Chapter 10

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, ZAYDEN! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! Well really late birthday sense it was last Saturday, but regardless I'M BACK BITCHES FOR ANOTHER CHAPTER OF MHA WATCHES DEATH BATTLE! AND FINALLY KRATOS VS SPAWN!

Sorry for the long wait but I've had one hell of a crazy week. Birthday celebration, becoming 21 and an official adult of drinking age, taking some well-deserved time off, and being the supporter to my little brother's Confirmation. Yeah, crazy week. But I'm back with another chapter and thanks SO so much for the support from you guys, my fanfic brother and sisters.

Now to the reviews:

PandakaiLove: Thanks for the support and that is basically what I wanted for this reaction fic. I didn't want this to be the same old reaction stories that everyone does so I wanted to add a little twist to the mix. Izuku's harem pairing will actually be explained in detail next chapter about how the girls all fell for the green bean and while the harem pairing does seem unnecessary at first, that is because it Is and Isn't. This pairing will actually have some impact on the plot of this story beyond the reactions and is also because I just wanted to do it. And I'm glad that my writing skills were enough to help you better understand the Death Battles characters you don't know, despite how much others and my self-destroying mind say otherwise. Thanks again for the support, thanks for understanding my choices and stay safe too.

crossover4: Thanks for the support my man and I agree that Roosterteeth see these videos as free advertisement and how transformative these reaction fics are. Although, respectfully, lets keep things cordial and nice here, we don't want them coming back in force just to spite us.

Remzal Von Enili: Oh boy, just wait till you see this chapter.

Darkness Rissing: Dabi does sound like a good counterpart to Kratos, but I guess you will just have to read the chapter to find out.

OmniUlShaggyOverexaggerated: The moment I saw her blue hair, I knew Felicia's counterpart could be none other than Nejire and yeah Toga is a tragic characters that I greatly feel sorry for and really like. Oh and yeah, this Death Battle is going to set off a lot of alarms in the group's heads.

Fortitude501: Dude thanks for all the info! I honestly did not know all that and I'm hitting myself over it because I Love Spawn, he is so freaking badass! So yeah, I will definitely use this information and you get the credit for this so nice job man! Now hopefully, Ibara won't lose her mind.

Blazblade: Interesting. I like it! I might do exactly like this but I like this idea and will implement this idea into my future chapters. Thanks for the ideas and support!

Steelrain66: I will have this Death Battle be different by teasing GoW 4 but I won't dive into his weapons and gear from that game since it mess up the entire battle.

With all that said and done, here is the index:

"Zayden." -Normal Dialogue

'Zayden.' -Internal or Mental Dialogue

"Zayden." -Wizard Dialogue

"Zayden." -Boomstick or All Might buff form dialogue

"Zayden." -Device, combatant, and fight dialogue

And finally, I do Not own My Hero Academia, or Death Battle, or the franchises shown and represented throughout these chapters, they belong to their creators and owners, like Horikoshi and Bones Studios for MHA and Roosterteeth and the Death Battle channel for DB. And also changes to the Death Battle analysis itself were also with the help of others, such as Fortitude501.

Now, enough talk, IT'S Time For a DEATH BATTLE!


Kratos vs Spawn

Third POV

Mei started the video, most of the guys jumping in the seats from pure excitement, especially Bakugou.

"Of all the warriors who entered this arena, none could compete with these two titans of Death." Wiz proclaimed.

"That actually worries me since the first episode included my counterpart that destroyed an entire species and the second one had a soul stealing sorcerer." Momo said.

"That Just Makes Me More Pumped Up!" Bakugou yelled.

"Kratos, the Ghost of Sparta who single handedly annihilated Olympus." Wiz introduced the first warrior.

"A-Annihilated Olympus?!" Izuku muttered astounded.

"S-Single handedly?!" Iida said as well.

"And Spawn, who managed to dethrone both Satan and God!" Boomstick introduced the other one.

"Come again?!" Itsuka asked.

The destroying all of Olympus feat shocked a lot of the group, but the mention of defeating both Satan and God themselves made everyone's jaws drop. Ibarra started praying to forgive said God for watching such 'blasphemous videos'.

"I'm Wizard and he's Boomstick and it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle." Wizard said again.

The first fighter was a tall, muscular man who appeared to be in his late 30s at most. He was bald with a goatee on his chin, ghostly pale with a red mark going down his left eye to his shoulder, another scar on his other eye, and wearing a permanent looking scowl that made the students and some heroes shiver at the amount of pure hatred in them. He wore only a Spartan warrior skirt with sandals, Golden armaments on his wrists and chains wrapped around him that attached to wicked looking blades.

Kratos

"THAT MAN LOOKS SO MANLY!" Kirishima and Tetsutetsu said.

"FOR ONCE I AGREE WITH YOU SHITTY KUNCKLEHEADS!" Bakugou agreed.

"He kinda scares me." Eri said. Kota reluctantly agreed as well.

"Okay you two how about you guys come with me?" Mirio said. "We can skip this battle and we can go to the dorms and see if Deku has any extra candy apples."

Mirio led the two kids, one white/haired cinnamon roll drooling at the thought of candy apples, away to the door and left. The group proceeded with the video.

(cue God of War music because its Awesome!)

"Kratos is a demigod, raised among the Spartans as their greatest warrior, until one day, his people were threatened to be overrun. It was then he struck a deal with Ares, the God of War." Wiz revealed.

Ares appeared to be a giant of a man, wearing reddish-brown armor and his hair and beard all made of fire. He also looked suspiciously similar to Endeavor.

Todoroki glared at the video, subtly feeling like he wasn't going to like this guy, and that's not even counting the annoyance and slight hatred of this guy looking like his father.

Endeavor would have felt flattered that this was possibly one of his counterpart, except he could feel that with it being the God of War, that it wasn't going to be something to brag about.

"Ares would give him the strength to protect his people and in return, Kratos would become his champion warrior." Wiz continued.

"Striking a deal with a god, especially the God of War doesn't sound like a good idea." Jurota said.

"In fact, many of the myths and legends from Greek mythology involves mortals making deals and bargains with the gods only to be betrayed, fooled, or lose more than they gained." Momo said.

"Kratos became super powerful and really vicious, but was tricked by Ares into killing his own family." Boomstick said.

