PLUS ULTRAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
"I AM HEEEEEEREEEEE!" All Might's booming laugh rang out loudly while a bewildered Izuku stood behind him, looking around in confusion.
"A-All Might...? What's going on?" She looked up at the camera's pointed in their direction, then down at the yellow PLUS ULTRA t-shirt she wore, that some how a massive All Might was wearing as well. "I-I could have sworn we were making a break through in our training with One for All... Where are we...?"
"THATS RIGHT, WE WERE!" All Might's laugh continued to boom through the small studio, and Izuku blinked in confusion once again as she looked up at her Hero. "I can't wait to find out what's going to happen next, RIGHT?!" HE looked to the camera and gave it a thumbs up. Izuku felt her head continue to spin at the scenario, not sure what to think about everything that was going on. "But why don't we forget about that for now?"
"Wh-why?!" Izuku asked with her mouth falling open. "We were making a lot of progress!"
"YES WE WERE! BUT YOU KNOW..." All Might turned to the camera again, and his smile got wider. "WE HAVE TO SAVE PEOPLE, RIGHT?! WITH LOOOOOOOVE!"
"L-L-LOVE?!" Izuku cried out and clapped her hands to the side of her head. "B-but WHY?!"
"I understand your strong feelings for Young Bakugou..." All Might coughed into his fist as Izuku looked around the room in a confused panic now. "BUT YOU'RE REALLY NOT GOOD AT THIS!"
"A-All Might..." Izuku looked to her hero for help, but he was turned to the camera again.
"YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE FUN WHILE YOU CAN! DO NOT WASTE YOUR YOUTH!" He laughed and Izuku felt a nervous sweat drip down her cheek at the familiar phrase he used. "GO BEYOND EXISTING PROCEDURE! PLUS ULTRA!"
"... I-I'm not sure I follow..." Izuku said with a sigh as she leaned on the table she was standing behind. "This makes absolutely no sense... Where did this studio come from... How are we wearing the same t-shirt...? I don't mind of course, but this is absolutely insane... Is this some villain's quirk? Did we get trapped in here?! IS THIS SOME KIND OF SAW MOVIE SCENERIO?! A-A-ALL MI-!"
"DO NOT WORRY!" All Might whipped around to look at her, and patted her head gently with his large hand. "This is not a villain's quirk! This chapter of PLUS ULTRA! THE GIRL WHO BECAME A HERO is a special story! WE WILL BE BRINGING YOU..." All Might turned to the camera again, his grin bigger than ever, "SAVE THE WORLD WITH LOVE! NOW LET'S GET-"
"B-but I'm already in love..." Izuku stuttered out with a frown. "I have Kacchan, and we're supposed to go on a romantic Hot Springs trip together really so-"
"LETS START THE CHAPTER!" All Might boomed out with a laugh.
"H-HOLD ON! We just had a flash back chapter!" Izuku protested, and clenched her fists tightly. "Wont the readers get annoyed?! I'm sure they expected something new and exciting!"
"LET'S START THE CHAPTER!" All Might repeated with the same laugh from before, but Izuku could see a nervous sweat on his cheek.
"A-ALL MIGHT! I understand you're excited but this is another story from before Kacchan and I started dating!" Izuku cried out and put her hands on the table. "The readers will definitely be disappointed!"
"Young Izuku..." All Might coughed into his fist, his back still turned to her.
"... Y-Yes...?" Izuku felt a nervous sweat roll down her own cheek now. She was worried she upset All Might a bit, before he turned to her, his fingers in a V pose on his forehead as he smiled.
"DO NOT WORRY ABOUT OTHER'S OPINIONS!" He laughed out loudly, and Izuku stumbled back a bit.
"B-But I want to be the Symbol of Peace one day!" Izuku cried out, and looked to the cameras in the room. "I can't be that if no one likes me! The title isn't a real one, it's one that's given!" She turned to All Might again, "And only the people can award that title, right?!"
"LET'S START THE CHAPTER!" All Might laughed loudly again, and put his fists on his hips.
"A-ALL MIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!" Izuku cried out, before he grabbed her flailing fist, before lifting up into the air for her, while raising his own.
"SAY IT WITH US NOW!" All Might shouted out, "PLUS ULTRAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
-Last day of Classes, before the Summer Training Camp-
"Oh... The Special about All Might is on." Izuku smiled as she entered the kitchen, wearing her summer uniform. She took a seat at the table where her mother had put her breakfast, and she turned her head to look at the small kitchen TV they had.
"I know you're recording it, but I figured you might like to watch it before class today." Inko said happily as she lay more toast on the table, before taking her own seat. "My... He sure was handsome when he was young." The two women watched a young laughing All Might on their small TV, and Izuku smiled warmly at the screen.
"How did the Symbol of Peace, All Might, become the Number One Hero? To find out, we look back on his times tudying abroad in America!"
"He studied in America?" Inko asked curiously as she munched on her Toast, and Izuku turned to her mother and nodded her head.
"Of course!" The young green haired hero said excitedly as she scooped some egg onto her toast. "A lot of people agree that it was his True Debut as a Hero! See that?" Izuku pointed to the screen as a Young All Might jumped out of some flames and smoke, "It's his costume from the Young Age! A famous scientist made it, his name is-"
"David Shield!" The TV interrupted Izuku, and showed the image of a young man driving a red car with a smile on his face, and a Young All Might in the passenger seat. "While abroad, All Might was supported by the Professor while they both attended school. Widely known as the exclusive designer and maker of All Might's Iconic costumes through out the years, the two were also known as very close friends!"
