There's a knock on the door.
Izuku: huh? He's here? *opens the door and steps back*
Eraserhead: *walks in,closing the door behind him*
Izuku: So you're the hero killer,Eraserhead? Your quirk is erasure,right? You turn off quirks when you look at someone and activate your quirk?
Eraserhead: how the hell do you know that?
Izuku: I do a lot of research,Shota Aizawa.
Eraserhead: *grips a sword tight*
Izuku: All quirks are registered,all I needed was Hawks to describe it to me and I could find your identity.
Eraserhead: *takes a step back* Impressive..but what's your goal?
Izuku: I want to kill All for One.
Eraserhead: Why?
Izuku: Because he's selfish. He keeps quirks to himself and let's people suffer. He pisses me off!
Eraserhead: that's a childish reason. The government is the one regulating him and he's perfect representation of less conventional quirks,he's good for my kind of quirks.
Izuku: What?! You wanna say that again?!
Eraserhead: Besides you clearly have a powerful quirk so what are you complaining about?
Izuku: This power isn't my own,I'm merely borrowing it to kill All for One?
Eraserhead: Are you delusional? That's impossible!
Izuku: *starts using five percentage,which he learned how to do* HAWKS!
Eraserhead: *uses his quirk and pulls out a pair of nunchucks*
Hawks: I can't move my feathers! He's using his quirk! *flies at Aizawa*
Eraserhead: *easily uses nunchucks to throw Hawks down*
Izuku: *punches Aizawa with a 5% punch* Get out of my sight!
Eraserhead: Fine. You freak. *jumps back*
—————————————————————————
Tomura: Bye,Dad!
All for One: Bye,Tomura! Have fun.
*Tomura heads out and meets up with Compress,heading to Oji's house*
Oji: Hello,Gentleman!
Mr.Compress: Hey,gramps.
Tomura: Hello,Mr.Harima! It's great to meet you.
Oji: It's a pleasure to meet you as well,Mr.Shigaraki.
Tomura: I'm glad it is!
Oji: Ha,well I hope to help you! Now,you have a touch-based quirk,correct?
Tomura: yes.
Oji: I do as well,so does my grandson. Now these quirks typically have no drawbacks on the body but there is a trade off.
Tomura: We have to touch what we effect?
Oji: Yes,that's it. We have no range.
Mr.Compress: I assume you're going to teach us ways around it?
Oji: Yes. There are a few ways around it,speed,agility or creativity. We will try them all but for today,I want you both to try to get me.
The two jump straight at him,immediately.
Oji: *taps his hand and shrinks down,making them miss him. Then regrows* Oh,come on,do better than that.
The two keep jumping at Oji but he just keeps avoiding it.
Mr.Compress: *jumps forward*
Tomura: *jumps forward*
Oji: *throws out his hands,hitting their palms,and shrinks them* Ok,you lose. *unshrinks them*
Tomura: that was a weird experience
Mr.Compress: I see why you're the great capturer.
Oji: Yes but my power has a weakness,people can still use their quirks and they can move. Had he wanted to,Tomura could have decayed me. That's where your quirk surpasses mine,you render a target immobile,your marbles are also harder to crush which was something I always had to look out for,not accidentally crushing someone. That's why you are my successor!
Mr.Compress: I'm honoured,grandfather.
Oji: I'm very glad. Now,you two,we're going to try this again.
The two: right!
They both hide and mutter together.
Oji: I won't let you strategise! *shrinks the sofa they're hiding under*
Suddenly,marbles,marbles everywhere!
They release a bunch of handfuls of dust and Compress and Tomura jump at him from the sides.
Oji: *dodges and hits them both on the backs,pushing them into the floor* Good try. That shows promise. Now,let's have dinner and I'll explain the plan moving forward.
During dinner,Oji explains how he plans to improve them,by having them practice speed and agility.
Over the course of the internship,the two train speed,precision and agility as well as strategy
——————————————————————————————————————————————————-
Cider House: Hotta,why did you want to work with me?
Hotta: Oh,I just thought your quirk had disadvantages that I could relate too and you could help me get around them.
