Becoming #1 With Stun-Gun Hero!! - Chapter 68. Kidnapping

We all slowly walked out of the alley while I was dragging Stain, after Ida was done crying, and apologizing to all of us. While walking Deku came close to me. “Did I really save you before school started?” I looked at him and noted his gaze, full of intrigue, and longing. ‘I guess he wants to know that he saved somebody even before he gained his power.’ I smiled, brought my arm around him and said. “Of course. You saved me everyday that I didn’t become somebody like Stain.” Hearing that, he looked down with a reddened face.

After making it out of the alley Gran Torino came out of nowhere and started beating Midoriya. I smiled at this nice scene as small-time heroes, and side-kicks came rushing to our aid; courtesy of Todoroki telling his father about something important happening here. While everything was happening I released Stain from my binds for the others to rope him up themselves. While they were doing that I was about to wrap Deku up so I could be connected to him when he was going to get dragged off until my thoughts were cut-off.

“Get down!” as I looked up I noticed a flying Nomu coming towards us at high speeds. I was about to rush to Deku’s side until I noticed I was already up in the air. ‘Did I really make fun of that hand-covered idiot so much that he thought to kill or kidnap me?’ My thoughts went away for a second before remembering something important. ‘Stain was supposed to save Deku, but since he is out of commission, and I am not a hero in his eyes… I’m dead if I can’t take care of this myself.’

With that in mind I decided to free myself. “If I remember correctly, flying types are weak to electricity!” and with that I put electricity into my hand and pressed it against the flying Nomu’s leg. He didn’t even flinch. ‘Should’ve expected that. If it really was designed with that as a back-up plan then electricity resistance is a must.’

“Ok then I may have to get a little more dirty.” I said while rolling my wrist. I then shot out one cord around Nomu’s neck, and another around his right wing. “This can pull me, and another grown man up a building with ease. I wonder how much torque is required to pull your body inside out!!” And with that I started the motors at full power. Within seconds the Nomu’s wing was almost severed except for some of the big bones, but definitely enough to stop him flying. We started to plummet to the ground. ‘I knew there was some part of the plan I forgot to factor in.’

We were falling fast. I already strangled the Nomu enough to let me go. I don’t know if he was dead or just passed out, but I didn’t have time to care. As fast as I could I retracted both of my wires, and grappled onto a sign on top of a building close by. ‘This is going to hurt even with pain resistance.’ After I fell a little bit more the slack on the line was cut, and I felt like my arm was almost pulled out of its socket. Right after that I went head first into the building the sign was on top of.

‘I blocked off most of the impact with my legs and free arm, but I’m definitely gonna want to see recovery girl when I get back to school.’ I lowered myself from the building and found the Nomu on the ground still trying to flap its wings to take me, and fly off again. I shook my head and wrapped one of my wires around its neck. I then cranked up the torque and finished what I started. With that I kept the wire round its neck, and began the long, arduous walk back to everyone else. I wasn’t down on much battery, but I was tired from all of the excitement.

About 5 minutes of walking, and I found Midoriya crying on the ground with one of his legs seemingly sprained or perhaps broken. He was off in his own world so he didn’t notice me trudge up right next to him. “C’mon little bro, the others are probably worried.” I gave him a smirk as he looked at me in shock and disbelief in his eyes. I got down and put him on my back, this caused him to wince in pain. “I-I tried to save you, b-but I couldn’t control my emotions. I accidentally cracked my leg, I-I thought I couldn’t save you!” He continued to cry in sadness of himself for not being strong enough to protect what was important.

I knew a little about that feeling. “I already told you. You saved me before you even had your quirk. You saved me from myself. It is good to be strong enough to protect those closest to you, but you can’t force it to happen. Besides, did you think I couldn’t take care of one injured Nomu? I can’t believe you think so little of your big bro.” Midoriya started to chuckle in between sobs. After that conversion was done we both silently made our way back to the others, no doubt chasing after us behind Deku.

I noticed after a bit that Deku was asleep on my back. I shook my head with a small smile. “Being a big brother is hard.”
