a peck on Toshinori’s cheek. “Save me a seat.” She added with a sultry smile.
Toshinori reached up, gently catching her hand before she could slip away. His thumb brushed over her knuckles, a small gesture of intimacy. “Are you going back to see your son?” he asked, his blue eyes searching hers with concern. “I’ll come with you.”
Mitsuki hesitated, then placed a firm but warm hand against his broad chest, holding him back. “No,” she said softly, her gaze steady. “I need to try and reach him on my own.” A flicker of emotion passed through her sharp, red eyes. “He’s my son, and I want to repair our bond.”
Toshinori nodded, understanding the weight of her words. This wasn’t something he could help with—not yet. “Alright,” he murmured, giving her hand one final squeeze.
Mitsuki took a deep breath, exhaling slowly before stepping back. With a confident tilt of her chin, she turned on her heel and strode toward the exit, hips swaying with natural allure.
Toshinori watched, a fond smile playing on his lips. That woman was unstoppable.
A deliberate cough made him turn, and he found Nana Shimura grinning at him, her arms crossed.
“You sure know how to pick ’em, Toshi," she winked. "You better hold her tight, or someone might steal her away." She waggled her eyebrows suggestively.
Toshinori groaned, already knowing from experience that Nana was just getting started.
Meanwhile, Inko Midoriya sat comfortably in the family seating area, with Eri in her lap while Raphtalia talked excitedly. A soft smile lit her face as Rei sat beside her, enjoying every minute of the chaos as she gave the girls some snacks.
“Mama,” Mako said, getting her mother's attention. “Why did Izuku carry Mina off like that?”
Mikoto gave her child a strained smile. “I’ll tell you when you're older.” She mumbled as her friend Sarah snickered alongside Miruko and Mt. Lady
Izuku opened the door to the same lounge room as before and immediately noted that it had been cleaned—probably by one of the school’s staff. He made a mental note to ask about that later, but for now, his focus was entirely on Mina. With ease, he carried her over to the couch, settling down before placing her sideways on his lap. His arms encircled her securely, his touch gentle despite the strength in his hold.
“Hope this is to your liking, my Alien Queen,” he teased, pressing a soft kiss to the top of her head, inhaling the fresh citrus scent of her shampoo.
“Yup,” Mina chirped happily, a playful grin tugging at her lips. She nuzzled into the crook of Izuku’s neck before pressing a light, lingering kiss to the side of his throat. “Perfect.” Her voice was barely above a mumble, her arms tightening around his neck as she let out a content sigh.
Izuku chuckled, warmth filling his chest as Mina started adding more little kisses and marks to his neck. He wasn’t exactly complaining—not when her affections made his heart race in the best way—but when she finally pulled back, he noticed the way her expression had shifted. The usual bright sparkle in her eyes had dimmed just a little, her brows pinched together in thought.
“Mina?” Izuku tilted his head slightly, his voice laced with concern. “Something wrong?”
Mina let out a sheepish laugh, rubbing the back of her neck. “Ehh, it’s just… kinda embarrassing, I guess.” She avoided his gaze, her fingers absentmindedly playing with the fabric of his sleeve. “I made it to the finals, but, like… I didn’t really earn it, y’know?” She sighed, kicking her feet a little. “I beat Kiri, then one of my opponents got disqualified, another match ended in a double KO, and the last one would have been Mei before her medical forfeit by Recovery Girl. I didn’t actually win my way here like you, Momo, Pony, or Ibara.”
Izuku blinked at her before shaking his head with a small, fond smile. “Mina… that’s not true at all.” He lifted a hand to gently tilt her chin up so their eyes met. “You earned your spot just as much as anyone else.”
Mina let out a soft scoff. “Come on, Izuku, you know it’s not the same—”
"No," he said firmly but not unkindly. "You do deserve to be in the finals. You trained hard. You stepped into the ring every time and faced whatever came at you. Winning isn't just about flashy victories—it's about resilience, endurance, and pushing forward no matter what happens." His grip on her hand tightened slightly. "You didn't quit. You didn't back down. That's what matters.”
Mina stared at him, her lips parting slightly as she searched his face. Then, slowly, a shy smile crept onto her lips, her cheeks tinged a soft purple.
