Barry's eyes widened upon hearing Weather Wizards words. He could feel his heart sink as his fists tightened.

"You're different." said Barry, "Where's your wand?"

"Wand?" said Mineta, "What? Was he a magician?"

"No, it was a gadget." said Barry, "It let him control his own localized version of a weather system. He could call down lightning or hail or any kind of natural disaster. He used it because he was quirkless."

"But he doesn't appear to have it on hand." said Iida.

"You kids catch on fast." said Weather Wizard, still levitating in the air, "Flash, you remember the particle accelerator?"

Barry's eyes widened, "The dark matter wave, it gave the Rogue's powers!"

"Look at you, oh Bright one." said Weather Wizard, "You've figured out how I'm gonna take you apart!"

Barry stood his ground.

The rest of the Rogues, they must be here too. Looking for me to boot. They might try to hurt the others in order to figure out my location.

"Not if we can help it!" shouted Tiger, making his hands into a fist, "You won't succeed this day, foul villain!"

"Barry, don't fight him, we have this!" said Mandalay.

"I'll take them back to the lodge!" said Jay, "Be quick kids!"

"Come and try!" shouted Weather Wizard, lobbing another lightning bolt at Barry. Since he saw it coming, Barry leaped back, avoiding the blast.

"Barry!" said Midoriya, running up behind Barry, "Something's wrong!"

"What?!" said Barry, "Do you think there are other villains?"

"I do!" said Midoriya, "I'm worried about Kota!"

Barry's eyes widened, "Wally left to bring him food. They might be in danger!"

Midoriya nodded, "You're the fastest one here. If we split off, we can get them to safety quick."

Barry nodded, "You're right, we need to make sure everyone's safe. I'll tell Jay."

As Mandalay and Tiger attacked the villains, Jay organized the students into a line.

"Alright!" said Jay, "Let's get back to the lodge!"

"Jay!" said Barry, sliding to a stop, "Kota and Wally are still out there, Midoriya and I are going to take them to safety!"

Jay turned to Barry, "No way, it's too dangerous and you're just a student. Tell me where they are and I'll get them!"

"Not to sound like a jerk," said Barry, "But I'll get there faster and directions are hard to give in the forest."

Jay looked hesitant.

"Please Jay," said Barry, "trust me."

Jay sighed, "Be safe Barry. Don't you dare get hurt."

"Will do!" said Barry, determined. Barry raced back to Midoriya, grabbing him.

"We're clear." said Barry, "Hold on tight!"

Midoriya nodded as Barry whisked them both away using his super speed.


Captain Boomerang encircled Uraraka and Tsuyu, sizing them up while tossing the boomerang up in the air.

"C-Captain Boomerang?" said Uraraka, "Isn't he in jail?"

"Yeah, my dad is in jail." said Captain Boomerang, "And someone has to pay for it!"

"He was your father?!" said Tsuyu, "That must have been hard."

"Not really, he was kind to me." said Captain Boomerang, "I won't extend that feeling to the Flash."

"So that's what you're after." said Tsuyu, "Revenge."

"Yup, simple as that." said Captain Boomerang, "You two are probably in his class, so I'll ask you, where is he?"

"We won't tell you." said Uraraka, "Not in a million years!"

"Ok," said Captain Boomerang, "I asked nicely, but she won't."

"She?" said Tsuyu, only to hear wicked giggling from behind her in the trees. Suddenly, a figure leaped out of the bushes, brandishing a massive knife.

"BLEED!" shouted the figure!


"I'm not the only one finding this awkward, Right?" said Derek.

"Derek, you'll make a great hero someday." said Kendo, "But making light of a situation like this is no making it any better."

Kendo trudged through the forest, one arm over her mouth while the other enlarged hand held both Honenuki and Derek.

"I'm just saying," said Derek, "Getting squeezed by your sweaty hand is wrong in all the worst and best ways."

Kendo blushed, "The gas is making you a little crazy."

"Maybe, or is it your beautiful eyes." said Derek.

"You can't see my eyes." said Kendo.

"I don't need to," said Derek, "I just need to think about them."

Kendo blushed more, tightening her fist.

"Stop squeezing so tight!" said Derek, "It's getting hard to breath."

"Unless you wanna breathe the gas and fall unconscious, I'll keep my hand tight thank you very much." said Kendo.

"Kendo!" said a new voice.

Kendo turned to find two of her classmates emerge from the brush. Tetsutetsu walked over to her while carrying Ibara. They both wore gas masks.

