Keyaru brushed off whatever's left of Kaiga's supermove, unscathed.

He felt the mental tremor emitting from Kanako, whose mindbase was directed to one his Eight Bullets. Unless she's human, death was a one way ticket but far be it from humanity, despite the world-shattering pains, her nomu-bioengineered body maintained the integrity of her mind & body. Keyaru smiled and quickly eliminated Kanako by temporarily disabling her Quirk with his own Antiquirk Pistol, never was there a need to use his Quirks against children, his withdrawing of artillery was too fast for the naked eye to see. Gazing upon the remaining Heroes, he intends to kill all of them except Kanako & Matsuru.

Suddenly, black feathers prevented his quick-witted reflexes, knowing well not to react poorly against Ravens.

Keyaru remained calm & in-control of the situation, he proceeded blitzing Ravens, who could react to his fast-pacing movements. Against a winged hero, remaining on guard is something crucial, having fought not just Hawks but also his Agents to a standstill, Keyaru knew that at any given moment, underhanded tactics is his WP and that diversion on all sides was a given. Before he knew it so, Keyaru has fallen prey to the illusion of Ravens, who not only quickly evacuated the wounded at the level of Hawks speed.

Keyaru's impressed that there were still Heroes of that caliber.

It's clear to him that not only the wounded was evacuated to safety but also the civilians and Kanako herself, leaving him inclined to believe that Ravens knew of his plot to take Kanako from the Heroes, who Ravens flew away with Hebi in tow.

"As expected of the #2 Hero and successor of Hawks."

He saw that Matsuru's body has revived & slowly regaining his conscience, Keyaru deduced that Matsuru had Yusuke's Quirk, feeding off the recently copied Super Regeneration Quirk.

Ants after another, Rin arrived and froze him off of his tracks.

Both had eye contact, Rin wasn't showing any signs of fear but only hatred against Keyaru.

Unfortunately, she was knocked out by surprise by his redhead henchman, Rin was impaled by photokinetic light spears, who then shifted her attention towards Haru & Yusuke.

Yusuke once again served as a meatshield to Haru.

"You owe me two for this!"

"Lisara, do not entertain, go forth, I don't need you here." Keyaru reprimanded his henchman not to kill the students, Lisara disappeared.

Reality crumbled as space altered into a concised form.

The Heroes across the other locations got transported into the same place as Keyaru, his henchmen was also nowhere to be found, as his henchmen settled their scores with the Proheroes.

Keyaru glared at Akira, Mei, Yui, Amaya, Matsuru, Haru, Yusuke, Chinmoku, Hikari, Rin, Kazuki & Ria as he released an invisible field of force that threw off their gravity, they were being crushed by the weight of the gravity, they were also receiving images of death.

"Eirei Heroes, let this be a warning to never intervene with my business, Endeavor made a mistake, retiring without a proper successor." Within that confined domain space, there appeared a gigantic fireball, coming in fast like a meteor.

Within that confined domain space, we could see the buildings, crumbling and falling as debris, burning and melting.

Besides the crushing weight of gravity that was pulling them down, restraining them forcefully, along with the imagery of death, they could also feel their throat, burning from the intense scorching atmosphere as the fireball drew closer and closer...

The space domain is a sealed and contained area, only those inside will be obliterated into cinders while the outside world is unaffected.

You can't run because Keyaru is here.

Keyaru stood atop, whether this was a godly display of power or not, either they live or die.

What're his intentions?

Is it over for our Heroes or will there be someone to save them?

[Letter Bee]

Kazuki Yamagata

For a brief moment, Kazuki flashed back to the fall of Jaku City, how his parents had died, and how he had been captured by the League of Villains back then. How he had cried and screamed as they hurt him again and again and again -

His eyes blazed with fury, glinting with reflected light. Now that he had been teleported along with his friends to where Keyaru was grandstanding, he had enough space to force himself up, if only he could overcome the enhanced gravity, the visions of death and destruction that brought bile to his throat, and the burning meteor bearing down on them; a meteor he was suspected was an illusion.

If his gun was intact, he would raise it, pushing himself beyond his limits, gritting his teeth as he pushed the words through his lips, "Keyaru... I trust Ravens."

He pulled the trigger, hoping against hope there was an Anti-Quirk bullet in the magazine. If the meteor was an illusion or some sort of Quirk-based power, an Anti-Quirk Bullet would cancel it out. And if not, then at least he lived a full life, having experienced joy and pain and found the girl of his dreams. If he spent the last moments of his life defying Keyaru, it would be a life lived well. But even if his gun was not intact and that fact was obscured by the visions of death all around him, Kazuki would howl out even louder, "I TRUST RAVENS!"

