Honnouji Academy
Y/N cracked his knuckles and neck, the popping sound echoing slightly as he watched Ryuko's heart slither back into her chest.
Ryuko: Ah! Ah!
Senketsu: Ryuko get a hold of yourself!
Ryuko was completely in shock at the sudden revelation of who and what she was. She completely ignored Senketsu as she breathed deeply and was spiraling into a panic attack.
(Y/N): Ryuko.
Ryuko didn't respond to Y/N. Her eyes were wide, staring at nothing.
(Y/N): -_- sigh HEEEEEEY!!!!!
Y/N shouted at the top of his lungs in Ryuko's face, creating a small explosive shockwave that caused her to jolt back to reality.
Ryuko: WHA! What!? What!?
(Y/N): HEY!! EARTH TO RYUKO!!!! CAN YOU HEAR ME!?
Ryuko: Gah! S-stop yelling!
(Y/N): grabs Ryuko's shoulders firmly Ryuko, look at me! Look me dead in the eyes!
Ryuko: What?
(Y/N): Woman! Look me dead in the eyes!
Ryuko: looks into Y/N's intensity W-What!?
(Y/N): Do you care for your father!?
Ryuko: What!?
(Y/N): DO YOU CARE FOR YOUR FATHER!?
Ryuko: Gah! YES! YES I DO! What does-
(Y/N): Do you care for Mako and her family!?
Ryuko: Ahhh! Yes I do!
(Y/N): Do you care about Senketsu!?
Ryuko: YES!!!
(Y/N): ...Do you care about me?
Ryuko paused and looked deeply into Y/N's eyes. She saw the desperation there.
Ryuko: Y-yes...
(Y/N): smiles Then that's all that matters.
Ryuko: W-what?
(Y/N): I know what's going through your mind. You're wondering "if you're human". Well you just answered that question.
Ryuko: I did?
(Y/N): Being human isn't a what, Ryuko. It's a who. So long as you care for others, and others care for you, you are more human than a lot of the people on this planet. Never, EVER, doubt that.
Ryuko: Y/N...
(Y/N): I want you to promise you'll never doubt that about yourself.
Ryuko: I-I promise...
Y/N gave Ryuko a big toothy grin—a fierce, confident expression—and hugged her, making Ryuko blush a little.
(Y/N): Great! Now, I need you to help people evacuate the stadium.
Ryuko: What!? What about you?
(Y/N): Well, someone needs to keep the "Four Stooges" at bay.
Y/N pointed across the arena. Standing there were Ragyo Kiryuin, Nui Harime, Rei Hououmaru... and a tall man in a dark suit with a mask covering his face. All For One.
(Y/N): Besides, Mako needs your help.
Ryuko: What? Ah! Mako! Alright, I get it! I'll be back!
(Y/N): I'll be fine. Just go!
Ryuko jumped to where the COVERS were attacking the audience.
Y/N turned his attention fully to the group of villains. His hands were shaking, not from fear, but from pure, unadulterated rage.
Ragyo: gasp Gah! pant Ugh.
Y/N's fist, powered by a condensed explosion, had ripped away half of Ragyo's face. Life Fibers squirmed, regenerating her skull.
(Y/N): Well damn. You can regenerate from even that... annoying.
AFO: slow clap Impressive, young (Y/N). I see you haven't lost your touch, even in retirement.
(Y/N): Growls And I see you're still breathing. I thought I blew your head off back home.
AFO: You certainly tried. But I am hard to kill. And Lady Ragyo made me such an interesting offer to aid her world.
Ragyo: I gasp could pant have made you into a god, Y/N! gasp
(Y/N): Lady, I've fought gods, monsters, and points at AFO that Demon Lord over there. The hell makes you think I want to be a god?
Ragyo slowly climbed out of the rubble. Nui and Rei rushed to her side.
Ragyo: Kill the rest of those peasants...
Nui: giggles Yay!
As Nui tried to jump past (Y/N), he grabbed her by the leg.
(Y/N): Pffft. You're kidding right? Where do you think you're going?
Nui: EH!?
Y/N proceeded to smash Nui into the ground repeatedly, setting off a blast with each impact. After a few slams, Y/N threw her right back at Ragyo.
(Y/N): Alright. Let's do this.
Ragyo: smiles A knight should learn, that they still serve royalty. snaps finger
Reiketsu—the Kamui Y/N was wearing—began to convulse and try to consume Y/N.
(Y/N): flinches Agh! The fuck? Okay, you're coming off!
AFO: Such a pity. That suit suited you. It restrained your... volatile nature.
(Y/N): SHUT UP!
With a massive explosion, Y/N blasted the Kamui off his body. Blood shot into the air. When the smoke cleared, Y/N was in his underwear, blood gushing from where the fibers had dug in.
(Y/N): Gah! pant that hurt... breathes okay.
Ragyo: Hmmm... You're much more resilient than I thought.
(Y/N): And you're much more annoying than I thought.
AFO: Floats forward Allow me, Ragyo. I have some unfinished business with this one. I still owe him for my life support mask.
(Y/N): Sparks fly from palms Come get some, Potato-Face!
Y/N lunged. The fight was chaos. Y/N held his own against Ragyo and Nui, dodging blades and blasts, but AFO was the problem.
AFO launched a blast of air pressure. Y/N blocked with an explosion, but the force sent him skidding back.
