Well, I'm a bit late, but here you all go~

Sorry about that. Please forgive me.

"Does everyone have their costumes?" Hadou asked a they the group of students met up at the gates before leaving the school grounds. The group nodded their heads, and Izuku could feel the tension in everyone as they departed for the Nighteye office. She hadn't slept since they got their message that morning. She felt her muscles tense as she gripped the handle of her own case. They were finally starting the operation that day.

They were going to rescue Eri.

"I'd say maybe we should relax a bit, but..." Izuku looked over at Uraraka as she held onto her own case while they stepped out of the station after the silent hour long train ride. "I think it's impossible at this point, I also can't help but be tense."

"I'm mostly nervous." Kirishima said with a sigh.

"We'll do great today, everyone!" Hadou said excitedly as she skipped in front of the rest while they turned the corner towards the office.

"Those Eight Dickheads are going to fucking jail to rot today." Katsuki said with a tone of finality, and the others all looked at him as he scowled. "Lets end this fucking bullshit."

"Language," Asui said with a kero, and Kirishima let out a small laugh. "Izuchan, you alright?"

"I'm alright," Izuku said as she walked up to the door, and opened it up before looking back at the others. "But Kacchan is right, let's end this today."

"SHE'S IN THEIR HEAD-QUARTERS?!" The group heard Fatgum shout as they entered the meeting room to hear the details of the operation.

"Are you kidding me?! What was the point of that whole investigation then?!" Lock Rock, the hero Izuku had sat next to during her meeting asked with a scowl that rivaled Katsuki's at this moment.

"We were able to obtain some new information," Nighteye said as he adjusted his glasses. "Just the other day, a member of the Eight Precepts ventured to a nearby department store, and purchased a toy intended for little girls." Izuku heard the confusion from the other heroes in the room as the student stood near the back to listen. She looked up towards Nighteye who stood up straight in front of the rest. "He made comments no hobbyist would, so I used my Foresight on him and saw into his future, thus securing the location of Eri inside the hideout."

"That's where you use your premonition?!" Lock Rock asked in disbelief and Izuku frowned a bit as she remembered the fight at the last meeting over Nighteyes quirk. She looked down at her feet, and clenched the handle of her costume case tightly again.

"Either way, it looks like it's crunch time!" Fatgum declared and the students all nodded their heads and gave verbal agreements.

"Let's do this, Midorichan!" Izuku looked up at Mirio as he started pumping his fists into the air in some kind of crazy exercise. She nodded her head to her senpai before the room was dismissed and the students went to go change.

She pulled on her hero costume, zipping the jumpsuit up to her neck, before she pulled on her heavy iron boots, then her long white gloves. Izuku glanced over at the others as she tied her plain black mask on. She saw how tense Asui and Uraraka looked, and remembered that this was essentially their first serious situation. Izuku frowned a bit as she thought back to all the trouble she had gotten into since she'd been at Yuuei as she pulled her mouth guard on around her neck.

"Not exactly a good thing." Izuku said with a sigh to herself. Most people would find experience favorable, but her kind of experience was not to be envied. They left the office as a group, to head to the police station. She could feel the tension had gotten higher among the group of pro heroes mixed in with her classmates and Senpai's while they were handed information on the Eight Precepts as well as a map of the inside of the building while the Police and pro's communicated with each other. Izuku looked over the information she had in her hands, and committed every last bit of it to memory, a bit shocked by some of the quirks she read over.

"The Pro's are being all cool and calm! I guess they're used to it!" Krishima said as he fiddled with his mask a bit. Izuku looked up at the others, seeing the nervousness on her friend's faces as they made sure they were all put together properly. Izuku touched her mouth guard with her fingers a bit nervously herself. This was something entirely new to her too.

"Doing all the detective work and cooperating side by side with the police..." Asui said with a kero. "All of this is stuff we're unfamiliar with..."

"Yeah..." Izuku ran a hand through her bangs and sighed out. "We're not just running off by ourselves this time, there's a solid plan in place."

"Yeah, we're being counted on seriously this time, like the rest." Kirishima said with a nod of his head, and Izuku bit her lip nervously.

"Hey," Izuku looked up at Katsuki as he spoke, and she watched him look at her seriously with those intense ruby eyes. "This weekend, let's go visit our parents."

"Alright...?" Izuku felt even more confused as she watched him run his hand through his spiky blonde hair in frustration.

"To tell them properly... about shit..." He pointed back and forth between the both of them, and Izuku felt her cheeks heat up into a bright red.

"You mean you haven't told your parents?!" Uraraka asked as she looked at Katsuki angrily.