"Oh my, That famous professor from America, right?" Inko asked as both the Midoriya women continued to watch the TV.
"Yeah!" Izuku grinned brightly, and turned to continue eating her breakfast. "He's made many amazing support items for a lot of Famous heroes, not just All Might! He also won the Nobel Quirk Prize!"
"Wow," Inko smiled at her daughter, who looked up at her curiously, "All Might has such an amazing friend? I guess those who are at the top, draw others from the same level."
"Y-Yeah..." Izuku laughed a bit nervously as she looked down at her phone. "Oh! I've got to go now!" Izuku stood up quickly from her chair and pushed it in before grabbing her phone and bag. "I'll see you later tonight!"
"Have fun at your special classes! Don't come home with more scars or injuries!" Inko called out, and Izuku laughed a little as she touched the bandages around her neck. She ran out the door and managed to catch her train just on time. It wasn't as crowded as usual, and Izuku looked up at scenery that flew past the windows while she made her commute to school. It was as humid and hot summer day, and her fingers went up to the bandages on her neck once again. It had only been a few days since her incident at the mall with Shigaraki, and a little over a week since her final Exam with All Might and Katsuki. She let out a heavy sigh as she remembered she still hadn't gotten a chance to talk to Katsuki about everything, her feelings, her fears and anxieties... The Summer Training camp was fast approaching in a week and she was running out of time. She glanced at her phone and flicked through the messages she had... She felt a warm smile creep up on her lips as she looked at the last one she got from Katsuki...
Good Night.
"AHAHAHA!" Izuku let out a loud nervous laugh as her face turned red and her heart pounded loudly in her chest. She quickly clapped her hand over her mouth, and looked over at the other passengers before bowing to them apologetically.
When the train arrived at her stop, she hurriedly got off and ran towards the school gates. The school was quiet, because the classes today were elective. She scratched her cheek nervously as she walked down the hallway, before opening up the door to her class room.
"Morning every-" She paused as she saw only four familiar faces in the room. "... One..." She laughed a bit as Uraraka got up from her seat, smiling brightly. "Only five of us today?"
"Looks like it," Asui croaked out as she walked over to Izuku with Uraraka, smiling brightly.
"I'm glad to see that at least some of us are diligent in learning!" Iida called out as he came over to greet Izuku as well.
"Well, my apartment doesn't have air conditioning," Uraraka laughed out nervously, "But the school does, so I decided to come!"
"Ochachan..." Izuku laughed a bit, before Todoroki approached casually. "Todoroki, you too?"
"My house is also unfortunately hot." The boy sighed out, and the others looked at him in confusion.
"But you're rich, why don't you just use your air conditioning?" Uraraka asked curiously, and Todoroki let out a sigh.
"Because that stupid Fire Ball of a father over heated it with his beard." Todoroki rubbed the back of his head, looking to the side. Izuku clapped her hands over her mouth to hold back the laughter that wanted to escape. "Even on his days off he keeps the damn thing flaming, and I just had enough of it. Besides..." Todoroki glanced over at Izuku who was having a hard time containing her giggles with Uraraka and Asui. "... Coming to school isn't so bad, when your friends are here..."
"FRIENDS OR NOT, WE MUST STUDY DILIGENTLY!" Iida called out with his hand in the air. "Even if these are extra classes we all agreed to take, instead of taking a free day off, we must still put our all into it!"
"Could you put your ass in your seat, instead of blocking the entrance?!" Izuku froze a bit, her heart almost jumping out of her throat as she heard Katsuki's voice behind her. Her head whipped around and she looked up at a very angry looking Katsuki who had his bag slung over his shoulder. "And you, what did I say about leaving your house with out me?!" HE snapped at her, and she shied away from him, looking anywhere but at his burning gaze.
"I-I didn't think you'd want to take an extra lesson...!" Izuku cried out, and held up her hands in defense as Katsuki stormed towards her. She backed up away from him, smiling nervously as he bared down on her. "Technically today's a break, and you usualy play video games!"
"I'm also aiming to be the number one Hero!" The blonde snapped at her, and Izuku tensed up a bit, feeling her heart pound as he looked into her eyes. "If there's gunna be extra lessons, I'm gunna take them all and beat all of you losers to the top!" HE looked over at the rest in the room. Uraraka and Asui were both giggling with their hands over their mouths, while Todoroki and Iida shook their heards at Katsuki's behavior. "What the fuck are you extra's laughing about?!" HE snapped, before the door slid open.
"I get that it's not a formal class..." The teacher sighed out, as everyone turned to look at him. "But this is still a class. I expect you to be in your seats before I come in."
"S-Sorry Sensei!" Izuku cried out, as everyone hurried to take their seats. She looked over at the others, before turning her head to look at the back of Katsukis. She saw he had his arms crossed, and she blushed a bit as she looked down at her books on her desk, trying to collect her self.
"We're running this course multiple times..." Aizawa sighed out as he looked down at his notes on the podium. "We'll be holding it multiple times, but it's good to see that you lot showed up at least. Perhaps the others will follow suit later on." He sighed out, and Izuku felt a nervous sweat drip down her cheek. "Just so you know, this will be harder than your regular classes, Prepare yourselves."
"In this class, you will fight and capture a hypothetical Villain." Aizawa continued and slipped to the next couple of pages in his notes.
"A really hero like class!" Izuku said with a bright smile, hoping to ease some of the tension that fell upon her shoulders. Uraraka thrusted her fist into the air, and grinned brightly.
"I'm so excited! I thought it was going to be like a first aid course or something!" The brunette laughed happily, before the cold piercing gaze of their teacher quieted them both.
