Tomura let out an impatient sigh as he wondered where Izuku was at and what was taking him so long to come back. It had been almost a week since the Hosu incident and there wasn't a trace of him. And since Kurogiri didn't know where Izuku was either he couldn't make a warp gate for him to go through.
Kurogiri was concerned for Izuku, hoping that he wasn't killed by Stain or got lost in Hosu. The winged nomu, the only surviving nomu from the incident came back to the league to get orders and they had it go back to Hosu to look for him and bring the boy back.
The winged nomu had a quirk that allowed it to see through buildings and also sense certain targets that it has been in a close proximity to, so finding Izuku likley wasn't going to be a problem for it.
The nomu soared through the skies of Hosu, looking for Izuku and Izuku only, not intending to cause havoc on the city since those weren't its orders.
The nomu searched for about five or so hours before coming up on Izuku who was sitting in an alleyway, eating someone's groceries.
Izuku heard a roar, looking up to see the winged nomu above him, flapping its large wings.
Izuku's eyes widened, finally there was a sense of hope! Izuku was finally getting out of Hosu and back to where he belonged, the league of villains.
Izuku called out to the nomu, a smile growing on his cut, bloody, dirty and bruised face.
The nomu swooped down and took Izuku by his shoulders, proceeding to fly Izuku back to the hideout.
Izuku let out a happy cheer as he was getting taken back to the hideout, excited to see Tomura and Kurogiri and tell them his good news.
The nomu arrived at the hideout about ten minutes later, letting Izuku down.
Izuku excitedly knocked on the door and Tomura answered.
"There you fucking are Deku! Where were you?"
Tomura asked angirly, a cold glare in his eyes.
"Sorry Tomura... I got lost at Hosu... But hey! I got stronger! I even killed some people!"
Izuku exclaimed, slightly suprising Tomura and Kurogiri.
"You? Kill someone? Bullshit..."
Tomura said, seeming a bit skeptical.
"I did! I mean... It took awhile and the only reasons i did was to get some food and because some others were giving me a hard time to say the least."
Izuku explained, a slightly more awkward but heartwarming smile gracing his messed up face.
"I'm sure there is a few news reports on at least the dead bodies!"
Izuku then said, seeming a bit off in Tomura's eyes. Usually Izuku wouldn't brag about anything, more or less killing people.
Izuku, to Tomura was just this humble, innocent, kind and considerate being who put others before him. Not.. Whatever Izuku was expressing currently.
"Whatever, just come inside and let Kurogiri heal your damn wounds."
Tomura said, turning around and walking inside the bar while also telling the winged nomu to go back to the hangar, where all the other nomus were.
The nomu did as it was told, flying away and back to the hangar as Izuku walked inside, sitting on a stool and getting his wounds treated by Kurogiri.
"So has anything happened when i was gone?"
Izuku asked, looking at Tomura mostly.
"Well... Yes, yesterday two people tried joining our league, they went by the names Dabi and Himiko Toga respectively."
Tomura explained, sitting at the counter, slumped over it.
"Apperantly they were inspired by Stain's speech or some bullshit..."
Tomura then added, peaking Izuku's intrest.
"Woah really? That is a real game changer!
There might be more influenced from his speech and more will join our forces!"
Izuku happily said with excitement in his tone.
"And then we'll be unstoppable!"
Izuku exclaimed, fists up to his chest to express his overwhelming excitement, ready to not only meet the new members of the league but he was still really happy to be back with the league, so he can show them what he can do.
"Yes, now shut up... You're gonna give me a headache."
Tomura complained with a slightly irritated look in his eyes.
"Y-yeah, sorry.."
Izuku awkwardly said, letting out a small chuckle and rubbing the back of his head, his hair sticking from the soda once splashed on his head.
"Hey has Giran come? I wanna talk with him about something, i... Want to change my arsenal a bit and see what i can do with different sets."
Izuku said, looking sort of serious.
"He's supposed to collect rent a little later today actually, you can ask him about the weapons then."
Kurogiri stated calmly as ever.
"Also, we found somewhere we can attack UA at."
Kurogiri then said, pushing the schedule further up the counter to give Izuku a better veiw.
"The forest training camp."
