Chapter 1: Surprise Future.
The skies above the city of Musutafu in the nation of Japan was unsually dark. It wasn't supposed to be this cloudy or windy an hour ago, when the skies were still relatively clear and sunny. It was a perfect day to be outside, with a gentle breeze rustling the trees to help the citizens of Musutafu beat the summer heat. This was until the breeze turned into a powerful gale, causing the gathering of storm clouds to cover the entire city like a grey blanket. No sooner after the clouds gather did the downpour began, catching the citizens off guard and forcing them to quickly run into the nearest shelters. Some kids also cowered in the embrace of their mothers as forks of blue lightning streaked across the sky, delivering devastating claps of thunder. A flash of lightning struck a tree near the road through the middle, administering a scorching vertical gash and caused it to fall onto the pavement and the right portion of the road. Pedestrians hurriedly moved out off the way while an unlucky driver was forced to served to the side in order to prevent a collision.
"This is just in," a lady observing from a helicopter hovering over the city scape was stating as she was trying her utmost best to look presentable in the torrential downpour. The strong winds weren't helping either as they caused the aerial vehicle to sway occasionally, and the pilot struggled slightly to keep it stable.
"Musutafu is now experiencing what you can say is the biggest storm yet! According to our on site weather specialist, there are winds travelling at roughly 60 kilometers per hour! Citizens are urged to stay indoors and ceased all outdoor activities! Drivers are also to find the nearest stop and find shelter till the clear sign is displayed on the right side of your screens! So stay tune to-"
The weather lady did not get to complete her sentence as she was drowned by a roaring sound behind her. As she noticed her cameraman with his recorder no longer pointing at her, and his jaw hanging down as he stared right behind her, she turned around and found herself gawking in shock as a bright white light enveloped her and the entire city. The skies above the west outskirts of Musutafu City cleared a hole and shot out a beam of white light towards the ground. Everyone watching the news were observing in shock as the bright pillar of light momentarily increased in sized with a few bolts of electric power before it quickly dispersed to nothing. All they could hear now, are the roar of thunder and the gushing of torrential downpour.
The weather lady stared in the direction of this phenomenon in utter shock and found herself speechless. "What the hell was that?" She thought.
…
West outskirts of Musutafu City:
Within a small clearing, the pillar of white light slammed into the grassy patch like a hammer, flattening the area easily. Meanwhile, 8 brighter lights descending from within the top of the light pillar and touched the earth at the exact time, causing a loud boom, to echo across the field. Then, for the briefest of moments, everything in the clear came to a standstill, besides the ongoing storm raging across Musutafu City.
Not a single thing moved, no one breathed.
There was only…silence.
Then, a streak of lightning along with a clap of thunder hit the ground and dispersed the light pillar, causing a flash of bright light to illuminate the entire area completely, definitely blinding anyone who should happen to be in that area.
However, the clearing is no longer deserted. A second streak of lightning flashed across the clearing, revealing a group of 8 shadowed figures; three boys and five girls. All of them are wearing long cloaks with hoods, obscuring their faces and build.
Only the heavy rain gushed down on the new arrivals' figures, welcoming them with a shower, and prompted the second guy to lift his hood a little a observe his surroundings.
"It seems that we have made it." The second boy was the first to break the silence, removing his hood and revealed his entire face. First of all, he was reasonably tall with a face which looked about 16 years old. His long hair which did not grow pass his neck was made up of two colours; the top being white while the bottom was black. He had dark onyx eyes and one could see that he wore black combat boots beneath his cloak. "The jump was successful."
"Don't jump to assumptions Fubuki." The girl right next to him pulled her hood behind her to air her long jet-black hair and proceeded to observe her surroundings. If one were to be close enough, they could see that the girl's hair had red highlights at her bangs and the at ends, contrasting brilliantly with her neon-blue irises. "You're always too lazy to check, learn to be more aware won't you!?"
"You're too excited Guren-nee." The white and black-haired boy known as Fubuki retorted to the girl. "I know my home when I see it."