"Though first aid is important, it should be obvious this is a hero class." Aizawa said coolly, and Izuku felt a chill in her skin from the cold tone. "Villains commit many different types of crimes, You will go to the scene of the crime, and determine what happened there... Whether or not it was caused by a villain, or if you should even fight... This class is to train your ability to asses the situation and if you can deal with the circumstances or not. Your special instructors will be..."
"I AM HERE, COMING THROUGH THE BACK DOOR!" Izuku whipped her head around as the door at the back of the class banged open, and All Might stood in his hero form, with his arms flexed in his signature pose. She looked to a bewildered Todoroki who looked unsettle by the sudden appearance of the hero who stood a few inches from him, clearly shocked by what happened.
"All Might...!" Izuku grinned brightly as she sat on her knees in her chair.
"You're really muscular today too! Muscle!" Uraraka said with a bright smile as she clapped her hands excitedly. The hero laughed proudly as he flexed, before Aizawa cleared his throat to gain the attention of the class once again.
"It's not just All Might, today." He sighed out and Izuku turned back around to see Presnt Mic, Midnight and Cementoss standing next to their teacher at the front of the room. "These three will also be participating as special instructors in today's lesson. Now let us begin the Training, everyone get changed and meet at Ground Beta."
"I'm so excited!" Uraraka cheered out with vigor as the girls finished getting changed into their hero costumes in the locker room.
"I wonder what we'll be doing." Asui said with a Kero as she pulled her goggles onto her head.
"Knowing Yuuei, it's going to be something great!" Izuku said with a grin at the others as she pulled her gloves on.
"So have you talked to him yet?" Uraraka asked with a bright smile, and Izuku felt her whole face turn red as she looked at her best friend. "About your feelings?"
"O-O-OCHACHAN!" Izuku cried out, her arms flailing around in a panic.
"So she finally realized them?" Asui asked Uraraka with a smile, and the brunette nodded her head.
"We had a very touching moment over Ice cream, and I held her gently as she cried tears of sorrow over that annoying Bakugou." Uraraka sighed out happily, clapping her hands over her own pink cheeks. "I only wish I was on the receiving end of her feelings, because I definitely wouldn't let her suffer like this."
"Ochachan! Tsuyuchan!" Izuku cried out in a panic as both girls smiled over at Izuku. "I-I just haven't had time to be alone with him or anything! There was the summer homework that I wanted to finish quickly, then getting ready for the Trainging camp along with these extra lessons, I honestly haven't had time to talk to him properly yet about anything!"
"You could have talked on your commute to school this morning," Asui said with a Kero and Izuku felt her face get warmer in embarrassment.
"Yeah, something about how you're not supposed to go anywhere with out him, right?" Uraraka grinned brightly over at Izuku who clapped her hands over her reddening face. "So protective, like when we were at the mall... He's really a brute, but I admit he actually cares about your well being, you know?"
"You guys... We should be focusing on studying! Studying!" Izuku cried out, trying to change the topic.
"Okay, Iida-kun Junior," The girls both smiled at Izuku who let out another groan, before they left the locker room to head to the training ground.
"... O-Okay..." Izuku looked to the others as they stood in a shady alleyway, dressed in their Hero costumes and ready for battle. She looked to Katsuki who was staring at her with his intense ruby red eyes, and she nervously looked away, and pointed to the entrance of the alley. "The lesson has started, so lets take a look." She hurried over to the corner of the building, and slowly poked her head around the corner, "I see Cardboard cutouts of the police..."
"This must be where the crime scene is..." Izuku looked up at Asui, who looked up at Uraraka, who then looked up at Iida as the four of them looked around the corner.
"I will tell you the situation at the crime scene," Aizawa sighed out from behind the group, and the four at the corner of the building glanced back at him, while Todoroki crossed his arms as he stood casualy next to Katsuki. "There has been a villain attack at a jewelry store, The employees and customers have been taken hostage and everyone is barricaded inside. The number of Villains and Hostages is unknown, so you all have been asked by the police as Pro Heroes to come and resolve the incident."
"Aizawa Sensei!" Izuku looked up at Iida as he stood straight and raised his hand, while the girls remained hunched over at the corner of the building. "The Teachers inside the store playing the rolls of Hostages and Villa-"
"I will not be answering any questions." Aizawa cut Iida off sharply, and Izuku felt a nervous sweat drip down her cheek as she looked to their sensei. "Verify the situation yourselves and resolve the case."
"Yes sir!" Izuku stood up with the others and nodded her head, before she looked to the rest of their group.
"Good, now..." Aizawa crossed his arms and sighed. "Let the capture training begin!"
Izuku crouched back down at the corner of the building with the others as the starting horn blared after their sensei left.
"Now... What should we do...?" Iida asked from above, and Izuku tapped her fist to her mouth as she thought things over.
"First..." She spoke up, and the other three looked down at her curiously. "We need to see how many villains and hostages there are..."
"Uraraka..." The four at the corner turned around, at the unexpected sound of Katsuki's voice, and Izuku blinked in confusion as she saw him scratching his blonde hair. "You go."
"... By myself...?" Izuku looked up at Uraraka, who looked just as shocked by the sudden suggestion from Katsuki.
"If we all stream in, the villains will notice," Katsuki grunted out, and put his hands on his hips as he narrowed his eyes at Uraraka. "You can just look inside through that window," He raised one of his hands and pointed at the target building.
"A surprising plan from the villain of the group..." Uraraka said with a thought, and Katsuki snapped his head around to glare at her. "But I'll do it,"
"Isn't it dangerous...?" Asui asked curiously as both her and Izuku stood up from their crouched positions.
