Chapter Text

Izuku was walking towards UA. He had been training himself for the last ten months of his life all for the moment he would need to enter the school and prove to everyone around him that a Quirkless Hero really is possible. He would even prove that to All Might himself, it had been ten months since Izuku had last seen the Number 1 Hero and he made it his mission that if he walked around his normal routes to get to school as well as the store over that time that he wasn't near the man. He had really crushed his dreams of becoming a Hero that day ten months ago and he really didn't want to talk to the Hero about it, especially now of all times.

He reached into his backpack to get some water as he wanted to be fully ready for the Entrance Exams. Even if he didn't pass the Practical, considering he'd be fighting against robots, he had read about the practical exams on the website talking about UA's Entrance Exams about four years ago when they made it possible for the Quirkless to enter that prestigious school. He was mentally prepared to take the General Education test as well in case he didn't get into the Heroics Course and as he walked through the city on his way to the train station to get to Tokyo an explosion happened to his right. Looking over at the area where a wall was broken apart, he found that there was a civilian laying under some rubble as he rushed over to them before his mind could even process what was happening. Pulling the rubble off the civilian, he found that the man was bleeding from his head as Izuku managed to pull them out.

"Y-Young man, w-what are you doing h-here?" The older man asked. "I'm here to get you out of here!" Izuku said, with a small grin. "Well, keep yourself hidden! There're villains in the building!" The older fellow said, as Izuku hauled the man to the street and called for paramedics and Heroes. "How many villains are inside the building sir?" Izuku asked, as the man coughed. "T-There should b-be around 5 Villains. B-But you should r-really be focused on the one in front o-of you." The older fellow said, as he grunted in pain. "W-What are you talking about? There's nobody in front of me." Izuku said, before the older fellow's face became a sneer. "I always love messing with the righteous ones!" The older fellow said, as he placed all five of his fingers on Izuku's chest.

Izuku had only a few moments to think about what was happening before the effects of a quirk activated. He felt as though all his bones were becoming mush as well as his body shrinking in size before he became a splatter of blood on the ground near the man on the ground. He smirked to himself as he got up from the ground shaking off the remaining dust and debris as he walked back towards the building as he called out to his allies in the building.

"Hey! We got a witness outside that I just took care of! Be careful!" The man said, as the others gave him a smirk and ran up the stairs to begin their purge.
==============================================

Izuku stared off into the distance as he thought about everything in his life building up to that moment in time. He seriously couldn't believe that was how he went out, he died because of the fact that he thought that an older gentleman was hurt, and he was taken advantage of. He slowly began to cry as to how his mother would now become very distraught with the death of her son, not that he really believed that she would be sad. He'd seen how she was very dismissive of him over the years when it came to his classes at school. She knew about how he was bullied every day, and she still did nothing about it. He had even attempted to tell her about it, but she was very drunk at the time and just yelled at him to just leave her alone.

As he stared at the glowing world around himself, he thought about what kind of life he could get. Kacchan got what he wanted from Izuku; he had died in order to make the boy's life much better... he just wished that it didn't come at the cost of thinking he'd saved the life of an elderly man. Shaking his head to get out of the strange thoughts of self-deprecation, Izuku had looked at the glowing light in the distance as he started to walk towards it. He had no idea what that would do for him, considering the fact that his entire body feels weightless and at the same time he was feeling pain all over his body, but that was par for the course for a life he lived. By the time he reached out for the light at the end of the weird empty void, he suddenly felt his entire body begin to break apart as he suddenly disappeared from the void.

----------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Robotnik was sleeping in his bedroom, as it was around midnight at the moment. Evil can't do more evil if they aren't getting enough sleep after all! He was having the greatest dream of his life as he thought about terraforming the entire world of Mobius into a robotic paradise where everything can survive anything that the universe can throw at it. And he had managed to catch that damn rat of a Hedgehog Sonic in one of his many devices that could handle the power of the Chaos Emeralds! He slammed a button in the dream to transform Sonic into a metallic version of himself as he began to laugh hysterically at how he managed to finally defeat the blasted Hedgehog once and for all.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!

"Gyaaaaargh!" Robotnik screamed in fear as he fell from his bed. "What the hell is going on out there!?" He called out, gathering his clothes and putting them on.

Looking at the time on his alarm clock showed that it was only 3 in the morning for him as he grumbled to himself leaving his bedroom. Entering the hall, he found himself staring at a scene that could be comedic for him as he just stared at the scene before him as he saw an unconscious green Mobian sleeping in the middle of one of his traps. Placing a hand over his face and rubbing it down his mustache, he walked over to the tube that held the Mobian as he tapped on the tube itself to see if he could wake them up. Nothing happened each time he tapped on the tube, so pulling it away, he reached out to the Mobian and poked his body. Soliciting a groan of pain and discomfort from the small being, he watched as they slowly sat upright as their ears flopped over their face adorably. That was if he could call the action adorable.

"W-Where a-am I?" The small creature asked, as he took in his surroundings. "Welcome to the new Base of Operations for the Glorious Dr. Robotnik!" Robotnik called out throwing his arms out. "W-Who are you?" Izuku asked, as the man just turned white in color. "Don't tell me that you've never heard of me brat!? I'm the great and in despicable Dr. Ivo Robotnik! Otherwise known as Dr. Eggman by that filthy Hedgehog and his friends!" Dr. Eggman said, as he grumbled scuffling his foot on the tiles. "I've never heard of you sir, d-do you know w-where I am?" The small Mobian asked, confusedly. "Are you sure that you want me to answer that question for you? You are on Mobius within my base of operations. Now are you working with that dreaded Chipmunk Sally Acorn?" Eggman questioned as he glared into the bunny's eyes with his goggle covered eyes. "M-Mobius? W-what are you talking about?! I-I was on Earth before I woke up here. Wait... why do I have fur instead of regular fleshy arms!?" The small Mobian screeched in clear confusion and fear.

Eggman thought about how to answer the boy's question before he had a thought of his own. What was this boy doing in his building, and what could he do to gain their trust? Shaking his head, he just decided that it wasn't worth it to stay awake any further and just grabbed the Mobian by the ears and dragged them through the halls. All the while the small Mobian had just been struggling to get away from his grasp as he pointlessly struggled in his arms the entire time. By the time Eggman had made it to the outside of his base, he tossed the small Mobian out of his base before slamming the door. Not before he left the small creature with a final set of words for the evening.

"If you don't want to be killed by me, just head over to those dreaded Hedgehogs! I don't have time to deal with you at 3 in the morning!" Eggman said, as the small Mobian had rushed away from the place in a hurry.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Izuku ran through the woods near the base of operations that belonged to the weird scientist Eggman. He had no idea why he had this innate fear of the man, but he really didn't want to piss him off further, so he followed the man's directions he was kind of like Kacchan, except he didn't use a quirk. But aside from that, the small bunny boy had rushed through the forest as fast as he could as his ears flopped in front of his face. He was running through every single scenario about what in the world was happening, but he kept drawing into one singular scenario that he'd never thought was possible, he was probably reincarnated into another world to live out the rest of his days there.

By the time he had run out of stamina to continue running through the forest, he stopped to hide in a tree. It was in the middle of the night, so he wanted to get as much sleep as possible in order to have enough energy to continue exploring what this world has to offer. If he was in another world, he was definitely going to see if certain things were helpful or not... and he was going to head to this Hedgehog and his friends to see what they were all about. Falling asleep on the branch, he was currently unaware of the set of eyes that glared at him through the bush of leaves at the bottom of the tree as he cuddled himself against the trunk of it.

By the time it was early morning, Izuku woke up with a start as he looked around his area before noticing a weird animal staring at him on the tree branch. They were like a snake but for some reason they were opening their mouth towards him before he immediately entered fight or flight mode. Which for him, was the latter. Running down the tree, Izuku immediately took off in a dead sprint to get away from the area of that animal that attempted to have him for breakfast. As he continued to run through the forest, he wasn't paying attention to where he was rushing off to as he finally reached the outside of it before he quite literally jumped off the ledge.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Izuku screamed as he fell into the watery river at the bottom of the cliff.

And before he could even attempt to escape from the water, he was taken down stream. Screaming the entire way as he struggled to swim in the roaring rapids as they tugged him down even further down the river as he struggled to keep himself above the water's surface. About a minutes later, his head hit a rock causing him to go unconscious from the harsh smack and the river carried him down the stream. A few hours later Izuku found himself on the bank of the river as he slowly got himself up from where he was laying on the ground. Shaking the water from his body, he looked at his form in the river's reflective surface and made multiple observations.

Firstly, was the fact that he looked like one of those plushy bunnies that were stuffed animals. Secondly, he had weirdly oversized ears on top of his head, and the final thing he'd observed was the fact that since he was now a bunny, his eyes were definitely larger than normal. He decided to check under his pants to see what he looked like since he wasn't exactly human anymore and was very disturbed by how he looked. And with a blushing face, he pulled his face away from his crotch as he shook his head thinking about what to do in this world. Since he couldn't find a feasible way back to his old world, he thought about just staying within this world... it couldn't be that hard to live here in the wilderness.... right?

"For the last time Amy, I can't take you out on a date today! I've got a big project with the Tornado that needs my full attention!" A very young voice called out. "Tails, god damn it! I want you attention, and I want it now!" A feminine voice called out, as Izuku hid in the brush nearby. 'Who are they? I hope they are nicer than they sound.' Izuku thought to himself as he watched the two enter near the river. "Amy I will spend time with you later. I need to see what the scanner stated about something appearing near the riverfront. Thats weird, it said that a lifeform was nearby. I wonder if it's broken." The fox said, as he swished his tails behind himself. "Tails, you sure that there was something here?" A pink Hedgehog asked, as she stared at the fox. "The scanner is never wrong! Let me give it another shot!" The fox, Tails said, as he pulled out the device.

As he turned the machine on, Izuku felt his heart rate increase dramatically as he hid within the brush as he curled in on himself as much as he could. And that was when he heard movement near him as he opened an eye to see two pairs of eyes staring at him in shock and confusion as he stared at them whilst he hyperventilated at how they stared at him blocking the sun.

"See Amy! I told you that my scanner cannot be broken!" Tails said, as he jumped into the air. "Hey are you alright? You seem to be having a slight panic attack." Amy asked, as she ignored Tails. "Y-Y-Yeah! I-I-I'm fine, b-but wh-where am I?" Izuku asked, as he stared at the two fearfully. "Don't worry little guy! Big sister Amy is here to help you find your way around here!" Amy said, picking Izuku up from his seated position. "Y-You don't s-seem that m-much older than me." Izuku muttered. "Hm? How old are you anyway?" She asked, as Izuku shuffled his feet. "I-I am 14." Izuku said, looking away. "Really?! I'm 15 but that is just surprising!" Amy said, as she looked to Tails. "I'm 14 as well! Nice to meet you..." Tails said, holding a hand out. "M-Midoriya I-Izuku." Izuku said, shyly taking the hand. "Nice to meet you Izuku! Names Miles "Tails" Prower! But you can just call me Tails!" Tails said, with a smile. "Y-You're named after miles per hour?" Izuku asked, confused. "Yep! Anyway, this here is Amy Rose, she's, my girlfriend!" Tails said, happily. "A girlfriend that you're not spending time with!" Amy said, as she smacked Tails on the head.

Izuku watched the two converse with one another as they led him towards where a small city was located. As they talked to one another, Izuku found himself falling into the conversation without much help as he listened to everything, they all spoke about and taking it to heart immediately. And soon enough they stood over a very large city that looked highly advanced in terms of overall technology alone. And that is when someone new arrived as he had overheard the trio walking towards the cliff overwatching the city.

"That is Central City! It's a place that gets attacked by poachers as well as Eggman from time to time, but you should know that it's safer out here in the woods. Name's Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog!" The blue hedgehog said, happily.

Izuku stared at the blue Hedgehog for a moment before taking in everything that happened in his early morning. And promptly fainted on the ground.

Izuku woke up a few minutes later as he shook his head. He was feeling something underneath his head as he felt something very soft, turning his head slowly expecting to be a female giving him the famed Lap Pillow that his perverted classmates at Aldera had spoken in secret about. Only to find that he'd been sleeping on a small couch that had just been able to keep his small frame on it because of how short he was. He had no idea as to why he thought someone was giving him a lap pillow, but he didn't care at this point in time. Feeling around his head, he found his bunny ears still on top of his head as he let out a sigh. Everyone always had compared his meek personality to that of a bunny, and now that he felt the trademark ears on his head he pouted.

"W-Well at least my c-classmates were right about my p-personality. C-Can I at least use my ears as a weapon though?" Izuku muttered to himself. "But if I-I were to u-use them as a w-weapon, wouldn't t-that be as-assault?" Izuku muttered. "I-I know th-that I'm not that... well..." Izuku continued to mutter to himself.

As the young bunny had been muttering to himself, he was completely unaware of the fact that someone was overhearing his little mutter session. They looked around the corner and smirked to themselves before walking out from behind the wall they were standing behind. They sat next to the bunny as he kept muttering to himself, pulling a small notebook out of his backpack, and from what the newcomer could see... it was burned and destroyed by water damage. They cringed as they watched the bunny prepare to write in the ruined notebook before he sighed and turned to look around the place only for green eyes met blue as they finally took notice of the other.

"S-Sorry! I-I didn't m-mean to dis-disturb you!" Izuku said, as he bowed whilst sitting. "Don't worry about it little guy. Now can you inform me as to what you're here for? Sonic wouldn't stop talking about you, especially about how comically large your ears were." The chipmunk questioned. "U-Um, m-my name is Izuku. Midoriya Iz-Izuku." Izuku said, as the chipmunk nodded. "Well Izuku, welcome to the Resistance Base within the Central City National Forest! I'm Sally Acorn, princess of the Acorn bloodline within the Acorn Kingdom." Sally said, rubbing Izuku's furry head. "N-Nice to m-meet you... Mrs. Acorn." Izuku said, as Sally chuckled. "Don't worry about using my last name, I threw that away as soon as I became the Leader of the Freedom Fighters." Sally said, as Izuku looked concerned. "W-Why?" Izuku asked, as Sally chuckled even more. "I joined them because Dr. Eggman wouldn't stop attacking everyone in Mobius. I plan on reclaiming my title as the Princess as soon as Eggman is either in prison or killed. I don't really care about what happens to him." Sally said, as Izuku nodded.

As Sally continued to tell Izuku about his job as a new member of the Freedom Fighters, Izuku was looking confused as to why he was being chosen to be a part of her freedom fighters. She then asked him later on about if he wanted to really see if he could weaponize his ears as well as other body parts, Izuku blushed when she finished that sentence earlier, but he nodded the same at her as she showed him around the Freedom Fighter base. As he looked at all the people fighting for the freedom of all Mobian's as well as the takedown of Dr. Eggman, he took in a deep breath as she brought him to the fighting arena as she called it. She pulled over a large dummy of Dr. Eggman as she gave him the go ahead to use his ears against it. He tensed his ears for a moment as he felt them harden slightly in preparation as he swung his head around and slammed them into the dummy of Dr. Eggman, only for him to hold his ears in his hands as he let out a small yelp of pain.

"Well it appears as though you can't use the ears as a weapon. I don't know why they are so large though." Sally said, writing down her observations in a small notebook. "W-Well I've never u-used a limb like my e-ears like this before. S-So I w-wouldn't know how to u-utilize them p-properly." Izuku replied as Sally stared at him. "Did you ever learn how to fight from someone?" She questioned as Izuku shook his head. "I-I don't belong in this w-world. All I know is the fact that I appeared here." Izuku said, as Sally nodded. "Where did you come from then? If you don't mind me asking?" Sally asked, as Izuku spoke up. "I-I came from a w-world where s-superpowers like S-Sonic's Sp-Speed were commonplace. I-I wasn't born w-with a superpower of m-my own." Izuku said, looking away sadly. "Not everyone was made for being a Hero. But what are your other skills?" Sally questioned. "I-I don't k-know." Izuku said, as he rubbed the back of his head. "Alright, what are your hobbies?" She asked, as Izuku smiled sadly. "I-I wrote down a-about the q-quirks of my p-peers. T-The same for H-Heroes and some V-Villains." Izuku said, as Sally immediately took notice of how less he stuttered on that subject. "How would you take notes on them?" She asked, as she was hoping he'd say a notebook. "I-I would write down their quirks down in my Hero Analysis Notebook. I-I would try and write down all m-my theories about their q-quirks or see which fighting s-style works best for them. B-But everyone just t-told me that I was m-more of a stalker wi-with my notes." Izuku said, looking away from Sally. "I think I know what kind of personnel you can be for the Freedom Fighters." Sally said, smirking. "W-What?" Izuku asked, as Sally smirked even more. "You can be someone who observes the fighting styles of our opponents! If you can figure out how they fight, then your notes on how they fight can be a boon for our cause to stop Eggman once and for all!" Sally said, as she pulled Izuku over to some computers.
=========================================================

For the remainder of the evening, Izuku was shown multiple videos about Sonic and his friends fighting the Robotnik robots. Not to mention the fact that Izuku was shown how the robots specifically fought, and Izuku wrote everything down in a new notebook that was given to him by Sally. She knew that he was sad when he saw his previous notebook and gave him a new one so that he could transfer all his notes from the old one into the new one. But also, another one for specifically writing about the enemies they come across, so that the next time they come across such a foe that they can take them down with a strategy.

For the rest of the night, Izuku was in the computer room as he looked at the multiple videos of Sonic and his friends fighting Robotnik and his Badniks. He was very surprised with how simple they fought, as though they were given very predictable fighting styles as if they weren't made to take on Sonic and his friends. He also noticed how each and every time that Sonic and co had taken down a specific Badnik, a small bird creature would fly outside of it. And as he looked through multiple more video's he found that they were the same for different species of robots that Robotnik had sent out to Sonic and his crew to take on. But the fights he had been shown about Robotnik and Sonic specifically, he was... greatly underwhelmed by how the fights take place and end.

To be honest he doesn't know why Sonic doesn't even catch the man if he has the speed to catch up to the man in his speeder vehicle without any effort. From his speed feats alone, Izuku knew that Sonic could easily end the fight between him and Eggman quite easily, but for some reason he holds back enough to allow Eggman to get a few good hits in that could become fatal if he gets hit harder than what Eggman throws at him. Eventually Sonic will become so arrogant in battle that he'd get taken advantage of during a moment of his guard being lowered, and Eggman could quite easily kill him without even knowing it.

"I-Is the Freedom Fighters... incompetent? I-I am being shown multiple videos of Sonic's fight with Eggman at the end of each zone. And each time he lets Eggman go for some reason, w-what is going on?" Izuku muttered to himself. "What are you doing in here still!? I thought you were in bed?!" A familiar voice called out behind him. "Huh?" Izuku asked, turning around to see Sally behind him. "Um... Sally?" Izuku asked, as Sally herself looked into his eyes. "What is it? You should be going to bed to get some sleep." Sally said, as Izuku cleared his throat. "W-Why does Sonic let Eggman get away multiple t-times?" Izuku asked. "What are you talking about?" Sally questioned. "W-Well looking at the f-footage alone... S-Sonic is allowing E-Eggman to escape." Izuku informed as Sally looked at multiple zones. "A-Are you sure that S-Sonic is al-allowing him to get away?" Sally questioned. "Y-Yeah, Sonic has s-shown feats of speed that s-should allow him to c-catch and bring E-Eggman to j-justice multiple times. H-How fast can S-Sonic go exactly?" Izuku asked, as Sally looked at him and the footage. "H-He can go faster than the speed of Sound as well as Light itself. From one of our adventures, he has managed to run so fast he traveled through time." Sally said, as Izuku gulped. "W-Well if he can move that fast... why is h-he allowing E-Eggman to escape each t-time?" Izuku asked. "You pulled the words out of my mouth, get some sleep kid. We will need your brain later on. I need to have a word or two with Sonic." Sally said, her little tuft of hair covering her eyes.

Walking around the Freedom Fighter's base of operations Izuku looked around for a door with his name on it. But that proved to be something very difficult, as he had no idea where the small rooms where the Freedom Fighters had their spare bedrooms. Shaking his head, he had walked towards a small hole on the ground that had a small sign hanging just above the small hole with his name on it. They were really taking his bunny name to heart huh? Moving into the small underground hut, he looked around the area and found that it was actually very comfortable looking on its own. He found the bed nearby as he laid down on it as he thought about his night and for the moment, he wouldn't mind Sonic getting in trouble with Sally for his actions of not taking Eggman in when he has the chance. If he really wanted to make sure that Eggman didn't get away with whatever he did to the entirety of Mobius... he really should try and take him in.

Off in the distance, a weird black smokey ghost/mist had shown itself around the small base of operations of the Freedom Fighters. It smiled evilly as it took in the view of his target to take over, licking his lips he let out a raspy laugh that was followed by him slowly disappearing into the sky, his red eyes glowing in the dark sunrise of the morning.

Chapter Text

Whilst Izuku was hiding in his little den, Sonic had arrived after fending off an attack from Eggman. He was looking particularly happy as he walked through the base of operations for the Freedom Fighters, the place was a small safe haven for him to relax for a bit. What he had not been prepared for, was a very irate Sally rushing towards him with murder on her mind as she stopped in front of him before taking in a deep breath. She glared at him for a moment as Sonic attempted to read what kind of situation he was entering and thought she was angry for not getting her something to eat for her cravings. As he opened his mouth to speak, Sally had just thrown a small notebook into his face causing him to grab it from mid-air giving her an expression of pure calm and collectiveness.

"Any reason why my girlfriend is wanting to throw something at me unprovoked?" Sonic questioned. "UNPROVOKED!? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA AS TO WHAT I HAD JUST DOUND OUT THIS MORNING!?" Sally screamed at him gaining attention. "What is it? I don't know what you're talking about unless you tell me!" Sonic retorted. "THE FACT THAT YOU NEARLY LET EGGMAN ESCAPE FROM EVERY ENCOUNTER THE TWO OF YOU HAVE! THAT'S WHAT!" Sally screamed at him. "What are you talking about? I'm never letting him go!" Sonic said, as he glared at Sally. "Read those notes then Sonic! Those are from that new rabbit that joined our group! I asked him what his skills were and was told by him specifically that he was very keen on observation. And what do you know, every time you fight Eggman there are exact moments in time where you can take him down once and for all!" Sally said, as Sonic looked down at the notebook.

He opened it slowly thinking that something was going to leap out and attack him. And as he saw the language written, he saw that the writing could be improved upon from how whoever wrote this rambled on in the notes itself, but they were very good if they were able to keep him in his line of sight through electronics. But by the time it reached the moments at each zone where he fights Eggman, he paid extra attention to those fights as it portrayed him as merely having fun in the fight instead of being completely serious. Even he had to admit that whilst these notes aren't wrong about him having fun in his fights with Eggman... they were very eye opening for him as they mentioned multiple times he could've attacked when he instead dodged. Scratching the back of his head, he merely closed the notebook having seen everything he needed to and gave the notebook back to Sally who just glared at him even harder.

"What do you want me to say? Can't I at least have fun messing with Eggman whenever we meet?" Sonic asked as Sally looked like she was about to burst a blood vessel. "Your job is to make sure that Eggman can't attack us anymore, and what are you doing currently?" Sally asked, angrily. "I'm relaxing, you are aware that those robots of his aren't very featherlight in their general makeup. They are metal that I am slamming my body into each and every time I fight Eggman himself as well as when he uses his giant mechas." Sonic said, as he looked around. "What are your plans for when you meet Eggman next? Are you going to let him get away again or are you finally going to nab him before taking him to prison?" Sally questioned. "Geez you make it sound as though I'm the bad guy for not being able to catch him." Sonic said, cleaning out one of his ears. "THAT'S BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE EXTREMELY EASY FOR YOU TO GRAB HIM! YOU ARE THE FASTEST THING ALIVE! YOU COULD EASILY ENTER HIS BASE WITHOUT HIM KNOWING ABOUT IT AND JUST PULL HIM OUT WITH HIM BEING NONE THE WISER!" Sally yelled. "Who was the person who wrote this?" Sonic asked, pointing to the notebook. "What? Are you going to get angry with whoever wrote it?" Sally questioned, her anger slowly ebbing away. "No, I'm going to congratulate them for managing to figure out many ways for me to end a fight between me and Eggman. I may be the fastest thing alive Sally, but that doesn't mean that I'm the smartest." Sonic said, as he walked away.

Whilst Sonic walked away, the ghost form hiding in a nearby tree flew towards Sonic at blinding speeds. And before the Hedgehog could even react to what was happening, the ghostly form had taken control of his body continuing his walk away from the area to begin his own nefarious plans for this world of Mobius.
=============================================

Izuku was sleeping for a few hours. He was having a dream where he wasn't in the world of anthropomorphic animals who could move faster than the speed of light and sound, who had two tails to fly, had strong knuckles that allowed them to both climb and quills that allowed small forms of flight. Don't even get him started on how loud Sally could be when she was furious about whatever happened outside the little den, he'd been given for himself. And as the hours continued further, Izuku came out of the den at around midnight as he stretched his body before looking around the place.

Everything was covered to the brim with blood and guts everywhere. Something fell on top of his head as he looked around and felt his furred head. Pulling his hand back, he found that the comically large glove on his hand was covered in blood as he looked around the area. Once he gained the thought process to look up, he found multiple bodies lying across the trees and he found that Sally wasn't amongst them at all. Shaking his head in slight fear as to what could've done this, he initially thought of Eggman, but then another thought had come up to him all on its own.

'What if Sonic got angry at Sally and decided to really snap against her?'

Shaking his head he knew that Sonic wouldn't kill one of his own like this. Much less in such a very gruesome and harsh way, he moved through the trees and forestry as he looked at each and every dead corpse on the ground. He eventually came across what some of the others within the Freedom Fighters, on his first day by the way, called Flickies. They were small bird-like creatures that the Freedom Fighters stated that they'd protect with their very lives, and those little creatures were lying on the ground dead as well. He felt tears falling from his eyes as he looked at each and every dead body on the ground before moving to head back into his den, his face filled with complete fear as he sat down on the ground.

For the next few minutes, Izuku sat there feeling all the death and fear that had filled the area above ground. He felt a small shiver down his spine as he thought something was watching his home from afar before leaving the area as a whole as if to report something. It was here that Izuku felt as though he'd need to leave his home and make sure that he makes a new base of operations to protect himself from whatever threat had just found him. Grabbing a backpack, he filed it with clothing and food plus water. Once that was done, he put on some shoes and climbed out of his little hut and rushed off into the brush. It was a good thing that he did, because as soon as he disappeared from the den, something fell from the sky and destroyed it entirely. He held his breath as he looked at Sonic as he held a very different vibe from when he first met the Hedgehog. This version of Sonic was very clearly not the Sonic that he'd met earlier that morning, and he could easily tell this from how this Sonic had very red, crimson-colored eyes and yellow teeth. Sonic had blue-green eyes and white teeth... and he definitely didn't have sharp teeth except for his canines.

"It looks like he got away. Damn! I should've just attacked when I had the chance earlier. Lord X will not be happy." A distorted voice of Sonic said, albeit a little raspy. "No matter, I will find him later. I have a few more souls to collect before I can even reach Mountain Peak." He said, before rushing away.

Once the evil Sonic had left the area, Izuku came out of his hiding spot as he rushed off into the dark night of the forest. As he ran, he couldn't help but think that he was extremely lucky as to how he had that feeling of being watched before his home was crushed into nothing. Call it a danger-sense from his new body, but Izuku liked to make it feel as though it was his experience from knowing that he was being followed back in his original world. Shaking his head once again, he needed to keep his eyes on the only thing he should be knowledgeable about. Getting away with his life and survive long enough for Sally and the other Freedom Fighters, if they are still alive. He continued to rush through the forest as he stepped on small twigs before he fell into a small pit. He noticed that it wasn't just any kind of pit, it had spikes at the bottom as Izuku just flailed around thinking that he was about to die for the second time. But he felt as though he stopped falling at some point, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he found that he was just barely floating above the spikes. Letting out a small sigh of relief he tried to fly higher than he was and he felt himself float higher. Once he got up to high ground, he felt something fall on top of his head and felt that his ears had suddenly grown in size acting as if they were propellors.

"I-I guess I found a way to use my giant ears." Izuku muttered before taking off. "I need to find everyone, but I don't know about what this world has or what zones there are. I just hope that I find a place that looks slightly familiar." Izuku said to himself.

Moving forwards through the forest, Izuku came across a giant golden ring as it was just sitting there. He walked up to it as he saw that there was a giant island in the sky on the other side of it, so not thinking straight, he stepped foot inside of the golden ring as he was suddenly taken inside of it.

"NOOOOO!" A voice from the forest called out. Revealing the Sonic lookalike who was angrily looking where the Golden Ring had once been. "Damn it! I was so close to ambushing him! Lord X will not be happy that I let another of the Freedom Fighters escape." He muttered. "XENOPHANES!" A very loud voice called out. "Shit!?" The Sonic look-alike said, before rushing towards a nearby red giant ring.
===========================================

Izuku appeared on an island that was high in the sky. He looked over the edge of it and saw that he was thousands of feet in the air and gulped nervously as he walked through the destroyed island of the sky. He saw the place was still on fire as he walked through it, and as he cautiously walked through the flaming forestry, he found that there was something nearby on the ground and walked over to it. Picking up the item from the ground he found that it was a small arm blaster rifle, and he thought to himself of something he'd heard back when he was at the Freedom Fighter campsite.

"This was Tails' weapon; how did it get lost here?" Izuku muttered as he put it on his arm. "Well I guess I can just return it to him once I get away from this place, whoever destroyed it must not be nearby right now. But if they could find me in my little den, they could most definitely find me here." Izuku muttered again before rushing away. "So this is the bunny you lost track of. He appears to be disappointing to me. No matter, I will take care of it. Xenophanes, just head back to the underworld. I will take care of that little rabbit." The voice said, as Xenophanes gave a gruff grunt.

As Izuku rushed through the flaming island, he found himself coming close to an area where he could see a giant emerald on a pyramid structure. He ran over to it as he saw how large it was compared to him, he felt something calling to him to place a hand over it and softly placed a palm on it. As soon as he felt how course and soft it was at the same time, a pulse of power entered through his entire body as he noticed that he was being watched by something in the trees. Turning around to see who was glaring at him as he stood in front of the Emerald, a red Echidna had walked over to him with a very angered expression on his face.

"What in the hell are you doing to the Master Emerald!?" The red Echidna called out. "I-I feel as though it talked to me!" Izuku said, as the red Echidna just stared at him for a moment. "Well that's good, now you need to get away from here!" The Echidna said, as Izuku tilted his head. "Why? Do you know what's going on?" Izuku asked, as the echidna just shook his head. "No, all I know is that Sonic is being possessed by something that we don't know. Head to this based on Mountain Peak, I will head there after collecting the Master Emerald and placing it's shards in a small bag." The echidna said, as Izuku prepared to leave. "Wait! What's your name!" Izuku asked, as the echidna threw a small ring that became a large one. "The name is Knuckles, Knuckles the Echidna. Now leave!" He said, as he shoved Izuku through the portal. "Do you really think that Mountain Peak will remain out of my range for long? Knuckles?" A voice called out behind the Echidna. "Me, Tails and Eggman have defeated you before X. You will not be taking control of the Master Emerald!" Knuckles called out entering a combat stance. "So be it. But just know, I will not be allowing you to escape this time!" X said, as he rushed at Knuckles.

Chapter Text

Appearing on the other side of the Golden Ring, Izuku landed on the ground with a grunt. He looked at his new surroundings as he got adjusted to the level of near brightness the place seemed to be enthralled with. Looking at the surrounding area, he found that there was a small, abandoned town not too far away and made his way over there, knowing that if he went that way someone might be there to give him directions. Running down the path, Izuku didn't want to let Knuckles decision to hold of that creature, X if he heard correctly, off until he arrived at Mountain Peak's Base of operations.

He made it there within a couple of hours as he walked through the empty streets of the town. It looked entirely abandoned before he decided to take refuge inside of one of the buildings in order to get some sleep. If he could sleep some before heading out in the morning, he might have a chance of making it to this Mountain Peak by evening the next day. Sitting down on a couch he looked at the pictures that belonged to one of the families that lived in this specific house. It was a tall rabbit with large ears similar to his own, but there were two females in the picture that he could surmise. The tall one was definitely the mother, based on the height difference between the two, especially the loving looks the mother was currently giving the child in the picture. From what he could see of the child however, she looked like a complete clone of the mother except for the short stature as well as clear indication that she was only around 10 years of age.

"I miss you mom. I just hope that I can return back home and think none of this ever happened." Izuku muttered to himself.

Falling asleep on the couch for the evening, Izuku had nightmares of being caught by the Sonic Faker. Waking up in the middle of the night due to a nightmare, Izuku went to get something to drink from his backpack before he felt a presence looking down on him from above. Looking up cautiously, he found a woman just lying on the ceiling with blood falling from their mouth and body as a very large X was placed over her chest her naked form for him to see. Izuku felt like he was going to throw up, and as he moved towards the bathroom, he heard the sound of screaming coming from down the street.

Climbing out the window with his backpack on his back, he rushed to where the sound had come from. Down on the street he found an anthropomorphic bat sitting on her ass as she stared at the threat in front of her, the Sonic Faker had arrived there and was thinking about killing her. And without even thinking about what could happen to himself, Izuku thrusted himself at the monster as he jumped into the air and flapped his ears above the Sonic Faker. Dropping down on him from above, he heard the words of the fake Sonic as he spoke to the woman who was extremely injured.

"With your death, I will be capable of entering Mountain Peak! And soon enough I will manage to kill every single person in Mobius, once that happens there will be nothing that can stop me! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The Sonic Faker said, his laugh very... disturbing. "Not if I have anything to say about it!" Izuku screamed out causing the Sonic Faker to turn immediately to him in shock. "WHAT!?" He called out before a pair of green and pink ears slammed into his gut sending him flying into the distance. "Four!" Izuku called out, before shaking his head. "We should probably get out of here before he comes back!" Izuku said, picking the batgirl up. "Just head down this pathway, it leads straight to Mountain Peak!" She said, as Izuku followed the path.
=============================================

Running down the path, the two finally arrived in the outskirts of Mountain Peak. And once crossing over the border, they managed to finally escape the monster that used to be Sonic the Hedgehog. The batgirl rushed off into the distance without thanking him for saving her life, and Izuku made sure to slowly move through the night as he thought about the nightmare he'd gotten before he heard the girl scream. He continued to stew on his thoughts before he heard the sound of feet rushing towards him and his position and when he looked up, he found Sally staring at him in wonder.

"Y-You survived!? H-How! How did he not find you!?" Sally asked. "I-I don't know Sally, but all I know was that when I woke up everything was covered in blood and guts. Not to mention that I had no idea where you all were. So I just went in a singular direction hoping to find you guys." Izuku said, as Sally let out a breath of fresh air. "Yeah, you did a good job actually sleeping for once. Because as soon as you fell asleep, I had a talk with Sonic. It appeared as though he was impressed with your work, but as soon as he left our conversation... he came back with red eyes and yellowed sharp teeth. His claws were sharper than they usually were, but we'd dealt with this kind of situation before. All we need to do is make sure that we can bring the Master Emerald here and finish him off once and for all. He escaped us the last time." Sally said muttering the last part. "Who is this demonic being?" Izuku asked, as Amy walked up. "Hey new kid! Well to answer your question about who that Faker was, his name is Lord X. He came from the void of our universe, and he has only one goal in mind. To kill everyone on Mobius, we were capable of expelling him from Sonic's body the first time... but this time is different. He'd taken complete control of Sonic, from how Sonic isn't fighting back against him. It's as though he wants to have vengeance on everyone in Mobius." Amy said, as Izuku thought about it. "I-I think I'm at fault for this." Izuku said, as Amy looked to him.

Over the next few minutes Izuku explains what his reasons for being the cause of Sonic actually wanting to kill everyone. And for them to hear this, it's not very farfetched as Izuku was the first and only person to ever tell him that if he really wanted to stop Eggman himself, he could've done it ages ago. Hell Sonic had the power to kill Eggman in his sleep without him even being none the wiser, the only reason he apparently kept Eggman around was because he felt as though the man could redeem himself in some kind of way. And to hear that you are essentially causing the deaths of everyone around yourself from an outsider? Well why not just allow the being who took control of you last time around keep control and let your inner hatred of everything out?

As everyone listened in on Izuku's description of how Sonic would probably react to him being the reason he was possessed, Tails was the one to be on his side.

"I don't know why you are beating yourself up like this. The only time Sonic was even capable of fighting back against Lord X was because me, Knuckles and Robotnik were leaving for this place the first time. So the fact that he'd willingly allow himself to be possessed is not a very smart thing that Sonic would do. If anything, he would fight many times harder to prevent such a mind as your own from being taken by him!" Tails exclaimed. "R-Really? N-Nobody but Sally's ever said that about me before." Izuku said, as Amy and Sally with Tails looked at him in alarm. "Well then that means that you are joining our misfit group!" Tails said happily.

They were about to continue their little conversation when two Giant Golden Rings appeared on Mountain Peak. And jumping though the two of them were Knuckles and Dr. Eggman as the doctor was looking worse for wear. He had been holding onto his stomach as he thought about what to do, the last time he'd fought Lord X was when everyone around the entirety of Mobius was killed off instantly. They could only hold him off before leaving the area to come back later and trap him with the Master Emerald, he'd be expecting them to do the same thing again this time.

"Can someone tell me how the bloody hell Sonic got possessed by Lord X again!?" Eggman screamed out like a petulant child.

Chapter Text

"Can someone tell me how the bloody hell Sonic got possessed by Lord X again!?" Eggman called out angrily. "Eggman the l-last thing we need right n-now is everyone throwing a f-fit." Izuku said, as Eggman stared at him. "I've never seen a green rabbit Mobian a day in my life. What are you doing here? Clearly you do not belong here." Eggman growled. "I came here through events I am not even aware of. B-But all I know is that I need to a-assist with this t-threat all I can." Izuku said, as Eggman looked at him closer. "You don't have one of those Heroic Complexes, do you? I swear every one of you Mobian's wish to become a Hero." Eggman grumbled as he walked away. "How did you manage to get Eggman of all people to just leave a conversation like that? If we knew how to do that we'd win our battles all the time." Sally questioned as Izuku looked a bit embarrassed. "W-Well all I r-really did was just tell h-him the truth. Th-That's all." Izuku replied as Sally sighed.

Over the next few days, the entirety of the Freedom Fighters came up with strategies for taking on Lord X. After learning about the man and his past with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Eggman. Izuku learnt that Lord X had fought Knuckles, Tails and Eggman before and had somehow lost with all his powers that he held over Sonic within the hedgehog's body of course, which caused Izuku to literally look at them all with exasperation. How was Sonic clearly capable of taking on Eggman all by himself, but at the same time incapable of taking him down all on his lonesome? Much less with the assistance of Tails, Knuckles and the Freedom Fighters as a whole? Getting his head out of that rabbit hole (No pun intended) of muttering spells, Izuku helped out with plans on how to get the Mobian Devil out for them to use their plan. Based on what Tails and Knuckles spoke about the Master Emerald, it was perfectly capable of expelling the Demonic Presence of Lord X, a being from the vast void of the universe who had lived far longer than the God of Destruction Chaos himself.

But the plan all amounted to someone having to lure Lord X out of hiding in order to initiate a fight between one of their own and him. But that was the easy part, keeping him completely taken off guard by the fight between himself and the person in the battle with him was the very, very hard part. Considering the fact that he's probably not going to go easy on those he comes across and will just go for the kill, and practically nobody is safe if they go out there. Although since Izuku was fairly new to the place, Izuku thought that he'd be the perfect bait for Lord X to come out and play some games before coming in to try and land a final attack on him in order to kill him. Izuku was all for that kind of plan and went to inform Sally, Tails, Knuckles and Eggman about his idea for catching Lord X unawares and saving Sonic from the Demon himself. Walking around Mountain Peak, Izuku found himself arriving at Eggman's little building hearing the sounds of machinery inside, knocking on the door he waited for the mad doctor to come out. Once he did, he looked around before looking down to see Izuku's shy form shuffling on his feet.

"*Sigh* What do you want plebian?" Eggman asked, looking exhausted. "I-I think I have a-a plan for h-how we catch L-Lord X unawares." Izuku said, as Eggman leaned on his door. "Well I'm waiting to hear this kind of plan." Eggman said, as Izuku looked away. "W-Well it involves me, b-but I'd rather w-wait until I've gathered everyone to I-inform them about m-my plan." Izuku said, as Eggman just stared. "Well not like I have anything to do aside from building robots that can lock onto Lord X's presence within the world of Mobius. Meet us at the Main Hall." Eggman said, as he walked back inside his house before coming back outside. "It's down the road and to the left, it's a really large building for comically short anthropomorphic creatures." Eggman supplied as Izuku hurried down the road.
=============================================

Walking through the halls of the Main Hall, Izuku saw each and every famous creature of Mobius that had managed to change history as a whole on the planet. He entered the meeting room within the comically large building and saw the leaders of each part of Mobius sitting in their chairs as Eggman grumbled to himself. Looking around at the table, he found multiple survivors who were leaders in their own right in the Bat Mobian he had rescued earlier that day, a black and red version of Sonic that Izuku trembled when under his gaze. A Silver looking hedgehog who looked similar to the black and red one who just stared at him in a questioning manor before settling into his seat once Izuku looked at the others. A pink colored Hedgehog as well as a small rabbit Mobian was present as well, with her a large robot that looked eerily similar to Eggman's robots. To finish the table off was Sally and her second in command sitting at the front of the table looking at him with confusion as they had no clue that he was the one to come up with this kind of plan.

"So what is the meaning of this meeting Eggman? I know that you couldn't have come up with a plan for Lord X that fast since you just arrived not even a few hours ago." Sally questioned as the man in question himself just scoffed. "I didn't come up with a plan, the green rabbit over there had made up one on the spot earlier. Go on you little brat, tell them and me about your plan." Eggman said, as he glared at Izuku through his goggles. "W-Well I plan on being the bait for this k-kind of plan." Izuku started as Sally just looked downright concerned. "Why are you thinking that you should be the bait for this kind of plan? What is it?" Sally questioned, looking vastly cautious at Izuku. "W-Well, Lord X hasn't really m-met me personally. N-Not to mention he's n-never met me before I arrived here. S-So who better to distract h-him from your plan of using t-the M-Master E-Emerald to e-expel him from S-Sonic's body, than myself? S-Someone who doesn't e-even belong in t-this world." Izuku said, as everyone stared at him. "H-How fast are you?" Tails questioned cautiously. "I-I was able to catch him by s-surprise earlier this week... saving her." Izuku said, pointing at the Bat. "What? Lord X had managed to catch up to me whilst I was flying." The Bat Mobian replied with a shrug of her shoulders. "Rouge you were supposed to be on a supply run, how did you manage to nearly get killed?" The black Hedgehog questioned exasperatedly. "I didn't notice he was there Shadow; I never knew until he had sliced a little bit into my wing with his massive claws. I was lucky the greenie over there was able to save me in time, otherwise we'd be having a very blue and red problem on your hands." Rouge said, as Izuku finally found her name. "Well aside from that, I think we should come up with someone who is on par with Sonic in terms of overall speed when it comes to being bait." Sally said, as Shadow glared at her. "I don't know how you think I'm fast enough to be on par with Lord X, but if you hadn't remembered Sally, he can fucking fly." Shadow retorted with anger. "Has Sonic ever flown in his time without the Chaos Emeralds?" Sally questioned. "Only with them Sally, and he was in his Super form when that happened." Tails said, with Knuckles nodding.

For the remainder of the day the group of leaders conversed with one another about who should be the bait for Lord X. But as they couldn't come up with anyone else, Izuku found himself a little smug as they knew that nobody else would last very long against Lord X in a fight, especially since he could fly. But if he were to meet Izuku in the flesh instead of using one of his many drones, they might have a chance to catch him unawares. But as soon as everyone turned to look at him, they noticed a small outline of where he saw still there but his physical body was gone from the area, and rushing out to find him they couldn't find him. Eggman had immediately set off to check his robots for the rabbit's signature within their world it would take a few minutes, but they would need all the time in the world now if Izuku was actually going to enact his plans now.

Walking outside of the Mountain Peak ruins, Izuku walked as far as he could in order to have Lord X sense his presence within the entire world of Mobius. He had actually made it to what the others called Green Zone by the Freedom Fighters when he found a drone standing across from him with a confused expression. They immediately walked towards him with a very malicious smile on their face as their hands rose into the air as Izuku rose a hand into the air as well causing the drone to stop their plans. Staring at him now with confusion, Izuku took this chance to call out to Lord X in order to talk, but he wanted to state a little quote from his favorite comic character that he'd seen back in his world through a movie. A movie called Dr. Strange.

"What are you doing? Don't you care about your life?" The drone questioned. "Lord X, I've come here to bargain." Izuku spoke as he glared into the Drones eyes. "What makes you think that you can bring him out through a bargain?" The Drong questioned again. "I have information about the plans of those on Mountain Peak, as well as who are still alive that he hasn't caught." Izuku said, as he looked determined. "Are you sure that you want to say your bargain? I can always kill you before you tell me and probe your mind for that information." The Drone said, raising a clawed hand. "I can also give him information about a world chock filled with superpowers that he would be drooling to collect as his slaves." Izuku said, determinedly. "A world of Superpowers you say? What if I think you're bluffing?" The Drone asked. "If I die without giving the information about that world... then that information is gone forever." Izuku said, as the Drone laughed maniacally. "Well played, I will inform Lord X about your bargain. Play your cards right, and you might become the new host for the master." The Drone said, before disappearing into black smoke.

Izuku stood there for a while before he felt his heart continue to beat very fast, like he was terribly fearful for his life at this moment. He knew that he was jumping the gun for this plan, but he wanted to buy everyone enough time to set up... and what better way of doing that then selling his old world out? Sure his mother lived in that world, but as of late she had been splitting apart from him emotionally for the last 10 years of his life and he'd found some letters from his father informing her about how she could move into the United States to live with him. And she had accepted his offer to go there, he read the letter she was about to send back, and it showed that she was very sad about her life with him in her life and wanted to start over in America. Because of that, Izuku had willingly torn his relationship with his mother that night as he stopped talking to her as well as hanging out with her over the last few years enough that she had been about to leave the night before he met All Might.

He was brought out of his muttering when he heard heavy breathing behind himself. Turning his head around, he came face to face with Sonic's form as the Demon inside was looking at him with an exasperated expression on his face before smiling.

"So, it appears that your muttering session is complete. What was this... bargain you had in store for me?" Lord X questioned, his expression now very intrigued. "Like I said, Lord X. I've come here to bargain with you. And I have information about a world that you could take over, and simultaneously lord yourself over as the TRUE GOD of that world." Izuku said, as Lord X now looked very attentive. "What does that world have that this one doesn't have?" Lord X questioned. "Everyone in that world, minus a 20% minority has a superpower of their own. And most of them are completely corrupted, and if you show them who you really are... they will follow you without fail." Izuku said, as Lord X looked like he was really about to bite. "And if you are wrong?" He asked. "Just look through my memories, you can manifest yourself in my... Universe itself and take over the human you desire to be the most on that planet where I lived. They all have superpowers, and they are more than powerful enough to sate your lust for power." Izuku said, as Lord X was now rubbing his hands together. "You are willing to give up your universe for my eternal pleasure? Surely there is something you want in return?" Lord X questioned. "There is, in exchange for my world... could you please leave Mobius and its inhabitants alone for the rest of their lives in this universe?" Izuku asked, his eyes conveying that he wasn't lying.

Lord X stood against the tree as he saw the others within the world of Mobius mobilizing in order to take him down. He chuckled to himself as he realized the plan Izuku was making, it was a good bargain for him in the end... all he'd need to do is 'allow' himself to be expelled from the Hedgehog's body and he could literally take control of the world the rabbit told him he was from originally. Something had to happen to him to want to have nothing to wish for that world and protect this one he came to, a world that has yet to show him the pros and cons of living here forever. He ultimately decided to ask a question that was on his mind since Izuku bargained with him.

"Did this world of yours, do something to you that deserved you to not protect them? Surely there are people there that you'd wish to protect." Lord X questioned, Sonic's voice echoing through. "Don't answer him! HE WILL LITERALLY TAKE OVER YOUR BODY!" "That world I came from... it didn't like the fact I wasn't born with a power. It is entirely corrupted with those who value the power of a quirk/superpower to become something that they dream of. A-All I e-ever wanted... was to just b-become a Hero. A-And everyone either m-mocked me or berated me f-for my dreams. M-My idol even told m-me it was i-impossible." Izuku said, as tears now flowed from his eyes. "Did they ever, hurt you physically?" He questioned, his tone... oddly soft. "E-Every day of my life. E-Every day I-I contemplated w-whether or not I-I should end my own life... was e-even 'encouraged' to end it b-by w-who I thought w-was my fr-friend. Do y-you want to know his exact words?" Izuku questioned the demonic being. "I guess I should humor you for your plan to come to fruition." Lord X said, as Izuku stared at him shocked for a moment. "S-Should've known t-that you'd ca-catch on. H-He told me that... If I wanted to be a Hero so badly, then there might be another way I could become one. Just pray that I will be born with a q-quirk in my n-next life and take a swan dive of the roof of the building. He told me to kill m-myself, a-and I am not o-okay with that line of thinking." Izuku said, as he continued to cry rubbing his eyes.

Lord X has killed a great many Mobians and many universes of Mobius where he'd been capable of killing Sonic and his friends. Though there was one constant in each universe he'd entered. Nobody was ever rude to anyone except for those they had explicit reason to be rude to, but to hear that Izuku was bullied, and suicide baited for no reason aside from his seemingly inability to have a superpower of his own... it caused the eldritch deity to feel something he'd never felt in eons. Something that hadn't been felt since he was brought into being by his baby sister, Emperess C. He could remember how she was treated by the other Gods of Mobius, especially that of those who were very afraid of her power to create Demonic beings such as himself to be an older sibling. And he took the form of Sonic because he had all the qualities of an older sibling from how he viewed the many realities where he became the older brother figure to Tails and decided to become similar to him there. Only for the Gods around him to banish him into the void of the known Universe and kill his baby sister whilst he couldn't do anything to come back, and for a moment... he felt a little sad for Izuku. An emotion he'd never felt in eons as he'd though before but shaking his head with Sonic's physical form he looked into Izuku's clearly broken eyes and started at his broken soul inside.

All he could see from Izuku's soul was a literal child around the age of four, green eyes, hair with black highlights, wearing blue t-shirt and yellow cargo shorts as well as wearing red high-top shoes. And all he did was reach out asking just for a single friend he could have. And as much as Lord X wanted to become that friend for him, his... murderous tendencies would scare the poor boy inside the soul of the boy too much. He let out a sigh before holding out a hand as he looked into Izuku's eyes with a softer smile on his face that Izuku reached outwards to hold onto as well.

"Bargain... accepted." He said, as their palms connected.

Chapter Text

Lord X and Izuku's palms connect with one another as they shake their hands. Lord X feels the information that the bunny gives flow into his mind as on the outside his form the entire Freedom Fighters are able to take him down and pin him to the dirt. As they use the Master Emerald to pull Lord X from Sonic's body, the Demonic Spirit merely smirked as he moved into Izuku's body to absorb enough energy, power, and information from the bunny. As Sonic's body is freed from the Demonic Spirit, everyone notices that Izuku's form has a weird aura surrounding itself as he stands alone in the field as everyone surrounds him. Sonic glares at the bunny with fury as he prepares to walk over to him in order to punch him in the face for doing something so cruel.

But before they could do anything, they watch as the aura suddenly disappears as the bunny suddenly falls to the ground red electricity moving across his skin before it is absorbed into the body. And as Lord X flew high into the sky before disappearing from the world of Mobius, he smiled to himself as he looked at all the memories that the bunny had of his previous world. That world would get the vengeance the boy desired but kept hidden from the place for 10 whole years, the fact that he never tried to become a villain in that world was really telling about his Heroic Personality. He would rather save it instead of letting it fail from the inside or forcing it to change with him being a villain to fight against.

Back on Mobius however, Sonic and the others sat in their meeting room as they talked about Izuku. The simple fact that he talked to Lord X without their presence was very concerning to them since he never told him when they were going to initiate the plan. He was very impulsive when he stated the plan, as though he expected for himself to be injured in the plan from the very beginning. Now though they stared at the sleeping bunny as he twitched in his seemingly dreamless slumber, Sonic however had a few things to say.

"Alright, do you all want to know what happened in that conversation between Izuku and Lord X?" He questioned as everyone looked to him. "What did they talk about?" Sally asked, as everyone listened in. "Shit, the bunny talked about how his previous world treated him so harshly it was as though he wasn't even human to them. But he willingly told Lord X to take over that world in exchange for keeping our own world safe." Sonic said, as everyone had their jaws dropped. "He sacrificed his home world, just to keep our own safe. That takes serious balls." Eggman said, chuckling. "Not that! He willingly sacrificed the world he was born in!? He should've made sure that our own world was killed off in order to stay alive!" Sonic said, angrily. "So you willingly would've allowed him to destroy our world for the sake of saving trillions of lives of a world in an opposing universe?" Sally questioned with a glare. "N-No! B-But at least think about the repercussions! He's essentially killing trillions of lives from his world by allowing that demon over there!" Sonic said, as Eggman chuckled. "You know for a hedgehog you are seriously idiotic." Eggman said, as he looked at Sonic. "What makes you think that I'm an idiot? I have defeated you many times with my IQ level." Sonic retorted. "Sonic, what Eggman is talking about is the fact that you never really listened to how Izuku talked about his world did you?" Shadow questioned with his eyes closed and arms crossed. "What are you talking about?" Sonic questioned fixing a glare to Shadow. "His world has hundreds, if not millions of people with Quirks, superpowers similar to our own. Only around 20% of the population of his world has no power. Lord X needs to have a host that has power similar to his own in order to take over. Izuku sentenced Lord X to his own demise." Shadow explained as Amy looked to him. "Can you say that again for idiots' sake?" Amy questioned. "In layman's terms, in my world everyone has a power that can just as easily counter his own Demonic powers." Izuku said, with a yawn causing everyone to look at him.
============================================

Sonic looked at Izuku for a few moments before standing up, Izuku looked at him blearily as he rubbed his eyes. But before he could finish clearing out his eyes to see, he felt something smash into his cheek sending him from the couch and onto the ground with a yelp. Rubbing his cheek, he looked back up at the person who punched him in the face and saw Sonic glaring down on him with fury as well as anger written on his features, bringing back memories of Bakugo as he glared hatefully at Izuku and smiled evilly. Izuku scuttled back to the wall as his entire form was shaking with fear as he stared at Sonic, and it brought everyone to pull the Hedgehog away from the shivering bunny.

"W-W-What did I d-do in or-order to be p-punched!?" Izuku asked, as Sonic growled. "YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DID!? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GONG TO BE KILLED FROM YOUR ACTION!?" Sonic screamed. "You don't know how my life was Sonic. You think that I wasn't treated as a human? I was treated as a lab experiment by everyone I knew and loved! My own mother hated me! Do you really think that I have no faith in the fact that those in my world could change?" Izuku asked. "That doesn't mean you can sentence them all to death!? Some of them could be truly kind and Heroic people you hadn't met yet!" Sonic said, as Izuku shook his head. "I've met people who played nice to me Sonic, and they just betrayed my trust not even a few hours later. I've never had anyone I could fully trust, I don't even trust everyone in this room as we speak!" Izuku said, as he looked into Sonics eyes. "You have no reason to let your world suffer because of how you were treated!" Sonic retorted as Izuku stood up. "Does anyone have something that can have you feel all the pain of one's memories?" Izuku asked, as Tails walked over to a device he'd made. "Well I made one for Robotnik for when we eventually catch him without having this kind of situation happening. But I guess we can have it show your entire memory bank." Tails said, as Izuku nodded.

Placing the small device on Izuku's head, the young bunny felt all his memories flowing out from the deep recess of his mind. Every single thing he'd hidden from his life that caused him extensive amounts of pain ranging from emotional to physical to metaphorical. And each memory that was shown was like a gun pointed at each of the people in the room as they watched as Izuku went through each trial of pain and misery in his life. They watched as his mother slowly over the course of 10 whole years lose her love of him and eventually move out of the home and head to America, they watched as Izuku had a very close friend in childhood betray his very trust. They watched as everyone around the boy lose his trust as well as care over the course of ten whole years in a matter of minutes. Sonic however remained calm through it all, he didn't show it but he felt like a jackass for telling Izuku that he was heartless to give up his planet. The fact that from all the memories the boy had of himself being used as a Quirk based punching bag was enough for him to place a hand over his mouth to cover up the bile coming up as they all watched him patch up his wounds.

Tails however was feeling very similar thoughts to Izuku as he watched the boy grow up. His friends giving up on him and beating him for something he couldn't control, it caused him to hug his second tail to his chest as he felt tears fall down his face. The women of the groups however just stared at the screen with growing concern, the fact that Izuku went through all this pain before coming to their world was not something most people would survive with. Much less put up with before going down a very dangerous path of villainy to get reparations for all the pain and suffering that was dealt to them. The fact Izuku had not even thought for a moment of betraying his world for his own benefit never crossed his mind until he came here reborn as a Mobian. Not only that, he sacrificed the only home he'd ever had... just so that their home wouldn't be lost. It showed that he had a modicum of trust in their cause as well as world for a safe place to live, aside from Eggman's machinations.

Izuku however just stared at the memories that were in the deepest parts of his mind as tears fell from them. He hated re-watching the memories of his past, from his Quirkless Diagnosis, to his mother telling him he couldn't become a Hero without a Quirk. All the way to his old friend, who had become his greatest enemy/bully/abuser, as he informed him about the best way to become a Hero and get a quirk was to just kill himself. That was the worst day of his life if he thought about it, not to mention the fact that he'd met All Might and the Hero himself told him that it was impossible to become a Hero in the first place. Taking off the memory machine, everyone noticed one singular memory pop up that seemingly didn't belong to the others, it showed Izuku standing in front of an elderly man with yellow locks of hair and brilliant blue eyes that glowed with power. And then the words came out as Izuku couldn't stop it in time.

"Do I think that you can become a Hero without power? No. No, I should think not." All Might said, as Izuku felt a small part of his brain freeze. "It's alright to dream kid, just make sure that it's realistic." All Might continued as he opened a metal door and walked through it.

Everyone stared at the memory as they knew that this held significance in the boy's life as they rewound the memory to the point of which Izuku met the man and they saw the man as a much more muscular man. His form was very imposing as he stood much taller than Eggman himself but was built from head to toe in muscles. They watched as he saved Izuku's life from a very particular villain made of sludge, and Sonic made a small remark about being capable of making a tornado with enough speed to send the villain flying away. But as the memory went on, they watched as the man recklessly threw a powerful punch at the sludge villain causing a small shockwave of air to displace the villain and accidentally knocking Izuku out. But mere moments later was shown to be carrying the boy in the air as he had grabbed onto his leg, and landing on another building. It was here that they listened in on Izuku's ideals in that world as a young man wishing to become a Hero without any kind of training whatsoever.

"I-I think that b-becoming a H-Hero to h-help people is t-the greatest th-thing someone can do. A-And you I-Inspired me to become a-a Hero like y-you one day. E-everyone doesn't really b-believe that I can become one, and h-have been beating that into my head f-for ten whole years. B-But I need to k-know! C-Can someone without a Q-Quirk become a H-Hero like y-you!?" Izuku called out, as All Might stared at the boy. "Q-Quirkless?" All Might asked, concerned. "I-I know that it's not really b-been something to h-have happened in the p-past, b-but I think that I-if I work r-really hard I c-can become a H-Hero like you-" Izuku said, finally looking at the Hero.

Everyone watched as the mountain of muscle that was All Might in the memory be shown to be an actual much shorter man with a bony form. His very scrawny form showing that his experience in the field is not to be trusted, in fact he looked like a mere brush of wind could knock him over if he wasn't very careful. The man let out a bit of blood as he let out a deep huff of air as he tried to get some oxygen into his lungs causing the memory of Izuku to scream in fear before pulling out a handkerchief out from his pocket.

"Thank you young man, *Cough! * *Cough! * But I need you to promise me to never tell anyone about this form. Nobody can know that their Symbol of Peace looks like he's minutes away from deaths door, no matter how true that statement really is." All Might said, with a cough. "S-Sure thing, h-how did this happen?" Izuku's memory self-asked. "I got this gnarly scar about 6 years ago to this very day. I fought a villain who could dish out a blow so horrifying that it took most of my stomach as well as a full lung and half of my respiratory system just to fix." All Might said, as Izuku showed his knowledge to the man. "Six years ago, it wasn't that fight with T-Toxic C-Chainsaw, was it?" Izuku asked in the memory. "No, that man couldn't even lay a finger on me, he only got a few lucky hits in because of my injury. But no, he wasn't the villain who had done this to me." All Might said, letting his shirt fall down. "I-If Toxic C-Chainsaw didn't d-do that to you... who did?" Izuku asked, in the memory. "I made sure that the villain who had done this was immediately hidden from all accounts, he must not be known to exist. After all I did kill the man with my bear hands." All Might said, as Izuku in the memory recoiled from the information.

Everyone watching the memory looked on in horror as they looked at Izuku who was looking far away from the situation at the moment. The boy looked like he had gone catatonic with how he was listening to this entire thing again; it really did hurt him to make him incapable of speaking at the moment. Rouge had walked over to the boy and sat next to him as she looked at the memory as it continued onward from the entire problems of the Number 1 Heroes destroyed form.

"Now to answer that question of yours. Do I think that someone without a Quirk could become a Hero? No. No, I should think not. There are many other ways of becoming a Hero to someone else. You could become a doctor, firefighter, or even a police officer. The police get harassed because they put away the villains that we Heroes capture, but they are the ones who actually put the villain behind bars. It's alright to dream kid, just make sure that its attainable. Realistic. See you later, young man." All Might spoke as Izuku and All Might in the memory faded.

Looking back at Izuku who looked to be outright crying over the memory again, Rouge decided to give the bunny a hug as he just stayed still. But eventually his eyes regained their color as he let out a massive wail of agony and mental anguish hugging Rouge back putting his face on her shoulder. She watched as the tears flowed from his eyes down her shoulder letting out a sigh before wrapping the small shivering bunny with her wings as she walked away able to pick him up with ease. The others looked at how skinny the boy really was as they could see some of his ribs from how skinny he looked and one Rouge left the room with Izuku in her arms still crying, Sally and the others looked at one another before glaring at Sonic.

"You will be apologizing for your actions towards him. He clearly hadn't had a very good life before coming here. For god's sake this was his first week living in our world, and he's not only helped us non-stop, but he assisted in saving the world clearly all on his own!" Sally said, as Amy and the others nodded. "Hey what are we going to do with him anyway!? He is going to need a place to live!" Sonic said, as Sally smirked. "Place him in the care of Vanilla and Cream, since they are rabbit people, they can help him gain some muscle and other parts of what he really looks like." Amy said, as she and the others left the room. "Wow, and here I thought I was the villain. To see that the boy had a villain even worse than I was. All I want is to help people adjust to live with technology and have a slight kink in turning animals into robots." Robotnik said, leaving the room causing Tails and Sonic to gag.

Chapter Text

Rouge was pulling Izuku along as they walked through the main base of the Freedom Fighters. She had been listening to him sniffle to himself quietly as he silently cried, his wailing of sadness long over, but still tears fell from his eyes to the point she thought that he had the superpower of crying tremendously without losing water. She smiled down at him before rubbing the area between his ears on top of his head, before noticing something very weird about him, whilst she rubbed his hair offhandedly, he leaned into her touch. It was almost as though aside from the love he got from his own mother; he was extremely touch starved when it came to others, she shook her head at that though though. There was no way he wasn't in close proximity with women of his world, since he had a school... although now that she thought about that... most if not all of the people in his school were highly abusive towards him, emotionally and very physically.

Sighing, she just helped him into her vehicle that she had bought with the money she had stolen from most people she came across. With him sitting in the passenger seat of the vehicle, she decided to bring the bunny boy over to someone she knew for a fact could get him back to what his memories portrayed him as before the whole Superpower thing in his world became a thing. Vanilla the Rabbit and Cream the Bunny were just the people for her to bring Izuku to since they both recently discovered the loss of Vanilla's husband and Creams father, so having another male around the house was bound to get them something back in terms of their family. Shaking her head at the very lewd thought of Izuku getting in a relationship with Vanilla and becoming Cream's new father figure in her life, she drove off towards Night Carnival Zone. The place where all Chao's and the Rabbits live in peace with the robots that patrol the area there, it had recently become Freedom Fighter territory since Sally and her allies had liberated the Rabbits from taking care of all of Robotnik's little projects there.

The drive was long lasting for the two as Izuku kept his gaze outside of Rouge's vehicle. The bat focused her time on driving instead of talking as she knew Izuku wasn't in a talkative mood at the moment since his life before Mobius had been revealed in such a half-baked kind of way. But about a few hours after being on the road, the two finally arrived at Night Carnival Zone, and drove through the dark streets of the Zone looking for Vanilla's home within the place. Eventually, Rouge found the home and stopped her vehicle in the driveway of the house before getting out of the vehicle. Helping Izuku out of the vehicle since he had slept for a majority of the car ride there, they stumbled about before finally reaching the front door of the Rabbit household and knocked on the door.

Knock! Knock!

A hum from inside the house was heard between the two Mobians as they waited for the woman to arrive at the front door. And as soon as the door was opened, Izuku was gifted a sight that seemed very adorable for him as he stared at the two in front of himself. In Vanilla's arms, Cream was seen slowly falling asleep as she mumbled about wanting to stay awake to make some cake with her mother. Izuku smiled at the little girl in his still not fully awake stupor as Rouge spoke up for him and Vanilla as the taller woman had noticed Izuku's features.

"Hello Vanilla, nice to see you again." Rouge said, smirking. "Oh, good evening to you as well, Rouge. Is there anything I can do for you?" The tall Rabbit asked. "I just need you to take care of the little greenie here. He just arrived on Mobius a few days ago, and he's gone through some rough things where he came here from... is it alright if greenie stays here with you and Cream until he gets his own home?" Rouge asked. "Oh, the boy could stay here as long as he'd like, just be sure to stay out of trouble, that is my only rule." Vanilla said, as Izuku felt something in his chest tighten. "I-I can stay h-here? A-As long as I-I want?" Izuku asked, his Quirkless mentality showing its colors again. "Of course, you may be a Green Bunny, but it's not something I've ever had to deal with alone before. I mean, just look at Cream here?" Vanilla said, as she pulled Cream out of her arms. "M-Momma, I want to go to bed." Cream complained softly. "Cream, we are getting a new resident. Say hello to... what's your name again?" Vanilla said, before questioning Izuku. "M-Midoriya I-Izuku... ma'am." Izuku replied as the woman smiled. "Don't call me ma'am, it makes me feel old. Just call me Vanilla." She said, as Izuku nodded. "Midoriya? I-Is that a name from a-another country?" Cream asked, a little curious. "Y-Yeah, I... come from a planet where my people s-say our last n-names first." Izuku said, as Cream smiled.

Whilst Cream pulled Izuku inside the house, Vanilla stared at the two before looking back at Rouge. She saw the bat-like woman just watching Izuku play around with the sleepy Cream without any kind of knowledge of how to treat children, and he was doing it like a pro would. Rouge smiled at the information she'd been seeing before looking up at Vanilla with a grim expression catching the Rabbit Woman off guard, Rouge never gained a grim expression unless something bad had happened recently.

"Is there something you wish to tell me, Rouge?" Vanilla questioned. "Yeah, the boy... Izuku. He holds a lot of baggage under all his kindness, he wears his kindness like it's a mask covering the pain he holds underneath it. If he ever snaps at you or Cream, just don't hold it against him... he didn't get many outlets in dealing with his anger. Now that he's in our world, he will be getting plenty of chances to vent out his frustrations with his previous life. He was human before coming here by the way." Rouge said, before turning to walk away. "A human you say. How did he become like my people then?" Vanilla asked. "Me and Knuckles believe it has something to do with the Chaos Emeralds or the Master Emerald. He was brought to our world for a reason, and I intend to make sure that he stay's safe in this world far away from the machinations of Dr. Eggman. Only those of Sonic and his friends would know the pain of suffering that kid has gone through." Rouge said, preparing to leave. "Rouge!" Izuku's voice called out. "Yeah? What's up-" Rouge went to ask before she was interrupted with a hug from the green bunny. "Thank you for doing this for me. I-I've never been given t-this amount of k-kindness before. W-Will I see you again?" Izuku thanked before asking. "Yeah, just make sure that you keep your eye on the news bunny boy." Rouge said, before kissing him on the cheek.
==============================================

Standing in the driveway of the Rabbit household, Izuku just watched as Rouge got into her car and drove off to wherever she lived. He pulled a hand over to his face before placing a couple fingers on the spot where Rouge had kissed him on his cheek before his face suddenly erupted in a blushing mess as he heard Vanilla giggle. Turning to the woman, he saw that it was already too late as the Rabbit Woman had already taken multiple pictures of his face as well as reaction to being kissed by the loveable bat. He looked at Vanilla with a very concerned expression before Vanilla spoke to him again garnering his full attention.

"I won't be showing it to anyone, don't worry about the pictures. I only place them in picture books." Vanilla said, rubbing his head. "S-Sorry, I just never had been kissed that w-way by a g-girl before." Izuku said, his cheeks blushing still. "Don't worry, when we're done with you... you will be the one flirting with her." Vanilla said, with a very sly smirk on her face. "I-I-I don't l-like her like that!? I-I just m-met her like Y-Yesterday!?" Izuku replied in a tone that was filled with embarrassment. "And it's already showing how much you like that Batsy of a woman, I didn't take you for someone who was into bad girls." Vanilla said, pulling him inside the house to play with Cream.

Chapter Text

Izuku went to bed inside of Vanilla's home on the couch, he had made it adamant that when the time comes, he will leave her home so that he could strike out on his own. He didn't want to burden the family with anything about his problems, he may be a rabbit Mobian, but that didn't mean that his human characteristics were completely wiped away. Falling asleep was something that came naturally to him when he was in a place he would call safe, but overall, he had no dreams of his life before coming to Mobius. It was all just a peaceful slumber that was brought to surging life with a dream that was actually, good for once... although in the dream he was blushing up a storm since he was standing before Rouge. And she was barely wearing anything.

He would wake up the next morning as he looked down at the blanket noticing something very... odd. Last time he checked, his groin was not that large, much less actually lifting the blanket off of his chest slightly from its height. Shaking his head and getting those lewd thoughts out of his mind Izuku entered the shower of the home and made sure to put the water on extremely cold water so that he could get his erection down. He really didn't want Vanilla and Cream to see his morning wood like that at some point in the morning, he really wouldn't live that one down. And considering the fact that he was technically still in school he had to walk cream over to her school so that she could continue to learn there, although he made sure to be nearby whenever something happened.

He was currently searching for a job for himself to take, he didn't have much skills for others to use in this world. But he'd be damned if he was going to make himself a burden on another family that he'd come across who just wished to help him. So as he searched for jobs earlier on in the day, it wasn't until later on in the evening when he returned back to the household with Vanilla and Cream that the two ran up to him worried as can be.

"Izuku are you alright?! We were worried for you!" Vanilla asked, looking him over for injuries. "I-I'm fine, j-just looking for a j-job." Izuku muttered, as he sat down on the couch. "Dear, you're too young to have a job." Vanilla said, as Izuku shook his head. "I... I don't want to be a burden on another family. I was already one for m-my real mom, I... I don't want to take your home for granted." Izuku replied as Vanilla's expression softened. "Izuku, we won't be kicking you out of our home. You were one of us the moment you were brought here." Vanilla said, as Izuku shook his head. "T-That's the thing though! I-I feel like a fraud!" Izuku said, not realizing that he was yelling. "I WAS BROUGHT HERE BECAUSE OF SOME RANDOM EVENT IN MY WORLD! I... I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A CHOICE IN THE MATTER! AND THEN I WAS BROUGHT INTO THIS WORLD LOOKING LIKE ONE OF YOU! B-BUT GREEN INSTEAD!" Izuku said, his mind slowly breaking. "Izuku, please don't yell. I'm sure that we can come up with some way to make sure that you don't feel like your a burden." Vanilla said, as she placed her hands up where he could see them... slowly moving towards him as though he were a wild animal. "B-But that's the thing! I don't know how not to feel like burden! I've felt like I was one for my whole entire life!" Izuku said, as he paced around the room.