Kurogiri then said as Izuku started reading the text beside the picture of the area to see what it was about.
"Both class A and B will be present, along with Vlad King, Eraser Head and the ones who own the place and keep it safe, the Wild Wild Pussycats."
Izuku mumbled out loud.
"All Might isn't mentioned to be there, our goal is to kill All Might ain't it?"
Izuku then asked loud enough so the others could hear him.
"Yes, that is our main priority. But i read up on your notes, and asked Tomura about the sports festival and he mentioned this guy..."
Kurogiri stated as he slid a small picture of... Katsuki.
"Kacchan? What would we do with him?"
Izuku calmly asked, oblivious.
"He's got quite the temper, and quite the powerful quirk, maybe we can get him to join us."
Kurogiri explained.
"There is no way in hell that he's joining us... Sure, he's strong but he'd never cooperate with us. Though i don't see why we can't kidnap him though, i want to teach him a lesson..."
Izuku said, his voice sounding monotone and downright sinister given his previous, happy demeanour, his eyes showed evil intent, his mind being set on capturing Katsuki now.
"Lets kill a few other students too, just to strike fear into the hearts of the pros there and the wannabe heroes of the next generation."
Tomura suggested with an equally cold voice.
"Sounds good."
Izuku said, giving a small nod.
"So do you know anything about Toga or Dabi?"
Izuku then asked, looking over at Tomura, his cold expression and voice going away.
"Well aside from the fact that they were inspired by Stain, and Toga wants to kill him or something, no..."
Tomura said.
"Oh, maybe i can ask about them when i see them! Maybe we can also go to the forest training camp to see what they can do!"
Izuku suggested, a smile on his face.
"Whatever..."
Tomura spoke, then demanding water from Kurogiri.
Timeskip
A few hours later there was a knock at the door, it was Giran.
Izuku eagerly walked over with a wide smile on his face as he opened the door, looking up and seeing Giran who had a smirk on his face.
"I'm here for the rent."
Giran said, letting himself in, Tomura grumbled and handed him the money.
Giran took some time to count the money before putting it in his pants pocket, a satisfied look on his face.
"Thank you, I'll be going now."
Giran announced, keeping the confrontation short and simple.
"Wait! Is it possible you can get me a different arsenal of weapons? I kinda want to see what else i would be effective with in exchange for the weapons i have now!"
Izuku exclaimed, getting Giran's attention as he was about to walk out the door.
"Alrighty then, sure. Just give me the weapons you don't want and I'll bring the other weapons over so you can choose."
Giran said, Izuku not hesitating to give his throwing knives and folding knives away.
Giran took the weapons and walked out the door fully, closing it behind him.
In a few hours, Giran came back with the same weapon collection Izuku could choose from, the guns, knives and other swords.
Izuku looked at the weapons thoroughly.
"Why don't you choose a gun Deku?"
Tomura asked.
"Well i don't want to bring too much attention to myself. Sure guns may be stronger against most people, but they have a limmit as to how many times they can be used, unlike melee weapons which have no ammo and could be used indefinitely unless broken, and they don't bring too much attention to me so i don't risk giving where i am away if I'm hiding somewhere, and it doesn't seem like Giran has any silencers for the guns so that isn't open for debate."
Izuku softly explained to Tomura as he kept looking at the weapons.
Izuku smiled and grabbed one more sword, then taking more time to think, he wanted ranged weapons so he could be more versatile but there wasn't too much to choose from aside from the throwing knives.
"Hmm... Maybe i won't need range, i'm not great at throwing knives and plus, i am quick enough to close the distance between me and my opponent likley, and two swords are better than one so I'll be more effective... But there is still a small likleyhood that i won't be able to close the distance if my oponent is either too fast or too far away... Let's see... Maybe i can just close in using the environment around me, and then attack? But what if that doesn't work? And what if i don't land a fatal cut that i may want to land? There has to be something!"
Izuku thought, looking a bit stressed.
"Maybe... A type of tranquilizer that i have inside the sheaths for my swords that'll take my opponent out!"
Izuku then thought.
"Hey Giran! Is it possible you can give me some tranquilizers? I want to use them to put on the blades of my swords so i can immobolize my opponents long enough for me to get better blows!"
