Chapter 46
School Battleground

When some Brainiac robots broke into Class 1-A's dormitory, Tenya told everyone to keep calm and not do anything reckless, but Katsuki didn't listen to him and instead jumped at the robots with a look of rage and also excitement on his face. He was eager to get a piece of them.

Slamming his hand into the chest of one of the robots, Katsuki generated an explosion that actually blew away that robot. The other robots turned to look at him, but before they could do anything, he slammed his palms into them to blast them away as well. "What? Is that all? I expect more from you and just worthless tin cans!" he said to the fallen robots.

The robots weren't destroyed, and one of them released a wire from its hand at him. Katsuki brought up his arm in defense, and the wire wrapped around that body part before zapping him with electricity. Seeing his friend in danger, Izuku didn't think twice and lunged at the robot, punching it hard in the head with a punch powered by his Quirk. He was actually able to decapitate the robot with a single punch, destroying it. He then turned to Katsuki, who was removing the wire from his arm, and asked him, "Kacchan! Are you all...?"

"I didn't need your help!" interrupted the frustrated Katsuki.

The other robots stood back up and were going to fire at the students with their arm cannons, only to be taken out by them. Shouto released a large amount of ice in the direction of a robot, freezing it from head to toe completely. Jaime, suited up as Blue Beetle, fired energy blasts rapidly at a robot until it was blown up. Beast Boy changed into a buffalo and rammed the remaining robot into a wall before changing into a gorilla to punch its head over and over until it was destroyed. Changing back to normal, Beast Boy said, "And that's that!"

Everyone then looked out the window to see that more robots had arrived, thus making things harder for the heroes out there. "All right, let's go out there and help them!" said Starfire as she floated out the window. She then looked back at the students. "Given that you students still aren't exactly the most experienced with this sort of thing, I won't force you to fight, but be careful and do your best to defend yourself and your dorm! Leave everything out there to us!"

"All right! Time for some action!" said Kid Flash with enthusiasm.

The young heroes began to leave the room, and Ochako said to them, "Please be careful out there!"

"I'm sorry that we couldn't be of more help, as this is indeed a situation we have never been in before," Tenya said to them.

"You don't have to worry about us! We can defend ourselves! Please go and do what you must!" Izuku told them.

"Don't worry about that! We're more than capable of defending ourselves!" Miss Martian assured them.

"I'm not staying in here! I'm going out there to get in on some action!" said Katsuki. Almost as soon as he said that, a few more Brainiac robots suddenly burst through the wall, much to everyone's surprise.

"Hey, cheer up," Blue Beetle told him while pointing at those robots. "Those folks won't leave you alone.

"Surrender at once, or we will use force again you," said one of the robots while pointing his arm cannon at the students, which made some of them scared and nervous.

"Like hell I will!" shouted Katsuki as he lunged at that robot at such a speed that the latter couldn't react in time and was blown back by an explosion.

Another robot tried to shoot Katsuki, but Eijiro, with his body hardened, tackled it hard and knocked it onto the floor. "Don't worry about us! We can deal with these! You guys go out there and do your thing!" Eijiro told the young heroes.

"All right! Be careful!" replied Miss Martian, and then her group rushed out of the place as fast as they could.

The streets were in chaos as the Justice League members and the pro heroes battled the robots sent by Brainiac. Other than the humanoid robots built in Brainiac's likeness, there were also a larger kind in the form of four-legged spider-like machines that fired lasers and missiles equipped on their bodies.

As one rampaged through the streets, Green Arrow fired exploding arrows at its side from atop a building, trying to destroy its weapons. One of its laser guns aimed at him and was about to fire when Hawk attacked it by firing feathers from his wings that sliced it off cleanly.

Supergirl then charged at the mech from the front, going through it and out of the other side. Just like that, she was able to destroy it. Hawk was impressed by what he saw, but to Green Arrow, this was nothing new.

Supergirl then turned to look at Brainiac's massive spaceship flying through the air. Thinking that it would be faster to go for the source, she flew straight at it, hoping to charge straight into it. However, when she got close, she struck an invisible force field that appeared for a split second and bounced off it.

She then punched the force field as hard as she could, but was unable to destroy it. "Argh! I hate this guy and his tech!" she angrily growled.

"Can't we just tell Cyborg to warp us all in there?" Green Arrow called out to her.

"Last I heard, it's not possible," Supergirl told him. "Brainiac's got some method of stopping people from using Boom Tubes to enter his ship."

"You said you fought and beat that Brainiac guy before. How did you do it again?" Hawk asked Green Arrow.

"The details escape me..." replied Green Arrow.

Meanwhile, Cyborg had a holographic computer screen in front of himself, and he was busy "typing" away on it. Said screen showed a diagram of Brainiac's ship. As he was doing this, a robot approached him from the side to attack him. Without turning his head, Cyborg shot it away with an energy blast while still typing away using his other hand.

Batman, after destroying some robots with exploding Batarangs, approached him and asked, "Can you deactivate the force field?"

"It may take some time," replied Cyborg. "Brainiac's updated his software since last time, unsurprisingly, but I can still deactivate the force field with enough time. It won't stay down for long, however, as he will surely notice it and put it back on."

"As long as you can buy enough time for Superman to fly inside, that should do," Batman told him as he took out more Batarangs to fight more approaching robots.

All Might was doing a fine job destroying the robots. With his agility and strength, he was able to punch them all down in a single hit before they could do anything to him.