Cider House: Ah,I see,I'm glad and I hope you're happy with what you've learned.
Hotta: I am!
Suddenly,an explosion is heard in the distance and they see some smoke
Cider House: WHAT'S GOING ON?! *runs in that direction*
Hotta: *sneaks off to look for Stain*
——————————————————————————————————————————————————-
A few weeks later:
The 3 are riding on a train to try safe practical training.
Suddenly,an explosion can be heard in the distance and the train comes to a sudden stop.
Oji: Huh?
Tomura: Somethings happening!
Compress: What the-?!
Oji: Villains! Follow me!
Mr.Compress: What?!
Oji: You wanna be heroes,right? THEN FOLLOW ME! *jumps forward,into battle*
Compress: RIGHT! *follows him*
Tomura: Yes,sir! *follows Oji*
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Gigantomachia: Ok,kids,look out for the hero killer,he always kills 4 people before leaving an area.
Dabi: Right! Criminals have patterns
Geten: mhm,just need to catch those patterns!
Gigantomachia: *notices smoke* villains...*runs forward and leaps up,hitting a robot into the ground with full strength and punches it a few times with both hands,breaking the robot apart* There we go,destroyed. Now,let's get to the smoke *runs forward*
Geten and Dabi: *starts following*
Dabi: *gets a notification and looks at it,seeing a location prompt from Tomura* Geten..I think Shigaraki's in trouble. DAD,GET WHATEVER HEROES ARE AVAILABLE,WE THINK OUR FRIEND'S IN TROUBLE *starts running*
Geten: Wasn't he with Compress? Maybe I'll go look for Compress first *follows Dabi*
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Eraserhead: *holding Kashiko Kashi to a wall by the neck with his nunchucks* Think you're a smart guy,huh? No,you're just lucky enough to have a quirk people admire!
Hotta: *fully transformed,leaps forward and kicks him across the alleyway*
Eraserhead: *flies back,landing on the front of his feet and palm of his hand,readjusting his goggles so Hotta can't tell if his quirk is activated or not and activates his quirk*
Hotta: AH- *untransforms*
Eraserhead: *takes those few seconds to get out of his sight*
Hotta: huh?
Eraserhead: *throws 4 throwing stars at him,pinning him to the wall*
Hotta: AH
Eraserhead: *blinks and jumps forward,putting a throwing star to his throat* You're a violent,good for nothing,piece of filth. Thinking your quirk makes you a hero. No ideals,no plan,pathetic.
Hotta: You broke my brother's legs! You're evil incarnate! Killing left and right,choosing what's wrong and not! *transforms and throws Aizawa back,into a wall* I'll defeat you,hero killer!
Eraserhead: hehe..*activates quirk and charges forward*
Hotta: *untransforms and tries jumping to the side*
Eraserhead: *wraps the nunchucks around his neck and ties him to a fire escape staircase with 5 pieces of rope (both wrists,both ankles and the neck),then puts his nunchucks back in their holder and throws all of his spikes under him* No way out. *blinks,his hair falling down*
Hotta: *transforms but can't escape,as the ropes are too strong*
Eraserhead: *puts a throwing star to his neck*
Shigaraki: *jumps forward and reaches towards Aizawa*
Eraserhead: Huh? *looks to the side,activating his quirk*
Shigaraki: *grabs Aizawa* MY QUIRK?!
Eraserhead: *throws Shigaraki off him* Huh..
Shigaraki: *lands on his feet and quickly gets in a fighting stance*
Eraserhead: *turns to Shigaraki and brings out 5 more throwing stars (making 6 total)*
Shigaraki: *quickly jumps back,grabbing the 4 throwing stars from before,sticking 3 to his clothes*
Eraserhead: *blinks*
Shigaraki: *decays the one he's holding* Right! My quirk's back! *hits the ground and decays it,letting the dust cover him and starts running,carefully using the dust to stay hidden*
Eraserhead: *pockets the stars and gets out his nunchucks,jumping into the dust,his goggles protecting his eyes*
Shigaraki: *jumps out the dust cloud and decays the rope around Hotta's throat*
Eraserhead: *jumps out the dust cloud and wraps the nunchucks around Shigaraki's neck,pulling him to the floor. Then activates his quirk*
Shigaraki: *grabs the nunchucks but it does nothing*
Eraserhead: *uses throwing stars to pin Shigaraki to the fire escape (by putting them through his clothes and sticking the points into the metal,one at each arm,one at each leg,one in the nether regions area and one in his hair)* I respect you and how you're a hero with a quirk like that,and your father,which is why I haven't cut you but I can't have you getting in the way,this will be enough to stop you stopping me. If you get in my way again,I might be forced to scar you so give up *walks over to Hotta* out of Spikes..out of throwing stars..guess I'll snap his neck *readies his nunchucks*
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Many heroes trying and failing to attack a robot or evacuating citizens.