Izuku asked excitedly as he held his new sword in his hand.
"Alright, I'll be back tomarrow morning, is there anything else you need?"
Giran asked in a slightly passive agressive manner.
"I know it isn't really nessasery but... I want a jacket or coat."
Izuku said.
Giran nodded and left, leaving Izuku with both swords.
Izuku took his vest off, revealing the boy's undershirt which was a black tank top.
"If we're attacking at night, I'm going to need at least something to help keep me warm while also hidden in the dark."
Izuku said with a smile as he tossed the vest away with ease, the vest hitting the floor hard and making a loud thudding sound.
The next morning rolled around and there was a knock at the door which woke Izuku up.
He rushed to the door and opened it, seeing Giran with the extra clothing and assortment of tranquilizers.
He showed them to Izuku and Izuku picked one of the better tranquilizers in the assortment, though it wasn't the best.
Izuku put some of the tranquilizer in both sheathes of the swords he owned, then putting his swords back in again as they were holstered on his back, making a cross.
Izuku then picked out a black trench coat, hanging it over his shoulders.
"Wow this new look really suits me huh?"
Izuku said with excitement as he looked down at the coat.
"So did you also get a coat for fashion purposes?"
Tomura asked as he held his coffee.
"Eheh.. Sorta."
Izuku said, letting out an embarrassed laugh.
"Heh... You know, there is actually a group of people influenced by Stain's ideology that i found while searching online, they're the Vangaurd Action Squad."
Giran then said with a smile, intresting everyone.
"More villains? Do you think they will join us?!"
Izuku excitedly asked Giran.
"Well it isn't guaranteed that they would join you, but i thought I'd mention that in case you wanted to shoot your shot with them."
Giran then said before walking over to the door and opening it.
"Well Tomura, shall we contact them?"
Izuku kindly asked with a smile on his face as Giran walked out and shut the door behind him.
"Whatever, it'll make us stronger... Go do it for me Deku."
Tomura said, waving Izuku off. Izuku walked away and into Tomura's room, he started to search for the Vanguard Action Squad's website, assuming they would have one which Izuku assumed from Giran's wording.
The website didn't look too special, there was some simple imformation, including what their goal is and also their contact info.
Izuku went to contact them, sending the unknown owner of the site a message saying that he was part of a seperate organization and was thinking of working together to achieve eachother's goals.
It didn't take too long to get a response, asking what they had in mind and where they would meet up.
Izuku said that they would discuss further details at the location which Izuku said would be the bar.
They then said they would be on their way as soon as possible.
Izuku got out of Tomura's room, looking really happy.
"Tomura guess what! They said yes!"
Izuku happily said.
"Great... So do we get to meet them first?"
Tomura asked and Izuku nodded yes.
"Okay and where...?"
Tomura then asked.
"Here."
Izuku simply replied, tilting his head and wondering why it mattered to him.
"You dumbass... That's like fitting a blue whale into an apartment room, it's going to be cramped in here."
Tomura said, sounding rather annoyed with Izuku's decision to invite them to the bar.
"D-don't worry I'm sure it'll be fine!"
Izuku said, rubbing the back of his head.
About thirty minutes later, there was a knock at the door.
Izuku walked over to answer it and was meeted with a group of several people.
One was tall, wearing a white mask and had a black cloak, another had a white mask and an orange magicians outfit. One was in a straitjacket, another had a lizard like appearence, reminding Izuku of another lizard bodied quirk user, the thug that got away from him. There was another member who was tall, muscular and wearing a pink button up shirt that was open, showing her white shirt underneathe. Another was on the shorter side, a gas mask was hanging off his neck and he had dirty blonde hair. Another member had a dark jumpsuit and looked like a certain american movie character that Izuku recognized, comparing him to Deadpool.
"H-hello you must be the vangaurd action squad! Come in!"
Izuku said, letting everyone inside the bar, immediately making it cramped.
"Wow this place is great! No it isn't.."
The one who looked like Deadpool commented, though both his comments contradicted eachother which seemed a bit odd.
"So what do you league of villains plan to do? You said we could help if you help us so first we'll help with all your goals and then you'll help with all of ours..."
The lizard male asked, looking rather serious.