The group gasped as they saw Kratos, covered in blood and looking horrified at his dead wife and daughter. Izuku suddenly felt a sharp and heart wrenching pain in his heart, tears of pain and loss reaching down his eyes.

The students and heroes looked on the traitorous God of War with hatred, even Endeavor looked upon his possible counterpart with hate and anger.

"It's a good thing that Mirio took Eri and Kota away." Nejire said. "Even though we let them watch the Death battles, I think even this would be too much."

"But hey, he saved some money on child support and divorce." Boomstick commented.

Izuku also felt an unbridled rage like never before go through him and was about to leap through the video to punch Boomstick's face off. The others had similar looks of anger and disgust.

"EVEN I KNOW THATS FUCKED UP!" Bakugou said.

Todoroki's left side started sprouting flames at random in anger and Tokoyami's Dark Shadow starts for grow bigger and more angrier, only to be held back by an angry Tokoyami.

"Heh heh, oh man that...that was bad even for me. No joke, that's rough." Boomstick said.

"At least he has some standards." Momo sighed in exasperation.

Izuku, Tokoyami and Todoroki calmed down after hearing the the clear remorse in Boomstick's words.

"As the white, hot ashes of his family clung permanently to his skin-" Wiz started.

"Oh god!" Torru said. "That's awful! Why did that happen?!"

"It was likely a curse from Ares to leave a permanent reminder and even fuel Kratos's rage." Momo deduced. "Ares in the myths always loved sprouting hatred and rage towards his enemies and allies alike."

"Just like Michael Jackson!" Boomstick interrupted

"Who the hell is Michael Jackson?" Bakugou asked.

"No idea." Shinso said. "Though his name sounds familiar to that famous pop star. What as his name again?"

"Miracle Johnson was his name!" Present Mic said "And making sick music was his game!"

"-His quest for vengeance against the gods of Olympus began." Wizard continued.


BACKGROUND

Over 6' tall

A Spartan Warrior

Holds the Rank of Captain

Self-Centered Anti-Hero

Superhuman strength, Speed and & Endurance


"As a demigod, Kratos possesses incredible strength, speed and endurance. He can survive the pummeling of a Titan and best the power of Hercules." Wiz said.

The group watched in awe as Kratos fought against not only Hercules himself, but a massive Titan the size of a Freaking Mountain!

"THAT THING IS FUCKING HUGE!" Kaminari yelled out.

"Even I can't reach a size that high!" Mount Lady said, astounded and terrified at the size of the creature.

"To fight against a creature of that size and power is...unreal." Iida said utterly flabbergasted.

"I'm not sure even All Might could fight a monster that big and strong." Uraraka said.

"Sadly, I think I can agree with you on that Young Uraraka." All Might said.

"Not only that but he fought against Hercules!" Kirishima said. "That's SUPER MANLY!"


BLADES OF EXILE

Dual Short Swords

Wield with Chains Seared to Arms

Hooked Design

Made from the Remains of the Blades of Athena


The first weapon shown was the Blades of Exile. They appeared as two short swords with wicked cool designs. The blades were jagged and had a yellow glow to them, attached to hilts that sported demonic mouths in its design, and were connected to chains that wrapped around Kratos's arms.

The overall design of them made Bakugou's and Kamakiri's mouths water.

"Kratos wields the Blades of Exile, twin short swords bounded to his arms by chains. The blades have a hooked design which Kratos can use to cut right through his enemies or snag them and whip em' around. And like most badass weapons, they can somehow emit fire!" Boomstick explained.

"I SO WANT THOSE WEAPONS!" Bakugou yelled out. "TECH BITCH, BUILD ME THEM!"

"I think not Bakugou." Aizawa said. "If you are going to be a hero, I don't believe hooking your enemies with hooked and deadly blades is the right way to do it."

"Kratos is well trained in sword combat and possesses what may be the most powerful sword the Greek gods have to offer— The Blade of Olympus." Wiz said.

The sword was incredibly long, glowing in blue ethereal fire and light, and its hilt looked incredibly excessive and yet majestic.

"That sword looks so...so..." Shihai said.

"Heavenly." Ibarra said, astounded. "Beautiful."

"It's very glow of it through a screen is making me feel weak." Tokoyami said.

"The Light! The Light! It Burns!" Dark Shadow screeched.


BLADE OF OLYMPUS

Can Kill Gods & Titans

Contains God Powers

Fires Blue Energy Waves

About 5 Feet Long


"After Kratos killed Ares, uh, Spoiler!" Boomstick said.

Cheers went up at the traitorous God's demise, yet they were still shocked that Kratos was able to kill a god, an immortal, 'unkillable' being.

"He was made the God of War, but Zeus tricked him putting all of his godly powers into this sword. Making him mortal once again." Boomstick continued explaining.

"Why would Zeus do that?!" Uraraka asked.

"Like Father like son." Todoroki mumbled bitterly.

"Zeus is by far one of the most heinous, traitorous, and disgusting deities of all mythology." Izuku said, his voice rising higher, as if he had first hand experience. "He betrays his own godly brothers and sisters for power, his lies and tricks mortals into doing his bidding with promises of glory and reward only to fool them, he seduces countless women to satisfy his lust and rapes them if they resist!"

The students were stunned, but not by Zeus's deeds, but rather the look of utter rage and hatred in Izuku's face, as well as lightning sprouting out of him. Uraraka looked at Deku worried as his look of hatred looked similar to Kratos's.

"D-Deku, calm down." Uraraka said. "I know that Zeus is a horrible person, but he's not real. He's only in another world and I'm sure he will get what's coming to him. But just calm down."

Izuku breathed in and out and his look of rage vanished, confusion taking its place. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't know what came over me. I just felt...not like myself."

All Might and Nezu looked at each other, worried about Midoriya and sought to talk to him about it later.

Meanwhile, Hound Dog sniffed the air and perked up when he smelled something off, something...new.

"And making the Blade of Olympus a deadly harbinger of death to even the toughest of Olympians." Wizard explained as the video continued.


GOLDEN FLEECE

Gold Armlet

Blocks Attacks

Deflects Projectiles & Magical Attacks

Strong Enough to Counter the Blade of Olympus


"His most versatile defense is his Golden Fleece. Armor capable of blocking powerful blows and deflecting magical attacks."

