"No. 13, start evacuating! All Might and I will deal with the Villains. That one in the middle is the most concerning." Shota points toward the creature with an exposed brain and the fog-like person.

All Might looked at the menacing creature blankly looking in their general direction. "Eraserhead, take care of the others. I'll deal with the one in the center, we must be quick."

They leaped into action, with Eraserhead jumping to the front to deal with the lesser Villains while All Might prepared himself for a big fight.

"All Might, if they are here for a reason then that must mean they must be confident. Be careful." Eraser warned before landing in the middle of a group of Villains.

'I still have hours with me, as long as I don't exert myself I can win. If they truly are confident in breaking into U.A. then I might need to go beyond.' All Might reminded himself.

Tomura Shigaraki was elated, All Might was in the presence of the class just as the schedule says. "Heroes... I can't stand it. That smile I want it gone and beaten to death. Kurogiri, spread the kids out. I want All Might to know how much he's helpless in saving his prized students. The Symbol of Peace will be brought down like the rest of this rotten society."

"Of course, Shigaraki." Kurogiri bowed, a sign of servitude to his master. Made of black mist, part of himself started swirling as a portal formed below.

Ayaka looked frightened at the moment before snapping away from her surprise. It was inevitable that she would cross paths with the Fatui and she knows all too well what Delusions can do.

She had one in possession and knew what a trained individual could do with one. She fought them back in Teyvat but this Fatui agent felt different.

"Teacher, how come the trespassing sensor isn't active?" Momo asked

Shoto concluded after a short analysis. "That's what the short shutdown of lights did. Someone among the Villains has a Quirk that blocks out electricity or something similar. This venue is far from the main school meaning they have planned this but for what I wonder?"

Everyone's spirit died down as Shoto said those last few words. "Let's go!" No. 13 announced. "Everyone head for the exit, Kaminari contact the school with your Quirk. I believe you can use it to communicate as Eraserhead says."

Denki lifts his fingers to his head, using the communication device present near his ear. "I can't! Something is messing with the signals as Todoroki said."

They all ran toward the exit, Ayaka still had looked behind to see what the Fatui agent would do, it was odd. He was waiting, not even trying to fight with Eraserhead who was pummeling the Villains.

"I can't let you all do that." a swirl of black mist appears on the ground in front before expanding into a portal where Kurogiri appears.

"A pleasure to meet you all. We are the League of Villains. Our unannounced entry into U.A. is to have one purpose only, to make All Might take his final breathe-"

"-Die!" Katsuki jumps forward with his hand up in the air, he feels his hand react with the nitroglycerin in his sweat before he targets Kurogiri himself.

*BOOM!*

"You think you bastards can just monologue in front of us?!" Katsuki screamed. "Did you really assume I would let you do that?!"

A lull in the fight started before Kurogiri came out of the massive explosion without much trouble. "That was close..." He stares into the class. "Golden eggs, everyone one of you - powerful but fledgling. My purpose here is to divide and conquer!"

"What the-!"

Ayaka sensed the danger, years of being honed in battle made her mind go into overdrive. She went for her Senho form, dissipating into untouchable frost as she escapes the smoke.

Everyone was suddenly subjected to a black mist rapidly expanding and enveloping everyone in the class. Gasps of horror and shock rang out from the students.

Tenya takes the nearest people he could save before he lunges outside along with some of the students. "Everyone!" Tenya echoed a pained shrill.

The black smog takes everyone away, only some being lucky or fast enough to react to the sudden expansion of black mist.

Ayaka exited her Senho form and narrowed her eyes on Kurogiri. The students left were few.

Tenya looked around and saw Mezo. "Shoji! Is everyone alright?! Are they here?!" he nervously asked.

Mezo used his Quirk to his best ability, looking and hearing with his enhanced appendages. "They're scattered but all of them are fine."

Ayaka unsheathed her sword while approaching Kurogiri. "Iida, if they were prepared enough to disable our communications then it'd be safe to assume they would hide him away. Run and tell the staff directly. I'll give you the opening."

"Kamisato! I can't just do that, I am a student and your classmate. I can't just leave you here!"

"Iida, I appreciate the thought but now's not the time to be a fool. We are in a battle, a real one. One kind you all have not faced before. President's orders, get to the school."

