It was breaking, his mind and heart at the sight. He never felt such… hatred.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXG8HjiNCd
Izuku wasn’t registering the villain's words, all that consumed him was the sight of his little sister being strangled to death by this monster.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkG5HLZCja
Something ancient… and dark… was erupting from within his soul. Responding to his infernal desires.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zoQHa1hv0
A voice buried in his subconscious screamed at him.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzCC30f7hh
Phoenix: “Calm down! You’re not ready for-”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fawhjeecU
K: “Be silent, primordial one; let him enact his rightful bloody vengeance.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKmSk6a2vR
C: “Yes. Arise, our chosen prince!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSIPKyQDlR
Yes… any price was acceptable if he could save his family.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQUd95Kqj4
Broken Phase *^@& Activated
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQxbiIr9HG
And murder those who would threaten them.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvONxGvJ1hr
Izuku: “DIIIIIEE!!!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JwV7gYIrP
Two locks of his hair raised up like demonic flaming horns. But unlike before, these remained as he lifted his hand to end his enemies.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4ONdaUNjS
Tomura: “Nomu!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF2T5cFM3k
Even Tomura could understand the unnatural amount of danger he was in. Especially when he started to feel his limbs begin to bend.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeAd0YKoFs
Thankfully for him, Nomu quickly launched a heavy blow against Izuku. Prioritizing defense, Izuku brought up his shield just in time. Still, the blow was enough to send him flying.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhLqpgYds0
Tomura: “Don’t let up, forget what the Strategist wants, kill that brat!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpPhYOqAmj
Obeying, Nomu jumped into the sky after the dangerous child.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCPhpqoWrO
Tomura: “Ugh, and you people have the nerve to call yourselves heroes.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ahMS9duI7
Kurogiri: “Shigaraki Tomura.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaomPtLEfW
Tomura recovers from his near-death experience and turns around to face the newly arrived Kurogiri.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkhvw54k0Z
Tomura: “Black Mist… is Thirteen dead?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnqYBkmlti
Kurogiri: “I have incapacitated her; however, I’m afraid the students whom I could not scatter impeded me. And she was therefore able to escape with her life.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqfYQdmOUi
Tomura: “…Huh?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWK4GqbZm7u
Shigaraki starts scratching his neck in irritation.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgOEgnJBp2
Tomura: “Huuuhhh… first that Valkyrie wannabe, then that… demonic brat, and now this. It’s like bugs in the game systems or something.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIznVVOu0K
Tomura: “And if one of those brats left to get help, we’ll lose. Especially if Tornado comes here. It’s game over… for now. Get our strategist, and we’ll hop back.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuunQwmeaqa
Tomura’s frown suddenly turns into a smile.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggq7nbCDUI
Tomura: “Actually, we should at least finish what we started.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUf9x2l3jo
Tomura smiles as he turns to the still-shocked Tsuyu. Not only was the scene before bad enough to nearly make her hyperventilate, but then what happened Izuku…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvusQnd8Au
She has the abilities of a frog and also their instincts, the instincts of an animal. What she felt from Izuku was like being next to an apex predator. No… something far more primal and ancient than that.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltZpWe6UL0
The difference between a real apex predator and what she felt was like the difference between a wounded bunny and a dragon god.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFc1WbjHCx
Even if she wasn’t the target, it was enough to scare her stiff.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6OOkTFK9W
So nothing was stopping Tomura from just-
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoWR33wYmq
Kiri: “Get… away… from her.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHOLuazxZv
Tomura: “Now what?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37jqkwauMG
He and Kurogiri turned back to the ghost girl. They expected a girl on her last legs, instead, they find…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0tmIsypIY
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Z9Rs5czC
Kiri wasn’t fully knocked out by that creature, but she almost wished she was.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKjee9iIkM
Her skin was on fire.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZLTy0jpSI
Kiri: ‘Onii…’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr1jvc2soV
Something was wrong, and it was affecting her. The desire to rip and tear every living thing around, to offer their broken bodies to her green sun, was filling her mind. She could even feel her body morphing into something more monstrous.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTBvSo5Yrx
But she knew this wasn’t her and certainly not her brother, right? Regardless, she fought it down and got up. She won’t let these villains hurt her classmates.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSUgMbCDKT
She didn’t notice their faces painted by fear of what she looked like now. It didn’t matter; she had a job to do.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOgLhH7jua
Kiri: “Asui!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNdILbV0lj
Tsuyu: “Kero?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lJtX16wD5
Finally snapping out of her terror-induced stupor, Tsuyu looks at Kiri. Or more like in her general direction; she couldn’t stand to look at her.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10XMhqyBKa
Kiri: “Help Master Ninja; I’ll handle them.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYVzGYslr9
Tsuyu hesitated for a few seconds, wondering if she could even help him. But whether she wants to or not, it isn’t her choice to make.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyusibw8Er
Kiri: “NOW!!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8oGPslVUp
The command was delivered, and so Tsuyu jumped into the fray. Better to fight villain goons than make Kiri mad.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmDebzXkdm
