I didn't stop training, I guess there wasn't anything else for me to do. I don't know if anything will prepare me enough for what's about to happen, but any training will help! Momo and Kaminari came outside with the takeout from Kirishima's little kitchen mishap from a couple days ago. I decided to take a break from training and join them.
"Alyx, have you ever thought about coming up with a new technique?" Momo wondered.
"Oh, yeah! I've been working on one for quite a while now. I'm calling it the "Leonidus Secret Technique!" It's mainly used as a distraction. I use my Quirk which then creates an image of that person's perfection." I explained.
"Woah, really? Sounds interesting, dude!" Kaminari responded.
I nodded my head. We continued with our lunch, I sat there for a bit, then a flash of images hit my head.
"DEKU!" I heard Bakugo shout in my head.
"I... L-Love you... Mo... Mo..." I heard myself say as an image of me lying next to Momo surfaced my head.
Kaminari shook my shoulder, "You alright? You look a bit glazed over."
"Yeah! I'm fine! Just spaced off, that's all." I reassured him.
After lunch, I continued training. Those images, what were they? I didn't understand what they were, was that in the future? I decided to practice more of my Leonidus Secret Technique. I took a deep breath in and out. I pulled my shirt off and as I did, I activated my Quirk. I'm not sure if it'll work since I'm doing it by myself. I put my shirt back on and went inside.Mr. Aizawa was standing in the dorms and everyone gathered around him. I joined them and Mr. Aizawa began talking.
"Alright, everyone. We're taking the fight to the League. The Hero Association is sending everyone out to the location of All For One and the League. I want you all to be on your guard at all times. Do not try being a hero and take on the villains by yourself. Get ready, we're leaving now." Mr. Aizawa informed us.
We all put on our hero suits, and I made sure to grab my sword and put on my Hanafuda earrings. Thanks to Iida, he told me what my earrings were! We walked outside and we were being transported by some huge helicopter thing! We all stepped inside and we were carried off to our destination.
Those images in my head kept resurfacing, what did they mean? I was so confused, but I started to feel uneasy about this. It didn't take long before we landed, we stepped out of the aircraft. The entire area radiated evil and despair. We marched forward, every school, student and Pro Hero walked towards the base. It wasn't much of a base as it was an area of land.
"So, you've arrived? Excellent, I was starting to wonder when you'd all show up!" All For One shouted towards us.
"Although, it seems you've brought ALL of your heroes! What a foolish decision, you don't think I didn't send my little band of warriors out as well? Who knows what they could be doing on those city streets!" All For One gloated.
I could tell that some of the small-time Heroes were worried, almost as if they wanted to run away back to the city. Simply by stating that, most of the small-time heroes did run back to the city.
All For One laughed, "Look at them, running for their lives. Such cowardice, I thought they knew what it meant to be a hero."
"Enough talk! Let's do this!" I yelled.
I pulled out my sword, went into Mode Three and lunged at him! My sword caught his already bulked up arm!
"Ah, Leonidus! I'm quite surprised you're still alive!" All For One smirked.
My sword somehow was sinking into his arm! Then, in an instant, it shattered! All For One rammed his fist into me and I went flying back. I rebounded in the air and charged towards him. Deku flew up and well and we both caught him with a kick to the sternum! He shot off those claws at us, we dodged out of the way, then we heard a scream. We looked down and noticed it hit a few of the Pros, which pierced right through them! Endeavor quickly soared into the sky and slammed All For One down into the ground.
All For One pushed Endeavor back, Mr. Aizawa tried to erase his Quirk, but All For One simply laughed at him.
"You can only erase one Quirk, right, Eraserhead? So, which Quirk did you erase?" All For One asked.
"You're an idiot if you think I only erased one of your Quirks, All For One." Mr. Aizawa replied.
We noticed that some of All For One's quirks weren't as effective or powerful as they were before! Before All For One could approach Mr. Aizawa, Kirishima hit him with his Red Gauntlet move! Bakugo quickly flew in with a Howitzer Impact and sent All For One flying! All For One retaliated with a blast of his own, which sent the heroes in the surrounding area flying! Tomikoa and I rushed in to stop All For One's blast attack! It seemed like All For One was getting stronger, as he took our punches and kicks head on! He knocked both of us back then pierced Tomikoa with those claws, luckily it wasn't in fatal spots!