"We plan on changing society in our own means. Deku wants to change society's outlook on quirkless people, and i simply want to crush the heroes that plague this world... All heroes do is create violence, while they only focus on saving the ones they think are in danger instead of the ones who really are, the villains... Hero society makes me sick to my stomach and gives me the itch to destroy it..."
Tomura explained, giving Izuku's reasoning a rather short explanation since he didn't like hearing how long and complicated he made his reasoning sound, despite him doing the same.
"We will start by attacking UA high school, they're having an event where they spend the week in a summer training camp to imorove on their quirks, we're planning to attack at night, kill everybody and make an ass out of all the heroes and then stomp on hero society even more by killing All Might."
Tomura then added.
"We'll need you all to help us out, kill as many students as you can, and some heroes if you so please."
Izuku chimed in with a mischievous look on his face.
"The attack will be later tonight so be ready by then... Izuku has devised an area as to where you will all stay until night time..."
Tomura said, Izuku then told everybody about the cliff displayed on the picture, saying that is where they would stay.
"Sounds great! I can't wait to kill those trainees!"
The massive man with the mask and black cloak exclaimed, looking about ready to commit a mass murder.
"I'll warp you all there right now."
Kurogiri said, opening a large warp gate for them to go through. They all did so and went out on the other side.
Izuku was about to go in until he heard another knock at the door.
The boy rushed over to the door and opened it up, seeing a girl with blonde hair, there was two messy buns that kept most of her hair up. She also had a wide smile on her face as she saw some of the Vangaurd Action Squad walk in the warp gate. The other individual was a tall male with black spikey hair, cyan blue eyes and was most notably covered in peircings and burn marks.
"Oh, it seems you all have met the Vanguard Action Squad."
The tall male said, seeming like he knew them or something.
"Where are they going?!"
The girl excitedly asked.
"We're going to the forest training camp, has Tomura told you about that yet? Oh and you must be Toga and Dabi right!?"
Izuku mentioned, then asking them a question. Dabi nodded yes as he simply walked in the warp gate, Himiko happily skipped over to the warp gate and walked through.
Izuku then went last, going through as the warp gate then closed up.
Everybody was there, looking down at the forest below them, they could see the camp site but not the students as they were too small to see from where they were at.
"I say we attack now!"
The tall masked man insisted with his right hand scrunched up, showing his eagerness to kill.
"We must wait Muscular, it isn't the time."
The magician looking villain reassured him, eliciting a sigh from the man.
"I know... I'm just hella eager to crush some little skulls in the palm of my hand."
The man expressed, then clenching his hand into a fist and bringing it to his side.
"The heroes will fall for a brighter future, for all of society..."
Dabi chimed in, a expressionless look on his face which was covered in peircings and burn marks.
"Mhm... Kill anyone but the one with spikey blonde hair... He's mine, if any of you kill him, I'll have you eating and drinking through a tube..."
Izuku coldly said as he sat at the very edge of the cliff, his feet dangling off of it.
"He's the most full of shit out of everyone here and i want to teach him a lesson..."
Izuku then said, Dabi looked down at the green haired teen.
"Yes sir.."
Dabi sarcastically said, noticing a change in Izuku's behavior.
"So in the mean time, can you all tell me your quirks? I want to devise a plan and also because quirks are just intresting to me since i don't have one of my own.."
Izuku said, looking up, his innocence returning all of a sudden.
"My quirk is called Cremation, i can emmit blue flames from my body... And that's about it for me."
Dabi explained, not even going into deep detail.
"Hmm.. That sounds pretty useful for fighting from a distance... And I'm sure could be used for other things if used and trained properly..."
Izuku muttered.
"My quirk is called transform! I can turn into people as long as i consume their blood!"
Himiko excitedly explained with a wide smile on her face as usual.
"Hm.. That could be helpful, definitely good for deception..."
Izuku muttered once more, it seemed like taking notes on quirke was still a hobby of his so he was rather good, even if he didn't have his notebook on him at the moment.
"My quirk is called compress, whenever i touch someone or something, i could turn them into a small marble, though i can only compress one thing at a time and it must be under six feet in height, width and length."
The magician looking villain explained.
Izuku smiled and nodded.
