Chapter 9
Villains.
Something a freshman is supposed to know by the age they entered school, at the same, something that they shouldn't have faced yet. Not so soon.
Shouta's keen sense of danger immediately feels the waft of malice coming from a concrete direction.
His eye watches as a hoard of villains marched in. He knew by then that their systems were down, the sirens didn't announce their trespassers after all. He could feel one of his students getting closer to the stairs, and in that instant, his consciousness crashes back to reality.
"Don't move." He orders them, Midoriya stops in his spot.
He wore his goggles. "Those are villains."
He could feel the panic rising in his students, and readies himself for a fight. That's when he hears the leader's voice.
"Eraserhead and Number 13, huh? The schedule we stole said that All Might would be here."
Clarity fills him, as missing pieces starts to pile up and rearrange itself in his head.
The trespassers from that day was no coincidence, just as the principle predicted.
"The symbol of peace isn't here …" The villain starts speaking, his voice was eerie, something he was used to by now, but his students certainly were not. "I wonder if he'll come if we …" Shouta could have sworn that the villain looked him in the eyes as he said his next words.
"Kill some children."
"Number 13, protect the kids." He orders. His colleague doesn't fight villains, he's a rescue based hero. At the same time, he himself only took stealth missions.
But no one, and he means no one, messes with his kids.
He jumps into the fray.

"This sort of attack must have been done with a goal in mind." Todoroki says, the whole class looks at the bi-coloured haired student. While Izuku watches every villain gravely, Katsuki had to hold onto his hands so that he wouldn't be flying to attack and join their teacher.
"I can attack them, immobilize them until the teachers come back." Izuku hisses, but Katsuki punches his arm in retaliation.
"You idiot! What did detective Naomasa say? What about your mom and dad?!"
"But Aizawa-sensei-"
"Can handle himself, he's a pro hero." He told his friend. Ever since their first day in class and Izuchan has been looking up to their sensei. Izuchan did tell him the reason, and he knew that his friend will forever be grateful to the man.
"He can't fight all of them! He can only erase quirks and fight like a normal person."
"While it is very admirable that you worry for your teacher, Midoiya-kun, you heard him. He wants you safe, and not to be put into any danger. Now please follow me so we can do as he wishes." 13 told him. Listening to their teacher, everyone starts to run to the doors.
Katsuki had to drag the floating teen, knowing that Izuku was still watching their Aizawa-sensei.
"He can actually fight well with so many people against him." Izuku finally admits and then refocuses his sight back to him. He puffs his chest and then hooks his hands under his arms, carrying him over so they could reach the others.
"Put me down, Deku!"
"Do you really want me to drop you, Kacchan?"
Izuku does land him, but only because of a dark hole emerging in front of the gates. He hears Izuku gasp loudly. When he turns, he saw his friend frozen in shock. Katsuki knew in that instant that whatever is in that hole, it's stressing his friend.

Izuku might not have had a clear memory, but he does remember this man.
He remembers him with someone else, only that memory was also not clear either.
"We have invited ourselves to the home of the heroes, UA High School, in order to have the symbol of peace All Might, take his last breath."
K-Kill All Might?
Kill Yagi Toshinori.
…
Kill … dad? …
"There must have been some change, if he isn't here, then I should-"
He stops when two figures jump at him. A red head and an ash blonde, attacking at the same aiming at his head, resulting into smoke that covering his field of vision. Izuku snaps his eyes to his left, and realizes that Kacchan has promptly jumped to attack instead of waiting by his side and to let 13 handle the situation.
When the smoke dissipated, they all realize that the attack was unsuccessful.
"My, that was quite dangerous and close. But of course, how could I forget. Even if you were students, you are all … excellent golden eggs."
"You two, get out of the way!" 13 yells, Kirishima and Kacchan didn't react fast enough, as dark mist starts to surround everyone.
"My main job here is to scatter you, and torture you to death." Izuku was knocked out of his place, the mist completely obstructing his view.
And not a second later, instead of falling on the floor, he finds himself falling onto water. The complete change of scenario stills him for a moment. Hitting the water however, wakes him up. He had a second where he didn't know what to do, and so tries to swim up by his hands, a difficult feat without the use of his lower body. He stops however and forms a shield around himself to separate the water from his body and to move upwards using his quirk.
Only after forming the telekinetic shield did he notice Kacchan's scarf floating away, he was about to break the dome to grab it but stops.