"TOMIKOA!" I yelled as she landed on the ground.
One by one, Heroes fell to All For One, I tried to stop him but I just couldn't! I was starting to get pissed off! I charged towards him, readying and Overdrive Fist, I hit him right in the nose! But, he just.... Melted?! Somehow, he created a body double, but how? Were we all were attacking the wrong All For One? I looked behind me, he had Mr. Aizawa in his clutches! I activated Boost Fire and flew as fast as I could to him. Luckily, Sero was there! He wrapped tape around All For One's face and pulled him down to the ground! Fat Gum jumped and practically squashed All For One as Sero held him down.
"Move!" I shouted to everyone.
I charged up my Diamond Buster move, "DIAMOND BUSTER: TIMES TEN!!"
I fired it off and it exploded on contact!
All For One rose into the sky through the smoke, he was bloody and bruised.
"This is getting quite tiresome!" All For One yelled.
Deku rushed into the air, "THEN GIVE UP!"
Deku used a Wyoming Smash, but All For One dodged it. Then, he pierced him through the heart. I finally realized what those images I saw were, those were about... Today.
"DEKU!" Bakugo shouted.
I saw the glimmer of life fade from Deku's eyes, I stood there, blank and hopeless. My rage built up inside of me, more intense than ever before. I clenched both of my fists, and let it out!
"HRRAAAAAAAH!" I roared furiously.
I was in both Mode Three and Boost Fire at full power.
"I'LL KILL YOU WHERE YOU STAND!" I thundered.
I zoomed off towards All For One, who held delight in his eyes. I punched a hole straight through his stomach, then fired off a Dorarara Rush.
"DORARARARA!!!" I screamed as my punches grew faster and faster.
All For One blasted me away from him, which I slid off the ground, and Bakugo rushed towards him with tears of anger in his eyes. I followed suite and combined an AP Shot & Stardust Shoot attack with Bakugo. All For One got pelted and filled with holes! The holes quickly regenerated, all of us rushed towards him, with hatred and anger in our hearts. Shinso strangled All For One with his Capture Cloth. Momo and I sliced at All For One's body and Kirishima was practically beating All For One's skull in!
I grabbed Shinso's Capture Cloth and swung All For One around, I slammed him back and forth onto the ground. All For One shot those claws out of every part of his body, luckily though, I shielded everyone from getting hurt. The claws retracted, and All For One was pissed! He pushed us all backwards with a burst of an energy Quirk!
"Have it your way! If you'd like to join him, then so be it!" All For One yelled.
"Let's go, 2-A!" I shouted.
We all rushed towards him again, I slammed him with a full power Overdrive Fist, but the impact affected me instead! Sending me flying back into a nearby boulder! So that's what it feels like to get hit by my own move at full power? All For One took us all down one by one, I got back up as he was charging up a dark energy ball.
"Good riddance, imbeciles." All For One mumbled.
I managed to punched him in the stomach, but he threw the attack in a random direction because of it! I looked to see where it was heading, and it was heading towards Momo! I rushed down towards her, and guarded her with a shield. The attack broke through my shield and exploded. I blacked out.
[30 Minutes Later...]
(I.R.P.: Listen to "Goodbye Nostalgia" By Coda AND "chase ~Acoustic Ver.~" by batta)
I woke up, I could barely move a muscle. I looked down at my right arm, it was completely blown off. Not to mention the various other injuries on my body. I blinked twice and to search for everyone else's Heat Energy. I looked across the field, I only saw 8 Heat Energies, one being All For One's, but none of my friends. I looked to my right and saw another heat energy, but it was slowly fading away. I mustered the strength I had left and crawled over to Momo. I made my way over to her; she was in the same condition I was. Both of us were slowly bleeding out.
"A-Al... Lyx..." Momo muttered.
I laid on my right side to face her.
"H-Hey..." I softly smiled.
"W-We... L-Lo...Lost... Didn't we..." Momo asked me.
I nodded my head slowly; it was getting difficult to keep breathing. A tear ran down Momo's face, and I put my left hand on her cheek. I scooted forward and put my forehead on hers.