From Vanilla's point of view, the fact that Izuku was pacing meant that something was about to happen. And it wouldn't be good if Izuku were to continue spiraling through his mental anguish as she slowly approached him, and even though he was walking back and forth, she knew he kept a close eye on how close she was. Once she was right in front of him, she noticed how his body instinctually trembled as she towered over him in height before she took a knee to be around his height. Placing a hand in front of his eyes, she moved it slowly over to his shoulder... watching as his eyes were very keen on watching the offending limb move towards it cautiously... as though she were about to hurt him. Seeing him acting in a way that was too cautious for someone of his age, Vanilla felt a tear fall down her face before she softly wrapped the arm around his body. Pulling the boy slowly into an embrace as she rubbed his back, Vanilla felt the boy stiffen under her hug and for a moment feared that he wouldn't take her loving embrace. But that was when he just fell to his own knees as he sobbed relentlessly in her hold, his entire form trembling as he sobbed.

"I-I-I don't know w-what to do! I-I was told, f-for my entire life... that I was n-n-nothing but a u-useless w-waste-e of space. B-But here, I-I was sh-shown a kindness... I'd n-never thought I-I'd get from y-your people." Izuku sobbed. "Don't worry Izuku, what you need right now is comfort. But after today, you will be coming with me to meet someone who can help you with your mental... problems." Vanilla said, not really knowing the problems Izuku was suffering.

Cream was feeling left out of this emotional moment as she ran towards the two and leaped into their embrace as well. For about 2 hours Izuku would continue to cry in their hugs before he slowly pulled away from the two of them, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed for showing them a side that he never showed anyone. So as he stood up and stared into their eyes he asked them both a question that he knew that they'd most certainly answer with kindness and compassion.

"I-I know that I-I'm not mentally okay. B-But that's fine... and I-I would like to ask you both... if you c-could help me?" Izuku said, looking into both Vanilla's and Creams eyes. "Of course we would help you Izuku. Isn't that what a family is meant to be?" Vanilla asked. "I-I don't know w-what a family is s-supposed to do. M-Mine never w-were around." Izuku said, shuffling his foot on the ground.

In Vanilla's mind as soon as that sentence came out of Izuku's mouth, glass broke.

Chapter Text

After hearing Izuku talk about how he never really knew how a family should act with one another, he never expected that he'd be pulled into a deep hug as he felt Vanilla tremble over him. Having the older rabbit pull him into a hug was something he'd never prepared for, not to mention that the rabbit was very beautiful in his eyes as well caused him to lock up in place as he froze. And as the older rabbit had kept him locked in her hug, she felt him trembling slightly before she pulled her head away from his head and looked into his eyes, as she saw the complete confusion as well as building tears in his eyes.

Let it be known that Vanilla cared very much for her daughter Cream, but right now, this little rabbit needed the attention of a mother. Not just any mother, but a mother who actually cared about the fact that their son is all alone in a different dimension as well as a mother who actually shows care to that of a child. So as she pulled a palm over to his cheek, she watched as he watched the offending limb very closely before it was softly placed on his cheek as his eyes immediately looked into her eyes. That was when she decided to speak to him in a motherly tone that caused his heart to slowly wilt.

"I don't know about you Izuku but hearing the fact that your own mother... your own flesh and blood. Not even caring about you, is just heartbreaking. Who was your mother to make you think that she'd never care about you?" Vanilla asked, concern etched into her very skin.

"S-Someone who d-didn't care about me. S-She found out th-that I was Q-Quirkless and s-stopped caring for me." Izuku said, as Vanilla pulled him into her bosom.

The fact that he couldn't say one good thing about his mother showed the kind of woman his previous mother was. She was a very disgraceful and very neglectful person and shouldn't have ever been given the right to be called mom, but that was then and there was nothing Vanilla could do about it other than help bring this boy to his full potential. And as she stared into his large emerald eyes, she made that decision right then and there.

"Izuku, how would you like to be shown what a family should really look like? How they should act towards one another, how they talk to one another, how they need to be there for one another when they aren't feeling good. And other things that Families do?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku stood in her warm hold.

"I-I think that I-I'd like that." Izuku said, as his tears started to fall.

"When was the last time you ever felt any kind of love from your mother, Izuku?" Vanilla asked, concerned.

"I-I hadn't ever f-felt a m-motherly h-hug since I-I was around Four." Izuku said, as he felt even more tears fall from his eyes.

Because now that he thought about it, since he was 3 years old, since when has his mother even given him a hug? When had she even shown that she even cared about his safety whenever he came home with burns, scars as well as a broken leg or arm in the past? He had counted far too many times that the person who was supposed to be his mother, becoming more and more neglectful towards him since his Quirkless Diagnosis, even going as far as beating on him when he came home whenever the school told her about a bad grade.

Unknown to Izuku in this moment, he was muttering all these things out under his breath as Vanilla held him in her arms. They had long since went from standing in the middle of the room to sitting on the couch as the older woman had pulled him into her side as she rubbed his hair. She was listening to him list things down at what his mother had done to him as they began to become overwhelmingly alarming to Vanilla. To hear that a mother, who was supposed to protect their child, beat on them after coming home for just a bad grade? That wasn't a mother, that was an abusive person who wanted power in their own little world.

It wasn't much longer before Vanilla heard the telltale sniffles and sobs that came from Izuku's form as he began to cry even more about his situation. Not to mention the fact that Vanilla was showing more motherly traits that he'd never clearly seen from his mother who was more of a neglectful, abusive parent than a loving, and caring one. Vanilla then heard Izuku's answer to her earlier question as the boy looked up into her eyes as he looked incredibly small to her in that moment, like a little bunny rabbit after being born a few days prior.

"I-If I'm n-not much of a b-burden on your f-family. T-Then I-I'd like to become a part of yours." Izuku said, as Vanilla smiled.

"Well then, let's get your registered tomorrow. I would like to have your last name changed to mine, that way you can forget that life you lived. Nobody should have to live their life through such pain and suffering only to be tossed aside as though you were nothing more than a toy for a child to play with." Vanilla said, as Izuku hugged her hip once more.
========================================

After heading to bed that evening, Vanilla decided to call Sonic and friends. She knew that most of them would probably be asleep at this point in time, but she wanted to let them know about Izuku's situation at the moment so that they could know what was going on. And as she pulled out her phone in her bedroom, she called Tails, knowing the young Fox would be working on something this late in the evening. She walked through the house as she stood just outside of Izuku's bedroom that she'd prepared for him early on in the day for his arrival as the phone connected to the other side.

"Vanilla? What has you calling me in the middle of the night?" Tails asked, curious.

"Tails, you should know something about Midoriya-kun." Vanilla said, as Tails became more serious on the other line.

"Okay, is there something that needs to be done about him?" Tails asked.

"I'm going to be adopting him tomorrow. I went through a very dark conversation last night with the boy, and he's more hurt inside than he's letting on. Has he even told you all about his relationship with his mother from the world he came from?" Vanilla informed.

"We saw memories with a device that I created with Eggman. But other than that, we never saw any memories about his family life, that isn't our problem to deal with right now." Tails said, before changing his wording. "I mean that we didn't see it as something we should ask him about, he was very guarded about his past when we showed his memories. Especially so after the talk we had after Lord X had left our world just a few days ago." Tails informed as Vanilla let out a hum.

"Well, the reason he wasn't as keen on telling you all about it was because he'd just met you all. So I can see why he didn't wish to tell you. But in our conversation earlier tonight, he was deeply hurt by his biological mother." Vanilla said, as Tails gave a nervous hum.

"Was he abused?" Tails asked, after a minute of silence.

"From what he mentions, it was mostly neglect, but it became outright abuse when he didn't come home with a good grade." Vanilla said, sighing as she sat down on the couch.

"That's not how a mother should react to getting a bad grade." Tails muttered on his end of the line.

"That's not all Tails, I'm not sure if he told you this. But from his body language alone, she wasn't the only one who abused him. I'm not sure if it was his father, but from what he looked like when I tried to get him to look me in the eye earlier, he watched my hand very closely. As though he expected that he'd be attacked." Vanilla said, as Tails grumbled off and away from the phone.

"Of course we have someone who is mentally screwed up. Did he say anything about how he got to our world? Anything that could be of use?" Tails asked.

"Not that I know of. He never mentioned anything about that, he's currently sleeping in the bedroom. I will be getting him some things tomorrow to help him settle in the home and I will have him take Cream to school tomorrow." Vanilla said, as Tails gave a good hum.

"That's good, having him connect with Cream on a mental level will allow him to bond with her." Tails informed as Vanilla spoke up.

"That's the funny part, he's already seeing Cream as a little sister." Vanilla giggled.

"How so?" Tails questioned.

"Cream just climbed into his bed with him, she's cuddling up to him as he holds her still." Vanilla said, as she looked at Cream snuggling up to Izuku's sleeping frame.

"Well inform us if there's anything else we should be worried about." Tails said, as he hung up the phone.
"Damn it Tails, get out of that stupid workshop, and fuck me already!?" A feminine voice rang out upstairs. "Crap-baskets."
===============================================

The next morning, Izuku found himself holding Cream close to his chest as the little girl was sleeping soundly in his arms. He found himself giving the girl a hug and rubbing his head on hers as though he were placing his scent on her, not for anything too lewd mind you, just to make sure that anyone thinks about hurting her that someone else is keeping watch over her. He'd read it in an article one time in his world that bunnies and rabbits tended to rub against one another to calm their nerves, not to mention to make sure any other enemies knew that they were not to be messed with.

Again, he didn't know how true that comment was, but he decided to just leave it be before climbing out of the bed. Cream, bless her soul, was still clinging to his shirt as he held her up in the air as he left the bedroom. The way she was curled up like a baby in his arms reminded him of the fact that in his world, his mother had given birth to his baby sister in that world not too long before his death and he was now really hoping that his mother would be capable of taking care of her without putting the girl through a lot of hardship. He entered the kitchen with Cream as Vanilla glanced over her shoulder and smirked at him before setting up the table as Izuku placed Cream in her own chair.

"I saw her climb into your bed last night. Make sure that she makes it to school today, alright?" Vanilla asked.

"Sure thing V-Vanilla-san." Izuku said, as he rubbed his eyes and yawned.

"Breakfast will be done in a little bit. How about you take a shower real quick?" Vanilla said, as Izuku nodded and left the two girls in the kitchen.

Cream took this moment to fully open her eyes as she took in her surroundings. She found her mother looking at her with a smile on her face as Cream smiled back at her mother before she found herself being given something to eat. Once Izuku came back from his shower, Cream had noticed that he'd gone without his shirt this time as she watched him look around the room with a nervous expression on his face as Vanilla smiled.

"The green fur on you looks great Izuku, you look like a green rabbit ready to take on his day." Vanilla said, as Izuku looked away.

"I-I feel a little embarrassed at how I don't really need to wear clothes in order to not be naked." Izuku said, as Vanilla chuckled.

"You don't need to conform to our rules in our world. You can wear clothes if you want, it's most of our species that doesn't even really wear clothing except for the males of our species." Vanilla explained as Izuku gave a nod.

"I've been thinking about living here. A-And in o-order to settle down h-here, I need to learn how to b-be one of you guys and make it a habit." Izuku said, as he looked at vanilla.

"Izuku, you don't need to conform to our society's ways of living. Especially since most of us women wear clothes to feel mostly better about ourselves, I think Amy has some things to say about that department. Although, if anything, if you wish to try out our society's customs I won't stop you. But if you feel too uncomfortable with it, you can tell me about it." Vanilla said, as Izuku gave a nod.

As Vanilla gave him some food to start his day, he started to eat it softly before he fully began to eat as much as he could in quick succession. Vanilla did also take note that Izuku's body type was not nearly as built as Sonic and Tails, as she could just barely see the ribs on his chest before she wrote something else in her small notebook about things she picks up from Izuku's body language looks. Looking down at her list she was becoming very wary about how many things were wrong with him, not to mention that she was planning on taking him to a local doctor in the town just to see how healthy he really is. She then counted the things she's seen him do that caused her to recognize the problems he was showing her.

1.) Slight Limp in left leg (Probably left over problems from being hurt badly)
2.) Jitters whenever he is alone with others (Trained into him)
3.) Neglected Behavior (Isn't aware of most things that others do, sheltered mostly)
4.) Glaring amount of wary behavior when in a safe area (Trained into him) (Physically)
5.) Remove the fur and there would be different scars and old wounds that were healed over (Clear abuse from either peer or family)
6.) Trust in Authority Figures (Probably from a life of bullying) (Not much found on that)
7.) Wary of his surroundings, as though waiting for something or someone to appear
8.) No regard for Self-Preservation (If what Tails and the others told me before he arrived is true)

Looking at these notes, Vanilla felt a stray tear fall down her face as she heard Izuku and Cream leave through the front door. Once the door was clicked shut, she fell to her knees as she looked at the notes with something akin to pure hatred and fear. To see that she had to write this down meant that mentally he was very screwed up to the point that it would take for her to literally train those things out of him... aside from the limp in his leg. From her mediocre knowledge about medicine, the fact that he still had a limp in his leg meant that it didn't heal correctly.

She then decided to prepare his room with things that she could find in the garage with items she'd found inside that used to belong to her late husband. She stopped when she found an old wooden guitar that needed some new strings, and with Izuku and Cream gone, she left to get some new strings thinking that the boy would like it. It could be a showing that she really cares for him. She was only gone for a few hours as she grabbed another new guitar as well using some rings, she'd found along the way so that the boy could use two different guitars in the event one broke.

By the time Izuku had returned back from taking Cream to school, she heard him coming towards the bedroom that she was setting up entirely for him. Once he entered the room where she was setting up everything, she looked at him with a smile as she saw him eyeing the guitars in the corner of the room. He reached out for one of the guitars as he began to thrum his fingers along the chords before looking up at her, to which she nodded her head at him as she took a seat at a nearby chair.

Vanilla watched as Izuku tuned the guitar until he got it to where he liked it. She watched as a ghost of a smile appeared on his face as he began to play a small melody in the moment before he began to sing softly, and she knew right then and there that he could become a very good singer. And he chose a good song, not that she'd heard it before as he began with a small beginning few notes as he began to get further into it. It sounded a little wonky due to it being a guitar doing the beginning where she believed a piano would've better off here.

(A/N This is the link to the song! Hope you enjoy my suffering of writing each and every lyric! Although I prefer hearing sad songs in general. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk3XycambgI)

"Heart beats fast, colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm
Afraid to fall?
But watching you
stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes
Away somehow
One. Step. Closer!

I have died every day
Waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you
For a Thousand Years
I'll love you for a
Thousand More"

Izuku stopped as he began to sing the second verse, and his strumming went from swift and precise to soft and low once again. Vanilla was sitting in front of him with awe written on her expression as she smiled at the boy. She knew that he had a good talent that he could use, and she was wanting to hear more about it. That was when Izuku began to sing the second verse of the song.

"Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything
Take away
What's standing
In front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One. Step. Closer

I have died every day
Waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you
For a Thousand Years
Loved you for a Thousand More!

And All along I
Believed I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you
For a Thousand Years
I'll love you for
A thousand More!"

Izuku stopped right there as he began to continue using the guitar to bring the part of the chorus to an end. He continued strumming the chords as he knew there was another part to the song left over, and the song he was singing was to his baby sister that was still in his old world, the one he gave up for this place. Vanilla noticed that the boy's eyes were now watering as he sniffled a little as he began the third and final part of the song, as she found herself kneeling in front of Izuku, a palm on his lap as she stared into his eyes. His heartbroken and hurt expression showing through in the song he was playing and singing at the moment.

"One. Step. Closer
One, step closer!
I have died every day
Waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you
For a Thousand Years
I'll love you for
A thousand more!

And all along I
Believed I would find you
Time has brought
your heart to me
I have loved you
For a Thousand Years
I'll love you for
A thousand more!

As Izuku continued to strum the chords, he started to slow down until he reached the end of the song before he did one last strum to end it off. Slowly putting the guitar to the side, he placed a hand over his mouth as he started to sob unintentionally as he began to think about his baby sister that he'd unintentionally left behind to be killed off. An innocent child that was left to Lord X's doing, whatever the deity was planning on doing to his home world. He was now seriously regretting having the deity take his planet and home for himself at this point as Vanilla pulled him into another hug, which he was now counting that this is around the 4th or 5th time he'd been hugged since he got here.

"That was a beautiful song. Where did you learn it?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku looked away tears still falling from his eyes.

"I-I'd learnt how to u-use a g-guitar when I-I passed by a small musician store owned by a family called the Jiro's. T-They taught me how t-to sing as well as play instruments... they were l-like the s-second family I-I wish I had... a-aside from you o-of course!" Izuku said, trying to not make the rabbit angry.

"Don't worry about me Izuku, I know how you are feeling right now. But don't worry about that right at this point in time. I hope you're ready to become my child in all but blood, in the eyes of the law mind you." Vanilla said, as Izuku nodded.

Vanilla then pulled out a small folder that held an image of his bunny eared form smiling at a nearby camera. How the woman got that, he had no clue, but he shook his head and saw the line at the bottom asking him for his signature to be officially named Izuku the Rabbit. And raising a hand, he slowly moved his hand over to the paper, and signed his first name on it as Vanilla had stopped him from writing his last name out of habit.

"There, you should play the instruments in the room for some time while I get this finalized. I think Cream would like to hear you sing sometime though." Vanilla said, standing up, stretching and leaving the room with a smile on her face.

Chapter Text

Izuku sat inside the room that was given to him by Vanilla the Rabbit. She had been an overly caring person in his life that he just felt was far better than the mother who had literally birthed him into his old world, the world that he'd allowed Lord X to take over. He still had certain nightmares about the monstrous deity coming back to Mobius because of the fact that he'd become bored with Izuku's world, unaware of how much fun the deity was really having. Although Izuku kept his mind away from the deity that he'd just sicked onto his home planet, albeit very reluctantly, he focused his time on making sure that he was the perfect older brother to Cream.

The small rabbit had taken to him being a new older sibling of hers like a fish to water. She had him playing with her for the next few days after he was adopted by Vanilla and the two told the little girl about him being her new older brother. The fact that he was also a rabbit himself played even more into the fact that he was Vanilla's biological child, although from a green furred individual who could be the father of him. As Izuku spent most of his time singing songs for Cream, Cheese and Chocola the latter two being Chao's that Cream had saved from being killed by Eggman's robots a few times in the past, he was training himself to become stronger.

Izuku enjoyed the time he'd spent with Cream, Cheese and Chocola as the three children enjoyed the times he incorporated his music into fighting. He didn't do it often, but he'd sometimes, whenever he felt like it, would bring a musical instrument that he'd play whilst using certain fighting moves that caused Cream and the others to dance to the music. As of right now however, Izuku was in the backyard of the Rabbit household as he did his normal training regimen in an attempt to become far stronger than he was originally. And today was the day he was going to try something different. It was going to be very dangerous, and he knew that it could injure him greatly if he continued to do this without supervision, but he'd just rather see if he had a power of his own aside from his massive ears.

Standing in the middle of the yard, Izuku entered a power charging stance that he'd seen from shows in his world. As he grits his teeth, he tried to feel out for something deep within him even though he felt as though he wouldn't be capable of feeling anything. He was completely and utterly blissfully unaware of the fact that green electricity began to scatter itself all around him. And that was what Vanilla exited the house to as she saw Izuku's entire body glowing as his eyes remained shut and his fists clenched as the green electricity sparked all around his body.

She was about to ask him what was wrong, before she noticed the sky darken from the sheer electricity Izuku was emitting. And she began to rush towards him believing that something bad would happen to him, not even a few days after the first good thing to happen to him had happened in his life. Just as she was a few feet away from him, a lightning strike flew down from the sky and Vanilla felt the entire world begin to move in slow motion as she could barely move in this kind of speed. Without even being capable of reaching Izuku before the lightning strike, she could only watch in horror as Izuku's eyes opened up as they were glowing a toxic green as the lightning strike slammed right into his head from above.

The ground cratered as it struck Izuku straight on top of his head electrocuting him from the head down. As he let out a scream of what appeared to be pure pain and misery, Vanilla began to rush towards the crater before she found him screaming in ecstasy and pure happiness. She looked at Izuku with confusion as she watched him move his body parts at extremely high speeds, but small gusts of wind were blasted out each time, they weren't very powerful, but Vanilla felt her heart race as she walked up to Izuku with a very unhappy expression on her face.

"Vanilla-san! I-I did it! I-I found my power!" Izuku called out happily, as Vanilla stopped in front of him.

"Izuku, I know that this is a big moment for you. But can you please inform me as to why you didn't tell me about this?" Vanilla asked, sternly.

"S-Sorry, I thought y-you were too busy." Izuku said, shuffling his left foot on the ground.

"Izuku I'm not mad, I just want you to know that you can tell me how you are feeling in the moment. Now can you tell me why you thought you should do something as dangerous as you just did?" Vanilla questioned.

"I felt a weird presence when Lord X took over my body for a moment when I sent him to my home world. It was as though he unlocked something that was forever hidden to my biology, it was something that I should've had when I lived on my world. A quirk." Izuku said, his face as ecstatic as it was elated.

He moved his hands and ears around as green electricity moved about it, providing a good warmth to him. Vanilla moved her gloved hand in his direction as she merely had it held out in Izuku's eyesight as she let her palm get close to the sparks of electricity. As soon as she was close to the electricity herself, the sparks moved directly to her finger providing a static shock to her as she yelped in surprise of the shock hitting her through the glove. Looking up at Izuku he looked worried before she waved him off and brought him inside the house as he figured out how to turn off the electricity off his entire form.

They were so surprised by his new power, that they nearly didn't hear the door open up as a robotic voice was heard by the two.

"Mrs. Vanilla, I have brought young Cream back home from school." The robotic voice called out.

"Make sure that Cream knows she needs to take a bath Gemerl!" Vanilla called out as the robot gave an affirmative salute.

"Gemerl? Who's that?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla told Izuku about the robot's backstory.

Apparently Gemerl was a Badnick that had been working for Dr. Eggman in the past. He had been sent after Sonic and friends in order to finally put an end to the blue blur and the restorationists only for that to fail miserably as Tails had managed to work on the robot after defeating it. He then tailormade it to keep Cream and Vanilla from any and all harm, something that the robot took to with great gusto, and it made Izuku understand that Cream already had a somewhat bodyguard.

When Izuku left the kitchen as he entered his bedroom, he found Gemerl standing near one of the instruments. He looked over at Izuku with a wave as he walked up to the slightly shorter rabbit, and newcomer to the Rabbit family as a whole. Looking Izuku over completely, he did a full body scan as Gemerl then stood back allowing the information to completely fill it's thoughts that were not expressed. As soon as a few minutes passed by without any words from the robot, Gemerl looked at Izuku before standing up from it's sitting position on Izuku's bed before speaking to him.

"Hello there Izuku the Rabbit, I apologize for not meeting you earlier. I had not known that Cream had an older brother in this household." Gemerl said, surprisingly sounding human.

"Hello Gemerl, I hadn't known about you either. But I'm glad to know that you've protected Cream all this time." Izuku said, as the two shook hands.

"Let's work together to keep young Cream protected from any and all harm." Gemerl said, as Izuku couldn't help but chuckle.

"That's the plan." Izuku said, as he got over to the instruments.

"Do you play those?" Gemerl asked, as Izuku looked up at him.

"A bit, I played a few songs for Cream as well as Vanilla during the last few days. They seem to think that I-I'm good at it, although I'm not sure that I am all that good personally." Izuku said, rubbing the back of his head.

"Then please try and make a song for everyone to hear, I'm sure that if Cream and Vanilla appreciate your singing, then everyone should hear it." Gemerl said, before leaving the room.
============================================

As time continue to move by, Izuku found himself working more for the Restorationists after every Eggman fight. He was becoming a very useful member of the pilots that are used to evacuate the civilians to another area where they can wait until everything is rebuilt and fixed after a major battle. Eggman had gone missing for a while now, as no major attacks from him had come up and Izuku was becoming slightly worried about what the man was up to especially since nobody knows what he's up to most of the time.

As Izuku was preparing the ship for flight, he heard movement behind himself. Turning around he found Sonic and friends walking up to him as they all had been wearing smiles on their faces. Looking at them with a bit of trepidation, he watched as they stood a few feet away from him as a thought occured to him... why were they looking at him worriedly?

"Are you guys, okay?" Izuku asked, as he cleaned the windshield of one of the Restorationist shuttles.

"Did you hear about what happened to Sally Acorn?" Amy asked, looking at him worriedly.

"Last I had heard from her; she had returned back to her kingdom. Is there something wrong?" Izuku asked, as Sonic tossed a small picture on the ground.

"We found her, but she wasn't... who we thought she was." Sonic said, with an angered expression.

Picking up the picture that was conveniently placed on the ground not looking towards Izuku, he flipped the page and found the very sad fate of Sally. She had been roboticized by Robotnik at some point in the last few months and it really hit Sonic hard apparently as he wasn't as talkative as he used to be. Looking up at Sonic himself, Izuku took note of how quiet he was being as he kept glancing at him from the corner of his eye.

"Is there a reason why you are telling me this, guys? Isn't Amy going to be the new leader of the Restorationists whilst Sally is gone?" Izuku asked, confused.

"Because we thought you should know. She's been the only one to show you more kindness than most of the others, especially so after the whole Lord X incident about 5 months ago." Amy said, as Izuku shook his head.

"If you all are still worried about me from that, I'm fine. Besides I didn't leave that situation without anything good coming from it." Izuku said, as he went back to work.

"What are you talking about?" Tails asked, confused.

"I managed to realize something a few days after Lord X inhabited my body and left Mobius. Apparently when his spirit inhabited my body, it unlocked something that was forever locked tight to my biology ever since before I came here." Izuku said, as he lifted his hand and activated his power.

The group watched on in awe as Izuku's hand glowed a teal green before green electricity sparked around his palm. Tails was the most in awe as he rushed over and held Izuku's hand with leather gloves, he inspected the electricity as Amy was next to come over to him as she did the same, the one that confused Izuku the greatest to check out his power was Sonic of all people. Looking at his palm, Sonic compared his blue electricity that sparked whenever he used his power to Izuku's as he looked up at the rabbit boy.

"So, you're telling us that Lord X left you a gift after leaving Mobius?" Sonic questioned softly.

"I guess, if anything I only found out about it when I noticed a spark from my hand when I unplugged my guitar from the socket of the wall a week after that whole event." Izuku said, as he finished cleaning the windshield.

"What can you do with it?! I want to know everything!" Tails said, as everyone brought him inside of the base.

They had multiple contraptions as they tested his new power to the highest limits that Izuku had shown. They ran through normal tests of speed, strength, endurance as well as dexterity... they also noticed how his intelligence stayed relatively the same albeit with a higher speed of processing thoughts. When the tests were over, Tails had looked over at the new person with powers in their movement to fight back against Eggman and started to compare notes with others who had similar powers.

"So you're saying that Lightning of a storm had increased the effects of your electricity?" Tails asked, pulling out a notecard.

"Yeah, Vanilla noticed that whenever a storm was nearby, I was far more energetic. And whenever it was a clear day, I could just only run around for a few hours." Izuku said, as Tails recorded the information for later.

"This is good, in the event that something bad happens, you could be someone who could help us fight Eggman if a stormy day happens." Tails surmised as he smiled at Izuku.

"I'd rather stay as far away from fighting as possible for now. I'd rather stick to being a helping hand whenever possible." Izuku stated as Tails nodded.

"That's fine, almost everyone in the Restorationist Army are fighters so having someone who prioritizes safety above all else is good." Amy stated as Izuku left the room.

Once he was gone the other's took note of how Lightning was not the only way Izuku could gain power. They had strapped batteries on his back as they had soon found out that whatever energy he holds within his body, could be used as a conductor to help recharge other things as well as move electricity into other objects. It was a surprise to be sure, but a very welcome one.
============================================

On the other side of Mobius within one of the secret labs of Dr. Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik, the good doctor in question was looking over his notes. The last few times he'd fought Sonic and the blasted rodent's friends, he'd lost each time... and he really wanted to get a win and fast. So as he focused on his research to make the newest big threat a portal appeared behind him as someone walked through. He wore some boots that had high heels on the bottom of his feet, a red overcoat that slightly looked like a maroon version of Eggman's overcoat. He also wore glasses on his duck bill that didn't really do much for his sight aside from making him appear smarter than he initially appeared to be.

He walked into the room as he shook his head and a bit of snow from his ears as he entered the room. Eggman took notice of him from the corner of his eye before focusing on the task of creating a device that could turn whatever he wanted into robots just from a mere touch. He looked at the latest test subject, a mere plant that had a drop of the weird silver looking goop land on a petal. And as it slowly transformed into that of a robotic flower, the inner part of it had been red in color as Eggman chuckled to himself as he made certain modifications to the virus as he called it.

"Dr. Starline, do you know about where Rough and Tumble are?" Eggman asked, keeping an eye on his research.

"They are in prison at the moment good doctor. Anything you need me to do?" The platypus questioned with a smirk.

"I need you to break them out and you can fight Sonic, you will need some experience in fighting the blasted hedgehog yourself if you are to become my successor." Eggman said, as he focused back on his work.

"Your word is my command. I will be back in a few days good doctor." Starline said, leaving through a portal.

Back with Eggman, the scientist was working on a small device through a hologram as he worked hard to make it near undefeatable. He couldn't help the smirk as he saw the initial look of his face on the virus itself as he couldn't help an evil laugh make its way out of his mouth.

"Ho! Ho! Ho! I can't wait to see what Sonic tries against this new plan of mine! After all, it will leave him looking like one of my devices. Be prepared Mobius, if I can't have you... nobody will." Eggman said, as he let out an evil laugh fit for someone as evil as him. "HO! HO! HO! HO! HO! HO!"

Chapter Text

A few weeks have passed since Starline had left the Eggman base in his secret location. Eggman was working especially hard to complete his research on his newest Project, the Metal Virus, his magnum opus for this point in time. He couldn't wait to see what would happen when introduced to actual live experiments and he had already tested it on inorganic life forms such as plants from multiple locations around the globe. And it worked in different ways, either it spread extremely fast, or it worked at a dreadfully slow pace that made Eggman attempt to adjust the virus to make sure that it could spread very quickly.

He was in the middle of a live test on an organic lifeform within Mobius as he was checking how it would react to a lifeform from the planet itself. And the results were conclusive as he watched as one of the chippies he'd collected from the nearby forest from his base and dumped his metal virus liquid on it bathing it in the liquid. Almost immediately the animal had become a robotic zombie that didn't follow any commands at the moment, but it was a resounding success at how fast it acted with the animal, and Eggman moved onto another test. Seeing how long it would take for it to spread the virus towards other organic lifeforms within the same test tube, and he managed to get another animal touched by the robotic zombie and isolate it in another area.

For a few hours the metal virus took hold on the animal as its body fought against the virus as long as it could. But eventually by the fourth hour of fighting, the body couldn't hold it off anymore and the animal became a robotic zombie and Eggman was very thrilled with this kind of information that he moved onto another test. Seeing how fast the spread of the virus could be if he allowed it to be with the other animals in the test tube from prolonged interactions with the infected individuals. And he could only laugh in hysterics as he watched the two robot zombies continue to poke and prod the other animals as they screamed for help as their bodies slowly became robotic zombies.

But there was something odd about the last organic lifeform that Eggman noticed. Unlike how he originally planned for the virus to spread the infection through a mere touch, the last animal was running around the test tube as though they were very fearful of these robots. That was until he watched the robots tear the animal limb from limb and begin eating its entrails without mercy for killing it, something that very disturbed the scientist as he stared in morbid fascination. This was a major setback, as he'd never stated that he wanted to kill all organic lifeforms on the planet, just turn them into robots so that he could terraform the planet into his own image.

He set another organic lifeform inside to see if they would continue this kind of action towards another. And like clockwork, the trio of roboticized zombies had walked over to the animal as it looked at them in confusion before they gained weird expression on their faces and became very feral towards the new lifeform introduced to them. Tearing it limb from limb whilst also not spreading the disease over to them in a way that would give him the idea that he could spread the metal virus to those who couldn't fight against Sonic and his friends. Although this gave the man a characteristically sadistic smile on his face as he immediately looked at his new 'pets' as they looked at him through the test tube that was highly protected from being broken.

"It's only a matter of time before I fix this minor setback within the Metal Virus. But this actually might be the only way for me to get rid of Sonic forever, although I will miss the hedgehog for destroying my plans of world domination, it will be worth it." Eggman giggled before cackling. "HO! HO! HO! HO! HO! HO! HO!"

Over in Westside Forest Mobotropolis, Izuku had left the cottage that Vanilla had moved to after the whole event back in Central City. With Izuku needing to learn how to utilize his newfound power in secret without anyone finding out about it anytime soon, they had him training in the forest near Mobotropolis in a way so that he could do it in peace. The young rabbit was now looking far better in terms of his mannerisms as well as conversing quite soundly with Gemerl who was talking about the many ways to protect Cream from any and all harm that Eggman could do to them.

They were walking through the forest and towards Mobotropolis so that they could get some groceries for Vanilla as she needed some food supplies to make dinner for the next few weeks if they were going to stay in the forest for much longer. The two were entering the city and entering a small convenience store that Vanilla frequented a lot over the last few times she'd come to the city herself to check the place out on her own. Izuku and Gemerl managed to collect everything they could for the next few days for Vanilla to cook before they heard the sound of something flying high above the city. Looking at the sky, the two noticed an Eggman shaped ship that was only consisting of the evil doctor's face as its mouth opened up and a weird silver liquid had come out falling towards the city.

"Gemerl, is that supposed to happen?" Izuku asked, as Gemerl immediately locked into place causing the rabbit to look at him. "Are you okay Gemerl?" Izuku asked, waving a giant gloved hand in front of the robot's eyes.

"Danger imminent to Cream the Rabbit, we must return to the house and evacuate everyone from the home." Gemerl said, as he rushed towards the forest.

"H-Hey! Wait up!" Izuku called out to Gemerl as the two ran into the forest.

In their rush to get into the forest, they had forgotten to see what was happening in the city behind them. As they disappeared in the forest, the civilians looked at the weird silver liquid as it landed on some of them turning them into roboticized zombies almost immediately who attacked anyone they set their eyes on. Most of the Mobians and humans who were around had been attacked almost as fast as the liquid had roboticized the civilians with most of them being infected with the liquid as it spread from person to person. It eventually got to the point that there was enough roboticized zombies that they began to search for anyone who wasn't infected and kill them on site.

With Izuku and Gemerl, they had arrived at the cottage as they had kicked the door down. Entering the living room with a slightly miffed expression Vanilla looked at the two as they were looking around the area for Cream before Gemerl moved through the house as though to search for her. Izuku rushed over to Vanilla and began to pull the woman out of the house and over to the car nearby that she had managed to buy with some rings she'd collected over her time working in the city. But the woman was beginning to see the fear in Izuku's eyes as he was trying to push her over to the car as fast as he could.

"Izuku what is wrong? I know that you've wanted to see the Freedom Fighter's HQ for a while now, but this is ridiculous." Vanilla said, as she giggled nervously.

"Now isn't the time Vanilla-san! We need to get out of here! Eggman's attacking the city! A weird liquid came out of that giant face in the sky, and I really don't think it's a safe kind of liquid!" Izuku said, as Vanilla nodded becoming serious.

Gemerl had ran out of the house as he scanned the forest nearby as he searched for Cream's signature before realizing the other place they were supposed to be going to whilst in the city. The kindergarten where Cream would most definitely be waiting for the two of them as he looked at Izuku.

"Do you think you can run to the kindergarten to collect lady Cream from school? She was in the city still." Gemerl said, as Izuku immediately nodded and rushed off. "Lady Vanilla, we need to leave the city, I have scanned signs of a virus attacking the populace and I find it to be very dangerous to keep you within the city." Gemerl said, as the woman nodded.

"Will we be able to meet Izuku and Cream back over at the HQ?" Vanilla asked, extremely worried.

"I surmise that Izuku has a 95% chance of getting Cream and leaving the city without getting infected." Gemerl said, as Vanilla nodded and drove off.

As Izuku ran through the streets, he found scenes that were horrifying in his eyes. The Mobians and humans who were transformed into weird looking red eyed monsters had been sleek looking in appearance, but they also had a robotic movement about their steps. Moving through the backstreets as well as alleys making his way to Creams school, he had finally arrived at the school in question as he saw multiple people running around the place. Children of all ages, of all grades were running from those who were roboticized in some kind of way with tears flowing from their eyes as they screamed for their parents. He managed to get a metal bat as he started to fight the infected as much as he could allowing the children to escape into the school as they headed to their classrooms.

Rushing through the halls, he tossed roboticized enemies around before continuing further as he searched for Cream. Eventually he found the little rabbit with her chao's and threw the baseball bat into the four roboticized zombies knocking them to the ground as she opened her eyes and finding Izuku standing there. Running over to him with her chao's not far behind, Izuku picked all three up into his arms and rushed out of the school, Cream was also asking if he was going to help all the others in escaping. As he stared at her before looking at the halls, Izuku sighed and rushed over to the principal's office for the intercom system. Turning it on he took a massive breath as he spoke onto it, his social anxiety becoming a major problem in the moment.

"Everyone within Mobigarten, I need you all to remain as calm as you can. Make sure that you can exit the school in a calm but swift fashion, I am Cream's older brother and a part of the Freedom Fighters. And I need you all to come to the busses with someone who can drive one themselves, and make sure that you are not seen I hope you all are safe right now, but you all need to be brave in these moments of strife." Izuku said, without a single stutter.

"Thank you for helping others Izuku." Cream said, with a smile.

"We're not finished with evacuating from the city. We need to get to Restoration HQ, it's something I need to see myself so that I can see what I can do to help them." Izuku said, as he picked Cream up and rushed out through the halls.

As the small group moved through the halls silently, they came across different groups of the roboticized zombies as they stayed quiet. Cream was something that gave him courage as he used their robotic movements against them as he created a sound on the other side of the hallway by throwing an item across the place. And within seconds the robotic monstrosities had rushed off to see who was in that direction, and by the time they reached the busses outside, he found a lot of children hiding under the bus. As he quietly called out to them, they pulled out from hiding under the bus, and Izuku asked for a headcount of them all. Once they were all collected, Izuku climbed onto the bus and began to search for anyone who had a license to drive.

"Is there someone who can drive legally?" Izuku asked as the children looked at him with concern.

"N-No, all the t-teachers were t-taken by the m-monsters." The children called out scared.

"D-Darn it. O-Okay, I will need you all to buckle tight, I'm going to drive it for us." Izuku said, gulping slightly.

Closing the retractable doors, Izuku had started up the bus with one of the bus key's he'd gotten from the staff lounge on his way to collect Cream earlier. As it started a loud cry of the robotic enemies had been heard by everyone as Izuku put the bus in drive and pushed the gas pedal as the bus took off down the road. As they crashed into smaller items along the road, Izuku focused on trying to get the children to safety no matter the damage to the bus. As he drove as fast as he could down the road, he saw in the rearview mirrors that the roboticized undead were chasing after the bus as fast as they could.

He'd come by some civilians who were running away from those infected and would stop to pick them up filling the bus along the path to the outer area of the city. Once he'd collected as many survivors as possible of this attack from Dr. Eggman, he had finally brought the children and survivors out of the city. Driving along the dirt road, Izuku slowed the bus down knowing that they had managed to lose the robotic undead now and stopped on a nearby hill as he saw Vanilla's vehicle on the hill itself. As soon as he stopped the bus near the vehicle, Vanilla and Gemerl had moved over to it leaving the car since they'd ran out of gas for it to continue down the dirt pathways.

The two climbed aboard the bus as they sat in the free seats at the front as Vanilla looked at Izuku with surprise.

"I didn't know that you took this long because you were saving others." Vanilla said, looking at the weary survivors.

"It wasn't easy, I had managed to escape the first horde of them before meeting civilians who were trying to leave the city. I stopped by to pick up anyone who wasn't infected with whatever this plague is, but I managed to save as many people as I could. I just hope that they don't start doing things that are too scary for the children to know about." Izuku said with a grimace.

"You did all that you could, but we should really leave now." Vanilla said, as Gemerl entered the conversation.

"You managed to save Cream and the Chao's from certain death. Good job." The robot said, as Izuku drove the bus at a slower pace this time.

Moving through the countryside, Izuku watched in the mirror above him as Vanilla pulled out a radio and called Restoration HQ. She seemed to be in a major talk with whoever was on the other side of the radio as a whole as he drove as much as he could towards a location, he had no idea where it was. Eventually Vanilla had begun to give him directions as to where to drive to get to the Restoration HQ that was about a few hours away from their current location. Apparently, Sonic and Amy had met two people who were a part of this whole thing and were patient zero, but unlike what was happening to the people in the cities, they were just trying to infect the two.

And due to Sonic saving Amy from being infected, he was forced to be infected himself as he is now running across the world in order to save as many people as possible whilst also keeping his infection in check. Apparently, if you are fast enough you can literally run the virus away. For the few hours that the bus was driving, Izuku was slowly becoming more and more sleepy as he and the bus finally arrived at Restoration HQ. Driving up to the gate, he found that some people had been protecting the front gate from any roboticized undead that he'd come across as they wore heavy armor around themselves or were actual robots. As one of the robots did a scan on the entire bus, they allowed him to drive it into the base as he parked it nearby as he saw Amy rushing over to the bus itself as civilians had begun to get off.

Multiple people had been diverting the populace over to the internment area's where they could rest and stay safe from the virus that was coming around the world of Mobius as a whole. By the time Izuku, Cream, Vanilla, the Chao's, and Gemerl had climbed off the bus Amy had immediately given each and every one of them a hug and thanking God for their survival. Izuku was slightly blushing at the fact that Amy was hugging him so tight to her, but he just patted her back as he was still very anxious around women and was moving through the crowds as he, Vanilla, and Cream met up with Amy in the command center.

"So I'm sure that you all want to know whatever this virus is?" Amy asked, looking at each of them.

"I was going to the store with Gemerl and an Eggman faced ship had dropped a weird silver liquid onto the city. But I don't know exactly how it works." Izuku said, as Amy nodded.

"Thankfully Tails has managed to get us some information on that. Apparently, it's called the Metal Virus, and Eggman did indeed create it. The problem though, is that if there is enough infected who are a part of the Metal Virus' numbers... they begin to act like literal zombies from pop fiction. They tear through the bodies of those who are unfortunate enough to come across them, and they eat them whole... it's kind of terrifying to be honest." Amy said, as she shuddered.

"That explains why there was so much blood at Mobigarten." Izuku muttered as Amy stared at him shocked.

"Please tell me that the children didn't die, I saw some exit the bus earlier." Amy asked, as Izuku shook his head.

"I don't know, all I know though is that I saved as many children who were hiding as possible. I even saved some people who managed to survive the beginning of this thing in Mobotropolis, I will be honest with you Amy, this is something that I don't even think that Sonic can beat all by himself." Izuku said, with a pensive expression.

"Well we can only hope that Sonic is able to get us information on the Metal Virus itself, or Tails makes a cure for it soon. He's in Central City at the moment, getting an in depth look at how they are acting and making a cure as we speak." Amy said, as Izuku sighed in relief.

"Can I help with the rescuing of the civilians near those kinds of cities?" Izuku asked, hopeful to help out more.

"I don't see why not, actually since you are asking... how about you assist Tails over in Central City? Your assistance could be of use." Amy said, as Izuku nodded rushing off.

As soon as he arrived at the hangar bay, he climbed onto one of the ships that were heading out to Central City. The ship took off towards the city so that he could be of some assistance to Tails, the young fox could definitely use the assistance with fighting off the zombots as Amy called them. As soon as the ship was flying high over Tails' lab Izuku leaped out of the ship as it flew off towards Restoration HQ to refuel so that it could come back and save some civilians. Landing just outside of Tails' lab, Izuku knocked on the door as the young fox opened the door slightly to see Izuku waving at him. Allowing Izuku inside, the fox focused all his time on creating the vaccine for the Metal Virus whilst Izuku made sure that Tails wasn't inhibited from being interrupted.

He heard Tails talking inside about needing a life sample of the virus as he knocked on his lab door as the young fox opened it with a vial in hand.

"Don't worry Tails-san, I will get that sample for you." Izuku said, as Tails thanked him.

Silently moving through the massive building, he opened a nearby window and climbed out of it. Closing it softly without a sound, Izuku moved over to some samples of some left-over metal virus laying on the ground as he collected it quietly from the street and covered the lid and rushed back inside the laboratory. Knocking on the door again, he gave the vial over to Tails as the fox got right to work on how to re-engineer the virus and transform it into a cure based on the data that Sonic was providing. Just as Tails began to upload the information over to Restoration HQ, the internet for the building went out and Tails went to pull out the hard files from his computer, just as Izuku was launched through the metal door to his hidden computer.

Looking at the rabbit, Izuku had some blood falling down his head as he'd smacked his head on the corner of the counter as Tails pulled him into the area where his ship was located. Luckily that didn't make him drop the files as he'd placed it on Izuku's stomach as he pulled the boy behind the shutters for his ship/mecha. Breaking through his lab, he tossed the few infected around as they rushed over to the escape route over where Whisper and Tangle were last located within Central City. The two had made it near the escape shuttle that was set to head out for Restoration HQ when Izuku had placed the files in Tails hand who looked at him with shock.

"Get out of here! I will hold them off!" Izuku called out as the zombots rushed at the two.

Without a second word, Tails took off into the sky as Izuku jumped from the plane that Tails had built for being a mecha and onto the side of a nearby building. Looking at all the zombots nearby, Izuku jumped to another building as the zombots followed after him. Tails and the others screamed out for him as he rushed through the streets with millions of zombots running after him their faces in snarls as drool came out of their mouths as well. Turning around a corner Izuku came across another group of zombots, although they were a much smaller group of them and Izuku looked to the sky and found the shuttle where Amy and the others were located. He smiled at it as he saw a glimpse of Cream staring down from the ship at him as the zombots came at him from both sides.

"I guess this is the time to test out my powers over electricity." Izuku mumbled as his body began to emit an emerald glow.

"You have managed to destroy most of the world Eggman, but you will not take away our hope!" Izuku called out, as Lightning struck where he was clearing the entire waves of zombots that had surrounded him on all sides.

And from the shuttle, they couldn't see Izuku anymore from where he was located down on the streets. Cream let out an agonizing scream of anguish as she tried to rush out of the shuttle to go find Izuku as the boy's form was no longer shown in the streets below.

Chapter Text

A large lightning bolt had struck Izuku in the middle of the entire horde of Zombots, and as the entire bolt had struck where he stood, he used the lighting of the strike to escape into a nearby manhole. Crawling across the ground under the roads of Central city, Izuku rolls over on his back as he breaths heavily from the effort used to make sure that he bought enough time for the main Freedom Fighter's ship to head off. As he slowly lost consciousness, time passed by for a few hours as he suddenly awoke to the sounds of the manhole above him breaking apart.

Looking up at the manhole, he found someone who had been trying to hide in the sewers. Taking in a brief glance at who was entering the sewer, Izuku found it was one of the surviving civilians who had been sought shelter in the sewer system of the once great city. They took note of Izuku's injured state as they approached as the pulled out some bandages and began to help him heal from the injuries as they moved away from him, hoping beyond anything that he wasn't infected. And as Izuku moved himself against the wall of the Sewer before the young man glanced over at the civilian who was staring at him with some slight fear in their eyes.

"I-I'm not infected. J-Just injured from using a powerful strike... what happened whilst I was unconscious?" Izuku asked, as the civilian stared at him in fear still. "Is there something wrong?" Izuku asked, as they pointed behind him.

Turning to see what was behind himself, he found hundreds of very hungry zombots rushing towards him and the civilian. Pointing upwards they rush up the ladder in an attempt to escape the zombot undead, and smashing the manhole off the ground, the civilian had fled from the area as Izuku climbed out of the sewer. Looking around the known area, Izuku ran off as fast as he could in a way to search for the rest of the Restorationists who had left Central City. By the time he had finally exited the city, he found himself breathing raggedly before taking stock of the situation in front of himself.

The city was transformed into a metropolis of pure metal and pure mechanical might. He looked at his current surroundings as he noticed how the forestry around Central City itself had been slowly transforming into a mechanical forest that replaced all the life that had once called it home. Standing up from his kneeling position as he caught his breath and moved in the direction the ship that the Restorationists had flown in as he stumbled about the place and for what seemed like a few more hours... he came upon a small town on a hill. It just so happened to be the town that he saw a massive ship located at and he made to move through the forest he was slowly moving without rest.

By the time he had entered the town, he saw two people fighting against the Zombots and immediately rushed to assist them as hard as he could to prevent their demise. As soon as he landed on a nearby building, he overheard the sound of talks between Sonic and a Lemur looking woman. She was looking happy as she fought the Zombots as Sonic began to show some happiness as well.

"You know, I never thought that I'd see the day when you really needed a break from all this Hero Work Sonic!" The Lemur called out laughing.

"Hey, you know me, Heroic to the end!" Sonic quipped as he kicked another Zombot away.

"I know, but you should probably leave Sonic. I'm not sure how much longer I can hold them off... but I'm sure that we can come up with a plan in order to do this thing." The Lemur said, smirking although her eyes betrayed her true feelings.

"What are you talking about? You need to head out, I can hold them off." Sonic said, as the Lemur revealed something on her shoulder. A small piece of liquid metal spreading on her shoulder as she sadly smiled at Sonic. "Sorry bub, but I've been infected. I was checking on my friend when she jumped me at her place, her name was Jewel... and I've been infected ever since." The Lemur said.

Just as Sonic was about to speak again, the two noticed movement from the rooftop that Izuku was on. They watched as a figure leaped into the middle of the Zombots as they stared at the unknown figure as a lightning bolt struck the ground taking out almost all the Zombots in the surrounding area. As they prepared for a new threat to come, one that brought lightning bolts into a fight, they only found a green rabbit who looked very familiar to them. As they rubbed their eyes, they noticed that it was actually Izuku, who wasn't infected despite landing in the middle of the horde of Zombots, stumbling over to them injuries all over his body as Sonic rushed over to him.

"Hey, are you alright kid!?" Sonic asked, reaching out to help him before pulling a hand back in fear.

"I-I'm f-fine... just n-need a breather." Izuku said, raggedly breathing.

"You look as though you've seen some stuff. What happened? Where did that lightning bolt come from?" The Lemur asked, curiously.

"I-I can generate e-electricity... But it really hurts when I allow it to hit myself... even though I don't know if... I can master it enough... to not hurt myself." Izuku panted, before stumbling over near the two.

Sonic reached over to his communicator on his ear as he heard Amy calling out to him.

"Sonic, we got all the civilians that we could find in the town, we are preparing to leave the town! By the way, where did that lightning bolt come from!?" Amy called out.

"Amy, you might want to have Cream come out here." Sonic said, as he heard Cream enter the coms.

"What are you talking about Mr. Sonic?" Cream asked, as Sonic spoke again.

"You might want to hear it from the guy who helped buy us enough time to prepare to leave on time." Sonic said, holding out his communicator.

"Mr. Sonic, what are you talking about?" Cream asked, bewildered.

"H-Hey... Cream." Izuku panted even more, eyes half lidded.

"BIG BROTHER!?" Cream screamed out, as Izuku heard a crashing sound.

As he stared at the communicator in confusion, he heard the sound of something flapping and as he looked up in the air, he found Cream staring at him with tears in her eyes as she dropped from the sky towards him. Her arms became outstretched as she landed on the ground near him as she rushed up to him and gave a very large hug before she began to cry into his chest as Izuku was knocked off his feet as they fell on the ground together. Cream wailed in happiness as she hugged Izuku as tight as she could before Gemerl had arrived in front of them as he spoke in Cream's place.

"We had thought you died. Your life signature had disappeared from Central City when that lightning bolt had struck your position." Gemerl said, as Izuku glanced at the robot.

"I-I found... a manhole. Hid down there for a few hours, until a random civilian helped cover my wounds with some bandages." Izuku said, as Gemerl picked the two up.

"Lady Tangle, you appear to have reached 35% infection. We should remove the uninfected out of the area." Gemerl spoke as he turned to fly away.

"Sorry Sonic, but you can leave me here. I will hold them off." She said, with a sad smile.

"You keep yourself safe until the end... Tangle." Sonic said, before rushing off.

"Tell Whisper that I'm sorry!" She called out, as a new horde of Zombots came at her from all angles.

By the time the ship had disappeared we watch as Tangle fought against the Zombots until she had fully succumbed to the Zombots becoming one of them. As she stared off into the distance, her red glare stared in the direction that everyone had went before walking towards the nearest civilians who had not been able to escape the town.

Sitting on the ship the medics that survived the attack on Restorationist HQ had set to work on keeping Izuku awake. Cream was next to him the entire time as Amy spoke to Tails about what they saw back in the city not to mention the information that Sonic implied that Izuku was far more capable than they originally thought. Not only that, but he was capable of creating Lightning from thin air and managed to show his strength in the last few moments before Tangle had gotten overwhelmed... although Whisper wasn't taking this news very well.

Izuku had noticed how Whisper had stuck near Cream the entire time as she silently cried on the poor girl's lap. But to hear the fact that Vanilla had been transformed into one of the Zombots back at Restorationist HQ... it was hard to take in, but Izuku was far happier with the fact that Vanilla wasn't torn apart in front of Cream's eyes. He had seen enough of that in the city when he had been running around trying to get to the shuttle with Tails back in Central City. Shaking his head, he reached a gloved hand over at Whisper as she stared at it for all but a moment before holding it within her own as she just simply held onto it.

"I-I'm sorry about... what happened." Izuku muttered, as Whisper stared at him for a moment.

She said nothing as she stared into his eyes from her own closed eyes for a few minutes before she nodded and moved away from him and sat next to Cream. For a while nothing was said between the three as they all found themselves landing near another safe zone that the Zombots hadn't taken over as of that moment. As they tried to come up with a new plan of action, they all were listening to any and all plans that Eggman, and the others had thought up. And outside, Izuku sat on a bench as he still was recovering from the whole lightning strike alone... although it wasn't as alone as he thought since he could see Whisper nearby holding a scoped weapon at Eggman through the window.

He prepared to stand up to stop Whisper from killing the man who could help them save Mobius from being taken over by Zombots, when Cream stood in front of the scope. Izuku was slowly becoming scared for her when Whisper lowered her weapon as she stared at Cream, an unknown conversation between the two silent to even his ears before they settled it as tears fell from Whisper's eyes once more. Izuku felt now was the time to enter the conversation as he calmly placed a palm on her shoulder, softly as she looked over at him as he gave her a sad smile.

"Hey, I know that you are going through some hard times. And I know that there isn't anything that I can say to add onto whatever Cream told you, but you should know this. So long as we can trust Sonic to stop this from continuing... you will be able to see Tangle again. If that is who you are mourning." Izuku said, as Whisper stared at him.

"Izuku's right, Sonic will be able to save us from this mess. I just know it, even if he looks as though he might fall over from exhaustion." Cream said, furthering Izuku's point.

Whisper stared at the two for a few minutes before nodding and walking away from the area. And as she waited for everyone else to finish their plans, they moved away from their current area as they decided to search for Knuckles hoping that the echidna was still alive in Mobius. For hours they had been searching around the planet before arriving at the island floating in the sky looking as serene as it had always appeared for the Freedom Fighters. By the time the ship landed on the ground of Angel Island, Sonic jumped off from the roof of the ship and said his hello to Knuckles as he rushed off to run off his infection.

Once everyone got off the ship as well, Knuckles took stock of the situation before looking at Amy with a very confused expression.

"What happened? And why does Sonic look similar to Metal sonic?" Knuckles questioned.

"We are going to need some time in order to talk about it Knuckles. But I need to tell you this... Restoration HQ has been lost." Amy said, as Knuckles stared at her in even more confusion.

"What? HOW!?" He called out.

"Ask Eggman." Whisper muttered as she walked by.

Looking at the man Knuckles glared at Eggman as he chuckled whilst looking away with a whistle.

"What can I say, I never thought that I could make a virus this unpredictable." Eggman said, laughing.

Chapter Text

Izuku stood across from the others as he stared down at the growing army of Zombots. He had seen them tear Mobians and humans apart like they were tissue paper. He was more afraid of becoming one of them than he was of fighting against them, but he had to get his mind on right. He needed to help Gemerl protect Cream as she'd seen her mother get essentially turned into a Zombot in front of herself.

"*Sigh* I swear, nothing we do can even stop this thing." Izuku muttered, pressing a hand to his eye.

"You and me both kid." Sonic said, as he used the running treadmill.

Looking at the blue hedgehog running on the treadmill, he couldn't help but think about a hamster running in a spinning wheel. And he began to chuckle a little bit at the thought, causing Sonic to look at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Hey, don't laugh at me! This isn't a laughing matter!" Sonic said, as the metallization on his arms slowly broke away.

"S-Sorry, it's... just the way you were running. It reminded me of a hamster in a spinning wheel back home... where I used to... live." Izuku said, slowly feeling guilty.

"Don't worry about them, what happened between you and them happened. But at the same time, you, sacrificing your world in order to save ours may not have been a good move. But at the same time, I appreciate you sacrificing the home you lived in for ours. Not many would do that." Sonic said, looking at Izuku with sadness.

"It still doesn't make what deal I made with Lord X right. I-I gave up the home I had known for 14 years of my life, just to save yours. M-My mom may not have always been on my side, but... even then I still loved her." Izuku said, as he stood up.

The two remained silent for a while as Sonic finally spoke up to him. Feeling that if they all didn't survive this fight, then he should at least die with some dignity and apologize to Izuku.

"Hey kid? I'm sorry for the words I gave you at the beginning of the whole sacrificing your whole reality. It wasn't right, and I was just furious that you wouldn't save your own home. And that doesn't mean that I should've been angry at you, you saved my reality, and I couldn't be happier about it. You're not a Hero at the moment, you never got trained for it..." Sonic said, pausing his little speech.

"Well shit." Eggman's voice rang out interrupting Sonic's little speech.

"What's up Eggman?" Amy asked, looking at the egg shaped doctor.

"We've got a new threat taking over the Zombots. And are spreading through the world as we speak." Eggman said, showing a recording from one of his motobugs.

It showed six people of various colors, and they didn't look like they'd be friendly, not only that but they each held a Chaos Emerald in their possession. And they were taking control of the Zombots from various area's around all of Mobius and all were heading towards Angel Island.

"The Deadly Six are here." Eggman said, grim expression on his face.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

As the group tried to come up with a plan to fight the Deadly Six, they couldn't think of any other way to get the Chaos Emeralds away from them. But ultimately, they decided to split up and fight the Deadly Six so that they could grab the emeralds and bring them to Sonic in order to use them. As his Super Form could theoretically stop the production of the Metal Virus on his body.

Izuku had volunteered to head over to fight Zeena as he was quite literally the only person who could fight her from a range as well as close range. Gemerl had thought that he should fight her, but Izuku informed him that his primary objective was to keep Cream safe. He would return as soon as he'd gotten the Chaos Emerald back to Angel Island, just so that Sonic could be saved.

And as Eggman and Tails worked on the Warp Topaz, after Eggman had sent Dr. Starline through his very own portal after stealing the Warp Topaz. Once the Warp Topaz was used to teleport to where all the Deadly Six were located, they all split up to fight each of their decided opponents. Izuku stood at the portal where he'd be going to fight Zeena, before Cream hugged his leg.

Turning around he looked into her eyes as she stared up at him with a teary expression. He knelt down and pulled her into a hug as he smiled at her with the best 'I'll be fine' expression he could.

"Don't worry Cream, I will be back. Just follow Gemerl's directions and stay safe." Izuku said, as he leaped into the portal.

As he appeared in the sky, he used his giant ears to flap his way down to the ground. Once he landed near Zeena the woman looked at him with disgust before glaring him down.

"Who are you, boy?" She asked, as Izuku smirked at her.

"I'm going to need that Chaos Emerald." Izuku said, as he leaped at her.

Over with Tails and Amy, the two arrived at their specific location where their opponent would be see. Zomom was sitting in a house as he was eating some food and controlled the Zombots to bring him food to eat. He even was shown threatening those who weren't Zombots to be turned into them if they didn't make him more food.

Amy and Tails then leaped at him preparing for a fight. As they tried to first beat him with a smart attitude so they could come up with a plan to defeat him. But like most plans, they would fail miserably as soon as Zomom had realized that Tail's initial plan of telling him his lunch was nearby a folly.

The two glared at Zomom as he launched from his angered position at them with his mouth wide screaming at them.

"If I can't have any food, then I will just eat you!"

Back with Izuku, he dodged each of the pink whips that Zeena launched towards him. He leaped over another whip as he pulled his arm back as green electricity had sparked around him and pushed his hand forward. A blast of compressed air and electricity was blasted towards Zeena who just stared at it in awe before it encompassed her.

"GYAAAAAAA!" Zeena screamed as her entire body twitched from the electric shock.

Izuku ran towards Zeena as she still screamed in pain before she shook herself free of his stunning attack. And she let out a burst of air through a shockwave as he was blasted away into a nearby wall as she grabbed his throat. She glared down at him as he glared back up at her with no showing of fear as she smirked at him.

"You show no fear towards me, I'm sure that you will feel it when I get you infected." She said, pushing him towards the Zombots nearby.

As Izuku struggled to escape from her grasp, he found the Zombots actually reaching for him as his body became encompassed with electricity. Zeena stared at him in confusion before the sky darkened before she could even realize what was going on. Looking down at Izuku who was glaring at her with determination, he gripped onto Zeena's shoulders as his eyes became manic.

"I show no fear to you, because I've witnessed someone far scarier than you are!" Izuku said, his pupils shrinking.

As the sky darkened even more, Zeena attempted to toss Izuku off of her. But only for Izuku to grip her even harder as green Lightning fell from the sky and smashed right onto the two of them. Zeena let out a pained scream of agony as thousands of volts of electricity coursed through her body.

Through her screaming of agony, Izuku managed to pull the Chaos Emerald from her chest as he jumped away from her. He felt something touch his left arm but thought nothing of it as he rushed over to where the portal back to Angel Island was at. As soon as he made it to the portal, he leaped into it as he teleported back to Angel Island itself as he landed on the ground safely.

Zeena was left to the Zombots as they tore her to shreds before ending her life.

As Izuku landed on the other side of the portal, he stood upright as he looked at those who had also arrived. Amy and Tails had come back cheering, the Babylon Rogues hadn't come back but threw the Chaos Emerald through the portal. Espio had arrived with a Chaos Emerald himself, with nothing more than a smirk on his face. Silver and Whisper arrived as well with good luck with their own Chaos Emerald as well.

Everyone was smiling until they saw Izuku as he was looking at them confused. He blinked at them before looking at where they were looking and felt his face pale as he looked at it.

"W-What? H-How did that happen!?" Izuku asked, looking at the small dribble of metal virus on his arm.

"Izuku... I need you to toss us the Chaos Emerald before it gets infected!" Amy said, as Izuku did that.

As everyone gathered the Chaos Emeralds, they noticed they were missing one before they all heard a sound from far away. Izuku stayed far away from the others as he sat on the edge of Angel Island, he stared at the incoming army of Zombots. He sighed before he looked at the others as they were making a plan before he looked at the incoming enemy.

"I guess if they can't find it in their hearts to send Sonic now of all times. I might as well go." Izuku muttered, as he stood upright.

Looking at his arm, he found that the infection had increased further. Him not keeping active allowed it to take control of his entire arm as he moved back a few paces. As he was psyching himself up, he heard someone walking over to him with a concerned expression on their face.

"Izuku, what are you planning?" Rouge asked, worriedly.

"They're planning on fighting that guy, aren't they?" Izuku asked, as Rouge nodded very nervously.

"Then I will give them the opening they need to get the Chaos Emerald from Zavok. He's the leader of the Deadly Six, right?" Izuku asked, as Rouge very non-committedly nodded.

"Then I guess it's time for me to actually do something more than just defeating one of the Deadly Six. I need to do something that will make my sacrifice of my home worth being here." Izuku said, as he glanced at Rouge.

"You can still do something Izuku, you don't need to do this!" Rouge said, a little too loud as everyone looked at him.

Izuku glanced over at everyone as they watched him turn away from Rouge and rush towards the edge of Angel Island. Sonic immediately knew what Izuku's expression meant as he rushed to stop him as fast as he could. Silver flew next to him as they both rushed to Izuku as the bunny jumped off the edge of the floating island flying towards Zavok as the man spat on Knuckle's Island.

"Did he just spit on my island!?" Knuckle's voice was heard in the background as they rushed Izuku.

Falling through the air, Izuku felt the electricity around him as he bent himself towards Zavok who looked at him in confusion. The sky darkened as well as Zavok looked up above Izuku as the bunny landed at his chest where the last Chaos Emerald lay. Holding onto Zavok's chest, Izuku placed one of his palms on the Chaos Emerald as he tried to pull it out as his electricity became too much for him to hold in.

"What are you planning brat!" Zavok screamed at him as he reached for Izuku.

"I'm just a distraction!" Izuku screamed back at him.

As Sonic and Silver flew after the boy, they watched as a giant lightning strike slammed into Zavok from above as he growled in anger and pain. Sonic and Silver then got close enough to pull the Chaos Emerald from him, just after Zavok had thrown a pile of Zombots onto Angel Island.

With the Zombots attacking the others, it wasn't long before a large group of their remining numbers eventually became infected. Izuku leaped away from Zavok as the giant man had glared down at him with fury, and Izuku smirked at him. His entire body soon became encompassed with the Metal Virus as he turned right in front of Zavok.

With a great deal of dramatic irony, Izuku was slammed into the ground by Zavok as the giant man had glared at him furiously. With Sonic and Silver, the two had used the Chaos Emeralds to transform into their Super forms, bringing them back to full power. The two then used the Warp Topaz that was in Silver's grasp as they used it to take the Metal Virus and have it be disintegrated in the sun.

With Zavok and Izuku, the bunny had been pummeled into the ground by the villainous man. His body parts were broken apart. All before they were put back together due to the Metal Virus, and the virus itself was yanked from his body before Zavok smirked at Izuku. The boy looked confused for a second, before collecting electricity around his body and slammed a fist into Zavok's chest.

"GUAAGH!" Zavok coughed out before Izuku appeared above him.

"Manchester... SMAAAASH!" Izuku screamed as he sent his foot into Zavok's head.

The explosion from his attack created a shockwave that caught Silver and Sonic's attention as they watched Izuku take down Zavok. One the shockwave had cleared up Izuku was shown standing on top of Zavok's unconscious form with his fist in the air. Silver looked at him with nothing more than shock and awe as the boy looked up at them.

"G-Good job on stopping the M-Metal Virus!" Izuku called out, before he was tackled by Rouge.

"You complete idiot!" Rouge called out, pulling Izuku into her chest.

The boy was left blushing crimson as the woman held him tight to her chest.

"S-S-Sorry! I-I just wanted to h-help!" Izuku replied as Rouge pulled him close to her as soon as she exited the hug.

"You will not do that ever again! Do you know how worried you made both me and Cream!?" Rouge called out.

"I-I... no." Izuku said, looking down.

The two stared at one another, green eyes looking into blue. And before they could do anything else Silver had rushed over to the two of them with a very hard expression. All before pulling Izuku into a hug as Silver made sure that Izuku felt appreciated for what he had tried to do.

"Just leave it to us next time, okay kid?" Silver asked, as Izuku nodded.

"I-I'm sorry f-for stealing your t-thunder." Izuku said, as Sonic chuckled.

"You didn't steal our thunder! You placed yourself in un-necessary danger, sure you were already infected with the Metal Virus. But you could've died from the fall had you not landed on Zavok." Sonic said, as Izuku looked more guilty than before.

"I'm sorry." Izuku said, as Rouge pulled him away.

"I'm not taking you out of my sight for a long while." Rouge stated, as Izuku blushed crimson.

"W-Where is S-Sonic?" Izuku asked, confused

Chapter Text

After the whole final battle against Zavok, and Silver sending the man and his friends back to their planet via the Warp Topaz one last time. The device in his grasp simply exploded and was incapable of being used anymore and with that the Gray Hedgehog made his way back to his timeline. Izuku was confused as to why Rouge was hanging around him though.

She had never made herself out to be the... cuddling type of person. But each time she came over to Vanilla's house after they had repaired the city from all the destruction Eggman caused. He felt himself become a blushing mess whenever the batty woman had come by. Call it his horny mind, but he just couldn't get her face and form out of his head.

He tried asking Vanilla multiple times, but the Rabbit mother just giggled at him behind her hand and went back to the dishes. Just telling him to use protection when the time comes, even further confusing the Bunny boy as he just went back into his room. He collected his guitar and began to fix its strings as he began to get back into using it again.

Ever since Vanilla had gotten it for him out of her attic, he'd never let it leave his sight for more than an adventure with Amy and the others. But as he focused his time away from the Freedom Fighters, he worked on making a new song that he felt was perfect for him. He wasn't one for inspiration, so he just began to use a song that was more attuned to his life.

Each time he sang however, he always had an audience in Cream, Cheese, Chocola and Gemerl who had always listened to him. It eventually became a routine for him, and as he sat in his room today preparing to do another song to himself. He noticed something inside his drawer causing him to tilt his head, his large ears falling to the side with it.

Reaching inside the drawer, he pulled the item that was glowing inside of the drawer before noticing how weird it was.

"T-That's weird, this l-looks like a Chaos E-Emerald... but it's not... looking like them in terms of t-their appearance." Izuku mumbled to himself as he held it in his gloved hands.

Before he could react however, the Emerald glowed even brighter in his hand as his vision was taken back to a vision of his past.

"E=Eh!?" Izuku screamed, as Vanilla entered the room.

"Izuku?! What's wrong?!" Vanilla called out worried before the blue glow from the emerald in Izuku's hand enveloped hers and his vision.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Vanilla felt herself appear in a place that was vastly far different in terms of technology compared to Mobius. Looking around the place, she soon found Izuku standing nearby looking worse for wear as she walked over. Reaching a gloved hand out to be placed on his shoulder, she found it moving through his body as she took in her surroundings.

They were on top of a building. And as she looked around, she found that Izuku was a human in this... place and took his visage in. He was scrawny, but not too much... although the baby fat on his face definitely wasn't doing him favors with girls around his age. But that wasn't the thing she was growing more and more worried about; it was the fact that there was another man here.

His hair was unkempt, and scraggly. Blonde in color with two tufts of it bent at an angle that pointed up before bending downward at the edge. His black colored sclera and deep ocean blue pupils looked at Izuku as he coughed up blood. And Vanilla watched as Izuku reached into his pocket to give the man a handkerchief to help with the blood.

"Thank you for that young man." The man's voice said.

It was deep, strong... but at the same time sounded so weak, and fragile.

"A-Are you r-really A-All Might?" Izuku's young voice asked, as Vanilla winced at how scared his tone showed.

"Of course I am All Might. But this is what I really look like." All Might said, lifting his shirt. "You see this? This was done to me in my prime, I was at my most powerful and I still got hurt. Looks disgusting doesn't it." The man said, as Vanilla winced at the man's tone.

"What does that have to do with anything? Is he answering a question Izuku asked?" Vanilla questioned aloud in the weird vision.

"A-All Might, I-I have to know! C-Can a Quirkless person like me... ever become a H-Hero like you?" Izuku's young tone called out, looking at the man with reverence and... trepidation.

"A Hero like me? No. No, I should think not." All Might's tone said, defeated.

"What? How could he?" Vanilla asked looking at the scene in front of herself.

