Chapter 13
The Second Event:
Watching from the left side, Mina scowled when Ochaco was picked up by Izuku and now sat on his back. Jealousy flamed within her and she continually mumbled and grumbled. "I am warning you don't get any funny ideas, Ochaco." She warned the brunette sternly and over on the right Bakugo laughed.
"Alright so now what?" Bakugo demanded wanting to know exactly what Izuku was planning. Looking back at the Hostile one time friend, he smiled.
"The plan is simple...you and Mina will keep any of the others from coming up from the sides to get the Number Band...Uraraka is the last line of defense...if they get past you she will make them regret it...by making them weightless." Izuku told all of them so they fully understood their roles.
"Why don't you just go too fast for any of them to get close?" Ochaco asked and Izuku was about to answer, but Mina quickly replied.
"He can't...there would be no way me or Bakugo could hold on...at most he probably can only go maybe at most 60 or 70 Miles per Hour." Mina told her.
"I could make you two weightless and then he could really floor it." Ochaco suggested and this time Bakugo answered.
"That won't work...at most it would bog Deku down and while me and the Alien Chick are floating...we can't blast someone that gets too close!" Bakugo stated somewhat politely for him and that really confused Izuku. He would have expected that his one time friend would verbally chastise Ochaco, call her some foul name. But he was not as hostile as he usually is.
"Kacchan is right...sure I could go faster...but at some point the drag from him and Mina would slow me down or they could lose their grips and float off...resulting in us being disqualified." Izuku said and growled something unpleasant under his breath. The four of them looked about and noticed that most of the others were looking at them. More importantly the Band that Ochaco had on her head. They all wanted it, since it was the highest valued Point Band for this Event. Bakugo had to give his for coming in second to the next in line and that person did the same to the one below them, then so on.
"We are going to Fuc...Freaking Kill this!" Bakugo said with a sinister smile and both Mina and Izuku looked at him now completely confused.
"Okay...now I am not only confused...but also...what would stop Kacchan from swearing?" Izuku asked himself as he tried to think what it could be. Mina though knew what would make a Boy completely change his personality. A Girl. She suspected that a certain ill tempered, egotistical jackass liked a certain meek and timid Girl named Ochaco Uraraka.

With loud roaring bellow, Bakugo unleashed a huge blast towards the Team consisting of; Momo Yaoyorozu, Shoto Todoroki, Eijiro Kirishima and Fumikare Tokoyami. Striking the two foot circular Shields that Momo had created for not only herself while sitting on Kirishima's back. She also for created them for Tokoyami who was on the left and Shoto who was on the right. At the same time, Shoto attempt to ice the ground underneath Izuku's feet. Their team's tactics were plain enough. Keeping to the side where Bakugo was and not Mina. "Mina...Kacchan...hop on the count of three and then hold on tight!" Izuku ordered and he counted. "1, 2, 3...HOP!" They both did and while they were briefly in midair he streaked a good forty Meters off to the left. Getting them way out of range of the other team.
"2 Minutes...37 Seconds to go." Ochaco said glancing up at the Time Clock and then returned her attention to the other Teams. The Team Consisting of Mahirao Ojiro, Yuga Aoyama, Tenya Iida and for some reason a girl that Izuku did not recognize. Were busy taking Point Bands from others. The first team that they had done that to was the one that Consisted of Mezo Shoji, Mineru Mineta and Tsuyu Asui. The Pink haired girl simply flashed Mineta her cleavage and the pervert threw his band to her. Not the most honest tactic, but it did work. Returning his attention to their own predicament, he noticed that other teams were now converging upon them. Wanting to get the large point value band and removing them from moving on to the next Event. The one on one Competition.
"Do that again, Deku!" Bakugo ordered loudly, indicating for him to once more do a short and quick movement to get them out range of those converging upon them. Izuku glanced about and inhaled sharply.
"Where?" Izuku pointed to all three directions that they could possibly go without stepping out of the Arena. Almost all of the other teams were moving in from those three directions and the only way Izuku could do that again would be to purposely run right into one of them. The chances of one of them being able to grab their Point Band was too high. Especially if the other was ready for such a maneuver. That only left one option that he could do.
"Well do something!" Bakugo demanded and Izuku gave him a small wry smile.
"Okay...all of you pull your T-Shirts over your mouths and noses...then close your eyes...this is...well this is going to be interesting." Izuku watched and made sure they obeyed his instructions. Then put his right hand upwards. Whirling his hand and arm around at a high rate of speed above them. A small funnel soon developed which caused the sand and dirt to cascade all around them. Completely obscuring them from view of the others. Then after a few moments stopped his arm and the dirt, sand and grit dropped from above. "Hop again!" He said and when they did he blurred between two of the Teams to several Meters away. Once more they were a good distance from any of them. "That was my last trick." Izuku announced and when he looked up at the Timer, he smiled just as it hit zero. The Event was over and his Team was able to hang onto the High Point Band.

Leaving the Arena once more, Mina looked down at herself and grimaced. "Got to take another Shower." She whispered over at Izuku who once again was remarkably still clean. While she, Ochaco and even Bakugo seemed to be completely covered in Dirt, Sand and Grim. With Ochaco they both headed once more to the Locker Room to Shower and put on a Clean Uniform.
"I got Sand in places that...ARRGGGH!" Bakugo growled as he stormed towards the Boys Locker Room to do the same thing. But stopped just at the door to the Room. "I...We need to talk after I get done...there is something...do not go anywhere!" He ordered entering the Locker Room and Izuku inhaled softly. The few times in the past when Bakugo wanted to talk to him, it generally ended up with Izuku burnt and bleeding. Though that could not happen now, but still he felt anxious and a bit nervous. Someone cannot completely forget how it felt to be harmed and tormented. Those painful memories remain no matter how hard he tried to forget them. To come to terms with those fears. They would always be there. Before he was actually ready, Bakugo returned. "Outside." The other said pointing towards one of the doors that led outside the Stadium. Once outside, Bakugo glared about making sure no one was nearby. Clenching his fists, Izuku swallowed heavily.
"If...I am not fighting you Kacchan and I am not running. Sooo if that is the reason you wanted me to come out here...then I am going back inside." Izuku stated firmly and his one time friend shook his head.
"That is not...I need your...advice." Bakugo whispered the last word and Izuku gasped audibly. Staring at him wide eyed.
"What? Wait did you just say you need my advice?" Izuku asked and Bakugo grated his teeth together.
"Yes! Do not think for a minute that I cannot handle this myself...but you are the only one out of the whole group of No Nothings...Extras in our Class that...you and the Alien Chick are...together and have been for awhile." Bakugo again looked about to make sure no one overheard the conversation.
"First...her name is Ashido to you...Second do not ever refer to the others in our Class as No Nothings or Extras." Izuku declared and Bakugo was tempted to tell him to go fuck himself. But held his tongue and nodded minimally.
"Fine! You and her are together...you are a couple!" Bakugo growled and then took a deep breath. "I take it that you and A...sh...i...do have come to...an understanding about...the personal one on one Challenge." Izuku bit his bottom lip.
"Yes we have...and we both have agreed to do our best...not that we want to fight each other...but we both will not hold back." Izuku was not exactly thrilled with the prospect of fighting his Girlfriend and he suspected Mina was feeling the same thing. "Why do you even care?" He asked and Bakugo closed his eyes.