"I-I'll... Be... With you... A-Always... I... I promise..." I told her.
We both closed our eyes, "I love... You... Alyx..."
"I-I... Love you too... Mo... Mo..." I smiled.
We both took our last breaths in... And then back out...
*THIRD PERSON*
The remaining heroes retreated, Annie Leonidus was among those 7 surviving heroes. Endeavor, Mirko, Eraserhead, Mt. Lady, Kamui Woods, and Midnight were the other survivors. As soon as the other students evacuated, Eraserhead and Annie were confused at to where the entire class of 2-A was. Endeavor revealed that they had been killed, all of them. The events that had transpired would then break the Hero Association into various groups. This was the greatest failure in Pro Hero History. Endeavor lead a group of those still clinging onto the fragments of the Hero Association's protocols, alongside Mirko and Midnight.
Shota Aizawa simply vanished from society completely, not a word was heard about him as he isolated himself from those around him. Annie, on the other hand, led a revolution against All For One, killing those who stood in her way. She led a group known as "The Defenders", in honor of her brother, Alyx Leonidus. A vile hatred grew in Annie's heart, making her more relentless and vicious. The Defenders manage to kill All For One, thanks to the brave sacrifice from Annie Leonidus herself.
Lizzie Leonidus, seeing the world around her, grew to hate her Quirk. As it reminded her of her brother who she never got to see again. Kariya Leonidus returned home to his mother and younger sister after years of being a villain. He apologized for everything that's happened and was told about his brother and his sister's deaths. Kariya vowed to keep both of them safe, no matter what.
The League of Villains eventually disbanded after All For One's death, each obtaining somewhat normal lives. Although having to live carefully due to the police and Pro Heroes. Dabi decided to take a trip to a local hospital, to apologize to someone he left many years ago. Himiko Toga took up a job as a school teacher, which was surprising at first, but she managed to fit in well with the job. Kiko Tomo & Dabi had secured a house for them to live in, they eventually started a family and their villainous ways were eventually forgotten about by the remaining heroes and the police force.
The Leonidus Family and the Yaoyorozu Family regularly sit and talk about their children, how they fantasized about being Pro Heroes. Yaoyorozu's father even discussed how he was already planning on granting him his blessing to marry their daughter before their passing.
When it was all said and done, the heroes departed, much like the villains. Petty crime was dealt with, but there weren't any serious crimes like the destruction of cities or the threat of a villain uprising. In the cemetery that class 2-A was buried, a Wisteria tree blossomed over them. The "U.A. Tree" as it was rightfully called, was known by the entire country of Japan and frequently visited. Respects were paid to those that lost their lives against All For One.
Sota Hirose never learned how to fully master his Quirk, but thanks to the words of Leonidus, he managed to hone his craft. Every now and again, he visits the cemetery where Alyx and the class of 2-A was buried, and sat down by the Wisteria tree. He swears he could feel someone right next to him, sitting with him, and smiling at him. He never decided to look, until one day, a note and a picture was left beside him. He picked them up, and it was a picture of Alyx, Bakugo, Deku, Momo, Uraraka, Shoto, Kaminari, Jiro, Kirishima, and Mina.
On the note, there were two familiar Hanafuda Earrings, and the words, "You Are Hope." written on the paper. Sota felt a strange warmth and comfort fall over him as he looked to the sky and smiled.
"I promise, Leonidus, I'll protect everyone! Just like you!" He shouted towards the sky.
U.A. High was abandoned, some say that you can still hear the echoes of laughter from the students who met their fate against All For One. Many people who've also entered the old dorms say that the rooms are all perfectly preserved, as if they weren't effected by time.
The old Big Three, Mirio Togata, Nejire Hado, and Tamaki Amajiki carried on with their hero work, reminiscing on their U.A. High days and the students they met. They often visited local middle schools and the other hero schools to tell them about how their dreams could be achieved if they worked hard enough.
What's to come next, you might be wondering? Well, it's fairly simple, the story doesn't end here, as this was only just a glimpse into the possible future. A choice is still yet to be made, the heroes still had one last chance at redemption. One last chance to not make the same mistake as before. One last chance to save... Izuku Midoriya!