"Heroes give their lives daily kid, not every one of us is immortal. Not every single one of us are capable of getting damage dealt like what you saw and get away with our lives. So, you asking me if you can become a Hero like me... is stupid. It's asking me if you can fight the same villains as the ones, I face every day and get away alive. It's irrational and highly dangerous. So to answer your question like I did earlier. The answer is no." All Might said, standing up and walking over to a nearby door.

"W-What?" Izuku's voice asked, completely broken.

Vanilla had half a mind to manifest herself in the vision and slap All Might in the face. The fact that he put down Izuku's dreams like this, on a rooftop of all places was highly immoral. Not only that, but had he thought better of his words he probably could of made sure that it was let out a fair bit easier.

But all she saw was the man tell a boy to give up his dreams of Heroism. Not only that but do it in such a way that it broke the boy both mentally and emotionally, as the boy held his chest. She could easily see the signs of an emotional and mental panic attack as she moved closer to the Izuku in the vision.

"That was the day I really found out what meeting your Heroes meant." Izuku's voice rang out causing Vanilla to look over at Izuku.

"Izuku, are you alright?" Vanilla asked, rushing over to his Mobian Counterpart.

"I-I'm fine, but I think this is showing me my past. And h-helping me t-try to move p-past it." Izuku said, as Vanilla nodded.

"So, that Emerald that was in your hand... it's showing me your memories?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku nodded.

"I-I think s-so. But we have to wait a-and see." Izuku said, pointing at a bright light.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

As the bright light covered the two's sight of the area, they covered their eyes. All before the light died down and revealed a large building with brick walls and some vines growing on the brick walls. Glancing over at Izuku, she found his little Mobian face slowly growing fearful as the place soon grew a dark aura.

They were soon moved towards a classroom as Vanilla watched from Izuku's third point of view of his day of school before meeting All Might. It just so happened that this day's events leading up to meeting All Might all happened in the course of half an hour before All Might appeared. How Vanilla was getting this information you ask, Izuku's memories provided it to her.

She watched as the day progressed as how Izuku's memories showed her was an everyday normal for him. She watched as the boys teacher for the specific class had entered the room with a bunch of papers in his hands. And then watched him encourage the students in the room to use their quirks before lightly scolding them. Although there was an outlier in terms of personality that she could see right away.

A young man with ash-blonde colored hair stood up on his desk with nothing more than a feral expression on his face. He glared at each of the students, calling out how each and every one of them would be nothing more than D-lister Heroes because of their Quirks. Meanwhile, he'd be the Number 1 Hero who would be far richer, more famous, and powerful than the current Number 1.

All Might.

Everything just had to stem from that man, didn't it?

She watched as the boy talked about how he aced the mock exams with a perfect score. And as she glanced over at Izuku, she could hear what the boy was thinking about in the moment as she heard him mutter to himself.

'I got a near perfect score as well.' The boy mumbled quietly.

Then the teacher encouraged Bakugo's behavior by adding onto the fuel of his ego by talking about the school he wanted to go to. Apparently, there was a school named UA High School that this Bakugo wanted to go to stating that he'd be the only one going there from this dump of a school. At least she found herself agreeing with the boy on that department, the room was filthy.

"Ah, Midoriya. You signed a paper here saying you wanted to go to UA as well, right?" The teacher droned out.

Vanilla could almost hear a pin drop in the room. It was silent as soon as that was stated before the entire room was engulfed in complete laughter and mockery. Mobian Izuku floated down next to the downright furious Rabbit woman as she glared at each and every person in the room with righteous fury.

"T-There's nothing you can d-do about this m-memory." Izuku said, as Vanilla pulled the boy under her chest.

"I know, but that doesn't mean that I have to like it." Vanilla stated as they watched the memory unfold further.

Bakugo, the boy with ash-blonde hair jumped from his seat attacking Izuku immediately as soon as the class finished mocking the boy. Vanilla immediately hugged Izuku tighter into her body as she watched the other boy assault Izuku with nothing more than his super ability. All whilst mocking him for having no power within that world and still wishing to become a Hero.

Whilst everyone including the Bakugo boy saw it as a complete mockery of the Hero life. Vanilla herself found herself a little bit inspired by the boy in this memory. He was doing everything he could in order to become a Hero, even if he wasn't training his body he was training his mind. And she would know, the mind is more powerful than the body.

Soon the day would end, after some explosive beatings that Bakugo would give Izuku, something that she held him tighter whilst it happened. All before the blonde moved to leave the room as she heard something she greatly hoped that Izuku didn't want to do anymore.

"You know, there is a way you might be able to become a Hero. Just pray you get a quirk in your next life and jump off the roof!" Bakugo said, as he laughed as he left the room.

Vanilla's expression went from righteous rage to a calm fury. She clearly hadn't expected the boy to fall to such a low in his emotional, mental and physical abuse towards her surrogate son. But here he was, showing his true nature to the boy as she looked down at Izuku to see the boy crying.

This memory was a bit too much for him to handle. So just as the bright light was entering their view, she closed both of their eyes before projecting a calming aura around them both.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

They were now in a location that seemed to project a save environment to Vanilla. She glanced around the room to see multiple photos of Izuku's previous family.

Until she saw what the place really looked like. As she glanced around the room and really looked at it, she found that it was a pigsty in how cluttered it was. Alcohol bottles were laid all around the place as a very short but plump woman sat on the couch nearby. She held one of the bottles in her hand as she drank it whilst looking at the news.

The woman barely gave Izuku a momentary glance before focusing on her drink. Something that Vanilla felt was not a safe thing to do around a child who had a very bad day of school and in general. So as soon as the boy walked into the hallway, oddly as silent as possible, she heard the woman speak.

"Izuku, what are you doing?" The woman's tone of voice asked, very darkly.

"J-Just c-changing my c-clothes... mom." The boy replied... in a very fearful tone.

"D-Don't tell me... e-even your home w-wasn't safe?" Vanilla asked, placing a gloved hand over her mouth.

"D-Do you r-really want me t-to say?" Izuku asked, looking up at her through her breasts blocking his view.

Before Vanilla could even respond to it, they heard the sound of a crash and a hiss of pain as they saw the woman using her quirk on the boy. Vanilla could feel the boy under her slowly begin to tremble as he breathed slowly to try and calm his raging heartbeat. And they could do nothing but watch as the boy's human mother, someone who was supposed to love and protect him.

Do something that a mother shouldn't do. She used her quirk to break the boy's bones, softly at first before a loud crack as Izuku's mouth opened up to scream before the mouth snapped shut. Vanilla watched on in horror as Izuku's voice in the memory became muffled by his own mouth as he screamed in agony.

What made it worse for Vanilla was how the mother snapped the bones back into place without a single blemish on the boy's skin being revealed. Then after that was done, she watched as the boy on the ground trembled in pain, tears falling from his eyes as he did his best to crawl away from the woman.

"Don't think that you can get out of doing chores for tonight Izuku. By the time I get back from work, I expect the house to be spotless." The woman's voice growled before leaving.

Leaving behind a crying boy on the ground as his body curled up into a ball. Tears falling through clenched eyes and a trembling body as Vanilla pulled Izuku into a hug.

"I'm so sorry that your human mother never treated you kindly." Vanilla whispered into his ear.

"I-I know... d-don't l-let go." Izuku's voice whimpered in a silent tone.

As if to add further salt into his metaphorical wounds, it showed the day that he was transferred from his world into Mobius. The boy had a far happier smile on his face, but that was just a mask on his face from what Vanilla could now see. The boy had a small bruise on his wrist, that she could barely make out from how he was running down the road. An explosion happened nearby.

Looking over at the area where a wall was broken apart, he found that there was a civilian laying under some rubble as he rushed over to them before his mind could even process what was happening. Pulling the rubble off the civilian, he found that the man was bleeding from his head as Izuku managed to pull them out.

"Y-Young man, w-what are you doing h-here?" The older man asked.

"I'm here to get you out of here!" Izuku said, with a small grin.

"Well, keep yourself hidden! There're villains in the building!" The older fellow said, as Izuku hauled the man to the street and called for paramedics and Heroes.

"How many villains are inside the building sir?" Izuku asked, as the man coughed.

"T-There should b-be around 5 Villains. B-But you should r-really be focused on the one in front o-of you." The older fellow said, as he grunted in pain.

"W-What are you talking about? There's nobody in front of me." Izuku said, before the older fellow's face became a sneer.

"I always love messing with the righteous ones!" The older fellow said, as he placed all five of his fingers on Izuku's chest.

Izuku had only a few moments to think about what was happening before the effects of a quirk activated. Vanilla then watched as a portal appeared in front of Izuku that sucked him inside of it tearing his body apart. Leaving just a bloody smear on the ground and a yellow backpack on the ground with his red shoes clattering to the ground as well.

Vanilla stared at the scene in horror as she felt Izuku tremble even more in her grasp.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

All before the vision in front of them faded and they were returned back into his bedroom back on Mobius. The two were now heavily panting and sweating very harshly before Vanilla grabbed the Emerald and placed it in a small container.

"We... are not... touching that... again." She muttered, as she glanced at Izuku.

The boy was not faring much better than her, but he'd long since pulled his legs into his chest as he began to hyperventilate. Sitting down next to him, and lowering her own heart rate, she pulled her stepson into her hip as she hugged her from the side. His pupil's small and fearful as he trembled in her hold.

Rubbing his head softly, she hummed a soft tune as she felt him slowly calm down. She continued doing this until she heard his breathing even out as nothing was stated between them both. Looking down she soon found that his body was now limp in her side as she pulled him over into her chest and laid down on his bed.

He'd need someone to stay with him tonight as she looked out the window to see it dark outside already. Looking at the door to Izuku's bedroom, she found Cream standing there with confusion writ on her features.

"Mommy, what happened? Why is big brother crying?" Cream asked, as Vanilla thought about her answer.

"Big brother... had a panic attack. And mommy was planning on sleeping next to him to help him sleep better tonight. Think you can ask Gemerl to make breakfast in the morning?" Vanilla asked, as Cream nodded.

"Of course, mother! What's in that box?" She asked, pointing at the box near the two.

"Don't touch it!" Vanilla called out, before grabbing it and hiding it inside Izuku's drawer.

"I-Is something w-wrong mommy?" Cream asked.

"J-Just don't touch it o-okay?" Vanilla asked, as Cream nodded with understanding.

"C-Can I lay down with you and big brother too after telling Gemerl?" Cream asked, as Vanilla nodded.

"Izuku will need both of our presence tomorrow morning." Vanilla said, as Cream smiled happily and rushed off.

Focusing back on Izuku, Vanilla hugged Izuku's face tighter into her chest as he hugged her tight as well. She rubbed his back as she covered the blanket over them both before watching Cream move over to the bed with her own blanket. Climbing on top of the bed, she laid down next to them before hugging Izuku from behind and happily sighing.

"Don't worry Izuku, we'll protect your dreams." Vanilla said, softly into his ear giving his forehead a small kiss.

Chapter Text

"Bargain... accepted." He said, as their palms connected.

A very sinister smirk on Lord X's face had grown before he was blasted out of Midoriya Izuku's head as he found himself in the void once more. Looking around for a few minutes, he eventually used the coordinates that the bunny boy had given him to search for his next meal. He soon appeared high in the Galaxy for Izuku's Home Universe.

Licking his lips he found himself slowly heading towards the small planet of dirt and water that was called Earth. Manifesting himself in the form of Sonic the Hedgehog, he landed on the ground within Musutafu Sacred Forest. Taking a deep breath through his decaying nose, he retched at how bad the air quality of this world was.

"To think that the boy could live in a world such as this. Now then, let's see what I can do about this world... HAHAHAHAHA!" Lord X said, before ending in a haunting laugh.

(Play video for the laugh :3)

Turning invisible, Lord X walked through the forest until he reached civilization. Walking amongst the crowds of Musutafu he came across multiple scenes where Heroes were abandoning their post as Heroes. Apparently, more than a few months have passed since Izuku came to Sonic's world.

Chuckling to himself whilst being invisible, Lord X continued to watch each and every person in this world. Laughing loudly causing those around him to become scared as well as confused when they felt his laugh all around themselves. It was here that he came upon a scene that made him wonder where the True Heroes were.

There was a young man being attacked and held hostage by a villain. The person held a gun to the young man's head as they screamed profanities towards everyone else. Lord X was mentally prepared to just let the person die before he decided to take on the form of Izuku's human state.

Green curly hair appeared on his head, all before his height changed from around 4'11 up to around 5'5. His musculature had gone from almost none to nonexistent, as his eyes remained their blackened crimson colors. Walking towards the scene of the crime, he reached a hand out towards the person who was holding the young man as a hostage.

The villainous man was lifted into the air so fast, that he got whiplash. All before he was hauled in as a small gust of air was blasted through his stomach causing the man to cough up blood. Lord X used Izuku's body to smirk at the villain with sadistic glee. All before the two disappeared from sight, almost as though this whole event never happened.

The villain, however, only could see darkness as bloody words appeared in his vision.

"W-What the fuck is going on!? W-What happened to the city!?" The man called out angrily. "What's that?" He asked, before looking at the bloody words plastered on a nearby blackened wall.

'Want to play a game?'

"Fuck this!" The villain said, trying to find a way to escape the area.

All before he was dropped high into the sky above the area he had been holding a hostage. He let out fearful screams of terror as he glanced out of the corner of his eye to find a boy with green hair and crimson-colored pupils and sclera that was black in color. For some reason his mind supplied that this boy was the cause for him to be this high in the sky.

And something else about this boy caused him to be downright fearful of them. Call him crazy, but he thinks that whatever that boy is... the human side of them is long gone and then the person spoke.

"You might want to hurry to the ground. If you don't make it there before I get you, I will kill you." The boy stated, as the man immediately pointed himself towards the ground in fear.

As the man flew as fast as he could towards the ground, he was just about to slam onto the ground before an unseen force stopped him. He floated in the air for a moment as sweat fell from his head to the ground as he felt his heart rate increase tenfold. Looking around the area, he searched for the force that had been chasing him all before they appeared in front of him.

Their position in front of him had them extending their arms far over their head and back before their head faced their face. All before smiling with such decayed and yellow teeth that made him want to retch.

"You lose." The voice said, before he felt his internal organs push out of each hole in his body.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

It's been a few weeks since Lord X had taken his first villain kill. He couldn't help but laugh at it each time he thought about it as he glanced over at the pile of bodies in front of himself. Staring at each person who arrived to him over the last few weeks made him chuckle at how they tried to defeat him.

He was an eldritch entity from beyond their world and understanding. He'd already killed those smart enough to pose a threat to himself, and all that remained was children. He had long since taken over all of Japan with just his mere presence alone, and he smirked at all the women that were nearby.

Some of them had white fluids coming out of their orifices, and he smirked at the latest woman who was brought to him. She had short brown hair that had bangs hanging from the sides of her face and a hopeful expression when she first arrived. The girl wasn't accepted into the Hero School of her dreams but had come here to seek a place to live.

Poor thing had been abandoned by their parents as soon as she failed getting into the Hero School of her dreams. So ever since she had arrived at his door, he'd just used her as a seedbed for future usage. He'd also kidnapped a fair few women from the Hero School that she had wanted to go to in order to use them all as seedbeds.

"Such little souls, so much time to play. But with that, my deal with the boy is complete... however... I guess I should send over a gift. This is extremely fun, fighting people with Superpowers is a great game. I haven't had this much fun since I fought Sonic in his own mindscape." Lord X said, before looking at a nearby Hero held captive.

"YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS YOU FIEND! YOUR TREACHERY WILL NOT CONTINUE!" The familiar voice said, as Lord X looked over at the man.

"Ah, the infamous man who broke a child's dreams. How does it feel to know that the boy who you had sentenced basically to death itself, had forsaken this world in order to protect another from me?" Lord X questioned.

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT! LET ME OUT SO I MAY BRING JUSTICE TO YOU!" The Hero growled as he struggled to pull apart mettalic bars.

"You wouldn't happen to recognize a boy who looks like me, do you?" Lord X questioned changing his form to Izuku's body.

The Hero remained silent as he tried to gather everything, he could remember from around a few months to a year prior to this. But he was drawing a blank as so many things had happened in that time that he couldn't remember causing the dreams of a boy to be crushed.

"I have no idea what you're talking about fiend, but I will deliver justice if it's the last thing I do!" The man growled as he struggled to break through his chains and mettalic prison.

"So you don't recognize this body, his name is Midoriya Izuku. The child of Midoriya Inko, a boy with green curly hair, emerald green eyes, and four freckles on his face cheeks." Lord X said, as he spoke about Izuku.

"What have you done to that boy!" The Hero growled as he struggled to escape his prison.

"I am just using his body, his mind, as well as his strategies in order to take down you pitiful Heroes. I even took out your hundred years long nemesis, All for One." Lord X said, pulling out the potato headed man's skull.

"W-What?! N-No way, I killed him myself 6 years ago!" The man growled as he stopped struggling.

"It's true that the injury you gave the man was a killing blow, but he managed to survive. You'd be surprised how easy it was to kill this man. He spouted about being the most powerful human on the planet but was felled by a single attack from me. He was weak, pitiful, just like you." Lord X said, before swiping his hand at the hero.

A choking sound was heard from the man before his body fell to the ground. A head tumbled out of the prison area as Lord X reached down to grab the head itself. It was covered in shadow's before we spin around Lord X as he reveals the head of Yagi Toshinori| All Might. The man's eyes were wide open in shock before they slowly closed before a wooden spike impaled the head completely.

"It's so much fun to see the fear on their faces. Now then, I think it's high time I destroyed this planet." Lord X said, before looking at the brown-haired girl. "But what do I do with you?" Lord X asked, with a tilt of his head.

The girl looked up at him, her stomach had been inflated a tiny bit to reveal that she was pregnant of at least 1 month. He then decided with a large growing smile on his face that he'd do Midoriya Izuku a solid and bring this girl to Mobius. So that the two can live together and raise his child and possibly give him a small polyamorous relationship.

After all, one can't be too happy with a life of strife and have it been completed with only one woman giving you affection. That boy needs at least two lovers.

"Now though, what kind of Mobian would you be? Hm... I know! You shall be known as Ochako the Squirrel." Lord X said, with a smile on his face.

Using his magical power over the universe, he began to rapidly change the girl's body. She shrunk in size as well as lost her human features... but she kept all the curves of her 15-year-old body. Smiling at the prize he'd made for Midoriya Izuku, he used the remnants of his power to send the girl to Mobius.

Looking at the incoming Heroes down the street he let out a massive laugh that permeated the entire city that had once been Musutafu.

(Play Video Here! :3)

Once that happened, the Heroes who were coming for him were all suddenly teleported to a different area. They all stood in the forest that belonged to the Wildlife reserve for Musutafu, Shizuoka Prefecture Japan. Looking around their area, they heard Lord X's voice ring out from all angles as he spoke to them in a tone demanding that they listen.

"I have been here for no longer than a month. And I have grown bored with you Heroes fighting me, so I will be destroying the planet. But before I do that... I will kill everyone who lives on this pitiful planet before I destroy it. You have 15 seconds for you to hide and save yourselves from the potential death I will give you." Lord X said, before his signature laugh could be heard reverberating all across the World.

We fly through the entire forest until we find Izuku Midoriya's body standing still at the entrance for the forest. His body twitching and glitching out before his head stared at the screen whilst manifesting a kitchen knife in his hand. A sick and sadistic smile on his face showing off decaying flesh and teeth as he stared at those reading.

"Let the Survival Game... Begin." Lord X said, before slowly walking into the forest with a very smug expression on his face.

Chapter Text

Izuku was moving throughout the house of the Rabbit family, he had been very happy to see that Vanilla had accepted him into their home without any kind of problems. Her love and care towards him had made him actually reveal some things about himself with her, ranging from his bullying to his homelife in his world. She had been understanding and told him that he would need to get therapy sessions in order to heal from the damage mentally done by his peers.

Over the next few weeks after the two had found that weird looking emerald in his drawer, they had grown closer as a parent and child. Although for Izuku, he was the adopted child within the family, and he couldn't be any happier with the life he was currently living at the moment. As he moved through the house as he gathered some things to prepare for his first outing as what he believed could earn himself some rings for the Rabbit Family. His singing.

He'd never sang for others before, so his heart was thumping as he prepared himself mentally for this. He had originally only sung for those who were around to hear him using his guitar to sing but this was going to be a first for himself in terms of singing for others who wanted to hear him. Izuku had already chosen a song he wanted to sing, and it was something from before the Quirk Era, a song from a song artist going by the name of Nickelback... before the man lost his fans.

As Izuku continued to gather his things to set out for his little outing, he heard something thump outside the house. Walking around the building and heading to the back door, he found something very odd that was laying on the ground. It was a couple of weird looking Emeralds, similar to the one in his drawer in size and appearance although the colors of these were not the same as the one in his room... aside from one that was a darker color.

Using his gloved hand to pick the item up, he glanced around the known area as he thought about what to do. Shaking his head at the thought of hiding these from everyone, Vanilla had already seen the one in his room, so he might as well just keep the rest of these with the rest of those Emeralds. Gathering them up in his gloved hands, he ignored the feeling of power that was coursing through his body as he deposited them in the very same box as the light blue colored emerald. Nodding at the gems hidden in his little box, he locked it tight before hiding it in a floorboard of his bedroom before grabbing his guitar.

He really didn't want to go on another memory jump either on his own or with Vanilla again. They had gotten closer because of it, but he knew that she wasn't going to be prepared for if they had to go on another of those memory rides again. Taking a deep breath, he left the room and locked the door behind him before placing the key under his carpet just outside of the bedroom and walked down the hall once more before arriving in the living room to find Vanilla smiling at him.

"You ready for your little play?" She asked, with a small smile.

"A-As ready as I-I'll ever b-be." Izuku replied as Vanilla smiled at him before pulling him into a hug.

"Well then, shall we head out so you can earn yourself some more fans?" Vanilla questioned as she brought Izuku out of the house.

Gemerl and Cream were standing by the car with Chocola and Cheese as the two Chao were happily flying around the bunny girl. Izuku gave the girl a pat on the head as the small family climbed into the rabbit woman's vehicle and drove off to the area where everyone was preparing a stage for the boy to sing at. What they were all unaware of, however, was a large portal that had Sonic's color scheme appearing inside the living room of their home with a girl being deposited from it onto the couch... as naked as the day she was born.

The drive from where they lived all the way to the Freedom Fighter's base of operations was a quiet one. Izuku was looking out into the distance as the vehicle drove through the streets of multiple cities as well as small towns. They all said hello to the inhabitants of Mobius as they all thanked Izuku and Cream for assisting their rescue from Eggman's latest attack on them all as the green bunny had just lowered his head at their praise. Cream took in all the praise as she happily waved back at them and thanked them for the praise.

Vanilla saw the more docile nature Izuku had with his peers, but at the same time she saw how he wasn't very fond of the whole... complementing he got. He had shown her from his memories that he never was given a compliment, and that whenever someone showed him kindness, he was very wary of what they wanted from him. It wasn't outright stated by the boy, but his actions spoke more than his words from how he was raised and abused by his peers.

"So when do you want to start having your therapy sessions?" Vanilla asked, looking at Izuku with a glance for a moment.

"C-Can we do i-it next w-week?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla smiled at him.

"I'm sure that we can have Vector get some time set up for next week." Vanilla said, as Izuku nodded.

"V-Vector... h-he's the crocodile Mobian... r-right?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla nodded.

"Yes, he's the one who I've been seeing as of late. It's so nice to see such a strong man be such a sweetheart." Vanilla said, with a forlorn sigh.

"S-Sorry about your... previous love." Izuku said, as Vanilla shrugged at him.

"What's done is done, I can't change the past." Vanilla said, as they closed in on the base for the Freedom Fighters.

Looking at the large base in the side of a mountain was jarring at first when Izuku had first arrived. But at the same time, he had grown used to it as they all entered the place to find Amy and Tails arguing with one another like an old married couple. The young bunny boy didn't know what they were talking about, but he felt as though he shouldn't be listening to them as he moved backstage as he pulled up some lyrics that he'd managed to collect from his world. Don't ask how he managed this, just know that he did it before he went to take the Entrance Exam for UA.

Shadow and most of the other Freedom Fighters were sitting in the stands as they looked at the stage. He glanced over at Vanilla as the giant woman of a rabbit sat down next to him as he opened a singular eye as he sat upright.

"Vanilla." Shadow said, before Vanilla acknowledged his presence.

"Shadow, it's been a while since we last saw one another." Vanilla said, as she smiled at him.

"Yeah, I did something stupid during the whole Metal Virus thing... thankfully it wasn't permanent." Shadow said, before placing his arms behind his head.

"Be lucky that Sonic and Silver managed to save everyone, your actions could've caused everyone to fall into Eggman's hands." Vanilla said, as Shadow imperceptibly flinched but regained his calm exterior.

"I know, I have been thinking about how I can improve myself anyway. But that is to be seen later on, how is your relationship with Vector?" Shadow questioned as Vanilla looked at him in shock.

"You know about our relationship?" She asked, as Shadow nodded.

"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that that crocodilian has feeling for you. But just know that you should keep yourself safe at all times, that crocodile has a lot of enemies who'd love to take out those he is close with." Shadow said before sitting upright and watching what was happening below them.

"I certainly hope so as well. Just, don't tell Cream about it right now." Vanilla asked, as Shadow gave a nod.

Down on the stage Izuku was seen setting up his guitar so that the song could be heard by everyone inside the base. Amy and Tails could be seen sitting next to one another as they watched Izuku set himself up as he muttered to himself about trying to prepare himself mentally for this moment. Cream and her Chao's were watching with a happy expression next to Shadow's left as he did his very best to not appear annoyed by their presence. Vector soon arrived as he sat down next to Vanilla as he placed an arm around her giving the rabbit woman a side hug.

"Hey there Vanilla! What brings you here?" Vector asked, winking at her.

"That was so bad, anyway I'm here with Izuku and Cream. We're going to see if Izuku can sing in front of a crowd." Vanilla said, as Vector gained a confused expression.

"Your boy can sing? I didn't know you had a son." Vector said, surprised.

"He's adopted, well... more like a recent adoption." Vanilla said, as Vector nodded.

"I see, you picked him up from the streets?" Vector asked, as Vanilla just sighed.

"You could say that, now let's watch Izuku. And please be quiet." Vanilla said, in a low tone.

As the entire crowd entered the room where the play was going to happen, they watched as Izuku finalized his preparations. Vanilla could only feel a small smile appearing on her face as she watched Izuku fumble about before finally taking some breathing exercises that she'd taught him a week prior. She'd seen how he could get himself worked up from just fumbling around, through that she'd learnt that he was a bit of a Clutz when it came to setting things up.

By the time Izuku was fully prepared, he had finally looked up to see what kind of crowd he was gaining. And his face went straight into a little bit of fear seeing all the Mobians and some humans who had come here to hear someone sing. His mind was bringing up second thoughts about singing for others as he felt like he couldn't breathe for a moment, following Vanilla's exercises once more he calmed his heart as he began to mess with his guitar.

Once it was prepared to be used, he pulled the microphone to his position as he sat on a stool. Fixing the microphone's height compared to his own height he managed to speak to those who had come here today.

"H-Hello! I hope that I'm not d-disturbing your day. I-I just hope that y-you all enjoy the song that I'm going to sing today. It's from an artist that is from a world I come from, his artist's name was Nickelback... and I will be singing my favorite song from him today. S-So without f-further ado... Let's begin!" Izuku said, his face becoming determined.

[] [] [] >w< [] [] []

Izuku had started out his song with a small entrance of a guitar, and someone behind him started up the drums as well. All before a second after he'd started with his guitar, he sang towards the ground.

I am so high, I can hear heaven.
I am so high, I can hear heaven.
But heaven, no
but heaven, no, don't
hear me!

And they say that
a hero can save us I'm
not gonna stand here
to wait.

I'll hold onto the
wings of the Eagles,
watch as they all fly
away!

After singing the end of the chorus with the guitar and drums beating hard with the crowd. Everyone was nodding their head softly, even Tails and Amy were enthralled with the song that was being sung by Izuku... and with Vanilla, Cream and her Chao's, and Vector they all watched as Izuku's body shined green.

Someone told me,
Love would
all save us

But how can that
be? When look
what love gave us...

A world full of killing,
blood spilling, that
would never of came!

And they say that
a hero can save us I'm
not gonna stand here
to wait.

I'll hold onto the
wings of the Eagles,
watch as they all fly
away!

Ahhhhhhhh!

The guitar and drum solo moved higher now as Izuku played as hard as he could to convey what he was singing further. The crowd had long since stopped being silent and were cheering for the bunny boy as he continued to play the guitar with the drums being beat behind him. All before he sang once more catching the crowd's attention by how quiet had had become now that he had stopped singing so loudly... as the music built up to his whispering voice.

Now that the world
isn't ending, it's love
that I'm sending to
you!

It isn't the love of a
hero, and that's why
I fear it won't do

As soon as Izuku said the last part of the verse the music then began to build back up to it's climax as Izuku continued to sing with all his heart. The drums and guitar blaring out loud enough for them to be heard under his voice, but not enough to completely shut it out.

And they say that
a hero can save us I'm
not gonna stand here
to wait.

I'll hold onto the
wings of the Eagles,
watch as they all fly
away!

And there
watching us
(Watching us)

There watching us
(Watching us)

As we all fly
away!

As the music in the background of the song began to slow down from it's climax and reach it's end. Izuku began to repeat the last few verses of the songs.

And there
watching us
(Watching us)

There watching us
(Watching us)

As we all fly
away!

Oh, yeaahe aha!

And there
watching us
(Watching us)

There watching us
(Watching us)

As we all fly
away!

Woaah...

When Izuku reached the final word of his song, the music then began to die down for the boy. He looked at the crowd as he began to pant from having to sing a three-minute song that he'd decided to sing for the crowd of the Freedom Fighters. The crowd were staring at him in awe before he felt himself get a little self-conscious before he heard someone from the crowd shout out at the young bunny.

"Can you sing us another song!?" "Yeah! We'd like to hear another!" "Encore!" The crowd called out as Izuku stared at everyone in confusion.

"U-Um what?" Izuku asked, eyes wide.

"Izuku sing another song! One from the same artist!" Vanilla called out, as Izuku thought about another song.

"N-Nickelback wasn't very famous after he lost his fans." Izuku said, looking concerned and worried.

"We want another song!" The group called out.

"O-Okay, but... it'll be a sad song in my eyes though." Izuku said, as the crowd happily let out screams of elation.

Izuku then looked at the drummer and began to play his guitar. He knew he could play the song without the drummer and allowed them to get a little break, so before he began to play another song, he drank some water that was right next to him.

Well, I know the
feeling
Of finding
yourself stuck out
on the ledge

And there ain't
no healing
From cutting
yourself on the
jagged edge

I'm telling you that,
it's never that bad,
take it from
someone who's been
where you're at

Laid out on the
floor,
And your not
sure, you can take
this anymore

So just give it
one more try to
a lullaby
And turn this up
on the radio!

And if you can hear me
now
I'm reaching out
To let you know
that you're not alone!

And you can't tell,
I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you
on the
telephone

So just close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Oh, honey
here comes a lullaby,
your very own lullaby

Please let me
take you
Out of the
darkness and
into the light

'Cause I have
faith in you
That you're gonna
make it through
another night

Stop thinking about
the easy way out,
There's no need to
go and blow
the candle out

Because you're not
done,
your far too young
And the best is yet
to come

So just give it
one more try to
a lullaby
and turn this up
on the radio

If you can hear me
now,
I'm reaching out
to let you know
that you're not alone!

And if you can't tell,
I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get
you on the
telephone

So just close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Oh, honey here
comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby

Once the chorus of the song is over once more, everyone had tears in their eyes as they watched as Izuku's voice became soft once more. The music moved along with him, staying in a soft tone as it slowly began to build back up to the crescendo into a new climax again.

Well,
everybody's hit
the bottom,
Everybody's been
forgotten,

When
everyone's tired
of being alone.
Yeah, everyone's
feeling abandoned

And left a little
empty handed,
So if you're out
barely there
hanging on...

Just give it
one more try to a
lullaby
And turn this
up on the radio

If you can hear me
now
I'm reaching out
to let you know
that you're not alone

And if you can't tell,
I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get
you on the
telephone

So just give it
one more try to
a lullaby
and turn this up
on the radio

If you can hear me
now,
I'm reaching out
to let you know
that you're not alone!

And if you can't tell,
I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get
you on the
telephone

So just close your eyes (Close your eyes)
Oh, honey here
comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby

Oh, honey here
comes a lullaby
Your very own lullaby

As Izuku sang the last part of the song, he felt his breath leaving his mouth in small bursts. Looking up at the crowd he found that most of them were showing their love towards the music by throwing their arms in the air and cheering him on. He let out a small smile on his face as he looked over at Vanilla who smiled at him, but he could see that in her eyes that there was concern behind them... but she wouldn't voice them right now. Looking to Cream and her Chao's, they were smiling at him and extremely excited as they happily waved at him, along with Gemerl standing next to her nodding his head.

"T-Thank you all f-for coming here! I-I didn't think that a-anyone would like to hear m-me sing. S-So I hope you all have a good r-rest of your day!" Izuku said, stuttering through his words.

As Izuku left the stage, he gathered his belongings before he felt a presence land behind himself. He froze in place before he felt two objects land on his back, their soft and round nature clueing him in on who this was as he gulped slightly before turning his head to take in their appearance. That was before a mouth was seen right next to one of his overly large ears as a feminine voice spoke in his ear, one that was seductive and familiar.

"Well~ leave it to you, to make my heart twinge in happiness. I thought that you'd never leave that house~" Rouge the Bat whispered in his ear.

This solicited the reaction that she had been wanting, as somehow... Izuku's face became an erupted mess of red colors. All before his eyes became swirls, but he stayed awake as Rouge continued her speech in his ear as she sensually moved her gloved hands across his smaller frame.

"Mm~ You are definitely packing somewhere.~" Rouge said, before blowing wind into his ear.

The feeling of her voice and breath moving through his head set an immediate effect causing him to fall onto his back. The swirls were still in his eyes, but he was completely unconscious with a dopy grin on his face as his left leg kicked out in a small twitch as Rouge smirked at her work all before picking the bunny boy up. Placing him on her shoulder, she smiled as she wrapped his guitar over her generous bust before walking towards the exit where Vanilla and the others were waiting for her. Walking through the door, she saw Vanilla look in her direction before letting out an exasperated sigh as she moved towards the Vampire Bat woman.

"One of these day's you're going to give him a heart attack. Just make sure that you treat him well when you eventually tell him." Vanilla said, as Rouge smirked.

"A lady never tells another who she likes. 'Specially not me. But I will take your advice to heart, I want to tell him how I feel but think this isn't the time." Rouge said, waving her hand at the Rabbit mother.

"Well spend some time with him at the house, you are welcome there whenever you want." Vanilla said, patting Rouge's head.

With the two separating, and Izuku inside Vanilla's vehicle, with Cream looking at him with concern. The Rabbit family left with Vector hitching a ride from Vanilla to get back home since he had somehow walked all the way here in order to hear Izuku sing. As they all drove off into the distance, a portal of purple and red origin had appeared on a nearby hill as something was spat out of it, they landed on the ground with deft skills. Looking around their certain area, they took in their surroundings finding a small town not too far away before they closed their eyes sensing energies.

"They came back to this world again, I swear Sonic better not have forced them to appear here." A feminine looking Mobian said, as she pulled out a box.

Inside said box were empty spaces where what appeared to be emeralds were supposed to be sitting. They were square in nature, and there was 7 spaces missing their respective emerald to complete the box itself. Looking at the car zooming off into the distance, she felt the energy of the sleeping boy and found that it was similar to the energies of the emeralds she was searching for. Her feline face became slightly angered at how he had them before she schooled her features, she didn't wish to come across as rude. She just needed to go to where she sensed his energy and ask for him to give them back.

"Hey, so you know this is the place where I live right?" A familiar voice asked.

"Sonic, I know that you live here. So do what you wish, I have a job to do." The feminine cat said, as she rushed in the direction of Vanilla and her family.

Chapter Text

The drive back to the house was quiet but peaceful for the Rabbit Family. After they had dropped off Vector at his home, he bade his farewells as he entered his apartment complex allowing the Rabbit Family to drive home. As Vanilla and Cream were talking to one another animatedly about Izuku's potential as a professional singer, Izuku himself was thinking about what he should do about Rouge.

The Vampire Bat Mobian had been getting more and more seductive towards him as of late. And he clearly didn't know about what love and crushes were since he'd never met a girl who was similar to Rouge who gave him these feelings in his heart. Shaking his head away from those thoughts, he thought back to those weird emeralds that had arrived at Vanilla's home just a few days prior. The fact that their presence caused him to take a deep dive into his memories was concerning.

Not only that, but they clearly could empower him if he decided to let their power overwhelm him. Thinking back on it now, he supposed that they were some kind of powerful stone that could give him far more power than he could ever desire... but even then he didn't wish to use them. Looking at the city coming into view as they took a road to get off and away from the bustling city, he watched as the trees passed by the Rabbit vehicle. A small smile entering his expression as he felt nature completely surround him.

Within a few minutes they had finally returned home as Vanilla and Cream were animatedly still talking. Opening the door, they entered the dark house as they turned on the lights to the living room before pausing frozen in shock. Izuku was about to walk up behind them when Vanilla had placed a palm at his chest before looking him in the eye with concern.

"Izuku, I need you to stay out here for a few minutes alright?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku tilted his head.

"Is something wrong?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla gave him a pleading expression.

"It's not something you should place yourself in the center of. I need you to go explore around the forest, make sure that there isn't any badniks anywhere." Vanilla said, holding the door shut behind her.

"Are you sure you don't need my help?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla nodded. "Okay, I-I guess I can go take a-a look around." Izuku said, walking towards the forest.

With that, Vanilla entered the house once more to take a gander at what her daughter had come across. Cream was looking over the human girl with worry on her expression, and she glanced up at her with nothing more than confusion as well as worry before asking her a question she knew was coming.

"Mommy, what is that white stuff coming out of her petal?" Cream asked, as Vanilla sighed.

"It's something that you'll find out when your older okay?" Vanilla said, giving her daughter a pleading look.

"Okay mother! Do you want me to start making dinner with you?" Cream asked, completely bouncing around the room softly.

"Sure thing Cream. Just make sure to not be too noisy." Vanilla said, as she picked up the naked girl.

"Yay!" Cream said, rushing off.

Vanilla sighed to herself as she walked towards the spare bedroom in the house that Izuku helped her create a month prior. They had expected that some people could come over and stay the night as they loved hanging around Cream and the other children. Not only that, but Vanilla was kind of hoping to adopt another child from those who had been orphaned due to Eggman's whole idea of taking over the world through the Metal Virus.

She growled to herself silently as she laid the young girl on the bed as she helped cover her body. She clearly was not in the right state of mind due to how her very... lewd expression on her face was showing, or she had been taken advantage of by someone or something recently. But there was a very major problem that Vanilla had noticed about the girl in front of her, she'd never seen the girl before and was very concerned about where she popped out of in order to get into her home.

There was no signs of breaking into the house, so the girl couldn't have been a thief. That job was gifted directly to Rouge what with her love of gems and many of the other emeralds around the world. But from how she saw the bruises on the girl's form, she was very much hoping that the girl wasn't abused both physically and sexually since she would probably suffer from PTSD episodes. As she continued to watch over the sleeping girl, Cream entered the room with some food and tea on a small plate as Gemerl had entered with her as well.

They worried over the sleeping girl as they focused on the task at hand, keeping Izuku away from the girl for the moment.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Izuku moved through the forest as he took in the peace of the nature living not far from where they all lived. He smiled at all the flickies and animals that moved about the place looking for a new place to sleep or play with one another. He sat down underneath a tree as he pushed his back against the trunk of it as he sighed in relief, finally he was safe and there was nothing that could stop him from taking a nap without anyone interrupting him.

As his eyes fluttered closed, the animals of the forest took their places near him as they rested next to him. His gentle aura as he slept, allowed the animals who were fearful of him at the start when they first saw him gave them the courage to move closer to him and sniff his sleeping form. And as they began to play with one another around his legs, using them as a jungle gym, a butterfly fluttered in the air as it made its way over towards him before it landed on his little nose.

As it softly landed on his nose, his brows scrunched up a little before he went back into his deep slumber. The butterfly noticed his movement before it decided to fly off and began its journey to continue it's own life cycle before something moved past it slowly making their way to the sleeping rabbit. His chest rose and fell as he slept soundly against the tree as the new arrival stood next to him, their tail flicking about left and right before they reached down towards him.

Izuku felt something brushing against his chest before his eyes started to open slowly taking in the new person in front of him. His green eyes revealed themselves to the person in front of him, and the cat stared at him with a neutral expression on their face as they spoke to him now that he was awake.

"Hello there little rabbit. Can you tell me why you have the energy of the Sol Emeralds on your form?" The cat questioned, with a slight tap of her foot.

"U-Um, w-what?" Izuku asked, confused.

"You are bathed in the energy of the Sol Emeralds. I am asking how you managed to have that happen to you, they have never accepted someone other than myself." The cat said, as Izuku tilted his head a little making his ears droop.

"Sol Emeralds? What are they? C-Can you tell me w-what they l-look like?" Izuku asked, slowly becoming worried.

"The Sol Emeralds are what keep the dimension that I come from hidden from all who wish to enter. The only ways you can enter the dimension itself, is either through the Sol Emeralds themselves, or you come near death." The cat said, as Izuku nodded.

"I-I don't know what they l-look like though." Izuku said, as the cat pulled out a box.

Inside the box was seven missing emeralds, but there was something that was very familiar about those spaces for Izuku. They had been in the shapes of squares or rectangles with multiple edges to represent their unusual, edged nature, and it was that which got Izuku to immediately remember those weird emeralds that appeared in his room the other day. Standing up, not too abruptly enough to where the cat in front of him would perceive him as a threat, he dusted himself off.

"I-I think I have come across them. A-A light blue gem appeared in my r-room the other day, and i-it caused a weird mirage to happen in front of me and V-Vanilla-kaasan." Izuku said, as he walked towards the house once again.

"Okay, can you please make sure that you deliver them to me? I'll stay outside whilst you deliver them to me." The cat asked, as she made sure that Izuku was the one in control the entire time.

She didn't wish to make him scared of her and have him run off. Not like he would get very far with how she could sense the energy of the Sol Emeralds on his person, especially since his body practically radiate the power of the Sol Emeralds. Following him to the house where he supposedly lived, she found that it was a nice little home in the woods... not too far away from civilization but enough out of the way that if any attacks happened it wouldn't be too far of a trek to get there to help out.

"W-What is your name b-by the wa-way?" Izuku asked, as the cat nodded at him.

"My name is Blaze. Blaze the Cat... and I'm the princess of the Sol Dimension." She said, as Izuku stared at her in awe.

"I didn't think I'd ever meet another princess before." Izuku muttered to himself, unaware that Blaze heard him.

'Cute.' She thought to herself as Izuku opened the door to the house.

"I-I'll be right b-back, t-they're in my bedroom." Izuku said, as Blaze nodded.

As Izuku entered the house, Blaze moved over to the wall outside of the building as she leaned against it. She heard a commotion inside the house as Izuku's voice raised a little to let whoever else was inside know what he was doing before he showed up at the door again with a small box. Opening it up, Blaze noticed the Sol Emeralds that were all collected inside of it before glancing up at Izuku who was smiling at her with a very happy expression.

"I-I'm so glad that w-we found who these b-belonged to. I-I didn't know w-what to do wi-with them, e-especially after that w-weird memory plane it s-showed me." Izuku said, as Blaze took them back into her possession before pausing.

"Wait, what are you talking about?" Blaze asked, curious.

"T-The light blue e-emerald... it forced m-me to relive m-my memories. T-They weren't that g-good to go t-through again." Izuku said, rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment.

"You can use the Sol Emeralds?" She asked bewildered.

"N-Not that I know o-of. T-They didn't r-really e-empower me... I was forced i-into a memory plane w-when I t-touched the light b-blue one... b-but now that you're here, y-you can take them back." Izuku said, as though he were trying to hurry her out of there.

"Show me." Blaze said, tone neutral.

"W-What!?" Izuku asked, flinching.

"Show me how you used the Sol Emerald." She said, expectantly.

"I-I'd rather not go through that again m-ma'am. S-So can you j-just leave please? Y-You already g-got your emeralds back, I just got back from a very heart r-racing concert." Izuku asked, as Blaze sighed.

"Next time we meet, I will be asking you to use the Sol Emerald in the way that gave you those memories." Blaze said, as Izuku nodded in fear.

Grabbing the emeralds and placing them back in her little box, Blaze took off away from the house in a... blaze of fire. Izuku looked confused by this for a moment before he closed the door and made his way back towards the bedroom where he set his belongings earlier. Just as he was about to enter his bedroom the house's roof was pulled off by a gigantic robot as it immediately grabbed Izuku as he let out a yelp, garnering the attention of Vanilla.

"IZUKU!" Vanilla screamed, as she rushed over to his bedroom.

"VANILLA-SAN!" Izuku screamed as he held out a hand towards the woman.

The two reached out for each other's gloved hands before the robot pulled him away from her. It began to walk away towards the city, as Vanilla screamed in horror at what in the hell had just happened to Izuku, not only did they have a concert that Izuku was emotionally and very physically tired from, but they had another visitor who came for the emeralds that they had found. Pulling her phone from her pocket, she called the Freedom Fighter HQ.

"Freedom Fighter HQ! What can I do for you today ma'am?" A familiar voice rang out.

"DR. EGGMAN HAD JUST KIDNAPPED IZUKU?! GET SONIC AND HIS FRIENDS TO SAVE HIM!" Vanilla practically screamed through the phone.

"Don't worry ma'am we've got Sonic on his way, which direction did Eggman go?" The voice asked, calm but very strained.

"Towards Central City!" Vanilla said, as tears fell from her eyes.

"We'll do everything we can in order to save him ma'am. Just be prepared for the worst to happen." The voice said, as Vanilla nodded her head knowing the person on the other line wouldn't hear.

"J-Just please... make sure that he's safe. He's... he's suffered e-enough." Vanilla said, tears flowing from her eyes.

"Like I said ma'am, we'll do everything we can to save your son." The voice said, as they hung up.

"M-Mother... w-where is big brother?" Cream asked, her chao right behind her.

"B-Big brother was just... k-kidnapped by E-Eggman... why I d-don't know. But know this sweetie... Sonic and his friends are on their way." Vanilla said, as Cream felt hope surge through her body.

"Big brother is strong mother! He'll be sure to escape soon enough!" Cream said, her chao exclaiming this with her.

"What would I ever do without you Cream? Come here." Vanilla said, as she pulled her child into her arms.

Izuku struggled to escape from the gigantic cage that the robot had placed him within. He glared at Eggman as the scientific man happily laughed in his face whilst messing with his bushy mustache.

"Hello little one, it's been a long while since we first met. Get a load of this!" Eggman said, pointing a weird weapon at him.

The weapon glowed ominously at Izuku as a red aura overcame the room. Izuku's face showing bewilderment as well as worry as the laser began to charge even more energy into itself.

Chapter Text

As Izuku stared at the red laser forming in front of his face, he glared at Eggman as the genius glared into his eyes. He pulled the laser gun away as he smirked in Izuku's direction before depositing him into a cage that was designed to take the power slowly from his body. Izuku felt the power within himself slowly begin to be drained as he watched Eggman leave the room that he had placed Izuku inside of as the young bunny searched for a way to get out.

That was when he noticed something off in the corner of the room he was trapped within. Off in the corner, there was blue eyes staring directly at him as Izuku's attention was brought to them... and they looked eerily familiar to him as he focused his eyesight on the person. All before they stepped out of the shadows revealing themselves, it was Sally Acorn... except there was something off about her appearance, her eyes transformed from their blue color to a crimson red... not to dissimilar to Metal Sonic.

"No..." Izuku mumbled in extreme shock. "Please tell me it's not true... Sally." Izuku asked, as he stared at the Chipmunk turned robot.

"I. Serve. Dr.Eggman. Now. Do. Not. Speak. To. Me." The robotic Sally said, as she turned away from him.

"H-How did Eggman g-get you?" Izuku asked, as the robotic form turned and took aim at him with her wrist mounted gun.

"I. Told. You. To. Not. Speak. To. Me." The robot said, as Izuku sat back down.

Sitting back down in his cage, Izuku watched as the robotic version of Sally had gone back into her original position. A charging port that allowed her to recharge their full energy reserves as Izuku sat as his energy was slowly sapped from his body through the cage he was stuck within. As he tried to escape from his miniature prison, he used his Lightning powers to try and break through the mettalic bars only to have that large portion of power he'd been able to use syphoned from his body faster than Sonic could say Chilli Dog.

Left panting and exhausted from having his power used as a charging area, Izuku decided to lay down on the ground. He had become lethargic after multiple tries of escaping from his little cage, that only resulted in having his lightning powers syphoned from his body. So as he decided to rest before he'd get back up later on in order to try another escape plan again, the robotic Sally Acorn glanced at him after she had fully charged up her energy. She watched as the bunny attempted to break free from his little jail cell multiple times over the course of multiple hours of trial and error and stayed silent throughout it all.

Eggman had been using her eyes as a recording device to see how powerful Izuku was. And to see that after about an hour of rest after each and every attempt to escape, he was seemingly back to full power, even with his power being syphoned as he slept. That made Eggman believe that Izuku could be an infinite power source for his new empire that he had been thinking up, all he had to do was keep Izuku hidden from those filthy Freedom Fighters. And once he'd managed to create his empire, he'd finally end the pitiful existence that was Izuku... he may have no soul but that doesn't mean he wishes to see children suffer.

Over time however, Izuku had continued his efforts to escape from the mettalic Lightning syphoning cage. And Izuku was slowly running out of ideas to break free from the cage he was placed within after Eggman had left to take care of something else within his gigantic base of operations. From the looks of everything, in Izuku's perspective at least, nobody was coming to save him... not that he really even thought that nobody would. It was just the hopelessness of the situation that was causing him to think that over what felt like a few days of not being saved by Sonic the Hedgehog... the supposedly fastest thing alive.

Shaking his head at the harsh thoughts towards the Hedgehog, Izuku refocused his efforts to escape from his little prison. And in a case of supremely impossible hysterical strength, he'd powered himself enough that he tore through the metallic bars and leaped through the opening he had created. Landing on the ground in a huff, Izuku looked over at Sally's location within the room... feeling a little sorry for what had originally come of her he stared at her seemingly sleeping state. Walking over to her charging port, he placed a hand on the door of it as he watched her appear to be sleeping.

"I'm sorry that this happened to you... that nobody was there to save you. Sonic would be so sad when he finds out about this." Izuku mumbled as he moved to leave the room.

When he left the room however, the lights within the metallic Sally's body lit up. And watched as the bunny had left the room with alarm on the eye's features before contacting Eggman about the breakout of the boy's prison.

Walking about the Eggman base, Izuku had felt as though eyes were on him at all angles. He kept looking over his shoulder, as a brief flash of Eggman's grin on his face and pointing a laser pistol at him around each corner he made constantly came to the forefront of his mind. Just as he was about to turn around another corner, he found a few badnicks that were just standing around as they scanned the area... that was when Izuku knew that Eggman found out that he'd escaped from his little prison.

So as he took off in the opposite direction of the badnicks, he looked for a way out of the base. But each and every direction he went was as though he were walking through a maze, it was getting nauseating when he found the same pile of broken pieces of rubble nearby that he'd placed down. Turning around another corner again, he suddenly felt a brief flash of mettalic Mobians appear in front of him as his eyes immediately went into hyperdrive mode as he immediately entered a combat stance.

Shaking his head however, it showed him that the Mobians that had been infected with the Metal Virus had just been that... a flash of a memory. Shivering slightly at how he was suddenly having such a harsh memory lapse, he thought of only one thing that could be causing this kind of stress within his head.

PTSD.

Apparently fighting an army of creatures that could tear you limb from limb and infect you with a mere touch causes a lot of mental trauma. Trauma that Izuku had never gotten checked for since he had been at the forefront with Sonic and the other's fighting against the constant hordes of seemingly undead Mobians just roboticized. He continued down the path as it led him to a hangar bay within the base of operations, and hearing some talking from nearby Izuku hid behind some large boxes that were conveniently nearby.

He then listened to whoever was talking to one another as one of the voices were very familiar to him.

"For the last time, I will not be humiliated! Gather your forces and send them after that blasted Team Dark!? I don't need you to come back to me with reports of how close they are to my base! I need results!" Eggman's voice rang out in the room.

"Sorry Eggman, but we just can't defeat them all. There's at least three of them, and one of them is Shadow the Hedgehog!" One of the robots said, it's voice holding no remorse or fear within it just stating facts.

"I don't care about if one of them is Shadow the Hedgehog! Or if the other two are people who used to work with me, kill them or I will dismantle you to create someone who can give me more results!" Eggman said, as he stomped away from the room.

Holding his ears down, Izuku peeked over the boxes he had been hiding behind. He saw Eggman leaving the room as he looked at the robots that had informed Eggman that their mission to stop Team Dark was impossible, they were clones of what appeared to be Omega. Izuku tilted his head at that as he watched the robot clones wilt a little on the outside before moving to follow the genius scientists plan and prepare to head out. Following after them, Izuku hopped onto the back of one of them as they took off through the exit gate of the hangar bay.

And as he flew off towards the direction of what he assumed was Team Dark, he never noticed a blue blur coming towards the base of operations.

>w< >w<

As the flight over to where Team Dark were located had gotten longer, Izuku felt his arms getting tired. He had been holding onto one of the robots for about an hour now and he hadn't had anything to eat in a few days at best. So as he looked at the ground, he let go of one of the robots as it continued to fly over the area/world he was on at the moment before landing on the ground with a grunt and tumbled to the ground.

Shaking his head, he took in his surroundings. He was in the sandy zone that was filled with multiple pyramids in the distance and assumed that Team Dark must have been nearby this place if the robots were coming in this direction. So as he moved forwards, he decided to try and keep pace with the flying robots as they closed in on the Eggman base within the Pyramids in the distance. Why Eggman built a base inside some pyramids, Izuku would never continue to ask just to believe that the man liked having his presence everywhere on Mobius.

As he closed in on the base within the pyramids, Izuku noticed that some of the robots heading for Team Dark had taken notice of his presence. And turning around to head after him, Izuku entered a combat stance in a bid to prepare for a fight against these robots. The first couple of robots had launched at him that he dodged and slid under the first couple of them that sent a robotic arm telegraphing their strike that allowed him to dodge their swift strikes. Ducking under another robotic arm, Izuku grabbed it and spun around in a circle slamming it into it's bretheren and tossing it into a larger group of them as a whole.

Jumping back to avoid some missiles that were blasted from the group of them. Izuku had pulled an arm out and summoned some lightning to arc across his body covering himself in a cowl of sparking electricity as he launched himself at the group of robots. Sliding underneath one of the robots, he slammed his fist upwards blasting the robot upwards into the sky with a loud explosion of force that revealed his location to the other robots that had gotten a bit further away. Turning his attention to the next couple of robots, he swiftly took them down with speed that seemed to be close to Sonic but really wasn't.

As he fought in the small cluster of robots, he never noticed a flying Mobian looking down at him with concern and worry. She flew away before he could take note of their presence as Izuku forced the robots backwards as they slowly began to overwhelm him with their sheer numbers. He slammed his gloved fist into another robot as it exploded in front of him, the pieces of it flying past him as he panted from exhaustion from fighting for a long while without anything to eat or drink.

He was then punted by one of the robots before being grabbed by the neck from another and slammed into the ground. Glaring at the robots as they glared at him with their red eyes, something appeared high in the air behind the group of robots catching Izuku's attention. It was a black hedgehog who had red quills hanging off the back of his regular black quills that gave him a more darkened appearance, his red eyes glowed with the power of his speed. And he slammed into the robot holding him on the ground before kicking it away into another group of robots before landing on the ground in front of him.

He extended his hand and helped the bunny up as the two placed their backs on one another as they looked at their increased numbers of enemies.

"So you're the kid from that concert. I didn't think that Eggman had it in him to kidnap children." The Hedgehog said, as Izuku glanced at him.

"Sorry for not r-recognizing you... but who are y-you?" Izuku asked, rightfully wary of the Hedgehog.

"The names Shadow, part of Team Dark. Let's take these guys out and return you back to Vanilla." Shadow said, as Izuku nodded.

The two worked together to fight off the remaining robots, even getting help from Rouge who had arrived on the scene. She had brought with her another badnick who had apparently defected from Eggman's team of things and was working with the duo. Not that Izuku really cared, the robot however was showing he really liked Izuku's presence as well! His banter with Izuku during their fight with the remnants of Eggman's robots had been pretty funny to listen to as well.

Once the robots were completely destroyed, they were all preparing to take a small break. That was before Eggman himself had arrived in a gigantic mechanical monstrosity that even Izuku felt his arms twitch in fear at before shaking his head and preparing for another fight.

"So you managed to escape from your little cage. You're stronger than I thought rabbit." Eggman said, as Izuku tilted his head.

"I thought I was a bunny." Izuku said, as Eggman just stared at him.

"Your ears are overly large, you're a rabbit." Eggman said, as Izuku shook his head.

"I think I'm a bunny." Izuku retorted as Eggman shook his own head.

"I'm not having an argument with someone who works with my enemies! You all stole my power source for my new Eggman Empire, and I will get him back!" Eggman called out.

The machine powered up as it attacked the squad with tremendous power and speed. Izuku was barely able to jump out of the way in time as Rouge and the robot who worked with them had managed to fly out of the way of it's attack, Shadow had done the opposite of them and had actually been hit. As he was sent flying into one of the nearby pyramids, Izuku leaped at Eggman's machine and used his electric attacks to power his strikes as he landed what he thought were powerful strikes against the mecha... only for those attacks to seemingly power it up even more.

He was then swatted away into the nearby forest as he bounced across the ground as though he were nothing more than a rag doll. He smacked into a particularly stronger tree than the others that he'd crashed through a large surge of pain growing up his back. Rouge and the robot from before landed nearby as they pulled him up to his feet, and Izuku felt as though he was only going to be a burden on the trio of fighters.

"I-I'm sorry for making him stronger." Izuku apologized.

"Don't worry kid, we've come here to get you home anyway. Omega, you keep Shadow and Eggman busy with one another." Rouge said, as she lifted Izuku up to his feet.

He wobbled a little bit as Omega had rushed off to fight Eggman once again. Shadow having finished with his recuperation to fight Eggman once again as the two turned the forest around them into a warzone with Rouge showing Izuku the way out of the forest. The two rushed through the trees of the forest as Shadow and Omega's fight with Eggman had drawn closer to the two as they made their attempts to escape from the Sandy Zone that belonged to Eggman.

Just as the two were about to leave the forest, they found a giant golden ring. Looking at it Izuku glanced at Rouge who smirked at him in a seductive way that made his heart flutter each time he saw it. His ears twitched a little before he reached out for the giant ring, all before a robotic hand grabbed his body and yanked him back into the forest as he let out a yelp and scream of fear. Rouge immediately called out to him and flew towards him as fast as she could, but Izuku had been gone once again as she cursed herself internally.

With Izuku he was constantly pulled back towards the fight between Omega teaming up with Shadow against Eggman. They had managed to defeat the gigantic robot on their own, but now were dealing with a robot that could easily handle their powers alone. And the robotic arm that held onto him had arrived and slammed back into the missing port where the arm was supposed to be with Eggman laughing harder than anything he'd heard before.

"HO! HO! HO! HO! HO! I have my power source once more, and I will be placing him at the heart of this machine to power it! Try and defeat me now Shadow!" Eggman called out, as a small portion of the robot opened up.

Izuku struggled in the arm that held onto him as it slowly moved towards the opened port. He tried everything he could in order to prevent whatever was happening to him in the moment, but nothing seemed to work for him until he noticed something flying towards him. No, there was multiple items flying towards him at high speeds... and why did they give him a sense of Deja vu?

The weird objects soon floated around him in a circle, similar to how the Chaos Emeralds surrounded Sonic many times in the past. Izuku then recognized their shape as well as power that had once given him a small boost in strength in the past when he'd first grabbed one.

It was the Sol Emeralds!

They all floated towards his head before all the memories of his life leading up to this moment flashed through his mind. No matter how hard he tried to keep them at bay, he had to witness each and every memory before he came out of it with his body feeling so empowered that he didn't know what to do with it. By now he was so close to the port that he just... opened the arm that had been holding him with ease and climbed out of it. Jumping from the offending limb and causing Shadow, Omega and Eggman to stare at him in complete confusion as they took in his new state. Izuku noticed them staring at him in confusion as he looked down at his body... only to find that he had seemingly adopted a new color around his body.

His fur was now a light black in color, bordering on a deep dark green far darker than his original emerald, green coloring. Looking up he saw his reflection in the shiny body of Eggman's new mecha, and he had to say he looked really cool looking... even with the greenish black flames floating around himself. Feeling a little confused on that, he pulled an arm back and thrusted it forwards at Eggman as the green and black flames overtook the gigantic mecha that Shadow and Omega had so much trouble dealing with.

It was so hot that the metal was becoming overheated and melting the metals that Eggman used to create the mecha. So much so to the point that Eggman had launched his small mobile machine that floated in the air out of the mecha and floated away to a position that was safe from the heat of the mecha. Within minutes the mechanical monstrosity that Eggman had created was reduced to a silver and black goo that was slowly dissolving on the ground due to the cold air around it.

Eggman however stared at the bunny with a new expression, one that borderlines on pure fury. He reached out for his laser gun and pointed it at Izuku who immediately sensed the oncoming threat and created a flaming barrier of green and black flames to protect him. Eggman laughed at the try of protection and shot his laser, only for the laser to bounce off the weird flaming shield as though nothing had happened.

"Eh?" He asked, confused and looking at his gun.

"Eh?" Izuku asked, looking at the flaming shield.

"IZUKU MIDORIYA!?" A voice screamed across the world.

Chapter Text

Blaze walked away from the Rabbit household. She had finally gotten her precious emeralds, small emeralds that had given her the ability to protect the Sol Dimension. She smiled as she thought about how Izuku had been capable of using the Sol Emeralds for just a brief moment. Not only that, but he was able to connect with them on a level similar to her own.

She thought that Izuku being able to use the Sol Emeralds was concerning. The young rabbit had been very confused when he first touched the emeralds. They focused power on seeing the user's past and bringing it up to the surface in order to merge their power with their user. So with Izuku being able to activate one of their core abilities caused her some confusion.

But keeping that thought process to herself, she decided to prepare a portal to head back into the Sol Dimension. She had her emeralds that she protected from evil, in her own dimension there was someone who had wanted their power. And she tried many times to end their life, but it appeared that the Sol Emeralds just didn't have the power to do that.

Walking towards the now opened portal, she happily entered through it returning back to her home. Staring at the countless trees, lakes, as well as the inhabitants belonging to her home dimension. She walked down the path leading to her Castle as she softly chuckled to herself as she walked into the castle courtyard.

Blaze spoke to her fellow castle guardsmen as they spoke to one another about their fellow enemy. A woman who was a descendant of Dr. Ivo Robotnik, someone who had apparently gotten it on with a human woman and had a child. And the woman calls herself Robotnik as well cementing her status as one of his family members.

She was so enthralled with her talks with her people, she never noticed her Sol Emeralds disappearing from the small box Izuku had given her earlier.

It was about a few hours later that Blaze returned to her bedroom and placed the box inside her desk to hide them. She goes to lay down on the bed nearby as she smiles to herself knowing that her world is now safe with the Sol Emeralds safe in her hands. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she moves over to the desk in order to take a gander at the emeralds one more time.

Climbing out of her bed, she walked over to the desk. Opening it up she watches as the box is revealed to her. She picks it up and walks back to the bed and sits down on it, taking a deep breath, she opens it up and to look at her emeralds... only to find it empty.

She stared at the empty box with nothing more than complete blank expression on her face as she slowly stands upright. Taking a deep breath her expression slowly turns into that of an angered cat who wishes to give out vengeance she lets out a scream of pure anger and fury.

"IZZUUUKUUUUUUUU!?" She called out, bright hot flames appearing around her.

Chapter Text

Staring at the flaming shield in confusion, Izuku just looked back at Eggman who was shaking his gun as though something was wrong with it. He took that chance to attack Eggman's ship as he pierced through it's body as though it were nothing more than paper against his body. He felt his flames increase the intensity of their heat as he pulled an arm back and kept one of his hands out in front of himself as a flame bow was formed out of nothing but the fire flowing around his body. As he placed his fingers in the position of creating an arrow out of thin air, lightning coursed around his fingers before a green lightning arrow had appeared in his hand.

Letting go of the arrow itself had it embed itself in the armor of Eggman's mecha as it exploded in a vast array of electricity. The bright lights covered the sightlines of Izuku and Shadow as the two waited for the bright light to slowly subside before Eggman's mecha was revealed. The armor of the mecha had electricity flowing all around it before Eggman's little hovercraft flying in another direction before the gigantic mecha had suddenly imploded before exploding outward. The man angrily glared at Izuku before sending his best robot after Izuku, such robot going after the name of Sonic himself.

"Metal Sonic! Defeat that bunny brat!" Eggman called out, and a blue blur swiftly struck at Izuku.

Izuku was taken so far aback from the appearance of a metallic Sonic that when Metal Sonic slammed its metallic fist into his face it launched Izuku into the ground below. He wasn't damaged by any form of injury just a little confused as to why Sonic was a robot at the moment. And as he got back up Metal Sonic landed on the ground producing a lot of missiles and bullets that were shot at Izuku at high speeds that he sped around and kicked Metal Sonic in the head. The robot was launched into the air as Izuku sped right past the metallic doppelganger of Sonic before piercing it's chest with his gloved hand before tearing it apart in his hands.

Eggman appeared as though he were looking like someone destroyed his best friend, but Izuku then decided to make sure Metal Sonic couldn't be repaired. Igniting the flames in his hands, the metallic form of Metal Sonic began to writhe in pain as Izuku's flames began to melt the metallic creature until it was reduced to nothing more than ash. Eggman stared at Izuku in shock before he decided it was probably for the best to just get out of there before, he was next, and as he yelled at Izuku incoherently, he was gone before Izuku could focus on him.

Izuku landed on the ground as he stared at his hands with nothing more than disgust. Shadow landed on the ground next to him with Omega not too far away, the two noticed the disgust on his face before the two shook their heads at him. Shadow pat Izuku's back before Omega had scanned Izuku for anything that was amiss from before and noticed the energy that surrounded him.

"That energy does not belong to Izuku. Where did he get that energy reading?" Omega asked, before Shadow just shrugged his shoulders.

"Beats me, and frankly that's not my problem. He just sent Eggman packing with that form he's using, although I'd like to know how much longer he's going to stay like that." Shadow said, looking at Izuku now more closely.

The rabbit boy had been standing in front of them with a confused and still disgusted expression. His fur was a very deep green color his eyes were the same deep green as his fur, and green flames were flowing around him as though he was a bonfire wood stoking their flames. His ears seemed to be slightly larger, but if anything they were not much larger than they usually were, but that thought process couldn't be finished as a purple arm flew into view and smashed into Izuku's cheek knocking him to the ground. And with him on the ground holding his cheek, the Sol Emeralds had landed on the ground softly before the arm grabbed the gems before glaring at Izuku with nothing more than hatred.

"You liar!?" A feminine voice growled, as Izuku looked up.

"B-Blaze!?" Izuku called out, as the cat woman had glared angrily at him.

"Don't act as though you didn't try to dupe me out of my precious emeralds!" Blaze growled at Izuku.

"I-I didn't steal your emeralds before you left! You saw them before you left!" Izuku said, as Blaze glared into his eyes.

"I'm leaving this lover's quarrel to you two." Shadow said, before peacing out with Omega.

As Izuku had to deal with a very angry cat lady, Rouge was flying over the two as a smile came across her face. She watched as Izuku tried to defend himself from Blaze as best he could whilst the cat girl kept scratching at him with her claws and he ducked and weaved through the cat's attacks. Rouge then landed nearby as she watched the two go at it even longer as she pulled up a small watch to see how long Blaze would attack Izuku without even noticing her presence. She had even sneakily grabbed one of the emeralds from the cat's grip and was staring at it with nothing more than morbid curiosity.

It wasn't until about 10 minutes later when Blaze finally calmed down enough for Izuku to explain to her how he got the emeralds again. He spoke about how he wasn't even thinking about them at the time, and they appeared around him as though he had summoned them out of thin air. He also spoke about how he saw every single memory of his past before he managed to push past it and got that weird new form for himself that had flames coursing around him just above his skin. Blaze just kept her eye on him before sighing in exasperation before sitting down on the ground before speaking.

"You are very lucky that you didn't die of a brain aneurism. Having all that power filtering through your memories is a very bad thing to happen unless you managed to become one with the emeralds. Like I have done in the past." Blaze said, as she moved the emeralds around herself.

"Well now that you two are done having a quarrel, I think it's about time I bring Izuku back home Blaze." Rouge said, announcing her presence.

Izuku, who had noticed she was there long before Blaze did just flinch a little. Blaze however just sighed and left the area before giving Izuku a warning glance before creating a portal back into the Sol Dimension... they were unaware of how Eggman had a robot watching over their interaction with one another. Especially with a new set of emeralds that he could try to steal and use the power of in order to take over all of Mobius.

With Izuku being flown away to a nearby car that Rouge could drive, the two sat inside of the vehicle as the air passed by them. Izuku looked guilty as he stared at the vast expanse of Mobius from the passenger side of the vehicle as Rouge looked at him with a side glance. Sighing in a very exasperated tone, she spoke to Izuku in a soft tone allowing him to talk to her.

"Hey, whatever you did to Metal Sonic... don't let it get to you. He wasn't a very... sentient being. If he was, he would've realized that Eggman was evil and would've left him. And you were preventing an evil threat from being repaired." Rouge said, patting Izuku's shoulder.

"I-Is there a reason w-why you like t-talking to me?" Izuku asked, looking to Rouge.

"Why do I need a reason to like you kid?" Rouge asked.

"I'm not a kid, I'm 15." Izuku said, as Rouge giggled to herself.

"And I'm 18, what's there not to like?" Rouge asked, as Izuku looked out the window.

"W-Well I st-stutter around you a lot... I mutter sometimes... and I'm not really a fan of killing people." Izuku said, as Rouge stared at him for a moment before focusing on the road.

"I like those things about you Izuku. There's nothing wrong about your muttering, your hatred with killing people, especially the innocent. And in terms of your stuttering, I personally believe that was due to those around you when you were growing up. They didn't treat you too well and you became meek and timid because of it, just because you think those aren't desirable traits... doesn't mean that everyone hates that." Rouge said, as they slowly closed in on Central City.

"What other t-things do you l-like about me?" Izuku asked, as Rouge smirked at him.

"I love those giant ears you've got. I've especially got a love for your singing voice; it can be something I fall asleep to every night if we could spend time together like this for days on end. I also love your little drawings of Sonic and everyone, although..." Rouge paused before a teasing lustful smirk appeared on her face.

"W-What?" Izuku asked, as Rouge smirked at him.

"I didn't know you really like my breasts." She said, as Izuku blushed crimson before looking away. "You know, when we get out of sight from everyone in Central City, I might even allow you to cop a feel of them." She said, with a giggle.

"I-Isn't that w-wrong? Isn't that s-sexual harassment?" Izuku asked, as Rouge stopped the car at a stop light.

"Not if I'm consenting." She said, as Izuku stared at her.

"I-I don't think you'd w-want me to touch your body like that." Izuku said, now a little uncomfortable.

"You don't have to touch my breasts if you don't want to, maybe you actually like my ass better?" Rouge said, as Izuku felt steam coming from his ears as he blushed crimson again.

The rest of the drive was quiet between the two, Rouge having a small blush on her face as Izuku just looked out the window. It wasn't until a few hours later that they arrived in the forest where Vanilla, Cream and her Chao's lived in quiet peace. Rouge stopped the car just a mile away from the house on the side of the road as she glanced at Izuku with nothing more than a consenting smile on her face as Izuku glanced at her in a confused manor as the vampire bat just leaned back against the car door.