“…You’re kinda the best, you know that?" she murmured, squeezing his hand.
Izuku chuckled, his own face heating up. “I just tell the truth.”
Mina huffed playfully before nuzzling back into his neck, her embarrassment fading into quiet appreciation. “Guess I’ll just have to win the whole thing, huh?”
Izuku chuckled, resting his chin lightly against the top of Mina’s head as she nestled into him. “You know,” he began, a teasing lilt in his voice, “if you really want to win the whole thing, that means you’re gonna have to beat me in the finals.”
Mina stiffened slightly before pulling back just enough to look at him, her pink cheeks deepening to a more vibrant shade. “Oh. Uh. Right.” She let out an awkward laugh, rubbing the back of her neck.
Izuku grinned, his emerald eyes twinkling with amusement. “Aww, what’s wrong, Mina? Having second thoughts?” He leaned in a little closer, voice dropping into a playful whisper. “Afraid I’m gonna wipe the floor with you?”
Mina’s eyes snapped up to meet his, and the uncertainty on her face was quickly replaced by an impish smirk. “Pfft! Please.” She flicked his forehead lightly. “You might be the top student, but don’t think I won’t drop-kick you straight out of the ring.”
Izuku let out a loud, joyful laugh before pulling Mina closer, pressing a soft but lingering kiss to her lips. His heart swelled at the fire in her golden eyes as he gazed at her, his expression both affectionate and determined.
“Then you better give me everything you’ve got, Mina,” he murmured, his fingers tracing gentle circles against her waist. His voice was firm yet warm, carrying a promise. “I expect a fearsome challenge from my beautiful girlfriend.”
Mina’s smirk widened, her confidence blazing just as brightly as the fondness in her gaze. “Deal,” she purred before tugging him down, capturing his lips in a searing kiss.
Izuku melted into it, his hands tightening around her as their playful rivalry blended seamlessly with their deep affection for each other. She tasted of citrus and something undeniably Mina—bright, energetic, and utterly intoxicating.
When they finally broke apart, Mina leaned her forehead against his, breathless but grinning. “But don’t think I’ll go easy on you just because I like kissing your sexy face.”
Izuku chuckled, his own breath slightly uneven. “I wouldn’t dream of it.” He brushed his nose against hers before whispering, “Just don’t get mad when I win.”
Mina gasped dramatically, shoving him back with an exaggerated scowl. “Oh, you’re in for it now, Izuku.”
Izuku only laughed again, his grip firm yet gentle as he pulled her back into his arms. “Can’t wait.”
The stadium buzzed with excitement as the crowd eagerly awaited the final match of the UA Sports Festival. The energy in the air was electric, students and spectators alike leaning forward in anticipation. The massive screens above the arena flickered to life, and the booming voice of Snipe echoed through the speakers. “Alright, folks! This is it! The moment you’ve all been waitin’ for! The final match of the Sports Festival!”
His deep, Southern-accented voice carried easily over the roar of the crowd. Beside him, Vlad King stood with his arms crossed, his usual stern expression softened by the excitement in his tone.
“This year’s finals have been anything but predictable,” Vlad King added. “We’ve seen incredible displays of strength, strategy, and perseverance from all our competitors.” He shot a glance at the arena below before continuing. “But now, it all comes down to these two.”
Snipe cleared his throat. “We've got the unstoppable strategist, the powerhouse with a never-say-die attitude—Izuku Midoriya!”
The crowd erupted into cheers, a mix of admiration and respect filling the stadium. Izuku remained composed, nodding once, his focus locked on the upcoming battle.
Vlad King continued, his voice filled with just as much energy, “She’s fast, she’s unpredictable, and she’s proven herself every step of the way—Mina Ashido!”
Another wave of cheers, louder this time, rippled through the stadium. Mina gave a playful twirl before bouncing on the balls of her feet, grinning from ear to ear.
“This is gonna be one hell of a fight,” Snipe remarked.
Vlad King nodded in agreement. “They’ve trained together, they know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, and now they’re putting it all on the line.” His eyes gleamed with pride. “Who will come out on top? The relentless strategist or the unpredictable powerhouse?”
