Chapter 5: Nate's dark side revealed and Bakugo vs. Cole

Tension. That was the one thing right now. Bakugo and Cole we're having a stare off. It was like anything could set them off. Aizawa looked ready to step in, but Nate put his arm across Aizawa'a chest to stop him.

"Don't. Bakugo needs this." Said Nate.

Aizawa gave Nate a look. Nate rolled his eyes and motioned Aizawa to lean down a bit.

"What I mean. Bakugo needs a reality check. He doesn't care about anyone else but himself when it comes to this course. Cole sees that. You may think that Bakugo become a hero, but Cole and I see Bakugo as a liability. Cole can probably see much of me in Bakugo, when I first went down the evil side of my powers." Said Nate.

"Why's that?" Asked Aizawa as he watches Cole and Bakugo glaring at each other.

Nate seemed to look at the rest of the class to make sure they weren't listening in on their conversation. Nate then gives a sigh as he looks at Aizawa.

"When I did go over the deep end with my powers, it was in the need for revenge. Now I won't go into details, due to how personal it is. But to simplify it, I didn't care what happened to the people, nearly killed some of the people helping me find my parents killer. When I did find the guy, I pummelled the guy into a bloody pulp. I... Killed him out of rage when he brought up my parents." Said Nate.

Aizawa's eyes widen. Nate had killed before. Aizawa also sees that Nate's hands we're shaking.

"He regrets killing that man. Cole must have been there to confront Nate about it." Thinks Aizawa.

Nate then looks at Cole and Bakugo. Cole points to a small island nearby. Cole turns into ball lighting and flies over to the island. Bakugo fallows Cole.

"Looks like their going to settle this with their fists." Said Nate.

Ochaco then comes over to them.

"Aren't you going to stop them?" Asked Ochaco.

"No." Said Nate.

"I may not like it, but no Uraraka. Bakugo needs to learn that not everything can be what he wants." Said Aizawa.

"WHAT!" Yelled most of the class.

"But Mr. Aizawa!? Cole is a pro, he'll wipe the floor with Bakugo!?" Said a shocked Sero.

"Yes he will, to teach Bakugo a lesson. That lesson being, just because you are powerful, doesn't mean your at the top. In this kind of world, there will always be a powerful person, but, there is always someone above them. Bakugo boosts that he's the strongest in our class, but he's got nothing to prove it. The ones that are the strongest are the fallowing. Todoroki, Midoriya, myself, and Bakugo. Now in a fight, there are rules we have to fallow so we don't get hurt. But, Bakugo doesn't seem to fallow those rules very well. For example, he nearly killed Midoriya on our first battle training class." Said Nate.

"But he didn't! Midoriya dodged the attack!" Said Sato.

"What if he didn't? Bakugo made his costume to work for him. His blasts aren't that powerful, but those gauntlets store up sweat to use later on. I took a point blank shot from one of those gauntlets. It was painful, but I'm more durable then you guys. If that blast had hit anyone of you guys point blank, I'm not so sure any of you would have survive. Now, say your a civilian. Bakugo as a pro comes to fight a villain in a heavily populated area, say a city square. If he fired off one of those gauntlets. Yes, he would take down the villain, if not put them into the hospital. But what about the civilians. Some might be caught up in the blast range or they get hit by the debris?" Said Nate.

"Nate has a point." Said Omar.

"But..." Said Momo, but Omar cut her off.

"No buts! From what I've seen in the few training videos the school has sent me, Bakugo is blood thirsty when it comes to battle. He needs to learn that he can't 'kill' his opponents. Some villains do things because their confused or they're desperate for something. Like how you kids didn't want to mercy kill me when I was on a rampage. I once had to face Nate when he was on the evil side of his powers, the second time he went down that path. I barely got away with my life. When the Cole, Nix, Kuo, and I regrouped, we then thought of what could have set Nate off. When we learned what had happened, we went looking for Nate, to bring him back to the light. Half way through the fight, I was worried that we might have to..." Said Omar, but he trailed off.

"Have to, what Omar?" Asked Iida.

Omar looks at Nate. Nate was had his arms crossed over his chest, as if he was hugging himself for comfort.

"Do you mind if I tell them Nate?" Asked Omar.

"Go a head." Said Nate.

Flash back seven years ago

Omar was patrolling the gas works for any sigh of his former gang members. He sees some people waving at him as he flies through the air, he waves back once in awhile. His com link in his helmet then goes off, it was Larouche.

"Yo Omar, you there?" Said Larouche.

"Yes. What is it?" Asked Omar as he lands on some scaffolding on one of the towers.

"I need you to check something out for me. Some of my men found a bunch of militia bodies in the remains of a warehouse. They think it's ice men, but unless the ice men gang has flamethrowers, then I don't think so. Most of the bodies we're chard to a crisp. The warehouse also had earth like spikes coming out of the roof as well. I'll send you the coordinates." Said Larouche.

"Alright, I'm on it." Said Omar.

Omar checks his phone to see where the warehouse is and sees its not that far from him. He then heads off to check it out. It had been three days since Omar joined them in their fight to prepare for the beast and against Bertrand. Nate accepted Omar in about one day. Nix was still on the fence about Omar joining them. Kuo and Cole gave Omar a chance to prove himself to them. Zeke offered Omar a beer so they could talk and get to know each other once Zeke got back from spying on the militia. Omar then reaches the warehouse. The warehouse was in ruins. The roof was only being supported by the earth spikes. The left wall was completely gone. The back wall was nearly falling apart. The right wall looked like Swiss cheese by the amount of bullet holes in it and earth like arrows. The bodies of the militia we're off to the side under some white blankets the rebels brought with them. Omar then hears a sound behind him.

