The symbol of peace must die…
"Villains? No way! What kinda numbskull could think honest-to-goodness villains would be able to just waltz into the hero home base?" said Dunce face.
"Sensei," said Ponytail, "What about the intruder alarm sensors?"
"Of course we have some set up," said 13, "but…"
"Is this the only campus they've infiltrated, or are they attacking all the others too?" said Icyhot."At any rate, if the sensors aren't responding, that just means they must have one amongst their number who has a quirk that can do that. An isolated space away from the school building, at a time when there's a class scheduled…it may seem out of the question but they must have some solid objective. This isn't an ambush without some carefully planned scheme behind it.
"#13," said Mr. Aizawa, "Do the evacuation procedure and try calling the school. These villains know how to get around the sensors. There's a chance there's an electrowave type who'll try interfering. Kaminari, you too. Try contacting UA with your quirk."
"Sensei!" cried Deku. "Are you gonna fight them alone? Even if you surprise all of their quirks, there's so many of them. The battle style of Eraserhead is to capture villains after erasing their quirks. Meaning, the main battle starts now!"
Mr. Aizawa turned back to him, his goggles now on. "A hero always has more than one trick up their sleeves. 13, I'm counting on you." With that, he kept down the dias and went straight to the villains. Within seconds, he'd taken out at least five, like a real, well, pro.
Meanwhile, 13 was evacuating our class, as we followed them to the front door. Just as we were headed to evacuate though…the black mist guy sprung up in front of us, like a barrier to the doorway.
"I'm afraid I can't allow that," he hissed in a deep, dark, scary voice. "Greetings. We are the League of Villains. I apologize for the presumption, but we took it upon ourselves to enter UA, this school of heroes, in order to engage with All Might, the symbol of peace. We were hoping to get the opportunity to extinguish him, you see. Wasn't All Might meant to be in attendance right now? Has something been altered? Well, setting that aside, this is my role," he said, and suddenly the black mist was moving, surrounding us all.
Yeah, that's what you think.
I launched myself over at the mist freak, and Weird Hair followed me. I landed a blast on him and Weird Hair a punch.
"Bet you didn't think we'd be able to do you in before you go the chance!" he said.
"That was close," murmured the mist guy. "To be expected, to you may be mere students, you are also the hero world's golden eggs."
"It's no use, just run!" shouted 13. "Run, you two!"
The mist surrounded us again, and the voice echoed, "You will be scattered and tortured to death." The noise resounded all around us. Somehow, our hits hadn't done anything to him, and before I knew it, Weird Hair and me had fallen onto the ground in the Collapsed zone, into some building, and were suddenly surrounded by tons of villains.
Oh, please. Like a bunch of villains were gonna stop me, now that I'd heard about their plan. No way they were gonna kill the symbol of peace on my watch. Time for those damn villains to die.
"Is that all of 'em?" said Weird hair, out of breath.
"Man, they were weak," I said, bored with our lame adversaries.
"Come on, we gotta go save the others!" he continued. "Since we got warped here, that must mean the others are also still inside the USJ. I'm worried for the people without many battle moves! We rushed ahead to attack, so 13 was forced to hang back and play rear guard. If they'd been able to suck up that black mist, things wouldn't have turned out like this. As men, we need to talk responsibility…."
Condescending loser. "If you wanna go, go by yourself. I'm gonna go murder that warp gate motherfucker."
"Now out of all times, you come out with lines like a little kid? Plus, physical attacks against that guy are -"
"Shut it!" I snapped. "He's the enemies' escape h watch, their revolving door, so I'll pin him down so they can't escape! There's no way there isn't some way to counter him."
I stopped for a sec to blast a dumb villain that tried to sneak up on me. "I mean, if he assigned these useless looks to us, it oughta be fine."
"You mean that's why you're so calm and rational?" asked Weird hair. "You're normally all, 'die'! and stuff.
"I'm always calm, you fucking hair-for-brains!" I snapped, and he smirked like he ws trying to annoy me.
"Just fuck off alread,y" I told him.
"Wait up! It sounds ike you're saying you believe in our classmates," he said to me, "And that's thinking like a man."
Well, he wasn't wrong…against folks like IcyHot, Round Face, even Deku with his damn new quirk, these villains were nothing. No way they'd be a threat to the symbol of freaking peace.
When I arrived, there he was…running straight at the warp guy, as if about to jump - straight into that warp gate, putting his live in danger.
"Outta the fucking way, Deku!" I called at him, slamming the villain to the ground just in time to stop that damn nerd from getting eaten alive thanks to his own stupidity. Not that I was worried, or anything.
Ice sounds nearby told me IcyHot had showed up too, freezing the stupid brain villain holding All Might down in place.
"I heard about your plan," he was saying (IcyHot). "About each of your roles n the scheme to kill All Might."
Weird Hair, who'd followed me, jumped at the hand villain and missed like a moron. "Shit, I had him!"