"We've been fucking busy!" Katsuki snapped at the other girl and Izuku smiled a bit. "And but out, this is none of your business!"

"Anything concerning Izuchan is my business!" Uraraka said with a huff as she crossed her arms. "Besides, can you even say you're dating? You've never even taken her out on a proper date!" The group of friends went silent after her statement, and Izuku blinked in confusion. She hadn't thought about it before and she looked up in thought.

"YOU SHUT UP!" Katsuki snapped angrily after a few moments and Uraraka narrowed her eyes at him. "How the fuck are we supposed to do that shit if we have internships and class and training, moron?!"

"Izuchan deserves to be treated like a princess and taken out on lots of dates!" Uraraka said as she pointed a finger at Katsuki accusingly. "Even getting ice cream or shopping is fine!"

"By those standards, she's been on lots of dates with us." Asui said with a kero as she stepped up by Uraraka. "You really haven't been on a date yet?" She looked over at Izuku who was still thinking.

"Well I wouldn't say that," Izuku said as she lowered her gaze to look at her friends, and saw a confused look on Katsuki's face now too. "... I mean... Technically, we've been dating out whole lives then if that's the definition?" She asked curiously, and crossed her arms. She watched the shock on everyone's faces, and smiled nervously. "Besides, Kacchan is right. We're too busy for stuff like going out on dates, I'm more than happy just reading together or doing homework together." She tried to smile brightly for the others who frowned over in Katsuki's direction.

"Dude, take her out on a proper date." Kirishima said with a sigh as he patted his friend's shoulder.

"SHUT. UP." Katsuki snapped angrily, and Izuku let out a sigh, before she looked over at their senpais. Mirio was smiling a little again as he watched the exchange between them all, along with Hadou. She looked over at Amajiki who was watching the group with his own thoughtful expression.

"Looks like everyone's relaxed a bit," He sighed out and Izuku smiled at him a bit as she looked at the others who were still giving Katsuki disappointing looks.

"I think that's why Ochachan said something," Izuku said in a small voice to the gloomy boy. "We were all a little too on edge..." She looked around at all the pro heroes who were still getting ready and looking at the information. She watched the crowd with her eyes, and noticed she didn't see a familiar yellow costume. "Uhm..." she walked away from her friends, and over to Nighteye. "I don't see Gran Torino anywhere, is something wrong?"

"He was unable to make it," Nighteye told her and Izuku frowned a bit at that information. "There is something big moving with the Villain Alliance, and both him and Tsukauchi are handling it."

"They were both down about not being able to make it today," the Police chief said and Izuku looked up at him in confusion. "But we've got a lot of hands on deck already, so there shouldn't be a problem."

"I see..." Izuku looked down at her fist, and brought it up to her mouth in thought. She wondered what was going on, though it's not like they would tell her. She looked back at the others who were all seriously studying their information packets again after being told off by a pro and she smiled a bit.

"Yo," Izuku jumped in surprise and looked over at Aizawa who had spoken to her. She paled a bit, remembering their sensei was helping out with the operation today as well. "I will be moving with the Nighteye group as well, you understand why right?" Izuku looked up at their sensei, and nodded her head. She knew he was concerned, especially since there might be a Villain Alliance association.

"Alright heroes," The crowd went silent as everyone stopped talking to listen to the Chief as he spoke up. "There's no helping it if it gets a little rough out there. If you see even the slightest hint of suspicious behavior or resistance, please deal with it immediately." She looked around at the others as the tensed up again. "Our opponents are Yakuza types who, at the very least, survived long enough to see this day. So I want everyone of you fulfilling your roles to the utmost with out letting your guards down for a single second! Now let's move out!"

"Izuchan!" Izuku looked over at the others as everyone started to move, and she smiled a bit at Uraraka who held up her fist. "Let's do our best out there!"

"Yeah," Izuku held up her own fist, and looked at the rest of her friends and senpais. "We made a promise, right?"

"No more fuck-ups!" Kirishima said proudly as he pumped his fist in the air. Izuku grinned as she raised her fist and bumped it with his. The rest followed suit, their grins turning to serious expressions in the matter of seconds as they all looked at each other.

"Be careful, don't get mixed up in anything too dangerous." Katsuki grumbled out beside her, and Izuku looked up at him. "But knowing you, it's more than likely to happen, no matter what I say."

"Yeah probably," Izuku sighed out and watched his concerned look turn to one of annoyance. "But, I promise to come out of this with out a scratch." She smiled up at Katsuki who grumbled, "You too, alright?"

"Of course, I'm not stupid enough to get hurt." He growled out and Izuku grinned a bit.

