Lucifer Quirk 78 – Hebrews 10:24-25

Hebrews 10:24-25

And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Both him and Himiko swept down picking up their classmates so they could fly them to the shore.

Itsuka looked the most excited out of all of them. "That was amazing, you were all just like real heroes," she said.

Izuku blushed and rubbed his neck. "T-thanks," he managed to stutter out shyly.

'Does he have to blush after I rescue him?' James thought with an internal sigh.

In complete contrast to his thoughts James smiled confidently. The two boys he was carrying didn't seem to weight him down at all. "Thanks, it wasn't just me and Himiko though. Tsuyu took more of them out than me all by herself. She was just a lot more stealthy," he praised.

Tsuyu didn't seem too affected. "I couldn't have done it without James-chan's distraction. You're both amazing," she said matter of factly. When looking close enough he could see a tug on the corner of her lips though giving away what she was feeling deep down.

Yuga who had been suspiciously quiet smiled. "That was very stylish! We should discuss heroic entries some time when we get out of here," he said.

James rolled his eyes. "Maybe..." he said non-committally.

They quickly flew over to the lake shore. Although he was able to fly quite easily carrying two people he wasn't sure how it was for Himiko who could only exhibit a percentage of his full power while transformed. He wasn't in the mood to try carrying five people to the shore all by himself if she exhausted herself or the amount of transformation time she had left.

Mina was already there waiting for them and waved excitedly when they got closer.

She wore an excited smile. "That was amazing! Is everyone ok?" She yelled as soon as they got close enough.

James unceremoniously dropped the two boys on their asses.

Izuku grabbed his ass and grimaced. "Ouch!" He yelped.

"Hey!" Yuga yelled.

James glared at Yuga. "What?" He asked.

Yuga quickly shrunk his neck. "N-nothing... I-I just wanted to say thank you," he said quickly.

James smirked at Mina. "They're doing fine. If I said I was injured would you kiss it better though?" He answered.

Her pink cheeks quickly flushed red. "M-maybe..." she stammered.

Though not much kinder than him at least Himiko didn't rudely drop the girls on their asses simply dropping them to their feet instead.

Himiko didn't hesitate to hop over to hug James and steal his attention from Mina.

Mina shot her an annoyed glare which she completely ignored.

He sighed. "At least transform back before doing that. Not only are you wasting my blood I would also prefer not to be hugged so intimately by a man's body even if it is my own handsome self," he said ending with a smirk.

She stuck her tongue out and giggled. "Oops, I completely forgot," she said. She did listen though and released her transformation.

James hand stealthily slid down her side grabbing a handful of her ass. She bit her lips seductively.

He looked over and smiled at Tsuyu who seemed a little unsure what to do herself. "Good job there Tsu-chan," he said.

She nodded. "You too. Ribbit," she said.

"Alright, now that we've saved you what are you planning to do? We're going to see if there is anyone else we can save before going to the main square and entrance to see if we can help Eraserhead and Thirteen. You can either join us or hide. Although I guess if you're feeling really daring you could rush to Eraserhead and Thirteen first," he said.

Izuku, Itsuka, and Yuga looked at one another. Then they looked at Himiko and Tsuyu who seemed to have complete confidence in sticking with James.

Itsuka raised her hand. "I choose to stick with you three," she said excitedly.

"I-I... me too," Izuku said nervously.

"Rejoice. I will stay with you too," Yuga said.

'Still trying to act proud when I can see the sweat pouring off your forehead,' James thought.

He smiled. "Happy to have you all. Make sure to listen though. Working together seamlessly right now is of utmost important," he said.

All of them nodded seriously in agreement.

"Good, stick with me," James said.

He ran to the Fire zone that was adjacent to the Shipwreck Zone they were in. When they got there though they noticed a wound up Katsuki blasting through villains left and right in the distance.

"Come!"

"Die!"

"I'll explode your ass!"

"Burn for me!"

"I'm going to shove this fist down your throat!"

"DIE! DIE! DIE!"