Izuku led Mina out of the hallway toward the brightly lit arena, their footsteps echoing slightly against the concrete floor before being drowned out by the deafening roar of the stadium. The entire crowd was on their feet, cheering, chanting, and waiting in anticipation for the final match to begin.
Mina walked beside him, rolling her shoulders, practically vibrating with excitement. “Damn, listen to them!” she grinned, bouncing slightly on the balls of her feet. “They love us.”
Izuku chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck. “Well, it is the final match. They’ve been waiting for this all day.”
As they stepped into the open, the blinding stadium lights shone down on them, illuminating the battlefield where they would determine the victor. Izuku instinctively glanced up at the announcers' booth—expecting to see Present Mic, but instead, his brows furrowed in confusion.
Snipe?
The cowboy-themed hero stood at the microphone, arms crossed, looking far more composed than his usual co-host. Present Mic was nowhere in sight.
Izuku glanced at Midnight, who was waiting for them at the center of the ring, clipboard in hand. She noticed his look and gave him a shrug, clearly just as baffled as he was. Something had happened, but whatever it was, they were going forward with the match.
Mina nudged his side. “What’s up?”
“Nothing,” Izuku said, shaking off his curiosity. “Just surprised to see Snipe instead of Present Mic.”
“Oh.” Mina blinked before smirking. “Maybe Mic blew out his vocal cords, hyping up the last match."
Izuku snorted. “Honestly? Wouldn’t surprise me.”
Midnight gave them both an approving nod as they reached the center of the ring. "Glad to see you two ready to go. This has been an amazing tournament so far,” she said, her usual sultry tone carrying an edge of genuine excitement. “I hope you’re ready to give us a finale to remember.”
Izuku straightened, determination burning in his emerald eyes. “Yes, ma’am.” Izuku exhaled, settling into his stance, his focus narrowing.
Mina grinned, cracking her knuckles. “Oh, you know we will.” Mina rolled her neck, dropping into her swaying, capoeira-ready posture.
Midnight smirked at them. “You two know the rules,” She said, waiting to get a nod from both of them. “Good, now get ready.” She turned on the microphone. “Let the Final Match Begin!” Midnight snapped her whip and took a step back.
Mina shot forward, her body fluid and unpredictable, her feet barely touching the ground as she moved in a rhythmic, swaying motion. The moment the match began, she dropped low, swaying from side to side, her movements smooth and effortless.
Izuku narrowed his eyes, instantly recognizing her fighting style—Capoeira. A dance-like martial art that relied on deceptive movements, agility, and flexibility. Mina was going to be hard to read.
Mina’s golden eyes twinkled as she suddenly twisted mid-motion, flipping into a handstand before launching a spinning kick straight at Izuku’s head.
Izuku barely ducked in time, feeling the air shift above him as her foot nearly grazed his hair. He reacted instantly, shifting his stance, keeping his guard up, and moving in with a controlled counter.
Izuku went on the offensive, stepping in with a textbook jab-cross-hook combo, aiming for her centerline to break through her defenses. But Mina was already moving, her body twisting and flowing around his strikes like water. She flipped backward, her legs bending mid-air before she kicked off the ground and launched herself at him again.
Izuku grinned. ‘Good.’ He switched tactics, shifting into an MMA stance—strong base, tight guard, calculated movements. When Mina came in for another spinning kick, he caught her ankle mid-air, twisting his body as he swept her standing leg out from under her.
Mina gasped as the ground met her back—but before Izuku could capitalize, she used her momentum to roll and spring to her feet, bouncing lightly on the balls of her feet.
“Damn, Izuku,” She huffed, smirking as she wiped sweat off her brow. “Didn’t think you’d catch that one.”
Izuku chuckled, shaking out his arms. “You’re fast, Mina. But I’ve been training for fights like this.”
Mina’s grin widened. “Oh yeah?” She suddenly lunged forward, closing the distance. “Then let’s see if you can keep up!” Mina let her weakest acid drip off her body as her feet glided across the ring.
She feinted left before spinning into a low meia-lua de compasso—a sweeping kick designed to strike from an unexpected angle. Izuku had seen this move before, but Mina had enhanced it, pushing off with her acid-covered hands to increase her rotational speed.
Izuku had no time to dodge. He blocked, bracing as the impact sent a shockwave through his arms. The force pushed him back a few steps, and Mina wasted no time following up. She transitioned into armada dupla, a rapid aerial double-kick.
