My Anti-Hero Academia

Chapter 15: Changes: Part 2 of 2

Summary:

Jason fights, Eri helps, Mitsuki rages. Inko calls Hisashi.

Chapter Text

Jason went through his required classes on autopilot, he needed to focus on something, but it was hard to focus, and the coroners report in his bag only seemed to weigh him down. He didn't want to read the report because he was terrified of what it would say. This was the third time he'd lost his mom. The first time was in the other universe when she'd sold him out to the Joker in an attempt to save her own life. He couldn't necessarily hate her for that. He'd used his body to cover the bomb in the hopes that she would make it out alive, unfortunately she'd been hurt worse than him somehow. He'd also been brought back from the Lazarus pit. The second time was when the bastard had killed her before bringing her back. Now she was dead for real, and there was nothing he could do to change that, no matter how hard he tried. All he could do was go to her funeral after his dad, made the arrangements.

When lunch came around, he and Eri sat with Tsu, Eri sitting in his lap and eating after he's assured her that her food was safe.

Anna looked at them and cooed. "They look so cute!"

"You didn't have anything to do with that, did you?" Elsa asked.

"Nope, but I will give Izuku and Ochako the push they need."

"WH-wh-what!" Izuku stammered out.

"Don't fight me on this." Anna said, a determined look on her face. "Otherwise, I'll bring in the big guns."

"What?"

Anna looked around and found Mina before walking over to her. She talked to Mina who squealed in delight and affirmation.

"I think you and Ochako will be dating by the end of the year." Johnny said.

Izuku went beet red.

After lunch it was time for Hero basic training. They changed into the UA Gym uniform and went to the Arena.

"All right." All Might said, looking more Heroic today after having his body completely healed from his past injuries. "Today we are doing single battles to prepare for the one-on-one event during the sports Festival. Who wants to go first?"

"I DO!" Jason yelled jumping up, not realizing how tense he was, but defiantly wanting to fight no holds barred.

The arena went quiet. They hadn't seen Jason this... unhinged before.

"Well come on to the arena and you can pick your opponent." All Might said.

Jason gave Eri to Anna and went down to the Arena. "I want to fight..." he looked around, making a show of it, until he said. "... Bakugo."

Bakugo walked down to the arena and looked at Jason, he had a bad feeling about this, like Jason wasn't going to hold back unless All Might physically held him back. That was fine by him.

"All right." All Might said. "You may use your Quirks, and so long as you don't go overboard, anything goes. Also. The winner gets to choose their next opponent."

"I choose Deku!" Bakugo yelled. This was his time to fight that shitty nerd, he felt a weight drop in his stomach. Why was he feeling this?

"Fight!" All Might yelled.

Bakugo flew at Jason using his explosions to get in close, a terrible mistake on his part.

Jason ran at Bakugo, clotheslined him before jumping on his back and slamming him into the ground. "Why did you tell Izuku to 'take a swan dive off the Aldera Junior High roof and hope for a Quirk in the next life.'?" He hissed into Bakugo's ear. "You had to know that I would have found out eventually."

Bakugo tensed from hearing that.

Jason let go, grabbed Bakugo, and suplexed him into the ground before rolling onto his back and ramming his knee into his back. "Were you just saying that to be a dick, or did you want him to kill himself!" He hissed again. He grabbed Bakugo in a choke hold. "If it weren't for Anna and Elsa he would have jumped. His blood would be on your hands!"

Bakugo created an explosion and knocked Jason off. "YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT!" He yelled. "I WAS THERE THE DAY THAT HAPPENED! I WATCHED AS THEY PULLED HIM AWAY FROM THE EDGE!"

In the stands everyone began talking amongst themselves... all but five. Johnny and Rogue were suppressing their anger while Anna and Elsa looked shocked, and Izuku had gone white as a sheet.

"Then why didn't you do anything about it?" Jason asked.

"I TRIED PUSHING DEKU TO BECOME STRONGER! IT WAS THE ONLY WAY I COULD THINK OF TO TRY AND MAKE IT UP TO HIM! BY PUSHING HIM I COULD MAKE SURE THAT HE BECAME THE HERO HE WANTED TO BE!"

"That's not what he needed! If you wanted to spar with him then you should have just asked instead of whatever the hell you call what you did."

"I'VE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE UP FOR THAT FUCKING MISTAKE SINCE I TOLD HIM TO JUMP! I THOUGHT THAT IF I TURNED THE OLD ME INTO A TRAINER THEN HE COULD EVENTUALLY FORGET WHAT HAPPENED!"

"You don't just forget someone telling you to kill yourself."

All Might looked at Bakugo to Midoriya and felt a surge of anger. "Young Bakugo! Young Haywood! This training session is over! You may use this period as a study period. Young Bakugo. Come with me."

Bakugo followed All Might, and Jason went to talk to Hatsumé.


When he got to the support department, he saw Kristoff sitting at a table working on something.

"Hey Kristoff." He said startling the blond.

"Oh. Jason. It's you."

"Yeah. It's me. Is Hatsumé here?"

"Yeah. She's in the back room." He said pointing to the back.

