Before I start, someone sent me a message, I won't say who as to protect privacy.
I got a message from them and they said the Team names make no sense in this story so I'll just point out a few things.
TOTM: Totems are like a pillar, as the main team of this story they are being trained to be a pillar to society, like All Might.
SMKE: Almost every member of this team can have some sort of smoke affect with their power, Shouto's mist, Bakugo's explsions, the ground Mina touches with her acid, the smoke floating off Kirishima because of how awesome of a character I think he is.
Disclaimer: The following is a fan fictional work. My Hero Academia and RWBY belongs to their original owners.

Later that night
A young, probably pre-teenage girl was roughly pushed into the wall. Her tiny bear ears were her only indicator of her faunas heritage.
She was surrounded by four men in black suits and shades, each of them had some sort of long red bladed swords on them.
"Give us all your money you filthy faunas." The man who shoved her said with venom in his voice.
This wasn't supposed to happen. She was just supposed to get some groceries for her and her father. She wasn't supposed to mugged by human supremacists.
If just mugged. She had no idea what else these men would do to her.
"Oi," She flinched at the lead man's loud voice. "did I stutter? I said, give us all of your money." He shouted as he took a threatening step closer with his hand on the hilt of his sword.
"Hey!" A voice shouted behind them. They all turned to look at the entrance of the alleyway they were in. Standing there next to groceries she bought was Izuku and Ochako.
"Leave the girl alone." Ochako shouted at them.
The girl couldn't believe her ears. A human was standing up for her. She looked to Izuku and saw his smaller than average wolf ears. What was a human doing with a faunas?
"And who the hell are you supposed to be?" The leader said smugly. "You think your hot stuff because you have a watch dog with you." Izuku and Ochako's jaws visibly tightened.
"He's a wolf actually. And like I said, leave the girl alone." Ochako said.
"Or else what?" The leader responded.
She pointed to the dumpster in the alley. "Or else, I'll have to put each of you in that dumpster in ten seconds."
The men laughed at what they assumed was a girl trying to be brave, but then blanched as they saw Ochako pulled out Broken Moon in it's staff form.
"Crap, she's a huntress." One of the goons said.
"What do we do boss?" Asked the goon closest to the leader.
"What do you think geniuses? Get her." He shouted pulling out his sword. The other three followed suit.
"Deku, leave them to me." Ochako requested her partner.
"I'll be here if you need me." He responded. He didn't want to let her fight alone, but he believed she'd be okay.
The four men charged straight toward her.
She kicked the dumpster in front of her so the first guy would run into it. She then hit him in the back so he would fall in.
The second one took a swing at her, which she blocked. She then hit his ribs with her staff. She looped her staff on one of his legs and flung him into the dumpster.
The third goon attempted an overhead swing. She blocked it, raised his sword above his head, and then kicked in the face. Sending the third one into the trashcan.
The leader attempted a diagonal slash which she ducked under. When he raised his word for an overhead strike, she quickly hit him in the stomach, knocked up his sword, him in the stomach again, and then stabbing her staff into the ground she jumped up and double side kicked him into the dumpster on top of his followers. She then closed the lid on top of them.
The girl looked at Ochako in awe, because true to her word it only took ten seconds.
Ochako having made sure that the crooks weren't going anywhere anytime soon, came over to the girl. "Are you okay?"
Hesitantly the girl nodded. "I am."
"That's good." Izuku said joining behind his partner.
"Why did you save me." The bear faunas asked.
"Because it's the right thing to do." Ochako replied immediately.
"Do you need help getting home?" Izuku asked.
The girl shook her head. "N-No, I live just down the block. I'll be fine." She stood up and they walked down to the end of the alleyway where she had dropped her groceries. She turned and bowed. "Thank you very much for saving me." She then turned and walked away.
"Gran Torino wasn't lying when he said this place had a lot of baddies." Izuku said.
"Yeah, glad we got there in time for that one." Ochako said.
"Same. I'm glad that in a way I'm doing what I've always set out to do." Izuku said with a smile on his face.
"Are you talking about your reason for being a huntsman?" Ochako asked as they walked down the street.
"Yeah, ever since I was really little I've been a fan of All Might. I wanted to be just like him. I want to be someone who when faced with danger smiles and laughs. All Might is the symbol of peace, and I hope to one day be just that, the symbol of peace. When people are in danger I want them to think of me, believing that they are safe. That's why I want to be a huntsman." Izuku said with eyes burning with determination.