When Jaku City had fallen, a mysterious woman from the Hawks Agency had saved him. He did not know who she was; she looked different from Ravens, after all. But after seeing the real Ravens into action, a magnificent vision of beauty second only to Hikari, his girlfriend, he knew this - Even if Ravens was not that mysterious woman in another guise, she was similar enough to trust.

He forced more words out, ignoring the pain and the strain on his body and how his eyes began to blur with tears, "Fuck Kites and his assertions - He must be a fool to put his 'Shadow Hawks' above protecting other people! Ravens came to stop you despite Kites being there; that's proof enough that she can be trusted! So fuck you, Keyaru! Meteor, gravity, or just another type of illusion, I will defy you till the very end!"

Blinking, clearing his eyes just long enough to see if he could shoot, Kazuki pointed his gun at Keyaru a second time, hoping against hope it could still shoot...

Ueno Haru

---

"You owe me two for this!"

Haru shuddered as Yusuke once again took a hit that was meant for him. For the second time today, no less. He knew that Yusuke would be alright, as he began to regenerate before his eyes, but knowing that someone is sacrificing themselves just to ensure that you’re not the one getting hurt…

Is this what the civilians feel when they see heroes get battered in battles against villains?

Haru wouldn’t have any more time to ponder that feeling when another of the villains appeared, calling upon his henchmen to fall back. His presence, his aura… it was all but overwhelming. Haru immediately readied another beam of light only for the sheer gravity of the new villain’s existence in that place to manifest quite literally. Space and time ripped apart as the villain imprisoned the heroes within a cage made out of visions and impossible timelines. The city turned into a true hellscape, even more so than when the Nomu from earlier had ravaged the streets. And far above them, a ball of fire beckoned, screaming death and destruction.

“Congratulations, Mr. Ueno. It appears that your son has an Inverted Quirk.”

‘Huh. Why am I seeing the day of my Quirk assessment?’

Haru looked at his four year old self. The blue skinned boy held an All Might action figure in his dainty little hands, his grey hair cascading onto the sides of his hair. He sat on his father’s lap, whose very presence dimmed the light around him. Like his son, the father had blue skin and grey hair; a set of mutations passed from generation to generation.

“An inverted quirk… so it is the opposite of mine?” The now-retired Pro Hero known as Storm Shadow asked the doctor while his son held the All Might figurine up here like it was a holy artifact. “A strange development…”

“Your wife being Quirkless could be a contributing factor,” the doctor replied with a shrug. “But we’ve been studying quirks for more than two centuries, and we still don’t know where Quirk Factors came from, exactly! Quirk inversions are rare, but in most cases, one of the two parents is Quirkless. If its an opposite kind of quirk, like ice and fire, you get quirk fusions, like Endeavor’s kids.”

“Hnn,” Storm Shadow nodded. “What do you want to do with your Quirk, Haru?”

“I want to be a hero, like you and All Might!”

Storm Shadow grinned. “And why do you want to be a hero?”

“I wish… I wish to make other people look and know that everything will be okay. Why? Because I AM HERE!”

“That’s the spirit…” Storm Shadow nodded. He set the boy down on the floor and bowed at the doctor. “Good afternoon doctor.”

“With a strong quirk like that, I’m sure little Haru will be a great hero one day.”

---

Heavy.

Everything is so heavy.

Haru groaned as he struggled against the gravitational distortion that the thrice-damned villain, Keyaru, summoned. He rose from the ground, his body protesting with every inch he defied the pull of the earth. Though the villain nor anyone else here would see it, for his goggled mask obscured his face, Haru’s eyes burned with defiance. No one tells Sol Invictus to just lie down and take an incoming fireball!

Haru stood up. Unlike some of the others, he wasn’t as tired yet. He hadn’t pulled off his supermove, Supernova, yet. He had yet to be injured beyond a few cuts and bruises. Still, being imprisoned in folded space, surrounded by illusions of shattered buildings, and a blazing ball of fire coming down like a proverbial Sword of Damocles, and his wounded allies all around him… one could say that this was as dire a situation any hero may find themself in.

“What can you do with your Quirk, Ueno?”

“I eat light and shit it back out.”

“No, really?”

“That is an abridged version.”

“I’m sure that you can do much more! You basically control photons, right?”

