Chapter 19 - Confessions

A month has passed since the bounty was set on Izuku but only three of the five had tried to claim it. Those three being Himiko Toga, Slade Wilson and Floyd Lawton. Toga was arrested after Batman intervened during an assault, Slade and Floyd were both arrested on Eri's first night as Batgirl. Slade was first arrested when he tried to claim the bounty and Floyd was caught only a few minutes after trying to interfere by firing a sniper into a chain holding a container. The police picked him up not too long after and sent him to Tartarus with the others. However, Izuku had a bad feeling since neither Bane nor Firefly had tried to claim the bounty on his head but it was finished with now.




Izuku and Kyoka decided to celebrate by finally going out on their date. They went out to a cinema to watch a movie. They had decided to watch Star Wars Revenge of the Sith and they never stopped holding each other's hand through the whole thing. Most people laughed when the younglings were slaughtered but practically everyone was crying after Obi-Wan beat Anakin and told him he loved him. After that, they went to a nice restaurant to get some food but on the way Kyoka's phone was getting multiple messages from a group chat with the girls.


Alien Queen: Did you tell him yet?


Kirby: Yeah, you can't not.


Printer: He will be so happy.


John Cena: I can't wait.


Kermit: Just go for it, he won't be mad.


Earphone: I am gonna wait till the restaurant then tell him.


Earphone: Also who typed 'I can't wait'? Can't see the username.


John Cena: You know exactly who it was. It was me Toru but please use my other name-



(Yeah it's been years since it was funny but my story my rules)




Eventually, the couple walked and were seated at a table where they ordered drinks and some food. Both ordered a glass of Coca Cola and a steak with fries and some salad. They'd been sat waiting for a while, talking about their relationship and how much they love each other and Eri. This topic in particular got Kyoka to tell Izuku what she needed to.


"Izu... I have to tell you something..." she said nervously, afraid of his reaction.


"What's up Kyo? Is something wrong?" He replied, immediately switching to his extremely loving and concerned side.


"No, everything is ok but I need to tell you... I'm pregnant." She then looked down and awaited a bad response. However, Izuku reached across the table, took her hands in his, looked her in the eyes, smiled and said:


"That's wonderful, I couldn't be happier." Tears then welled up in Kyoka's eyes so Izuku stood up, walked round to her and pulled her into a hug. The two stood there for a while in their embrace while they were celebrating the good news. Izuku placed a kiss gently on Kyoka's cheek and whispered into her ear.


"I love you Kyoka."


"I love you too Izuku." She whispered back, tears of joy dripping from her eyes and onto his shirt.




Eventually, their food had came to their table and they enjoyed it very much. However, they decided to stay a bit longer and get some more drinks. They had Coca Colas, Fantas, Sprites, Strawberry Lemonade and other various sweet drinks. At this point in time, they were sat discussing their child that would be expected in 8 months.


"We need to start thinking of names, and outfits, and who the godparents will be and aunts and uncles." Kyoka began rambling, a smile constantly plastered on her face. This gave Izuku a smile in return as he sat and listened to his love gush over the thought of them having a child together.


"What about your parents Kyo, do they know?" Izuku asked, hoping not to incur her father's wrath.


"About us? Yes. About the baby? No." I was gonna introduce you after they got back off their tour and then tell them about the baby. The problem is I don't know when they will be back and I want to do it face to face." She replied. Both were nervous about telling them but knew they had each other forever to get through it.




Suddenly a car came through a window unexpectedly and a bunch of armed men entered the building shooting their weapons. They were dressed fully in black and had red markings around their eyes representing a luchador mask. The gang began to demand that people get on their knees and beg for their lives. The men sounded Spanish and were very aggressive, but not very perceptive. Izuku had told Kyoka to do as they say until he returned before he silently planted a device under the table and exited through the back of the restaurant and into an alley. Izuku quickly checked for anyone watching as he pressed a button in his pocket, calling the Batmobile to him. Once it arrived, he opened the back to reveal the Batsuit and his gadgets.




Back in the restaurant, the gang was awaiting the arrival of the police as they emptied the register and held a few people hostage. Fortunately, Kyoka was not being held as a hostage but this didn't stop her being afraid. The police pulled up and formed a perimeter around the front exit and the next few streets. They got into cover with their guns, behind their cars aiming into the restaurant and at the gang.


"Stay back cabrones, unless you want these people to get some lead!" One member shouted.


"You heard cerdas, back up and drop the weapons." Another demanded. A cop tried to get the criminals to surrender but this didn't end up going the way they thought.


"Last chance perra, drop it or I drop this lady!"


"Put the gun down you criminal trash!"