Ochako couldn't help but look at her partner in admiration. Never had she heard anyone sound so determined, she truly did believe he would achieve his goal. No one this determined could fail.
"Honestly Deku… that was one of the most amazing things I've ever heard anyone say." Ochako smiled. She giggled when he ducked his head in embarrassment, mumbling that he didn't deserve the praise. "Honestly, after hearing your reasons I feel kind of guilty of my goals." She put a hand on the back of her hand, a nervous smile forming on her face.
"Why do you feel guilty?" Izuku asked.
"Well I want to be here for the money honestly." Ochako said.
"The money?" Izuku was kind of shocked.
"About right." She covered her flaming cheeks with her hands "It's pretty terrible compared to yours I know."
"There is nothing wrong with wanting to provide for yourself." Izuku said trying to cheer her up.
"It's not really for me." Ochako confessed. "I told you my family owns a construction company didn't I? Well, being in a place where no one wants to expand left us pretty much broke. I wanted to be a huntress before I found out about our situation. I told them when I got older and stronger I would help them, but they wanted to me to follow my dreams." She gripped her fists tighter. "It's not as noble as your cause, but it's why I want to be a huntress. So that I can make money and give my parents the life they deserve."
Ochako waited for any sort of negative remark from him, even though she knew he wasn't like that.
"Ochako… you have to be the most selfless person I have ever met." Ochako blinked, she hadn't been expecting this sort of reaction from him.
"W-What do you mean?" She was curious as to why he would say this.
"You said you want to be a here because of the money, but it's because of what you want to do with the money that makes you an even more wonderful person in my eyes."
Ochako averted her eyes. "I still don't know."
Izuku didn't give up. "Think about it. There are plenty of jobs you could make a lot of money in. You could have been a doctor, a lawyer, and who knows how many other things. But out of all of them you chose to be a huntress. You chose to be someone who saves and protects lives. That makes me feel blessed to be your partner."
Ochako's spirit lifted higher than ever before when it came to talking about her problems. Of course he would never think wrong of her, as he truly did believe that she was that selfless and kind. They may have known each other for less than a year, but Ochako could a feel a connection forming between the two, deeper than anything they had with anyone else.
"So, don't feel bad, be prou-" Izuku was interrupted by Ochako suddenly launching herself and she was hugging him.
"Thanks Deku. I really needed to hear that." Ochako said. His chin resting beside her forehead. "You mean a lot to me too."
Both of them blushed deeply as she realized the words that came out of her mouth.
She immediately jumped waving her hands frantically. "Wait... I didn't mean it like that... I meant you being my partner and all and... hm?" She stopped as she realized Izuku hadn't moved at all. When she looked at his face she screamed. "Ah, Deku!?"
His face was scrunched up with a blush dusting his cheeks. I'm important to her?! He screamed in his head. A former loser like me!? How? I am so plain and she is so... so... so... so... so...
Izuku exe has shut down and is now using full power trying to find a word that he feels truly describes how amazing he thinks Ochako is.
Black Mist Bar, somewhere in Vale
The bar was the go to place to sit down and plan out there movements. The place was pretty nice as well. The lighting gave the place a relaxing atmosphere and it was only made better by Kurogiri's bar tending and drink-making skills.
The current occupants of the establishment were Tomura Shigaraki and Roman Torchwick who were sitting at the bar
Tomura sat there staring angrily at a picture of the green haired faunas traitor. He had gotten some of his connections to gather Intel on him.
A medal of honor huntsman for a father? What a joke. No wonder this brat was a huntsman in training, his family was probably force fed with honors and other ideals by the human huntsman that run these kingdoms.
What filth. He thought as he went back to his games.
"I'm going to be heading back to the Mountain Glenn outpost tonight to finish finalize the preparations for the plan. You want to come with me Tomura?" Roman asked his colleague.
"As if. I have things I want and need to get done here in Vale." Tomura said as he played the new Devil May Cry game on a portable console in his hands.
Dark purple smoke appeared out of nowhere when Kurogiri warped back into the room. "Sir I have found him."
Tomura paused his game and turned off the console. "Good. Bring him here."
The misty man visibly winced at that. "Are you sure it is wise to bring him here?"
Tomura nodded. "Just bring him here."
"As you wish." The barkeep said before being shrouded in a purple mist and was gone.
"What was all that about?" The ginger haired man asked.
"I've had Kurogiri looking around Vale to find the Huntsman Killer: Stain." The white haired faunas explained.