"Looks like Larouche called you too." Said Nix.

"I was nearby anyways. I was bound to find this eventually." Said Omar.

Nix goes and looks under one of the blankets. She sees the militia grunt's body, if you could even describe it properly. The whole body was chard to a crisp, with the head and neck area being the most chard. The clothes we're all but burnt away. The next body looked like a shivered up prune. Four bodies had stone arrows or sharp pebbles imbedded in them. One body had no head and no left arm, looked like someone vaporized the parts off. Nix drops one blanket entirely just as she picked it up.

"That's just messed up man. Yo Frozone! Find anything else in there!?" Shouted Nix.

"Yeah! Come take a look!" Shouted back Omar.

Omar had carefully made his way into the warehouse, due to his size. He found more bodies, some in the concrete itself. Some we're soaking wet, others we're left alone. Omar found some with holes in their chests. Nix then comes over beside Omar.

"So... What do you think happened?" Asked Nix.

Omar takes a look around again with his eyes. He then spots a gas tower by the warehouse.

"Let's head up there to get a better vantage point." Said Omar as he points to the tower.

The two dash up to the top. Once there, Omar looks down at the warehouse.

"Alright. The attack came from the left, judging by the left walls destruction." Said Omar.

"Ok. So what caused the wall to come down?" Said Nix as she forms the picture in her head.

"By the walls material, it looked like something exploded. Some of the metal pieces looked like they we're melted by heat. Next, the front had some uneven concrete. If I had to guess, the attacker is a conduit with earth powers, so he or she cut off the militia's escape." Said Omar.

"I saw that too. The militia must have tried to fight back. I saw the remains of a RPG and some grenade launchers, that must have caused the back wall to break apart a bit." Said Nix

"This then probably lead to the attacker to kill the RPG and grenade launcher militia first. Then the right wall was full of holes. Some stray shots and some stone arrows that ether missed some militia or went through them. Possible the attacker got bored of fighting and finished off the rest of the militia with the stone spike pillars. Maybe there we're some survivors, so the attacker killed them or got some information from them, then killed them." Said Omar.

The two look around some more. They then spot something out of place. It was a picture of some kids in it. Omar takes a look at the picture, while Nix looks around more. Omar sees nine boys and five girls. One of the boy's was Nate and he was somewhat smiling. Omar thinks why this picture was here.

"Where has Nate been these days? The last time I saw him was two days ago and then he went silent. Wonder if he went to see these kids and didn't tell anyone?" Thinks Omar.

"What got ice man?" Asked Nix.

"This. It's a picture of Nate with thirteen other kids, eight boys and five girls. Did he ever talk about seeing anyone or seeing any other groups?" Said Omar.

Nix was looking over the picture. She then noticed Samantha. Nix points to Samantha in the picture.

"I've seen this girl before. Nate helps her train her water powers over in Flood Town. I once saw her sleeping at base camp in Flood Town when I was passing through to check up on you guys. She was something special to Nate, ether a crush or a close friend. The others I don't know of. The girl's name was Samantha." Said Nix.

The two then hear a radio go off. It was pretty clear for transmission, even thou it was near the middle of the warehouse. Nix grabbed the radio and she holds it up to her ear so she could hear. Omar leans down to listen in.

"We need back up!" Came a militia grunt's voice.

"Jack on you right!" Came a voice by the grunt.

The sound of water hitting a body was heard. The radio on the other end falls to the ground.

"Stay back!" Said a scared Jack.

The sound of water being drained was heard and a pained scream was heard.

"You bastard!" Came a different militia grunt's voice.

"We need back up! We're at the train yard in Flood Town! Hurry!" Came a voice of another militia grunt.

The radio then cuts out.

Omar and Nix quickly make their way to the train yard at flood town.

At the train yard

Bodies of militia grunt's we're everywhere. Omar and Nix ran into some civilians fleeing the area, due to the water spouts popping up even few minutes. Omar stayed on the ground and walked into the yard. Nix stayed on top of the train cars. Omar spots some dried up militia bodies by him. Nix sees some ash piles near some guns on the ground. The two the hear a scream cut through the air.

"PLEASE! NO MORE! I DON'T KNOW WHERE BERTRAND IS! WE WHERE CALLED TO THIS PLACE TO GET SOME BAIT AND STUFF!" Yelled a militia grunt.

"Then your worthless to me now. Die." Came a familiar voice.

The grunt screams and the sound of water hitting something is then heard, fallowed by a body hitting the ground. Omar walks into the warehouse and he stops dead in his tracks. It was Nate, but he was different. His trench coat was darker in colour and the bottom was torn in some places. His skin was paler in colour as well, with some black veins on his neck and possible going up onto his face. Nix comes over to Omar, she was shocked on what she sees. They see Nate absorb some electricity from a exposed power line

"Damn MacGrath Junior, you really know how to rip into the militia." Said Nix.

"Not the time Nix. Nate, we're you the one that did this?" Asked Omar, who was cautious.

Nate turns to face them. They see Nate's face had more of those black veins, some forming lines on ether side of Nate's mouth that make it look like he's smiling. His eyes we're darker in colour, bags could be seen underneath his eyes. Nix seemed uncomfortable for some reason. While Omar was on edge. The two adults see a militia grunt hiding by them. Nix doesn't look at him, but she moves her eyes to show him that she sees him. The grunt's mask was somewhat broken and they could see his left eye. His eye had a pleading look in it. Omar noticed the grunt and decided to keep Nate's attention on them.