Cider house: *trying to shoot his carbonated water at the robot but it doesn't get through the protection*
Gigantomachia: FOR ALL FOR ONE! *tries smashing the robot into the floor*
The robot dodges and continues to dodge Gigantomachia as he keeps trying to break the robot.
Suddenly,a tiny spec flies across Gigantomachia's vision
Gigantomachia: huh?
Oji: *regrows,grabbing the robot by surprise and shrinking it,trying to crush it in his hand but it won't break*
Gigantomachia: Allow me *grabs it and crushes it* It's nice to be working with you again,Harima!
Oji: Same here,Gigantomachia!
Suddenly,a flying robot soars past.
Oji: *shrinks*
Gigantomachia: *carefully grabs him* CIDER HOUSE,PROPEL ME! *runs after it*
Cider house: *uses his water to propel Gigantomachia as best he can,even as it ruins the carbonation*
Gigantomachia: *uses that and his extreme strength to get a good momentum,running up a wall and throws Oji*
Oji: *regrows and throws out his hands*
Flying robot: *expecting that,dodges his hand and throws him back at the ground by kicking him with a leg*
Gigantomachia: *catches him*
Oji: Ugh..
———————————————————————————————————————————————
Shigaraki: *stuck,spread Eagle,to the fire escape,trying to grab something but can't*
Eraserhead: That boy,the Shigaraki kid! Is a true hero! Rushes into battle to protect people,has plans and his quirk wouldn't be admired but he was able to prove he can work hard and find ways around it! He and All for One are true heroes! *wraps the nunchucks over Hotta's head and tightens his muscles,about to pull and kill him* Die,you privileged brat!
Suddenly,a burst of bright blue flames fill the area!
Dabi: *runs in* Are you all ok?!
Shigaraki: yeah! We are now. *finally pulls his arms forward and decays the two throwing stars on his legs,the one in his hair and the one lower down* Ok,that guy's not stopping our quirks right now,the media said the hero killer would have a paralysis quirk or something similar *picks up the ninja stars he threw off his arms* but he actually stops quirks so be careful and keep a flame going so you know,I'll decay his ninja stars. *sticks the two ninja stars to his clothes,alongside the other 3*
Eraserhead: Ahhhh..
Dabi: HUH?! *sparks a flame,revealing an Aizawa finishing applying eye drops*
Eraserhead: *pulls the goggles over his eyes and activates his quirk,putting the eye drops back in his pocket*
Dabi: *about to throw fire but his flames vanish*
Eraserhead: *jumps forward,starting to spin his nunchucks*
Geten: ENOUGH! *sends ice at Aizawa*
Eraserhead: AH *jumps up,dodging the ice,blinking and deactivating his quirk*
Tomura: Geten,when did you get here?!
Geten: Well,after Dabi saw you sent your location to us,I decided to grab your friend but it took me a second to find you.
Mr.Compress: Good thing it did,from the looks of it.
Eraserhead: *activates his quirk and jumps down at the group*
Tomura (pulling out a throwing star to tell when Aizawa's quirk stops),Geten and Compress all jump at him,sending their fists,feet and even teeth at him
Eraserhead: *fighting them off with kicks or wacks of nunchucks*
Dabi: *runs over to Hotta* let me get you down.
Hotta: no! You can't,get Shigaraki to decay the spikes first!