"D-Did something happen?" Izuku asked, as Rouge spoke again.

"Do you want to touch my boobs or ass?" She asked, as Izuku blushed at her.

"I-Isn't that wrong!?" Izuku asked, as though he were about to do something bad.

"Like I said Izuku, it's not sexual harassment as long as I'm consenting." Rouge said, as Izuku stared into her eyes.

"Y-You're not trying t-to trick me a-are you?" Izuku asked, as Rouge just stared at him blankly.

"Don't make me fuck you right where you sit bunny boy." She said, as Izuku looked appalled at her.

"W-What do you mean by that?!" Izuku asked, as Rouge just sighed.

"Do I really have to spell it out for you Izuku? I am asking you to just have sex with me already!?" She said, throwing her arms up in the air.

"B-But what about going out on a-a date before all that!? This is moving along way too fast!" Izuku said, as Rouge just smirked.

"We're Mobians Izuku, years pass by us far faster than a human does." Rouge said, blowing some wind into his bunny ear.

The ear got the subjected air displacement and twitched before Izuku felt his lower body react. Placing his hands over his lower body he immediately looked away from Rouge who took notice of his growing tent and giggled to herself.

Due to his place in the car, and Rouge slowly moving closer to him Izuku leaned back in the car. Rouge then floated slightly in the small amount of space in the car as she landed on his lap and pushed the seat backwards towards the backseat. Izuku's face was blushing madly as Rouge just smiled at him with that seductive smirk that made Izuku's heart race every time he saw it, which then he felt his hand get grabbed by Rouge. He watched with bated breath as she raised the offending limb over towards her very ample chest before he felt his gloved hand press onto the soft flesh that Rouge had cleared the clothing out of the way for.

As she was seducing Izuku in the vehicle, she felt the tent underneath her body increase in its size as she heard a small tearing sound. And then she felt a very hot rod between her rear end's cheeks before she looked over her shoulder and saw a very red rod poking up towards the sky. Glancing back at Izuku who looked like he wanted to be anywhere but here, he had managed to pull his hand away from her grip and cover his face in embarrassment.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean for that to happen!" Izuku said, as Rouge just felt herself become far more aroused.

"About an hour after your fight with Eggman, and you are already ready to fuck me? My Izuku, you seem prepared to take responsibility for seducing me with that fuckstick you call a dick." Rouge said, as she moved down Izuku's body to be level with his rod.

"I-I'm sorry, but w-what are y-you planning on doing?" Izuku asked, as Rouge smirked at him.

"What do you think I plan on doing?" She asked, before pulling the cloth that covered her chest off.

Rouge then looked to the reader as Izuku did the same in confusion before glancing back at the vampire bat.

"That's for you to find out in a minute." Rouge said, kissing the tip.

Chapter Text

Rouge planted a kiss on the tip of Izuku's throbbing member. The young rabbit had taken in a deep breath as the vampire bat smirked at him seductively as she then placed her gloved hand over the large phallus. It throbbed as Rouge had increased the pleasure that the young rabbit was feeling in his lower body and Izuku trembled in ecstasy as Rouge then pushed the seat, he was on down so he'd be laying down on his back.

She climbed up above him on the seat as she took of her suit that showed off her features very well. Izuku's face blushed even further as he watched as her tail came out of hiding behind her and her wings were now out on display. They fluttered behind her as Izuku instinctively reached upwards as she took off the lower parts of her suit before feeling a gloved hand on her ass before she moaned slightly. Izuku pulled the limb away as she grabbed it immediately and pressed it back on her ass before she smirked again at him with that very lewd expression on her face.

"I just pulled you down to have sex with me Izuku, I will not allow you to back out now." Rouge said, as she kissed him on the lips.

Izuku leaned into the kiss as well, pressing his hand into the plump flesh that belonged to her ass. Her breasts pressed down on his chest as she used her hands to pull the shirt over his head before she reached down to Izuku's pants. They had been pushed down enough for her to reach his phallus, but as soon as she pulled them all the way off she twisted herself to where her pussy was right in Izuku's rabbit face.

"A-Are you s-sure that y-you want this? W-We can back out now!" Izuku said, as a warning.

"Izuku, I've waited months for this. I will take what I am begging for." Rouge said, swallowing his cock entirely.

"Guh! F-Fine, if y-you wanna p-play that way. B-be my guest!" Izuku grunted and moaned slightly before licking her folds.

As Rouge had begun to suckle on his cock, she felt it's heat through her mouth as she giggled mentally. Izuku however decided that he should stick his tongue deep within her folds causing her to moan around his cock creating a lot of vibration and Izuku moaned into her folds. The boy then placed his hands on her ass as his fingers rubbed her tail softly as he stimulated her thoroughly, and soon enough Rouge managed to create enough vibrations to have Izuku reach an early climax.

"R-Rouge I-I'm about to c-cum!" Izuku muttered out as Rouge doubled her efforts.

'Come on lover-boy give me that thick semen!' Rouge thought to herself as she felt his cock twitch.

Within moments of her thinking that, Izuku let out a few grunts before white hot semen entered Rouge's mouth. Izuku had even begun to thrust his cock even deeper into Rouge's mouth as the woman had begun to moan even more due to the amount of semen flowing through Izuku's cock and into her mouth. Slowly suckling up everything Izuku had to offer with his first release, she pulled up off of Izuku's cock before a soft pop was heard from her releasing his cock as it bobbed back and forth. Turning around to stare at Izuku in the eyes, she began to chew the very thick cum that was in her mouth at the moment as she lowered her body on top of his.

By the time she fully swallowed his cum and opened her mouth and sticking out her tongue and revealing that nothing was left. She then felt a poking sensation at her ass before looking back over her shoulder finding that Izuku was hard as a rock once more before glancing back at him.

"Well I'll be, I've only heard that if I were to do that you would become more aroused. But I didn't think that it was a real thing." Rouge said, kissing Izuku on the lips.

"U-Um... R-Rouge... that was really... hot." Izuku muttered as he panted.

"Do you want to continue? Lose your virginity?" Rouge asked, looking at him.

For a moment Izuku thought he saw her eyes switch from their usual turquoise and into a pink heart shaped color. Shaking his head a little, he just nodded at her as she lifted herself just enough to have her pussy floating over his cock. The tip bobbed a little as Rouge used a single hand to keep it pointed upwards at her pussy's folds and before Izuku could back out of this moment, she slammed herself down on his thick cock. She moaned out in bliss as Izuku let out grunts of slight pain but more of pleasure itself.

"G-Goodness A-All Might! T-This feels..." Izuku breathed out as he felt Rouge's folds squeeze him tightly.

"Chaos this feels great!" Rouge called out, as she lifted her ass up a bit before slamming it back down.

She continues this kind of motion over and over as Izuku lets out pants and grunts as Rouge does the same. She reached down and started a passionate kissing match with Izuku who reciprocates her loving action as he reached up with his hands and began to kneed her breasts before thrusting upwards into her pussy. She let out a moan into his mouth as he continued to do this as his cock began to go deeper into her folds enough that it hit her cervix. She lets out a loud moan before Izuku actually takes the initiative and flips them over and he places Rouge into a mating press.

He doesn't know about the position he'd placed himself in, but he feels a lot of power in this position. And as he lifts Rouge's legs above her head, he begins to pound downward into her pussy as the head of his cock smacks constantly into her cervix before eventually he pushes her even more into a deeper Mating Press and presses his cock right through it. She let's out an ecstatic moan of pleasure as Izuku thrusts faster and faster as he let's his instinctual nature take over for the moment as lightning sparks around himself. His speed increases as Rouge takes note of the lightning sparks flashing across him and feels their static charge deep within her folds elevating the pleasure.

Her pussy squirts more and more cum around his cock and legs as Izuku reaches down to Rouge's chest before planting his mouth over her nipples. As he pumps her with each thrust downward, he places his other hand on her other breast as he squeezes it over and over again as he suckles on her breast like a baby. It even gets to the point that a fluid comes out of her breasts causing her to stare on in confusion before worry enters her mind as Izuku feels his cock straining. Pulling away he speaks to her.

"R-Rouge... I'm about to... cum!" Izuku called out.

"Just... let it... Ahn~ out! Breed me you little rabbit! ~" Rouge called out, her tongue falling out of her mouth.

"T-Take it all! Rouge!" Izuku called out before thrusting a few more times.

Izuku's balls begin to churn from the inside out as he feels them increase in size. And his mind goes into mating mode. As he finally thrusts into her and sheathing himself all the way to the hilt, and his cockhead breaks through her cervix once more white-hot semen spurts out inside of her.

"Ahn~ O-Oh Chaos! T-This is... It's so hot!" Rouge called out, as she wrapped her legs around Izuku's back holding him still.

"O-Oh C-Chaos! R-Rouge... t-that fe-felt really g-good!" Izuku said, as he lowered his head onto her breasts.

The two laid on her car seat as they tried to recover from their literal fuck-session. Sweat fell down their brows as Izuku then placed his mouth over her breasts again as Rouge looks at him in confusion as Izuku slowly pulls back and Rouge can't help but think that he's going to be done. All before Izuku thrusts back into her as he begins to speed up again, causing her to be confused as he pushes her to the limits of her mental capacity before he has another release deep in her body again. Rouge then called out more in pleasure as Izuku thrusted constantly into her.

"C-Chaos, are you... re-really trying... to... knock me up!?" Rouge asked, breathing heavily.

"W-Would y-you really n-not want to b-be a m-mom?" Izuku asked, looking worriedly at her.

"No... it's not that I'd not want to be.... a mother... but I'm just not r-ready... right now." Rouge said, as Izuku felt himself blush deeply before pulling out of her.

She then pulled him back into her as she groaned happily with his length deep in her as she smirks at him.

"But I never... said that... I wouldn't try... to be... one for... you." Rouge said, smiling at Izuku with slightly glazed eyes.

Izuku reached down and began to kiss her, as she wrapped her arms around Izuku's neck and kissing him back. The two continue like this for a few more hours until they decide that they've had enough, and Rouge's stomach is appearing to be bloated slightly... not enough to be noticed by most... but enough for her to look at least pregnant by about a month.

"Y-You really knocked me up." She said, as she giggled as the two put their clothes back on.

"I-I hope that y-you're not mad." Izuku said, as Rouge giggled again.

"I'm not mad, just a little confused. I hope this means I can move in now." Rouge said, kissing his cheek.

"W-We'll have t-to ask Mo-Vanilla-san." Izuku said, as Rouge smiled at him.

'He's starting to see her as a mom. That's good, better for him to forget his old one.' Rouge thought as she took a breather before driving Izuku the rest of the way home.

Chapter Text

Izuku and Rouge entered the Rabbit household, they found Vanilla sitting at the kitchen table sipping some tea as she stared out the window. Looking over at Izuku, she felt a small sigh of relief leave her body as she rushed over to him and pulled the small rabbit boy into the warmest hug he'd ever received since coming here. Due to how fast his relationship was with Vanilla, he stayed there confused as to why she was hugging him right now and showing affection before the situation came back to him. Eggman kidnapping him earlier that week in order to lure Sonic and Co out of their hiding spots before attempting to kill him, only for that plan to fail.

Izuku wrapped his arms around Vanilla as the woman constantly whispered thank Chaos into his left hear over and over again. Tears were flowing from her eyes as she held onto him as though if she didn't, he'd disappear once again, that was until she noticed the smell radiating off of him. Sniffing his shoulder, around the scent pad she noticed that Rouge's scent was radiating over Izuku's body before looking at the culprit. She stared at Rouge for a moment before a small giggle left her mouth as she brought the Vampire bat into their hug as well, causing Rouge to look even more confused than that of Izuku.

"Something alright, Vanilla?" Rouge asked, in her suave tone.

"Yes, thank you for saving Izuku! I'm not sure what Cream or I would've done without Izuku coming home today." Vanilla said, holding the young woman in her arms next to Izuku.

"U-Um... Mo-Vanilla-san, d-do you think that R-Rouge can live with us? A-At least in my bedroom?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla looked between the two.

She realized the relationship they had now was definitely cemented and just nodded her head at the two. Rouge left the house to get the belongings she had kept at her safehouse from when she worked with the Guardian Unit of Nations, over in Central City. With Izuku the young rabbit was looking at the ground as Vanilla just stared at him with nothing more than slight amusement mixed with disappointment.

"Of all the things I notice you did, having unprotected sexual intercourse was not something I thought that you'd do on the spot Izuku." Vanilla said, in a scolding manor.

"I-I know... I think the s-situation between everything t-that's happened got the b-better of me. I-I guess I wanted t-to let out some p-pent up frustrations and R-Rouge became an outlet that actually wanted to reciprocate any feelings I-I had for her." Izuku said, rubbing his left arm.

"I'm not mad at you, if that's what your thinking. I'm just warning you that if it was a day she was ovulating, she could be pregnant, and you'd have to take care of her." Vanilla said, as Izuku nodded.

"W-When the t-time comes, eventually, I-I will step up." Izuku said, as Vanilla pulled him into another hug.

"I know you will Izuku. You've never been one to leave anyone alone nor with their troubles hurting them." Vanilla said, as she brought him into the kitchen.

"Although now that I remember, there's something I need to tell you." Vanilla said, as she sighed.

"What is it? D-Did I do s-something wrong?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla spoke again.

"Izuku, do you know anyone by the name of Uraraka Ochako?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku tilted his head at her.

"I-I never heard of a girl w-with that name before. W-Why are you asking?" Izuku questioned, concerned.

"Because something, or someone you know definitely sent her here. Said that she was a gift for you to take care of, as though she were nothing more than a pet for you to have." Vanilla said, revealing the small note sent with Uraraka.

Izuku looked at the note and read it, all before re-reading the letter again as his eyes slowly decreased in size. Especially with his face slowly losing color as he recognized the words that the letter stated, Izuku then brought the letter over to the fireplace and burned it to nothing as he clenched his fists. Vanilla noticing his surprising amount of anger walked over and sat on the couch, she pulled him onto the couch to sit next to her as well as she rubbed his back. Izuku leaned into her form as his body trembled in what appeared to only be pure fear as he spoke of the name that she'd never heard of before.

"T-That was L-L-Lord X... h-he sent her as both a w-warning... and a g-gift Vanilla." Izuku said, as the Rabbit mother looked at Izuku with concern.

"What was the underlying threat in the letter?" Vanilla asked.

"If he were to ever come back, he would need to be able to take Uraraka away. So he could continue to use her as he sees fit, I-I don't know why he wants Uraraka-san... but I know one thing. He always comes back." Izuku said, as he shuddered.

"Well I guess we'll have to worry about him when he eventually returns. How about we see what Sonic and his friends are doing at the moment?" Vanilla asked, as Izuku shook his head.

"I-I think I should take a shower before heading to be-bed. I-I've had a l-long day, and I-I think I should be able t-to do another c-concert." Izuku said, smiling at Vanilla.

As the next few days comes and goes, Izuku eventually meets the brown-haired girl that had appeared earlier that week. Her hair was done in a bob-cut, but her belly had been distended from her pregnancy as Izuku winced at her as she took a glance over at him. She smiled at him, her eyes dulled out from the experience of whatever happened in her world with Lord X as she saw Izuku walking towards the bed she laid down upon.

"H-Hey! A-Are you Izuku-kun?" Uraraka asked, as Izuku nodded.

"My name is M-Midoriya Izuku. I-I originally came from t-the world that you lived in... and I was k-killed, or at least I think I was, on my way t-to UA. Can you t-tell me what happened in t-the time that I've been gone?" Izuku asked, as Uraraka stared off into the distance.

"I-It all happened so fast. E-Ever since that man... creature... thing... arrived. He had c-caused nothing more than c-chaos on the st-streets of Musutafu, and not only t-that I think h-he destroyed most of the c-countries around the World. H-Hell I think h-he even killed A-All Might." Uraraka said, with a shudder.

"A-All Might was killed. H-How?" Izuku asked, looking at her.

"H-He decapitated him, I-it was so fast... as though neither of us could e-even see him move his arm. It was j-just a green and black blur, w-what's weirder... he used a b-body that had g-green and black h-hair... but his t-teeth and eyes were rotted out." Uraraka said, as Izuku softly placed one of his gloved hands on her shoulder.

"T-That must've b-been my body." Izuku surmised as Uraraka stared at him.

"E-Even though you w-were a little plain looking... y-you looked cute with t-those freckles." She said, as Izuku looked away shyly.

"I-I'm in a r-relationship w-with Rouge... sorry." Izuku said, as Uraraka nodded.

"T-That's fine, I-I think you s-should do w-whatever you were planning on d-doing today. I-I need to rest." Uraraka said, as Izuku left the room.

Once he was gone, Uraraka dropped her kind attitude and changed dramatically. Her eyes were now looking like they were dead inside before she heard another voice in the room as she glanced over to the left. Rouge appeared sitting on the desk nearby as she twirled a Chaos Emerald in her palm before glancing over at Uraraka with a small smile on her face before questioning her.

"So, what was Izuku's and your world like? Before Lord X appeared and wrecked everything." Rouge asked, as Uraraka smiled sadly.

"It... I think it was beautiful, aside from all the d-discrimination that most people dealt with on a daily basis. Heroes were everywhere, but it was nice and quiet most of the time I was living in Musutafu. I took the UA Entrance Exams in order to try and become a Hero, like my parents wanted me to do... but since I failed those exams... I was deemed a failure by my parents and was subsequently disowned. I... wandered the streets for a l-long while, before meeting the Lord X you were referring to... he destroyed all of Hero Society all within the span of a few weeks... I don't know how he honestly did it though. He was dreadfully fast, faster than All Might himself." Uraraka said, as Rouge gained a slight tick mark on her head, something that Uraraka noticed.

"I-Is something wrong with All Might?" She asked, curious.

"Not that I like the guy, I've never met him. But from what Izuku's memories showed me a few months back, the man deserved whatever death he got." Rouge said, as Uraraka looked away.

"I-I see... is there anything else you wish to know?" Uraraka asked, as Rouge stared at her stomach.

"Who's the daddy?" She asked, as Uraraka looked away.

"I-I think h-he goes by the n-name of L-Lord X. F-From what I-Izuku-kun told me, h-he's not very nice." Uraraka said, as Rouge just stared at her bewildered.

"Okay, you have to tell me why you thought it was a good idea to get laid by Lord X. He's a psychotic murderer!" Rouge said, a little affronted.

"It's not like I had a choice, okay! I-I was all alone, and nobody even cared about me! S-So maybe I let my guard down around him and allowed him to fuck me, but that doesn't mean that I'm some whore okay!? I had been living on scraps and barely had the time to keep any kind of home I lived in for more than an hour at best!" Uraraka said, growling the last part.

"Okay, I just wanted to know. Sorry for making you all emotional, but what are you going to do about the baby?" Rouge asked, concerned.

"What are you talking about? Obviously, I'm going to raise them, not like I can abort them at this stage." Uraraka said, as Rouge nodded.

"Alright, just ask me and Izuku if you need any help. We will be here to help you out with whatever problems you have when you give birth in a few weeks." Rouge said, as Uraraka stared at her in bewilderment.

"U-Um, I'm only about 8 months pregnant." Uraraka said, as Rouge just stared at her.

"Unless you didn't figure it out, even if Lord X had Izuku's body, he is still a Mobian. That means you're going to have an accelerated Pregnancy, which is why you look ready to pop right now. How long did it take you to appear like this?" Rouge asked, as she prepared to leave.

"I think only about 3 months since I met Lord X, it was after my period stopped showing itself that I found out I was pregnant." Uraraka said, as Rouge nodded.

"Then you're in the last few weeks of pregnancy. For us Mobians, we're only pregnant for about maybe 2-4 months at best. 5 months in the worst-case scenario." Rouge said, before leaving the room.

In the dark shadows of Central City, a green furred animal revealed themselves. The Mobian had light green colored fur that surrounded her body and was covered in black and yellow pants with a black shirt covering their top, it revealed a bit of their cleavage showing off that they were a female. Her spiked quills came above her head as she smirked at some nearby humans who were looking at her as though she were their next meal in terms of a sexual nature. Her eyes were a lime green color, that really went well with the clothing she wore.

She had two sets of earrings on her ears as well as her gloves that represented her delinquent appearance. To finish off her appearance, she had yellow and gray shoes that covered her feet with socks that were of the same color. She smirked at the human as they moved closer to her, their drunken stance allowing her to take advantage of their inebriated state as she pulled out a baseball bat and slammed it into their head. As the drunkard fell to the ground, she constantly slammed the bat on their head over and over again, her smile slowly fading away into a furious and sad roar that caused any Mobians and humans nearby to run home as fast as they could.

The Mobian's face as she finally stopped slamming the bat on the man's head as she leaned back upright. Her relatively tall height for her age allowed her to take in the scene before herself as she shuddered slightly. All before tears fell from her eyes as she leaned against the wall, a flash of her very own memories hitting her like a freight train as she trembled in slight fear and anxiety.

"N-No... not again! I-I can't a-allow men t-to harm m-my people l-like that ag-again." She muttered before glaring off at all the nearby humans who'd witnessed her action.

Her angry glare came back as she raised her bat at them and chased them off. Unaware of the cold red eyes watching over her from the nearby rooftop. The black and red Hedgehog glaring down at the Mobian with nothing more than indifference and slight amusement. as he took off after her to see what she'd do to the humans. He pointedly ignored the dead man on the ground as he walked by, using some of his Chaos power to burn the corpse, nobody was going to blame this Mobian for their clear mental issues.

Not on his watch.

"At least I'll get something out of this. If not, I can always take her to Sonic and Tails." The raspy voice of the black and red Hedgehog muttered.

Chapter Text

Izuku was working hard on searching for a job to take whilst living with the Rabbit family. Vanilla had informed Izuku that with the amount of people living in her home now, especially with the help with creating an extra room for Uraraka, Izuku needed to get a job. Not only for the fact that Vanilla couldn't just be the only person working alone and earning the money to live in their home in the woods, but because the bills were becoming harder for her to keep up with. Izuku took to finding a job to have with a serious attitude as he searched all over Central City with Rouge driving him to each interview... but for some reason nobody was hiring.

Even the pizza delivery joint that he and Vanilla frequented in the last few months hadn't been hiring. Izuku let out a sigh of frustration as he sat back in the car with Rouge giving him a sad expression before patting his thigh garnering his attention. He blushed at her a little as she pecked him on the cheek before they moved over to another area where they could see if Izuku could get a job... but there just was no luck for him. It appeared as though the moment he was searching for a job that nobody was hiring, especially since it was about a week before that there was a lot of job openings for Central City when it came to people needing help.

The two stopped before another building, it was an office building that was extremely sketchy. Izuku had walked up to the entrance of the building with a little bit of trepidation before entering it with a confused and concerned expression as he took in the completely different appearance inside. On the outside the building appeared as though it were a pigsty, the outer walls looking as though they needed a major update and in serious need of repair. But on the inside, it was as though there wasn't anything wrong with the building at all, multiple devices that were high tech and as though they were recently bought.

A man walked around the corner and Izuku noticed how they appeared to look. They were a human; he had grayed hairs on his head with a small mustache on his face wearing a uniform in the shape of a militaristic way. Izuku tilted his head at the man who looked down at him with confusion before speaking.

"Are you Midoriya Izuku?" The man questioned.

"I-I am sir... b- but why does this b-building appear t-to be disturbingly... unprepared for a-any environment?" Izuku asked, as the man chuckled.

"The mayor gives us money to upgrade our technology. We just don't want people thinking that we're some high and mighty power that can get what we want through strongarming those around us, even the civilians. My name is Abraham Tower, but you can call me the Commander... and welcome to the Guardian Unit of Nations... otherwise known as G.U.N." Tower said, with a smile on his face.

"T-This is supposed to be a m-military... right?" Izuku asked, as Tower nodded.

"Don't get me wrong, we are a military that Central City hired to protect them all. But we are split up all around the planet in order to protect those of us who are in need of it, not wanting it." Tower said, as he led Izuku through the halls.

"O-Okay, d-didn't Rouge work here for a w-while in the past?" Izuku asked, as Tower chuckled.

"Yes, she used to be one of our Secret Agents. But she left us to work with the Freedom Fighters alongside Sonic and his pals. We'll miss someone like her working for us, but what can you tell me about your strengths and weaknesses?" Tower asked, as he opened an office belonging to himself.

Entering the room, Izuku gave the man all the information he could about his own strengths and weaknesses that he remembered. When Tower wrote them down, Izuku looked at him worriedly as the man just informed him that it was in the event he went awol and turned on humanity. Not that Izuku would ever do it, but the young rabbit was actually glad that someone prepared for an event that might never come to be. And the two got to talking about potential jobs that Izuku would get within the building, ranging from a janitor who cleans the place up during the days and early nights to one of his high-level security officers.

And from what it appeared in Izuku's mind, the two were getting along quite well. So much so in fact that Izuku felt as though something was off with the job, he was giving Izuku without even thinking about rejecting him in the slightest.

"D-Do you have a u-ulterior motive t-to hiring me sir? N-Not that I'm saying that I won't work here, the pay seems to be perfect... I just can't help but feel as though you're hiding something from me. Every single other person in the city has ignored me trying to get a job at their specific places of work, but when I come here you are not only accepting me... but you're doing it in such a way that it's suspicious." Izuku said, very wary of the man in front of him.

Tower remained silent as he gauged Izuku's correct assumption about him and his place of work. The young rabbit was a very observant little Mobian if the Commander had to say so himself, it was why he was trying his very best to appeal to him in the correct way. And the fact he had figured out he was trying to actually get him hired on as one of his men was something to be commended, not even Rouge had figured out he was hiring her at the time to keep an eye on her. That was when Tower decided to lay down the truth of his reasons for hiring Izuku on the spot aside from the danger factor of Izuku.

"Young man, do you know what it's like to live in a world where Mobians are the majority?" Tower asked, standing up and looking out his window.

"I-I know what it's like to l-live in a world where e-everyone has powers, and I-I didn't." Izuku supplied as Tower nodded.

"Then you have to know that in hiring you on as one of my subordinates or a spare janitor that it is mainly to keep an eye on you." Tower stated as Izuku nodded.

"To make sure that I don't do anything suspicious whilst under your control... right?" Izuku questioned as Tower gave a so-so motion.

"Not exactly, but it's primarily to make sure that you don't appear to become a threat to the world later on. In the event that someone manages to turn you over to their side either through charisma, or brainwashing... it's my job to make sure that something like that doesn't happen. It's why I was always against Sonic living in Central City over the last few years, his speed and power make him something that most people would love to get their hands on. Not because of his free will, but because of the fact that he could be used against anything and anyone without any singular way to defeat him... and the only person known to have defeated him even once was Dr. Eggman." Tower stated with a sigh.

"Okay, but what kind of threat do you think I can be?" Izuku asked, deeply confused.

"Do you remember what happened during the Metal Virus incident?" Tower asked, as Izuku nodded with a shudder.

"Eggman created a Metal Virus that could turn anything and anyone into a metallic robot hellbent on either tearing anything apart or adding to their numbers. They were soon taken over by the Deadly Six before Sonic and everyone else managed to defeat them all and restore everything." Izuku supplied as Tower nodded.

"But did that restore those between us all who were human and Mobian alike from being torn to shreds? Did that restore those whose lives were forever lost to the threat that Eggman himself had created?" Tower asked, as Izuku grimaced.

"W-Where do I sit in this whole defense plan of yours?" Izuku asked, as Tower pulled up footage of him holding off the leader of the Deadly Six.

"Do you know who that is?" Tower asked, as Izuku barely nodded.

"H-He's Zavok... right?" Izuku asked, trying to remember the red and black individual.

"You're correct, he was the leader of the Deadly Six and the one who was primarily in charge of the Zombots as you called them. He was the most dangerous opponent you could've ever faced in your lifetime... and you managed to defeat him all on your own whilst you were infected with the Metal Virus." Tower said, as he pointed to Izuku's lime metallic form on Zavok's chest.

"Um, what does that have to do with me sir?" Izuku asked, as Tower smiled.

"The fact that you are as docile when looking at those around me is astonishing. You primarily spout about all life being precious, and in a way your words are correct in that kind of way... but if you were up against something or someone where killing them was a mercy to them. Would you kill them?" Tower asked.

"I'd see if I could exhaust all other options before coming to that, there has to be another way aside from killing them. Unless the opponent is completely pure evil from the heart throughout their body, and killing is the only option to even deal damage... it depends on the situation sir." Izuku said, as Tower frowned slightly at Izuku's words but smiled in the end.

"You fight for all life to live, and I can respect that. So, I will be giving you the job of a low-ranking member of G.U.N, you will be trained in how to utilize our weapons to detain and arrest those within our city who are causing Havok and disturbing the peace. You will start at a low ranking, but the longer you stay within this organization and follow orders your rank might increase over time." Tower said, tossing a small badge on the table.

"What if I need to break protocol in order to save someone's life... be they a Mobian or a Human?" Izuku asked, his ear twitching.

"Then you are given the express permission to do so, in the event that civilian lives in the event they are both human or Mobian. Although if you break the code and there was a way to save civilians whilst within the code of conduct you will be punished. This isn't a game; civilians could die if you don't do things as fast as possible." Tower said, before looking out the window again.

"Come back to speak to me next week, I'll give you that much time in order to come to a decision." Tower stated as Izuku got up and left the room.

Looking from his position at the top of his tower, the man watched as Izuku got into a familiar vehicle. And as it drove off into the distance Tower could only sigh in relief at how he managed to get Izuku to probably join through his own charisma. The man wasn't evil, just highly protective of those that Sonic just couldn't reach through his speed alone after all... you can be fast, but speed is never what you need to stop every situation. You need to have the mind, charisma, speed and intelligence to stop a situation from escalating to the point where violence is required.

But with Izuku's mind, analytical prowess and observation skills he'd be perfect to bring any situation down to civil talks. And should something break out into violence, the young rabbit was given express permission to end it before it got far worse than before. Now, however... a new problem arose... Where in the hell was Dr. Eggman and what was he planning next?

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Driving back home towards the forest to think about his decision, Rouge kept her eyes on the road. Izuku, who was sitting next to her stared down at the G.U.N badge sitting in his gloved hand as the vampire bat woman just kept glancing over at him worriedly. Ever since Izuku had gotten back into the car with her, she had been extremely worried about what his talk with Tower was like, she knew whose building they'd gone to. She wasn't an idiot who forgot where she had been in the past, she left due to the bad management that came from Tower himself and those around him.

She kept glancing at him before focusing back on the road when a lime green Tenrec had jumped out into their field of view. Slamming her foot on the brakes of the vehicle, Rouge just barely managed to stop herself from hitting the female Tenrec who had leapt out into view. She watched as the green Tenrec had looked in her general direction before rushing over and climbing into the vehicle and telling her to hit the gas already. Surprised by the woman practically yelling in her ear, Rouge just took off towards the woods without much thought to her actions before turning around the corner.

Izuku who had finally come out of his confused funk about his talk with Tower glanced to the back seat. His face became confused as he turned to face the new arrival, her face more akin to that of a delinquent had glanced into his emerald green eyes as well. She stared into Izuku's eyes for a few moments before she spoke up in a tone that had Izuku reeling from familiarity.

"The fuck you looking at punk!? Do you want me to kick your ass with my golfclub!?" She called out, pumping a fist in the air at him.

"N-NO?! I-I was just wondering h-how you got into Rouge's car!" Izuku said, in retaliation.

The Tenrec just stared at him blankly before looking over at Rouge who was focusing on the road as she spoke to the vampire bat.

"D-Is this guy an idiot?" She questioned as the vehicle stopped abruptly.

"Call him an idiot and I will make sure that you don't have children in the future. Now then, can you please tell me why you decided to climb into my car as though you were running away from the police?" Rouge questioned as she had pulled them to the side of the road for this conversation.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you both." The Tenrec stated in a very dodgy tone.

"Try us, we've come up against multiple things that are just as crazy as the actions you have." Rouge dared as the Tenrec stared at Rouge before speaking.

"A black and red hedgehog was chasing me through the alleyways before I lost him earlier. I was trying to hide from him, since it appeared as though he were trying to kill me." The Tenrec said as Izuku looked to Rouge.

"That was Shadow right?" Izuku asked, as Rouge slammed her face into her steering wheel.

"Shadow? As in Shadow the Hedgehog?" The Tenrec asked, curiously.

"He's a friend of Rouges; they don't get along much... but they see one another as friends." Izuku supplied as the Tenrec smiled at him.

"Well my name is Surge the Tenrec! Delinquent extraordinaire!" The Tenrec introduced herself.

She had her thumb pointed at her chest as though it were the best thing he'd heard since he first entered Central City. Izuku stared at her for a moment before showing a small smile in her direction, something that warmed the Tenrecs heart a little bit... not that she'd ever tell anyone.

"My name is Midoriya Izuku, and this is Rouge if you didn't hear my earlier words." Izuku said, introducing himself and Rouge.

"Oh, this is my stop! Thanks for getting me home! And be sure to call me later little Rabbit!" Surge called out, before climbing out of the vehicle.

Izuku and Rouge blinked at how she rushed away with a slight blush on her face. Izuku glanced over at Rouge who watched the girl disappear into the alleyway as they heard some slight commotion with Izuku attempting to head out to see what happened. Rouge stopped him however with a glare before they took off back towards Vanilla's home in the woods that just so happened to be about a few blocks away towards the forest. Watching from a nearby alleyway, however, was Shadow who had been following them via the rooftops for the past hour and a half as he glanced back into the alleyway.

Entering said alleyway he came across a bound-up Surge who was screaming angrily in her bindings that covered her mouth. Shadow gained a tick mark on his head before he smacked her on the head causing her to see stars before passing out as he hissed in silence.

"To think that she though she could hide her earnings in her pocket." Shadow muttered as he pulled out a bag with a conveniently sprayed on dollar sign from a nearby bank.

"Don't... take... that away... I fought for... it." Surge mumbled in her sleep.

"I wouldn't steal from local banks, but not even I am stupid enough to return the money you stole from them. However, I might have a place where you can pay them back for your stolen cash." Shadow muttered before placing Surge's unconscious body on his bike.

He revved the engine a little waking the Tenrec up causing her to begin screaming at him again. He grumbled about loud hostages before he took off towards the nearest police station to place the Tenrec within to pay for her crime.

"The things I do as the Ultimate Life form. It feels as though I'm more of a police officer than a fighter." Shadow grumbled to himself.

Chapter Text

Suge let out screams of both terror and fury as Shadow continued to essentially drag her all the way over to the police station within Central City. By the time they were a couple of streets away from the station, she had managed to break free from her own bindings before kicking Shadow in the back of the head.

The two collapsed from the bike he had been riding to the ground. Scrapes appearing on both their fur and bodies as they let out small whimpers of pain as they tumbled. But before Shadow could get up from the ground, Surge had managed to get to her feet first before kicking him in the head again, knocking the Ultimate Lifeform out cold.

As she stared down at the black and red hedgehog, she then looked around the area to see if she could find her way back home. But knowing what happened to her family when she had left them, she remembered... she had no home anymore. The human bounty hunters had taken her entire family out and made her entire race extinct little more than a year ago.

Shaking her head, getting those bad memories out of her own head. A stray tear going unnoticed by her as she ran towards the nearby alleyways in order to escape from Shadow. She ran through the empty alley's when her mind brought up the happy smile on the face of a green rabbit.

"Why am I thinking about that brat now of all times?" Surge questioned herself.

She had long since stopped running in the nearby alleyways. Long since having lost Shadow to the wind as she relegated herself into the shadows, no pun intended. Shaking her head once more to get those weird thoughts out of her head she kept her focus on getting out of Central City and heading away from the city itself.

If Shadow had been capable of finding her earlier, then that means she wasn't safe hiding within the cities she came across. So running into the nearby forest close to Central City, she hadn't expected to run across a small brown rabbit with a small chao with her. Surge immediately hid behind a tree as she breathed heavily from how she had run through the entire night.

As Surge was shown to be hiding behind a tree, Cream had been gathering some flowers for her mother. The small rabbit having a happy smile on her face all the while before running back home, her Chao's following behind her happily. Once the small rabbit had been gone from view, Surge let out a brief exhale of relief... that didn't last very long.

"S-Surge?" A familiar voice called out from near her location.

The Tenrec immediately locked eyes with the emerald eyed green rabbit who had been out collecting some firewood. And before Izuku could even attempt to try and run away, the Tenrec immediately leapt onto him knocking the rabbit boy into the ground. Stradling the rabbit Surge placed her palm over his mouth to prevent him from calling out for help as she spoke.

"Don't even dare calling for assistance. I need a place to stay in order to lay low... you know a place?" Surge questioned as Izuku nodded rapidly.

Izuku couldn't say a word because the Tenrec was on top of him and holding his mouth shut, but he pointed his finger in the direction that was deeper in the forest. She got off of him before she glanced behind her near the location she had originally come from and nodded at Izuku.

With that, the rabbit boy had led her to his little cottage deep within the woods. Something that he'd informed Vanilla and a few others about due to it's location away from everything in the entirety of Mobius.

Upon entering the cottage, Surge had taken a look around the place. She found small pictures of Izuku and Rouge with the Rabbit family as they all had smiles on their faces. Surge then noticed a picture on the wall that showed a human boy with green curly hair and emerald eyes. He had a nice set of freckles that resembled a diamond on his cheeks.

"Who's the human in this picture?" Surge asked, as Izuku turned to look at it.

"O-Oh, that's me from w-when I was back in my o-old world... before I was k-killed and sent here via a Quirk." Izuku said with a chuckle.

"This little guy, is you?" Surge questioned as she pointed at the short but adorable human in the picture.

"Y-Yes?" Izuku asked, before Rouge made herself known.

"Izuku, if I didn't know any better... were you thinking about cheating on little old me already~? For shame~" Rouge questioned, as she smiled at the rabbit boy.

"R-Rouge! I-It's not what y-you think!" Izuku called out, as the vampire batwoman had floated around the room with a loving smile on her face.

'I wish I could have that.' Surge thought to herself, heart twinging in jealousy.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Hours later into the evening, Surge was seen crashing on the couch of Izuku and Rouge's home as she was snoring softly. Izuku was hiding around the corner with his ears sticking out from his little hiding spot before moving back towards his bedroom with Rouge. However, when he arrived the room was empty as Rouge had been in the living room with Surge.

The Vampire bat had noticed how Surge stared at both her and Izuku in what appeared to her as jealousy. As much as Rouge had wanted to tease Surge about it, she knew that the Tenrec wasn't going to take that lying down. And with how Izuku was around her, she wanted to make sure that the rabbit could have all the people in the world on his side.

Even if they were somewhat of a criminal.

But that didn't mean that she couldn't set up some ground rules for the house that she and Izuku lived in with their resident criminal. So with great reluctance, Rouge had rubbed Surge's shoulder waking the Tenrec up from her slumber as she glared at the vampire bat with annoyance.

"What's the fucking deal bat? I was tryin' to fuckin' sleep!" Surge growled out.

"I'm just going to be placing some ground rules for the house. Izuku's in the bedroom as we speak, so I believe I have some time before he believes I'm out here." Rouge said, with a blank look.

"Okay, what do I need to do in order to allow my stay here to be a bit longer than 1 night?" Surge questioned, knowing that she was being threatened.

"Rule one shouldn't be too hard for you, just don't hurt Izuku's feelings too badly. He's had enough things going wrong in his life, and I don't need you needlessly hurting him emotionally. It's happened too much for him than he realizes." Rouge said, as Surge nodded.

"Alright, don't hurt him emotionally. What is he like extremely emotional or something?" Surge questioned as Rouge gave a so-so gesture.

"Depends on the day. Now then, rule number 2... if you actually feel like you have feelings for him... know that I am the one who is in charge." Rouge said, as Surge blushed a little before nodding.

"I haven't gotten my shit together yet... but I'll think about it." Surge stated before looking away.

"Good~ Now then we can get to rule number 3. Izuku does his own little music sessions inside the basement, under no circumstances are you to interrupt him. He becomes very self-conscious whenever someone interrupts him from his singing." Rouge said, as Surge stared at her.

"Is he fucking bad or something?" Surge questioned, bewildered.

"No, he's actually very good. He's been earning money for the two of us by doing songs for the concerts around Central City." Rouge said, with a shrug of her shoulders.

"Oh, well I don't see anything wrong with that." Surge said, as Rouge giggled.

"He's not very fond of those who get close to him without a real goal behind it. He's lived a life where nobody got close without wanting something from him specifically or did it to beat him down for it. But that was in the world he originated from, like Robotnik treats most Mobians, he was treated the same way but worse." Rouge explained as Surge nodded.

"What's the final few rules or something?" Surge asked, as she tilted her head in annoyance.

"Well the final rule, that you must know, is the fact that the name Bakugo Katsuki is to never be stated anywhere near him. He goes into a catatonic state that only I or Vanilla have been able to get him out of. The same goes for All Might." Rouge said, as Surge nodded.

With that Rouge left Surge to think to herself about the rules that were given to her. She didn't want to admit it, but they were very few rules that were given. Not that she'd remember each and every one the first night... she'd follow up with them the next day. So as she fell asleep on the couch, completely forgetting her blanket as it laid on the ground... nobody ever noticed Izuku come out and place the blanket over her body.

He even patted her head and walked away!

Back in the bedroom belonging to Rouge and Izuku, the two were cuddling with one another. Izuku had his arms wrapped around the bat woman's body as though he were thinking she'd disappear if he didn't release her. Rouge wasn't complaining, but she would be lying if she said that she didn't like how close Izuku had been hugging her.

Not to mention the tent in his pants that he was desperately trying to hide within her shapely rear. She rubbed her rear end over his building erection that caught his attention with Rouge looking over her shoulder.

"I-Is now the be-best time for that? S-Surge is in the o-other room." Izuku questioned as Rouge giggled at him.

"There's a reason why the bedroom of ours is sound proofed." Rouge said, before kissing him on the lips.

"B-But I don't f-feel like doing t-that tonight." Izuku said, as Rouge let out a happy sigh.

"That's good, the last time we did it you made me extremely sore down there mister. And you're glad that Vanilla had those morning after pills. Who knew that you could be so potent~" Rouge said, kissing him on the lips.

"I-I'm sorry, I-I went a little t-too far that day." Izuku said, looking away with a blush.

"Hey, I'm not complaining. It was the best sex I could have ever asked for, you sure tamed this wanted criminal~" Rouge said, before leaning into his chest.

The two cuddled together for the remainder of the evening.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Shadow woke up in the alleyway that he had been going through with Surge. Shaking his head slightly, he glanced around the place before looking at the bike he'd gotten from a GUN agent.

"Damn it! Does that bastard even know how much this is going to cost me to fix!?" Shadow grunted out as he rode away with his metaphorical tail between his legs.

"Next time, you won't escape... Tenrec." Shadow stated with a growl.

Chapter Text

Okay I have a question for everyone, since I have been laying the groundwork for Izuku and Rouge to start a family of their own soon. I have come across a dilemma of whether or not to add another person or two into the relationship of Izuku x Rouge the Bat. If you all want to see Izuku interact with the other women within the story in a very similar manor to how he did with Rouge, please leave a comment down below.

I have been doing my best in order to keep their little relationship purely as just the two of them. But considering I haven't really added anything to put their little relationship in jeopardy, I decided to add Surge into the story to act as that sort of jeopardizing element. And if you all want to add her into the relationship, I am all for it as Izuku has essentially fallen for Rouge due to her high confidence as well as sultry speech. So having a girl who reminds him of a boy I will not mention, but in a way that if the said boy, I will not mention his name, was very tolerable and in a feminine way interact with him.

Would you all be fine with me making her relationship either platonic or romantic in the same way of Izuku and Rouge's relationship. Give a comment stating Platonic Surge/Midoriya Izuku or Romantic Surge/Midoriya Izuku.

And the same goes for any other women in the Sonic world, just make sure that it's not overtly large like most harem stories. I'm not looking to make a very large harem story within this well... story at all I just want to make sure that Izuku has all the love he can get. Especially when it comes to helping him gain all the confidence, he can in order to become an even better character within the world of Mobius.

With the relationship part of the whole problem out of the way, I need to talk about the elephant in the room. And that said Elephant in the room, being Lord X.

From what I last know, you all enjoyed the chapter where Lord X was last seen in the world of MHA, and I am thinking about bringing him back into the story in a way that won't be disruptive to the overall story. As I am moving it from just a pure relationship kind of story banking on interactions between a couple characters and the main character itself and adding in situations where said main character is in trouble a lot.

So what I am going to ask you all is very simple.

Do you all want Lord X back in the story as either a Hero, Villain, Anti-Hero, Anti-Villain or a Chaotic Neutral?

And for those who are thinking about what I mean by Anti-Villain or Chaotic Neutral, in my eyes an Anti-Villain is one who is like a small-time criminal who is similar to those Saturday Night villains that come back next time like Skeletor. A small nuisance due to their chaotic and very confusing nature. And for Chaotic Neutral, being a side character who just shows up randomly throughout the story and manages to do some things that cause general chaos that gets forgotten in the next chapter.

Kind of like Scratt in the Ice Age movies as he has his own little adventures and just co-exists with the main cast in the background of the story.

For this I will ask if you want him to be a Hero, Villain, Anti-Hero or Chaotic Neutral. Leave a comment down below of any of those as well. I hope you all have a wonderful week! See you all on the next chapter! UwU

Chapter Text

Surge was in the middle of her sleep when she heard the sounds of movement in the living room of the cottage that Rouge and Izuku lived in. She groggily woke up from her slumber as she slowly got up from her prone position on the couch. Looking around the room, she heard the sounds of humming from the kitchen as she stretched her body before going to stand up from the couch itself. When the blanket fell off her body she was deeply confused as she didn't remember falling asleep with a blanket on her body... much less about the shirt being so out of place.

She even saw a little bit of her own cleavage sticking out from her shirt before shaking her head. Walking towards the sounds of the humming she heard from the kitchen of the cottage; she turned around the corner to see a peculiar sight. Izuku was in the kitchen as he was bent overlooking in a lower cabinet, his little cotton tail just above his rear twitching as though he were excited in the moment as he pulled out a large pot from under the sink. Tilting her head at that, she decided to lean against the entrance of the kitchen as she watched him continue to hum to himself.

He reached into a higher cabinet that was almost out of reach before grabbing some rice from the higher leveled cabinet. His tongue was sticking out as he stretched his arms as high as they could go on his toes before he managed to grab the rice. Surge didn't know why, but she found it endearing to see such a short little guy actually doing something as reaching for something that was higher than he currently was in height. Then she felt a palm on her shoulder causing her to shudder in complete confusion and cold before glancing over her shoulder finding Rouge standing there with a smirk on her face.

"Remember what I said last night, just don't hurt him too much. He's got a bleeding heart for those around him." Rouge whispered as the two continued to watch Izuku begin to cook.

"From the castle walls~ I glower down at you! Soon this home world will be mine~" Izuku mumbled to himself as he continued to sing.

"Never thought he was into Rock music." Rouge giggled to herself quietly.

"What kind of songs does he usually sing?" Surge questioned quietly.

"He usually sings songs that hit home to your heart, in short... he sings sad songs. Like Let me Down Slowly." Rouge said, as Surge tilted her head.

"Let me Down Slowly? I've never heard a human sing a song like that." Surge muttered to Rouge who giggled.

"He created the song for our world, he's not from this world if you need to know." Rouge said, as she smiled at Izuku.

"You know, from most familial households, I've seen the women cooking. What is he cooking?" Surge asked curiously.

"His favorite meal before doing hard training in the front yard. Katsudon, it's really good." Rouge said, a little bit of drool falling from the side of her lips as she licked them subconsciously.

"Katsudon? I've never heard of it." Surge said, before hearing some sizzling.

"Who sits upon the throne~" Izuku sang a little as he let the o in Throne pronounce itself longer than the rest of the word.

The two women continued to watch as Izuku sang to himself, his rear moving side to side as he danced across the kitchen floor unaware of their presence. Surge immediately found her eyes glaring down at his rear as though it had killed her mother before looking to Rouge who had been watching it with fondness in her eyes. When glancing to Surge, Rouge gave her a knowing smile before she continued to watch Izuku in her own little way that showed love and fondness in her face.

Once Izuku had finished the rice, he had moved over to the stove that revealed some meat that got Surge's mouth... watering. Just looking at the meat on the spatula in his hand, as the meat appeared to be extra juicy before he placed it on a cutting board and sliced it up before depositing it in a small bowl with a couple scoops of rice that had it surrounded, all before he cooked some scrambled eggs to place around it. Her eyes slowly became entranced with the meal before Izuku suddenly turned around before staring at the two in shock... as the bowl nearly fell from his palm that Rouge had immediately grabbed.

"H-H-How long w-were you b-both there!?" Izuku screeched out before hiding behind a nearby cabinet leading to the hallway.

"We've been here since I woke up, not sure about Rouge though." Surge said, staring at the bowl.

"O-Oh, s-sorry if I woke you u-up! I-I was just making some b-breakfast." Izuku said, as he rubbed his left arm.

"Don't sweat it baby, just make sure to give each of us enough for seconds." Rouge said, kissing the rabbit on the lips that he returned.

Something in Surge's chest had cracked at seeing their relationship, but she shook her head at that. There was no way she was falling for a little rabbit who had done nothing but help her out ever since the two of them met up earlier this week! Not a single thing would make her fall in love with him, and she knows for a fact that it won't!

"I think I'm in love with him." Surge muttered to Rouge who had been eating next to her.

"I told you so." Rouge said, as Surge just stared at her empty bowl.

"H-How!? H-How is it so good!? He only made it by the book, right?! So how!?" Surge asked, as she stared at the empty bowl.

"It's just something I've come to learn on never questioning. You'll go crazy thinking about it, Shadow thought I had been going crazy when I told him about Izuku's cooking. All he told me in response is to just keep him, not that he even cares." Rouge said, with a chuckle.

"B-But I don't know if I love him or not, why is this food making me fall in love with him!? It's not making any sense!" Surge said, rubbing her face.

"Well how about you go out on a date with him?" Rouge asked, as Surge stared at her.

"He's your boyfriend, isn't that a taboo in a relationship? Not to go out on a date with someone who isn't your girlfriend?" Surge questioned, as Rouge giggled even more.

"That boy has had a life that did everything it could to tear him a new one and force him to end his own life. Many times. At this point, I'm fine with sharing him. I already took his first time, just a word of warning however... he gets really into it if you decide to get it on... as though he really wants to breed you." Rouge said, with a blushing but very lewd expression on her face.

Surge even watched as the woman had half lidded eyes as though she were reliving the experience!?

So, in a way to get away from the very lewd and very concerning situation of a horny bat, she left through the front door. Only to come face to face with Izuku who had managed to chop some wood earlier whilst they all ate, and his nose was right at her chin whilst his eyes were staring at her nose. The two stood there for a moment as Izuku slowly moved backwards whilst raising his arms as though he were scared of something about to happen. But all she did was stare at him with confusion before her eyes fell upon his arms which had started to show some muscle definition, and her eyes became swirls and passed out on the ground.

Comedically her legs were in the air with her arms as they twitched.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

After a few hours of going through her day without any kind of incidents with Izuku, Surge found herself sitting on the couch again. Izuku had gone outside for a long period of time as he'd stated he was going to visit Vanilla and Cream as the two were taking care of a human girl who was currently pregnant. Surge didn't know why the boy was helping the two take care of a human girl, especially one who was pregnant and wasn't a part of his family. Not that Surge didn't want Izuku to take care of another girl his age, she just didn't know why a girl his age had gotten herself pregnant.

So when he entered the house with a somewhat tired expression on his face, Surge was both concerned and worried at the same time. She didn't know why she felt that way towards the relatively short rabbit, even though he could take care of himself quite well. Surge couldn't help but blurt out her question at seeing him appear so tired.

"There a reason as to why you look as though a child made your day completely worse than it already was?" Surge questioned with a surprised expression.

"O-Oh, the human girl in the R-Rabbit household was pregnant. I-I helped her go through labor, she gave birth to a baby girl." Izuku said, rubbing the back of his head.

"What does the baby look like?" Surge questioned softly.

Izuku stayed quiet, he didn't know whether or not if he should even answer that question. Looking back on the entire birthing process of Uraraka giving birth to a baby, he shuddered when the child that came out was not entirely human... but their eyes had been what scared him. They were born with black sclera with one brown eye and a crimson red eye in an uncommon case of heterochromia... but that wasn't all. Their appearance had born a resemblance to Lord X as the baby was mostly a Mobian who had Sonic's appearance but with Uraraka's hair color for their quills. And upon their stomach was a large X inscribed onto the belly of the baby.

"She looks like her father, but... they aren't who you think they are when you see them for the first time." Izuku said, looking off into the distance of the house.

"I see, well at least you know how to help the Rabbit family take care of the young woman. What is she to you anyway?" Surge asked, sitting on the couch with her arms behind her head.

Izuku took a moment to sit on the couch next to her as he kept his gaze away from her midriff as it was shown off. Surge watched the green Mobian's gaze as it went from multiple different forms of emotions, ranging from a growing paternal to more of a sibling kind of worry. He opened his mouth to speak but stopped himself multiple times over, as though he were struggling with the words that were about to come out of his mouth. Eventually, Izuku managed to open his mouth and speak to her.

"I don't see Uraraka-san as a girl that I'd willingly date right now. If I was a human and tried out for UA, I might have come to the conclusion of dating her at some point. But it definitely isn't right now, I only view Uraraka-san as a somewhat little sister. And I might slowly grow to see her as more than a sister and more of a friend, but I don't see myself entering a romantic relationship with her." Izuku said, shaking his head.

"That's a pretty deep answer. Do you see yourself entering a poly relationship?" Surge asked, a slight blush on her face.

"I... I'm not sure. I've admittedly never had someone like me like Rouge has, she's been the only one to actually show me love in a romantic kind of way. Nobody from the world I came from ever saw me as someone that could be a romantic partner, so I never thought I'd ever be in a relationship with anyone. That was until Rouge saved me a few times." Izuku said, with a fond expression on his face.

"How did that happen?" Surge asked, with a smile.

"I first met Rouge about maybe a year and a half ago, she had been about to be killed by someone impersonating Sonic. And I jumped in and distracted them long enough for her to escape, and I eventually escaped myself." Izuku said, with a chuckle.

"That doesn't sound very safe." Surge said, with a knowing smile.

"Yeah, and it doesn't help that at the time, I wasn't really in the right kind of headspace." Izuku said, looking at Surge.

"Wait, you weren't in the right headspace? What do you mean by that?" Surge questioned.

"Surge, I'm not like that anymore... but when I saved Rouge... I was suicidal. I never told anyone because at the time, I had nobody who ever cared about my wellbeing aside from my own mother. And even then, she wasn't really around to help me with my declining mental issues." Izuku said, with a very hollow laugh.

Surge stayed quiet as Izuku continued on about how he met Rouge, not long after the whole Lord X problem. He spoke about how he was having a panic attack during a meeting in how to deal with Lord X who had managed to stay in Sonic's body but allowed him to be separated from the demon itself. It was jarring for the Tenrec to find out about such a being who was capable of being away from his own possessed body and allowing them to make their own decisions. But she couldn't help but wonder what was going to happen next when the rabbit had managed to reach the end of his little story.

"In the end, there was only one way to get rid of Lord X at the time." Izuku said, with a deep breath.

"What was it?" Surge questioned, feeling dread build up inside her heart.

"I allowed Lord X to take possession of my body." Izuku said, as he stared at the fireplace that had somehow managed to start burning.

"Why would you do that!?" Surge asked, incredulous in her expression.

"Because it was the only way for him to leave those of Mobius alone, and I did the only thing that had come to my mind at the time. The world I originate from didn't really treat me as well as this one did when I first met those of this world, so I gave up the world who had treated me as horribly as possible to save this one." Izuku said, as Surge stared at him in shock.

It was one thing to give up her world in order to save that of another, but to give up the world that you originate from in order to save the world that he had only met. It took a lot of courage or spite in order to allow to happen in the first place, and Surge couldn't help but look at Izuku more closely. From what she could see, the rabbit Mobian couldn't project that he was feeling some kind of regret... but the more she stared into his eyes she found that there was some regret in his eyes. He just kept it hidden from those around them, how she was able to see it... the rabbit had been clenching and unclenching his hands as though he were thinking about said decision.

Now Surge was not sure if she would've been capable of giving up Mobius in order to save the world of another planet. Not only that but have the courage to stare death in the face and actually make a deal with them in order to save the world that had only showed a small modicum of kindness. And the more Surge thought about it, if she'd lived on Mobius and never once received an ounce of kindness, she couldn't help but think that she'd do the same exact thing if Izuku's world had shown her the same kindness Mobius did for him.

"Do you at least know what became of your world?" Surge asked, as Izuku shrugged.

"I've never gone back to see what had happened, all I know is that Uraraka-san spoke about how everything is so... in her words 'Fucked'." Izuku said, whilst rubbing his eyes.

"Damn, I wasn't aware that the girl could curse like that." Surge said, with a chuckle.

"You should've seen her the moment she had finally gotten her bearings and managed to gain her mentality back. She was cursing Lord X to kingdom come for getting her pregnant, and I didn't even know half of the curses she was even speaking. Vanilla had placed earmuffs on Cream's ears to prevent her from hearing those words... and admittedly I had asked Uraraka-san what half of those words meant." Izuku said, a little sheepishly.

"Did you find out?" Surge asked, a smirk on her face.

"I'd rather not say and have Uraraka-san tell you." Izuku replied with the same smirk on his face.

The two relaxed in front of the fireplace before Rouge had entered the room as she smiled at Izuku. The bat woman had then sat herself on Izuku's lap as the rabbit Mobian had immediately entered a kissing match with Rouge as the very horny bat had pushed her lips onto him in that moment.

"A-Am I supposed to be h-here whilst you do that?" Surge asked a little awkwardly.

"You can join us if you wish~" Rouge replied before Izuku stared at her in shock.

Surge could only stare at Rouge in complete shock before the woman's words came back to her from the night before.

'Izuku hasn't had the best life before coming to Mobius. It took me and Vanilla getting him used to attention for around 5 months before he could even flirt back to me. And it took another 3 months before he actually entered a relationship with me. That little Rabbit hasn't had enough attention given to him in literal years, so I will need all the help I can get when it comes to bringing his touch-starved ass back up to a more outgoing and receptive Rabbit that he was as a child.' Rouge's words played back in Surge's mind.

"I-I don't think I should!" Surge said, standing up with a heavily blushing face.

And to add more things to the fire that Rouge had instilled into her mind, she smacked Rouge upside the head as the woman let out a yelp. Izuku did take note that it wasn't a very hard smack, but one that was given to calm the other down as the Tenrec immediately left the room and into the bathroom. He glanced up at Rouge as he stared at the horny bat with a confused expression, although his lower head was doing the thinking in the moment.

"Are you ready for tonight? ~" Rouge asked, rubbing her very curvy ass against his growing erection.

"D-Depends on what you're planning tonight." Izuku said, with a smack of Rouge's ass.

"Ah~! You are going to make me worse. Be prepared to use all your condoms tonight~" Rouge said, with a smile.

She got off of him before walking towards their bedroom, stopping short of the bathroom with a very lewd smirk on her face. Izuku shook his head at her knowing what the horny bat was about to say before she spoke aloud near the bathroom door.

"You can join us both if you want Surge~ I don't mind sharing Izuku with you~" Rouge said, as she entered Izuku's bedroom.

Izuku stood up from the couch as he looked at his pants, he really wasn't prepared to take on two of the girls. But if Chaos demanded that he... spread both women's cheeks... he wouldn't be down against the challenge... after all Chaos works in mysterious ways. He was about to enter his bedroom when he saw the bathroom door opened a little bit with a crack revealing Surge's eyes staring at him through it. Tilting his head at her, he found Surge hesitating before looking at him for a moment as she spoke.

"I-Is she joking about m-me joining you both?" She asked, as Izuku was unaware of what Surge was doing behind the door.

"I-I don't know... sh-she's never acted like this before. S-So for all I know... she could a-actually be giving me t-the green light to d-date other girls aside from her." Izuku said, rubbing the back of his head.

Surge entered a thinking pose that Izuku could see through the bathroom door, and she closed it. Izuku took that as Surge not wanting to join both him and Rouge in the bedroom that night before he entered his bedroom to find Rouge laying on his bed as naked as the day she was born. Her luscious breasts bouncing from her hands moving them up and down, Rouge's smile causing him to blush and tear his clothes off from his form as he leapt onto the bed with her.

Pinning the lewd bat onto the bed with just his weight alone, he connected their hands as he began a rough kissing match between the two. Rouge had pressed her chest into his own as the two continued to swap spit before Izuku moved his lips from her own as the two stared at the other in the eyes lovingly. He then moved his head down her body and kissed her neck all the way down to her chest as it lifted up and down in a very labored manor, he glanced up at Rouge who stared down at him as well. Just as he was about to suck on her breasts, the door was kicked down stopping the two from continuing, and as Izuku stared on in horror, Rouge gained a very lewd smile on her face.

In the doorway was a very naked and bothered Tenrec who had been staring at the two in action. Not only that, but her eyes were entirely focused on Izuku's growing phallus as it just poked at Rouge's belly making his short size actually compensate a lot in his lower extremity. Unconsciously, Surge licked her lips before moving towards the bed whilst moving her hips left and right... and Izuku suddenly felt as though he were a deer stuck in the middle of the road with headlights blaring at him with a car slowly moving towards him.

It wasn't much longer before Izuku was practically shoved off Rouge's body as both girls immediately leapt onto his body. Both of their differently sized breasts surrounding both sides of his very large phallus, and the green Rabbit stared at the two in both shock and awe as they both smirked at him.

"You pushed me this far due to how good you are in bed Izuku~ Be prepared to take responsibility for me calling in backup~" Rouge said, with a very lewd expression.

"I didn't know if I would want to do this, but seeing you both in action... I want to have a taste. Not that I wanted too~" Surge said, before looking away with a pout on her face.

'What is my life right now!?' Izuku thought to himself.

Chapter Text

Both Rouge and Surge moved their breasts up and down Izuku's abnormally large shaft. The rabbit mobian boy doing everything in his power to not ogle the two girls, even though they are pleasuring him at this point in time in their birthday suits. With a massive blush on his face, Izuku went to sit upright to get a better view of the two women on his body before Rouge pushed his body back softly causing his head to hit the pillow.

"Don't worry Izuku. Surge and I can deal with this little monster~" Rouge said, lustfully.

"Yeah, don't worry about it! I've been looking for a fella like this for a long while... not that I was actually looking or anything~" Surge said, as she started to lick her side.

Rouge followed after her in licking her side of Izuku's large shaft, the pleasure building up for him dramatically. The young Mobian hadn't even reached the age of 16 yet and he has already lost his virginity to Rouge, now he's going to do the same with Surge! The Tenrec who he'd taken into his home to allow her a safe haven from whoever was chasing after her back in the city, not that he minded at all.

Izuku's breath was labored as he brought himself to stare at the two Mobian women with awe. They were rubbing their similar sized breasts in such a tantalizing way that his mind immediately wanted to test out which of their breasts were softer or firmer than the other. But he kept that part of himself hidden at the moment as the two girl's suddenly gained hearts in their eyes as they managed to push him towards the edge for his limit on holding back. As soon as they pushed their breasts in a downward motion towards the base of his shaft, Izuku let out a groan and cry at the same time.

"I-I'm gonna... I'm gonna cum!" Izuku grunted with half lidded eyes.

"That's it Izuku-baby! Give mommy some of that good shit~" Rouge said, as Izuku let out several ropes of semen out on top of both women.

It spurted out as Izuku let out panting breaths onto the women's breasts and their face. Licking up some of the semen on their face, Rouge gained a far more lustful expression as Surge started to chew some of the semen that she licked into her mouth. Her face lit up with an excited emotion as she looked to Rouge with a confused but happy smile on her face.

"You didn't tell me his cum tasted so good! It's like his cum's made of Katsudon!" Surge said, swallowing what was left.

"Yeah, I just wanted you to try it out yourself. Now it's time for the main event~" Rouge said, licking her lips.

Climbing up his body on his right, with Surge on his left, the two women kissed him on the lips. Izuku reciprocated what he could before wrapping his arms around the two of them, his hands immediately latching onto their very squeezable rear ends causing the two to let out a moan of pleasure. Moving away from their bodies pressing down on him, Izuku got behind Rouge first and began to eat her out, the batty mobian letting out a pleasure filled moan as his tongue entered area's where she couldn't reach with her own fingers.

Surge watched in great ecstasy as Rouge soon went from being a flirtatious bat into a bat in heat all within the span of a few seconds. The bat mobian's legs were squeezing themselves around the rabbit's head as his ears provided her the perfect objects to latch her hands onto. Within minutes Izuku had managed to get the bat to climax, and Surge was preparing herself for this moment, as Izuku glanced over at her she did take note of how feral his eyes had become. Gone was the meek and timid appearance of the rabbit she'd met on the street a few days ago, it was replaced with a rabbit ready to mate... and she was his current mate he was going to try out.

He placed his nose right at her entrance as he breathed everything he could from her. All before sticking his tongue between both folds that belonged to her lower lips, biting down on her lower lip, Surge let out a grunting moan as Izuku pushed his tongue deep inside her dripping pussy. Swirling his tongue in the same manor like he had with Rouge, Izuku began to lap up every bit of her pre-cum that Surge was releasing. Her gloved hands reaching for his head to hold him still before she spoke out loud for both him and Rouge to hear.

"Fuck it~" Surge grunted before pulling her gloves off.

Once the gloves were off her hands, she scratched everything she could to keep Izuku's head in place. The little rabbit boy actually tapping his foot in appreciation for her getting a good itch on top of his head he couldn't reach with his own gloves on. But that only increased the speed of which he had been eating her out, before Surge recognized something was off with the rabbit's body... he wasn't supposed to be emitting electricity... right?

And almost immediately she felt the electricity sparking deep within her internal cavern. Her eyes fluttering to the back of her head as she immediately climaxed from the sparks hitting each and every part of her insides with great speed and unpredictability. As she recovered from Izuku's onslaught of eating her pussy out, her body twitched as he switched back to Rouge, who had long since turned her rear to Izuku and presented herself to him.

"Come on big boy~. Show me what you and your not so little friend can do~" Rouge said, waving her rear at him.

Grabbing onto her ample rear, Izuku squeezed his hands on their fleshy appearance, Rouge moaning a little in the process. He stuck his shaft right up at her lower lips before he remembered something from before, something that he didn't want to become as of yet as he was still too young. Looking into Rouge's eyes he questioned her.

"Y-You took the pill... right?" Izuku asked, as Rouge stared at him for a moment.

'The way he treats Cream makes him the perfect older brother and father material... how can he not see this?' Rouge thought before answering.

"I took the pill, and besides it's not a risky day. I promise." Rouge said, as Izuku waited no longer.

Thrusting deep into her cavern, Rouge let her tongue fall out of her mouth with her eyes crossing. It always felt good whenever Izuku thrusted into her with reckless abandon, then he slammed his hips into her again and again at his increasing speeds. Electricity sparked around him as he kept fucking Rouge as though she were the last female on the planet, and he needed to get her stomach prepared for children. With the electricity sparking around his body, he focused it on her inner cavern as Rouge let out moans of pleasure loud enough to wake up an entire neighborhood if they were in the city.

Whilst Izuku was rampaging on Rouge's pussy, Surge had woken up from her brief blackout from her own climax. Shaking her head slightly, she looked over and found Izuku pushing Rouge's head into the bed the bat's face a look of ecstasy as her body trembled sparks moving about her tanned skin. Her ears were flicked back as her pupil's were shrinking with every single moment that Izuku thrusted deep into her cavern, drool was falling out as well before Izuku lifted her up by her arms and thrusted one last time.

Surge would swear to Izuku later on the next morning that he made Rouge's stomach inflate just a few inches.

'If he's packing that much sperm into her stomach, how much would he pump into mine?' Surge questioned, her palm reaching for her own stomach.

She was interrupted from her musing as Izuku appeared in front of her, the dark shadows of the room blocking his figure. Unfortunately, it was raining outside at the moment as lightning flashed in the distance, flashing the room for her to see... Izuku's lustful expression as his throbbing member right in front of her face. The mushroom like tip of the phallus as it twitched in anticipation before she wrapped her mouth all around his member and started to suck on it. Izuku let out calming breaths as Surge continued to suck Izuku's throbbing member off, before Izuku began to thrust into her mouth slightly harder and faster. Sparks then came off his body before he pushed deep into her mouth, his semen rushing down her throat.

Her eyes widened from that before he pulled away, Surge coughing a bit of spittle before clearing her throat. But that was then thrown out the window as her body was seemingly lifted by nothing and her body was placed against the bed, before feeling the tip at her lower lips. Had Izuku asked Surge the very same question, she would've answered that she hadn't taken the pill as of yet... but maybe she didn't want to take the pill. She knew that babies were made this way, and Izuku already found himself stuck to Rouge even if it wasn't only for the sex... Surge could get used to this.

That was until a pill was placed into her mouth and water thrusted as well. And looking to Rouge, she found the bat woman had finally passed out after that service, and thanking all that is Holy afterward as Izuku planted his foot beside her thigh and thrusted into her. She could feel the breath of his slamming into her neck as she moved her head to the side revealing her scent gland to him, and Izuku in his lust-minded actions moved his face towards her neck and bit down. Marking her as his own mate, just like he'd done to Rouge in the past.

His thrust his hips into her as she let out a yelp of both pain and pleasure her eyes tearing up. Izuku had taken her virginity almost as fast as he'd taken Rouge, if the bat would tell her how her first time went. But as soon as he'd thrusted into her, Izuku pulled back outward with Surge letting out a small whimper before he thrusted back inside her once again. Over and over this happened until the pain subsided and pleasure overpowered her mind. Her eyes crossed with her tongue sticking out as Izuku increased his pace before he wrapped his arms around her body placing his glove covered palms over her breasts.

Looking at his eyes from the corner of her view, Surge noticed that his lower body stopped moving. Pulling out of Surge's pussy, Izuku flipped her over to where she laid on her back before thrusting back into her sopping pussy once again and this time, the rabbit had placed her in a mating press. Pushing her legs over her head, Izuku lowered his face to being at the perfect level for her breasts, he began to suckle and grope each one with gusto. His eyes feral and demanding as he thrusted deep into her cavern... until he reached her cervix.

"Ahn~" Surge wailed in pleasure.

Her eyes had long since lost the color of golden yellow and were replaced with an emerald gold with a pink heart in the middle. She felt his throbbing shaft beginning to twitch deep within her internal cavern and drool fell from the sides of her mouth as a very wide and tooth-addled smile came upon her face.

"D-Do it! Cum inside me~" Surge whisper yelled, as Izuku thrusted one last time.

The tip of his shaft slammed right into her cervix before a small amount of his shaft's tip pushed into her womb. All before depositing his load right at her source bloating up the womb internally, on the outside Surge felt her stomach inflate slightly as Izuku kept himself buried as deep inside her as possible.

'C-Chaos! H-He would've gotten me pregnant with that load!? H-How hasn't Rouge gotten pregnant yet!' Surge questioned mentally.

"Hah~ Hah~" Izuku panted before slowly pulling out of Surge's lower lips.

Both Surge and Rouge were twitching idly as Izuku pulled the two closer to him as he climbed up the bed. The two naked Mobian's smiling dopily as they hugged each of his arms between their very large breasts and Izuku panted a little more before the two mobian women pulled themselves a little higher so they could wrap his head between their chests. Smiling down at the rabbit mobian was he panted heavily before wrapping his arms around one of them and his legs with the other.

The trio then fell asleep for the rest of the night.

Off in the distance, far away from Sonic and those of Mobius, a portal appeared. And walking from it, a blue hedgehog who looked very similar to Sonic... and alongside him were humans who had very... lewd appearances. He smirked at Mobius before glancing over at the women he'd brought with him, his crimson gaze looking over Mobius with a sinister glint in them before his yellowed and rotting teeth spoke.

