One for All (Part 5)

All for One was still standing on the roof of UA. He loved the chaos. The students who claimed to be heroes were now battling the High End Nomus. The actual heroes were with their classes, staying away from the fight. Principal Nezu had also evacuated at this point. All for One finally noticed something though: there was someone who wasn't running away. They were standing below him, looking up at him. All for One focused and smiled. He recognized the black hair and confident look in his eyes. Jason was staring up at him. All for One raised his hand and gave Jason a 'come here' gesture. Jason scoffed and walked through the school entrance.

Jason was slow as he walked up the stairs. He could've run and gotten there faster. He could've taken the elevator to the top floor. However, all of that would be far too quick. Jason was trying to stall for time here. Jason continued climbing the steps, rapidly trying to figure out what to say and do in order to keep All for One preoccupied for as long as possible. "Dammit Chris, you better get here soon."

Shoto threw a massive wave of fire at te Nomu. The good news was that her flames were hot enough to melt the Nomu. The bad news was that it's regeneration abilities negated any damage that was worthwhile. Shoto put her right foot forward, sending ice towards the monster. As the ice collided with the Nomu, Acid began melting through it. Shoto snapped her head towards Mina. "Really?!" "Sorry! I didn't know you were-" The Nomu raised an arm and fired off a blast of air. Shoto was tossed like a ragdoll. Mina swore and tried to spray more acid. Just like Shoto's fire, the Nomu was regenerating any damage dealt. It just glared at her and began to approach her. When it lunged forward, Mina dove to the side. Her reflexes and acrobatics had greatly improved. She knew she couldn't take too many hits from powerful villains, which made dodging a must. Shoto held her head as she got back up. "We have to stop this thing so we can help the others. Unlike us, the others don't have quirks that can dish out a lot of damage." Mina nodded. "Yea, we need to hurry this up. Do you have a plan?" Shoto shook her head as the Nomu let out an evil chuckle, slowly approaching the heroines.

Jason finally stepped onto the roof. All for One turned to him. "Hello, Endgame. I see your arm is perfectly fine." Jason quietly took a deep breath as he walked forward with a smile. "Hey All for One. Did you come all the way out here for round two with me?" All for One chuckled. "Hardly. I did come here to kill All Might though." "Well, he's not here." "Obviously. Even my informant has no idea where he is." Jason's eyes narrowed. Now the suspicions were finally confirmed. "Informant? Who?" All for One chuckled. "As if I would tell you." Jason walked forward until he was standing next to All for One, looking down at the evacuating students.

Shinso, now running alongside his brand new hero course class, suddenly stopped. The few classmates who were close to him also stopped. Shinso was looking into the woods. He had heard an interesting noise. Then he saw Kirishima. The redheaded student had been thrown by something. Before the question of 'what' could be formed in his mind, Shinso saw a gigantic Nomu come charging through brush. Kirishima hardened his arms and caught the Nomu's fist, digging his feet into the dirt so as to not get tossed away again. Denki sprinted out of the woods, his electricity sparking off of his body. He jumped on to the Nomu's back. Kirishima let go and rolled away as Denki unleashed several million volts of electricity into the Nomu. It roared in pain. Kirishima stood back up and waved towards the other class. "Don't stop! Keep running!" The Nomu managed to grab Denki and slam him down into the ground. Kirishima ran forward and punched the Nomu several times, knocking it back a little with each punch. Shinso waved towards his class. "Come on!" They continued running away. Shinso looked over his shoulder as he ran. Kirishima jumped out of the way as Denki electrified his arm and punched the Nomu, stunning it. Then both Kirishima and Denki tackled the Nomu back into the woods. "...good luck, guys…"

Jason glanced at All for One, noticing the white cape. "...I see you got a cape. Are you trying to steal my style?" All for One chuckled. "Oh, this thing?" Since the tattered cape was covering only his left arm, he used his left hand to lift it up. "It was just something I had lying around. I thought All Might would appreciate it. After all, this cape has a lot of our shared history." "Well, that explains why it looks so torn up." Jason quickly tried to think of something else. "...so what about-" "You're stalling." Jason tensed up. All for One turned towards Jason. "It's fine. I'm glad to have the company. I imagine Christopher and All Might are on their way, from wherever they are. For your sake, I hope they get here soon." He raised his arm and powered up a shockwave. With no time to dodge, Jason raised his arms to protect himself. The shockwave threw Jason off of the building.