“Yeah.”

“Imagine all the applications, Ueno!”

Imagine.

And see through the lies.

Haru scanned the illusions all around him. None of this was real, of course. No one, save for maybe All Might and All for One, can reduce a city to rubble in an instant. And the abilities of this villain so far don’t line up with mass devastation. He was more of a manipulator of the fabric of spacetime.

Holograms are little more than lasers being manipulated in such a way that they form a coherent image. Lasers are just a concentrated stream of photons. And illusions… they are nothing more than photons being rearranged to make the beholder see what is not there. After all, sight is merely the brain’s interpretation of its reception of photons.

“I want to be a hero like you and All Might!”

Haru held out his hands and PULLED. He could feel every photon dancing upon every atom of air, on every quark that made up the most basic building block of reality. They were like grains of sand on a glass canvas, rearranged and manipulated to form a most sordid bastardization of what was real.

“Why do you want to be a hero?”

Separate the truth from the lies. The fake from reality. Put photons back where they should be.

“Because I AM HERE!”

The veil weakens.

Haru tugged at the illusion and ripped it apart with the sound of shattering glass. He could only imagine the surprise on the yakuza leader’s face as the intricately constructed lie unravelled and died.

Except…

That damn fireball was real?!

Would taking the radiance away from a fireball work? Haru didn’t know. But he knew well enough that he had to try. Kazuki was going to try to shoot the yakuza leader, and so Haru still had another role to play.

Haru reached out his hand to the fireball, willing it to go silent and snuff out. He wouldn’t see the result, however, as the restored world around him began to fade away, replaced by darkness.

Akira Yuzuki

---

For a brief moment, Akira’s eyes flashed back to a familiar yet unwelcomed house. He knew what exactly this place was but he had long discarded memories in exchange for happier ones.

So when flames suddenly began to spread he had no other thought than he needed to leave. He was about to open the door when he felt something else.

Suddenly he was on the floor, someone’s arms was on his neck and air was starting to be taken from him

Ĭ̵̡̾̓͒̕t̴̬̝̻̗͚͋͌̓͆̀ ̴̹͓͔̣̩̥̝̽̽̃̒̓ͅs̶̢̫̻͚̟̟͉̅̇h̷̠̟̘̍̋͌͒͝͝ó̸̢̻̪̠̳͔͂̚͝ṳ̵͔̠̈́̎̊̏̅̚l̶̛̖̦̃̐̈́̂̀̓d̶̗̯͉̹͂͋̂́́̾̈́͝ͅ ̷̜́͋̆̉͒́̑h̵̘̻̔̄͐͋ͅȃ̸̡͕͐́̉͘ͅv̶̘̫̯͎̐̌̌̽͠e̴̡͖̬̰̞̱̲̔̓̃͊̎̑͊͝ ̶̠͍̮̲͖͚̒̽̈b̷̰̅̏̑́̔̚ë̷̡̜̦̱͈̳͜e̴̫͖̜̓̄̌͑͠͝ň̵̫̭̥̱́̈̔́̃͝ ̷̨͕̦̩̹̄́̀̇̚͠m̸̩̌̑ȇ̸̘͆͌̏̿͘͝.̴̦̟͔̲͉͌͑͊̆́̒̽̈

Before any other thoughts entered his head, he found himself back to reality.

Back to his still bleeding body, to the now unthawed and injured Mei.

And to the upcoming meteor about to burn the entire class to ashes. He had a good life but he also wanted a long life.

Because every is born deserving of one.

"Everyone! Brace yourselves and don't lose everyone."

As if the meteor’s lost of flames was a signal, Class B’s representative jumped into the fray using the barriers the propel him closer to large rock.

There is no escape, so he would throw his best defense and hope that it is enough like always.

A yellow barrier shined to catch the meteor, in a closer look it wasn’t a singular barrier but an overlapping layer of countless ones. This is the culmination of his life as hero student and as kid saved by the Streetlight Office.

Akira ignored the splitting headache and bleeding nose as he let out a satisfied smile, if he was going to die. He will die trying his best, so what if it turned out to be futile?

If nothing else matters, why not try screaming into the void? So that you'll die with the comfort you die your best.

As the meteor crashed into his massive shield and about to makes it's was through something peculiar happened.

The remnants of the barrier morphed around the meteor, slowing it down massively as it attempts to crush the weapon on impact.

Meanwhile, Akira's eyes began bleeding.