"My first challenge Fight is against..." Bakugo grimaced. "Uraraka...and I...I am concerned that I...I do not want to hurt her." He once more whispered most of what he just said. Izuku was both stunned and shocked at the same time.
"You like Uraraka?" Izuku gasped out in disbelief and Bakugo glared at him angrily. Then his face which was contorted, softened and he slowly nodded. That blew Izuku's mind. That his one time tormentor, the one that was generally hostile. Actually liked someone. "Talk about complete opposites." Bakugo glared at him.
"What do you mean by that?" Bakugo asked angrily as his fingers began to crackle with small explosions. Izuku chuckled.
"You and Uraraka are complete opposites...she is timid, kind and well a really nice person. While you Kacchan are...to sum it up you are a complete Asshole...an egotistical, self absorbed...Asshole." Izuku said and Bakugo continued to glare at him. Then looked away.
"All I want to know is...do you think she will hate me...if I...should I...do I not fight her...not go full out against her?" Bakugo asked nervously, biting his bottom lip and looking down at the ground. Izuku shook his head.
"She will hate you more if you go easy on her and she finds out you did...she will go all out against you...you need to respect her enough to do the same...as for getting hurt...that is all part of becoming a Hero." Izuku told him and Bakugo inhaled sharply.
"You tell anyone Deku...what I...I will kill you!" With that Bakugo stormed back inside not even really looking at Izuku. Who stood there for several minutes, completely awed at the fact that Bakugo actually admitted that he liked someone and was concerned about hurting her. Returning inside, he was tempted to tell Mina. Before he could, she grabbed his hand tugging at him towards the Monitors near the Food Court.
"I get to fight Aoyama in the first round...look you get to go up against Todoroki." Mina stated pointing at the nearby Board that showed who would be facing who in the first round of challenge fights. (To the Readers...I am going to change some of the Fights and who will be fighting who. Along who wins certain rounds. Also you can watch the first two Episodes of MONSTER GIRL DOCTOR at wcostream dot com/playlist-cat/Monster-Girl-Doctor. Or do a search for Watch Anime Dub. It will be in English.) The first Fight was about to begin and it was Tenya Iida against Mei Hatsume.
"Lets go watch." Izuku suggested and they both went up to the Class 1-A Box where they found almost all of their Classmates.
The First Round:
Grumbling as he left the Arena, Tenya continued to complain as he arrived. He had been duped into basically being someone displaying Hatsume's creations and only won because the strange Girl forfeited after a few moments into their round. Tenya felt like a complete idiot, more then when he made a complete ass out of himself crossing the Canyon in such an less then a dignified manner. Flopping in one of the seats, he barely heard his Cell Phone Ring. Taking it out of his Pocket he went back inside to have a measure of privacy. Now it was Mina's turn against Aoyama.
Dodging another of his Belly Laser Blasts with utter ease, Mina smiled widely. All the time she had incorporated her Dance Moves into her Martial Skills, was actually proving to be a good idea. Flipping backwards she landed on her hands and sprung over another Blast. At the same time she tossed with pinpoint accuracy a wade of Corrosive Acid at the Device on Yuga Aoyama's belt. He gasped as his pants began to fall. Sliding closer on some what could be considered barely Acid, she closed in and with a huge mile. She hit the other with a devastating uppercut. Knocking Yuga completely backwards and unconscious. She then did a victory dance, laughing as she turned her smile up at Izuku who smiled back at her. "Got to remember to kiss him a lot later." She whispered, moving over to make sure that Yuga was not hurt to badly.
Creating a Shield, Momo blocked another striking attack from Fumikare Tokoyami's Dark Shadow. At the same time, she created a Flash Bomb and tossed it towards her opponent. During their Strategy Session, she had learned that Fumikare's Dark Shadow had a severe weakness to intense light. As he gasped in pain and moved further back himself. Momo silently thanked Izuku Midoriya for providing her with a possible tactic to be used against Fumikare. Dodging another strike, she created and threw another Flash Bomb and then another. Then she stopped and smiled broadly. Standing right in the open, she dropped her shield. Fumikare believed that this was his opportunity to turn the tide against her. Before he could, she pointed at his feet. He looked down and groaned. She had forced him out of the Arena with the last Bomb. She had won without laying a finger on him. "You need to find a way to overcome intense light my friend." Momo said casually and Fumikare chuckled.
"I guess I will have to work on that...well done my Friend." Fumikare said back and then they both left the Arena. Like the two other Rounds, they both ignored the cheers and applause from the Spectators in the stands. Up in the Student Box, Izuku stood. It was his turn, glancing over to one side of the Box. He watched as Shoto stood as well.
"Kick his ass...Izzy." Mina told him and Izuku smiled down at her. Then walked with Shoto down to the Arena.
Standing on the Arena Platform, Izuku looked over at Shoto. "You cannot beat me with just half of your Quirk, Todoroki...you got to go all out." Izuku told him and Shoto shook his head. Convinced he could do it without using his Father's side of his Quirk. Stomping his right foot down, he projected a huge wave of ice towards Izuku. Who did nothing to avoid it and he was encased within the Ice. That concerned Shoto. He knew it could not be that easy and Izuku with his powers could have moved out of the way instantly. Then without warning the Ice Block exploded and Izuku was standing exactly where he had been before the Ice had trapped him. "I can do that every time...or I can..." In a streaking blur Izuku was gone. "do this." He said now behind Shoto. Spinning around, the other sent another wave of Ice towards him. This time he simply avoided it.
"I am not using...I will beat you with my Ice." Shoto declared attempting again to hit Izuku and failed. Realizing that the other was just too fast, even in the confined area of the Arena. At the edge of the Arena, Endeavor glared at Shoto and then at Izuku. His hands began to melt the railing, openly frustrated with the situation.
"There is no other way that you can beat me...you have to know that...you have to use both of your Power...it is your Power! Not your Father's or anyone else...it is yours...So use it!" Izuku stated trying valiantly to get Shoto to use his full potential against him. Shoto simply shook his head.
"I rather loss then...NO I won't do it!" With that Shoto turned and strode proudly over to the side of the Arena. Stepping off the Platform. Purposely losing to Izuku. The Half Ice and Half Fire Teen glared up at his Father and smiled broadly. He then went back inside leaving Izuku with a very disturbing and somewhat dissatisfying victory. After a minute he left as well and before he could make his way back to the Class 1-A Box. A large fiery Man stood before Shoto openly glaring at his Son.
"In the Future...BOY...you will not embarrass me like you have! Ending your fight like that...not using your full potential and then submitting by stepping out of the Arena!" Endeavor growled angrily. "That you will not do again!" Shoto smiled up at him and shrugged.
"There was no point in me fighting Midoriya...he was going to win that regardless on what I did." Shoto said calmly and then noticed Izuku. "He could avoid my Ice and if necessary escape it with relative ease. So I just quit." He then ducked passed his Father and walked on. Leaving Endeavor fuming with anger. He now glared at Izuku.
"Thank you for trying to...you tried to get him to.." Endeavor whispered barely audibly, then stormed off to vent his anger elsewhere. Izuku let out a sigh and then rejoined his Class in the Student Box. Finding it confusing and strange that Tenya Iida was gone and his name was removed from the Next Round. Checking over the list, he was joined by Mina.