"I have returned... Mobius. And I brought a couple of friends. HAHAHAHAHAHA~"

Chapter Text

A few days have passed since Izuku had sex with Surge and Rouge. The two women were back home as he worked in the forest collecting some firewood for both his home and Vanilla's. Cream was with him as well, since she had wanted to help him.

The two traveled through the forest as they smiled to one another. Cream's chao having fun as they chased around one another through the winding trees of the forest. Eventually the two came to a stop at a singular tree that looked older than the rest and was withering. Izuku pulled out the ax he held on to his back and began to cut the tree.

His muscles flexed each time he slammed the sharp point of the ax onto the side of the tree, the sound causing Cream to flinch each time. She stayed quiet though, as she watched her Chao friends play with one another in the forest. Looking up to Izuku she thought about all the times the two had talked with one another.

Cream looked up to Izuku as an older brother she never had. And she hoped that Izuku saw her as the little sister he never had in his life until now. But that brought a whole slew of problems for the small rabbit as she thought about the green rabbit now.

She didn't even really know him aside from when he helped Sonic and her other friends within the Freedom Fighters. Not only that, but he was in a relationship with Rouge and another girl not that she paid any attention to that. But the thought still occured to her that she didn't know what Izuku's life before coming to Mobius really was.

And if anything, she was a really curious little rabbit. So walking up to Izuku as he slammed the blade into the tree's bark once more, she waited until he knocked the tree down to speak. With a loud boom of the tree slamming into the ground, she watched as Izuku wiped some sweat from his brow before looking to her. A smile forming on his lips as he high fived her.

"Big brother... can you tell me about what your life was like before coming to Mobius?" Cream suddenly asked, as Izuku paused.

"W-What brought this on?" Izuku asked, concerned.

"W-Well... I just thought... that I didn't really know you personally. I really appreciate you being my big brother, but... I don't really know anything about you at all. So I wanted to know what life was like for you back in your world." Cream said, as her Chao's fluttered by her.

"I... I'm not sure you'd like my previous life Cream. It wasn't exactly... pretty." Izuku said, wincing as he spoke.

Lifting the ax into the air he slammed it down on the tree branch that was larger than most of the other branches within the tree. Cream watching him as he went to slam the ax on the branch further before noting how his eyes were glazed over a little.

"I'm sorry if it's too much for you to talk about." Cream said, apologizing.

Izuku paused in his next swing before glancing over at her with a sad smile.

"It's not that it's too much for me to talk about. I just never thought I'd ever have to reminisce about it ever again." Izuku said, as Cream smiled at him.

"Is it really that bad?" Cream asked, concerned.

Izuku stopped slamming the ax on the branch as he laid it next to the branch that was almost cut off from the tree. He let out a sad sigh before noticing how dark the sky was getting and feeling a static electricity in the air, he had Cream follow him back to her home.

It was a tense few minutes for Cream as she followed Izuku back inside her house. Her mother was in the kitchen cooking something nice and warm before she heard the sounds of something thumping against the window. Looking at the window itself, Cream noticed that it started to rain before looking back at Izuku who had a sad expression.

"Cream, the reason why I don't talk about my previous world... is because it just didn't want me to be around." Izuku said, with the sad expression on his face getting worse.

"Why? Didn't you have any friends there?" Cream asked, worriedly.

"That's the thing Cream... I had nobody to even care for me." Izuku said, as Cream gasped in shock and horror.

"What do you mean by that?" Cream asked, concerned.

"Cream, my life before coming to Mobius was more torturous than it was here. If anything, Mobius has done everything it could to keep me tethered to this place. Back in my world, Earth, nobody even liked me. They did everything in their power to take away my love for Heroism, they beat me, they bullied me relentlessly, and most of all... they really wanted me to die." Izuku said, as Lightning flashed in the background with a thunderous roar.

"GYAA!?" Cream screamed from fear.

Izuku leaned forward and pulled her into his chest as the little rabbit hugged him tight. There weren't any tears falling from her eyes, but he could feel her trembling in his hold. Looking over his shoulder he found Vanilla staring at him in sadness. He gave her a sad smile back as the woman walked over to him and placed a couple cups of tea on the table.

"Cream, did you ask Izuku what his life was like back on Earth?" Vanilla asked, concerned.

Cream nodded whilst still hiding her face in Izuku's furry chest.

"I see, well... I got to see some of his memories through the Sol Gems." Vanilla said, as Cream looked at her mother in confusion.

"How? What were they like?" Cream asked, as Vanilla's face soured.

"The Sol Gem only allowed Izuku to use them after having him relive his memories. But at the same time, I was right next to him when they activated so I got a front row seat to them. And Cream, they were extremely horrible." Vanilla said, as she got a brief memory of Izuku and his Hero Idol.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

The room remained silent after Izuku had stopped talking. His eyes were looking down to Cream as the little rabbit was drinking some of the tea Vanilla made. Izuku's expression was slowly making itself show how sorry he was for Cream hearing these things. But she was the one who asked for them and Vanilla glanced over at him their eyes meeting before she nodded.

Taking a deep breath, Cream looked up at him with a concerned expression as she took in his sad gaze. She decided in that moment she really didn't like it when Izuku was sad, she preferred it when he was happy. And spending time with everyone with a smile on his face, as though there was nothing wrong with the world.

How little she really knew.

"Cream, you love your mother, right?" Izuku asked, as Cream nodded happily.

"She's the bestest mother there is!" Cream said, holding one of her Chao in her arms.

That brought a small smile to Izuku's face as he patted her head affectionately.

"Well, that is the difference between you and me. You had a mother that showed love for you, and until I came to Mobius myself... I didn't have a mother like that." Izuku said, as Cream gasped in horror.

"Your mother didn't love you?" She asked, curious but sad at the same time.

"Yeah, it all started around 10 years ago. It was around the time I was five years old, the world I lived within... you could gain superpowers." Izuku said, with a fond expression taking over his face.

"*Gasp! * You mean like Sonic's speed, and Tails' flying with his tails?!" Cream asked, as Izuku chuckled.

"The very same! Although, the humans from my world... they had mutations that allowed them to fly or run like that. Some of them had engine mufflers coming out of their arms or legs, some had animal mutations like the Mobians. And most importantly, some of them were as strong as Knuckles due to these superpowers." Izuku said, as he let his inner Quirk nerd out a little.

"That sounds like a utopia!" Cream said, as Izuku sighed in sadness.

"Sadly, that's where everything changes." Izuku said, as Cream tilted her head.

"What do you mean by that? What happened?" Cream asked, concerned.

"You see, the thing that changed was when All Might entered the picture. He was the strongest Hero that ever lived, not only that but he was the coolest Hero. Everyone wanted to be like him, but because he had been a Hero in the purest form... nobody could be like him. So they all went about their own ways of being a Hero. But even that was something taken for granted." Izuku said, as he remembered when his bully had gotten his power.

"How so?" Cream wondered aloud.

"In my old world, Earth, everyone had one thing on their mind... Have you heard of the saying that 'Might makes right'?" Izuku asked Cream.

"I've learned a little about it in school." Cream said, as Izuku nodded.

"Well in my world, that saying was personified through the usage of both the news and the fights that happened almost every day." Izuku said, as Cream was on the edge of her seat.

Izuku spoke about the many Heroes fights he'd seen in his life before coming to Mobius. How they were just as dangerous but far more deadly than what Sonic and his friends had done on a daily basis. With Eggman, the doctor was like your average Saturday Night villain who would come along do something weird or funny or dangerous and be defeated swiftly.

The villains of Izuku's world, they didn't even flinch at taking a potential life. If they saw you, you were either dead, taken hostage, or used as a bargaining chip to get away. He spoke about how school had the Might makes Right little hierarchy through fighting all the students to become the top dog. His old friend had been the leading member of that ideology.

"Who was your old friend?" Cream asked, as Izuku let a stray tear fall down the side of his face.

"Cream, the reason I never stated that I had any friends was because I had none. The moment my superpower never came in at the age of four, I was treated as a social pariah. Nobody wanted to hang out with the powerless kid, they just wanted to have fun with one another." Izuku said, as Cream placed her hands over her mouth.

"And the person who had once been my friend... his name was Bakugo Katsuki. He was a boy that was extremely courageous and brave. And growing up before his power manifested, we were inseparable. We were like Bonnie and Clide, were were the two amigos... but when his power manifested and mine didn't. I was no longer his friend, and constantly a pebble in his path in his words." Izuku said, as Cream hugged Izuku from the side.

"I'm sorry that you lost your friend like that!" Cream said, crying into his hip.

"It's fine Cream; besides I have much better friends here on Mobius anyway." Izuku said, rubbing her shoulder softly.

Cream smiled up at him as he continued. He spoke about the many different Heroes that he'd seen fight, how their battles were either played up for the news. Or how they were completely incompetent in how they did their jobs, all the way to being outright villainous at times. Cream soaked up each and every bit of knowledge that Izuku spoke about in terms of Heroes.

It was as though he lived in one of those shows she watched on T.V. Where the main character had always wanted to become a hero, and they gained the power to become one themself... only for Izuku that never happened. Izuku spoke about how he grew up in a world without power, and how everyone just wanted him to stop talking about how he'll become a Hero without power.

It was something he said drew some anger out at times before he hid it all away from them. He didn't want them to see the, in their eyes, Deku step out of their place. He also spoke about how Bakugo had gone from being a friend into a relentless bully who wanted nothing more than to make his life a living hell.

The more Cream learnt about Izuku's life, the more that she believed that living the life Izuku had would've been a Nightmare to experience. But that wasn't all, as he got to what he stated was the worst day of his entire life.

"Cream, I need you to know that what happens after this... just know that I never think like that nor will I ever. Got it?" Izuku asked, as Cream nodded at him determined expression on her face.

"Got it!" She said, pumping her arms up and down.

The brown colored Chao at this point had made it a point to sleep in his hair. And had been long since sleeping within his head of green curls for the entire story.

"Cream, the worst day of my life came when I found a Hero fighting a giant villain. His name was Kamui Woods, he had the ability to have his arms extend like tree branches. But aside from that, he nearly caught the villain had it not been for the new Heroine on the scene taking it from him. All before showing off her rear end at the cameras and making a pun at the news people." Izuku said, showing off a slight blush on his face.

"That doesn't sound very Heroic." Cream said, as Izuku chuckled.

"Well in my world being a Hero was a cutthroat business. If you wanted people to like you, you really needed to stand out. And by showing off your body towards the camera's was one good way of doing it in my world. Not that I would condone it however." Izuku said, rubbing the back of his neck.

"But anyway, I got to school later on. And it was going as per usual, the normal students talking behind my back, being shoved around before reaching class. All before getting into the classroom and being tripped before reaching my desk. It was the usual for me back then and I'd admittedly gotten used to it at that point." Izuku said, as Cream interjected.

"That doesn't sound very good. You shouldn't have gotten used to it; didn't you tell anyone about it?" Cream asked, as Izuku nodded.

"I did, but nobody ever listened to me. Once they noticed my power status mentioned N/A or what the people in my world called Superpowers, Quirkless... they ignored me." Izuku said, as Cream hugged him tighter.

"What about your mother? Surely, she could've done something!" Cream asked, as Izuku shook his head.

"By that time Cream, my mother had stopped caring about me. She worried more about keeping her job and keeping herself going. She may have never kicked me out of the house, but she never once showed an ounce of love or interest in me when my diagnosis of being Quirkless came in." Izuku said, as Cream let out a small whimper.

"Anyway, sitting in my classroom the teacher had entered carrying a bunch of papers. He spoke about how we all needed to make our decisions about what kind of job we'd like to have when we left Junior High." Izuku said, before cringing a little.

"That's when everything went to proverbial hell." Izuku muttered rubbing his left shoulder a phantom pain revealing itself.

"That's... that's so horrible." Cream mumbled as Izuku nodded.

"Bakugo attacked me for wanting to go to the very same High School that he wanted to go to. UA High School, the one school that was perfect for those who wanted to become Heroes. The very same school that the number 1 hero All Might had graduated from." Izuku said, patting Cream's head.

"Bakugo had said some choice words that are not for you to hear at the moment." Izuku said, with a slight chuckle.

"Were they curse words?" Cream asked, as Vanilla let out a mock gasp.

"Cream, how do you know about that?" Vanilla asked, as Cream giggled.

"I heard Sonic and Knuckles stating those words towards each other from time to time at the Freedom Fighter Headquarters!" Cream said, as Vanilla let out a huff of air.

"Anyway, after class... Bakugo said some words to me that got me angry. For the first time in my life I had actually felt fury for what he told me." Izuku said, the memory coming to play in his mind.

'If you want to become a Hero so badly there might be a way for you to do it! Just pray for a Quirk in the next life and jump off the roof!' Bakugo's voice rang through his head.

"What did he say?" Cream asked, as Izuku took in a shuddering breath.

"He told me that if I wanted to become a Hero so badly... that I'd have to pray that I would get a Quirk in my next life and jump off the school's roof." Izuku said, as Cream held him tighter.

Izuku rubbed her back as Cream continued to sob into his side, the emotions of everything leading up to this getting to her. Izuku let a few tears fall as well thinking about that day as well, before looking down at Cream who had stared at him with teary eyes.

"Don't worry, I never took that thought for granted nor have I ever acted upon it." Izuku said, rubbing her head softly.

"But it wasn't much longer after that... that I came across the Number 1 Hero." Izuku said, a fond expression taking over his face.

"Was he really cool like you said he was?" Cream asked, curiously.

"For a time, he was really cool to be standing near. But when he leapt away, I had to ask him the question that I'd been wanting answered for the entirety of my life." Izuku said, before nervously chuckling as he looked away from Cream.

"I... I may or may not have grabbed onto his leg so I could ask him that question." Izuku said, as Cream just tilted her head in confusion.

"That doesn't sound so bad." Cream muttered, before Izuku continued.

"Before he leapt to at least 30 stories high into the air." Izuku said, as Cream lightly smacked his shoulder.

"Why would you do that!? What if you fell!?" Cream asked, as Izuku chuckled.

"Don't worry, I didn't fall from him. He even held onto me as we fell towards a nearby building." Izuku said, as Cream let out a sigh of relief.

"But that was where everything continues to go wrong for me." Izuku said, as Cream questioned him again.

"What did you ask him? And how did it go wrong?" Cream questioned softly.

Looking towards the window where rain was constantly falling from the sky. He also took note of how Rouge and Surge were walking towards the front door of he houses. He gave Vanilla the expression to let the two girls in as he continued to talk to Cream, the older rabbit nodding and walking away.

And he spoke the words that Cream had been waiting for just as Rouge and Surge entered the building and hearing them as well.

"I asked All Might whether or not someone Quirkless... someone without power... could ever become a Hero like him." Izuku said, as Cream waited for him to continue.

"And he said... no." Izuku said, as Cream heard glass breaking inside her mind.

"W-What? B-But... h-he was your Hero!" Cream asked, looking at him in shock.

"I know, and he let me down... really hard." Izuku said, taking another deep breath as the memory was still very bad.

"He said that becoming a hero would not be in the cards for me. That I would just get in everyone's way, and that Heroes die almost every single day. Not only that, but my dreams were unattainable without a Quirk. And that I should be realistic with my choice of a profession. In his words exactly... 'It's nice to dream, but you should at least try and be realistic.'" Izuku said, as Cream just felt so bad that she hugged him one last time before running back to her room.

There was no words after that, as Rouge and Surge walked over to Izuku and gave him a hug. Both women had done everything in their power to keep the green rabbit from crying. And they were almost successful until they watched Cream come running out and leapt into Izuku's arms. Hugging him as hard as she could before he hugged back, holding her tight against his chest.

No words were said, and nobody thought about ruining this moment.

That was before a knock was heard on the door. And as Vanilla opened the door, she was greeted with a Mobian who ash-blonde in color with ruby red eyes was. His gloves were similar to that of Knuckles as they had spikes on the end, but the Mobian looked extremely similar to a buffer version of Sonic. But there was a distinct realization in Vanilla's expression that made her recognize him.

"Do you know where I am? Because I sure as fuck don't." The young Mobian questioned with a gruff attitude.

Then the sound of glass breaking behind Vanilla was heard as she turned around to see Izuku standing right there. Staring at the blonde hedgehog with ruby eyes with nothing more than a building fear and concern in his expression.

When the hedgehog stared at Izuku for a moment, he didn't really recognize him. Until he noticed the green eyes and hair... all before noticing the red shoes on his feet.

"Deku?" The hedgehog asked.

All before Izuku slammed his fist into the hedgehog with fury in his eyes.

Chapter Text

The ash-blonde hedgehog stumbled backwards as he placed a palm over his mouth and nose before pulling it back. Looking down at the glove with confusion and more importantly growing rage at who had just punched him in the face, the hedgehog growled to himself before feeling something drip from his nose.

Those present in the house had given him a shocked expression, more importantly those who were sitting on the couch. They had been giving him one of shock and awe before anger was slowly beginning to settle in their features. But the ash-blonde hedgehog couldn't even get another word out before a gloved fist slammed into his face again.

Being launched from where he stood at the doorway of the house, the hedgehog landed on his back groaning. Slowly getting back up in a standing position he growled at the bunny rabbit in front of him as they glared hatefully at him. The green eyes staring at him with such hatred caused him such great confusion that he blinked a bit more before speaking again.

"Is that you... Deku?" The hedgehog asked, confused and for some reason worried?

"I didn't think that you'd be capable of coming here, Kacchan." Izuku growled as the hedgehog glared at him a little harder.

"I don't see you for over 2 years and this is what I get!?" Bakugo growled in anger.

"Didn't you want me to die?" Izuku questioned, his ears falling down behind his head in clear distress.

"No! I never wanted you to die you stupid nerd! What do you think I was waiting for you to do!?" Bakugo growled before Izuku angrily flared his nostrils.

"Then why tell me that I should kill myself then? What was the point in you stating those words to me that day?" Izuku growled his fists at his side trembling in rage.

"All I ever wanted for you is for you to be out of my way. But you just wouldn't stop getting in my way, so I said that in order to make sure you stay away from me." Bakugo stated, his gloved hands sparking with small explosions.

"What do you think would've happened had I followed through with your advice?!" Izuku yelled, as the rain got worse outside.

Thunder roared in the sky as the two stood in the middle of the yard belonging to Vanilla and Cream's home. The two looking more and more angered and furious with one another as it was building up to a head. Neither spoke after Izuku said those words, almost as though Bakugo was thinking about answering in a way that would seemingly calm the boy down.

Both of their fur/quills were flared out, the two merely appearing far more feral towards one another and Bakugo chose to speak an answer.

"If you were so weak as to think that I meant what I said... then maybe you should've followed through with it." Bakugo said, his eyes eerily cold.

Izuku's eyes shrank from those words before his anger immediately broke through the dam that he'd been holding back the entire time.

Rushing over towards Katsuki, rage billowing with the scream from his mouth, the two boys clashed in the middle of the yard. Bakugo went for an explosive punch at Izuku's face, but the boy ducked before the attack could land before kicking Katsuki in the stomach. The boy stumbled backwards as he ended up staring at Izuku with confusion.

All before incandescent rage covered his features and he attacked the boy with an unrelenting attack combo of punches and kicks powered by Nitroglycerin explosions.

Duck, weave to the left, jump above, slide to the right before getting to his feet was all Izuku had done before pulling an arm back and slamming it into Bakugo's face. The boys face had turned over to the right as Izuku's angered expression showed the rage he was feeling. Ducking under an arcing kick from Bakugo, Izuku tossed him away and jumped into the air.

The static electricity had flared around him before Izuku dropped down on top of Bakugo. The boy looking up at him with confusion as he noticed small sparks moving along his fur.

"I guess you were right about one thing Kacchan... when I died, I managed to manifest a Quirk or power of my own." Izuku said, as he touched the boys chest.

Lightning flared high in the air, slowly arcing and making their way down to Katsuki and Izuku's positions in the middle of the yard. Katsuki would only be capable of watching in shock as lightning gathered high in the air before coming to strike where Izuku was currently standing.

Just before the lightning was about to strike where the two were, Vanilla ran outside to see the two fighting and lightning about to strike.

"IZUKU!" Vanilla cried out.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Lightning flashed across the sky before slamming right down where the rabbit and hedgehog had once been located. A large explosion of wind and dirt was blasted out from the yard belonging to Vanilla as the rabbit had rushed over to the spot where it struck. As she got closer to the two, she soon found the hedgehog, Bakugo, be launched from the crater as Izuku walked out.

Lightning sparked around his body, his eyes glowing a toxic green color as he stalked his way to the ash-blonde hedgehog. The fury in his eyes was telling as Vanilla watched in horror as the boy slowly made his way to stand next to her. The look in her eyes and the fear growing in her expression made Izuku pause a little bit all for a moment before turning his attention to Bakugo.

"Please, get back inside the house. I need to teach him a lesson about how words can never always lead to a good outcome." Izuku said, but it sounded as though he were pleading with her.

"Izuku, this won't give you anything to feel good about. Please don't follow through with your hatred, you will feel far worse after it's done." Vanilla said, not wanting Izuku to fall into rage and suffering.

"Vanilla, he's the one who made my life a living hell. He's... He's the one who made sure that I feel so horrible about my self-worth that I don't feel like anyone aside from Rouge and Surge can love me." Izuku said, his expression still filled with anger.

"..." Vanilla remained silent as Izuku stepped forwards.

"I don't want you to get involved." Izuku said, again.

"Just... don't kill him." Vanilla said, as Izuku paused for a moment.

"Don't plan on it." Izuku retorted before rushing the ash-blonde hedgehog.

Bakugo got up from the ground pain being felt all over his body before feeling something grab his neck quills and pull him up. Looking into the eyes of the shorter Mobian in front of him, he could only pull an arm in front of himself to activate his quirk before Izuku pulled the limb away from him and pointed it back at the ground.

The force of the explosion sent the two careening into the nearby forest. Vanilla standing nearby in the yard as she watched the two fight it out as though they were long time enemies. Each time Izuku landed a punch or kick on the hedgehog, they would get an explosion off on the rabbit mobian. Vanilla's motherly nature was slowly beginning to rear it's ugly head as she felt her urges tell her to protect her child.

But Izuku pleaded with her to not get in his way, this was the boy who made Izuku's life a living hell before he met her. And as much as Vanilla had wanted nothing more than to beat the brat up herself, as a mother she couldn't let Cream see her become like that. But looking at Cream now, her gloved hands covering her mouth Vanilla knew that Cream wasn't liking this Izuku.

Not one bit.

So she walked over to Cream and pulled the little rabbit into her arms and hugged her tight. Having kept her facing away from the fight as both boys began to bleed from the injuries they were amassing.

Izuku slammed his fist into Katsuki's gut causing the boy to fold over his arm. All before Izuku headbutted him in the face, breaking the nose of the hedgehog. Izuku then twirled his body around Bakugo's head and landed behind him and punched the boy in the spine. Said boy let out a yelp of pain before Izuku swept his feet out from under him before planting his face in the ground.

Katsuki's face had a busted lip, broken nose and a black eye. The rest of his body was filled with bruises all across his entire frame. His eyes glaring at the ground at how he was easily manhandled by someone who was both smaller than him and had no power of his own. Aside from those sparks of electricity that had caused his muscles to spasm.

Izuku pressed Bakugo's face into the ground even more as he stood over the boy. Bakugo's arms splayed out with the palms of his hands facing the dirt below him that was slowly becoming mud. Bakugo glared at Izuku's seemingly glowing eyes as he pulled himself off of him as he stepped away from the hedgehog.

"Y-You done... yet?" Bakugo grunted out as he tried to stand back up but fell over.

"I still have at least 10 years' worth of shit to work through. But for now I'm done, I do hope you don't come back in this forest again." Izuku replied as he turned to walk away.

"I'm not... unconscious yet... nerd... what's... stopping me... from attacking you?" Katsuki grunted as he finally stood upright holding his right arm.

"Because I was holding back the entire time. That lightning strike could've killed you, which was why I only caused the electricity that my fur creates to force muscle spasms for you." Izuku said, his back to the hedgehog.

Bakugo didn't state a word before he looked at his arms, at least the underside of them were not affected by the rainwater falling from the air. Pulling all his sweat over into his palms from the fight that happened between the two, he pointed both palms at Izuku. The boy still having his back to the hedgehog as Katsuki grinned to himself.

"If... you're holding back... then you'd better stand still." Katsuki panted out.

Turning around to see what Katsuki was talking about; he heard the distinct sounds of explosions ringing out as he was met with a large explosion. Due to the size of the attack, Izuku couldn't dodge out of the way in time as the explosion took over his body.

Inside the house, Vanilla watched as Izuku was blasted by the hedgehog in front of him and fear found itself deep within her heart. Placing Cream on the ground, and rushing out the door, Vanilla ran all the way to where Izuku had been blasted away to. Finding him denting a nearby tree with burn marks all over his torso and chest, most of the fur burned away.

There was a few burns that were closing in on third degree before Vanilla glanced over at the hedgehog across the yard. The grin on his face showed that he was loving the damage he'd done to her son as she stood up not looking at Izuku in the eye. And ignoring his words from before, she walked over towards Katsuki.

Katsuki was bathing in the sheer happiness at having caught the nerd off guard. As he was practically preening at the amount of elation he felt at defeating the rabbit he noticed someone walking towards him. It was a taller rabbit, one who had far more anger hidden behind her eyes as she finally stood before him.

Behind her eyes fury was building enough to the point that she grabbed his neck before he could even react. Lifting to make sure he was at eye level with her, she glared into his eyes her brown eyes meeting ruby red. All before she took a deep breath before speaking to him in a very low tone.

"I think you've overstayed your welcome here, boy. If you don't want me to call the police, or Sonic... then you had better leave now. You've caused way too much damage here." Vanilla growled at him, her face turning into a snarl.

"Who are you?" Bakugo asked in his typical egotistical way.

"I'm the mother of the boy who you just blew up. So unless you want me to press charges for assault and battery, then you had better leave this place before I put you in a coffin and send you to Eggman." Vanilla growled as Bakugo just looked confused at her.

"Who the FUCK is Eggman?" He questioned as Vanilla thought about it before a sinister smirk overcame her features.

"He's someone who can make your pitiful explosions appear as nothing more than sparklers... and even more... he has a way for you to become... not so 'you'." Vanilla warned.

Placing the boy on the ground, Bakugo could only look at Vanilla before seeing a reflection of his aunt. All before he stood upright and dusted himself off before beginning to walk away from the area allowing Vanilla to turn to see Izuku now laying on the ground unconscious.

About 15 minutes later, Cream found herself hugging Izuku's unconscious form as she cried over him. Rouge and Surge were glaring at the slowly disappearing form of Bakugo as they glanced at one another before Rouge called someone she knew. Leaving the building to stand outside on the porch under the roof of the house, Rouge tapped her foot softly on the concrete.

She didn't have to wait very long as a familiar voice answered.

"This is Miles Tails Power! But you can call me Tails, what's up?" Tails answered his phone.

"I need you to send Sonic on a chase for an ash-blonde hedgehog who can cause explosions to happen from his palms. He's got gloves similar to Knuckles." Rouge said, as Tails grunted from his side.

"I've been getting a lot of calls from people about certain Mobians appearing with weird abilities. Hell, Knuckles gave me a call about an Echidna who looked like he needed more sleep as his eyes glowed. And you won't believe what happened Rouge!" Tails said, getting a little excited.

"What's that foxy?" Rouge asked, floating a little due to her wings.

"This black echidna had erased the power Knuckles can use for his super strength!" Tails said, as Rouge blinked.

"You're telling me that there's a black quilled echidna who can erase certain abilities of Mobians?" Rouge asked, curiously.

"Yeah, and there's something else too. There's also a completely blonde woman with me right now, she said her name is Melissa. She's a tech wiz like I am!" Tails said, excitedly.

"Well I'm happy for you foxy, I got to deal with a problem of my own." Rouge said, as Tails let out a confused sound.

"What happened with you?" Tails questioned softly.

"A boy named Bakugo had arrived at the Rabbit household and Izuku went all feral on him. The ash-blonde hedgehog I told you about, that's the Bakugo we saw all those months ago during the whole X situation." Rouge said, before hanging up the phone.

Shaking her head at Tails' happiness of finding another friend a thought occured to her.

'I wonder if that fox will get another girlfriend. He definitely needs another girl who likes what he can do after all.' Rouge thought to herself giggling a little.

Chapter Text

Izuku stood alone in the night-time weather as the rain fell from the sky. It had been a few hours after Vanilla had been forced to enter the fight between the two in order to stop it from going so far as one of them killing the other. Ever since Izuku had lost his control over his emotions a few hours ago, the young rabbit had been standing alone in the forest the others incapable of finding him after Bakugo had left the home.

A lot of things were coursing through the young rabbit's mind at this moment as he thought more about how Bakugo's presence in this world meant to him. To be perfectly honest however, the young rabbit really wished that Bakugo had been one of the people killed by X when the demon had gone to his world. Turns out even Demonic Entities can have mistaken be committed on the journey to have some kind of fun on another world. That provided Izuku with a new level of concern however, Bakugo saw how Izuku had a much better family in this world than the one of his previous... and that scared Izuku deeply.

The Rabbit had done everything in order to make sure that his life here would be without anyone coming to make it worse. He'd perfected his emotional problems back in his world that when he came here, he could freely express his feelings without having to place up a mask to protect the ones he loved. Or rather, the lack of loved ones from his previous world who actively showed feelings towards him or actually showed care for him.

With Bakugo in this world, who's to say that the bullies he'd dealt with in his original world were here? What if the teachers from his old world were brought into this one as well to take away all the happiness, he'd made for himself in this world? God forbid that All Might himself was in this world as well, because he really didn't want to open up that can of worms due to the Hero Worship he'd had for the man before dying. He can still remember his final words to him before Izuku decided to at least head to UA in order to become a Hero... only to never make it to the school's gates.

[Tiny Flashback]

"Do you t-think that someone l-like me... someone w-who's Quirkless... can become a H-Hero like you!?" Izuku's younger voice called out to All Might.

"Do I think that you can become a Hero without power? No. No, I should think not." All Might's words floated back in his mind.

[End Flashback]

Shivering slightly at the memory, Izuku stared off into the forest nearby as he came to terms with Bakugo's presence on Mobius. With that young man in this world, although his appearance being that of a hedgehog, Izuku knew that the hedgehog would do his utmost best to be a Hero in this world. So, in his opinion he will just stay out of the blonde hedgehog's way in order to keep those he loves and cares for out of the eyesight of that curse of a human being. Izuku knew thinking like this wasn't right, nor was it healthy for him to continue to have thoughts about... but that didn't mean he can't be petty towards someone who has done nothing but be an asshole to him for an entire decade.

"*Sigh* I wish Katsuki had not come to this world, this is going to take a lot of time to dodge and get everyone to forget." Izuku mumbled to himself.

"Get everyone to forget what?" A familiar voice asked behind him.

Looking over his shoulder, Izuku found that both Surge and Rouge were standing behind him. Although Rouge's expression was softer than usual, and she was giving him a glance that was showing a lot of emotions hidden behind it. Most of all being worried as she'd never seen the young Rabbit be as pissed off as he was against the blonde hedgehog who'd shown up at the house of the Rabbit Family. Then there was another set of footsteps rushing through the forest as it was revealed to be Uraraka who had finally arrived, sweat falling down the side of her face as she looked upon him.

Her hair was matted down to the sides of her head as she stared at the Rabbit Mobian. Even though she towered over Izuku in his appearance, although his ears made the difference nearly mute since with them, they were nearly as tall as her with their added height. But as the brown-haired young woman looked at Izuku, the Rabbit was looking at her in confusion as she stepped forwards before pulling him into a hug. Izuku stood still in her hold as Rouge and Surge just watched the interaction between the two with nothing more than a smile on their faces.

Izuku never viewed Uraraka as more than a friend at the moment, but to see her hugging him forced a different emotion in him. Guilt for having her see him act in such a way that was opposite to what his character really was when she first met him, as Uraraka only saw the kind version of him. Not once had she seen Izuku show anyone any kind of hatred or anger, hell it was damn near impossible to piss the young Rabbit off unless you really wanted to see what he was really made of.

"It's not your fault that he arrived here, don't think that it's your fault for anything." Uraraka whispered into Izuku's ears.

"I'm not blaming myself for him arriving here, I'm... I feel bad for having everyone see a side of me that I thought I had long since gained full control of." Izuku said, as he pulled from Uraraka's hug and looked away.

"You had excellent control over your emotions? Kind of hard to believe when you react to me and Surge from time to time~" Rouge teased as Izuku looked away with a nervous expression.

"That was because on Mobius, I didn't have a reason to hide my true feelings about everything." Izuku retorted as Surge noticed Izuku's lowered posture.

It was a sign that Bakugo was someone who had constantly attacked him in the past. The posture Izuku had was showing weakness at first, but it was slowly acting as though he were another alpha predator in the moment... but thinking back to the fight between the hedgehog and Izuku... he was showing off an aggressive posture.

Now that Rouge thought about it herself, she noticed that Izuku's fur was fluffed out a bit. To be honest in her own opinion the rabbit looked like a fluffier version of himself, just far puffier. And she couldn't help but let out a small chuckle before Uraraka noticed how Izuku appeared in front of her before helping him to right his heckling fur and get them back to normal.

"Just know that if you ever need help with your emotions, just talk to one of us. Hell, even talk to Vanilla she seems like the type of person who knows how to just talk to you." Rouge said, hugging Izuku.

Surge hugged Izuku as well as he reciprocated the love the two Mobian women had shown him. Uraraka watched the scene before pulling out a phone and taking a couple pictures of the trio, catching Izuku's attention as his eyes were wide. Uraraka giggled to herself before looking between each and every single person present before kneeling a little bit to be at Izuku's eye level as he looked at her with confusion.

"I'm going to need to find a job in order to pay Vanilla off for her helping me. I need to make sure that my baby is raised in a place where they can live without fear, especially with that large X on their stomach." Uraraka said, as Izuku felt his blood freeze at that.

"Did you just say that there was a large X on their stomach?" Izuku asked, as Uraraka nodded her head a little confused.

"I don't remember what you said that Lord X appeared as in your world. Can you tell me his appearance?" Izuku asked, as Uraraka thought back to it.

"Well I don't remember much, but he did take the appearance of a boy with curly green and black hair, freckles on both sides of his cheeks in the shape of a diamond. But his eyes were a very demeaning pure crimson red color... similar to the color of blood itself. But the way he utilized his smarts was what really let me trust him on Earth, but after he... essentially fucked me, he just left me alone. But he did screw other Heroines and other girls within Earth before making a plan." Uraraka said, a little worried.

"Can you tell me what their names were?" Izuku asked, his face pale.

"Oh, yeah! I know a few of their names!" Uraraka said, before pulling out a picture of each one.

"So the first one was a Third Year from UA High School, her name was Hado Nejire. She was the Sidekick for Ryukyu, not only that but she looked very pretty... this is the picture of her." Uraraka said, showing off Nejire.

Izuku, Surge and Rouge stared at the picture of the human Nejire as each of them sported a small blush. Mainly because of the fact of Nejire's face being completely lewd and her entire body was revealed to the camera in her birthday suit, and Izuku pulled the other pictures from Uraraka's hand. The girl staring at him as he glanced at each and every Heroine and girl within the man's grasp, his eyes slowly widened further as his pupil's dilated to the point they were pinpricks.

"T-That's i-impossible... t-there's no way M-Mirko would lose to Lord X. Sure he may be using my human body, but that should mean he is as weak as my human self should be that was the reason I told him to use my body." Izuku mumbled before looking at each other heroine.

"There's also Ryukyu, Midnight, Mrs. Joke, and lots of other Heroines. Most notably Uwabami, Mt. Lady, Mandalay..." Izuku said before pausing at the final person.

His blood ran cold as soon as he saw the woman's appearance, catching the attention of Uraraka, Surge and Rouge. They saw his body trembling as he stared at the singular picture of a woman who had the appearance of a short but pudgy woman who had curves but were just not entirely curves for days. Her short stature made her more likable due to her slightly fluffy appearance, but it was the dead looking eyes that she had given the person taking the picture. It was as though she didn't even care about what was even happening in the moment, and Izuku gulped at the thought that this woman was now on Mobius.

"Who is she? I'm pretty sure that she'd be nice to see." Uraraka asked, looking at the picture as well.

Izuku sat in his bedroom looking over the multiple songs he had planned for today's concert event. Ever since Vanilla had Izuku sing for everyone after the last event that happened before he'd been kidnapped by Eggman. The boy had gotten better at singing and using musical equipment, so much so that by the time this day had come he had been preparing for it.

He decided to forget about the whole people from his past appearing on Mobius and focused entirely on this world's people and making them happy. He heard movement outside of the small studio that had been built into his home just a few meters away from Vanilla's. Letting a small smile appear on his face, he opened the door to find Rouge and Surge looking at him.

Both women had a smile on their face as they both gave him a hug. The boy had been wearing his guitar when the two did this, so he could feel their chests squeeze through his instrument.

"I can't believe that I got this popular on Mobius. Once I do these three songs... I think I'll be set to sing for the entire world of Mobius." Izuku said, his voice raising an octave in excitement.

"What songs are you thinking about doing, Izuku?" Rouge asked, her eyes betraying her seductive words with her own excitement.

"I was planning on singing a couple songs from a group from Divide Music's Youtube Channel from my world. It is a channel that has been around for generations before Quirks came around on my world. And I personally think that they have some very good songs." Izuku said, as the two Mobian women nodded.

"I also heard that you got your driver's license a few days ago as well. Thinking about taking us both on a trip around the country?" Surge questioned with a smile.

"Actually yes, after raising enough money for this concert... I want to take you both on an official date. I find it hard to believe that after all this time we've never once gone out on one." Izuku said, as the two women nodded.

"You can say that again. Anyway, I'll be in the other room getting ready. Get your equipment inside the car!" Rouge and Surge said, allowing Izuku to move his equipment into the vehicle outside.

Once the trio were prepared for the concert to begin within an hour, they took off towards the grounds that Izuku will be doing it. After about a few minutes of driving, the trio got out of their vehicle and began to set up the equipment. The green rabbit doing his very best in order to not accidentally break the equipment before they reached the stage.

After about half an hour of setting up, Izuku got up onstage as he began to tune his instruments to the tone, he wants them to have. These songs were things that really made him love to sing to himself whenever he was alone... without an audience. But now knowing that he could earn money for Vanilla and Cream as well as himself... it was a good source of happiness for him.

From coming to Mobius, Izuku knew about how his life wasn't very good beforehand. But to see others smile when he sang his songs, it brought a fulfillment to his heart that nothing else had ever done before. He just needed to make sure that his song choices were the correct ones for him to use today.

Looking at the relatively small list of songs he had to sing today, he smiled at two of them. They were by far his most favorite songs of the entire playlist he used to listen to. He read them out to himself.

"One for All, Drag me Under, and Pride. These are the three songs that I plan on singing to the crowd today. I just hope that I don't screw up the songs... they mean everything to me." Izuku mumbled as he finished setting up.

Now it was time to play the waiting game and see who would willingly pay for hearing him sing to the masses.

Looking over at Rouge and Surge, he found the two were doing their very best in order to get people to be his audience. It wasn't working at first until the two began to talk about his name which got people to head into the area, they had all chosen for his little concert event. Vanilla, Cream and even Vector had shown up in order to support him... and even though Uraraka wasn't there to visit and see what this concert was about he hoped that it'd be televised for her to hear it as well, she was his first friend out of those from his original world after all.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

About another half hour passed by and Izuku soon saw thousands of people actually standing around waiting for him to begin. Once the tickets for his little concert had been bought, he began to set himself up for the first song. Even pulling out a microphone in order to talk to the crowd to get them all prepared before the event started.

Some of the crowd found it funny that he was actually going to sing, but he didn't fall for their tricks to get him nervous. He had two great girlfriends who did everything they could to help him not fall into his nervous actions. Soon enough it was time to begin the first song that he was going to sing today, One for All...

Not that he even knew what it would actually mean to the people of Mobius or himself in the future.

"Good afternoon, everyone! I hope you all are having a great day!" Izuku called out to the crowd.

"Give us a song!" The crowd screamed at him smiles on their faces.

"That I will. Just know that you all are making this event happen, no matter who says otherwise!" Izuku yelled to the crowd.

As Izuku moved back to hype himself up, Rouge and Surge stepped onstage as they held microphones of their own. Having decided to be his managers for this event to even be held they talked to the crowd telling them the name of the first song he was going to sing.

"Alright everyone~, just know that the first song is quite a name!" Rouge called out.

"It is called... One for All! Now let's hear our nervous rabbit sing!" Surge said after Rouge before the two exited the stage to the right.

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdHBaXkqPg4) Link to video!

The musical score started a little quiet as it built up towards a crescendo. The drums came in from behind him as Izuku saw Rouge and Surge using their very own instruments that they learnt how to use to assist him in his music. Smiling at them Izuku remembers when All Might saved him, before crushing his dreams.

The man had appeared out of a sewer grate spreading his feet in a stance for one of his Super Moves. His two tufts of hair that resembled a rabbit somewhat standing tall, and the trademark smile on his face as he smiled at the sludge villain that nearly suffocated him. Before pulling back an arm and throwing it towards the villain who had done everything to escape the man.

"They see my rise, when all hope seems lost...

Don't be afraid

I exclaim from the rooftops

BECAUSE... I AM... HERE!

So many battles, I have been tested

I've never failed, never have been bested

No evil will draw near

Because I... am Here!

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!"

Izuku sang as the music came into play again, setting him up for the second verse. Rouge and Surge were bobbing their heads to the song. It was certainly different to the sad ones he sang for the first time a few months ago. The crowd followed the beat by bobbing to the beat of the song.

"Keep a smile on my face

no matter the cost!

When they see me, they already know

that they have lost!

They know that they have lost!

Hear the crowds of people

Chant my name!

You're just a fool for thinking

that we are the same!

You should be ashamed!

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!"

When the music reached a quiet part, the only instrument that could be heard was the guitar that Izuku was using. His face fell from the smile he had on his face before, looking to the crowd he gave a sad expression as this next part caused a tear to fall down the side of his face.

He was also unaware of how a certain person was watching from the crowd. Izuku, completely unaware of his presence as he was now a Mobian watching the boy with concern and worry. Not to mention confusion as to how he knew the man's Quirk.

"But I have doubts

I don't know

No, I don't know!

A day will come

When I am gone

Who will rise

To take my place

The day will come

When I am gone

Who will rise

To take my place?

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!

One for All

Coursing through, as I stand tall!

No threat will ever take hold!"

As soon as Izuku stopped singing after the last sentence, the music began to die down. The crowd was feeling a little miffed at how fast the song had started and seemingly ended. But they weren't complaining as Izuku stated that he would be singing multiple songs. And if the first song was anything to go by, then that means the rest will be just as good if not better.

They stared at the boy as he ended the musical score of the song. All before looking out to the crowd and smiling at them all, and he spoke about the next song.

"Alright! I hope you all enjoyed the first song! Just know that the next two songs will probably not correlate with the first one! Now without further ado... let's begin the second song, Drag me Under!" Izuku called out to the crowd who screamed loudly in anticipation.

The new musical score built up again, only this time it was far different from the first. It was a slow version, but it was more dragged out, Izuku had stared out at the crowd with nothing more than a smile on his face. And from what the crowd saw, they could clearly see the smile he had now was fake.

"Through the night

I face the fears

for those who couldn't fight!

I'll bleed the beast that lurks inside

You cannot hide

You cannot hide!

I have spent

Every waking moment

in my head!

Fighting off the shadows

You had left

But what was left

What was left?

I look out on a concrete jungle!

Fallout had the buildings crumble!

I can't put this behind me

or just pretend

They wait out for the chance I stumble!

Fall down, as my heart might fumble!

You will never be like me

So try again!

I won't compromise

You must be out of your mind!

Smoke is filling up your skies! (Can't drag me under)

Look into my eyes

Everything I left behind

What I've paid to make this right! (Can't drag me under!)

They have gone!

Lives of those, who'd never seen the

Dawn!

Break again, because of what went

Wrong!

I must go alone, so please just

Go Home! (Go Home)

I look out on a concrete jungle!

Fallout had the buildings crumble!

I can't put this behind me

or just pretend

They wait out for the chance I stumble!

Fall down, as my heart might fumble!

You will never be like me

So try again!

I won't compromise

You must be out of your mind!

Smoke is filling up your skies! (Can't drag me under)

Look into my eyes

Everything I left behind

What I've paid to make this right! (Can't drag me under!)

Voices I know

They tell me,

I should come home!

Too long I've been

on the road!

But I am

But I am!

Far from Running!"

Izuku paused as he made sure the musical score increased in it's pace. Building up to a major crescendo as he was nearing the end of the song. He was pushing his own voice in order to have everyone enjoy the songs he was singing. And Izuku could see the smiles from each and every person in the crowd that his eyes laid themselves on.

Izuku then thought about when he tried to save civilians during the Zombot crisis. How he zipped around the city going faster and faster in his bid to save everyone he could. All before he reached the point of which he had to return back to singing the song again.

"I won't compromise

You must be out of your mind!

Smoke is filling up your skies! (Can't drag me under)

Look into my eyes

Everything I left behind

What I've paid to make this right! (Can't drag me under!)"

Once Izuku had finished the song, he let the music continue a bit further like before. All until he reached the end and let out another strum of the chords on the guitar. Without even missing a beat, Izuku began to do the music for another song. The crowd immediately catching on how he wasn't going to warn them this time.

The music started out fast and swift. As though he were in the middle of a fight and was fighting someone just as fast as he was.

"I've been taking my time

Figuring out how

Further my climb

reach the summit

I vow

To never give in

Push myself till I've found

A way to control this power

I know

... See that

there's no time for wasting

Be assured

I won't be waiting

Truth

I'll find there's no debating

Because I am Here

No negotiating

You will

Soon be

Asking for forgiveness

I'll be

Standing, Proudly

you will be my witness

You haven't seen

the best of me,

Yet!

Knowing that I can't look back!

Fuels the flame inside!

It's the path

that I have dreamed of

To stand side by side

The only one who told me

That I could if I tried!

ONE FOR ALL

I will

Carry on with Pride!

Carry on with Pride!"

Izuku stopped singing again, gathering his breath as he continued playing his instrument. He thought about all the times he'd seen a Hero die on live television. Thinking of when he'd seen the Hero Duo Team: Water Hose be annihilated by Muscular. How they were so injured that they died within minutes, but at the time he was worried for both the Heroes and their child.

Shaking his head he got back to singing.

"Keeping all the focus

Strong on my mind

Any doubts

I've had gotta leave behind

It's not a game

No restart

Can't stop time

But you won't change my destiny

It's all mine!

You think

you can tell her what to do?

I will prove

It isn't up to you

She will

Smile again

When this is through

All you've built

Will tumble right on cue!

You will

Soon be

Asking for forgiveness

I'll be

Standing, Proudly

you will be my witness

You haven't seen

the best of me,

Yet!

Knowing that I can't look back!

Fuels the flame inside!

It's the path

that I have dreamed of

To stand side by side

The only one who told me

That I could if I tried!

ONE FOR ALL

I will

Carry on with Pride!

Carry on with Pride!

Knowing that I can't look back

Fuels the flame inside!

It's the Path that

I've dreamed of

Standing side by side!

The only one who told me

That I could if I tried!

ONE FOR ALL

I will

Carry on with Pride!

Carry on with Pride!"

As soon as Izuku finished the final verse, the music came to an abrupt end. Looking at the happy people still dancing to the songs he'd sang, he gave a happy smile to them. Waving at each and every person in the crowd he spoke to the crowd.

"Remember everyone, it doesn't matter if you have power or not. If you have dreams to become a hero, there are hundreds of ways to do it! You just have to find out the best way for yourself!" Izuku said, happily to the crowd.

They didn't understand what those words meant, but they nodded at him before heading out to go home. The sun was setting off in the distance, and Izuku watched as each, and every single person left the concert. He felt a palm on his shoulder and found Rouge and Surge smiling at him as he gave the two a hug of his own.

"Those were great songs. I never knew that you could sing like that~" Rouge said, as Izuku blushed a little.

"Well, they were my favorite songs from my world. I just want to share them with this one." Izuku said, scratching his cheek.

"We will be giving you a big prize when we get home. ~" Surge giggled into his ear causing his body to twitch.

His foot thumped for a second before he began to gather the instruments. Rouge called out to Izuku that she'd be collecting the car for both of them. And Surge helped Izuku place all the instruments away into their set boxes that Izuku had placed around the back with name tags. As the two continued to place the instruments away, they heard the sounds of feet walking towards them.

Glancing up they found a curious sight in front of them. Vanilla, Cream and Vector were talking with a purely blonde Mobian who had deep ocean blue eyes. He was slightly muscular, but he was taller than the others standing at a familiar height. How he never saw the Mobian within the crowd Izuku will never know, but when looking at the individual he couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity.

"I just wish to talk to him! I need him to know!" The man called out to the rabbit woman a little toned down.

"You need me to know what?" Izuku asked, as the Mobian had bowed in a dogeza position.

Izuku immediately realized that this Mobian wasn't a normal one. He was someone that he probably knew in the past, although he didn't know who it was. Since he needed to know who they were by name.

"What's your name sir?" Izuku asked, as the man sighed.

"My name is Yagi Toshinori, and young man... You might know me as someone else." The Mobian said, before he sighed sadly.

"My alter ego, before I suddenly appeared in this world, was known as All Might." The Mobian said, as Izuku stared at the man silently.

Izuku just stared blankly at the man, remembering how he let him down in the harshest of ways but Izuku at the time never gave up on his dreams. The rabbit walked over to the bowing Mobian, now that Izuku got a closer look at him he was a very tall wolf Mobian. Around the same height as his human form used to be, albeit very off by a couple of inches.

"What did you want to tell me, All Might?" Izuku asked, as Vanilla and the others held him still.

They didn't want another Katsuki situation except this time with the man who broke Izuku's dreams of Heroism. Izuku took a deep breath as Yagi began to speak.

"I was heavily wrong in my statement of you becoming a Hero without a Quirk. I was so wrong that it costed me everything that I had built up in our original world." Yagi said, tears actually falling from his eyes.

"I am so sorry for the words I gave you on that rooftop young man. And I know that you might never, if ever, want anything to do with me again. If you wish to beat on me, then you can... words cannot state anything about how wrong I feel to have... broken your dreams like I had." Yagi said, waiting for the boy to get vengeance on him.

Izuku stayed quiet, pulling himself from the arms of everyone around him. Kneeling down to be on the level of All Might, he pulled the man upright and kneeling with him. Both looked into the other's eyes, and All Might immediately recognized that Izuku was searching for any lies. All Might was feeling incredible amounts of pain and guilt when looking at the green rabbit before him.

And Izuku could see that.

"Then... if I must... I forgive you." Izuku said, as All Might stared at him confused.

"S-Shouldn't you want to... I don't know... get vengeance for what I said?" All Might asked, as Izuku nodded.

"Then why aren't you?" Yagi asked, confused thoroughly.

"It's because I found a new family here, and I've become a Hero on Mobius. I've already achieved my dreams on this world... though it came at the expense of mine." Izuku said, muttering the last part out unable to be heard from Yagi.

"I guess I should face the friends of yours who were glaring at me the entire time then." Yagi said, looking to each one present.

"You have a lot of things to answer for, you conniving, wolf!" Vanilla growled glaring at the Wolf Mobian.

"I know, and I will do my very best to make up for my hurtful words. I regret them to this very day, and I can only hope that I earn his forgiveness the correct way. Through my actions." Yagi said, as Vanilla sighed.

"Go to this address, you should find someone who can teach you the morals of being a Hero. Then you can come back and apologize correctly." Vanilla said, giving All Might Tails' address.

"Tails will be able to help you get back in shape with Sonic!" Cream said, happily.

"I do not know who this Tails is, but I hope that he can assist me with my injured form as well." Yagi said, slightly chuckling.

"Injured?" Vector questioned with a tilt of his head.

Yagi looked between each and every Mobian present as he winced. He then lifted his shirt to show the crater scar on his left side, causing Cream to run off and throw up in a nearby trash bin. Yagi winced at that as well, he'd never meant for the little girl to see that.

"What the hell happened to your body dude!? It looks as though someone tried to fight you and placed a crater in your stomach instead!" Vector questioned.

"That was from a villain I was forced to kill. Although, he was nearly as strong as myself... it came at a cost of losing my stomach and my lungs... as well as half my respiratory system." Yagi said, with a nervous chuckle.

Vector and Vanilla looked at one another, before they nodded their heads.

"Yeah, you should definitely visit Tails. He should have something to get you back in fighting shape." Vector said, with a wink.

"I will not let your kindness be forgotten. Young Midoriya, know that after today I will do my best in order to protect everyone... and make sure that I don't give them the treatment I gave you." Yagi said patting Izuku's head.

"I know, just be sure to keep an eye out for those who came from our world. Katsuki's here as well." Izuku said, as Yagi nodded.

"I met up with him a while ago, but I must leave. A Heroes job is never finished." Yagi said, bouncing away and leaping into the distance.

In the shadows, a lookalike of Sonic appeared. Although, his fur was emerald green in color and his eyes were crimson red in color. He glared at each and every other person who walked by his alleyway and a smile came upon his face.

Gnarled and ugly teeth appeared, sharp but filled with blood. They looked at each and every single person walking by as a potential meal that he could enjoy. Once the light shone on his form, however, he hissed slightly before moving back into the shade.

"Just a little more time, then... I will finally take over Mobius. Even if my Father decided to leave it be, he never said that his children were out of the question." The Sonic lookalike said, before laughing.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Chapter Text

Inside of one of the dead Eggman bases within Mobius, a certain blue hedgehog was looking about the place. His crimson gaze looking over each and every single spot that could be used against him before looking to his gloved hands before clenching them once, twice then three times. The smile on his face never changed as his sadistic grin looked over at the harem of women who had willingly followed after him into this world. He would never break the promise that he made with the boy who was courageous enough to face off against him, knowing that if he wanted the eldritch entity could easily kill him and force him to his side.

But that was for another matter entirely, but as he finished searching the place he eventually found his harem. All the Heroines from the boy's world that he could enjoy to his hearts content, and the boy never even spoke about how his life was before meeting each Heroine he'd taken. The boy who had allowed him inside his body had given him all the memories of his life from that pitiful world that decided to make the boy their punching bag. Chuckling to himself, the sound echoing across the entirety of the dark base the creature soon stood in front of a few very pregnant women.

The first one having been a white-haired heroine who had bunny ears and a leotard that was very revealing. She was currently laying down on the ground with a protruding stomach from her Hero Costume, it wasn't too big but enough to show off towards those who were paying attention. The second however, was already appearing to be nearly 5 months pregnant in human terms... she had short blonde hair and looked extremely beautiful. Her power was the ability to transform into a gigantic dragoness, something that tickled his fancy ever since meeting that woman who had been the leader of that Pink Amazon Hedgehog tribe all those millennia ago.

"Speaking of her, I wonder... if there were any survivors of that pitiful clan?" The creature questioned.

This creature who was looking about the place, was known to all by the Destroyer of Worlds. The one who would be known as Lord X, the one who was created far before the other Primordial creatures who look over the timeline of Mobius. Lord X was the oldest of those pitiful Primordial's, but even he knew that if they all teamed up against him then they would easily win against him as it would be an uphill battle for him to take each one of them out.

The creature shook their head as they moved about the Eggman base of operations that had been long since abandoned. He came to an area within the base that he used personally for his own pleasure of being sadistic towards those who had not fallen under his charms. That being a blue haired young woman in chains, her bountiful breasts bouncing softly as she glared at him with all the fury in her eyes but still held fear behind all that fury. He chuckled at the fear in her eyes, and looking over at the other two areas, he found another set of women that he'd collected but hadn't even fallen for him as well.

The first one was a young woman who had the appearance of a giant fox, but with teal skin and a white underbelly. He initially saw her as an extremely tall Mobian woman when he first came across her, and when using his charms on her she never fell for him but actually showed massive amounts of fear. It was extremely fun showing her the thousands of ways he could easily kill her... and the look of fear and terror on her expression when he visited those dreams of hers to give had been excruciatingly nutritious. Licking his lips at the fox woman, who upon seeing him let out a fearful yelp before scrambling away from the barred entrance and huddling close to the wall in fear.

"It's so much fun watching you act so fearful to me, it's a great food source for myself. But I have no qualms with you right now, I have yet to meet the one who I had brought with myself as a gift personally." Lord X said, with a chuckle before moving onto the last couple of cages.

The last couple of cages held those who varied on their social status as well as High Standing in life on that pitiful planet. The first one he came across was a little girl who had silver-blue hair and ruby red eyes with a horn on her head, and the little girl stared at him in great amounts of fear. Looking over at the next cage however, he was greeted with the woman who had been extremely easy to reach... considering the fact that she had literally dropped herself to worship him. Her long forest green hair reaching her lower back, and plump body showing off the lingerie that Lord X had given her during their first time together in bed.

Lord X had been unaware of what her kinks were at first, but once he found out about them, he acted upon it. It turned out the woman had a lot of kinks with being as what those pitiful humans called 'cucking' and 'masochism' and it greatly aroused the entity. He watched as the plump woman had stared at him in lust her eyes long since having been taken out of her head due to the memories of the body, he'd used in order to make her a woman again coming up again and again. He gave her head a pat as it sat outside of the cage as she actively leaned into the touch before Lord X moved away.

He came to the final cage as it showed the name of the woman who he had given to Midoriya. Uraraka Ochako, the very first girl who he had come across in that world and actively allowed him to take her first time. He was gentle at first with her, the poor things heartbroken appearance showing that she had failed to get into the school of her dreams when he read her mind. Not only that, but she was disowned by her family due to them spending the money they had in order to get her into the school... and she failed them. He gave her a place to live, a reason to essentially live after her life had gone to hell moments after a letter came into her home.

"My greatest prize, the one who had first gotten pregnant. I wonder what she's doing right now. No matter, I have other plans to get down to right now." Lord X muttered to himself before leaving the area.

Leaving the caged area, he never noticed how the blue haired girl let out a sigh of relief at him leaving.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Upon entering the main compartment for the Eggman Base he was using as a home of sorts; Lord X came across a throne. Sitting upon it, he watched as those who were his eternal servants enter and kneel before him in a way that revered his presence. The entity had known that the body he had assumed was slowly decaying, but with his magic he was capable of keeping it looking as though it wasn't decaying since the moment, he'd taken it and killed it's original soul. He watched as multiple versions of Sonic the Hedgehog entered the room, although some of them had different colors for their fur/quills.

One was a green hedgehog; one he'd taken from that version of Mobius who had long since turned to Evil. He was a curious thing that Green Sonic, he had long since lost his sanity which was due to losing his older siblings and allowed X to take over his body and turn him into a being similar to himself. He liked to call himself X's true son due to how his demonic magic was flowing through his veins as though it were a gift and nothing more.

The others were different takes on what his original form could've been, mainly because they were fans of him. One looked like a massively large dog but had the appearance of a scary individual from the nightmares of children. While some of the others looked like smaller versions of himself, they held the appearance of Sonic, but they had different names. Such as Exceller, Exetior, Glitcher, and many more.

But that isn't why he called them forth, he wanted to test the abilities of the boy who allowed him entrance into his body. So he called up the very first one who he would love to see test the might of that rabbit boy named Midoriya Izuku.

"Exceller, please come here." X said, before he smiled at the individual.

Exceller was a perfect carbon copy of X, although he had his very own thoughts and ideas about what they should do. He used Sonic's body, but instead of having the X symbol on his body as a sign that he was his own person, he just had the crimson eyes and yellow teeth that X had himself. His sclera was still white, since he loved to toy with his food before attempting to kill them himself... but his job this time wasn't to kill the boy. After all he promised that he wouldn't break that kind of word, as he was an eldritch being he could easily destroy it with a wave of his hand, but since he gave his word, he wouldn't do it.

"Yes Lord X?" Exceller questioned.

"I have a job for you to complete, and I would love to see how you could torture the boy while you do it." X said, as Exceller stared up at him.

"You don't wish for us to kill everyone on this world?" Exceller questioned confused.

"I had made a bargain with the boy of this world... and I do not break my bargains and promises. But we never agreed that we'd give him a torturous time whilst living in this world." X said, smirking at Exceller.

"So we're not killing anyone from this world? Just torturing them and... letting them go?" Exceller questioned.

"That is what I told you to do, yes." X said, his smirking face turning into a frown.

"We are demonic beings sir! We should be pillaging this world and moving onto the next!" Exceller said, deeply confused but willing to follow orders.

"You are to do as I say! Without question Exceller, otherwise I will make do on my threat 10,000 years ago when I first saved you from those pitiful humans who had given you such trauma!" Lord X growled at Exceller as the room of Exe's had disappeared from sight.

"Y-Yes sire! I-I will do my very best in order to torture the boy. Who is the boy you wish for me to torture? And how should I do it?" Exceller questioned confused but fearful.

"His name is Midoriya Izuku, his soul inhabits the body of a Rabbit Mobian that has green fur. Last time I checked he lived with the Freedom Fighters under the leadership of Sally Acorn of the Acorn Kingdom." Lord X said, as Exceller waited a little while longer.

"What do you wish to ask again?" X questioned, getting more angered.

"How should I torture the boy sire?" Exceller questioned, not looking up at his superior.

"Torture him however you like, but... be sure to not kill anyone he knows and loves. He cannot be allowed to get vengeance against us, after all... he has no clue that we've come to this world again after all." Lord X said, as he waved Exceller off.

The creature immediately left the area before rushing towards the nearest high-rise that he could use in order to find the boy.

As for Lord X he could only smirk towards the amount of people within his vicinity. They were mostly Heroines and those who worked for Heroes, including a young woman who had been with the villains and worked for them actively. Smiling to himself, he used his telekinesis in order to pull them all close to him before licking each one on the cheek as he let out a horrifying laughter that echoed across the entire room.

On the other side of the base, the blue haired heroine was laying in the cage. She had been angry at how her mentor had been charmed by that creature's inescapable grip of love and passion... she had been forced to watch as he essentially raped her mentor without her knowledge. All before he had tried to do the same to her, and that was before he placed her in chains... she needed to get out and warn those within the world she was now on... Mobius she thinks it's called? In order to help them realize that there is a huge threat on this planet again... but she couldn't help but wonder if that boy who the entity had taken the body of was here.

'Please, someone save me!' She thought to herself before the door to her cage opened.

"Hello, little one. I think it's time we bring an end to Father's reign of terror upon this world." The Green Hedgehog with a large X on his stomach said.

"W-Who are y-you?" She asked, as the Green Hedgehog smirked at her.

"My name is Manic, Manic the Hedgehog. And I think it's high time that Lord X was extinguished from this plane of existence." Manic said, introducing himself.

"M-My name is Nejire-chan." She said, as Manic broke the chains on her body.

"I know exactly where that boy you were thinking about lives. If he questions why you're there, just tell him about Lord X and how he plans to torture him with a demon named Exceller." Manic said, as Nejire tilted her head at him.

"Why should I trust you? You have that mark on your stomach same as the others." Nejire questioned getting into a defensive stance.

"Because I'm the only one who broke you out of those chains... and I know what it's like to be ignored and beaten." Manic said, before opening a large Golden Ring next to himself.

"This should get you as close to his home as possible; the boy you are searching for doesn't have his human body anymore. Look for a Mobian who has rabbit ears and green fur, he shall be the one you need to help and receive help from." Manic said, as Nejire stared at him for a moment with caution.

All before she jumped into the giant ring and disappearing from the area. Manic stared at the spot where Nejire had once been before letting out a smile on his face before glancing down the hallway hearing the sounds of sexual debauchery happening and letting out a shudder. He turned away from the cage before using an illusion to create a new version of Nejire in the chains that he'd broken and hidden the real chains away before leaving the place. He looked at the fox lady as she stared at him in fear before he opened a giant ring for her as well before cutting off her chains and telling her the same thing.

This time however, the fox lady didn't even hesitate before leaping into the giant ring and disappearing from the area. Manic let out a huff of air before looking at the final prospect of his decision of ultimately leaving Lord X's side and influence. The part of him that thought that what he was currently doing was what his older brother, Sonic, would do since he would never appreciate his youngest brother actively taking part in slavery, rape and many more. Opening the cage holding the horned girl, he knelt down in front of her before patting her head as though he were her older brother.

"A-Are you g-going to h-hurt me?" The little girl asked, confused and massively scared.

"No, my name is Manic. Manic the Hedgehog. And I'm going to teleport you to someone who will actually be able to protect you from any and all threats within this world." Manic explained as he tore the chains from her little arms and legs.

"W-Who c-can protect m-me? I-I am a c-curse." The little girl asked, tears flooding her eyes.

"His name is Midoriya Izuku, and he lives in a forest near Central City. Just a few meters away from the Rabbit family household, just go to the house hidden in the forest and knock on his door. I am definitely sure that he would gladly help you." Manic said, before opening a giant ring.

The little girl looked between Manic and the Giant Ring before giving his body a hug. Manic placed his arms around her as he felt as though he'd made his big brother proud before he picked her up and tossed her through the giant ring he'd created. Once she was gone, he let out a few huffs of air, before he left the area making sure that his presence was replaced with one of the others that way X wouldn't think it was him who had done this. After all, he was X's true heir and son. He would not risk himself doing this without having a plan to take out his father and become the new Eldritch entity of the Void Dimension.

Walking away from the area, his eyes suddenly lost their crimson glow and replacing them with his original color. And for a moment, his entire eyes were replaced with pure white eyes before they were replaced with his crimson gaze that Lord X had given him. Smiling to himself, he saw a small vestige of Sonic smiling at him giving the green hedgehog a thumbs up before disappearing into the air. Manic had a stray tear fall from the side of one of his eyes before he continued walking away from the area.

It wasn't until the next day that X had found out that someone had broken into his cages and set free not one, not two but three of his prisoners.

Chapter Text

Eri would find herself appearing just outside of a giant forest. Looking around the area, she remembered the words of Manic as he spoke to her in that dungeon. She didn't know if that Hedgehog was lying to her, but she couldn't tell if he wasn't either. So she couldn't decide to follow his advice before his words filtered through her thoughts as she hesitated.

"A-Are you g-going to h-hurt me?" The little girl asked, confused and massively scared.

"No, my name is Manic. Manic the Hedgehog. And I'm going to teleport you to someone who will actually be able to protect you from any and all threats within this world." Manic explained as he tore the chains from her little arms and legs.

"W-Who c-can protect m-me? I-I am a c-curse." The little girl asked, tears flooding her eyes.

"His name is Midoriya Izuku, and he lives in a forest near Central City. Just a few meters away from the Rabbit family household, just go to the house hidden in the forest and knock on his door. I am definitely sure that he would gladly help you." Manic said, before opening a giant ring.

Shaking her head slightly, Eri gained a fearful determination and walked through the entrance of the forest. Walking through the early thicket, she had pulled her arms up to her chest in order to protect her torso from any threat. Her horn flickered with unknown power before she forced it to stop through sheer force of will.

Moving through the forest, she had been looking in all directions for where this Izuku Midoriya's home would possibly be. Eri hadn't been in this world for very long, so she didn't know if she could trust this Izuku Midoriya as of yet. But at the same time, she couldn't ignore how Manic had told her that Izuku was someone to be trusted with her life.

She passed through another part of the thicket in the woods before coming across a peculiar scene in front of her. There were a bunch of blue, brown, black, pink and purple floating creatures moving about and they kept saying the word Chao. Tilting her head at that, Eri decided to walk closer to them as they all flocked towards her.

She was the first human to ever find them all and they all joyously danced around Eri. The little girl looking in her direction as though she were something they hadn't seen before. Eri would decide that this group of weird creatures would protect her as much as they could before she found this Izuku Midoriya.

Staying with the Chao, as she soon learnt that was what they were, she had stayed under their care for a few hours. She soon was capable of eating solid foods and drinking water easily without any kind of assistance. Once she was about to play with the little Chao's she heard something move in the bushes nearby.

Tilting her head at that, she looked at the nearby Chao who had looked at the bush ready to flee when ready. Eri had followed their lead before a set of green rabbit ears poked out from above the bush itself causing Eri to tilt her head a bit. Soon after the ears were poking out from above the bush, a green rabbit with green eyes had soon entered the area of the Chao.

Looking at the rabbit in general, Eri could easily tell that this one was a male. He stood just a bit taller than she had at around 4'11 in height... and from how comically large his hands and feet were she slowly tilted her head at him.

"I could've sworn I heard a little girl over here." The rabbit muttered to himself.

"W-Who are you?" Eri asked, as the rabbit's eyes centered on her form immediately.

"My name is Midoriya Izuku! Although, my name has long since been changed to Izuku the Rabbit!" Izuku said, rubbing under his nose a little.

"I thought you'd be a human." Eri said, walking closer to him.

"I was a human before coming here, but um... yeah. I was transformed into what is called a Mobian when I was brought to this world." Izuku said, chuckling a little bit.

"Can... can you keep me safe?" Eri asked, as Izuku looked at her with alarm.

"Is someone chasing after you? If they are I know you will fit right in with the Rabbit family!" Izuku said, as he knelt down to her height.

"Please! I don't want to go back with the evil hedgehog again." Eri cried out as she hugged Izuku as tight as she could trembling.

Izuku wrapped his arms around Eri as he glanced at each of the chao. They all gave him a smile before moving back to playing with one another once more. Izuku picked Eri up before moving back through the forest in order to get back to Vanilla's home. The ride for Eri was bouncy but at the same time, she was warm in his hug as she snuggled closer to him.

Wasn't much longer before Eri would soon fall asleep in his arms. By the time he arrived at the Rabbit household, he had placed Eri on the couch under a blanket in order to sleep. It seemed as though the young girl couldn't sleep as much when she was with that evil Hedgehog she mentioned. It made Izuku's blood boil at the thought though.

But that brought a whole slew of questions in Izuku's head.

Who had taken her hostage? Who was the evil Hedgehog? And most importantly, how many others are like Eri in that evil hedgehog's grasp?

Izuku would then continue to keep an eye on her for the rest of the evening. As it was dark out when he found her, after all... Izuku couldn't become a Hero if he couldn't even help a little girl who asked him for help right?

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Over the course of the next few hours, Izuku would do everything in his power to make sure that Eri would remain safe within the Rabbit household. He had kept an eye on Eri because of the horn on her head would spark out from time to time due to her power activating. So as he softly whispered sweet nothings into her ear whenever she had a nightmare the power deactivated.

The simple fact this little girl, who couldn't look much younger than 7, was so fearful of a hedgehog, Izuku had to call Sonic about this. It wasn't as though he didn't trust the blue blur, but it was a matter of principal since he wanted to mark him out as a potential predator. The blue blur soon arrived at the rabbit household within seconds after receiving the call from Izuku.

"Hey! It's me, Sonic! Can I come in?" Sonic's voice rang out from the other side of the door.

"Yes, please keep it quiet though. The little one is napping on the couch." Izuku said, as Sonic nodded and entered the house.

"Sorry I didn't come to your concert the other week. I was busy fighting Eggman." Sonic said, giving a sad expression.

"Don't worry about it. I didn't call you here about that, I just wanted to ask you a question." Izuku said, as Sonic nodded seriously.

"Is it about the little human sleeping on Vanilla's couch?" Sonic asked, folding his arms.

"Yeah, have you seen her anywhere? I know I can trust you Sonic, but I just need to be sure she wasn't referring to you." Izuku said, as Sonic grimly nodded.

"I haven't seen that little girl anywhere before. But there is one thing I should tell you, there are a bunch of humans and Mobians walking around Central City. They are talking about how they were once Heroes of another world and acting out in saving those of Central City from Eggman's forces." Sonic stated with a grim expression on his face.

"That's good, she spoke about an evil hedgehog who had kept her hostage. I was just hoping that she wasn't referring to you." Izuku said, breathing a sigh of relief.

"So, who broke her out if it wasn't you?" Sonic questioned.

"She hasn't told me as of yet, was hoping to give you that information later when she finally got enough rest to talk." Izuku said, with a shrug.