"I'll ask again Nate. We're you the one that killed all these militia grunt's here and at the warehouse in the Gas Works?" Asked Omar.

"I needed answers. So I went to the right place and beat the ever loving sh*t out of the militia to get the answers." Said Nate as he walks around a bit.

"But you killed them. Their bodies we're almost unrecognizable. What happened too you?" Said Nix, who for once was trying to be the voice of reason for some reason.

The grunt by Omar and Nix decided to make a brake for the doors. Sadly, Nate turned into ball lightning and slammed the grunt into the ground.

"PLEASE LET ME GO! I HAVE A FAMILY!" Yelled the grunt.

"Then tell me where is Bertrand or where he's been these past two days." Said Nate, as he slams his foot into the grunt's chest.

"THE GAS WORKS! HE'S BEEN MOVING AROUND THE NORTH AND EAST SIDES OF THE GAS WORKS! NOW PLEASE LET ME GO!" Yelled the grunt in fear.

"Alright then. You may go." Said Nate in a calm tone.

"You mean it?" Said the grunt in hope.

"Yes. There's the door. Your free to leave." Said Nate.

The grunt springs up and jogs towards the door. The grunt makes about three to six steps outside, when a lightning bolt hits his back. The grunt stumbles and another bolt hits him, nearly killing him.

"I'll pay your family a visit after I'm done with Bertrand." Said Nate.

A cluster grenade is then thrown onto the grunt.

'BOOM!'

Omar and Nix look in absolute horror and shock. The grunt was no more. There was no body. Nix almost threw up. Omar's left hand was shaking in fear.

"Say, you two what to join me in killing Bertrand. It'll be fun." Said Nate with a insane smile and look in his eyes.

"No. Nate. You need to come with us, your not well right now." Said Nix, as she slowly approaches Nate.

"Oh? This is new for you Nix. You always egged Cole and me to be the bad boys all the time when we first met you. What's gotten into you?" Said Nate.

"Look, I may egg you guys to do bad things, but this..." Said Nix as she paused to swing her arm around.

"This isn't what I had in mind. Sure, I like to take down the militia as much as the next guy. But this isn't you Nate. Your like a little brother to me. So tell me what's wrong and we'll talk with Cole and Kuo." Said Nix.

Nate seemed to scowl when Nix was talking. Nix had put her hand on Nate's left shoulder. Nate seemed to grab Nix's wrist. Nix gained a small smile, but it was replaced with a pained look. The reason, Nate was slowly crushing Nix's wrist. Nix tried to get Nate to let go, but Nate had a iron grip on her wrist.

"Hey Junior, this kinda starting to hurt. Can you let go." Said Nix.

"Don't..." Said Nate as he paused.

'SMACK!'

"CALL ME THAT!" Yelled Nate as he gave Nix a hard knee in her stomach. Said knee had some electricity behind it.

Nix went flying into a train car. Omar got into a defensive stance. Omar knew for a fact that something was wrong with Nate. Nate seemed to be smiling for some reason. Omar sees Nate absorb some earth and looks at him. Omar jumps out of the way. Nate slams into the wall of the warehouse. Nate turns around to look at Omar. Omar makes a ice shield to protect himself. A barbed stone arrow imbedded itself in the shield, almost hitting Omar's head.

"I got to get away with Nix. We have to tell Cole, Zeke, and Kuo about what has happened to Nate." Thinks Omar.

Omar makes some small ice pillars to obscure Nate's vision. Omar then runs to Nix, who was slowly getting up from being smacked into a train car. Omar grabs Nix and throws her over his shoulder. Omar then does a ice jump to get some distance.

"Omar! Behind us!" Said Nix in shock.

Omar looks behind him and sees a black waterspout heading at them. Omar lands on the ground and does another jump, this jump being a little bit shorter so they could do another longer jump. But on the longer jump, a hot stream of water hits Omar mid jump and turns the ice into water. Omar stumbles and drops Nix. The two get hit by the waterspout, which was hot, but not hot enough to cook them alive.

'BOOM!'

The waterspout explodes. Omar and Nix hit the ground hard. Omar gets some rubble on top of him, due to him falling onto a wooden walkway. While Nix falls face up into some water. Nix was unconscious when she hit the water. Omar was slowly loosing consciousness. Omar sees Nate crouches by him. Nate taps on Omar's helmet, as if seeing if he was alive still. Nate shrugs and walks away. Omar barely hears Nate talking to himself.

"Time to die Bertrand. Then my friends can rest in peace." Said Nate, as he then turns into a black waterspout and dashes towards the Gas Works.

Omar then goes unconscious.

Two hours later

"Omar? Omar? Omar wake up!" Came the voice of Cole.

Omar groans as he sits up. He noticed that he was at the train car they we're using a their base in Flood Town. Nix had a rebel medic by her putting on some bandages around her stomach. Nix was also sitting up. Kuo and Zeke we're sitting in some chairs that they had with them.

"What happened? It looked like someone went on a murder spry at the warehouse and in the train yard. The locals said something about black waterspouts popping up every few minutes to half hours. Did you see who did it?" Asked Cole.

"We did. But your not going to like it. It was a kid." Said Omar.

"A kid!?!" Said a shocked Zeke.

"Yeah man and we know this kid." Said Nix.

"So who was this kid that we know of?" Asked Kuo.

"All I'm saying, is that Cole really needs to read a book about parenting." Said Nix.

