The next day, Bakugo and the rest of his class were sitting down, having a silent drink in memory of Izuku and Ochaco. They were gathered at an agency building. It was their very own agency as it was Midoriya's idea for the class to stick together. Everyone agreed and Ochaco's parents were all but happy to work on it.

"Remember the first date? We literally had to set them both up as a blind date for them to get to get in a relationship." Kyoka Jiro asked to which some chuckled.

"Can't believe it actually managed to work." Kaminari said before taking a sip of his soda.

"The two just needed a wake up call." Shoji added.

"The news of their engagement... That was possibly the happiest I've ever been, aside from getting my acceptance letter." Ashido said, tears threatening to leak.

"It would've been a good wedding." Sato said solemnly. There was an uncomfortable silence as everyone simply hung their head and mourned.

Iida himself as been very silent since the beginning. It hurt. It hurt just as bad when his brother was left paralyzed by the Hero Killer, Stain.

"HOLY SHIT!!" Everyone jumped at the shout and stood up only to see Kirishima running down to the living room.

"Kirishima? What's wrong?" Iida asked worriedly.

"This!" Kirishima replied before turning on the TV.

"Breaking News, the cemetery in Musutafa has experienced a grave robbing situation as the grave containing the hero Deku was found defiled and emptied. Local law enforcement have not ruled out a possible suspect as of now. However, what is clear is that this is the work of a villain. The shrine dedicated to Deku was also found ruined with the container holding his costume was also ruined with it stolen. We now go to the scene of the crime where Detective Tsukauchi has more to say."

The TV screen revealed Detective Tsukauchi giving his statement.

"We suspect foul play, but we have not discovered any suspects. However, what is clear is that this is an attempt to disturb Deku's peace. Many heroes have volunteered to help us look for the perpetrator. I assure everyone, we will bring Deku back to give him the peace he deserves. No further comment."

The screen was shut off by Bakugo sneering at the TV. He was pissed. Off. Along with many of his other classmates.

"Guys... I think it's time we joined the hunt." Bakugo growled.

"I'm with Bakugo on this one. Whoever did this is going to pay." Mina Ashido said with a sneer.

Bakugo's phone rings to which he picks up to see Momo Yaoyorozu. He answered before putting the phone to his ear. "Yeah?"

"You saw the news?" Yaoyorozu asked with a shaky voice, indicating that she was on the verge of crying.

Bakugo replied. "Yeah. We all saw it. We're going to join on the search."

"W-well we are too." She declared.

"We?" Bakugo asked in slight confusion.

"Shoto's with me."

"Good. When can you get to the agency?" Bakugo asked as he began to pace back and forth.

"We'll be there shortly." Yaoyorozu replied to which Bakugo nodded.

"OK. I'm going to call the detective. Letting him know we're joining." With that, he hung up before going to his contacts and tapped on Detective Tsukauchi.

After a couple rings, he answered. "Ground Charge, how can I help you?"

Bakugo looked at the rest of his class to see the determination on their faces. He replied,

"We're volunteering our help."


Later That Night

Midoriya crouched on a roof top, waiting for someone. The crow perched on his shoulder before flying away, giving Midoriya a reason to follow. He jumped onto a different roof before stopping as his vision suddenly changed.

The colors turned to blue as it looked like he was looking down in an alley. He could see... Toga. Sitting next to a flaming barrel, sharpening knives.

His vision returned normal, making him blink repeatedly, just so he can get his bearings. He looked at the crow that stood on the edge of the roof, and came to the conclusion that he saw through the bird's eyes.

He walked to the edge of the roof and sure enough it was her. There was no mistaking her blonde buns and yellow eyes.

He looked down below his feet to see a dumpster. He spread his arms out before dropping down, and landed on his back.

Toga heard the noise before a laugh echoed throughout the alley, inexplicably making her shiver.

Midoriya stood up and walked towards her with a sickening grin. Toga grinned at the s "Hey, celebrating Halloween a little early, aren't we?"

He only kept his grin up as he replied for the first time. "Every day is Halloween to me."

Toga giggled before frowning at the sight of his costume.

"Wait a minute, where did you get that outfit?"

Midoriya moved closer to the barrel, revealing his painted face and green puffy hair. "Why from the place I died, of course."

She blinked before looking at his hair and gasped as she stood up in alarm. "I-Izuku?"

Midoriya kicked the barrel away as his eyes held rage, scaring Toga to back up against the wall. "S-stay away!"

"What's wrong? Afraid of a ghost?"

Toga tossed the knife in her hand at him, to which he slapped away. "Missed. Try again."

Toga pulled out another knife and threw it at him to which he moved his head slightly.

She was growing increasingly afraid, so she spoke. "What are you going to do? You're a hero! Heroes don't kill! I'm just a helpless victim!"

She tossed one last knife only for Midoriya to catch it, cutting his hand. He took the knife in his other hand before and looked at the cut only for the blood to move back into the wound before closing back up. He grinned at her before throwing the knife at her, impaling her shoulder.

She screamed in pain before Midoriya got right up in her face and pulled out another knife from her belt and whispered,

"Victims, aren't we all?"


Detective Tsukauchi looked at the body of Toga with disgust, not just because of who it was, but also from the way she died.

Her ribcage was cut open with knives impaled in every major organ in her body.

"What do you think, sir?" Sansa Tamakawa asked with a hand over his mouth.

"I would say it's a vigilante but the way she died... This has to be a villain attack." Tsukauchi said with a shaky breath.

The detective moved the white sheet to cover Toga's corpse.

"Sir! Take a look at this!" A police officer said to which Tsukauchi and Tamakawa walked to the wall, only to see a bloody insignia of a crow.

"Sir, do you think the killer did this to avenge Deku?" Tamakawa asked.

That thought most certainly crossed the detective's mind. Something with this much aggression in killing a member of the League of Villains most certainly could have done it out of revenge.

"It's possible. Let's see the witness." Detective Tsukauchi said before walking to a woman who sat on the sidewalk.

"Ma'am, can I talk to you?" He said to the woman who looked up and nodded.

"Now, my quirk allows me to know when you're telling the truth or not. So I'm just going to ask a few questions, is that alright?" The detective said to which she nodded. He pulled out his notepad to write down everything she said.

"Good. Now my first question is how did you come to find out about this?"

"I-I was walking home after a long shift at work. I heard this... Horrifying laugh and thought it was a villain and heard some screams. I just wanted to see what happened before reporting it to the police."

Truth

"That was very brave of you, ma'am. You did the right thing. So what did you see?"

"I saw this... Man walking towards the girl, I thought she was victim but she was throwing knives at him."

Truth

"Can you describe the man for me?"

"He was tall, maybe 6'3. He had... Green hair and green eyes. He was wearing black and white paint. He kinda looked like a gothic clown. But... I could've sworn he was wearing the costume that belonged to Deku."

Truth

Detective Tsukauchi felt alarmed by this. The perpetrator was wearing Deku's costume? Green hair? Did the killer steal Deku's corpse just so he could use his hair?

"Is there anything else you can say before I let you go? Every little detail you can think of counts" He asked.

"Y-yeah. The girl, she called him Izuku."

Truth

He clenched his jaw before closing his notepad and smiled at her. "Thank you ma'am. I'll have an officer escort you home."

He walked away from the lady and back to the bloody insignia.

Was it a man who broke into Deku's corpse just to take his hair and fashion it into a wig while stealing his costume? Or... Did Deku survive?

Whatever it was, he needed to figure it out. And fast.
