***I HAVE A NEW SIDE STORY! Yes, guys I have started a new side story that is connected to this main story. The new side story is called "Heroes Never Die; It's Hero Time, Anytime." Now it is NOT the spin-off story I promised to contain the time travel and alternate reality stuff. This side story is a collection of Omakes and potentially OVAs and the plan is to update that side-story weekly so you guys can confirm that: A. I am alive. B. Have some more fun scenarios with the characters and aliens. And C. I will use the Omakes as a means to inform you guys on the next real chapter's progress. So please have a look because it's fun and there's more of an explanation about the side-story within the first chapter. So if you have questions or suggestions please check out the explanation first.

*Also side note the last Omake in this collection is related to this current chapter. And I do suggest you check it out first because it gives a better hint as to who is supposed to appear during this chapter. But if you don't read it it's not necessary either. Admittedly my hint from the last chapter was like really really bad so I felt guilty.

***Also there is ARTWORK by "Voidv25" on Deviant art called "Henzu(Monster)" It's been out for a while but it's there for reference and it is the canon version of Henzu's monstrous form for this series! So what you see is how I imagine Henzu/Nue to look like. Also there is a reason I am mentioning this… ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡° )

*This story has a TV Tropes page so feel free to check it out.*

The Earth reflects off Vilgax's vile red eyes, his mind quiet and patient as he watches the Earth like an untouchable prize.

"Master." Psyphon greets, approaching his master from behind with his head bowed. "The League of Villains have arrived at the predetermined location."

"On time as agreed." Vilgax can appreciate their punctuality; less time wasted means more time dedicated to his cause. "Has the teleporter been repaired?"

"Yes. The last of the damage has been dealt with. Rojo has proven herself rather adept at adapting to such advanced technology."

"Excellent. Commence the retrieval process and prepare for their arrival."

"Yes, Master."

As Psyphon leaves, he spots one of the nearby monitors of the command center; there upon the screen it appears they just scanned an unidentified ship entering Earth's orbit. Figuring it is not of any concern Psyphon slinks away for the teleporter.


A man or rather a devil disguised as a man seemingly glides forward with confident, calculated steps, his attire clean and professional, almost entirely normal, but his dark skull-like mask dashes the illusion.

And despite the calm summer day and the deserted mountain forest not a creature dares to make a sound as if they can all sense that a top predator is near. And this man, this devil, definitely holds himself at the top of the food chain. He holds himself to a great degree that is not unfounded, he stands before the world with a power that any man should fear. But at this moment in time this devil is lying in wait, waiting for the arrival of another false god.

Soon these titans shall meet, soon he will know what this supposed Master has in store for him. But soon he will show this Master exactly why his own legion of demons call him Sensei.

"Hahaha! What's the matter, Handsy? You can't handle a little walk?"

"Shut it, Freakshow! Not all of us can move at superspeed, you asshole."

"Behave yourselves, the both of you. We must present ourselves in a professional manner."

"Hah! Yeah, so shut your mouth Handsy."

"Shut it or you'll lose yours."

All For One doesn't sigh, nor does he outwardly show his disapproval, as he turns to find his subordinates at each other's throats.

Tomura Shigaraki and Nue have definitely fallen under the spell of the summer heat, making their attitudes even worse as they once again buttheads. And as per usual Kurogiri is doing what he can to quell the situation.

"Calm yourselves." All For One speaks softly, with no hint of irony or danger. "Our guests shall be arriving soon."

With a huff Shigaraki turns away from his inhuman counterpart. "Sensei? Why are we here?" he swats at the swarming nates and bugs. "I get it meeting up in the middle of nowhere, no witnesses and all that, but there's got to be better places we could have done this? Heck at least pick a place with some cell service!"

Considering his apprentice's words, All For One incinerates a nearby swarm of mosquitos with the flex of his open palm. "I understand this location is far from ideal but it will serve its purpose well. Our…kind friend, Psyphon, has given us the responsibility of setting a meeting time and location and to allow for such an opportunity to slip by would be to our own disadvantage."

Nue frowns. "So in other words, you're trying to play this safe."

All For One nods a finger as if to congratulate Nue for figuring it out. "Ever since our meeting with our peculiar visitor-"

Shigaraki scoffs, rolling his eyes at the mention of Psyphon.

"-I have tried and failed to find out the identity of our visitor and his master."

His underlings are all stunned by the revelation.

Kurogiri can't seem to fathom the truth. "Surely you jest, sir. With all your resources surely you must have found something."

Shigaraki is just as confused and outraged. "Yeah, that Skeletar looking guy wasn't exactly conspicuous. You must at least know who he is?!"

"You would think so." All For One certainly thought so after all there aren't many men that can escape his reach but when one does he must admit that his curiosity is piqued. "But I believe that this Master of Psyphon's must have resources greater than I or at least a source of erasing their own identities and existences from any system."

Shigaraki's fingers clench, his eyes hardening behind the dismembered hand on his face. It is angering to find out they have nothing on a potential enemy that is more than aware of them.

Kurogiri nods in understanding. "I see you are playing this cautiously."

"Yes." responds All For One. "Knowledge is power but as of this moment our guest holds more knowledge than I do." They know more about them and their operations than they know about this mysterious unknown master. And with the weapons they witnessed Psyphon wielding, it's only that much more alarming and intriguing to see what else this Master has in store for them.

"But with this meeting I will change all that." Today All For One will have his answers and possibly walk away with even more; he's almost excited. It's been a long time since anyone other than that damned hero was able to challenge him like this.

"As for why we are here; it is best to have home field advantage, is it not?" All For One peers his head up as if he's actually able to take in the almost beautiful remote scenery of the mountain forest. "These mountains are remote and thus we are far from the prying eyes and ears of the police. Thus if we must defend ourselves then we may proceed to take care of them with extreme prejudice." Eliminate all witnesses and take their resources for themselves, classic. "We will also be relying on you in case this is a trap, Kurogiri."

Kurogiri bows before his master. "You can always rely on me, master."

All For One gives his approval with a nod.

"That can't be all." Nue spits out, his claw and fangs clenched. "Why else are we here? Sure I'd love to let loose in an all out brawl but we can do that anywhere. So why are we really here?"

Ah, he is an observant one. "We are here because I have an advantage hidden away for us."

Shigaraki frowns, surprised. "What kind of advantage?"

All For One smiles from underneath his helmet. "One that will truly show this false Master who is truly the one standing above."

All For One turns away, waiting for this Master to appear. His underlings wait for him to continue but after a moment of silence they come to the conclusion that they will not be getting any more of an explanation from him.

After a few more minutes of waiting Shigaraki's patience really starts to wear thin. "So, when exactly is this so-called great master supposed to get here?"

Before he can receive a proper response an unknown beam of light crashes down upon the League, showering them in a rain of transparent burning light.

The beam vanishes as quickly and mysteriously as it appeared, leaving behind a transparent, almost reflective-burn in the ground. The mountain forest falls silent once again as all human life vanishes from the remote mountains.

Well, almost all human life…

Heavy steps stomp forward and thick trees part as a giant arrives before the scorch mark. ˇThe giant leans down, sniffing before jolting up in surprise. "MASTER…?"


Cannon Busters Opening - Showdown

(Beginning Instrumentals)

An open road, a bright sun illuminating the beautiful summer day, and the rush of wind in one's ears as the Rustbucket cruises by moving across the road like a sports car before zooming past with grace.

We got places to go, things to do, people to see, and we got to get it done right away.

Izuku adjusts his hoodie, tugging it down over his body. All before gripping the dial of the Omnitrix and giving it a shine with his fingers.

So if you on the crew, guess we a team. Thicker than thieves and we all tryna help find a way

Hisashi buttons up his Hawaiian short, before grabbing his respirator and dawning it over his maw. He then snatches up a few loose tickets and pamphlets before tucking them away.

If you know the destination, we making conversation. Time is ticking, sun is setting, we got no time for waiting

Chopper latches his leg to his body, readjusting it. Before his arms pop out and flex about making sure they're working properly.

Might be the showdown, Looks like it's 'bout to go down

Bust through with the cannon, at the hoedown

(Instrumentals)

Izuku slams down on the Omnitrix! In a flash of green the screen scrolls down to reveal his aliens: Feedback, XLR8, Grey Matter, Four Arms, Ditto, Ripjaws, Terraspin, Water Hazard, Lodestar, Buzzshock, Diamondhead, Big Chill, Heatblast, Stinkfly, Wildmutt, Rath, and Wildvine.

Transition into title sequence: HEROES NEVER DIE; IT'S HERO TIME

Izuku grins falling through the air alongside Rath, Wildvine, and several other inhuman silhouettes! As the glow of the sunrise illuminates U.A. in the background!

We've been on this road too long, so long

Hisashi and Izuku stand back to back looking away from each other as the scene rotates around them.

I'm so far away from home

We've been on this road too long, too long

A legion of villains have their backs to the camera but as the camera slides through their line up, each of them turn to acknowledge the audience.

Kraab's claw flexes and clamps nearly clipping the camera.

Rojo folds their arms together and smirks as the camera rolls past.

Sunder raises his axe at the ready.

Silhouette (C) stands tall and proud, towering over the camera.

Nue bares a sharp tooth grin, his eyes gleaming with malice before the camera zooms away and up into to the forbidding sky, through the void of space, through the walls of the command ship, before halting before an all observing Vilgax.

Playing with fire (Fire!)

Take me higher

From up in the air Cinder releases a cloud of flames down upon Rojo below! Rojo cuts through the flames before rocketing up and clashing with the hero in midair!

We're on our way, we're on our way

Undivided (-Vided!)

All Might zooms past, his grin wide, as he slams his fist into Silhouette (C)! Silhouette (C) crashes into the ground, kicking up smoke, but it rises again, unharmed.

And ignited

We're on our way, we're on our way, yeah!

From the smoke cloud, Ochaco leaps back in a spin as Sunder soars after her. Sunder his axe at her but she counters it with a Ryou Sphere!

On our way, we're going

Nue grins madly as he stares down Deku who grins back just as determined and manically.

And no mistakes while we're rolling around town

We just came back round

The Rustbucket bursts forth zooming down the highlighted highway, gracefully zooming past Bakugou, Kirishima, Tsuyu, Hatsume, and a number of silhouettes!

Deku's hand slams down on the Omnitrix, the alien green light swallows the screen!

Woo!

Freeze on the image of Deku, Cinder, Chopper, and Kraab posing before the setting sun, their shadows casted far off over the ground towards the camera.

Ch.52 Divide and Unite

"Ahh!" Ochaco Uraraka's head slams down onto the matted floor with a loud thud! "Ow…" She rubs her aching head as she blinks up at her opponent. "Can't you be a little easier on me? I'm new at this."

"Sorry." Itsuka Kendo stands over her while dawning a judogi. "But the best way for you to learn is to gain experience."

Ochaco, also wearing a set of judogi, groans as she rolls onto her belly. "You mean the best way for me to learn is by kicking my butt."

"That's another way of putting it." Kendo admits with a cheeky smile. "But yeah, think of it as a roundabout way of motivating you." Kendo takes a readying stance. "But come on you almost had me, let's try again."

Try what again exactly? Well ever since the start of summer vacation Ochaco's been hard at work at perfecting her close combat capabilities. And who better to ask for help than the martial artist of the Hero Course, Itsuka Kendo.

Kendo, being the big sis that she is, was more than willing to accept, especially since they both technically planned this all out before the start of the Final Exams anyway.

