(I don't own Boku no Hero Academia or its characters, only this fanfiction's plot)
Iida took all of five seconds to mentally thank Aizawa from the bottom of his heart before kicking the creepy hand-fucker in the nuts. Engines on.
"Agh! You little-"
Iida wasted no time in getting his ass out of vaporizing range and over towards Aizawa, who was trying to sit up.
"Sir, are you-"
"Fine." Said the man with two broken arms. "When we get back-"
"I know, sir. We'll all be in big trouble for rescuing you." Iida said, helping Aizawa up.
Looking over he saw red tentacles wrapping up and distracting the raging monster while Uraraka started trying to sit up. The Hand-Fucker was also moving again.
Shit.
"We have to get to the entrance, there's a villain there that has a warp quirk-"
Said villain chose that moment to make an appearance. "I'm afraid that we're done here, one of the students managed to escape- What's going on?"
Shigaraki gave a pained grunt as he met his living pickup-trucks eyes and gave him a look that spoke of the worst kinds of torture
"We're not going anywhere until that brat-" He pointed at Iida, "-Is on the business end of an evil handshake!"
"Uh sir, I don't know what happened-" But Kurogiri had very accurate guesses "-But I don't think you're appreciating our current situation."
"I am very aware of what is and is not important right now Kurogiri!"
As the Hand-fucker and Void-with-eyes started arguing about exactly who would and who wouldn't be murdered today Iida took the opportunity to get very not-fucking-there.
Picking Aizawa up (who complained a lot less than Iida would have thought he would) Iida ignited his Engine's and made for the entrance.
"Oh no you don't!" Hand-Fucker shouted as he stood up and started wobbling after Iida who (unfortunately for Shigaraki) was well on his way to not-being-there.
Unfortunately for Iida, Shigaraki had a personal warp gate.
Iida ducked just in time to avoid running headlong into Hand-Fucker's outstretched fingers and skidded to a halt as he spun around.
Well. At least his classmates could escape now.
Midoriya slapped the monster in the face for the upteenth time and dodged it's really fast and judging by the concrete, really strong arms.
It wasn't like he had to dodge. His liquified form was pretty smash-proof as it was bone and gutless; but darting around a) kept it's attention on him rather than Uraraka, and b) gave him more opportunity to knock this thing on its ass.
Uraraka thankfully got back on her feet and charged back in, and Iida was getting Aizawa away. Maybe they could really-
"Oh no you don't!"
Midoriya wished he had a head to slammed into the ground. He should have known better than to test the universe with something as sacrilegious as optimism.
Iida barely fucking dodged that and the guy was right behind him and Iida wasn't running fast enough-
The monster screamed and made another grab for Uraraka.
Whipping out like a lasso Midoriya clench his red blood cells together like a muscle and pulled. Giving Uraraka enough space to roll away.
Slinking back, he readied himself by her side.
Like this he could see the whole battlefield; from Iida running away from the hand villain who was mysteriously not using the warping friend to the explosions going off in the Rock Slide Zone.
...They were probably fine.
"I don't think I'll be able to get in close while he's moving like that, any ideas?"
Midoriya raised himself in a way he hoped was reminiscent of a helpless shrug. He couldn't talk like this, after all.
"Right." Uraraka took her bashed up helmet off and threw it at that thing's brain as she jumped out of the way of it's latest charge. Leaving Midoriya to trip up its legs so it'd fall over. "Try to hold it!"
Uraraka reached for its leg while it was on the ground and all was well until Aizawa's hair went down..
..And a portal opened up behind her head.
Suddenly, holding this thing was not Midoriya's most important job and he didn't give another thought to abandoning it.
Shigaraki touched him just as Uraraka touched Noumu.
Several things happened all at once; Noumu was suddenly an airborne humanoid being of mass murder, Midoriya was solid as the day he was born, and Aizawa got a good look at the Warp villain and who subsequently dumped Handy Man on top of them both.
Ducking under a furious kick from the very angry flying monster Midoriya forgot all pretenses of modesty as he focused his energy into keeping McMelty-finger's hands away from his skin.
This wasn't as easy as it should have been, considering the Hand-Villain relative lack of upper body strength. He was fucking relentless and Midoriya couldn't liquify without him getting his fingers on Uraraka-
Who was trapped under them. Right.
Checking the relative position of the Sky Monster Midoriya kneed the guy in the stomach and shoved him back. Only then did he appreciate he was both naked and not covered in blood for a change.