That's when he sees a speeding object coming towards him, and he stops moving, surprised to find a villain underwater. He didn't do anything, knowing that his sphere is strong enough to take any hit. He did however, make a noise of excitement when he sees Asui hitting the villain in the head and calling out for him.
Surprise fills him when he finds a tongue wrapped around his dome, pulling him up and out of the water, all the work of the frog like girl.
She lands him softly on the boat, he then uses his quirk to pull both her and whoever she was holding onto on board.
"Thank you Midoriya."
"I'm supposed to thank you, you saved from that villain Asui-san."
"I told you to call me Tsu." She told him, Izuku blinks and face palms, forgetting that completely. "This has turned into a bad situation." Asui continues as she pushes Mineta off of him, Izuku might have imagined it, but he thought that the purpled haired student tried to touch her inappropriately.
"Yeah. What the villain said earlier …" Mineta says causing Izuku to still, remembering exactly what the villain said. Clenching his hands, he couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.
They think that they can … just barge in … interrupt his class … and try to kill his dad?
A very ugly feeling starts to reel inside him, and he needed to take some exercising breaths. He couldn't lose his cool, mom doesn't like it when he does, she gets scared sometimes and he doesn't want her to be scared, ever.
But they knew their schedule.
They must have been the ones to break into school. It was the same man he has met a long time ago, with a weird quirk that made things crumble, and his big and menacing bodyguard. The mist guy doesn't look as scary as he remembers him, back then he was so much taller than himself, and he was a child at that time. Still, to think that they were villains, and ones' bold enough to use the media into their advantage. They were waiting to pounce on All Might, just like Todoroki said, and he- couldn't- breath-
"Midoriya-kun?" Mineta says worriedly, rubbing his head trying to relieve the pain. Izuku snaps out of his breathing and calms down as he looks at his fellow student.
"S-Sorry, I was thinking."
"Err … you were doing that thing." The shorter boy said, looking very nervous as he turned to look at Asui. He didn't understand what Mineta meant, and it seems that it was obvious too since Asui explains.
"He meant when you start mumbling in a low but fast voice that you start scaring everyone, everyone thinks you're chanting a curse by the way."
"S-Sorry. It's a habit." He admits, rubbing his arms. He always did it, ever since he remembers, and it didn't bother Kacchan, so he never really tried to fix it.
"It's all right, and it looks like we're out of danger too. We can just wait for All Might," Here Mineta punches the air, probably imagining the villains from his mind to be defeated by his fist. "And he'll pound all the villains!"
Mineta honestly sounded childish, but he liked that he has an unwavering trust in his father figure.
"But don't you think that they're trying hard in attacking because they do have a way to kill him, Mineta-kun?" Asui questions, tilting her head. Mineta falters in his excitement. "A strong person just told us that they'll torture us to death, you know. I wonder if we'll hold out until All Might arrives, and if he does arrive, will we all be out of here in one piece?"
The more Asui talks, the more Mineta wavers in his convection of survival. At the end he cracks and holds onto his pants as he cries and points at Asui.
"M-M-Midoriya, what the heck is that?" Izuku knows that Mineta meant the dark gloomy aura that suddenly appeared around the girl and not Asui herself, though Izuku could not answer him, not sure what he is seeing himself.
Asui makes a frog sound as she looks at the sea, her eyes seeming to be in alert. Izuku followed her eyes and gapes, for all around them, villains have surrounded their boat.
"There's a ton of them!" Mineta screams, only realizing it now. Yet, Izuku couldn't focus well on his own surroundings as both of his fellow students contemplate their area. Izuku's mind kept wandering back to the villain's plans.
"If those guys have a way to defeat All Might …" Asui and Mineta turn to look at him. He lifts his head up to look at them straight in the eyes. "Then we have to do our best to stop them."
None of them could utter a word, only watching a sort of fire burn behind Izuku's eyes, making it shine a bright emerald green.

Toshinori looks down on his phone ominously. He was currently sitting down in the teachers' kitchen trying to relax for a moment. But he couldn't help but have a stirring feeling of doom start up in the pit of his stomach.
Trying to contact Aizawa or 13 didn't work. He still felt guilty for leaving the two with a class filled with teenagers in their first USJ lesson.
Still … something is happening, and he couldn't relax.
He even tried to talk to Izuku, but knew it was a lost cause since the green haired boy is a very serious and studious child. Of course he would keep his phone either silent or shut off during lessons.