"... Then we should distract the villains..." Todoroki spoke next, and Izuku was sure they were at their limit for surprises for the day. He pulled out his phone and began dialing on it. He held it up to his ear, and Izuku held her breath as the group heard the dial tone before a gruff familiar voice answered.
"Whose this, the police?"
"All Might is playing a villain..." Todoroki said spoke to the others, as he put his hand over the mouth piece. He promptly hit the speaker phone button on his phone, and the rest of the group all held their breath as well, before Todoroki pulled his hand away from the mouth piece, "I'm a Pro Hero. You're the culprit, aren't you?"
"I wonder about that." All Might's voice had an uncharacteristic tone of villainy to it, and Izuku quickly turned to Uraraka as Todoroki continued with his conversation.
"Tell us how many villains on your right hand..." Izuku whispered out to her friend, who nodded her head, "And how many hostages on your left..."
"Got it..." Uraraka whispered back, and grinned before she turned towards the exit of the alley they were hiding in. Izuku watched her friend nervously, as Todoroki kept the conversation with All Might going on the phone, while Uraraka activated her quirk on herself, Izuku quickly gave her a gently nudge towards the building, and watched her friend tuck her limbs in as she floated upwards towards the window at the top of the store. Izuku waited with bated breath as she saw Uraraka look inside, before turning around to hold up her hands.
"One Villain... Three hostages..." Izuku whispered out to the others. Iida came up deside her and began moving his hands around wildly.
"Uraraka...!" HE whispered rather loudly, and Todoroki held his fingers over the mouth piece of his phone while the Villain All Might continued to speak. "Stand by there...!" Iida waved his hands in a staying motion. Izuku looked up at her friend on the building, who gave them the okay sign, before Izuku saw movement at the door to the store.
"Hide...!" Izuku whispered out, and pushed the others back behind the corner. She nervously hid at the edge, keeping a trained eye on the door as she kept to the shadows. "It's All Migh- I mean... The Villain." She looked to Todoroki as they heard a click on his phone and a dial tone. She looked back to the building as Todoroki came up beside her and got close so he too could take a look.
"He's checking to see if we've left..." He whispered out, and Izuku could felt the warmth from his left side against her right shoulder.
"We need to stay well hidden..." Asui said from their feet as she crouched down in the shadows, and Izuku nodded her head. "If he sees us, the hostages will be in danger..."
"Then what should we do...?" Iida asked as he gathered near the corner, and Izuku frowned and turned to look at the others. She jumped a bit as she saw Todoroki's face close to her own, and he looked at her curiously.
"Should we go around to the back...?" Todoroki asked, looking to Izuku, before turning to look at the others. "We could infiltrate from their, make a surprise attack..." He looked back to Izuku, and she felt a nervous sweat on her cheek again as he leaned in closer.
"TSK!" The group jumped a bit as they turned to look over at Katsuki who stood up from his own crouch further in the alleyway. "This is stupid!"
"K-Kacchan...! sssh...!" Izuku held her finger up to her lips.
"Bakugou, don't tell me-?!" Iida began, and Todoroki stood up straight, sending an icy glare Katsuki's way.
"You're planning on charging straight in?" Todoroki asked, and Katsuki glared at him darkly. Izuku frowned at her childhood friend as he clenched his fists.
"Of course, idiot!" He snapped angrily, and Izuku saw his eyes flick to glare at her shoulder. She looked down at Todoroki's hand that was there, then back up at Katsuki who was looking the other boy in the eyes now. "While I'm firing off explosions at that damn villain, you guys go save the hostages or some shit!" He stormed towards them, and pushed his way through between Izuku and Todoroki. She looked up at Katsuki with wide eyes as he glared towards the store the lesson was taking place in.
"You're being too ambitious, Bakugou!" Asui called out as she stepped up beside Izuku.
"What are you saying?" Katsuki growled out, and Izuku saw his intense stare was definitely locked on something inside the store. "This is our chance, while he's by that window!" Izuku looked down at his clenched fists as they opened with a snap and began to crackle.
"Kacchan...!" Izuku move to stop him, but was too late. He blasted out from the alleyway and towards the store front with a bang.
"... OF course he would..." Todoroki sighed out as the others watched Katsuki in disbelief for a brief moment.
"We have no choice but to go, too!" Iida shouted as he took off running with the others towards the store front. Izuku glanced to the glass doors of the store, and her eyes widened in surprise.
"Th-the villain is gone...!" Izuku called out as Katsuki crashed towards the doors.
"DAMN IT! I WONT LET YOU HAVE THE HOSTAGES!" He shouted in a rage before crashing through the front doors with a blast from his hands.
"Everyone, hurry!" Iida called out as the group jumped up the concrete steps after Katsuki. Smoke filled the entrance, and Izuku pushed past the others to see a confused Katsuki standing still, and staring at the ground.
"Kacchan...?" Izuku frowned at him, before her eyes glanced towards where he was looking. They widened in surprise and horror as they landed on a bloodied knife next to the large form of All Might on the ground among some broken glass and blood, and obvious stab wound in his chest as he lay still among the wreckage. "wh-why...?" Izuku murmured out, and her fingers trembled a bit. "A-All... Th-the Villain..." She raised her hand to her mouth, and felt a chill down her spine for a brief moment at the sight of one of her worst fears. "... Is dead...?" She knew it was fake, but the realism had her shaken more than she cared to admit. She felt a cool hand touch her shoulder and her head snapped to look back at Todoroki who looked calm.