"We lucked out again...I am going up against Momo next and you...Kirishima." Mina said as she pointed at the names. She glanced over to see Momo smiling at her. Off to one side Bakugo was not really paying attention. He had faced off against Ochaco and won. Now he was concerned that he had harmed her during their bout. After all she was down with Recovery Girl. Easing over next to the other, Izuku leaned back against the wall.
"If you are worried about her...go check on her." Izuku whispered to Bakugo who ground his teeth together.
"You better be right about her not hating me...or...I will Kill you!" Bakugo growled, leaving the Box and Izuku suspected that his one time friend was going to subtly check on Ochaco's condition. Not wanting her to know or anyone else that he liked her. Izuku chuckled lightly. When Mina and Momo began to leave for their bout, he quickly wished his Girlfriend luck and encouraging her to win.
Dodging to one side, Mina found it somewhat annoying that Momo had created an Acid Resistant Shield. So whenever she threw her Acid at the other it did not even slow her opponent down. Forcing her to defend herself without the aid of her Acid. To her dismay Momo was more adapt at hand to hand fighting, so even her incorporated Dance Fighting techniques were not completely effective. When Momo landed a good solid blow in Mina's stomach, she became worried. Sliding on her weaker Acid back away from the other Girl. Mina tried using her Acid Veil in an attempt to at least give herself some time to consider another tactic to use against Momo. But unfortunately Momo was ready for that and had tossed a Flash slash Smoke Bomb a few feet from her. Both momentarily Blinding her and with the Smoke billowing around her. Concealing the other Girl from her. Mina did not even know where to expect an attack and was not ready for when suddenly someone grabbed her Shoulders and flipped her off the Platform. Effectively ending the Round. Standing she grimaced. "I lost." She whispered and meekly returned to the Student Box. Where thankfully her Boyfriend was all set to comfort and console her. Until it was his turn.
"I am so screwed...he is going to kick my Ass." Eijiro whispered as he stepped up onto the Platform. When the list had been updated, he had felt at first elated to go up against Izuku. After thinking about it, he determined his chances of winning were about a Million to One. Sure he could harden himself, but all Izuku had to do was grab him like he did that Villain at the Simulation Training Joint and remove him from the Arena in a blink of an eye. Or just as easily beat the living crap out of him in seconds. "Stop this...it is unmanly to think that way...got to think of a way to overcome his Speed." He said to himself, unable to think of anything that would actually work. Unlike his prior fight against Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, he was able to defeat the other by going all out with his hardening and winning the arm wrestling contest. This time against Izuku his only option would be to harden himself to his limit and perhaps try to tackle the Speedster. Which he knew would be virtually impossible. He was no where near fast enough. When Nemuri signaled for them to start with a crack of her whip, Eijiro was about to make his move but before he could even start to harden himself. Izuku had created a wind funnel and blew him off the Platform in a huge gust of wind. "FUCK!" He growled with disappointment. "He did exactly what I expected him to do and I had no idea on how to stop him." Eijiro grumbled as Izuku was announced the winner.
Returning to the Class 1-A Box Seats, Izuku walked over to the Screen where Mina was attempting to contain herself from laughing. She pointed at the Screen and started to openly giggle. "You get to go up against Momo next." She said smiling broadly and Izuku groaned. One of those that he suspected could come up with a way to defeat him. That had been discussed a lot at the Strategy Session. Creations that she could in essence defeat him and his speed. Looking at the Screen again, he noticed that whoever wins him or Momo then they get to go up against Bakugo next. Since Tenya was disqualified for not attending, Bakugo automatically won. He nervously looked over at Momo who smirked at him.
Streaking away from Momo's Flash Bombs, Izuku considered his options. The Creationist was now tossing large Sheets all about the Platform. Each one he knew was coated with an industrial strength epoxy that if he stepped on any of them. He would stick to instantly. Another tactic that she had come up with at the Strategy Session. Limiting his ability to simply run at her and push her off the Platform like he had done to Kirishima. He then noticed that She was also reducing the area that he could move on with her now constantly making basically large Fly Paper Traps all over the place. It took him about two seconds to realize that the large sheets had glue on both sides, so when she threw one down. It stuck to that spot. Half the surface of the platform was now covered and he still had no idea on how to defeat her. Unfortunately she had come up with different ways to circumvent or overcome anything he could do. Even using Speed created Wind Funnels. "Think...Izuku...think...there has to be a way?" He muttered dodging another of the large sheets. Then he saw it, Momo was breathing hard and she seemed somewhat tired. "She is almost out of Limpets." Izuku said with a huge smile. The Girl had overdone her Creations and made too many. That meant for him all he had to do is move along the small gaps in between the Sheets and perhaps get close enough to win this bout. Rushing at about 1/10th speed, he made his way between the gaps and neared her. She strained to create at least one more Sheet, but before she could focus enough willpower to do so. Izuku simply picked her up and set her down off the Platform. He had decided at the beginning that he would not actually bring himself to hit or strike her in any fashion.
"Next time Midoriya...next time I will beat you." Momo stated with a small smile and Izuku smiled back.
"You almost got me with those sticky sheets...a few more and I would have been done for." Izuku told her and Momo laughed.
"THE NEXT BOUT WILL START IN 20 MINUTES. WE NEED TIME TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT ALL THOSE...STUCK DOWN SHEET." Nemuri announced watching as Cementos started to form cement over the platform and over the huge Flypaper Sheets. Which gave Izuku time to get a snack and prepare himself to take on Katsuki Bakugo, his one time tormentor and now his overall nemesis.
Chapter 14
The Final Challenge:
For Izuku Midoriya, he knew eventually he would have to once more come face to face against Katsuki Bakugo. Once more have to fight him. Ever since the First Training Session where he tied his one time Tormentor in Binding Tape, he knew that soon he would have to face Bakugo and this time it would not be as simple as wrapping him in Binding Strips. No this time it would be an all and out fight. Thankfully because of his Speed Powers, no one could actually see that his hands were shaking or his right leg was bouncing uncontrollably with anxiety. For years and perhaps even now he was afraid of his one time friend. He tried not to remember all the times that the other had inflicted harm upon him, or belittled him or tormented him relentlessly. Not remember when he was told to kill himself and hope to be reincarnated into someone that was not a worthless, Quirkless loser. All those thoughts and memories returned once more, it had been the same during the Training Session. But he was able to control that fear to do what had to be done. He hoped it would be the same this time. "React...do not overthink it...just react." He whispered, nervously waiting for the final fight to begin.
As soon as Nemuri cracked her whip, Bakugo roared and unleashed a devastating Blast straight at Izuku. Almost taking him completely by surprise. Almost. Thankfully his reflexes were also fast otherwise the fight would have been essentially over in that moment. Whirling and streaking over to the right, he came close to be hit again as Bakugo unleashed another Blast. right where he ran to. "HA! You are so predictable Deku!" Bakugo said with a sneer, firing another Blast to the left this time and then two others afterwards. Each time coming close to striking him. "I watched you! I am not stupid Deku! I watched and noticed that when you avoid an attack you move to a certain direction each time!" He thought jumping to the right and at the same time firing another Blast to the right. Almost catching Izuku in another Blast. "FUCKING REFLEXES!" He growled angrily, but he also smiled. He had surmised that Izuku would come from the right in an attempt to attack him, so as he jumped to the left he fired a Blast coming close to hitting him as he blurred forward.