That shocked Roman. "Why would you want to know where a lunatic killer is?"
Tomura shrugged. "He kills huntsman, we kill huntsman. He has a large reputation amongst the world. If he joined us then our own reputation would rise."
A few minutes later, a warp gate appeared in front of Tomura while Torchwick stood as far away from it as possible. Out of the black mist emerged a man who could paint a room red with fear. He was an intimidating, muscular man who walked with a distinct hunch. He has black hair and wears it in a messy fashion that would drape over his face if not for his headband and mask. His face is mostly flat because he removed his own nose, and his eyes are blood red. His tongue is unusually long and forked with many small bumps tainting it. He sports a dark combat suit, plated with metal armor across his body to holster his weapons. The torso is sleeveless, and instead wraps his arms in bandages. He also wears long black wristbands and a watch on his left arm. His knees are protected with metal pads and the costume is completed with black, steel boots with spikes coming out the front of them. He dons his signature blood-red scarf and matching headband, as well as the tattered cloth he wears around his face as a mask.
His eyes darted around observing the area in front of him, and as he laid his eyes on Tomura, his hand went towards the signature katana on his back. He spoke gruffly, "You're Tomura Shigaraki?"
"Yes. I'm glad that you accepted the offer to meet me here, Stain." Tomura said as he stood from his seat. "Now then, let's make this quick. You and I are alike. We both want to remove these trash who call themselves the heroes from the face of this world, don't we? Join us, and together we'll crush these huntsman into dust!"
The man immediately scoffed. "You and I? Alike? You work for the white fang and their plagued ideals!" He looked past him and saw Roman. "You work with others who do nothing, but steal like a leech on blood."
"I'd prefer to call myself a crime entrepreneur." Torchwick quipped.
"What's more, you kill for amusement, not for conviction! Weak-willed men like you are what made the selfless calling of a huntsman a career! A popularity contest!" He tongue flickered harshly as he spoke. "You are the reason these fakes are so rampant in society!" Killing intent rolled off of the man in waves as a dark red intimidating aura surrounded him.
The two started a stare off that didn't look like it was ending soon.
"Well, as much as I would like to stay I have work to do." Roman said as he grabbed his hat and cane before turning to Kurogiri. "Hey, mind tossing me a bottle of that pumpkin flavored stuff and send me back to camp before these two try to kill each other."
The mist man simply reached back and grabbed a bottle of Pumpkin Rum and handed it to the bowler hat man and opened another warp gate with his semblance.
"Gentleman." The thief said tipping his hat toward the three before walking through the gate and coming out the other side. He was now in an underground cavern beneath the abandoned colony of Mount Glenn. He looked around to find many White Fang grunts loading supplies onto a train. He was standing in one of the train cars and looked out through the open doors.
Seeing as no one noticed him yet and everyone was working he pulled out his bottle from the bar. After popping the cork he went to take a drink.
"Yo boss! Is that you?" Just as the tip of the bottle was about to reach his lips, he heard a voice call out for him. "Got something you might wanna see!"
"Is it the good something or the bad something, Perry?" Roman said. "Because, let me tell you I have had a day."
"It's some kinda red cloaked little girl?" Perry answered
Roman sighed loudly and replaced the cork in the bottle and putting it back in his coat pocket. He leaned out the cart door to see Ruby being held captive between Perry and another grunt.
"That would be a bad thing." Roman said.
With Tenya and Tsuyu
The two T's of the team were walking together on one of the lesser known streets of this part of Vale. It was filled with alleys and home to very few people. Tenya was in front of the two and leading with his head held high while Tsuyu was right in step beside him. The two of them had already stopped a biker gang from robbing a convenience store and tied them up before the police came and got them. This part of town really was rampant with crime at night.
"Hey Iida?" Tsuyu started.
The leader turned to face his partner. "Yes Asui?"
At that her eye twitched a little. "I keep telling you to call me Tsu. My friends always get to call me Tsu."
"Apologies." He said waving his arm.
She held her finger on her lips in thought. "I was just wondering. Gran Torino told us to think about our reasons for being huntsman. While I have a general idea for yours I don't have a full idea of it really."
Tenya slowed down his stride a little as he brought his hand up to hold his chin in thought. "I would have to repeat what I have said. My family, despite it's large industry, have been huntsman for generations. My brother was the one before me and I honestly believe he was the best." He smiled as he reminisced. "He was strong, in body and in will. He always did what was right and did so as it was his duty and life calling to do for others without asking for anything in return. He is the embodiment of what I want to be."