"A nice solid defensive weapon to match his offense." Momo said.

"That Fleece looks awesome!" Kirishima said. "It reminds me of my Quirk! Yours too Tetsutetsu!"

"I know Right!"

"But there's a whole lot more to this guy's arsenal." Boomstick announced.


BOW OF APOLLO

Can Rapid-Fire Arrows

Charged Fire Arrows

Does Not Drain Kratos' Magic Limit

Quick with Long Range


"Like the Bow of Apollo, which can shoot a rapid stream of arrows or charge up deadly fire arrows." Boomstick revealed.

"A nice long range tool against far away foes." Todoroki said.


CLAWS OF HADES

Used like Blades of Exile

Spiked Chains & Hooks

Rips Souls from Victims

Can be Resisted

Can Summon Souls

Slower than the Blades of Exile


The next weapon shown was a pair of hooked, razor sharp blades, compete with spikes and attached by chains. They glowed a purplish, ethereal glow that made Tokoyamia and Shihai shiver in anticipation.

"Then there's the Claws of Hades which mercilessly rips the souls out of their victims. Though, tough opponents like Kratos can resist them." Wiz explained.

"So dark. So deadly. So powerful." Tokoyami said. "Revelry in the Dark."


NEMEAN CESTUS

Giant Metal Gauntlets

Lion-Like Appearance

Originally Owned by Hercules

Incredibly Strong

Can Create Shockwaves which Stun Foes

Slowest of all the weapons


"The Nemean Cestus are giant, ultra strong gauntlets, which can stun foes with brutal shockwaves." Boomstick explained.

"I WANT THOSE TOO!" Bakugou tried claiming.

"NO!" Kirishima yelled. "You just can't have All the weapons Bakubro! Leave some for the rest of us! Those gauntlets would work perfectly with my Quirk!"

"Don't forget about me!" Tetsutetsu yelled. "Paring those shockwaves with my heat absorption and defense would be a perfect unstoppable force!"


BOOTS OF HERMES

Greaves with Small Wings

Improved Running Speed

Can Run Up Walls


"The Boots of Hermes give him superhuman speed so fast that he can run up walls." Wiz explained.

"Sounds a lot like your Quirk, Iida." Uraraka said.

"With a dash of Asui's wall crawling." Iida added out.

"Agreed. Ribbit." Asui said.


ICARUS WINGS

Can Glide and Fly

Huge 18' Wingspan

Slowly Falls Apart During Flight

Ripped from Icarus' Back


"And when battled the infamous Icarus, he ripped those huge wings off the old fool's back and took them for his own, giving him powers of flight." Wiz explained.

"He has flight too?!" Kaminari said shocked. "How many weapons does this guy have?!"

"Holy crap, that's a lot of weapons! I like this guy." Boomstick declared.

"Exactly!" Kaminari said.

"Kratos is not invincible, but he's really difficult to kill." Wiz said.

"Hell, he can't even kill himself!" Boomstick stated.

They watched with horror and sick curiosity as Kratos impaled himself with the Blade of Olympus, a bright beam of light shooting out from him and sparkling over the sky.

"Why did he stab himself?!" Pony questioned. "Is it because of that beam of light?"

"Kratos held the power of hope inside of him and when Kratos destroyed all of the Olympians and brought upon the apocalypse, he pierced himself with the Blade of Olympus to free the power of Hope to give to the mortals to survive forward."

Stunned and shocked looks appeared towards the one who said that: Izuku.

"H-How do you possibly know that Midori?!" Mina said. "Are your powers of deduction that OP?!"

"U-Uh...I-I don't know." Izuku mumbled as he suddenly was snapped out of a trance. "It...it just came to my head...like the anger from before..."

Nezu frowned and thought about why Midoriya was suddenly experiencing these episodes. He, All Might, and Izuku and definitely going to have a talk after this. Hound Dog once again sniffed the air and picked up the scent from earlier appeared. Hound Dog could sense it coming from Midoriya and it smelt like burning brimstone and...mistletoe? Hound Dog also sniffed the air and picked up another scent coming from somewhere else in the room, a smell that he doesn't recognize but it was everywhere.

"In his rage, he tore apart the ranks of Mount Olympus and slaughtered every god upon and below it… except for Aphrodite." Wiz explained.

"For obvious reasons." Boomstick said.

Kaminari and Sero didn't even both trying to hide their nose bleeds over the goddess of love. Guys and girls alike were blushing, especially Izuku, who felt phantom touches of pleasure, especially below the waist.

"In doing so, he ultimately brought about the end of the world. Without the power of the gods to keep the chaos in check, the apocalypse had arrived. And it's vanguard was Kratos." Wiz continued. "But don't mistake his actions as purely destructive, as by in the destruction of the Olympian Gods, he freed humanity from their corrupted tyranny and, upon striking himself, gave the power of hope and choice back to humanity."

"Huh, you were right Young Midoriya." All Might said.

"I can kinda feel sorry for the guy." Boomstick said. "Lost his family, killed his other family in the most massive temper tantrum ever, and couldn't even kill himself to ease the nightmares."

"He truly became Death, Destroyer of Worlds." Wiz said. "But he at least has found the paths of a new beginning and a new family."

A scene was shown of an older Kratos, with a thick beard and an axe on his back, holding a young boy with bow on his back.

The students smiled at that. Izuku himself held a tear as he felt fatherly pride and love course through his heart before disappearing.

"I was trying to make you a great warrior…" Ares told Kratos.

"You succeeded." He responded. He then stabbed Ares through with the a sword, killing the God of War.

Mixed reaction ensued upon Kratos. The heroes defiantly didn't like him over causing the apocalypse and his near senseless murder of everybody in his way. Bakugou and Kamakiri loved the guy and his brutal strength, power, and deadliness. The rest of the students were especially mixed and confused. They of course didn't approve of the murder and viciousness of Kratos, but feel sympathetic for the loss of his family and his understood his thirst for revenge.

They continued the video to find the second combatant.

Spawn.

This combatant was first shown as an African American man dressed in black tactical gear.

"Al Simmons was trained to be a deadly, stealthy soldier and assassin, and proved numerous times he was the best of the best. But, when his morality got the better of him, his boss terminated his contract permanently." Wiz explained.