"Well you keep at it, I'd love to see that little girl smile." Sonic said, with a wink and a thumbs up.

"See you around." Izuku said, as Sonic nodded.

"Catch you later!" The blue blur said, before leaving the house and speeding away.

"You would think that with how fast he goes, that the police would try and pull him over for speeding." Vanilla said, chuckling.

"I would think so too. But he's Sonic, they won't be capable of catching him unless they send Shadow or Tails after him." Izuku said, chuckling as well.

For the remainder of the day, the two would make lunch and dinner for the entire Rabbit household. Rouge and Surge coming by to say hello to the Rabbit mother and daughter before heading out to do their own thing. After giving the resident green rabbit, a kiss on the lips and a light pat on the shoulder as he focused on the little sleeping girl.

And as the hours of the day would pass by, Izuku finally found the little girl moving around and slowly waking up from her slumber. When she opened her eyes, Izuku had already leaning over her with a sad smile. She watched as his hand slowly moved her hair out of the way of her face before he brought a comb to it and started to brush her hair.

The two stayed quiet as Izuku thought about what to ask her. He didn't know who she was, but apparently, she knew exactly who he was based on another person's knowledge. So the question he should be asking is who she got information about him from. He was about to ask the question on his mind when Eri spoke up.

"Sorry." She said, looking sad at the ground.

"What are you apologizing for? You haven't done anything wrong." Izuku asked, in a soft voice.

"I came here, now the monster is going to look for you." She replied to him in a sad tone.

"Who is this... monster that you speak of? And where is he?" Izuku asked, in a kind but soft tone.

"I-I don't k-know where h-he is... b-but he looks like a... h-human v-v-version of you." The little girl said staring at Izuku with slight fear.

"Human version of me? Wait, did he tell you his name?" Izuku asked, alarmed.

"H-H-He called himself... L-Lord X." Eri said, staring at him in fear and sadness.

"Don't worry... um... what's your name?" Izuku asked, looking at her.

"E-E-Eri." She said, shivering.

"Don't worry Eri-chan, I'll keep you safe from Lord X. I think it's time I told the others about his return, thank you for telling me this Eri-chan." Izuku said, standing up catching the little girls attention.

"Y-You won't leave me... right?" Eri asked, concerned and fearful.

"Not for very long, I'm just going to call the others to set up a meeting at my house." Izuku said, bringing her to the window.

"You see that house over there, hidden behind the trees?" Izuku asked, as Eri nodded.

"That is where the meeting I will be having with my friends will take place. Just know that you aren't in trouble, just that we're going to come up with a way to stop whatever plans Lord X has right now." Izuku said, patting Eri's head softly.

"O-Okay... so l-long as you d-don't leave me." Eri said, hugging him tight.

"I wouldn't hope to leave you for very long Eri-chan." Izuku said, hugging her back.

Off in the other side of the living room, Uraraka, Cream, Vanilla, Rouge and Surge watched Izuku hugging Eri. They saw the look in his eyes as he kept watch over her, it was as though some kind of paternal instinct in him, or sibling instinct had taken over. His eyes never leaving Eri's sleeping form, or her now awake form that he held in his arms for a second.

They watched as he calmed the girl down as she had begun to cry in his hold. Neither one letting go of the other, as Eri hoped that Izuku wouldn't let her go again. For Eri, she had never felt this kind of warmth from someone she'd never met before. It was... nice to have this kind of warmth coming from a boy who was like a brother she never had.

She wished he was there to save her from the bird man back when she was still under the control of the evil bird man. But beggars can't be choosers.

Chapter Text

Nejire found herself in the streets of Central City. The young heroine looking about the place in her torn up and bloody Hero Costume. She limped across the alleyway as she breathed heavily from the amount of energy she'd used in order to leave the compound Lord X was in. Her eyes let out small tears of fear and pain as she remembered how her mentor was charmed.

The fact that Lord X had managed to get her mentor to bend to his will, it deeply terrified her as she'd been able to resist it. Everyone else in her world were incapable of resisting the entities charms and she couldn't help but wonder if anyone else were left alone in her reality. Not that she even knew that Lord X had destroyed the planet after they all were brought to this world.

She slowly made her way through the streets, using her quirk so little that others thought that she was one of the homeless. They pointedly ignored her appearance as they were more focused on keeping themselves safe from any and all harm. Nejire didn't blame them for caring more about their own safety rather than her own.

But at this point in time? She really wishes that Tamaki, Mirio and Ryukyu were still around to help her out of this depression. Nejire felt as though she had lost everything she had called home, everything that she cared for. As far as Nejire was concerned, she wanted to attack the person who sent that... creature to destroy their world.

But the Heroic part of her mind had told her that she would be no different from the entity who had attacked indiscriminately. So as she took a deep breath, she continued to make her way through the city, searching for any kind of way to find whoever this Midoriya Izuku was. Maybe he could help her get her mentor and friend back from the clutches of that vile entity.

By the time she had reached the end of the alleyway, Nejire came across a park. Blinking softly at whatever was there, she came across a sight that allowed her to recognize someone. The person who had been sitting on a bench nearby had long black hair with a gray scarf around their neck. Not only that, but the man was watching those weird anthropomorphic people running around, even the children.

There was something familiar about the person she came across, as when he turned to look at her, she recognized him immediately.

"Aizawa-sensei?" She asked, hope building in her chest.

"Hado?" Aizawa questioned, as he stared at her in shock.

"I-It's really you!" She called out, rushing the man and hugging him tight.

"Hado, what happened to you?! Who did this!" Aizawa questioned, his protective nature coming into play.

"T-That vile creature... not the people you were looking at... that... thing. He took my mentor and friends away from me, he killed everyone that I cared about. He took me into his fold, wanting nothing more than to make me his... I managed to escape from him with the assistance of someone else. They were similar to a hedgehog I think, but he manifested a weird giant ring and told me to search for someone." Nejire said, staring up at her sensei.

"What is their name?" Aizawa questioned immediately.

"He said the boy's name is Midoriya Izuku." Nejire said, as Aizawa nodded.

"Then we should ask around for those who know about the boy. He could tell us what kind of place we're now in." Aizawa said, bringing her to the nearest people around.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

It took multiple hours, but the two managed to find out some information about Midoriya Izuku. The way they recognized the name meant that the boy was here due to outside interference. This also allowed them to know that this Midoriya was here and near the city. Now, all they needed to do was find someone who was well known and knew about Izuku.

It didn't take much longer than a few hours, some lunch, and the sun nearly setting in the distance before they came across a... peculiar house. The entire thing was shaped in the head of a fox, their smile being the doorway towards the inside. Although, it did look a little arrogant of the owner to plaster their face as the house itself.

"Jeez, to think that the people in this world are this arrogant. We need to get this over with, once we finish questioning this Miles 'Tails' Prower, we head out." Aizawa said, looking at the paper showing the foxes house address.

"Hopefully he knows where this Midoriya is." Nejire said, as she had bandages over her body.

The two walked up to the house and knocked on the door. Hearing the sound of things cluttering around, a sound of feet smacking the ground the two huffed a little. It was nice to hear the sounds of someone crashing about in order to reach the front door. But it wasn't longer until the door swung open revealing what appeared to be an anthropomorphic fox with goggles over their head.

"Hello there! My names Tails, to what do I owe the pleasure of getting this visit?" Tails questioned, holding a wrench in his right hand.

"Hello there, Mr. Prower. I'd like to ask you a few questions, preferably about a certain person you might know. Once we're done questioning you we will be out of your way." Aizawa said, as Tails immediately gained a serious expression.

"Do you work for Eggman?" He questioned.

Aizawa and Nejire blinked at the fox, tilting their heads at the name.

"I'll take that as a no, come in! We should talk without anyone hearing us, you never know how nosy people are here in Central City." Tails said, ushering the two inside.

"Thanks for the hospitality, we won't stay too long though." Aizawa said, nodding to the fox in appreciation.

"It's what a Hero should do! I want to become a Hero like Sonic, and I'm going about it in my own way. Through machines!" Tails happily said, his tails swishing behind him.

The trio walked through the house, Tails even noticing the injuries on Nejire's form and bringing her to a healing chamber. One that they'd transformed one of Eggman's robots into after a particularly bad fight where Sonic needed healing in the past. As Nejire was wearing a large white cloak covering her entire body, the fluid covered her body as an oxygen mask covered her mouth and nose.

The fluid caused her to pass out, giving her the chance to finally sleep. Aizawa, however sat down at a table nearby as he watched the small fox begin to get some vitals up. The man nodding at the fox for clearly knowing how to care for individuals who were injured.

"Alright, now that she's healing inside there... how can I assist you?" Tails questioned, twirling his tails around and floating to a nearby table.

"Thank you for this, really. But we are looking for someone, a green hedgehog had given my charge... Hado, a person of interest to search for. But nobody we've talked to knows about him." Aizawa said, as Tails nodded.

"Well I know just about everyone in this city and the nearby forest! You've come to the right place, so how can I help you?" Tails boasted before asking.

"We're looking for a Midoriya Izuku, I don't know why the green hedgehog mentioned that name. But it's a name that had gone missing about a year and a half before an... entity came to our world and destroyed it." Aizawa said, as Tails froze.

Aizawa caught onto the freeze in the animals' eyes as he slowly looked down before pulling out a phone. The Hero watched as Tails placed his phone on the table before placing it on record, all before looking up at him with nothing more than an angered scowl on his face. Then he spoke in a tone that belied a lot of anger and hatred.

"How did you come across that name?" Tails angrily questioned.

"I didn't come across it myself, my charge did. She was in the hands of an entity who had taken her by force, and this green hedgehog knew about that name. Nejire, had told me this hedgehog told her that he was the only one who could feasibly help her." Aizawa said, as Tails nodded.

"He's already been through enough, what makes you think that he'd willingly help you now?" Tails asked, as Aizawa blinked at him.

"What are you talking about?" Aizawa questioned.

"Was your home, called Earth? And the country called Japan?" Tails questioned as Aizawa nodded.

"Yes. Why do you ask?" Aizawa asked, confused.

"Well needless to say... your reality deserved what it got. Not those who were innocent, but there are a lot of people in your world who weren't kind to Midoriya." Tails said, as Aizawa's eyes hardened.

"How unkind are you talking about?" Aizawa asked.

"Enough to give him PTSD of explosions for a good few months that we'd had him on Mobius. The way he was scared of almost everything and everyone, it messed with us. We'd never met someone who was so fearful of everything." Tails said, clenching his fists.

"PTSD. How long did it take for him to get over it?" Aizawa asked, concerned.

"It took around at least 5 months before he managed to get over it. He relapses every now and then, but it's greatly helped by his girlfriends. They've helped him get over the problems his past has given him, but anyway why are you searching for him?" Tails explained before asking.

"Like I said, Nejire was told by this green hedgehog that he could help her. How, I don't know... but I'd rather be helped by someone who is from Japan than not." Aizawa said, as Tails nodded.

"Izuku lives in the forest just outside of Central City. He currently lives with Vanilla and Cream, but last time I checked he moved out and made a house nearby the Rabbit household. They recently received another arrival there about two days ago. I'm sorry for what that little girl had gone through." Tails said, growling at the ground.

"Can you tell me what this entities name was though? It would be nice to know about who this entity was that destroyed your world and sent you all here." Tails said, as Aizawa nodded.

"Based on Nejire's words, his name is Lord X. I don't know how he came to our world, but he killed every single Hero and Villain in our world. All before destroying the planet." Aizawa said, as Tails' face faulted and began to sweat hard.

"L-L-L-Lord X-X?" Tails asked, fearfully.

"You sound like you've fought this entity before." Aizawa said, as Tails gulped a little.

"Well, I think it's better if you hear it from Izuku's perspective. But follow these directions..." Tails said, writing down some coordinates to Izuku's home.

"With any luck, you should be able to find him and his home following them exactly. Also here is a map of Mobius, that way you can find your way around. If what you say is true, we need to prepare for another siege of the planet by this entity. I need to find Sonic, that way he won't be possessed again." Tails said, before handing the items to Aizawa and rushing away.

Aizawa blinked at how fearful the fox was before grabbing the items. Moments after Tails had rushed away from the house, Nejire's injuries were healed. Pulling the young woman out of the healing chamber, he helped her get her Hero Suit back on before they left the building. They moved through the city looking over each and every coordinate that they could find.

Soon enough, by the time it was around dinner the two arrived near the forest that Tails had mentioned earlier. Aizawa looked to Nejire and asked if she could use her quirk, after getting an affirmative from the girl the two moved through the forest with purpose. Jumping from tree to tree, and flying through the air for Nejire, the two made their way through the forest.

From how far away Central City was from the Rabbit home, Aizawa had to hand it to this Midoriya Izuku. He was very good at keeping himself from being found by those who actively searched for him. As though he didn't want to be found, but after that talk with the fox he had a bad feeling about what had happened to their home world.

Taking a deep breath, the two eventually found themselves near two houses in the middle of the forest. Glancing between each house, they chose the one on the left and waited by the door and took deep breaths to calm their hearts. Raising their hands to the door, they knocked on it softly and waited for whoever was inside to open the front door.

After a few minutes of silence, the two thought that nobody was home before the door was opened by a green rabbit wearing only pants, gloves and shoes. He blinked up at them with confusion for a moment before his eyes lit up in glee and surprise. Aizawa was about to speak to the rabbit before the two were pulled inside the house and saw something peculiar.

Two anthropomorphic animal women were in the kitchen swaying very... sensually, and in a highchair was a little girl with a horn on her head. The two blinked at that, before the rabbit brought them over to the couch and sat them both down before calling out to the two in the kitchen. Telling them to make enough for 6 people, as they had guests.

Hearing the replies from the kitchen, the rabbit walked back into the living room with a smile on his face before speaking.

"Hello Eraserhead! This is the first time I've seen you in person, and you're the one who won the Sports Festival of the Second Years! It's so nice to meet you both!" The rabbit said, as both stared at him in confusion and worry.

"How do you know about me?" Eraserhead questioned.

"Oh, I've seen you on video's back on Earth! Well, I'm not sure what happened to it but I hope everything is fine." The rabbit said, as Nejire spoke up.

"Are you Midoriya Izuku?" Nejire asked, as the rabbit paused before nodding.

"We need your help." Aizawa said, as both he and Nejire bowed to him.

"What do you both need help with? Is something wrong?" Izuku asked, as the two nodded.

"An entity had come to Earth, Japan specifically. And they killed everyone, and I mean everyone." Aizawa said, as they both saw Izuku wince.

"T-That wasn't part of the deal." Izuku grunted before falling to his knees.

"What deal?" Nejire asked, now getting nervous about Izuku.

"He was supposed to only hurt those who made my life a living hell... not destroy your world. Where is he? Where is Lord X right this moment?" Izuku asked, as Nejire couldn't help but shrug.

"I was broken out of his compound earlier this week. I've been trying to find you for the last two days since I was broken out... but a green hedgehog told me you'd be able to help." Nejire said, becoming suspicious of Izuku's behavior something Aizawa spoke up about.

"You know a lot about this Lord X, what is he to you?" Aizawa asked, as Izuku gulped.

"He's the one who attacked Mobius about a few days after I arrived here. He nearly killed everyone we knew and cared for in this world. But it was after a long fight, and a deal I made with him that he left Mobius alone." Izuku said, his ears drooping.

"What was this deal?" Nejire asked.

"To spare Mobius, in order for him to introduce pain to those of Japan who had made my life a living hell." Izuku said, tears falling from his eyes.

Chapter Text

Izuku sat across from Nejire and Aizawa, the two completely silent after hearing Izuku's last words to them. The simple fact that he made a deal with Lord X in order to sacrifice their world in order to save Mobius, a well of anger built up in them. Their friends, family, loved ones... not to mention all those who were innocent in their world all of them were killed due to the decision of this boy who had tried to save another world. It was horrible in their eyes, Izuku had essentially sentenced their reality to death and that there was nothing he could do to change his mind on the fact.

Izuku however, from their point of view, looked as though he was not having a good time talking about this. Yes, he just told them about how he doomed their reality to the whims of a Void-born God of Destruction... but at the same time they wouldn't have met him had he not done that. Sure, it was infuriating that Midoriya wouldn't at least try and make Lord X move to a planet that wasn't their own, and his own reality but everything was done in the past. But that didn't stop them from sighing in exasperation and question his thought process when he decided to doom his home planet and reality to the Death God.

"Do you have any idea the amount of people who were killed by Lord X after your decision?" Aizawa questioned.

"Yes, and to be honest I had only hoped he would attack those who were evil. Manipulative and cruel in every sense of the word, my deal with him was to kill or avenge the life I had lived until I was brought to Mobius." Izuku said, as he looked completely worn out.

"We lost everyone we know and love, all due to a decision you made. That isn't right, why couldn't we have a choice in the matter?" Nejire asked, fury hidden behind her gaze.

"I... I had no idea what I was supposed to do in the moment. I had gone to Lord X to make a deal with him, it just sort of... came out. I know that there is no kind of excuse that I can make for my decision, and I will take it to my grave. I know I'm going to hell for dooming your reality to infinite amounts of pain and misery." Izuku replied.

"What caused you to make such a decision without thinking about how the innocent of our world would think?" Aizawa questioned.

"What would you do if you were in a position where everyone you had ever met, hated you for just wanting to achieve your dreams? Where no matter what you did in order to achieve said goals, your peers had beat you, psychologically destroyed you, and most importantly were alone without anyone to help you?" Izuku questioned.

"What would you do if you were suddenly taken from the reality that had a philosophy where Might makes Right, and placed into a world where everyone treated you as though you were an actual human being? Although, you now looked like the very people who treated you as though you were one of them." Izuku asked, now looking more tired than anything.

"Because I know for a fact, that many people would sacrifice our world just in order to save their own hides." Izuku said, his face showing a tired fury.

"That doesn't mean that you can doom billions of lives to instant death at the hands of a Death God!" Aizawa growls.

"I was treated as though I wasn't human due to a lack of a power to be born with. I was bullied, beaten and left to die at the side of the road where nobody helped me, Aizawa-san. What the fuck do you think would happen if I were to suddenly appear in a world where everyone actually gave a shit about me?" Izuku growled back at Aizawa.

As Izuku and Aizawa continued to argue with one another about the morality about ending the lives of billions compared to the world of Mobius. Nejire had been watching Izuku become far more defensive in his posture, as though he were preparing for a fight to begin to break out between him and her teacher. But his words begun to trigger something in her mind as she remembered a lot of people from the schools she'd gone to who were treated the same way as him. They weren't born without a power of their own, they had just weaker powers than most but the similar things that happened to them was very similar to Izuku's story.

Sure she could be angry at how Izuku had basically given Lord X their world on a silver platter. But that didn't mean that there aren't millions of lives here on Mobius, especially since there was a mixture of humans and Mobians on this planet as well. The Mobians being outnumbered 10:1 on Mobius considering humanity had proliferated out of control on this planet, reaching what the numbers Earth had reached back in the early 2000's. Looking back into Izuku's very own emerald orbs, she saw that he was still hurting from such a decision being made in the past... and she let out a quiet huff of air.

Glancing over his shoulder, she found that Surge and Rouge were glaring at Aizawa. The man still not seeing how he was making Izuku appear more and more uncomfortable with how both him and Izuku were now practically screaming at one another. The boy wasn't his student, he wasn't the boy's father, and he most certainly wasn't someone who had been taking care of him as he had taken care of himself since he was 6 years old. At least that is what she thinks, as the boy never made a mention of his mother.

"You doomed a planet of people to save a planet that had far less people living on it!?" Aizawa practically yelled.

"I FUCKED UP OKAY! I STILL LIVE WITH THE CHOICE I MADE IN ORDER TO SAVE THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO CARED ABOUT ME! SO, FUCK ME FOR WANTING TO ACTUALLY HAVE A LIFE THAT WAS ACTUALLY WORTH LIVING!" Izuku screamed in Aizawa's face.

"..." Aizawa stared at Izuku with silence before standing up and heading to the door.

"You know, maybe the reason your even on this planet is due to the fact you really are not the Hero that you make yourself out to be. Because in my eyes, you are nothing more than the villain who had killed billions in order to live a life that was better than your original one." Aizawa said, leaving the house.

Nejire looked between her leaving teacher's form and Izuku who had stared at the door with nothing more than a shocked expression on his face. Sure her sensei was technically correct in his choice of words towards Midoriya but looking at the hurt and sad expression taking over his face. She really hated how cruel her teacher could be towards people he really doesn't like when he first meets them. She looked into the kitchen, the two Mobian women who were staring at her as well... holding the little girl who had been taken by Lord X and managed to escape with her earlier that week.

Their gaze were on her now, fury hidden behind their gaze as Izuku turned his own to her. He sat down on the ground, his comically large ears drooping over his face as she watched tears fall from his eyes and hit the ground as he sniffled. Nejire went to reach out to him, but when she glanced at the two women glaring at her from the kitchen, she found them watching her every move as Nejire soon placed herself on the ground in front of Izuku. She could hear him mumbling about how it was either destroying the only people who were kind to him, and essentially getting himself killed or killing those who treated him as less than human.

She reached a palm out and placed it on his shoulder, sure she was still pissed about how her world was destroyed. But at the same time, she would probably do the same thing if she were in his shoes where nobody liked her and wanted nothing more than for her to die. It wasn't often that she had leveled her own mind out and made it recognize the very same things that a villain would do in the bid to either save their families and friends or themselves. But Izuku wasn't just a villain, at least in the eyes of her Heroic mindset or her Sensei's eyes. He was just a kid who had to make a life-threatening decision that would get all the new friends he had killed or kill those who treated him wrong.

There was no good choice in that decision, it was either lose the people who treat him like a friend should or lose those who treated him badly.

"Hey, I'm sorry for what my Sensei told you. It was wrong and honestly, as much as I would like to blame you for getting everyone I know and love killed. I can see it from your perspective, you had to choose to lose the ones you actively wanted to befriend, who actually treated you like a true friend would. Or you had to choose the ones who treated you as nothing more than a piece of trash on the side of the road. I may not agree with your decision at the end of the day, but I wouldn't be alive right now if it were for your choice." Nejire said, as she pulled her hand from his shoulder.

"A-All... All I had *sniff* e-ever wanted... was to just have... at least *sniff*... one friend. One who could *sniff*... actually like me." Izuku cried, rubbing his eyes as much as possible.

"I... I didn't... ask for *sniff*... any of this! I-I just... wanted to f-feel loved." Izuku said, trembling.

"And I'm sorry that you never felt that in our world, our reality. I'm pretty sure that I would've chosen this world too if I was in the same position as you." Nejire said, as Izuku whispered something that she barely heard.

"Y-You probably... wouldn't e-even be alive. Y-You wouldn't h-have been able to h-handle what I-I went through." Izuku whispered out.

"Well, then that means that you were stronger than I would've been. Had I gone through the life you had lived, I probably would be dead. And Izuku, I want you to hear me out before thinking less of me for saying this..." Nejire said, looking into his eyes softly pulling his ears away from his face.

She could see the tears falling from his large emerald eyes as she spoke again, tone soft.

"Your decision was made on the whim that you would lose everyone who was kind to you, right?" Nejire asked, as Izuku nodded slowly.

"Who's to say that our world wouldn't have had people who would treat you like a normal human being?" Nejire questioned, this time softer than her previous question.

Izuku's face scrunched up in what appeared to be concern as well as confusion. Shaking his head, he stared up at her... for Nejire it looked as though he were a little boy at the age of 3 who had done something terribly wrong. In her eyes, his expression looked as though he had done something so wrong that he didn't know how to fix it.

"I-I've n-never met anyone w-who had been like that, though." Izuku replied after a few seconds to recover from his emotional breakdown.

"And it's not your fault. You looked everywhere you could, right?" Nejire asked, receiving a nod in return.

"Had you tried looking outside of your hometown?" She asked again.

"N-No, I couldn't l-leave Musutafu. M-My mother wouldn't a-allow it, and I-I wouldn't last lone on t-the streets." Izuku said, as Nejire sighed before nodding.

"You probably wouldn't, but I'm pretty sure that you could've done so. You're still alive right now, and that means that you managed to live this long due to your determination to live." Nejire said, before continuing.

"That means you could've found someone who treated you as though you were a normal human being." Nejire softly said.

She pointedly ignored the scoffs from the kitchen as the two Mobian women had walked back inside to continue making dinner. Izuku looked up at her, as though she had said something that was inconceivable, but he eventually stood up and sat down on the couch next to her. Neither said a word as Izuku composed himself enough to speak to her again, although his mood was far more subdued.

"I'm sorry, I know that it won't change what I've done. And there is no g-going back from my choice, I will not r-regret making my decision now because someone doesn't like my choice." Izuku said, as Nejire nodded.

"And I'm sorry for not interfering with Aizawa-sensei. He lost someone in the past, in a villain attack. He blames himself for their death, and with him losing his other two friends... he didn't know what to do but blame whoever got them killed or enslaved." Nejire said, as Izuku sadly looked at the ground.

"I... I feel as though I should be punished for my decision though. A-Aizawa-san was right in that I was the villain of his story, someone who took everyone he cared about away with my decision to save everyone here on Mobius." Izuku said, as Nejire scoffed.

"He'll get over it, he's managed to do so before. Sure he'll be far more broken than he was the last time this happened, but that doesn't mean that he won't apologize for his words later." Nejire said, as Izuku shook his head.

"I-I'd rather not see him ever again, he's not as nice as I thought he'd be. He was one of the sole Heroes I looked up to aside from All Might. He was the Hero who had made my dream of becoming a Hero without a Quirk almost a reality." Izuku said, sighing.

"You can stay with Vanilla tonight; I'd rather not have you stay out on the streets." Izuku said, as Nejire nodded.

"Thank you, also Manic told me something before having me leave." Nejire said, as Izuku glanced at her with his eyes.

"Only you can defeat Lord X." Nejire said, before leaving through the front door.

Chapter Text

Deep within the furthest confines of one of his more abandoned bases, an egg-shaped man was seen typing unknown code onto a computer. His goggles blocking the view of the man's eyes as he twirled his bushy mustache, the expression on his face grim. He had been researching the multitude of sightings of Mobians with similar powers to Sonic and those Freedom Fighter brats.

It wasn't as though the man didn't want more allies on his side. It was the simple fact that they acted similarly to Sonic and the Freedom Fighters as a whole. Some were human, whilst the others were Mobian in appearance... but their actions spoke for their morals. They'd much rather help those that he would be attacking soon and letting out a brief sigh of sadness he looked to a nearby wall.

It was his latest test subject, one that had freely come to him searching for some kind of way to defeat someone that he'd managed to nearly kill on his own. Their name was Manic... Manic the Hedgehog... and they were the brother of Sonic the Hedgehog of another timeline. But due to falling in line with someone who was vastly superior to him in every way, he'd fallen from grace.

The light grew upon the man's face revealing it to be Dr. Ivo Robotnik, or in other words... Dr. Eggman. He twirled his mustache again before slamming his fist into the desktop in anger as he remembered the conversation he'd had with Manic earlier.

'Dr. Eggman, I have come here with something to give you.' Manic's voice rang out, Eggman immediately taking note of the hedgehogs' large X written in his chest.

"And why should I, Dr. Eggman, even attempt to assist you Manic?" Eggman questioned anger in his tone.

'Because Doctor, there is someone that we both hate more than Sonic. Someone so powerful, that the hedgehog that even my brother couldn't defeat on his own. Lord X, he's returned to Mobius.' Manic explained, as Eggman growled at the small green Hedgehog.

"Alright, I'll listen to your demands... but what is stopping me from using you against the Freedom Fighters as a whole after your mission?" Eggman questioned his face smirking evilly.

'Nothing, after I defeat Father with the cybernetics that I'd be getting from you. You can use my body however you wish, after all... you are a great Doctor.' Manic said, smirking just as evilly as him.

"You've got yourself a deal, Manic. Soon enough you shall be one of my more powerful members within my robotic army! And once we defeat that vile deity, we will take your power and pin it against the Freedom Fighters!!! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!" Eggman stated, shaking Manic's gloved hand laughing in the background.

Back to reality, Eggman was looking over the roboticization of Manic the Hedgehog. The green hedgehog looking as though he were impassive as the robotic wave of fluid moved over his entire body. Frowning when the large X appeared on Manic's body, Eggman ran through a series of mechanical code in order to keep Manic in his control.

It wasn't very often that a Mobian had come to him searching for a way to become a robotic monstrosity. And Eggman was nothing if not infamous for turning everything and everyone into robotic creatures that could never be turned back, save for rewriting the Universe. Yes he'd received the memories of those events happening multiple times over.

And if there was anything he could do in order to prevent Lord X returning back to Mobius in the future, it was to press that large red button in the middle console. He'd spent about a few months recreating the Universal Rewrite machine that Sonic destroyed last time. It took a lot of secretive collections of metallic stores that he'd bought the items to create the device, but he'd managed.

Taking a deep breath, he looked back at his latest Roboticization lubricant. It would be capable of covering a Mobian entirely within seconds. The only problem he'd been having was that the large X on Manic's chest continuously appeared on his chest every time the Roboticization happened. It was one singular problem after another; he couldn't afford to lose Manic now.

Looking over at another computer he found a small figure looking through the monitor screen towards Manic with confusion. This was also another development for the good doctor, he'd somehow, someway, managed to earn himself a very intelligent A.I. He'd named her Sage, as she had a great ability to control all his mechanical creations, something he'd given her personally.

Looking at her however, he couldn't help but wonder if she could be taken from him by Lord X as well. He seemingly could infect anything and everything with his mere presence on Mobius itself back when he last attacked. And they'd been fending him off for the last few decades, and each time Lord X had grown in power making him more dangerous.

And to hear that after a couple years, Lord X had returned? It was a Defcon Level 55 at this point, seeing as the deity could cause such damage that the world warped around him. And that was just from his presence being felt by Mobius alone! But to see that the world wasn't warping around his presence at this point in time, it meant that either he was holding back... or he was planning on doing something.

Dr. Ivo Robotnik| Eggman, was many things. A murderer, kidnapper of Mobians, creator of Roboticized humans and Mobians. But there was one thing he would never be, a passive man who let someone else take what rightfully belonged to himself. Even if it would take until the end of time in order to finally defeat Sonic in such a way that the hedgehog couldn't fight anymore.

Eggman will get what he wants, even if he has to attack early on. Which was what he was planning on doing today. But where to attack first?

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Eggman took his Egg-fleet and took off towards Central City. It would be the one place that he could attack in order to check out where Lord X could be found. He knew that he couldn't trust Sonic and Tails at this moment due to his last attack on the world. So he decided to spend his time actively gathering information on how fast Sonic can save the day. He could compare the speed to Lord X so that he could try and amplify the robotic hedgehog's speed to match his fathers. Sage sat next to him on a small chair within the headquarters inside the Egg-fleet as she looked about the place in general.

She looked about the place before finding her father sending his forces to attack Central City, the Agency that had been protecting the city defending pretty well. The Guardian Unit of Nations had shown itself to be a very good defense force capable of holding Eggman's forces off until Sonic arrived. But that was due to Eggman not sending his entire arsenal at the city.

Looking out the window, Sage would find Sonic and his allies within the Freedom Fighters coming in to save the day. She would analyze each and every move the hedgehog used as her father fought to his hearts content against the blue blur. And after analyzing Sonic's move set, she found that he greatly favored spin-dashes about 50% of the time, the other 50% just punching and kicking.

It was quite hilarious on how her father could attempt to defeat Sonic, all before the blue blur had managed to overwhelm him with sheer power. Eggman had always wanted to defeat Sonic with pure intelligence, and he trained himself from time to time alone when nobody watched. He may be a human, but that didn't mean he couldn't hit Sonic with his own fists.

By the time reinforcements had arrived to defend Central City, Eggman called his forces back in retreat. The egg-shaped man knew when he needed to have a tactical retreat in order to live another day not within the walls of a prison. But at the same time, he'd collected all the data he required in order to take his own fight over to Lord X.

He would be the first line of Defense for Mobius, and if he fell. Then it all came upon those within the Freedom Fighters in order to save the planet from such a vile being. Eggman chortled to himself as he walked onto the bridge of the ship and took command without any problems. Sonic and his friends attempted to climb aboard the ship, but it took off before they could get on.

The fight wasn't really that long all in all. Eggman came in, fought his enemies and was forced away from the city far easier than usual. Something that Sonic and those around him had noticed earlier on in the fight as Eggman usually threw everything he had against the Freedom Fighters. So as the Egg-Fleet had started their tactical retreat, Sonic rushed after them from the ground.

As this was all happening, Sage was watching Sonic chase after the fleet. Taking control of one of the ion canons that were attached to Eggman's head battleship, she fired at the hedgehog. This caught Eggman's attention as he growled in anger at how Sonic chased after him. This was supposed to be gathering information about him! Not for the hedgehog to think that something was wrong!

"Damn it! Send all Egg Forces towards the ground, keep Sonic busy at all costs! We cannot allow that blue bastard to figure out what my current plans are!" Eggman yelled, as Orbot and Cuebot got right to work.

"Um... sir? What is our current plans?" Orbot questioned confusedly.

"You won't find out until the plans are already underway! Now keep firing on that blasted Hedgehog!" Eggman yelled, as the robots did as they were asked.

It wouldn't be until a few more minutes later that Sage soon found herself floating at Eggman's side as Sonic appeared before them. He was stretching his limbs as he prepared for an overdramatic fight between the two of them. Eggman would glare at Sonic with nothing more than an impassiveness that was never seen from the horrible doctor.

"Hey egghead! What's going on? You've never gone that easy on us, especially at Central City!" Sonic called out, smug expression on his face.

"You will never find out why I went easy on you all today Sonic! Now, get a load of this!" Eggman called out, beginning their usual fight.

Lasers would be blasted from his main compartment of his egg-shaped hovercraft. Sonic bouncing across the entire place in order to dodge and weave through them. From what it appeared to be, Eggman was slowly getting annoyed with the hedgehog right now. Sonic took this as his chance to figure out what the doctor was even doing.

Tails had noticed earlier in the last few months that Eggman had been collecting a lot of material for some kind of attack. But the attack didn't feature what kind of threat Eggman had been building in order to attack them that early. But Sonic didn't mind if that meant destroying Eggman's plans right now before they could be fulfilled.

The two were about to slam into one another once more when they felt a chill down their spines before looking to their right and left respectively.

A short person appeared to be watching the two attack one another without any kind of mercy for the other's machinations. Once Eggman and Sonic got a closer look at who was looking in their general direction, they froze in place. After all, who wouldn't when the God of both the Void and Death itself had appeared in front of them?

Lord X had arrived on the battlefield as he looked between the two of them. It seemed as though he adopted Sonic's appearance, with a large black X on his chest. As though someone had scarred him in that form on his chest during a previous fight. His crimson red gaze looked between Eggman and Sonic as he took in their appearances.

Something was off with Lord X however, instead of actively attempting to kill the two of them he just watched them closely. Not enough to be very concerning, but as though he were searching them for information about something he'd lost. Both Eggman and Sonic glanced at one another, deciding to team up in order to fight this new threat.

"So it appears as though one of you holds onto my son. Can either of you care to explain how this is?" Lord X questioned, a notable frown on his expression.

"And if we don't tell you, Lord X?" Eggman questioned, his own crimson gaze hidden behind his goggles.

"If you do not tell me where my son is, then I will be left with no choice but to kill you both." X stated as he glared at the two.

"Listen here X, I don't know who or where your son is. But at the very least I need to ask you a question!" Sonic said, his face showing concern for his own safety and those of anyone nearby.

"Whatever is your question, Rat?" X questioned with an impassive expression to Sonic.

"What the hell are you even doing back here?! I thought you and Midoriya had a deal, that you'd stay back in his world!" Sonic questioned angrily.

Lord X stayed quiet, Eggman was actually wanting to know this information as well. Hearing from Sonic's turned brother from another Universe that X was back was very terrifying. But to hear why the creature was here now from the source would be perfect. The eldritch being just stood there looking between the two before a sick smile came to his face.

"I don't plan on staying for very long, just enough to scare the daylights out of Midoriya once more. He was one of my favorite victims of my previous attack, but also one of the more... brave ones. All in all, I certainly hope to meet him one last time in order to... say goodbye." Lord X said, with a sinister grin on his face.

Sonic and Eggman glared at X as the eldritch being just shrugged his shoulders before looking at Sage with nothing more than intrigue. He waved at the Artificial Intelligence in the capable hands of Eggman before disappearing, a mirage of his sinister smile being left behind for both Sonic and Eggman to see one last time.

"So... are we going to talk about that?" Sonic questioned Eggman.

"No, hedgehog. We will not." Eggman grunted back in return.

Chapter Text

The next day after the whole talk with Aizawa and Nejire, Izuku found himself sitting on the couch again. He had been overthinking about how the whole conversation about what had happened with Lord X destroying their reality, and how he could've informed them about his decision to destroy their home dimension in a softer way. But instead, he had just allowed his emotions to get the better of himself, not only that but it seemed as though he made sure that Hado-san wouldn't be friendly to him from this point onward. Rouge and Surge had told Izuku to his face that from how she acted to him, she wouldn't deny friendship but would take some time to get to that point.

But at the same time, Izuku didn't feel as though he deserved friendship with someone like Hado. The young woman looked as though she were a Hero Sidekick and had come to this world through happenstance through Lord X. Sighing to himself, his large, gloved hand rubbed over his face as he thought about how he could try and clarify about what would've happened had he not saved the lives of those on Mobius. Looking out the window, the dark sky was still covering the planet meaning that it was still in the middle of the night that he woke up in the middle of.

Standing up from where he sat on the couch, he walked into the kitchen and began to make breakfast. Izuku knew for a fact that the girls of the house were still asleep, but considering the fact that it was nearing early morning he thought he could make breakfast for them all. Within about an hour the breakfast of eggs, bacon and toast were sitting in the fridge as they cooled down to be used for later. Walking towards the front door, Izuku left a small note that he was going to the forest outside of the house in order to clear his head and that he couldn't go back to sleep.

Walking through the forest, Izuku had taken in the serenity of the forest itself. It was nice and quiet, something that he had fought to achieve in his original dimension... only for Bakugo to come out of nowhere each and every time he found serenity and cause mayhem and destruction. It didn't matter if Izuku was about to make a new friend, creating a new notebook, or something different... whenever that ash-blonde boy was nearby... Izuku couldn't have anything that helped him. Sighing to himself, Izuku sat down in front of a nearby tree in order to gather himself as he thought about what he should do for Hado and Aizawa.

Sure he didn't know either one of them, but he had essentially doomed their original dimension to decay and destruction. But at the same time, had he allowed Lord X to destroy all of Mobius then he would've been allowing a dark deity to destroy another worlds inhabitants and those who've lived here just as long as he had in his original dimension. It was a no-win situation, and the young man had no idea what to choose but keep the safety he had earned from Mobius itself rather than the dimension that he came from. The fact that he didn't want anything to do with Lord X after he sent the being away, wasn't the fact that he was prepared for him to return.

He was in the middle of his thoughts when he heard a twig snapping nearby, and snapping to attention Izuku searched the forest. Looking in each and every direction, he searched for whoever had tried to sneak up on him from behind, in front of himself, and on his sides. His eyes were snapping at attention in each direction as he tried his hardest in order to see what was going on at the moment, but his eyes soon fell upon Hado. The young woman looking at his very alert expression with something akin to hesitance as well as worry written on her expression.

"*Sigh* I thought that you were Lord X for a moment." Izuku sighed in relief.

"Why would I be Lord X?" Nejire questioned.

"I just got word from Tails, apparently the Dark Lord of the Dark Depths of the Void had wanted to speak to me about something." Izuku said, rubbing his forehead and temples in annoyance.

"Oh, that's probably due to how Eri and I escaped from his grasp." Nejire said, with a wince.

"It doesn't matter, the fact that he's out here searching for you both means that he has a reason to search for you both." Izuku said, with a sigh.

"You don't seem too happy about either of this or that." Nejire observed.

"I haven't been able to get any sleep due to what Aizawa-san said. I mean... some of what he said is true, but I'm not sure if he would make the very same decision I had if he suffered the exact same life I had." Izuku said, sitting back down near the tree.

"From what you told us the other night; it was pretty harrowing. I'm not going to judge you based on your decision, I am just a little sad that I couldn't at least say goodbye to my parents before it happened." Nejire said, as she sat down next to Izuku.

Neither one said a word after that, just enjoying the silence of the forest around them. Chao came out as the sun floated high above the forest, lighting up the area around them the Chao's fluttering by the two as they happily played with one another. Izuku even had a Chao lay down in his bed of hair, thinking that it was a really fluffy bed. Nejire giggled at how the Chao reacted to his head of hair as well as how happy they were when they fluttered about the boy himself.

"If I hadn't seen you with such an emotional breakdown a couple days ago... I wouldn't have thought you'd be this calm before." Nejire said, staring at Izuku.

"This doesn't usually happen all the time, I've also got a job as a musician. It's not much that I earn from it all, but it's enough to make my life happier... especially due to Rouge and Surge's presence. Eri is only here because Manic had told her to come to me." Izuku informed as Nejire nodded.

"Manic told me the same thing, but why are you the one that he said that could protect us?" Nejire asked, as Izuku sighed.

""Tails informed me about how I'm the key figure in multiple dimensions. My existence is the tether to each and every Universe that connects to one another, hell Sonic can run between dimensions... I wouldn't put it past the Universe to have Alternate forms of ourselves." Izuku stated.

"So there's multiple versions of you amongst the Multiverse? And the Multiverse is actually a thing?" Nejire asked.

"Well considering the fact that Sonic can run so fast that he can practically speed through different dimensions... yeah." Izuku said, as Nejire blinked at that.

"This Sonic, is he a good guy?" Nejire asked, as Izuku nodded.

"He may be a bit of an asshole when you first meet him, probably due to how he is with new people. But at the end of the day, he's more of a free-spirited individual who wants to make sure everyone can live their lives without fear as well as free." Izuku informed as Nejire nodded.

The two didn't speak for another few minutes, allowing themselves to drink in the silence. The birds and flickies chirping in the distance, some mating calls being released into the air by other animals. The two were about to fall asleep again when they heard another snapping of a twig and getting up and placing himself in front of her, Izuku soon found that it was Lord X... and he didn't appear to be even dismayed at Nejire's appearance here. The creature smirking at him with all the evil that a being from the Void could ever hold within his heart.

"Well I'll be, so this is where my prisoner went. No matter, I don't want them anyway." Lord X spoke in a very soothing tone.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

In the middle of Central City, Sonic and Eggman are actually working together in order to see what they could do. They had just finished their conversation with one another and Lord X just a few hours prior and were rushing towards the location that Izuku lived. The two had realized that Lord X would be visiting Izuku and the two wanted nothing more than to make sure that the person who saved their reality from destruction would stay alive. Especially since Lord X was very well known in the past to kill anything and anyone in order to see them reach the pinnacle of their emotional limit.

Sonic was a blue blur as he rushed through the streets, Eggman's hovercraft moving just as fast as he was in the air. The two were moving at the same speed as they glanced at one another, Eggman from the safety of the 16'' glass that protected him from Sonic's Spin-dash attacks in the past. Speeding through the streets, they passed civilians and Mobians alike as they made their way towards the Floral Forest.

Sonic leapt from building and vehicle alike in order to boost his already high speed even more. Eggman continued to follow after the blue blur as he sped down the streets of Central City all before the two arrived just outside of the Floral Forest. Stopping for a moment, the two watched the forest with nothing more than a concerned expression on their faces before sweat could be seen falling down the sides of their faces. Looking to one another, neither one said a word... but the expressions they held towards one another dared the other to leave the other to the mercy of such a powerful being.

"Got any quips that I need to prepare for Egghead?" Sonic questioned as he stretched his limbs.

"Nothing more than what you already know you blasted hedgehog." Eggman grumbled before taking off into the forest on foot.

"Not taking your Egg hovercraft?" Sonic questioned with a smug grin.

"That thing would just constantly hit all the trees in the area; it would only be a hinderance. We need to find Midoriya, I don't care if you all aren't trusting of my presence here, but I need to make sure that the savior of Mobius isn't dead." Eggman retorted with a blunt expression.

"Well then, let's get out there and search for Midoriya. I'll go ahead, make sure X doesn't find you Egghead!" Sonic said, rushing off.

"As if I would allow myself to be seen out here all on my own." Eggman grumbled to himself.

Eggman took off after Sonic as the two searched the entirety of the forest for Izuku. Neither one being capable of even finding the green bunny rabbit as they searched every single acre, inch, centimeter of the forest without any kind of luck. The two met back up at the front of the forest before thinking about looking over at the house that Vanilla and Cream lived, Eggman decided long before this though that now was the perfect time to leave. If Izuku was long dead, then it wasn't his problem at the moment since he already had someone who could take on Lord X based on the power level of the individual in his control.

Sonic however, had continued to search all around the forest. The blue blur making it his life's mission in order to make sure that Izuku was safe, just because they had an initial spat about what he should've done for Mobius, essentially dooming it to be destroyed, instead of giving up his own world. By the time he stopped checking the forest, he walked over to the house that had been the home for Vanilla and Cream. Sniffing the air, he took note that there was someone else there with the rabbit household before rushing through the front door only to come across a scene that was out of a comedy.

A black, scraggly haired man was sitting in a chair at the kitchen table. Sitting across from the table was Vanilla, the rabbit Mobian looking at the man with nothing more than a withering glare as she assessed his reasons for being there. Looking to her right, she would find Sonic staring at the two with nothing more than confusion on his face as Vanilla smiled at Sonic before speaking to him.

"If you're looking for Izuku he had gone out for a run in the forest. So he's probably back at his house, just take a right outside and you should see the makings of a roof about 15 -20 meters away from the house." Vanilla informed as Sonic looked at the black-haired man for a moment before leaving.

Rushing through the forest in the direction that Vanilla had informed him about, Sonic soon found the house she spoke of. He had to be impressed though; it looked like those old log cabins from the comics he'd read from the people in the city. It was perfectly made from the logs of the forest, not to mention how it appeared as though it could survive any kind of storm what with how there seemed to be no way for precipitation to get through the logs themselves. Hell, there was even a couple windows for the kitchen, bathroom, living room, and the bedrooms inside the house!

Knocking on the front door, Sonic waited for a few seconds as he was trembling with trepidation. It wasn't his fault that he didn't like to sit in one place for too long, but at the same time he needed to make sure that his friend/not friend was alright.

'I really need to apologize for the words I gave him on that day.' Sonic thought to himself with a frown.

As he was distracted, the door opened revealing Izuku looking at Sonic in confusion.

"Sonic? What are you doing here?" Izuku asked, as a head of blue hair popped up above his head.

"IZUKU!? THANK CHAOS THAT YOU'RE ALRIGHT!" Sonic called out, pulling the small rabbit into a hug.

"Um... not that I'm fine with this happening, why are you hugging me Sonic?" Izuku asked, tilting his head in confusion.

"Were you visited by Lord X today at all!?" Sonic asked, fear written in his expression.

"Yeah... he wasn't exactly happy to see Nejire in my possession, not that I call her my possession! But he was oddly happy that I was actually having a better life." Izuku said, as Sonic paused for a moment.

"...Eh?" Sonic questioned with a confused expression.

"Yeah, there is a lot to talk about. How about you come inside so I can give you a rundown of the whole event." Izuku said, sighing with an exasperated expression.

The two entered his house as Sonic gave Nejire a nod of approval as the young woman just stared at him curiously. The curiosity in her gaze soon disappeared as soon as a little girl with a horn on her head came running into the room as she found her spot behind Izuku's legs. Sonic stared at the scene before himself with nothing more than a small smile on his face as he happily looked between the two before kneeling down and sitting on his knees looking into the little girl's eyes, her ruby red gaze.

"Hey there little one! My name is Sonic! Sonic the Hedgehog! And between you and me, I'm the fastest thing around~" Sonic whispered, giving the little girl a thumbs up and a wink.

"M-My name is E-Eri... and I have a C-Curse that a-allows me to-to rewind s-someone out of e-exis... ecxisstance." Eri said, as Izuku softly patted Eri's head.

"Her quirk is that she can rewind any living and nonliving material out of existence. You did good Eri-chan, how about you eat some apple pie in the kitchen with Surge and Rouge?" Izuku asked, Eri as the little girl drooled a little and rushed away.

"Okay, so can you give me the rundown on what the hell happened between you and Lord X?" Sonic questioned, worry evident in his tone.

"Yeah, it went like this..." Izuku said beginning to retell his events of the conversation with Lord X.

Chapter Text

Lord X was many things, but an idiot was not one of them. He'd been alive ever since the Void had been created at the same time of the Universe. He thrived in the realm of the Void, not only that, but it was where he drew the entirety of his powers. The deity had been around since the creation of the entire Multiverse, and he was now reaching the last dregs of life within himself.

The creature had been alive for millions, possibly billions of years. Not only that, but he has been causing mayhem and destruction across multiple realities for far longer. The deity of the Void had known only mayhem and destruction and wanted to do something good for once. So he decided to ultimately take Midoriya Izuku's deal when he first met the rabbit.

After hearing that the boy had wanted nothing more than to live a life without having to be in fear of anything from his past. Lord X had wanted nothing more than to assist him in taking out the people who had caused him all that unwanted pain and misery. Sighing to himself, he stared at the boy who was in front of him with Nejire the girl who he had brought to this reality.

"So you are the one who stole her from me. She looks nice at your side, although I would've preferred to break her mind before turning her into one of my slaves. But that is beside the point, she is yours though." Lord X said, as Izuku glared at him.

"What makes you think that I will see Hado-san as nothing more than a person?" Izuku questioned with a glare.

"I have no problems with how you view her. She is a good-looking young woman, I only wish to see you happy young friend of mine." Lord X stated, staring into Izuku's emerald eyes.

"What's the real reason you're here Lord X? What are your plans!" Izuku growled.

"I have no plans this time, boy. You shouldn't take that tone with me, after all I might just destroy this reality next." Lord X said, before sighing in mock sadness.

"The reason I am here is to say goodbye finally." Lord X said, hiding his arms behind his back.

"Why? Not that I'm not happy that you are leaving, but there has to be a reason as to why you're saying goodbye to me specifically." Izuku questioned, a bit off guard.

"The reason I am saying goodbye to you, is because to be frank and blunt. I'm dying." Lord X stated, with a serious expression.

"Should I be happy or sad about that? I know that you're a person as much as the other, but I'm not sure what to do with that information." Izuku said, with a confused face.

"Happy or sad, two emotions that you struggle to use. But no. You will be happy for my incoming demise, after all... you will be the one I leave all my subordinates to listen to." Lord X said, with a sickening smile.

"Why do I feel as though I should be worried?" Izuku asked.

"Because of the fact that they don't view you as a successor of mine. I will be passing on all of the powers I possess within my body into you. Although, it will only happen when I succumb to my incoming death." Lord X said, flippantly with nonchalance.

Izuku stared at Lord X for a few moments. He stared at the slowly decaying features of the Sonic look-alike with nothing more than scrutiny. From the amount of time he'd known about this creature, it was the simple fact that he could be known to lie. But looking into the creature's eyes all he could see was sadness for his supposed demise.

It was as though he knew his time was coming and wanted to hand off his powers to someone who would use them for... good. Izuku stared at Lord X for a few moments more, the silence wavering between him and Nejire as the girl stared at the creature who destroyed her world.

She couldn't react when Izuku had stepped in front of her when Lord X stared in her direction with nothing more than that sick smile. But as soon as Izuku glared Lord X down, the Sonic look-alike had only shrugged his shoulders and floated into the air and acted as though he were laying on a Hamock.

"Why me? Why would you want to give me all of your powers?" Izuku asked, cautiously.

"Because you are the only one who would use my powers over the Void for good. For millennia I have used my Void powers for nothing more than wanton destruction of realities. I've tortured millions, possibly trillions of innocents in my time as a God. And I just would like to have my powers used for something to create, not destroy." Lord X said, as he turned his back to Izuku.

Staring at Lord X with nothing more than confusion, Izuku held out a hand towards what could only be seen as the Mobian Devil. He glared openly into Lord X's eyes as they gave off a mirthful look to them before he extended his very own hand onto Izuku's gloved one. Their eyes stared into the other for a good long while as Izuku stared at the X crossed shaped eyes.

They held their gaze for a moment before Lord X spoke in what appeared to be a Latin language under his breath. Izuku wasn't sure what he stated, but Lord X knew what he was doing as he smiled mirthfully at the boy who was willing to take his power. Lord X knew that Death came for any and all beings, it didn't matter if you changed bodies.

Once you moved to another body that would start to decay faster the more you used the ability. And he'd used the body change ability, through possession, hundreds if not millions of times throughout his years. Now he just wanted to rest and die, his time as the God of the Void was over and it was time for him to make Izuku his successor upon his death.

"A me ad te, potestas mea in anima tua pertinet. Quidquid accidit, ad bonum erit usus. Non vacillabis, non in adversitate. Nihil accipitur et vindicatur. Vita et omnia. (From me to you, my power belongs in your soul. No matter what happens, it shall be used for good. You shall not falter, not in the face of adversity. The Void accepts and claims all. Lifespan and all)" Lord X whispered under his breath.

Once those words were uttered out of Lord X's mouth, his body trembled a little bit. Izuku noted this tremble before Lord X composed himself before he fell to his knees. Izuku instinctively reached an arm out to grab Lord X's arm and helped the deity to his feet. Lord X looking at the boy with peculiarity before that sick smile came back onto his face once again.

"You really are my chosen successor. My power will be soon yours, once I reach the end of my lifespan." Lord X said, before his body faded from the area.

"Hehehahahahahahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Arriving back at his home base, Lord X looked out towards his subordinates. They all milled about the Void within Mobius with happy smiles on their faces. Lord X smiled down at all those who he had created in the past, many doubles of Sonic who had taken on their own forms. He smiled at all his children, knowing full well that by the time he died all of them will die.

Well, all except for one.

Manic the Hedgehog was the brother of Sonic the Hedgehog. It was a shame that he took that green hedgehog's brother's body, but it was done in order to stop the Highest from resetting the Universe. It was just a shame that they lost their original reality, and this body was slowly decaying faster than the last one he'd used in order to sway Manic to his side.

Now though, it was time to end everything he'd created. He was a destroyer, not a creator... that boy would become his successor and create life where he failed. Lord X had made life in his own image, not too dissimilar to those of Izuku's religions where a man who called himself God created man in his own image. Lord X wasn't one to have a religion based on his existence.

Only amateurs will make a religion of themselves in order to have a following.

Lord X had no need for followers; he only created those who held the same desires as himself.

He had grown bored with destruction, and he wasn't young enough to create a world full of fun and happiness. Lord X knew for a fact that he couldn't create the world he had originally thought of when he gained his powers over the Void. But with that boy, he knew for a fact that he'd use those powers for good and make a world full of happiness.

Smiling to himself as he stared out into the expanse of Darkness, he heard a commotion coming from the furthest depths. Squinting his X-shaped eyes, he found what was causing such a disturbance in the Void. And he couldn't help the laugh that fell out his mouth as he watched a familiar face, although covered head to toe in machinery.

"So it appears as though the boy has become a man. Only this time, he forced himself to be roboticized. I am sickened with your choices, Manic." Lord X chuckled.

"You. Will. Die. For. Taking. Everything. From. Me!" The newly Roboticized Manic screeched.

"He's not alone, Lord X. I have come to make sure that you never come back to Mobius, I hope that you have stated your prayers. Seeing as you will not survive the night!" Eggman called out, pulling a laser-pistol out from his hovercraft.

"Get a load of this!" Eggman called out, with a maniacal grin on his face.

The deity of the Void dodged the laser attack with striking efficiency. Only to be punched in the face by the Roboticized Manic, as he pummeled the God into the Void dirt. The creature only doing nothing more than staring into Manic's gaze as he spoke to the now robot.

"It's not my fault that your sister, Sonia was killed. You did that with your own volition." Lord X said, with a sick grin.

"Trying. To. Get. Into. My. Head. Won't. Work. I. Am. A. Robot." Manic robotically called out, before pulling Lord X to himself.

Lord X couldn't do anything as Manic released a powerful right hook into the creature's stomach causing him to cough up black blood. Lord X stumbled backwards before Manic sent a metallic foot into the deity's face, knocking him back a few hundred meters. The deity standing back to his full height as he glared at Manic with a glee hidden under his gaze.

Once Lord X was standing upright once more, he could feel the small amounts of his power ebbing away from his body. Manic's robotic form wasn't getting any more powerful, which meant that this fight was exasperating his incoming death further. Smirking to himself, he'd at least have one last good fight between himself and the mad doctor before dying.

He powered himself up, a blackish red aura taking place around his form. He launched himself towards Manic as the green robotic Hedgehog rushed him once again. Thrusters blasting out from behind his back as he spun through the air throwing metallic quills his direction. Lord X combated those by throwing his very own quills in the direction of the metallic ones.

Both attacks blocked the other out before Lord X landed on the ground. Eggman smirked at Lord X before pointing his laser-pistol at the downed Hedgehog Void God. Smirking evilly, he blasted the downed creature as he writhed in agony the smile on Lord X's face still showing as his form was slowly disintegrated.

"My power is now leaving my form. Be sure to not piss off that green rabbit friend of yours, Doctor." Lord X said, before his spirit and body were destroyed.

Eggman and Manic looked at the surrounding area, and decided now was a good time to leave. Rushing through the entrance they had created, they never noticed the group of Heroines standing in the Void. But five of them all had managed to escape from the destruction of the Void landing in Mobius as a whole.

A voice rang in their heads as they looked about the area as though they were searching for something... or rather someone.

"The boy... he is a Rabbit Mobian. Go to him, you belong to him now." Lord X's final words rang in their ears.

As soon as the women looked at one another, they felt where the words were telling them to go. And looking straight towards a nearby city, they all gained a smile on their faces before taking off in that direction. Completely unaware of the fact that someone was watching them from not too far away from their location, a black hedgehog staring at the group of women with strange appearances with nothing more than confusion. Pulling up a communicator to his ear he called for some assistance in his quadrant, seeing as how Eggman had seemingly ended the life of Lord X he wanted to make sure that these people weren't a threat to Central City.

"This is Shadow from Team Dark. I have a feeling that we might have a new threat amongst those within Central City. I'm heading out to investigate, I will be requesting backup from the rest of Team Dark." Shadow said into his comm before heading towards Central City.

"Shadow. This. Is. Omega. I. Am. On. My. Way." Omega's robotic voice came through his com.

Shadow smirked to himself, knowing full well he had a competent ally to assist him. Although, he wondered why Rouge was quiet all of a sudden... thinking nothing of it he headed off towards Central City on his motorcycle. It roared to lie as he moved through all the roadways' heading out of Central City and made his way towards the city itself, he could only hope that these people weren't a threat to all of Mobius.

Otherwise, he would need to hold them off until someone like Sonic arrived on the scene. And he hated having to hold out until Sonic arrived.

Chapter Text

Izuku was sitting in the middle of the forest outside of Central City meditating. He had been having a sort of dark feeling that was moving through his spine. It wasn't evil per say, but it had the power to corrupt anyone who it had touched. And the young rabbit couldn't help but feel as though this dark feeling was from Lord X, as though he had been... chosen.

The final words of Lord X came to his mind once again, how he had chosen Izuku as his successor. It was as soon as those final words replayed inside of his mind that Izuku realized what he was feeling. It wasn't the fact that Lord X was gifting him his powers, no... it was Lord X's presence within the world of Mobius suddenly... disappearing.

The fact that he could sense Lord X's presence on Mobis concerned Izuku. Meaning that the creature of the Void could enter his mind once more, in a bid to take over his mind. But... nothing ever came from that, only a wellspring of power that seemingly began to encompass him. Izuku felt the power coursing through his veins, it was Dark... Endless... Sad.

As soon as Izuku felt the sadness of Lord X's power, he felt himself shedding a tear for the Void God as his presence on Mobius fully dissipated. It was also here that Izuku felt his own presence, the presence within Mobius seemingly... vanish. Not to mention the fact that Izuku had never felt his own presence before, and to feel it be so... dark, haunted him.

Izuku knew that he had a portion of his heart and mind filled with darkness. He'd never showed it off before because that wasn't how a Hero should act. If there was anything that Izuku knew about being a Hero, it was that a Hero shouldn't act with such darkness in their hearts. Should he do so, then he will not be a Hero and would actually be a villain.

Taking a breath, Izuku felt the power of the Void coalesce around his body. Pulling an arm up to look at the physical manifestation of his new powers. He already knew that he had power over Lightning itself, being capable of using it's power to increase his own feats of Strength, Speed, Agility, Durability and Intelligence.

He already knew that his base stats were above normal. He would say that if he were to compare himself to Tails and Robotnik, Izuku believed that he would be at least a few level's of intelligence below them. Tails and Robotnik had IQ levels that reached over the hundreds alone, and Izuku couldn't remember the last time he had an IQ test.

But if he compared himself to Tails and Eggman, with their known IQ levels of 300 per person, although Eggman has more experience. Izuku would easily state that he would be slightly dumber than Rotor Walrus, the one who was the next smartest after Tails. But with all this information entering his mind, he felt as though he could be nearly as smart as Tails and Eggman.

As he stood out in the forest, he felt the power coalesce around himself once more. Taking a deep breath, he let the power surround himself. The power was warm, powerful and most importantly addicting. Izuku had gone without power for 90% of his life, and when coming here after his first experience with Lord X he gained the power over lightning.

Now though, after his second experience with Lord X... he wasn't just gaining new powers... he gained powers that was not his own. Izuku felt the multitude of powers that were vast and many, there was so much different uses for these powers his brain couldn't catch up. He was about to try out one of his new abilities when Nejire walked around the corner.

"Izuku? What's that energy surrounding you?" Nejire asked, as Izuku blinked at her.

"What energy?" Izuku questioned.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Over on the other side of the planet, Dr. Eggman could be seen working hard on his newest project. Manic the Hedgehog having been docile the entire time, looked out the window of the Eggfleet staring off into the great expanse. His red eyes glaring out into the world that was now completely rid of the parasite that was Lord X.

But for some reason, he could sense the energy of the person who had transformed him into that creature of the void. It meant that either Lord X had possessed someone else, or he willingly gave his power over the void to someone else. But that would mean that they could fall down the same path as Eggman and Lord X again, only this time far worse.

There would be nothing to stop whoever hold's Lord X's powers. Whoever holds onto the power of Lord X should be highly careful with how they utilize the powers itself. Considering how Lord X had gone from a God of the Void who had been passive, to being a domineering force of destruction across the Multiverse.

"That's it! I need to make sure that this current project cannot be countered by those of Mobius, it's genius!" Eggman called out, as Manic looked over.

"What. Is. The. Reason. For. Your. Loud. Voice?" Manic questioned.

"Oh, shut it! You're my slave now, if you don't remember. Our deal was that if I were to transform you into a robot through roboticization I would assist you in killing Lord X. I don't need to hear you talking smack." Eggman growled.

"What. Is. Your. New. Plan?" Manic questioned, folding his robotic arms over his chest.

"It's going to be a different version of the Metal Virus, considering how it nearly took over Mobius the first time. I'm making sure that nobody can counter it, although I can't say anything about the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald." Eggman said, with a shrug of his shoulders.

"How. Contagious. Will. This... Metal. Virus. Be?" Manic questioned.

"It'll be so contagious that nobody will be capable of staying safe from it. And this time... I will not make it spread through touch that was how it was countered the first time." Eggman said, with a smile.

"They called my creations through the previous Metal Virus, Zombots. And I intend to use the very definition of Zombie, from Midoriya's Universe." Eggman said, eyes glowing from behind his glasses.

"You. Are. Going. To. Create. An. Undead. Virus?" Manic questioned, his eyes narrowing in confusion.

"Of course, if at first you don't succeed... try, try again." Eggman said, chuckling.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

Back with Izuku, he had finished informing Nejire about the powers that Lord X had gifted him upon his... death. He had arrived at the house to find Sonic sitting on his couch and relayed all the information that he could remember. Sonic looking at Izuku with nothing more than concern across his features, and the hedgehog could only sigh.

"I don't know what Egghead is planning but just be prepared for this next attack. Egghead's not known to use the same strategy twice... but I wouldn't put it past him in order to make the attempt." Sonic said, with a concerned expression.

"As much as I would love to state that you're wrong, I can't disagree with your thought process hedgehog." Rouge said, with a smile.

"Of course I'm right! I'm never wrong!" Sonic said, rubbing his nose.

"Aside from how you willingly keep letting him go. I'm willing to give people second or possibly third chances, but each time you've given him a chance to change he hasn't." Izuku said, giving Sonic a concerned expression.

"What are you guys doing? Don't you see the kind of good he could do if he only decided to work with us?" Sonic asked, incredulously.

"Sonic, in the time that I've been here... I've learnt that not many people change. And sometimes in order to save a life you need to let go of the life in another." Izuku said, looking at Sonic with nothing more than sadness.

"But that isn't what a Hero should be! A Hero should strive to save as many people as they can, not take the lives of others!" Sonic said, glaring at Izuku.

"And sometimes the Hero needs to know when the only way to save someone is by ending their life before they end the lives of so many more!" Izuku said, his eyes narrowing.

"So what, you're implying that with each and every evil person that we kill them?" Sonic asked, angrily.

"No, but when it comes to Eggman... someone who we know is evil to the core, he needs to be put down for the greater good of Mobius." Izuku said, placing his palms on Sonic's shoulders.

"How would you even know what Egghead is really like under all the evil plans and everything? We've literally saved Mobius by defeating him each and every time!" Sonic said, as Izuku took a deep breath.

"What happens when Eggman finally defeats you, Sonic the Hedgehog?" Izuku questioned poking a finger at Sonic's chest.

"That'll never happen, I'm so fast that he can't even kill me!" Sonic boasted.

"Oh really? Then how has he been able to create monstrosities that were nearly on par with your full power?" Izuku questioned, as Sonic blinked at him.

"What are you talking about?" Sonic questioned.

"Metal Sonic? He was created in order to be your perfect rival, someone who can rival the speeds that you can reach through technology alone. Eggman created him to be your perfect counter, sure you can defeat Metal Sonic... but how many times has Eggman had you dead to rights before your friends came in to save you?" Izuku questioned staring into Sonic's eyes.

"What happens when you fight Eggman on your own, once again, and this time he manages to defeat you? And this time, no one is coming to save you... no back up is coming to help?" Izuku questioned tapping his foot on the ground.

"That's impossible, I'll always have some kind of backup! Tails'll know when I'm in trouble." Sonic waved off.

"Just some advice Sonic, don't go into battle recklessly. Because it might just be when you enter another fight, that fight may just be your last." Izuku said, as Sonic left the house.

With those words deeply ingrained into Sonic's mind, Izuku watched the blue blur rush off into the distance towards where he was sure was Tails' home. Sighing to himself, Izuku glanced about the place before finding Nejire, Surge and Rouge staring at him. Eri had fallen asleep during his debate with Sonic earlier as Rouge held her in the bat's arms.

Nejire stared at him, a slight blush appearing on her face as Izuku blushed crimson in embarrassment. Surge walking over and pulling Izuku into a hug as the green rabbit couldn't hold back the tears he felt from having that conversation. Izuku wasn't one to cry much anymore, sure if he got really emotional it would happen, but it didn't happen much anymore.

Now though, after Sonic left the house Izuku fell to his knees sobbing to himself. Even though he didn't wish to think about all the what ifs or the alternate ways a battle could end, he couldn't help it. It was the part of himself that worried about everyone, and he severely cared for Sonic to the point he thought the hedgehog was like a cousin.

But to see him act in such a way that was not like him, it greatly concerned Izuku. The hedgehog was at this point speedrunning towards his own death if he didn't stop to think before he acted. The young rabbit wanted nothing more than for Sonic to be careful, but the blue blur just never was.

Izuku began to openly sob in front of the girls as he felt as though a terrible event was soon to happen. He didn't know whether or not it was coming from Eggman, but he did know one thing for certain. Whatever it was, it was causing Izuku to see multiple different endings to a potential life that could be saved at this moment.

And he didn't even know if he wanted to see any more alternate endings to those potential alternate futures.

Back inside the hidden base of Dr. Ivo Robotnik, he could be seen wearing a scientists lab coat as he stared inside of a completely indestructible glass. Inside of the glass would be a flicky that had been being tested on by the vile doctor. His gaze watching as the metallic sludge that he'd created this time around dripped onto the flicky.

His eyes would watch as the flicky would flutter a little bit, trying to get the weird metallic sludge off it's wing. But it would fail miserably, and that wasn't the only thing that had happened to the small creature. Its body was slowly mutating, becoming grotesque and very... corpse-like in appearance what with it's wing falling off but coming back together due to the metallic sludge.

Like it's predecessor in the Metal Virus, this version of it allowed the virus itself to repair any and all wounds. Although, from Robotnik's point of view he noticed something very odd about the Flicky in front of himself. His entire life he could sense the lives of these paltry creatures, something that he'd learned how to utilize during his fights against Sonic.

But for some reason though, he couldn't feel the presence of this Flicky. Not to mention how it's visage slowly became more and more... decayed, as though it were going through Rigo Mortis. Pulling up a small audio recorder Eggman spoke into it.

"Test Number 1 gives the result of the experiment transforming into a creature unknown to me. Not only that, but it's mere presence is completely wiped from existence, as though it's dead." Ivo stated, before ending the recording.

Ivo would look at this creation as though it were the single most powerful being he'd created in the universe. For the next few hours, he would undergo multiple experiments with multiple Flickies, and one thing became apparent for the vile doctor. Unlike his last batch of the Metal Virus, this one... it required it's host to bite their prey.

And looking at the amount of blood that bathed the area where the infected Flicky was located. It was something that not even Sonic himself, could defeat. Seeing as the only way to destroy the Flicky seeing as it's ran out of use, was destroying the head and brain. Smiling to himself, he attempted to make a vaccine for the event that he should ever be bitten.

That isn't to say that he hasn't thought through each and every outcome for this virus escaping from his very cautious grip. He made sure that the Metallic Sludge wouldn't be capable of being controlled by those who could control robots. That being himself included in that whole thing, but that was the price to pay for making his Zombot army completely incapable of being taken from himself.

Sighing to himself in content, he left the room whilst Metal Sonic continued to conduct his experiments. This time with a small pig mobian, as they stared at the gray-silver metallic sludge hanging over themselves. Metal Sonic would watch with morbid curiosity as the pig mobian let out a screech of pain and misery before suddenly falling to the ground... dead.

Metal Sonic would tilt his head in confusion, before the pig would wake up again. Only this time, it's body was entirely intact... not to mention how it seemed to be frothing at the mouth. Placing another mobian into the chamber and closing the door just as quickly, Metal would watch. The pig slowly walking towards the other mobian who stared on in horror.

And without warning, the pig attacked. It tore the mobian limb from limb, making sure that none of them remained aside from the blood that splattered against the glass. Metal Sonic's red eyes glared through the glass watching as the Zombot would become inactive now. Tilting it's head again, Metal Sonic would add a few other things into the room before taking them away after whoever he placed inside got bit.

The Squirrel Mobian who he managed to capture was placed into another cage. This one had been spying on the base for a while, not able to get into the base due to Ivo Robotnik's superior intellect in setting up booby traps around the place. The mobian constantly stared at their limb in horror, watching the gray-silver sludge slowly move up through their veins.

About a couple hours after the bite had been given, the subject was already in the final stage before it would 'die'. And within mere moments, it would be back up and glaring at Metal Sonic as though he caused the destruction of the entirety of Mobius. Metal Sonic would write down the useful information before heading out of the room, he had to inform Ivo about this development.

As soon as Metal Sonic left the room, Manic would stare at the glass with confusion. The robotic undead inside of it was completely inactive at the moment. And feeling a bit of self-awareness, felt as though he should free it from the confines it was being kept within. Walking over, he opened the door to the cage before directing the subject into the forest outside the base.