"You're right, You have next to no scars from combat," She laughed out and felt his hand on her head.

"Scars are not a good thing, stupid. Do your best not to get anymore!" He told her and she nodded her head. "... Then maybe we can go on a fucking date."

"I don't care about dates," Izuku said with a laugh and felt him push down on her head again. "K-Kacchan, common... It's not a big deal."

"Tch," He pulled his hand off the top of her head, and she looked up at him again. "Just pick a stupid place to go and we'll go anyways."

"Alright," She laughed a bit, and nodded her head. The rest of the walk towards their destination was pretty quiet. When they arrived, they stood outside a large gate that surrounded a traditional Japanese estate. Izuku took a calming breath as she moved to stand with the Nighteye group, and clenched her fists tightly. It was 8:30 in the morning, normally she was leaving for class at this time, but here she stood, ready to jump into battle with the Pro's and the police. She let out the breath she held in, and focused her mind on the objective.

"The moment I'm finished reading the warrant, that's your cue to gallop in, please be quick about it." The Police Chief called out to the group of heroes. Izuku clenched her fists tightly as she took one more calming breath while the man went to ring the doorbell to the estate.

"What do you want?!" Izuku watched the largest mans he'd ever seen in her life punch through the heavy metal gate. She looked up as some police went flying, and she didn't hesitate for a moment as she took off the ground with a bang and reached her arms out to save some of them with Aizawa. She wrapped her arms around two of them, and let out the breath she was holding in as she landed on the ground in a crouch with the police safely in her arms.

"Are you alright?" She asked the men calmly who looked up at her with nervous sweat on their faces.

"We're good, thank you for jumping in right away," One of them smiled at her and she smiled back at them, before she turned her head to look at the commotion that the man from earlier was causing in the crowd of police and heroes. They were yelling about how the Eight Precepts had caught wind of the operation, and she clenched her fists tightly, before her eyes widened in surprise as Ryukyu slid in, and turned into her large dragon form to subdue the man.

"For the time being, we should try not to split our forces." Ryukyu called out as she grabbed the large man's fist. "The Ryukyu group will deal with this one, everyone else continue forwards!" She called out. Izuku looked over at Uraraka and Asui as they rushed in to provide support with Hadou.

"Give it your all!" Izuku called out to her friends as she rushed past them with Aizawa and the rest of the Nighteye group as well as Fatgum's group. They needed to get into the estate quickly and some of the police rushed forwards with them. She caught up easily with the rest of her group, and saw Kirishima and Katsuki rushing in as well while the police read out the warrant as they rushed the compound.

"Make a beeline for the objective!" Fatgum shouted out as they met some more Yakuza in the front garden of the estate. Izuku rushed beside her teacher as they stormed the doors, while Nighteye and Bubble Girl kicked the door in. she saw no resistance inside the entrance as they ran with the other heroes.

"I'm getting a bad feeling about this!" Lock Rock shouted as they ran, "But now there's no turning back!"

"I wonder if they got information leaked to them somehow," Amajiki muttered out as Izuku ran beside him. She frowned as she saw everyone seemed to be thinking the same thing, "It feels like they're more coordinated than they should be."

"If that's the case, they should be trying something a little smarter." The Police chef chimed in, and Izuku watched some minor thugs stop some of the heroes. "They're probably doing as they've always been told."

"By joining the family, you pledge loyalty to those at the top," Aizawa was beside her, and she looked up at him, a bit shocked at how close they were sticking together. "The manner in which they value that solidarity appears to be the same now, as it was long ago. All this fuss, and we've yet to see Chisaki or any of the higher-ups. I'll bet they're hiding underground and preparing to escape."

"The HELL kinda loyalty is that?!" Kirishima shouted out in an anger Izuku had never seen from him before. "Having your followers take responsibility for you while you try and run away, that's not manly at all!"

"It's because they're human garbage," Katsuki growled out in anger, "What else would you expect from a bunch of assholes that would hurt a little girl for some fucking bullets?"

"He has a point," Amajiki said with a thought, and Izuku ground her teeth together in anger as the group slid to a stop near a tapestry.

"Here," Nighteye called out as he moved the pot in front of it, and touched the wood. "Below here there's a mechanism to open up the hidden path." He pressed down on a piece of wood, and the wall opened up. Izuku looked up at the entrance with wide eyes, a bit surprised.

"Like a ninja house," Mirio said as he looked with her, before Bubble Girl and Centipeder were rushed by some men from the opening.