"Do you think he is honest?" Tsuyu asked.
"Of course I do." He replied.
"Then how can you think about being like him when you lie to your own teammates?" Tsuyu said out of left field.
Tenya stopped completely, his face showed he was aghast at his friends words. "What could you possibly mean by that?"
Tsuyu looked him dead in the eye. "You've been searching for the Huntsman Killer on your own right beneath our noses."
Tenya took a step back in shock that he was caught. "How did-"
"When you thought we were sleeping you pulled out your scroll and searched through police reports on the killer." She explained. "When your power is based around stealth, people have a really hard time noticing your watching them."
Tenya looked down at his feet as Tsuyu kept talking. "Not to mention, the killer has a fondness for places where their aren't many people around." She gestured around where they were. "This seems to match that description to a T."
"Midoriya told you at the very beginning of the year that we would help you, that you wouldn't have to be alone in this, that we're a team. Why didn't you say anything?" Tsuyu said.
"Because all of this has nothing to do with you." The leader snapped. "I know what I am doing is wrong, but that bastard destroyed my brother. So I am going to destroy him."
"We're your team." Tsuyu shouted back. "What's wrong with you is what is wrong with us. We're here to help you whether you like it or not."
"I don't need your help." The blue haired man practically growled. "I don't want it."
Tsuyu looked down, her bangs shadowing her eyes, and her body trembling. "Well I don't want another one of my friends to die." Tsuyu said, suddenly very quiet and somber.
Everything was quiet at those words. No noise but their labored breathing. They were both suddenly glad that there was no one around because it would have been embarrassing.
Tenya momentarily forgot his anger at the sight of Tsuyu's trembling form.
"Asui... I... I didn't..." Tenya reached out a hand.
"Do you want to know why I wanted to be a huntress?" Her voice was different, her sniffles adding a different depth to her slightly nasally voice. "I grew up with my family in Menagerie, a place where faunas go when they've had enough of the world around them. I always wanted to go around the world, and if I could help people while doing it then that would be even better. The idea wasn't very popular where I grew up so I had no friends, even as I got older. But one day I met someone who was just like me." Tsuyu's mind flashed back to the image of a tall snake faunas girl with yellow piercing eyes and crazy red hair. "Her name was Habuko Mongoose. She was loud, rude, and a bit of a stalker, but she was my best friend."
The last name rang a bell with Tenya. "Wasn't that-"
"What I named my outfit. Yeah." She confirmed. "It's what she wore all the time. She was so free spirited, always trying to make me do crazy things I wouldn't do on my own. I always said yes as long as it wouldn't break any rules. The times I said no she went ahead without me." She shook her head. "The last time I said no was the last time I saw her."
"What happened to her?" He said carefully, knowing he was in dangerous territory right now.
Tsuyu took a deep breath full of sniffling. "She went out into the desert to practice against Grimm. They didn't find what was left of her until a month later." She put her hands behind her back and undid her ribbon, letting her long hair loose. She held it up to him. "She gave this to me, and it's the only thing I have to remember her by."
She lifted her head and Tenya could see several tear streaks on her face and new ones kept getting formed by just how much she was crying.
"I'm always known for speaking my mind, so here it is. I don't care about breaking rules anymore, and I don't care how dangerous it is, and I don't care if you want to do this on your own." She said with a voice raw from emotion. "You're my friend and I don't want to lose you."
Tenya could not form any words. He had no idea his partner was carrying all of that within her. How she truly viewed him as a friend. How she truly wanted for him to let her and the others stay by his side and help him. How he couldn't ask for a better partner.
After that he wanted to punch himself for realizing he just made said person cry.
Now that he thought about it, it was a good idea.
Tsuyu jumped in surprise as he watched use his flexibility to power kick himself in the face.
Don't ask how anymore.
Somehow I actually feel bad for the Grimm if this is how it feels, because damn it this hurts. He thought to himself as he flew backward from the force of his kick and landed on the ground.
"Iida! What are you-" She ran up to and reaches down to help him, but he raised his hand in protest while the other one gripped his face.
"My apologies. I had no idea how my actions where affecting my teammate so much." He said as he managed to stand up. "I have neglected the feelings of my comrades. As a leader, that is unacceptable." He looked to Tsuyu. "I plan to atone for that starting now."
"What do you mean?" Tsuyu asked after managing to wipe away all of her tears.