"Tetsutetsu! Ibara!" said Kendo, "Where did you get the masks?!"

"Class 1-A's Yaoyorozu made it for us as we were passing by!" said Tetsutetsu, "Awase is leading her to the lodge!"

Tetsutetsu turned around, showing Kendo the gas masks on his belt, "Here, take some!"

"Thank god!" said Kendo, dropping Derek and Honenuki to grab a mask. Slipping it on, Kendo passed a mask to Derek, who began to cough heavily again. Grabbing his mask, Derek jammed it onto his face, breathing in relief at the clean air.

"Oh man," said Derek, "Clean air at last!"

"Good, now let's get back to camp." said Kendo.

"No way!" said Tetsutetsu, "You guys take our classmates back to camp, I'm gonna fight!"

"What?!" said Derek, "But we shouldn't engage, these guys are seasoned villains as far as I can tell, I don't want us to bite off more than we can chew!"

"Derek's right." said Kendo, "We can't fight them, it's against the rules as well!"

Tetsutetsu stared at Kendo and Derek, "Listen, I know you both take part in knocking Monoma down whenever he puts Class 1-A down, but he's got a point. We passed the same tests, yet they're held up higher than us. Why, because they were confronted by Crisis'!"

"What?!" said Derek.

"They've taken every challenge thrown at them and turned them into opportunities, why shouldn't we be doing the same?" said Tetsutetsu, "So don't try to stop me, because I'm Tetsutetsu of the hero course and if I don't stand up for this, I don't know who I am anymore."

Kendo could only stare at Tetsutetsu while Derek sighed, walking over to Ibara and Honenuki's bodies.

"Y-You're right Tetsutetsu," said Kendo, "We should take this opportunity to take the fight to the villains."

Tetsutetsu nodded, "Right on!"

Kendo turned to Derek, "Derek, take the others back to the-"

Kendo paused when she saw Derek kneeling and closing a rift, Honenuki, and Ibara nowhere to be seen. Standing up, Derek walked over to Kendo and Tetsutetsu, "They're safe, there's no way I'm being left behind on this one."

Kendo and Tetsutetsu smiled underneath the mask as Derek cracked his knuckles, "Lead the way, leadhead."


Fire crackled from Heatwave's fingertips as he began to blow fire around the classroom, intimidating the students.

"C'mon, where's the Flash?!" said Heatwave, "Spill it!"

Aizawa stepped forward, activating his quirk, "I'll give you 5 seconds to surrender."

"Hah!" said Heatwave, "At least someone spoke up! Time to die!"

Heatwave raised his hand, blasting a ball of flame directly at Aizawa. Aizawa's eyes widened as he leaped out of the way.

"Careful Aizawa!" said Vlad, jumping in, "Use your quirk!"

"I did!" said Aizawa, "It didn't affect him. He might be a nomu!"

"I've never seen a nomu speak!" said Vlad.

"He's a villain from a group called the rogues!" said Mina, "Barry and I fought them during our work-study together, but he used a weapon! He never had a quirk!"

"Well guess what sister, I do now!" said Heatwave, firing another volley of blasts. The fireballs go everywhere, forcing everyone in the room to dive for cover. Holes in the wall are made as Heatwave advances.

"None of you are gonna squeal?" said Heatwave, "Then I guess it's best just to cook ya!"

"Not on my watch!" said Vlad, leaping at Heatwave from the side. Heatwave raised his hand to burn Vlad, but he was too fast, grabbing Heatwave's arm and pointing it upward, resulting in a stream of flame blowing a hole in the ceiling. Pinning Heatwave to the ground, Vlad turned to the students, "Is everyone alright?"

"I'm good!" said Kirishima, "Man, this guy is scary, did you really fight him Mina?"

"Yeah, he is pretty intimidating." said Mina, "But we got him!"

"Heh, nice to know I'm feared." said Heatwave.

"Quiet you!" said Vlad, pushing Heatwaves head down, "It was foolish for you to come alone."

Heatwave smirked, "Who said I came alone?"

"Yippee!" said a voice from above.

A man dressed in outrageous clothing dropped through the hole in the ceiling, kicking Vlad off of Heatwave before grabbing Monoma and pressing a razor sharp jack against his neck.

"GAH!" screamed Monoma.

"Guess who's back!" said the man.

"Trickster!" said Mina, "Not you too?!"

"Yes!" said Trickster, "I'm here too! And so are the rest of the rogues, the ones who are alive anyway!"

"Alive?" said Aizawa, "Did some of you die?"