[Paingodsson]

Chinmoku would look to Nemesis, a grin on his face as he could tell, that the Nomu was not expecting someone to trade blows with him. "You know, not that you have much of your own thought, but-" He would find himself completely in another area... something... somewhere had teleported him. It took him only a moment to realize what was happening as he suddenly went to his knees at the.. pressure. This pressure as if Gravity had been turned up in the room. He looked up as he saw an images of death flashing before his eyes. The panic began to set in as he seemed to hear muffled sounds of others saying things around him.

"No... NO." Chin said as he shook his head as best he could to flush the images. "That's not reality...." But that giant meteor he just realized was coming down.. was real... was very real as he noticed the people around him. Trying to stop it. Chinmoku took only a moment to close his eyes and take a breath. His senses now calmed, he opened his eyes a determined look trying to ignore the painful pressing of the gravity that continued to push down on him. "Cover your ears! Don't ask just do! He shouted to those around him. He was only supposed to use this in case of an emergency and this.... this giant meteor that seemed ready to destroy everyone and everything , was definitely that. An emergency. He was so focused he didn't even see the villains who were doing all this. One problem at a time.

He needed to take a breath. He needed a moment he wasn't sure he had. Until a boy with long hair seemed to be able to slow the meteor. I will have to remember to say thank you. thought Chin. He took a few baited breaths before taking a big breath. He had to try even harder as the gravity made it difficult the even breathe... Chinmoku realized he was going to have to give this his absolute all.... No... there was no choice, in this, it was either his all, or everyone died... or he died.... Chin's eyes widened, if he died his father would be disappointed, that on his first day.... he failed. A look of disdain covered his face as he looked up finally finished with that breath.

A screech, a yell, a scream. Whatever you wanted to call it, came from Chinmoku as he used his Banshee Screech.
youtube.com/watch?v=6rtI86rgZ9I&ab_ch… (This is essentially what I'm going for his screech.)
Louder, harder, EVERYTHING...I .... HAVE! he thought as the scream got even louder, you could see the shockwaves coming from his mouth slamming into the meteor with ferocity, but it wasn't just one. It was a shockwave, after shockwave, after shockwave slamming harder the louder his scream got. Glass would start shattering around them if there was any from the decibels that he was raising his screech to. But he couldn't stop until this meteor was destroyed.

Kaiga Asagumo

---

_{Location: ??? Shibuya, Tokyo Prefecture}

As Kaiga opened his eyes he spotted where he was and wasn’t happy destroyed buildings surrounded him decayed and destroyed. “If I’m here that must mean…” Kaiga looked around before someone spoke up. “Lighten up you make that face every time your here. Kaiga grimaced as he looked up at the figure.

“You.Kaiga grumbled out. “Yes me, as the figure jumped down we got a good view of him he looked, exactly like Kaiga however he gave off the air of being more “mature.” “Why am I here. Kaiga asked receiving a scoff from the figure.

“Your here for the same reason you are every time, you lost and I’m gonna make fun of you. Kaiga scoffed visibly frowning “If that’s the reason send me back, I don’t have time to play with you. The other Kaiga smirked at him “That’s a pretty big attitude for someone who lost, why do you want to go back so fast anyway do you need to save your little girlfriend.”

Both Kaiga’s glare at each other before the other one sighs “I’ve told you this multiple times I can’t send you back when you pass out, this is diffrent from me dragging you in when you sleep. Kaiga sighed before looking away “I should have known your useless anyway.

The other Kaiga frowns “I hate that attitude of yours You know I’ve always been trying to protect you and you act like nothing but a spoiled brat, and you’ll be gone soon anyway.The other Kaiga pointed at Kaiga’s body as it was slowly disintegrating.

“You hate me because I represent the you from before but I’m also the person who knows you best, you won’t be able to get rid of me until you accept me because we are one and the same. The other Kaiga turned his back on Kaiga before jumping onto a decayed building “I’ll be waiting for you.

Kaiga jolted up as soon as he was back looking around and letting out a sigh of relief after seeing Ria was safe before he looked up at the looming meteor. That guy (Keyaru) this is probably his doing. Kaiga growled as he said his names before getting into a position for a fire arrow.

“[color=ed1c24]Not enough got to go stronger.[color] Closing his eyes he imagined fire flowing through him before it poured out, “[color=ed1c24]FLASHFIRE FIST.[color]” Flowing all the fire he could produced into his hand Kaiga shaped it into the biggest fire arrow he could create before launching it [color=ed1c24]FIRE ARROW:MAXIMUM.[color]”
