Iida looked through the eyes of his helmet at Stain as he dug through everything he knew of the villain. He'd done as much research as possible leading up to his internship, and all he could find was that the Hero Killer was skilled with blades of all kinds and that he always had at least three victims in any given city he was. His victims always displayed slash and stab wounds, but what stuck with Iida the most was what Midoriya told him. "Iida I've fought Stain and he uses techniques like mine." Knowing this would give him a leg up, but not by much. He needed to make every second count.

I don't have to beat him; I just need to get Native out of here. Iida thought to himself as he took a running stance.

"Well come on boy come save this filth, if you can!" Stain shouted as Iida rocketed forward going for an engine powered roundhouse. Stain smirked leaping above Iida. "You know I let your brother live in hopes that he would serve as a warning to this world of fake heroes, but still nothing has changed. Maybe your death will leave more of an impact!" Stain growled as he kicked forward the spikes on the toe of his boot tearing at Iida's costume as the young hero dodged to the side running along the wall towards Native.

"Almost there!" Iida shouted mentally as he reached for the Pro only to have to break off as Stain appeared before him nearly impaling Iida on his blade.

"You didn't think it would be that easy did you?" Stain asked as Iida and he locked eyes. Iida grit his teeth as he looked between Stain and Native. Stain was fast not as fast as Iida, but close he couldn't rely on just his speed like he'd planned.

I should have known that my speed wasn't enough to overcome Midoriya so why would it work against someone even more skilled? I need a plan. Iida thought to himself as he rushed forward jumping off the wall sailing over Stain as if heading for Native again, but right as he Iida reached his zenith Iida activated his engines directing him straight down at Stain his foot coming down on the villain who blocked with the side of his sword feeling Iida's weight crash down onto him before noticing the grin on Iida's face.

"Now Recipro Burst!" Iida shouted activating his last ditch move propelling himself at Native using Stain's sword as a leaping off point the force of his acceleration snapping the villain's sword as he flew towards Native grabbing hold of the hero as Iida's feet hit the ground and they took off towards the mouth of the alley. "I'm going to make it!" Iida thought before feeling searing pain in one of his legs causing him to stumble and fall dropping Native as he did so. The Pro hit the ground and rolled like a ragdoll.

"That was a nice try kid. I didn't expect something so crafty from a kid like you." Stain said as he came towards the two. Iida looked down at his leg seeing the knife embedded in his flesh. "I commend your effort, it was truly heroic and for that, I will let you live." Stain said pulling a knife from one of his many holsters. "But that piece of garbage is too far gone and must be cleansed." Stain said with cold malice before hurling the knife. Iida saw the flash of light as the blade caught the light of the moon. He watched the blade move in slow motion and without even noticing it his body seemingly moved on its own flinging him over Native as he felt the knife bite deep into his back.

Iida bit back his scream clenching his jaw as a groan rattled through his teeth. "Kid stop! Get out of here I'm not worth this!" Native shouted looking at the child protecting him from this madman at the risk of his own body. Stain stood a few feet away completely shocked at what he just saw. This kid had thrown himself in the path of his blade without a second thought.

"You are worthy brother of Ingenium far worthier than your brother. I don't want to kill you. Move and let me conclude my business here. You don't have to die." Stain said as he looked up at the sound of an explosion. "That idiot, it seems you won't be the only person I kill tonight." Stain said standing over Native who was still being protected by Iida. "MOVE!" Stain shouted as Iida shook his head.

"I will not. I won't let you kill him!" Iida shouted thoughts of Midoriya in his head and the lengths to which he'd go in this situation.

"Very well child, have it your way." Stain said raising his broken sword the ragged edge of the blade catching the light of the moon before Stain brought it down only for the sword to be knocked off course by a shuriken which lodged itself in the wall across from the hero killer.

"I think that's enough Saki." Said a man standing at the end of the alley dressed in a red Kimoto with a hood covering his face and a straight cane with a jade pommel he held in front of him. Stain turned from his two captives his eyes glaring at the newcomer before recognition dawned in his eyes.

"Yoshi I see you've returned to Japan." Stain said walking forward to stand in front of the new man. "Didn't you give up playing hero after failing to kill me?" Stain questioned as Yoshi raised his head his amber eyes glowing in the dark of his hood.

"I didn't fail Yoshi. I gave you a chance to change and be better because I still believed that you could change, but seeing you here and now. I know that is no longer possible, and all the death you caused is my fault so I will take responsibility for it." Yoshi spoke calmly to his adversary. Iida stared on at the two before hearing the newcomer speak.

