[ 34 ]→Fate Bound By Blood
Meanwhile,
The future,
In the underground hideout...
Third Person's POV
Ikki stares at the specially designs metal watch that is invented by the government's skillful scientists; A time travel device. It is given by Inspector Takeru Tsukauchi after he confesses his desire to help Akimi earlier. The other heroes strongly protest, telling that it is dangerous for him but somehow, Takeru gives him permission.
And so, the inspector agrees to allow Ikki to go back to the past too in order to assist Akimi. He is given a special, high tech device. The time travel watch allows its wearer to travel through the time space. Its wearer only needs to set the date and the place of the past they want to go. Very simple and easy to use, unlike the time machine that's much more complicated.
Ikki clenches his fist determinedly as he thinks about Akimi. "It's okay, Mi-chan. I will come for you! I won't let that bastard hurt you and everyone else anymore!" He declares to himself, strongly desire to defeat Akuma.
As Ikki is alone with his own thoughts, the pro heroes finally arrive in the room he is staying. They all look extremely worried, especially Ochako who has been crying all the time. She wants to stop her son but she knows it is pointless when Ikki already makes up his mind.
Takeru; the niece of Inspector Tsukauchi who is also known as All Might's good friend; and a man with blonde are the last ones to enter the white room. Takeru's black pupils stare at the male brunette. The three of them nod in unison.
"The preparation is done. We will depart any second from now. Are you ready?" Kagayakin says in seriousness. Ikki is sweating a little bit, perharps nervous with the next outcome but contains his nervousness.
"I'm ready!" Ikki confidently answers before walking closer to Takeru and Kagayakin. "Hold on, why are you coming with us too, Uncle Kin?" The curious teen boy asks the tall blonde male. Kagayakin stares at Takeru, signifying him to answer.
"He is coming along for a special operation. We need him the most in this mission." Takeru calmly explains to the young male. "Special operation? But your Quirk is..." Ikki's red eyes widen in realization. "Don't tell me, you are going to do that to Akimi...! That will only hurt her feelings!" Ikki curses in anger after realizing his secret plan.
"We are not doing this to Akimi but to the people in the past. We are doing this for the sake of the future too, Ikki." Kagayakin calmly retorts while displaying a small smile, ruffling his chestnut hair to calm his temper down.
"Now, we should go. We have no time to waste." Takeru coughs a bit to get the two's attention, his finger taps the metal watch that has the same design as Ikki's. "Alright!" Ikki replies.
"Wait!" A man's voice catches everyone's attention. They turn to the direction the voice comes from and see Eijiro running toward them. "Uncle Eijiro? What's wrong?" Ikki asks the redhead who is panting heavily. He raises his head up and places both his palms on Ikki's shoulders. "Promise me you will protect my daughter for me. And please... Bring her back here safe and sound." Eijiro reminds him, hope filling his crimson red eyes.
Ikki slightly gasps at Eijiro's request. He feels very honored to be asked to protect the girl he is secretly in love with. "I will, Uncle Eijiro. Trust me." The male teenager swears to Eijiro, lightly punches his chest as a sign of his oath. The scarlette only nods at him.
Ikki then walks away and hops onto the platform where Kagayakin and Takeru are standing. He quickly sets on the date and place that he wants to go in the past.
“July 25 2018, U.A. High School, Japan.” is written on the screen of the time travel watch. Ikki takes a deep breath to calm his heart down. His eyes land on his parents. He just give them a light nod when suddenly, his body shines with bright blue light.
"Ikki, stay still! We are going to travel through space time now!" Takeru says alertingly. Ikki does as he says and stays still. The light slowly consumes their bodies before they completely disappears.
The pro heroes keep praying for their success. Eijiro clenches his fist in determination. Katsuki notices his best friend's expression and groans in annoyance. "The hell are you worrying about, Kirishima? My brat is not weak, even yours. He will beat the crap out of that damn chick with your kid." He smacks Eijiro's head with powerful force.
"Bakugou..." The red haired-male turns to look at Katsuki. "Yeah... You are right." He eventually smiles even though it is just a small smile.
'Akimi, Ikki. I know you guys will win!' Eijiro keeps telling himself that over and over.
....
Back to the current time,
At U.A.,
Outside the dorm building,
Afternoon...
Midoriya's POV
I kneel down as soon as I reach Shigaraki. I get closer to his chest and clamp my ear close to his chest to check on his heartbeat. I can hear his heart still beating very well.
T-Thank goodness! He is still alived!
A small smile grazes on my freckled feature. I look around my surrounding to search for a good spot to hide myself and Shigaraki from Akuma.
