The Alien Hero: Legion (MHA X Ben 10)

USJ Aftermath

All Might stands before Shigaraki and Kurogiri, steam emanating off of his body, dust swarming around his body. Rook, Bakugo, Shoto, Kirishima, and Melissa are in awe at his strength. Meanwhile, Shigaraki is seething, his body shaking in anger.

All Might: "I really have gotten weaker. Back in my hay-day, five hits would have been enough to knock him out." He presses his fist against his chest. "But today, it took more than three hundred might blows!"

As the steam comes off of All Might's body, Melissa and Shoto get nervous, but also ready to help along with Rook.

Melissa/Shoto/Rook: 'He's running out of time."

All Might: 'I'm running out of time. I need to end this quick.' He looks past the villains, spotting Gravattack holding down the AHN. 'It seems he has his monster handled. Just need to wait for backup.'

All Might twists his neck from one side to the other, cracking it both times. He then tightens his fists, standing proud before the villains.

All Might: "YOU'VE BEEN BESTED, VILLAINS! SURRENDER! WE ALL WANT TO GET THIS OVER WITH QUICKLY!"

Shigaraki continues to shake in anger, his hands twitching.

Shigaraki: 'No! He beat me! He's not any weaker at all!' He looks up at the hole in the roof. 'And look what he did to my Nomu! He cheated!'

Shigaraki begins to furiously scratch the side of his neck.

Shigaraki: "Oh, come on. What's going on here? He's just as strong as ever." He grumbles. 'Dammit. Don't tell me I was lied to.'

All Might: "WHAT'S WRONG?"

Shigaraki hesitates, the scratching of his neck being halted.

All Might: "NOT ATTACKING ME? DIDN'T YOU SAY YOU WERE GOING TO CLEAR THIS LEVEL EARIER?" He glares at Shigaraki. "WEL COME AND GET ME, IF YOU DARE!"

Shigaraki stumbles backwards, startled and unsure what to do.

Meanwhile, Rook, Bakugo, Kirishima, Shoto, and Melissa watch from the sidelines.

Bakugo: "Man, this is intense."

Kirishima: "Yeah. Looks like All Might doesn't need us after all."

Meanwhile, Rook, Shoto, and Melissa continue to worry about All Might.

Rook: 'The dust around All Might hides it well, but that steam.'

Shoto: 'It's the same steam that comes off of him when he's out of time.'

Melissa: 'He can't fight anymore. He's just bluffing.'

All Might stands completely still, completely focusing on keeping his form.

All Might: 'Crap. I can't fight them. That Nomu guy took too much out of me.' He looks over at Ben. 'And Ben is keeping the other one held down. He can't help me now, and I don't have much time left. I just have to stall until backup arrives.' He forces himself to take a step further. "WHAT? ARE YOU SCARED?"

Shigaraki and Kurogiri remain where they are standing, still hesitating to do anything. But Kurogiri's eyes squint, clearly noticing something.

All Might: 'They're hesitating, so maybe this will work. They're so close to surrendering, or at least running away.'

Shigaraki begins to scratch his neck on both sides, scratching furiously while seething with anger.

Shigaraki: "If only Nomu was here! He would rush you right now, pound you into the ground without giving it a second thought."