"Somehow he knows what I am going to do before I can do it." Izuku whispered bending to one side and he could feel the heat flow over him from Bakugo's last Blast. Ducking to the left he almost moved right into another Blast from Bakugo. Rushing backwards and away, blurred to the left around the edge of the Platform. Then skidded to a stop when he within an inch ran right into another Blast. It was taking a toll on him, even though he had not been hit yet. Dodging and avoiding the Blasts did have a drawback on him, it was wearing him out. He knew that in time his attention would slip and Bakugo would strike him with a good Blast. He had to think of a way to get closer and end this Fight, before that happened. But Bakugo was not allowing him to do that. Somehow predicting where he would move to and blasting in that direction just at the right time. So that only left him one option, to get close enough to attack Bakugo. He would have to run through one of the his Nitroglycerin Blasts and hope he could land a blow himself.
The Observers:
"Watch closely Meisha...this is a very important moment...one that defines us all." The Old Woman said with a small smile. She had moved from staring at her Mother who was sitting on the edge of her seat watching the fight between her Father and her adoptive Uncle. She had watched this moment several times over the years on the Global Network. It was one of those moments that all Flashes needed to see and learn from. Where the first Flash learned that the Speed Force was more then just something that could break through the time barrier. The others were also paying close attention. They all had watched this moment on either a Television or on the Global Network. Never actually seeing it as it happened so many years ago.
The Moment:
Resolved in his decision, Izuku rushed straight at Bakugo and swallowed heavily. He knew from past experiences that when hit by one of the others blasts, it hurt. It hurt a lot. With a sneering laugh, Bakugo unleashed a blast with both hands. "Gotcha Deku!" He announced and as the Heat and Concussive Force of the Blast struck him. Izuku pushed himself forward, grunting heavily with pain. Though for some reason the Pain was not as bad as he remembered. In fact it was in a word tolerable. With an ultra fast glance he looked at his exposed hands and watched in surprise as the burns that were being inflicted upon him just as quickly healed instantly. A strange tingling sensation flowed through him and the only reference of that feeling was when he used the Speed Force to enter the Time Stream. But this sensation was not as intense. All this occurred in less then a second and when he emerged right in front of Bakugo, he was close enough to finally strike and with several good punches. Knocked Bakugo down for the count.
With that Izuku had won the Sports Festival and as he waited for the Award Ceremony he felt better. He no longer felt afraid of Bakugo. "Uhm...Izzy that was...something." Mina said as she stood waiting with him for when All Might would present the Medals to him, Bakugo and Momo. First, Second and Third Place. "Neat trick with healing yourself...but...uhm...it did not completely work...your hair." Mina gestured upwards and Izuku ran his hand through what was left of his hair. It was no longer curly and half of it was gone. Burned off from running through Bakugo's Blast. She like the rest of the Class had watched in amazement as somehow Izuku was able to heal himself almost instantly while being bombarded by the Heat and Flames of the Blast.
"Guess I will need a haircut." Izuku said feeling some spots that were shorter then others and some longer. Mina giggled.
"Yeah you do." Mina told him smiling right up to when Bakugo approached. Recovery Girl had brought him around with smelling salts and as soon as he was checked over, he insisted on talking to Izuku before the Award Ceremony.
"DEKU! Don't think for a moment that you are better then me...Just because you beat me! You got lucky...I had you...I...Next time I will Kill you!" With that Bakugo turned and was about to leave. "If you ever tell anyone...what I said to you before...I will destroy you not just kill you! He stalked towards the exit screaming at Nemuri and anyone nearby that he ultimately refuses to except the Second Place Medal. That it was a worthless piece of medal.
"He will never change..will he?" Mina asked and Izuku shook his head. Smiling slightly.
"Actually I think he has changed some...he is not so...well hostile or aggressive as he once was." Izuku said to her, not about to mention that he suspected that Bakugo's small changes in his personality was due to a certain Girl. A Girl that was as he said, a complete opposite of the other.
The Observers:
"He won! Great Grandmother...He won!" Meisha announced with a huge smile and the old Woman laughed. She knew he had won, the others also knew so it was not really a surprise to them.
"Yes he did...though that is not why we came here...it was for you to actually see one of our greatest and most important aspects of our Power. It will take you time to fully understand what the Speed Force allows us to do..not just use it to go through time." The old woman then looked at her Great Grandchild sternly. "To that end...you will also have to remember the Rules that are associated with Time Travel." She declared and the young girl smiled at her.
"I already know Great Grandmother...I read them way before we came to this time...I know all about the most important rule. That we do not alter or change the timeline because it could have dire circumstances to our present or future." Meisha stated and all the older ones there smiled proudly at her.
"It is vastly important that you remember that...we are all at one time tempted to change something about the past...like Inko there tempted to go back in time to stop Shinjo Shinigorki from..." The Old woman winced when she noticed Inko closed her eyes and small tears began to fall from her eyes. It had been one of those times when even being ultra fast could not save everyone. It was something that after returning to their present they would have to remind Meisha several times.
"Save who you can...even we cannot save everyone." Inko intoned and Meisha nodded.
"There is one more special moment that we need for you to witness...so Izuka, Inko...if you would not mind." The Old Woman said pointing off to the East. They all sped off, but waited until they were a good thousand miles away before accessing the Speed Force. Not wanting Izuku to sense them again.
Heroes:
Following the Sports Festival and a small celebration in the Backyard of his House with Mina's Parents and his Mother. Izuku discovered later that perhaps it would have been better to let Bakugo win. Being the center of attention or a celebrity really sucked for someone who did not want any acclaim. When he and Mina arrived at the Train Station the next day to go to School, he was mobbed by at least a hundred or so people. All wanting Selfies and Autographs. All wanting to ask him questions. To escape the scene, he simply picked Mina up Bridal Style and fled. "Guess for a while we can't take the Train." Mina commented as she held tight with her right arm around his shoulders and her left hand clasped firmly on her right forearm. She was somewhat concerned for a second or two that the way he was carrying her, that someone would be able to look up her skirt. But at the Speed he was going, even if someone tried they would not be able to actually notice her panties. She decided from now on she would wear a pair of shorts under her Skirt just in case. Other Girls in Class were wearing shorts under their Skirts for an entirely different reason. With the two Class Perverts always trying to look up them it made sense. She did not have to, mainly due to that Izuku had threatened to strip them naked and dropping them off in the Middle of the City if either Mineta or Kaminari even tried to look up her Skirt or do anything perverse that involved her. It did not take long for Izuku to arrive at the UA Entrance, to both of their dismay the front Entrance was almost blocked by Reporters all wanting to interview not only Izuku, but most of Class 1-A.
"Hang on...we are going in another way." Izuku told her and she clamped down tightly against him. Then she squealed as he basically ran up the Security Boundary Wall and then down the other side.
"I did not know you could do that." Mina said as he set her down and she flattened out her Skirt making sure that it no way exposed her Panties or too much of her thighs. Izuku shrugged.
"I did not know either...but I figured if I can run across Water without sinking then...why not up a wall." Izuku told her and they both headed for the Classroom. Where Aiwaza informed them that today they would be choosing their Hero Names. Which would be supervised by Nemuri Kayama.
