Beyond Ultra (a MHA story)

Chapter 20

Horoki woke up and went downstairs for breakfast, he saw Kirishima open the cabinets and groan. "There's no more cereal! Who keeps finishing it and leaving the box there?!" He said shouting. Liam looked away and finished his cereal quickly. "Hey, Horoki, you're gonna need to do a grocery run." He said looking at Horoki. "You sure? Last time I did it, Todoroki and I got turned to babies." Horoki said. "That was a one time thing! Besides, you're not gonna let your guard down again right?" Kirishima said. "Yeah I guess you're right. Anything else we need?" Horoki said as he got his sweatshirt. "Milk and eggs. Also some rice and salt." Kirishima said as he looked through the pantry. "Toothpaste and some toiletries!" Iida said. Horoki put the list on his phone and went out.

The day was rather bright on Sunday, he went to the direction of the grocery store and thought about the letter he received. The Expo was held on a special island where the scientists and their support items were made. They were protected from outside forces, the security there was tighter than Taurus, a maximum security prison made to hold the strongest villains. The letter said that he was invited cause of the tournament he won and could bring guests. Horoki felt as if it was a waste a time and not worth going, suddenly he was approached by a delinquent who's face was covered. "Hey you're in my way." Horoki said. The stranger didn't look up and took out a switch blade and charged, Horoki swiftly dodged. "Hey! Back off!" Horoki shouted. The man tackled Horoki and tried to push the knife into his chest, Horoki then kicked the attacker off and gave a right hook, knocking the attacker out. He then kicked the knife away and called the police.

The man got taken away and the police question Horoki. They left him alone and Horoki went to get some groceries. He came back and dropped the groceries off, his head felt heavy as he walked upstairs. "You ok Horoki?" Midorya asked. "Yeah...! Just got a headache is all.." Horoki said as he went to his room. He then felt his head hurt, he laid on the bed and his breathing began to increase and he began to grip the sheets. He passed out and laid on the bed breathing hard, his eyes shot open and he started gasping for air. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the letter. Horoki heard a knock on the door and he answered it, it was Jiro. "You ok?" She asked, looking up and down at him. "Yeah, just had a headache is all." Horoki said. "Have you thought about the Expo trip?" She asked. "Yeah, I might not go." Horoki said. "Would it change your answer if I said that I'm going with Momo and Uraraka?" She asked with a smile. "You could've just said you were going and I would've said yes!" Horoki said smiling. "Well get your bags then! I'll see you at the Expo tomorrow!" She said as she left.

Horoki got his super suit, and formal wear. The letter also said he could bring guests so he took Bakugo, Kirishima and Liam. The four got on a plane and were rather excited, Horoki simply slept through while Liam watched movies. Kirishima tried to get Bakugo to get excited but failed, causing a scene on the airplane. When they landed, they were thoroughly searched they saw the entrance of the Expo and were just stunned. "Holy cow..." Liam said in amazement. "This is so awesome!" Kirishima said excitedly. "Hey, looks like there's an event going on there." Horoki said, the four then proceeded to go and check it out. "Anyone want to try and beat the record?! Destroy these robots in under 17 seconds to take the title!" The announcer said. "Anyone wanna give it a shot?" Liam asked. Kirishima then cracked his knuckles and chuckled. "I can beat that." He said. "Then go down there Mr Tough Guy." Liam said with a smirk. Kirishima went down and took out the robots. "16 seconds!!" The announcer said, Kirishima cheered and saw Bakugo approaching the arena. "Good luck!"

"Shut up." Bakugo said. He did his turn and got 15 seconds. The crowd went wild, he gave a confident smirk and then saw a stranger head towards the arena, it was Endeavor's son, Todoroki. "You half and half bastard?!?" Bakugo shouted. Todoroki did his turn. "14 seconds?!" She shouted in disbelief. "Ok I want in." Horoki said. He did his "second place! 14 seconds!!" Horoki muttered annoyed. "Damn!" Liam then came down while Horoki and Kirishima were holding Bakugo back from killing Todoroki. "12 seconds!!" The announcer said, the boys then looked at Liam who simply laughed with a small smile and waved. Bakugo growled, "I'll kill you!!" He said as he tried to go over the railing. The boys then held him back as Liam proudly held his record. They were then greeted by Midorya and the girls along with a new face. "Oh hey! Who's this?" Liam asked. "This is Melissa! She's been showing us around." Midorya said smiling. "Oh that's cool! I'm Liam!" He said shaking her hand. "Nice to meet you!" The blonde said. "I'm Horoki, but you've probably heard of me." He said confidently. "Yeah, I heard." She said smiling. "Wow so it looks like everyone is here?" Liam said smiling. "Yeah the only thing missing is...-" Midorya was interrupted as they heard a familiar country accent. "Godzillo! I'm a huge fan!!" They turned to see Lincoln fanboying to one of the pro heroes. He signed a picture of Lincoln and him that was recently taken and he walked away, giving a peace sign. Lincoln gave the happiest fanged smiled anyone's seen, "looks like he fanboys harder than Midorya when he sees All-Might." Jiro said snickering. "Hey Mr. Colt!" Uraraka said smiling. He immediately jumped and looked at them with a red face of embarrassment. "H-How much of that did you see?" He said as he tried to straighten up and act like an adult. The girls simply snickered and Horoki showed a picture of Lincoln shaking Godzillo's hand with a stupid smile plastered on his face. "Oh pretty much everything." Horoki said with a smirk. Lincoln covered his face with hat in shame. "No it was cute Mr. Colt! We've never seen you like that before!" Uraraka said smiling. "It shows that you're like us!" Momo said smiling. "Yeah! It's normal to be excited to see your idol." Kirishima said. "Yeeeeah I'm gonna use this for blackmail." Horoki said as he held the picture in his hand. Jiro smacked the back of his head, "quit being mean." She pouted. The group eventually met Kaminari and Mineta who were working as servants for the event, they also met Iida who told them that they were expected to be at the formal event at 6:00.