And so here they are practicing judo of all things at the Kendo family's personal dojo.

Why judo though? Well since Ochaco's Quirk, Zero Gravity, focuses so much on her hands Kendo figured it best for her to learn basic grapples that would fit very well with her Zero Gravity.

And thus that all brings us here to Ochaco and Kendo squaring up for another sparring match.

Their arms are raised as they slowly circle and step closer and closer, ready to take down the other.

And almost by pure instinct they both charge at the same instant, grabbing onto each other, with their skulls pressing against the other. The girls grapple and twist trying to throw the other to the ground.

Kendo clearly demonstrates her expertise in the field as she swiftly gains the upper hand when she manages to twist herself backwards, pulling Ochaco along with her, before delivering a kick that tosses Ochaco over her head and onto the mat.

Ochaco hisses in pain but she quickly springs to her feet and lunges at Kendo.

Kendo spins around only to have her arms caught and twisted around as Ochaco spins herself around Kendo while looping her arms around the red-head's neck, placing Kendo in a headlock.

Kendo struggles to break free but with her arms confined and head held tightly she can barley move.

Ochaco grins, feeling like victory is her's. "I gotta ya!"

But like her Kendo isn't one to give up. "Not yet." Kendo thrusts her leg back and with one swift moment she pulls Ochaco's own leg out from under her!

Ochaco immediately goes down losing her hold on Kendo who uses the opening to throw herself atop of Ochaco and pin her down.

"Ow…" Ochaco groans before realizing she's lost again. "Aw, man…"

Kendo smiles, catching her breath, before letting the brunette go. "Hey you almost had it that time. Remember the basics: get your opponent on the ground by any means."

"Are you…telling me to cheat?"

"In a way…yeah I am." Kendo helps Ochaco up before pulling her in and admitting to her. "Technically. I mean I'm not teaching you how to compete in judo tournaments or anything so fair play isn't really a thing. After all, villains don't play by the same rules as heroes and so we have to get creative in ways to take them down." Kendo takes a moment to better explain this. "Judo is about unbalancing your opponent with physical strength but as heroes sometimes we need more than that to win whether that's our smarts, our wits, or our creativeness."

"Got it…" Ochaco nods, although she still doesn't quite get it.

A sharp pain in her shoulder makes her wince in pain; Ochaco grabs her shoulder, massaging it and trying to calm her aches. "Ow… Everything hurts."

Kendo chuckles, bumping Ochaco with her elbow. "Hey, that's a good thing. It means my lessons are working."

"No, it means they hurt." Despite the refute, Ochaco can't help but smile.

"So you wanna go again? I still have some time."

"I'd love to but I have other plans for the afternoon." Ochaco rolls her shoulder, trying to get the blood to flow. "I just hope it won't be as painful as this."

"Then let's get changed and I'll see you out."

"Sure! And thanks again for taking the time to give me some lessons, especially in your family's dojo! I really can't say how much I appreciate it."

"Hey don't sweat it, I'm more than happy to help. Now come on, let's get you cleaned up before you head out."

And so that's how a part of Ochaco's summer has been going: training and hanging out with Kendo.

Now it hasn't been all training and no play, she has done some work too: mainly helping out her folks with construction and babysitting ML-E but she's done other stuff too. She went with Mina to see Franchouchou live at a local stage, and that was a whole lot of crazy fun. She watched some WWE and that is always crazy fun, Gatorboy and Porcupine are always such a ride to see in the ring. Although the newcomers Purple Puma and Tiger Millionaire have really been moving up the ranks. And heck she has plans later to go on a special beach trip with the rest of the girls from class later this summer! So yeah, she's been busy too.

And right now she's off to one of her summer's best highlights.


As Ochaco excitedly strolls her way up the forested hillside, taking in the summer heat, chirping birds, and light breeze as she makes her way to Plumber base.

As she strolls up, she gives her social media a quick scroll to check in on the rest of her classmates which has been another favorite activity of hers.

There's Iida and his brother hanging out at Tokyo Disney, their mouse ear hats were hilarious. Tsuyu and her younger siblings are hanging out on their grandpa's boat at Lake Nal Hutta. There's even Tokoyami who's spending his summer in Tokyo as well of all places with his mom who is apparently a cop. Then there's poor Todoroki's been roped in by his dad, Endeavor, to hang out with him under the pretense of a supposed extended summer internship. But at least Kaminari and Jiro look like they had fun at the music festival, although from what she heard they did experience some bad weather. And of course, she's been checking in on Deku, seeing how his Father and Son Road Trip's been going: overall it's been good, well except for when it doesn't. But hey at least they're still having a good time, but hopefully they can get that darn RV fixed up first.

And so happy for her friends and classmates, knowing they're all making the most of their summers, Ochaco enters Plumber Base with a happy smile. However, she is so distracted by her phone she failed to notice the figure hovering above the tree line, the hot sun shining behind them and blinding anyone that would look up at them, their long locks waving in the wind as they clutch their weapon of choice. All the while silently watching as Ochaco disappears into the disguised Plumber Base.


Thirteen beams. "Glad you're back!"

"Glad to be back!" Ochaco cheers as she practically skips into the barren Plumber Base's main entrance that's filled with rows of empty desks, counters, and monitors. "And I'm ready for another productive day!"

"Glad to hear it. Then let's make it another great day!"

Another for sure since this isn't the first time Ochaco and Thirteen have met up this summer. All summer Ochaco's tried to meet up with Thirteen to help them out with Plumber work at least once a week for what kinda feels-like a twenty-minute adventure.

As Ochaco drops off her bag she pulls herself atop a nearby counter to sit. "I've been meaning to ask, outside of this, how's your summer been going?"

"Well since I don't have to make any lesson plans I'm able to focus more on my hero work." Thirteen smiles from underneath their helmet. "And I especially get to stay on top of my Plumber duties too."

"Cool." Ochaco scans the base, frowning when she finds no one else there. "Is Principal Nezu in another meeting today?"

"Sort-of. He's actually off planet right now."

Ochaco starts. "He is?" Now that's different.

"He's looking into starting a new project soon. So, he's borrowing the Razor Crest right now and he took One-One to help him."

Well, that explains why One-One hasn't come by to say hello yet. "What kind of project?"

"Not sure he didn't say." And probably won't until it actually gets approved.

Ochaco nods before pointing out another missing member of their group. "Is Mina not joining us this time?"

"She was but her mom made other plans for them. They're both out of town right now."

Ochaco starts, surprised. "Really? I had no idea?" Why didn't Mina say anything? She could have at least sent a text.

"No surprise Eirene really sprung it on her and they took off." Like just that morning. "From what I know she wanted to take Ashido somewhere remote, without distractions, to work on her Emote powers."

Well that explains why there wasn't a text: Mina couldn't send one if she wanted to if they're without a signal.

Ochaco claps her hands, leaping off the desk. "So, what are we gonna do today? Are we looking for a missing alien? Maybe looking into an underground alien tech smuggling ring? Oh! Or are we gonna stop an alien bomb from going off?!"

Thirteen shakes their head. "Nothing that exciting, hopefully." They holdup a small tablet. "We're just gonna be making some rounds is all." Check in on alien residents, check out the local haunts, things like that.

"So, a nice easy summer day." Ochaco beams more than happy to have a more relaxed day. "I can get behind that."

*BOOM!*

*INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT!*

Alarms blare as flashing red lights fill the entire base.

"An intruder?!" Ochaco panically scans for any signs of a disturbance. "What kind of intruder?!"

Another crash and explosion rings out from above.

The plumber and cadet lean back, staring up at the ceiling, their eyes widening as a red glowing blade cuts through the roof like a hot knife through butter.

The red blade slashes a nearly perfect triangle in the ceiling, but instead of the slab of metal falling from its place the triangular slab seemingly vanishes from sight as if teleported away. And out from the opening a large figure soars in, atop a high-tech glider like he's some grey-skinned alien version of the Green Goblin with a long white mane and dawning a red and black get up while also wielding a large glowing red axe.

"Izuku Midoriya?!" The intruder roars, swinging his axe with a cocky smirk. "Come out and face me!" His smirk grows. "I have something to axe you."

"He's not here right now!"

The intruder peers down to find a human youngling glaring up at him. The youngling's fist glows pink and a spherical aura forms around it.

"So, leave a message!"

Ochaco swings her arm and tosses up a Ryou Sphere.

The intruder eyes the ball, confused, his glider sliding to the side avoiding the attack. But the sphere instead crashes into the ceiling behind him, exploding upon impact!

"Gahhh!" The intruder is flung away by the blast's sheer power.

Ochaco grins, fist pumping.

Thirteen frowns, raising an eyebrow at her. "Was that a quip?"

The brunette shrugs. "Well, Deku does it all the time so…" She trails off letting Thirteen to fill in the rest: that she wanted to give it a try herself too.

"You insolent whelps!"

The two humans peer up to find the intruder glaring down at them from above.

"If you won't bring him to me then surely your screams will. Raaagggh!" The intruder dives down his axe swinging down from above!

"Look out!" Thirteen shouts as both they and Ochaco leap away as the intruder's glowing axe comes crashing down!

The axe smashes through the nearby counter, slicing it in half. The intruder pries his axe free as one half of the counter vanishes.

With a shake of her head, Ochaco peers up to find the intruder taking another swing at her! She quickly rolls out of the way as the axe slams into the ground!

She spins around, shoving herself to her feet, arms raised for a fight.

"You're a slippery one, aren't you?" The intruder growls as he looms over her from atop his glider.

Ochaco falters, stumbling back. "Just who are you?!"

The intruder grins raising his axe in declaration "I am Sunder, the finder of rare and precious objects!"

With his guard down, Thirteen jumps up and grabs him from behind. "And I'm Thirteen the Space Hero, high school teacher and kicker of asses."

Thirteen pulls back using Sunder's own weight to toss him right off his glider!

"Ahhh!" Sunder is tossed back, crashing onto one of the nearby monitors

Thirteen lands on their feet besides Ochaco who gives the pro hero a knowing smirk. "You too?"

Thirteen blushes. "I felt left out…" After all, even the intruder got a quip in before Thirteen did.

Sunder scowls, rising to his feet as his glider flies in from behind, he then jumps up, mounting it before flying up and over the heroes.

"You nuisances! I'll cut you both down a peg!" Sunder dives down at them, swinging his axe at their heads!

The two duck as Sunder soars past their heads.

With his back turned Thirteen leaps up, aiming their arm up at him. "Blackhole!"

Blackhole does what it's best known for, pulling in Sunder who's glider struggles against the gravitational pull.

"Damn you Red Spot, what are you a vacuum?!"

With Sunder distracted, Ochaco rushes in from the side where she fires out another pink glowing sphere. "Ryou Sphere!"

Sunder, seeing the attack coming, thrusts his gloved hand forward. His red brace produces a translucent forcefield shield!

The Ryou Sphere harmlessly crashes into the forcefield, imploding upon impact. Through the smoke of the blast Sunder dives down on his glider and takes a swing for the girl's head. "Heads up!"

Ochaco throws her head back as the glowing blade of the axe slices just inches from her cheek, slicing off a few strands of her hair.

Ochaco falls onto her back as Sunder soars up and away.

"Uraraka!" Thirteen slides over, making sure the hero student's alright.

"Where is he?!" Sunder roars from above. "Where is Izuku Midoriya?! Where is the Omnitrix?!"