"Explode!"

'Someone is being a little edgy boy,' James thought.

He shook his head and looked at the others. "How about we leave him to his own devices," he said.

Tsuyu nodded. "I'm sure there are others that could use our help more," she said.

Himiko smiled widely. "Awww... but he looks like he's having fun," she said.

The others all nodded.

Only Izuku looked nervous about leaving Bakugo alone.

'Did I just see longing in his gaze?' James thought. 

He shook his head. ' Not my business nor problem,' he thought.

They ran from the Fire zone's dome to the Mountain zone.

They ran into a few groups of villains on their way up the fake mountain, but those were quickly dispatched before they could even put up a fight.

Near the peak of the mountain they finally found Kyoka and Denki back to back, surrounded by villains and fighting for their lives. This wasn't a situation either of their quirks excelled at. Neither of them excelled at group combat working better in smaller engagements or while scouting.

"We have to save them!" Izuku yelled.

Unfortunately his yell immediately got the attention of all the nearby villains ruining any chance at a surprise attack.

James shook his head with disappointment.

As soon as Kyoka and Denki noticed them they immediately looked relieved though.

"Where did these brats come from? Someone must be slacking," one of the villains said.

Another villain licked his lips excitedly. "Does it matter? Just a few more to play with," he said.

"The pretty boy is mine," a third said.

James sighed. 'Thankfully it's at least one of the few female villains we've come across,' he thought.

Lucifer Quirk 77 – Exodus 14:22

Exodus 14:22

And the people of Israel went into the midst of the sea on dry ground, the waters being a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

"You really must be kids, with all the chirping and screaming," a villain that looked like a shark said.

"Hey, Shigaraki said just don't let down your guard, remember? Don't judge them by their ages. Look at their Quirks. It's common sense, isn't it? Because our Quirks will definitely have an advantage in the water," one of his fellow villains warned him.

Izuku looked up hearing the commotion and noticed James and Himiko. "Hey there's two James-sans," he shouted excitedly.

Itsuka waved up at them excitedly. "Yahoo," she shouted.

Yuga pulled her back down hiding in one of the remaining pieces of the shipwreck. "Are you crazy? Do you want to be killed?" he asked her nervously.

They had been panicking now that the ship was sinking, but it seemed back up had shown up in the nick of time providing great relief.

Izuku smiled. "It must be James and Himiko, with their help we actually stand a chance," he said.

Meanwhile Tsuyu had already managed to eliminate the first villain she dragged under the surface and moved on to drag down a second before the villains even realised someone was attacking from below due to James and Himiko managing to capture all their attention. Unlike before now that she was in water Tsuyu was really able to show off her abilities at their best. It was pretty much the home field advantage for her as she shot through the water like a fish.

James looked down at the trio hiding amongst the ship wreckage and gave a somewhat lazy excuse for a salute with a light smirk. "Yo Itsuka. Seems like you're in a little trouble," he said.

Itsuka smiled. "Yeah not great, I'm sure you can help though," she said.

He smirked. "Your wish is my desire," he said.

Himiko who still looked like James rolled her eyes. "Are you two going to keep flirting or do something?" she asked.

Itsuka blushed lightly.

Meanwhile James just shrugged nonchalantly though.

He stopped flapping his wings and flipped backwards causing himself to fall face first towards the water surface. There was a villain treading water right where he would land though and a fraction of a second before he collided he swung his leg around flipping himself and kicking the villain in their face kicking off again before he entered the water himself leaving the villain unconscious.

Himiko blushed heavily when she saw the blood erupt from the villains face from James' kick. This just disgusted James though as she was forced to watch his own face gaze and blush like a teenaged school girl.

The other villains gulped. "Get him!" one of them yelled finally waking them up from their stupor.

They didn't even notice how Tsuyu took care of the villain he had knocked unconscious and moved on to another target.

They all started bunching together towards where James was considering him the greatest danger, not realising that Tsuyu had taken out far more of them already than he had.