Manic would return inside the base before closing the shutters. He couldn't allow Eggman to fall right now, after all his plan was about to come to fruition. All it would take was a small amount of time for the Zombot to amass an army, if it didn't kill whoever it bit.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

The Zombot would make it's way through the forest. It killed anything in it's path, even those who were naturally predators. By the time it came across a small camp, that being filled with sleeping Mobians, it stalked towards the nearest tent. The Mobian inside would wake up due to the sounds of bushes being moved and twigs being crushed.

The mobian would leave the safety of their tent, looking around the camp with confusion on their eyes. Turning around in confusion, they felt a strange cold sensation shiver down their spine causing them to turn around. There, standing in the middle of a small clearing off in the distance was the thing that woke them up.

Curious, the mobian would make their way towards the mobian. They would watch as the individual would twitch and shiver madly, as though they were under the effects of a drug. But as soon as the mobian was within a few feet of the individual... it struck. It turned around showing off a bloody front and bloody teeth and without much time to react, it leapt at them.

It placed a hand over their mouth, covering their scream of terror and muffling their voice before biting down on their arm. The mobian would attempt to break free from it's grasp, smacking it's arm and head trying to deal some kind of damage. But no matter what they did nothing worked, that was until... they grabbed a rock, with a pointed edge, and stabbed it into the individual's head.

The individual would watch the body for a few moments, just waiting for it to put itself back together like it had back during the last Metal Virus attack. But nothing happened, breathing a sigh of relief they forgot about the bite on their arm... before looking at it. They stared down at the bite mark before covering it up with their sleeve.

As they walked back towards the camp, their eyes glowed an ominous red color before entering their tent from before. Unaware of the terror they were about to bring to everyone else in the camp, and the world.

Chapter Text

Izuku found himself in a situation that was beyond anything that he'd ever encountered before. This was a situation that required a very high level of concentration as well as complete focus for the action he was about to take. All around himself the entire forest was in flames, parts of the trees were turning into metal the animals were running towards the city seeing as that was the last place they could go for shelter. And as Izuku turned around he came face to face with the very people that had been captured by Lord X when the monster had come back to Mobius, probably to cause chaos to Izuku before kicking the bucket.

Now Izuku wasn't one for thinking that he couldn't deny the appearances of others, his mother taught him to give people second chances. But it was ironic that he couldn't give his own mother that very same second chance, due to how she raised him. But now as he stood before the very personification that he couldn't become a Hero in his world, Izuku couldn't help but feel oddly... sad when staring at the Heroines before himself. They prostrated themselves before him, as though he were some kind of God amongst them that required them to give themselves over to his rule.

Looking down at the women before himself, Izuku would take a deep breath through his nose. Looking amongst the people that stood before him right now, he could see Pro Heroines... Mirko, Ryukyu, Uwabami, Mandalay and Ryuko Tsuchikawa otherwise known as Pixiebob. Knowing that two of the three Pussycats were in this area, Izuku glanced around for the third and fourth Pussycats who could be nearby. Looking into the trees he found that the last couple were sitting on a tree branch, although they were missing the fourth Pussycat in general, meaning that he was lost before coming here.

"Is there a reason why you all are prostrating yourselves before me?" Izuku asked, his bunny ears bouncing lightly.

"Our master has... as he said... died. He sent us over to you to keep you safe from any and all harm." Ryukyu said, glancing up at him.

"Okay, but is there a reason why you are prostrating yourselves before me though." Izuku questioned looking at the Dragoon Heroine.

"We are giving our bodies and hearts over to you, young man." Ryukyu said, as Mirko glanced up at him.

"You're also a rabbit, a Jack-Rabbit from what I can tell." Mirko said, as Izuku tilted his head.

"Is that a bad thing?" Izuku asked, confusedly at Mirko.

"The thing is, we've seen all sorts of rabbits on our way towards this forest. But we haven't seen any Jack-Rabbits, and you're the first one that we've laid our eyes on." Mirko explained as Izuku just blinked.

"Okay, and I should care about this why?" Izuku questioned as Mirko glanced over at the other animal themed Heroines.

"It's because Jack-Rabbits are extremely well known for their ability to... fuck for long sessions." Mandalay supplied from the back.

"Why am I even asking about this?" Izuku muttered to himself, all before looking at all the women.

"Go to Vanilla's house, she'll explain what we should do with you later. I've got to find Sonic and the others, Rouge, Surge, Nejire!" Izuku said, before calling out the girls in his home.

All three exited the house with curious expressions on their faces, Eri was with them as she looked at them all. Izuku noticed her gaze on him as he knelt down before giving the small girl a hug that allowed her to melt in his arms, getting all the warmth she needed in that moment. As soon as she re-entered the house, Izuku glanced at each of the woman who lived within his home and spoke to them in a tone that held the experience of a leader.

"Rouge, I need you to find out where Sonic is. Surge, I need you to figure out what the hell is going on with the forest. Nejire, I need you to take Eri-chan and bring her to Freedom Fighter HQ." Izuku stated, in a commanding tone.

"What should we do?" Mirko questioned, looking to Izuku in trepidation.

"Like I said, head over to Vanilla's house. She'll have you do some things in order to prepare for whatever is hitting the forest outside of Central City." Izuku said, before making to leave the area.

"Our job is to protect you!" Mandalay called out.

"Well, your new job under my direct orders is to keep the Rabbit Family safe!" Izuku said, before pausing noticing the confused expressions on their faces. "Vanilla the Rabbit, Cream the Rabbit, Uraraka Ochako and her child... and Eri-chan as well." Izuku clarified as the women gave him a stiff nod and rushed over.

"Who will keep Eri-chan safe inside our house?" Surge questioned, worried.

"I can do that! I've got a Quirk that allows me to turn the ground into dirt monsters, whatever has been happening to the forest will have to work hard to get through my quirk." Pixie Bob said, with a wink.

[You all might be wondering what has happened to get to this point, where Izuku needs to search for whoever or whatever is causing the forest to turn into metal and catch fire. We will have to go back to a few hours ago, to find out what happened.]

{3 Hours Ago}

Deep in the outer layer of the forest just outside of Central City, a lone figure was seen stumbling through the forest. On their shoulder was a large bite wound, as though something had bit down onto it before tearing a chunk from the individual's shoulder. Blood and a strange metallic substance flooded from the wound, the individual seemingly stumbling about as though there was nothing going on within their brain. They continued to walk through the forest until they reached the outer limits of Central City, where a few paramedics were able to see the individual stumble into the clearing.

Rushing over to see what was going on, they helped the individual onto a gurney and brought them into an ambulance. There they brought the individual into a hospital in order to help heal the wounds that the individual had accrued. But within about 14 minutes of their arrival the individual suddenly stopped breathing, their body becoming a strange matt gray hue before the doctors and nurses rushed in to assist. They tried to resuscitate the individual only to have the monitor flatline constantly, and with confusion on their expressions they watched the individual get back up... without a heartbeat.

What happened over the course of the next few minutes was constant screaming, people dying and coming back the same as the individual. Nobody knew what was happening, but the patients who were able to move around inside the hospital took their chances and rushed out into the streets of Central City. Unaware of the fact that some of them were bitten and about to spread the disease that they had contracted to others from sheer coincidence alone.

About an hour after the first infection had begun, hundreds of people within Central City had become blood thirsty gray metallic monsters. People died from running across the street, people were ambushed in alleyways, and most importantly the police and government were incapable of stopping this mass destruction. Buildings exploded and fell from each and every new addition to the horde that was only increasing in number over the amount of time that had passed by. Over the city in his hovercraft, Dr. Eggman could be seen with a sadistic grin on his face as he stared down at what could only be an accidental introduction to the end of the world.

"Ho! Ho! Ho! I can't believe that I caused destruction of this scale! And this was all just an accident!" Eggman laughed.

"Metal. Sonic. Has. Gotten. Information. About. Sonic's. Whereabouts." Manic said, floating in the air next to Eggman.

"Oh! Goodie! Where is that blasted rodent?" Eggman questioned.

"Currently. Moving. Through. Scrap-brain. Zone. Will. Be. Here. Within. 5. Minutes." Manic said, as Eggman chuckled.

"Five minutes, that is enough time for the entirety of Central City to be completely consumed! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!" Eggman laughed, smacking his hovercraft.

After the five minutes passed by, jumping onto a nearby building Sonic was shown to have a face that bordered on conflicted. As he stared at the doctor, the vile man could already see the confliction on his face as he stared at the countless people being killed and transformed into monstrous beings the longer he stayed near the doctor. He was fighting his Heroic Instincts in order to fight Eggman thinking that the man had the ability to control them at the moment. And he went with his gut in staying near Eggman in order to stop whatever mess the vile plan the man had come up with this time.

"The hell is all this Eggman!? Why are you getting rid of all the people that you could rule over!?" Sonic questioned, angrily.

"Oh? Is the great Sonic the Hedgehog thinking that I could finally win against him?" Eggman questioned, a hint of a jovial attitude hidden in his tone.

"Oh please, you can't defeat me! I'm too fast for you to even defeat! But I want to know why you are getting rid of most of your... unwilling subordinates." Sonic said, smugly before questioning.

"This wasn't even my fault, sure I re-created the Metal Virus, but I made sure that it was far more dangerous." Eggman bragged, laughing the entire time.

"Who's the new robot? Did you replace Metal Sonic?" Sonic questioned, tapping his foot on the roof.

In the reflection of Eggman's glasses he could see hundreds of Zombots rushing up the stairs inside the building Sonic stood on. And a completely horrifying thought entered his mind.

'Since Sonic appears to be alone here... if I leave him here to die. He'd be too focused on keeping the people here alive, when they're already dead. Hehehohohoho! I'm a genius!' Eggman thought to himself.

"As much as I would love to stay here and fight you Hedgehog, I have a million better things to do. Such as leaving the area immediately." Eggman said, turning to leave.

"Why won't you stay!?" Sonic called out, moving towards the edge of the building.

"Because Sonic... I'm not your enemy at the moment." Eggman said, with an evil smile.

That was when the door behind Sonic slammed open revealing hundreds of saliva filled mouths with sharp teeth glaring at Sonic. The blue hedgehog stared at each Zombot with confusion and trepidation, having come into contact with a few of them earlier he hadn't gained the virus from touch. That was something he knew was different from the Metal Virus last time, even Eggman stated that he changed how the Metal Virus contacted others. So that left him with the only question on his mind, what the hell did Eggman change about the Metal Virus to make it far more dangerous than the previous one?

His question was answered when one of the Zombots tried to bite him when he was distracted with their appearances. They barely managed to bite down on his glove, tearing the tip of it where his finger held a small claw. Sonic looked down at his hand noticing that his hand was alright but saw that they were actively trying to bite down on him and decided that now was the perfect time to leave. Leaping from the building, Sonic fell down towards the ground with his feet slamming onto the glass below his body before running down the building itself.

As he had leapt from the building, the hundreds of Zombots leapt after him each one splattering on the ground below him. The closer Sonic got to the ground, each one got back up as though nothing had happened. They saw him leaping into the thick of them and reached out their arms towards the blue hedgehog, and there was no way for him to escape from their grasps this time as time seemingly stopped as he floated high above them. Each one reaching out to Sonic, blood covering their clawed gloves and mouths as Sonic stared into Death's eyes as each one of them held a red eyed glare, just like the previous Metal Virus Attack.

Izuku found himself running through the streets of Central City, he had been searching for Sonic. He deeply regretted telling Sonic about what could possibly happen should Eggman beat him somehow, but at the same time it was him telling Sonic to be careful. And now Izuku felt as though he had been very wrong in that aspect of telling the blue blur about keeping himself safe and sound from any and all kinds of attacks from the mad doctor.

He'd come across multiple life forms through the streets, and due to his powers over the Void Dimension he could defeat them all with ease. It was a strange thing to see, Izuku could punch and kick each of the monsters around himself and nothing would get on him, not the metallic goo that was on these creatures. Izuku had a feeling that Eggman had created the Metal Virus again, only this time making enough of the antidote for himself and those who worked for him. But that didn't tell Izuku how these things spread throughout the entire city at such a rapid pace.

So he conjured up a power that Lord X had once used against Sonic and the others multiple times in the past. He conjured up a special projection of himself, one who would look, feel and sound exactly like his original self. Letting them run around the place with no power of their own, Izuku watched as a nearby feral monster leapt out of an alleyway as he floated high above the city. It bit down on the conjured projection of Izuku the Rabbit's shoulder causing him to scream out in agony before seemingly dropping to the ground in a dead daze, his glassy eyes staring up at his projector.

Izuku would watch as his projected self would suddenly gain consciousness once again, only this time his entire body was encased in a strange lime-green metal. His eyes were a crimson red as he glanced about the place, and Izuku could hear what was going through his projected selves mind.

'Eat, eat! Must eat!' His projection thought before rushing away.

Izuku called off the projection as he figured out how the infection is spread that instant. Moving over to a place where he could protect himself from being bitten, he found a lot of leather and blade proof clothing. Covering himself in those clothing, he left the store with nothing more than a serious expression on his face. Looking towards the nearest explosion happening in the distance of the city, he rushed off hoping to come across Eggman.

As he moved across the city, he would notice a blue blur rushing through the Zombots. And Izuku could easily tell that something was off about the blue blur as he stopped near anyone who was not infected and stayed near them for a moment before moving on. Landing near Sonic, Izuku would take in the blue blur's expression as well as worry on his face... Izuku glanced all over Sonic's frame as the fear-riddled hedgehog was glancing in all directions.

"Sonic, is something wrong?" Izuku asked, as Sonic looked up at him.

"I found Eggman earlier, I went to try and fight him but... he just left." Sonic said, clenching his fists.

"Okay, but are you okay? I've noticed how the people and Mobians have been getting infected." Izuku said, as Sonic looked up at him.

"Really?! That's great, all we need to do is find Tails! He'll have something to cook up for an antidote!" Sonic said, nodding along as though he were hoping it were true.

"Lead the way Sonic!" Izuku said, as the two rushed down the street in search of Tails' home.

But as they were running through the streets, Izuku noticed something definitively wrong with Sonic. Even though the hedgehog didn't seem to be slowing down at all, his speed could make him turn back time after all, Izuku still noticed how the hedgehog was slowing down ever so slightly. Using his new powers over the Void, Izuku would see if he could use it to see Sonic's health and mental state... and as soon as he saw Sonic's mental state, he could see that it was lowering over time. Not only that, but his health could be seen as lowering ever so slightly over time... Sonic didn't have long before he would die.

"Sonic, are you really, okay?" Izuku asked... concerned.

"Of course I am! I just got out of a fight with those things, I'm very hyperaware of what's going on in the city. I can hear the people be torn to shreds in the alleyways, roofs, as well as being exploded in buildings. It's not pretty." Sonic said, with a grim expression.

"At least you didn't get bitten by one of those things, Sonic." Izuku said, with a smile.

As they continued down the street, Sonic smiled at Izuku for a moment hopefully alleviating the boy's concern. But as he slowed down a bit to be behind the rabbit, he glanced down at his left arm, where a small portion of it had a large chunk bitten out of it. And his arm was slowly turning into the same metal as it had been when the first Metal Virus broke out within Central City and Mobius. He gulped to himself as Izuku's words from the other day rang in his head.

'What happens when Eggman finally defeats you, Sonic the Hedgehog?' Izuku questioned poking a finger at Sonic's chest.

'That'll never happen, I'm so fast that he can't even kill me!' Sonic boasted.

'Oh really? Then how has he been able to create monstrosities that were nearly on par with your full power?' Izuku questioned, as Sonic blinked at him.

'What are you talking about?' Sonic questioned.

'What happens when you fight Eggman on your own, once again, and this time he manages to defeat you? And this time, no one is coming to save you... no back up is coming to help?' Izuku questioned tapping his foot on the ground.

Sonic really hoped that whatever had gotten into his bite wound, that it was something that could be cured. Because he really didn't want Tails to see him like those monsters on the street.

That was when they saw a giant Fox-headed house. And it was still intact but surrounded by the infected Zombots who were slamming their fists on the house which placed down it's shutters.

Chapter Text

Sonic and Izuku soon arrived at Tails' home, the two were looking around the area as they had found Zombots moving about his lawn. They were slamming their fists and metallic heads against the building in a bid to get to the screaming fox inside the house. Rushing over to the house, the two kicked and beat down any Zombot in the area as they leapt through the back window that had been broken through. As soon as they entered the main room, they found Tails as he was on the ground trying his best to push off the Zombot as it bit down each and every time around his face.

Sonic leapt at the Zombot first, kicking it in the stomach launching it away from his friend. Izuku rushed over to Tails pulling him up from the ground and away from Sonic and the Zombot duking it out before Sonic slammed it into the ground, crushing it's skull. As Sonic stood upright once more, he stumbled backwards the adrenaline getting him slightly lightheaded before staring down at the Zombot.

As Izuku and Tails stared over at Sonic, the blue hedgehog panted slightly heavier than usual. They stared at him with nothing more than concern as he stared at the Zombot slowly getting back up from the ground after having it's skull crushed under his foot. As it stood upright, a part of it's jaw became unhinged as it roared at the trio before Sonic tackled it to the ground before glaring at Izuku and Tails with nothing more than a resigned expression on his face.

"Tails! Izuku! Get out of here, I'll handle this guy!" Sonic called out, as Izuku grabbed Tails.

"B-But we can't leave you behind Sonic!" Tails called out worried.

"Don't even think about trying to save me Tails! I've already been infected." Sonic said, holding the Zombot on the ground.

"W-What?" Tails asked confused.

"One of those things bit me earlier, and I was barely able to escape with my life." Sonic explained showing his other arm with the bite wound.

Izuku stared at the wound with nothing more than concern, if Sonic turned into one of those things he'd be practically unstoppable. Izuku grabbed onto Tails and pulled the fox-boy with him out the window that he and Sonic crashed into in order to get to him. As soon as they left however, the house itself suddenly collapsed to the ground as the infected broke down the foundations of the building in order to reach the trio.

As Izuku and Tails rushed down the street, the duo could only keep their eyes on the road ahead of them. Neither stated a word about the screams of agony coming from the house that had once belonged to Tails, nor the tears that fell from both of their eyes. Izuku kept glancing behind them as the large horde of the infected soon coalesced upon Tails' home as Sonic's screams became far louder than they had originally become. As he and Tails rushed through the streets, Izuku took note of how Eggman was seemingly still in the area for this attack that was happening, looking over at Tails who had taken notice of Eggman as well he looked to Izuku.

"What are you planning Izuku? I know that you can't stay in this area for too long, they'll notice!" Tails asked, worriedly.

"You go get everyone away from the forest nearby. Use one of the Freedom Fighter Aircrafts that is around the corner but be aware of your surroundings... those things know how to set up traps." Izuku said, as Tails nodded.

"Be safe out here." Tails said, as Izuku nodded.

As the fox disappeared around the corner, Izuku started to use one of the powers the Void gave him. The ability to fly through the air without having any issues. He flew high into the air and floated above Eggman as he stared down at the wreckage below his current position in the sky. Floating down to be behind the smartest man on the planet, he looked about the area for whoever might be with the scientist who had wanted nothing more than the destruction of Mobius. Looking to another nearby building, he found Manic currently fighting some of the Zombots as Eggman gathered combat data from the safety of his hovercraft.

Izuku soon found himself floating just under the hovercraft and quietly opening one of the wire ports where the controls to his hovercraft were located. He quietly took apart the wires that connected the hovercraft's ability to hover and fly through the air without any kind of problems. Once he closed it, he floated behind Eggman once more before waiting for the doctor to take notice of his presence behind him, and it didn't take much longer for Eggman to do so.

"So the prodigy appears! It's been a few months since I last kidnapped you, how has your vacation been?" Eggman questioned, not really asking Izuku how he was able to fly.

"You started this mess, correct?" Izuku asked, folding his arms over his chest.

"You are looking at the person who had created this problem, yes." Eggman said, as Izuku appeared before him grabbing his overcoat.

"Do you have any idea of the level of damage you could do to Mobius!?" Izuku yelled in his face.

"I would advise you to stay away from my face, rodent." Eggman growled.

"No, I would advise you to look after yourself Eggman. Your days are numbered now that Sonic is dead." Izuku said, an angered expression on his face.

"And how would you know my days are numbered, I will never die!" Eggman growled.

"Because, I said the same thing to Sonic before all this happened. And what I said came true." Izuku said, as Eggman glared at him.

"Are you threatening me?" Eggman questioned.

"I'm not threatening you; it's a promise." Izuku grunted before turning to leave.

Eggman immediately pulled out his laser pistol and shot at Izuku's exposed back, hoping to kill him with his guard lowered. Before Eggman could figure out what in the world was happening, a portal appeared in the form of a red ring teleporting the laser blast to a different area. Eggman blinked at this before Izuku suddenly appeared right next to his face, kicking him in the nose causing blood to spurt out before his hovercraft fell to the ground below. Landing on the ground, Izuku grabbed Eggman by the mustache as he threw him into a nearby building before kicking him in the stomach indenting his outer layer of his body.

As Eggman groaned on the ground, Izuku then grabbed the man by the face and slammed him into the ground multiple times. As soon as Eggman was reduced to nothing more than a man in a puddle of his own blood and pieces of his own bones that had been beaten out of himself, Izuku had left the area. He had more important things to do rather than deal with Eggman at the moment, such as making sure that everyone within the forest was out of the immediate area.

Izuku was about to turn around the corner when he came across a horrifying sight. Most of the city had already been transformed into Zombots, but what stood out to him the most was the fact that there were two people who were incredibly dangerous as Zombots. Sonic and Shadow were the ones who were very dangerous as a Zombot due to how fast the two could become if they were to transform into those creatures, and standing in front of him was both of them. Sonic's sleeker baby blue metal sheet gave off to his more crimson-colored eyes as he groaned about the area, bits and pieces of his body torn off.

But as for Shadow, the black hedgehog appeared to be a light red color with black quills for his metallic frame. He grunted at Sonic who appeared to not even be listening to him before the two of them took note of Izuku's presence in the area but looked behind him to find Eggman laying in his own blood. They glared at the man for all but a moment before looking to the healthier opponent who stood before them both. Letting out a shriek of fury and rage, the two rushed at Izuku with extreme speeds that he could barely perceive due to his Void Powers being too new to him.

Dodging the first swiping attack from Shadow, Izuku had kicked him high into the air before teleporting behind him. Izuku slammed both fists into the back of Shadow's spine, launching the black hedgehog robot into the ground below himself before Sonic leapt at him from a nearby building. Twisting his body to the left, Izuku was barely knicked by the robotic claws of Sonic before he landed on the ground and Izuku worried about having been infected due to being scratched. Waiting for the metallic ooze of the two to spread on his lower torso, he was greatly relieved to find that he wouldn't be infected from being scratched.

Smirking to himself, Izuku created a large red ring that would teleport the two to a dimension where they would need to run for hours to get back to Mobius. As soon as they were out of the picture, Izuku used another ring powered teleporter in order to get over to Tails and the others as fast as he could, knowing full well the fox would be the one to try and find a cure. Just as he was about to enter the ring, he was accosted by someone new, he had white quills as well as blue eyes as he glared at Izuku whilst using his telekinetic powers on the rabbit.

"Who are you?" The hedgehog questioned, his blue iris's burning with confusion and anger.

"Um, not that I wouldn't wish to answer you... but I think we need to get out of this area before we're found." Izuku replied as the hedgehog nodded.

The two would then leap into the red ring that Izuku had used to teleport the two away from the situation.

Leaving behind Eggman who was slowly being encroached by a familiar looking Echidna... and he didn't look too friendly this time around.

Chapter Text

"Who are you!" A voice called out to Izuku, who had been staring at the Silver quilled Hedgehog.

He had multiple forms of quills moving over his head and down his lower back. The hedgehog's very own blue eyes glaring down at Izuku with nothing more than a very vicious anger in them as he held the rabbit closer to him in anger. Izuku placed a palm over the hedgehog's wrists before he spoke in a small but even tone.

"I'm Midoriya Izuku! But I go by Izuku the Rabbit here, we need to get out of here!" Izuku grunted out as the hedgehog glanced around.

He didn't make a sound further, but he dropped Izuku to the ground before they both floated into the air. The two would then take off out of the city, the hedgehog following after Izuku as soon as he decided to make his way towards the forest. The two would soon arrive inside the forest as they would find that it was in utter chaos, the Heroines who had been at the forest earlier were fighting a massive horde of zombots on their own. Rouge and Surge were gathering the children and making sure to get into a hovercraft nearby that had been bought by Vanilla in the last couple of weeks beforehand.

Reaching the group, Izuku helped the Heroines in fighting the zombots... the hedgehog using his telekinesis to assist. He noticed how they were strangely looking more feral than the original group that he'd learnt from his future had destroyed his timeline. Once the zombots were dealt with, he turned to Izuku who had helped the others onto the hovercraft Vanilla had bought with the rings she had on hand a few weeks ago. Before they took off the hedgehog pulled Izuku away from them in a bid to find out what in the world was even happening due to all the zombots in the area.

"Alright Rabbit, start talking!" The hedgehog said, as Izuku glanced around the area.

"As I'm sure you're aware, I have been trying to make sure that everything was taken care of in the city. But the whole zombot situation wasn't my fault, it was Eggman once again." Izuku stated, clenching his fists.

"I can see that, why haven't you all just disposed of that worthless man already?" The hedgehog questioned.

"I was planning on ending him in my earlier fight with him... but I felt as though him dying to his own creations was far more fitting." Izuku said, as the hedgehog nodded.

"It would be both ironic and cathartic for him to die by his own hand. Anyway, we're heading over to the Freedom Fighter Headquarters... correct?" The hedgehog questioned.

"Yeah, can you please inform me as to who you are now?" Izuku asked, looking exasperated.

"My name is Silver. Silver the Hedgehog, and this might come off as a surprise to you... but I come from the future." Silver said, introducing himself.

"You come from a future huh? I wouldn't put it past anything in the future to create time travel there, not that I'm even against it." Izuku replied as he started to walk away.

"What? You don't have any questions about time travel?" Silver questioned looking at Izuku expectantly.

"Any and all questions I would have are probably going to be answered later when this whole situation is dealt with. Not to mention if you're here then that means that the future has gone to hell." Izuku said, as Silver nodded.

"Then there is nothing to question about you being in the past, so long as you don't do anything to change the future too much you should be fine." Izuku said, as the two climbed onto the hovercraft.

Within a few more moments after the two climbed aboard the hovercraft, Vanilla had flown it towards Freedom Fighter HQ. The flight there wasn't something to be desired as each and every person inside of the hovercraft was looking worse for wear. Izuku had also noticed how one of the female Heroines had been looking about the place with a worried expression on her face, and Izuku moved to get a closer look at her. It was Pixie-bob who had been glancing about the room with worry and confusion, and as soon as she noticed Izuku glancing in her direction as well as walking towards her she knew her time was up.

"Is something wrong, Pixie-bob?" Izuku asked, concerned.

"One of those things bit me, I'm not sure what happens when that happens... but I know enough about Zombie films to know what needs to be done." Pixie-bob stated looking at Izuku with a small smile.

"How long has it been since you were bitten?" Izuku asked, as Pixie-bob thought about it.

"About maybe 10 minutes? I'm not sure, we were all fighting in order to survive back there." Pixie-bob stated, as Izuku nodded.

Moving over to a nearby med-kit, he had pulled out a tourniquet with some bandages. Reaching into his realm of powers within the Void Dimension, Izuku tried to find anything that could be of use in order to take off Pixie-bob's arm. It was slowly becoming more infected as time went on and he didn't want to make sure that she was infected further without having taken her arm off to save her life. She could get a bionic arm to replace her old one, it wouldn't be as effective as her flesh and bone arm but it would at least get the job of saving her life done.

Izuku then found a power within the Void as he transformed his arm into a dark blade. Pixie-bob stared at the blade with rising fear before Izuku placed it a few inches above where she had been bitten by one of the Zombots. Looking into her eyes, Pixie-bob's expression showed an increase of fear as well as worry as Izuku began to softly press down on the limb making sure that her blood-flow had stopped. Blinking in confusion as to why he was even doing this, Izuku glanced at the other heroines in order to make sure that they hold the woman down, Ryukyu and Nejire moving over to assist him.

Holding Pixie-bob to the ground, Izuku pulled his arm in the air and hesitated for a singular moment. Pixie-bob's expression showing resignation on her face as Izuku dropped his arm down towards Pixie-bob's slowly increasing infected arm a few inches away from the bite mark. The blade sliced through the limb with terrifying accuracy as the arm fell off her body, and Pixie-bob let out a harrowing scream of agony before Ryukyu and another Heroine used fire to cauterize the wound before bandaging it. They wiped some sweat from their brow as they watched Pixie-bob writhe in agony before she suddenly passed out from shock.

Izuku sat near her as she placed her head upon his lap, making sure to keep track of her pulse. There was a lot of things he wanted to do to Eggman, but it was ironic to allow the scientist to be killed off by his own creations so he would hold off for now. Moving over to check up on her vitals, Silver noticed that there was no more of that strange metal liquid upon Pixie-bob's body that Izuku had also noticed. The two mobian's letting out a sigh of relief, same with Rouge and Surge who had been seated nearby with Eri and Cream on their laps whilst Vanilla drove the hovercraft.

Within the next few hours, the group would soon arrive at Freedom Fighter HQ. Landing outside the platform reaching inside the place, Izuku found that Tails was already present inside the building the fox doing everything he could to distract himself. Izuku noticed how the fox was becoming more and more stressed over time, and he didn't know what to do in order to help the fox feel better. So, deciding to stay quiet, Izuku moved away from Tails as he worked on his latest project... the cure for this Zombot disease. Having collected some of the metallic sludge with his Tornado plane whilst he was escaping from Central City.

"I will save Sonic, even if it gets me killed." Tails muttered to himself.

Chapter Text

It had been a few days since the Metal Virus had taken Mobius by storm, nobody was prepared for the sudden attack. Izuku and Tails could do nothing but watch from the safety of the Freedom Fighters main base of operations within the outer limits of Knothole. Looking through all the cameras that were within the certain zones that were a part of Mobius as a whole, the two couldn't do anything but watch as innocent civilians and Mobians were killed in brutal ways. It got to the point that Tails couldn't watch the camera's all over the planet anymore as he went into the bathroom to throw up everything he'd had for lunch that day.

Izuku remained inside the camera-room as he stared at each camera all around the planet. Looking through each camera, Izuku couldn't help but feel at fault for all of this even happening in the first place... especially for all the innocent children being killed. He would see from multiple camera's where children rushed through certain alleyways and nearby streets with hundreds of the undead after them. By the time they would reach around another corner, they would be cornered and torn apart and eaten whilst they were still alive... it caused him to let out a sigh of relief that Cream and Eri had been rescued when he got there.

Izuku folded his arms over his chest as he thought about a way to help those around the planet. He had all this power, power that was gifted to him through Lord X who had chosen him as his successor in order to save the world. Sure his power was nothing to Sonic and Shadow as the two hedgehogs were the only one's who were powerful enough to even combat this kind of thing. It really sucked to see how both of them had been turned into those things, and what made it worse was how Shadow could easily teleport to random locations with Sonic racing through the streets biting anyone he came across.

His assumption about them returning back to Mobius within moments was not wrong. They had apparently returned back to Mobius literally moments after he and Silver had retreated from Central City. Sighing to himself, he heard the sound of the door behind him opening up revealing Amy and a few others who had returned back into HQ in order to see if they could come up with some kind of plan. And without Sonic or Shadow, their options of taking on the undead infected was slowly running out as Tails was constantly inside the lab attempting to recalibrate a vaccine from the Metal Virus.

Amy walked up to stand next to him, a worried expression on her face as she stared at the camera system. She watched as innocent civilians were eaten and torn asunder before they transformed into another number to the infected with a sad expression on her face. Glancing over at Izuku, she found him to be staring at the camera's with nothing more than building fury at what Eggman had done to the planet and somehow, they were running out of ways to save it. His hands clenched at his chest as his ears flopped back and forth with nothing more than the agitation of how a rabbit would express their anger.

"Do you think that we can save the world this time?" Amy asked, concerned.

"No." Izuku said, looking at the cameras.

"What do you mean by that?" Amy asked, a little angry.

"I mean that there is nothing we can do to stop the Metal Virus this time. Eggman told me himself that he made sure that there was no vaccinations that could stop the Metal Virus and I left him behind to be eaten by those he created." Izuku said, as he glanced at the ground.

"Kinda dark, but he deserves it... I wish Sonic was here to help us all." Amy said, as Izuku sighed.

Izuku watched as Amy turned around and left the room he was standing in, leaving him alone by himself. He was about to leave as well when a familiar face showed up in front of him, it looked similar to Sonic, but he held red eyes and rotted teeth. It seemed that even in Death, Lord X always finds a way to cause mayhem to Izuku and those he wishes to help and protect from any and all harm. The Demonic hedgehog just stared at him with a smirk on his face before speaking to Izuku in a low but condescending tone.

'Is that really how you are going to give up? I thought you would do anything to save everyone you care for?' Lord X questioned, with a tilt of his head.

"Eggman pushed us too far this time, he managed to get Sonic and Shadow as part of his undead nightmare of an army. We've lost." Izuku said, as Lord X chuckled.

'That may be true, but that doesn't mean there isn't a way to stop this.' Lord X quipped as he floated in the air.

Izuku gave the demonic overlord of the Void Dimension a cursory glance before focusing his vision on the cameras. That was when Izuku decided to speak once again, although unaware of how a few people were listening in on his conversation with himself.

"You know a way to end this, don't you?" Izuku questioned.

'I could tell you the way to end this, but it requires you to sacrifice everything you've built.' Lord X said, giving a small incentive.

"What would I need to sacrifice in order to save everyone and Mobius?" Izuku questioned.

'Everyone you care about will forget who you are, but at the same time if you hang out with them enough, they will remember. At the same time, you will lose all the confidence and hope you had gained with them around you... all those who you have grown to care about will forget you, entirely.' Lord X said, incentivizing the decision.

Izuku remained silent the entire time after that, allowing those words to marinate inside his head. He then made a comment to Lord X about a thought occurring to him in that moment.

'I can restructure the entire Universe... although it would take about a few minutes to do so. It would leave you in a coma if you were to try it.' Lord X stated, looking at Izuku with a confused expression.

"How long would I be placed inside the coma?" Izuku questioned again.

'I don't see why you would wish to reconstruct the entire Universe... what reason would you do that?' Lord X asked, curiously.

"If I'm going to rewrite the entire Universe, then I'm going to make sure that Eggman wouldn't make the decisions he'd made to get this far. I'd make sure that he wouldn't ever think about destruction, I'd reconstruct him to becoming a proper member of society... probably make him a very well-known engineer." Izuku said, keeping his gaze on the cameras.

'That is within the power I gave you, but it would require you giving them up in order to complete this.' Lord X stated.

"I'll do it in a heartbeat." Izuku stated.

'You would give up absolute power, just to save those around you? I knew that you were the best user of my powers, as my Creator said before... Before Creation comes Destruction.' Lord X said, smiling before disappearing into the darkness of the room.

As soon as those words left Lord X's mouth, Izuku found himself staring at the camera's with a little more hope. There was at least one way he could prevent this from happening and keeping those he cares about, safe. Taking a deep breath, Izuku turned to leave the camera room before finding Rouge, Surge and Nejire standing in the doorway to the room itself. Freezing in place, Izuku watched the hurt and fearful expressions on each person appeared for a few minutes before they trembled in what he thought was unrestrained rage.

He lowered his head in preparation for whatever they planned on doing, but he was not expecting them to pull him into a hug. Blinking in confusion, he lifted his head and found it sticking up between Rouge's chest as she stared down at him with a smile on her face. She brought him up into a kiss before Surge had done the same, Nejire stayed on the side as she wasn't in a relationship with Izuku at the moment. But at the same time, it looked as though she wanted to do the same thing to Izuku... but she had another thought on her mind at the moment.

It was who Izuku had been speaking to all alone in this room.

"Izuku, I know that you aren't one to talk to yourself. Who were you speaking to?" Nejire asked, concerned.

Deep within the forest just outside of Central City, a very disheveled Dr. Robotnik was shown struggling to keep himself safe. His hovercraft had been wrecked due to Izuku having been nearby and breaking apart the wires that allowed it to even hover in the first place. He grumbled to himself about how he wanted to get vengeance on the little rodent due to his arrogance in believing that he would die to his own monsters. Although even Eggman had a feeling that he was being watched from afar from within the forest... he didn't let it control his mind however.

Ivo was one of the most intelligent people on the planet, there was no way he could be caught off guard. He had back up plans to his back up plans, sure he wasn't prepared to be caught off guard whenever Sonic or Shadow attacked him on occasion but that didn't mean he wasn't prepared. Each and every single base he had created in the many years he'd been fighting the Freedom Fighters had given him experience in how they fought him. Sure he used the same techniques and tech sometimes, but that just allowed him to improve on what he had already on hand.

Though, he really needed to figure out how he was going to put that green rodent into the ground. That little bastard had made his hovercraft completely immobile! Eggman focused his efforts on recalibrating the hover vehicle as he used some small tools. Sweat fell down his head as the hot sun increased the level of heat in the air and Eggman was beginning to have the feeling increase of someone watching him. Sitting upright from where his hovercraft was at, Eggman glanced around the area surrounding himself and felt a shiver go down his spine.

As soon as Eggman felt that shiver, he grabbed a screwdriver and walked backwards near a tree. His gaze looked in all directions, trying his very best to keep his gaze on every single possible direction those monstrosities could come from. He was about to let out a sigh of relief before he noticed movement out of the corner of his view, it was a light blue blur that rushed past him in the background. It was also followed by a light pink and black blur as it came from his left before he found himself standing in front of two highly dangerous individuals.

Sonic the Hedgehog and Shadow the Hedgehog, and both were frothing at the mouth as they glared at him.

Chapter Text

Izuku remained within the camera room, completely unaware of the people listening in on him talking to himself. His expression grim but at the same time determined to make sure that everyone is saved from the grim reality of the Metal Virus. Eggman had failed to create a vaccine based on what the man told them, and now the world was incapable of being saved. Sonic and Shadow were the two strongest bets against the Zombots. But with both of them under the control of the Metal Virus, it was all over.

Sonic was their last line of defense against the Zombots, and he had been bitten at the start of it all. And Izuku could only think about the argument he had with the blue blur as they had been at odds before all this happened. Sighing to himself, Izuku prepared to head out of the room to begin the process of rewriting the universe as a whole. By the time he made his way towards the door, everyone who had been listening in on his little conversation with himself scattered. Leaving the camera room, Izuku moved towards the top floor of the base so he could get on top of the roof.

Once there, he would create hundreds of clones of himself. Giving them all one singular order, save as many people as you can but don't let anyone who is bitten within Freedom HQ. As soon as each and every single clone of himself left the rooftop, he began to use a spell with Lord X's assistance. His face scrunched up in effort as he pulled at powers far beyond his comprehension. Back inside the base, Rouge and Surge looked at one another with concern. They'd never seen Izuku act like this, much less in a way that prevented himself from being happy. All the boy had ever wanted was to be happy and live a life without the dangers of reality gave.

The life he'd lived was harrowing and filled with strife, now he was going back to that through this spell. Both female Mobians had felt sad when they heard him talk to himself, especially when it came to rewriting the universe as a whole. If he were to do that then everyone would forget who they were and the relationships they had all been a part of. Neither of them wanted that, so they wanted nothing more than to help Izuku find another way.

But it was already too late, Izuku was already deep in the making of his spell in order to back out now. They knew this, so they did their very best in order to spend as much time as possible with him before the inevitable happened. Sitting next to him, both women plus Eri had watched as black magic began to surround the boy. Small forms of stars fluttered within the small tendrils floating about the boy's body as he focused on the spell. And if they strained their ears hard enough they could hear the whispers of Lord X talking to Izuku as he focused on rewriting the universe.

"That's it Midoriya, you're doing it! Soon the Universe will be rewritten, and all those you care for will be saved!" Lord X's whispering call was heard.

"Please be quiet, I'm trying to focus." Izuku mumbled under his breath.

"Why should I? I'm a figment of your imagination, I'm only here to give you the courage to continue with this." Lord X's vestige stated right next to Izuku.

Izuku remained silent as he continued to focus on the spell. In all his life, he'd never thought that Magic was actually real... but ever since Lord X had entered his life. He thought twice about it and thought nothing more about after the first time he spent time thinking about it.

The black tendrils moved around his body as more and more stars began to show up around the tendrils themselves. Rouge and Surge would watch on in curiosity, Eri watching as well with stars in her own eyes. Izuku's face scrunched up in effort as he pushed his mind to further create the known universe from Mobius.

Soon enough however, Tails came to the rooftop to inform Rouge and Surge about the incoming threat. As he burst through the rooftop door, he found the girls watching Izuku as he continued to use the spell Lord X had given him. Tails rushed over to the girls who finally took notice of his presence and called out to them all.

"Rouge! Surge! We need your help setting up the defenses!" Tails said, urgency on his expression.

"What's going on?" Rouge questioned.

"The Zombots are coming here!" Tails said, fear evident in his expression.

"Let's go! Eri, stay here with Izuku. Make sure that he stays' safe from any and all harm." Surge stated before rushing off with Tails.

The little girl gave the two Mobian women a nod and thumbs up as she kept an eye on Izuku as his face began to darken.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

With Rouge and Surge, the two were rushing after Tails as the small fox had done his very best to set up the defenses. They got onto the manned machine weapons that Tails had used to upgrade the facilities defenses after Eggman's last attack before all this happened. The fox manned his own weapon as he began to fire unrestrained ammunition into the horde.

Rouge and Surge did the same as most of the other Freedom Fighters had followed after their lead and defended their base. All around the base however, the horde began to surround it making sure none of those within could escape. And over the course of the next few hours they would begin to cause structural damage to the building.

Vector and those who were a part of the Chaotix Detective Agency manned the weapons as well as CQC group as they defended those inside. Vector led the charge against the undead as he punched, kicked and bit down on any and all infected. Those who were brave enough to fight alongside him were following his lead doing everything in their power to prevent the dead from breaching the building.

Of course, there were a select few who managed to break into the building but they were handled by Mobians who had weapons. Such as Whisper the Wolf and Tangle, the duo doing everything in their power to prevent the undead Zombots from breaking through formation.

As time went on however, the Freedom Fighters realized that they would eventually fall. Most of them preparing an escape shuttle in order to get as many people away from the building as possible. Mostly women and children were on the ships that Tails had spent hours earlier on in the day fixing up. But that didn't mean that many people were dying, most of those fighting on the front lines were torn to shreds or bitten.

This meant that either the Freedom Fighters had to put down those of their allies and friends and family or join them. Some weren't capable of doing so, allowing their friends to turn and begin to break the formation of those inside. Eventually though, those that could escape were rushing towards the ships that would allow them to head to a different location. Tails manning the controls of the ship as they slowly began the take off sequence.

Back with Izuku and Eri, the two were standing still on the rooftop, the building rumbling from all sides of their location. Eri looked concerned as Izuku remained in his position, the amount of magic seemingly being poured into this spell causing him to sweat heavily. The little girl noticed that the door behind them was being banged on, the Zombots had broken through the facility.

As Izuku focused his mind on the spell he was undergoing the creation of, he sensed the fear coming from Eri. The little girl doing everything in her power to make sure that the door wouldn't be slammed open. And for what little time the building's integrity had left, Izuku decided to make a decision... creating a large golden ring he pointed at it with one of the black tendrils. 

Eri looked at him with confusion unable to understand what Izuku was trying to tell her before he spoke up.

"Eri, I know that you are scared. But this Ring will bring you to Tails and the others, I know that you want to stay with me... but this place is no longer safe. I will be fine, just get out of here." Izuku said, in as calm a voice as possible.

"B-But what about you?" Eri asked, concerned and moving towards him.

"I'll be fine... I just need you to get out of here. I'll hold them off." Izuku said, as he used some magic in order to create stainless steel chains around the door's handle.

Eri would look at Izuku with nothing more than concern and worry. All before she rushed to him and hugged him as tight as she could, tears falling from her eyes as Izuku kept his eyes shut and his arms extended outwards. He focused his mind on furthering the spell he was undergoing, Lord X whispering all the way that he was nearly finished.

As soon as Eri pulled away from Izuku, she rushed towards the Golden Ring and jumped into the ring itself. As soon as the ring made a chime that someone went into it, the large object shrank into non-existance. A smile would appear on Izuku's face as he began to think about a song that would fit his situation... a lone warrior left alone to fight an innumerable enemy.

The more he thought about it, the more his smile broadened. Izuku couldn't believe that this was happening, but he wouldn't have it any other way at this point. He'd done his job in making sure that Eri had managed to escape with her own life. Just as he was about to finish the spell, he heard the sounds of the door behind him breaking apart.

Triple Trouble The Encore Charted

That was when Tails' ship had flown up above the building. Eri and those on board would watch as the undead broke free of the chains holding the door shut. The little girl letting out a scream of fear as the undead charged towards Izuku as he stood still in the middle of the roof. Tails could only watch on in rising horror as the young mobian stood his ground. He held up one hand in a snapping motion as the first infected came upon him.

It leapt at him, arms extended as Izuku ducked under the first one. And as he leaned back upwards he sent a kick into the undead Zombot's head knocking them off the roof. He then jumped into the air, his eyes opening up watching as another infected was on him in the air. They had wings on their back as he kicked them also in the face before slamming his free foot into both their wings.

He dodged and weaved through the incoming infected as he showed speed not seen before in Tails and the others expressions. As he continued to dodge and weave through the enemies coming towards him, two familiar faces appeared. Doctor Eggman, and Sonic appeared in front of Izuku as the two glared at him with all the hatred that they could muster.

But Eggman appeared to have been infected early on, as he growled at Izuku with everything he could release from his mouth. The two leapt at Izuku as Eggman rushed Izuku on foot with Sonic leaping into the air with a spin-dash. Izuku ducked under Eggman's sweeping arm strike before being smashed into the building causing his visage to disappear from view.

Tails not wanting to stay around for much longer took off towards the distance. 

Back with Izuku, he held his arm up in the air as he prepared the snap of rewriting the entire Universe. Tears streamed down his eyes as he watched the incoming monsters coming towards him at all sides. There was too many for him to defeat on his own, and it would only be a matter of time before he'd be torn asunder. He was about to snap his fingers when he realized something, he never saw Rouge and Surge on the ship.

Looking around the horde of infected, Izuku saw them. Rouge and Surge were still fighting the infected, as they were incapable of escaping from their area safely. Using some magic, he created a giant ring for them to escape within... they didn't wait for any longer after noticing it behind them. Leaping into the ring, the two disappeared from the soon to be crumbled building.

With the girls he loved out of the blast radius of what he was going to do he smiled. This one filled with determination as well as sorrow as he finally snapped his fingers. As soon as this happened, everything around him flashed white for a millisecond. Knowing that this would be his final stand, he entered a combat stance cloning himself six times.

Each clone knew what to do as they prepared to fight an unending horde of infected. With the spell fully complete, Izuku used the remains of his strength to fight off the horde within the remains of the Freedom HQ. His smile never faded as each one of his clones were eventually defeated and pressed back into his mind. The rabbit continued to fight for his life as he was smashed through the building and fell on his back outside.

As he got back upright, he watched as the ship Tails flew was continuing off into the sky. And then he felt his arm get bitten by one of the infected. Before he could feel anything off about his body he used a black tendril to slice the limb off before he could become infected. Leaping back he created a new arm for himself as he continued to attack the infected horde moving in on him.

He ducked and weaved through each and ever infected before another managed to bite down on his leg that he amputated once again. It was his job to make sure that the others made it as far away as possible before the world was rewritten. He was about to duck under another attack when a large figure grabbed hold of him from behind. Looking behind himself, he found that it was Big the Cat as his face became horrifying from the large chunk of his face bitten out of it.

Sharp teeth then sank themselves within his neck causing Izuku to let out a loud scream of pain before reaching his free arm into the air. Snapping his fingers once again, Big the Cat was obliterated and turned into pieces of reforming metal. Stumbling backwards, Izuku looked down at his wound on his neck before kicking another infected away from himself.

Off in the distance to his right, he found that a white light was making it's way over to him and the infected. A massive sadistic grin entered his expression as Izuku continued to fight as hard as possible in order to keep the infected all on him. And within seconds the white light had managed to reach his position, as all the infected managed to knock him down.

Blood splattered the ground as Izuku felt his insides begin to be crushed, and eaten whole as his eyes slowly lost their color. His body as well became more metallic in appearance as he struggled to keep his sanity. The smile however was still on his face before his body and the infected struggling to eat him suddenly vanished from existence.

"From Me to You, I shall rewrite this Universe as you see fit." A whisper stated to Izuku in his final moments.

Chapter Text

Mobius.......... Regeneration Slowly Beginning.......... Starting Protocol 19456........ Insert Dimensional Rewrite...... Dimensional Rewrite has been completed.

As the white light encompassing everything around him had slowly began to die down, Izuku soon finds himself all by himself. He looked in each and every direction, trying his best to search for where everyone could've been and gone. Everything around him was a white void, something that he was not liking at all... but at least Lord X's plan was a good idea since now nobody has to die an excruciatingly painful death. Standing up from the ground in the void, he begins to walk around the void... to see if he could find anyone who could've survived the rewriting of the entire Dimension.

No such luck however came to him as he searched for any survivors. Looking at his glove covered palms, Izuku felt as though his body was slowly changing from that of a Mobian and back into a human. And that feeling was correct as he watched the glove covered hands switch back into his original human hands, each one trembling with a mental trauma he hadn't felt since he was back in his old world. Sighing to himself, he decided to walk down the path leading towards the unknown... the fact that he hasn't run into anyone at this point concerns him but not enough to where it would be a nightmare of loneliness.

"Hello!!! Is anyone there!!!" Izuku called out, feeling scared of being alone again.

"..."

Izuku stared off into the distance, wanting nothing more than to hear the sounds of Rouge and Surge speaking again. His arms began to tremble as the slowly settling fear of being alone again was starting to radiate off his body. But as this was happening, his body then transformed back into his Rabbit Mobian form and everything around him slowly began to change back to normal. And as soon as Izuku got out of his soon-to-be panic attack, he found himself sitting back in the Great Forest.

Blinking in confusion, the young Rabbit looked around his surroundings. Standing up from the spot he'd been sitting on the ground, he began to look around his surroundings and saw the hundreds of giant trees sitting in the ground around his position. Walking through the forest, Izuku made sure to walk in the general direction of the Rabbit home within the forest... only to find that there was nobody there. Tilting his head at the home in the forest, he knocked on the door... he waited for a moment before shrugging his shoulders.

Entering the home, Izuku found that the place didn't have any of the items that belonged to Vanilla and Cream. This meant that the two didn't move into this place as of yet, and he felt extremely sad about this since he couldn't meet them once again. As he looked around the home, he eventually came to the bedroom that had once belonged to him and saw a small dresser in the place and opened it up. Inside he found a small box that he pulled out and opened, revealing some items that he'd thought were brought back to the Sol Dimension.

The Sol Emeralds.

Izuku blinked at this before pulling them out to stare at them with confusion. He grabbed one of the gems before placing as much as his memories as he could inside them, only to feel no energy coming from them. As soon as he realized that they weren't going to work, he placed the emeralds back inside the case and closed it. Leaving the bedroom, he walked towards the front door and took a deep breath as he stared at everything around himself.

For the time being, Izuku decided to just work on the forest around himself. That way he could at least try and see what was going to be happening in this version of the Dimension that was rewritten.

What Izuku didn't realize was the fact that he may have rewritten the Universe/Dimension... but he'd also rewritten the entire Multiverse. The fact that he didn't realize this, was due to the matter that he was so lonely he never noticed how time was slowly fast-forwarding to the moment where he was killed by the Zombots. As this happened, he didn't realize the vehicle closing in on the home that he'd been living in for the last few years.

Izuku was walking outside the door to the house inside the Great Forest as he saw someone outside. They were black in appearance; a strange foreboding presence was felt from the individual as Izuku noticed something odd about the monstrosity. Izuku tilted his head at the strange person, they were taller than he currently was as he had a strange heat coming from their stomach as well as a strange orange-red color.

"Hello? Who are you?" Izuku questioned, as the figure turned around.

{Prime Directive: Secure Potential Food Source for Doctor!} The robot said, rushing towards the Rabbit.

"What!?" Izuku called out, as the robot thrusted their palm at him.

Ducking under the incoming attack, Izuku kicked the robot in the stomach feeling his shoe heat up slightly. Looking at the stomach, Izuku realized that he'd kicked what felt like a furnace as he moved away from the incoming arms that had closed in on him from both sides. He leapt into a nearby tree as the robot leapt after him, a burst of flames blasting out of their back as they began pursuit. 

"WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOU!?" Izuku screamed, as he ran through the forest.

{RETORT: I am Designated as FURNACE!} The robot replied.

As Izuku rushed through the forest before realizing a very morbid fact. There was no animals that he could see living within the forest, and he couldn't help that something horrifying had happened in this newly rewritten universe.

He continued to run through the forest, feeling a vast wave of fear building up inside his body and mind. He dodged another swiping clawed hand as he leapt into the forest at a faster pace than before, his mind running through all sorts of solutions to what happened. There was no reason as to why Doctor Robotnik had created a robot such as this, especially one who seems highly intent on placing him inside their stomach... which oddly resembled a Furnace.

As the Rabbit ran through the forest, his mind feeling at the edge of it's sanity for the first time since he'd come to Mobius, Izuku decided to just think about it later. He had much bigger problems at the moment than to think about what was going on at the moment. Especially with the fact that THE ROBOT WAS CLOSING IN ON HIM!

Izuku rushed through the forest further as he tried his best to keep himself from falling short of escape. His mind rushed with the fact that there shouldn't be a robot right now who had this appearance since based on his knowledge, Eggman never had a robot like this. Of course, he'd never met Robotnik's robots before aside from Metal Sonic and those of the Metal Virus who had been causing problems for Mobius in the previous Universe.

Sighing to himself, Izuku made sure to see if he could find a way to escape. If he was able to do so then that meant he could find out where Sonic and the others were located, and if he could find them that meant that he could have some assistance with this.

{I am Superior to All Organic Prey! Submit to our Authority and be Detained!} Furnace yelled as he closed in on Izuku.

"Not when you are actively trying to burn me to smithereens!" Izuku called back before noticing a large golden ring.

Running as hard as he could, Izuku attempted to reach the golden ring before Furnace could block him. Just as he was about to reach the ring, he heard the sounds of flames rushing towards him from behind, and Izuku leapt into the air managing to get into the giant ring. As soon as he'd leapt through the ring, it closed around him taking him to another location on the other side of Mobius, the robot; Furnace, had growled where they stood angrily glaring where the ring once stood.

{Must inform Robotnik about Prey's Escape.} Furnace growled before walking away.

[] [] [] 0w0 [] [] []

As soon as Izuku appeared on the other side of the Giant Ring, he fell onto the grass below. Coughing up some dirt and soot, Izuku took in his surroundings before noticing how awful the place he'd appeared at looked. The entirety of Green Hill Zone was in flames, dead animals on the ground looking as though something had come by and torn them to shreds before seemingly eating them... piece by bloody piece.

If Izuku's face didn't have green fur on some of it, his face would've turned green from the image. Walking through the remains of Green Hill Zone, Izuku tried to figure out what in the world could've happened in this dimension that allowed this to happen. He knew from past memories from Lord X that he'd done the same thing here, but the fact that Furnace was around didn't mean that it could have been Lord X's first attack on Mobius.

This was someone else's handiwork. 

He continued to walk through Green Hill Zone before coming across a horrifying sight. Cream and Vanilla had been laying on the ground, their hands intertwined with one another as a large chunk of both their heads and body were torn apart. Tears fell from his eyes as he moved closer to the two as he tried to wonder what in the world caused these two to have been injured and killed in such a way. Placing a palm over his mouth, Izuku couldn't hold back the bile before throwing up in a nearby bush.

Izuku was just about to continue on before he saw something else... the body of Knuckles. The echidna who had been absent from everything in the other Universe until he and the others arrived at the Freedom Fighter Headquarters. He didn't know what happened to Knuckles before the Rewrite of the Universe, but Izuku knew for a fact that this kind of end wasn't in the cards for the echidna back there.

The Rabbit felt even more sick to the stomach as he stared at the corpse of Knuckles. It appeared as though he were fighting something before having his hands taken off before his head was placed on a pike... but his torso and legs were gone. Looking back at Vanilla and Cream, it seemed as though they were both the lucky ones when it came to their demise as they still had their entire bodies intact.

"What in the world happened here?" Izuku asked, voice shaky.

"Who are you?" A voice called out to his right.

Izuku leapt back as a strange weapon slammed into the ground, a large Piko hammer. Looking up, he found Amy as she stood there with worry in her expression before taking in Izuku's appearance. The Rabbit looked elated to see her, Amy not really knowing who he was but wasn't one to look a gift-horse in the face and abandon them she rushed him with Izuku looking at her in fear. Just as he was about to dodge another strike from her, she tackled him to the ground hiding both of their bodies in the grassy area of Green Hill Zone.

Izuku looked at Amy really closely as she held him down, not even caring for the position they were in. She would watch as Furnace flew overhead and continued down the path towards what appeared to be Scrap-brain Zone. Both Mobians would let out a breath of relief before Amy climbed off Izuku before standing up and brushing off the dirt and some flakey blood from her dress and helping Izuku up.

"Like I said before, who are you?" Amy questioned in slight confusion.

"I-I'm Izuku... Izuku the Rabbit." Izuku stated, as Amy's eyes widened in confusion.

"Cream didn't tell me that she had a brother, much less one who was green in color." Amy said, a bit guarded.

"I don't know Cream, if anything I don't know Vanilla all that well. Do you know what's going on here?" Izuku asked, as Amy led him to her secret base in Green Hill Zone.

"I don't know what exactly is happening, but it all started a few days ago. Sonic went out to search for one of Eggman's bases, only he never came back." Amy said, as Izuku gulped slightly.

"Where was he last seen?" Izuku asked, as Amy flinched slightly.

"He was last seen near Metropolis Zone. But he's never made contact with any of us after arriving there, we think Eggman had done something to him and is blocking our communicator with him." Amy said, rubbing her left arm.

"So he was over near Metropolis Zone and disappeared there? Do you know why that robot, Furnace is out and about?" Izuku questioned.

"I don't know... all I know is that Sonic was heading in that direction. He could still be there searching and is staying radio silent due to Eggman being last seen there... but aside from that I'm not sure. How do you know that robot's name?" Amy questioned a little suspicious. 

"He told me himself; he attempted to hunt me down for a Doctor. I'm not sure myself, that was why I was asking you." Izuku said, looking lost.

As the two arrived at the Freedom Fighter Headquarters inside Green Hill Zone, Izuku noticed something odd. Tails was standing alone inside his lab as he held an eyepatch over his left eye... as though something had torn it out. Izuku was about to ask him what was wrong before Tails came around whilst holding some items and handing them over to Amy who had grabbed them immediately and looked them over.

Tails stared at him for a moment before speaking.

"Hey, I recognize you... Do I remember you from somewhere?" Tails asked, confused.

"Sorry I wouldn't know." Izuku said, lying through his teeth.

"Hm... oh well. We really need to find Sonic; he's been gone for three days now... and I'm getting worried that he won't ever come back." Tails said, looking worriedly at a tracker.

"Is that the tracker you're using for Sonic?" Izuku asked, looking at the tracking system.

"Yeah, I placed that in his ear so that we could always know where he was. I still remember what happened when Metal Sonic tried to take over Mobius after Eggman went missing." Tails said, shivering.

"I'm sure that you all will be able to find Sonic. There's no way he could've fallen that easily, remember he's been through far worse." Izuku said, as Tails nodded.

As much as Tails wanted to trust this new guy, he had a feeling that something was odd about him.

1 Week Ago

Sonic can be found running through Green Hill Zone, the smile on his face showing off how he felt about this moment. It had been around a week and a half since he'd last defeated Dr. Eggman, who he loves to call Robuttnik, just to get him angry. It was so easy to make fun of the doctor due to his egg-like shape that it wasn't even funny anymore, oh who cared it was still hilarious to Sonic to make fun of the man's appearance! The fact that Eggman hadn't done another attack on those of Mobius did concern the blue blur but last time he checked, the man couldn't give up his dreams of showing Sonic his place under the man's heel.

Sonic chuckled at the words coming into his mind about Eggman's actions towards him. Eggman hadn't declared that he'd ever kill Sonic before, just that he wanted to prove to the blue blur that no matter what he'd do the mind would always surpass that of the body. Something Sonic didn't really care about since he'd defeated Eggman's intellect many times in the past, and the blue blur had a feeling that this time the good doctor would do something truly challenging this time. It wasn't anything to do with how Eggman hadn't done anything for a week without telling the world about it, he usually does that but it's the premise that counts.

Sonic was racing through Green Hill Zone when he came across a sight he'd never seen before. Dead Flickies and other animals that were Mobian in appearance, it looked as though some were even cooked! His Heroic mind began to check the area for whoever had attacked the place and left such harrowing sights behind, the least whoever did this could've done was give them a proper burial instead of leaving them to rot! Taking a deep breath, Sonic began to search the area for who the killer for all these innocent creatures really was... that was until he came across a red echidna fighting a large black robot.

It was tall, taller than Sonic was himself. It stood at about 6 feet in height, black coloring all around it's body and had the stomach that was burning with heat. The appearance not too dissimilar to that of a literal Furnace. He made his way over towards the fight, preparing to actively fight against whoever was fighting here only to freeze in place when seeing Eggman's distinct appearance.

This was not the Eggman he'd once known, Eggman held a head of mustache hair under his nose. This... creature, held Eggman's appearance but his skin was red in color, and his eyes were blocked off by a strange dark abyss. The man turned away from the fight currently occurring between the red echidna and the literal lookalike for Sonic but had flames bursting out from it's back. The man stared at Sonic as though he were something to be eaten, or something else entirely... Sonic couldn't get the creepy vibe he'd gotten from Eggman's visage out of his mind.

The man looked like he'd torn most of his skin off and what remained of his body was that of musculature from the body that remained under the skin. Sonic was about to leap out to save the red echidna before he saw something horrifying, the echidna let out a yelp of pain as his left arm was sliced off. Then went his right arm, after that it was his left and right legs at the same time... all before the echidna, still looking in great pain had his head taken from his shoulders. The machine then grabbed the echidna's torso and mid-section and tossed it inside of their stomach as he watched the flames become greater in heat and height.

The robot then turned to look at Sonic with intrigue before Eggman's distinct sounding voice spoke up.

"Ah, it seems that you've found us... Sonic." Eggman boasted with a sadistic grin.

[] [] [] 0o0 [] [] []

Sonic could only stare in horror at what he'd just seen. Eggman had just greeted him, and all Sonic could see was Eggman reaching into the machine's stomach and pulling out a charred echidna torso and began to tear into it. Sonic had never felt more disgusted and horrified in his life, and he'd fought the man for an extended period of time before meeting Tails and the Freedom Fighters. Staring at the red tinted man eating the remains of the echidna, Sonic didn't move as he felt as though he were about to be next and wanted to save his energy for that moment.

Eggman tilted his head at the hedgehog for a moment before continuing his consummation of Mobian flesh. It took a little bit before the literal oven made of machine parts walked over to Sonic with a curious expression in their non-existent gaze.

"I. Only. Seek. To. Give. My. Creator. His. Food. You. Appear. To. Be. Fearful. Why? " The machine stated, and Sonic could only feel sick.

"T-That's just sick! Why are you e-eating a Mobian!" Sonic questioned, anger getting the better of him for this moment.

"It's always why this and why that... the real question you should be asking... Am I Next?" Eggman said, chuckling.

"You won't catch me Egghead! I'm faster than you think." Sonic retorted.

"You want to stress test that, hedgehog?" Eggman grumbled as he stood up having finished his food.

"Are you asking for a race? Because I'm ready anytime anyplace." Sonic growled, green eyes glowing with power.

"Then meet me at Stardust Speedway within a couple days. That way we could view who is really the smarter and... stronger than the other." Eggman said, with a sadistic grin.

"I'll see you there Egghead!" Sonic said, racing off.

"Oh, this'll be a treat, Furnace get him." Eggman said, with a grin before taking off towards his base.

"Do. You. Wish. To. Eat. Him. Now. Doctor?" Furnace questioned.

"No, make sure he knows the fear of God when you're through with him. Let him live a little longer, that way he'll always live with the fact that you are around just another corner." Eggman said, before taking off in his hovercraft.

With that, Furnace blasted off after the blue hedgehog. Sonic racing down the hills within Green Hill Zone as he glanced over his shoulder to see the silhouette of Furnace chasing after him instilling a little bit of fear in him. Rushing as fast as he could through Green Hill Zone, he heard the sounds of Furnace reaching for him the mechanical sounds of his rusted joints clacking behind him. Sonic's eyes became pinpricks as he felt the heat of his opponent reaching out for him, feeling that death was literally only a few inches away from him.

He leapt forwards before turning around and spin-dashing into Furnace's stomach. Right on the cover for his inner furnace, the robot sliding across the ground before Sonic leapt onto a nearby platform before slamming down with another spin-dash on top of Furnace's head. The robot managing to dodge the incoming attack, Sonic landing on the ground before spinning around and jumping towards him with a spin-kick. Furnace grabbed the offending limb before swinging the hedgehog in a circle causing him to let out a yelp of surprise before feeling himself slammed into the ground.

Furnace stood over Sonic with a blank expression on his flames that lit up his eyes with an orange-yellow glow. Sonic stared at the eyes for the robot for what felt like a few minutes before Furnace spoke up in a way that allowed Sonic to feel fear bubble up inside his chest.

"Let. This. Be. A. Warning. Of. Our. Future. I. Will. Win. Our. Race." Furnace said, planting his metallic foot on Sonic's chest.

"Don't think that you'll beat me this easily next time, I'll be far stronger then!" Sonic growled under the super hot metallic foot.

His chest felt a large burn being implanted there as he let out a grunt of pain before Furnace stood upright and away from the blue hedgehog. Sonic watched with astonishment as the robot took off into the sky flying towards the general direction of Eggman's original base. Sonic would let out a brief gasp of air as he placed a hand over his chest, feeling his heart racing inside his ribs. This was the first time Eggman created a robot that had placed fear in his heart, Sonic felt as though he were going to die at the end of this fight... he didn't want to imagine how next time would go.

Sonic could only hope to win that race.

3 Hours After Sonic's Encounter with Furnace + Starved Eggman

Sonic found himself running down the path of Green Hill Zone with both fury and fear on his mind. He'd just gotten into a fight between Eggman, one who really enjoys eating the flesh of Mobians animal or humanoid, whatever he gets his fingers on is fair game aside from other humans. The longer he ran the more time he had in order to think about what in the Hell he had witnessed when it came to Eggman's appearance. Sonic would soon manage to get his head out of his own rear end as he thought about his next move against Robotnik and his new creation in the form of Furnace.

He would pace back and forth as he thought about how Eggman challenged him to a race. The logical side of his brain informed him about how Eggman was trying to get into Sonic's head about putting his mind not on the soon to be battle rather than staying focused on his mission. And as of right now, that mission that Sonic is currently going to undergo was making sure Eggman couldn't hurt anyone else than whoever he'd managed to nab. It wouldn't take much longer for Sonic to get through his head that he would have to go to the site where the race would be taking place, if not to save whoever possible, to reclaim the pride lost to his chest and ego.

Sonic would speed across all of Mobius heading towards Stardust Speedway. But before he would even arrive, he'd come across a peculiar sight, a pink hedgehog standing near the edge of the Zone with a smile on her face. As soon as he got close to the girl however, Furnace soon arrived by breaking through the wall and grabbing the pink hedgehog by the throat floating in he airs in front of Sonic. The blue blur leapt at Furnace managing to free the pink hedgehog as she rushed off into the distance, in a bid to escape from the metallic monstrosity.

"The. Doctor. Has. Plans. For. You. Hedgehog." Furnace growled at the blue blur.

"Well, tell him that his plans are going to be foiled today!" Sonic said, before rushing off becoming a blur of blue.

Furnace would stand still before disappearing over the horizon. His black form becoming nothing more than a speck as he made his way towards Stardust Speedway to begin his search for the hedgehog once again. Only this time was Furnace planning on going all out against the blue blur, knowing full well from Eggman's intel that Sonic gets stronger through experience as well as age. 

As Sonic sped across the entirety of Mobius, he soon arrived outside of Stardust Speedway. His expression cold as he stared at the surrounding area, his knowledge of the area due to past experiences of coming through the area, his expression was very oddly quiet. He spoke out his frustration as well as confusion as he slowed to a stop after arriving to Stardust Speedway.

"Geez... I haven't seen an animal for miles! Looks like Robuttnik has been working overtime!" Sonic quipped to himself, as he looked over the edge.

"TARGET SPOTTED!" A very familiar and robotic voice called out.

"Huh? Do I smell... *Sniff* smoke?" Sonic asked, confusedly.

"TARGET. FOUND. ON. STARDUST SPEEDWAY! Now I cannot afford any more delays!" Furnace replied appearing in front of Sonic, causing the hedgehog to leap back in surprise.

"Seems I'm greeted by my fake instead! Didn't think you'd look more like a buckethead!" Sonic quipped back again, beginning to run down Stardust Speedway.

"Laugh while you can hedgehog, for our victory is nigh, each step of the doc's plan will have you sleep with the flies!" Furnace retorted.

"Wow, such big talk with no meat to all those claims don't go and think your hot stuff, just cause you're literally in flames!" Sonic retorted whilst being interjected.

"Don't try!" Furnace interjected Sonic's retort.

The two would run down Stardust Speedway at high speeds, Furnace using the flames coming from their core to increase their overall speed. Sonic kept his own speed lowered just to play with Furnace knowing full well that the robot couldn't keep up with his speed when they are on a long road. The two would head up and down different paths as Furnace stayed close to the blue blur in a bid to catch up to him and what came after Sonic didn't know.

Their speed increased the further they got into Stardust Speedway, Sonic going up and down platforms following a set path. Furnace managed to fly around multiple ups and downs before he noticed that his core was overheating and needed to fall back. It wasn't that far into the race that Sonic smirked at the fact that he'd outran something that was made to counter him perfectly, as Eggman had told him back in Green Hill Zone.

As he continued to run, he kept his gaze behind himself for a few seconds. All the while talking to himself.

"Seems like that bucket of bolts had to lay off the nitro this time around. Hey, Redhead!! You might want to fix your toys~" Sonic said, taunting the red Robotnik as he sat in his newly fixed hovercraft.

"YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR FATE, HEDGEHOG! HEHEHEHUAHAHAHA! AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!" Starved Eggman laughed as he flew his hovercraft through the air.

Sonic followed after Eggman as the two began their battle with one another, the red skinned man taunting Sonic the entire time. Sonic landed multiple blows on his hovercraft as Eggman launched multiple missiles at Sonic in exchange. The two landed heavy blows to the other but it didn't stop the other from not holding back from the other. 

"WHY ARE YOU EATING US MOBIANS! HUH?! ANSWER ME ROBOTNIK!" Sonic called out.

"All that the past for I need, something more succulent to quench my cravings and feel content!" Eggman called out, stretching an arm in Sonic's direction.

"What is that even supposed to mean!? " Sonic yelled.

"Naive." Eggman said, before continuing further on his explanation.

"It can't be serene or probably obscene!" Sonic said, after Eggman called him naive.

"Is it too hard to perceive...?" Eggman questioned before elaborating.

"None meets the appeal, like your kinds deceased! A savory meal for a GRAND OLD FEAST!" Eggman called out, his arms spreading out on both sides of his vehicle.

"WHAT!? Say it's not true!! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! That's sadistic and DOWNRIGHT SICK!" Sonic screamed, in confusion and fury.

"Deny... But it's no lie!! It's so enrich the taste has me hitched, the texture and the flavor is one I want to savor!!" Eggman ended.

"You're mad!!" Sonic called out interjecting with Eggman. "How can you look so damn glad!?" Sonic called out again.

"How could I just protest?? How could I just detest?? When it's superb quality has gotten me possessed!!" Eggman retorted.