Izuku had a split second to act.
He dropped low, slipping under the attack before shifting his weight and lunging forward. He grabbed Mina mid-air, redirecting her momentum into a controlled takedown. Mina hit the floor but twisted her body to avoid a full pin, her legs locking around Izuku’s waist in a defensive guard.
The crowd exploded with cheers as the two fighters clashed, neither backing down.
Izuku panted, beads of sweat rolling down his temple as he stared into Mina’s golden eyes.
She was grinning, her breaths heavy but her spirit unshaken. “You’re really making me work for this, huh?”
Izuku smirked. “Wouldn’t be a real fight if I didn’t.”
Mina chuckled before suddenly shifting her grip, attempting to roll him into an armbar.
Izuku barely managed to slip out, countering with a half-guard sweep to regain control.
Neither of them were going to hold anything back.
Izuku looked down to see his jacket was covered in small burn marks. "Good thing this isn't my favorite jacket or anything." He said, taking it off and tossing it away. “Try not to destroy my shirt.”
Mina held a hand out in front of her and let a few acid drips fall to the ground, and they hissed as they hit the ground. "No Promises." She said before she started dancing again.
‘It’s time.’ The Master said with a sadistic glee in Katsuki’s mind. 'Show them how powerful you are, young wolf.'
Katsuki smiled as he opened his eyes. They turned from a bright red like his mother's to a dark purple. "Yes, Master," He growled, getting to his feet, rolling his shoulders, and cracking his knuckles. Katsuki felt power surging through his body and snapped the cuffs with ease. “Time to pay, Deku.” He raised his hand and prepared to blow the cell door open.
"Hey, What are you doing!” The officer yelled, jumping to his feet.
Mitsuki took a deep breath and opened the door to the holding area her son's cell was in. She hoped that he had calmed down and would be willing to talk to her.
"Hey, What are you doing!” The officer yelled, jumping to his feet.
BOOM!
A violent explosion tore through the space, a shockwave slamming into her chest like a truck. The world tilted, and her body launched backward like a rag doll, slamming against the cold, unforgiving wall behind her.
Pain exploded through her skull as the impact knocked the breath from her lungs.
Her vision blurred, and spots of light danced across her eyes. Her ears rang, drowning out all other noise except the distorted hum of chaos.
Through the haze of smoke and flickering emergency lights, she saw him—
Katsuki.
But… he wasn’t the son she remembered.
He walked past her, his movements unnaturally controlled, his shoulders loose, almost too relaxed. There was no fire in his usual aggressive posture, no brash confidence—just something colder. More calculated....almost evil…
Then she saw his eyes.
Not the brilliant red she had passed down to him.
Dark purple.
A shade so unnatural and wrong that it sent a chill up her spine. Katsuki's gaze flicked toward her, the briefest glance like she was nothing more than an obstacle in his way. No hesitation. No recognition. No warmth. And then he was gone, stepping through the ruined door, leaving her behind like an afterthought.
Mitsuki’s fingers twitched as she struggled to move, her body sluggish, her mind screaming. ‘Katsuki… What happened to you?’ Darkness swallowed her vision before she could hear the answer.
The air in the holding area thickened with smoke and the acrid stench of burning metal. The force of the explosion still rang in Katsuki’s ears, but he barely paid any mind to it. He stepped over the scattered debris, his movements slow, deliberate—like a predator stalking its prey. His lips curled in a smirk as his dark purple eyes gleamed with eerie amusement.
His focus was singular.
Deku .
The Master’s voice purred in his mind, coiling around his thoughts like a serpent. ‘Yes, yes. Show them, my young wolf. Show them all why they should respect you.’
Katsuki smirked, flexing his fingers as the raw energy in his veins surged through him like liquid fire. The restraints they had put on him had only been a temporary delay—a foolish attempt at control.
Now?
Now, there was nothing stopping him.
He stepped forward, his boots crunching against the shattered remnants of the cell door. His mother’s unconscious form lay sprawled on the ground, her breathing shallow, strands of blonde hair falling over her face.
Something flickered in the back of his mind for a fleeting second—something familiar, something warm.
A memory.