Tenya had confusion but respect, Ayaka had never been so serious about something. It was like a flame was lit in her. She was not wasting time and focused entirely on the battle, almost as if she had experienced actual fights.

This wasn't a battle simulator or a friendly training session. Ayaka's muscle memory knew by feeling it was a deadly clash.

"...Alright! If that is what I must do then I will perform it to the best of my abilities, President!"

Tenya crouches down for a speedy start, his Quirk roared that came from his engines, a blow of combustion running through his calves as he prepared to race for the exit.

Kurogiri lunges as soon as Tenya began to sprint. "Only a fool would formulate a plan right in front of an enemy!"

Ayaka thought to herself. 'They must not know who they were facing. Knowledge is the most important factor in a fight. They are prepared but not insightful, if they knew what I could do then they would've known I could use my Soumetsu.'

Ayaka retorts. "But he who is prudent and lies in wait for an enemy who is not will be victorious! Embrace the ice!"

Ice quickly formed, in a motion of a storm. Using her fine control of ice production she carefully crafts a blizzard that pushes away the smoke and overwhelms the front with ice.

The elemental burst was far but Kurogiri felt his mist flowing away. "Ghh!" Kurogiri struggles with the powerful blizzard. He repositions himself as Tenya starts speeding forward. "No! I won't let you!"

Ayaka had a theory in mind but she needed to find out for sure. "As I thought, you did have a body. So clever of you to hide it from us."

The warp gate user recoils back from attacking Tenya. He was panicked, not only had it been only a few seconds and he already blundered.

Kurogiri widened his eyes. "What?!" he involuntarily yelled out. Ayaka now had her answer. Deception is key and she did it in the middle of a battle with an opponent. Kurogiri had revealed from the alarm in his voice that indeed he had a weakness.

'So he does have a physical body, no wonder he was cautious when Bakugo blew him up. It was close to his real form. I'll do quick strikes to where his tendons could be, it could replace where his body is under all that mist. I still don't know how much of his body is actually physical.'

Ayaka rushes with ice propelling her forward. Kurogiri notices her, 'Damn... I can't believe someone figured it out so easily. I need to get out.'

Kurogiri blinds the area in a thick mist. Making Ayaka unable to see a short distance away. She closed the distance even further to see better.

As soon as Kurogiri finishes his preparations, Ayaka entered her Senho state and avoids him entirely. Ayaka reappears behind him and thrusts, taking Kurogiri by surprise.

Ayaka clasped her sword to her sheath, and the audible noise of a click was heard before Kurogiri only saw a glint from Ayaka's hand before she lets her sword out.

*SCHING!*

'He's... gone.' Ayaka looked to see him just in time to warp his physical body out along with the rest of himself, not taking the chance to get injured or worse captured.

"Iida. Go, I don't know if he would follow you out so be vigilant. I'm sure they will be alerted." Ayaka started heading down the flight of stairs.

"Kamisato? Where are you going? We need to evacuate, leave All Might and Eraserhead to the Villains." said No. 13. Ayaka stops from continuing to walk down.

"No, I can't let myself do that knowing the others are fighting for their lives. If you intend to punish me, do so later - I have a duty to carry through."

She speeds off into the center of battle where Shota was fighting multiple Villains, amazingly not killing them and only capturing them alive.

Ayaka reaches the battlefield, multiple eyes were on her. Taking their chances with the student rather than the Pro Hero, they start attacking her instead.

"Kamisato? What are you doing here? I thought I told you to evacuate." Aizawa says.

Ayaka went into a stance as she observes the Villains approaching. "Sorry, sir. I can't do that." a simple phrase was told.

Eraserhead pauses from combat and sees her stance, it was confident but reserved. Like she knew not to underestimate but knew that she could handle anything.

Shota sighs. "Fine, considering the situation - you problem children can't help it, just like All Might."

Ayaka focuses on her sword, she eyes each of the Villains going after her in an unorganized mob of people.

'Five, three on the left and two on the right. Do I freeze them in place? Take their tendons out? Maybe the heels? They are low-class Villains, they couldn't take one of those and I don't have a way to remove the ice later. The blunt side would do.'