"You've- You've-" Shigaraki sputtered indignantly as he saw his poor, currently helpless perfect creature soaring ever slowly towards the sun. "You cheated! Cheaters all of you! You and that- that Noumu Theif!"
Shifting infront of Uraraka, Midoriya tried to stay upright, blinking away the fuzzy spots in his vision. Where had Iida dropped his belt..?
"I'll kill you! Then I'll slowly take that no good Four-eyed Bastard apart and use Noumu to kill the rest of your classmates."
"What classmates?" Uraraka asked innocently, subtly leaning Midoriya into her side. "Do you have a villain with an Invisibility quirk nearby?"
"What?" Shigaraki whipped around and only realized his mistake a second before a fuck-ton of ice hit him in the face.
"One of your poorly trained thugs told me you think you can kill All Might." Todoroki let out a breath of cold air as he walked over, eyes flickering over towards the Sky Monster. "I can see I was right. You delinquents overestimated yourself and got your asses handed to you by a bunch of children."
Kicking one of the hands that'd fallen off the guy, Uraraka happily lead Midoriya out of kicking-range and over towards their super-powerful classmate. "Todoroki! I'm so glad you're okay!"
"I see you've handled yourselves." He nodded, glancing downwards. "What happened to Shimura's clothes?"
Midoriya quickly covered himself and became bright red. Squeaking out, "Quirk drawback. Why I wear the suit."
For the first time that day he was relieved that most of his classmates were scattered around the USJ. As selfish as it was.
"What did you call him?" The ice-encased villain asked, fighting against Todoroki who for every inch of ice he destroyed replaced it with several more.
Todoroki glanced back up at him, brow forwarding. "Shimura, not that it matters where you're going."
Suddenly the ice cracked as the man started fighting hysterically.
"You're lying!" He shouted, red eyes wide. "You cheating, evil Noumu killing brats!"
Midoriya frowned, forgetting his embarrassment for a moment. "He's not lying, my name is Toku Shimura."
"Toki is dead!" The man shouted, chapped lips trembling with something. "Murdered! Like everyone else! Everyone who let father get away with it, who let him breathe-"
Midoriya felt like he'd just been sucker-punched. His eyes flickered across not-quite-white hair and pale skin and a face that in just a few years would be his own.
That's when the Warp Villain appeared behind his Frozen companion. "I think it's it's time we make our retreat."
"No! No, not until I-"
Shigaraki didn't get a chance to finished that as he was sucked in and deposited on the barroom floor.
"Kurogiri you hapless foolish-"
"Our men were down and Noumu was at least sixty feet in the air. Do you really think we could have won at that point?"
"I could have taken down that Noumu Theif and Imposter before we left!"
"You are still frozen solid."
Shigaraki silently simmered as the television flickered on.
"Tomura, how did it go?"
"Master, you were so wrong! All Might wasn't even there and those brats took out Noumu all by themselves!"
"What?" The Doctor yelped, "Impossible! He's perfect, indestructible-"
"-But not unfloatable, unfortunately." Kurogiri sighed. "Then another brat froze Shigaraki. We had no choice but to retreat."
"This is a travesty, and after all that time we spent making him capable of defeating All Might."
"I suppose it can't be helped, unfortunately."
"They cheated..." Shigaraki grounded out, "That Four-eyed Bastard fought dirty and that girl barely touched Noumu before making him fly away!"
"It's no matter," His Master soothed. "At least this happened under that disposable name 'League of Villains'."
"There's.. There's something else."
"Oh?"
"A guy got in the way when I tried to take the Noumu Thief out." Fist clenching, Shigaraki shook with rage. "He.. He didn't disintegrate when I touched him. He claimed to be my brother!"
"..That is odd."
"If it weren't for that Imposter I'd have killed that girl. We wouldn't have lost if he hadn't gotten in the way!"
"Don't fret, Tomura. It was not futile; we have learned much. Take all the time you need to regather your elite." His Master informed him, "The world will learn to fear you, Tomura Shigaraki."
I loved writing this chapter so much :D I'm so glad I decided to scramble the original fight scene, I hope you like this!
Also, I uploaded a new fic called "Solar Phases" today. It's an A:TLA fic about Yue and Zuko respectively realizing how fucked their own cultures are and generally having a good time giving their dad's the middle finger
Let me know what you think!
