2,992The Death of Deku
The mighty man and the warrior, The judge and the prophet, The diviner and the elder
"How many times are we gonna go over this guys?!"
Deku jokingly yelled at the two Super Villains who he was currently pursuing. They were running through the downtown streets, all of the civilians getting out of the way hurriedly to make sure they didn't get into the crossfire.
"I mean, it's pretty much a cycle at this point. I beat you up, you get thrown in prison. Then you somehow break out and then cause a ruckus. I come to stop you and we're back at square one!" Deku evaded a plasma blast as he fired an energy blast of his own only for it to get negated by one of the Super Villains.
"You got lucky last time, punk! This time we will take you down for sure!" Muscular yelled as he and his brother Wolfram charged at the Number 1 Pro Hero.
Deku shook his head as he quickly transformed into a Super Saiyan. He grunted as he caught both of their attacks and sent them both flying with a drop kick.
"You two never learn, do you? I was able to beat you both when I was 15 years old! Back when I was a dumb little kid with no experience. What makes you think you can defeat me now?" Deku cockily pointed out as he watched the two Villains recover from his earlier drop kick.
"That was a long time ago, Izuku Midoriya. We made the mistake of underestimating you. But today… you will meet your end!" Wolfram yelled as he started to gather plasmas in his hands.
'This is gonna get ugly. I have to get these two away from the civilians!'
Deku began to fly away and shout, "Catch me if you can!"
"Damn him!"
15 year old Kota Izumi was not supposed to be here right now.
What got him here? His fanboyism and curiosity. It wasn't everyday you got to see your favorite Superhero and idol, Izuku Midoriya, fighting Muscular and Wolfram, two of the most dangerous Villains. Even though it was super dangerous and stupid, he just couldn't sit still.
So he followed them.
And now he was regretting it.
They were in some sort of underground lab with a huge machine in the middle that looked like it was a portal to something. Kota didn't know what it was, but Deku seemed like he was trying to stop it.
"Guys listen to me! I cannot let you open a portal to another dimension." Izuku exclaimed as he was thrown to the wall.
"It's not up to us. Why won't you just quit?" Wolfram replied.
"I don't know, I guess I like Planet Earth not being sucked into a black hole!"
The three battled back and forth until Deku was able to get the upper hand by delivering a swift Delaware Smash which sent them tumbling down.
However, Kota got caught in the shockwaves and was sent tumbling down as well. It was this point that Deku realized there was another person in the area and widened his eyes when he saw him falling to his doom.
Deku proceeded to quickly save Kota and place him on platform.
"Kota? What are you doing here?" Izuku asked once he recognized the person as the kid who he saved from Muscular all those years ago.
"Uh, I sort of followed you…"
Izuku sighed, "You know you're not supposed to do that. You shouldn't be here. How would your Aunt feel if she knew you were out here in the middle of dangerous dimensional battles?"
"She probably wouldn't like that…" Kota replied.
"Yeah she wouldn't."
Just then, there was a huge rumbling.
"Kota, you stay here. I just need to destroy this big machine real quick...before the space-time continuum collapses. Be back in a bit."
Deku summoned Black Whip and did a front flip swing all the way up to the ceiling to where the machine was. Kota looked on in amazement.
"How does he do that?"
Izuku was about to stop the machine but was stopped by the duo of Wolfram and Muscular. It was then revealed that All For One was the mastermind behind the dimensional portal.
"I see you've come to see my new toy."
The machine began to turn on which caused Deku to widen his eyes in horror.
"No! No, don't do this! Stop! You don't know what it can do! You'll kill us all!"
Deku tried to stop the machine but Muscular held him down. The portal became way too unstable and it ended up blowing up on him and destroying the entire lab.
From the remains of the lab, Kota was able to find an injured Deku laying on the ground. Blood and gashes were visible on his face and he had short breathing.
"Hey! Are you okay?" Kota asked in worry.
"I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm just… resting."
Kota looked towards his left side and gasped, "Your arm-"
"Don't worry… I have a friend who can probably replace it…" Deku said in short breaths.
"Can't you get up?"
Deku chuckled, "Yeah. Ha, ha. Yeah, I always get up."
That was indeed true. Izuku Midoriya always got back up… but this time he wouldn't.
Izuku coughed, "Yeah the coughing is probably not a good sign."
"Find him. Now."
At hearing All For One's voice, Izuku's head perked up.
"Listen to me, we don't have much time." Izuku painfully plucked a strand of his hair. "Eat this."
"What? Why would I-"
"JUST DO IT!" Izuku quietly yelled.
Kota was shook due to the tone of voice Izuku was using. He had never been this way towards him. He decided to listen to his favorite Hero and swallowed the blonde strand of hair.
"What I just gave you was my Quirk. It's called One For All. A power passed on through generations. I don't have enough time to tell you the entire story but basically, you now have a special power that you can't tell anyone about. It's a power that's gonna be hard to control at first, but with enough hard work and dedication, you can do it. Find All Might, Gran Torino, and Eraserhead. Tell them you now have One For All. They will explain the rest to you and teach you how to master the Quirk."
Izuku had more trouble breathing by the second, "You need to hide your face. You don't tell anyone who you are. No one can know. He's got everyone in his pocket."
"Wait-"
"If he turns the machine on again, everything you know will disappear. Your family, friends, everyone. Everyone. Promise me you'll do this."
Kota looked into his Hero's eyes. They were pleading with him to accept his request.
"I promise."
"Good. Now get out of here."
"What about you?"
"Don't worry, I'll catch up. I'll come find you. I'll show you the ropes and teach you everything you need to know."
"Really?" Kota asked.
Izuku smiled, "Yeah."
That would be the last lie the Symbol of Hope would ever tell.
Kota ran out of there, leaving Izuku alone with the Villains.
"I'd say it's nice to see you again, Deku, but it's not." All For One said.
Izuku laughed, "Hey All For One. How was Prison?"
"Lovely."
"This might open a black whole. It can't be worth the risk."
"It's not always about the money, Izuku Midoriya."
Wolfram was getting a plasma blast ready, Izuku grit his teeth.
"I know what you're trying to do… and it won't work. They're gone. I've lost people important to me too, and I have long got over the fact that, no matter what I do, I would never be able to bring them back. So why can't you?" Izuku asked the Symbol of Evil.
All For One growled in anger, "That's it. Kill him."
"You know you can't win. You can't destroy what I really am. Even if you manage to kill this body, someone even stronger would surface and take my place!"
"We'll see about that."
As the Villains all charged towards him, Izuku smirked as there was only one thought in his mind.
'Do your best Kota. You can do it, kid.'
On that day, the Symbol of Hope and Number One Pro Hero, Izuku Midoriya died…
With a smile on his face.
