The Hero's Fall

One Down...Many More to Go

Only a week had gone by since Stain became an official member of the team. Luna was now a member of the family, our research on Endeavor was complete, and tomorrow night was going to be the night that Endeavor finally fell. The tech team had been working tirelessly looking for any spec of dirt they could find on the bastard of a "Hero" and it had paid off. We were ready to take the Hero world by storm. But tonight was going to be focused on taking down his reputation. Every shred of evidence against him was going to be released to all of Japan. 

Mei had set up the camera again and created a system that would broadcast the message to every TV, computer, phone, and tablet across the nation while bouncing the IP address around multiple different servers to stop anyone from trying to trace the video back to us. The show would start at 7:00 p.m. sharp. Right now it is 6 o'clock and we are in the middle of trying to figure out who would be the one to give the message to the people.  

Pirate, who stood off to the side watching while we discussed, spoke up and walked to the center of the group. "Why don't we let Hell-Frost do the broadcast. He and his family were the most hurt by Endeavors actions."

Most of us face palmed at the realization and we readily agree to let Shoto take this one. After all, we would get plenty more opportunities to be the star of the show. Now that it's settled, Shoto leaves to get ready for the show. After the first two broadcasts we had set up when we started on this journey, we hadn't had to use our personas much so he needed time to prepare. 

While Shoto went to prepare himself, Banshee had taken a team to go capture the target. We had come to the realization that the Heroes would try to protect him as soon as the broadcast revealed who we would be going after first. So to stop this from hindering our plans he would need to be brought in before the show. Ten minutes before the show was set to start the team returned with the unconscious Hero in tow. 

"Alright people, it's time. Hell-Frost take your place and the rest of you get out of the way," came the voice of Hacker. We all complied with her wishes and took seats in front of the screens so we would see what the rest of Japan would see. She counted down from three with her hand and pointed at Hell-Frost to show that he was now live. 

"Hello again people of Japan. It has been a while since you've seen or heard from the Assassination Association but we have been very busy these past few weeks. We promised to destroy every fake Hero who does not change their ways. And I am here today to start the completion of that promise. This Hero will not be given a chance to change as his crimes were too severe. What we will be showing you today is a complete list of his crimes against the good people of Japan. Enjoy the show."

With his speech given the screen filled with videos of fights Endeavor had been a part of. We made sure to edit these videos so they properly showed the severity of the damage he caused, not only to villains but also buildings and innocent civilians that just happened to be in his way. We also included reports of the things he did to his family as well as a recording from Shoto himself saying what Endeavor had done. It detailed how he drove his wife into insanity and how he forced his eldest son to 'train' until it literally killed him. As well as the training he had forced Shoto into and the complete abandonment of his other two children. All because they didn't have quirks that he deemed useful. 

At the end of it most of us had tears in our eyes while Hell-Frost was being comforted so he could pull himself together enough to go back in front of the camera. He managed to do it and took his place in front of the camera once more. 

"As you have seen this is not a Hero who deserves redemption. This as a monster who deserves to rot in the deepest pits of Hell. There is no use in trying to protect him. We already have him in our custody. He will be dealt with on our terms as we do not trust you Heroes to properly deal with him. Now as that is all we have for you today, we will let you resume your regular evening activities. Enjoy the rest of your day and we will be seeing each other again very soon."