He didn't dare call young Bakugou. He still fears the family. All of them were detrimental to his health, safety and sanity. Shaking in dread at the memory, he pushes it all away from his mind and stood up, forcing his All Might persona to come out.
Only ten minutes, but enough for an appearance.
Unfortunately, blood gushes out of his mouth, and he drops on the couch in disappointment. He couldn't do it.
Not a second later, and the principle comes in, he knew by then that after a greeting, a lecture would be said. Toshinori sighs and lets it slide, still not settled with gloomy feeling in his stomach.
When the principle sits on the couch, he pours tea for the both of them and drinks it slowly, making him sweat.
"Now, let us talk about your choices of successors, since your son will only inherit the symbol and not your quirk." That snaps Toshinori into attention. "It's as I have thought, is it not? One for All would not be kind to Izuku-kun's body. So, I am sure that while he will try his best to be the next symbol of peace, as he is your son after all, he still won't inherit your quirk."
Toshinori nods.
"Have you thought about the other candidates?"

"But the best plan is to just wait here for All Might!" Mineta yells. He and Asui ignore him.
"But it's strange," He comments.
"Are you ignoring me?!" Mineta interrupts.
"They sent you Asui- err- T-Tsu-chan-" He couldn't say it without his face flushing red in embarrassment. Asui tilts her head.
"At your pace Izuku-kun." That relieved him.
"Well! What's strange?" Mineta pulls them back into the conversation.
"They sent Asui-chan into the shipwreck zone, it's as if they know nothing about our quirks and only knew of the area." Asui's blinked, starting to agree as the truth starts to take a hold in her. "They must have separated us because they didn't know our quirks, so they plan to overpower us with their numbers. We have less experience as well, our only hope is to put all our stock on the fact that they don't know what we can do."
Mineta was still shaking, switching between looking at him and then looking at the villains. Asui looks thoughtful.
"I'll tell you about my quirks then." She says, sitting to hide herself from the enemy's view. Mineta didn't need to move but he had to lean on the wall to support himself. "I can jump really high, stick onto walls, and my tongue can stick up to 20 meters. I can also spit out my stomach and wash it, and secrete toxic mucus that stings a little."
The last part was said in such a blunt fashion, that Izuku didn't know how to react. She really did have a frog quirk.
"You're really strong Asui-chan. I on the other hand," He looks into his gloved hands, grimacing. "I have telekinesis, unlike what everyone keeps thinking. I got it from my mother. My pulling motion is stronger than my blasting one, probably influenced by my mom's quirk as well, which is why I always do the punching thing to help direct the energy into one direction, unlike when I pull things. I can also fly and make barriers. The last one isn't very stable."
"That's incredible, being able to do all that. Usually, a person can only do one aspect of a quirk branch." Asui praises. Izuku freezes not knowing how to reply. He turns swiftly to look at Mineta.
The shorter boy demonstrates his quirk by plucking out a ball from his hair out.
"My hair can stick onto any surface, and depending on my mood, I can keep them up for a whole day. And If I pull too many, they start to bleed and only bounce off." He says, neither he nor Asui had a thing to reply to this. A minute of silence passed, causing Mineta to cry out.
"I told you we should wait! How can we fight them with our quirk anyways!"
"N-No, I think your quirk is great, we should think of a way to use it-" He doesn't continue talking as he felt a tongue wrap around him, being pulled to the side as a hand made out of water swoops down to where he just a few moments ago. Mineta was crying even harder than before and he forms a barrier around them.
"They're getting impatient." Asui comments once they were on safer grounds. Mineta still cries out as he pulls his hair out and threw them. Izuku had to pull him with his quirk.
"Mineta, did you really join Yueei to be a hero?" Asui questions his actions, and her condescending tone seems to be affective as the shorter boy starts to crack.
"What's with that response! Not a few weeks ago and we were normal junior high students, now all of sudden we find villains that are about to kill us, it's normal to react as I should instead of being cool and collected like you two are! I just wanted to touch Yaoyorozo boobs, is that too much to ask?!" Mineta continuously screams, Izuku had to cover his ears from how loud it is.
"That's really disgusting of you Mineta." Asui told him without batting an eye, Izuku silently agrees.
Floating up to look at the villains, his mind already settled on a plan.
"Mineta, Asui, I'll jump and attack, and when I call you … Asui, jump as hard as you can and get away from this arena, hold onto Mineta and I'll follow." He told her, Mineta seemed shocked by what he heard.