"That could be useful too... Possibly for kidnapping Kacchan if he's being difficult or if you find him before me..."
Izuku said a little louder so the magician villain could hear him.
"My quirk is Magnetism, i can apply magnetic force to someone's body as long as they are in a certain distance, i can apply the magnetic force to body parts as well. Men are polarized south and women north, though i cannot activate my quirk on myself."
The tall one with the massive pillar and pinkish jacket explained.
"My quirk doesn't matter..."
The lizard looking villain said, seeming sort of self conscious about his quirk for some reason.
"All you need to know about my quirk is that i can kill with it, that's all you need to know!"
The cloaked man said, not being too specific.
"Okay? And you, the one with the straitjacket, what is your quirk?"
Izuku asked calmly, pointing over to the one in the straitjacket, he was also mumbling something.
And last the one with the gas mask spoke up.
"My quirk allows me to emmit a sleep gas that can put people, me included to sleep. That is why i possess this gas mask."
"O-okay... Um, i just wanted to know in case we should devise a plan, those heroes aren't to be underestimated just because of our numbers."
Izuku stated, standing up at the edge of the cliff.
"Eraser Head has a quirk that allows him to erase the quirks of anyone he looks at, Vlad King has the ability to manipulate blood from his body and harden it at will, the Pussycats, starting with Pixiebob has a quirk that allows her to control the ground she touches, making a tougher terrain for her opponents likley. Tiger has the ability to bend his body in unnatural ways, giving them the edge in a fight, Ragdoll has a quirk that allows her to search for up to one hundred targets, allowing her to scope out people who may be in danger or villains that are a threat and need to be taken care of. And last but not least, Mandalay, her quirk grants her the ability to transmit her thoughts to others around her, basically telepathy which may allow her to devise strategies amongst her teammates without us having a clue, making her rather unpredictable if teamed up with multiple others."
Izuku thoroughly explained.
"Toga, search for other students or heroes, take their blood and tranform into them whenever you see fit, like i said it could be used for deception."
Izuku continued.
"Dabi, you'll be the first to go down, you too gas mask. Dabi will start by burning part of the forest down to try and split the heroes up and get them distracted, while gas mask will make some gas to knock anyone out who goes near the gas, likley to give us the edge."
Izuku explained.
"Hey, it's Mustard, asshole, not gas mask!"
The one wearing the gas mask, apperantly named Mustard angirly corrected him.
"Oh.. S-sorry, actually could you all tell me your names? I just realised that i know none of your names..."
Izuku then said, looking over at them.
"Muscular."
The cloaked man simply said. press."
The magician looking villain said.
"The name's Spinner."
The lizard villain spoke.
"I am Magne."
The villain with the magnet quirk said.
"Twice!"
The deadpool looking one introduced himself.
"And that is Moonfish."
Mustard said, pointing to the one in the straitjacket.
"Nice to meet all of you! Now Muscular, since i do not know your quirk and since you are so confident in your ability to kill, kill anyone you want, aside from the one i described earlier."
Izuku continued discussing his strategy.
"Twice, you will make clones of all of us, since you can copy quirks too that means we will be double our strength."
Izuku then added. press, if you run into the one i described earlier, use your quirk and capture him. That is if you run into him before i do though. Everyone else, since you won't reveal your quirks, go ahead and do pretty much whatever."
Izuku said.
"And now we wait for night time to roll around, I'll let you go whenever i see fit."
Izuku finished with a smile as he stretched his back and his arms.
Katsuki let out a yell as he outstretched his arms into the air, standing in a tub of boiling hot water to expand his sweat glands.
He fired a massive explosion that everyone could see, that was how big his explosions have gotten.
Katsuki still wasn't feeling all the way right, he was a lot angrier towards everyone around him, being considered hostile in some instances, going as far as yelling very vicious things to people who even talk to him and also pushing people in his way.
A lot was on his mind though, he still thought about Izuku and how he became a villain, thinking it was so out of character for him to go down the path he did. And his little fued with Shoto didn't make him feel any better as Shoto practically tapdanced on his little pride left.
Katsuki decided to take a short break from training to catch his breath and give his arms recovery time, he roughly panted as he leaned on the edge of the tub.