As for Tomura and Kurogiri, they just let it happen, still too stunned by what they’re seeing.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa2UDX0LfU
Tomura: “What… are you?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k6DT3w157
Kiri breathes out soft puffs of green fire, trying to collect herself, before getting into her fighting stance.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLOdSLUYEV
Kiri: “A hero.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL9xCpkSVh
She bursts into action with a fist ready to deliver a near-fatal blow to the leader. But this snapped the two villains out of it.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDsHJgwGWT
Tomura backsteps while Black Mist goes to the front and opens a warp gate.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7fQmFMCqB
Kiri suddenly feels her blow get redirected to her face. An explosion of green smoke erupts from the impact, but she growls it off. She won’t let this stop her, so Kiri dashes to the left and then forwards to Tomura.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozYoLHVg47
Unable to keep up, Kurogiri was not able to create another gate in time. So that allowed Kiri to deliver a vile uppercut to Shigaraki. If he didn’t dodge at the last moment, he wouldn’t have a head. But the wind pressure of the attack did knock the severed hand off his face.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXI7TnqBZK
Kiri goes for a body blow but is covered by darkness and sent away.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeSFd3sKvg
Kurogiri: “Are you alright?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCqDsP9Oti
Tomura: “…No.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRwngoO05D
He places the hand back on his face and then starts roughly scratching his neck.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHohnM2Iwh
Tomura: “I want to strangle our strategist for giving us such a poor game guide. But… even I have to admit he couldn’t have predicted this.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48MtpcT8YV
Kurogiri: “Wise, those two have really helped calm you down; it would see-”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4L9mlbTcZ
He had to cut his words short as Kurogiri quickly transported himself and Tomura a few feet away. All to dodge an incoming green and white meteorite.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRqpm5Ffge
Its impact was heavy enough to cause a small crater and mushroom cloud of green smoke. Out of that smoke emerged an even more monstrous Kiri.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHblIYIl4y
Kiri: “Onii… stop… I… can’t… ”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugejIrmVLZ
She grabs her hand, trying to keep this fury under control. But her vision starts to blur as her mind is consumed with only one thing.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGslrIBkeh
Kill. Kill them all. Make them suffer.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5ObhUBSWM
Tomura: “Now! While she’s weakened!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv5jRoZv9u
The two villains charge the kneeling girl, ignoring the instinctual fear assaulting their minds.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJeXYrZUoP
Kiri: “No… get… away.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y6VZiOwpI
Before they got close, or before Kiri lost control, two other students sped past her sides.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXq9lYhekol
Bakugo: “Move, Ghost Girl!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmFc5rlqpw
The explosive boy was not grinning like a madman. Yeah, he was happy to finally get a chance to deal with that misty bastard, but this was too serious of a situation.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0hQMEyqh2
So he worked fast. He sent an explosion into the mist, quickly working out where the main body was and grabbing it. Then he slammed it into the ground, hand ready to end it if need be.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLntUP6ls7
As for Kirishima, he focused on saving his new friend. He launched a heavy blow into the body of Tomura, sending him skidding back.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcoviK0oAd
Kiri: “Rock… man…”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86eSD6L5ts
Kirishima: “Kiri! What happened to you!?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIH6O3WmmU
Kiri: “Run… I… ”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTkHjMLWb0
She couldn’t hold it back anymore, her hand reached out for Kirishima. To outsiders, it would seem like she was going to caress his face, but in reality, her hand sought his neck.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKHvaIhTBb
But luckily, for whatever reason, her form suddenly reverted to normal. The abrupt change in states was too much; Kiri’s eyes rolled back, and she collapsed.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nVsIomL1w
It was only due to a miracle that her form didn’t dissipate and return to Izuku’s mind. Or maybe… it was too much of a hazard to return to right now.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwvnxZvlHb
Either way, she was out, and everyone was left confused.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3RFZmRt23
Kirishima: “What… happened to her?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeatTJAOtwi
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS86LBkzUk6
While Kiri was going crazy, it was similar for Izuku. After all, he was the cause.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBfQakytXD
After the blow landed by the Nomu, he was sent flying over the sea and landed in the city zone. The black creature arrives shortly after and tries to deliver a fatal blow from above.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpLEgNr4V5
But it was stopped in mid-air and then slammed into the concrete below.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHehD0RmHk
Izuku: “Kneel!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOnjSz40ri
It does so, like a good mindless monster. Izuku creates a Psi-Sword, not out of his tie, but out of thin air. It crackles with white lightening and emerald flames born from screaming stars.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ28WvFScCI
The Nomu breaks out the telekinetic control in time to avoid a beheading, but not enough to avoid a slash across the chest. Good thing too, it can easily heal that.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFR9WlvOtN
The moment of shock from Izuku was enough for the creature to deliver a ground-shaking blow to the boy’s head. But instead of an exploding head as expected, its attack was stopped by a pinpoint-accurate shield.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpNLz7UhAG
Then the impossible happened; the Nomu was punched in the face. Normally, due to its shock absorption quirk, it wouldn’t feel much. But this punch was heavy and filled with something more than pure strength.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaQiPTI0Qa