"No funny business out of you," I snapped at the damn warp guy, "You shadow-ass mobbing!"
"The symbol of peace won't go down as easy as you clowns," said IcyHot.
"Kacchan, everyone!" called out Deku. Stalker as always, always looking at me…
All four of us looked over at the damn hand villain. All might was out of the brain guy's grip.
Hand guy was freaking out a little. He said to me, "You pinned down our revolving door. Well now, this is quite the pinch."
"Just as I thought,"I grinned to myself. "This prick was never all that sharp. If your body was just mist and physical attacks couldn't hurt it, you'd never have said 'that was close'. It was easy to guess that's why you're wearing that neck armor. Don't move. The second you so much as twitch, I'll loud you with a nice little explosion, right here and now!"
"Not a very heroic line there, buddy," said Weird Hair. Shut up.
Hand guy said, "We've been cornered, and what's more, you're all nearly unscathed. I have to hand it to kids these days. At this rate, the League of villains will be a laughing stock. Nomu, go ahead and finish explosion boy over there. Gotta get our warp gate back."
I tensed up, watching for what the brain guy was about to do. He pulled himself, frozen leg and all, through the warp and his body broke in two.
"Wait, how is he moving?" cried out Deku. "Didn't "Didn't half of his body snap?"
"Stand back, all of you!" said All Might. Then, to Shigaraki, "I thought his power was shock absorption!"
"I never said that was his only quirk," said Shigaraki. The broken limbs regenerated in seconds from where they'd snapped. "As you can see, he's also got super regeneration. Nomu is a human sandbank artificially crafted to the height of physical fitness to withstand your 100%."
In a flash, the brain villain was coming straight at me. I barely had time to register it, barely had time to realize what was happening, when All Might tossed me out of the way. Through the chaos, I could her Deku calling out "Kacchan!" in a panic…I was sitting on the ground, behind him, with the others where the blast had thrown us backwards.
"You dodged him?" asked Deku. "Wow!"
"No, you idiot," I told him. I couldn't see him at all…
All Might was panting and out of breath.
"Do you know no mercy?" he asked Hand Face.
"WE had no choice," he replied. "We had to save our ally, didn't we? And not long ago, one of your kids over there…ah, the plain looking one," he said, pointing at Deku. "He tired to beat me up with all his strength. And for who do you think he mustered such touching acts of violence? Hm, hero? Listen here, All Might, that makes me angry. We're all categorized as either heroes or villains, but at the end of the day violence is violence. And who gets to decide right and wrong? Society does! The symbol of peace? Give me a break! You're nothing more than a bludgeon of oppression yourself. Violence only breeds more violence. And once we kill you, that'll be made known to the world."
"You're mad," said All Might. "Criminals like you, you always try to make your actions sound noble, but admit it, you're only doing this because you like it."
"Saw right through me," said Shigaraki.
"It's 3 on 5," said IcyHot
"And Kacchan exposed the Shadow Guy's weak point!" chirped Deku.
"These guys are outrageous, but if we give all Might some support, we'll send em packing, no problem!" agreed Weird Hair. But there was something going on…
"No!" said All Might, sticking his hand out. "Please escape!"
"If I hadn't come to support you earlier, you'd have been in real trouble." snapped IcyHot
"All Might," said Deku, "You're bleeding, and shouldn't you already be out of ti - "
Huh?
"Right you are, young Todoroki!" said All Might, distracting me. "And thank you! But it'll be OK now. All you need to do is watch a pro show you how it's done."
"Nomu, Kurogiri," said Shigaraki. "Kill him. I'll deal with the children. Let's clear the game and end this level!"
He was running straight at us. "He's coming," said Weird Hair. "Brace yourselves!"
Before we know it, All Might had met the Brain Villain's punch head on with a giant shock wave throw punch.
"I told you before!" said Shigaraki, turning back to All Might, "He has Shock absorption!"
"Yeah, what about it?" replied All Might. And he kept on going, hitting that creature with so much force that we could feel it in our bones. "A hero is someone who smashes through every obstacle life puts his way!"
He's injured…he's injured because…because he had to save me. Because I didn't move fast enough, and now he's throwing himself into some real trouble, all to protect us…because of…
"You may have heard these words before, but I'll show you what they really mean!" said All Might. "Go beyond, PLUS ULTRA!" And with that, he blasted the Nomu with a final blow that threw it through the glass ceiling and of into the sky.
I couldn't quite believe what I'd just seen.
"What is this, a comic?" cried Weird Hair. "It's like he pounded the shock absorption right out of him!"
"He must have been punching him so fast he couldn't regenerate," I murmured, still in shock.
So this is the world of the pros…
Through the smoke, we heard him say "I really have gotten weaker. In my heyday, 5 hits would have knocked that guy out. But today it took more than 300 mighty blows." He turned to face Shigaraki. "Now then, villain, let's end this."