'That's right...' Izuku's thoughts rang through her head, as she put her hand over her chest to try and calm her rapid heart beat. 'This is just a lesson, it's not real...' She took a calming breath as Asui walked over to All Might, and leaned over him. Izuku glanced up at Katsuki who looked back at her with his piercing ruby eyes, and she smiled at him reassuringly before they heard All Might trying his best not to make a sound as Asui tickled his nose with her hair.
"He's not actually dead, but it looks like he's supposed to be..." Asui said with a kero as she pulled her hair back from the hero's nose.
"Did he die from Explodo Idiot's entrance?" Uraraka called out as she jumped in through the window and landed next to Izuku.
"Tch, it wasn't that strong!" Katsuki snapped, and clenched his fists. "Anyway, weren't you watching from up there?!" HE turned to look at Uraraka, glaring at her in irritation.
"I couldn't see anything because of the smoke from the explosion!" She pouted as she crossed her arms.
"Tch..." Katsuki clicked his tongue once again and turned away from them.
"The Murder weapon is this knife covered in blood..." Izuku looked over at Todoroki as he wander towards the weapon and looked down at it curiously.
"The scene of the crime was surrounded by the police..." Iida looked out at the fallen cardboard cut outs, and crossed his arms. "So if we assume that no one went in or out... The the one who murdered the Villain... Is among the hostages." The group turned to look at the tied up Cementoss, Midnight and Present Mic that were in different parts of the store.
"Wait, Iida..." Izuku spoke up and everyone turned to look at her, "It's too soon to decide something like that..." She looked at All Might who still had not moved, then around at the hostages. "Lets listen to what they have to say first."
"Izuchan is right." Asui stood up fully and nodded her head, "We need to know what happened at the scene."
"I am an Employee of this Jewelry Store." Cementoss was the first one they started their questions with after untying the 'hostages'. "I was threatened by the Villain who suddenly appeared and after I gave him the jewels, he tied my up with a rope." Izuku tapped her fist to her mouth as she paid close attention to his words, before they moved on to Midnight.
"I came to buy some accessories, but when I came in the villain was here." She looked up at the group seriously and Izuku nodded her head, noting the appearance of a business woman she was wearing. "He caught me when I was still too surprised to do anything."
"YO!" The group paled a bit as they moved on to Present Mic who was dressed in what they all assumed was his own casual clothing from home. "I came to find an engagement ring, yo!" The group paled at his rapping tone of voice as he struck a wild pose. "For my girl you know! Then the villain appeared! He hit me with a lasso, and I was knocked out, YO!"
"... When the villain came..." Todoroki coughed into his fist, to try and keep his composure as he looked over at Cementoss. "was he inside the store..?"
"Yes, he was." The teacher playing Jewelry store owner nodded his head, "He was knocked unconcious and didn't wake up for a while."
"When you came in the store..." Todoroki looked to Midnight next, and crossed his arms. "Were the two of them here?"
"I didn't look right when I came in..." Midnight looked away from Todoroki, and Izuku frowned a bit as she tapped her fist to her chin in thought again. The older woman turned to look back at him as she continued with her information. "But when he was tying me up, I saw the two of them had been made to sit in different parts of the store."
"Hmm." Todoroki touched his own fist to his mouth in thought. "There aren't any discrepancies in what they're saying."
"Wait..." Izuku looked up, and stepped forwards towards the hostages. "Pardon me, but may we see inside your wallets?" The group of young heroes gathered the wallets from the hostages, and Izuku examined the inside of Present Mic's curiously. "... How's it look...?" She glanced over at Uraraka who was examining Midnight's.
"There are a bunch of credit cards..." Uraraka looked up at Izuku, who glanced back down into Present Mic's wallet.
"His is full as well..." She showed the others the contents as she examined it. "They both had enough funds to buy jewelry."
"The damn villain was killed," Katsuki snapped angrily, and Izuku could tell he was getting impaitent from his tone of irritation while he stormed towards the hostages. "The culprit is one of them!"
"And the motive...?" Todoroki interrupted.
"HAH?!" Katsuki rounded on Todoroki almost instantly and was only inches away in a split second. "The stolen Jewelry, of course!"
"Even if that were the case, wasn't it a little too reckless to kill the villain right here...?" Asui asked curiously. "They'd be obvious suspects."
"Besides..." Todoroki glanced at Katsuki with his icy stare, "The villain was holding the jewelry, No one took them."
"If the motive was theft, then..." Asui continued with the train of thoughts everyone seemed to be having.
"Maybe some kind of internal conflict...?" Uraraka added curiously.
"... If there were two Villains..." The room looked at Izuku as she spoke up, and raised her head to look at the others. "And during the attack they argued over how to split the loot or something, maybe in retaliation-"
"If that's the case," Asui turned to look at the hostages. "Then the hostages should've heard their conversation."
"I didn't hear anything like that, yo!" Present Mic called out enthusiastically.
"I didn't either!" Cementoss called out hurriedly.
"Me, neither!" Midnight added as she stepped forwards.
"Was the Villain alone?" Todoroki asked coolly.
"Yes," Cementoss nodded his head, before the group turned to look at the door that opened, as Iida reentered the room.
"I looked in every corner of the store," Iida sighed out as he crossed his arms in thought. "But there are no back exits, and all the windows were closed. There's no doubt he was acting alone..."
"Then the culprit must be here-" Uraraka turned to look at the hostages.
"I didn't do it!" Midnight cried out, a nervous sweat on her cheek.
"I didn't either!" Cementoss called out, clenching his large cement fist.
"It wasn't me, yo!" Present mic sounded desperate in his plea of innocence, "I swear, yo!"
"... Wouldn't it be best to tell the police the situation and leave it to them...?" Asui asked the group and Izuku touched her fist to her mouth in though once again.
