Cyclone's P. O. V

===============

"Ug..." I said as i was holding my head from the pain.

What happened last night? I was... Hearing voices... What was that about? I haven't experienced that in a few years. 

"I'm in my bed? Huh." I told myself.

"Son? Are you awake now?" My mom said as she went into my room.

"What happened ma?" I said to my mom. "Sorry if I worried you there..."

"You were screaming outside the door. And i knew it just wasn't a knock." Mom told to me. "And don't worry Cyclone. It's normal for a parent to worry about you. You always put your life at risk of being a hero." 

"I'm doing this for your safety. I don't wanna lose you. I lost everyone i love in this family." I said worriedly to my mom.

My mom smiled and hugged me saying.

"Don't worry. I won't be the rest of them. I don't wanna know what would you become when i'm gone. So i'm doing everything i can to survive." My mom said reassuringly while she still hugging me.

"..." I hugged her back without saying anything.

"Since you're awake now, you need to eat breakfast." My mom said to me.

Well. I haven't eaten anything since yesterday's lunch since i fainted on my door. So i didn't get to eat dinner.

"Can i eat lunch instead?" I asked my mom.

"Sure. You didn't eat dinner yesterday." My mom said as she stood up from my bed and went to the kitchen. I think.

My head still hurts. I could just stay here at my house. But villains are on the move. I can't just let them do that.

"Here we go. Take it slow. Might fall off again or something..." As i slowly stood up from my bed and started walking slowly to the kitchen.

At the kitchen...

"What's for lunch ma?" I asked my mom as she was washing the dishes.

"I haven't started on it yet son." As she continues washing the dishes. "But what do you want?" She added.

"Hm... Eggs and bacon?" I said confusingly.

"That's breakfast food you're asking. But you want it, you'll get it son. Go sit in the dining table. I'll be quick on this cooking." My mom chuckled as she pointed her right index finger to a dining chair.

I sat at the dining chair and i pulled out my phone and check the social media. That yesterday's robbery should be definitely in the news.

"Huh." I said as i saw immediately the robbery in the "most relevant" tab of the news...

After a bit...

As i finished reading the article, they really made me a villain than the hero of that situation. That Endeavor saved the hostages and i was just standing there doing nothing. The media man. Never ceases to fuckin amaze me dude.

"Ma. The news made me look like a villain again." I said to my mom. I feel like a child telling a mother that he didn't like their neighbor's son.

"Really? How could they!?" My mom said in disbelief. "Who wrote that?"

"Don't sweat it ma. I can change this narrative in a few weeks. If that Endeavor person doesn't ruin everything i do." As i sighed heavily.

"Endeavor? Him again?" My mom said irritatedly.

"You don't like him also ma?" I asked surprised.

"Of course! He just made you look a villain." As she grits her teeth.


I smirked and just let her say everything that she has in her mind. But after her cooking, the bacon and eggs are finally done.


"Here you go, sweetie. You leaving again today right?" My mom said as she placed the plate of bacon and eggs onto my table.


"Thanks, ma." As i grabbed a glass of water from the tray. "And yes, i'm going again today. And i'll buy dinner for the night. So you don't have to cook anything." I said while i am moving through the bacon and eggs dish.


"Thank you." My mom said as she sat in a chair adjacent to me.


"No sweat." As i continue eating the food.


After lunch...


"Be safe out there son." My mom said as i walk to the door outside.


"It'll be fine ma. Anyway, i'll be going now. Goodbye." As i waved my hand to my mom while i started to become wind itself. Disappearing off the neighborhood.


At the city square...


I sat there at one of the rooftops of a building next to the city square. Inside news from the hero offices says that a B-class villain is gonna be on the city square. Not sure of the time, i decided to go to the square early so i can just hang around while i wait for that villain to come out.

"This is gonna get really boring really soon. The intel might be off." I said to myself. While i play with a mini-dagger i pulled out from my back pocket.


I layed down on the ground and pulled my phone and started to play Snake with my phone. There's no entertainment so this will do.


"Huh? The Wind Phantom?" A mysterious, yet familiar voice came from behind me.


"Hm?" I looked above me. "Oh."

All Might. 


"Oh. You again. I see you finally got to me." I said in my blank tone.


"You were avoiding me the whole week young Cyclone." All Might said while he has that stupid big grin on his face. Looks like a certain skeleton with an eye himself.


"I know what you're gonna ask me. And i'll say it again, I'll think about it." I said irritated.


The big grin guy has been following me all over the place and sometimes i see him in my field of vision. He definitely wants me to be a teacher. Of the "legendary" U. A High School. 


Seriously, just give me a b̸̻͕͓͐̄́̓̓͝ŗ̶͈͙̤̗͋̎̋̌̀é̵̦̳̰̝͕͍͚͙͊̎̊̑́͗a̸̠̘̺̳̙̫͓͙̯͇͂̇͆̂͒̕ķ̷̪̗̼̞̩̍̊̌͊͂͒͛̃͘͝.


"You're not fulfilling your true job as a hero." All Might said trying to be convincing. "To be a role-model to the other young heroes in that school." All Might added.


"I don't give a damn if they see me as a hero or a villain. Legacies don't matter to me. As long i keep the people i love safe." As i looked to the sky.


"You say that. I can see your point. But you really think the villains care or even, the masses would care?" All Might asked with a serious tone.


"I'm not in a mood for arguing over an invitation. I'll keep my options open." I said blankly.


