Emerging from the swirling portal and standing around were enough villains to fill Class 1-A almost six times over, and there were villains of varying shapes and sizes. Some were slim, whilst others had bulging muscles; others had gun barrels at their fingertips, another had nail which were long and curved like the scythe of the Grim Reaper and one appeared to have a rocky body whilst possessing four arms, and others just held knives.
"Hey, this is crazy. There's no way these guys could just waltz into U.A. just like that, right?" Denki inquired, unable to hide his fear.
"Thirteen-sensei," Momo called, the shakiness of her voice betraying the unperturbed facial expression she wore, "surely this place has motion sensors, yes?"
"We do, but you can't track something that passes through a portal..." Thirteen murmured.
Itachi glanced at his sister, took her hand and then started tapping in Morse code on the back of her hand, "Calm down, Momo. Panic will not help us here. Stay calm and we'll get through this."
She squeezed his hand and tapped back, "Thank you, Itachi."
Itachi would never admit it out loud, but he enjoyed the rush through his system. Yes, he was a man of peace, but that didn't mean he couldn't enjoy a fight. This feeling of danger was something he hadn't felt since he fought to the death against Sasuke. It was borderline euphoric, but to lose oneself in battle was wrong.
Succumbing to the bloodlust and the thrill of the fight got good fighters killed when they got carried away.
"We don't know if they're only attacking here or the entire school," Shoto stated, the temperature around him dropping, "and if the sensors aren't working, then they must have someone jamming the signal. But to attack an isolated class when they knew our schedule, they must have a definite objective."
"Isn't it obvious?" Itachi murmured, staring at the massive creature with a beak full of teeth.
Tsuyu glanced at him, "What do you mean, Yaoyorozu-chan, ribbit?"
"That hulking creature," the Sharingan quirk user said, pointing at the inhuman creature, "it's no ordinary person and if my hunch is correct, it's probably undergone extensive genetic modification. These villains haven't come without a clear plan and the villain with the hands got upset about the lack of All Might. Clearly, they're hear to kill the Symbol of Peace."
The class suddenly became apprehensive.
"No way," Eijiro said, though he sounded unsure of himself, "All Might's on another level. Nobody can kill him."
"To be able to take on All Might, the creature would have to..." Izuku spiralled down into his pit of muttering that infuriated Katsuki.
"Thirteen, start the evacuation procedure," Aizawa ordered, preparing for a fight, "and try contacting the school. If the sensors are being disrupted, then the villains probably have someone with an electromagnetic-based quirk. Kaminari, use your quirk to contact the school."
"Iida-kun," Momo spoke, "out of all of us, you're the fastest, Use your quirk to leave the building, get to U.A. and bring all the teachers back. We need reinforcements."
"But-"
"Do it now!" Momo demanded, her voice leaving no room for argument as Tenya fired up his quirk and ran back towards the entrance.
"Oi, Kurogiri," the hands villain muttered, "that kid is leaving the deathmatch. Go stop him before he disconnects."
The portal shrunk until a shadow-like humanoid figure with a metal brace around the neck area formed, the glowing eyes tilted in a manner that indicated shame, "I-I can't, Eraserhead had disabled my quirk."
"For fucks sake, Kurogiri, if you weren't also my way out of here, I'd kill you right here and now. Also, disabled? What kind of quirk is Warp Gate; look at yourself, isn't it a mutant-type?"
"No, sir, it's an emitter-type."
"Dammit!" The hands villain started to furiously scratch his neck.
"Sensei," started a panicked Izuku, "are you going to fight them alone? There's too many of them for Erasure to be effective. And you rely on a fighting style best suited for on one-on-one fights."
Aizawa scoffed, "Don't be foolish, Midoriya, no good hero is a one-trick pony."
And with that, he leapt into the fray. Several of the villains tried attacking to the former, only to realized who he was when they couldn't use their quirks against him, but by then, it was already too late and they were unconscious. A rock-skinned villain attacked Aizawa next, claiming that the man couldn't fight at all against mutant-type quirks. He was quickly proven wrong when Aizawa got within his guard, poked his eyes to blind him and then used his capture weapon to fling him into another villain; then ducked under a punch to the back of the head and quickly disposed of the villain who tried to get him from behind.
"Wow, sensei's fighting style is so cool. I almost forgot that he excels at fighting against groups." Izuku muttered, doe-eyed with shock.