Dabi: right. *runs into the battle,punching Aizawa*
Eraserhead: SHIT! *blinks,his quirk deactivating*
Dabi: Shigaraki,you need to decay the spikes *throws a flame at Aizawa*
Eraserhead: *jumps out of the way*
Tomura: right! *the throwing star falls to dust in his hand and he runs over to Hotta*
Geten: *sends ice at Aizawa*
Eraserhead: *activates his quirk and Geten's ice stops mid movement and falls down*
Tomura: My quirk won't work now..guess I'll remove them one by one *picks up a spike and it falls to dust and his eyes widen* His quirk must not reach this far.
Tomura keeps grabbing spikes until only 2 are left
Eraserhead: MY SPIKES? *looks at Tomura as he jumps backwards*
Tomura: *grabs a spike and it doesn't decay and he looks behind him,worried* He's further away? His quirk must only be able to effect so many people at a time..
Dabi: *throws fire at Aizawa*
The fire blocks Aizawa's vision. Compress compresses a metal bar and Geten starts moving some ice.
Tomura: *the spike in his hand turns to dust* Huh..he's not effecting anyone.
Eraserhead: *quirk deactivated,starts attacking them*
Tomura: *picks up the last spike and decays it then stands up and decays the 4 remaining pieces of rope off of Hotta*
Hotta: *transforms and lands on his feet before hitting the floor*
Tomura: hmm,eyedrops,goggles,not an area effect..
Eraserhead: *jumps high up and drops in some eye drops,pulling his goggles down and putting away the eye drops,all in one swift movement as he lands*
Compress: *throws a bunch of marbles at him and releases all the clones he'd kept from the sports festival*
Eraserhead beats up all the clones and the clones sometimes use quirks or get stopped half way using them but he quickly uses his nunchucks to kill the clones. Because some clones are Twice clones,more keep being created and it makes the battle take longer,forcing him to deactivate his quirk three times before killing the last clone.
Dabi: *has a small flame ignited*
Geten: *moving some ice*
Tomura: *has decayed all 4 remaining throwing stars (leaving him with 0)* I worked it out! The ones that get stopped using their quirks are the ones the direction he's facing,based on the fact the goggles hide his eyes and he uses eye drops and the inconsistent effects,I think it's a sight based quirk. Whatever he looks at can't use its quirk but he can't use it forever,as it hurts his eyes,which is why he uses the eyedrops. It's also why we weren't effected this whole time,he was focused on the clones. Also..his hair..it falls whenever he deactivates his quirk,that's when everyone could use their quirks. He also has shorter time every time the hair falls. In short,watch the hair,get ready to attack when it falls and stay far away,we won't know who he's looking at if we're too close together.
Eraserhead: Clever boy. *spins his nunchucks* but you should have used this time to get that hero to safely,he's clearly too bruised to do it himself. To late now! *jumps at them*
The team split up,making sure they're far apart and always using their quirks when they know they can,however Aizawa still catches them off guard as they aren't always sure where he's looking,punches,bites,kicks,jumps and wacks from nunchucks are the main sound as Aizawa continues to outpace the students,due to his element of surprise.
Compress: *throws two marbles and uncompresses the metal poles*
Eraserhead: *dodges the two and blinks midair,his quirk deactivating*
All attacks are thrown at once.
Compress: *jumps up the fire escapes and keeps reaching for him as he jumps side to side.
Dabi: *shoots a ton of fire*
Geten: *raises a bunch of ice and brings it down as a spike to hit Aizawa*
Eraserhead: *dodges it all*
Hotta: *leaps at him*
Eraserhead: *grabs Hotta's arms and then jumps above him,breaking his arms and kicks him to the floor,putting Hotta's neck under his foot*
Tomura: *jumps at him,going for the goggles*
Eraserhead: *turns around and punches him in the gut,throwing him down,and then stomps on one elbow,breaking it with a loud SNAP! *then grabs Compress around the neck,grabbing Tomura's hand and putting it near Compress* Try anything and I'll kill them both,got it?
Dabi: Ah!
Geten: ..
As the tension is rising,pan down to the sewers Geten's ice spike pierced and see it start to freeze
Geten: ..What's this feeling..it feels... *watching the ice in the sewers start to wiggle* it feels..it feels like..my power is growing..
