Returning from last time! ENJOY!
-
She felt frozen 'this couldn't be happening!' she screams internally.
In front of her kneeled a giant with the face of a friend she had thought dead. Part of her was overjoyed, another was terrified. No confusion just yet. The 'why' didn't matter right now.
Uraraka silently hugged Midoriya and held onto him for what felt, to her, like hours. As she embraced him she sobbed with relief. This was most certainly deku… if a 'bit' taller than she last saw him.
After about 15 seconds a voice called over to the two in english. "Allright Zero, that's enough for the family reunion. But we currently have some more important things to deal with."
Uraraka,having sharpened her knowledge of english in the past decade, released Izuku slightly before looking to the snarky voice with a glare that could turn a man to stone. The voice had originated from one of the five green-clad men that were currently guarding the strange ship.
Suddenly, Izuku gently removed her from their hug and stood up from his kneeling position.
Uraraka wanted to cry even more now. She didn't want to let go after just getting her friend back. But she had been able(somehow) to hold back most the tears for now.
Izuku looked around and silently nodded to his fellow spartan to his left. At this, Spartan Pitt stowed his firearm on his back-armor where it clicked in place.
Izuku put his helmet down onto the fragmented asphalt below him, and raised both his hands into a surrendering-like position. The other spartan did so as well.
From behind the two super-soldiers, SGT-MJR. Muller approached them with both of his hands raised as well. As he walked, Izuku told him in a hushed voice, "sarge, we're in Japan sir. Remember the japanese courses we took before heading here sir."
The Sergeant-Major simply replied with a nod and a cocky, "I got this."
The Sergeant stopped just ahead of where the two Spartan III's stood and shouted to the surrounding police force, & Pros.
"Let's not be hasty fellas. We are here in peaceful intention! We are soldiers of the United Nations Space Command armed forces! We are here to return to you an inhabitant of your world after he helped to defend ours, as per his specifications in our deal!" The Sergeant-Major explained; gesturing to Izuku when he said "-inhabitant of your world-".
Izuku elaborated on the SGT's words, "He is correct! I was sent to their world back when the villains attacked here ten years ago!" He yelled.
Then, the second supersoldier shouted, "We understand your caution, believe me we know all too well. We all just got through the largest war in our history, lasting over 30 years, and costing billions of lives! We understand the distrust for anything alien! But please understand this doesn't have to end in needless bloodshed!" Spartan Pitt glared with curiosity at the odd forms of the native humans in this world.
The Sergeant Major finished with, "Exactly! We are here simply to return your inhabitant to you. So please lower your weapons and we can work this out with civility, eh?!"
Seeing that his attempt at diffusial wasn't successful, he lowered his hands to rest behind his back, and turned to his four marines and bellowed, "MARINES! Weapons down and form up on me! HOP TO IT!"
At this, the four marines simultaneously clicked their firearms' to 'SAFE' and formed an exquisite single file line in front of their superior officer.
"Marines! Attention!" The Sergeant ordered; the four subordinates saluting in unison a split-second after.
The sergeant turned back around towards the many native police officers and spoke. "We have left ourselves open to hostility like this as a showing of our good faith! Now, please return the favor will ya!"
The police and pro-heros, albeit reluctantly, relax and relinquish their aim from the spartans, and marines.
Unfortunately, Bakugou interrupted this process by Screaming at them. " WHY THE HELL SHOULD WE BELIEVE YOU! DEKU DIED TEN YEARS AGO BECAUSE OF THAT DAMNED BLACK ORB THING!"
Izuku responded to his childhood friend, shouting. "It's ME Kacchan! I didn't die back then, that orb sent me to these people's world! I made a deal with them that I would help save their version of humanity in exchange for returning me back here once their war was won!"
Katsuki momentarily paused at the mention of his childhood nickname. The nickname given to him by deku… but he re-aligned himself with his previously hostile stance.
"BULLSHIT! EVEN IF DEKU DIDN'T DIE, HE WOULDN'T BE NEARLY AS TALL AS YOU ARE AFTER ALL THIS TIME!" Bakugou pressed further.
Izuku paused for a moment, contemplating if he should tell them about the spartan III program, specifically the risky augmentations he had undergone within said program.
He decided to just sum up the augmentations without getting in-depth much at all. "Part of the deal was that I would undergo several augmentations to fight for these people's world! I promise you Kachan, I AM IZUKU MIDORIYA!" he replied sternly before being defended by Uraraka.
"It IS him Bakugou! I know it's him, Without a doubt! I mean-LOOK AT HIM BAKUGOU! That is certainly deku, and I will stand by him like we all did ten years ago!" She yelled with a fury that was totally unexpected from a woman as unassuming as her.
"Tch… fine. I won't kill you just yet, but I still don't trust you GOT IT!" Katsuki begrudgingly stated as he stood down.
It was about that point when Todoroki approached and stopped about 5 feet from the two super soldiers and single marine. "Well if you're Midoriya, then who the hell are the rest of you?" He said with his signature emotionlessness.
"As I have explained before; we are soldiers of the UNSC Armed forces. Those two spartans fall, or rather fell, under the jurisdiction of the Office of Naval Intelligence. While my men and I fall under the UNSC Marine Corps." Muller recapped in response to Todoroki's inquiry.
"I meant, who are you? Your names please." Todoroki clarified.
"In that case-MARINES! Form up on my right! Shoulder-to-shoulder!" Muller cried, pointing to a section of empty road to his right.
The four subordinates swiftly followed the order from their superior, awaiting the next…
"Allright men, if you would be so kind as to introduce yourselves to our hosts for the evening! LaPinskie, your up!" Muller bellowed before the man on the far end from the sergeant stepped forward.
"Private Jacolby M. LaPinskie of the UNSC Marine Corps! Locked and loaded sir!" he shouted before stepping back in line.
