Kariya's Demise? A Power that Rivals the Gods!

(Listen to "Might+U")

Shigaraki charged forward towards Alyx, turning his fist into nothing but his Rivet Stab Quirk. Alyx was frozen with fear, right before Shigaraki reached him, Kariya appeared in front of him. Shigaraki had impaled Kariya!

"Oops... Looks like someone got in the way!" Shigaraki laughed.

He pulled his hand out of Kariya's body and shook it off. Shigaraki walked by Alyx and smiled. He continued walking past him as he bulked up. Kariya coughed up blood and leaned his head on Alyx's shoulder.

"A-Alyx... I... I'm so... S-Sorry... I should've been... A better brother to you... Please... D-Don't... Don't be angry with me... For doing this... I... I love you, Alyx... Tell Annie... Mom... A-And Liz that... That I died a good person... That... That I died... Saving you..." Kariya croaked.

Tears filled Alyx's eyes as he began to feel Kariya fade away. Kariya let out one last breath before disappearing from Tomura's Decay. Alyx stood and stared out at the horizon with tears streaming down his face.

[Flashback]

"Yeah! Kariya can do anything! Right Mommy? Look at him!" Alyx shouted with glee.

"I'll be there for you, no matter how far we are, I promise!" Kariya smiled.

[Present Time]

Alyx's mind raced with memories of him and Kariya. Shigaraki cackled as he walked back towards Izuku. Uraraka stumbled to her feet and hugged Izuku.

"Aw... Look at that! It seems as if you'd want to die with him, how adorable! Another one bites the dust..." Shigaraki mocked.

Alyx clenched his fists and the whole world seemingly began to shake! His entire body trembled and twitched with rage and anger.

"H-How... Dare... You..." Alyx muttered.

The ground around him cracked! Alyx closed his eyes and clenched his teeth together. The debris floated into the air.

"I... I will make you... Suffer... I... I...!" Alyx shouted.

He closed his eyes as the tears continued to flow down his face. Something finally snapped inside of him, triggering a powerful response!

"HUUUUURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!" Alyx roared!

The entire area lit up with Alyx's Overdrive! Finally, pushed past his breaking point, Alyx entered his Full Power! He turned around and faced Shigaraki. Without saying a word, he appeared in front of him. One punch sent him flying into the air! Alyx appeared behind him, sending him through 8 destroyed buildings! Alyx stayed in the air, thinking about all the times he was told he wasn't fast enough. Everyone flashed through his thoughts.

"You weren't fast enough to save him... But just this once, Alyx, please! BREAK THROUGH YOUR LIMITS! BE FAST ENOUGH TO SAVE EVERYONE ELSE, NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY!! JUST... DOOOOO IIIIIIIIT!!!" Alyx thought.

His eyes widened as his entire being became a luminescent blue. He barreled down the battlefield and rammed right into Tomura! In a blazing blue light, he rattled his fists against Tomura over 100,000 times! He flew into the air with Shigaraki in tow, and cast him down with a huge Flash Cannon! Alyx raised his hands into the air and down poured his Stardust Shoot onto Shigaraki. Millions and millions of beams of Overdrive riddled Tomura's body! He zipped down to the ground, shattering the area around him, and sent Shigaraki flying backwards. Tomura managed to rebound but Alyx was coming right for him! The others joined in, they shot off various attacks, they pummeled Shigaraki! Momo jumped up into the air, her and Alyx crashed down onto Tomura with a fierce combination kick!

"Alyx! Do it!" She shouted to him.

Bakugo and Izuku got up off the ground and charged toward Tomura. Using the last bit of strength they had left, they darted past Alyx! Alyx followed suite and flew next to them, his body still glowing bright blue!

"One last shot... ONE LAST CHANCE TO CHANGE THE FUTURE!!" All three of them thought.

They stuck their hands out and all three of them grabbed Tomura! In a flash of blinding light, the battle had stopped. The three heroes stood, almost frozen in time, touching Tomura's face. The others got up and wondered what had happened.