"I don't have any kids... Wait a minute. Your saying Nate did all that?" Said Cole.

Omar nods his head. Zeke seemed uncomfortable about the subject. Kuo had a look of utter shock and horror. Omar and Nix then explain what happened. From them looking over the warehouse, to their confrontation with Nate in the train yard.

"This can't be Nate. He's too nice and gentle, with in reason mind you. But he would never go on a murder spry for no reason." Said Kuo in denial.

"Tell that to the grunt that tried to run away. Oh wait, he went everywhere after a cluster grenade landed on him." Said Nix.

A knock comes from the door.

"Don't shoot my ass." Came the voice of Larouche.

Zeke lets him in. Larouche comes in and sees Nix with bandages wrapped around her stomach area.

"Ruff day." Said Larouche.

"Yeah ruff day, if you include little Nate going on a murder spry and nearly killing you as a ruff day, then yes a ruff day." Said Nix with loads of sarcasm in her voice.

Larouche didn't seemed shocked about Nate had done.

"You knew about Nate?" Asked Kuo.

"Yes and no. He came by some of my men, asking if they knew of any militia in the Gas Works. They told him and he walks away. That was two days ago. Then today, my men report a warehouse full of militia bodies, some even unrecognizable. I tried calling Nate, but when he replied, he rudely told me off and saying about doing some recon in the Flood Town. I just past it off as faze in his life. Then two hours ago, I get a call from some local rebels here in Flood Town, that there's some black waterspouts popping up in the train yard here. Then a medic is requested in Flood Town. So I came here to get some answers." Said Larouche.

"Did Nate have any other friends here in New Merais?" Asked Omar.

"Yeah, those orphans. There's Josh the oldest boy there, the leader of the little group. Why do you ask?" Said Zeke.

Omar then brings out a picture of the orphans with Nate in it. Omar then explains what he header Nate say before he went unconscious.

"Nate said something about making Bertrand paying and something about his friends resting." Said Omar.

Larouche then gets a call.

"Yes, what is it? What!?! Are you sure? Ok, make some graves for them." Said a shocked and saddened Larouche.

"What is it?" Asked Cole.

"Josh and his little group we're taken by the militia." Said Larouche.

"What!?!?! We have to find them!" Said Zeke.

"It's to late. The guys I have drop food off for them, noticed the door was busted in and the conduit kid's elements ether imbedded in the walls or furniture. They asked around and got the place that the militia took them too. But... They..." Said Larouche, but he seemed to choke on his own words.

"Bertrand turned them." Said Kuo.

"Yeah. I promised those kids we would keep them safe and we failed them." Said Larouche.

Omar puts his hand too his chin. Nate was on a murder spry. His friends we're turned into swamp monsters. Nate was looking for Bertrand. Omar then realized something.

"Revenge." Said Omar.

"What?" Said Larouche.

"Nate, he's going after Bertrand for revenge. Those kids, they we're Nate's friends outside of us." Said Omar.

"Ok, how is that a bad thing?" Asked Nix.

"Nix. I don't think Nate is in the right mind set to fight Bertrand. He seems more blood thirsty and uncaring about casualties, ether the enemies or civilian. He could have killed us at the train yard, but he didn't. The Nate we know must be underneath." Explained Omar.

"Omar's right. Nate could cause more harm then good. He's probably tearing apart the Gas Works looking for Bertrand, which he might not care about civilian casualties." Said Cole.

They hear a distant booming sound. They all rush outside of the train car. They see storm clouds had formed over by the Gas Works north and east sides. A black bolt of lightning strikes a tower and the tower explodes. Nix flinched at the show of power happening in front of her. Kuo, Larouche, and Omar had a look of shock on their faces. Zeke's hand was shaking with fear.

"That's Nate." Said Cole.

"Nate's causing that!?! He's possible more powerful then you Cole!" Said a shocked Kuo.

"I know. But he isn't. We share some of the same powers, but we don't share the same skill to do so. I had years to hone my powers. Nate only had about maybe couple months to train with his powers. But, he's cunning when it comes to using them. We have to find him before he finds Bertrand. If he kills Bertrand, we won't get the old Nate back. Let's go." Said Cole as he runs towards the Gas Works.

Kuo dashes after Cole. Omar goes with Zeke and Larouche to get a truck to head over to the Gas Works. Nix was the last one to leave.

"To hell with it." Said Nix as she dashes after Cole and Kuo.

Later at the Gas Works Northeast side

Militia trucks and grunts litter the ground. Cole and Kuo had just arrived at the battlefield. Some grunts roll around in pain on the ground. Nix, Omar, Zeke, and Larouche show up with some rebels to take away the dead or to get the injured militia grunt's away from the battle zone. They notice some swamp monsters nearby, some dead and some still alive. They spot a breathing Ravager nearby, the left side of it's face had a bloody wound and the back armour was cracked. The swamp monster was still alive, but it didn't try to attack them. Some regular swamp monsters roam around, but they don't attack them.

"Is it just me, or are the swamp monsters afraid of something?" Said Zeke.

"Maybe. But what could scare a swamp monster?" Said Larouche in confusion.

Some civilians run by them. Two of them have some burns on their arms. One had her arm dangling on her right side. Two we're carrying one that was unconscious. Another one had a nasty cut on their head.

"We'll help these people. Go find Nate." Said Larouche.

Larouche and his men then help the civilians.

"I'll stay here too." Said Zeke.

"But Zeke, you know Nate just as good as Cole. You could help him." Said Kuo.

