He felt himself being pulled, hands grabbing onto his leg. His semi-conscious self, tried to move his body, but he couldn't even feel his fingers. Then, he started feeling repeated pressure on his chest, as he spurted out water. He felt air enter his lungs, as he felt the breath of another on his face. The cycle repeated until all the water had left him, and he could move his body once again.
Izuku opened his eyes, and saw a crimson boy, thinking it was some demon, before he realized it was just Kirishima. "Th-thanks Kirishima" Izuku said, his voice coarse, "I guess you used CPR?"
The scarlet boy simply sighed in relief before looking at Izuku sheepishly, "Yeah, bro, it was mandatory in school. I can't believe that shadow guy attacked us like that! That so unmanly!" Kirishima rubbed his fist as he thought of all the ways he could punch the manliness out of Kurogiri.
"And by the looks of it, we're in the flood zone..." Izuku analyzed, looking at his surroundings, "And on a fake boat. Could this get any worse?" Immediately regretting his words, Izuku uses his heightened hearing and hears shouts, and feels emotions of malice, greed, and wrath heading towards them. "Kirishima! Get in the ship!" Izuku shouted, causing Kirishima to do so out of instinct.
Izuku joined the red head hiding, "Midoriya, what are we hiding from?" Kirishima asked.
Suddenly a gunfire could be heard as bullets started hitting the hull of the ship.
"That." Izuku stated. He peered above the wall and witnessed around fifteen or so men and woman walking on the water as if it was jelly. About four of them were holding guns, though thankfully they were merely pistols. He saw 6 visible mutation quirks, be it animal features or a boat propellors on their arms. It was obvious that the villains had prepared for this with aquatic based quirks. "Kirishima, we're going to have to get back to Aizawa quickly, so it looks like we're going to face them..."
"I don't think I'm going to be much use bro..." Kirishima reluctantly says, "I'm a physical kind of dude so water isn't my strongest suit" Izuku nods, and in all of a sudden, he rushes out of the hiding spot, causing the crimson boy to panic.
Shots were fired at the emerald boy, but he narrowly dodged each of them through either sheer luck or speed. He looked at the group of villains who were rushing towards the boat, so he channeled his magic to his mouth, emanating a green glow, "SPIRIT DRAGON ROAR!" The beam of emotional energy crashed into the jelly like water the henchman were standing on, causing the liquid to go back to its usual state. The thugs shout as they fall into the water, trying to climb out.
At the same time as this, the force of the roar caused the boat to shoot backwards, making Izuku remember something he learned from a physics class. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. He let out a grin, revealing his sharp canines, "Kirishima! Hold on tight!" The red student did as told, whether it be in shock or trust, as Izuku's eyes grew a more vibrant green.
"WITH THE ANGER IN MY LEFT HAND!" Just like in the quirk assessment tests, his left hand was engulfed in a crimson red glow, "WITH THE JOY IN MY RIGHT!" And once again his right hand glowed a summer yellow, "PUT THEM TOGETHER AND YOU HAVE... SPIRIT DRAGON'S GREAT BEAM!" Izuku clasped his hands together as a colossal green light shot out, piercing the water and leaving a temporary hole within the mass of liquid after it disappeared. The resulting beam caused the villains to get swept up in a wave, pushing them far away from the two boys, whilst the two hero students shot jetted towards land in their rocketing boat, as they eventually crash into the shore.
"Holy shit!" Kirishima swore, climbing out of the capsized ship, "That was so freaking manly, Midoriya!"
"You bet it was" Izuku yawned, a little tired from the amount magic he had just used, though he got over it quickly, "Now we should hurry to Aizawa-Sensei" Thus the two hero students went over to the entrance, where they hoped to find their teacher still breathing.
Conflagration Zone
In the once burning urban environment, was now covered in ice, as if hell had frozen over. Standing in the centre of the new tundra was a teen, surrounded by fallen bodies, his half red hair contrasting with the frozen ground. He walks up to one of the villains, who was still conscious, and looked into his eyes.
"Why are you here?" Todoroki said, a cold breath released from him.
"F-Fuck off kid!" The villain shouted, an icy feeling creeping up his spine. He didn't want to be here, but the hand man said that he would kill all their families. He had a daughter; he didn't want to risk her future.
Todoroki opens his palm, and ice dances around his fingers until a primitive looking knife made of ice appeared in his hand. He presses it against the villain's neck, not enough to draw blood but with enough force for the villain to feel the pressure.
"F-Fine! I'll talk!" The villain strains out, "They sent us here to d-deal with you all, whilst they would deal with All Might and the UA teachers. P-please, we didn't want to do this! They threatened us and our families!"
"Todoroki. That's enough." A feminine hand grabbed the knife, letting it float out of the scarred boy. Ururaka looked at her classmates with stern eyes. "We need to go help Aizawa sensei now."
The bi-colour haired boy sighed, letting go of the villain. He ices the feet of the henchman, and follows the infinity girl out of the once hellish zone. Unfortunately, they didn't notice a small shadow grabbing the ice knife.