Jason went back and found Hatsumé working on something. "Hey Hatsumé."

"Whoa!" Hatsumé yelled.

"Sorry. I came to ask you something, and request you start on something before the others."

"Sure. What's up?"

"I was wondering if you could make the wrist mounted computer."

"Funny you should ask. That's what I'm currently working on."

"Oh. How's it coming? I know that computers in general take time..."

"Done." Hatsumé said handing him a bracer that looked a little thicker than his I Phone.

"This is amazing. How did you get this done so quickly? I was expecting at least a week if not a month."

"These are surplus." Hatsumé said, showing him a crate of the bracer. "During the earliest days of Heroes, they used these wrist computers to check the Hero boards, the wanted posters, and the bounties. Now they are given to the support class for the beginners to practice on. When I saw this in your list of things you wanted made, I got to work and here you go. We have like... five more crates of the things?"

"Thanks." Jason said putting it on his arm and tightened the bracer. He put in the encryptions and codes for the bat computer, and it lit up. "This is amazing. Thank you."

"You're welcome. What's the next thing you want made, and I'll add it to the list."

"List?"

"Yeah. Not a lot of people like me working on their gear because of all the explosions that happen around me, but I still have a list of things people want made."

Jason scrolled through his new wrist computer and showed her three things.

"Pick one."

Hatsumé looked at the three images and squealed in delight.

"I'll make the..."

Jason's phone rang.

"Hello." He said after he answered it.

"Hey." Anna said through the phone. "Eri was wondering where you went. I think she's getting bored of playing with Olaf, and a little scared that you and Himiko aren't here."

"Oh. Okay. I'm in the support classroom. I'm heading back right now."

"Okay. Tell Kristoff I said hi."

"Will do." Jason said before hanging up.

"I'll see you later." Jason nodded to Hatsumé.

"Okay. Bye."

Jason walked out but stopped by Kristoff. "Anna says hi."

"Tell her that Sven and I say hi back."

"Will do." Jason said leaving the support classroom. He walked back to the classroom when he bumped into someone.

"Watch it." A harsh pompous voice snarled.

Jason looked at him and saw a well-defined facial structure. The kid looked like he was around his age, with blue eyes and brown hair. The thing that startled Jason the most was the sheer and utter hatred and disgust that rolled off him.

"Is there a problem?" The kid asked.

"No." Jason said.

"Aren't you going to apologize?"

"For what?"

"For bumping into me."

"No." Jason said walking away.

"Hey Graydon!" an annoying voice said. "Wait up! Oh. I see you ran into one of those 1A snobs."

"Yes. He needs to be taken down a peg."

"Shall we."

"Do you really want to do this?" Jason asked, turning around taking a picture with the wrist computer before shutting it off. "I'm not in the mood for your inferiority complex, and I can't promise to hold back."

"Ooh hoo!" The blonde kid said touching Graydon's neck. "We can beat you."

They both turned into Jason.

"You look like me, but do you know my style?"

Graydon jumped and brought his foot down on Jason.

"No. You have my body, but you have your own skill sets." Jason said activating his armor.

Graydon kicked Jason only to have his leg caught by Jason, and his pants leg burned, and twisted out of Jason's grasp with the flexibility of an Olympic gymnast.

"Monoma!" He shouted.

"Right." Monoma said, reaching for Jason.

Jason caught Monoma's arm and burned his blazer.

"Do you really think that I am afraid of you?" Monoma asked with a crazed smirk, like, if he beat Jason that would validate his inferiority complex.

"Just wait until the pain starts." Jason said.

Monoma pulled his hand away.

"You wouldn't be so tough without that armor." He yelled.

Jason's armor disappeared and he walked up to Monoma. "What were you saying?"

Monoma gasped and shuddered before stammering.

Jason walked away from Monoma towards the Arena.

"That's right!" Monoma shouted. "Next time we won't go so easy on you."

Jason flipped Monoma off before he looked down at his wrist computer.

Name: Monoma Neita

Gender: Male

Birthday: May 13th

Father: Unknown

Mother: Unknown

Siblings: Unknown

Blood type: A

Quirk: Copy (He can copy an individual's Quirk just by touching as little as a few strands of hair.)

'Strange.' Jason thought. 'Why doesn't the Bat Computer have his family listed? Thoughts for another time I guess.' He scrolled over to the other one... Graydon.

Name: Graydon Creed Jr.

Gender: Male

Birthday: Unknown

Father: Graydon Creed Sr.

Mother: Raven Creed

Siblings: Unknown

Blood type: Unknown

Quirk: Morph (Shapeshifting.)

'Hm.' Jason thought as he walked into the arena.

"Jason!" Eri yelled running to him.

"Hi Eri!" Jason yelled back before dropping to one knee. "What's up Eri?"

"What's that?" Eri asked pointing at his wrist computer.

"Oh this? It's a new support Item I'm taking for a test run."

"What is it?"

"It's a computer."

"Who's that sugar?" Rogue asked.

Jason showed her the screen with Graydon Creed.

The room seemed to drop ten degrees.

"Jason." Rogue said in a hollow voice.

"What is it?" He asked.

"That man. He needs to die."