When it was her turn Mina had planned on going with the one name she adored more then anything else. THE ALIEN QUEEN, unfortunately Nemuri shot it down and she was stuck with PINKY. She was not exactly thrilled with the her Heroine name, she wanted to be called the Alien Queen believing it was the coolest name she could think of. With a small smile, she decided that in time when she was an established heroine. Then she would change it from Pinky to Alien Queen and not care if anyone approved or not. "Pinky...well that is...it is really cute." Izuku whispered to her and she smiled over at him. Now uncertain if she would change it. If Izuku liked it then she could live with that name.
"Your turn Midoriya...so what name are you going to use?" Nemuri asked and Izuku walked up to the front holding his Small Chalk Board. He held it out to those in Class and announced it proudly.
"THE FLASH!" Izuku declared and before the Teacher could say anything. "This is the name I am going to use...no matter what." He stated and Nemuri exhaled softly then nodded.
"I guess it will work...though I kind of think it really works for you. Especially when you can tell anyone that you will be back in a Flash or I will do that in a Flash. It could be your catch phrase. A lot like when All Might lets everyone know that HE IS HERE!...so who is next?" Nemuri said and Izuku went back to sit next to Mina. She was scowling slightly.
"I should have been more insistent about being called the Alien Queen." Mina muttered with disappointment, then as Izuku sat she leaned towards him. "THE FLASH...huh...I kinda like it...though please don't do that I WILL BE BACK IN A FLASH too much with me...it sounds really silly." She told him and he shrugged. The next phase that happened on that day, it was time to select an Agency for a week long Internship.
The 124 Years into the Future:
"Are you sure Mother...I mean if you are right then everything...all of this is just wrong?" Mathew asked as his Mother nodded, though she wished she had been wrong. But she was a Scientist and what she had discovered was essentially that their time entire past was a mistake.
"Yes Matty...I am certain I am right...our entire past has been altered...and I think I know who did it." Sara his Mother stated once more pointing at the Monitor. Mathew knew why his Mother had spent the last five years creating a Machine to analyze the Timelines in hopes that perhaps there would be hope to bring her Husband, Mathew's Father back.
"Zane...he altered it didn't he?" Mathew asked and his Mother nodded again. "How could he do that...he died when...when Dad died...didn't he?" He swallowed back tears at the memory of his Father sacrificing himself to stop Zane. When the Brilliant but insane killer had tried to siphon his Father's Speed Force into an ultimate Weapon designed to rip apart whole Continents. His Father had no choice but to give his life making sure that Zane could not accomplish his plan. Later his Mother discovered that Zane had somehow reversed engineered a way for him to acquire the Powers of the Current Flash. Namely her Husband Mathew's Father. "Then our history is...?" He said to his Mother and she nodded.
"Altered from what it should have been. Izuku Midoriya was not assassinated. The Quirk Plague did not occur...which from what I am able to surmise...Zane was the cause of the Plague or rather the complete erasure of a good portion of those with Quirk Powers. More importantly the Creation of Hero Judges never happened." She told him and he inhaled sharply. Remembering from History Class all of those events. His Ancestor the Original Flash was subject to three Assassination Attempts, the last one being successful. Thankfully for the Midoriya Lineage, he and Mina Ashido spent a night together and nine Months later their Daughter was born. Then there was the Quirk Plague, an illness that erased 95% of all Quirk Powers among the Populace. Which left the Government its only option at the time. The Creation of the Hero Judges. The Judges were the Police, Judge and Executioner all rolled into one. They would dispense Justice as they saw fit. Even right up to today the Hero Judges were active. Someone Jaywalking could be executed if a Hero Judge deemed the person was not redeemable.
"So what can we do?" Mathew asked and his Mother smiled.
"You can go back into the past and stop Zane from assassinating Izuku Midoriya...change the past back to the way it is supposed to be." Sara his Mother stated. She then told him the bad news if he agreed. It took him several minutes to think it over. He had a lot to lose if he did agree, for one his Mother. But the World now was a dark and dismal place. There was essentially no joy in life. No one smiled or laughed. So he had no choice, he agreed to go. For the next day, he spent as much time as he could with his Mother. Wanting to create and have as many good memories he could get. Which Sara wanted as well. She knew if it worked, she had calculated and come up with that the change would be instantaneous. That there probably would be a Mathew Midoriya. But it would not be this one. A completely different Mathew that hopefully still had his Father, her Husband along with several other Midoriya Family Members.
The Past:
Slumping against a Wall, Horkak Zane coughed up Blood. He never realized how harmful it was to use the Speed Force to enter the Time Stream. Though he did theorize it was due to his limited access to the Speed Force that caused so much pain and internal damage. He know knew that it was a one time thing, any other attempts would be fatal. So after a few minutes he did was able to confirm that he had arrived at the right Time Period. The main problem he faced though was that he was in no condition to kill anyone. So he would have to rest and recover for several days before he even tried to kill Izuku Midoriya. The First and Original Flash. Zane had read and reread everything he could about his target. "Have to make sure that both first two attempts fail." He muttered to himself as he limped down the sidewalk, seeking a good place to hide until he was well enough. "Also...no harm must come to Mina Ashido...otherwise a paradox could.." He had no idea what the Paradox would actually do to him, if there was no Future Flashes in it. Would he even exist. Would he be erased all together. He was not willing to take any chances on that. He found it strange that when he was traversing the Time Stream he saw glimpses of it changing and reforming into the one he knew from one he didn't. When he found a boarded up building, he simply removed several of the boards and went inside. Finding a nice clean spot among the debris, he laid down to rest. Allowing his limited access to the healing aspects of the Speed Force to help in his recovery.
The Ashido Residence:
"So what Agency are you going to intern with, Izzy?" Mina asked looking at her own list of Agencies that had put in a request for her. She glanced over at his and with a small proud smile noticed that it was considerably longer. When she saw one in particular she inhaled sharply. "Don't even think about that one there." She pointed to MT AGENCY and he chuckled. Finding it funny how someone with Mina's usual flamboyant personality could be so jealous. Though from what her Mother Keiko had told him, this was Mina's first full blown relationship with someone. That Mina had a deep rooted fear that because of the way she looked, he would discover that he wanted to be with someone normal. So her Mother advised him eventually she would no longer view other Girls as potential enemies or threats. Though it would take time.
"No...I was not even considering that one...actually I was thinking about..." Before Izuku could say, he felt a familiar tingling sensation flow over him. Standing quickly, he walked over to the Living Room Window and turned back towards Mina. "Where are your Parents?" He asked with concern and she glanced upstairs. "Go up there with them...hurry." He ordered her and she reluctantly stood. Walking over to stand next to him.
"What is it? What's wrong?" Mina asked and Izuku held his breath. Staring out the window, she saw it. Some type of Electrical Field that seemed to grow larger. Suddenly a person fell out of the Field and landed with a crash on the Yard. Izuku blurred outside standing between the Intruder and the Ashido House. With his hands clasped into fists. The arrival looked up from the ground and smiled.
"Hiya Gramps...nice to meet you." The other said right before he passed out.