The group watched in horror as Simmons was burned to a crisp while his boss stood above him, saluting to him.

"Guess these two are no strangers to betrayal." Sato said.

"That's when Simmons met Malebogia, one of the demon lords of Hell, who struck a deal with him." Boomstick continued.

"And the two made pacts with beings that you obviously don't make deals with." Shoji said.

"Yeah, you must be incredibly desperate to make a deal with a freaking Demon!" Ojiro said.

Malebogia was shown as a monstrous demon with large green eyes, horns, a large mouth with razor sharp teeth and a long tongue, and sporting long, raggedy white hair.

Izuku flinched, the phantom feelings of anger and rage appearing again. He also couldn't help but compare the creature to look like a more demon looking Shigaraki.

"He would get to see his wife again if he became captain of Hell's' army. He agreed and was reborn as a hellspawn. But as with most demons, it tricked him, leaving Spawn with a fate worse than death, and of course, Spawn swore revenge." Boomstick explained.

The group watched as Simmons came back to life only to find his wife married with another man with a daughter.

"Ouch." Kaminari said. "At least it's better that she's alive and not killed."

"I don't think he would agree." Izuku said, looking downcast. "Imagine it. You are given the chance to meet with the woman you love once again, a woman you love so much that you gave up your soul to a Demon to be with her. Then you come back and she has moved on with another man and they have a daughter, a life that you could have had, now torn away forever."

Uncomfortable silence ensued. The girls looked to Izuku's sadden look with concern. The guys too looked concerned that Izuku has recently been expressing so much connection between the two fighters.

Moving on, Spawn's official look was shown, much to the stunned amazement and excitement and even fear. He was tall, covered in a black skin-tight suit with two streaks of white over his chest and suit, chains and red armaments on his legs and writs, ghostly green eyes, and a torn up long red cape that flowed as if it were sentient.


BACKGROUND

Height: 6'2"

Weight: 450 lbs.

Skilled Assassin

Superhuman Strength, Speed & Durability

Composed of Necroplasm

Regeneration Healing


"Being a hellspawn, he has superhuman strength and speed. He's nearly invulnerable and can use his own powers to heal and regenerate." Wiz explained.

This interested All Might and Endeavor as the two heroes that have fought incredibly powerful regenerating Nomus.

"In addition, Spawn can feed or draw from the evil auras of others for the same effect, it really saves him on band aids." Boomstick said.

"Revelry in the dark." Tokoyami and Shihai muttered.


LEETHA OF THE 7TH HOUSE OF K

Symbiotic Suit

Limited by Imagination

Can Create Chains, Spikes, Claws, Shrouds, etc.

Has a Mind of it's Own

Feeds off Necroplasm of Natural Evil Energies


"He wears a living, parasitic, symbiotic suit named Leetha of the 7th House of K." Wiz said.

"Sounds an awful lot like your Dark Shadow, Tokoyami." Momo said. "Minus the feeding off Necroplasm feature."

Tokoyami nodded.

"Leetha has ridiculous powers. Basically, anything she or Spawn wants to happen, can happen. The suit can create and control chains, claw spikes and morph itself into anything Spawn wants, like a badass cape that can trap enemies and protect Spawn from all sorts of danger."

"That's amazing!" Izuku said. "It can function as both an offense weapon from short and long range to a defense shield and even camouflage!"

"Sounds like it could also keep up with Kratos's plethora of weapons." Shinso said.

"The suit has a mind of it's own, and can operate while Spawn focuses on other parts of the battle. It's strong enough to easily smash through brick and fast enough to block bullets." Wiz said.

"Interesting." Todoroki said.

"However, Leetha feeds off necroplasm energy when using the suit's power; a hellish matter which Spawn is entirely composed of. If Leetha uses too much, Spawn will be sent back to Hell. However, like Spawn, Leetha can also feed off the evil and sin of others." Wiz said.

"That would be the perfect weapon against villains!" Izuku said.

""Indeed." Aizawa said. "It can absorb a villain's energy enough to weaken them or incapacitate them and strengthen him at the same time. A truly vicious combination."


MAGIC

Can Alter Matter

Communicate with Animals (Koda likes)

Flight & Teleportation

Necroplasm Projection

Healing the Sick & Even Resurrecting the Dead

Elemental Control


"Spawn's also got tons of magic powers, he can teleport, transform, blow things up, turn invisible, alter matter, talk to animals, fly with his cape, *draws in breath* reads minds and opens portal to Heaven and Hell. Ho-ly Crap!" Boomstick said with amazement and nearly running out of breath.

"And he can control the elements, often using fire and water to clear swarms of enemies." Wiz explained further.

Jaws dropped left and right at the plethora of Spawn's magical abilities. Everybody pretty much agreed that if Spawn ever turned bad, not one of them could stand against him.

"However, even with all these godlike abilities, Spawn often refers to his most primitive weapons." Wiz said. "As he was trained in Special Forces for so long, Spawn is most comfortable using a gun."


EXPERT MARKSMAN

Weapon of Choice

Least Effective Weapon

Skilled in All Types


"He's an expert in the use of any firearm imaginable." Wiz said.

"Now that I like." Snipe said. "Makes sense too. With that training, a warrior would be effective using a weapon he is an expert at using rather than something he's not."


SPECIFIC WEAKNESSES

Magic Necroplasm

Holy Weapons Forged in Heaven

His Dwindling Amount of Necroplasm

Can only Die through Beheading


"Only two things can break through Spawn's defenses and hurt him, Necromagic and holy weapons forged from Heaven, in addition, he can only die if he's beheaded." Boomstick said.

"Seems rather obvious that heavenly weaponry can slay a fearsome demonic creature like himself." Ibarra said.

"Spawn has fought and killed all sorts of powerful enemies; assassins, cyborgs, vampires, ghosts, Angels, Demons, other hellspawn, rampaging deities, and even Satan and God. Yes, that old lady, is the God." Wizard explained.

The audience was once again astounded by Spawn's feats, especially the Satan feat, that made them fear him even more, and the God feat that made them all pretty much terrified of the hellspawn.

"Really?! God looks like my nana, am I a demigod?" Boomstick asked.