"Midoriya-kun, this is no time for-"
Itachi blinked, "Mo-chan, where did the portal villain go?"
"I... I didn't even see when he moved. Everyone, be on guard!" Momo called, jerking back at Kurogiri materialized in-front of them and spread his shadowy mass to obscure Aizawa from view as he stared down at them.
"Greetings," Kurogiri started respectfully, "it's a shame that one of you was able to get away, but we are the League of Villains. I apologize for our presumptuousness, but we have allowed ourselves into U.A. for the sake of extinguishing All Might's life. Please, tell us where he is and we may let you live."
Thirteen stepped forwards, one of the glove tips folding back as she extended her arm towards Kurogiri who began to spread out his form.
"I've got-" She cut herself off, the glove tip flipping back down into place as Katsuki and Eijiro lunged past her. The former unleashed a colossal explosion that obscured the shadowy villain from view, while Eijiro threw a punch that was easily evaded.
"Both of you, get away, it's not use!" Thirteen called.
"Heh, I bet you didn't expect us to do anything before you could make a move." Eijiro called boastfully.
The shadowy mass that made up Kurogiri had been scattered, but quickly reformed as the villain stared down at the blond, "My my, that was a close call. But I suppose I shouldn't have expected anything less from U.A.'s students, even if you are nothing more than children."
'That was a close call?' Itachi thought, narrowing his eyes, 'From the tone of his voice, that sounded genuinely honest. Is that metal bracer a weak point? Is it what keeps him intact?'
"Bakugo-kun-"
"Fuck off, Trench Face, I know what I just heard." Katsuki snapped, eyeing Kurogiri's neck brace.
"I apologise for this, but you will be scattered and tortured." Kurogiri said; then the entire class let out panicked gasps as Kurogiri surged forwards and engulfed them all in his shadowy form, first swamping over Katsuki who let off another explosion to try and prevent his spread as Eijiro yelled out and grabbed his shoulder.
"Bakugo!"
As the screams of his classmates echoed through his skull and his Sharingan darted around rapidly, trying to discern any structure to the darkness, Itachi was suddenly aware that he was no longer on solid ground.
He looked down and suddenly realised that he was falling.
Falling straight into the crowd of villains that Aizawa was fighting. Taking a quick look around, Itachi couldn't see any of his classmates and surmised that the shadowy villain must've warped his classmates to other parts of the facility and looked back down when he heard several villains below him hollering and laughing.
"Hey look, one of the brats is falling towards us!"
"He's small fry!"
"Let's kill him."
One female villain looked up at him and smirked as green fire swamped her left hand.
Her face fell a second later when her quirk fizzled out of existence and Itachi dropkicked her in the face, breaking her nose as he did so with his downwards momentum carrying them both downwards until he drove the back of her skull into the floor with a sickening 'Crack'.
Quickly leaping away from her when it became evident the female villain wouldn't be getting back up, Itachi settled into a fighting stance as several of the other villains rushed him.
"You're outta luck, kid. It's nothin' personal, but you've gotta die." One of them said, a man who looked entirely like a mantis shrimp.
Itachi leant back, narrowly avoiding having his throat slit by a man with chainsaw blades for arms. He ducked under a swipe and punched the man in the stomach; then jumped over a fleshy whip that tried to wrap itself around his legs and unsheathed his katana so he could block a downwards strike from Chainsaw Arms who began applying his superior weight into their lock.
Nothing bothering to try and resist - knowing he'd only be wasting energy in doing so - Itachi broke the blade lock and leapt to one side, allowing Chainsaw Arms to grunt and fall past him. He pivoted on one foot and kicked the man in the back and then swung his katana and split the incoming fleshy whip in two.
He traced it back to a woman who looked unfazed by the damage done to her quirk as the fleshy whip separated along the cut and became two whips attached to her left hand. As she lashed out at him once more, Itachi bisected one of the fleshy tendrils and jerked his head to one side as the tip of the cracked against the air where his face had been half a second earlier.
"Sorry about this, brat, I don't like hurting kids, but we can't have you around when we get on with killing All Might." Whip Hands said, smiling at him as she backed away, as did several of the other villains.
Itachi turned his see the mantis shrimp villain thrust his arm out at blinding speeds - so fast that his two tomoe Sharingan nearly failed to keep up. The air in-front of the man's arm ignited from the sheer amount of speed he punched the air with, much like that of a firearm's muzzle blast, and Itachi could do nothing but stand there as a blast of air that felt like it'd came out of an oven launched him off his feet, blasting him over towards Aizawa.