"Not after the last time he went psycho. I rather not get killed in four different languages." Said Zeke as he jogs off to help a limping man to a truck for medical treatment.

The four conduits then head out deeper into the northeast side of the Gas Works. As they walk, they notice some dead civilians or injured civilians. Cole heals the civilians and asked them some questions. Each one gives the same answer for one question.

"What happened here?" Asked Cole.

"It was a kid. Maybe eight years old, I don't know. The militia had gathered us up to see if any of us we're freaks. That's when the one sided slaughter happened. This kid, with black lightning, comes flying in and starts yelling at the militia to tell him where Bertrand is. If the militia didn't talk, he started to move onto us." Said a scared woman.

"Alright, head that way and you'll run in with some rebels. They'll get you out here and if you need it, they'll get you some medical care." Said Cole.

The woman nods her head and runs down the road. Omar finds some ice men bodies laying around as well. Some of the bodies had no damage on them, as if Nate didn't land the fatal blow. Omar kneels down to see if the suit had been damaged, but it wasn't.

"Did this guy just die from a heart attack or something?" Said Nix.

"I don't think so. I think he was electrocuted to death. Nate probably caused a scuffle with the ice men gang. Nate probably thought they knew where Bertrand was." Said Omar.

A black bolt of lightning strikes a gas tower nearby and it catches on fire. Omar thinking fast, makes a ice shield to protect them. The tower explodes and flames go everywhere. Kuo helps Omar keep the shield up. Nix warps to a concrete barricade to keep a teenage girl down and out of the blast. The girl thanks Nix and runs away. Cole does a radar pulse to see if anyone is nearby. He spots a small outline of Nate. Cole sprints forwards in the direction of Nate. The reasoning for this, was because Nate was inching towards a downed militia grunt and a downed civilian. The other three run after Cole. They turn down a alleyway and spot Nate with a foot on the civilians chest. It was a young woman. Said woman was crying.

"Tell me where Bertrand is and I'll let her go." Said Nate in a threatening tone.

"I told you freak! I don't know!" Said the grunt.

Nate sent a small jolt into the woman and the woman screamed in pain.

"Wrong. Try again." Said Nate.

"Please! Just stop! Just tell him!" Said the woman.

"Shut up b*h! I told him I don't know!" Yelled the grunt.

Nate then grabs the grunt's face and bio leaches him. The grunt barely had time to scream. The woman then cries some more and doesn't look at Nate.

"Know then... Where... Is... Bertrand." Said Nate, saying the last three words individual.

The woman had lost her voice and continue to cry. Nate, unsatisfied by the response, makes a black gigawatt blade and raises it up in the air.

"DON'T DO IT NATE!" Yelled Cole.

"Then she better tell me where Bertrand is." Said Nate, who didn't look at Cole.

"Please." Said the woman in a small voice, but still loud enough to be heard.

The woman then looks at the three.

"Help me." Said the woman.

Nate was going to impale the woman, if it wasn't for Kuo firing a ice beam from her hands. This caused Nate to miss the woman. Omar then makes a blunt javelin and throws it at Nate. It hits Nate and sends him flying away from the woman. Cole then heals the woman. When the woman runs away, just as Nate gets up.

"What the f*k. I thought Bertrand is the enemy here, not me. I'm trying to find Bertrand and kill him. But then you three come and try to stop me." Said Nate as he gives the four adults a death glare.

"Not like this Nate. We exposed Bertrand for making people into swamp monsters and we stopped him from shipping the forced conduits to their buyers. You have to stop, your not well right now." Said Cole.

Nate seemed more p*sed off by what Cole said.

"Not well? I'm perfectly fine. Bertrand is going to pay for what he did to my friends." Said Nate.

"Nate calm down. We know that..." Said Kuo but Nate cut her off.

"You know what? You knew where Bertrand is!?" Said Nate in rage.

Kuo flinched and sees the eight year old boy glaring at her.

"It's not that we know, it's more like a hunch." Said Kuo.

"Tell. Me. Now." Ordered Nate in a menacing tone.

Kuo seeing that she messed up, she tried to speak, but she lost her voice. The way Nate ordered her, he was more then likely going to kill her if she didn't tell him. Kuo was proven right, when Nate made a black gigawatt blade form on his right arm.

"If you don't tell me in the next three seconds, you'll loose something. I'm thinking about an arm or eye." Said Nate.

They all got into a defensive stance. They didn't want to hurt Nate. They needed to pin him down or knock them him out. Cole charged amp with a low amount of electricity, to not give Nate more power. Nix had napalm flow around her hand and she looked ready to warp to a different position. Kuo had her hands covered in blue mist. Omar looked ready to make a ice pillar for him to stand on.

"If your not going to help me... Then you can just die." Said Nate.

As fast as, well, lightning, Nate surged forwards, heading for Kuo. Nix made a smoke screen and warped away. Omar only made half ice pillar, due to Nate launching a Alfa rocket at him. Nate dodges a ice steam from Kuo. Nate then has lightning go into a pile of scrap metal and the metal bends. It takes the form of a dog with sharp teeth, the eyes of the dog we're sparking with black lightning. It howls somehow and growls at the four adults, mostly at Kuo.

"Is it kinda sad that I'm afraid of an eight year old?" Asked Nix.

"Kinda, maybe, but your not the only one afraid right now." Said Kuo, as she freezes the metal dog solid.