"What?" he asked in shock, Rogue wasn't opposed to killing, but she never outright wanted to kill anyone.

"That man. He's the leader of 'The Friends of Humanity'."

Rogue had told them about 'The Friends of Humanity'. It wasn't good.

"Jason?" Rogue asked. "What is he doing here?"

"I don't know."


Graydon Creed waited outside class 1B. He took his phone out and opened his contacts before selecting one number.

"What?" A voice asked from the other end.

"She's here."

"Keep an eye on her. I'll find some way to get there."

"Are you willing to wait until the sports Festival?"

"Why don't I just send your parents to get her? They could say that she's been missing and could claim to be her parents."

"If you could be patient..."

"WE NEED HER BACK LAST WEEK!"

"Okay, okay. Do whatever you need to do."

"I will try and get them there tomorrow at the latest. Be ready."

"All right. I'll pull the fire alarm or something. Send me a text when you're ready."

"I will." The owner of the voice hung up.

Graydon walked into Class 1B.


All Might walked Bakugo into the office.

"Is Nedzu Sensei in?" All Might asked.

"He's in with Himiko right now."

"When will he be done?"

"Let me check."

"Thank you."

The Receptionist called Nedzu's office.

"Hello?" Nedzu asked when he answered the phone.

"All Might is here to see you Nedzu Sensei."

"Ah. Thank you, Emi. Please send him in."

"Very well."

Emi hung up. "Please go in All Might."

"Thank you, Emi."

Emi smiled and went back to her work.

All Might and Bakugo walked into Principal Nedzu's office.

A few minutes later Himiko walked out and sat down.

"How is Himiko today?" Emi asked.

"Meh." Himiko said taking out an artificial blood pack. She took a sip and blanched at the taste.

"Something wrong Himiko?"

"The artificial blood tastes weird. I know that Recovery Girl says that I need to get my nutrients back up, but these taste like crap."

Emi was shocked. This was the most Himiko had ever talked to her. 'Huh. I guess Nedzu sensei is having a positive influence on her.'


All Might and Bakugo walked into Principal Nedzu's office.

"Ahh. All Might. What can I help you with?"

"I have distressing news Sensei."

"What is it?"

"Would you like to tell him Young Bakugo, or would you like me to tell him?"

Bakugo looked away in shame.

"It would appear that Young Bakugo told Young Midoriya to 'Jump off the roof at Aldera Junior High and pray for a Quirk in the next life.'."

"Oh my." Nedzu said. "Did he try to?"

"Yes. If it wasn't for Anna and Elsa Martin, He might have succeeded."

"Oh my." Nedzu said folding his hands. "This is very serious. When did this happen?"

"Eighth grade." Bakugo mumbled.

"What was that?"

"Eighth grade." Bakugo said louder.

"Where were his friends?" All Might asked. "I can't see his friends letting you do that."

"They weren't there."

All Might and Nedzu rubbed their faces.

"Why would you do that?" Nedzu asked.

Bakugo went quiet.

"I think I understand. I do not want to expel you from UA. I think you have a bright future here, but you can't be around Young Midoriya. So. As I see it you have two options. You can either be taken out of the Hero Course and be put into the General Education course until you can prove that you are Hero Material. Or. You can be expelled from UA and try your hand at another Hero Academy. I should tell you that there are some conditions though. You will take a week's suspension, and when you go back into the Hero Course you will go into Class 1B."

Bakugo looked at Nedzu.


After school.

After the last bell Jason asked Momo if they could talk about class President business.

"What did you want to talk about?" Momo asked.

Jason opened his phone and showed her a list of their classmates.

"Yes? That's our class."

"Two things. First. As class president and Vice President, I think it is our duty to make sure that we acknowledge our classmates' birthdays. Nothing huge, but something like a card and a candy bar or something."

"I think that is a valid idea."

"Great. We need to find out what their favorite candy, treat, or snack is."

"I agree. We can do that tomorrow in class."

"Yeah. Next. I think we should try and get our classmates families here to support them for the Sports Festival."

"I think that's a wonderful idea. You are an excellent Class President."

"Thank you. When do you want to meet to plan this?"

"Tomorrow or the day after?"

"That should work."

"Very well. I will see you tomorrow, Jason."

"Goodbye Yaoyorozu."

"You can call me Momo."

"Oh. Okay. Goodbye Momo."

After Momo left Jason went back to his room where the rest of his friends were doing homework.

He looked at his phone and saw that it was 3:15.

"Hey Rogue?"

"Yeah?"

"I need your help at 5:00."

"Okay. What's up?"

"You will need to borrow Eri's Quirk."

"Oookay?"

"I'll explain later." Jason walked over to Eri and knelt down. "Hey Eri, Can Rogue and I borrow your Quirk?"

"Why?" Eri asked shyly, hugging her knees to her chest.

"There is someone that I think your Quirk will be able to help."

"My Quirk doesn't help anyone. It's a curse that can only hurt people."

Jason felt Eri's self-hatred and disgust at herself, and wanted to torture the man who had hurt her. He wanted to discover new tortures just so he could torture him with torture that no one in the history of torture's been tortured with the torture like the torture he'd torture that monster with.

