Life After Death

chapter 64

Now that Gigantomachia was out of the picture the biggest threat now became the prisoners who escaped every prison in Japan although when the war began their numbers were spread thin. The situation had become dire since many civilians could be caught in the crossfire.

When Ryukyu had finally arrived at the hospital he saw many wounded heroes so Izuku began treating anyone that he could. “Just what the hell happened to do all this?” “From what I heard, they encountered several Nomu that were almost if not just as strong as the one that attacked Endeavor some time back.” Izuku began restoring the pros that he could with Miruko taking most of his attention. He was able to restore and stop the bleeding from her injuries, but he unfortunately couldn’t do anything about the severed arm. “Nngh. Thanks kid. That quirk of yours really does come in handy.” She started to laugh a bit before feeling immense pain from the act. “Try not to speak. Save the energy I’m giving you to work on your injuries.” When he did what he could, he kept going down the line with the sound of clapping being heard. “Nicely done Deku. You got this far, but what about the prisons?” Looking up to the hospital’s entrance, he saw Bakugou with Endeavor being pulled by his neck in the ash blond’s hand. “I asked some people to go help. Unlike you, there’s still some in this world that give a damn if it goes up in flames.” “Adorable.”

Bakugou disappeared from Izuku’s line of sight to reemerge behind him. “But right now I’d give more of a shit about myself if I was you.” He kicked Izuku into the building to bring down the entire structure. “YOU BASTARD!” The healed pros and Ryukyu came at Bakugou for him to send a massive shockwave to knock them back. The dragon hero however got in front to take the blunt and was sent into the air and a distance. “That’ll send you where you should be fucking lizard bitch.” Izuku came charging at Bakugou again with his blades out to almost slice the ash blond’s head off. “Now this is what I like to see, nerd! That pussy face of yours when you finally lose your shit!”

With Ochako and Nejire

The duo had been working with the pros to try and escort the civilians out of the area before hearing the call about the prisons. “Nejire. We’re almost done here. Should we try and send some people that can fight or keep going as we are?” Seeing a few of the other groups of pros and pros in training sending some people that can fight and being told by Ryukyu that she’s in charge made Nejire question what they should do. ‘If we’re thinking this right, the bigger problem would be if any villains escape and cause harm to people. But right now, we need to make sure this area’s clear. If I was Ryukyu, what would I do?’ “LOOK OUT!” Her thoughts were stopped when she saw her mentor in her dragon form come flying and crash into a building. “This isn’t good.” Everyone saw Ryukyu and realized just how dangerous things were if she was knocked back as a five ton dragon. “Ryukyu!” Nejire went to her teacher before a black fire came and almost grazed her.

“Well this is like so cool. You all are here. That toats saves me the effort of finding you.” Camie came over with a smile as an illusion of a girl bleeding and crying was beside her. “Kokai.” Ryukyu spoke with her face pale seeing the girl she knew. “....You weren’t able to help me. Why did you become a hero when you couldn’t help one classmate of yours?” These words hit her hard realizing just how true they actually were. The illusion came at Ryukyu and seemed to be able to land a punch on her. Everyone that knew of Camie’s quirk couldn’t believe this as the illusions she’d make could only be made to be seen, not felt. “Well now that she’s outta the way, I think it’s time for a little fun of my own.” Camie started walking away with Ochako enraged. “YOU BITCH!” “Wait Ochako.” Nejire stopped her friend before she could run after the fawn haired villain. “We need to think smart instead of just running head first in.”

Now that Ryukyu was out of commission due to the powerful illusion cast by Camie she began to torch the city with black fire it was thanks to Nejire that Ochako didn't rush head first so they had to figure out how to take her down. When Nejire tried to seek any form of help from her mentor all she saw was a broken woman Who kept muttering "I'm sorry" over and over again. “Just what is she seeing to feel this much guilt?” “She’s seeing a mistake.” Camie walked over to Ryukyu as she fell on her hands and knees begging for forgiveness. “Seems the loser wasn’t the only quirkless she could’ve helped in her life. Back when Ryukyu was about the age you all found Izuku, she had a quirkless classmate. A diary of her’s was found and explained that she basically went through everything Izuku did. Though they were so similar, she didn’t choose to help her classmate when she needed it the most and watched her commit suicide.” “LIAR!” Nejire lost her temper hearing this about her teacher. “RYUKYU IS A GREAT HERO! SHE’D NEVER DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!” “Then why are my flames affecting her and making her beg for Kokai’s forgiveness?”