"You have a point..." Iida sighed out as he crossed his arms once more.
"But it's frustrating, since we know the culprit is here..." Uraraka sighed out as she put her hands on her hips.
"Then..." Katsuki growled out as his palms crackled with explosions and the hostages stepped back in shock. "WE SHOULD JUST MAKE THEM CONFESS!" HE shouted angrily as he glared at the teachers.
"Bakugou! Stop that!" Todoroki snapped.
"If you do that, then the police will arrest you!" Asui called out in a panic.
"Let them..." Uraraka sighed out as she shook her head.
"TCH! I KNOW ALL THAT!" Katsuki snapped loudly in anger, and the others groaned in frustration, before the small explosions stopped. They looked to Katsuki as he stared intently at Izuku who look lost in thought. "... Izu..." He called out, "You have thoughts on this... don't you?"
"Ah..." Izuku looked up at the others as she came out of her thoughts, and she blushed a bit as she lowered her hand from her mouth. "... Yeah... Somethings been bothering me..."
"What is it...?" Todoroki asked her curiously as the others gathered near her.
"... Why did the Villain barricade himself in the Jewelry store...?" She looked to the others, who seemed a little confused by her question. "If he was after the Jewelry," She glanced down at the broken glass case and the bag of jewels the villain had tried to take. "Then he should've just escaped right after he stole them... So why...?" She brought her hand up, and scratched her cheek in thought.
"That's because..." Cementoss spoke up, and Izuku looked to the teacher playing hostage. "While I was putting the jewelry into the bag like he ordered me to, the police arrived."
"Did you call them...?" Uraraka asked curiously.
"No, it wasn't me.." Cementoss shook his head solemnly.
"Someone from outside the store saw it and called the police..." Iida spoke up next and Izuku raised her head, her thoughts clicking into place.
"If that's the case..." The green haired hero-to-be stepped towards the hostages, and looked seriously at them, before turning her gaze on one in particular. "Then the one who called them... Midnight." The group looked at Izuku in shock, "It was you, wasn't it?"
"M-Me...?" The woman looked shocked, a nervous sweat on her cheek as she touched the top of her chest.
"Because you were the only one to come in after the villain entered." Izuku continued as she stopped a few feet away from Midnight.
"Wait a minute, Midoriya...!" Iida called out from behind her, but she kept her emerald eyes on Midnight.
"How is that possible?" Katsuki growled out in annoyance as he glanced at Izuku, but she didn't look away from her prime suspect. "Why would the person who called the police come inside to get caught on purpose?!"
"Its because..." Izuku clenched her fists, and felt a stinging pain in her chest as she looked at Midnight who lowered her gaze to the floor. "I think that's the reason why he barricaded himself in..." She heard the collective intake of breaths from the others behind her, but Izuku didn't waver. "Midnight... You knew the villain before this, didn't you? On top of that, you knew that he committed crimes. Knowing ahead of time that he was going to rob a jewelry store, you called the police right after he attacked and then... Before the police arrived... You entered the jewelry store yourself. The villain..." Izuku spared a glance at the ground, before she gathered herself and raised her head high. "He was shaken to see an acquaintance appear, but he also understood your real intention. Even so... The villain continued the robbery... Tying you up... while he was doing that, the police arrived and he was forced to barricade himself inside." Izuku kept her accusatory glance on Midnight, who seemed visibly shaken by Izuku's words.
"Wh-why would I need to do a thing like that-?!" Midnight cried out, clutching the front of her jacket.
"Isn't it because you wanted to stop him?" Izuku asked simply, keeping her gaze firm. "The Villain... No matter how many times you tried to convince him to stop, he wouldn't..." Izuku felt her chest ache with pain again for the woman, "That's why you acted in a way to get the villain caught by the police..."
"Wait, Izuchan...!" Uraraka called out. "Even if things happened the way you said, why was the villain killed?"
"She just wanted to stop the villain, right...?" Todoroki asked curiously as they glanced at the body on the ground.
"Yeah, that's right." Iida nodded his head, "She doesn't have a motive to kill him..."
"Yeah," Izuku hadn't moved an inch, and the others looked at her as she continued to stare down Midnight, tears gathering in her eyes. "She has no motive. That's why the murderer..." Izuku clenched her fists tightly and looked away from Midnight, before turning her body to face away from her. "... Isn't among them..."
"... What do you mean, Izuchan...?" Uraraka looked to her sorrowful best friend, who was doing her best to hold back her tears. She could tell that Izuku had come to a conclusion, and that it was going to be painful information to hear...
"You don't mean..." Asui murmured out.
"... Suicide...?" Todoroki asked out loud, and the group looked at Izuku curiously as she lifted her head again and looked back at Midnight.
"Most likely," She clenched her fists again as she stared the woman down. "After figuring out Midnight's intention, He still thought to escape. But because we, Pro Heroes, came to the scene..."
"... He resigned himself to his fate, and committed suicide...?" Iida asked in confusion.
"That's not it." Izuku called out, ".. This is what the villain was thinking..." She brought her hand up to her cheek and rubbed her tears away. "If I get caught, then my relationship with Midnight might be exposed..." She looked All Might who was still laying on the ground in the pool of fake blood. "If that happened, then a dark shadow would fall over her life..." Izuku felt her chest ache with pain, as she felt a familiar stare on the side of her head coming from Katsuki. "Thats why the Villain... Sealed his mouth with his own hands..." Izuku clenched the front of her hero costume over her heart. "Midnight didn't tell us the truth... because she realized what he was thinking as he gave up his life for her..." Izuku heard a loud cry of anguish and sorrow from Midnight as she collapsed to the ground. Izuku felt her heart ache again. "... That's why she didn't say anything..."