The world itself commanded that it was to be blasted back into a building.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFVZeufCc2
Nomu attempted to get back up but was kicked back into the ground by Izuku. He teleported above the creature and dive-kicked into its chest.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEtxpPFeGs
Unleashing all of his built-up fury and hate, Izuku delivered blow after blow into the embedded Nomu. All the while, a question was beating inside his head.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnyro6LpN4
Izuku: ‘Why?’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkQjArbwgY
Another blow to its face.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaErAZ535bV
Izuku: ‘Why?’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqBvAtPeN6
Another blow to its brain.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAfQ7Jq6rt
Izuku: ‘Why does this…’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1J3slTGOJ
Another blow to its body.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthx7hyjMcK
Izuku: ‘Feel… so…’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvGeugo2Io
Another blow to its neck.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMDHvTprVv
Izuku: ‘GOOD!’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfW3GOjaMz
That’s when Izuku could feel a sickening smile creep onto his face. Seeing this, Nomu grabs Izuku’s cape and slams him into the ground next to him.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ03SI6IuK
Capitalizing, Nomu gets up and starts hammering Izuku into the ground. But it amounts to nothing but a stream of fire from Izuku’s maw engulfing Nomu’s face. That moment of sudden pain gave the mysterious boy the chance to cut off the legs of the creature.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6p9JFPGvb
Nomu falls back while his legs begin to heal, but not fast enough. Izuku sends a powerful wave of psychic force that propels Nomu back into the streets.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdqzOHrJ3u
Flying after him, Izuku collapses the nearby buildings and flings the debris into the recovering Nomu. The creature punches the assault away or tanks it, which only excites Izuku further.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAwOdLncsj
Continuing his charge while continuing to destroy the city around him. The coming clash, the smell of battle and carnage. It was too much; Izuku gave in to the infernal sensation.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFdkcX1Uqk
Izuku: “HAHAHAHA!!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdjyeU3bv1
He crackles like a madman as the two monsters clash in a flurry of blows. Some of the esper’s darkest impulses are brought to bear. No longer is he concerned with killing the Nomu, not yet anyway; he wants to make it suffer. He wants to drink deep the fear he can sense growing in the mindless creature.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtYLaPgwb9
More than that, he wants to enjoy this fight.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VHD7vYk7n
So he continues to cut and maneuver around it with otherworldly skill; all while the city crumbles around them.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohFy0ksUDe
As the clash continues, as the Nomu stares into the increasingly demonic eyes of the esper, it starts to happen. It feels… fear.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTB6K75t4s
The Nomu is a mindless artificial human; it shouldn’t feel or think anything. But for some reason, it does. There’s something in those eyes; no, there is more than one thing in there.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT17LyfI5y8
A legion of legions, beyond imagining, is within this child’s mind. And they’re staring back at it, laughing in insane glee.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEtIbXTep8
The Nomu takes a step back as a whimper escapes its mangled mouth.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXoosjH3lI
Izuku: “Oh? Are you starting to feel fear?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0a2rkcMIc
It’s not Izuku’s voice anymore; there are several hundred other voices mingled within. The Nomu takes another step back; its grin gone.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3V5gvHxXV
Izuku: “It sucks, doesn’t it? To feel fear? To feel useless, hopeless, and weak?!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QXzqfMBRR
The Nomu can barely fight back now. It just wants to run.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wNgaijyOj
Izuku: “Well, you should have thought about the consequences of hurting my family!! No hurts them, NO ONE!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeeFd7dly0
He uses another force blast to send the Nomu flying back and then shapes his sword into a curved design. Taking a strange stance, Izuku begins to swing the sword in elegant arcs.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPLUQn0370
Each swing sends a spear of energy into the body of the Nomu. When a few dozen of these green lances graced that scared body, Izuku ends the dance.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiR45ER1i7
Izuku: “Emerald Lancer.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4Wa27N7Av
A green fiery explosion erupts from the body of the Nomu. It was enough to blow off its left arm and severely damage its chest and legs. But that wasn’t the real problem, no.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwIh4FDrnT
The Nomu wasn’t healing.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUXqQcEO3S
That impossible fact was too much for the creature to handle. The Nomu began to crawl backward in terror.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeF3kNS8YSh
Izuku smirks, admiring his work while walking towards the whimpering beast. Every step burnt the ground beneath his feet, causing smoke to follow him wherever he walked.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2jgZWL6wF
Izuku: “I think I finally understand why Bakugo bullied me. It’s… fun. Having this power over you feels… euphoric. Especially since I know you deserve it. I wonder how it will feel when I pay back Bakugo for everything he has done to us. I can hardly wait.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52hRWgjGZV
Suddenly, the blissful smile disappeared and was replaced with cold apathy.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISbT1qitjz
Izuku: “But as for you, I don’t want to play with you anymore.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ1j4CGC0q
Izuku condensed his Psi Sword into a fine point within his palm. After a moment, the energy in his palm started to look like several small green stars.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllMXxFYNlY
He points it at the Nomu.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGARZ9tjyhS