"Are you crazy! What did I just say! We're kids, we can't just fight them like-" He never finished his sentence, as he took this moment to propel himself off the boat to fly above the villains. He raised his fist, and concentrated as hard as he could on his attack.
"Blast!" He yells out, a large force moves in the same direction of his fist leading the air to slam itself onto the water, causing a large wave to emit. The result was the villains being pulled in the newly created whirlpool.
"Mineta! Asui! Now!" He yells, and only starts to fly once he sees them in midair and follows them. When he did reach them, he saw a look of fear and determination mixed up in Mineta's face as the boy starts throwing his balls at the water.
"Mineta!"
"I-I can show you guys! I can be as cool as you two!" He yells still throwing the balls. It wasn't what Izuku was worried about but the fact that truly, as the boy said before, he does start bleeding when he throws too much of his hair. Yet his actions were to a satisfying result for the balls were getting sucked into the whirlpool as well and acted as an adhesive like chain, trapping all the villains at once.
"Wait, wha- go Mineta!" Izuku cheers once they reached at the edge of the shipwreck zone, and raised his hands to give him a high five. Mineta shakily gives one back, wiping the blood that pooled under his eyes with the other one.
"T-That was s-scary." He complains, but Asui puts him down and nods. "But you were still cool Mineta, doesn't that pain you?"
She pointed out the blood. Mineta shakes his head.
"Thank god, we should start moving then and get to safety, or at least find the others." She told the two and starts moving to the land, ignoring all the caught villains behind. Izuku looks back and glares at them before following her.
"I think it would be best to follow the shore, that way, we can reach the gate without going through the plaza." He starts talking, pointing at said gates. Both his companions follow his sight and nod in agreement.
"That's true, Aizawa-sensei did pull all the villains there, so it should be safer to stay out of their way."
Izuku still doesn't want to leave their teacher in that fight. He knew for a fact that the man can handle himself, he's a pro, and one who doesn't give up easily no matter the hurdle. Yet there were too many villains in sight, and he felt like retching just imagining all of them attacking him.
"He's overexerting himself to protect us …" He says slowly, both his companions snap their attention to him.
"Midoriya?" Mineta asks.
"I'm going to help him." He announces, and at that moment, both Asui and Mineta expressed their displeasure of his idea, and how idiotic he's being.
"Didn't you just say we should stay out of their way." Mineta exclaims, he winces.
"I'm not going to get in his way, but if there's anything, anything I can do to lighten his load …"
"Do you usually do this for your students?" He remembers asking not long ago.
"I do if they showed promise, and determination." Aizawa sensei replies.
He was not giving up on his sensei.
He moves slowly to the shoreline, the other two following behind. Asui mentioned how they will only stay to see if Aizawa sensei needs help. When they did reach shore, they sigh in relief as they watched their sensei still fighting and winning.
That's when a pale blue haired man comes running at their sensei, his hand outstretched, Izuku's insides freezes. A simple memory pops up in his mind but he squashes it away, knowing that now was not the time.
He was about to yell out a warning, but their sensei threw out his scarf, evading the attack and swipes his elbow at his blue haired man's stomach.
The three of them cheered, but stopped abruptly when they saw the villain holding onto Aizawa-sensei's elbow.
0o0o0
It starts to crumble. Pain erupts in his elbow, and he could see the muscle starts to show, his blood not even seeping out, as if they were disintegrating along with his skin.
"W-What?" He hears a shocked voice, and turns around to see the speaker, Mineta. Asui doesn't say anything, probably too horrified by the muscles now showing on his arms arms. Midoriya was also there, his hands covering his mouth.
"Don't push yourself, Eraserhead." The man said eerily, but he doesn't heed him and he starts kicking him with his leg, jumping away. He continues to avoid every attack that was sent his way, his arm incapable of moving.
His nerve system must have been affected as well as well. He thought gravely.
"You're not used to this." The pale blue haired boy says, starting to get off the ground. "You're used to having short fights after a surprise attack."
Shut up.
"Yet you still jump into the fray and attack us, what for? To ease your students?"
He growls and starts attacking using his scarf, disposing of his two attackers before looking straight at the blue haired man. His own hair starts to levitate, already giving away the fact that he was using his quirk.
"You're so cool, Eraserhead! So cool … it's just …" He said, raising his arms, and couldn't help but stare at the multiple severed hands attached to his limbs.
He wants to puke at the sight.