"He's right." The first male responded in a slightly higher but nonetheless authoritative voice and removed his hood as well. The boy was around the same age in the male called Fubuki, slightly shorter and with short messy green hair cropped at the sides along with huge brown eyes. Four freckles dotted each of his cheek and he had a noticeable scar running across his neck and to his left cheek. He stepped out of the circle and gazed towards the lights displaying the night scenery of Musutafa City. "We are home. This is definitely Musutafu City."
"Home?" A small girl barely reaching anyone's waist asked while clinging tightly to her older sister Guren's hand. She was dressed in pair of blue pajamas with a hood adorned with teddy bear ears. She could not have been older than 6.
"How could you be so sure?" Guren asked the male.
"See those tall lights over there?" He pointed towards the distance.
The boy's companions took another sweep of their surroundings.
The short green-haired boy pointed towards a tall tower noticeable even in the heavy rain. "That's the Musutafu Radio Tower we saw when we were kids, there is no mistaking it."
"I'll say." The third boy stepped forward while the wind blew back his hood, revealing his spiky dark purple hair and his prominent lazy-looking onyx eyes with long lower eyelashes. The boy also had a black lightning shaped tattoo on his right cheek and wore a pair of ray ban gold sunglasses. One other prominent feature was that he had a pair of plug-like earphone jacks on his earlobes. A pair of headphones covered his ears and an electric yellow guitar case with lightning designs was swung over his left shoulder. "It sure looks a hell lot better than without fires, explosions, debris, and don't forget the libera-"
"GAH! So noisy! You want me to turn your mouth into a crisp you lazy tattoo-face!?" A voice from the back blew up from the obvious irritancy he/she was facing right now. It was feminine this time, but the constant swearing was making some of the members cringe. "You're been talking non-stop since the trip and I'm itching to wipe that mouth off your shitty face!"
"Oh really?" The sunglasses-wearing boy taunted while reaching out for his guitar case. "What are you going to do? Blow yourself up again? There's no telling what will happen with two hotheads in this timeline."
"Why you...!"
"Okay we get it, stop it Noto." The green-haired boy ruffled his own hair in annoyance in response to the youth's sarcastic statement. "Don't give Hanabi another reason to explode."
"Sorry boss." / "WHAT WAS THAT YOU SHITTY BASTARD!?" The boy called Noto raised his hands in apology and the girl with temper issues shouted back in fumes of anger.
"I can't believe it…" The second last girl pulled down her hood as she took a few steps to embrace the beautiful night cityscape of her former hometown. "We're back…w-we really are back…to our home…"
The girl had shoulder-long brown hair with curved slightly inwards, making her hair look like slight bob. Her hair was also a little messy at the ends and her bangs, making her overall hairstyle to look a little wavy. She had big green eyes and two pink highlights on her cheeks. The girl apparently could not take the huge surge of emotions in her heart and sat on the ground, tears leaking out from her eyes. The rest of the group did not dare to approach her as they too began to have resurfacing memories of the city they had once called home. Only sobbing was heard till a figure marched forward in front of the group, not able to stand this sappy scene.
"Oh come on Shuri...don't cry now."
"Yeah, now is not the time to get freaking emotional you damn round-eyes." The temperamental girl called Hanabi now taken off her hood to address the crying girl face to face. She had long, wild spiky ash-blonde hair which flowed in the strong wind like a lion's mane. As if to complement her already wild nature, she also had long canine teeth and purple feral eyes. She slammed her fist together as she continued. "Lots of people are counting on us so stop you damn crying! The sooner we trash those shitty bastards, the faster we can go home."
Silence followed Hanabi's declaration until they all heard whimpering. They turned around and realized in shock that the youngest girl of the group was shaking and covering her ears protectively, eyes tearing up at the sudden output of noise level.
"OH NO!" The entire group cried out as Fubuki and Guren quickly squatted down and try to calm their little sister down. Hanabi herself was at a loss of what to do.