His impressive performance grabbed the attention of the robots, so they were all targeting him as if he was a valuable target that must be captured at all cost. Yet none of them were able to do anything against him.

All Might leaped at a spider mech that had just fired missiles in his direction, but with a blast of wind created from his punch, he sent the missiles flying back to the mech, followed by punching it directly in the front, causing the whole thing to fly back.

When he landed, All Might saw that robots had surrounded him. "Surrender at once," they said to him while pointing their arm cannons at him.

"Not today!" replied All Might before punching the pavement hard to whip up a shockwave of wind that caused the robots to fly back. Because they were not destroyed right away, he closed in on them and began tearing them apart.

After All Might had cleared away the robots in the surrounding area, he looked up to see Brainiac's ship flying in the sky. "I should get inside that ship and destroy it. Perhaps this will put an end to things," he thought. However, since he was unfamiliar with Brainiac, he figured that he should consult the Justice League first and learn more about the enemy from them before doing anything that would be considered reckless.

As he watched the spaceship move away, he noticed that it was heading in a particular direction. Wanting to make sure, he jumped onto the highest building closest to him and looked into the distance. He saw that U.A. was in that direction. He wasn't sure if the spaceship was purposely heading for U.A. or if it was just a coincidence, but just to be on the safe side, he decided to rush over to that school to make sure nothing happens to it.

Despite wanting to avoid engaging too many robots, Class 1-A still found themselves quite busy doing this, as an unexpectedly large amount of robots crashed into their dorm to attack them. It was safe to say that the building would cease to exist by the time this was over.

With a swing of her hand, Mina splashed a large amount of acid some robots, aiming for the faces and burning away their eyes. Kyouka then used her Quirk to released powerful blasts of sound to blow them away into a wall.

While the robots were still leaning against the wall, Ochako rushed by in front of them, making sure to touch each of them. "Tsuyu! Now!" she shouted at the frog girl.

The latter used her lengthy tongue to grab one of the robots and picked it up to swing them into the others, sending them all to one side of the room. Ochako had decreased the weights of the robots enough for Tsuyu to pick them up.

Most of the other students were doing a fine job defending themselves against the robots. For example, Rikidou consumed sugar to strengthen himself and smash the robots with his punches, Mashirao used his tail to knock them around, Minoru used his sticky balls to render the robots immobile by their feet so that others can beat them up, and more.

"There's no end to them!" said Mezou after sprouting extra arms to punch a robot to oblivion.

"Yeah, and I'm at my limit already..." cried Yuuga, who was down on his knees in pain, as he had overused his Quirk, thus giving him bowel problems.

Toru looked out the window and saw something that shocked her. "Um... Everyone...! I think we're having an even bigger problem...!" she said.

Those who were free looked out the window and were shocked to see that Brainiac's ship was now hovering above the school grounds. Outside on the ground, the heroes there were equally shocked to see this.

"What is Brainiac doing right above us?!" asked Kid Flash.

The ship stopped moving when it was directly above the field outside the school building, and from an opening on it, more robots flew out, this time somewhat different-looking ones, and headed for Class 1-A's dormitory. The students inside watched in shock as they moved away from the window, and the robots crashed into their room.

These robots were larger and taller and had cylinder-shaped bodies big enough to fit a person. Their heads still resembled Brainiac himself, however. The remaining robots in the room also stopped what they were doing and stood still, and the students were nervous about what would happen next.

"More of these scrap metals, eh? Good! I'll blow them all to pieces!" said Katsuki, sounding enthusiastic.

The newcomer robots looked around the room while making their eyes glow, almost as if they were scanning the place. One of them laid its eyes on Izuku and said, "Test subject detected. Proceeding to contain immediately." It's body then opened up, and wires shot out at such a speed that he was unable to response in time, binding the student by the waist and neck.

"DEKU!" Ochako gasped when she saw this. The other students were shocked as well.

"Let go!" cried Izuku as he tried to activate his Quirk to tear apart the wires, but for some reason, he couldn't do so. "What?! I can't activate my Quirk!" The robot then pulled him towards itself with a powerful force, trapping himself inside it's body. This shocked the other students even more.

"Oh no! It's got Midorya!" gasped Minoru.

"Hey you! Nobody picks on Deku without my permission!" shouted Katsuki angrily as he charged at the robot, but the latter lifted from the floor and flew backwards before he could get to it. The robot flew outside the dorm and headed back to the spaceship. "GET BACK HERE!"

Another robot turned its attention to Shouto and said, "Test subject detected. Proceeding to contain immediately." It tried to capture Shouto as well, but the latter was able to react in time and jump out of the incoming wires' way. He pressed his hand against the floor and sent forth ice that touched the robot's feet and began freezing its body.

While the robot was frozen and unable to move, Katsuki slammed his hands against it and generated explosions that blew it out the hole created on the wall. "Take that!" he angrily shouted.

All Might was jumping from building to building as fast as he could, trying to get to U.A. He could see that the spaceship had stopped over the school grounds and was therefore worried about what it was going to do. "Young heroes, please be all right! I'm on my way!" he said.

TO BE CONTINUED

Okay, this chapter got rushed out because I won't be home on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and therefore won't have time to work on this chapter, so I tried to finish this one as soon as possible to get it posted before the end of Thursday. As a result, the chapter ended rather abruptly. I apologize for this and will try to make up for things in the next chapter somehow.