Downpour Zone
"O-Ok! I... I GIVE UP!" A villain shouted; head locked by a blonde teen with a feisty grin. Bakugo had resorted to hand-to-hand combat since his nitro-glycerine sweat wouldn't work in the rain.
"You better, bitch!" The angry teen throws the adult villain to the floor, as the rain drops down his face.
"Bakugo, duck! Kero!" A frog-like girl shouts, kicking a villain with a cat mutation towards Bakugo's head. The blonde ducked out of the way, as the feline henchman flew over his head. And then suddenly another villain crashed into the cat man, drawing Bakugo's eyes to Melissa, whose fist was sparking with red energy.
"Kero, you brought your gear, Shield?" Tsuyu said, looking down on all the henchmen they had brought down.
"Yeah, it's always good to be prepared!" Melissa says her hand was enshrouded with her crimson support item, making Bakugo look at the trail of unconscious bodies behind her.
"Alright extras, let's get going" Katsuki commanded, heading towards the entrance, or well the general area he thought the entrance was.
"How on earth does Midoriya deal with him?" Melissa says to herself, before following him with Tsuyu.
Ruins Zone
"This city, it's cursed, filled with mayhem and chaos... The villains over run these streets, the fill the air with evil... It is truly a mad banquet of darkness" A dark figure stands over a fallen building, as the look at the destroyed cityscape in front of him.
"Enough monologuing Tokoyami!" Kaminari shouts out, a villain spasming around, behind him on the ground. "We gotta get back to Aizawa-Sensei, so save the Batman roleplaying for Discord!" The raven headed student grumbles as he jumps down the fake building.
"Yo, Sero!" Satou calls out, "Can I get some more tape?" He waves his hand to the numerous villains he had beaten up after eating some chocolate. A long string of tape shoots at him, which he grabs, and waves a thanks to the Tape-Dispensing Student.
"Alright Koda! You can come out now!" Denki calls, revealing the rock like boy walking out of a building, rather sheepishly. Although the rest of the students understood why, as he had no hand-to-hand experience and there were no animals within the USJ.
The five hero students finish things up before leaving the zone.
Mountain Zone
"3 villains coming east" Shoji says, a... hand ear? A hand ear against a wall, "4 villains from the North..."
"Phew" Mina Ashido sighs out, "We've already beaten 20 of them and Aoyama is out." She looks down to the possibly French student who was gently sleeping after taking about a respectable number of 4 villains before getting an unbearable stomach ache.
"Don't worry!" Hagakure shouts, "I can just knock them out by karate chopping the back of their necks like Edgeshot sometimes does!" Her gloves start moving rapidly, as she was acting out the karate chop herself.
"...But can you actually do that?" Mezo asks, a sceptical look on the visible part of his face.
"...No" She sighs out, before immediately jumping up with a new idea, "I'll just kick their balls!"
Shoji internally cringes before nodding, sending her to the North, whilst he supports Mina in the East.
Landslide Zone
"Alright guys, a crap ton of villains are climbing up the landslide, and we don't have a single ranged attacker..." Jirou says, biting her finger.
"Well, I can create a gun" Momo proposed.
"...We're not killing the villains" Ojiro stated with a blank, dead look on his face.
"Wha- No, No! That's not what I meant!" The heiress shouted, flustered, "I was thinking we could make tranquilizer darts and make guns that could shoot them."
"...Could you make a sniper?" Jirou shyly asks, reminiscing the days which she would play Sniper Elite 25 (released at 2346).
Momo concentrates a bit, as a glow emanates from a small gap in her suit, as suddenly a sniper pops out of her covered chest. "I made sure to learn most military equipment, so I have stun grenades and flashbangs available". She started glowing a bit again before standing tall with a god damn minigun with an obscene number of tranquillising bullets in a belt around her body, "Now, shall we go teach these villains a lesson" She walks out, leaving two stunned students following her.
'That was hot as fuck' Jirou thought to herself, fingering her new sniper.
"I feel somewhat obsolete..." Ojiro quietly mutters to himself.
Central Plaza
"Oh god... Aizawa-Sensei!" Izuku says, a horrified look on his face. His teacher, Eraserhead lied on the floor, cuts all over his body, blood dripping from his mouth, and crater on the ground he was on. And the blue haired student the class was introduced to earlier was fending off two monstrous creatures. One creature was a muscular monster, pitch black skin, a razor-sharp beak and a bulging brain. Every punch it releases crushed every air particle in its way. And the other monster was a blur of green and red... blood red. It was long, lanky and bones poking out. Steel blades grew from its arms, and it moved like lightning releasing a guttural roar ever time it moved.
As for Nejire, much of her suit was tattered, her body covered in bruises and cuts, but she continued dodging the attacks thrown at her. As for Thirteen, they were holding off the Shigaraki and Kurogiri, neither of the two could go near Thirteen, in fear of the blackhole, and Thirteen couldn't kill them, a stalemate.
"Yo, Midoriya, should we-?" Kirishima asked, before stopping as he notices that Izuku was no longer next to him.