He has seen many villains in his life, most of them twisted and bizarre in their own way, but never has he seen one so readily to attach himself to a multitude of severed body parts.
How many did he kill to get those hands?
"… I'm not the last boss." The maniac finally says.
In that moment, he felt something moving behind him. Surprise and shock took over him as he turns, and finds an abnormal creature behind him, skin a dark undiscerned colour, mutilated facial structure with the eyes digging itself in its protruding brains, its teeth were ever sharp.
It was too fast.
He didn't even half a split second before the arms raised. He didn't have a moment to step back, as it hits him in the head. He just watched in stark horror, as he realizes that this thing, is actually a multiple number of people attached together.
His quirk could not stop all, or any of them, at once.

Ochaka kneels next to number thirteen. Her hands shaking trying to keep him awake. She could see his body, and it wasn't a pretty site. In reality, she would have puked by then if she wasn't so shell shocked trying to help her idol.
Iida was running as fast as he could, trying to reach the door so that he could call the other teachers for help. Everyone else was trying to hold off the creepy mist guy from getting to their class rep.
Iida wasn't even wearing his helmet, and it made her think that he's too vulnerable right now for such a dangerous mission.
Her eyes trail up the man, wanting to do something, anything to stop him from hurting more of her colleagues, of her new friends.
That's when she sees his neck.
The mist man moves, trying to suffocate her friend, but she couldn't let him. She touches herself and jumps at the villain's neck, grabbing onto his neck gear.
"Go Iida!"
0o0o0
Katsuki rages, hitting another villain smack dabbed on the face, letting all his anger come out in the form of an unrestrained explosion.
Kirishima follows his lead by getting rid of the others.
"We need to get back to the gate and regroup with the others." The annoying pin cushion says, once the room was empty.
However, Katsuki did not agree.
"You go, I'll search the other areas."
"What?! We're being attacked everywhere by villains and you want to just stroll around like nothing?" Kirishima's voice was indignant, but he glares at him.
"I will search the other areas." He says once more, daring him to stop him. Kirishima stills for a moment before sighing.
"It's because of the Midoriya-kun isn't it? You're going to look for him?"
"Now that we established what we're doing, fucking move and let me go look for him in peace."
"No way, Bakugou. A man does not leave a comrade alone in a battlefield. I'll help you search for him. Two fighters are better than one, right? So I'll follow you." He told him, giving him a thumbs up, but shuts up when Katsuki lets an explosion loose next to his ears, a chameleon like villain drops not a second later.
"Fine." Katsuki replies and starts leaving the building.
0o0o0
Izuku couldn't react.
The yellow iconic goggle that everyone has gotten used to flew in the air, blood trailing behind it. The creature's hands only push Aizawa sensei's face harder to the ground, causing a loud crunch to be heard in the silence. It forced his other arm up, breaking it at the same time and twisting his joints.
His eyes were getting wider, he could feel fear creeping in, and could hear the amusement coming from the villain.
"A-Aizawa-sensei?" He chokes. Mineta was now holding onto Asui as the frog quirk user only crouches down, the fear only showing in her eyes and not on her expression.
"This is the anti-symbol of peace, the bioengineered 'Nomu'." The creature lets out an inhuman screech. Izuku didn't waste a second before floating in front of Asui and Mineta, trying to hide their sensei's form from them. Asui submerge herself into the water, only letting her eyes out and is currently making frog noises.
"M-Midoriya, t-this is enough, we can't do anything." Mineta stutters.
Suddenly, the mist villain appears, causing more stress to accumulate in his mind. The older villain was with everyone else after all-
His mind screeches in halt … did that means-
"Did you kill 13?" The pale blue haired villain asks.
"I put him out of action, but there were still students I couldn't disperse, and one of them was able to get away."
"Huh?"
His classmates were alright? Some of them were okay and are at the gate!
Someone is going to call for help!
The good news caused the blue haired villain to start scratching irritability.
"You … if you weren't a wrap gate, I would have crushed you to pieces." He told him before stopping and looking upwards. "We can't defeat a dozens of pros. It's game over. Let's just go home."
"Did he just say that they're going home?" Mineta starts to cheer.
But Izuku only stares at them, frozen as he thought rapidly. How could they just attack them, might have a possible way of killing All Might, and give up when they're attacked by the other heroes? This isn't plausible, none of this makes sense. Yueei will only beef up the security because of this, and they're not taking this seriously, game over?
GAME OVER? Is this a game to them?!