Nui: RAAAAAAAH!!!!
Nui lunged. To Y/N, she should have been moving in slow motion. But then, AFO pointed a finger.
AFO: Heart Failure.
A specific quirk activation. Y/N's chest seized. The old wound—the hole AFO had put in his heart years ago—burned like molten lead.
(Y/N): Clutches chest Gah-!
His vision blurred. He missed the parry. Nui's blade clipped his side deep.
(Y/N): Ah! Damnit! grabs side
Nui: HeheheHAHAHAHAHA!!! I hit him!
Y/N stumbled. He was bleeding, unmedicated, and facing the man who ruined his health.
Ragyo: Oh~ is there something wrong? smirk
(Y/N): pant Just... pant dealing with the ghost of Christmas Past... pant
Ragyo snapped her fingers, summoning thousands more COVERS.
AFO: Give up, child. Your retirement ends here.
Y/N glared at AFO. Not today.
(Y/N): Hmmm.... looks down at his own body This is gonna hurt in the morning... -_-
With a sudden burst of speed—igniting explosions from his feet—Y/N ran. He ignored AFO, grabbed the Elite Four, and hurled them out of the arena.
(Y/N): pant YEET!
Y/N then looked to the sky, blasted upwards, grabbed Ryuko, and chucked her away too. He landed, skidding across the floor, stumbling as his legs gave out.
(Y/N): Agh! Shit!
Satsuki awoke near the debris. She saw the hopeless situation.
Satsuki: N-not yet...
(Y/N): Satsuki! Do it!
With the push of the button the whole arena erupted into explosions.
BOOM.
Some Time Later...
Honno City - Alleyway
Satsuki slowly woke up. She noticed a trail of blood leading to a body slumped against the wall.
Satsuki: Y/N!?
(Y/N): Ah. cough Sleeping beauty wakes... pant
Satsuki rushed to Y/N. He was a mess. Cuts, burns, and his chest was heaving irregularly.
Satsuki: You need medical attention.
(Y/N): cough I'm gonna need pant a whole lot more than that... I need my meds.
Satsuki dragged him into a nearby convenience store and started washing his wounds.
Satsuki: ...You have a lot of scars... especially this starburst one on your chest.
(Y/N): -_- sigh Yeah... A parting gift from Him.
Satsuki: Him? The man in the suit?
(Y/N): All For One. The Demon Lord of the underworld back home. He's the one who put the hole in my heart. He's the reason I have to take those pills to keep my heart rate stable during combat.
Satsuki: He is here? working with my mother?
(Y/N): Yeah. Great team, right? The Fashion Dictator and the Quirk Stealer. Cough I hate them both.
Satsuki finished wrapping his shoulder.
(Y/N): Ow. I hate dislocated shoulders. -_-
Satsuki: If it is any consolation, I apologize for making your life so difficult at the academy.
(Y/N): looks at Satsuki Wow. Satsuki Kiryuin apologizing? Did the explosion knock your screws loose?
Satsuki: smirk Don't let it go to your head.
(Y/N): Satsuki, listen. My apartment. No-Star District. Underneath my bed there is a silver case. It has my heart medication and a scrapbook. I need you to get it.
Satsuki: Y/N, what are you-
(Y/N): cough They're coming. I can smell AFO's cologne. It smells like evil and old spice.
Satsuki: I am not leaving you beh-
(Y/N): glares Yes you are. If you stay, AFO kills us both. I can buy time. You can't.
Satsuki bit her lip.
(Y/N): Tell you what, you can give me a kiss for good luck.
Much to Y/N's surprise Satsuki pulled him in and kissed him on the lips, rather passionately.
Satsuki: kiss
(Y/N): ._. ...Okay, didn't see that coming.
Satsuki: You'd better come out of this in one piece.
(Y/N): Do NOT tell Ryuko.
Satsuki fled out the back.
The front of the store exploded. Ragyo, Nui, and All For One stepped in.
Ragyo: Hello Y/N.~
Nui: We found you!
AFO: Still hiding in corners, little hero?
(Y/N): Yeah, yeah. The Four Stooges minus one. Did you lose the butler?
Ragyo: Where is my daughter?
(Y/N): -_- Up your-
AFO: Raises hand Enough.
Before AFO could use a quirk, Y/N—running on pure spite—kicked Nui into a wall and punched Ragyo back. He spun to strike AFO, but AFO caught his fist effortlessly.
AFO: Weak. Your heart is failing, Y/N. I can hear it skipping beats.
(Y/N): Grits teeth It beats... with hatred... for you!
Y/N unleashed a point-blank explosion. AFO barely flinched, but it freed Y/N's hand.
Ragyo: smile So defiant~
(Y/N): Lady... I'm gonna need you pant to stop that...
Y/N charged again, but his wounds opened up. He flinched as his heart seized painfully.
Ragyo kicked him straight into the ground. AFO stepped on his chest, right over the scar.
(Y/N): Ow... grunts Yep, that's it... gravity wins...
AFO: You will make a fascinating subject for the Life Fibers. And perhaps... I will take your quirk back as a souvenir.
Ragyo: Lovely~ Now come with me.~
As Ragyo's smile grew wider and AFO loomed over him, Y/N looked in the direction Satsuki ran in, and then finally blacked out.