"H-He... He did it..." Momo mumbled.

"What? W-What do you...?" Annie asked.

Not only was it Alyx, but Izuku and Katsuki were trying to save Tomura! Using the powers of the Seventh Plane, the three boys had entered it, pulling Tomura with them! All of their eyes were closed and they stood in place motionless.

[In the Seventh Plane...]

*LEONIDUS' P.O.V.*

We opened our eyes and saw nothing but white. I managed to do it! There sat a young boy, he was sitting with his head in his hands, rocking back and forth. A darkness surrounded him. We walked towards him, I knelt down and put my hand on his shoulder.

"Tenko?" I called out.

He stopped rocking and slowly turned his head around to face us. For the first time, I saw genuine emotion on his face. Tears rolled down his face as he backed away from us.

"D-Don't touch me! I-I'm gonna hurt you!" He shouted.

I looked over at Deku and Bakugo. I stretched my hand out to him.

"Tenko, you aren't going to hurt us, I promise!" I smiled.

My smile somewhat calmed him down and he slowly approached us. He closed his eyes as he put his hand on mine. Tenko looked up and gasped as he saw that I was still in front of him. He got up and hugged me, nearly knocking me backwards, and cried hard into my shoulder. Deku placed his hand on his head and rubbed it, he looked up and smiled through his tears.

"Shit... Looks like we aren't alone." Bakugo scowled.

I looked up towards the darkness, there stood All For One. He didn't say a word as Deku picked Tenko up and as we glared at him. We walked towards the light, as Deku and Bakugo walked through with Tenko, I turned around to face All For One.

"Hey, I've got something for you." I told him.

I flipped him off, "Fuck you."

I phased out of the Seventh Plane and returned back to the real world.

[Present Time]

I opened my eyes and landed back on the ground. We removed our hands from Tomura's face. Tears rolled down his face as he stared at us. Whatever form I was in faded and I fell backwards, which Tomura caught me! He was staring at me.

"Alyx... All of you... Thank you..." He teared up.

I smirked as I coughed up blood. We all walked through the barren town together.

"I... I should've seen that you guys were only trying to help me. Thank you." He told us.

"So, are we calling you Shigaraki or Tenko?" Bakugo asked.

He looked down at the ground, "Tenko. I like that better."

We made our way back to the others. They were looking at us funny, almost as if we brought a super criminal to them.

"Hey! I did it!" I shouted with glee.

[5 Minutes Later...]

"S-So... He's not gonna kill us? Are you sure about that?" Jiro asked.

"Yep! If he does, I won't hesitate to rip him limb from limb!" I cheerfully smiled.

Bakugo looked at me with a concerned look, the same with Tenko and everyone else.

"You've been hanging around Toga, haven't you?" Tenko joked.

Multiple SWAT vans and Police cars pulled up. They hurried out and apprehended Tenko. As they loaded him up in one of the vans, he turned back and gave Deku, Bakugo and I one last smile before they closed the van doors. I sat down on the ground and sighed.

"Merry fuckin' Christmas." I sighed.

Deku sat down beside me, "What was that thing you did? Your entire body was glowing blue!"

"I've got no idea, one minute I'm telling myself to break my limits, the next I'm a human glowstick." I laughed.

I stood back up, "Are you guys alright, though?"

"We're fine, a bit banged up, but fine." Mr. Aizawa told me.

"Are you okay, Alyx?" Uraraka asked.

Kariya flashed through my mind. I didn't know what to say. Momo looked at me with concern, so did Deku and Iida.

[2 Hours Later...]

I sat on my bed and stared at my floor. I closed my eyes, but all I could see was Kariya getting stabbed by Shigaraki. My door opened and I looked up to see who it was.

"Hey." Annie greeted.

I softly smiled and looked back down at the ground. Annie sat down next to me and put her arm around me.

"He... He's really gone, isn't he?" I wondered.