*SCHING!*

In the blink of an eye, the Villains that were out to get her suddenly fell on the cold hard ground.

Aizawa saw Ayaka battling like she was a veteran, fluidly working her swing and transitioning into her ice if need be. Her Senho state was her most useful ability, dodging was a breeze and she exploited it.

Meanwhile, further away was All Might working against the monster that was Nomu. Only a few minutes have passed but they were locked in a stalemate.

At the same time Ayaka started to descend the stairs, Kurogiri came back to Tomura and broke the news. "I'm sorry, one of them is calling for help. This would be a good time to retreat and rethink our strategy."

"No... No... No... Kurogiri, we're so close." Tomura scratches his neck, flakes of skin and blood slightly seeping from irritation. "Now that you're here we just need to defeat the boss before the guild comes but Nomu can't CC him."

He notices the students on the water, hiding seemingly not noticing he had seen them. He then looks to the battlefield and clicks his tongue at the idle person.

"Hey, Kurogiri. Why is that one not doing anything? What's his name? I'm going to make an example out of him for being AFK. Can't he see that the raid is going well, I thought he was powerful?"

Kurogiri examines the man in question, "I do not know his name. He signed up for the operation early on but I never see him. I recall him signing up in Yokohama."

"Tch. Useless," he mutters while continuing to formulate a strategy to break the stalemate. "Maybe something to distract All Might will work."

Presently, the Fatui agent finally sees Ayaka attacking in the middle of the battle. He walks forward with a heavy step, intending to fight.

Ayaka sees the man approaching and holds her sword up. The agent raises his own weapon and activates his delusion while keeping the flames down. "You have something we need, it's not yours - hand it over. I know you have it on you since I bombed that place when I looked for it. Someone shouldn't get something that's beyond what they know."

Ayaka didn't budge from her stance and notices the way the Fatui talked to her. 'Does he not know that I'm from Teyvat? He's asking for it like I don't know what it is.'

Aizawa suddenly sees the Villain approaching and blinks, making his dry eyes moist again. Intending to silence the man's Quirk as he expects - he sprints forward but the man doesn't even glance at Eraserhead.

He whips his scarf forward, planning to wrap the Villain around and disable his Quirk. Shota stops and maneuvers his scarf in the air, ensnaring the Fatui agent in the durable cloth.

Ayaka knows that Delusions aren't Quirks, she wasn't even sure that Eraserhead could erase a Delusion away. "Eraserhead! Don't!" Ayaka warned.

She reaches out and tries to keep Shota from going further forward. Eraserhead looks at her and questions what she meant. He pulls hard on the scarf and lifts it afterward.

The Fatui agent gets sent to the air, Shota wanted to slam him into the ground just like every other lesser Villain he tried to fight.

Aizawa isn't usually one to give up but the distress in a usually calm and collected individual was making him have second thoughts.

Ayaka desperately grows ice underneath her, forming it to separate part of the scarf from Aizawa. "Glacier!"

It was going to be too late. The Fatui agent burns hotter and hotter than before. A flame ignites around the scarf before blasting outward at a massive magnitude.

"You really expect a capture tool like yours could stop the Tsaritsa's creation? Think again. You will feel my blades and flame scar your skin." he calmly spoke.

His Delusion hidden at the back of the base of his collar, obscured by his growing hair glowed brightly. The torrent of fire grows exponentially, threatening to incinerate all.

The industry-made metal woven into the scarf melted from the heat. Something specially made to resist fire was easily being burnt as if it wasn't made out of tough material and it made Aizawa startled.

Eraserhead sees his mistake and tries activating his Quirk. His eyes became red and part of his hair lift up for a millisecond before disaster struck.

It burned.

"Aaaaaaaaargh!" Shota screams out. A pain reaches around his neck and arms as he tries yanking the scarf away from himself. The smell of burnt flesh reached his nose. He clutches his arms while 3rd degree burns melted off parts of his skin and even reached his bones.

The man lands on his feet, cracking his knuckles as he stands back up. Nonchalant in his posture as he smiles from his handiwork.

In only a few seconds, Ayaka grew ice that finally separated the flames and blocked them but Shota was badly burnt. His indomitable will to fight was the only thing keeping his brain from going into shock.