"We'll make sure no one follows us!" Bubble Girl called out as everyone watched her easily subdue one of the thugs. Izuku smiled as she looked at the powerful female sidekick, before the group made their way into the entrance.

"Man, some girls can be so manly." Kirishima said with enthusiasm as they made their way down the dark staircase next. Izuku laughed a bit as he looked at her, "What a cool agency you picked!"

"It's not far now!" Nighteye shouted as the lead the charge. Izuku pushed hard to keep up with her group as they turned a corner. Her eyes widened as she saw a wall that looked like it didn't belong.

"A fucking dead end?!" Katsuki asked in anger. Izuku took a deep breath and made eye contact with him, then Kirishima. "Not fucking today!

"They think this will stop us?!" Kirishima shouted as he hardened his fists and Izuku buzzed with power and energy as she kicked off the ground with the other two.

"We won't let it!" Izuku shouted as they flew towards the wall. "GALE CRUSH!" She shouted out as she swung her right foot out at the wall. She felt the heat from Katsuki's blasts on her right as they crashed through the cement together with Kirishima, and landed on the ground on the other side.

"Damn, not bad..." Lock Rock said with a disbelieving tone behind them as Izuku kicked a heavy rock out of her way with ease to make way for the others.

"Let's keep moving!" Fatgum called out as they all started to move down the opened path in front of them.

"Hold on...!" Some one called out, and Izuku looked back at the heroes as they all move through the opening, before she felt the ground shift under her feet. She looked down as it moved like water, before she turned her head to look down the path they needed to take. Every last inch of concrete was moving around like jello now, and Izuku threw her hand out to steady Kirishima with her hand.

"The path! It's twisting and changing!" Fatgum said with wide eyes and Izuku clenched her fists as she looked around at the nightmare of a scene.

"It's not Chisaki's doing!" The Chief called out as they looked down the hall, "If I had to guess, it's Irinaka! But the scale of this is way too big! The stuff he can enter and control is at most the size of a fridge!"

"But if his quirk has been majorly boosted..." Fatgum said with an air of realization to his voice. "It's not such an impossibility. The quirk that allows him to enter something and control it freely, Mimicry! He's entered into the concrete and turned it into a living path! Eraser, can you stop him?!"

"If I can't see the actual body, then I can't," Aizawa said as he looked up at the ceiling.

"If he's able to alter the path however he wants... then there's no way we can do this..." Amajiki said with a tone of dread, and Izuku looked back at him with wide eyes. She saw the panic and stress on his face, and she bit her lip nervously as he spoke their worst fears. "And in this time, the rest of them can prepare what ever they need to escape... It's too late now... It's too late to rescue the girl, and too late fo Us-"

"AMAJIKI!" Izuku looked back at Mirio as he stood next to his friend. "It won't turn out that way! Don't forget, you are Suneater!" Mirio tossed his helmet off as he pushed to the front. "Also, this is just a small obstacle! No matter how he manipulates the path, I can still get there!"

"S-senpai!" Izuku reached her hand out to Mirio to stop him. "It's too dangerous to go alone!"

"It's too dangerous for Eri to stay here too," She paled a bit as Mirio looked back at her, and grinned. "I'll be okay, this is a battle of speed and I'm the fastest! I'm going ahead!" She watched him run forwards and through a wall. She clenched her fists tightly, before she felt the floor move under them.

"WHOA!" Kirishma called out as the Fatgum and Nighteye group started to fall into the hold that opened up under them. She clenched her fists tightly as she held her focus on One for All, and looked over at Katsuki as he focused his hands downwards. The heroes all landed with a thunk in a room below, and Izuku jerked her head to look up as the hold in the ceiling closed up.

"Looks like they want an all-out fight..." Katsuki growled in anger as he stood up and glared in the direction of a group of men. "Now it's time to fucking show these assholes our true strength!"

"Focus on the objective!" Amajiki called out, and everyone looked at him in shock as he held out a hand to stop the others. "I'll deal with these time eating pawns, the rest of you carry on!"

"What are you saying! Let's work together!" Kirishima called out. Izuku looked at him worriedly, before looking back at Amajiki as he faced the men in the room. She slid her foot back, ready to jump into action as the men started to attack.

"Yeah, you should cooperate," The villain with a sword said as he laughed, "We'll kill the lot of you!"

"That's setsuno!" The chief yelled out and Izuku clenched her fists tightly, "Any guns on him will be useless! We're counting on you heroes!"

"You know my quirk?!" The man with the sword laughed before he started to attack. "Ah whatever, that just means I can let loose!"

"Afraid not! Drop your sword!" Aizawa shouted, and Izuku watched the Villains panic at not being able to use their quirks. She crouched down, ready to attack, but her eyes widened as she saw a man pull out a gun.