The first thing Izuku did was call Aiwaza and All Might. Really not knowing what else to do. Especially since it was extremely obvious that the unknown person that just appeared out of nowhere was related to him. Mainly due to that this stranger looked almost like him, though he did have brown tinted green hair and bluish green eyes. Mina had asked Izuku upon seeing the other if he was a long lost brother. Now with the two Pro Heroes present, along with Recovery Girl who used smelling salts to bring the intruder around. They all watched as the young man awoke and then smiled looking directly at Mina. "Hi Grandma...now I see where I got these from." He ran his hand through his hair and touched two small horns. Mina gasped audibly.
"Okay...who are you and why are you here?" Izuku demanded and the young Man smiled at him.
"Isn't it obvious Gramps...I am Mathew Midoriya..one of your future relatives...though you are actually my..Great, Great, Great, Great and Great Granddad." Michael said counting off each Great on his right fingers. "As to why I am here...it is to prevent you from being assassinated and turning the Future into a literal Hell." He told them and watched as each of them looked from him to each other. "You all might want to sit down...this is a long, long, long story." Mina was more then interested as she listened with the others as Michael basically told them the whole devastating tale. Though what really concerned and interested her was the fact that after the second attempt on Izuku's life was that they spent the night together. With the result that she ended up being a Teenage Mother. When Michael was done an hour later, both Aiwaza and All Might just stared at the young man in shock. Unable to fathom all the details.
"So you are telling me that on the second attempt on Midoriya's life..." Aiwaza swallowed heavily and found it hard to breath.
"That 11 of his Fellow Classmates...did not...they were killed." Michael said and Aiwaza began to grind his teeth together.
"Who...Who were they...which ones?" All Might asked sadly and Michael named them off. "First and foremost...if what you say is true...which I am leery to accept that you are actually from the future...but young..well our Midoriya says it is possible...we need to make sure that none of these attempts happen." He stated firmly and Michael chuckled lightly.
"That is why I am here...to stop Zane from succeeding...return the future into what it is supposed to be." Micheal declared.
"When I went into the Future myself by accident...it was clear that I was not assassinated...that means that this Zane did alter or change what should happen. So you are from that future where I did die. Okay am I the only one completely confused by this whole thing?" Izuku asked and he could tell that even Michael was confused about it.
"My Mother believes that if we stop Zane from killing you...then the Future will go back to it's proper path and where I came from will never have existed...which I can tell you that it would not be that bad if it did disappear." Michael leaned back heavily against the chair he was sitting on.
"The question is...how do we stop this Zane from killing Midoriya?" Aiwaza asked still concerned about learning that if what this other had stated. That over half of his Class was going to be killed. That bothered him and he swore that he would make sure that did not happen.
"Now that I know and from what Michael here has told me. I believe that I can stop him at his first attempt." Izuku said and then told them all his plan. Michael had memorized all the details about the first two Assassination attempts and the one successful one. Which he had told Izuku and did not leave nothing out. "From what he said, this Zane was only able to get away because I did not know who it was that fired the Supersonic Bullet that he was able to increase the velocity by adding a small measure of Speed Force into it. No I will not be so idle...now that I know who and why someone shot at me." He stated and Michael smiled.
Chapter 15
Prelude to the Dawn:
Both Aiwaza and All Might did not really fully like Izuku's Plan. It was too risky and placed the young Speedster that was essentially still just a Student in a perilous situation. Facing and Fighting someone that from what the other Midoriya from the Future related was a Psychopath. But they did not really have a choice, no other Hero could possibly fight Zane. Let alone stop him from succeeding in assassinating Izuku and then in a few years releasing a Biological Plague against the World. Not even All Might would be able to actually stop Zane. "You are not facing this Zane alone, young Midoriya. I forbid it." All Might declared sternly and Aiwaza fully agreed. "When the time comes, I will be there."
"The main problem will be..is that Zane is extremely smart...even though he is a coward his intelligence is off the charts which made him a real threat in my Time." Michael stated, remembering all the Hero Judges and his own Father that could not stop Zane. The Madman was always one or more steps ahead of any of them. Mina could not take it any longer, she needed to speak with Izuku alone. Grabbing his right hand, she tugged him away from the other three.
"Uhm Mina?" Izuku asked in confusion as she dragged him around the corner of the house. All Might gestured at them questioningly and Aiwaza smirked, shaking his head.
"I believe young Ashido needs to talk to Midoriya privately." Aiwaza stated and decided that he wanted more details about this Zane. So he began to ask the other Midoriya specific questions. Mainly about the Plague.

Once around the corner, Mina threw her arms around Izuku and held him tightly. Tears poured down her cheeks as she shuddered, pressing her face into his right shoulder. "Mina...are you alright?" He asked and she shook her head, which wiped some of the tears on his shirt.
"No..I am not alright." Mina sobbed her voice wavering. "Some jackass wants to kill you..take you away from me." She stared at him. Sobbing again. "Then we come to find out that after his second attempt...oh get this...he ends up killing over half of our Class...we spend the night together and...and I get pregnant. Then this Zane successfully...kills you and you...you do not even look concerned." She stated sadly and Izuku inhaled softly.
"Your Father would probably kill me anyhow for...you know spending the night with you and us having an accident." Izuku said with a small smile and Mine pushed herself away at arms length, glaring at him angrily.
"THAT IS NOT FUNNY IZUKU!" Mina growled angrily and Izuku knew he was in trouble. Not that because of her tone or how angry she looked. But because she called him Izuku and not Izzy. "I...I do not want to lose you." She wailed and he pulled her back against him.
"Sorry I...tried to lighten the mood a little...no it is not funny and I do not want to get lost. I am actually freaking out about this whole thing. But Mina this Zane is not going to kill me...I now know about him and what he intends to do...thanks to our...ahem distant Relative." Izuku told her and Mina was still upset. So he decided to tell her what he had been leery to tell her about his visit to the Future. "Uhm Mina...I did not tell you this before...when I went to the Future and I met the future you...and she gave me that message for you...uhm well...we..well she...oh boy..." She looked at him oddly. "Okay well that Mina...We are or that one and me from the future are...are...Married." He blurted out and Mina gasped audibly.
"Really?" Mina asked cheerfully and Izuku nodded. Then she scowled, slapping his right arm hard. "Why didn't you tell me this before?" She asked returning to glare at him and Izuku swallowed heavily.
"I...I did not want to...well I was not sure if I should...it could alter the Time Stream if you knew that we got Married." Izuku said and Mina chuckled.
"Bull Crap! You did not tell me because you thought that I would overreact or assume that just because we are married in the Future that I might press you for more details. Or maybe want to move our relationship at a faster pace." Mina stated and Izuku felt sweat begin to form on his forehead. Nervously he tried to think of a response to that, but his mind went completely blank. "Is there anything else you have not told me?" She asked and he considered not telling her, then decided that it might come back to bite him in the ass later.
"There is one minor thing...okay you got to remember that it is or will be you." Izuku said and Mina gave him a sour look. Gesturing for him to continue. "Well...remember it was you...so do not get too upset...she kissed me." He blurted out the last part and Mina did not know if she should be upset or not.
"Let me get this straight...in reality you kissed another Girl or rather an older woman...but it was me...so I do not know if I should be pissed or not...I will have to think about that one for a bit." Mina stated and Izuku suspected that regardless he was in trouble. This trouble he could handle, having some psychopath from the future bent on killing him was a whole other matter. The only good thing about confessing was she was more focused on whether to be angry with him kissing another Girl.