Nate growls in frustration and he charges Kuo. Kuo forms ice in her hands to make a shield. Kuo's shield doesn't last long against a couple gigawatt blade strikes. Nix throws a napalm grenade at Nate and he goes flying towards a few warehouses. Omar fires a ice beam and gets Nate's left foot frozen in ice. Nate grunts in discomfort and turns into ball lightning to get away. The four adults head towards the warehouse. They then enter the warehouse, but they stay on guard. They hear Nate running around in the large warehouse, but they can't see him due to the lights being turned off.

"Stay out of my way! I'm ending Bertrand today and then we can focus on The Beast! You with held the information... Are you siding with Bertrand!?" Came the voice of Nate from the shadows.

"We're not on Bertrand's side Nate, we're still looking for him. Yes we have info on him, but with the little info we have, we can't find him." Said Cole.

"Liar!" Came Nate's voice from the left.

"We could never lie to you Nate! Your evil karma side is infecting your mind, just like back in Empire City!" Calls out Cole.

"Shut up!" Calls out Nate as he blasts a Alfa bolt at Cole.

Cole does a back flip to dodge the bolt. Omar fires a low powered ice beam from where the bolt came from, but it only hits the roof. Nix throws a napalm grenade at a cluster of wooden boxes, which she thought Nate was hiding behind. Kuo had to dodge a precision shot from the far right corner.

"This isn't you Nate! The Nate we know, would have came to us for comfort, not go on a murdering spry! Where's the Nate that likes to watch movies, prank us, prank the militia, heading to the medical centres to help heal people, and hang out with his friends!" Said Kuo.

"Shut up! My friends are gone! None of you know what it is like to see someone you care about killed or turned into something else in front of your eyes!" Came Nate's voice from in front of them.

"Yes I do Nate! I lost Trish when Kesseler kidnaped her! You comforted me when we barred her in the park in the historical district! I helped you through your grief when you realize what you had done after you killed your father out of revenge when he killed your mother! Let me help you Nate!" Called Cole.

"Shut up." Came Nate's voice a few feet in front of them.

"Shut up. Shut up. Shut up..." Said Nate as his voice slowly got louder.

They also noticed electricity was being pulled towards Nate. The electricity was gathering around Nate in a aura.

"SHUT UP!" Yelled Nate.

The electricity explodes outwards in a pulse shaped like a dome of pure lightning, going in all directions (think of it as when Doomsday evolved in the Justice League movie).

"RUN FOR IT!" Yelled Cole.

The four all run away from the pulse. Kuo dashes to the top of a building. Cole jumps onto a car and launches up onto a power line. Omar does some long range ice launches to get some distance. Nix warps multiple times to stay ahead of the pulse. After a few minutes, the pulse goes away. Cole's phone goes off.

"Cole! You there brother!? What happened!?" Came the voice of Zeke.

"We're fine Zeke. That pulse was from Nate. Didn't know he could do that." Said Cole as he meets up with Kuo and the others on top of the roof.

The four adults look down at the destruction caused by Nate. One and half blocks we're destroyed. The four warehouses we're gone. Cole sways a bit when he senses something. Omar catches Cole when it looked like Cole was going to fall over.

"You all right Cole?" Asked Omar.

"The power was knocked out when Nate did that pulse thing. He must be drained after that kind of attack." Said Cole.

They see some black lightning form in the centre of the blast. It reforms into Nate and he drops to his knees in exhaustion. Nate then puts his hands down on to stop him from falling over. The four then head down to see if they could talk some sense into Nate. As they get close to Nate, they see him glare at them. Nate slowly gets up onto his feet, be it a bit wobbly. Nate then absorbs some water from a water pipe that had been exposed.

"I can do this all day." Said a tired Nate.

"No you can't Nate, let us help you and we'll take down Bertrand the right way." Said Cole.

Nate then fires off a stream of black water, which was steaming hot. Cole dodges the stream of water. Nate then absorbs some earth and attacks.

Three hours later

Absolute carnage had happened. From the first one and half blocks destroyed by Nate. Another two we're destroyed by the ensuing battle. Omar was the first to be knocked out, due to his left leg and right arm being dislocated by a angry Nate. Next was Nix. She was thrown through a thin wall, but she still was knocked unconscious, while also getting a concussion, and her right arm being dislocated. Cole and Kuo we're the only ones still standing, just barely. Kuo had a cut above her left eye. While Cole would have a new scar on his chest. Nate wasn't looking to good as well. He had a cut above both his eyes, a few bruises on his chest/arms/legs/face, and a good scrap on his face. Omar was still conscious and he was leaning on a wall that he was sitting by. His suit had a few dents in it and a little pieces of the suit we're missing. Omar could feel his smaller injures healing, but he would need someone to relocate his left leg and right arm.

"This isn't going to well. It's like when Titans of the ice gang go on a rampage after a few weeks of their evolution. Is Nate to far gone? Are we going have to kill him?" Thinks Omar, who shudders at the thought of killing Nate.

His com link then goes off. It was Zeke.

"We're in position to help Nate." Said Zeke.

"Help him how? You can't get close." Said Omar.

"We don't have to, we just needed to get higher up." Said Zeke.

Now this got Omar confused. Why would Zeke need to get higher, was he going to take pot shots at Nate from a top of a building? Or did they find a way to stop Nate with out harming him. Back with Cole and Kuo, things we're starting to go sideways. Kuo had been pinned by some rubble from a still standing wall. While Cole was still fighting strong. Nate had healed mostly from absorbing earth and the odd water pipe that was exposed, but he was still tired out. Till a distant gun shot rang out and Nate gets hit. It looked like a dart had been shot out of a gun. Two more gun shots are heard and two more darts hit Nate.