"I don't care if it's a sword or a hail of bullets!" Fatgum shouted as he stepped in front of the others, and Izuku felt Katsuki grab her arm and pull her back into safety. "Everything will sink right into my body! It'll be easier on you if you come quietly though!"

"Threats like that will only work on folks who value their own lives!" The villain with the sword shouted as they rushed forwards to attack.

"Senpai!" Kirishima called out as a giant clam suddenly shot out of nowhere, and Izuku watched in amazement as it popped open after crashing through the enemies and tentacles shot out. She looked up at Amajiki as he captured the villains swiftly and easily with his quirk and disarmed them of their weapons before throwing them back out of the way.

"I'll be your opponent!" Amajiki called out to the villains, "I indulged in tons of takoyaki, so my octopus skills are at their best! But seeing as I got shot not far back, I'm more vigilant regarding things like these." he held up the weapons and crushed them with a crab claw. "I'll take these clowns, keeping us all here is what they want."

"But senpai!" Izuku looked over at Kirishima as he shouted at Amajiki. She saw the concern in his eyes, and ground her teeth together.

"This is a race!" Amajiki shouted and everyone went quiet. "There's not a second to waste! You all need to move ahead, you'll need your raw power to break across the warping underground! I can shut these guys down here!"

"Senpai..." Izuku was amazed at his sudden volition, and she bit her lower lip.

"Let's go, there's doors over there!" fatgum shouted as the group rushed to the doors on the other side of the room.

"Everyone!" Izuku looked back as they ran out of the room, and saw the concern on Amajiki's face. "I leave Mirio to you!" She made eye contact with Amajiki, and grit her teeth together as she clenched her fists. "Knowing him, he'll push himself too hard! So please help him!"

"Leave it to us!" Izuku shouted back at Amajiki, before the group of heroes and police left the room in a rush.

"Wait, we shouldn't leave him alone!" Izuku looked over at Kirishima as Fatgum pulled him along in their run.

"Hair for brains is right, this wasn't the best idea!" Katsuki growled out and Izuku looked back at the large pro hero.

"He's the strongest out of any of us," Fatgum said with a serious look on his face. "But his heart was weak. He was crushing himself under the pressure of needing to do everything perfect. He made it to where he is under a lot of stress. If he made the call to do this alone, then I gotta respect his decision."

"I still can't help but worry," Kirishima said with a frown and Izuku clenched her fists tightly.

"The mark of a true man is the ability to completely trust some one whose got your back!" Fatgum shouted and Izuku paled a bit.

"In that case, Amajiki-senpai is definitely okay!" Kirishima said with a wide toothy grin. Izuku looked over at him worriedly before Katsuki slammed a fist on his head.

"You're swayed to easily, moron!" He snapped angrily, but Kirishima held up his sharp grin.

"We may be concerned, but we need to trust him!" Kirishima shouted as he punched the air.

"We can't waste a single second Suneater has bought for us! Let's push forwards!" Fatgum cheered next.

"You guys..." Izuku looked at the both of them with a laugh.

"Let's head back up!" Nighteye called out from the front and Izuku looked forwards to see a set of stairs.

"Uhm..." Izuku looked around at their surroundings, and clenched her fists. She was getting a bad feeling in her stomach, the hallway hadn't moved at all since they left the room from earlier. "Isn't it... A bit weird...? The guy who can manipulate the underground hasn't moved at all in the last few minutes here..."

"We've been running through the labyrinth without encountering a single obstacle... If he wasn't gotten in our way by now, maybe it means that he's not able to manipulate the entire underground." Aizawa said with a nod of his head, and Izuku looked up at their sensei. "The police force is up above... Along with Suneater... It's possible that maybe his attention is focused elsewhere."

"So his range of control is limited." Lock Rock chimed in and Izuku looked forwards at him.

"It's just conjecture, but..." Aizawa sighed out. "Let's say that by entering into the underground and controlling it, instead of assimilating into the underground he's moving about the surface of it's walls, looking and listening. He most likely wants to influence area's his body is near, and act as eyes and ears."

"Makes sense," Izuku said as she looked around at the walls for a give away. She pushed to run faster with Kirishima and Katsuki beside her. She kept her eyes on the walls, trying to catch sight of any abnormality. "Ah.." She jerked her head to see some concrete swirling, "LOOK OUT!" She shouted, but was too late. The concrete shot out like a tunnel, and she looked back at their sensei who was just behind them. "ERASER!" She cried out as she turned to help, but Kirishima pushed her back away from the moving concrete, and launched forwards with Fatgum.