He picked her up and hugged her. "You matter." He spoke. "You are a person and deserve to be treated as one. You are too young to be in the kind of pain you're in. You didn't deserve what he did to you. It wasn't your fault."

This caught everyone by surprise.

Rogue touched Eri's hand with her uncovered one and got a swarm of emotions. Doubt, self-hatred, disgust, self-loathing. "Oh sugar." She spoke. "You are important, and cherished. You deserve..."

Rogue was interrupted when the door opened and Inko ran in.

"Izuku!" Inko yelled. "Why didn't you tell me!"

"Tell you what?" Izuku gulped.

"That Katsuki told you to Jump off Aldera Junior High and hope for a Quirk In the next life!"


Katsuki Bakugo walked into his house only to have his mom grab him by his ear and drag him towards her before smacking him upside the head.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!" Mitsuki Bakugo punched Katsuki in the head. "I GOT A CALL FROM YOUR PRINCIPAL SAYING THAT YOU TOLD IZUKU TO JUMP OFF THE ROOF OF YOUR SCHOOL IN EIGHTH GRADE! WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING!" Mitsuki slapped Katsuki. "I ALWAYS HATED YOUR TEACHERS FOR MAKING YOU THINK YOU WERE GODS GIFT TO EARTH, BUT THIS BULLSHIT CROSSES THE FUCKING LINE!" Mitsuki punched Katsuki in the head. "GET TO YOUR FUCKING ROOM! YOUR GROUNDED UNTIL YOU GO BACK TO SCHOOL! NO I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG YOU'RE GROUNDED FOR! YOU'RE GROUNDED UNTIL I SAY SO! NOW I HAVE TO CALL INKO AND APOLOGIZE FOR YOU!"

Katsuki walked past the kitchen and saw his dad.

His dad looked pissed but ignored him. As much as the hag's physical abuse hurt, his dads silent treatment hurt worse than any physical abuse the hag could put him through. His dad was always quiet, but when he went completely silent it was the worst. Maybe if his dad had been left in charge of his punishment instead of his mom then he wouldn't have turned out like this.

Mitsuki picked up the phone and dialed Inko's number.


Inko picked up her phone after the third ring and heard heavy breathing. "Hello?" She asked.

"Hey Inko." Mitsuki said in a tired voice.

"Oh. Hello Mitsuki. How are you doing?"

"First off let me just say how sorry I am for my little shit of a kid."

"Sorry for what?"

"You didn't know that Katsuki told Izuku to jump off the school roof?"

"HE WHAT!" Inko asked worried.

"Yeah. In Junior High. I swear that I only found out today. If I had known, then I'd have taken care of it sooner."

"I know Mitsuki, but I have to find Izuku, and get to the bottom of this."

"I understand. Maybe I can call you tomorrow? If not I'll talk to you on Tuesday."

"Yeah." Inko said. "Talk to you tomorrow." Inko hung up and ran to find Izuku.


The friends were trying to comfort Eri when Inko ran in

"Izuku!" Inko yelled. "Why didn't you tell me!"

"Tell you what?" He gulped.

"That Katsuki told you to Jump off Aldera Junior High and hope for a Quirk In the next life!"

Izuku gulped. "I um..."

"Izuku. How much have you been hiding from me?"

"We might want to go back to our room." Izuku shook.

Jason looked over at Izuku.

Inko and Izuku left the room.

"What do you think happened?"

"I don't know." Jason said.

"Is Izuku in trouble?" Eri asked.

"No sugar." Rogue said. "He's not in trouble."

"Okay."

Jason looked at his phone.

"Come on Rogue. It's time to go."

"Okay. Hey Eri. Want to come with us?"

"I don't know."

"You don't have to do something you don't want to." Jason said.

"I'll come with you." Eri said.

Jason put Eri on his back, piggyback style, and pulled a Hoodie over them before putting the hood on Eri. "Is this okay?" He asked.

"Uh huh." Eri said, holding onto his neck with all of her strength. Jason took the hoodie off and created a harness before tossing it at Elsa who froze it causing it to flash cool. She grabbed it from the air and tossed it back. "Want to feel?" Jason asked, holding the harness up to Eri. 

Eri touched the harness. It felt warm, but not uncomfortable. "What is it?" She asked meekly. 

"It's a harness. I'll put it on, and you'll sit inside against my back. That way you don't have to use so much energy to hold on."

"Okay."

Jason put the harness on and Rogue put Eri inside. 

"You okay sugar?" Rogue asked Eri.

"Uh-huh." 

"Okay. Hold on." Jason said, putting the oversized hoodie on again, covering Eri.

Jason and Rogue said their goodbyes before walking out, Eri hidden and holding onto Jason's neck, despite the harness.

Once outside Rogue picked Jason and Eri up before flying them towards Dagoba beach.


Touya walked towards Dagoba beach.

'I don't even know why I'm doing this. The kid will probably be a no show.'

"Hey." A voice said.

Touya turned around to see a man with light blue hair and a hoodie covering his face.

"Do I know you?"

"No, but I know you. I have a Party Invite ."