The Internship:
According to the information that the future Midoriya had told him and the others, Zane would make an attempt while Izuku was attending his Internship. Originally he was going to intern with Death Arms, but Aiwaza and All Might insisted that instead he Intern with All Might. Mainly so the Number One Hero could keep a close eye on him and out for Zane. At the same time that he was with All Might. Mina was walking through the Lobby Doors with Momo and Itsuka into the Uwabami Agency. She initially was surprised that the Pro Hero Uwabami wanted her along with Momo and Itsuka. It was well known that the Heroine generally took Interns that were in a word attractive. Sure she was attractive to mostly Perverts that believed the hype that Quirk Abnormal's were noted to be sex craved nymphomaniacs or sluts. More importantly though she knew for a fact that Izuku found her attractive and not because he believed in that she was supposed to be an easy lay. "Hello..are you still in there?" Momo asked waving her right hand in front of Mina's face. Causing first Mina to blush and then smile over at her friend.
"Sorry about that...I was just lost in thought." Mina stated and Momo chuckled.
"Thinking about Midoriya?" Momo asked and Mina blushed again.
"Can't help it..I love him and since we are here...I kinda miss him." Mina said as they entered the elevator. "You know I was surprised that Uwabami wanted me...I mean usually she picks...well the real pretty girls to intern." Momo looked at her oddly.
"Oh come on Mina...you are pretty." Momo declared and Mina shook her head.
"No...not as pretty as you or Kendo. Maybe I would be if I was not. If I was not Pink and did not have horns." Mina gestured at herself and frowned.
"That just makes you different...bet Midoriya likes how you look." Momo commented and Mina smiled.
"Yeah he does. Though he might be in the minority. Not that I want those two Perverts to..you know try to perv on me...but they don't even try. Kinda lets me know I am not...well they continually try with you, Toru and Ochaco. Hell they even with Kyoka and Tsuyu...never me." Mina said and Momo burst out laughing.
"You don't know do you?" Momo asked and Mina shook her head.
"Know what?" Mina asked back and Momo continued to laugh.
"Oh that your loving Boyfriend threatened to strip both Mineta and Kaminari naked and drop them in the middle of the Financial District if they ever try to be do anything perverted regarding you." Momo informed her. "Iida overheard and told me that." She said explaining where she had learned about it. "I bet those two assholes would try if they were not afraid that Midoriya would actually do that to them." Mina smiled and then giggled. Clapping her hands together.
"Got to remember to kiss him the next time I see him." Mina said softly and Momo shook her head again.
"Like you need and excuse." Momo stated just as the Elevator reached the top Floor. Itsuka stood there silently listening. "Oh I am sorry Kendo...we sort of got involved and I totally forgot you were there." The Well Endowed Creationist said and Itsuka simply shrugged.
"That is alright...sort of liked hearing about how gallantly charming Midoriya is." Itsuka said fondly with a bewildered look in her eyes and Mina winced.
"Great another one." Mina whispered thinking that there was now another Girl she had to worry about. She was trying hard not to be jealous, which was hard for her to overcome.

Standing on a Roof of a Tall Skyscraper Building among the Business District of Musutafu. Izuku peered out over the City, All Might with his right foot on the Railing he leaned heavily against his knee. "I like it up here...it gives me a sense of ease as I look out over the City." All Might stated as he inhaled the air deeply. "I actually envy you Midoriya...I made several mistakes over my life and the primary one was that I never allowed myself to become long term romantically involved with anyone." Izuku looked at him oddly.
"Wait everyone...well everyone seems to assume that you and..." Izuku was about to say but All Might cut him off.
"That me and Nemuri Kayama are...No we are not. She is another of my Regrets...there was a time that...never mind...we need to focus on what the Future Midoriya told us. Not my problems." All Might said and then peered back at the City. Izuku decided not to press the issue. Though he was curious on why the Number One Hero never became involved with someone. There had to be those that wanted to, more then anyone could count. "That was some trick you did running up the Building like that." The large Hero said changing the subject and Izuku shrugged.
"I have been attempting different things to see what I can and cannot do. As for running up walls and other inclined surfaces as long as I keep at a constant speed I can do it." Izuku told him and All Might smiled. Although he had commented about Izuku doing that. Silently he was still concerned about what was going to happen in the next five hours. Not mentioning that to the young man. Especially since when the attempt on Midoriya's life in essence was a crucial moment, if they could stop Zane then the Future that Mathew Midoriya had come from would vanish. Noticing All Might's stern expression, even though the Large Man was smiling. "We can't let Zane succeed. We need to stop him here and now." The young man stated.
"We won't and we will stop him no matter what...that is if your Plan works." All Might bit his bottom lip. Right now Michael Midoriya was dressed in Izuku's Hero Uniform and was entering Death Arms Agency. Exactly as planned. For all intents and purposes Michael was Izuku. The other had volunteered, not about to let Izuku do both. Play the bait and spring the trap at the same time. "Now we better get into position...I still do not like the idea of not facing Stain the Hero Killer. But if this Plan is to work I cannot interfere and neither can you." He said to Izuku sternly. They both left the Building and headed for where Zane would make the Attempt.

Zipping into a Small Police Station, Zane acquired a Small Caliber Bullet and with that he left. According to History, a Sniper shot at Izuku Midoriya and almost hit him. That was the Attempt that Zane had tried. The next Attempt required that he Construct a small Explosive Device that he would place within the A-1 Classroom. Once detonated, Izuku would try to remove all the other Students before the Detonation, but was only able to safely remove 9 and the Teacher. Three of those though were seriously wounded. All the Others were killed. Then to keep what needed to occur, Zane would need to slip into not only Ashido's House but Midoriya's as well. Stealing all of the Contraceptives from both. It was necessary for the two teenagers to have unprotected Sex and for there to be an accident. Three Days later, Zane according to the same History he was able to successfully kill Izuku Midoriya. If he failed then his Future would be changed and he had no idea what the consequences of those changes might have. He might not even be born. Or something along those lines. Returning to his Squalor of a Hideout, he slumped against the wall. Breathing hard. Going full Speed taxed him to his limits. It would take at least another hour before he could summon enough Speed Force into the Bullet to fire it at Izuku Midoriya. So he would need to walk to his vantage point. Leaving the Abandoned Building he made his way where Izuku Midoriya, Tenya Iida and Shoto Todoroki faced off against Stain the Hero Killer. At the right moment after the defeat of Stain, it had been recorded in History that an unknown Sniper tried to shoot Midoriya. So Zane needed to be ready to fulfill that role as the Sniper.
The Fastest Man Alive:
Hidden on top of a nearby Building, one that oversaw not only the Building according to Michael Midoriya that Zane use. But it also looked down at the scene where he and two of his Classmates fought Stain. Glancing over he noticed All Might's knuckles were crushing the Cement of the Railing. The Pro Hero was glaring down at the Scene and Izuku knew that the other wanted to intervene. Barely unable to keep himself from jumping down and facing Stain. Izuku fully understood, because he had the same feelings and urges. But they needed to remain, otherwise they would not be able to stop Zane. Which was more important then stopping Stain. They both watched as Mathew Midoriya dressed in Izuku's Hero Uniform arrive and slam a devastating blow against Stain. Barely able to dodge a Sword Swipe from the demented Psychopath. "He was right...he is fast...but not as fast as I am." Izuku commented and All Might inhaled sharply. From what he could tell the other Midoriya was extremely fast, he began to fully wonder just how fast Izuku Midoriya could actually be. "I might have to intervene after all." He said and All Might shook his head.