A small hand ruffling his spiky hair. Laughter. A voice, playful but strong. “My little firecracker.”
His fingers twitched.
Then, just as quickly, the Master’s voice shredded through the moment.
‘Weakness, Katsuki. Look at her—helpless, pathetic. She would only hold you back. They ALL would.’
His jaw clenched. His gaze hardened.
Without another glance at his mother, he stepped past her and kept moving.
The hallway stretched ahead, dimly lit by flickering security lights. The alarms were blaring now, but Katsuki didn't care.
Let them come. Let them try.
All that mattered was the target.
Deku.
His hands curled into fists, sparks of violet energy dancing between his fingertips.
Katsuki’s grin grew sharp and dangerous. “Time to pay up, you shitty Deku.”
Lady Nagant was already moving before she fully registered the explosion. Years of experience kicked in, her body reacting faster than conscious thought. The sharp crack of destruction had rung out from down her patrol route, sending a ripple of unease through her.
Her boots barely touched the ground as she sprinted toward the holding area.
The moment she arrived, her sharp, well-trained eyes took in the chaos in seconds.
The reinforced security door? Blown apart. Shards of metal were embedded into the walls.
Smoke still curled from the scorched edges of the entryway.
Mitsuki Bakugo? Down.
Lady Nagant’s breath hitched for a moment before she quickly dropped to a knee, pressing two fingers against Mitsuki’s neck. A steady, if faint, pulse met her touch.
Alive.
Nearby, the officer in charge of watching Katsuki Bakugo was also slumped against the opposite wall, his radio shattered beside him.
Also alive.
But the real problem?
The cell was empty.
Nagant’s jaw tightened as she immediately pressed a hand to her comm. "Attention all units. Katsuki Bakugo has broken free from his cell and is on the loose.”
The silence that followed lasted only half a second before the comms erupted with frantic voices.
“Bakugo escaped?!”
“How the hell did he break the cuffs?!”
"Where was his guard detail?"
“What’s his last known heading?”
Lady Nagant exhaled sharply, pushing aside her own questions for later. Right now, there was no time to waste.
“I need medical at the holding cell immediately.” Her voice was clipped, calm but commanding. “The officer on duty and Mitsuki Bakugo are unconscious but stable. I repeat—they are alive.”
Another beat passed before she barked out her next order.
“Lock down the area. Secure all exits and establish a perimeter. Bakugo is not to be engaged alone—he is extremely dangerous.”
She stood, her sharp gaze flicking toward the blown-out door. She could see the scorch marks, the power in that explosion—it wasn’t normal.
This wasn’t just a jailbreak.
This was something else.
Her hands clenched into fists as she turned in the direction of his escape.
Where the hell are you going, Bakugo?
Lady Nagant tapped her comm to change to her private channel. “Inko, we have a problem.”
Private Viewing Area
Inko gasped at what Kaina had told her and turned to look at Toshinori. “Go to the holding area,” She said quickly. “Katsuki is gone. Mitsuki needs you.”
Toshinori’s expression turned grim in an instant. Without hesitation, he rushed out the door, his body already expanding as he forced himself into his muscular form. The building trembled slightly as he pushed off the ground, heading toward Mitsuki at full speed.
"Alpha, DECA, Full Alert, find Katsuki." Inko said, looking at her daughters. "Get to the ring. There is a good chance that Katsuki will be coming for Izuku."
Mt. Lady, standing nearby, took a protective step toward Inko, her usually carefree demeanor replaced by genuine concern, more than a little worried about Izuku. “I’ll stay here with Inko, just in case.” Her voice was firm, her gaze flicking toward the arena. “Go.”
Miruko cracked her knuckles, her red eyes glinting dangerously. “Damn right, I’m not letting that brat touch my kid brother.” Miruko nodded before turning to look at Cathy. “Keep an eye on them for me.” She said, heading for the door.
Cathy—muscles tensing like a coiled spring—flashed a sharp grin. “Count on it,” she assured, flexing one arm for emphasis. “Hurry.”
Ryukyu, already moving, flung open the door. "Let's go, Miruko," She said, hurrying out the door with her friend on her heels.
Miruko gave one last look at Inko before dashing out, her powerful legs propelling her forward as she and Ryukyu tore through the hallway like hunting wolves.