Thirteen and Ochaco spring back up to their feet, readying themselves as Ochaco shouts back. "He's not here!"

"Then bring me the Omnitrix, surely you would lock away such a priceless weapon here!"

Ochaco glares back. "Sorry, but it's sort-of attached to him."

"Then where is he?!"

"Don't know." Ochaco sarcastically smirks back. "We don't talk much."

"Grr." Sunder growls in anger. "Ironic, considering you have such a mouth on you."

With his attention on Ochaco, Thirteen sneaks off to the side before aiming their hand up at the intruder. "Blackhole!"

The cap of their gloved finger flips open as Thirteen's Quirk begins to pull in loose debris, air, and the intruder.

Sunder's glider struggles against the gravitational pull, his hair whipping in his face as he braces himself against the pull. "I've had enough of you."

Sunder clutches a cluster of marble shaped grenades. "So I think it's time I cut ties with you."

He tosses the bombs allowing them to be carried off by Blackhole but before they even begin to disintegrate they explode, blasting smoke and heat across the Plumber Base.

"Ahh!" Both Thirteen and Ochaco are blasted away, both launched off their feet before crashing into nearby monitors.

Thirteen groans, picking themselves back up, their vision blurry and shrouded by clouds of smoke. Thirteen thrusts their arm forward at the ready for Sunder to appear. But Thirteen can only watch in horror as Sunder's glowing red axe slices pierces the smoke, slicing down in the air and right towards their hand.

Ochaco coughs waving at her face, desperately trying to wave away the smoke and dust. "Thi-*Cough!* Thirteen?! *Cough!*"

Ochaco gasps, her heart stops pumping for a moment, as through the dissipating smoke Ochaco spots Thirteen's dismembered gloved hand lying dead on the ground with no signs of Thirteen in sight. "THIRTEEN!"

Ochaco can't look away, she stares at the hand with wide terrified eyes until the hum of a glider manages to pull her attention away enough to find a smirking Sunder brandishing his proud glowing axe.

"W-what…? What did you do with THIRTEEN!?" Ochaco screams, tears streaming down.

Sunder smirks coldly. "I showed them the door."

"Rahh!" Ochaco screams with tears in her eyes as she furiously tosses out Ryou Sphere after Ryou Sphere at the murderer.

"Hahahaha!" Sunder laughs, as the sphere either doesn't graze his aura or he easily evades them as his glider begins to rise back up towards the entrance he carved out for himself. "Until we meet again youngling! Perhaps you will join your fellow Red Spot in hell! Hahaha!" And with that Sunder escapes without so much as taking a scratch.

With the enemy gone, Ochaco scrambles to what's left of Thirteen. Tears and snot stream down her face as she shakily reaches for Thirteen's still hand. "Thirteen…" Ochaco sobs, gently resting her fingers atop the still dead hand.

As Ochaco sobs her tears run down her face and drip onto the gloved hand. Her entire body shakes with sadness and regret, having failed her teacher, having failed to save them.

From under her fingers the fingers of the dismembered hand move and twitch.

"Hm?!" Ochaco is startled by the sudden movement, reeling her hand back.

Her eyes scrunch up as she notices a faded red glow around the hand's wrist. She hesitantly reaches for the hand again, but the moment her hand grazes the dismembered hand's aura the hand suddenly springs up and grabs Ochaco by her wrist!

"AAAHHH!"


"Ugh…" Shigaraki groans, grabbing at his spinning head as he props himself off the cold metallic ground.

He blinks away the haze as his vision returns and he finds himself and his allies in less than favorable conditions.

They find themselves contained within a large dome shaped imprisonment. The ceiling stretches high and with such a wide dome an entire football field could fit inside. The entire dome is composed of hexagonal panels all lining the floor and walls as red beams of light trail between the interesting grooves between the panels: providing poor lighting as soft red glows bounce between the hexagonal panels.

"Where in the hell are we?"

Nue, having been up for some time and is now scoring for an exit, scoffs.

"What's it look like? It's a prison." He snarls, his claws, paws, and hands clenching. "We've been had! They caught us with our pants down and fucking ambushed us. Raaawwrr!"

In his haste, Shigaraki scrambles to his feet scanning the large prison until his eyes land on a conscious Kurogiri. "Kurogiri! Get us the hell out of here!"

Kurogiri remains poised despite the unfavorable situation, and even more so as he responds with such a polite yet distasteful answer. "I cannot."

"Why not?!"

Kurogiri gestures further into the dome. "Because he does not wish me to do so."

Shigaraki peers around the dark misty servant, to find their master, All For One, standing before the dome silently admiring it's architect and ingenuity despite his lack of proper vision.

All For One remains poised, collected, and in control as ever despite their situation. The red beams of light illuminating his dark menacing mask as they silently await their fates.

Shigaraki tries but fails to quell his fury and annoyance even before his master. "Sensei, why haven't we broken out yet?! Between us all we can escape and burn this hellhole to the ground!"

All For One doesn't react, he doesn't turn to address his subordinate, he remains still and stoic as if awaiting something before he finally responds. "Calm yourself Shigaraki, you are playing into our host's hands."

"WHAT!?"

Nue frowns, it seems that even he's confused by All For One's response. "No offense Boss but I ain't sitting around to be experimented on."

Shigaraki scowls, begrudgingly agreeing with the monster. "For once I agree with the freak."

"Calm yourselves, the both of you!" Kurogiri scolds. "I'm sure our Master has a proper course of action for us to take."

His underlings wait with baited breath for his supposed course of action, but when it is delivered it is not what they expected.

"We are not endangered here."

Shigaraki's at a loss. "Sensei…?"

"This is not a cell nor a trap, rather think of it as a test. A test meant to gauge our reactions. They are testing the waters as it were, to see how we react whether we lash out, act brash, or recklessly." In other words their quote-on-quote host is trying to shake them, weaken them mentally, before proceeding with their discussion or demands. "Our host is a clever, dangerous one; pulling one's away from their own home field advantage often makes one fearful, angry, and confused." It's such a powerful tactic it is why horror movies often rip the protagonist from their familiar environments; to set them on edge and cause them to fear the unknown and uncertainty. "And as a result, they become easier to manipulate."

A chilling vox echoes across the dark imprisonment. "My intuitions were correct, we are like-minded."

Everyone, minus All For One, start spinning around and hastily search for the source of the voice but they find nothing. From the side of the dome a number of hexagonal panels seemingly vanish and bright light floods the entire dome, blinding the League of Villains forcing them to flinch away leaving only their master to stare back with unflinching resolve.

Through the newly made portal a figure, a massive hulking figure, emerges from within the light. The figure's presence and over sheering power shakes the villains to their core as if a titan of Tartarus itself has clawed its way onto the mortal plane.

However, All For One remains poised and confident before this titan, exuding his own power and influence like that of Zeus before his father, Kronos.

The titan approaches, towering over them all, even Nue. Their heavy metallic steps shake and echo across the dome, each step like that of a giant's. Their red steely gaze pierces their very souls, making them quake and tremble, as this green behemoth steps before them.

The titan stands before All For One, their sizes metaphorically comparable to that of David and Goliath.

The two remain silent, standing before each other as the portal seals itself away with the emergence of the hexagonal plates.

With the light gone the League finally take in their host. He is truly a monster in all sense of the word. With twisted tentacled arms that bulge with rippling muscles and cybernetic enhancements. Tentacles lining their skull, a kraken like appearance, and a hateful red gaze this is truly a monster from the pits of hell itself.

The titan, after a moment of observing the villains, finally speaks. "You must be the one referred to as Sensei?"

All For One, remains calm and unfazed, as he addresses the titan with such courtesy and respect. "You may refer to me as such but if we are here to discuss then I'd prefer my true moniker of, All For One."

"And you may call me by my designated name," The tian leans close as if warning All For One of the true terror he has confronted. "Vilgax."

Nue fails to holdback a chortle.

Vilgax frown from behind his ventilator, his red gaze landing on the chimera with disdain, but also with a hint of intrigue as he takes in Nue's monstrous, alien form. "Curious, you are certainly unique."

Nue scowls. "That says something coming from you, Cthulhu?"

Vilgax's red gaze narrows in warning.

Kurogiri, sensing the titan's disapproval, attempts to make amends. "I apologize on his behalf, sir." He bows his head in apology. "Nue isn't known for putting his best foot forward."

Much to their surprise Vilgax doesn't seem all that offended. "I am aware. Henzu Uuichi, the human with an ability to absorb matter and energy." Vilgax pauses before adding in. "Well previously human."

Nue growls, baring his jagged fangs; offended that he was once again considered less than human. "I'm still human, you tentacle-hentai faced douchebag!"

Kurogiri and Shigaraki's breaths hitch in response.

However they have nothing to fear as Vilgax takes the insult in stride, instead finding Nue's outburst somewhat amusing. "I see you have yet to break in this one."

"He is a work in progress." All For One admits without a hint of irony.

Vilgax's attention drifts over towards the boy who dawns severed hands as his attire. "Can I assume that this one is also a work in progress?"

Shigaraki's fingers flex dangerously at his sides. "Allow me to show you how much progress I've made."

"You have fire," Vilgax's muscles flex in warning. "but you lack the will to control such flames."

The two silently square off despite the distance, both ready and willing to take down the other if the other gave them any reason to do so.

All For One is quick to ease the tensions. "Shall we proceed with our…discussion?"

Vilgax visibility relaxes. "Yes, we shall."

And so All For One immediately begins with the flatteries, hoping to gain Vilgax's favor…for now. "Might I say what you did was quite the spectacle. I never heard of a teleportation Quirk that was capable of such magnitude."

"Quirks…" Vilgax considers the word before explaining. "I can assure you that there was no Quirk you bore witness to."

All For One's interest is immediately hooked. "Then pray tell, would you be so kind to elaborate."

Vilgax denies him this privilege. "Not yet. All in due time I'm afraid."

All For One nods in understanding, after all patience is a virtue.

But for Shigaraki patience is a burden. "Why'd you bring us here?!"

Vilgax eyes the boy like an adult that's confused by a child's tantrum.

"What do you want with the League?! What do you want with us?! And what the hell is this place?!"

All For One smoothly interjects. "Forgive my protegee, he lacks patience." But that doesn't mean he's wrong. "However I'm afraid to say that I too wish to know why you sought us out. Why do you desire to speak with me and my subordinates?"

Vilgax withholds his answer as he contemplates whether or not it is to his benefit, whether these humans are truly worth his time…

"I wish to see if you are worthy." Vilgax response, coldly yet straight to the point.

The villains are immediately put on edge wondering what this titan could possibly mean.

Vilgax eyes down at the devil known as All For One and declares his one demand. "I want you to prove your worth to me; your power."

All For One smirks underneath his mask. "My friend if you wish for a fist fight I must say that is rather brazen and might I say unprofessional of you."

"You misunderstand."

All For One frowns, falling silent as Vilgax explains.

"We are commanders, generals, leaders! And a leader's true strength, true power, can only be determined by the legions they command." With a flex of his wrist and the gesture of his hand several portals open up from above, light shining down like spot lights as three figures jump down into the dome's floor below.

The figures take a stance beside Vilgax one of them being his servant, Psyphon, followed by a woman in grey battle armor geared with an array of weapons, and finally a being that much resembles the purple-armored interloper of the Hosu Incident.

