Himura (MHA)

-They have already reported us and will be here soon...- Bucephalus did not have time to finish speaking, as a boulder flew out of the darkness, breaking trees. Bucephalus grabbed it, but it was too huge and heavy, so it was pressed into the ground, breaking a couple of trees. Nobu used Adhesion and climbed a tree, while Firespitter hid in the thicket. In the darkness, another group of junta soldiers approached, shining flashlights. They opened fire on Bucephalus, he hid behind a stone, but the stone suddenly moved, revealing the cover. Now he was vulnerable.

-Don't shoot! I'm unarmed! - He threw down the machine gun and raised his hands above his head. The soldiers surrounded him, carefully checking the area. A fiery breath shone from the darkness, simultaneously burning the bushes, and Nobu waited for the moment, nervously aimed, an idea occurred to him if he activated Expansion on the gun. "No, then the recoil will most likely destroy my hand. I can only load a bullet." And then a shot rang out, it hit the soldier's head, instantly killing him, the recoil spread through the muscles, and the gun's barrel was still torn apart by the powerful bullet. Bucephalus took advantage of the pause and ran into the darkness, followed by both of them. Nobu jumped from the tree and ran away with Firespitter.

- Do you need help? - Firespitter laughed at how difficult it was for a six-year-old to run with equipment, and then stopped laughing, realizing that he was just a child and had no place here, in this hell. The helicopter froze above them and the light of the searchlight fell on them. A machine gun was mounted on it, which opened fire. Having barely avoided a burst of machine gun fire, they disappeared into the ravine, where Bucephalus was waiting for them.

- We need to get rid of the helicopter, otherwise we won't be able to leave! - Firespitter looked out from behind the ravine at the beams from the flashlights approaching them.

- I have an idea, but I doubt it... - While Bucephalus was working out how to avoid the helicopter's beams, Nobu had an idea. Since he had learned to use the destructive power from Expansion, the idea of ​​destroying the helicopter with a stone no longer seemed absurd, but the recoil would most likely be painful if you need to pierce the helicopter's skin to fly out. The bullet, in this case, unfortunately, has good streamlining, and it is too small to shoot down the helicopter in one hit. The barrel will only withstand one hit, and there is no damage, it will simply fly right through. Therefore, it is not a bullet that is needed, but a heavy projectile as a core, for which a stone was ideal.

- Find a stone, quickly! - They were surprised by Nobu's strange request.

- No time for games...

- Just trust me. - Nobu looked serious.

While they were looking for the stone, there were quite a few of them in the forest, especially in the dark, Nobu solved another problem, his hand would be destroyed to hell from the increased charge capable of blowing up a helicopter, so he would simply load the stone and hand it to Bucephalus. With his strong body, he could withstand the recoil. The soldiers were in no hurry to climb into the darkness after their losses and retreated. Firespitter noticed this.

- We have more time. - He exhaled, folding his machine gun. Searchlights were breaking through in some areas of the forest. Unfortunately for them, several more helicopters began flying in the sky, combing the area much more effectively. They could only stay in one place, because it was dangerous to run across, movement from above was easier to notice.

Bucephalus threw several weighty stones to the ground.

- I hope you have a plan. - He continued to doubt Nobu's actions.

-Well, if you continue to doubt. - Nobu sat down and looked at all the stones, stroked them. From the outside it seemed that way, and loaded one of them for a test shot, knowing that Bucephalus was not a pro at throwing and accuracy. He handed the loaded stone to Bucephalus and said sarcastically.

- Hocus pocus! Now you're super-strong, now throw it at the helicopter. - He and Firespitter moved away. Bucephalus sighed and looked at the stone. - Did you do something to it? A stone is like a stone. I hope it doesn't explode in my hand. - He began to get nervous and glance at Nobu.

It dawned on Nobu from Bucephalus's last phrase. If he activates the ability not when the stone is in his hand and is in a passive state, but already during the flight. - Wait, wait. - Nobu pulled the stone out of his hand and stood on a small edge of the forest, over which a helicopter was flying. The searchlight will soon fall on Nobu.

- What kind of games are you playing, Nobu! We don't have time for this. - Fire-Spitter was already getting nervous and wanted to hide the crazy guy away from the searchlight.

- No, it seems he has some kind of trump card that we don't know about. - Bucephalus interrupted Fire-Spitter.

- A trump card? - he looked at him questioningly.

- An ability. I've long suspected that he's not simple.

- What? Another quirk? But how?!

Nobu tensed every muscle and swung. "With my enhanced perception, I'll be able to activate it in mid-flight, and the impulse will probably even be stronger, because the charge uses the initial energy from the flight. It's a dynamic state." The searchlight focused on him in the middle of the forest, and just as the machine gunner was about to open fire, Nobu took aim and threw the stone, activating Expansion immediately after the stone stopped touching Nobu's finger.

The heavy stone accelerated to the speed of sound and even turned red from air resistance, slightly emitting light. In a split second, it flew the entire distance to the helicopter, and there were about fifty meters to it.

A terrible howl was heard from the sonic speed of the projectile. The machine gunner was torn apart, the projectile flew through his chest, piercing the skin of the helicopter and destroying the rotor that holds the helicopter in the air. The helicopter simply tore apart in the air. An explosion was heard in the middle of the forest.

*BOOM*

- Holy shit! - Firespitter and Bucephalus shuddered.

Nobu is surprised by the howl and is happy that the projectile was able to reach such a speed, the stone itself is heavy, and if you accelerate this mass... He was afraid that his hand would be torn apart by the recoil, but now the problem with the recoil is solved and you can move on. Thus, he converted the recoil into useful power and one charge is now capable of bringing even such a piece of stone to the speed of sound, not to mention such projectiles as a bullet.

- I wonder why the explosion occurred, the fuel ignited from the temperature of the stone? - The charred remains of the helicopter fell somewhere ahead.

- Nobu, what was that?! - Firespitter ran up to him.

- Focus.

- Okay, you'll tell me later anyway.

- No. - he smiled sarcastically.

- Wait, so you have two quirks? The first was Adhesion, and now this. How can that be?

- We need to check the helicopter, maybe the machine gun survived. - Bucephalus went towards the fallen and burning remains of the helicopter.

- Aren't you surprised? He was hiding his ability from us! - He whispered to Bucephalus, away from Nobu. - I knew he was no ordinary guy, this is the first time I've seen a person with two abilities. We're lucky he's on our side. We barely know him, he's become part of us too quickly. What else could he be hiding? Could he be dangerous?

- Shut up. There's no time for that. - Bucephalus interrupted. - All I know is that we need to get out of here and get back to Anandaman. - Nobu had been eavesdropping all this time, with his enhanced perception, it wasn't a problem.

"Should we go back to Anandaman? Maybe the scales have tipped now, the Junta is running the country, their army is strong. Why would I want Anandaman to be their thug?" Nobu didn't trust anyone in this country, not even Bucephalus. He realized that Anandaman had suddenly become useless and powerless after the Junta's attack, showing their weakness.

"I don't need to get involved in these faction wars, this isn't my country, this isn't my people. I just need to come to an agreement with the Junta to organize my return to Japan. Although maybe even in my homeland they already consider me a corpse. It doesn't matter, the main thing is that I'm alive and Nezu is still may be in Musutafu."

"If I just show up to the Junta, they'll kill me. I need to attract attention to myself, and the best way is right here in this forest. For example, shoot down a helicopter or two. I hope they'll need me, and they'll see an opportunity in me and won't avenge their losses. This forest will also become a testing ground for me to develop my abilities."