"Oh yeah, before we leave," The villain says, and slowly turns around to look at them straight in the eyes. Izuku hitches a breath. "Let's smash some of his pride as the symbol of peace."
In a split second, he only saw outstretched hands reaching out to Asui, the memories of the dissembled wall of the gate slams into his mind, the way Aizawa-sensei's elbow crumbled, and the sudden realization that Asui chan could-
Her face crumbles into dust, only leaving a skill behind.
He reacted by using his quirk, raising his arms and using every bit of telekinetic skill he gained through the years.
He pulls his hands, making sure that they were away from Asui, but he didn't realize that his action could lead to his own demise, as the fingers were now touching his hand.
But nothing happens.
Asui slowly gasps as she finally moves to see what happened, Mineta's eyes were now filled with fear and tears dropping down.
Izuku could only stare at the menacing red eyes, not warm like Kacchan's, not sharp yet compliant like Aizawa-sensei's. This one was just filled with blood lust.
The rest of his face was covered by a cut off lifeless hand.
"Damn it … You really are cool, Eraserhead." Izuku's eyes slowly trails back to the blood on the ground to see his teacher's sharp piercing gaze onto them, but he was forcefully shoved onto the ground. His other, used to be healthy, hands now crushed.
Blood starts to slowly pool around him.
Izuku snaps.

"I have a bad feeling Toshi, for a while now. I can't help but worry over Izuchan."
Inko called him in the middle of his talk with the principle. The principle allowed him to reply, seeing as it might have been an emergency. Looking up at the principle, the man sighs and tells him to go.
"I can see how anxious you are, the both of you seem to have perfect paternal instinct So I wouldn't doubt that something is amiss." Nedzu told him, and he runs off.
On the way, he sees one of Izuku's new friend running with fear on his face. He stops him and asks him what had happened, only confirming the anxious feeling he had in his stomach for a while now.
So he slams the door open, only to the fearful sight of the students surrounding an unconscious number 13, and the loud sound of his son screaming so loudly that he could have mistaken him to have had present mic's quirk instead of Telekinesis.
In great horror he finally witnesses what Inko has always feared, and warned him about. An aura was surrounding Izuku, visible with a dark, white and green colours. His eyes were intense and sharp, locked on target, yet hazy to everything else …
… and a creature trying to reach him.
He has come in time to see Izuku raise his arms above his head, the creature following its movement and raised off ground, only for his son to quite literally force him on ground.
The creature slams the earth, digging the ground and showing the amount of energy that went into the attack.
"It's alright children. The rest of the heroes are coming as well, so stay strong until they do." He told them, not managing to quite hide his anger.
The children were attacked, his colleagues disposed of, and now Izuku quite literally turning feral.
"Do not fear," He says loudly, ripping his tie off. "For I am here!"
He knew by then that everyone has heard him. It seems that it must have reached his son somehow as Izuku's eyes slowly dims, turning head to his direction.
"D-Da-"
But in that moment, Izuku was pulled to the ground. He screams out in pain, the other two students near him yell out his name and he watches in horror as the grabbed area of Izuku's leg starts to crumble, revealing a now slightly functioning leg brace.
Not too far to the side, he could see Aizawa with an arm completely devoid of its skin.
It didn't take a second before he connected what happened to Aizawa to this quirk, and so he jumps.
0o0o0
Asui immediately grabs onto Izuku with her tongue, jumping away as she held onto Mineta. The green haired boy was tearing up, holding onto his leg and now ruined gym pants, revealing a contraption of sorts.
"Ribbit."
Midoriya was wearing braces?
She then felt the air around her moving in multiple directions, villains were getting punched without her eyes keeping up or even seeing them being attacked. Not a second later, just as she lands, she finds All Might at their side, with Aizawa-sensei in his arms.
"Students, take care of Aizawa-sensei and get to the gate." He orders them, she nods in response relieved to hear that she could finally get away from this place along with everyone else.
"He hit me," They all hear and looked up to see the villain taking a fallen hand from the floor, the lifeless appendage was then reattached to his face.
"This is the violence of the government."
She ribbits again as she takes her tongue out and grabs onto her sensei, tasting the blood on his clothes, and pulling him so that to move him away from all of this.
"But I guess it's true however … that you are getting weaker."
"Midoriya-kun, can you walk?"
"I-I can't walk! My braces are jammed!" Izuku says hysterically, Mineta's eyes snapped onto his leg and looks up in stark realization.