The Sharingan's predictive abilities were all well and good, but pointless when your body was unable to keep up with what it was seeing.
He soon came to a halt at Aizawa's feet. His homeroom teacher disposed of another villain and his hair fell around his face as his quirk deactivated, but he didn't look down at his student.
"Yaoyorozu, are you okay?" The pro hero inquired.
Itachi grunted as he picked himself up, "I'm fine. I don't know where the other students are, thought, but I assume they've been scattered elsewhere."
"Focus on yourself for now," Aizawa stated, his hair rising once more as he moved and pummelled another villain into unconsciousness as there was a tremendous 'BOOM' to the east which was followed by the sounds of screams and a violent rush of water, "we have many opponents to deal with at the moment."
Shoto Todoroki was stuck in the landslide zone without any backup and he was incredibly disappointed by his opposition.
He'd been dropped into the unfamiliar area and swarmed by a bunch of villains who made the mistake of thinking they could take him on without using their quirks, so he simply froze them all.
Dropping to the floor, he immediately sent forth a wave of ice that engulfed all those who stood in-front of them. Then, he turned to the man to his right and unleashed more ice to encase him; then jerked to one side to avoid being speared through the back of the head and froze the spear and the man holding it.
His fight with them was over as quickly as it started.
"You should all be ashamed of yourselves," he said, shattering a frozen spear as he glared at one of them men who had been encased up to his neck; body steaming as he melted away any frost build-up, "look at you. You're all grown men, but you can't handle a child like myself. And you call yourselves villains? Reconsider your life choices."
"P-Please... have m-mercy." The villain begged, glancing frantically at his frozen accomplices.
"Mercy. Would you have shown me mercy if you'd gotten your hands on me?" Shoto inquired, stopping just before the man and holding his right hand up to his face, cold air emanating from his hand, "I could leave you to freeze to death, but I'm not a villain; however, I do have a question for you. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer, then I'll freeze your tongue and keep it frozen until you lose it, understand."
The villain blanched and Shoto didn't even blink as the smell of urine wafted into his nostrils.
"Y-Yeah, g-go on, ask a-away. I-I'll tell y-you anything you w-want to know."
Shoto moved his hand slightly closer, "Tell me this. What makes you think worthless punks like you can kill All Might, and if he was here, how would you intend to kill him?"
Mashirao was not having a good time.
He'd been dropped into a city that was on fire. All he could see was fire, fire and even more fire; hear nothing but the jeering of villains who were trying their hardest to kill him and fire; smell and taste burned materials and smoke that was no doubt toxic, and feel the heat lapping at his skin, begging him to become a temporarily source of fuel for it to grow by a marginal amount.
Most of the villains he would have no problem dealing with, for they had mutant-type quirks like he did, but there was also a villain keeping him on his feet for she could manipulate fire, but not create it like Endeavor could - not that it made much of a difference given how there was fire everywhere.
And for that, he'd mentally tagged her as Discount Endeavor.
'I really don't like fire. It's hot, scary, occasionally uncontrollable and it leaves you dehydrated when around it for too long.' He thought, hoping he wouldn't have to stay in the Conflagration Zone for much longer.
He spun around, allowing his tail to smack into a villain charging at him from his left side. The man dropped to the floor and Mashirao leapt back, avoiding the knife thrust at him by another villain and threw a retaliatory punch breaking the man's nose. He let out a cry and dropped the knife, which the tailed boy kicked away and then jumped, twisting in mid-air so his tail slammed into the man's head and knocked him out cold.
Mashirao sighed as he heard the roar of approaching flames.
Turning around and seeing a stream of fire rushing forwards him, he leapt towards a lamppost. The fire changed direction and he was forced to leap from the lamppost base to the side of a building; then jump away from that and land back on pavement as fire soared over his head, shot into the sky and dissipated.
He and Discount Endeavor had been going at this for a while now. He'd take down a few villains and then be forced to leap around as fire chased him.
Mashirao suspected that she enjoyed taunting him and knew that if she really wanted to, she would gather all the fire in the surrounding area and burn him to a crisp.
The blond watched as she approached him from down the street, arms held out to the side as fire danced between her fingers. A mocking smile was on her face as she snapped her fingers, sending two streams of flames rushing past him..
He didn't flinch, refusing to give her the satisfaction of her seeing him fearing for his life.
