Back in the train car, where an employee was desperately trying to get the passengers to calm down and stay put until helped arrived. Mizuki politely informed the employee that she was leaving and then jumped out of the hole and ran while the man yelled after her.
'What is she doing?!' Izuku Midoriya thought in his mind as he jumped off the trains roof and followed after her.
Mizuki's mind went over the similarities between the USJ Nomu and the one she just saw, trying to figure out what it was doing there. Either way, she decided sne needed to be as fast as she could and started up Full Cowl.
Once she used Full Cowl to jump from one building to another, and land just at the edge of the roof.
Izuku meanwhile couldn't help but sweat a bit.
'That thing...was it the same monster that you-'
'Yeah it's somehow similar to the one I sliced completely into bits...guess there's more of it around this area, bit your priority is your sister nothing else matters, right?'
Izuku didn't say anything else not continued to follow after Mizuki.
The slim Nomu from the train was shown breaking down a wall with people running away in fright. Just before it could hurt someone, Gran rocketed over and kicked it back. He thought aloud about when he'd last fought so hard, and how he'd gotten caught up in something crazy like this.
Gran continued fighting, noticing Nomu just attacked whoever was closest, and had to quickly back out of an attack when a bunch of fire engulfed the Nomu. Endeavor had arrived.
Endeavor said that he'd been looking for the Hero killer, but that the Nomu had gotten in the way of things.
The civilian couple that had been saved asked what Endeavor was doing there. He smirked, and said it was obviously because he's a hero.
People were shown fleeing in panic, while Mizuki ran against the flow of people to try and get to the center of the action. She thought about USJ again, and knew that if these Nomu were just as powerful as that one then both Iida and the whole city would be in danger. She urged herelf to think, to figure out what the best course of action would be.
She then changed direction when she heard someone calling for Tenya. She came to halt when a bus fell from above and crushed a car right in front of her, causing an explosion that nearly knocked her off her feet. The Nomus were shown rampaging through the area, and the heroes weren't fairing very well against them so far.
One hero ripped out a water hydrant and told Manual to put out the fire.
Mizuki recognized that name from where Iida was interning and started to run over. Manual worriedly cursed the fact that Iida had chosen now to run off, which stunned the girl as she couldn't fathom why someone as diligent as Iida would run off at a time like this.
A hero ordered Mizuki back and to follow the evacuation instructions.
But she simply apologized for getting in the way, but she didn't leave. Her mind was running a mile a minute, trying to figure out where Iida could have gone. She then thought about the hero killer, and the answer suddenly hit her. With that thought in mind, he turned and ran...and then stopped when she saw something...or rather someone, standing in a sea of flames...she saw him, hee big brother, who simply stared at her with the wind blowing his hair.
She held in a breath as she watches her brother running towards a direction where she follows him ans screaming our his name in an attempt to stop him.
The heroes continued fighting, and got thrown around by the Nomus as more property was destroyed. One hero asked what was going on and what the Nomus were after.
Shigaraki was shown, looking down on the scene from a distance as he gleefully commented on how great the Nomus were. Kurogiri asked if he would participate in the fight, and he used his injury as an excuse not to.
Shigaraki's mind flashed back to the bar, where he asked his Sensei how many Nomus were finished.
Sensei said that, of the ones they were working on, there were six that were fully ready, though they weren't as strong as the one given to him for the USJ attack. Shigaraki asked for them, and Sensei asked why he wanted them. Shigaraki said he didn't like the hero killer, and reminded Sensei that he had promised that Shigaraki could destroy things he didn't like. Sensei agreed to let him have three, and told him to use this as a learning experience. Back in the present, Shigaraki laughed and declared that after this Stain would be forgotten.
We turn our attention after Iida proclaimed who he was to Stain. Stain took it all in, and calmly ordered him to die. Iida attacked in a fury, using his quirk to speed up his kick. Stain was still too fast for him though. As he dodged, Stain said that he'd let Ingenium live so that word of him would spread.
Stain proclaimed that both Iida and his brother were weak because they were both fakes.
Iida growled as the pain wasn't affecting him even though the sword was sticking out of him he told Stain to shut up. He told Stain that he'd made Tensei unable to continue his hero work, despite having used it to save and lead others. Iida flashed back to seeing his brother save others, then to a family dinner where his father was praising his brother's success and the fact that he lead so many sidekicks. Tensei brushed off the praise by saying he was only successful because of how much support he got from them, and he was working hard to support them in return. Tensei said he was doing what he could to live up to the title of hero, and he was glad his work helped so many people.
Iida shouted that he'd never forgive Stain, and that he'd kill him. Stain pointed at Native and told Iida to save him first. He told Iida he should reflect on himself, and save others, not use his power for his own gain. Letting himself get so consumed by hate that he ignored others was the opposite of what a hero should do.
