AN: Hello, my readers! In the previous chapter, we were focused on how the adults were dealing with the villains. Well, as the title of this chapter says, we'll see the situation around the students and young heroes, because this story is about them and I wasn't going to let them stay on the sidelines in that war. I hope you enjoy.
During the course of the battle between the professional and otherworldly heroes against the otherworldly villains, the U.A. was quiet. In the dormitory of the students of class 1-A, both the students and the young heroes were watching the television which was broadcasting as much as possible what was happening in the war.
Needless to say, the other students (those who didn't go to the other world) were impressed when they saw the abilities and powers of the otherworldly heroes that they showed from time to time.
"Wow. You had said they were impressive but seeing them in action is something else." said Hanta.
"I have to admit, that arrow man is doing well for not having powers." said Fumikage.
"They're awesome! Especially those heroines! I'd like to meet them!" said Toru.
"What's truly impressive is Thor's power. He certainly lives up to his title as the god of thunder." said Mezo.
"It's magnifique!" said Yuga.
"And that green-skinned man looks as strong as All Might." said Mashirao.
"That red-haired woman in the black leather suit is so sexy! I have to get a picture of her!" exclaimed Minoru with hearts in her eyes.
"Did you really fight with those people?" asked Rikido to the students and the young heroes.
"That's right! We fought with them against real villains! It was the best experience of my life!" exclaimed Izuku with joy.
"Jo. How I would have loved to experience it too." said Hanta clenching his fist in anger.
"Who knows. Maybe when this is all over, you can visit our world." said Kamala.
"That's a good idea. There are so many things in that world that we would like to show you." said Ochaco being in favor of the idea.
"It would certainly be a very interesting offer, but I think we would have to talk to the teachers and our parents." said Fumikage.
"You are right. Our case was accidental, but now that it's not going to be, things might be different." said Shoto understanding his partner's point.
"I guess, looked at that way, he's right." said Bobby.
"I just hope this war ends as soon as possible." said Mina.
"Don't worry. With your heroes working with our heroes, I'm sure everything will be fine." said Doreen.
BOOM
As if it was a blast from the universe as soon as she said that an explosion sounded throughout the academy.
The students and young heroes rushed to the large window facing outside to see a smokescreen at the academy barrier.
"W-what's going on?" asked Lorna.
"I don't know, but it can't be good." said Eijiro.
"Yes. The universe usually does that. When everything goes right and you say nothing can go wrong, something bad ends up happening." commented Spider-Gwen.
When the smoke cleared, everyone could see robots cross through the hole in the barrier into the interior of the academy and began shooting. The students and young heroes quickly took cover to avoid the laser fire that shattered the glass of the windows.
"It's a villain attack!" exclaimed Izuku.
"I thought all the enemy forces would be on the battlefield." said Laura.
"Surely they decided to send a squad to attack this place due to it being an important place to your world." said Spider-Man.
"Shouldn't the teachers at this school do something?" asked Kurt.
"Most of them have left to help in the main battle, leaving a few at the academy. If they're not here, it means either something bad has happened to them, or they're attacking more areas of the academy." said Tenya.
"We're going to die!" shouted Minoru in panic.
"Not if we do something about it." said Spider-Man getting up to take action.
"What are you doing?" asked Tsuyu.
"If the teachers can't help you, then we'll have to act on our own." said Spider-Man.
"In that case, I'll help too." said Izuku.
"You can't Izuku! Now that we're in our world, we must follow the rules and leave the villain business to the professionals!" said Tenya.
"I don't think it will matter if we end up getting killed." said Kyoka standing up.
"You're idiots if you think a handful of tin cans will make me hide!" said Katsuki getting up as well.
Little by little, the young heroes stood up, ready to fight the threat to protect them all. Then, without hesitation, the original 11 students also stood up.
There might be rules against what they were going to do, but they weren't going to let those robots hurt people. If they had learned anything from their experience in that world, it was that there are times when you have to act in spite of the rules.
"Are you sure about what you're going to do?" asked Mezo.
"Do you have a death wish or what!" asked Minoru.
"I'm not going to let those things do what they want with our academy." said Denki.
"Besides, we're already used to things like this." said Kitty.