"M-Midoriya-kun? Y-You can't walk?" The same question has formed into her mind, and it seems that Midoriya finally realized what he has said and slaps his mouth close with his hands.
Was this … was this why he flies everywhere?
Is that why he couldn't do some of the tests at the first day of school?
Or why he never had a previous PE record?
"A-All Might, that monster, it took a full on attack from me-"
"Midoriya-kun, I've seen it." He said, causing Izuku to flinch. Asui, didn't want to remember what happened just now, seeing her new classmate getting so angry, and using so much power was too much of a shock for anyone to process right now.
To think that the timid and shy Midoriya could be so deadly?
"It's fine, I'm proud of you that you could control yourself." He said, giving them a smile. Izuku only watches him, Asui couldn't understand what was in his mind, but it seems that the conversation has conveyed something to Izuku. He nods sharply and raises his hands, lifting him, her, Mineta and Aizawa-sensei at the same time.
Suddenly, they all start flying away.
It felt just like when she jumps, only there isn't a certain land point, and she couldn't propel herself properly. Yet it felt so freeing to be moved away from the battle that they have just witnessed. She looks behind them to see All Might fight that creature, the one Midoriya tried his best to hurt a few moments ago.
"How did he make a suplex look like an explosion? All Might really is on a whole next level?" Mineta says in wonder, they were now flying upwards the stairs, Aizawa-sensei slightly stirred at the beginning but seemed to have relaxed.
She couldn't be any more grateful to Izuku's quirk once they land at the top.
"Hey everyone! It's Asui, Midoriya and Aizawa-sensei!" Someone yells out, and everyone at the top cheered. They stopped when they heard the indignant yell of Mineta saying "I'm here too you know!"
"Oh god, you guys are alright. I was so worried. First everyone gets scattered and then 13 gets hurt, then Iida was going to get hurt as well and-" Uraraka kept mumbling as she ran to them, using her quirk on Aizawa-sensei to left him up.
She stopped when she looks at them, both her and Mineta dropped while Izuku stayed afloat. His brace now visible to everyone.
"D-Deku-kun?" She said, implications as to what she is seeing finally hits her. Silence followed suit as they stopped their talk and cheering, all turning to look at the green haired boy.
Midoriya was now shaking, looking down and avoiding their eyes.
"Y-You're-" Satou didn't know what to say. Ashido was frozen by 13 and Sero only looks at him with wide eyes, his smile slightly going downwards.
"So that's what I kept hearing coming from you." The tallest student, Shouji, says in a voice of understanding. His quirk obviously aided his hearing, so he must have been wondering what it was since the start of the year.
"Midoriya … Why-" Sero starts talking but Midoriya cuts him off.
"I-I got to help All Might." He yells, his trembling hands shaking and not a second later, he soars away from them.
"No, wait, Midoriya you can't go with your condition like that!" Sero screams, Asui leaping and trying to reach for him with her tongue but couldn't.
She stops however, as smoke starts to disperse on the battlefield below. She could now see the creature that was fighting All Might for a while, was now digging its hands into his abdomen, causing blood to pour out of both the wounds and his mouth.

He could hear them, the mist like man talking about how he'll tear All Might apart. Izuku couldn't let that happen, not to All Might, not to him, not when he just-
"Well, I'm not marrying him just because I'm in love with him, Izuchan."
"Then why?" Izuku asks his mother as he passes the carrots.
"It's because that he loves us, the both of us. Ever since we first met. He was always so concerned of us, and that melted my heart away." His mother says, smiling dreamily. "He made sure that you were safe, and spent as much time as he could with you, especially if it interrupted with your uncle's bonding time."
"Well … Uncle Naomasa does think that Mr Toshinor is cheating in baseball."
"What's his bases?"
"… that he's partly American or something?" They both laugh. When they do stop, they took a moment submerging themselves in the calm silence. His mother speaks up again.
"The fact that the love is mutual, that he is loyal, and that he cares about you, is all I have ever asked for." She said, smiling at him.
"LET ALL MIGHT GO!" He yells out, stopping away from them by a distance to use his quirk on the mist man. But the man disappeared and reappears behind him, ready to engulf him and either kill or tear his body apart.
He immediately uses his quirk to blast him away, and at that same moment, an explosion came from the opposite direction, hitting the mist villain in the face.
"You shit for brains Deku?! Do you not realize in how much danger you're in!"