"You've reached a new height of heartless, although regardless, I can't let this stand anymore for those whose blood stains on the floor! The stakes may be severe, but for those that I hold dear, best say your prayers 'cause we're gonna end this all right here!" Sonic replied angrily chasing after Robotnik with more fury than before.

The two had gone up and down multiple pathways at this point, Sonic actively slowing down in order to try and talk some sense into Eggman. Although, what was going on actively at the moment wasn't really going to help him in the long run. Considering he could've outpaced Robotnik the entire time, Sonic was trying to get to the bottom of why Eggman would even wish to hunt Mobians and consume them. Especially since this diet the doctor was undergoing at the moment was doing a lot of... changes to his appearance that Sonic really didn't like.

As the two reached an area where it was a flat surface for a road to travel, they kept their speed low. Mostly for Eggman to constantly taunt Sonic into attacking his hovercraft and keep his eyes on the doctor and not who was coming up behind them at a large distance. Eggman couldn't see his ally, but at the same time he knew that part of the plan required him to keep Sonic's view on himself therefore getting himself placed in the highest form of danger. If it worked, then that meant Furnace could go far ahead of the two in order to cut them both off and catch Sonic by surprise.

"I fully agree, but it's you dear prey who shall soon beg and plea stuff you in a brew and make myself a fine hedgehog stew!!" Eggman called out, in a taunting manner.

"Your macabre tastes are about to eat a filling heel-to-face!! For all that you had it's about time that you paid your tab!" Sonic retorted back at the starving Eggman.

"This hunger I bear's endless, who cares if it is horrendous?" Eggman questioned staring down at Sonic.

As Sonic was about to retort, a figure is seen by the reader. It is flying at very high speeds under the speedway that Sonic and Eggman are racing one another on, the black figure soon passes by Sonic and Eggman and continues further. Although, Sonic at the time this happens is feeling a shiver down his spine the more Eggman talks about wanting to eat him specifically.

"TELL THAT TO YOUR FOODS FAMILIES! IN THE WAKE OF THESE CALAMITIES, YOU ARE PUTTING THE LIVES OF INNOCENTS IN DANGER DON'T YOU SEE THAT!?" Sonic screamed at Eggman.

"Your flesh is due, for dinners in the afternoon!! If it's the last thing I do, I'll get you, blue baboon!" Eggman called out, in a singalong voice.

"Nothing will stop me from ending your twisted obsession, I'll set them all free, from your malnourished oppression!" Sonic called back to Eggman as he sped up the hovercraft.

"I commend your foolishness, the dull are the tastiest for those of maliciousness!!" Eggman retorted.

"I hope that the dirt tastes just as fine, cause you're soon about to dine on my spin dashes sharp spines!!" Sonic retorted.

"As we reach the Grand Finale, I can't help but feel glee, nuisance, you will not be missed after you GET A LOAD OF THIS!" Eggman called out focusing on the roadway ahead of himself... something Sonic wasn't doing at the moment.

"Don't bother to count it, I refuse to submit! You're not gonna hear me beg, so best believe I'll scramble your eggs!" Sonic retorted, once again.

"Such a ravishing scent, our time will be well spent I can hardly wait, for YOUR MEAT TO BE ON MY PLATE!!" Eggman called out as Sonic spoke up to have one final retort.

"We've far reached the line's end, of your darkest descent, this hedgehog ain't gonna simmer cause once again... I'M THE WINNER!" Sonic called out, just as Eggman did.

"You will... suit as... THE FINEST DINNER!" Eggman called out at the same time as Sonic.

As soon as their word battle was over, Sonic slammed up into Eggman's hovercraft. The damage dealt to the vehicle being too much for Eggman to handle as it fell down in the background, Sonic smiling with glee as he'd defeated Eggman once again. Only this time, the doctor was not going to get away from him... Sonic wanted to give his old enemy some good final words before taking off... unaware of what was in front of him.

"Man!! You really like scrambling your own plans don't ya-" Sonic called out, as something broke through the ground beneath him.

Turning to look at what had come out in front of himself, Sonic found Furnace glaring at him with orange fire. The robot breaking through the speedway and grabbing the hedgehog by the face and slamming him into the ground, rings bouncing out around him. As Sonic was slammed into the ground, a piece of his head split open causing blood to fall from the injury as he stumbled about the area Furnace in the background slowly walking to the blue blur. As soon as Sonic managed to get a read on his situation, he turned around to find Furnace mid-range as their arm was extended to grab him.

Leaping away from the metallic look-alike, Sonic took off running once more. His mind fully on escaping from the area just to survive another day, as he continued to run however, Furnace was gaining on him and fast. The fires coming out from behind him giving a turbo boost in order to catch up with the blue blur. Just as Furnace was about to grab the blue hedgehog, Sonic noticed a giant ring nearby and leapt towards it. Furnace was able to grab Sonic's shoe, but the hedgehog was able to escape into the giant ring.

"Primary Mission: Failed. Hedgehog escaped." Furnace growled, as Eggman walked up to him.

"Don't worry Furnace, we'll be able to get him next time. After all, it's going to be very hard for him to not attack us when we're attacking all Mobian-kind." Eggman said, cackling the entire time.

As the two gathered their belongings, a figure was watching them from afar. A pink hedgehog staring at the two with massive amounts of fear, with the two leaving her behind without even realizing that she had watched their entire race. As much as the hedgehog wanted to call out for help, she knew that there was little to no hope for that dream ever becoming a reality... Sonic had just barely escaped from Eggman and Furnace. They're going to need some other kind of assistance, that is until Sonic can return and bring Eggman both to justice as well as down for good.

Looking in the distance back towards Central City, she would see a large and bright pillar of light. And it was in the forest near where Cream and Vanilla had once lived, the pink hedgehog would call upon the Freedom Fighters to go explore that portion of the woods. Hoping beyond anything that whoever just appeared in their world, wasn't a Mobian since they would be able to take care of Eggman.

Chapter Text

Present Day

A pair of feet could be heard stomping on the ground, a small figure rushing through the plains of Green Hill Zone. Ears flopped back and forth as the figure continued to rush down the pathway heading towards Sonic's last known location. Puffs of air blasted out of the mouth of the individual as they made their way across Green Hill Zone, looking in all directions for a possible enemy that could be searching for them. Soon after finding a spot to rest for a few minutes, the figure paused near a tree and leaned against it sweat falling from the forehead of the individual.

This individual is Midoriya Izuku, or in this world... Izuku the Rabbit. The green rabbit had been searching all over Green Hill Zone after Tails had dropped him off here, the place looking more akin to that of a dead zone. The grass, trees and animals that laid about the area were dead and turning orange in color... something that made Izuku feel sick to his stomach at the sight alone. Taking a deep breath, he activated his power at a low percentage and rushed off into the distance, green sparks of electricity bouncing off his form as he ran down the path.

Green eyes glanced around the area for a hidden foe who has yet to show themselves. By the time Izuku had left Green Hill Zone, he soon arrived at Marble Zone after an hour of running through the last bits of Green Hill. He stopped over near a lake as he leaned over it and began to drink from it, quenching his thirst as soon as he took in his surroundings of Marble Zone. Much like Green Hill, the plants and animals that lived here were all strewn about or fallen apart... as though something or someone had pushed through the place and caused mayhem.

"I need to find Sonic, the sooner the better." Izuku muttered to himself as he activated his lightning powers once more.

Running further into Marble Zone, Izuku came across a sight that had the green rabbit bewildered. Standing all by their lonesome was Furnace who had apparently been frozen still as the heat that surrounded himself was increasing in intensity. Izuku mentally prepared for another fight between himself and Furnace, knowing full well what the machine's real reason for being here was probably to cook something for his creator. Quietly, Izuku searched the area for whoever could be nearby since if Furnace was in this location his creator shouldn't be that far behind him if Izuku thought about it.

Once getting into a strategic position in order to begin his escape should a fight occur, Izuku noticed something odd about the air. Looking back towards where Furnace had been, he noticed that the mechanical menace was no longer in his original spot. Blinking in confusion, what had appeared to have been a mirage had been moved away as his eyes watered slightly forcing Izuku to rub at them. By the time he'd finished blinking and rubbing the water out of his eyes, he felt a presence behind himself and instinctively ducked under a sweeping, arching swipe of a clawed hand.

Turning around to see who had attacked him, Izuku blinked in surprise as it was Furnace. But something was off about the robot this time around, Furnace this time, was quiet... oddly silent during this interaction. It was as though the original Furnace wasn't there anymore and replaced by a simple machine doing the bidding of it's creator, without any choice in the matter. Jumping over a flying kick, Izuku took off into the nearby brush with Furnace flying after him not too long after, flames blasting out the back of his oven.

Running down the pathway of Marble Zone, Izuku took the upper path leading to a bunch of loops and small crevices. Furnace, however, had been breaking through each and every piece of material that Izuku had placed in front of himself before using a sudden burst of speed to attack the green rabbit. Izuku ducked under the speedy attack just in the knick of time before he swung out a lightning infused kick into the robot's back, burning his shoe slightly. Looking at his boot, Izuku frowned at how the bit of his attire was scuffed from the fire before focusing back on the robot once more.

Izuku entered a fighting stance as he glared at his newfound enemy in Furnace. The robot letting out small whines through his mechanical body, joints letting out small screeches and creaks before entering a combat stance of their own. Izuku waited for the robot to attack him first, seeing as he'd learn more about the mechanical beast if he just tried to dodge and weave through their attacks before even attacking it. As Izuku had always thought, it's better to observe your opponent make their mistakes rather than fall into the same trap yourself.

A small breeze pushed through the air as Izuku stared down his opponent in the appearance of Furnace. As Izuku focused his entire being on Furnace's appearance, he noticed how the area was slowly becoming a mirage. Leaping into the air, Izuku watched as Furnace's expression followed his new position before leaping after the green rabbit. Following the robot's leap, Izuku tilted his body to where he could maneuver himself around the mechanical menace. Just as Furnace was reaching out to him, Izuku twirled around and kicked Furnace in the back, sending the robot back down to the ground.

As Izuku slowly began his descent back towards the ground himself, he decided to try another skill he'd learnt in his other timeline. Flapping his large ears, as hard as he could, he began to generate lift and began to flee the area. If there was anything Izuku knew about himself and his power, brought forth from Lord X's last visit into his body, Izuku knew for a fact that he couldn't stand against something built to fight Sonic. The green rabbit just wasn't powerful enough on his own to take on a threat that was similar to Sonic's speed, power as well as strength... there was just no way he could win on his own.

But that didn't mean that he couldn't flee to survive another day.

As his ears continued to flap in the air, Izuku could feel his ear muscles beginning to strain. He'd never actively used this skill in the other universe due to how taxing the strain on his ears had been whenever he'd attempted to use said skill. He was thankful however that Cream taught him how to fly before the whole Metal Virus event happened again near Central City once again. 

By the time Izuku had reached a good distance from the robot, he found himself reaching the outskirts of another Zone. This one looking eerily familiar to himself as he took in the surroundings that he'd willingly brought himself towards. As soon as Izuku stopped, he found a convenient sign hanging off the side of a nearby tree.

'Welcome to Spring Yard Zone!'

Hearing the sounds of a blast furnace coming up behind himself, Izuku rushed further into Spring Yard Zone. In his bid to escape from the robot, he'd inadvertently brought it over to another ally within the Freedom Fighters... one who had been surviving all on their lonesome due to how they avoided everything. He was a literal giant of a Mobian, his large appearance due to how much he ate all on his own before noticing a robot bearing a resemblance to Sonic, but dark in color and mechanical in appearance. Izuku rushed by this Mobian by pure chance, as the robot changed targets.

Izuku hadn't meant to bring Furnace to another Mobian, but he had no clue that the large Mobian was even there. So as he heard the sounds of fighting going on behind himself, Izuku took this chance to escape from the area and continue his search for Sonic.

What Izuku was not really paying any attention to, was the simple fact of how the large Mobian had actually defeated Furnace on their own. Their large size helping them disable the mechanical menaces' burning attacks due to their already wet fur and fishing pole allowing him to throw the literal monster far away. Comedically, the robot finally managed to speak to the Mobian before screeching about going to kill them before becoming a star in the sky.

The longer Izuku spent running, the more his mind began to wander. His mind continued to race as he thought about what could've happened in order to change Eggman's decision on fighting the Freedom Fighters as a whole. Sure, the fact that Eggman went down another path in this universe was probably due to how he'd never even thought about what to do about Eggman, but he didn't think it'd get this bad! And the more he thought about it, the more he began to believe that the reason Eggman is this way was due to how he didn't try and eliminate Eggman from the equation.

'Remember who you are, you are one of the Freedom Fighters!' A thought called out to him mentally.

As Izuku mentally beat himself up, he noticed a change in the scenery. He had been so distracted with his thoughts, that he'd never noticed how he'd managed to reach one of Eggman's destroyed bases. Izuku had been so distracted, that when Izuku came out of his head and thoughts he'd already managed to make it to Scrap Brain Zone. The place was looking worse for wear, as though Sonic had already gone through here and began to destroy the place earlier.

"Since when did I get here?" Izuku muttered to himself.

"Oh, you're already here? I would've thought that Furnace would've disposed of you when he first found you." A familiar smarmy sounding voice called out.

Looking to his right, Izuku found Starved... standing across from him fixing up his hovercraft. The red tinted being looking vastly more intimidating that he'd used to when he still had his hair and apparently lips. His red tinted body reminded Izuku of how a Devil would look, and he had to say... it didn't do anything for Eggman's appearance.

Izuku stood across from Eggman, or as this version of Mobius called him... Starved Eggman. Izuku hadn't realized this beforehand, but the man had actually grown a few inches from the last time he'd actively seen Eggman which was back in Central City in the previous Timeline. He wondered what had happened to Eggman in this Timeline's Mobius to cause Eggman to take on this appearance and intimidation factor, not to mention creating Furnace in the first place. Glancing around the area for wherever Furnace could be, considering Furnace was always near his master and creator.

"If you're looking for Furnace, he's searching for the one Mobian who defeated him handedly." Eggman said, continuing to fix his machine.

"How did you know that was what I was thinking?" Izuku asked, as Eggman chuckled.

"Naive, did you really think I couldn't hear you mumbling under your breath? I may be somewhat dimwitted, but I'm no idiot." Eggman grunted, still fixing up his hovercraft.

"What could've happened to make you turn this way?" Izuku asked, concerned.

"Why should I tell you? A mere brat who shouldn't even be alive in this timeline." Eggman questioned, causing Izuku to pause.

"Because this brat is the one who rewrote the entire Universe due to your alternate Universe's actions of causing mayhem and destruction." Izuku growled his ears flicking back in anger.

"You can rewrite the entire Universe?" Eggman inquired.

"Not anymore, it was a one-time thing with the powers of an Eldritch deity within my body. I can no longer use those powers he'd given me." Izuku said, not really knowing why he was giving this information to Eggman of all people.

"Pity, you would've made an excellent source of infinite food for myself." Eggman said, before finishing the last touches on his mechanical hovercraft. 

As the two glared at one another, Eggman pressed some buttons revealing very sharp weapons. Rushing towards the mad doctor, Izuku leapt and rebounded across Scrap Brain Zone as the two rushed down the set pathway. Neither one paying much attention to the addition of another person showing up in Scrap Brain Zone, their red and blue ship flying high above the Zone itself. It was soon revealed to be Tails himself, looking down to where Izuku and Eggman had been located... as much as the fox didn't want to admit it he was very wary of Izuku.

The fact that he'd shown up literally a week after Furnace and Eggman had first made their kills was very suspicious. But because of that wariness, Tails had planted a sound device on the rabbit's fur to make sure that the rabbit could be trusted. And due to the abilities, he had, the green sparks of electricity moving across his body whenever he launched an attack at either Furnace or Eggman fully made Tails have both respect and faith in the green rabbit. He'd overheard how Izuku had rewrote the universe due to Eggman's previous actions in that other universe and that brought the fox to the realization that he did know Izuku from somewhere.

Because the two were good friends back in the previous timeline.

As soon as those thoughts finished themselves, Tails' memories from the previous timeline had returned. His eyes watering at the memories of this body's current life, especially with the loss of both Cream and Vanilla... not to mention Knuckles. Flying his plane towards the last known location of Eggman's underground base of operations, Tails knew exactly what he needed to do. In order to restore everything in this timeline back to normal... he needed to use Eggman's technology to create a Timeline rewriter so that he could fix this timeline.

He didn't care about the consequences of his actions, if this action brought back those who were killed.

He'd do it a thousand times over.

Chapter Text

Scrap Brain Zone, 1800 hours

Green sparks could be seen bouncing from building to building as a small rabbit leapt around avoiding laser attacks from Starved. The red skinned man getting more and more furious as his attacks continued to miss it's mark continuously that he called in a little backup. As the rabbit leapt towards another building, a metallic being stepped out of one of the buildings and grabbed the rabbit and threw them down towards the ground below. Landing on the ground, the rabbit would stare up at the two who were now going to be chasing after him in a bid to either kill him or eat him alive.

Not wanting to be eaten for dinner, Izuku had taken off towards the distance. His body producing green sparks all around his body as his speed increased by a large quantity, his shoes slowly blurring as his speed increased. Starved and Furnace gave chase as they rushed after the small rabbit, bringing them all the way to the edge of Scrap Brain Zone as Izuku took off towards a nearby forest. Leaping from tree to tree, Izuku bounced all over the place making his next move nigh impossible to predict before Starved got into a position to fire another laser at the rabbit.

Taking fire at the rabbit, said rabbit leapt away from the laser and slammed into his hovercraft. As Starved let out a yelp of fear from nearly falling out of his machine, Izuku had leapt back up towards the hovercraft and pulled out more wires to force the device to fall to the ground. Furnace leapt at him this time, swinging a clawed arm towards the rabbit's head that Izuku ducked under, but not without losing a bit of his large, oversized ears. As Furnace cooked the ears from Izuku's head that he'd managed to slice off his head, Izuku would watch in horror as Starved reached over and ate them.

"Hmm, needs to have some more thyme before it's fully good enough. This Underground Mutton does indeed taste good, however. I want more!" Starved said, drool falling out the side of his mouth.

"As. You. Wish. Doctor." Furnace stated before launching towards Izuku with renewed speed.

Leaping away, Izuku decided to not banter with the robot knowing full well that the moment he lowers his guard he'd be killed. Leaping away from Furnace's first attack, which was an air leg sweep, Izuku smashed his fist into the robot's chest as it stood there in the air for a moment. Tilting their head at his sudden attack, Furnace went to speak at Izuku with disdain before thunder had resounded across the sky before lightning struck the machine. Falling from the sky and into the dirt, Furnace let out a wail of pain before climbing back up to his metallic feet before glaring at Izuku who had now been staring at him with confusion.

The two would stare at one another for a few minutes, Starved Eggman glaring at Izuku during this time. He would pull out a laser gun and point it at Izuku's direction before the rabbit would disappear from his position with Furnace doing the same thing. The two would appear high in the air as they clashed fists and clawed paws lightning striking where the two were before they landed on the ground again.

Bouncing away from Furnace, Izuku spun around in a circle before kicking dirt into the air. Furnace blocking the attack with one metallic arm before blasting the dirt away with his furnace flames coming from his chest. Through the flames and dirt, Izuku leapt through it all with a small amount of burns on his fur before kicking Furnace in the face sending him into the dirt behind himself. As Furnace traveled through the dirt and towards Eggman, the red tinted man shot towards Izuku with his laser pistol as the rabbit dodged and weaved through each blaster shot.

By the time Izuku had managed to create some distance between himself and Eggman, Furnace was back up. Brushing off the dirt from his shoulders and arms, Furnace then glared over at Izuku who had been leaping into a tree to gain even more distance from Eggman. Picking up his speed, Furnace raced towards the rabbit and smashed through the tree he was using as a shield from Eggman's blaster shots. As the tree began to fall towards the ground, Izuku leapt onto another tree before leaping down from one of the branches upside-down and landing on top of Furnace's head.

The robot paused for a moment before reaching up to grab the rabbit before he felt another bit of lightning slam into himself. Backing away from Furnace as the robot was stunned once again, Izuku glanced over at Eggman who had been fiddling with his laser gun. Pulling a rock from the ground, Izuku threw it at Eggman who had taken the attack to the head without even flinching but fell backwards as soon as some blood fell from his head. Furnace noticing his creator was injured launched a flurry of attacks at Izuku who dodged and weaved through them as much as he could, but he couldn't keep this up for very long.

Turning around to run away, Izuku rushed through the forest once more. Furnace rushing after him after making sure Eggman was not too hurt from the attack, as the man continued to fiddle with his laser gun. Rushing after Izuku, the robot managed to pass by the rabbit as he kept his gaze in front of himself and watched as the robot suddenly entered his field of view right along his path. Sliding under the robot, Izuku sent a kick into the robot's leg causing it to fall to one of their robotic knees before turning their head around 180 degrees to glare at the rabbit before continuing their pursuit. 

Running down the path a bit further, Izuku soon found himself heading back towards Scrap Brain Zone. Looking over his shoulder, he found Furnace flying through the air after him the red glare from their eyes making him look far more intimidating than usual. Izuku pulled out some objects from his pocket as he stared at them with confusion, but the longer he stared at them he remembered what he found back in the house in the Great Forest near Central City. 

They were the Sol Emeralds; they were nearly incapable of being used anymore but Izuku just had to try. So as he bonded with the Sol Emeralds, he felt their power begin to coalesce into his body before a large swell of energy pounded through him. Flames began to center themselves around his body as his eyes transformed from their emerald green color to a deep crimson red as his fur gained a lighter tint to them. He would turn around and swing a fist towards Furnace who had tanked the attack head-on but was blasted through the forest behind Izuku again.

Floating in the air, Izuku stared down at the robot as they got up out of the divot in the ground. Their red metallic eyes looking up at Izuku with confusion before Izuku flew towards the robot faster than it could perceive for the moment and planted a palm on it's chest. Emerald green flames burst from the robot's body as it let out grounded roars of pain, their body twitching and soon beginning to melt from the damage being done to their chassis. Izuku would've done more damage to the robot had a laser not shot out of the forest and attempted to land a blow to his head that he blocked with a palm.

Looking over at the doctor, he found Starved glaring at Izuku with all the hatred that a man could hold. His deep empty looking sockets for his eyes stared him down with nothing more than the want to feed, and Izuku leapt away from Furnace as the robot had used that moment of distraction to try and stab him in the chest. Landing on the ground not too far away from the two, Izuku stared at the duo as they glared hatefully at him. Eggman raised his gun before Izuku blasted emerald flames towards the doctor who ducked under the attack instantly, not wanting to become a cooked egg.

Izuku glanced back over at Furnace who had suddenly gained a speed increase and stood in front of him. Ducking under the sweeping leg coming for his head, Izuku tapped Furnace's metal frame as some of it began to melt and lightning struck from the sky once more. As Furnace let out a garbled scream of agony, Izuku leapt away as a laser blast hit the ground in front of him with Furnace stepping away from the rodent before glaring hatefully at him again. 

Furnace would then reach into his chest before grabbing some burnt coals and throwing them at Izuku who had ducked under them. Still keeping his gaze on Eggman and Furnace, Izuku would see how Furnace would leap towards him again only this time aiming for Izuku's chest. Sliding to the right, the piercing attack only met air as Izuku pulled an arm in the air and ignited it with emerald flames as time slowed down. Izuku's arm represented a hot knife as he thrusted it downward towards the offending limb of Furnace who had felt his arm get broken and melted off.

Furnace stepped backward a bit as he glared at Izuku who stood across from them both. Eggman let out a howl of fury for his robot being injured this badly, and by a rodent no less, as he took aim for his laser pistol and started blasting towards the rabbit. Dodging and weaving through each of the laser shots coming towards him, Izuku landed a kick towards Eggman's head causing the man to fall to the ground next to Furnace as the robot glared at Izuku, now down an arm.

Izuku floated in the air not too far away from the robot and his creator as the two sides glared at one another. Eggman sat upright this time as Izuku stared at the two with nothing more than disappointment in his gaze, taking a deep breath before losing the newfound form with the Sol Emeralds. 

"I wouldn't have rewritten the Universe had I known this would happen to you. You used to have so much potential to save the world and protect it like Sonic, Eggman... you intelligence could've been used for the safety of Mobius... not it's destruction." Izuku said, his voice low but disappointed.

"I wouldn't ever hope to try and protect this pitiful planet of dirt and water. My only goal is to destroy both Sonic and eat every Mobian that the planet has to offer me." Eggman growled back at Izuku.

"You could've helped the world in keeping it's citizens from being left on the streets. You could've proved that there was a way for both human and Mobian life to coexist, but you decided to go down this path of... debauchery. I kind of wish that I had eliminated you in the previous timeline before it became too hard to save." Izuku said, before turning away from the two and walking away.

Chapter Text

30 Minutes Earlier, With Tails

Tails flew the Tornado towards the location of the Eggman Base that was hidden within Scrap Brain Zone. If he wanted his plan to actively work, he'd need Izuku to distract Starved/Eggman and Furnace long enough for him to activate the Universal Rewrite Machine Eggman had created in the past. The fox let out a small breath of air before looking behind himself where his namesake was located, only seeing half of one tail and his full second tail hanging from the cockpit. Frowning at the fact that he'd lost one of his namesakes when coming across Starved in the past, he shook his head... not wanting the very cruel memory to come back again.

Tails was extremely thankful for Sonic for saving him from Furnace that time. Even though the blue blur was nowhere to be seen as of right now, Tails made it his mission to make sure that everything wasn't going down the same path as last time. He'd lost way too many friends and family in this world as compared to the previous world, especially since Izuku was the one to rewrite it last time around and he screwed up. 

Tails wouldn't put it past the rabbit though; it was the first time he was using a Rewriting power. Lord X had given that power to him as a final last resort, but from what he remembered Izuku telling him about the power back at the base, when they had the time, it was a onetime only power. And after that power was used, all the additional powers that Lord X had given him was completely gone and no way to use them once again. That meant that whatever power Izuku held at this point in time, it was all his own Chaos Power, and it was then at that moment he landed the plane outside of the Eggman base.

"This is it, hopefully Sonic is okay. I can only hope that he survived his encounter with Eggman and Furnace." Tails muttered before hacking into the building.

As he opened the front door, he hacked the building in order to clear the place of boobytraps. Walking through the building, he had to say that for Eggman to be capable of making all this equipment and enemies for Sonic to fight he needed to have some kind of source of income. He wouldn't be able to make all this stuff if he didn't have some kind of income to set himself up with some other kind of attack every other week otherwise.

Tails would soon enter the main engineering room for Eggman. And he couldn't help but feel disgusted with how much blood was all over the place, pulling a palm over his nose to try and cover the stench of metal and blood, but failing as he tried. Moving towards a nearby container for failed projects, Tails searched through it all in an attempt to see if Eggman had accidentally threw it out in his search for creating the new project he dubbed Furnace.

Hearing some kind of alarm coming from the camera's, Tails looked up to find Izuku actually holding his own against Eggman and Furnace. Blinking in confusion at this, he knew for a fact that Izuku didn't have a super form... so how in the world was he even capable of wielding one!? Looking through the camera's, Tails found out the hard way that each time Izuku used his newfound strength to fight Furnace his body would show a stray emerald. One he distinctly remembered being in the hands of a certain cat from another dimension entirely... that posed a question on his mind that he voiced.

"How in Mobius did he get the Sol Emeralds? I didn't think those existed at this point in time!" Tails muttered, confused.

"Tails?" A familiar voice called out.

Turning in the direction he heard the voice; Tails froze when he saw the person who was calling out to him. They were disheveled and looked as though they went through hell itself just to reach this place... and it wasn't until they revealed themselves that Tails felt his heartbeat raise. Somehow, someway Amy had made her way all the way to Scrap Brain Zone and she was heavily injured but that was beside the point she had somehow come here without him knowing.

"Amy!? How are you even here, I thought you were checking out Stardust Speedway again for Sonic?" Tails asked, rushing to the injured and disheveled hedgehog.

"I was... on my way... there. Furnace came across me, and he hurt me bad. B-But for some... reason he didn't... hurt me... too badly." Amy said, setting her arm back into place.

"How did you even escape from his clutches?!" Tails asked, concerned and worried.

"Giant... Ring. It brought me to... Scrap Brain Zone." Amy said, panting heavily.

"You need to get away from here, Eggman and Furnace are currently fighting Izuku at the moment." Tails said as Amy shook her head.

"I remember everything Tails. How we were in a relationship, as well as what happened in the previous world. Izuku caused this mess, and you're trying to fix it... aren't you?" Amy asked, as Tails frowned.

"He didn't mean for this to happen Amy, you know that." Tails said, placing his hands on her shoulders softly.

"I know... but this wouldn't have happened had he never come here." Amy said, a sad expression on her face.

"I'm going to fix the issue he had when rewriting the Universe yes. I can only hope that it's enough to change everything for good and without any repercussions." Tails said, looking down at the scraps of metal and materials.

"Let me help you make this device. We're clearly not going to have enough time to find the device ourselves." Amy said, as Tails nodded.

Over the course of the next fifteen minutes, the two set about collecting everything Tails needed to create the Universal Rewrite device. Each time an alarm went off, the two would look over a the camera system to make sure that Izuku was doing fine distracting Eggman and Furnace. And each time they searched for Izuku, they found him actively fighting the two off all on his own but over time he was accumulating more and more injuries. Especially when he was fighting at close range with Furnace and Eggman, but at least by this point in time he'd managed to nearly put Furnace out of commission due to heavy melting damage.

Time would continue to pass by for the two of them as sweat fell from their brows. They had finally managed to nearly finish the rewrite machine when another alarm went off in the building and they looked over towards the camera system. Furnace had somehow managed to regenerate all the melted metal on his body and reform his old limbs and was now taking the fight to a heavily weakened Izuku. Their time was running out before Izuku would be killed off in front of them on the camera system, and as they hurried they kept hearing alarms going off. 

Whatever was going on outside, Izuku was definitely making it hard to put the rabbit down. Each time Eggman was about to monologue about making himself some kind of mutton stew or sandwich, Izuku would get back up and fight back even harder. The blood falling down his face and nose was not helping matters as each time they would take a break from building the Universal rewriting machine he'd be getting worse in his defense. 

By the time the two had finished making the machine that would reset everything back to the way it should've been they glanced up at the camera system. Horror struck their features as they found Izuku being blasted through multiple trees outside of Scrap Brain Zone. Furnace actively blasting the rabbit with massive flames that covered his entire body and burning him at the same time, the two would set up the machine and prepare to start the machine when one final alarm scared the two of them.

Looking at the camera system, they found Izuku being dragged over to Starved Eggman. The red tinted egg of a man actively drooling as he stared down his next meal, Izuku's body twitched as his body was barely still going after having been burned to such a degree. The skin on his body was turning black and red, but the fire in his eyes were still there as he glared up at Eggman as he pulled out a bib comically smaller than what was needed. Furnace would throw Izuku to the ground as they watched as Eggman stare down at the rabbit with nothing more than a drooling hungry gaze before grabbing Izuku by his oversized ears.

Izuku attempted to fight back in this moment, using the last of his strength to kick Eggman in the chest. The attack was so sudden that Eggman fell back to the ground as Furnace had rushed to help his creator, allowing Izuku the time to take a few breaths before running towards Scrap Brain Zone. As Tails was watching over the camera's, Amy had already begun the Universal Rewrite Machine making sure that it was already started before Eggman could arrive.

"We've got to help him!" Tails said, looking to Amy.

"We need to get the machine up and running, and I need you here for that Tails!" Amy said, looking at Tails with confusion and anger.

"He won't last much longer out there; we need to give him an adrenaline shot at the very least to keep him fighting! We don't know how long it will take to activate the machine fully!" Tails explained as Amy growled before looking in the corner of the room.

Standing against the wall looking as though it were decommissioned due to failure was a blue hedgehog of a robot. Rushing over to the robot, Amy turned it on and stared at the robot as it suddenly powered on and stared at both her and Tails. Tails immediately leapt in front of her placing an arm in front of her as the robot powered on fully and stared at the two with confusion written on his features. 

{Who. Woke. Me. Up?} The hedgehog questioned.

"It was me! We need your help!" Amy said, as the hedgehog blinked at them.

{What. Of. Master. Robotnik?} The hedgehog questioned.

"He's gone awol! He's trying to eat any and all Mobians, and he's trying to eat our friend! Please help us!" Tails said, looking to the robot with fear.

{Master. Robotnik. Has. Failed. His. Mission?} The hedgehog robot asked, robotically.

"He's made a new mission to eat all of our kind, and it's upsetting the natural order! We need to fix everything, and Izuku can't hold out much longer! Can you please help us?" Amy asked, holding onto the robot's hands.

In the back of her mind, for some reason she felt as though she knew this robot from somewhere. It was as though she'd seen the robot before and brought it back to it's creator at some point in the past, but it was so long ago it was fuzzy. And that was when the robot finally made the realization about Amy and Tails' presence inside the base belonging to his old master.

{You. Save. Me. 5. Months. Ago. Bring. Me. Back. To. Creator. Pay. You. Back. This. Once.} The hedgehog said, as Tails nodded at the hedgehog.

"What is your name?" Amy asked, as the robot stared at her with cold red eyes.

{I. Am. Designated. As. Metal. Sonic.} The robot, no, Metal Sonic stated.

"Metal, please save Mobius from Eggman's destructive ways!" Amy said, as Metal Sonic pulled himself off the robotic chains holding him still.

Walking down the hallway, Metal Sonic made his way towards the end of the hall. This left Tails and Amy enough time to get started on activating the machine with enough time to actively have Izuku be rescued in the knick of time.

Present Time

Izuku dodged another attack from the burning robot as he panted heavily. It would only be a matter of time before he'd fall in this battle, as it seemed as though Furnace could regenerate from any kind of round from this battle or any battle in general. Taking a deep breath, Izuku stood upright once more his diminutive size making him look more akin to an adorable child glaring up at their parent after not getting their way. Eggman stopped across the way, his eyes glowing an ominous red color as he gazed down at the rabbit who had made this hunt extremely fun and annoying all the same.

"Do you really think that you'll survive the end of this fight?" Eggman questioned with a very confused expression on his face.

"Didn't think... that you'd... be... this... dumb." Izuku quipped back as Eggman forced Furnace to pause.

"What are you talking about, rodent?" Eggman questioned.

"Even if you manage to kill me and or eat me, you won't be able to achieve your dreams of eating all Mobian Life. Someone else will come out and make sure that you are defeated without even being capable of entering another timeline." Izuku said, with a smirk on his face.

Eggman remained silent as Furnace stood by his creator, the two-standing next to one another creating a terrifying visage for Izuku. The rabbit not even thinking he'd be able to recover from this amount of intimidation that was being displayed in the future. Not only that, but this whole week of searching for Sonic as well as looking for anyone who is still alive at this point was very exhausting and at this point Izuku was at the end of his road. Panting heavily, Izuku prepared for one final lightning strike to hit the two of them as Eggman spoke up.

"Furnace, cook him until he can't breathe." Eggman finally said, as Furnace leapt at Izuku.

[As. You. Command. Doctor.] Furnace replied and rushed Izuku.

Izuku prepared for the robot to get as close as possible before charging up one final attack. His panting form making it impossible to dodge this incoming strike from the burning, flaming robot as said robot managed to grab onto Izuku's ears just as Izuku's body began to emit green electricity. Opening the furnace opening on his chest, Furnace tossed Izuku into the flaming pit of orange fire just as a lightning strike slammed into Furnace's body causing a massive explosion.

Eggman covered his face and eyes, in an attempt to block out the large light surging from the furnace within his creation's stomach. As the light died down, Eggman stared out in confusion as he found Izuku still standing, not to mention his previous creation standing in the rabbit's original place. Izuku stared at the robot in confusion as well, his face the epitome of bewilderment.

Standing where Izuku originally was... a familiar blue rodent... but they were metallic in origin.

{Doctor Robotnik. You. Must. Be. Stopped.} Metal Sonic spoke up as his gleaming red eyes stared down his metallic brother.

Chapter Text

Scrapbrain Zone, Moments after Izuku was saved by Metal Sonic

{Doctor Robotnik. You. Must. Be. Stopped.}

The words rang out like a seismic crack through the scorched clearing, reverberating off the twisted metal trees and fractured earth. Izuku blinked through the haze of smoke and blood, his ears twitching involuntarily as the voice—cold, mechanical, and unmistakably final—cut through the chaos.

Metal Sonic stood where Izuku had once been, his frame gleaming with a fresh polish that seemed impossible given the ruin around him. His red eyes glowed like twin embers, locked onto the grotesque figure of Starved Eggman, who had frozen mid-step, his drooling maw twitching with confusion.

Izuku staggered back, his legs barely holding him upright. The furnace inside Furnace still roared, licking at the air with orange flame, but the robot had paused, its sensors recalibrating as it registered the new arrival.

Eggman’s face twisted into something between rage and disbelief. “You,” he hissed, voice thick with venom. “You were decommissioned. Scrapped. Left to rot in the lower vaults of my base. How are you even functioning?”

Metal Sonic didn’t answer immediately. He stepped forward, each movement precise, deliberate, like a blade being drawn from its sheath. His gaze never wavered.

{Five. Months. Ago. I. Was. Saved.} {By. Her.} He turned his head slightly, just enough to acknowledge Amy’s presence on the distant monitor, her hands still hovering over the Universal Rewrite Machine’s interface. {I. Owe. A. Debt.}

Izuku’s breath caught. He could barely process the shift in momentum. One moment he was being dragged toward death, his body scorched and broken, and now—now this cold, calculating force had stepped between him and oblivion.

Eggman snarled. “You think a broken toy can stop me? Furnace, destroy him.”

Furnace didn’t hesitate. The flaming robot lunged forward, its body a blur of molten metal and fury. But Metal Sonic was faster. Much faster.

In a flash of blue and silver, Metal Sonic vanished from Izuku’s side and reappeared mid-air, slamming into Furnace with a spinning kick that sent the flaming robot crashing into a nearby wall of scrap. The impact sent a shockwave through the ground, rattling Izuku’s bones.

Izuku collapsed to one knee, panting. His fur was singed, his muscles screaming, but his eyes remained locked on the battle unfolding before him.

Metal Sonic didn’t speak again. He moved like a ghost, weaving through Furnace’s attacks with an elegance that bordered on artistry. Each strike was calculated, each dodge a whisper of wind. Furnace roared, flames erupting from its chest and arms, but Metal Sonic adapted, redirecting the heat with his own kinetic energy, using the environment to his advantage.

Eggman watched, his face contorting with fury. “You were supposed to be perfect! My ultimate creation! Why do you defy me?”

Metal Sonic paused mid-strike, his hand gripping Furnace’s arm as he turned his head toward Eggman.

{Perfection. Is. Not. Obedience.} {Perfection. Is. Purpose.}

With a final twist, Metal Sonic hurled Furnace into the air and launched a homing attack that shattered the robot’s chest cavity. Flames sputtered, flickered, and died.

Izuku stared, wide-eyed. He hadn’t seen Metal Sonic fight like this before—not with rage, but with clarity. It was as if something had awakened inside him, something beyond programming.

Eggman stumbled back, his hands trembling. “You can’t do this. You’re mine. You were built to serve me!”

Metal Sonic landed silently, his gaze fixed on the trembling figure of his creator.

{I. Was. Built. To. Protect. Mobius.} {You. Are. A. Threat.}

Izuku tried to stand, his legs wobbling beneath him. “Metal… Sonic…” he rasped, voice barely audible.

Metal Sonic turned, his expression unreadable. He stepped toward Izuku, kneeling beside him with a precision that felt almost gentle.

{You. Are. Injured.}

Izuku coughed, blood flecking his lips. “No kidding…”

Metal Sonic scanned him, then reached into a compartment on his arm and produced a small vial—an adrenaline shot, sleek and silver. Without a word, he injected it into Izuku’s shoulder.

The effect was immediate. Izuku gasped as energy surged through his veins, his muscles tightening, his vision sharpening. He could feel the Chaos energy within him responding, flickering like a flame reignited.

“Thanks,” he muttered, trying to stand again.

Metal Sonic rose with him, supporting his weight without hesitation.

Back at the base, Amy and Tails watched through the monitors, their hands frozen over the controls. The Rewrite Machine was humming, its core glowing with unstable energy.

“He’s buying us time,” Amy whispered.

Tails nodded. “We need to finish the calibration. If we don’t get the timing right, we could erase everything—including ourselves.”

Amy’s fingers flew across the interface. “Then let’s make sure we don’t.”

Outside, Eggman had recovered. He was no longer trembling. He was laughing.

“You think this changes anything?” he bellowed. “You think a broken robot and a half-dead rabbit can stop me? I am the future! I am evolution! I am hunger incarnate!”

He reached into his coat and pulled out a device—small, jagged, pulsing with red energy.

Izuku’s eyes widened. “That’s—”

Eggman grinned. “The failsafe. If I go down, Mobius goes with me.”

Metal Sonic stepped forward. {You. Will. Not. Destroy. This. World.}

Eggman pressed the button.

The ground shook. The sky darkened. A pulse of red energy surged outward, distorting the air, warping the landscape. Trees twisted into grotesque shapes, the earth cracked, and the very fabric of reality began to ripple.

Izuku felt it immediately. His Chaos energy flared, reacting violently to the distortion. He screamed, clutching his chest as the Sol Emeralds within him pulsed erratically.

Metal Sonic didn’t hesitate. He launched himself at Eggman, intercepting the blast with his own body. The explosion was deafening, a wave of red and silver colliding mid-air.

Izuku was thrown back, landing hard against a pile of scrap. He groaned, trying to move, but his body refused.

Through the smoke, he saw Metal Sonic—damaged, sparking, but still standing.

Eggman was gone.

The failsafe device lay shattered on the ground, its energy dissipating into the wind.

Metal Sonic turned to Izuku, his frame flickering with static.

{Mobius. Will. Not. Burn.}

Izuku stared at him, tears welling in his eyes. “You… you saved us.”

Metal Sonic tilted his head. {Debt. Repaid.}

Back at the base, the Rewrite Machine surged to life. Amy and Tails braced themselves as the energy enveloped the room, rewriting the fabric of reality one thread at a time.

Outside, Izuku collapsed, his body finally giving in.

Metal Sonic stood over him, silent, unmoving, as the world began to shift.

A blinding white light surged across Mobius.

It did not explode. It did not roar. It simply expanded—quiet, absolute, and all-encompassing. From the core of the Universal Rewrite Machine, the light unfurled like a tidal wave of purity, washing over the broken cities, the scorched forests, the shattered remnants of Eggman’s reign. It swept through Scrap Brain Zone, through the twisted metal and blood-soaked soil, and it reached the sky itself, bleaching the clouds into silence.

Starved Eggman let out one final scream—a sound that was less rage and more confusion, as if his very identity were being peeled away. His voice fractured mid-howl, warping into static, then silence. His body convulsed, his red eyes flickered, and then… he was still.

The hunger was gone.

The madness, the obsession, the grotesque desire to consume Mobian life—it unraveled, thread by thread, until only the original mind remained. A man of ego, yes. Of ambition. But no longer a monster.

And then time itself warped.

Izuku felt it first. A ripple in his chest, like his heart had been caught in a vice and twisted. The world around him bent inward, colors bleeding into one another, sound stretching like elastic. Metal Sonic, standing beside him, flickered—his form distorting, then stabilizing, then vanishing in a blink of blue light.

Izuku gasped.

He was falling.

Not through space, but through memory. Through consequence. Through every moment that had led him here.

And then—

Stillness.

The scent of pine. The soft rustle of leaves. The distant chirp of birds.

Izuku opened his eyes.

He was lying on his back in a clearing surrounded by towering trees, their branches swaying gently in the breeze. Sunlight filtered through the canopy, casting dappled patterns across the mossy ground. A stream babbled nearby, its water clear and cold.

Central Forest.

The place where his journey in this rewritten Mobius had begun.

Izuku sat up slowly, his body aching but whole. His fur was clean, his clothes intact, and the Sol Emeralds—he could feel them, dormant but present, nestled within his chest like quiet embers.

He blinked, disoriented. Had it worked? Had the rewrite truly reset everything?

A soft giggle reached his ears.

Izuku turned.

Across the clearing, walking hand-in-hand, were two familiar figures: Vanilla the rabbit, elegant and gentle, and her daughter Cream, bouncing with youthful energy. Floating beside them were Cheese and Chocola, their Chao companions, trailing sparkles of joy in their wake.

Izuku’s breath caught.

They were alive.

Not just alive—untouched. Unscarred. As if the horrors of the past timeline had never reached them.

He stood, his legs trembling, and took a step forward. “Vanilla… Cream…”

But before he could call out again, a terrible pain lanced through his chest.

Izuku cried out, clutching his torso as the Sol Emeralds flared violently within him. His knees buckled, and he collapsed to the ground, gasping. The light around him dimmed, the forest blurring at the edges.

Vanilla turned sharply, her eyes wide with concern. Cream froze, her ears twitching.

“Mom! Someone’s hurt!” Cream shouted, already running toward Izuku.

Vanilla followed, her expression shifting from surprise to alarm. Cheese and Chocola zipped ahead, their tiny forms glowing with worry.

Izuku tried to speak, but the pain was overwhelming. It wasn’t just physical—it was emotional, spiritual. The cost of rewriting a world. The burden of memory in a place that no longer remembered.

Cream knelt beside him, her small hands hovering uncertainly. “Mister? Are you okay?”

Izuku looked up at her, tears streaming down his cheeks. “I… I remember everything…”

Vanilla crouched beside him, placing a gentle hand on his shoulder. “You’re safe now. Whatever happened… it’s over.”

Izuku shook his head. “No. It’s not. I changed everything. I rewrote the world. But I still remember what it was before. The pain. The loss. The fire…”

Vanilla’s eyes softened. “Then you carry the truth. That’s a heavy gift.”

Cream looked confused. “Mom, what does he mean?”

Vanilla smiled gently. “It means he’s a hero, sweetheart. One who gave up everything to make sure we could live in peace.”

Izuku sobbed, the weight of it all crashing down. “I didn’t want to forget. I didn’t want anyone else to suffer. But I don’t know if I did the right thing…”

Vanilla pulled him into a soft embrace, her warmth grounding him. “You did what you had to. And now you’re here. That means something.”

Cheese floated beside Izuku’s head, chirping softly. Chocola mirrored the gesture, their presence soothing.

Cream sat beside him, her eyes wide. “You’re really strong, mister. Even if you’re small.”

Izuku laughed through his tears. “Thanks…”

The forest around them remained quiet, peaceful. But Izuku knew this was only the beginning. The world had been rewritten—but the echoes of what came before still lingered in him. And maybe, just maybe, that was enough to protect it from ever falling again.

Vanilla’s arms were strong despite her gentle demeanor. She helped Izuku to his feet, supporting his weight as he leaned heavily against her side. Cream clung to his other arm, her small hands surprisingly steady for someone so young.

“Come on, mister,” she said softly. “We’ll get you somewhere safe.”

Izuku nodded, unable to speak through the pain. The Sol Emeralds inside him pulsed erratically, like a second heartbeat out of sync with his own. Every step sent a ripple of discomfort through his chest, but he forced himself to move. He had to. He couldn’t collapse again—not here, not now.

Vanilla led them through the forest, following a winding path that Izuku hadn’t noticed before. It was subtle, almost hidden, but clearly well-traveled. The trees thinned gradually, giving way to a small clearing where a modest building stood nestled among the greenery. It was constructed from reinforced wood and metal, its design blending with the natural surroundings. A flag bearing the symbol of the Freedom Fighters fluttered gently above the entrance.

Izuku blinked. He hadn’t seen this place before—not in the previous timeline, nor in the rewritten one. But it felt… right. Like it belonged.

Vanilla pushed open the door and guided him inside. The interior was clean, warm, and filled with soft light. A few Mobians moved about—some in medical uniforms, others in casual gear. They looked up as the trio entered, their expressions shifting from curiosity to concern.

“Vanilla?” one of the nurses asked, a squirrel with a clipboard and a pair of round glasses. “Who’s this?”

“He collapsed in the forest,” Vanilla said calmly. “Severe chest pain. We don’t know the cause.”

The nurse nodded and gestured toward a nearby room. “Bring him in. We’ll run a scan.”

Izuku was laid gently onto a padded table. Cream stood nearby, wringing her hands as Cheese and Chocola hovered protectively around her. Vanilla stayed close, her eyes never leaving Izuku’s face.

The nurse activated a scanning device, its soft hum filling the room. A holographic display appeared above Izuku’s chest, revealing his internal structure—bones, organs, and something else. Something glowing.

The nurse frowned. “That’s… not normal.”

Vanilla stepped closer. “What do you see?”

“There’s a cluster of energy signatures in his chest. They’re not biological. They’re… crystalline. But they’re moving. Reacting to his heartbeat.”

Izuku groaned. “Sol Emeralds…”

The nurse blinked. “Excuse me?”

Izuku forced himself to speak. “They’re… inside me. I used them. To fight. To rewrite…”

His voice trailed off, the pain flaring again. The nurse looked to Vanilla, confused. “Do you know what he’s talking about?”

Vanilla shook her head. “No. But I believe him.”

Cream stepped forward. “He saved us, didn’t he?”

Izuku looked at her, eyes glassy. “I tried…”

The nurse turned back to the scan. “Whatever these things are, they’re not stable. They’re reacting to something—maybe the environment, maybe his own energy. But they’re not meant to be inside a living body.”

Vanilla’s expression darkened. “Can you remove them?”

The nurse hesitated. “I don’t know. If we try, we could destabilize his entire system. But if we leave them…”

Izuku coughed. “I’ll be fine. Just… need time.”

Vanilla placed a hand on his forehead. “You’re not alone anymore. We’ll figure this out.”

Cream smiled, her eyes bright. “You’re one of us now.”

Izuku closed his eyes, letting their voices wash over him. The pain was still there, but it felt… lighter. Not gone, but bearable. He was in a world that didn’t remember the horrors he’d endured—but it was a world worth protecting.

And maybe, just maybe, he’d find peace here.

The hospital hallway was quiet.

Izuku lay in the recovery room, his breathing shallow but steady. Vanilla sat beside him, her hand resting gently on his arm, while Cream had curled up in a chair nearby, Cheese and Chocola floating protectively above her. The scan still hovered in the air—those crystalline signatures pulsing faintly in Izuku’s chest, like stars caught in orbit.

Outside the room, the nurse reviewed the data again, brow furrowed. “They’re stable now,” she murmured. “But they’re not fading. Whatever they are… they’ve become part of him.”

Footsteps echoed down the hallway.

Soft. Precise. Regal.

Vanilla looked up first, her ears twitching. Cream stirred, blinking sleepily. The nurse turned, startled by the sudden presence.

A figure stood at the end of the corridor, silhouetted by the afternoon light streaming through the windows. Her fur was lavender, her eyes golden and sharp. A long cape fluttered behind her, and her posture was unmistakably royal.

Blaze the Cat.

She stepped forward slowly, her gaze scanning the room with quiet urgency. Her voice, when she spoke, was calm but edged with tension.

“I sensed them,” she said. “The Sol Emeralds. They vanished from my dimension a week ago. I followed their trail here.”

Vanilla rose, cautious but composed. “You’re… Blaze, aren’t you?”

Blaze nodded. “I came to retrieve what was lost. Before someone dangerous could claim them.”

Her eyes drifted past Vanilla, past the nurse, and settled on the open doorway behind them—on Izuku.

She froze.

The emerald signatures pulsing in his chest were unmistakable. Not physical stones, but energy—raw, fused, and alive. Her expression shifted from concern to astonishment.

“He’s… merged with them,” she whispered. “Not in body. In power.”

She stepped closer, her gaze never leaving Izuku’s sleeping form. “How is he still alive?”

Vanilla didn’t answer. She didn’t know.

Blaze stood at the threshold, her voice barely audible. “He shouldn’t be able to hold them. Not like this. But he has. And they’ve accepted him.”

She closed her eyes, the hallway falling into silence.

“I need to speak with him,” she said softly. “When he wakes.”

Vanilla nodded. “He’ll want to speak with you too.”

Blaze turned her head slightly, her golden eyes reflecting the soft light. “Then I’ll wait.”

And with that, she stepped back into the hallway, her presence like a flame held in check—burning quietly, waiting for the moment to ignite.

Izuku stirred in his sleep, the emerald light in his chest flickering once.

The chapter closed not with battle, but with breath. With the promise of answers. And with the arrival of someone who understood the weight of power—and the cost of carrying it alone.

Chapter Text

Recovery Room, Freedom Fighters Outpost Hospital

The room was quiet, save for the soft hum of the monitor tracking Izuku’s vitals. A pale blue light pulsed gently from the screen, casting long shadows across the walls. Outside, the wind stirred the trees, their rustling a distant whisper. Inside, the air was still.

Izuku lay propped against a stack of pillows, his breathing shallow but steady. The pain had dulled to a throb—constant, but manageable. The Sol Emeralds within him had quieted, their chaotic pulses now rhythmic, like a second heartbeat. He could feel them, nestled deep in his chest, not dormant, but waiting.

Vanilla sat beside him, her posture composed, hands folded in her lap. Cream had curled up in the chair near the window, her ears twitching as she watched the birds flit through the branches. Cheese and Chocola hovered nearby, their glow subdued.

Blaze stood at the foot of the bed, arms crossed, her golden eyes fixed on Izuku. She hadn’t spoken since entering the room. She didn’t need to. Her presence was enough—a flame held in check, regal and watchful.

Izuku blinked slowly, then cleared his throat. “You’re Blaze,” he said, voice hoarse.

She nodded once. “And you’re the one who carries the Sol Emeralds.”

Izuku looked down at his chest, then back up. “Not by choice.”

Vanilla leaned forward slightly. “He’s been through a lot. We’re still trying to understand what happened.”

Blaze’s gaze didn’t waver. “Then let him speak.”

Izuku shifted, wincing as the movement sent a ripple of discomfort through his torso. He waited for the pain to settle, then began.

“It wasn’t supposed to be like this,” he said. “Mobius… it was burning. Eggman had become something else. Something twisted. He called himself Starved. He wasn’t just hungry—he was devouring everything. Cities. Forests. People.”

Cream’s eyes widened. “But… we were okay.”

Izuku nodded slowly. “Because I rewrote it.”

Blaze’s eyes narrowed. “Explain.”

Izuku took a breath. “Amy and Tails built something. The Universal Rewrite Machine. It could reset reality—thread by thread. But it needed a catalyst. Something powerful enough to anchor the rewrite. That’s where the Sol Emeralds came in.”

Vanilla’s brow furrowed. “But the Emeralds belong to Blaze’s dimension, don’t they?”

“They do,” Blaze said quietly. “They’re sacred. They choose their bearer.”

Izuku met her gaze. “They chose me. Or maybe… they didn’t have a choice.”

He paused, gathering his thoughts. “Metal Sonic saved me. Eggman had me cornered—Furnace was about to finish me off. But Metal stepped in. He fought like I’ve never seen. Not with rage. With purpose. He said he owed a debt. To Amy.”

Blaze’s expression softened, just slightly. “He was built to serve. But he found something greater.”

Izuku nodded. “He intercepted the failsafe. Took the blast meant to destroy Mobius. And then… the Rewrite Machine activated.”

He looked at Cream. “You were gone. Vanilla too. Everyone I knew had been twisted or consumed. But when the light came… it reset everything. I woke up in the forest. You were alive. Untouched.”

Cream tilted her head. “But you remember?”

Izuku’s voice cracked. “All of it.”

Vanilla reached out, placing a hand on his arm. “That’s a heavy burden.”

“It is,” he whispered. “I see the world as it is now—peaceful, whole. But I also see what it was. What it could become again.”

Blaze stepped closer. “The Emeralds are stable. For now. But they weren’t meant to be fused with a living body. You’re carrying more than power. You’re carrying memory. Echoes.”

Izuku looked up at her. “Then you understand.”

Blaze nodded. “I do. But understanding doesn’t make it easier.”

Cream stood, her small hands clenched. “You saved us. That’s what matters.”

Izuku smiled faintly. “I didn’t want to forget. I didn’t want anyone else to suffer. But I don’t know if I did the right thing.”

Vanilla’s voice was gentle. “You did what you had to. And now you’re here. That means something.”

Blaze turned toward the window, her cape fluttering slightly. “The Sol Emeralds are watching. They don’t speak, but they feel. If they’ve accepted you, it’s because they see something in you.”

Izuku closed his eyes. “I just wanted to protect the ones I love.”

Cream walked to the bed and climbed up beside him, her presence warm and steady. “You did.”

The room fell into silence again, but it wasn’t empty. It was full—of memory, of promise, of the quiet strength that comes after the storm.

Blaze turned back, her voice low. “When you’re ready, we’ll talk more. About what comes next.”

Izuku nodded. “I’ll be ready.”

Vanilla smiled. “You’re one of us now.”

And for the first time since the rewrite, Izuku felt it—not just the pain, not just the weight. But belonging.

The light outside had shifted. Afternoon had begun its slow descent into dusk, and the shadows in the room stretched longer across the floor. The monitor beside Izuku’s bed continued its quiet rhythm, a soft pulse that mirrored the stillness in his chest.

Blaze hadn’t moved from the doorway. She stood like a statue carved from fire—composed, unreadable, but unmistakably present. Vanilla had returned to her seat, her hands now busy with a small cloth she folded and unfolded without thought. Cream had curled up again, her head resting against Izuku’s side, her breathing slow and steady.

Izuku stirred, his eyes fluttering open. The pain hadn’t gone, but it had settled into something familiar—like an old scar that throbbed when the weather changed. He blinked, adjusting to the dim light, then turned his gaze toward Blaze.

“You said they accepted me,” he murmured. “The Emeralds.”

Blaze nodded. “They did. But that doesn’t mean they’re finished with you.”

Izuku frowned. “What do you mean?”

Blaze stepped forward, her boots making no sound against the polished floor. “The Sol Emeralds are not passive. They’re not just power sources. They’re sentient, in their own way. They respond to balance, to intention. And they remember.”

Izuku’s breath caught. “They remember the world before.”

Blaze’s eyes met his. “Yes. And they remember you.”

Vanilla looked up. “Is that dangerous?”

Blaze hesitated. “It depends. If Izuku’s intentions remain pure, they’ll stabilize. But if his heart falters—if grief turns to anger, or fear to desperation—they could react.”

Izuku closed his eyes. “I don’t want to hurt anyone.”

Blaze’s voice softened. “Then you won’t. But you must understand—you’re not just a vessel. You’re a beacon. The Emeralds chose to anchor themselves in you because you were willing to carry the cost. That makes you powerful. But it also makes you visible.”

Cream stirred. “Visible to who?”

Blaze turned toward her, her expression unreadable. “To those who seek imbalance. To those who would undo what you’ve done.”

Izuku sat up slightly, wincing. “You mean Eggman?”

Blaze shook her head. “Not Eggman. Not anymore. The rewrite unraveled his madness. He’s no longer Starved. He’s… diminished.”

Vanilla leaned forward. “Then who?”

Blaze’s gaze drifted toward the window. “I don’t know. But I felt it the moment I arrived. A presence. Distant, but watching. Something that remembers the flame. Something that didn’t win—but hasn’t forgotten.”

Izuku’s heart thudded. “Then it’s not over.”

Blaze turned back to him. “No. But it’s changed. The battlefield is quieter now. The war is no longer for territory or bodies. It’s for memory. For truth.”

Vanilla stood, her voice calm but firm. “Then we protect him. Whatever comes.”

Blaze nodded. “You’ll need more than protection. You’ll need understanding.”

She stepped closer to Izuku, her eyes glowing faintly. “I want to show you something. When you’re strong enough.”

Izuku swallowed. “What is it?”

Blaze hesitated. “A place between worlds. Where the Emeralds speak. Where echoes gather.”

Cream sat up, her ears twitching. “Can we go too?”

Blaze smiled gently. “Not yet. It’s not a place for innocence.”

Izuku looked at Vanilla. “Will you be okay if I go?”

Vanilla’s smile was soft. “We’ll be here when you return.”

Izuku nodded, the weight in his chest shifting. Not lighter. But clearer.

Blaze turned toward the door. “Rest. When the moon rises, we’ll begin.”

And with that, she vanished into the hallway, her cape trailing like smoke.

Izuku lay back, the monitor’s pulse steady beside him. Cream curled up again, her warmth grounding him. Vanilla hummed softly, a lullaby without words.

Outside, the wind stirred the trees. The world was quiet.

Flashback – Green Hill Zone, Before the Rewrite

The scent hit him first.

Not the usual breeze of wildflowers and salt from the nearby coast. Not the sun-warmed grass or the citrus tang of ring energy humming through the air.

This was copper. Burnt fur. Something sour and final.

Izuku stepped slowly through the underbrush, his breath shallow, his ears twitching with every creak of the wind. Green Hill Zone was quiet—too quiet. No birds. No rustle of Chao. Just the distant hum of something broken.

He knew this place. Knew it like a childhood memory. The slope of the hills, the curve of the loop-de-loops, the way the sun always seemed to catch the waterfalls just right.

But now the grass was scorched. The rings were shattered. And the air felt… wrong.

He crested a ridge and froze.

There, in the clearing below, lay two figures.

His heart stopped.

Cream.

Vanilla.

They were crumpled together, as if they’d been running. As if Vanilla had tried to shield her daughter with her own body. Cream’s hand was still clutching her mother’s sleeve, her tiny fingers curled in desperation.

Izuku stumbled forward, knees buckling as he dropped beside them.

“No,” he whispered. “No, no, no…”

Their bodies were torn. Not slashed. Not burned. Chunks were missing—clean, unnatural voids where flesh should have been. As if something had taken bites. As if they’d been consumed mid-flight.

Cream’s eyes were open, glassy. Vanilla’s were half-lidded, her mouth frozen in a silent scream.

Izuku reached out, trembling, and touched Cream’s hand. It was cold. Too cold.

He sobbed, the sound raw and broken. “I was supposed to protect you…”

The wind shifted.

And then he felt it.

A presence.

He turned slowly, his breath catching in his throat.

At the edge of the clearing, half-shrouded in shadow, stood a figure.

Starved Eggman.

But this wasn’t the man he’d once known. This was something else. Something hollowed out and filled with hunger. His body was bloated, his limbs elongated, his coat torn and stained. His mouth hung open, drool trailing down his chin, and his eyes—

His eyes were black.

Not empty. Not blind.

Black like a void. Like the absence of light. And within them, twin emeralds glowed—green and sharp and wrong.

Izuku couldn’t move.

Starved tilted his head, slowly, like a predator sizing up a wounded animal. His gaze drifted from the bodies to Izuku, and then settled.

He smiled.

It wasn’t a grin. It wasn’t even human. It was a twitch of muscle, a flex of hunger.

Izuku felt it in his bones.

He was meat.

Starved took a step forward, the ground cracking beneath his feet.

Izuku scrambled back, his hands slipping in the blood-soaked grass. He couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. The world narrowed to that face, those eyes, that abyss.

Starved didn’t speak. He didn’t need to.

His presence said everything.

You’re next.

Izuku screamed.

And then—

Light.

White. Blinding. Absolute.

The Rewrite.

It surged through the clearing, washing over the bodies, the blood, the monster. Starved’s form flickered, twisted, and then shattered into static.

Izuku gasped, his body convulsing as the memory ripped itself away.

Flashback Over

He woke with a cry, his chest heaving, sweat soaking the sheets.

Vanilla was beside him in an instant, her hand on his shoulder. Cream stirred, blinking sleepily. Blaze stepped into the room, her eyes sharp.

Izuku’s voice was hoarse. “I saw them. I saw you. Dead.”

Vanilla didn’t flinch. “It was a dream.”

“No,” he rasped. “It was before. Before the rewrite.”

Blaze nodded slowly. “The Emeralds are stirring. They’re pulling echoes. You’re reliving what they remember.”

Izuku turned to Vanilla, tears streaming down his face. “I found you in Green Hill. You were running. Something… something took pieces of you.”

Vanilla’s eyes softened, but her voice remained steady. “That world is gone.”

Izuku shook his head. “Not for me.”

Blaze stepped closer. “Then we face it. Together.”

Izuku looked at her, at Cream, at Vanilla.

And for the first time, he didn’t feel alone in the nightmare.

Blaze's Point of View

The moon had risen.

Outside the recovery room, the forest was bathed in silver light. Leaves shimmered like glass, and the wind carried a hush that felt almost reverent. Inside, Izuku slept fitfully, his breath uneven, his body twitching with echoes of pain.

Blaze stood alone in the hallway, her arms folded, her eyes closed.

The Sol Emeralds pulsed faintly within Izuku’s chest, but their energy was not contained. It bled into the air—subtle, insistent, reaching.

And Blaze felt it.

A tug. Not physical. Not magical. Something deeper. A call from the Emeralds themselves.

She opened her eyes.

The hallway was gone.

She stood in a field of ash.

The sky above was black—not with night, but with smoke. The sun was a dull smear behind the clouds, casting no warmth. The ground beneath her boots crunched with brittle remains—grass turned to cinder, stone cracked and bleeding heat.

Green Hill Zone.

But not as she remembered it.

The loops were broken. The waterfalls had dried to sludge. The trees were skeletal, their branches clawing at the sky. And the air… the air reeked of fear.

Blaze stepped forward, her cape dragging through the soot. The Sol Emeralds hovered around her now—six points of light, flickering like dying stars. They didn’t speak. They didn’t need to.

They were showing her.

A memory. A truth.

A warning.

She crested a ridge and froze.

Below, in the hollow of a scorched clearing, lay two bodies.

Vanilla. Cream.

Their forms were twisted, collapsed mid-run. Vanilla’s arms were outstretched, her body shielding her daughter. Cream’s hand clutched her mother’s sleeve, her face frozen in terror.

Blaze’s breath caught.

She stepped closer, her boots sinking into the soft ash.

The damage was precise. Chunks missing. Not torn. Not burned. Removed. As if something had fed. As if they’d been prey.

Blaze knelt beside them, her hand trembling.

The Sol Emeralds pulsed.

And then the wind shifted.

She felt it before she saw it.

A presence.

She rose slowly, turning toward the edge of the clearing.

He stood there.

Tall. Red-skinned. His body stretched unnaturally, limbs too long, torso bloated with something that moved beneath the surface. His coat hung in tatters, stained with something dark. His mouth was slack, drool trailing from his chin.

And his eyes—

His eyes were black.

Not empty. Not blind.

Black like a void. Like hunger given shape.

And within them, twin emeralds glowed—green and sharp and wrong.

Blaze didn’t move.

Starved Eggman tilted his head, slowly, like a predator sizing up a flame.

His gaze drifted from the bodies to Blaze.

And then he smiled.

It wasn’t a grin. It wasn’t even human. It was a twitch of muscle, a flex of craving.

Blaze felt it in her bones.

He wanted her.

Not as an enemy.

As a meal.

She stepped back, her hand instinctively reaching for flame—but the Emeralds pulsed again, holding her in place.

This was a vision. A memory. She couldn’t fight it.

Starved took a step forward, the ground cracking beneath his feet.

Blaze’s breath hitched.

The Emeralds surged, their light flaring.

And then—

The world shattered.

Blaze gasped, her body jerking as she slammed back into reality.

She was standing in the hallway again, her hands clenched, her fur damp with sweat.

Vanilla was there, her eyes wide. Cream clung to her mother’s side, startled.

Izuku stirred in his bed, his voice a whisper. “You saw it.”

Blaze nodded slowly. “I did.”

Vanilla stepped forward. “What did they show you?”

Blaze’s voice was quiet. “The world before. The one he saved us from.”

She turned to Izuku, her gaze steady. “You weren’t just fighting Eggman. You were fighting hunger. Madness. A world that had forgotten mercy.”

Izuku’s eyes filled with tears. “I couldn’t save them. Not then.”

Blaze stepped closer. “But you did now. And the Emeralds… they remember. They want you to remember.”

Vanilla placed a hand on Izuku’s shoulder. “Then we carry it together.”

Cream nodded, her voice small. “No one should be alone in the dark.”

Blaze looked at them—this family, this survivor, this world reborn.

And she understood.

The flame hadn’t gone out.

It had been passed on.

The room was dim now, lit only by the soft glow of the monitor and the moonlight filtering through the window. Cream had fallen asleep again, curled against her mother’s side, her breathing slow and even. Vanilla stroked her daughter’s ears absently, her gaze fixed on Izuku.

Blaze sat across from him, her posture straight, her expression unreadable. But her eyes—her eyes were listening.

Izuku shifted, the blanket pulled tight around his shoulders. His body still ached, but the pain had become background noise. What lingered now was memory.

“I need to tell you about Metal Sonic,” he said quietly.

Blaze nodded once. “I’m listening.”

Izuku took a breath. “He wasn’t supposed to be there. Eggman had scrapped him months before—left him to rot in the lower vaults of his base. We thought he was gone. Just another casualty.”

Vanilla leaned forward. “But he wasn’t.”

Izuku shook his head. “Amy found him. She was scavenging for parts, trying to keep the Rewrite Machine stable. Tails was working on the interface, and I was… I was trying to hold off Furnace. We were the last ones left. Everyone else was gone. Consumed. Twisted. Or worse.”

Blaze’s eyes narrowed. “You three survived.”

“Barely,” Izuku said. “Amy pulled Metal Sonic out of the wreckage. He was broken. His systems were fried. But she didn’t give up. She rebuilt him. Rewired him. Not to obey—but to choose.”

Vanilla’s voice was soft. “And he chose to protect.”

Izuku nodded. “He came back when we needed him most. Eggman had us cornered. Furnace was about to finish me off. I was out there alone—scorched, bleeding, barely standing. Tails and Amy were inside the building, safe behind reinforced walls, watching everything unfold through the console’s feed. They couldn’t reach me. Couldn’t help. And then—”

He paused, his voice catching.

“Then I heard it. That voice. Cold. Final. Like a blade drawn in silence.”

He looked at Blaze. “{Doctor Robotnik. You. Must. Be. Stopped.}”

Blaze didn’t blink.

Izuku’s voice grew steadier. “He stepped into the clearing like he’d never been broken. Gleaming. Precise. Eggman froze. Furnace recalibrated. And then Metal Sonic moved.”

He closed his eyes, remembering. “He didn’t fight with rage. He fought with clarity. Every strike was calculated. Every dodge was like wind. He redirected Furnace’s flames with kinetic bursts, used the terrain like it was part of him. And when Eggman screamed at him—called him a broken toy—Metal Sonic just said…”

Izuku opened his eyes. “{Perfection. Is. Not. Obedience.} {Perfection. Is. Purpose.}”

Blaze’s lips parted slightly. “He found his own code.”

Izuku nodded. “He wasn’t just a weapon anymore. He was a protector. He saved me. He saved Amy. He gave Tails the time he needed to finish the calibration.”

Vanilla’s voice was quiet. “And then?”

Izuku looked down. “Eggman triggered the failsafe. A device that would’ve taken Mobius with him. Metal Sonic intercepted it. Took the blast. His body absorbed the shockwave. And then… he was gone.”

Blaze stood slowly, her cape brushing the floor. “He chose to burn so the world wouldn’t.”

Izuku’s voice trembled. “He was the last line. The final guardian. And he didn’t hesitate.”

Blaze stepped closer, her gaze steady. “Then he was more than a machine. He was a flame. One that refused to go out.”

Izuku nodded, tears slipping down his cheeks. “He was the reason we had time to rewrite. The reason you’re all here.”

Vanilla placed a hand on his arm. “Then we honor him. Not with grief. With memory.”

Blaze turned toward the window, her voice low. “The Sol Emeralds remember him. I felt it. A flicker. A spark. He’s not gone. Not entirely.”

Izuku looked up. “You think he’s still out there?”

Blaze didn’t answer right away. “I think purpose leaves a mark. And sometimes, marks become echoes.”

The room fell into silence again, but it wasn’t empty.

It was reverent.

Izuku leaned back, his breath steadying. “He wasn’t perfect. But he was enough.”

Blaze nodded. “And that’s all a world needs.”