"Whether you want to participate or not, the decision is yours. We won't force you." said Momo.
The other students still had their doubts. Yes. They had their encounters with villains before, but this situation was very different. They were going to face an army of armed robots. However, they had to admit that the courage and determination of their classmates and the young heroes was impressive.
One by one, they also stood up as a sign that they would join in. Minoru kept complaining, but also eventually stood up.
All the students of class 1-A and the young heroes prepared to throw themselves into battle to defend the academy and everyone there.
"Classmates and friends..." began Izuku as he and the others activated their powers to spring into action. "Assemble!"
At them, they all gave a battle cry as they began to run towards the robots.
Izuku moved quickly to dodge the shots while punching and kicking any robot in his path. With the power of the One For All, when he kicked or punched the air, he would send out waves of wind that shattered several robots. He would even throw some Delaware Smash to annihilate many more.
Katsuki managed to move with enough agility to dodge the shots while using his powerful blasts to smash as many robots as they could. On one occasion, he launched himself upwards and blasted an area full of robots, destroying them all.
Shoto used his icy side to slide along the ground to dodge the robots' shots. When he stopped, he stepped on the ground, sending a wave of ice that ended up freezing several robots until they ended up disconnected.
Ochaco moved quickly and nimbly to dodge the robots' shots and as she approached them, she used her Quirk, causing them to soar into the sky and then, deactivating it, causing them to hit the ground, being destroyed in the process.
"Alright, time to use Mr. Stark's prototype." said Tenya as he moved quickly around the area dodging shots.
Boosting his engines to full power until the fire it emitted was almost blue, something strange covered Tenya's engine tubes. With his speed increased, Tenya sped through the place, kicking any robot there was. The time limit passed, and, to Tenya's surprise, he didn't need to take a break as usual, a sign that Iron Man's invention was working properly, much to his delight.
Momo created a bazooka with which she launched a missile that took out several robots. Determined to save energy, she created a staff and a shield and went on the attack. With the shield, she defended herself from the shots and with the baton, she hit the robots until they were destroyed.
Tsuyu jumped high to dodge the robots' shots and swung her tongue to grab one robot and throw it at another. When she landed on the ground, before another robot shot at her, she lunged towards them and started kicking them hard.
Eijiro stiffened his body as much as he could to try to resist the robot shots, and despite taking some damage, he continued forward and began punching at the robots, managing to smash them with his hardened fists.
Denki launched electric attacks that managed to render several robots inactive, but soon after that, more robots began to surround him, forcing him to increase the power of his attack to destroy them before they fired. He knew he wouldn't last long like this, so he had to make sure he didn't abuse his power.
Kyoka plugged the headphones into the speakers of her boots, sending out a sonic wave that managed to paralyze the robots. Taking advantage of that moment, she switched connections to the speakers on her wristbands and hit the ground, sending out a wave that caused a small earthquake, causing the robots to be destroyed in the process.
Mina slid along the ground with the acid she secreted in her feet to dodge the shots while at the same time, she launched jets of acid that managed to destroy the robots' weapons and some robots in the process.
"Come on, guys. Let's show them what we can do." said Hanta as he pulled tape from his elbows.
With them, he grabbed a pair of robots and set about spinning like a top, making the two grabbed robots hit other robots and in the process taping them up. By the time he was done spinning, he slammed the two piles of robots he made into each other on his tapes and turned them into a mountain of metal and tape.
Mezo charged straight at the robots, making sure to dodge the shots and when he got close, he slammed his fists into them, managing to smash him. He rolled on the ground to dodge an incoming shot before charging back.
Mashirao used his tail to move, managing to dodge the shots, while also using it to hit the robots and smash them to pieces, though he also used melee to fight them.
"If we're going to die, then I'll die a hero's death!" shouted Minoru as he began to launch the balls from his head in an uncontrolled manner.
Some of the balls hit the exit hole of the robots' weapons, causing them to explode with the robot included, others hit the robots' feet, leaving them immobilized, and others ended up covering some robots until they couldn't even move anymore.
Fumikage pulled Dark Shadow out from within, and the shadow beast began to attack the robots like a wild beast. Of course, he made sure to move from side to side, as the shots could hurt Dark Shadow.