"Hanabi!" Everyone else stared at the ash-blonde girl with admonishing looks.
"What!?" Hanabi retorted back. "It was at the heat of the moment!"
"Well, be more careful won't you!" Guren reprimanded while removing her younger sister's hands from her ears. "My sister is here!"
"Baka…" Noto muttered under his breath, not going unnoticed by Hanabi.
"Why you…"
"ENOUGH!" The green-haired boy ordered, his voice raised to dangerous levels while his aura flared slightly. "Quiet down you two."
Noto bowed his head apologetically while Hanabi huffed a 'hmpt!' and walked away, not daring to test the patience of their de facto leader anymore. However she kicked the boy in the shin along the way, causing him to clutch his leg and scream silently in his head.
With the conflict out of the way (somewhat), the rest of the group turned to their leader.
"What now Izuma?" Fubuki asked.
"I was actually planning a roll call to make sure everyone is here…" The green-haired boy known as Izuma confessed while several of his teammates fell over comically.
"What are we, in school!?"
"Me, Shuri, Fubuki, Guren, Mio, Noto and Hanabi. Last I checked, I only heard 7 voices." Izuma stated. "Where's Setsuna?"
"Right here."
The group turned around as the final member of the group emerged from a shadowed part of the clearing. The girl had long flowing wavy hair which was as black as ink, her hair parted to the side to reveal her mesmerising blood-red eyes. Unlike the rest of the group, her black cloak has been unbuttoned from the front, showing that she was dressed in UA's standard uniform with dark red stockings and red high heel boots. A red tattered scarf was also seen wrapped around her neck.
"I was scouting the area." The final member of the group reported while she she swept some leaves off her dress. "On your orders."
"Good work, but you could have sounded out so as to let us know you were with us the entire time you know?" Izuma sighed, knowing full well how this girl was serious in her work. Perhaps too serious.
Ignoring Izuma's words, Setsuna turned to the group and reported her findings. "So far there were no sign of authorities or citizens in this area, but I spotted several police cars headed this way. I suggest we move away from here as fast as possible."
"Boss, what's the plan?"
Izuma dug into his pocket and produced an old notebook used for jolting down notes. He quickly flipped to a bookmarked page.
"We head towards UA and make our plans from there. If the information on the notebook is correct, the members from the class 1-A would be on a on-the-field lesson in the central part of Musutafa City. During that time, we would need to confirm the identities of our chosen targets before we can approach them. Through them, we can meet up with the current principal of the UA school and tell them our story. Whether they believe it, its all up to fate." The green-haired leader spoke quickly and looked up, noticing that everyone understood his instructions, much to his relief.
"So then…we will reveal ourselves?" Fubuki asked him with his eyebrow raised.
Izuma nodded. "Yes, we will. There is no point in hiding our identities, they will find out sooner or later."
"But…" Noto interjected. "Isn't there something called a time paradox or something like that? I'm a little afraid about what might happen to us if they know who we truly are..."
"If you're worrying about our parents knowing who we are, there is nothing to worry about. Mirai has assured us that while her quirk keeps us in here, the future will not change. We only have to focus on our mission here, the longer we hide our identities, the more troublesome it will get. I plan to handle this using the most direct method, got it?"
Everyone nodded at his words, and they prepared to set off.
"Ne ne," The little girl called Mio tugged at her older sister Guren's sleeve. "Are we going to see momma and papa soon?"
"That's right sweetie." The black/red haired girl assured her with a smile. "Soon. Be patient okay?"
"hmmm…okay"
Izuma took one final look at the group before preparing to lead them through the forest. "Let's do this team!"
""""OHH!"""""
"WE'LL KILL THEM ALL!" Hanabi roared.

UA School Class 1-A:
"We'll be going out of the classroom today." Aizawa Shouta announced with his usual bored expression.