Izuku was watching them with a glint in his eye. He stepped on the railing of the boat glaring down at the villains.

Itsuka looked at him with concern. "Be careful Midoriya?!" she shouted.

"Die...!" Izuku yelled while jumping off boat towards the bunched up villains.

"Back away Himiko," James warned.

Despite being caught up in the heat of the moment hearing his voice snapped her out of it enough for her to listen. Flying away from the group of villains.

"He's a kid after all," one of the villains said.

"He's delivering himself to us," another chimed in.

Izuku stretched out his arm towards the villains holding one of his fingers as if he was going to flick it.

"After he hits the water..." one of the villains said excitedly.

"I know!" another villains agreed.

James could only shake his head at the stupid villains that were excited about what was to come. He worried about Tsuyu though who was still underwater below the villains though. He would have to keep a close eye on her in case he needed to save her.

Right before Izuku hit the water's surface he flicked his finger with the power of One For All. "Delaware Smash!" he cried out.

None of the villains were expecting the explosion sending the water and them flying all over the place though.

Izuku was holding his hand grimacing in pain from the two broken fingers.

The water that had been pushed out started gathering back together dragging all the swimming villains in towards the centre of the impact along with it.

"Hey!" one villain shouted.

"I'm getting dragged in..." another shouted.

"If a strong force is applied to the surface of the water, it'll spread... ...and then converge back in the middle!: Izuku said.

"Move!" one of the villains panicked.

"Get away!" another shouted.

"You too!" the first shouted back.

"You're in my way!" another shouted trying to escape the whirlpool.

Himiko seemed to sigh in relief realising she could have been caught up in that if he hadn't warned her.

Both Itsuka and Yuga looked on in surprise.

James took the chance while most villains were knocked unconscious and the few that remained conscious were still struggling against the whirlpool to eliminate them one after the other with minimal resistance.

Tsuyu surfaced not much later still in once piece, but definitely worse for wear. It seemed the shockwave had still had some effect on her despite being further below the surface of the lake.

Still flying James looked over the situation, deciding what to do. "Himiko, you carry Tsuyu and Itsuka," he told her.

Although he would much prefer to carry the two girls himself he didn't want the two boys to be in contact with any of his girls. Not even Himiko while she was transformed in his image. He didn't like others playing with his toys after all. So that only left the option of him carrying the two boys to safety.

Lucifer Quirk 76 – Exodus 14:21

Exodus 14:21

Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD drove the sea back by a strong east wind all night and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

Now that they had taken care of all the villains where they landed James rushed towards the shipwreck zone. If he knew where everyone was he might have gone to save one of the other girls in class. However the Fire and Squall zones were covered so even when using his improved eyesight while flying above he didn't know where everyone was. So he decided to make sure Izuku survives first. The others would just need to do their best to last longer.

He would be leaving the main plaza and the entrance for last as the Pro Heroes Shota and Anan were there to hold the line for the moment. He also wasn't too worried about them needing to last too long since it had already been quite a while for Toru to get help. His action of getting Toru to get help much sooner should be enough to get backup for them much sooner than it had originally shown up.

He looked over the girls who were still gasping trying to recover. "Come, follow me to the shipwreck zone. I'm sure our classmates will be in need of help," he said.

Himiko shrugged casually.

"Sounds good," Tsuyu said.

Mina pumped her fist. "Let's go!" she said excitedly.

Momo nodded thoughtfully. "Yes, we need to move fast," she said.

James smiled. "Indeed," he said.

They started running towards the shipwreck zone under James' lead.

-At The Entrance-

"Shouji! Is everyone here? Can you check?" Tenya yelled.

Mezo closed his main eyes and turned his extra appendages to eyes and ears to scout.

After a few moments of focus he opened up his eyes again. "Everyone's scattered, but they're all in this building." he reported.

"Damn it, physical attacks can't hit him, and he can warp things... His Quirk's the worst!" one of them yelled.

"Ida-kun!" Anan shouted.

"Yes?" Tenya responded.