Yuga got into position and emitted a beam that shattered several robots. Taking advantage of the fact that he could act, he moved from side to side like a sprinkler, smashing as many robots as he could before he suffered the consequences of his power.
Toru took advantage of her invisibility to pass between the robots. As one of the robots was about to shoot one of the students, Toru hit it in the back, causing it to turn around, but as soon as it saw nothing, it returned its focus to the students. However, Toru took advantage of that to grab it and throw it at another robot, causing them both to fall to the ground. It didn't seem to do much good, but it was the most she could do.
Rikido swallowed an entire sachet of sugar, increasing the power of his muscles and began charging like a train towards the robots. Despite his intelligence being reduced at that point, he was able to stay focused enough to dodge the shots before smashing the robots with his fists.
Koji stood apart from the battle as he had a flock of birds start attacking the robots, managing to distract them long enough for the others to tear them apart.
"Not bad, but we're not going to lag behind either." said Kamala as she stretched out her arms and legs.
She moved from side to side to dodge the robots' shots and then enlarged her hands to smash the robots or knock them aside. On one occasion, she wrapped her arms around two robots before slamming them into each other.
Bobby covered his body in ice before beginning to slide down an ice ramp to dodge shots while at the same time launching an ice beam that froze any robot he encountered.
Laura extended her adamantium claws and began slashing and swiping at any robot in her path while nimbly dodging the shots. At one point, she leaned on her hands and extended her foot claw to decapitate a couple of nearby robots.
Kitty used her power to make the shots pass through her and then pierced several robots, causing them to short-circuit, rendering them inactive, some even exploding.
Kurt would teleport from place to place to dodge the robots' shots. On occasion, he appeared near another robot, causing them to shoot at each other after he teleported. He even used his tail to skewer the robots.
Rogue, who had copied Eijiro's power, stiffened her body to hit the robots while resisting the robots' shots a bit. She then copied Tsuyu's powers so she could easily dodge due to the agility of a frog. She even used her frog tongue to hit the robots.
Wanda used her powers to generate a shield that blocked the shots. Then, with a pink aura covering her hands, she caught several robots in another pink aura, lifted them into the air and slammed them into each other, destroying them completely.
Pietro moved at such speed that the rest of the world moved in slow motion. As he 'paced' around the area, he changed the direction of the robots' weapons at the moment of shooting so that they hit other robots and hit or tripped other robots. By the time he stopped and time around him returned to normal, several robots were destroyed due to his actions.
Lorna used her powers of magnetism to move a robot and use it as a shield to protect herself from gunfire. Then, extending her arms forward, she stopped several robots and lifted them into the air. With a wave of her hands, she used those robots as weapons to destroy other robots before clenching her fist, causing the robots she captured to be crushed like tin cans.
Doreen, like Koji, used her powers to summon an army of squirrels led by Tippy. Thanks to her animal agility, they were able to dodge the shots and while the squirrels attacked the robots with teeth and claws, she acted with her own fists.
Spider-Gwen moved from side to side to dodge the shots with the help of her spider-sense while throwing webs to block the robots' weapons and catching some of the robots. She then fought one-on-one against the robots.
Daisy launched sonic waves that caused the robots to start shaking until they were bent, crumpled like paper, or even exploded. A few robots tried to shoot her, but, sending a wave to the ground, she managed to raise a wall of earth that she used as a shield before launching another sonic wave to destroy those robots.
Spider-Man, thanks to his spider-sense, was able to nimbly and swiftly dodge the robots' shots before hitting some of them and trapping others with his webbing. On one occasion, he crossed his arms, throwing a web of webs at one robot on each side and then, uncrossing his arms with a jerk, pulled those robots to the opposite side, causing them to be destroyed on impact with each other.
Crystal launched a blast of fire to melt a few robots. She then launched lightning bolts from her hands to disable others. Next, she lifted several rocks from the ground before hurling them at the robots, crushing them in the process. Finally, she rose into the air and threw a tornado at the robots that completely destroyed them.
Despite the combined efforts of the students and the young heroes, things didn't seem to be going any better. As they took down two or three robots, half a dozen would take their place. They knew there shouldn't be infinite robots, so it should be over at any time, the problem was they didn't know if they could keep up the same pace all the time.