"Come talk to me tomorrow."

"Are you sure? The invite might not be available tomorrow."

"I'm supposed to be meeting someone."

"Fine, but you don't know what you're missing. It might be game over though."

"Meet me tomorrow."

Fine." The man pouted before walking away.

Touya shook his head and continued walking towards Dagoba beach. When he got there, he saw a couple waiting there.

"Are you the guy I met last night?" He asked.

"I am." The same voice said from under a helmet.

"Who's she?"

"She's the one who can help you."

"How?"

"Can I show you?" The girl asked.

"You can show me anything you like." He said suggestively.

The girl walked up to him. "This might hurt a little." She spoke.

"I'm used to pain."

The girl touched his chest and activated Eri's Quirk.


Jason and Rogue landed at Dagoba beach three minutes before 5:00.

"Eri?" Rogue asked. "Is it okay if I borrow your Quirk now?"

"Uh huh." Eri said from Jason's back.

"Give me your hand sugar."

Eri reached out of Jason's hoodie and let Rogue touch her hand.

Rogue borrowed Eri's Quirk and they waited.

While they waited Jason created his helmet.

They only had to wait until 5:02.

A man with scars over his body walked up to him.

"Are you the guy I met last night?" Touya asked.

"I am." Jason said.

"Who's she?" Touya asked.

"She's the one who can help you."

"How?"

"Can I show you?" Rogue asked.

"You can show me anything you like." Touya said suggestively.

Rogue walked up to Touya. "This might hurt a little."

"I'm used to pain."

Rogue touched Touya's chest and activated Eri's Quirk.

Touya felt pain like he'd never felt before. It felt like he was being... undone? The pain became so intense that he thought he was going to pass out. Images of Endeavor flashed through his memories, and he bit back the pain. He let rage take over and fought through the pain.

When Rogue stopped, she looked at Touya. Not as the scarred man he had been, but as a renewed individual.

"You clean up nice hon."

Touya looked down and saw that he was sweating profusely. The staples that had been holding his scars in place were on the ground with flecks of his blood. He looked at his hands and saw they were scar free. He tore off his shirt and saw his arms were healed. He took his phone out and activated the front camera looking at his face. All of his scars were gone. "Ho-how did you do that?"

"I reversed your injuries." Rogue said.

He looked at her in shock.

"How's the pain?" Jason asked.

"It's gone." Touya said in awe.

"Good. Now..." Jason took out his phone and showed Touya a picture of Shoto.

Touya looked at Shoto's school I.D. And felt rage engulf him. The last time he'd seen Shoto, his youngest brother was happy and smiling. He didn't have a scar over his eye. Touya's rage blinded him, and he flashed back to better days.


"Get out Touya!" Shoto yelled pushing Touya out of his room. "Get out! Get out! Can't you go any faster!"

"Oh no." Touya said. "Gravity... it's increasing on me." Touya fell on Shoto.

"No, it's not!" Shoto yelled.

"Uh huh." Touya said indignantly. "The same thing happened yesterday." Touya said completely falling on Shoto.

"You rotten brother!" Shoto yelled.

"How sad for you." Touya snarked.

Shoto crawled out from under Touya and walked into his room. "Why are you so weird!" He yelled before slamming the sliding door on Touya's head.

Touya smiled at the memory and felt tears roll down his cheeks.


He saw Shoto sitting on the couch, curled up in a blanket, crying. "Hey there buddy." He spoke.

"He hurt you again." Shoto said with tears in his eyes.

"It's not that bad."

"Why does he hurt you?"

"He wants me to be stronger than All Might."

"But All Might's the strongest."

"Don't worry about that. Want to watch a movie?"

Shoto nodded his head.

"Great. You pick the movie while I go get snacks. "

Touya grabbed a few juice boxes, Hi-chew, Pocky, and rice cakes. When he went back to the den, he saw that Shoto had picked out 'The Little Mermaid.' He sat down and opened two juice boxes and Pocky and they watched 'The Little Mermaid.'


Touya had just finished a training session with Endeavor and was outside with his younger siblings.

He sparked his blue fire Quirk to life.

Shoto was so intrigued by his blue flames that he reached forward.

Touya and Shoto were filled with so much light back then, and Endeavor snuffed it out.


Touya looked at the people standing in front of him. "Where's Endeavor!" He demanded.

"Not sure where he lives, but Shoto goes to UA. I'm sure if you go there then you could talk to Shoto." Rogue said.

"Would he even remember me?"

"I don't know, but you could at least talk to him."

"Fine. I'll come talk to him tomorrow, but Endeavor has to die!"

"Agreed." Jason said.

Touya looked at himself in the camera again.

He wasn't in pain anymore. He didn't need painkillers anymore. He was able to use his Quirk without pain again.

"Do you need a place to stay tonight?" Jason asked.

"I've got a place."

"Is it on the streets?"

Touya went quiet before saying: "I have a friends house I can stay at."

"What should we do?" Rogue asked.

"Guy's. Don't worry. I'll be at UA tomorrow to talk to Shoto. I won't do something stupid and go to kill Endeavor yet. I want to crush him and take everything that matters to him!"