"Sir Aizawa!" Ayaka creates a wall of frost around her, encasing them in solid ice as she cares for the badly injured teacher. "I'll cool your wounds down, hold still. Your harsher burns cauterized any bleeding and your nerve endings were burnt off but I can still cool the rest of your body."

Right outside the Fatui agent smirks and dusted himself off. The ash of Aizawa's scarf still clung to his clothes.

The Fatui applauds. "Well now. Your Quirk is nice, this wouldn't have happened if you just handed over what we wanted Kamisato." he unnervingly mentions her name making a chill go up her spine, they knew her.

Shota, with the last bit of consciousness he could still muster looks up from his burnt arms. "Kamisato? What is he talking about..." he winces in discomfort from the other burns he got. "Hnng... Move, I can take care of myself. I don't have my weapon anymore and my Quirk won't work on him..."

Ayaka nodded as the ice began to melt off from the heat that even Ayaka felt, it was warming her internal body temperature and was a time-sensitive hazard. She would need to make it quick or risk the Fatui winning a prolonged exchange.

She moves forward, separating the battle from her injured teacher, and took the fight to the Fatui agent.

The man slices across the air and a blade made of flames forms from the tips and launches out. Ayaka enters her Senho state and dodges while preparing her ice for an attack.

She exits her dash and unleashes a barrage of ice. "Glacier!" it erupts with ferocity and heads straight for the Fatui agent. The agent responds with his medium-scale attack.

A wall of flame collides with the ice and began unleashing large volumes of steam around them. Obscuring everything for a moment before Ayaka creates her burst.

"Kamisato Art: Soumetsu!"

She launches the blizzard with her ice-formed fan in her hands toward a stood still figure. A long feeling second goes by and the blizzard seemingly tears the figure apart.

Ayaka had her instincts flare up as she reaches for her katana and blocked behind her. A harsh clinch was heard from the two weapons sliding across each other.

They separate after the parry, the Fatui agent blasts his flames as he retreats and recuperates while Ayaka kept feeling the increasing heat. 'How strong is this flame? I would die if my internal body temperature reaches too high.'

"Well, I certainly underestimated you. To think you reacted from one of my clones fast enough to parry my blindside slash. I feel sorry for involving a non-factor in our inner dispute, but I'll have to take what's ours off you from the morgue."

Ayaka redoubles her efforts and prepares to charge an attack when the Fatui agent approaches. Fire gets spawned across the battlefield in a bright light that made Ayaka's ice less effective.

The Fatui agent dashes forward with fire now surrounding every part of his body and blade. It was going to be dangerous for Ayaka, one small mistake could burn her the same way her teacher was.

She surrounds herself in ice, she felt the heat making her feel worse. Combating its effects by adding an extra layer of protection would be her best bet otherwise she would die from just overheating. Though she couldn't cool her own body down because of her inherent resistance to the cold.

It was by chance that Ayaka had faced someone who was a counter to her Vision. A fight that she was going to have great difficulty in.

Ayaka parries the first strike which was followed by a cut across her legs, she lifts it and countered by straightening her sword to his face.

The Fatui reacts fast and tilts his head to the side, Ayaka's blade then swings downward but was stopped short when a sudden flash of fire expands from the man.

Ayaka blocks the fire with her ice, desperately producing more ice that kept melting but the opening created made her lose focus on the Fatui agent. He reappears to the left of her but then, multiple copies one after the other show up.

They all circle, confusing her since she lost where he was for a moment. Each clone mirrored the original's movement to the point where they were undiscernible.

'Which one is the real one?' Before she even got a chance to think every single one of the charges forward. She goes into Senho form to escape the encirclement and reappears a distance away.

"Troublesome." the Fatui says before he crouches low and spins fire on his blades. The clones behind him followed his every action, even the generation of flames.

Ayaka felt the heat, it was overpowering the ice she had. It kept melting away and weakening from the sheer temperature the man was making.

'I can't use my ice... I need something more powerful...' she felt the Delusion under her sleeve activate. 'Ghh! ...It's hard to keep using them both.'

Ayaka had no choice but to call upon Anemo. It was a risk considering prolonged use was negative for her. She didn't even know what would happen if she goes over the limit.