The next soldier stepped up and cried, "Private Malcolm P. Ruttger of the UNSC Marine Corps! Still counting' the hours till we get some of that shore leave sir!" Ruttger yelled, stepping back while the next stepped forward.
"Private Nicholas V. Petrenko, UNSC Marines! Hoping to find a stiff drink nearby, sir!" he spoke with a oddly semi-monotone voice even though he was shouting; something thought to be exclusive to Eraserhead and Shoto until now.
The fourth Marine stepped up after Nicholas stepped back in line, and the fourth marine said, "Corporal Barron B. Broker, of the UNSC Marine Corps! Squad's resident over-thinker."
Barron stepped back into line and Muller stepped forward, saluting and shouting, "And I am Sergeant Major Vincent Muller, the current CO of these Marines! We are here to escort this Spartan back to this world! While gathering intel to take back to ONI in three weeks time!"
Bakugou spoke up at this, "So you green-covered ass-holes are saying that in three weeks a black orb will appear here again?!"
"Affirmative civilian!" Muller replied.
Izuku cut in with, "obviously we will need to repair the pelican-" he pointed back to the ship "- and get it ready for them to return to their universe."
Izuku then turned to uraraka
"I hate to ask this, but we need you to make the pelican float so that we can move it into UA.- OH I forgot about the principle! Is Nezu still around?" Izuku asked.
Uraraka responded with a brightened expression and spoke, " Oh! Yeah, about that; Nezu is no longer the principle of UA. Mr. Aizawa took that position a year and a half ago"
Izuku looked dumbfounded at the new information, "Wait, Eraserhead is the principle?! I would have never seen him as the kind of guy to be given the position. Then again it does make sense considering his tendencies towards making SURE only the best get into the program…" Izuku drifted into his signature mumbling after so many years of repressing it. The return to his world has brought back some of his OLD habits.
'No doubt that's Midoriya!' Uraraka thought as she watched him ramble. But now, she could listen to him ramble forever after losing all trace of him for a decade.
The Marines seemed confused at this amount of words being spewed from Izukus mouth. The reason for this was that they had never heard ANY spartan EVER speak for more than 2-maybe 3- sentences.
Todoroki ended Midoriya's mumbling with a forced clearing of his throat
*AGHEM!*
Izuku noticed this and apologized, "-oh, s-sorry guys just a bit excited after being gone for so long… now about us moving the pelican?"
"OH, right!" Uraraka shouted. She brought her phone out of her pocket and called up Mr. aizawa to arrange the moving and repair of the Pelican. After initially breaking the news of Izuku's return, she explained their situation as far as they had revealed so far.
The large gate onto the UA campus was barely wide enough to fit the slightly mangled, & slightly charred, dropship through. Izuku and the other spartan carried HUGE chunks of metal from the ruined wings behind the pelican itself.
Once the pelican was moved, Todoroki and Bakugou said their farewells for the afternoon as they had to focus on their jobs as pro-heros; they would continue their reunion after the fact.
Iida and Kirishima however, stayed to inquire what exactly had happened while Midoriya was gone. Uraraka explained how she had become a teacher at UA and taken the place of thirteen, and thus she had to finish preparing her materiels for the upcoming school year. She gave Izuku a passionately long hug and reluctantly said goodbye for now.
Kirishima first came up to Izuku and spouted endlessly how 'manly' he looked(in reference to his height and obviously superhuman strength. But when Kirishima connected the strength to his quirk, Izuku stopped him.
"Actually, Kirishima I haven't used my quirk since I arrived back in this world. I am able to carry those debris because of the spartan augmentations."
Kirishima replied with "Oh, well that is even more manly, you could probably fight, and win, against four villains without your quirk! That sound right?"
Izuku scratched the back of his neck and hesitantly responded, "I-I guess, I have only really fought elites and brutes for the past 6 years, I can take on at least two elites without my quirk. And I can take on one brute without it but they are faster to go down in comparison. I have only ever used my quirk when fighting massive hoards and even then I just clear them out quickly and disorrent most of them with that… But as far as when fighting the average human villain… I haven't really thought about that. I can fight 10 quirkless men in hand to hand without a sweat but quirks are too unpredictable when I don't know them."
"Hold it right there bro!" Kirishima interrupted
"You mean to tell me that you can fist fight 10 guys at once, and never use your quirk!" Kirishima finished
"Well, quirkless guys but yes." Izuku corrected
"Holy crap man! That's awesome! Look, I've got to get back to work, I can organize everybody from our homeroom class to meet up tonight if that sound good for you. What do ya say?" Kirishima offered
"I have to check with the Sergeant before-" but he was cut off by Vincent who stood a short distance away with the other marines.
"Spartan! You are no longer under my command! You are back home, that was the mission and here you are! Have fun, and get your old life back! That is my final order to you spartan!" Vincent hollered
"Understood sir!" Izuku affirmed.
"Well looks like I am free to stay, let me get into my civies and get ready- Oh, where will we meet?" Izuku asked
"In the old dorms, they aren't used anymore by the students, so the teachers use them as residency during the school-year." Iida explained.
"Thanks Iida, or is it Ingineum now that you are a pro-hero?" Izuku inquired
"Your welcome; and Yes actually, I took the name after you disappeared, and I began my position in the family hero-agency." Tenya finished
"Great! I can't wait to catch up on what's been happening here over the past decade I've been gone! I am especially excited to see you all again. I've got to finish getting everything in order here, so I will see you guys tonight"
"Got it bro! I'll send out the alert to everybody, they wouldn't miss-out on seeing you again man"
Kirishima replied
"I look forward to how your experiences from the last ten years have improved your skills as a hero Midoriya!" Iida said before leaving with Kirishima.