“Grandma!’ Eri cried, getting everyone’s attention. “Look!”
Eri’s panicked cry cut through the air like a blade.
Everyone snapped toward her.
Inko followed Eri’s trembling finger, her eyes widening in horror as she saw it—
A figure. Flying.
Straight toward Izuku.
Her stomach dropped.
“No.” Inko breathed.
The stadium roared as Izuku and Mina continued their intense battle, neither giving an inch. Sweat dripped down their faces, their bodies aching from the relentless exchange of attacks, but neither was backing down.
Izuku dodged another one of Mina’s high kicks, narrowly avoiding the acidic residue left in its wake. He knew better than to let even a single drop touch him. He was sure that it would sting since Mina wasn't using her weakest acid against him, but he couldn't take a chance.
Mina grinned, her stance fluid as she transitioned into another attack. "Getting tired yet, Izuku?" she teased, twisting mid-air into a spinning kick. "You can just surrender, and I'll make it something worthwhile!"
"Tempting, but no," Izuku smirked, ducking under her kick, planting his feet. “Not even close, Mina.” He said, shifting his Morpher in his pocket. When Mina tried to land another kick, he pivoted, grabbing her ankle mid-kick. With a controlled motion, he spun and sent her flying back toward the other end of the arena.
Mina flipped mid-air, twisting her body and landing in a crouch. She panted but immediately bounced back to her feet, her golden eyes glowing with excitement. “Is that all you got?”
“Let’s see how you handle this,” Izuku said with a smile as three clones stepped out of his body. “If memory serves, you did say whoever becomes my girlfriend or wife will be one lucky lady with that gadget of yours in the bedroom."
Mina’s face turned a dark purple. “T-That was before I was your girlfriend! That doesn't count!” She cried as her face grew a darker purple as she thought of several different positions she wanted to try.
"Are you imagining certain things now, Mina?" One clone asked with a teasing smile. "Naughty things?"
Another crossed his arms. "I mean, we know how flexible you are."
The real Izuku took a step closer to Mina. “Let's see how you handle this!” He shouted while running at Mina. The three clones rushed forward in sync, their movements perfectly coordinated.
The first one dashed in, throwing a feint punch—a distraction.
Mina ducked, twisting to counter—
Only for the second clone to appear on her left, throwing a powerful kick.
She barely managed to block, but the impact forced her back.
Then, the third clone leaped from behind, going for a sweeping leg strike.
Mina gritted her teeth. ‘He’s forcing me on the defensive!’ She thought as she bent and flexed her body out of the way. Izuku had her backed into a corner for the first time in the fight. And Mina refused to stay there.
She grinned. "Oh, so we’re playing dirty, huh?" With a sudden burst of acid from her hands and feet, she spun low, dissolving part of the ground to disrupt their footing. Mina was forced to bend almost into a U-shape to avoid a punch.
Izuku and his clones stumbled for a fraction of a second—just long enough for Mina to leap up and flip over them.
She landed on her feet, breath heavy, wiping sweat from her forehead. “Not how I thought I would be ganged up on by you and clones.” She teased with a wide smile. “I figured it would be in a private setting.”
All four Izuku’s gave Mina a deadpanned expression as Midnight laughed proudly at Mina's words.
Student Viewing Area
"Go, Mina! Go Izuku!" Mei and Toeu cheered as they bounced near the railing. The rest of the students were cheering at the intensity of the fight between Izuku and Mina.
Kyoka clicks her tongue. "I sometimes forget how flexible Mina is," She grumbled, looking down at her own body. "Girl is lucky to have curves and bends like that.”
"Don't be like that, Kyoka," Ochako said, adjusting her glasses. "I've seen Izuku stare at you with adoration." She playfully elbowed the rocker girl.
Setsuna sent a hand to pat Kyoka on the back. "You've got killer thigh, and our man knows it.” She said with a toothy grin.
“Guys, what is that?” Pony asked, spotting something in the sky above the stadium.
Mei looked up and zoomed in on the fissure with her Quirk. “It’s Bakugo!" She gasped, pointing at the psycho blonde.
“What?” Raphael and Kirishima exclaimed, jumping to their feet.