"You better choose wisely. And quickly too. We might find another teacher. The window is closing fast." All Might trying his best to sound like it's a "once in a lifetime" chance.


"Go on old man." As i gestured him to leave the rooftop and leave me be.


"U. A...." I sighed thinking about that option of being a "teacher". I really don't what i could teach. I would rather just to be a "nomad" type of hero. But that option is pretty tempting not gonna lie...


After an hour...


Alright. This just came in, Gunslinger's hero agency got intel that Stain is coming here. Him again too. That guy is a pain to fight against. Smart, powerful, intimidating and just all-around pain in the ass to fight against. I haven't got a lot of intel on his abilities, quirk, and connections but i think i have a "puncher's chance" against him. 

"Better get my tear gas ready for this." As i take a tear gas out of my side pocket. Ready to pull the pin if he even thinks coming behind me or any direction. Maybe under my feet, he'll just jump out and try to slash me.


I blinked and my left eye pupil turned white again. To be honest. I haven't really had a name for this superhuman ability that i have. But i'm gonna think about it if i have the time. But i scanned the area for any targets in the area.

Ability Description:

His "Eye" (No Name Yet): Can see the future, see the enemy's next move, and superhuman observation abilities. And see everyone in the area. How you ask? If they just breathed, they'll appear in his sights. Could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the situation of the Phantom.


Back to the story.

I look behind me and see him jumping around the windows trying to get me already. 


"Wind Aura!" I said as i felt myself being lighter. And as for the Hero Killer, he may or may not be in walking speed right now...


FOOSH!


I caught a really sharp knife that really looks familiar. I already see what's next so i duck i could avoid Stain's kick to the head that was to put me off-balance for a little bit.


"How are you The Wind Phantom?" Stain said with the most menacing tone i heard yet from a villain so far.


And then our menacing auras collide with each other. We were trying to intimidate each other. But with this aura of mine, this ability has an advantage. 


"Just what are you doing here?" I ask Stain.


"What do you think it is?" Stain said as he licked his lips. Creepy.


"Knew it." I disappeared off the spot. Knowing his also observant nature, i tried to go the "predictable" place where i would show up. In front of him. Wait. Is that predictable?

Third Person's P. O. V

===============

Cyclone reappeared in front of Stain then he used Wind Blast. Making Stain go flying. But he wasn't done yet.


"DON'T BLINK!" Cyclone screamed as he disappeared again from his position.


BLINK!


He reappeared again and he slashed Stain down on the fountain in the center of the square.


"Wind Solidification: Wind Wall!" Cyclone already saw what's Stain's gonna do. 


Stain jumped as she tried to get back at Cyclone who was floating in the air. He slashed, he was stopped... By an invisible wall. 


"Surrender or get killed. Your choice." Cyclone said blankly to Stain.


"You haven't even got a cut in me Stain. That's embarrassing." Cyclone added. Taunting him.


"You haven't seen nothing yet Phantom." As Stain disappeared from his position with his immense speed. Compared to Cyclone's turning into wind itself to disappear.


Stain threw a knife filled with blood. Stain knew quirks can only damage Cyclone. But Cyclone wasn't having it, he made a front flip as he caught the knife mid-air on it's handle and threw it back on the fountain. And the fountain's water is going red from the blood.


"Gust!" Cyclone called out as the air suddenly became really powerful. Forcing Stain back to the ground. 

Cyclone keeps his hand gripped. Signaling that the gust is not stopping until he lets go of his grip.


"Not bad kid. You're truly a true hero. I went here just to test you." Stain said as he still struggles on the ground.


"You knew that i was here?" Cyclone said as he one eyebrow up in confusion.


"I just said i was coming here because i knew you would show up." Stain as he coughs heavily.


"Give me a reason to not kill you right here right now." Cyclone said as his left white eye glowed in an intimidating fashion.


"I'm here just to test you. If you were a "false" hero, i would have easily killed you." Stain said calmly to the Phantom.


"What makes you think that? I heard that you have extremist beliefs. What is it with the "false" heroes of this society?" Cyclone asked as he was trying to get some intel off from Stain.


"Don't you get it by now? If you can't get it. You'll never get it." Stain said.


"I'll think about your ideology. But why did you have to test me? My only purpose as a hero is to protect what i love." 


< You're gonna be a villain yourself someday Phantom. >

Cyclone's P. O. V

===============

What did i just hear? Was it from my head?


"I deem you worthy as a true hero. I don't have to kill you. But here some advice,  you're way too uncreative using of your quirk. If i had that quirk, i could have done more with that. Keep that in mind." Stain surprisingly gave me advice.


Did he really just gave me advice? I guess this guy isn't that bad... But he's still labeled a villain so... I don't know what to do.


"Here's the deal. I'll free you, but don't you cause problems as much next time." I said menacingly. 


"Threats doesn't work against me. But sure. And by the way,


I wasn't even trying when we were battling." 


Jesus. He wasn't even trying? This guy is just a pain in the ass 100%.


I let go of my grip and the powerful wind subsided.


"Hope i'll run into you soon Phantom." Stain said as he jumps to the rooftops and off the scene...


The police came just in the right time... As Stain was already gone. What in the hell what they were doing? Eating doughnuts? Goddamn policemen.


"Where did Stain go sir?" A policeman came running to me.


I sighed as i say my last words of the day.


"He got away."