"Kacchan!" He yells out in complete happiness, tears starts to fall. That's when he felt the cold surrounding their area, the ground freezing. He looks up to find Todoroki, half his body covered in ice, and using his feet to freeze Nomu. Kacchan took that moment of distraction to grab hold onto the metal part of the villain and slams him on ground, letting his hands explode near his face.
"All of you are here to kill All Might." Todoroki said in a very disdainful voice.
All Might was finally able to get free from the creature's grip. He was holding onto his injury, right where his scar was. Izuku starts feeling worried for him.
Then, a sudden flurry of red spikey hair slams the ground where Shigaraki was standing not a few moments ago.
"Damn, I missed." Kirishima says as he jumps back to stand by them.
"Stop getting so stuck up you foggy-nobody." Kacchan says darkly at the trapped villain, looking like a villain himself.
"When really, the symbol of peace couldn't be killed by you." Todoroki continued, letting more ice incase Nomu as he tilts his head. Once he has done so, his eyes lands on him, more specifically his leg. A flash of surprise crosses his one working eye before returning back to its emotionless state.
Izuku couldn't let this bother him further, not when the villain was quite literally standing in front of them. So he wipes his tears away with one hand and lets his telekinetic energy build up, creating an aura around him.
"Kurogiri, our exit and entrance has been overcome. It seems that we are in quite a pinch." The man said in a blasé manner.
"Back then, when I attacked him, he clearly said 'oh dear, that was close'. Now why would a completely mist made person be afraid of getting hit?" Katsuki said, his red eyes flashing in amusement. Izuku slowly starts smirking. Of course, Kacchan would have figured that out, he was super smart after all.
The wrap villain moves slightly but his friends lets his hands emit a small explosion.
"If I felt like you're going to move and be suspicious," He leans onto him, his smirk turning deadly. "I'll blow you up."
"Scary, Bakugou-kun. Are you really trying to be a hero?" Kirishima comments.
"This isn't the time to have this childish conversation." Todoroki cuts them off.
"In addition to capturing them, they're almost uninjured. Kids these days are amazing." The villain interrupts their childish banter loudly, catching their attention. He then tilts his head, looking straight at him.
"Well, almost. Ne, Bounty-kun. I thought you weren't using a wheelchair anymore, but to think your sneaking around trying to be a hero with that sort of injury?"
"Bounty kid?" All Might questions, and the villain laughs.
"Oh right. You heroes have no idea how we villains work underground. Let me explain it to you, that kid," He points at him, making him react with a flinch, Kacchan growls. Kirishima slightly moves to cover him from the front and blocking off the villain's view of him at the same time.
"Has had a 'Must be alive' bounty for a decade now. Really, it means kidnap him and bring him in."
"W-What?" This shocks Izuku, as well as everyone else. All Might seems to be the least affected by this.
"Is that why Midoriya-kun has been attacked continuously as a child?"
"Hmm, yeah sure. Why else would anyone want him? Well, now that I've seen his quirk, I can see why the cliemt would want the kid. He is after all," Here, he gives him a creepy smile. "A delightful little thing."
"You stay away from Izuchan you fucking pervert." Kacchan growls, Kirishima hardens his arms ready to attack and Todoroki builds up a wall of thin ice in front of them.
"What? Paralyzed from the waist down, yet still able to use such a powerful quirk. Any villain with a mind-altering quirk would have loved to get their hands on him. Since he's paralyzed, it means he could use his quirk without getting arrested as much as he liked. He would have made such a nice felon. It's quite unfortunate that the government already had their eyes on him. Never mind all of this, Nomu."
He orders, and the creature starts twitching, his body starts to move while incased in ice, surprising them all. Todoroki seems to be the most shocked as All Might pushed them all to the back.
"Everyone, stay away from-" He stops when he sees Nomu breaking off the ice and re-growing his limbs.
"H-How many quirks does he have?" He questions, All Might grit his teeth.
"You're afraid, All Might? He is after all, designed to take you on 100%. Nomu," Shigaraki orders again. "Get our gate back."
The creature completely disappears from their sight, Izuku snaps to Kacchan who was still holding onto the mist villain.
"Kacchan!"
Izuku's screaming was the only thing that Katsuki could hear, just as he sees a darkened hand ready to kill him.
AN:-
I am so sorry.
I could rant a bunch about how the past few weeks were hectic, but it's too much.
I'm taking your opinion guys. Should I end this fic where the anime ended and start another one for the second season (collection)? Or should I continue it till the point where I originally wanted it to end (along with the manga)?