Izuku: “Atomic Break-.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHTqzJMkqE
Broken Phase *^@&: Overloaded
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStDrUyuBXr
The veins on Izuku’s head become visible as blood drips from his nose.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD1JWGZ8Rl
Izuku: “Huh?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ6ohXJMhy
Then he begins coughing heavily, splashing spots of blood onto his palm. The flaming horns recede, and the power he once held disappears. Izuku drops to his knees in pain, his whole body alight with agony.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhrNM7wQ8F
But more than the pain, Izuku feels shame and self-hatred.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3w4QRXJRH
Izuku: ‘No, that couldn’t have been me. The things I said and thought…’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjSdAJ47WG
He was mad and wanted to protect Kiri. But that desire quickly exploded out of control and into something…
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX29TljLyex
Izuku: ‘Villainous…’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuNdg12jMe
How could something like that be a hero? A true hero isn’t supposed to revel in rage and bloodshed like that. They’re not supposed to be excited at the idea of killing or revenge.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCYsRtpIu6
Izuku: ‘How could I… what have I… Tatsu… Fubu… Kiri… Mom… what’s happening to me?’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrkkefgz7K
This inner turmoil wasn’t lost on the Nomu. The fear that consumed him slowly eroded. This was its chance. Carefully, it got up and approached the kneeling boy.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kgCLlpZxP
After a moment checking that it was safe, the Nomu smiled cruelly. It brought its fist in the air, ready to end this nightmare.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH0AgBfVLv
But then it was suddenly cold and frozen in place. It had to watch another student retrieve the child monster and retreat.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMImgiNSF8r
Izuku: “Todo… roki?”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf7iybygPe
Todoroki: “It won’t hold him for long. You need to pull yourself together. You might be the only one who can defeat him.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzw7kFJdOB
Izuku: “But… I can’t… not again.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswx7dZk05J
Todoroki: “…Then think of something. I’ll buy you as much time as I can.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYy3H96DTGN
Even now, he can hear the ice breaking.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMdc7gNQ45
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjVPsM8mxr
Before Izuku lost control over himself, Fubuki was still dealing with Apotheosis.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqxn2g8ruC
They were in quite a stalemate. Fubuki was quick enough to dodge most of his attacks, and Apotheosis was smart enough to not give her any ground.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQ9ZwJsqXW
But this couldn’t go on forever. Fubuki was getting tired, and Apotheosis was running out of power cells. So, they both decided to end this with one final charge.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1AsSaGzfD
Apotheosis pops in the last of his power cells and increases his shields to one hundred percent. He doesn’t think it will help, but on the off chance, it might stop her telekinesis.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YqczaXPxA
As for Fubuki, she gathers the rest of her strength and focus before charging forward.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAEG0hvIpa
Within moments, the deciding second arrived. Fubuki strained her eyes to find where the shield generator was but came up empty. Within that instant, she made the hard choice to just crush everything around his waist.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUc29TiysP
As for Apotheosis, he raised his power glove as she raised her hand.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdaknnEqny
He fired.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7NdKWELhO
She crushed.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDzL7jYLA8
He screamed in pain as he felt his body armor being crushed into his skin. The sound of broken ribs echoed in his ears; the pain was enough to miss the shoot. But not by much.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ147y1OBjju
Fubuki screamed in pain as she felt the skin on her shoulder burn away due to the energy beam. But more than that, the force was enough to dislocate it and send her flying back.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xIFwm6LCx
Hurt, Apotheosis stumbled back as he held his stomach.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9SKTBjsDu
Exhausted, Fubuki grabbed her shoulder and tried to get back up from the awkward fall. But the pain was breaking her focus and therefore her power.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeM8Yj4YFk
The winner is Apotheosis.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdYjUPdWhS
Seeing his victory close at hand, he swallowed the pain and stood up straight.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wnQYpYJwf
Apotheosis: “H-Ha, serves you right. You espers aren’t so special.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcrPvtGqc9
He walked towards the fallen Fubuki, fighting down any winces of pain that threatened to escape his mouth.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhEyAc44gg
Standing over her, he sneers before picking her up by the hair. He aims his power glove at her face.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznf3F9aGSr
Apotheosis: “Nice try sister, but I guess I’m just better than you. Don’t worry though; know that I will take good care of our brother and that bitch you call a sister.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwpH9HEaG0
Fubuki’s eyes twitch.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUloM5pO9qJ
Apotheosis: “Oh yes, I’ll make sure to take my sweet time torturing her. She deserves nothing less.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRNZ59os2W
Her hair whips up, and her eyes flare blue as the ground beneath them breaks apart. Instinctually, Fubuki sends psychic waves right into the mind of Apotheosis.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJnQVQWbIv
Apotheosis: “Wha-”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlauWotNslT
He drops her and grasps his head. Memories, awful memories, flood his mind.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxBS3REOza
His father.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM5wdQYyPj
The beatings.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7mejl9ilQ
The weakness.
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAVZ0oX5xw
The rejection
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAye7vxHXq1
The cell.