"Yeah, and it's the Flash's fault!" said Heatwave, "Lisa and Scudder are dead because the little runt put up a fight."

Mina's eyes widened, "W-Wait, they're dead?!"

"Mina," said Kirishima, "What is he talking about?!"

"I-I don't know!" said Mina, "All I know is we have to make sure they don't hurt anyone, even Monoma!"

"Hah!" said Monoma, "I'll just use my Copy to escape!"

Monoma strained his body, trying to use some sort of quirk that he would have copied. However, nothing happens, and all he does is give himself a headache.

"I don't know what copy is." said Trickster, "But it's hard when you have no quirk to copy."

Monoma gulped as Heatwave walked forward, "Last chance, Where is the Flash?!"

"Go to hell!" said Kirishima.

Heatwave raised his hands, "YOU FIRST!"


As the smoke rose and the forest fire raged on, Wally and Kota watched from their little spot high above the valley.

"Oh man," said Wally, "this looks bad."

Kota couldn't speak, he was frozen in fear.

Wally looked at Kota, reading the terrified look on his face, "Hey, why don't we get back to the lodge, it's safe there."

Grabbing Kota, Wally began to lead him towards the path.

*Thud!*

A massive cloaked figure landed in front of Wally and Kota, casting a menacingly large shadow over both of them.

"I came up here for the view and what do I find?" said the figure, clearly a man, "Two faces that aren't on the list."

Wally's heart jumped out of his chest as he grabbed Kota and put himself between the two of them, "Kota, stay behind me!"

"That's a slick hat you got there kid." said the man, eyeing Kota's hat, "Why don'tcha trade it with me for this lame mask. I'm new to the operation so I have to wear this dumb toy."

Wally gulped, "Uh, counteroffer! I give you my shirt, you can do whatever you want with the mask, and you let us go. Deal?"

"Heh, you idiot!" said the man, "I'm joking, I'm actually gonna paint the cliffside with your body!"

Wally's eyes widened, "Kota, RUN!"

Wally broke out into a sprint away from the man, pulling Kota along with him. The man chuckled to himself before leaping after them, pulling off the mask to reveal a man with a heavily scarred eye.

That face!

Wally recognized the man all too well, for he was the one who killed Kota's parents. The man raised his fist, ready to pulverize both of them. Wally closed his eyes, hoping Kota was out of the way.

*Woosh!*

A flash of lightning yellow and green lightning fills the air as Barry and Midoriya leap out of the trees, grabbing Wally and Kota respectively before taking them out of range of the man's monstrous attack.

*BOOM*

The man slams his fist into the ground, creating a shockwave that sends Midoriya and Kota towards the edge of the cliff while Barry and Wally are sent towards the woods.

"Guh!" groaned Barry, holding Wally in his arms, "Are you ok Wally?"

Wally coughed, getting dust out of his throat, "I'm fine, is Kota ok?"

Barry got on his feet and looked past the villain, spotting Midoriya getting in front of Kota.

"He is, but not for long!" said Barry, "Stay here, I'm gonna help Midoriya!"

As the villain approached Midoriya, Barry leaped on his back, rapidly punching him in the back of the skull. Instead of hurting him, all it seemed to do was annoy him, evidenced by how nonchalantly the villain grabbed Barry off his back.

"Quit screwing around!" said the villain, tossing Barry back towards the woods.

"Barry!" said Midoriya, "Take Wally to safety!"

"Not without you!" shouted Barry, "I just have to-"

*CRACK!*

Barry is startled when the sound of ice cracking becomes audible from behind. Looking back, Barry sees that a wall of ice had formed, blocking him from escaping.

"What the hell?!" said Barry.

It was then that Wally pointed his finger behind Barry, "Look out!"

Barry turned back just in time to catch a fist encased in ice to the jaw, making a satisfying *KRAK* when it landed. Hitting the ground like a sack of potatoes, Barry was dazed, tasting blood in his mouth.

"You're in for a world of hurt Flash." said a familiar voice.

Barry looked up, his eyes landing on Captain Cold. His costume was different, as he ripped off the sleeves and frost ran all the way up his arms.

"You know what they say." said Captain Cold, cracking his knuckles "Revenge is a dish best served COLD!"


Confession time, I almost didn't make this chapter because it turns out my cat Goyo has intestinal Parasites. It's nothing life-threatening or even all that dangerous, but he had a tummy ache and didn't want to eat. I'm treating him now so he'll go back to being a happy boi.

Anyway, This is more of a transitive chapter that sets stuff up, Big fights are coming!