"I wish to see how you command your legion." Vilgax towers over his legion like the puppets they are to his master hand as his blazing red eyes pierce into All For One. "Now show me your true power."

'Is this guy insane?!' Shigaraki freaks, faltering in surprise. He can't fathom the logic here, why bring them all the way up here for a fight? What the hell is this?! "Sensei?"

"This is a chess match Tomura Shigaraki."

"Sensei…?"

All For One does not cower nor does he tremble before this force instead he stands before it ready to accept the challenge. "It would be terribly rude of us to deny our host's request. We came all this way, best not to let him down."

Even from underneath his mask Shigaraki knows, he knows that All For One…has a devilish smile across his mangled face.

"Show them the power we wield."

Like a dog giving in to his master's command, Shigaraki reluctantly submits to All For One's wishes. "Fine." He slowly raises his hand up like that of a zombie on the prowl for flesh. "But I still don't like this."

"What are you saying?" A grinning Nue stomps forward pounding his two pairs of fists together in unison. "I'm more than happy to throw down." He turns his three eyes onto Vilgax. "But no bitching when we're done; sorry to tell ya but you're gonna need some new ass-wipes after I'm done with them." His grin widens as his crystalized arm turns into a sharp jagged blade.

"Restrain yourselves, the both of you." Kurogiri slithers forward, his black misty body exspanding to that of a cloak. "Or your overconfidence may just be our downfall."

Psyphon scowls, hissing in annoyance. "Animals, such animals."

"Naw, they're villains. True blue villains." Rojo corrects, before realizing that she has to deal with both aliens and the League of Villains. "Guess this really is my life now, huh?" Sad isn't it?

"Hte eerrdas rae anogn elvo tshi." SevenSeven's hands shift and become a pair of powerful blasters that he swings up at the ready. "Oto adb yeth tna'i anogn ese ti."

And so the dark dome falls into silence as the two "negotiating" sides square off and prepare for battle. Both sides are ready to stand and fight for their individual master's desires. The League of Villains versus Vilgax's adversity.

"Show me." Vilgax taunts, almost excited at the prospect of a bearing witness to the League's potential. "Show me exactly what you humans are capable of."


"Come on. Pick up. Pick up. Pick up." A trembling Ochaco panicky taps on the monitor as she waits for the Razor Crest to answer her call, her eyes are red and puffy having just wiped away a stream of fearful tears.

Ever since Sunder came and left she's been a mess, fearing the worst for Thirteen. And the longer she's forced to wait the more she continues to freak out especially as her eyes drift over the Thirteen's severed hand sitting just across the counter.

After another moment the monitor lights up as a holographic screen appears before her.

"Principal Nezu! Thank god you answered!"

However it was not Nezu that answered but One-One instead, who appears to be in the middle of recording himself for some sort of video.

Glad-One gasps excitedly upon seeing Ochaco's face, he then turns back towards the recording camera and saying. ^Look everyone, it's our dear friend Ms. Uraraka! Say Hi!^ He waves up the teen. ^Hi, Ms. Uraraka!^

Ochaco's eyes finally land on the robot. "Huh? One-One?!"

^Yes it's me One-On-^

"Not now! Guys please! Where's Principal Nezu?!" Ochaco begs, her voice trembling and panicked.

^Ms. Uraraka are you okay? You seem…panicked?^

"That's because I am! There was this guy and he broke into the base and he and he just-look!" A freaked out Ochaco grabs Thirteen's still pulling hand and handles it before the monitor between two fingers. "Look at what he did to Thirteen!"

One-One's eyes widen in shock. ^Oh, my goodness. Now that is a pickle.^

Sad-One unceremoniously chimes in. ^Looks like the situation really got out of…hand.^

^This is no time for jokes I'm afraid.^ Glad-One reprimands before trying to help the poor girl. ^Don't worry Ms. Uraraka, we'll get Mr. Nezu on the phone right away!^

"Please hurry!" The severed hand twitches and flails between her fingers. "Eeekkk! It moved again!^

One-One immediately shuts off his camcorder before hoping away and disappearing into the Razor Crest.

After a moment Nezu's usual cheery and reassuring voice calls out from the other end of the holographic screen. "Hello, there."

"Principal Nezu!"

"Ah, Ms. Uraraka. Our little friend here," Nezu gestures down to One-One who's sitting by his side. "was just telling me you had a spot of trouble, did you not?"

"I did! Or we did… T-this guy he b-broke in and-and he was after t-the Omnitrix!"

Nezu frowns, concerned. "Was he now?"

"Yes!" Ochaco bows her head in disappointment. "But…he got away…"

"Pray tell, what was his name?"

"He…he said his name was Sunder."

Nezu's eyes widen. "Sunder?"

"Do you know him, sir?"

"I certainly know of his reputation." Nezu explains. "Sunder the Retriever. He's a mercenary who specializes in the retrieval of rare items, technology, and occasionally he'll take abductions of personnel as a job."

Ochaco's frown sinks further. "Yeah and murder them…"

Nezu's eyes furrow in concern. "Ms. Uraraka? It's come to my attention that Thirteen is not with you. May I ask where they are?"

"They're…here, sir…" Ochaco struggles to blink back the oncoming tears "or at least…what's left of them."

Taking a shaky breath Ochaco's hands tremble as she grabs Thirteen's severed hand and lifts it up for Nezu to see.

Despite being shown a severed limb Nezu remains remarkably calm. "Oh, dear."

"Thirteen…" Ochaco's still processing it but…Thirteen is dead. Her mentor, hero, and teacher is dead…and there was nothing she could do about it. "Thirteen…"

"Is perfectly fine!" Nezu interjects with a joyful tone.

"NANI!?" Ochaco gaps, shock written across her face. "What are you saying?!" Thirteen is dead! The only thing left is literally just a hand! What else is there to say?! "Principal Nezu! Thirteen's been vaporized! Sunder, his axe, he-he slashed Thirteen apart! He-he killed Thirteen!"

"I see why you would think that." Nezu waves away her concerns. "But fear not, I can assure you that Thirteen is still very much alive."

"How…?" Ochaco sniffs. "How can you be so sure?"

"Well the hand is still moving, yes?"

Yeah…she was trying to ignore that. It's actually really creepy how the hand jerks and twitches from time to time as if it's still alive and it's not just the nerves acting up.

"Y-yeah!" Ochaco responds, holding the hand away as the fingers twitch and clench.

"And do you see that energy surge?"

Ochaco frowns as she hesitantly turns the hand so she can examine the red glow encompassing the severed wrist area. "You mean that weird glow?"

"Yes, the weird glow; it's the result of dimensional displacement."

"Dimensional displacement?" Is that what the red glow is? She just thought that was a side effect of being vaporized.

^It's like shutting your bedroom door on a finger.^ Glad-One chimes in before his counterpart, Sad-One, takes over the explanation. ^But when the door closes your finger doesn't end up in your room but is teleported to your kitchen.^

"Woah!" Ochaco awes, her eyes wide with wonder. "So then where's Thirteen?"

"I'm afraid I can't say." Nezu frowns, bowing his head in concern. "But I can tell you where they're not;" For some reason Nezu smiles at the screen before stating with full confidence. "Safe."

Ochaco pales. "What does that mean?!"

^Well…^ One-One tries his best to explain. ^For a device such as Sunder's weapon to Dimensionally displace someone it needs to have a prior destination installed into the programming.^

Sad-One nods and adds in. ^And the only one that would know would be the wielder himself.^

^So in this case it's-^

^-Sunder.^

Nezu nods in agreement. "And with such a powerful device at his disposal he can send his victims anywhere across the known galaxies…" Nezu frowns before whispering under his breath. "Or known dimensions."

Ochaco, not hearing the last part, frowns, cupping Thirteen's hand tightly like it's the last connection she has to one of her cherished mentors. The hand's pulse is still there, meaning there is still a heartbeat, meaning Thirteen is still alive. "Is…is there any way to get Thirteen back?"

"There is in fact, but I'm afraid it'll have to wait until I return."

"Why?"

"Because I would need to build us a Retrieval Beacon Generator." Nezu explains. "One-One and I have the parts back in the base but it will take time to put it all together. I'll finish here quickly and return as soon as I can."

Okay, that's solved but there's still one major issue. "But-but what about Sunder he's still out there! He might try to go after Deku! I have to warn him!"

Nezu's reassuring smile returns. "Not to worry, it should be impossible for Sunder to find him."

^That's thanks to our wonderful jamming signal!^ Glad-One cheers way too loudly.

Sad-One sighs. ^Meh, it was a rushed job…^

But either way the jamming signal they created to stop Vilgax from pinpointing the Omnitrix's location will also work for any radar systems Sunder may have access to as well.

And Ochaco couldn't be more grateful; after all she'd rather not have to make Deku worried over something especially when he's supposed to be on vacation. "Okay, at least there's some good news. But still Sunder could be anywhere by now. What if people see him? What is…what if heroes see him?"

Nezu frowns before turning away to type away at his end of the monitor. "Then you best move quickly."

"Me?!"

"Ms. Uraraka. I am terribly sorry for burdening you with this but with Thirteen displaced and the Midoriyas also out of reach you are the only one we can depend on to stop Sunder and bring him in."

"But-but I don't know where he even is…!"

"I have that covered." And with a press of a button Nezu electronically sends something the girl's way.

Ochaco's phone buzzes in her pocket.

Ochaco pulls out her phone and opens it up to find a strange new update on it. "What's this?" She unlocks the phone to find what's been installed. "An app?"

Nezu nods. "It is. I just sent it to you."

"What's it for?"

"It'll help you find our intruder." Nezu explains before diving into more details. "Dimensional displacement takes quite a lot of energy, more so than an entire city can use. And that program is specially designed to use the base's own radar systems to detect high concentrations of energy levels."

Ochaco gasps. "Like Sunder's axe!"

"Yes, like Sunder's axe."

"Cool!" She quickly opens the app and the program immediately gets to work and before she knows it a display of Japan appears before the image zooms in on a red moving beacon. "Hey it's working!"

"Excellent."

^Where's he going?! I bet he's off to a carnival!^

^I somehow doubt that…^

Ochaco frowns as she stares at the blink red dot traveling across her screen. "I…don't know, but he's gonna get there quickly at his speed."

^Either way she'll need to get there quickly. Maybe she can take the train!^

^Why the train?^

^Well I like trains.^

^You would…^

Ochaco ponders her options for a moment. "I…might have a way to get there quickly." She begins to text away on her phone. "Let me just ask them…"

Nezu and the droid wait for a reply and after a moment Ochaco's face lights up as she gets a response. "Alright! I got a ride!" With a spin Ochaco rushes to the exit. "Well I'm off to stop Sunder!"

But Nezu's call forces her to a screeching halt. "Wait just one moment if you would. You forgot something."

Ochaco turns and looks to find Nezu pointing down from the holographic screen. Ochaco follows his paw to find Thirteen's severed hand lying on the monitor below. "Thirteen's hand?!"

"Yes, it might prove useful."

Ochaco's not so sure and not to mention it's still kinda creepy how it move and stuff. But if Nezu thinks it's a good idea then it might be worth bringing it… Maybe she can find a plastic bag lying around somewhere; it wouldn't look good to be carrying a severed arm around town afterall.

And so taking Nezu's advice Ochaco grabs Thirteen's hand by, well, the hand. "No need to worry Principal Nezu." Ochaco turns towards the screen, her eyes brimming with determination. "I'll stop Sunder no matter what!"

