I Am Here For You (IzuOcha)

Chapter 44: Protect Deku

"Stay back!" Momo yelled, firing off rounds of canons. Gas Lighter, standing at the end of the corridor, manipulated the gasoline at his disposal, redirecting the cannon fire away from him, the cannonballs flying into different parts of the walls. Lighter started slowly walking towards the room. Momo's eyes filled with fear before turning into anger and confidence. He hurt Shoto, and Midoriya.

"I won't let you into this room!" She yelled.

Inside Izuku's room, the inhabitants looked towards the door, hearing the commotion outside.

"He's here." Aizawa said, lowering his goggles onto his eyes. "Everyone stay in here. I'm going out there.

"I'm going with you." Mirio said, staring his first year teacher down. "I may not have my quirk but I can help."

"I am too," All might said, standing away from Izuku's bed.

"Neither of you will be going. Your frail and you're quirkless." Aizawa said. Another round of cannonballs could be heard from outside the room.

"Sorry Sensei. I don't think you're stopping us though. He hurt Midoriya..." Mirio said, staring him down. Aizawa stared at the two before sighing and started heading out the room.

Momo, who had been trying to defend against Lighters advances, was blasted with a large stream of gasoline, flying back to the end of the corridor, slamming against the wall at the end. The hall was now filled with gasoline.

Aizawa, Mirio and All Might ran out the room. Aizawa's eyes instantly turned red, any more gasoline manipulation was impossible. However Gas Lighter smiled. He aimed his arm down ready to snap his fingers.

"MIRIO! ALL MIGHT! MOVE!" Aizawa yelled, aiming his scarf towards Lighters arm, but it was too late. Lighter snapped.

The gasoline in the hallway lit, causing explosions to race down it. Aizawa and Mirio jumped back, though All Might was a bit too slow, catching full force of the explosions on the ground. The air wasn't safe either, the gasoline on the walls also lighting, blowing Mirio and Aizawa back.

Aizawa blinked from the light and the burning sensation of the explosions. Lighter took his chance, waterbending (in this case gasoline bending) a stream of gasoline right into Aizawa's face. Aizawa, who was still in the air from jumping, was forced to the ground from impact. Lighter lit the gasoline, causing multiple explosion's down the hallway right into Aizawa's face.

Mirio stood once again, charging at Lighter, dodging and weaving around the streams.

"You're a strong kid, but you're burned everywhere. Quirkless huh? Your blessed..." Lighter said, letting Mirio get close dodging a few punches from Mirio.

"If you weren't burned I'd be done for. Sorry about this." Lighter said, before punching Mirio in the stomach and then clocking him in the chin.

"I won't use my quirk on you. You're not as cursed. The only cursed thing about you is your hero mindset of yours." Lighter said, staring down at Mirio before walking towards Izuku's room once again.

After a few steps, Lighter felt a pull on his leg. He looked down to see a purple ball under his foot.

"S-Stay back!" A voice cried. Lighter looked around to see a little purple covered boy on the stairwell.

"M-Mineta... Did you stay here...?" Aizawa said weakly, still laying on the ground.

"It was scary out there!" Mineta yelled. "But now one of my friends is hurt!"

"You little grape, I'll skin you!" Lighter said, raising his hand. Suddenly he felt a sharp burning pain on his back, along with a blue light out the corner of his eye.