They all saw Katsuki flying straight toward Izuku, Mina, and Midnight in the ring.
“Izuku!” Class 1-AB screamed.
Izuku heard an explosion overhead and let his cones deal with Mina to look up. He spotted Katsuki flying towards him. "Look out!" He screamed as his clones grabbed Mina and Midnight, tossing them to safety as he changed his Morpher moments before another explosion went off a few feet from his face.
“DIE!”
BOOM!
The explosion was so big it shook the stadium. Mina and Midnight were blown away by the force of the explosion and were launched into the wall outside the ring before falling to the ground.
Gasps and screams erupted as debris hit the barrier, and the audience realized quickly this was not part of the fight.
Several Heroes and SPD officers rushed forward to evacuate people from any possible dangers.
As the dust settled, a figure became visible, as if it were emerging from a shadow.
Katsuki Bakugo.
He was no longer wearing the UA gym uniform. Katsuki wore black boots, matching pants, a white long-sleeve shirt, and a dark purple vest with black trim. His purple eyes were glowing ominously. "Get up, Deku," He hissed, stepping closer to Izuku's prone form.
“Freeze asshole!”
Bakugo stopped and turned around to see he was surrounded by Miruko, Ryukyu, and several SPD officers with their weapons drawn. “Not interested in extras,” He said with a dismissive wave of his hand. "This is a private matter." He pulled out what looked like a purple and gold spell, Mystic Morpher, and typed in a code. A moment later, a purple translucent barrier surrounded the ring.
Miruko leapt forward. “Luna Arc!” She bellowed, performing her signature kick into the barrier. Her foot slammed into the hard shimmering surface and was launched back by an unseen force. “What is this shit?”
“It is a magical barrier,” DECA said to all the Rangers, Heroes, and staff comms. “Trying to find a countermeasure in the archives.
Ryukyu let out a frustrated growl. “We need a full evacuation," She said, gesturing to the Hero students jumping out of the stands. "We need to have them assist in the evacuation of civilians.
Izuku groaned as he pushed himself to his feet. Smoke rose off the remains of his shirt, and the blue scales glowed over his body, faintly beneath the charred fabric, thrumming with power. “Have you lost all your mind!” He demanded, standing tall and glaring at his childhood bully. “You could have killed someone.” Izuku glanced over and felt a small sigh of relief to see Mina and Midnight moving and getting back to their feet.
Katsuki scoffed, standing casually amid the wreckage, shoulders loose, hands still smoking from the blast. "Only the strong thrive, and the weak are meant to fall beneath their greatness," He said, tilting his head to the side to make his smile more menacing. "I will show the world how great I am and knock you down to where you belong, underneath my foot, you Quirkless freak.” Katsuki let off a series of small explosions and growled at Deku. “You turned everyone against me! The School! Those worthless Extras! Even my own hag of a mother! My Master has shown me the way to correct everything.”
Izuku’s stomach twisted. Master.
Someone had gotten into Katsuki’s head, twisted his ideals, and fed into his worst impulses. The realization made Izuku’s jaw tighten.
Izuku’s brows furrowed as he watched the rage ripple through Katsuki’s body. His stance, his voice—it wasn’t natural.
"You have done that yourself, Katsuki," Izuku replied, narrowing his eyes. "I never thought I would see the day you would be someone's puppet."
For a fraction of a second, something flickered across Katsuki’s face.
Doubt.
Then rage.
A violent burst of energy radiated off Katsuki’s body, the ground beneath him cracking from its sheer force. His violet aura swirled, thick and malicious.
“I am no one puppet,” Katsuki hissed, his body glowing a dark malicious violet. “Katsuki is gone,” A jagged ripple of dark energy burst around Katsuki, crackling like violet lightning as it coiled around his body. He threw his head back, letting out a guttural growl as his flesh and spirit bent beneath the power’s command. Where moments ago he stood in shredded civilian clothes, he was now encased in sleek, purple-and-silver armor—a grim, wolfish knight reborn.
The breastplate molded itself to his torso, etched with bold, angular designs in deep indigo. Sharp, gold accents traced the armor’s edges, catching the light with each surge of power. Layer by layer, the metal plating extended down his arms and legs, forming a seamless suit of gleaming protection. A golden belt bore an ornate wolf-head emblem at his waist, its eyes alight with the same malicious violet glow that burned in Katsuki’s own.