"Hope she likes lead." The woman being held hostage was crying rivers of tears and Kyoka was panicking. Someone was going to die. The gang member, looked the cops dead in the eye as he pulled the trigger. Only... nothing happened. He pulled the trigger again. Nothing. It was happening to every gun, even the police weapons. Kyoka tried to understand what happened and then she saw it, the device Izuku placed earlier. It must be a short range disruption device. Then all of a sudden, a smoke bomb went off and the gang became disoriented. 




"Civilians, clear out." An officer yelled through the smoke. All civilians including Kyoka ran out the front door through the smoke and into the street.


"Where are the pros?" She asked.


"On their way miss. Not long hopefully cos we're practically useless in this situation. Besides, looks like Batman is in there so a pro should turn up to arrest him any minute." News helicopters were arriving on the scene to see what was happening and were recording when the smoke started to dissipate. Inside the restaurant, Batman was fighting all six gang members at once and wiping the floor with them.




"I'm gonna say this once, tell me who you work for, where they are and what they have planned before I have to force answers out of you." Batman demanded in his deep modulated voice.


"Never. Por la gloria de Bane y su conquista!" One member shouted. Then the rest yelled in unison.


"Por la gloria de Bane y su conquista!" Izuku simply replied to them in a way they would understand.


"Gracias idiotas." He then charged at one, propelling himself off a table and throwing a batarang at another as he kicked the first in the face. The one who took a boot to the face was instantly knocked out and the one who received a batarang had it lodged in his arm. Izuku then removed the batarang with force, causing them to pass out of shock. He threw the batarang again at another enemy, this time some small smoke bombs triggered around them. The remaining three drew knives and rushed towards Izuku while he used his batclaw to pull and slam the third into an AC unit head first. Having no time to rest, Izuku quickly dodged the incoming slashed. Two tried going for the body and one for his head. He blocked the one going for his head and kicked one away simultaneously. Then, he quickly sidestepped the other knife going for his body and made the person going for his head stab the person going for his body in the leg. This took care of one of the gang members and it was now down to Batman and two others. Thinking on his feet a little, Izuku threw a freeze blast at one of the thugs, immobilising him until the ice was broken or until Batman gets to him. Finally, the last enemy hit Izuku in the back with a chair which just shattered on impact. The chair shot knocked Izuku to the ground and the criminal tried to punch him, only to receive a headbutt and get thrown into a wall.




"Looks like the fighting stopped, go in and arrest him."


"You crazy? I'm not going in there."


"Good thing pros are on the way then. Miss, you can leave now. We'll have someone escort you home." An officer said to Kyoka as things were wrapping up inside. The class had been watching from back at the dorms and some heroes had been sent out to capture Batman and the criminals.


"Don't worry officers, I'll take it from here." Deatharms announced as he walked into the restaurant and stared directly at Batman.


*Shit. He looks scarier up close* he thought but he had to at least look tough.


"Batman, you're under arrest for interfering in hero activity, vigilantism and assault."


"That's funny Deatharms, had I not been here people would have died. Including a young girl in a hero course. I doubt you want to think of that. And if you don't mind me asking, where the hell were you? Waiting for someone with the right quirk? If you are really a hero, it shouldn't matter right?" This only angered Deatharms and he charged towards Batman. However, Izuku opened his cape and a swarm of bats filled the area, blinding everyone except him. Once all the bats were gone, the news, the police and Deatharms had all lost track of Batman. He had disappeared and took the one remaining conscious criminal with him.




Later on a roof somewhere


"Now, tell me what Bane has planned." Batman demanded, holding the criminal by the collar. Unfortunately, they didn't want to play ball and switched to speaking Russian.


"Ty menya ne ponimayesh'. Dazhe yesli by ty mog, ya umru, prezhde chem zagovorit."


"Ya mogu," Izuku replied, "i ne zastavlyay menya proveryat' eto. Now tell me!" He said nothing.


"Ok then, nice knowing you." He said coldly, dropping him off a building and watching him plummet toward the pavement. That was until the criminal felt something wrap around his leg and drag him back up. He stared into the eyes of fear and decided it was best not to push Batman. 


"Alright, alright. He is making a stronger version of venom. He calls it TITAN. He will break you Batman, it is only a matter of time."


"I didn't ask your opinion. Where is he making it?"


"He didn't say, all I know is that the prototype serum won't be ready for another two weeks."


"I appreciate the information, I just hope you appreciate the free dental care you're gonna receive." He then punches him square in the face, knocking him out and knocking out some of his teeth. Batman then left his unconscious body in front of the closest police station and headed back to the dorms to check on Kyoka and everyone else.