"It's been fun playing with you dear, but the boss might need my help with killing All Might. I can't play around with you any-" she was cut off as a blue laser crashed into her right side and threw her into a building, instantly knocking her unconscious.
Mashirao felt his shoulders sag with relief as Yuga came running out from another street.
"Does moi not get a thank you," Yuga started, posing as he sparkled dramatically, "I would've hid, but I saw you having problèmes."
Mashirao nearly rolled his eyes, hoping heat stroke would claim him so he wouldn't have to listen to the irritating Japanese-French boy, 'Oh geez, I got stuck of Aoyama-san of all people. I wonder how Yaoyorozu-kun and Yaoyorozu-san are doing...'
Momo had no plan to get herself, Kyoka and Denki out of the situation that they were in at the Mountain Zone.
She would've had a plan, but there was no time to think when thirty people were trying to murder her and Denki was being completely useless as he whimpered and ran away from a large villain who made a grab at him.
At the moment, she was just going with the flow.
Explosives are out of the questions. Being this close, I'd only blow up myself, the other two and the villains, the wrong dose of neurotoxin would be lethal and may take too long for its effects to kick in and chemical weapons are illegal," Momo thought, biting her lip as she grasped her metallic stuff tighter, 'I can create virtually anything with Creation, but what could get us out of here? Come on, Momo, think but don't overthink!'
"Kaminari," Kyoka yelled as she blasted soundwaves at several of the villains, "Stop running like pansy and start fighting! Shock these bastards into submission!"
Momo deflected a knife thrust and swung the staff into the offender's face. He crumpled to his knees as she knocked out several of his teeth and then flopped to the floor as Momo brought the staff down upon his head. She furrowed her brows and swung at another approaching villain, bringing him to a halt as she struck between his legs before swinging the staff into his face, also taking him out of the fight.
"I can only discharge electricity," Denki replied, his hands buzzing with electricity, "I can't release and direct it like Endeavor can with fire. If I let loose a massive shock, I'd end up hurting you guys too. And with the signal being jammed, I can't call for help. I'm relying on you guys to help me out."
'Electricity... oh! I'll create an insulation sheet and Kaminari-kun can shock these guys into oblivion." Momo thought, preparing to use Creation as she ran through the make-up of an electrical insulation sheet in her head.
"Enough with the excuses. Stop being a dumbass, get in there and fight!" Kyoka sparta-kicked Denki into a massive villain who roared; body seizing up as electricity coursed through his system.
"Oh, would you look at that, this works." Denki replied, looking back and giving them a thumbs up.
Several other villains backed away as the largest of them - who Denki had been kicked into - fell to the floor, a lightly charred mess.
Denki let out a horrified yelp as one of the villains sent a fleshy appendage with a boulder attached to the end of it his way. A high-pitched screech jolted his ears and the rock shattered an inch from his face, but the appendage continued forwards and hit him in the face, prompting an electrical current to flow through it and shock the villain who tried to murder him.
"Holy shit, thanks for the assist, Jiro." He said, eyes as wide as saucers.
Kaminari," Kyoka snapped, unleashing more soundwaves which had villains clutching their heads in pain, "what did I say? Less talking and more shocking."
Another villain yelped, falling to the floor and convulsing as he was trapped under an electrified net Momo had launched at him.
"Jiro-san, I appreciate that you're trying to get Kaminari-kun to help out," Momo started, scowling at their quarrelling as she kicked another villain in the stomach and then grabbed the back of his head and kneed him in the face, "but that was completely unnecessary. Besides, I'm ready!"
Kyoka glanced at her, "Huh, ready for-"
She flinched as Momo leant forwards so her back was parallel to the ceiling of the U.S.J; a massive sheet erupting out of her back and destroying her costume in the process. Kyoka had no time to question it as Momo pulled her underneath the sheet.
"Ugh, it takes a while to create something this big," Momo muttered, "even longer when I have to stop the process and create something else in the meantime."
"Yaomomo... y-you... y-you're-"
"What you're looking at is an insulation sheet, at least 100mm think. Under this, Kaminari-kun couldn't hurt us, no matter how hard he tried, now go wild." Momo said, peeking out from underneath the sheet.
"You got it, Class Prez," Denki smirked as he turned to the rest of villains who paled in horror as the air became heavy with the smell of ozone, "I hope you guys are ready! Indiscriminate Shock: 1.3 Million Volts!"