Wait, I forgot that this ground is surrounded by forest... That can be a good hiding spot!
I quickly lift Shigaraki up. Dang, he is heavy despite his skinny look. I wrap his arm around my neck to support his weight since I am going to carry him. As soon as I am all set and neat, I walk quickly yet carefully into the forest, glancing at Akimi for a brief second to check on her condition. She is very skillful in fighting, maybe much better than me.
She must have trained a lot.
Feeling a bit safer since I am deep in the forest, I set Shigaraki down on the grass gently, eyeing him from head to toe. Looks like he does not suffer any fatal injury, he only loses his consciousness. I sigh a breath of relief realizing that he is not hurt.
Now that I knew he is perfectly okay, I should go and lend a hand to Akimi. She can not fight her alone.
Even if there are only two of us to fight the original Akuma, I will do my best to defeat her.
Maybe wearing her out until the pro heroes arrive is the best choice.
I keep muttering to myself to think of a plan to defeat Akuma. Since she has multiple Quirks, it is hard to predict her next move or Quirk she will use. Wearing her out is my only option.
Yosh, it is decided! I will go now!
I nod my head to myself and mush my cheeks to get a hold of myself together. I am about to stand up when I feel a cold sensation and a quite firm grip on my wrist. "What--" Before I can finish my words, the hand that grips me pulls me down roughly, laying my body on the ground. Pain-filled hisses leave my mouth as I slowly part my emerald eyes, only to meet a gaze from a pair of scarlet eyes.
Tomura Shigaraki.
Shigaraki is ontop of me, both his hands are gripping my wrists firmly yet gently. He is silently staring at me without saying a word. "Why...?" His hoarse voice speaks out out of the blue, sending shivers down to my spines.
"Y-Yes?" I reply to his question, trying my hardest not to sound scared. Shigaraki looks straight into my eyes. "Why did you help me just now? You know I'm a villain, right, Izuku Midoriya?" He huskily whispers into my ear which gets me really terrified that I unconsciously shed tears. This remind me of the time we met at the shopping mall. He was really terrifying and intimidating back then that I broke into tears when I met All Might.
Be strong, Izuku. Remember, he is your cousin! Don't be scared of him!
"I-Is it wrong for me to help you...?" I reply to Shigaraki with a question too. "You are weird. You ARE All Might's successor and I'M All For One's successor. What the hell are you doing, helping out your mortal enemy? Or you expect me to thank you and forgot all the things you have done to me in order to destroy my plan?!" He is on the verge of yelling since he gets mad at the last part.
O-Oh gosh, I don't think I'm strong enough to do this... I want to fight back and release myself from him but the thoughts of hurting my own blood-relative put me in dilemma...
Hearing him saying we are enemies hurt me for some reason. I want to save him! I want him to know heroes are not as bad as he thought! But...
I'm scared...
Grandma Nana, I'm sorry... I really want to bring him back to the right path... But I don't know what I should do to help him...
Why fate is so cruel to us? Why did we have to fight each other when we are supposed to be a family? Why, fate?
Please...
Someone please tell me what to do...
“It's alright, Izuku... I have always been here by your side... Don't be afraid of him...”
A gentle voice belongs to a woman suddenly echoes in my mind, causing me to gasp in surprise. Slowly, a calming woman with midnight blue hair who is smiling kindly appears in my mind.
How can this happen?! Is it even possible...? Because she is...
That voice is...
"Grandma Nana?" I unintentionally blurt out, startling Shigaraki. He looks extremely shocked, his glowing red irises widen. I just stare at him long.
She is right, I should not be afraid of him. He is my relative; my cousin; my family.
This encounter we had... Is what fate decided for us...
Our fate is bounded by our blood.
I shouldn't give in to fate, I should face it and work my hardest to overcome the difficulties!
"Oi, Midoriya. How did you know my grandma's name?" Shigaraki suddenly speaks up again after a long pause of silent. My body begins trembling nervousness.
"Shi-Shigaraki, I-I'm your--"
Before I can finish my sentence, a loud boom that make me shivers in fear is heard from the dorm...
Where Akimi and Akuma are fighting.
____________________________
AN- Oof, I should update yesterday but oh well, I fell asleep while writing! XD
This chapter is kinda like a filler only, guess real deal start next chapter where I will use Akimi's POV for mostly along the chapter. So what do you guys think happen to Akimi and Akuma?
1-Akimi loses control of her Quirks due to her pure hatred toward Akuma.
2-Akuma uses a deadly Quirk and hurt Akimi badly like she did to future Izuku Midoriya
3-Akuma is the one who loses control and begins fighting Akimi seriously.
Welp, this is just for fun! UwU