"HEY! SHIT HAIR! FAT GUM!" Katsuki shouted out, but the two of them managed to push Aizawa out of the way, before they got slammed into the adjacent wall.

"EIJICHAN! FATGUM!" Izuku cried out as she ran towards the pillar and the wall, after it stopped moving. She clenched her fists tightly, and wound her right fist back, ready to punch a whole through the building.

"Don't!" Katsuki grabbed her by the arm, and she looked back at him with wide eyes. "They'll be okay! Besides, you'll destroy your right arm!" They looked looked at her arms that was crackling with power, and she ground her teeth together. She had almost been stupid enough to obliterate her bones again just to run after the others who were more than capable of defending themselves. She lowered her fist, and looked up at the others, before the hall they were in started shifting again like jello.

"Shit, he's at it again!" Lock Rock shouted in anger as they were tossed around in the hallway by the warping concrete all around them.

"The walls are closing in!" Izuku cried out as the group that was left stumbled around to keep their footing. Aizawa came up behind her and Katsuki as they tried to move forwards. "We're going to be crushed to death...!" She looked up at the moving concrete, and ground her teeth together again as she charged One for All into full cowl again.

"Lock rock!" Nighteye shouted, "Use your quirk!" He pointed at the wall as everyone grouped together.

"Don't act like you're the leader!" Lock Rock shouted as he planted his hand on the wall. "This whole debacle is because of your mismanagement!" he twisted his palm on the moving wall, and the area around the small group stopped moving. Izuku let out a sigh as she steadied herself and looked over at Katsuki and Aizawa worriedly. "There, this side won't shift anymore, but no complaining on how cramped it is! This is all I can manage, look!" He pointed his free hand in front, and Izuku's eyes widened as she saw concrete shooting towards them. "He's attacking! Watch out!"

"GALE CRAAASH!" Izuku shot forwards in front of the others, winding her leg back, before she smashed apart the oncoming attack. The rubble crumbled in front of her as she landed on the ground, and looked up with a huff to catch her breath.

"Fucking kids these days..." Lock Rock commented as she kept her eyes forward to look out for any more attacks.

"Idiot, you could've gotten killed!" Katsuki shouted, and she glanced back at him, seeing his hands crackle as he got ready to attack.

"We gotta keep pushing ahead. These two are our way through." Nighteye pointed at both her and Katsuki, and she clenched her fists tightly.

"At this rate it'll only get worse," Aizawa commented, "We're going to get cornered eventually, we can't rely just on their power and brute force." he pointed to Katsuki and Izuku, "Mimicry didn't put this plan into effect earlier because it must be causing him a lot of strain to manipulate this much. He's cornered in his own way, and we need to take him out."

"Incoming!" Izuku shouted as she ran forwards into the moving hall with Katsuki as more concrete shot their way. They both attacked with their combined power, and obliterated the concrete once again, but another attack launched immediately. "Kacchan!"

"Got it!" He moved forwards and held up one of his hands, and blasted the stone apart. The others started to move behind them as they made their way forward, and Izuku rushed past Katsuki, and wound her left fist back as she focused ahead of them.

"Hurricane smash!" she shouted as she focused on holding her power level, and punched the stone apart as it approached. She huffed out as she saw the opening she made, "These guys..." she glared at the hallway around her, thinking back to Amajiki and Mirio who were alone, Kirishima who was missing with Fatgum, and the others up above dealing with the thugs. She glared in front of her as she spun on her foot and smashed apart another incoming pillar of concrete, while Katsuki blasted the walls back with his hands. "LIKE WE'D LET YOU STOP US HERE!" She shouted out as she ran forwards towards a wall they were fast approaching. She glared at it with her glowing green eyes, and wound her fist back, ready to smash apart the stone, but it opened up. "It... opened...?!" She slid to a stop on the stone as the group entered a large misshapen room.

"The fuck do these guys think they're playing at?!" Katsuki asked as he came to a stop next to Lock Rock. Izuku looked around at the strange smoothness of the walls, before they started moving again.

"DEKU!" Izuku heard their sensei call her hero name, before he pulled her out of the way as the room shifted and attacked them. She looked back over her shoulder as the room separated them from the others.

"Kacchan...?!" She turned around to look at the wall that was between her and the others now. "They... Split us up.." she glared around at the walls. "What now, Eraser...?" She looked to her sensei who was also looking around.

"Mimicry is going to make his next move... we can't guarantee that the others are still in a group either..." Izuku felt a nervous sweat drip down her cheek as she looked at the walls, before she heard explosions on the other side.