Nezu smiles, grateful for her determination. "Just one more thing. With me being off-world and Thirteen out of commission I'm afraid we can't provide a good enough alibi to give you permission to use your Quirk out in public."

Ochaco's blood runs cold. "What…? Are you saying…?"

"Discretion is key for this mission: no uniforms, no weapons, and no aid from pro heroes." Nezu bows his head, tucking his paws behind his back. "We must ensure that the public perceives Sunder as a regular villain especially if heroes in the area get involved."

Oh, right, she might have to deal with that. "Then…what do I do?"

"My suggestion would be to lure Sunder away from the city or at least from public view. And then you can then deal with him at your own discretion."

And a cover story wouldn't be too hard; after all not every villain is "captured" heck more villains escape conflicts against heroes than one would think but those stories are hardly ever published. No one likes to read about heroes failing, the wins are far better for publishers to sell.

"Right." Ochaco drips her phone tightly as she tucks Thirteen's hand under her arm. She then glares down at the phone just as the red dot arrives at Hosu City. "I really have my work cut out for me this time."


"Woah, I made it!" Ochaco breathes as she hops down onto the sidewalk, raising her hand in the air in triumph; the plastic bag holding Thirteen's arm sways in her grip. "Thanks for the ride, Mrs. K-T!"

K-T, ML-E's mother, smiles sweetly as she turns away. "Oh it was my pleasure, I've been needing to come this way to pick up some Meilooruns. Well I'm off!" K-T waves as she begins to walk away. "I'll see you later then."

"Yup!" Ochaco waves back. "I'll see you on Friday to babysit ML-E! And thanks again!"

K-T zips away and out of sight in a blink of an eye leaving Ochaco alone within the alleyway.

'Okay!' Ochaco spins around to face her challenge head on. 'Prepare yourself Sunder. Because I am here in Hosu City!'

Hosu City's buildings and skyscrapers tower over the girl as the sun beats down from above and a light breeze trails behind the incoming trains. The city is still undergoing repairs from the Hosu Incident but thanks to the city's efforts all of the damages have nearly been repaired; to the point that one wouldn't be able to tell that such horrors had ever occurred here.

So now that she's here before the vast city there's only one last obstacle to overcome.

"Where do I start looking?!"

Yeah, unfortunately, Nezu's app isn't exactly accurate. It's much like how weather apps work: it can pinpoint the city you're in but it cannot tell precisely where one is within said city. But that shouldn't really have been a surprise since Nezu did just cobbled it together in less than a minute.

"He can literally be anywhere…" And she needs to find a better way to find him, and quickly too. But with this program being so limited she doesn't have many options left. "Oh, I wish there was an app that could actually find him!"

A spark lights up in her memories, making her gasp. "Wait, there is one!" Ochaco scrambles for her phone, the plastic bag bumping into her leg, as she whips out her phone and begins to scroll away at it. 'I'll find you yet, Sunder.'


Meanwhile, from high in the sky, from amongst the clouds Sunder makes his descent by circling above the city before having his glider skim over the tall buildings. His glider hums and breezes over the buildings, not at all hiding his presence as he sweeps over the busy streets and bustling humans. All the while Sunder searches, scanning the startled and bewildered crowds for a mop of green hair upon a youngling's head.

But after searching and scanning he comes up empty.

Sunder scowls as he zips above a donut shop where he brings his glider to a hover beside a large donut sign, so large that he steps inside the donuts hole and stands there as unconcerned passerbies point his way. "Izuku Midoriya, there's only so long you can hide from me. I will find you." Gripping his axe he swings it around and slices through the sides of the large donut sign, destroying it as the upper half vanishes. "And I'm willing to chop this city down piece by piece if I have to."

"Excuse me, sir!"

Sunder starts, blinking down to find a human wearing an odd attire of a blue and white, skin-tight, long-sleeved shirt that tucks into his orange gloves. Along with dark pants, white boots, and sports a signature helmet that features a fish-like fin and blue visor.

The pro hero, Manual, offers up a kind friendly smile up at the intergalactic mercenary. "Sir, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you to exit the donut!"

Sunder glares down at Manual as more and more passersby stop to see what's going on.

Sunder scowls, pondering his situation. "If I'm not mistaken this planet admires their warriors. And Izuku Midoriya is one of them or at least a fletching." And like many warriors and defenders of their worlds they are prone to calling for reinforcements when against impossible odds.

And like that a cruel conniving smirk smears across Sunder's face.

"Sir, I'm gonna have to ask you to put down the axe as well."

"Of course, warrior." Sunder's wicked smirk widens. "I'm willing to bury the hatchet."


Ochaco's face lights up. "Here we go, the Hero Alert System!"

It's a special application that Gran Torino showed her during her internship; it's an online board specifically made for heroes allowing them to post villain alerts, kidnappings, S.O.S.s and more.

And so tucking the plastic bag under her arm, Ochaco uses both hands to scroll through the app. "Now hopefully someone will report seeing a strange goblin riding around on a glider."

And just like that a new alert is uploaded.

"Hm? Is that…?"

The alert reads: [Axe wielding suspect on the rampage across Hosu City. Heroes and sidekicks are requested to provide support and crowd control.]

"IT IS!" Ochaco takes off running, Thirteen's hand shaking inside the bag, as she grips her phone tightly.


"Sir, please, you need to calm down!" With an open fire hydrant stationed nearby Manual flexes his fingers, redirecting the flow of water upwards.

Sunder slashes his way through the skyward torrent. "Don't put a damper on things." he smirks as his glider dives down towards the pro hero. "The fun is only just beginning!"

As the two clash and fight amongst the city street already large crowds have come to spectate the showdown. The only barrier between them and the fight are the sidekicks working crowd control.

"Go, Manual!"

"You got this!"

"Kick that guy's ass!"

"Stay back please! This area is not safe!"

Back on the street, Manual fires off a pair of streams but Sunder easily swerves and glides through the oncoming assault.

"Not good enough, warrior." Sunder smirks, diving down with his axe at the ready. "It appears you're all washed up!"

And with a swing of his mighty axe Sunder aims for the kill.

"Hahaha! Sorry to interrupt! But do ya mind if I join in on the fun?!"

"Ah!" Sunder is forced back as a green fireball nearly singes his long locks.

"Oooh, so close." A woman with flaming green hair gives a wide grin as she struts across the battlefield.

"Burnin?!" Manual gasps in surprise. "What are you doing here?!"

Burnin grins over at Manual. "Haha! The boss man wanted me to stick around for a while, especially after the Hosu Incident. You know, ensure the peace and all that."

"Well your help is much appreciated." Manual smiles back before turning his attention back onto their opponent. "This guy is tough and that glider and his weapon…I'm getting bad vibes from all of it." All of it is just so…unnatural, but why he cannot say.

From above Sunder's scowl hardens, turning cold and dark as he examines the current situation. 'More defenders have arrived but not Izuku Midoriya.' Where could he be? By chance is he not here? Or is he on his way? Perhaps some bloodshed will bring him forth?

"Warriors!" Sunder roars down at the elemental duo. "Prepare yourselves for I will bring about your end."

Despite the threat on her life, Burnin can't help but grin. "Sheesh, talk about lame. Hey, why not say something more original?! Could you be any more cliche?!"

Manual sweatdrops. "Please don't egg on the maniac."

Sunder smirks, gripping his glider as it zooms down towards the pros. "Raagghh!"


'Oh, god, please no!' A panicked Ochaco rushes out from the backstreets, nearly colliding into the watching crowd. 'This can't be happening?!'

But it is and Ochaco can only watch in horror as Sunder nearly takes Manual's head off only for him to be forced away by a fireball courtesy of Burnin who just arrived on the scene.

Ochaco's entire body is trembling, her blood running cold even though her heart is beating a million times faster than normal. 'This is bad. Everyone…everyone can see him! They're-they're all gonna find out t-that-that he's an alien!'

"Did you see that?"

Ochaco pauses, looking up and listening in on the crowd.

"Talk about crazy?"

"I know right after the Incident the hero presence around here has been intense. There hasn't been any villain attacks during the day in a long while."

"That's some cool support items. But how did a villain get a hold of them?"

"He probably stole them or something."

Ochaco visibly relaxes as she lets out a relieved sigh. 'Thank goodness. It looks like no one suspects anything.'

But that doesn't mean the situation is that much better the longer Sunder fights Manual and Burnin the longer they or someone else might suspect something.

She needs to act fast before anything happens. But what's she supposed to do? She can't go out there and confront him herself, not with Public Quirk Use Restrictions. All she has to work with are her own wits and a severed hand. And fighting Sunder out in the open is definitely not an answer.

'I…I need to lead him away somehow. Lead him somewhere secluded at least and deal with him quickly.'

But how? What would draw his attention and lure him away from the pros?

'The Omnitrix would but…?" Ochaco frowns, knowing full well that she can't just lie to Sunder and hope for the best; she'd have to make it convincing.

She needs something that'll really lure Sunder away, but what?

As Ochaco ponders on what to do, from the corner of her eye a large machine catches her eye. 'Would that work?'


Sunder takes a torrent of water to his chin, forcing him back.

A grinning Burnin pounces, a pair of green fireballs in her hands. "You're toast!" And she tosses the fireballs.

Sunder quickly bats the fireballs away with his axe before zipping forward before either she or Manual could grab him.

Manual scowls as Sunder circles around in the air. "He's too slippery. We need to somehow corner him."

Burnin glares up at Sunder as he comes in for another attack. "Then might I suggest a pincer attack?"

Manual nods. "You may."

Now that they have a plan, Burnin runs off to the side leaving Manual to divert Sunder's attention onto him.

And Manual is quick to play his role by firing off stream after stream at their foe. Sunder cuts and swerves past the incoming streams as he charges in closer and closer.

And with his back turned, Burnin goes in for another attack from behind. "Got ya now, ugly!" And this time she rapid fires fireball after fireball at Sunder's back.

With two opposing elements racing towards him, Sunder quickly jets his hands out generating a pair of forcefields to meet the incoming attacks.

The water and fire collide into the shields, parting and enveloping around them before colliding into each other even while swallowing up Sunder. The two opposing elements clash and from it bursts out clouds of hot thick steam.

The crowd panic and part away as the steam envelops the entire block, hiding everyone's vision.

And out from the thick steam cloud Sunder rips his way out from above. Now free of the steam he scowls down at the shrouded street, trying to spot his foes amongst the mist.

But with his back turned he fails to see the incoming soda can. "Ah!" The can bounces off the back of his head with a clang! "Who dares?!"

Scanning the horizon he spots the culprit on a nearby roof.

Ochaco, gripping her plastic bag tightly, glares at Sunder through the hot steam.

"You?" Sunder glares back, a nasty scowl on his face. "Followed me all the way here did you?"

Ochaco doesn't respond, instead she shifts her body to the side while raising her free hand ever so slightly, drawing Sunder's attention down to it.

Sunder scowls, his eyes narrowing until they land on a cylindrical item cupped in Ochaco's hand; it's dark in color with a shiny metallic coating with green and silver trims.

And instantly his eyes widen. "The Omnitrix?!"

Ochaco grins; he took the bait. "You want it? Then come and get it!" Ochaco spins and dashes away, jumping down from the roof safely thanks to Zero-Gravity.

Sunder flies after her, zooming over the roof and peering down where he spots Ochaco having already made it down to the alleyway below and is already sprinting away at full speed.