Anyone looking in from nearby would see nothing but a blindingly bright yellow flash.
The area surrounding Denki was filled to the brim with electricity as the sheer amount of voltage released ionized the air around him, releasing enough energy to make the surrounding atmosphere conductive as the atomic balance of oxygen was thrown off as they gained an electron from other disrupted oxygen atoms, cooking the villains into groaning, charred lumps.
Momo allowed a few seconds to pass before lifting up the sheet and saw Denki stumbling around with his thumbs up and mumbling 'Yaayyyy' over and over again.
"With that over, I can finally start thinking about the others," Momo said as Kyoka let out a noise of horror behind her, "I'm sure they can all handle themselves, but I'm still worried for their safety."
"Y-Yaomomo, your o-outfit, it's b-been torn up." Kyoka stammered, blushing.
Momo turned to her, seemingly indifferent to the destruction of her costume, "And?
'WHAT DO YOU MEAN AND? THIS IS NOT THE TIME NOR PLACE FOR CASUAL NUDITY, WOMAN!' Kyoka thought, trying and failing in her efforts to not stare at Momo's generously ample chest, "W-Well, I-I..."
"Don't worry about it," The Creation quirk user replied nonchalantly, casually tearing her ruined outfit away, prompting Kyoka to let out of choke of horror, as her entire body began to glow with multicoloured lights, "I can make another one."
Kyoka quickly hugged her as a braindead Denki wander past, "KAMINARI, DON'T LOOK!"
"Yaaayyyy..."
It had taken Aizawa and Itachi less than five minutes to dispatch most of the villains, with a few who seemed to be wary of losing their quirks and getting pounded into the dirt keeping their distance, all the while the villain with the hands kept muttering various times underneath his breath and Itachi soon realised he was keeping track of how long Aizawa could keep Erasure active for.
He'd started at 49 seconds and had made his way down to 23 seconds.
Itachi kept a wary eye focused on the hulking creature, but it simply stood there as if waiting for orders to be provided.
The raven-haired ex-shinobi had already deduced that the creature had superhuman strength, but to keep up with someone as powerful as All Might, it had to have durability and speed also. Durable so it could take All Might's punches without going down in one or two hits and throw punches of its own without ending up like Izuku, and speed so it could keep up with him, and from the muscle mass of the creature, Itachi knew his density seals wouldn't work on it.
It'd be like an ant trying to bite a giant.
"Sensei." Itachi called, stomping on the face of a villain who appeared to be getting back up and watching as the blue-haired villain suddenly rushed towards them.
"Yaoyorozu, stay back and try to handle the rest, I've got this." Aizawa replied, launching his capture weapon at the villain who grabbed hold of it.
Itachi narrowed his eyes as various villains encircled him, including the ones who'd attacked him before.
The Pistol Shrimp villain smirked as he raised his arm again, with Chainsaw Arms, Whip Hands and Green Fire Lady all stood behind him; the lattermost looked incredibly disgruntled about the growing bruise on her.
"Hey, kid, I'm going to fry you for breaking my nose." She sneered at him.
"You're welcome to try." Itachi replied, flinging his density seals into Pistol Shrimp's chest and face. The man jerked back and crumpled to the floor, and then a pained groan from Aizawa compelled him to turn and see what the issue was.
Itachi saw the blue-haired villain holding onto Aizawa's elbow which was flaking and crumbling away, revealing muscle and bone underneath, but the pro hero didn't waste any time - upon realising how much danger he was in - reactivating Erasure and punching the villain with his good arm.
Aizawa quickly backpedalled to make distance between them, his right arm hanging limp by his side, before being forced to defend himself as additional villains rushed him.
"Eraserhead, that quirk isn't the sort that's best for fighting large groups at once, but you threw yourself into the fray to take all the attention away from the junior players," the blue-haired villain muttered, "Aw man, you're so cool, you know that? By the way, I'm not the one you should be worrying about. I'm not the final boss."
The pro hero let out a scream of agony as the heavily muscled creature suddenly appeared behind him and punched him into the floor, shattering his yellow goggles as his face hit the floor.
Itachi, even with his Sharingan active, didn't even see when it moved. One moment, it was across the courtyard and the next, it was looming over Aizawa who struggled weakly as the creature grabbed his uninjured arm and bent it backwards at the elbow into a position nobody's arm should end up in, while applying more and more pressure to his other arm with its knee, crushing the bones in his partially disintegrated arm.