His right arm hefted a towering shield carved into the likeness of a snarling wolf's muzzle. Every ridge and contour bristled with aggression, the edges tinted with silver so polished it reflected the chaos unfolding around him. In his left hand, a massive broadsword glimmered, the purple blade broad and angular, poised to strike with lethal precision. The sword's guard curved into stylized wolf ears, uniting the blade and shield in a single, predatory theme.
Finally, the helmet sealed into place around Katsuki’s head with a low, metallic hiss. The visor narrowed into an intimidating gold V-shape, mirroring the fierce, lupine design of the shield. Beneath that visor, his eyes smoldered with inhuman, violet rage, the aura of dark power radiating from him in waves. A short cape, colored in deep purples and lined with faint silver, draped over his shoulders, swaying with each subtle movement.
He lowered his sword, and the tip scraped against the floor in a shower of sparks. Then, in a voice twisted by raw fury, he snarled, “I am Koragg, the Knight Wolf—and you will bow before my might.”
The final word reverberated through the air, echoing the malevolent power that pulsed within his new form.
Izuku stared in shock as Katsuki—no, Koragg the Knight Wolf—stood before him, clad in ominous purple and silver armor, his wolf-shaped shield gleaming under the stadium lights. The air around him rippled with dark energy, the sheer presence of his corrupted power pressing down like an oppressive weight.
But Izuku refused to back down.
His emerald eyes burned as he clenched his fists. With a fierce shout, he ripped off the remains of his tattered shirt. He brought up a red and gold Mystic Morpher. "I will not bow to you or your Master,” Izuku flipped open his Morpher. “Magical Source, Mystic Force!”
Crimson light engulfed him, spiraling around his limbs as metallic armor formed over his body. The first thing to appear was the golden chest plate, marked with a bold flaming insignia, its edges sharp and proud like the battle spirit within him. His arms and legs followed, encased in sleek red and black armor reinforced with silver and gold plating.
His hands tightened as his new weapon formed in his grasp—a massive broadsword, similar to Katsuki’s but burning with a righteous red glow. In his other arm, a wolf-shaped shield emerged, red and silver, its snarling design mirroring the warrior’s unbreakable will.
Finally, the helmet sealed into place, locking with a satisfying clank. The V-shaped golden visor shimmered as Izuku raised his sword, his presence now just as formidable as his rival's.
“Red Wolf Warrior!” Izuku called out as power crackled through the air around him, his stance steady, his expression firm. He met Katsuki’s glowing purple gaze without fear.
“I won’t let you destroy everything, Katsuki,” Izuku declared, his voice filled with resolve. “If you’ve chosen to become a Knight of Darkness, then I’ll stand against you as the Warrior of Flame!”
His red aura surged, igniting the battlefield in a storm of fiery power.
This wasn’t just a battle anymore.
This was a war between light and dark.
Chapter 41: Announcement
Chapter Text
Hello Readers,
I want to begin by apologizing for my recent absence.
Earlier this year, I experienced a series of difficult events. My grandmother passed away at the end of February. She was 97 and the last grandparent I had left. We were incredibly close, and her loss hit me hard.
Just two weeks after her funeral, I was let go from my job—one I had devoted nearly five years to—after I reported unethical behavior. Despite my loyalty, I was offered severance and took it, knowing they wanted me gone and that the fine print of my initial contract left me with little recourse.
Needless to say, this triggered a period of depression. Most of my time went into job hunting to keep a roof over my family’s head. During that time, I lost my creative spark. My muses for fanfiction vanished, and I found it hard to even look at my drafts. The negative comments and complaints about my stories only added to the weight, making me question my ability as a writer.
For a while, I felt truly lost.
Still, I found some solace in focusing on my original work. I finished the first draft of my novel—428 pages and 129,000 words—and completed a shorter novel draft at 225 pages and 55,000 words.
I'm happy to share that I’ve now started a new job. I’m hopeful that this fresh start will help me reconnect with the stories I’ve left unfinished. My current goal is to edit a chapter of one of my novels and complete two chapters of a fic before returning fully to my book projects.
Thank you for your patience and support. It means more than you know.