"Boy take that man and leave here. Don't look back or stop no matter what." Yoshi said before looking at Iida and giving a gentle smile. "Izuku would be very unhappy to see you injured." Yoshi said before without even looking he locked his cane with Stain's blade. Yoshi opened his eyes as he looked at Stain. "Leave now!" Yoshi shouted swiping Stain's sword away before delivering a punch to Stain's diaphragm. The villain gave an audible gasp as Iida slowly rose to his feet. The knives in his leg and back hindered his movement, but he wouldn't let that stop him. He placed his hand on the wall as he leaned Native against him slowly hobbling his way out of the alley to the sound of battle behind him.

"I have to keep moving. I need to get out of here and find help." Iida panted his breaths getting heavier and harder to take, but he wouldn't stop. His leg felt as if it was on fire as he felt his warm blood bleed through his suit his pant leg sticking to him like a second skin. The view of the alleyway was getting blurry, but Iida didn't stop. "A Hero protects the innocent, a Hero protects the innocent." This was the mantra Iida recited to himself to give him motivation to keep moving. Something whizzed past Iida's ear, but still Iida moved.

"A Hero protects the innocent."

The entrance to the alley was only a few feet away now Iida could see the lights of the street and hear the voices of heroes as they worked.

"A Hero protects the innocent."

Iida went to raise his foot, but the limb was numb and drug across the ground causing him and Native to fall to the ground outside the entrance. "Hey who's that?" Someone shouted as Iida attempted to drag himself further.

"There's a man fighting he needs…help."

"Hey kid, take it easy you're safe now. Someone get an ambulance here!" The same hero shouted.

"IIDA!" Iida recognized this voice as his vision slowly began to grow dark.

"Manual…I'm…sorry." Iida passed out there on the concrete surrounded by heroes as they waited for first responders while others proceeded into the alley to investigate Iida's claim about fighting.

"Tch he got away. Now what Yoshi will you exact another half measure on me again? Don't you understand, what I'm doing is the only way that the world will realize what a true hero is!" Stain shouted dropping his broken sword to retrieve a pair of knives to slashat Yoshi who skillfully dodged parrying with his cane before going for a sweep that Stain jumped into the air avoiding as he threw several knives down at Yoshi who countered with his shuriken.

"You're wrong Saki, they may not be perfect, but these heroes are doing their best to help, and among them are those who are truly heroic. You saw it just now and I know you've seen it in my student." Yoshi said looking at Stain who grinned.

"I can't deny that. Your boy possesses the heart of a true hero as does Ingenium's little brother, but for every one like them there are dozens of fakers, the balances is too far skewed, so I'll continue my righteous work until there are no fakes left, will you do what it takes to stop me Yoshi?" Stain said raising his knives as Yoshi mirrored his movement raising his cane.

"I won't let you continue this Yoshi no matter what it takes." The two stared each other down before leaping towards one another the sound of clashing metal ringing through the alley.

Izuku stepped out of the gravity chamber clutching the side of the doorway as he stepped through it and looked at the readout on the monitor next to the door 100Gs. He smiled as he looked at Melissa who handed him a bottle of water. "You did it! 100gs I can't believe it. I know you had a bit of a head start, but in four days you maxed out the machine this is unprecedented." Melissa said looking at her tablet before looking at Izuku and smiled. "You really are incredible you know that." Melissa said blushing looking at Izuku's bare sweaty chest.

"You're the amazing one Melissa. I wouldn't have been able to do this without you. Our promise drove me to this." He said holding his hand to her cheek as the older girl blushed.

"Oh that reminds me I've finished your suit, well mostly finished I'll probably be up the rest of the night putting on the finishing touches." Melissa said turning to the case sitting on the lab table, before feeling Izuku grab her hand.

"Melissa…it's time." He said simply but firm in his statement as Melissa sighed nodding her head.

"…A promise is a promise I suppose." She said making her way over to the desk and sitting down in the chair as Izuku grabbed a seat across from her. "Ok go ahead tell me what you wanted to say back then." Melissa told him. She couldn't believe how long it had actually been. Izuku had been here for a week tomorrow. He'd be leaving that afternoon. On one hand it felt like they'd been together for months, but at the same time like no time had passed since she met him in her father's lab days ago, and now he'd be leaving her. It was all too much, but Melissa had to concentrate whatever Izuku had to say she wouldn't, couldn't let it affect her feelings for him.

"I have….girlfriends… six of them to be exact." Izuku said as bluntly as possible. He'd been thinking about how to say that almost constantly while he was training and he settled on being as direct and honest as possible. He'd closed his eyes as tightly as possible when he said not knowing what to expect, but after several moments of silence He cracked one eye open to look at Melissa who seemed to be sitting in a state of shock. Her eyes glazed as her mouth repeatedly closed and opened like a fish out of water. "Uhh M-Melissa?" Izuku asked reaching out to touch her, but the sound of his voice seemed to reboot the girl as she sat up straight flinching away from his hand.