Suddenly,the alleyway bursts apart,throwing everyone away from each other and surrounding Aizawa in ice.
Eraserhead: damn it!
Tomura: *stands up* I didn't know you could do that..
Geten: Me neither! I've heard of these..they're called quirk evolutions and it's like your quirk gains a new aspect,I must be able to control the temperature of my ice so if it's touching water..
Tomura: You can freeze it!
Hotta: Ow.. *there's 3 huge ice spikes in his hand,wrist and arm respectively*
Geten: Ah! Sorry!
Hotta: it's not your fault..that bastard tried to stab me in the heart with some rogue ice,I'm lucky to have blocked it.
Suddenly,a bunch of pro heroes and police arrive,getting Aizawa down and handcuffing him.
Gigantomachia: SONS! Are you okay?!
Dabi: Yeah..we're okay,sorry we ran off like that but we didn't have time to explain.
Suddenly,a flying robot soars past and grabs Tomura
Gigantomachia: AH,ALL FOR ONE'S KID!
Eraserhead: *activates his quirk*
Flying robot: *not effected*
Eraserhead: Ugh.. *runs forward,nunchucks in his mouth,and uses the nunchucks to tear the thing's head off*
Flying robot: *goes limp*
Tomura: *falls and is caught and put down by Gigantomachia*
Eraserhead: .... *standing there,before clasping in a heap*
——————————————————————————————————————
A news helicopter flies around and zooms in on a water tower
Izuku: *watching through binoculars* Ugh..that damn hero killer
Hawks: Well,you can't deny he's had an impact,in the areas he's been to. The heroes work harder,crime rate decreases,less Mutant hate if there was any and price of food falling.
Izuku: Price of food falling? So heroes are doing that? Guess the hero killer is a hero breeder,haha.Anyway,let's head home
Hawks: right *picks Izuku up with feathers and flies them both away*
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————
At the hospital:
Tomura,Geten,Dabi and Compress: *all of them sit up and stretch,refreshed*
Hotta: *looking at his hand which is in a cast*
Tomura: Hotta,how is it?
Hotta: Nerve and tissue damage,they said it shouldn't be anything major,once the bones heal that is.
Gigantomachia: ahem.
Everyone looks over as a policeman walks in.
Policeman: Hello. First,I wish to commend you on taking down the hero killer. It's impressive. Second,I'm afraid that means you used your quirks underage,which is illegal.
Dabi: Excuse me?! We saved at least a life each! We stopped a cereal murderer and you're treating us like criminals because we had to use parts of our being to do it?! You want to know what illegal looks like?! "Illegal" is leading an army to destroy society so only the power hungry rule! "Illegal" is beating,scarring,maiming and manipulating your kids to try and get someone who can rule the world with a fire covered fist! "Illegal" is kidnapping and raping,multiple times, a woman to create a perfect child and then killing her when she goes insane! *breathes heavily,a flame that appeared on his temple now disappearing*
Policeman: .. *looks away*
Geten: *hugs Dabi* I agree. What we did was something multiple heroes failed to do,leading to well over 20 deaths.
Gigantomachia: The policeman is just doing his job,kids,it's not his fault that's the law but technically what you did was vigilantism..now,usually,the police would allow you to pretend a hero took care of it but the burns and ice he was captured in make that hard,as no fire or ice heroes were there
All for One: *walks in* So I called in some favours,I can say the word and set it up as if there were ice and fire heroes there but do you want that? No recognition but no punishment,no criminal record.
Dabi: Yeah,whatever. *walks out*
Geten: Sure,sure *runs after Dabi*
Tomura: I'm good with it
Compress: Sure but I implore you to make it legal as soon as possible.
Hotta: I understand,do it.
All for One: Great,we're all in agreement *walks out*
Policeman: Sorry *walks out*
Gigantomachia: Stupid law,upsetting my sons,lack of people helping other people *walks out*
Oji: *regrows,suddenly on a windowsill,smiling* Despite what the law says,I think what you did was right. Great work!
Tomura,Hotta and Compress: Thank you!