Stain removed the sword, and said that was why Iida would die. He licked some blood off the blade, and something came over Iida and he realized he could no longer move.
Stain went and stab Iida in his legs causing hin to scream out as the blade went deep into his muscles and close his bones in his leg, Srain with no renorse simply took the blade out as blood leaked our of the deep wound and raised his sword above Iida. Tears streamed from Iida's face as he once again thought of his brother. He yelled once more at Stain that he was only the villain who hurt his brother, no matter what he said.
He could see it, his life flashing before his eyes...and then the worried looks he got from friends that if made him feel regret.
Just then, the sound of footsepts was heard that caused Stain to look down the alley. A green blur bounced off the walls and morphed into a full-cowl Mizuki, who punched Stain in the face.
Iida stuttered in surprise as he realized who had just rescued him. Mizuki declared she was there to save Iida.
It quickly flashed back to see Mizuki chasing after her brother but suddenly stopped as she watches how her brother was taking her into the alleys which got her to widen her eyes, 'Is he showing me where Iida is?' She thought as she went back on how she's been looking for Iida, thinking to herself that she might be wrong about why Iida ran off and pondered on how the hero killer and the league might be connected while she used full cowl to bounce her way up to the roof...with a certain green haired following her.
As Mizuki turned a corner, saw something, and zipped down the alley to punch Stain in the face. She said 'Jackpot!' with a smile on her face as Stain was forced back.
Stain recognized Mizuki from Shigaraki's picture. Iida asked what She was doing there, and all Mizuki explained that she'd put together likely locations for Stain to be based on information she'd seen and heard about the hero killer.
Mizuki then asked Iida if he could move, saying it would be best to get to a more open location where they could possibly get the attention of some pro heroes.
Iida told Mizuki that he couldn't move, and that it happened after Stain cut him and likely had something to do with his quirk. Mizuki then also noticed the unconscious pro hero that was also there. She then thought to herself that, if it was just Iida, she could grab him and run away, but she couldn't carry both of them.
Iida interrupted Mizuki's thoughts by telling her not to get involved, that this had nothing to do with her.
Mizuki couldn't help but clenched her teeth at what she just heard that came from her friends mouth.
Stain said that he had a duty to kill Iida, and that if Mizuki got in the way then 'the weaker will be culled'. So what would she do?
Mizuki looked at Stain in fear, realizing how much more dangerous this man was compared to the villains they fought at the USJ. Still she steeled herself to fight.
Mizuki had her phone behind her back and that she'd just sent her location to someone. She thought about how sje should have done whatever was needed to get a pro to come with her.
She told herself that she'd protect Iida and Native while doing her best to stall for time and drive Stain back. Iida tried to get her to leave again but Mizuki gave the boy a glare.
"Iida, if heroes could only interfere in things that involved them then no hero could do anything. It was like All Might said after all: Meddling when you don't need to is the essence of being a hero!" She said with a determined look on her face.
Stain smiled at what Mizuki said and at the fearful determination on her face. Mizuki rushed forward, and Stain realized the girl was trying to get close to combat the fact that Stain had much longer reach. Stain grabbed a dagger to try and cut her, but Mizuki's full cowl let her slide between the hero killer's legs.
Stain swung his sword behind him, but Mizuki was quick enough to jump up above him and aimed a low powered smash down on Stain's back. Iida watched in awe and thought about how the movements reminded him of how Bakugo moved during a fight.
Mizuki wonders if the attack worked and was relieved when she realized full cowl had kept up all the way through that sequence. This relief was cut short when Stain licked his blade, and Mizuki found herself unable to move.
As Mizuki had a tiny cut on her arm, and that made her wonder how such a little graze was enough to paralyze her. Stain simply stood up, and Mizuki was able to see the couple drops on blood on the blade and realized that blood was the trigger.
Stain talked about how Mizuki had handled herself in the fight, and decided that she wasn't just talk like most others were. As he walked toward Iida, he said that it would be worth it to let Mizuki live, because she was different.
He arrived where Iida lay, and raised his sword once again. Mizuki yelled desperately for Stain to stop, but the man didn't listen as he was ready to deliver the final blow on Iida...however something stopped him and with a quick reaction blocked the sudden attack with his blade from the person who used their fist that caused Stain to be pushed back and getting dragged on the ground as he used his blade to stop himself, he glared at the perpetrator and saw that it was a young man, with green and black colored hair with a black hoodie that was opened up with a green undershirt along with a dark blue long pants with his signature shoes with the metal lining.
Mizuki couldn't help but it look up as the person turned their attention to her...and all she could say was...
"Big Brother"