He immediately gives chase. "Hand it over youngling!"

"Over my dead body!" Ochaco slams her hand onto a nearby dumpster, her fingers lighting up against its surface as Zero-Gravity takes hold, and before she shoves into the air.

"That's the idea." As predictable, Sunder uses his axe to slice his way through the floating obstacle but instead of creating a clear path for himself he is met with a face full of trash and garbage.

Sunder gags as he slows to a stop so he can wipe his face free of the trash and grime.

When his vision is cleared up he finds that the youngling's already a fair distance away. "You can't escape me!" He roars gliding after her.


Meanwhile, back on the main street the last of the steam finally clears away. Manual, Burnin, and the sidekicks all scan the street and sky but they find signs of Sunder.

Burnin frowns, disappointed. "Ah, don't tell me he ran away."

Manual instantly takes charge by directing the other heroes. "Spread out and search the city, report back the moment you find the villain!"

"Yes, sir!" His sidekicks all rush away to search.

Manual frowns, staring up towards the now clear sky. "Just what was with that guy?"

Burnin frowns. "Couldn't tell ya." She grins, her hair flickering and whipping behind her head. "But I'll be sure to ask when we find him."

"Then let's hurry. Who knows where he went off to?"


Ochaco sprints through the alleyways, One For All coursing through her legs giving her a much needed boost of speed. As she dashes through the city she races forward only to find a tall wall at the opposite end of the alley. Without so much as hesitating Ochaco makes herself weightless just before she leaps up and over the wall in a single bound.

"What the-?!" She jumped a little too high and her eyes widen in surprise when she finds herself floating just over a train depot.

Quickly scanning the train depot she finds no signs of life. And with the tall walls and large warehouse she knows for a fact she may have stumbled upon the best secluded spot she could find.

She floats down to land and she takes off in a full sprint for the large train warehouse the moment her feet hit the ground. Her hair and plastic bag all whipping in the air as she books it.

Sunder soon follows, crashing through the wall without a care. "Give me the Omnitrix, now!"

"Only if you ask nicely!" Ochaco shouts back as she enters the warehouse.

Inside the large warehouse she finds rows and rows of quiet train cars and engines, all stored away so they can undergo repairs.

"Hand it over!"

Ochaco dives forward just as Sunder's axe whizzes just over her head. She quickly rolls around so she can face her opponent head on.

Sunder glares down at her from atop his glider. "So defiant. Do you wish to prove yourself as one of this planet's defenders?"

Ochaco glares right back, pocketing her decoy Omnitrix. "Something like that, yeah."

Sunder smirks as he grips his axe. "Let's see if you're cut out for it then. Raagghh!"

Sunder charges forth, his axe slashing through the air!

Ochaco barely has time to dive away as his axe comes crashing down on the spot she just occupied. But she doesn't have time to relax as Sunder swings again, forcing her back.

Ochaco nearly stumbles off her feet before she dives to the side behind a nearby train car.

Slam! Sunder's axe slashes into the train's side. "Hold still, dammit!"

He pries his axe free before zooming after her and taking another swing at her head!

And once again Ochaco barely manages to evade the incoming weapon.

'He's quick, too quick!' Ochaco panics as she makes herself weightless as she leaps back and onto a nearby train car. 'I can't catch a break!'

Sunder quickly flies up to meet her.

Ochaco leaps off the train allowing Sunder to just fly on by. 'I need to slow him down somehow! But how?!' She scowls as Sunder circles around so he can soar in for another attack.

'I've been training for this.' Ochaco readies herself for said attack. 'Time to turn all that training into a success!'

And so she prepares herself, her hands up and fingers ready to grab, standing her ground as Sunder races closer and closer.

Despite her racing heart and the impending doom, she keeps her eyes trained on Sunder's movements on how his arm flexes as he swings back his axe. She focuses in on the axe waiting and ready for the right moment to strike just like Kendo taught her.

Sunder roars swinging his axe down and then in that moment does Ochaco make her move!

As Sunder's axe smashes into the ground she pounces grabbing onto his arm with her legs while wrapping her own arms around his neck and other free arm.

Sunder tries to pry free but with the way she grabbed him he is unable to twist his arms around to grab her. "L-let g-go!"

Ochaco's grip tightens around his neck. "Why do you want the Omnitrix?! Is it so you can hand it over to Vilgax?!"

Sunder pauses, finding the question odd, but he answers. "Vilgax?" A cold smirk stretches across his face. "Perhaps I will but that all depends on how much he's willing to bargain."

Ochaco blinks, surprised. "So, he didn't send you?" She just assumed that he did.

"Sorry to disappoint but no." Sunder smirks, his red eyes piercing into Ochaco's. "I came here for my own gain not anyone else's." His body trembles against Ochaco's hold as his free hand struggles to reach for his side. "And when I've set my sights on a priceless treasure I'm not one to cut my losses." Despite struggling against his binds he manages to grab a little something from his side pocket. "As you'll soon find out."

"Huh?"

Sunder smirks as he drops a little marble-sized grenade onto the ground.

*BOOM!*

The bomb goes off in a brilliant show of heat and smoke, blasting them both off their feet!

"Yaaahh!" Ochaco screams, losing her grip on Sunder as she's thrown backwards!

Ochaco lands on her side hard, losing her grip on the plastic bag and Thirteen's hand which go flying off to the side. Thirteen's hand flies out of the bag, landing on the ground seemingly lifeless except for the occasional twitch and clench of the fist. But her bad luck doesn't end there as her decoy falls right out of her pocket and goes bouncing off the nearby rail lines.

"No!" Ochaco shouts but before she can even get up Sunder soars in scoping up the device as he zooms past.

Sunder greedy grin widens as he clenches his prize. "Haha! Yes, the Omnitrix is mine! It's mine-EH?!"

This is no Omnitrix, it's a Monster Energy drink with a black can, silver trims, and green logo!

"What. Is. This?!" Sunder roars as his hand begins to crush the tin can. "Do you play me for a foul-Bleh!"

The energy drink explodes out as he crushes the can, splashing onto his face and mouth.

"Bleh! What is this?!" Sunder shouts, trying to whip away the foul tasting liquid. "It tastes like teen angst and bad choices!"

Ochaco stumbles onto her feet, dread making her hesitate. Shoot it looks like he found out but hey how else was she supposed to lead him here? She was just lucky a vending machine happened to be nearby.

Sunder glowers, his red eyes blazing with rage. "I'm gonna kill you for your insolence youngling! Raagghh!" And he charges moving faster than he had before, his axe's blade piercing through the air in a blink of an eye!

Ochaco stumbles back, and she gasps, her loss of footing is gonna be the end of her and she can only watch in silent horror as the red blade of Sunder's weapon of choice comes crashing down from above.

But before her life could be cut short a miracle happens via Thirteen's severed hand..

Without warning Thirteen's gloved finger flicks open and instantly the effects of Blackhole are felt.

The pull is so strong that Sunder's axe is forced to the side, completely missing its intended target.

"What is this?!" Sunder roars as both him and his glider are slowly pulled towards the endless abyss.

With his attention averted Ochaco struggles against the pull but she manages to dive away and spring to her feet.

Meanwhile, Sunder drops more bombs towards the Blackhole, the bombs explode before reaching the severed limb but they do their job and blast the hand away thus bringing Blackhole to a close.

Sunder tsks before redirecting his attention back onto the girl.

Ochaco glares back slowly, raising her fists up for the fight.

However Sunder doesn't respond in kind, instead he lowers his axe and his guard.

Ochaco starts, she hesitates, wondering what he could be up to. "What's the matter? Don't think you can take me on?" She taunts, trying to goad him into a fight.

"I'm more than capable of taking you on, youngling. But you are nothing but a distraction."

Ochaco's breath hitches.

"Your true purpose here is to divert me away from Izuku Midoriya's trail." Sunder grins wickedly at the startled girl. "But he won't escape me, no matter where he hides I will be taking the Omnitrix for myself." And with that he turns and begins to fly up and out of the warehouse, slashing open an exit for himself through its roof.

"Hold it!" Panicking Ochaco fires a Ryou Sphere after him!

But seeing it coming, Sunder blocks it with a simple forcefield. The blast barely knocks him back as now he's on his guard and his glider manages to fight against the blast.

"You're out of your league youngling." He turns and begins to fly away. " It's best if you just cut your losses and go home. Hahaha!" And with that he's gone, Sunder managed to escape.

And Ochaco feels the loss, collapsing to her knees as Sunder vanishes from sight.

She failed and who knows what the consequences will be?


"Impressive. Most Impressive." Vilgax strokes one of his tentacles, impressed by the League's valiant efforts. "Despite the results you performed far more admirably than I had first presumed."

And the result of this struggle is a draw.

Nue has Rojo immobilized in his massive arms.

Rojo winces as Nue's grip around her tightens. "G-get y-your paws off me!"

Nue growls back. "Hold still will ya. Or I'll tear your arms off." He grins, his jagged teeth just inches from Rojo's terrified face. "I ain't no gentleman ya know."

SevenSeven has Kurogiri pinned down with a blaster to his head.

Kurogiri lies prone as SevenSeven jabs the blaster into his head. "I'm sorry Master, I failed you."

From above, SevenSeven glares down at the black smoked villain. "Tnd'o eefl oto dba. Het ouhrta tac'n eenv lanipex who uyo otsl yyaawn."

And finally both Shigaraki and Psyphon are locked in combat with Shigaraki's hand on Psyphon's face, a mere pinky away from disintegrating it, while Psyphon holds a wrist blaster above Shigaraki's heart.

Psyphon scowls from behind Shigaraki's hold. "If you don't remove your filthy hand this instant or I'll burn a hole through your chest."

Shigaraki glares right back, not showing a hint of fear. "Try it and watch as your face turns to dust."

Having watched the fierce brawl, All For One and Vilgax stand at opposite ends of the dome both are unscratched having stayed out of the fight and instead took the opportunity to size up and analyze their opponents.

All For One offers up some praise. "I thank you for the praise and might I say your forces are certainly not to be trifled with."

"Of course not." Vilgax confirms feeling like he still needs to demonstrate his own superiority. "Not many can stand against my power."

All For One responds in kind. "Power indeed."

With the match done, Vilgax orders for the combatants to disengage. "Stand down, all of you."

SevenSeven's the first to stand down, his blasters withdrawing as he steps away allowing Kurogiri to get back up on his feet. Nue growls in annoyance but he too complies releasing a very ticked off Rojo.

But the last group isn't so cooperative.

"Yeah, stand down." Shigaraki growls, not removing his hand from Psyphon's face. "Stand down, you dog."

Psyphon spits back. "Watch your mouth, creature. or I'll carve it off myself."

With hostilities growing, All For One is quick to extinguish it. "Shigaraki, show our hosts some respect."

Psyphon scoffs. "Pft. Respect must be a foreign concept for you."

Shigaraki growls back. "Why you son of-"

"Shigaraki."

Shigaraki scowls hard, clearly he would love nothing more than to turn this entire place into ash and dust but with his master tugging on his leash he forces himself to stand down. But that doesn't mean he has to like it though.

Shigaraki removes his hand albeit with some hesitation like he's considering ending Psyphon here and now but he backs off, but not before throwing one last nasty glare not at Psyphon but the one who dares to perceive himself as powerful as his Sensei, Vilgax.

Vilgax's yellow eyes pierce right back but he remains unaffected by the silent hatred thrown his way. Such hatred and defiance is nothing new to a warlord such as himself.