"I'll help." Jason said.

"Why? What did Endeavor do to you?"

"To me? Nothing. To his family... He needs to be put down."

Touya looked at Jason. 'Who is this guy?' He asked himself. 'Willing to take on the number two pro Hero.'

"We have to get going." Rogue said.

"Okay. Thank you again for what you did."

"You're welcome." Rogue said before picking Jason up and flew away.

Touya watched as Jason and Rogue flew off before walking away from the beach. 'I'll see you tomorrow Shoto.'


Johnny was in the garage at UA.

"You aren't backing down, now, are you?" Zarathos asked.

"No. It's just been while since we've gone hunting."

"Well, the sooner we..."

Johnny and Zarathos felt an immense pressure. Johnny's flesh began melting away as Zarathos took over leaving pale white bone in its place. As Zarathos awoke a spark flashed across his eye's, and his skull ignited in flames.

Ghost Rider walked towards his bike, and pulled his chain out of his left saddlebag, and slung it over his right shoulder to his left hip. He took his shotgun out of his right saddlebag and slung it over his left shoulder to right hip. His bike became demonic as he straddled the seat.

Ghost Rider tore out of the garage and towards the area the pressure was coming from. He tore through the streets of Musutafu and moved towards the soul of the innocent. When he arrived at the area where the innocent soul was at, he got off his bike and walked towards a body.

He saw that the victim was a woman. Her body had been ravaged.

Ghost Rider growled. He walked back to his bike and pulled an emergency blanket out of his left saddlebag and opened it before covering the woman's body.

"You... Innocent. I will avenge you."

He looked over and saw markings in the ground. He grew his flames brighter, and he saw writing. He walked around and saw writing carved into the ground.

Quirk-less must die

When Johnny saw that through the Riders eye's he felt rage build in the pit of his stomach, and he let out a roar that that shook passers-by to their bones. He jumped on his bike and followed the stench of this injustice and evil.

As he tore off, it began raining. He drove through the rain following the stench of injustice and ended up at a bar. He walked up to the door and knocked. A small panel opened up showing a man's eyes. Johnny felt like he'd been slapped with wickedness. 'Can I kill them?' Zarathos asked.

'I'm tempted to let you."

"What!" The man demanded.

"You... Guilty!" Zarathos yelled, kicking the door off its hinges and running into the bar. When he got into the Bar he looked around and saw five threats.

"All of you... Guilty!"

One of them grabbed a pole and changed it into a Katana.

Another changed his body into yellow gas.

A third changed his arms into swords

A fourth changed his hands into guns.

A woman changed her hair into barbed wire.

Johnny and Zarathos connected the injuries from the woman in the alley to their weapons.

"I'm going to kill you first." He said swinging his chain whip through the air at the woman.

The woman threw her barbed wire hair and tangled up Johnny's chain.

Ghost Rider pulled hard, pulling the woman towards his. "Your soul is stained with the blood of the innocent. Look into my eyes and feel their pain!"

The woman shrieked in agony as her soul was seared with the pain of the innocent.

The man with the Quirk that changed himself into gas surrounded Ghost Rider.

Ghost Rider spun his whip in a circle creating a funnel and sending fire into it.

The gas screamed as he burned.

The Villain with swords for arms ran at Johnny only to get shot in the face with hellfire powered buckshot.

"Screw this!" The first guy yelled running.

Ghost Rider flicked his chain, and wrapped it around the man, and pulled cutting him in half and cauterizing the wounds.

The man with the guns looked at Ghost Rider before running.

Ghost Rider grabbed him and pulled him towards him.

"Your soul is stained with the blood of the innocent. Look into my eyes and feel their pain!"

Ghost Rider walked out of the bar as the man's screams died down.

"Villains beware... the Ghost Rider." He said as he got onto his bike and drove off into the night.


Graydon walked into his apartment that night and saw his parents getting ready for tomorrow. His father was assembling a custom gun that he could hide under his trench coat His mother was looking at a picture of the girl... Eri? He thought was her name. His mother became Eri and aged her to his mother's age and added a few finishing touches, so she didn't look like an exact replica of Eri.

"How was school?" His mother asked.

"Not bad. I got into a fight with the girls current guardian."

"And?"

"I let him win." He said before grabbing a pair of weights and doing some curls.

"Why?" His father snarled looking at the 100-pound weights his son was curling. "You could have beaten him easily. With my strength, your mother's flexibility, and Quirk. You should have crushed his bones into dust."

"His Quirk is difficult to work around." He said showing them his burnt pant leg.

"So, he's got a fire Quirk. Who cares!"

"He can produce flaming armor."

His mother looked at him. "That's going to be problematic."

"Just turn into someone with fireproof skin."

"It doesn't work like that Creed."

"Why not?"

"Just because we can make ourselves fireproof doesn't mean we can hold onto things that are hot. We have our limits."

"Fine." Creed growled.

"How are you getting in?" Graydon asked.

We sent out a call to the police today saying that we were looking for our daughter, and they were the next police station on our list."

"And they told you about her?"

"Yeah. Apparently, the principal had to let the police know even though he knows she was running from Overhaul."