"SPIRIT DRAGON'S ETHEREAL FIST!" Izuku shouted, his fist connecting against the head of the bulky monster, causing it to be knocked back away.
"I guess I'll get Aizawa-Sensei to safety" Kirishima sighed, quickly walking up to the battlefield.
Meanwhile, back on the battle.
"Hey, there I'm Nejire Hado!" Nejire says, introducing herself, "You can call me Nejire!" She dodges out of the way of another attack by the speedster monster.
"Uh, I'm Izuku Midoriya! Is now really the time to introduce ourselves? SPIRIT DRAGON'S ROAR!" He unleashes a blast of magic from his mouth, but the muscled monster was unscathed, "Damn, I'm running low on energy! Why won't these monsters go down!"
"...I can't believe it..." Nejire mutters quietly before talking back to Izuku, "It has a regeneration factor, Green Lantern! I don't know about this speedy one because I can't get a hit on it!" She lets out a blast of energy at the speed monster, but it doesn't even come close to hitting it.
"Green Lantern? Seriously?" Izuku asks, "Ok, how about this, we both attack the big one and then face the lanky one?"
"But then the lanky one will have an opening!" Nejire argues.
Suddenly the Speeding Demon targets Izuku's back, and right before it could reach the verdette with its blades, a crimson blur popped behind Izuku, and a grinding sound could be heard before the monster dodged back. "Oh god! Kirishima!" Izuku shouted, seeing his redhead friend standing behind him, arms crossed in front of his face, fully hardened, "Are you ok?".
"Haha! Don't worry bro!" He lifted an arm behind his head, revealing an unscathed arm, "And don't worry about Aizawa-Sensei, we've got someone on him right now." Izuku swirled his head around to see Tsuyu dealing with Aizawa, using a couple of spare medicinal items she had in her boots.
"Wait, if she's here... then-" Izuku suddenly was interrupted by a loud smash and boom behind him, to see the bulky monster being attacked from the front and back by attacks from Bakugo and Melissa, "-that means some of the others are here! Yes! Kachan, Shield! Can you guys deal with the big one with Nejire? Me and Kirishima will fight the fast one!" The teens in question nodded, running off to the large beast who was smashing objects around it.
"Kirishima, follow my lead! Be ready to block its attacks!" Izuku shouts to Kirishima, "Hey you skinny fuck! Come and get me!" Izuku cries out to get its attention, which actually works. The lanky monster speeds towards Izuku, an ear bleeding screech coming from its lipless mouth.
Once again blade meets rock (well, skin but...), and Kirishima stood in front of Izuku with a hardened body. In all but a second, Izuku jumped up into the air, a green aura wrapping around his body, eyes more verdant than ever. "DRAGON SLAYER SECRET ARTS! DRAGONS JOY: 1 MILLION CLAWED PUNCHES!" All around Izuku, manifested hundreds of ethereal, draconic fists, a shade of green reminiscent of Animar, the dragon who trained Izuku. The fists charged, the monster confused on what to do stood still, until the first fist hit it. Then another. And another. As the punches kept hitting it, survival instincts kicked in and the beast tried to get out, but it was too late as the punches kept pounding it down, beating it up. The rate of the punches started increasing the further the attack went on, until all one million punches had hit. The Lanky monster had every bone broken, blood spilling out of its mouth, though it was still breathing.
"One down, one to... go" Izuku faintly whispered, before collapsing. Thankfully, his crimson teammate caught him just in time, but at the sight of blood trickling down Izuku's nostril, Kirishima's face donned a look of worry, "Don't worry, about this... I just have to absorb some emotions..." Kirishima listened to Izuku, as the green haired boy closed his eyes, and opened his mouth.
Izuku's mind targeted for a strong bountiful source of emotions, so he immediately searched towards Katsuki's direction, hoping for some of his anger. Instead Izuku found another source. A plethora of pain, anger, madness, sadness, craze, and rage, all centred around one being. The monster. Before Izuku could reject the offering, the emotions started going into him in the form of red. It climbed into his mouth, filling up his insides and magic reservoir.
"Pain. Pain Pain Pain Painpainpainpain!" Izuku loudly muttered as the negative emotions swallowed him up. Kirishima looked at Izuku in panic, but the moment he touched Izuku, he felt depression so great he leaped back. Izuku looked at his crimson friend, pupils growing smaller in width and longer in heigh, reminiscent of a reptile's eye. Scales of a green so close to black grew on his skin, covering his arms, legs, and underneath his eyes. His canines grew sharper, pose more bestial and predatory, and hands more claw-like.
The draconic teen turned to the bulky monster, whose body stood in front of a fallen Katsuki and a battered Melissa with no support item standing in front of it, whilst Nejire, who's once shining blue eyes, now dull, was punching the monster to no effect. Izuku leapt, his jump leaving a crater and a gust of wind in its wake. He jumped onto the monster, in lightning speed, as a maniacal grin spread on his face, revealing a set of shark-like teeth.
The next word he said was deep, almost growling, and what Izuku, or well the green beast, uttered on that day would haunt the students in the vicinity for the rest of their lives.
"Prey..."