"You command your legions well." Vilgax praises turning his gaze back towards the suited devil. "And I can tell that you certainly have a plethora of resources at your disposal."

All For One smiles back from behind his dark mask. "Why thank you my friend, it seems you really can tell one's true character."

"But I'm afraid your resources and knowledge are…lacking."

All For One frowns, finding Vilgax's claim to be incorrect and almost insulting. "I beg your pardon?"

"Knowledge is power and as of this moment I hold far more power than any of you."

This time not only is Shigaraki insulted on behalf of his master but so is Kurogiri both flaring up in anger at such insults.

Nue too seems angered by Vilgax's callus remarks. "You looking down on us, bastard?!"

Vilgax slowly shakes his head in response. "You are mistaken, I don't mean to offend. I am simply stating the truth of the matter. After all." His soul piercing gaze narrows in on the League. "You humans are always playing catch up."

That remark makes All For One pause for a brief moment.

Shigaraki, however, finally loses the last of his patience. "You god-complexed prick! I'll turn you into ash if you don't take us seriously!"

"Silence, human!" Psyphon barks, in a show to defend his master's honor. "Know your place!"

Shigaraki is just about to charge forward, his hands and fingers raised and poised to kill.

"Can't you see what my Master's trying to accomplish?!"

Shigaraki pauses, thrown off by Psyphon's declaration.

Psyphon scowls, like admitting this leaves a putrid taste in his mouth. "Despite my judgement he finds you all worth his time. And his alliance."

Now that makes the entire League pause for a moment, their intrigue is definitely hooked.

With things having settled down Vilgax takes back command of the situation. "Psyphon."

Psyphon is quick to address him. "Yes, my Master?"

"Please see to our guests. I wish to speak to All For One alone."

Psyphon respectfully bows, accepting his orders without question.

"Ha!" Nue scoffs with a laugh. "Like we'd allow that?" he can smell a trap from miles away; he'll separate them from Sensei and boom they're without a leader…but then again it could play out the other way around.

"Go, all of you. Leave us."

Shigaraki, Kurogiri, and Nue all start, surprised by All For One's compliance.

Shigaraki especially seems the most distraught. "S-Sensei?"

"Go Tomura Shigaraki." All For One orders as composed and professionally as usual. "I do believe Vilgax and I have much to discuss."

The League are still hesitant even as Psyphon strolls past and the hexagonal panels surrounding the wall open up creating a doorway for them to exit. Rojo and SevenSeven leave without a word and after some much hesitation Kurogiri leads Nue through the portal as well. Shigaraki hangs back, glancing from his Sensei and to Vilgax and back again. And after another moment he comes to realize that he won't talk his master out of this and so he takes his leave, the portal shutting close behind him leaving the devil and titan in a pit of darkness and a looming red glow.

"Now what would you like to discuss?"

After a moment of silence Vilgax responds with. "Everything."


'I really messed things up didn't I?' Ochaco grips her plastic bag tighter, pressing Thirteen's arm against herself as she tries to comfort herself.

Thankfully she can stew in her failure in silence since the train car is mostly void of people even though it just pulled out of Hosu City's station.

Ochaco frowns down at Thirteen's twitching served hand. Almost sensing as if it's being watched from inside the bag, the hand jerks up and gives Ochaco a big thumbs up.

Ochaco sheepishly smiles down at the hand. "Thanks but I don't really feel that much better."

The hand jerks and twitches before lying still once again.

'Still creepy.'

As the train falls back into silence and thus Ochaco falls back into her state of failure. As the train speeds away from Hosu City she can't help but think of all the heroes and sidekicks she saw scouring and patrolling the city; all of them on the search for an axe-wielding maniac.

'But they won't find him.' She thinks in a mix of relief and sadness. 'He's probably on his way to Deku by now.' Hopefully both he and his dad will have better luck than her when it comes to fighting off Sunder. 'I tried and failed, and now I lost my chance.' She reaches into her pocket and pulls out her phone. 'I better call Deku and let him know about this guy.' Before Sunder gets the jump on him.

As Ochaco opens up her phone a new alert pops onto her screen the from the Hero Alert System!

Ochaco frowns, eyeing the alert, her gut screaming at her to check it. And so with a press of her finger she opens the alert and she audibly gasps when she reads the alert.

According to the alert an axe-wielding maniac riding a high tech glider was spotted causing a ruckus over at Geonosis City just a short while ago. The suspect got into a confrontation with some sidekicks from the Gang Orca agency but he escaped after a short battle with the sidekicks and heroes.

'No doubt it was Sunder, but what was he doing there?' Ochaco has to wonder before pondering over the battle's location. 'Geonosis City? Why does that place sound so familiar? From a move maybe? No. A cartoon show? No. So then where?'

She tries to remember she really does so much so her head actually starts to hurt as she files through her memories. And then just when she's about ready to give it up she remembers. "Deku's internship!"

That's right Geonosis City was where Deku spent part of his internship at. He fought some bug villain there and he made the news for it.

"Oh, my gosh!" Ochaco gasps as she has an epiphany.

First Plumber Base, then Hosu City, and now Geonosis City! It all makes sense now! That's explains Sunder's activity, he's searching for Deku. But he's searching for Deku by going to the places he would have been covered by the news!

'But why?'

Actually Ochaco can figure out why he's doing this. It's because Sunder has no real way of tracking Deku! The signal jammer must be effecting his radar systems too. So without that he's been relying on local news media to help him search! Why search for him where he's not when you can search for him where he's been? That's Sunder's logic here! Not only that but his searches have been in a particular order.

'So following that logic he'll begin going to-HUH!?" Ochaco gasps as it finally all comes together. "I know where he's going to be!"

From inside the plastic bag, Thirteen's hand jerks and gives her a big thumbs up.

"Still creepy, but thanks!" Ochaco grins leaping to her feet while also grabbing her phone. "I can still fix this, but I need to talk to Principal Nezu first." Something tells her she's gonna need some assistance here.


Sunder scans the area as his glider carries him down into U.A.'s Sports Festival Stadium. "No spectators? No defenders? No warriors?"

For shame, Sunder was led to believe that this was the training ground for inspiring warriors who train by besting their fellow defenders. And as a side bonus they provide entertainment for their planet's population.

But this was not what he was expecting: an empty arena void of life and not a soul for miles. Not much if anything has changed since the Sports Festival with only the cement battle arena missing but the grassy field and track still remain.

But that means nothing other than that there is no Izuku Midoriya nor an Omnitrix to be had.

"Raaaggghhh!" Sunder roars in frustration. "IZUKU MIDORIYA! Are you such a coward you'd hide and allow others to fight your battles?! I expected more but it appears I overestimated this planet's defenders."

A familiar cheery voice echoes through the arena's speaker systems. "Don't count us out yet, pal!"

Sunder spins around scanning the empty stands until he spots Ochaco Uraraka standing amongst the stands with a smug smirk. "You again?!"

From the stands, Ochaco has a microphone in hand as she defiantly grins up at the axe wielding maniac. "Yeah, it's me again." She responds through the microphone.

Sunder frowns in annoyance. "You're a persistent one… or should I say annoying?" He grips his axe, aiming it towards her. "You've been a thorn in my side for an entire rotation. Clearly you can't comprehend that I am out of your league youngling." He swings his axe up onto his shoulder, straightening his back to make himself that much taller and imposing. "Last chance, tell me where I can find the Omnitrix or I will cut you down where you stand."

"I only have one thing to say to you, Sunder." Ochaco's grin falls away becoming a nasty scowl. "Just shut up and fight."

Sunder frowns before shaking his head. "Hm. No, I don't think so." His glider slowly begins to rise into the air, preparing to fly off to its next destination. "Unlike you I have a far greater target than you."

"That's too bad." Ochaco tosses the microphone aside before using Zero-Gravity to leap up and land onto the grassy battle arena below. "Then you're really not gonna like this."

On que a translucent electrical forcefield surges around the entire arena before merging into a massive dome entrapping both Ochaco and Sunder inside.

Sunder's glider comes to a stop beside the translucent energy barrier. "What is this?!"

"Oh, come on I thought you watched the Sports Festival?" Ochaco teases from below. "Or did you skim over it?" She kicks a pebble over to the forcefield only for it to be electrified before ricocheting back towards the arena. "This is a state of the art forcefield courtesy of Princi-eh, Majister Nezu!"

Thank goodness she called him otherwise she'd never be able to program the forcefield to activate when she needed it to. And now she can fight Sunder on her terms and even if she fails he won't be able to escape this trap.

"You think this can hold me?" Sunder scoffs, tapping the blade of his axe against the barrier; the red dimensional energy sparks and resists against the forcefield before being repealed. "My axe is more than capable of breaking me out of here." It can tear through space and time of course it could break through a forcefield if given a sufficient amount of time.

Ochaco scowls, looks like she'll have to stop him before then. "That might be true, but can you fight me off while freeing yourself?"

Sunder frowns silently admitting that he might not. "Do you wish to die here, youngling?"

"Not really." Ochaco takes a fighting stance. "But I'm willing to die trying."

Sunder gives her a baffled look. "What?"

Ochaco suddenly becomes sheepish and shy. "Okay that came out wrong, but you know what I mean!"

"No. I understood you perfectly." Sunder raises his axe into the air before swinging it down and aiming towards the girl. "Let's see if you're cut out to face me."

"By the way." Ochaco spites as her body begins to glow. "Can you cut it with the puns?"

She must have touched a nerve, like she insulted his only redeeming quality, before going mad with rage. "Raagghh!" He charges, swooping down to destroy her.

Ochaco's pink aura vanishes as she's forced to dive out of the way.

"Raagghh!" But Sunder is soon on her tail slashing away at her forcing her to dodge and dive out of the way yet again.

This back and forth continues much like it had in their earlier bought with Ochaco on the defensive as Sunder thrashes about the arena.

"We've had this dance before!" Sunder roars, tossing out a barrage of grenades.

One For All courses through the girl, allowing her to speed away as explosion after explosion echoes behind her.

"Did you not even bother with a plan?!" Sunder roars cutting off her path with a wing of his axe, she again rolls away. "No strategy!" He swings again. "No brains!"

Ochaco rolls to the side before finding herself in the middle of the arena with Sunder looming over her from above.

"You have heart, youngling." His axe glows blood red under the hot sun. " I'll gladly cut it out of you."

Ochaco shoves herself to her feet, wiping her mouth free of debris and spit. "You're more than welcomed to try."

And with a clear invitation to strike Sunder charges forth. "Raagghh!"

Ochaco however doesn't make a move to dodge instead she holds her ground with her fists raised at the ready.

In a blink of an eye Sunder is upon the poor girl and is about to strike her down in one fell swoop

However, a wall of flames shoots some from seemingly the ground itself; blasting into the warrior and forcing him back.

"Gaahh?!" Sunder shrieks, as his flesh is burned and seared, his glider spinning backwards as a geyser of flames blocks his path. "What is this?!"

"You said I didn't come here with a plan." The flames vanish, revealing a smug Ochaco on the other side. "Well you were wrong"

She may have forgotten to mention that thanks to Principal Nezu's help she was also able to set up the pyrotechnics, used during the Sports Festival, as traps mainly by having them blast flames on a set timer.

Sunder must have realized this as well, scanning the ground but with such small pipes acting as the source of the flames he cannot make out where the traps are. "Clever girl. Raagghh!"