"So then..." Uraraka stepped forwards as Izuku closed her eyes, trying to collect her own emotions. "... Were Midnight and the Villain...?" Izuku nodded her head at the silent question, while Midnight continued to cry in sorrow on the ground.
"That's... So sad..." Asui had her own tears in her eyes as she bowed her head. "Midnight was trying to save the villain... Because she loved him..."
"And the Villain..." Iida adjusted his glasses to try and hide his own small tears. "Was trying to save Midnight... because he loved her..."
"For that to end like this..." Todoroki spoke up, his own tone grim because of the situation. "... How Ironic..."
"This is most likely the truth..." Izuku sighed out as she raised her head, "Behind the villain jewelry store attack..."
"Are you kidding me?" Katsuki snapped angrily, and Izuku looked over at him. "Killing yourself like that... Whats the point?" He looked away from the others, and Izuku watched him curiously as everyone else kept their heads bowed. "There was definitely another way out from this. Suicide is selfish, he had no thoughts for her or her love for him, he only thought about himself!"
"Kacchan..." Izuku frowned over at him, but when he snapped his head around to look at her, she saw a serious look in his eyes that made her pause.
"If he truly loved her, he wouldn't have abandoned her like that." He grunted out in a rather calm tone by his standards. "He should have just surrendered, and worked hard to become a better man for her. This..." He turned away, and Izuku felt her heart pound in her chest. "Is a cowards way out... There's no way he loved her truly, if he took the easy way out."
"Hey now, this is a tragic love story!" Uraraka called out in frustration.
"THE ONLY TRAGEDY IS THAT IT WASN'T REAL LOVE!" Katsuki snapped loudly in anger. "KEEPING SECRETS FROM HER, AND CONTINUING TO DO THINGS THAT HE KNEW WOULD HURT HER," Izuku felt her heart tighten as a nervous sweat rolled down her cheek. "THAT'S NOT LOVE!"
"... An unexpected valid opinion from an unexpected person," Asui said with a kero, and Katsuki slammed his fist down on a glass jewelry case, and shattered it.
"Alright, that's it." Aizawa called out from the entrance as he stepped inside.
"OOOH!" Midnight stood up from the ground, smiling brightly as she clapped her hands to her cheeks. "That was so fun!"
'SHE'S BACK TO HERSELF ALREADY?!' Izuku paled as she looked at Midnight who had been crying sorrowfully for the last ten minutes.
"Thanks you three, you can go back now." Aizawa glanced at the other teacher coldly as he approached his students. The teachers left, chatting away about their acting, as the students grouped up to speak with their sensei. "Midoriya..." Izuku looked up at their sensei as he singled her out, and she nodded her head. "Your deductions were exactly the same as the scenario we prepared for this."
"Eh...?" Izuku was a bit shocked to hear that, and Uraraka smiled at her proudly from the side.
"The villain cut himself with his own knife," Aizawa continued, and let out a sigh. "Good job getting all the way here from wondering why the villain barricaded himself."
"Sensei is praising you!" Uraraka beamed warmly at Izuku.
"Good job, Midoriya!" Iida smiled at her brightly as well, and Izuku blushed a bright red as she looked from the others, muttering out a shy thank you to them.
"But..." Aizawa chimed in, and the group looked up at him curiously, "You all overlooked one major thing. Therefore, your score for this capture training is... Zero points."
"EH?!" The group all cried out in shock, except for Katsuki.
"What's the meaning of this?!" The blonde snapped angrily as he clenched his fists.
"Look," Aizawa glanced behind the group, and everyone turned their heads to look for what he saw.
"Ah..." Izuku's eyes widened in surprise. Where there should have been All Might, still playing dead, was just a puddle of blood and a villain mask. "Th-the villain's corpse is gone!"
"HAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The group hurried outside as they heard the booming laughter, and saw All Might running away at top speed.
"HE'S ALIVE!?" The group cried out in disbelief as the man ran down the street, away from the scene of the crime.
"I AM FLEEING TOWARDS FREEDOM!" All Might called out, with another trailing boom of laughter as he ran.
"You were all under the assumption that the villain was a corpse and didn't tie him up, so you lose." Aizawa said simply as he stepped out of the jewelry store and down the stairs. "You didn't follow through at the end."
"... No way..." the group turned to look back at Aizawa in disbelief, and he shrugged his shoulders.
"Didn't you notice when All Might gave you a hint while he was playing the villain?" Aizawa asked with a raised eyebrow, while Izuku looked to Katsuki who was vibrating with anger now. "When Asui tickled him... He reacted, didn't he...? Corpses do not move. He was alive." Their sensei sighed as he turned to walk away from the group of students, his hands buried into his pockets. "That's it for this times special class. Dismissed."
"Hah..." Izuku sighed at their mistake, and her shoulders slumped in disappointment.
"See...?" Katsuki growled out like a feral animal, and everyone turned to look at him curiously.
"Wait... If the villain was alive..." Everyone looked to Iida as he stood up straight. "Then he pretended to kill himself but... Was looking for a chance to escape, right?"
"Midnight misunderstood and thought he did it for her, huh...?" Asui said with a sad Kero as she hung her head.
"Then..." Uraraka looked to Izuku who was smiling sadly. "What about their love?!"
"Their love!" iida called out with a chop of his hand.
"Their love..." Todoroki looked to Izuku, then up at the sky with a sigh.
"I told you..." Katsuki continued to growl with anger, before his hands exploded. "THAT WASN'T REAL LOVE!"