"I entrust this duty to you. Run to the school and tell them about what is happening here. The alarms are not sounding, and our phones don't have signal. The alarm system is based on infrared rays. Even though Eraser Head is erasing people's Quirks left and right, they are still not working... ...which means they must have someone with an interference Quirk... ...who hid right when they arrived. It would be faster for you to run than for us to find that person," Anan ordered.

"But it would be a disgrace to leave everyone behind—" Tenya started saying.

"Go, Ida-san! If you can get outside, there are alarms. That's why these guys are only doing this inside, right?" Rikido said.

"Use your Quirk in order to save others!" Anan shouted.

"I can totally support you like I did in the cafeteria! I will! Please, Ida-san!" Ochaco yelled.

Ida got into running pose his thrusters extending fro, his legs and back.

"Even if you have no other choice, are there really idiots who talk about their plans in front of the enemy?!" Kurogiri questioned.

Kurogiri launched shadow tentacles at them.

Anan pointed at Kurogiri and the index finger of her spacesuit opened up. "We did it because it doesn't matter if we're found out! Black Hole!" she shouted. 

Kurogiri's shadow fog started being sucked up into Anan's finger.

-Shipwreck Zone-

"A-are you sure? Maybe we can surrender. They said they were after All Might after all. Maybe we can delay things until backup from U.A. arrives," Yuga said nervously.

Izuku shook his head. "We can't rely on that and a hero doesn't surrender," he said stubbornly.

Itsuka nodded. "Yeah, we need to work together. If we can join the other students we will stand a better chance," she said.

Izuku peeked over the edge of the boat at the villains surrounding the boat in the water. "Those guys down there... ...are clearly assuming we'll fight in the water, right?" he said.

The other two nodded.

"Unlike us most of them seem to have quirks that work best in the water. They were definitely prepared," he said.

"Doesn't that mean they knew about the U.S.J. beforehand?" Itsuka wondered.

Yuga looked nervous, but neither of the other two were paying too much attention to him.

One of the villains that were surrounding the boat Izuku, Yuga, and Itsuka were on summoned a giant hand made out of water. Moments after it formed it slashed down at the boat slashing trough the hull which caused it to sink.

James, Himiko, Momo, Mina and Tsuyu arrived at the lakeshore right in time to see it.

"Himiko, we will fly and Tsuyu can swim. Mina stick with Momo and the two of you keep an eye on any of the villains trying to escape. Prioritise your own safety though," he said with a soft smile causing the girls to blush. His wings spread out of his back.

Himiko consumed her storage of blood which started her transformation into him allowing her access to his wings. She seemed to be hugging herself with a disturbed smile which was a little creepy. James decided to just ignore it.

"On it, ribbit!" Tsuyu said.

Momo almost seemed to be pouting. "I wanted to fight together with James though," she said.

Mina patted her on the shoulder. "We'll cover their backs. Don't you want him to trust his back to you," she said reassuringly.

This returned Momo's smile.

The ship was starting to sink rather rapidly and there wasn't much time left for those on board before they would be forced into the water with the villains.

Tsuyu jumped into the lake taking like a fish to water... or a frog.

James and Himiko both took off. Himiko looked excited to be able to fly alongside him.

The lake wasn’t very large so it took only a few moments before the first villains noticed their approach turning to look up at them.

“What are the other teams doing?” One of the villains grumbled.

While they were distracted by James and Himiko flying over then though they didn’t notice one of their Allie’s getting pulled under the water surface by Tsuyu using her tongue to drag them under.

Lucifer Quirk 75 – Isaiah 49:25

Isaiah 49:25

For thus says the LORD: “Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken, and the prey of the tyrant be rescued, for I will contend with those who contend with you, and I will save your children.

-Landslide Zone-

James was holding on to the girls tightly as they descended slowly using his wings. "It's ok. I've got you," he reassured them.

