" Get up Mikaru I always thought that your mantra was 'cool guys don't cry' so what are you not cool now ? "

Fumi said approaching Mikaru and he desperately tried to hold back his tears not wanting the first thing that she remembered from their second reunion was him breaking down into tears again. Then the entire  academy shook and a look of sheer terror appeared on her face momentarily but she shook it off and puffed up her cheeks averted her gaze from Mikaru as she asked.

" Hmph, Woody you don't have anymore time to stop the demon from reclaiming his lost power, I told to hurry but now your only option left is to jump off this building and die. "

Hearing this Mikaru immediately became still and stopped crying because he was completely dumbstruck by how unbelievable her words were so he asked.

" Uh, I didn't quite catch that, could you say it again 'Fumi Akagi' ? "

Which caused her to panic so she explained her reasoning to him.

" It's not what it sounds like, don't get the wrong idea Woody, I wouldn't wanna see you die either but you see Eve handed me this book called the legendary Super Society which talks about him saying that if the demon reclaims his powers and attains physical form then all hope will be lost !!! "

But Kai chimed in saying.

" Well Jason and I just fought a demon and we were able to take him down although the difficulty was admirably high, Fumi your cute but I doubt someone like you know what us preterhumans are capable of especially since it's obvious that you don't go to school here since your not wearing our uniform or a E. N. Band although this is probably my fault since you were only able to enter the building because I ran low on preterhuman energy so my barrier around this place finally vanished. "

Mikaru then began to remember something that had happened when he first started attending the academy...

Ahmya and Fukushima both fell to the floor in the school hallways and Mikaru said reassuring both himself and Fukushima of what he was doing.

" My name is Mikaru Hyroyuki and I'm a complete gentleman a Hyro (hero). "

I'm living up to the promise that I made to my dad before he died 'become a hero that helps people not that I can, not that there's something in it for me but because that's what heroes do' while simultaneously living up to my master Yuuto Sensei's strong sense of right and wrong I guest I'm more like them than I thought after all they are my mentors.

And the silver haired girl then got up clenching her fist with the box and said with a harsh tone.

" Trying to play hero huh vermilion boy well you're wasting our time we all already know that heroes don't truly exist so stop wasting our time. "

And Fukushima hid the desperate look on his face by smiling as he said.

" So you really are a hero huh, this is the second time you saved me I thank you for that but your help is no longer required. If I fail here and now then the whole world might be in danger if the thing in that box is released. "

So Mikaru defended Fumi saying.

" Kai I know that you really don't think much of her especially since she died at the hands of K but her words shouldn't be doubted more so if you think that I'm strong since she's actually stronger than me since she's actually mastered the flow state although she needs to prepare first. "

When Kai heard this 'excuse' he cut to the chase and asked.

" So are you gonna jump off and die then ? "

And Mikaru immediately replied with a smirk on his face.

" No way, I'll keep fighting to the bitter end. "

This caused Fumi to start shaking so she went over to the edge of the roof, jumped onto the fencing mesh that were there Incase someone slipped and fell, and she turned towards them and said leaning back so she would fall.

" So your not gonna restart uh, what a shame. I guess you don't love me after all. "

Then she fell but Mikaru wasn't gonna just stand by and watch  her die a second time so he jumped onto the fencing mesh and leaped after her wrapping his arms around her using his body to sheild her from the fall as he whispered in her ear.

" There's a reason why I ignored you the first time, it's because I love you more than you can imagine Fumi Akagi. Sometimes you take your jokes a bit too far teasing me just because you already know the truth. "

Then he hit the ground and a little explosion was made as some dust flew up in the air then another explosion occurred in the school building throwing a yellow blur outside.

The dust cleared and the Elites appeared fighting against a mysterious person who wore a yellow costume, as that happened Mikaru finally rose to his feet pulling Fumi up aswell and blood dripped from his nose as he asked.

" Are you okay Fumi ? "

She saw it and was amazed so she asked him in response.