"YOU!" Katsuki shouted as he brought his hand back to wind up for his attack. He glared at the golden eyes that looked at him. "YOU'RE THAT FUCKER FROM THE VILLAIN ALIANCE!"

"Ah, my name is Toga, you know!" The boy laughed as he attacked. Katsuki brought his hands together to attack with a blast. Lock Rock was on the ground, bleeding from a couple of knife wounds. Katsuki slammed his hands towards the boy, and explosions threatened to pop his eardrums as he attacked full force.

"I'm going to end your life!" Katsuki shouted in anger as the smoke kicked up around them. He looked around, glaring in each direction, before he felt a hand on his back, and something sink into his right shoulder painfully.

"Now now, that's not very heroic of you," The boy laughed as Katsuki reached behind him and grabbed the arm holding the knife that was in his shoulder. "Besides, today I'm just a yakuza gangster!" Katsuki jerked the arm over his shoulder and slammed the boy on the ground, letting explosions out from his hands as he went. He glared darkly at the boy, before he started to turn into goop. "You know... I'm jealous of you..." Katsuki's eyes widened as he heard the voice again, and another knife cut his side. He whipped around with an explosive hand, and aimed it at the boys face. "Oooh, what a look!" Toga grinned at him madly, before licking the knife in his hand.

"You fucking... bastard..." Katsuki put his hand on his injured side and glared at Toga with murder in his eyes as the boy changed into him. "I'LL KILL YOU!" He slammed his hand on the ground at the boys feet, and let off a powerful explosion, destroying the ground and sending Toga falling back in the cloud of dust and smoke.

"KACCHAN!" Izuku cried out as she heard the many explosions on the other side of the wall. She crouched down, and felt her muscles burn hot with One for All, "I'm breaking through, Eraser!" She glanced at her sensei who nodded his head. She spun around and slammed her heel onto the stone wall in front of them. Smoke clouded the room with the dust, and she looked around wildly for Katsuki, before she saw Lock Rock on the ground and Katsuki over top of him.

"An imposter appeared out of no where!" Katsuki shouted, and Izuku looked at him with wide eyes as she saw Lock Rock bleeding on the ground, but Katsuki looked fine. "There are enemies everywhere!"

"Lock rock...!" Aizawa rushed forwards to help the downed hero.

"DEKU, DON'T LISTEN TO HIM!" Izuku looked to the smoke as she heard Katsuki's voice, before she whipped her head around to look at the Katsuki who was hurrying over to her.

"Don't listen to him, Izu! Are you alright?!" She looked up at the Katsuki in front of her, and clenched her fists tightly as she looked into his eyes. The one in the smoke called her Deku...

"TOGA!" She shouted as she wound her crackling fist back. There was no way that Katsuki would rush to her if enemies were present, they both knew the other could handle themselves here. Lock Rock even had knife wounds... She could see the insane happy look in this Katsuki's eyes as he brought a knife up in his hand to stab her, before the image of Katsuki exploded in a goopy mess to reveal Toga's true form.

"You remembered me! I'm so happy we could meet again, Izuku baby!" She glared at him as her fists crackled with power. "Let me give you a big kiss!"

"AS IF!" Izuku shouted as she cracked him across the face with her crackling fist. She watched Aizawa use his bandages to capture Toga around his middle and yank him back.

"This is the end for you, Toga!" Aizaw shouted as he pulled the villain away from Izuku.

"Tch, don't get in my way." Toga whipped his head around to glare at Aizawa, before he grabbed the bandage with his hand and yanked on it, before he flipped over her sensei and stabbed him in the shoulder with the knife he still held onto. Izuku glared after him as he fell back onto the ground and landed in a crouch.

"SENSEI!" Izuku cried out as she saw the blood and went to help him.

"Don't come any closer, I'm alright!" Aizawa shouted, and Izuku looked from him, and over at Toga who was grinning in her direction.

"Come here, Izu, baby!" He stood up and held out his hand to her while he twirled the knife in his hands. "I wanna take you on a date, let's go to a nice horror movie, okay?" He laughed. Izuku clenched her fists tightly as she glared at him. All her fear and insecurities burned inside of her as she looked at the boy who subdued her with blows to her head... Well she wasn't pinned down now, and she wasn't going to let him walk all over her again.

"How about a trip to jail?!" She shouted at him as she wound her left fist back, charging up her power, before she heard an explosion from the smoke. Her eyes widened as she saw Katsuki launch out of the smoke right in front of Toga, and he brought his hand up, glaring murderously at the boy.

