A Deadly Secret (Izuku Midoriya x Reader)

Chapter 94: His Start (Season 4, Episode 25)

I rushed down to the lower levels of the large building, collecting any stragglers that I found. Luckily, no one was severely injured.

    All of a sudden, the building began to shake. No... don't tell me the building's about to collapse! Just as I was about to make a cut on my fingertips, a red feather hooked itself into the back of my coat. It happened for the others too. Thanks, Hawks.

    The feather brought me back to the winged hero. "Hecate! Change of plans. You need to shoot that Nomu!"

    "Got it!"

    I saw a glimpse of the black Nomu, as it spit out smaller ones. That is disgusting! I can't waste any more time; it's just trying to distract us while it regenerates. Making a gash on my arm, my Hecate formed from the blood on my elbow. These things aren't technically alive, so I wouldn't get in too much trouble for obliterating them.

    Pricking my finger, I allowed the blood to drip into the opening that formed on my hand. The liquid twisted, forming a round that closely resembled a 9mm bullet. It's not as big as the one I shot in Kamino, so I shouldn't break any bones.

The virtual sights on my goggles focused on the first Nomu, causing me to fire once it locked on. Its head exploded once the bullet made contact. It's just like a zombie apocalypse game. These mindless creatures aren't even smart enough to avoid the small projectiles that I'm creating. I repeated the same process, taking out the next two grey ones.

***

    Damnit! They may have been weak, but it still wasted my time. I looked over my shoulder to see that Endeavor was clearly exhausted, as he sweat profusely while fighting the black Nomu.

    The number one hero glowed, as he surrounded himself with fire. "Prominence Burn!" The heat was intense, as he focused it onto his enemy.

    Did he do it? Looking around, I noticed a floating head. That thing cut off its head at the last second?!  Using my Blood Geyser, I propelled myself to land on one of the higher buildings. There's probably going to be some kind of media here soon, so I better be careful about using my Blood Manipulation.

    "Watch out!" I heard Hawks yell.

    The head sprouted its arms back, piercing Endeavor in multiple locations and hurdling him into a heap of smoke. This is bad.

Reloading my arm gun with my blood, I aimed where the atlas and axis bones should be. It was now standing over a bloodied Endeavor, who seemed to be knocked out. Pulling the imaginary trigger, the needle bullet was lodged into the being's neck.

    The Nomu froze its regeneration for a split second, before turning its head to me. Within a split second, it grew its full body back. "Are you a strong opponent?"

    So, I wasn't schizing out earlier. It did talk.

    The corner of my lip turned up into a smirk. My death would be insignificant. Although I don't really like Endeavor, he has the strength that Japan needs. If dying means buying him time, I'll do it. "Why don't you come find out for yourself?"

    "DIE!" The Nomu punched me in the gut, causing me to cough up blood.

    "Wrong move." I grunted, as I held the nozzle of my gun to his lower body, shooting a blood bullet directly into its spinal cord.

Its body was ripped in half. That's when I felt the atmosphere become warmer. Took him long enough. Endeavor punched the Nomu again with a fist full of fire, while grabbing the back of my vest with the other. Together, the two of us were sent back, slamming into a part of a collapsed building.

"You are not good enough!" The Nomu shouted.

"I have an idea." Though I was out of breath and starting to get dizzy, I still had an ample amount of blood left.

"To think that I need the help of some child," the number one hero growled. "Go on."

I gave him a short explanation of what I did in Kamino, saying that it might be our only chance to take this thing down quickly. Blood needles will not cut it this time. I have to somehow immobilize him, even if it's just for a few seconds, so Endeavor can incinerate the body.

    With a nod of the hero's head, I vanished, so I could find a better spot.

More blood dripped into the hole on my hand, forming the bullet. It's going to take some time to make a larger bullet, but I don't think I have any other choice. I'm gonna have to replicate what I did at Kamino.

I watched as Endeavor utilized the rest of his flames, plus some of Hawks' feathers, to catch up with the villain, remembering what he told me.

-A Few Minutes Ago-

    "I'll release the rest of the flames that I have on this beast," Endeavor claimed.

    "How will I know when you're about to do that?" I questioned.

    "Shoot him when I'm about to punch him into the sky."

-End Flashback-

    That's smart of him. By burning him in the sky, he won't cause as much collateral damage. He was fast, just like Izuku, but I was able to keep up with him with my eyes.

Just as he was about to land the punch, I fired my Hecate directly at the sky. As usual, it landed in the spot that I had shot earlier, just before the flames of the number one hero ensnared its body. The two ascended into the atmosphere of the earth, before creating a massive explosion.

    Exhausted from the blood that I had lost, I dropped to my knees on the pavement. It was hard to see through the smoke, but I did notice a skeleton disintegrate as it fell to the ground. Beside it was Endeavor, who held his fist up, announcing his victory.

    I am so going to hear it from Mr. Aizawa later.