" Yeah I'm fine surprisingly I didn't feel a thing when we landed, but are you okay when you grabbed me I didn't expect you to survive the fall ? "

When he heard that he laughed and answered.

" Don't be silly Fumi you know I'm a lot tougher than that, infact I've been doing some training recently and although I didn't exactly completely master chi I did learn something really similar which allows me to manipulate my energy so I used it to absorb all of the shockwaves from the fall into my own body since I was too tired to stop it. "

She then wore a extremely saddened look on her face after hearing that and someone ran by them engaged in battle against the Elites the person wore a yellow costume and they recognized Mikaru and Fumi's voice and asked as he continued to battle the Elites.

" Mikaru, is that you and is that who I think it is !? "

And Mikaru answered realizing who the Elites were fighting but unaware of if they'd end up catching a heart attack if he told him who the female he was talking to was.

" Yeah it's me.... Sensei ? And I'm not sure if you'll believe me or not but I think Fumi has came back from the dead. "

Hence with out any hesitation his Sensei leaped towards him and Fumi in order to verify that report and indeed he did see the face of Fumi but when she saw him she was very much afraid and couldn't say a word.

***

A few hours prior.

Buck yelled at Death Arm's unwavering from his intense rage but Death Arm's asked.

" Uh, worthless hero, why are you calling me that ? "

" Read the bonus 47 of Super Society and you'll figure that out Mr. Useless hero !!! "

Buck said ending their exchange temporarily since Yuuto then proceeded to pull out a book out of nowhere exclaiming.

" Super Society, great timing I have the latest volumes right on me !? Give me a sec I'll give it a read then you can get back to killing me. "

" Wait he has the current volume of Super Society on him !!?? "

Buck and Fukushima exclaimed unable to believe this breaking of the 4th wall thus Yuuto explained.

" Of course I do, how do you think I know where criminals are gonna show up next, I've been collecting this comic since I was a teenager, it's kind of a cheat code you see !!! "

Then he read that bonus at super speed (bonus 47), and when he was finished he pondered.

" Eh really, so that's your story ? Not bad but aren't we around the same age, I would've also been a kid around that time Mr. Buck. "

" Oh yeah that's right !? Sorry about that Mr. Hero. "

Buck responded formally bowing his head apologizing for the rash actions taken to attain peace due to his lingering anger from what had happened in the pass, now that he thought about it if he had put 2 and 2 together it would've been essentially obvious.

But just as this happened another guy appeared at the gate wearing a dark cloak and he approached Fukushima and reached out his hand to Fukushima who then took it believing that it was his father the council man Fuji trying out another one of his mystic cloaks.

Unfortunately though it wasn't his dad and Fukushima was consumed by dark flames which transformed him and two curly horns appeared at the sides of his head joining the two small pointy ones which were on his forehead.

He immediately went mad starting to maniacally laugh and the hero Yuuto who saw instantly recognized the cloaked figure and prepared to stop him, however...

" So we meet again number one hero Peace Sign, Earth's strongest man Death Arms. It's time I show you how much  I've went above human limits and even further beyond since that day. "

Principal Ariana said walking towards him from the school building with all of the Elites with her prepared for battle as Fukushima and the cloaked man who seemed to have brought a dozen of his comrades all started killing every student in sight who we're all 2 stars.

" Don't tell me your after revenge now, are you? "

Yuuto asked knowing that he didn't have anytime to waste with any petty little strength comparison with people he didn't even see as the enemies at the moment, but the principal Ariana didn't seem too keen on listening to reason so she instead prompted the Elites saying.

" Lock him down. "

Then a giant robot appeared behind Yuuto grabbing him before lifting him into the air attempting to squeeze him to death as imaginative Jay could be seen using a game controller to control it's movements saying.

" Hey this is pretty fun. "

However Yuuto didn't seem too fond of wasting any more time so he flexed his muscles breaking the robots fingers in order to make his escape, this wasn't the case though since it seemed to have excited imaginative Jay as he asked.

