Suicidal idealization near the end.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the time Izuku got all of the assignments out of the way it was already past sun down, he was tired and still had a patrol to go on. He yawned, remembering last night had been on of the only times he had gotten a good night sleep since his fight with Yoichi. Thankfully even though he had refused to eat for a week, he still was able to keep a decent amount of food down without getting sick.

Hikage informed him that his Super Regeneration was working again, keeping One For All from killing him. He had to admit that it had been stupid to stop eating, but he just didn't have an appetite until this morning.

He stretched a little, making his way to the meeting area to see Mirai. As he arrived he noted two other people, the Hero Manual and Iida. What were they doing here, was this going to be a joint patrol? He walked up to them smiling in a friendly manner, only to pause at the look in Iida's eyes.

He knew what the thirst for revenge looked like, he had felt it himself and seen it on many others he had worked with or against. Katsumi had been one of them, they had thrown attacks at him only a couple years after Yoichi's death. Clearly not caring for their own life, even Sokka had been smarter then that.

"Hello Iida, how are your internships going?" Izuku asked casually, making sure not to let on how he felt about the darkness in the teens eyes.

Iida just huffed uncharacteristically, before turning their head and staring off into the air. He hoped the blue haired teen wouldn't do something stupid, he truly hoped they wouldn't, but he knew it there was a high chance they would.

"I am sorry about them, they have been like this since I met them." Manual admitted with a wince." I don't know why, they seemed to be in great spirit for the Sports Festival."

Mirai nodded at the explanation of Iida's behaviour, before pushing his glasses up further and turning to Izuku.

"You ready for Patrol?" Mirai asked and Izuku nodded, he was as ready as he could be feeling as tired as he did right now." Great, then we should start, stick close by and don't go looking for trouble...got it?"

"Of course, sir." Izuku replied, before the four set off.

Nothing happened for a while, until a loud clang sounded from a nearby alley way. Izuku froze and paled as Danger Sense went off, something was down that alley way and from the feel of it...it was extremely dangerous. However the scream that followed after cemented his decision, he could just leave whoever it was that screamed.

He turned and ran, ignoring the protests of Manual and Mirai.

Iida also ran towards the sound, speeding past Izuku and into the alley way within a flash of blue light. By the time he made his way to the scene, Izuku paled drastically. Standing there over a heavily injured Hero, Native to be specific, was the Hero Killer Stain. Izuku took a step back and prepared to run if necessary, but stopped when he noticed Iida struggling on the ground seemingly paralyzed.

"Well, well, well...what to we have here, a Hero brat." Stain muttered, the look in their eyes clearly showing how unstable they were." Ingenium's brother if I'm not mistaken, your brother was a fake Hero....considering the look of revenge in your eyes, you are also going to turn out that way. Pity."

Izuku didn't even think, he just leapt forwards and placed himself between Iida and Native...and Stain. He glared at the sword wielding man, daring them to try and get him out of the way. Smokescreen wouldn't be useful in this situation and Danger Sense was only useful to an extent, Stain was faster then his reaction time and that meant even if the passive Quirk warned him...he might not get out of the way fast enough.