Apotheosis: “Make it stop! MAKE IT STOP!”

Granting his wish, Fubuki raises and uses a two-handed psychic blast to send him tumbling into some fallen trees. But she wasn’t done, she rose into the air and unleashed her signature attack.

The ground rumbles, and the cold air listens.

Fubuki: “Hell Storm!”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAQ4r7JOXQ
Instantly, a large tornado formed around Apotheosis. Dragging in rock, dirt, and even the fallen trees into this death trap. His screams of anguish were drowned out by the roars of the wind.

A few seconds later, the tornado dissipates as Fubuki descends back to the ground. She stands tall, ready to continue the fight and defeat this blight on her family.

As for Apotheosis, he emerges from the smoke still standing but severely damaged. His clothes were in tatters, his precious armor cracked, and even his face mask was destroyed. If his shield wasn’t destroyed before, it was now.

Apotheosis: “You… you’ll pay for making me relive that.”

But before the battle could continue, they both froze. Something has happened, but they both came to different conclusions.

Apotheosis: “There’s only one person that could have a quirk level over a hundred. Damn it, I need to get to Tomura. We’ll settle this later.”
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFpLueNyoD
Apotheosis runs off to not only get more data from All Might but to save Tomura if he needs it. Lord knows, that out of the three of them, he gets into more trouble.

And if Fubuki tried anything, he still has his Trap Foam. Fortunately, Fubuki let him go.

Why?
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUV3r6BM17
Because she knew who the true source of this power was.

Fubuki: ‘But how?’
444Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsMnKh1AKv
Even with the Psychic Disruptor still on, she can sense Izuku’s power. But it was all wrong; it was twisted and dark. Nothing like what it should be.

Her brother’s psychic signature was warm and inviting. This was anything but. However, it was still clearly her brother, and he needed her help.

Fubuki: ‘Izu…’

So she pops her shoulder back in place with her quirk, runs to wherever he might be, and prays she’ll make it in time.

There are a lot of references in this chapter. If you noticed them, great, but don’t mention it in the comments. It’s not blatant enough to warrant me having to say which fanfics (or more so other verses) I’m adapting yet.

I want to keep it a secret for now. So don’t ruin the surprise. But by all means, give your thoughts in a vague way.