He then took a quick glance further ahead, where Shoto was training, Katsuki saw some spikes of ice jut out from around the rock that devided Katsuki's and Shoto's training spots, acting as a patrician for the two to prevent them from fighting. The spikes of ice would then be replaced with the glow of a flame, and then some more spikes of ice to replace the flames, repeating that cycle for whatever reason unbeknownst to Katsuki.
Katsuki hated it when he thought about the more negative aspects of his life, Shoto and Izuku were included. But it was hard not to think of those negative aspects when some of them were right beside him when training and another was literally his childhood friend.
Katsuki felt himself fill up with rage as he extended his arms upwards once more and fired a massive explosion, a bit bigger than the last one.
"Say, why are you putting them through this kind of training anyways? It is reserved for second years and even they have a hard time! These are just first years and it looks like they're going through absolute hell."
Mandalay questioned Shota's methods.
"That is the point, you see, quirk development is simular to that of muscles, you have to work them to failure and go past your limmits to improve them the most effectively. I originally had it on the schedule just because i was intrigued but when the USJ attack happened, i felt that this was necassery so that they can properly defend themselves without getting so exhausted or with having any trouble. Plus, hero society is in desperate need of stronger heroes and the next generation of heroes, my students and 1B's students are suited for that due to their quirks being stronger than the quirks of the previous generation."
Shota explained calmly as he watched his students train their indivisual quirks.
"These students want to become heroes, and so I'm putting them through the ringer for as long as they're getting tought by me, so that they can be the best heroes possible."
Shota finished, simply eliciting a nod from Mandalay.
"Hey I'm going to see where Kota is at, I'll talk to you later Eraser Head."
Mandalay then said before walking off to look for Kota.
Training continued for another few hours until late afternoon, everybody was exhausted from over using their quirks.
Everybody was back at the lodge, eating self made food and talking amongst eachother, well every one except Katsuki who simply sat by a tree, giving everyone a cold glare.
Some people did notice Katsuki and brought him up in conversations occassionally, wondering what was on his mind and why he looked so pissed yet so deep in thought.
"Hey hey hey! Everybody! Once night time comes, we'll be doing the test of courage!"
Ragdoll announced energetically.
"The test of courage? What's that?"
Ochaco asked, tilting her head some as she, nor any of the other students had heard of the test of courage before.
"We'll be teaming you all up in pairs of two, then you'll all try to scare eachother! Whoever scares the most people wins! Sounds fun right?"
Ragdoll explained with the widest smile on her face as her eyes were also rather wide and crazy looking to an extent.
"I guess."
Shoto said as he was about to take a bite out of his curry.
Once it started getting darker and everyone had finished their food, they got teamed up in pairs of two each.
Shoto let out a pissed off sigh as he was teamed up with Katsuki, and he knew he couldn't do anything about it because Shota was inside teaching some students who failed the recent written exam, and the other adults in the situation had no clue about their hatred for one another.
"I'm going to scare everyone here... You hear me half and half?"
Katsuki snarled, his face expressing his rage.
"I do, but i don't care. Do whatever you want Bakugo."
Shoto said as each team was told to go into the forest.
Izuku felt a smile creep on his face as he realised it had turned night time.
"It's time!"
Izuku said, letting out a small chuckle of excitement since he hasn't done anything in a while and was bored, so he was glad that he was going to be able to quench it. Though his eyes were still mostly set on capturing Katsuki.
Izuku pulled both of his swords out and held them beside his waists.
"Mustard, Dabi, you know the drill."
Izuku said as they slid down the land slide that Pixiebob made earlier so that the students would go into the forest against their will.
"Just watch Kacchan, I'm coming for you, and there is nothing you can do to stop me."
Izuku said as he slid down the land slide next, the other villains followed.
The End
Author's note: I hope you enjoyed this chapter, i apologize for it taking forever, i was just not very motivated to write at the time. Also i'm sorry if the pacing is a bit iffy and everything isn't 100% accurate to the anime like how they recruited the Vangaurd Action Squad, i'm pretty much doing most of this based off of my memory so please forgive me. I'm sure the next chapter is going to be insane, possibly one of my best chapters yet! I have quite a few things planned out so i hope you all are excited to see what i have in store! I think that is all i have to say for now so goodbye!