Wanda was busy at the moment throwing magic orbs at the robots, but then, a shot grazed her leg and arm, making her groan in pain as she bent down on one knee. Looking up, she saw a robot pointing its weapon at her.
She was about to cast another spell when someone stepped between her and the robot.
"Minoru?" asked Wanda surprised to see the little perverted student of the class standing protectively in front of her, but what caught her attention more, was the line of blood falling from his head.
"I won't allow a beautiful maiden to be hurt in my presence! You will pay for such a crime!" exclaimed Minoru before throwing as many balls as he could, managing to hit the robot hard enough to knock it down and prevent it from moving.
Due to the overuse of his Quirk, a lot of blood was falling from the student's head, making him feel dizzy before he fell backwards, but Wanda caught him in time.
"You have a lot of courage for someone so small." said Wanda with a small smile.
Izuku was getting more and more exhausted. He had managed to take out many robots with his Quirk, but still more were appearing, making it tricky to take them down while dodging shots.
At this rate, the robots would eventually overwhelm them and force them to retreat, maybe even lose the battle.
After smashing another robot, one approached from behind with weapons ready to shoot, Izuku realized this and when he was about to turn around or dodge the future shot, something or someone hit the robot, destroying it in the process.
Izuku was completely confused and surprised, as the person who saved him was wearing armor similar to Iron Man's, but different. Instead of red and yellow, it was pink and yellow. Plus it was about the same height as him.
"Huh? Who are you?" asked Izuku.
"Who?" asked a voice from inside the armor turning its head. "Oh. Hello, Izuku!" he exclaimed turning around.
"That voice... Wait. Is that you, Mei?!" asked Izuku in shock at the revelation.
"That's me!" said Mei.
"B-B-But how? Why are you here? Where did you get that armor?" asked Izuku.
"This is just the result of my research of otherworldly technology! The baby that will revolutionize the world of science of our world! I called it... Baby-Armor Mark 1!" said Mei striking a victory pose with her fist raised to the sky.
"But isn't it dangerous for you to be here?" asked Izuku.
"Technically..." said Mei as the face part of the armor lifted up to reveal that it was empty. "I'm not there."
"What?" asked Izuku.
In the U.A. lab, Mei and Shuri stood, with the princess watching events through small screens she set up herself and the student in a chair, wearing virtual reality goggles while operating a remote control, as if she were playing a game.
"It was something I came up with. Instead of being inside the armor and taking serious damage, I designed a remote-control system so I could operate it remotely. As if it were a video game." Mei explained.
"And I helped her. It wasn't that complicated." commented Shuri.
"Wow. Mei. That's amazing!" said Izuku completely impressed by the tech nerd's accomplishment.
"We'll talk about how cool this baby is later. We'll deal with those robots first." said Mei.
"If that armor is based on Mr. Stark's, does that mean it also has weapons?" asked Izuku.
"Unfortunately, Mr. Stark made sure to remove the weapons part in the files he shared, but that doesn't mean it's not combat ready." said Mei before the foot thrusters ignited, causing it to start flying in the air.
She stretched her arms forward. Then a small compartment opened in the wrist area and shot a pair of balls which, when separated, were revealed to be attached to a rope.
The balls passed to the sides of the robot, but ran into the rope, causing the balls to spin around it, resulting in the robot being tied up. She repeated the process several times, succeeding in trapping several robots.
Then, several thrusters came out of its back, making the armor go so fast that it was hitting many robots as if it were an uncontrolled freight train.
By the time Mei's armor slowed down and landed on the ground in a heroic manner, thanks to her and everyone else, more than half of the robots in the place had been eliminated.
Just before the students and young heroes returned to the fight against the robots, suddenly, slow clapping began to be heard.
Everyone turned their gaze to the hole in the academy barrier to see a man in a white suit wearing a skeleton mask walk through the hole as he clapped his hands.
"A fine sight. For young students, you're not so bad." said the mysterious man.
"Who's he?" asked Ochaco.
"That's Taskmaster, a well-known villain in our world." said Spider-Man.