Annie didn't say anything, instead, she looked out of the balcony window. I looked up, and I couldn't believe my eyes, Kariya was standing in my room! I stood up and so did Annie.

"Y-You... You're alive?!" I exclaimed.

"What? You sound like you wanted me to be dead." Kariya joked.

I rushed over and hugged him. We stood there for a couple of minutes.

"Are you done yet? I'm starting to lose feeling in my arms." Kariya asked.

I stopped hugging him and smiled at him. Karyia narrowed his eyes at me and Annie smacked him on the back of his head.

"Could you not be an asshole for just one minute? Is that too much to ask?" Annie questioned.

Kariya rolled his eyes, "I dunno, could you go one day without seeing that boyfriend of yours?"

"H-HE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND, DAMN IT!" Annie shouted as she blushed.

"Boyfriend...? You have a boyfriend?" I questioned.

"He- No he-" Annie sputtered.

Kariya interrupted her, "Yeah, it's that Hawks dude. She's totally head over heels for him."

"H-HAWKS?!" I exclaimed.

"Well... It's just that I think he's really cute. But THAT'S. IT." Annie sternly fumed.

"Uh huh, sure. Didn't you say the same thing about that Edgeshot guy?" Kariya chuckled.

They argued back and forth with each other, and it honestly felt like everything was normal, somewhat.

[Later That Night...]

I laid in my bed thinking about what would happen next. With Tomura gone, could we finally live in peace? My train of thought was broken as my door opened. Momo walked in with a blanket, pillow, and tired eyes.

"Rough night?" I wondered.

"That depends, darling, how long have you been up?" She asked.

"Good point!" I laughed.

She threw the pillow at my face and laid down next to me.

"So, did Dr. Shield tell you everything before you left?" Momo questioned.

I nodded at her, "Yeah, my memory's been completely restored. I have to say, I don't really feel any different. It does feel nice, though. I also feel a lot better about things too!"

"That's wonderful! So, do you remember anything about your life in America?" Momo asked.

"Hmm... Oh! I remember that when I was little, I had an Endeavor onesie that I used to wear. I got it for Christmas one year, after that, I had no idea where it went." I told her.

"Aww... That sounds cute! I bet you looked adorable!" Momo responded.

"Speaking of childhood, how'd you get your Quirk? Or well, when'd it start?" I smiled.

"Well, I started developing it when I turned four. I started making these little Russian Dolls for my parents, which is why there's so many of them at their home. From there, my parents helped me work out my Quirk, and the rest is history. I'm still proud that I got a recommendation. Speaking of that, where were you during that recommendation exam?" Momo told me.

"There was a recommendation exam? What? I had no idea there was an exam!" I exclaimed.

Momo looked at me in awe, "You didn't know?! You're telling me you got in for free? Actually wait... Maybe not."

"Yeah... Are you thinking that when I saved you from that giant, I somehow had proven myself to U.A.?" I questioned.

"That's exactly what I've been thinking." She agreed.

I put my arm around Momo and she laid her head on my chest.

"So, are we finally at peace? We won't have to worry about fighting anymore?" I wondered.

"Well, wherever there's light, there's always a lingering darkness. Maybe not now, but I think soon. Knowing our luck, the Quartet Girls would break out of prison tomorrow!" Momo responded.

"Yeah, let's just hope that doesn't happen!" I laughed.

After wondering about the future, Momo asked me something that I completely forgot about.

"So, Kaminari sent me something a while ago. I didn't know what is was until I remembered you guys were having some sort of slumber party in his room." Momo told me.

"Huh? He did? I remember the sleepover but I honestly don't remember what he recorded." I replied.

"Well, you guys were doing Truth or Dare and..." Momo stopped.

My face turned red, "O-Oh, right! Well... I... I meant what I said, truly!"

"I know, I just think it's nice that you're planning ahead, darling!" Momo smiled.

I rubbed the back of my head and smiled back, "W-Well, I tend to plan ahead as it is!"

She giggled and laid her head back down on my chest. For the first time in a while, I slept soundly.