This made the more lighthearted people chuckle, the serious ones roll their eyes, and Ibarra going down on her hands and knees praying that all of this was not true in their world, her Class-1B female classmates noticing steams of comical smoke steaming out of her ears.

"And, after being granted unlimited power by the Mother of All Things, Spawn banished God and Satan from the Earth, which he wiped clean and rebuilt into his own image. He then willingly sacrificed his own god powers and eventually returned to his hellspawn form." Wiz explained.

"Aah, why the hell would he do that? He must've been really bored." Boomstick joked.

"Except that was all proven false." Wiz suddenly said.

A record scratching noise sounded.

"Say what?" Boomstick asked.

"Huh?" Was the audience's similar response. Ibara raised her head in silent hope.

"Well ok long story short, the God and Satan that he banished were actually impostors." Wiz explained. "And soon the real Satan appeared with a demonic army to try to bring on the apocalypse. Then the real God returned and she, yes I said she, also returned, was actually super good and nice, and helped Spawn by giving him a super powerful weapon known as the Sword of Spirit. Spawn then took on the real Satan, even stronger than ever and fought of Satan off, who was as powerful as the real God herself."

"Huh, what do you know? You learn something new everyday." Boomstick said.

A wall burst forth in an explosion of fire and and out of the rumble came out Spawn, guns in hand. "Knock Knock."

The group was still reeling from the information that they heard, but they most accurate reactions were sheer shock and total fear towards Spawn's power, Kirishima's and Tetsutetsu's brains short-circuiting in from Spawn's 'acts of pure manliness', Mina's, Toru's, and Kaminari's brain short-circuiting from trying to understand all that was said, and Ibara doing a happy jig proclaiming 'Hallelujah' that her prays were answered, much to the comical sweat dropped amusement of her classmates.

"Alright the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all." Wiz said.

"Its time for a Death Battle!" Boomstick yelled out.

As the video searched up multiversal counterparts to the two fighters, they voted for who would win.

Those who voted for Kratos that were noticeable included Momo and Iida, for his mythological ties, Ibarra, who had a bit of a grudge towards Spawn defeating God, even though she didn't know the reasons, Uraraka with Asui behind her, because of their sympathy for Kratos's family that he involuntarily killed, Todoroki, because Kratos killing Ares, Kirishima and Tetsutetsu, who respected Kratos defeating Hercules and his armor, Mount Lady, for his victory against a giant Titan, and a reluctant Bakugou, who was extremely divided by the two fighters but chose the one that had the cool weapons in the end.

The most noteworthy votes for Spawn included Tokoyami, because of his similar sentient, symbiotic creature, Shihai, following Tokoyami's mindset and affinity for darkness, Shinso and Mandaley for his mind reading powers and magic, Kaminari, because he figured a guy able to control the elements could also control lightning, Aizawa because of his plethora of abilities, short list of weaknesses, and assassin training, Snipe, because of Spawn's affinity for guns, and Nezu, who only smiled cryptically.

Izuku was the only one who opted out of voting.

"Why Deku?" Uraraka said.

Before Deku could answer, the video answered for him. "SCANNING COMPLETE! KRATOS! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: KAT-ERROR! ERROR! OUTSIDE COSMIC, MULTIDIMENSIONAL INTERVENTION DETECTED! INTERVENTION IDENTIFIED AND ACCEPTED! KRATOS! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: IZUKU MIDORIYA!"

Shocked silence filled the room that the adorable, friendly, and heroic cinnamon roll of Class-1A could ever be connected to a raging, hate filled, destructive, and violent demigod like Kratos.

'Could this be why Young Midoriya experiences those random and out of place reaction to Zeus and how he knew why Kratos stabbed himself?' All Might pondered in thought. 'But if that's the case, then why now with Young Midoriya and not the rest of the students during the previous fights, or when Midoriya was Leonardo? Could it have to be that Kratos is a demigod and connected to magic?'

"SPAWN! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: IZUKU MIDORIYA!"

"WHAT?!" Was the general reaction from most of the audience.

"HOW COME SHITTY DEKU IS COUNTERPARTS TO BOTH KRATOS AND SPAWN?!" Bakugou said. "IF ANYONE SHOULD BE KRATOS IT WOULD OBVIOUSLY BE ME AND SPAWN WOULD OBVIOUSLY BE EMO BIRD BOY OVER THERE!"

"Honestly, I have to agree with Bakugou for once." Todoroki said. "Tokoyami's symbiotic relation with his own Quirk, Dark Shadow, would fit with Spawn's symbiotic suit and Bakugou definitely has the temperament to be Kratos."

"Yeah, and I can't honestly see Deku as either of them personality wise." Uraraka said. "So why is it that Deku is both Spawn and Kratos from their world?"

As they pondered on why this could be, the video once again asked their question. "SCANNING IZUKU MIDORIYA! CONNECTING WITH MULTIDIMENSIONAL ENERGY ACQUIRED FROM WIZARD! CONNECTION ESTABLISHED! IZUKU MIDORIYA'S RELEVANCE AND STATUS AS 'MAIN PROTAGONIST' OF THIS UNIVERSE AND SIMILAR MULTIVERSES, ADDING COSMIC INTERVENTION FROM UNKNOWN CELESTIAL AND MULTIDIMENSIONAL DEITY, APPEARS TO CONNECT HIM WITH THESE TWO COMBATANTS!"

"So Izuku's connection with the two is simply because of some cosmic hi-jinks from some Multiverse God or something?" Kyouka said.

"Also that Main Protagonist Status it pointed out is interesting." Momo said. "Normally that would mean that if this world of ours was a show, movie, book, or anime, then Izuku would be considered the one that is most looked on."

Izuku is squirming in his seat at the attention, especially with being cast into this role of a typical Chosen One role. Bakugou meanwhile was currently fuming at not being the 'Main protagonist' himself.

Before Bakugou could yell out his discontent, the video interrupted them and answered for them for the third time. "SCANNING FOR SIMILARITIES AND COMPARISONS BETWEEN IZUKU MIDORIYA, KRATOS, AND SPAWN! COMPARISONS INCLUDE: BETRAYAL AND TORMENT FROM AN ALLY MADE ENEMY AT A YOUNGER AGE, MULTIPLE UNIQUE UNIVERSE SINGULARITIES IDENTIFIED AS QUIRKS DORMANT INSIDE GENETIC MAKEUP SIMILAR TO BOTH COMBATANTS' ABILITIES, SUPERHUMAN STRENGTH AND SPEED, AND TACTICAL KNOWLEDGE AND ANALYSIS RELEVANT TO SPAWN'S SPECIAL FORCES TRAINING AND KRATOS'S SPARTAN MILITARY TACTICS AND PUZZLE ANALYSIS!"