"It truly is a surprise that you are here, Spider-Man, as are all your friends from our world." said Taskmaster.
"We weren't about to let Hydra do whatever it wanted with this world!" said Kamala.
"I guess that was to be expected, but your luck is running out now." said Taskmaster.
"Ha. You think so? Look at us. There are so many of us and your robots have been smashed. Is that all you have?" asked Eijiro with a smile.
"I'm glad you asked." said Taskmaster before snapping his fingers.
After that, many robots began to pass through the hole into the interior of the academy. Before long, as many robots as there were before covered the area, much to the horror of the students and young heroes.
"You had to ask, didn't you?!" asked Hanta pissed off at what his classmate said.
"They're still robots. We'll be able to take them." said Bobby.
"Good. In that case, I'll take care of the villain." said Katsuki stepping forward.
"Are you sure, Kacchan? I can help you if..." started Izuku worried about his childhood friend/rival.
"I don't need your help! I can handle him by myself!" exclaimed Katsuki interrupting the green-haired boy.
"As you wish, but don't get too confident. Taskmaster has no powers, but he has the ability to copy the movements of his opponents and, if he's been watching us all this time, then he'll know how you move." said Spider-Man recalling his past experiences with the villain.
"So he doesn't have powers, huh? Good, that'll make things easier." said Katsuki with a dark smile.
"Uh... Didn't I just say that... You know what? Whatever. Do whatever you want." said Spider-Man giving up on reminding him of what he had said.
"You're lucky there's someone who needs you alive, but I guess that doesn't apply to those who come from my world. Attack!" ordered Taskmaster causing the robots to start fighting the students and young heroes.
As the others were taking care of the robots, a certain explosive student used his thrusters to launch himself at the villain while avoiding the robots in his path by maneuvering in the air with his blasters.
"Die!" shouted Katsuki unleashing an explosion at the villain.
However, when the smoke cleared, the villain wasn't there, much to the student's confusion and before he could think of anything else, Taskmaster kicked him in the side, sending him to the side.
"Wow. Looks like we've got a brave one. Or should I say daredevil? Sometimes I have trouble telling the difference." said Taskmaster.
"I'm going to make you bite the dust you bastard!" said Katsuki.
"You should have listened to Spider-Man. I've been watching you while you were fighting the first wave of robots. I know your every move. You won't be able to do anything against me." said Taskmaster.
"We'll see about that!" said Katsuki lunging towards him with his blasters at the same time as the villain charged towards him.
Katsuki stretched his fist forward intending to unleash another blast, but before they made contact, Taskmaster quickly jumped aside and punched him in the face.
Determined to try something else, Katsuki tried to hit him with his fists and kicks, but Taskmaster was able to dodge and block his every move and when he found an opening, he kneed the student in the stomach before punching him in the face, knocking him back.
"Like I said, I can predict what you're going to do. That's the problem with those who have power. You feel so confident that you think you are invincible. I'll give you a warning, you're not." said Taskmaster.
"Tsk. I hate to admit it, but you're right. If I continue like this, I'll end up losing." thought Katsuki in anger at having to accept what that villain said.
"Well, let's get this over with." said Taskmaster before charging towards him.
"If he knows all my moves, then I'll have to create new ones." thought Katsuki before charging towards him with his blasts.
When the distance between them closed enough, Katsuki stretched his arms forward. Thinking it was one of his typical moves, Taskmaster quickly backed up a step, but he didn't expect Katsuki to unleash a small explosion that propelled him backwards.
"What?" asked Taskmaster confused by the student's method of action.
Suddenly, Katsuki, who was in mid-air, spun upwards and with a more powerful explosion, launched himself like a bullet towards the otherworldly villain. Before he could defend himself, Katsuki gave used his blasts to spin around, managing to kick him all over his chest, sending him crashing to the ground.
"How'd you like that, huh?" asked Katsuki with a grin, glad he was able to hit him.
"Ugh." groaned Taskmaster as he got up. "Impressive, but that won't do you any good again now that I know that attack."
"You're going to see I have a lot of tricks in store." said Katsuki before launching himself back towards the villain with his blasts as the villain did the same towards him.