"So, we go in, get the girl, and get out?"

"If we are lucky."

"Hopefully, they resist so I can crack some skulls." Creed said.

"I'm going to bed now."

"Good night." Raven said.

"Keep all that damn moaning down!" Creed growled after him.

"Then make my room soundproof!" Graydon yelled back.

"Let him be." Raven said.

"It's so weird. Did you ever do that?"

"Yes. I wanted to see why guys were always making a big deal about it. Girls have way more fun by the way."

Creed was repulsed by that. "You mean..."

"Yeah. He's probably figured that out by now."

"What!"

"If he chooses to use a female form when he's older we are going to support him!" Raven glared at her husband. "Right!?"

"But..."

Raven grabbed Creed and slammed his head into the table. "RIGHT?!"

"Right." Creed grumbled.

Graydon was on his room where he turned on his computer and opened some porn and played it. He opened his phone and began texting Overhaul.

Graydon Creed Jr.: can I get the cure now?

Overhaul: not yet. Get me Eri and I'll give it to you.

Graydon Creed Jr.: I'll get you Eri. Just make me normal again.

Overhaul: we have a deal. Remember.

Graydon Creed Jr.: yeah. We have a deal.

Graydon turned off his phone and went to bed.


Jason and Rogue were walking through a store. They had decided that since they were out and about, they might as well get Eri some actual clothes and toys and other things little girls needed.

"So." Rogue said swinging Eri with Jason as they walked.

"Yeah?" Jason asked.

"Is there a reason why your hoodie is like three sizes too big? You look like All Might sensei.

"You're just jealous that I can pull it off." Jason snarked.

"Okay. Yeah. Sure. I'm jealous that you can wear an oversized hoodie. Guess what? We all have oversized hoodies."

"Yeah, but I look fabulous in mine."

Rogue began laughing. "You did not just use the word fabulous."

"So, what if I did?"

"Are you turning into Yuga?"

Jason shuddered. "Not on your life. In fact, I bet that his Hero name will be something like 'Twinkle-Shine' or something like that."

Rogue laughed harder. "Or what about 'I CAN'T STOP SHINING!'?"

It was Jason's turn to laugh. "Or what about 'I CAN'T STOP SPARKLING'?"

The two laughed a good long laugh.

"Thank you." Jason said wiping a tear away. "I needed that."

"You're welcome."

"What's so funny?" Eri asked them.

"Just someone in our class." Jason said.

"Oh. Okay."

Jason heard a scoff.

"Is that your daughter?" An older woman asked.

"Yes ma'am." Jason said seriously. "We had her when we were ten years old!"

The woman looked scandalized.

"No, you stupid shit!" He growled. "This is my five-year-old cousin, and she's one of my best friends! Now do yourself a favor and don't assume because it makes an ass out of both of us!"

The trio walked away to the clothing aisle.

"See anything you like Eri?" Jason asked.

Eri and Jason walked down the aisle while Rogue went to get a cart.

"What do you want?" Jason asked looking at all of the shirts and clothes.

Eri grabbed a shirt and pulled a shirt off of the rack.

Jason grabbed it and saw the little ponies on the front of the shirt.

"You sure?"

"Uh huh." Eri nodded.

They walked through the clothes.

Every time Eri saw something she liked they put it in the cart.

Rogue helped Eri pick out underwear because Jason had no idea what to do there.

"It's not that hard sugar." Rogue said holding up the girl's underwear. "Or is this because your embarrassed to touch girl's underwear?"

"First off." Jason said. "I'm not Mineta. Second. I have no idea what to do."

He lowered his voice and whispered. "I was fifteen when I died."

"So? Johnny was single, and I didn't have a kid, yet I can touch guys underwear just fine."

"I think you're missing the point."

"No." Rogue said. "I think you are." She said tossing the underwear at him.

Jason caught the pack and put it in the cart.

They moved onto socks and shoes.

Eri picked up some shoes that had lights in the heels.

Rogue put them on Eri, and they watched as Eri ran through the store fascinated by the light up heels.

They walked towards the toy aisle and let Eri pick out some toys.

"What do you want Eri?" Rogue asked pointing at the toys.

"They don't have you guys." She said pointing at the Hero toys.

"What?" Jason asked.

"They don't have you guys."

"We aren't Heroes yet hon." Rogue said picking Eri up. "They only make toys of Heroes."

"I want you guys."

"How about this." Jason said. "Tomorrow we will ask Momo if she can make toys of us. How's that?"

"Yay!" Eri shouted, smiling for the first time. It felt odd, her face pulling in opposite directions.

Jason and Rogue looked at each other.

"She Just smiled!" Rogue said. "She just smiled!"

She took out her phone and turned on the video camera.

"Eri? Do you want toys of us?"

"Yeah!" Eri smiled again. She liked it.

Rogue laughed as she sent the video to their friends.

Jason called Momo on his phone while Rogue was taking pictures of Eri smiling.

"Momo!" He yelled into the phone when she answered.

"Yes?" Momo asked when her hearing came back.

"Can you make toys!?"

"Um... in what capacity?" She asked.

"Children's toys."