"S-six of them you say. You have…six girlfriends Izuku?" Melissa asked as Izuku nodded shamefully. "So that girl you were talking to a few days ago she was one of them?" Melissa asked as Izuku nodded looking at Melissa as she worked everything out in her head. "And you want me to be your girlfriend…too?" Melissa asked as she looked at Izuku without a moment's hesitation shook his head.

"I know how it sounds, but I swear it's not like I'm some philanderer. I sincerely love each and every one of them, and I know it's only been a few days that I've spent with you Melissa, but to me it feels as if I've known you for so much longer. You're so passionate about science and you make me want to live up to all the expectations you have for me. I really like you Melissa and I want to be with you…if you'll have me." Izuku said blushing madly, but he didn't take his eyes from hers. Melissa looked at Izuku and the raw honesty he exuded was terrifying to look him in the eyes when he got like this; terrifying and exhilarating at the same time.

"Izuku do you know how crazy this sounds; one man six women, no seven women counting me. That is… well to be honest it's not as weird as it sounds looking at it from a scientific viewpoint. Harems are not as uncommon as people think, but still!" Melissa said sitting down and looking at Izuku. "I want to believe you Izuku, I do but…" Melissa petered off she had no argument besides her feelings, and that just didn't feel like enough.

"I didn't inherit my quirk it was given to me."

Melissa looked up from the floor as she looked at Izuku adjusting her glasses. "Come again?" She asked as Izuku took a deep breath.

"The quirk I have now, I wasn't born with it. I was given this quirk by…" Izuku bit his lip as he tried to force the truth out into the open air. "I'm sorry All Might!" Izuku lamented, but he knew that it would take a leap of faith for Melissa to trust him, and he cared for her enough to risk everything. "My quirk was given to me by Al-!"

"STOP!" Melissa shouted covering Izuku's mouth with her palms as her clear blue eyes full of tears stared into Izuku's green ones. "Just stop. I-I believe you love me and all the girls you have with you, so stop." Melissa said taking her hands from Izuku's mouth. "You were about to tell me something really painful weren't you." Her words were a statement of fact not a question. "I could see it on your face. Whatever you were about to tell me was truly painful to the point you were forcing yourself to say anything." She said as she grabbed Izuku's hand seeing the small streams of blood coming from his hand where he'd clenched it into a fist.

"If you were willing to do something so utterly painful for you just for me, how could I not believe you?" She said picking his fist up. It was so hard and rough against her soft palms. Melissa kissed each of Izuku's knuckles before covering his hand with hers. "I'm yours Izuku." She said moving forward to kiss him on the lips. Izuku received her joyfully pulling her close to him as the two kissed trying their best to pour out all their delayed passion as Melissa seemingly melted into Izuku's warm hard body taking special notice of the bulge in his pants resting against her crotch as she sat in his lap.

"My oh my Izuku is all that for me?" She asked letting her hand drift down his chest to his torso and finally to rest on the beast in his pants.

"Well you're the only one around, so I g-guess so." Izuku stuttered trying to be clever as Melissa giggled standing up as she grabbed hold of Izuku's hand pulling him after her as they rode the elevator to the home she shared with her father. She couldn't believe that this would be one of her final times with Izuku, but she couldn't focus on that right now as the doors opened revealing her home. Melissa stepped into her home looking over her shoulder at Izuku as she led him to her room. She opened the door and looked at the mess of papers and notes as well as sketches and such. She really should have cleaned up before this, but before she could lament her disorderly bedroom she was lifted into the air in Izuku's strong arms before the two fell onto her bed.

Izuku wasted no time in attacking her neck his lips dancing her along her throat as he began unbuttoning the blue button down shirt she'd worn that day chasing each button with a kiss to the newly revealed skin until coming to her bra. She blushed as Izuku looked at the plain brassiere she'd chosen to wear that day, yet another choice she'd regret as Izuku's fingers nimbly undid the rest of her shirt spreading it open as he then moved to her bra undoing the clip in the front allowing her bust to sway free of its confines.

Izuku stared at her for a moment before cupping a tit in each hand gently massaging her orbs his fingers dancing across her nipples drawing forth breathy moans from Melissa as she writhed on the bed her thighs rubbing against one another. "Izukuuu!" She moaned out as Izuku smiled down at her releasing her breasts for the time being as his hands moved to her pants undoing the button before sliding them down her legs revealing her creamy limbs and plaid panties. Izuku chuckled at the sight causing Melissa to blush. "Don't laugh!" She said batting him with her calves before Izuku captured one of her legs peppering it with kisses starting from her ankle and working his way up to the juncture between her legs.