Silence again filled the room. Nezu, Gran Torino, Recovery Girl, and All Might were practically sweating bullets at the black box referring to One For All and the hidden quirks of the past users. The guys were seeing Midoriya in a new light that bordered between amazement and terror.

The heroes and teachers, especially Endeavor, looked to the Class 1A student, with slight suspicion over the multiple hidden Quirks that was said. Aizawa looked to All Might who also looked nervous but in a different way: his face wasn't that of shocked revelation but of recognition, like a child being caught red handed. He made a point to speak to the former Symbol of Peace when they finished with the video.

The girls of Class-1B were stunned at Izuku's suppose importance and comparisons with the two fighters, most especially Setsuna. She had her eye on the similarly haired teen and this was just gas to the fire to further her curiosity.

The girls of Class-1A, Nejire, and Mei toned out everything that was said after the part where Izuku had 'similar experiences of betrayal and torment from a suppose ally in the past. Their brains starting proposing things they didn't want to think: bullying or abuse. They decided to hold off their thoughts on the matter for later.

Izuku and Bakugou, however, were looking at the screen frozen with pure horror. The two were obviously concerned about One For All being practically hinted towards the whole group, but what truly terrified them was the machine spilling the beans of Izuku and Bakugou's past, a past that had two childhood friendships turn to betrayal from one of them, becoming a bully and practical tormentor to the other.

A secret the two wish to keep secret for the same and different reasons.

Nezu spoke up with "I know many of you wish to further elaborate on this but may I remind you that the purpose of this gathering is to watch these Death Battles. When we leave for the day, you may gather your thoughts later, but for now, let's us resume this Death Battle please?"

The group nodded and decided to continue. The video continued with the voice saying "ADDITIONAL MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPARTS RELATING TO CHARACTERS DETECTED!"

"Huh, so we are getting the counterparts to the others shown in their backstories?" Iida said. "Intriguing."

"ARES! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: ENJI TODOROKI AKA ENDEAVOR!"

Endeavor sighed knowing that this would be the case. He stood and gave Izuku an attempt at apology for his counterpart's actions towards his own. Izuku mumbled that it was unnecessary.

"LYSANDRE AND CALLIOPE, WIFE AND DAUGHTER OF KRATOS, MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPARTS: OCHAKO URARAKA AND ERI! ATREUS, SON OF KRATOS! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: IZUMI KOUTA!"

Uraraka was sent into a spiraling blushing storm over being married to Deku in another elite, only to come to senses when she remembered that she died along with Eri as her daughter and how that caused Deku to suffer.

Izuku's grunted in a headache as images flashed in his mind. He saw images of Uraraka in Ancient Greek clothing smiling lovingly at him, images of Eri running around and looking at him with happiness and love, love and happiness that he didn't deserve. They then changed to him running alongside Kota through snow woods, hunting a deer. Izuku snapped out of his images and surmised that they belonged to Kratos, his counterpart, and decided to talk with All Might about these episodes.

"MALBOGEIA!" MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: TENKO SHIMURA AKA TOMURA SHIGARIKI!"

"I knew that demon looked familiar." Uraraka said, frowning at the memory of Shigaraki's hand around Deku's neck. "I should have noticed the striking similarities, one demon to another."

"ZEUS! MULTIVERSAL COUNTERPART: TOSHINORI YAGI AKA ALL MIGHT!"

"WHAT?!" The students and heroes gasped.

"How can All Might be anyway related to Zeus, especially this Zeus that betrayed Kratos?" Mina said.

"Well Zeus was known as the King of Olympus and the strongest of the Olympian Gods." Iida said. "It's not hard to compare him with All Might strength and position wise with All Might as the Symbol of Peace and semi-leader of Japan's Hero Society and Strongest Hero."

All Might ended up spewing apology after apology towards Midoriya who, likewise to Endeavor, said that it was okay and that he shouldn't be held accountable for the actions of another.

With all that said and done, they decided to cease the question and ponderings and focus on the video.

The video began the fight with an underground castle illuminated by torch lights. Kratos was shown walking up a flight of stairs and onto a wide platform. As he walked past it and almost reached the other stairs, a burst of green flames exploded behind him. Out of the flames stood Spawn. Kratos brought out the Blades of Exile from his back.

FIGHT!

Kratos tossed his blades towards Spawn in hopes of snagging him, only for Leetha to sprout chains from his body that parried the attacks. Kratos continued launching attacks with the Blades of Exile with Leetha blocking's every attempt, whirl Spawn himself was standing perfectly still.

"Damn." Kaminari said. "That's badass! He's just standing there doing nothing while Kratos fails to hit him!"

Spawn, getting bored, brought out of nowhere a large machine gun and fired onto Kratos. The demigod blocked the bullets using his Golden Fleece armor.

"Nice defense!" Kirishima yelled.

Kratos slashed the gun away from Spawn's hands and attempted to capitalize by slamming both swords onto Spawn. Spawn, using his magic, teleported away in a burst of green fire. Spawn appeared again behind Kratos and attempted to strike the demigod with an uppercut.

Kratos sensed the attack coming and blocked it by crossing his arms. Spawn unleashed a Necroplasm powered punch that knocked Kratos back a few feet. Kratos then launched his right blade into Spawn's gut and dragged the hellspawn towards Kratos who delivered a good old Sparta kick and knocked him back.

"Impressive use of his blades to strike from afar and drag enemies towards him for close range fighting." Nezu said. "Reminds me of your fighting style with your capture scarf, Aizawa."

Aizawa nodded.

Spawn landed and dodged other attack from Kratos, the demigod running after the hellspawn that continued to evade him.

"GO BACK THERE SHITTY DEMON DEKU AND FIGHT SHITTY DEMIGOD DEKU!" Bakugou yelled.

"Is he angry because Spawn is running, or because he just wants to see Midoriya's counterpart's fight each other to the death?" Sero asked.