"Eh..." Izuku heard a cracking sound, and looked over at the jewelry store curiously, before more cracks happened. She could see the splitting in the glass as Katsuki's voice echoed loudly in the street. "The store..!" Izuku cried out as she shoved Asui and Uraraka away from the glass, before there was a loud bang, followed by the crackling of explosions. Izuku closed her eyes as she heard the glass shatter, and held her arm up to protect herself as smoke clouded her vision.
"Are you alirght, Izuchan?!" Uraraka called out, and Izuku opened her eyes slowly, and looked up at Katsuki who was suddenly next to her, his hand pointed at the store. She looked down at the ground, seeing the glass hadn't made it to them, and blushed a bright red as she realized he had blasted it away from her and the rest.
"I'm alright," Izuku smiled back at the others, and laughed warmly at the incident. She glanced at Katsuki as he stormed away, and the group went back to the school to change.
The sound of cicada's filled the evening air as Izuku walked along the quiet street with Katsuki a few feet beside her. She smiled as the orange glow of the sun lit up the sky, and let out a held in laugh.
"What a class, huh?" She asked as she turned her head to look at Katsuki who was glaring forwards as they walked. "The teachers sure came up with a good love story, and your yelling actually shattered glass!"
"I told you, it wasn't a love story." Katsuki snapped angrily, and Izuku looked at the ground in front of them as they continued to walk. "He was selfish, and her love was misplaced. It was more of a con-man story."
"Yeah." Izuku let out a sad laugh, and rubbed the back of her neck gingerly. "You're right... I didn't see the true ending coming at all."
"That's because you're simple." Katsuki said bluntly, and Izuku felt her cheeks redden, and she looked up at him, a bit offended by his comment. "You'd fall for something like that easily."
"I would not!" Izuku cried out at him and he glanced at her with his pointed ruby red gaze. "I wouldn't fall for some villainous guy like that, I... I would fall for some one sweet and kind, who would actually protect me...! He'll be a pro hero like me too, and we'll fight villains together and prove that love is powerful!"
"... Does some one like that even exist?!" Katsuki snapped, his own cheeks red. "Are you stupid?! This is why you're going to end up in some stupid relationship with a shitty guy!"
"I will not!" Izuku cried out at him.
"Will so!" Katsuki shouted back at her. "You can't fall for some dip shit whose only doing it because he's a pro hero! You have to fall for someone who cares about you, costume or not!"
"... You're full of unexpected opinions today..." Izuku said with disbelieving look his way. "That's... a very sweet thing to say..." She put a hand over her pounding heart, trying to calm it.
"IT WAS NOT!" Katsuki shouted back at her, before they heard a window open from a nearby house.
"STOP YELLING IN THE STREETS!" Some one shouted as they leaned out, and the two of them quickly ran away from the scene of their crime. When they came to Katsuki's turn off for his house, they stopped and Izuku bent over, trying to catch her breath.
"What..." Katsuki grumbled out, and Izuku looked over at him curiously as he rubbed his hand over his mouth, trying to catch his breath. "... What are you doing this week before the training camp...?" He asked, and Izuku blushed and looked away from him.
"Uhm, I was going to go shopping with mom," Izuku said as she looked away from him. "Get the stuff I couldn't get when we went to the mall, then I've still got some studying to do, and there's more lessons I wanted to go to... why...?" She looked up at Katsuki curiously and saw his face getting redder as he looked away from her. She saw his eyebrows knit together in anger, and he seemed lost in thought, before his expression soured. "Kacchan...?"
"Nevermind!" Katsuki snapped angrily and stormed away from her. "Enjoy your fucking lessons!" he waved a hand in goodbye, and Izuku frowned in disappointment as she watched him walk away from her. She let out a sigh as she grabbed the straps of her bags on her shoulders, and continued her way home by herself.
"I..." Izuku paused as she heard a familiar shout, and lifted her head to look up as she approached her apartment building. "AM HERE, WAITING TO AMBUSH YOUNG MIDORIYA ON HER WAY HOME!"
"That's not the kind of thing a grown man shouts at a girl!" Izuku cried out in surprise as All Might ran at her in his hero form. "Wh-what are you doing, All Might...?!" There was a poof of vapour, and Izuku fretted over the skeletal form of All Might as he coughed into his fist.
"Young Midoirya..." He coughed out as he straightened up, and Izuku handed him her handkerchief worriedly. "You know about I-Island, right...?"
"I-Island...?!" Izuku asked, and smiled brightly. "Of course I do!" She nodded her hand rapidly, and grinned warmly now, "All the companies in the world in the hero business invested to create a city for the reasearch and development of quirks and hero items! It's an artificial island that was made mobile and it's total land area is-"
"DO YOU WAT TO GO THERE WITH ME?!" All Might cried out, in hopes to stop her excited muttering about I-Island.
"EH?!" Izuku stopped in her thoughts, and her head snapped around to look at All Might in surprise. "M-Me... And you...?"
"You wouldn't be going there for fun..." All Might said seriously as he gripped the handle of the suitcase she finally noticed he had with him. "Now that you're my successor, I was thinking of having you develop more discernment."
"All Might..." Izuku straightened up, and felt the weight of the question imposed on her. She clenched her fists, and a grin spread across her face, as she realized he was doing this for her. "Definitely!"
"Then go inside and get ready for the trip." All Might grinned at her proudly, "We're leaving immediately."
"RIGHT NOW?!" Izuku cried out in shock.
"Hurry, Young Midoriya!" All Might called out as she ran towards her apartment at top speed now. "I-ISLAND AWAITS!"
