The Crossroads of Destiny (An MHA x DC Comics Crossover)

Chapter 12 - New Bonds

Damian Wayne was walking down a street on a pleasant morning in Musutafu. Last night he had been really bothered by his research on All Might's quirk. No records of what it exactly was, and to top it all off, the suspicious behavior Izuku Midoriya had been showing.

Damian was on his way towards Izuku's apartment, to ask a few questions regarding his quirk. And he hoped to get to the bottom of everything on his mind, he was the son of the world's greatest detective, after all.

The boy walked past many people on his way to Izuku's apartment, some of them were completely normal looking, while others looked like literal mutants. Despite his good amount of time here, he did not get accustomed to people with mutant quirks yet.

As he continued walking down the street, he suddenly noticed someone he instantly recognized in the distance, it was Shoto Todoroki.

Shoto was completely unaware of Damian's presence nearby, he had both of his hands in his pockets, and was enough aware of his surroundings to not bump into someone. The bicolored male seemed lost in thought.

Damian observed Shoto from the other side of the street. He was not expecting to encounter him on his way to Izuku's apartment. But he figured that it would not hurt to see what he was up to. He was not in a rush, so there was enough time.

Damian started following the bicolored male, crossing the street to the side Shoto was on. Damian would keep his distance, just in case. He also had his hood on, so when Shoto would look behind him, he would not recognize Damian at first glance.

Shoto would make his way to the Musutafu central park. There were not that many civilians around in the park for some odd reason, the majority of the civilians must be staying at home due to Scarecrow's attack last night. No one knows what could happen in the next few days.

Shoto would walk off the path in the park, through some bushes. He eventually found himself at the edge of the Musutafu Park Lake, the lake was not that big, but certainly enjoyable.

The bicolored male sat at a bench, letting out a small sigh before closing his eyes. It really seemed like he was lost in thought for some reason.

Damian was hidden behind a bush, as he observed Shoto sitting down on the bench and thinking to himself. It was obvious that Shoto was thinking about something, and by the look on his face, he was not too comfortable with the thoughts.

Damian tried to move his leg a bit more to the right, but accidentally stepped on a branch, which would let out a loud cracking sound. "Shit" Damian thought to himself as he suddenly realized that he had stepped on a branch.

Shoto instantly turned his head towards the bush as he heard the branch cracking, snapping him out of his thoughts. "Who is there?" He said in a calm, but yet intimidating tone.

Damian knew that there was no use in hiding anymore, now that he had revealed his presence. "Seems like I should work more on my stealth in woody areas." Damian said as he then stood up from his crouching position, revealing himself to Shoto.

"Wayne?" Shoto said as he looked over at the raven-haired male, he was quite surprised to see him here. "What are you doing here?" He said, his tone now changing back to his usual calm but yet intimidating one.

"I was walking through the streets and saw you lost in thought, so I got curious and followed you here." Damian replied.

Shoto grunted a bit, he did not like people invading his privacy at all, but then again, he got a bit interested in Damian after finding out that he was quirkless, but yet was pretty strong. Maybe he could use this chance to find out more about him and his skills.