"Got him. Cole pin Nate down, that will help the sedatives put him to sleep." Said Zeke from the radio.

Cole, who was still tired mind you, runs forwards and trips Nate. Cole then pins Nate down with Nate's arms behind his back so he couldn't absorb anymore earth or the other three elements he could control.

"GET... OFF... Of... Me... You... Son... Of." Said Nate, but he was slowly going to sleep.

Nate then goes limp and falls to sleep. Cole picks Nate up and carries him to a rebel truck and they drive to a safe house to help Nate.

Back to the present

"After we got to the safe house, we had to lock Nate up in a metal room with not power in it. We then had to wait for the sedatives to wear off. Right after the sedatives wore off, Cole was the only one to talk to Nate, being that he was Nate's father figure. It took three days to get Nate back to the side of good." Said Omar.

The whole class was shocked to find out what Nate was like on his evil side of his powers. He went on a murdering spry to get revenge on Bertrand. He killed the militia and some civilians in a blind rage. Nate was shaking at the memory and was looking down in shame. Most of the class looked at Nate, but he wouldn't look them.

"Why didn't you tell us about this?" Asked Mina.

"I didn't want you guys to be afraid of me." said Nate.

Sero wold have said something, but he decided against it. Setsuna was horrified to learn about that side of her friends powers and what he turns into. Izuku was also horrified by the story. Nate was a villain at one point in his life and he almost stayed a villain as well. Some of them we're afraid of Nate's dark side. While the other side we're glad that Cole brought Nate back to the light. A explosion happens.

"DIE!" Yelled Bakugo.

"Even after the story, their still fighting." Said Nate.

Through out the story Omar was talking about, Cole and Bakugo had started to fight.

With Bakugo and Cole during the story

"You can still back down kid. Take this as a learning experience and move on." Said Cole.

"Go to hell! I'm supposed to be the top dog here, not those stupid extras!" Said Bakugo.

"What the hell is with this kid? Guess people praised him too much when he was a kid or something. He definitely has a god complex." Thinks Cole.

The two get into a fighting stance. Bakugo has his hands behind him so he could rush Cole and blast him away. Cole grips amp and charges it with a low amount of power.

"GO!" Yelled Cole.

Bakugo blasts off. Cole runs towards Bakugo. Bakugo does a high speed axe kick. Cole rolls to the side and swings amp. The swing did miss Bakugo, but Cole hits him with a Alfa bolt. Cole then charges Bakugo. Bakugo was still stunned by the bolt, didn't have enough time to dodge the but end of amp going into his stomach. Bakugo gets the wind knocked out of him and he stumbles back. Cole just stands watching Bakugo.

"I thought you said that your the top dog here? Aren't the top dogs supposed to be the strongest?" Said Cole.

"Shut up old man. No ones stronger then me in this class." Said Bakugo.

"Then how did Midoriya and Nate beat you in their fights with you?" Asked Cole.

This got a negative reaction from Bakugo.

"THEY CHEATED! THAT LYING SNAKE DEKU HID HIS QUIRK FROM ME! ALL THOSE YEARS, ALL THOSE CROCODILE TEARS, HE WAS JUST LOOKING DOWN AT ME! THEN THERE'S MACGRATH, THAT HAS TEN QUIRKS! NO ONE IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE TEN QUIRKS! HE JUST LOOKS DOWN ON EVERYONE, HE DIDN'T EVEN TAKE ME SERIOUSLY WHEN WE FOUGHT, I WOULD HAVE MOPPED THE FLOOR WITH HIM!" Yelled Bakugo.

Cole shakes his head. There was no getting through to Bakugo about accepting his mistakes and owning up to them. Bakugo was just a teen with a god complex and had to prove to everyone that he was the best and they we're just weaklings.

"Fine then. Hit me with your best shot bomber man." Said Cole, who holsters amp.

"YOU'LL BE SORRY FOR SAYING THAT!" Yelled Bakugo in rage.

Everyone sees Bakugo launch himself up into the air. They then see Bakugo use his explosions to spin himself around and shoot through the air towards Cole. Smoke was seen forming around Bakugo.

"HOWITZER... IMPACT!!!" Yelled Bakugo.

'BOOM!'

A huge smoke cloud explodes outwards. Bakugo comes out of the smoke breaching heavily and holding his arms. He had a victorious smile on his face.

"HA! YOU SEE THAT YOU EXTRAS! I JUST BEAT THE SEVENTH RANKED HERO! HES NOTHING TO ME! HE WAS JUST A SMALL PEBBLE IN THE ROAD FOR ME TO KICK ASIDE! HE..." Yelled Bakugo, but he was cut off.

A alfa grenade was thrown at him and it went off. Bakugo went flying and hits the ground hard. He groans as he picks himself up. Out of the smoke comes Cole, with a frost shield up.

"There's a reason I'm the seventh ranked hero kid, I'm no slouch. I've been hit by villains stronger then you." Said Cole.

"SHUT UP!" Yelled Bakugo.

Bakugo then charges Cole, who still had the frost shield up. Bakugo fires off multiple explosions into the shield, but the shield didn't break. In fact, it looked like Cole being recharged by the explosions. After a few minutes, Bakugo holds his arms in pain. The amount of explosions he had just down, put a lot strain on his arms. Bakugo takes a step back to recalculate his strategy. But Cole runs forwards and engages Bakugo in hand to hand combat. The two trade punches, kicks, and they see Bakugo try to head but Cole. But sadly, Cole over powers Bakugo and pins him to the ground with arc bolt take down. Bakugo thrashes around and uses his quirk to get his hands free, but Cole had put Bakugo's palms facing up to stop Bakugo from destroying the ground.