"If I had the specifications for them then yes."

"Great. Can you meet me tomorrow morning before class?"

"I suppose so. What is this about?"

"It's about Eri."

"Oh. Then yes. I can."

"Great. See you tomorrow."

"Okay. Goodbye."

"Bye."

The trio made their way to the front of the store to check out.

The parents in the toy section looked at the trio with nostalgia in their eyes. They remembered what it was like to have young children.

Jason and Rogue got to the check out.

"33,713.76 Yen." The cashier said after she scanned their purchases.

Jason took out a credit card and swiped it.

The cashier gave him the receipt.

Rogue and Jason grabbed the bags and went outside.

"Come on Eri." Jason said pulling his hoodie up and letting Rogue put Eri on Jason's back.

Jason pulled his hoodie down over Eri, and they headed back towards UA.


Mineta was walking around Musutafu when he was approached by a figure cloaked in shadows.

"Hey." The figure said.

"You lied to me!" Mineta yelled. "You told me that if I helped you guys that I would be put in with Anna, I could rescue her, and be seen as the hero, and she would do whatever I wanted, but she didn't! I got expelled because of you!"

"What if I said that you could still get the girl?"

Mineta began drooling. "Really? I can still get Anna?"

"Yeah. We are planning an assault. You will be able to get your hands on your girl."

"I'm in."

"Then let's go."

Mineta and the figure walked into the darkness of the alley disappearing into the shadows.


Inko picked up the phone and called Hisashi. What was she going to tell him? She covered her mouth with her hand and felt the tears start.

"Hello?" Hisashi said in a tired voice.

"Hisashi." Inko said, her voice breaking.

"What happened?" Hisashi asked, completely awake when he heard his wife crying. "What's wrong?"

"I just found out that Katsuki told Izuku to throw himself off Aldera Jr. High and pray for a Quirk in the next life when they were in eighth grade."

Hisashi was horrified. Katsuki? Izuku's best friend? Had told him to kill himself. "What?" He asked, horrified. "Izuku tried killing himself?"

"Yes1" Inko sobbed. "Our baby..." She took in a deep shuddering breath to try getting her tears under control, but it didn't help. "Our baby tried killing himself."

Hisashi was horrified. He knew that Izuku's Quirk came in late because his body wasn't ready to handle it's power, but the bullying had gotten so bad that he thought the only way out was to kill himself. It broke his heart and made him so made. If it wasn't for the fact that Masaru and Mitsuki would deal with Katsuki then He ould have paid the boy a visit during his next trip. "Inko. Do I need to come home?" That may have been sooner rather than later.

"No, no. Just stay where you are. Mitsuki will take care of it."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Are you going to sue Aldera? You'd win."

"I think so. If it happened to Izuku, then who knows who else it's happened to or happening to?"

"Aldera will be scrap by the time you're finished with them."

"I should let you get back to bed." Inko said. 

"Actually, I need to get up anyways. Got to get ready for work."

"Oh. That reminds me. Are you still working for Willis Todd?"

"Yeah? Why?"

"He put out a kill order on Jason and Sheila."

"HE WHAT!"

Inko started crying again. "Sheila's dead Hisashi!" She sobbed into the phone.

"NO! Not Sheila! How's Jason!?!"

Inko nodded and wiped her eyes. "Sheila wasn't killed by Willis or anyone. She died because of a man hunting a poor little girl. He touched her, and she was killed."

Hisashi closed his eyes and covered his eyes. He prayed to Kami for the man's arrest or painful death. "How's Jason doing?"

"Not well. He's trying to be brave, but you can tell that he's not handling it well. He doesn't know how to process things, and according to Izuku one of his classmates put flowers on his desk the other day."

Hisashi clenched his hand into a fist. "Hold on Inko. I need to take care of something." He walked over to the window of his apartment and opened it before blasting a gout of flame into the air with a shout of rage. Why did it seem like Jason was getting the sort end of the stick all of the sudden?

Inko heard Hisashi yelling over the line, which meant he was probably using his Quirk to blow off some steam.

"I'm back." Hisashi said in a raspy voice. "I'm sorry to hear that. Jason is a good kid. He didn't deserve that."

"No, no he didn't."

"Are you sure that you don't want me to take time off?" Hisashi asked.

"No, no. Were fine. Just come back whenever you have vacation next." 

That most likely meant the last two weeks of the year.

"Okay."

"We might have custody of Jason." Inko said. "It was in Sheila's will."

"Okay." Hisashi said. What else could he say to that?

"I better let you go. I don't want to make you late for work."

"Okay. I'll talk to you later."

"Goodbye."

"Bye." Hisashi dressed for the Gym. He was going to put in his two weeks. He'd go back to Japan, get another job there so he could be closer to his family, especially if they were going to be taking care of Jason. It would be good for him to have support. He also refused to work for a man who had a kill order put out on his own son. He just wished that he could end Willis Todd's existance, but for a businessman he had more bodyguards that a normal businessman should have. 

As hisashi walked out the door he didn't notice the Hero's silhouette in the background. So stuck in his thoughts was he that he missed the signal in the sky shining against the grey clouds.