It was a normal day for the students of Class A today, but on one could expect that they would be conducting an outdoor lesson today. Upon hearing the announcement made by Aizawa sensei, the entire class began to talk amongst themselves.
"An outdoor exercise?" Kirishima questioned.
"You mean another practical lesson?" Kaminari asked with a tired expression.
"Moh…are you serious!?" Ashido Mina complained while scratching her head. "Right after the cultural festival!?"
"If you kids just quiet down for a moment, I would explain to you." Aizawa stated with a hint of annoyance in his voice, causing the entire class to quieten down.
"Authorities have been tracking a terrorist group known as 'Mad Dog' for six months, and have finally pinpointed their base of operations in a abandoned industrial warehouse at the west side of Musutafu City." Aizawa explained as the projected showed the class a map zooming in on the said location.
"Pro heroes Deatharms, and the team consisting of Mount Lady, Kamui Woods, and Edgeshot will be assisting in the capture of its core 4 members, and any other personnel in the area…"
"Sensei!" Iida Tenya stood up suddenly with his prominent hand gestures. "How would we be assisting this operation?"
"We're assisting them?" Shoji, the tentacle arm quirk user echoed.
"If you let me, I'll explain to all of you, don't get so excited." Aizawa replied with his lethargic voice. "Class A would be guarding the perimeter of the industrial sector to prevent any suspicious personnel from getting in, or out."
"So in other words, we will be doing nothing while the terrorist group is captured?" Mineta, the pop-off quirk user, asked with a bored expression. This earned him a slight glare from the Erasure quirk teacher, causing him to shiver and shrink back to his seat.
"Would this exercise's purpose be to improve our surveillance, while giving us exposure to joint operations with the civil defense forces Aizawa-sensei?" Momo, the black-haired creation-quirk user raised her hand politely and asked, making everyone stare at the top student.
"That's correct Yaoyozoru. While the main focus of this exercise is to introduce you all to surveillance operations, you are to be vigilant and report any suspicious movement or person in the area you are designated to guard. As you might guess, the enemy may be using a quirk which allows him to slip past our capture team, and you may end up encountering him or her. It would be your job to report your sightings and request for back-up immediately, without taking action on your own."
Aizawa emphasized on the last portion and redirected his gaze at a certain destructive Explosion-quirk user.
"What!?" Bakugo grumbled, much to his classmates snickering.
"As such, I have been instructed by Principal Nezu to brief you all on the priority targets for this mission." Aizawa continued, but now with a more serious tone. "This is an actual mission, so you all better take this seriously. Is that clear?"
"HAI! SENSEI!"
"This is going to be exciting isn't it Deku-kun!?" Uraraka Ochako nudged Midoriya Izuku beside her.
"Yeah…" Izuku told the brown-haired girl beside her, who nodded with a smile.
"Fun huh…" Eraserhead sighed. "Well then, let's get to it."

The leader watched the tall, grand glass building as he stood from afar. His trimmed bushy green hair wavering in the wind as he took in this nostalgic view.
Along the way, Izuma has seen portions of Musutafu City, and needless to say, memories were already causing him to sigh in resignation.
"Dammit!" He stated as he wiped the tiny drops of water starting to form by his tear ducts. "I'm already getting homesick…"
"Boss?"
Izuma turned around and saw a familiar white/black hair boy waving at him. "The entire class has begun to board the bus. We have been able to identify every single class 1-A hero students on it, the notebook was right. All that's left is to confirm the location they are headed to."
"Good work." Izuma said to Fubuki. "Prepare to tail them, is everyone ready?"
"We're always ready." Fubuki smiled and stepped aside, letting Izuma see the entire team primed and ready, smiling at their leader. No longer were they wearing tattered cloaks to hide their identities, but their full hero costumes, basking in the morning sun with their myriad of colours.
The leader walked off together with them , but not before taking one last look at the school building.
"We'll meet all of you soon enough…mom…and dad."
.
The two groups of young heroes, were about to cross paths. Little did they know, their encounter was the beginning of a brand new adventure.