He caught a glimpse of movement from the body of water that sat to his right, immediately recognizing the green hair of Izuku and Tsuyu and the purple balls of Minoru.
This wasn't good.
Itachi found himself stuck between the creature which was effectively holding his teacher as a hostage, the blue-haired villain, the other three villains who were eager to kill him and other villains who would've been taken out by Aizawa if not for his current predicament.
'Tch, this situation is tilting heavily towards disastrous.'
There was a rush of something behind him and Itachi leapt to one side, avoiding a stream of green fire sent his way. Chainsaw Arms charged at him and Itachi was forced to leap back and allow him to pulverise the ground where he'd been stood, before cleaving through one of Whip Hands' fleshy whips as she tried to strike him in the face once more.
Suddenly, footsteps were approaching him from behind.
Pivoting on the spot, Itachi turned just in time to catch the wrist of the blue-haired villain before he could press his fingers against the surface of his ballistic vest. And for somebody so skinny, the villain was deceptively strong as Itachi had to strain to keep his hand from moving any further.
"Huh, nice reflexes. Clearly, your reflex stat has been maxed out. I can appreciate that, grinding for XP."
Itachi grunted, glaring down at the villain's hand.
"Hehehe, where are my manners," the blue-haired man tilted his head to one side, "My gamertag is Shigaraki Tomura, and the thing that crushing the life out of your awesome teacher and is going to kill the Symbol of Peace is an artificial human - Nomu."
The elder Yaoyorozu twin jerked back as Tomura suddenly lunged at him, grabbing his face with all five fingers.
Minoru and Izuku let out horrified screams that drew the attention of the other villain towards them.
However, nothing happened and Tomura seemed incredibly confused.
Itachi was equally confused and too stunned to move. He knew he should be breaking himself free as soon as possible, but his brain - after witnessing what happened to Aizawa's arm - seemed to have pre-emptively accepted death.
'Move.'
Tomura twitched and shifted his place, painfully digging his finger into Itachi's face. He'd caught a glimpse of his grimy nails and Itachi wouldn't be surprised if sepsis killed him faster that whatever Tomura's quirk was.
'Move. If you die now, this second chance will've been a waste.'
A sadistic chuckle slipped past Tomura's lips, "Oh man, you really are so cool... Eraserhead."
The Nomu had raised Aizawa's face from the floor, providing him with an opening, despite his fractured skull and the blood pouring down his face into his eyes, to use Erasure to save his student from certain death.
'MOVE.'
The Nomu slammed Aizawa's head into the floor once more.
Itachi batted Tomura's arm aside, eliciting a grunt of annoyance from the villain. Clutching his katana with both hands, he raked the cold steel across Tomura's face, cutting through his right eye and almost bisecting the hand attached to his face as he pulled away and screamed.
A fleshy whip wrapped around his ankle and Itachi grunted as he was tossed over towards Izuku, Tsuyu and Minoru.
He crashed unceremoniously into the water behind them, head-first. Something wrapped itself around his waist - feeling suspiciously like Whip Hands' fleshy whips - and as he was rapidly brought to the surface, Itachi realized that it was Tsuyu's really long tongue and released the death grip he had on it.
"Thank you." Itachi told them.
Izuku looked like he was Plus Ultra with worry, "Yaoyorozu-kun, are you alright?"
Itachi glanced down at the green-haired boy's busted finger, "I will be. You were forced to injure yourself again?"
"I'll explain that later. I can still fight and I've got the use of the rest of my fingers if need be."
Nearby, Tomura was staggering about like a drunkard as he clutched at his face and cried as blood poured from his wound, staining his clothes and the floor below him, "Fuck, fuck, fuck, Father's hand! You asshole, you nearly destroyed Father's hand. H-How could you, T-THIS IS ALL I HAVE LEFT OF HIM!"
Minoru shuddered, "He doesn't sound too happy."
"I don't think anybody would be happy after getting slashed across the face, Mineta-chan." Tsuyu replied, deadpan.
Tomura suddenly appeared before them, the partially severed hand clutched in his left hand as blood streamed down his face, whilst his chapped mouth was twisted into a manic smile, lips stained red, as he reached for Tsuyu who stared at the hand that reached for her face, and Minoru, who was next to her, hadn't even registered the villain's sudden appearance.
"You take away something of mine and I'll take away something of yours."
A/N: And that's Chapter 12 for you guys