The ice around her swirled faster and faster, bolstered by the effects of her Anemo. She felt her mind go heavy, a small nosebleed came out as she focuses her blade. The wind started to redirect the flames away and make the cold she made more pronounced.

The Fatui agent came to blows with Ayaka, with all his 6 clones aiming for her head and Ayaka trying to overwhelm his flames and cripple him with a flurry of strikes.

"As one with wind and cloud. Kaedehara Art: Slash of a Thousand Leaves!"

The Fatui agent's brow twitched as he strikes at Ayaka before being blown away in a gust of intense wind and ice. The combination of the two elements extinguishes the seemingly powerful flames, surprising the Fatui agent.

The entire flame-ridden battlefield gets replaced with a beautiful array of wind that swirled and fused with Ayaka's ice. The entirety of the USJ feels the cold being carried over by the breeze of frost.

"Powerful... Ack!" the Fatui Agent feels his abdomen bleed and he checks to see it under his shirt. From the short exchange, he managed to avoid a majority of the slashes but one had a glancing blow.

"Tch!" he clicked his tongue. The relaxed expression on his face turned into worry and scorn. He wills his clones to do a final attack, and a whirlwind of frost and a hellfire of intense burns came from the two.

Ayaka felt voices in her head speak, and involuntarily desire her to do everything in her power to defeat the Fatui agent. The Delusion began to grow an eerie light as she follows what wrath her Delusion was surfacing.

The two varieties of elements finally meet together in the middle. From the outside perspective, it looked like hell had descended on the left side of the USJ while a bitter everlasting winter swirled on the right.

Their blades went forward, the elements behind them following through with their actions. They collide in a barrage of intense heat and cold

The entire USJ gets subjected to rapidly changing temperatures. The other students already evacuated but many could feel and hear the intensity of the battle. Only a while ago did Tsuyu see Aizawa's crippled state and took him in while she escaped and evacuated the school.

The elements beat down and fight against each other while the two exchange blows. Ayaka's forearm gets a deep cut but the Fatui agent's right calf gets sliced across. They both disengage and check their wounds.

'This is too much even for me. I can fight Cryo but my flames get redirected with the wind.' He notices Ayaka stressing under the effects of the Delusion, one would think she was weakened but the Fatui agent sees differently. 'How... That Delusion should have immediate effects on the uninitiated. Unless..'

He gasps and yells to Ayaka. "You're one of us aren't you? Far away from your home and separated from everyone and everything you loved." his tone wasn't harsh but one with genuine relief and joy.

Ayaka stops her attack and doesn't react instantly, lest she reveals something by accident. "Apologies for not understanding what you mean. I hardly can focus on anything other than the fight we are engaged in."

"Don't bother denying, that Delusion you have is supposed to cripple a non-Fatui member's mental state - turning them into a mindless sack of meat in mere seconds. We tested it before on a lowly criminal, yet here you are standing even though it has been minutes. You know what a Delusion is, don't you? Allogene."

An Allogene, blessed by the gods and recognized for their achievements. One of the Vision holders' moniker back in Teyvat.

The Delusion on the agent's back starts circling flame around him. "We'll meet again, now that I know who you truly are. We are not your enemies for we too want to return to our world. It's been so long since we've been active in this place."

"Return?" Ayaka blurted out. "...How? What do you mean?" she feels her voice falter. A chance to go back was like a light in an expanse of darkness. A hope that she felt that one day she could do the same. But is that what she wished? To leave the place she created a new life for her old one?

"Sadly, our time will be running short, disclosing our plans would be foolish. I do not want to face someone who can control both elements. Your Vision is lacking but I can see that the effects of the Delusion aren't there, curious."

He fully extinguishes his flame and suddenly starts turning invisible. Only an ember appears before he disappears.

Ayaka closes her eyes and feels the wind around her, it took a while but the scent of the man carries through the wind. Just as Kazuha described back in Teyvat. 'He's running in the direction of All Might!'

Unknown to her, the Delusion started exploiting her feelings the moment it was used for even a minute more. Unlike the Fatui who trained their whole lives for a Delusion, Ayaka only had a few moments to even activate it. She let it become part of her abilities, in the hopes she would win.

This was going to be her mistake, one that she would remember for a long time.