"A bit of both." Kirishima said. "But I agree a little bit. If Spawn defeated both Satan and God, why is he evading and running?"

"They said that Spawn was trained in Special Forces as an assassin." Momo said. "While it is the reason why he uses guns more often than not, training to be an assassin means deploying hit and run tactics and putting the battle under their terms."

Kratos rushed into the room to find no trace of Spawn. As he looked around, he failed to notice Spawn hanging from the ceiling, camouflaged.

"He has invisibility too?!" Torru said.

"He also appears to be able to latch onto walls like me." Asui said. "Though mine is because of my Frog Quirk and the other is probably due to his talons or spikes."

Spawn descended and struck Kratos with a swift downward kick form above. He followed it up with a quick jab and a devastating roundhouse kick that sent the demigod flying. Spawn quickly exploded in green fire and teleported to where Kratos was heading, striking him upwards, teleporting again and unleashing a flurry of super fast strikes onto Kratos from the air. He then smacked him away and teleported.

"Kratos seems to have the advantage in a head on fight with his brute strength but Spawn has the speed and stealth advantage that makes hit and run fights more in his favor." Iida said.

Kratos recovered as Spawn, who stood above the stairs, launched a ball of green Necroplasm onto him. Kratos brought out the Golden Fleece armor and bounced the attack back at Spawn. He then latched onto the hellspawn with his blades and brought him over to him. Kratos brought out the Nean Cauctuses and slammed them onto Spawn in a devastating haymaker.

"Wait, where is he even getting all those weapons from?" Sen asked. "He's wearing nothing but sandals and a skirt."

"Maybe he is using his own magical powers to create a pocket dimension to store his weapons." Izuku said. "Or maybe they just magically appear on him when needed."

"You would know." Sen said. "He is you. Both of them actually."

Spawn recovered next to a chasm and as a Kratos rushed him, he jumped and floated above the chasm, laughing tauntingly at the demigod from above.

Spawn fired more blasts of Necroplasm at Kratos, who blocked them with his Golden Fleece armor as they bounced away. Kratos magically brought out his wings of Icarus, flew into the air himself, and slammed into the hellspawn that defeated God.

The two slammed into the ledge on the other side of the large chasm, Kratos hanging onto the ledge as Spawn hovered above him. "You are pissing me off." Spawn said in a deep, menacing voice.

"That voice sounds so menacing. And sexy." Mina said as she shivered in both fear and arousal.

Izuku displayed a contrast to the menacing hellspawn by blushing and burning up so much his forehead was as hot as hellfire.

Kratos responded but latching onto Spawn with the Blades of Exile, drawing green blood from the hellspawn, and dragged them both downward onto the chasm. The two fell before landing in on solid ground unscathed. Kratos immediately brought out the Bow of Apollo and fired a stream of arrows towards Spawn. The hellspawn that dethroned Satan commanded Leetha to shield him with his cape, the arrows bouncing off the armored piece of clothing.

Kratos charged up a fire arrow to attack, but Spawn reacted by using his elemental magic to make the flames explode out. The flames shot out of control and engulfed Kratos in the flames, Kratos screaming in pain. Spawn doubled down by creating another ball of Necroplasm magic and tossed it over, causing a series of explosions.

"HEY SHITTY DEMON DEKU! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN CAUSE EXPLOSIONS! GET YOUR OWN SHTICK!" No guesses needed to know where that came from.

"Is it over?" Uraraka questioned.

Kratos lunged out of the fire, the Blade of Olympus in hand, and brought the sword down only for Spawn to teleport a few feet away.

"HES ALIVE!" Kirishima and Tetsutetsu exclaimed.

"And wielding the Blade of Olympus." Itsuka said. "Since I guess it's considered a holy weapon, then if Kratos strikes at Spawn then-"

"He will Kill him!" Setsuna finished her train of throught.

The guys who voted for Kratos, ie Bakugou, Kirishima, and Tetsutetsu cheered for the slayer of Olympus to defeat the hellspawn.

Spawn unleashed a flurry of chains to attack Kratos, Kratos slashing through with the godly weapon as he neared the hellspawn. He then rushed forward and stabbed the holy weapon through Spawn's gut.

"YES!" Bakugou cheered. "KRATOS WON!"

"No he didn't." Tokoyami said, smirking.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ON BIRD BRAIN?!" Bakugou yelled out. "SPAWN IS WEAK TO HOLY WEAPONS AND-"

Bakugou has his question answered as Spawn teleported behind Kratos and grabbed him by the demigod's head. "Die!" Spawn said, as a spike erupted through Spawn's hand and through Kratos's head, piercing the demigod's brain and killing him instantly.

K.O!

Bakugou's mouth dropped in shock, disbelief written all over his face.

"Spawn can be killed by holy weapons, but only if he is beheaded." Todoroki said, eyes widening as he remembered that important detail. "Kratos only stabbed him through his chest and while I'm sure it hurt, it didn't kill him out right."

Tokoyami let out a smug grin. Bakugou decided to just sit back down and try to hold back every thought in his head that wanted for him to strangle the bird headed hero student or Icy-Hot.

"Oooh man, here comes the rage from the God of War fanboys." Boomstick said.

"SHUT THE HELL UP YOU DRUNK GUN LOVING IDIOT BEFORE I BUILD MY OWN UNIVERSE HOPPING MACHINE AND GO OVER THERE TO BLOW YOUR FACE UP!" Bakugou yelled.

"Kratos is a very difficult one to beat, but Spawn's magical powers and near indestructible body proved too much for him." Wiz explained.

"Yeah, normally, that last attack would've meant the end of his opponent. But not Spawn." Boomstick claimed.

"And while much of Kratos' arsenal were forged by Olympians, Olympus is composed of earthly elements, and is not another plane of existence like Heaven. So it stands to reason no Olympian weapons can kill Spawn." Wiz explained.

"I guess that makes sense." Kyouka said. "I wouldn't exactly put mythological pagan gods on the level of The God, if they exist, or compare Olympus to Heaven."

"Except the Blade of Olympus, but it wasn't enough. Plus, this is the same guy who beat the shit out of Satan himself!" Boomstick continued.

"No decapatation, no dead Spawn." Ojiro simplified.