"It's over kid. You lost. The out come of this fight was already decided. Not by who's quirk was stronger, but the level of skill, the amount of training, and the experience they have. I'm thirty two and a pro. Your still in school. So I won this fight. I didn't cheat, I just had more skill and practise." Said Cole.

Cole undoes the arc restrains on Bakugo. Bakugo just walks away in defeat.

"There are two things I'm also going to teach you kids. The first one is, no matter how strong you say you are, there will always be someone stronger then you. The second being, what can kill a person." Said Cole.

Kirishima raises his hand.

"Yes Kirishima?" Asked Cole.

"Don't quirks kill people. Most quirks can easily kill someone." Said Kirishima.

"No, see, powers don't kill people. Oh no, it's the person behind the powers that kill people. If you use your powers to harm a person or put them in the hospital, you could potentially kill them. So, think about it every time you use your powers on a person. Do you want to take them down or do you need to put them in the hospital. That's all for this class, your dismissed." Said Cole as he turns into ball lightning and flies away.

Kuo takes Todoroki off to the side to talk. Omar and Nix walk with the class back to the change rooms. Bakugo was the first one to leave after Cole dismissed them.

With Kuo and Todoroki

"I saw you use your fire in the excises." Said Kuo.

"It was the only way to weaken Glacier for Midoriya to land the finishing blow." Said Todotoki.

Kuo just sighs. Rei had meet her after she had gotten the blood transfusion and stitched up. Rei gave a little more blood then expected, so much so that Kuo could be mistaken as a sister Rei if some one did a blood test. Todoroki's father wasn't that happy about having Kuo being adopted into the family, but he had to live with it. Kuo and Enji didn't get along very well, most of the time if they we're alone, they would argue about how Enji treats his kids. Kuo for the life of hers, didn't understand why Rei didn't get a divorce with the man, but she didn't ask. Natsuo like Kuo and saw her as his step aunt. Fuyumi loved to talk with Kuo, mostly about what's going on at home or their taste in men. Shoto liked having a female figure around to talk too. Omar was almost like a uncle figure to Shoto.

"Just remember what I said. Never be ashamed on who you are." Said Kuo.

"Thanks Kuo. And could you please not tell father that I used my fire in the training. I don't want to give him the stratification that I used his power." Said Todoroki.

"Sure. Now go get changed." Said Kuo.

Todoroki gives his aunt a quick hug and heads to go get changed into his school uniform.

Later with Nate and Cole

"So Midoriya wants to learn parkour and he asked you to teach you?" Asked Cole.

"Yep. Do you know of any parkour parks?" Asked Nate.

"My agency has one built into it." Said Cole.

"Oh, ok. That will work. Mind if we come in this weekend to get the basics down?" Asked Nate.

"Sure. Also, keep an eye on Bakugo. The league may try something with him." Said Cole.

"You got it. Anything else I should know of." Said Nate.

"Well, there's the swamp monster cut that sprung up two years ago." Said Cole.

"Say what now? A swamp monster cult? Your serious right?" Said a confused Nate.

Cole then explains what the cult was. A small group of people believe that the swamp monsters we're gods anger on people with quirks or the next step in evolution. Other members of the cult, see the swamp monsters as a ancient one, some kind of God, so they believe that the swamp monsters are the god's kin or something.

"That's f*ked up." Said Nate.

"No kidding. Three months ago, I found a small group of this cult and they had made weapons that look like the regular swamp monster claws and they wore them all the time. The hero association is still trying to figure out what to do with them." Said Cole.

The two part ways and head to their homes for some rest.

In a unknown location

"Is it ready Doctor?" Asked Bertrand.

A doctor is in another part of the room over by some machines is seen, but his figure is concealed by shadows and machinery.

"Yes. The power transfer device is complete. We just need to test it and fine another blast core." Said the doctor.

Suddenly the doors burst open. Two militia grunts drag in a homeless man. The man had a beard and some scars on his hands.

"What have you brought to us today boys?" Asked Bertrand.

"This freak here can force a person to split in two, but not in the way you think." Said the grunt on the right.

"Do tell." Said Bertrand in curiosity.

The grunt on the left takes over.

"This guy made Jim split into two. One half good and the other bad. Good Jim tried to get us to let the freak go. While bad Jim wanted to bash the freaks head in. But two minutes later, both good and bad Jim go back together. Jim knew what had happened as well." Said the grunt on the left.

The doctor holds his chin.

"Put him in the cells down the hall to the right. I shall tell All for One." Said the doctor.

Bertrand then sees the doctor head to another room. The grunts drag the homeless man away to the cells. Bertrand then gets a call from his other militia.

"Yes? Oh, a cult worshipping my corrupted. If you could lad, see if you can fine the cults leader. Scheduled a meeting with him and me at one of their meeting places." Said Bertrand into the phone.

Bertrand then leaves to head to his HQ to rest and have a cigar.

Till next time

Done! Sorry for the long wait, been working on my other fan fictions and what not. It was pretty obvious who was going to win the sparring match between Bakugo and Cole. Also some religious people might see the swamp monsters a gods wrath or a ancient gods kin. Blast cores will show up ever now and then, but not all the time. Next chapter, we have more training, Midoriya's first parkour training, and more. Also the power transfer device will show up later in the story and the homeless man will also show up as well. Also again, if you have any ideas on a new corrupted, please leave it in the reviews section. Peace.
