MHA: Harbinger of Fear - Male Reader x Midnight

Part 19

The air had grown thick with tension and a nigh overwhelming presence as one man stared down the other. In addition to this, the air became hot like an oven door was open, blasting All Might in the face with dry and scorching heat.

"What did you have in mind?" All Might asked.

"Something gradual will do." Y/N replied, digging his boot into the dirt.

"Sounds good to me!"

A slight gust of wind passed over the two, momentarily pushing against their ears with a pinch of sand.

The rustling in distant trees ceased as a cloud cast a mass shadow over the land, while the dying of the light was a prelude to destruction.

The slightest bit of tension within All Might's leg signaled the fight, causing both men to burst off at blinding speeds.

With two loud battle cries, their fists collided. The resulting shockwave of their clash left a crater in the ground and a thunderous bang to echo over the arid landscape.

Running at triple-digit speeds, All Might reeled his fist back and threw it forward for a silent Detroit Smash.

Seeing a wave of overwhelming winds, Y/N's eyes flashed red a split second before impact, indicating that he had created and entered a pocket dimension.

With one-tenth of a second passing, he cut straight through the frozen world and reappeared unharmed.

His eyes widening in surprise, All Might raised an arm at the last second to feel Y/N's boot collide with his elbow.

The attack would have been devastating to anyone else, but the hero remained rooted in place with a slight sting spreading over his flesh.

Next, he ducked under a blazing fast punch. He used the opening to strike back with a hard uppercut to Y/N's exposed abdomen.

Being blown back by the painful attack, Y/N regained his bearings with a deep growl.

A small burst of energy emerged all around him as he forced himself into a stop. He then increased his energy and flew back into the fray.

All Might had little time to respond as their speed nearly doubled. This time, he felt wind rush past his face as Y/N's boot scraped the air between his eyelids.

Y/N had already begun to correct his mistakes. He followed the momentum of his attack, letting him reposition and lunge forward for another assault.

Their buildup was faster than most spars, but they still had much to show on either side.

All Might met him halfway. Their fists smashed into one another again but with an added explosion that rattled the area and burnt the ground where they met.

Still standing in the fiery inferno, All Might chuckled with cinders billowing around them.

Gritting his teeth in exertion, Y/N did his best to stand his ground as they challenged the other with knuckles laid flush.

One for All's reserves were massive. And All Might tapped into said power, causing Y/N's boots to pierce the ground and break the earth between them.

Taking a few rapid breaths, Y/N doubled down with his quirk as well.

The destructive energy within him sparked like a flow of electricity, causing a flash of light to travel down All Might's arm and emit a sharp pain down to the bone.

Recoiling with a pained grunt, All Might immediately caught an eyeful of Y/N's clenched fist.

Flying through the air from the surprise attack, Toshinori came to a skidding stop. He flipped and dug his hands into the ground, stopping his uncontrolled flight.