"Plus, Spawn and his suit have plenty of evil energy to feed on during the fight, since Kratos is literally covered in his past sins." Wiz explained.

"I didn't even realize that!" Nejire said.

"That means that Spawn could have fought Kratos for as long as he needed to to tire the demigod out and finish him." Ryukyu said. "And the more the fight progressed, the more Kratos would tire and be unlikely to strike a fatal blow against Spawn."

"And even then, if it makes those God of War fanboys feel any better, Kratos can just fight his way out of the Underworld, like the last times he died." Wiz said.

"He fought his way of Death?!" Kirishima said. "THAT IS SUPER MANLY!"

"Well that was one 'Hell' of a fight." Boomstick punned.

"Meh, I give that joke a 4 out of ten." Kaminari said.

"The winner is Spawn." Wizard finished.

"Phew, that was my favorite battle thus far." Kaminari said.

"Same here." Sen said.

"Agreed." Tokoyami and Shihai said at the saem time.

"Are they just gonna say the same thing over and over every time something dark comes along?" Kosei asked.

"Probably." Awase said.

"Next time on Death Battle." Boomstick said, dramatic music picking up afterwards.

Slayer of Dragons

Explosion Extraordinaire

As the words that described the next fighters, it hyped on the students and intrigued the heroes, especially Bakugou at the Explosion Extraordinaire part. They expected for these two fighters to be like knights or beings of magical power.

Only for them to be shown the image of a blue guy in an all white suit with a jackhammer and air pump and a goofy looking man with a cartoon bomb in hand.

Silence.

"PfffftAHAHAHAHA!" Kaminari laughed. "OH THAT'S HILARIOUS! THOSE GUYS LOOK RIDICULOUS!"

The students and some heroes followed suit in laughing, with the more serious people, ie Endeavor, Aizawa, and Iida, only rolled their eyes, groaned, and wave their arms like a juiced up robot with a stunned face.

"As much as we would all like to see how this battle turns out, this is the last video for the day, I'm afraid." Nezu said. "We shall call it a day for now and tomorrow we can continue with some more fights."

The students first complained but a pointed look from Aizawa and Vlad King ceased their arguments. As they filled out of the gym and headed towards the dorms, All Might called out "Young Midoriya, can we speak with you for a moment?"

Izuku and the rest turned to see All Might, Gran Torino, Recovery Girl, Aizawa, and Nezu standing by waiting for him. Izuku turned to his fellow classmates and said "You guys go on ahead to the dorms. Tell Eri and Kota that I had to stay behind for a while, but I'll be back."

The guys nodded and proceeded to walk back to the dorms, while the girls of Class-1A, Mei, and Nejire were hesitant at first before nodding and walked away as well.

As Izuku and the teachers walked towards the U.A. main building, they were unaware of a certain green haired teen, trailing behind them in tiny split and hidden pieces.


AAAAAAANNNNNNNDDDDD SCENE! Oh Boy I can just feel the hate comments coming my way.

Ok first off, let me explain before people start crucifying me for my choices. First off, as I have said time and time again, this story will be More than a simple reaction story and will have some actual plot and story to it, and what I have done with Izuku this chapter will be explained and reacted to next chapter.

Speaking of which, next chapter is an interlude chapter or rather a break from the reaction towards Death Battle and focusing more on the plot of the story and of what's to come. It Does NOT mean that this end of the story and they won't watch anymore videos, they still will but they will only react to a certain amount before they take a break for the day and continue another time. So don't worry this story will still continue to react to Death Battle.

Plus next chapter you guys can finally find out why the girls of Class-1A, along with Nejire, and Mei like Izuku and remember that to Each their Own, this is MY Story and I will have the pairings be with whomever I choose and you can either deal with it and accept or leave, no one and nothing is stopping you from doing either.

And finally, the reasons behind the counterparts. Going into more details of what was said in the story, Izuku's connection towards the two fighters were because of his past with Bakugou, they were friends, the best of friends actually, before Bakugou got his Quirk, became consumed in his arrogance, the praise of others, and became a douche, while Izuku didn't get a Quirk and as such the two's childhood friendship crumbled into a bullying relationship, like imagine you and your best friend made a pact to stay friends until later on when they broke their promise and want nothing to do with you, that can be interpreted as a betrayal because they broke their promise and your trust.

And so that similar betrayal, not to mention Bakugou's 11 years of bullying and Suicide baiting, pairs up well with Kratos's and Spawn's betrayals. Hell, you can even go into a dark route and say that Spawn and Kratos were the Izuku's who actually Attempted Suicide, since the two fighters have done it before.

Also, Izuku and the two fighters also share similarities of being the main characters of their franchises, multiple powers/Quirks at their disposal, Izuku's Black Whip can be compared towards Kratos's own Blades and Chains of Hades and Spawn's Leetha suit that is basically like a Symbiote and chains, Izuku's super strength and speed can be easily compared towards Kratos and Spawn's own strength and speed, and Izuku's future Quirk of Float, spoilers, can be comparable towards Kratos's Wings of Icarus Spawn's Levitation. Obviously, Izuku doesn't have as many powers as the two Titans of death and destruction, but he is technically the only Hero of the series with the most Quirks inside of him, with the only ones that surpass him being the Villains, including Shigaraki, AFO, Gigantomachia, and the Nomus.

As for the other additional counterparts, hope you guys like that little inclusion, if Izuku is Kratos then it would be obvious, even though it hurts to write it, to have Uraraka as Kratos's/Izuku's wife and Eri as their daughter. Endeavor as Ares since they both sport fiery beards and are assholes, Shigaraki as Malbogia because they ave the same hair, sort of, and the two are evil demons in their rights, Zeus as All Might because Zeus is Kratos's father and All Might is Izuku's father figure, and it seemed like a nice little tease of an evil All Might in the multiverse.

Phew, that was a lot said, so I will end on that. As always, hope you guys liked the chapter, what is happening with Izuku, who was the cosmic intervention, what was Hound Dog smelling and who was following Izuku and the teachers? Please leave your thoughts and opinions in the reviews, check out my other stories if you like, and keep each other safe and healthy. P.S. Yes, I am alive and well, thank you for the support and care.

This has been Zayden StormVoid and I will see you all in the next chapter! Excelsior!
