9: Beginning of the End

•-•-•-•-•

In a humble home, we can see two people in the dining room...

"So, how was your first day in U.A., Aki?" asked Minami, our Protagonist's mother.

"It was really fun. All Might is teaching there, actually..." Akira replied.

"Oh, so those rumors were true!" she exclaimed

She added, "How were your teachers?"

"They're... interesting? I mean, I really like our Homeroom Teacher. Present Mic always kept

us on our toes when he taught today. Ectoplasm really made learning Math easier since he didn't follow the book's equations... And Cementoss, well, he recreated the Setting of a story he was teaching, so his class isn't boring."

...

They continued talking about how their days went. And when they finished, Akira goes inside his room.

{Akira POV}

The USJ Incident is approaching. News about All Might teaching in U.A. is circling around the internet. The reporters might come tomorrow. Fighting the League of Villains is inevitable. That's why I need something to protect me. A technique that can go against Villains faster and stronger than me.

I already have something in mind, but it's going to include some experimentation. The first thing I have in mind is a self-induced adrenalin rush. So, I put my hand on my chest, especially where the heart is supposed to be, and,

"Accelerate" I can feel my heartbeat rate increasing. This feeling... feels similar to the feeling I had when I asked Guraba-sensei to spar with me. It works! The next thing includes enlarging my muscles.

Experimenting on my body is quite dangerous, but considering what will happen in the future... It's a risk I'm willing to make. First I touch my right arm, focus my energy on my skin,

"Elastic", now onto the muscles and bones, "Enlarge"... It hurts a little bit, but I can see my arm increase in size! I need to see how long I can maintain this until I see some bad reactions.

...

5 minutes pass and I see my left arm pale. Hmm, because my right arm is enlarged, the left one is getting less blood. But I can see a simple solution. I just need to accelerate the pumping of my heart. "Accelerate".

After a few minutes, my left arm regains color.

*Snap* As I snap my fingers, I can't help but smile due to my experiment working.

'Now I have something that can go against Villains both stronger and faster than me!'

•-•-•-•-•

A few days pass...

The sun poured through my windows as another day had dawned.

Wow, I didn't know I was a poet...

Anyways, I shower, eat, and go out of the house, but not after saying goodbye to my mother.

...

I arrive at the school gates. Reporters are gathered, like moths attracted to fire.

"You there! Are you a student of All Might? How is he doing?" asked a reporter.

"I'm very sorry but I don't talk to adult strangers whom I don't recognize. Stranger Danger." I answer with a straight face and a tick mark shows on his forehead.

I quickly go inside the school.

...

"Man, there are so many reporters!" exclaimed Kaminari.

"Alright, class get to your seats." said Aizawa as he walks through the door.

"I hope you're all rested from yesterday's Battle Training. Also, I took a look at the recordings and evaluations of your Battle Training."

"Bakugo, stop acting like a child. You're wasting your talent."

"Tch. I know" the mentioned student answers.

"And Midoriya" The messy-haired boy freezes.

"Are you always planning on destroying your arm? If you always use the excuse "I can't control my quirk so I don't have a choice", then you'll never get far." he said.

"Now, let's get on with the Homeroom Notices... Today, you're going to pick a Class President"

"It's something school-like!"

...

"I wanna be president!"

"Pick me!"

"I wanna do it!"

"Choose me, extras!!!"

...

"Everyone! This is a position tasked with heavy responsibility! This position requires great esteem and trust around you!" Iida shouted... with raised hands.

"I agree with Iida-san. Just because you want to do it, doesn't mean you can." I added, and Iida smiles at this.

"Thank you, Takumi-kun! Now, I recommend that we settle this with a vote!"

"But, everyone will just vote for themselves!" said Kirishima

"That's exactly why the person who gets the most votes will be the most appropriate person for the job." Iida stated.

"Is that all right, Aizawa-sensei?" he added.

"You can do whatever you want." Aizawa replied with a yawn

"I got 4 votes?" I questioned.

"I-I-I got 3 votes?!!" shouted Midoriya.

"It's a tie... How should we settle this?..." asked Momo.

"N-n-no, Yaoyorozu-san. Y-y-you can be the Vice-President."

And I said, "Okay. There, it's settled"

"Okay, it's settled. Takumi will be the President, and Momo is the Vice-President." Aizawa concluded.

...

"You know, I'm really impressed at how Lunchrush can serve a whole school of students, by himself!" exclaimed a certain pink-skinned girl, while muching natto.

"Yes, Lunchrush is indeed respectable." said Momo. Akira invited Momo, alongside Tokoyami, to come eat with them.

"I know, right? So manly!" shouted Kirishima, with manly tears...

"So, did you guys vote for me?" asked Akira.

"Yep!"

"Yes, Akira-san"

"Of course, Takubro!"

"Why?" asked Akira.

"Well, I just wanted to. And after you and Iida said all those things about being the President, I lost appeal!" replied Mina.

Kirishima replies, "For me, even though what you did at the Battle Training wasn't manly, it was still smart and cool!"

"I experienced first-hand how witty you are, Akira-san. So, it was only right that I vote for you." replied Momo.

"I'm sorry, Takumi-kun. But I voted for Yaoyorozu-san." stated a bird-headed student.

"It's all right, Tokoyami. Hmm, so you voted for Momo too, huh?" replied Akira.

"You voted for me, Akira-san?" asked Momo.

"Well, of course. I-" as Akira was about to reply, loud sirens blasted through the speakers.

Panic filled the students' minds. Like sheep, the students were running, trying to get to a much safer place. And in doing so, someone knocks over Akira's Ramen.

'No, they, did not, just knock over my food...' thought Akira.

He quickly grabbed his chopsticks,

"Enlarge" gripping it, "Float Up".

"Hey, dummies! Look at the window! It's just some reporters. And look around, you IDIOTS are trampling over your own schoolmates! You're students of U.A., act like it!" shouted Akira.

'I really like to run my mouth when I get angry... Even in my past life... It followed me all the way through my second life...' thought Akira

...

After the students helped each other,

"I'm sorry for my mouth, everyone." he says to the group.

"Someone knocked over my ramen..." he continued with a crestfallen look.

"It's okay, Takumi-san. You didn't do anything wrong" said Tokoyami.

"Also, I think you can ask for another order of Ramen from Lunchrush..." added Momo.

"I see. Thank you, Momo-san, but I think that lunch break is over..." he replied.

{Akira POV}

Hoooo... The USJ Incident might happen tomorrow, so once I get home, I need to start training my new technique, immediately.

In a sketchy bar, found in a sketchy alley...

"Master Tomura, I have the schedule." said a purple fog.

"Yes... The Symbol of Peace's fall... is going to commence!"

"All Might will die!" shouted a man, as his dry lips turn upward, forming a creepy smile...

What did you think of the chapter?

Also, what are your opinions on Reincarnated Antagonists? What if the main Antagonist of a Reincarnated Protagonist is also a reincarnator, from the same world? Not going to write something like this in this fanfic, I'm just curious...