As Katsuki headed towards him, he used his blasts to zigzag rapidly back and forth. Taskmaster paused to try to analyze the student's strategy, but then, with another explosion, Katsuki darted in a diagonal direction and went right past the otherworldly villain.
Before he could react, the moment he was behind the villain, Katsuki threw a blast at him that sent him forward.
Taskmaster got back up and shot an angry look at the student.
"Game over!" said Taskmaster before quickly running towards the student.
Before Katsuki could react to that, Taskmaster managed to close the distance and started punching him in the body and face. Fortunately, Katsuki managed to find an opening to unleash an explosion and push him away.
Both opponents charged at each other again. Katsuki stretched out his arm to unleash another blast, but Taskmaster stepped aside to dodge it. Suddenly, however, Katsuki unleashed a pair of blasts that put him above the otherworldly villain and before he could realize it.
"Die!" shouted Katsuki unleashing a powerful explosion on him.
By the time the smoke cleared, Katsuki could be seen standing in front of a downed Taskmaster.
A big, wild smile of victory flashed across the student's face.
"At last. I defeated a villain who had no powers." said Katsuki.
"Kacchan!" at the call, Katsuki turned his head to see the other students and young heroes, who had managed to defeat all the robots present. "You did it!"
"Of course I did! Did you have any doubts?" asked Katsuki.
"I did, but it wasn't bad for your first time!" said Spider-Man.
"We did it, guys! We protected U.A.!" exclaimed Mina happily.
"I hope we get high marks for this." said Hanta.
"This fight was perfect for testing my new baby." said Mei from the armor.
"Jo. I hope to see the look on the teachers' faces when they hear about this." said Eijiro.
"In my opinion, they would be proud to have such brave and dedicated students protecting others." said Crystal.
"I think so too." said a voice unknown to all.
Looking up to the sky, they were surprised to see a man in a suit of armor and a metallic mask and a green hooded cloak floating through the air via thrusters on boots. While the other students were confused by that guy, the 12 students and the young heroes were very surprised and a little scared to see him.
"Who is that guy?" asked Mashirao.
"H-He's Doctor Doom!" replied Izuku with a bit of terror and pointing a finger at him.
"Do you know him?" asked Fumikage.
"Not personally, but we did hear about him. According to what we were told, he is one of the most powerful villains in the other world." said Momo with some fear.
"What?" asked Minoru completely terrified to hear that.
"But I thought he couldn't get out of Latveria without being stopped!" said Tsuyu.
"Him being him, he must have found a way to get out without getting caught." said Daisy.
"What are you doing here, Doom? I never imagined you would join Hydra!" said Kamala demanding answers.
"I didn't join them, I collaborate with them. We simply have intertwined interests." said Dr. Doom.
"Intertwined interests?" asked Laura.
"Our deal was that Red Skull could do with this world what he wanted, and I would keep certain souvenirs." said Dr. Doom.
"What do you mean by souvenirs?" asked Shoto.
"That power you call Quirks has really caught my attention. There may be mutants and inhumans in my world, but there has never been anything like yours. A power that manifests itself at a certain age and gets better with each generation. I'd love to learn all about them." said Dr. Doom.
"And why don't you just go to a library?" asked Kurt.
"I see you don't get it. I don't want to learn about the Quirks through books or files. No. I want to learn from them directly and deeply." said Dr. Doom focusing his gaze on the students.
The students trembled with fear as they understood what he meant. He wanted to capture them to experiment on them to find out as much as possible about the Quirks. They knew he was evil, but that took it to another level.
"You're not going to do what you want with them!" said Lorna.
"That's right! If you want them, you'll have to go through us!" said Wanda.
"We won't let you turn us into your guinea pigs!" said Izuku managing to find enough courage to face the villain.
"Yes! We'll fight you if we have to!" said Ochaco.
The other students and young heroes followed, preparing to fight the otherworldly villain.
Doctor Doom landed on the ground and looked at the group of young heroes and students who were ready to face him.
"As you wish, but I won't make it easy for you." said Doctor Doom.
AN: And here ends the second part of the war. What did you think of the fight, eh? Tell me if there were any mistakes to correct or anything like that. We'll see you in the next chapter, where the final conclusion will happen!