"HOW ABOUT A TRIP TO HELL?!" Katsuki shouted at Toga, before he let off a powerful blast from his hand in the boys face, knocking him back onto the ground. Izuku watched Katsuki land on his feet with a grunt, before he dropped to one knee. She glared over in Toga's direction, but a wall slammed down and took him out of their sight. "Fuck! I'M GUNNA KILL HIM!"

"Kacchan...?!" Izuku rushed forwards towards Katsuki as he gripped his side with one hand. Aizawa hurried over to Lock Rock and she dropped to her knees in front of her boyfriend. Her eyes widened as she saw the knife lodged into his shoulder, and blood staining his gloves as he held his wound. "Oh... Oh my god..." She clapped her hands over her mouth and looked up into Katsuki's eyes.

"I'm fine, are you alright?" Katsuki asked her and she nodded her head as she reached into her utility belt quickly and pulled out some cloth bandages. "That fucker used some clones and surprise attacks on us..." Katsuki grunted out and Izuku stilled her nerves as she moved his hand from his side and pressed the cloth to it for him. "The fuck is the Villain Alliance doing here, I thought they weren't supposed to be here!" he shouted over at their sensei.

"We knew there was a small possibility, at least it was just Toga and not Shigaraki or anyone else." Aizawa called out as he stopped Lock Rock's bleeding.

"K-Kacchan your shoulder..." She looked at his right shoulder, and then to his eyes as he too looked at the knife in his flesh.

"I can still move it... It's not that deep." He grunted, and Izuku carefully pulled the blade out and pressed bandages to it immediately. She put as much pressure as she could with out hurting him. "At least he didn't fucking hurt you, that's all I give a shit about... Sorry I let him get away." He glared over at the wall that Toga disappeared behind.

"You did better than I thought you would," Aizawa called out as Izuku tied some bandages round Katsuki's shoulder to keep the cloth in place. "But your part in this is over now, Explosion King, you're to stand down with those injuries."

"The fuck I will!" Katsuki snapped in anger, and Izuku frowned up at him.

"Kacchan you'll bleed out, you have to stop. You said you wouldn't get hurt," Izuku looked up at him as he glared back at her. "I want to go on a date with you... So please listen to Sensei..." She frowned up at him and he growled in anger.

"FUCK." He slammed his hand onto the ground, and it rumbled.

"What did you do?" Aizawa asked with a raised eyebrow at him.

"I didn't do shit!" Katsuki shouted, but the room suddenly lurched around them, and Izuku grabbed Katsuki by his good shoulder as the concrete swirled like water and moved, opening up into a large mess of rubble and stone. She could see the others from the group as they were tossed about.

"I WILL CRUSH YOU ALL TO DEATH!" They heard a voice from above, and Izuku jerked her head to look up as she heard the voice, before rubble and stone came crashing towards them.

"Sensei!" Izuku called out as she steadied Katsuki with her hands and looked around as she listened to the voice laugh around them. She couldn't hear very well over the echoes in the cavern Mimicry was creating around them. This guy was watching them for sure, he had to be in this room somewhere... She looked around wildly, and her eyes finally looked up. She saw a hole in the ceiling and her eyes widened as she heard a screeching sound come from it.

"Deku, go!" She glanced at Katsuki for a brief second as he steadied himself, and she ground her teeth together, before she nodded her head and took off he stone with a bang. She bounced off the walls and pillars to climb higher up to the hold high above them.

"TORNADO CRASH!" She shouted as she spun in the air, before she slammed her iron soled feet into the stone above her, smashing apart the concrete and stone. "ERASER!"

"GOT HIM!"Aizawa shouted as Izuku looked down as a man fell out of the stone and towards the ground. She felt gravity pull at her body too as she fell downwards after him, and she turned in the air, before kicking off the stone around them.

"Sorry Mr Yakuza, But we do as we please!" Izuku looked over to see the villain Twice and Toga walking on pillars of stone going up. Her eyes widened as they waved at Mimicry while he fell. "Bye now!" the villains called out and she felt her blood chill as he was hit in the face with something, before she dove after the man who was falling. She caught him out of the air, and hopped from stone to stone before setting his limp body on the ground.

"It seems, we've been used." Nighteye said as he caught the stamp he threw, and Izuku looked up at him, before she looked over at Katsuki and Aizawa who were helping Lock Rock. "But thanks to them, we're free from this labyrinth."

"... Mirio-senpai.." Izuku looked over at the walls around them, and ground her teeth together. They had wasted so much time in the moving hallways... She looked back at Katsuki who was still bleeding and injured pretty heavily.

She had a bad feeling about all this...
