Everything I Ever Wanted [ON HOLD]

Stain Encounter

No I did not die, I was just taking my sweet old time updating :) I'm afraid I have been neglecting my schoolwork and now I'm facing the consequences, so I have been busy. I am also working on a cover of the song Might+U with a friend in my spare time so bear with me here.

(No one's POV)

After reuniting with her brother and coming to a mutual agreement with one another, Alpha came back home in high spirits. She wasn't the only one; Toga waltzed in that night with a bloody knife and a stolen newspaper in her hands. "Mr. Stainy is so cool! I wanna be just like him!" she said happily. 

"Who?" Deku asked, scrambling quickly off the couch to read the paper himself. 

Toga looked horrified, "You don't know who he is? Izuku, shame on you!" 

Alpha laughed, "She's talking about Hero Killer: Stain. She's absolutely obsessed with his work."

"He's the reason why I do what I do; I wanna be just like him!" Toga added in cheerfully. "Go on! Read what he did!" 

And so Deku picked up the paper and read, "Hero Killer: Stain attacks the Turbo Hero: Ingenium". He smiled, maybe this is what he could do to be feared; he just wanted to see Bakugo trembling in fear at the sound of his name.

"How many times do I have to tell you, TO USE THE DAMN DOOR? IT EXISTS FOR A REASON!" Ah yes, this again, Alpha getting mad when Shigaraki and Kurogiri randomly shows up into the apartment without any warning. Shigaraki ignores her like the usual. "We know you must've seen the news regarding the hero killer. We came to ask you guys to help us find him," Kurogiri says in his calm and polite manner. 

Toga gasps, then smiles happily, "That would be so cool! Mr. Stainy is cool! I want to work with him! I wanna spill some hero blood with him!"

"Jeez Toga, calm down," Alpha says. Then to Shigaraki, "Fine. Dabi and I know Hosu City well anyways. You guys would have to meet us somewhere to warp us to your place." 

(Alpha's POV)

Dabi and I on the roof of a building scanning the alleyways for any sight of Stain while Toga and Deku searched on foot. I have no idea why, but that's the arrangement we went with. "Who are you?" a voice said from behind us. I whipped around instant only to see the hero killer himself. 

We made eye contact for around a minute before he said, "You're that girl from the USJ incident aren't you? Isn't a bit stupid for you to be wandering freely like this without a disguise while the heroes are looking for you." 

"And you're the hero killer. I am Alpha, nice to meet you," I responded bluntly, ignoring his comments about my appearance. It's true the heroes were looking for me; Endeavor's rogue daughter - it's obvious that he wants me back and obvious that I do not want to go back. "We were actually looking for you in fact, the League of Villains. We have something we would like to discuss in a more secure location," I continued and as if on cue, Kurogiri was there, Dabi pocketing his phone.

"So you want to add me to your numbers? No matter what you want to accomplish, it is necessary to have conviction and desire. Those without it and those who are weak will be weeded out. It's only natural. That's why it turns out like this," Stain said, driving his knifes deeper into Shigaraki's shoulders. Kurogiri was apparently stuck behind the bar counter with a small cut, he was apparently unable to move. Stain didn't bother to stab any of the people in my group, partially because I somehow managed to talk him out of doing so or maybe it was because of the ice barrier I had made. 

"Kurogiri, take this guy back," Shigaraki says, sounding vaguely annoyed. 

"I-I can't move my body... it must be the hero killer's Quirk," Kurogiri says. 

"This society overgrown with fake heroes where the word itself has lost its true meeting, and the criminals who wave their power around idly should all be purged," Stain said, through narrowed eyes. I thought his ideals sounded cool and worth following until I realized that after he was done with Shigaraki and Kurogiri, he would most likely come for us next, seeing that we were technically part of the League. 

As Stain's blades drew closer to the hand on Shigaraki's face, he grabbed it and put all five fingers on it. "Hey, wait a sec... not this palm... I'll kill you." And the blade began to disintegrate in front of Stain's shocked eyes. "You sure talk a lot. Conviction? I don't have anything grand like that? If I had to said... yeah it'd be All Might." The blade turned to dust. "I feel like I want to completely crush this society, where trash like that gets worshiped," he finished, swiping at Stain's face. The hero killer jumped back, holding out his shorter blades now. I felt Toga tense with excitement at the sight of them, and Deku was scribbling stuff down on a piece of scrap paper he had picked up - perhaps it was a stupid idea to bring Stain's biggest fans. 

"My last injury was finally about to finish healing. We don't have a healer in our party you know. Will you take responsibility for this?" Shigaraki asks, and I instantly knew that was the wrong thing to say. 

"So that's who you are...?" Stain asked. "It seems our goals oppose each other. However, we do agree on one thing - to destroy the present." 

"Stop messing around. Go home. Die. I'm the kind of person you hate the most, right?"

"I was testing your true motives. People show their true colors when they're on the verge of death. It might not be too late to wait until after I've seen that to dispose of you," Stain finished. Dispose of you... does he mean... I noticed Kurogiri moving slightly through the corner of my eyes. "So his Quirk does have a limit of how long someone is immobilized, and the time is relatively short," Deku muttered next to me. 

"Kurogiri, I don't want someone this crazy as a party member," Shigaraki says. 

"I believe he will be a great asset if he joins us. The negotiations were successful," Kurogiri states. 

"Yes that is true, but it all depends on him whether or not he wants to join or not. There is no point in forcing someone to join, remember that," I added in. Suddenly everyone was looking at me, I'm pretty sure they forgot I was there. 

"Alpha is right, my business is done here. Now return me to Hosu, there are still some things I must attend to there," Stain says. 

And that was how our first encounter with Stain ended. 

But it wasn't the last. 

Not directly anyways...