Melissa could feel his breath puffing against her needy cunt. She felt his hand at her waistband before sliding her panties right off her taking notice of the string of arousal linking the article of clothing to her pussy before it snapped free. Izuku reached for his shorts he'd been wearing for his training and slid them down revealing his thick, throbbing cock standing straight as an arrow in direct defiance of gravity and pointed straight at Melissa cunt. "Condoms." Izuku said to Melissa who was lost in appraising Izuku's member.

"..W-what?" She asked as Izuku leaned forward laying his cock flush against her slit causing Melissa to shiver in anticipation.

"Do you have condoms?" Izuku whispered against her ear as Melissa shook her head no.

"N-No I have an i-implant." She said feeling Izuku's member lying against her like this was scrambling her brain barely allowing her to string words together. Izuku panted against her for a moment processing what she'd said before grabbing hold of his member and lining it up with Melissa's pussy and slowly began sliding into her folds. Melissa curled her toes at the new sensation she was feeling. It was amazing until she felt Izuku tear her hymen it stung a little, but she'd felt worse experimenting and having said experiments blow up in her face.

Izuku groaned feeling the tight confines of Melissa's pussy grip his cock massaging every inch begging for him to explode inside her, but he resisted the urge to jackhammer her cunt for the moment. He didn't want Melissa to be in anymore pain than was necessary. Looking at Izuku Melissa smiled seeing the boy holding himself back for her benefit. "It's ok I'm ready to take it all." She whispered to him before pressing her lips flush with his even going so far as to deepen it by pushing her tongue into his mouth tasting ever y inch of Izuku's mouth as he did the same to her. She could tell he had practiced as he thoroughly dominated her tongue with his own before the two pulled away.

Izuku threaded his fingers through Melissa hair feeling the silky strands flow through his fingers as he thrust in and out of Melissa's moist pussy hearing the sounds of their lovemaking drove Izuku to do more. He sat up looking down at Melissa with a smile as bright as the sun. She never wanted to be without that smile of his. Izuku pulled Melissa to his chest having her sit in his lap as he thrust up into her making her yelp as he struck her at a new angle. Melissa wrapped her legs around Izuku's waist squeezing him tightly trying to force even more of him into her cunt as she panted in his ear her hair moist with sweat lying against her back and across her forward as Izuku gripped her ass pounding her hard and fast.

"M-Melissa g-g-gonna…cum!" Izuku hissed into her shoulder before kissing it as Melissa grinned happily.

"Do it…inside it's….ok!" She gasped out before sinking her teeth into Izuku's shoulder as the boy sped up only for Melissa to then feel a flood of warmth surge into her core. Her nails dug into his back as she screamed in pleasure loud enough to wake the dead before the two fell back to the bed on their sides facing each other. Melissa's legs lay entangled with Izuku as the two looked at one another and smiled.

Izuku brushed the hair out of Melissa's eyes only for the girl to just realize that her glasses were gone. She began looking around before finding them on the floor and replacing them so she could look Izuku properly in the eye. "…Hi." She said and then burst into giggles at how absurdly small that word seemed in the aftermath of what they'd done.

Izuku joined her in a quiet giggle before responding. "Hi." He said as the two devolved into another giggle fest. Slowly the two began to drift off Izuku wrapping his arms around Melissa and falling asleep, but the older girl had only feigned sleep waiting until Izuku had drifted off before stealthily pulling herself from his embrace and throwing her blanket over him. She got to her feet nearly falling on her face as the feeling slowly came back into her legs and the sensation of Izuku's gift dripping down her leg. She blushed at the thought before getting dressed again and clumsily making her way to the lab. She had a suit to finish.

Izuku stood in the airport of I-Island holding hands with Melissa. His flight would be leaving soon, but he just couldn't bring himself to stop staring into those beautiful blue eyes of hers. "Melissa I-." Melissa kissed Izuku stopping whatever he was about to say and pushed the case containing his new suit into his chest.

"Don't say anything it'll be too hard, besides you're wearing my property you're going to have to come back to get it repaired." She said holding his hand and stroking the red bracelet on his wrist. "Go make the world a better place." She said pushing him towards the airport gate. "And tell Uncle Might I said hi!" Melissa said as Izuku waved at her until the moment he entered the hall to the airplane.

"Of course I will. I'll be thinking about you Melissa." Izuku said as he left from view. Melissa stood there her hand slowly waving before coming to a stop and taking a deep breath before she turned and walked away.

I'll see him again, I know I will. Melissa thought to herself as she wiped away a few lingering tears as she headed back to her home which would feel so much emptier now.

As the plane took off Izuku jolted in his seat. "I didn't get Melissa's number!" He said in a harsh whisper falling back into his seat as he looked at his phone only to see he had an alert. Thinking it was a missed call or text from one of the girls he opened it to see Melissa's name and number added to his contacts. Izuku smiled as he shook his head. "She thinks of everything." He said simply with a big smile on his face.
