The Wolf and The Rabbit

Heroism

3rd person POV:

AFO smiled while looking at his nemesis in his weakened state. "My how the mighty fall, All Might. Hollowed cheeks and sunken back eyes. That is what your symbol is. All those years of confidence and greatness the people knew of you, all boiled down to this. It's truly sad and pathetic." AFO laughs at this with All Might struggling to stand.

"It doesn't matter if I'm frail or not. No matter what, I'll still stand tall as any hero should in my position. No matter what you do, you can't knock me down. That is what it means to hold the symbol I carry."

"Perhaps I can't so easily, but I have something worthwhile for you to hear." All Might listened closely to AFO with him explaining something. "You're probably aware that you cannot find anything on my successor, Tomura Shigaraki. But you probably aren't aware that the child...is none other than Nana Shimura's grandson."

Hearing these words, All Might was shocked above anything. "You...You lie!"

"You know that this is something I would do? So easy to break heroes now. When your master was around, they weren't as easy to break mentally. Now, your kind can't even lift a finger without your help. It's almost hilarious actually. All I'd have to do in order to break this society is take you out of the equation with this bit of information being a killing factor." The villain pushed his cheeks up in an arrogant tone while continuing. "Where is that smile now, All Might? Are you sad knowing your master's grandson is now a monster? It's honestly to the point I'd laugh at the image you're giving me if it wasn't so pathetic."

"HEY! LEAVE THE GUY ALONE! WHAT MAKES YOU KNOW ANYTHING, VADER KNOCKOFF!?"

"And the mindless muscle woman speaks. Tell me something. If All Might wasn't part of the top pros, do you honestly think the country would be able to sustain itself? Villains are all waiting so patiently for his end and ready to come aid me at the drop of a hat once I succeed, yet only a handful can even do the same for him. Face it, the gap between the number 1 pro and number 2 is just too vast. Endeavor may be a great hero, but he's no All Might at all. The same can be said about you. Your generation had lived it's life peacefully without a care in the world. Strong men come from strife as the old proverb says. Your generation lacks this as it was spoonfed by the fool beside you. Now look at him? He can hardly stand on his own two feet, what hope do you have? If you even had half the strength he did, you'd at least stand a match against me. Face it. Your generation of pro heroes is a set of failures after failures."

Miruko gripped her fist while gritting her teeth before calming down. "You know what, you're right. My generation screwed up. we let All Might keep the burden he had without doing anything to help lighten that load. This made us lazy and sloppy. Well, I'm going to make it right now by taking you down and helping raise up the symbol for the next generation."

"Your 'symbol' is nothing more than a pathetic child who can't even defend himself. And yet for some reason both you and that blond oaf honestly believe he's your saving grace." AFO kept laughing at Izuku before pointing out his logic. "If he really was this 'great hero', then why isn't he here right now?"

"He might not be much today, but in the future when those heroes you see now that are the top have to leave active duty like all do at some point, he'll be there to be the hero we need and no matter how much you try to push that belief away." Miruko went down in a sprinting position before smirking. "But until that day comes, I gotta make sure he's able to grow up and get an ass kicking for doing something so stubborn and fighting someone I told him not to." She charged at AFO with him holding his hand out preparing to attack.

"How pathetic. Heroes like you are nothing but a waste of space." He sent a blast of air pressure for Miruko to dodge it. The villain sent a few more blasts for Miruko to constantly dodge and evade them. 'I see she's found the trajectory my attacks and can avoid them. No matter.' Miruko came right at AFO to give a roundhouse and just narrowly miss his head. In response, the villain sent out tendrils from his fingers to force the rabbit hero to jump up in the air. "Now you can't move."
