Nomu, the artifice that will help me to end the UA. I should feel disturbed to have a severed head in my hands, but at this height nothing affects me.
—What am I supposed to do with this?
—This is the modified head of a Nomu. It was created for a single purpose, to explode. The day of the assembly you will place the head of the Nomu on the main column of the Academy, press the green button at the base of the head and the Nomu will open the mouth, bring it closer to the column and it will close the jaws clinging to the concrete, then you just have to press the red button and get out of there. Then you will see how the UA falls apart.
—It seems very complex. Why not use a simple explosive?
—Don't be naive, Dian, a simple explosive would give the hero Cementos time to prevent the building from collapsing. That is why we use the modified Nomu. With this, the energy of the explosion will be transmitted through the column to every centimeter of the building, and then the debris will fall into a devastating implosion, all in a matter of couple of seconds.
—Good, so I just have to find the main column and place this, piece of cake.
I put the Nomu in my backpack and get ready to leave the restaurant, but not before hearing a last message from Tomura.
—I know you can do it.
Words of encouragement from a villain who asks me to kill the heroes, they are not necessary, my pain is enough motivation to move on. I go straight to my bed once I arrived at the residence, I am very tired.
It's morning, I have no desire to continue with this farce, and my chest hurts a lot. When I left my room, I see Momo in the hallway.
—Good morning, how are you? You look quite bad.
—I'm fine, Momo, don't worry.
I try to follow my path, but Momo doesn't let me. She takes my hand again, like that day in prison.
—I know it's none of my business, but yesterday you came too late. I don't know what you are doing, but I have a bad feeling. You are always away from the group, you look very tired and you do not talk to anyone. Please if something happens or something bothers you tell me, together we can solve it.
That attitude had always caught my attention. Why a rich girl is worried about a looser like me? I suppose she feels she should take pity of me.
—You're right Momo, it's none of your business...
Without being able to finish my sentence I start coughing out of control, this time it is more violent than ever and I can't hide. I fall to my knees while the ground is covered with the blood that comes out of my mouth.
—Dian!!!, what is happening to you?
I can't even speak. Everyone goes out to see what happens; With the help of Midoriya and Iida, I get to the infirmary where Recovery Girl treats me with medications and performs tests to know what happened.
The sunset falls and with it the results of the analyzes arrive.
—Listen to me young man, apparently your body is in bad shape. When you bursted into anger over the death of your sister, your quirk got out of control by breaking all the limits of your body. Those limits are there to protect you, if you break them, well this is the result.
—I'm going to die
—No, it's not that serious, but you shouldn't use your quirk for any reason in the world until you recover, or you could really die.
The news are not very encouraging, but it is nothing that really matters; Thanks to the Nomu I don't need to use my quirk. After that afternoon the week pass calmly. I take advantage of the free hours I have to wander around the Academy looking for the main column. It takes me a little but finally I find it. The base is in the underground floors of the building. I draw on a paper an improvised map to reach the column. Everything is ready.
Disappear from the world "heroes"
The long-awaited day arrives. All students prepare as they do every morning. I'm ready with the Nomu in my backpack. The majority already went to the Academy, only Momo remains in the house. I approach her room, she is brushing her pretty hair.
—Hi Momo, I wanted to talk to you.
—Sure, come in, how do you feel? Better?
—Yes, I'm fine now. You know I wanted to say sorry for everything I've done, for everything.
—You don't have to apologize for anything. It's been difficult for you, so it's okay.
—Sure, then I let you finish getting ready.
Momo, if there is something that I can't do is hurt you, so please stay here until everything is over.
I close Momo's door and using my gift and I seal it. My head is spinning a little, Recovery Girl warned me not to use my quirk but if it's a little nothing happens.
I leave the residence and head towards the column, but I don't carry the map with me, it seems that I lost it. It's late to come back so I use my memory to arrive to the column. Although it takes me a little longer than expected, I am on time. I put the head of the Nomu and activate the bomb, now I just have to get out of here.
—Dian, what are you doing with that Nomu?
My heart jumps, there is an intruder. I must kill that person before the plan fails. I turn over and there she is, standing in front of me, Momo.
—How did you get here?
—I knew something was wrong when I couldn't open my door, so I broke it down, then I found this map lying down that led me here. don't tell me Dian that Nomu's head is...
—That's right, the League of Villains, I'm just... an infiltrator
—Why? —Tears fall down her cheeks, now more than ever I can't look at her in the eyes.
—Why? I'll tell you, —I say with rage. — I have nothing. I lost my family, my home, everything. Nothing matters anymore, I have nothing left.
—You've got me!!!
Momo approaches and hugs me while her tears fall on my shoulder.
—I have you?
Certainly, she has been with me at all times, when my sister died, in the hospital, in prison, in the Academy, always worried about me. Why I broke in tears? Why I hug Momo? Why is it that I do all this? I convinced myself that I had lost everything and did not know that I still had someone with me. No, I always knew it, only that I ignored it. It was easier to plunge into pain than to accept that my sister was gone and move on but Momo never let go of my hand Thank you my princess, my heroine.
Thank you
A horrible shriek interrupts the moment, the bomb is still active; The hug ends.
—Momo, you must get out of here and let everyone know about the bomb
—But you…
—There's no time. Don't worry about me, I'm just going to cover the bomb with my quirk, so it will reduce its impact.
—I understand, you better get out of here quickly.
—It is a promise
Momo moves away from the place; I must take care of the nomu. Covering it will not prevent the destruction, I must take it out. Ignoring the warning from Recovery Girl I use my quirk to create several tentacles of ink and pull the bomb out. With every effort my head throbs in pain. After a few attempts I manage to strip a piece of the column and with this the bomb.
My body is giving up, but I must continue; using my gift I wrap the Nomu in a hard and compact sphere, I have to take it out from the place or it could cause damage.
The alarms begin to sound; Momo managed to warn everyone, it's like relief music for me. Now that I am far from the main column my body can’t hold the pain any more. The sphere falls to the floor. I don’t have the strength to carry it. I am only able to take a few steps before collapsing, my chest and head hurt and my vision is blurred. My body whispers to me "You can't escape anymore". I'm sorry Momo.
I'm going to die
But that's fine because in a strange way it could be said that I became a hero, by opening my eyes again to the light and thwarting Tomura's plan of destruction, that's what I want to believe
You can see it sister, I became a hero...
The bomb explodes, I can see how the sphere begins to crack, it will not contain all the energy. Everything fades into a beam of light...
I hope you are proud.