" Wow this guy is pretty strong I guess it won't be like taking candy from a baby ? "

Instantly the robot's arms reformed into a multi missile launcher and aimed them towards Yuuto firing before he had touched the ground which caused multiple large scaled explosion that Ariana somehow miraculously prevented from reaching the Elites with some sort of ability she possibly possessed.

" Hey, you guys don't need to bother help me kick his ass, he's not as worthless of a hero as I thought. "

Buck announced stepping out from the explosion's dust cloud with a few scratches all over his baller uniform that was a shorts and a gray shirt with blue stripes having the number 10 on it.

His words went ignored by his comrades however causing Buck to realize that they indeed had personal business of their own to take care of so he decided to stand at a distance and watch their battle until further notice.

*Clap*

All of the dust from the explosion cleared revealing an unharmed Yuuto Itsuki standing a top of a rubble of metal and wires that remained of the robotthst had fired the attack, imaginative Jay saw this and smiled beginning to meddle with his E. N. Band in order to unleash his full power to take the battle more seriously.

Running out of patience Yuuto dashed towards him preparing a Fatal Strike full force to finish him off but another of the Elites best teacher Tapei stepped in raising his glasses with his index finger and immediately Yuuto appeared  at the school gate punching which created a huge shockwave that vanished before reaching the Elites.

Annoyed by what the number 1 hero saw as a couple of coweredly tricks Yuuto yelled.

"Why don't you all stop playing around and fight me directly already !!! "

But paying little attention to his words Tapei said to the hero.

" Behind you. "

So Yuuto glanced behind him as his body attempted to jump in the air in order to dodge an incoming shockwave but as soon as he leaped into the air the shockwaves disappeared and he quickly looked into the air only to realize that it was now coming down towards him at plank blank range so he was inevitably hit to the ground as he held his hands above his head in order to try stopping it.

" Impressive I heard your martial arts was inescapable and you were able to dodge attacks even without seeing them but I never would've guessed that you could be hit by your own attack. "

The nurse however objected revealing.

" No I don't think that he was hit by the attack it's more like he realized that it was his own energy bouncing around so he somehow absorbed it back into his body in order to prevent your little game you were playing with him from being prolonged. "

So Tapai raised his glasses once again before he started tampering with his E. N. Band aswell in order to unleash his full powerto take the battle more seriously aswell as Nurse Nina leaped towards Yuuto to engage him in battle aswell.

" Young lady why did you of all persons choose to initiate in close combat with me even though your comrades seem to be avoiding doing so, aren't you afraid you'll get hurt ? "

Yuuto asked her but nevertheless she refused to answer only choosing to attack him using a variety of attacks one after another which were all dodge by him with relative ease before he launched a counter strike using Phoenix Strike full force not showing her any special treatment just because she was a female.

She attempted to block it with her arms but instantly regretted it when both her arms exploded upon contact with his attack and even her chest sunk in from the impact as she coughed up some blood had completely underestimated the man who she full well enough knew was a worthy opponent.

However as soon as she leaped backwards the chunks of her arms flew towards her mending themselves back together before reattaching to her shoulders as good as new and a green light appeared and her chest was repaired and the blood coming from her mouth vanished, thus she also decided on turning off the power dampener on her E. N. Band alas acknowledging him as a worthy opponent aswell.

Meanwhile a few 2 stars were being slaughtered nearby by the demon who had brought a dozen of his friends and had possessed Fukushima's body to add to his crew, the 2 stars started off their battle fairly well until they realized that some of them seemed to be attacking their own classmates as if they were possessed.

And to make matters even worse even though it was apparent that whichever 2 stars had grew horns on their heads were either being possessed, brainwashed or going out of their minds some of them would either slit their  own throats when being attacked by their sane comrades or they'd instantly come back to their sense's before being cut down by sane 2 star themself.

During the hero's battle with the Elites he was paying attention to this all, grieving because they wouldn't let him save them and so he sensed Jason's mother behind him still standing at the gate witnessing this all commence and his pride as a hero was once again crushed as he whispered.

" Why, why do I always end up failing to protect the ones who need me whenever you're involved, didn't you also wanted to be a hero Mikado Hyroyuki ? "