"No...we need to stick to the Plan...do not worry...Aiwaza is ready to step in if needed." All Might said, pointing towards a small Building to the left. He was sure that Aiwaza was straining not to enter the fray. But they all had agreed that they needed to keep to the actual events that Mathew had told them. That meant that Tenya Iida, Shoto Todoroki and for all intents and appearances; Izuku Midoriya was there fighting Stain. It was not until later that Endeavor arrived. They needed to at least try to keep to what actually occurred to keep the Time Stream intact.
"I know...I just hope this works...otherwise...I may have to do something drastic." Izuku stated and All Might wondered what that could mean. But Izuku did not say anything more as he peered down at the Scene. He had already decided that if it came down to it, he promised Mina that he was not about to allow Zane to try his second attempt. That meant he would do what he must. Even change the Timeline by going into the Future. "When this is over...I need to think and establish some rules...so that this never happens again." He said to himself and then continued to watch the fight below.

Dodging the Sword Slash, Mathew swallowed heavily. Sure he was fast, but so was this Stain the Hero Killer. The Man's reflexes were astounding and after the initial blow from him, Stain seemed to be able to avoid or counter any other hits. Even at his top speed which unfortunately was only about half of that of Izuku's. But he had to make it look good, otherwise Zane would get suspicious. What limited him at the moment was the Bullet Proof Kevlar Armor that Aiwaza made him put on under Izuku's Uniform. It was heavy and restricted his movements by one hundredth of a second. That seemed to be all that Stain needed. "You are not like the others...you show that you are worthy to be considered a Hero...the others are self proclaimed, egotistical and unworthy of that name. You are different Boy! So I am going to allow you to depart...continue and I may have to harm you." Stain growled with a sinister smile, which made Mathew feel a shudder of dread. He had never faced or fought someone like this, not even Zane since he believed that his Father had stopped him. To actually fight someone this psychotic and demented frightened him. When the slug hit him in the chest, it knocked him backwards and down dazing him. Stain roared with rage. Glaring about with wide red rimmed insane eyes. "COWARD!" He bellowed wanting to find whoever had shot the young man whom he deemed worthy of the title of Hero. "To shoot someone from hiding and from a great distance! DISHONORABLE COWARD!" Immediately believing that it had to be one of Tomura Shigaraki's thugs or perhaps even the idiotic fool himself. Vowing silently the next time he encountered Shigaraki he would kill him in the most painful way possible.

On the designated Rooftop, Zane watched the Battle with keen interest and some confusion. "If Izuku Midoriya...I thought he was faster then that...he is the original Flash and...he seems not as fast as I thought he would be." He had read in the History Books that the first Flash was incredibly fast. So fast that he could breach the Time Line with utter ease. Now as he watched he could swear that the young man was no faster then he was. Snapping his fingers he smiled. "Ah...now I know...he is not fully comfortable or trained enough to fully access his true Power...that has to be it." He inhaled softly, getting ready to fulfill History's requirement. Placing the Bullet in his left palm, he began to concentrate and focus all the Speed Force he could muster into it. Aiming it at the Young Speedster below. Now all he had to do was flick it with his finger and his first failed attempt would be accomplished. When the supersonic Bullet struck the young Man in the chest, he gasped audibly. Unable to fathom what had gone wrong.
The Uwabami Agency:
Barely paying that much attention, Mina continually removed her Cell Phone from her Pocket and stared at the Screen. Izuku had promised to call her the minute it was over, just to let her know everything was alright. It being the third day of the Internship. Her, Momo and Itsuka's time at the Uwabami Agency had fell into a routine. To them it felt more like they were Uwabami's Aides rather then them being there to learn about being a Heroine. In the past two days they had gone from Photo Shoots to Public Appearances to the Pro Heroine advertising a type of Hairspray. That was what they were doing now. She looked over at Momo and Itsuka and giggled. Thankfully her hair was too short to be in the Commercial, but Momo and Itsuka's were perfect for it. When her friend saw her expression, the other gave her a sour look. Not fully liking the idea of being in a Advertising Commercial. Though all three of them did not like it the other day when Uwabami made a public appearance. The three Girls spent their whole time first standing idly by and then dissuading a great number of older Men that they were not interested in any casual hook-ups. Mina had to wonder how Uwabami could stand there and smile as Several Men made some lewd comment or attempted to solicit her for a sexual encounter. But the Pro Heroine smiled and portrayed that she was flattered by such comments or that some older Man wanted to have sex with her. "That type of popularity I do not want." Momo whispered over to her and Mina had to agree. She wanted like her friend to be viewed as a Hero. Not someone that the Men fantasied about having sex with them.
"Mt Lady must have the same problem." Itsuka commented as she tried to get the Hair Spray out of her Hair. The three of them had retreated to the Women's Bathroom and Mina was helping the two try to remove the stiff binding substance from the two girls hair.
"I actually heard she likes the attention." Momo said valiantly trying to get her hair back to her usual spiky style. First washing her hair and now with her own Hairspray styling it back to her style. "That is why she shows off her ass so much." They all had seen the News broadcasts, where after defeating the Giant Criminal that at first Kiami Woods was fighting. The Blonde Haired Woman almost thrust her ass towards the Spectators and Bystanders. Mina's mother had voiced her disgust at the fact that if someone looked close enough, they could see the outline of her area. The non-polite terms would be those that looked could see Camel Toe.
"Perhaps that is about the only gimmick she could think up...you know being sexually appealing?" Mina suggested and Momo winced. She had been told that might be a good gimmick for her when she became first a Sidekick and then a Hero. It bothered her that just because her Hero Uniform was skimpy, that according to a lot of others she was physically attractive. That she needed to flaunt her assets to be a popular Hero. She had designed the Uniform so she could have ease of use for her Quirk. Not to be some type of sex object.
"I for one will never go that route." Momo declared sternly. Even now considering redesigning her Uniform to be more concealing. Especially after all the perverse leers she had received during Uwabami's public appearance, not to mention a dozen or so pieces of paper with contact information. All of them wanting her to call them. When Mina's Cell Phone binged indicating she had a text message. She lunged for it and then growled in frustration. It was only her Mother reminding her to stop on the way home for Milk. "Mina is there something you are not telling us?" Her friend asked and Mina inhaled sharply.
"I am...I am just worried about Izzy. Remember he does have a habit of getting into mischief." Mina said in reply and went off to one of the Bathroom Stalls wanting to be alone for a few moments. In truth she was so worried about Izuku that she could not think about anything else. If his Plan did not work, if that Maniac from the Future got away or if worse Izuku got hurt. She did not know if she could handle going through something like this again. The waiting for the next time, the next attempt on his life by that Jackass. Which according to his and her future relative, there would be another attempt in a week. That one ended up killing just over half their Class. She blushed at the thought of her and Izuku afterwards in a moment of desperation and sadness, spending the night together. She did intend for them to eventually have sex, but not that soon and not for that reason. She wanted it to be special and not to console each other. Her Phone binged again and she had an impulse to break it in half when it was only Toru giving her a quick "HOW'S IT GOING?" Message.