Watching the villains he didn't see any issue. The only actually powerful villains were left at the main plaza intended for Shota and All Might. That meant all the ones left for the students were just extras that didn't stand a chance against him. No one among the students had even died from them in the original timeline despite being ambushed after all.

He needed to move fast though. His presence and grabbing the girls had changed things since Tsuyu and her expertise in water environments had been there to help Izuku escape the villains in the shipwreck zone originally and now she was with him. He had noticed the world had a tendency to try to make things go closer to the canon timeline, but he didn't want to risk the useful little puppet that was Izuku to die when he was meant to be the publicly known number one hero in his plans for the future and hold the aggro of all the big villains for him.

Mina blushed holding on to him tightly. "T-thanks..." she mumbled shyly.

Himiko and Momo instead took the chance to take advantage of his pressing as much of them up against him with the excuse of being afraid of falling. He wasn't buying it though. Himiko with her quirk could get his wings and fly herself and Momo could easily build a bunch of things that could help her survive the fall with zero risk.

Tsuyu was on his back her arms wrapped around his neck. Her ears were a little pink. "R-ribbit," she said quietly.

James smiled. "Ok ladies. Time to focus. There are a lot of villains down there and our classmates need out help," he said confidently.

Himiko had a wide grin on her face. "Let's have fun!" she said excitedly.

The girls seemed almost reluctant to let go when they finally landed.

James folded his wings away and took out the batons he brought immediately. They were already surrounded by over ten villains climbing up towards them from all sides.

Before the girls were even able to adjust he was already moving as he dashed to the closest villain. They froze in surprise. This wasn't how it was supposed to go after all.

Before they could even respond James struck them in the abdomen with one of the batons folding them in half. Now that their head lowered James used the opportunity to swing the other against the side of their head sending them flying and unconscious.

Himiko dashed in the opposite direction still wearing the same bloodthirsty grin as she rushed her first victim. Her technique was nowhere near as practiced as James', but when you could easily physically overpower the other party skill only counted for so much.

Before the first had even hit the ground he was already on the second who tried to swing a flaming fist towards him. Before it could reach him though James ducked and swung the baton at his kneecap dodging the punch and sending him to his knees in pain before kneeing him in the face sending him sprawling.

It took a few moments, but the other girls finally got their heads in the game.

Momo started creating tools that could be used to capture the villains.

Mina was using her acid both to defeat some of the villains and also as a form of crowd control making sure none of them ganged up on one of them at the same time.

Even though she wasn't in the shipwreck zone this time. Tsuyu was performing quite well as the large amount of trees and big debris in the landslide zone were useful for her to be able to hop around at high speeds and dispatch the villains.

When the villains noticed James was by far the strongest amongst them they started to focus on him alleviating some of the pressure on the girls, but it was already too late at that point. Almost half of them had been taken out before they could even regroup.

James was surrounded by four villains by himself while the girls were dealing with the other four villains.

He felt the ground shift quickly jumping up and dodging as it tried to grab on to his feet he landed on one of the others sending him to the ground. One of the others slashed at him with a sword, but was easily blocked by one of the batons hitting it to the side and the other stabbed towards his forehead knocking him out.

The one left under his feet tried to push himself off the ground. Nothing a quick stomp on the head couldn't fix though.

He could see the one manipulating the earth trying something again and quickly threw one of the batons at him which hit him in the throat sending him tumbling while grasping at his throat gasping for air.

The last of the four still conscious seemed frozen as James walked over and picked up the baton he had thrown and hit the one still struggling for air on the temple knocking him out. He wasn't concerned about all the head trauma he was inflicting even if it left lasting damage him using a "non-lethal" weapon was already enough to show he was being a good boy and any grievous injuries were just "accidents".

Slowly walking towards the last one they finally broke out of their stupor and stumbled back falling onto their back as they tried to flee. "N-no... stay away!" he yelled in panic.

James didn't care though and stepped on his leg breaking it effortlessly and holding him in place so he could finish him off. They tried to guard their head with their arms, but with his superhuman strength those simply broke from his next strike leaving him wide open for his final strike.