"I have no right to ask you this, but as a friend will you aid me in finding the killer." Tenya said with his hand outstretched. "Tsu."
The frog girl smiled. "Of course I will ribbit." She shook his hand. "But you're going to have to ask Midoriya and Ochako when we see them again. Tenya."
"Of course." He said as he smiled as well.
Speaking of Stain
Tomura hated a lot of things. He hated All Might. He hated huntsman. He hated all Faunas who were huntsman as he saw them as people who betrayed their kind to work with humans. But right now, he really hated the fact that Stain was much faster than him, and he cursed outwardly and internally as the knife sunk was removed from his shoulder and was now pinned to the floor. And now the man was on top of him with barely contained murderous intent.
"You wanted to add me to your numbers? What a joke." Stain said with a second blade pointed at Tomura's throat.
"Oww. That hurts." Tomura managed to get out. Somehow the bastard pushed a blade straight through his aura. How did that work? "Kurogiri, take this guy back will ya."
The mist stood behind the bar, a gash on his upper arm that bled into his shirt. His body was straight and trembling, like someone trying to...
"I can't move my body... It must be his semblance." Kurogiri said, worried of what would happen to his boss.
Stain stood up from where he was and firmly slammed his foot into Tomura's chest, the spiked toes standing threateningly at his throat. Stain saw something on the counter top. He picked it up to see it was the picture of Izuku that Tomura was looking at earlier. "Who is this?"
Tomura was glad to answer that. "A huntsman in training I ran into not too long ago. He is a piece of garbage who brings shame to the name of Faunas, working alongside that trash like All Might."
Stain's eyes narrowed at that. "It is you who brings shame to those who are Faunas. You and the White fang throwing your power idly around on people just trying to live life. You, the White Fang, those who use their power for scum, the fakes who have plagued this society and those who lack the conviction to change it. All of you will be purged." He said as he threw a blade of his at the downed man's face.
Only for it to be caught in Tomura's hand. "You sure like to talk a lot." The knife in between his five fingers cracked. "Conviction?" The blade rusted over. "The closest thing I have to something grand like that would have to be All Might." The rusted blade fell to the ground in a heap of dust. "I refuse to live in a world where trash like that gets worshiped."
He swung his hand at Stain, but the killer jumped back and landed in a ready to receive battle stance with another one of his knives.
"Your knives really hurt. Your lucky I have an aura, because we don't have a healer in this party of ours." The masked wolf faunas said as he feverishly scratched his neck. True to his word, the wound was very slowly being healed by his aura. The light blue color of his aura wavered over his wound.
Stain kept his blade at the reader. "So that is the type of man you are."
"Huh?" Tomura said.
"It seems that our goals differ quite widely. However, we do both agree on one thing... The destruction of our current world." Stain stated.
"Quit messing around. Go home and die. I'm the type of guy you hate the most don't you."
"I was testing your resolve." Stain explained as he sheathed his knife. "People tend to how their true colors when they are on the verge of death. It seems that I was mistaken about you. You do show a resolve, no matter how twisted, to change the world as you see fit. I'll let you live, as I'm curious to see how your bud will blossom and if you have strength to follow through with that resolve. If not I can dispose of you at any time."
Tomura's eyes thinly narrowed at that. "Dispose of me?"
Behind him, Kurogiri fell forward a little before he caught himself. "I can move now?"
"Kurogiri," Tomura said. "I don't want someone as crazy as him on our party."
"Sir, he will be a great asset if he joins us." The mist man turned to Stain. "I take it negotiations were successful?"
"My business is done here. Now take me back to where you found me. I have still have unfinished business to attend to there." The killer said as he licked his forked tongue across his lips.
Kurogiri reluctantly replied to the man's want and opened a gate back to the center of the residential district. Stain walked right through and just like that, the gate was shut and he was gone.
Tomura stood there watching the spot where the man who humiliated him left. His hands were shaking in anger like the rest of him.
"Kurogiri," He started. "Tell Torchwick to move ahead of schedule and start the attack tonight."
Kurogiri saw no reason in that action. "Sir, that wasn't supposed to be for another few days, if we do it now then..."
"And get me in touch with Sensei." Tomura's request left the mist man in shock.
Not as much as the next part though. "It's time to show this kingdom fear, show them chaos, show them the Nomu."
And that's all folks.
Pop quiz: Ochako's fight in the beginning was based on part of another fight from a movie from 2005. If you can guess that movie right I thank you for remembering a good film or just remembering some movie that you thought was crap compared to the first.