But flames will not deter him as he swoops in for another attack.

Ochaco, feeling much more confident, expertly side steps, ducks, and dodges each incoming attack with Sunder's blade just barely grazing her aura. All the while she moves backwards across the grassy arena, leading him on.

"Hold still and die!" Before he can follow through another geyser of flames burn away at his flesh. "Gahh!" Sunder reals back, blinded by the searing flames.

With his defenses down Ochaco takes her shot, swinging her fist right into Sunder's skull.

"Graagh!" Sunder yelps as her fist smashes into the side of his face.

"Ha!" Ochaco grins, jumping back for when he inevitably takes another swing at her. "You like that?!"

He doesn't. "I will carve that smug smile off your face, youngling!"

With his rage unleashed his movements become sloppy and easier to read allowing Ochaco way more opportunities to attack.

Sunder takes a big swing at her head, but Ochaco ducks down, allowing the blade to swish past her head before she leaps up and delivers one hell of an uppercut to Sunder's chin.

POW!

Sunder's head is thrown back, his glider spinning around before he composes himself and charges forward again.

Wanting to keep her distance Ochaco's fist glows bright before she fires off Ryou Sphere after Ryou Sphere at her opponent.

Sunder manages to mostly evade the spheres but as they crash into the ground they explode and the blasts nearly knock him off his glider.

With Sunder moving in fast Ochaco moves to meet him, raising her glowing fist back before shouting at the top of her lungs. "Venus Smash!"

Upon shouting her finishing move, Sunder reacts quickly, thrusting his hands forward to generate his own forcefield.

And Ochaco's supercharged fist collides into said forcefield, the power of One For All sparks and bounces off the shield throwing her backwards as well as shaving Sunder back a bit as well.

Ochaco is thrown to the ground, rolling across the arena before coming to a stop.

Sunder smirks as he purses after her. "You're not the only one that likes to play with forcefields!"

From the ground, Ochaco's eyes widen as she locks onto Sunder's raised axe. Acting out of reflex, One For All surges through her leg as she kicks her leg up, generating a powerful whirlwind. The gust of wind is strong enough to throw Sunder right off of his glider and toss him right into the dome-shaped forcefield.

"Aaaaggghhh!" Sunder shrieks as electricity courses through his body before he collapses to his knees.

Ochaco smirks, rising to her feet. "No, but mine's bigger."

Sunder hisses, flaring with rage, as he hops back onto his glider before charging forth.

Ochaco fires a barrage of Ryou Spheres but Sunder swerves and glides past them all. Ochaco panics as he zooms closer throwing one after the other but Sunder is ready evading each one and even using his axe to slash his way through the last of Ochaco's attack.

And with that final push he breaks through the barrage, swinging his fist back before delivering one hell of a gut punch into Ochaco's midsection.

"Gaahh!" Ochaco gasps in pain from having the wind knocked out of her as she's tossed backwards.

"I grow tired of this." Sunder hisses with his axe in hand. "I may have come here for the Omnitrix but I will treasure your head on my wall for decades to come!"

Holding her aching gut, Ochaco rolls away where she knows there is a hidden pyrotechnics machine.

But the moment she stops moving Sunder smashes his axe into the ground, precisely slicing through the top of the hidden trap. Sparks and bits of flames spew front the ground confirming his mark.

"No more tricks. No more toying around. And no Izuku Midoriya." Sunder pries back his axe towering over the panting weakling. "I thought perhaps he'd appear to save his comrade but it appears I was wrong. He's a far greater coward than I would have thought."

Ochaco's fists clench at her sides, taking offense on Deku's behalf. "Well he's busy right now, but someone else was kind enough to lend me a hand."

Sunder frowns, wondering what she could possibly mean; after all there isn't another soul within the stadium and even if there was they couldn't interfere thanks to the forcefield.

But his assumptions would be wrong as it feels like a tornado has suddenly appeared it's high winds pulling Sunder towards it.

Sunder grips onto his glider and axe as he struggles against this sudden powerful pull as bits of grass, dirt, and debris fly past him and into a void.

Sunder peers back through his whipping hair and the flying debris and there tucked within the tall unkempt grass lies the severed hand of the defender known as Thirteen!

Thirteen's gloved hand is pointed upward with Blackhole pulling Sunder and the surrounding area in.

With Sunder too focused on escaping the gravitational pull, Ochaco takes the time to charge up: One For All courses through her illuminating her entire body.

"VENUS SMASH!" Ochaco races forward her entire body aglow as she throws her fist forward.

Sunder gasps, but he's too late to react. All he can do is throw his axe in the way using the blunt side of it to shield himself.

Ochaco's glowing fist collides with the axe the force alone propels both her and Sunder out from Blackhole's pull. But Ochaco does not relent as she drives her fist forward, before her fist smashes through the axe's hilt shattering the long metal hilt to pieces!

"NO!" Sunder screams as his axe crumbles away with only his red-glowing blade remaining intact. "What have you done?!"

Ochaco's arms wrap around his neck from behind, holding him in a choke hold. "I'm finishing this."

And with that Ochaco presses her fingers against his arm, making him weightless. With him weighing less than a feather a One For All charged Ochaco throws herself and him back and off his glider.

"Raaaggghhh!" Ochaco screams as One For All boosts her strength.

She spins and swings Sunder up and over her head before slamming into, not onto, into the ground!

"Guh…" Sunder groans, his head pounding and his body aching in pain as Ochaco releases her Zero-Gravity over him. He growls through the pain as he tries to prop himself up. "This…won't stop…me."

Sunder scowls up to the sky and his eyes widen as he spots Ochaco floating from high above.

"Release!" And she plummets moving faster and faster in a freefall as her entire body glows with One For All. "FALLING STAR SMASH!" Ochaco thrusts her legs down just as her feet crash into Sunder's body.

And BOOM. Sunder's smashed into the ground, a massive crater forming around him as he screams out in pain and all before his vision goes dark.

Ochaco stands above him breathing heavily as bits of grass and dirt fall from all around her. She glares down at the maniac ready incase he jumps back up to his feet.

But he doesn't; he remains still, unmoving, and unconscious.

She had finally done it.

Ochaco lets out the breath she didn't know she was holding, stumbling back before collapsing onto her butt as she leans against the inside of the crater. "I did it. Thank goodness." She leans her head back finally allowing herself to rest, her eyes trailing up and past the enclosed forcefield and towards the sky above where she can almost make out the moon even during the daytime. "What a day…"

She sighs as the Razor Crest soars overhead, above the forcefield. "But things are finally looking up." She breathes with a small grin.


"I don't like this." Shigaraki grumbles, leaning against the cold metallic wall.

A frowning Nue stands nearby. "For once I actually agree with you."

(Author's Note: ARTWORK by "Voidv25" on Deviant art called "Henzu(Monster)." This is the canon version of Henzu/Nue for this story.)

Kurogiri stands before them both making sure to keep them in line. "Calm yourselves, fretting will not help us."

It certainly won't and it certainly hasn't. They're stuck outside the dome and in Vilgax's, assumably, main base for what feels like hours. They've been hunkering down waiting patiently within a narrow metallic hallway with strange and foregin pipes, lights, and bolt heads running along the metal walls. The entire hallway is empty and silent with only the hum of heavy machinery and gears echoing in the distance.

"What the hell does that bastard want with us?" Shigaraki growls glaring at the sealed doorway lined with hexagonal panels. "Do any of you care to share?" He glares over towards their captors.

Rojo and SevenSeven stand by the sealed doorway, guarding it from the villains. Psyphon was there with them not too long ago but he slinked away something about receiving an activity alert or something.

A frowning Rojo folds her arms as she leans against the wall. "Believe me, I'm still making sense of all this. Best to keep an open mind, alright?"

Shigaraki turns his attention towards SevenSeven and hisses. "And you? What's your excuse?"

SevenSeven responds back with a shrug. "Llwe i nktih Xgialv nstaw ot eatm pu ihtw uoy yusg. Hyw i not'd nike, tbu eyh ts'i wath het thorua antws."

The villains all blink stupidly at the purple armored being.

Nue scratches his head in confusion. "What the fuck did he just say?"

Shigaraki's just as lost here. "What is he speaking? Portuguese?"

Rojo shrugs, not giving a damn. "Yeah, something like that."

SevenSeven however seems offended. "Puueesgtor?! Nhga no own i nia't mrfo Sialrb ro eevtarwh, M'i a lulf bowln aeiln eerh! Meco no ppeelo, opne yrou eeys!"

Nue huffs, not understanding a word he said. "Yeah, that's gonna get annoying real quick."

As Nue tries to figure out what the hell SevenSeven is saying, Shigaraki leans back against the cold wall falling silent as his mind begins to wonder. Specifically he begins to consider their host, Vilgax. What is he? What does he want? What is he up to?

Shigaraki can't come up with an answer to any of these questions…and that really upsets him. It's like this Vilgax guy is toying with them, taunting them about his own knowledge and power. It's so infuriating, he's no better than heroes that claim to be above everyone else. Perhaps he should just erase his existence here and now before he becomes a bigger pain in the ass then he already is?

Before he can even consider the possibility of accomplishing this the panels glow before parting away, opening back up the doorway.

Shigaraki shoves himself off the wall. "What's happening?!"

"The door opened, dumbass." Rojo responds with a roll of her eyes before entering back into the dark dome. "Come on, don't want to keep them waiting."

SevenSeven follows suit and after a moment of hesitation the League follows along as well.

They step inside the dark dome and gasp when they find the sorry state the facility's now in.

Blast and burn marks line the walls and floor, there are small craters smashed into the walls as well, and a layer of rubble and debris carpet the floor.

But despite the mess both the devil and the titan have remained totally unscathed. Neither of them have a scratch on them, not a stain on their suits and armor, nor have either of them broken a sweat. Instead they just stand before each other both looking smug and satisfied with whatever's transpired during their supposed negotiations.

Nue gaps at the surrounding mess. "What the hell happened in here?!"

"We were simply negotiating." All For One responds with a sly smile. "But I will admit our discussion was rather…hard pressed."

"Sensei!" Shigaraki rushes to his master's side.

As does Kurogiri. "Master, are you alright?"

"No need to fret over me Kurogiri. I'm doing very well in fact, thank you." All For One's grin widens from underneath his dark skull-like mask. "Very well indeed."

That doesn't give Shigaraki any comfort who is quick to give Vilgax an accusing glare. "You! What are you up to?!"

Vilgax glares back, annoyed.

But he has no need to step in as All For One personally sees to his own subordinate. "Tomura Shigaraki please, that's no way to speak to our newest benefactor."

Shigaraki's visibly stunned. "What?! Benefactor…?!"

Vilgax sneers from underneath his respirator. "Indeed child, your master and I have struck up a most profitable bargain."

Nue frowns, not sure how he feels about this. "What kind of bargain?"

Instead of disregarding the request Vilgax actually cooperates. "Come and I will show you." Vilgax marches past the League and back towards the unsealed portal leading into the hallway. "Rojo. SevenSeven follow along as well."

"Sure thing…boss." Rojo gives a sarcastic salute before begrudgingly following along.

SevenSeven excitedly rubs his hands together as he follows too. "Ho, tish si nnoag eb dogo."

Kurogiri turns to his own master for a plan. "Master should we?"

"Yes, Kurogiri. You all have the right to be wary but I do believe it will be to our own benefit as to humor our dear host."

Nue scowls as he follows along with Kurogiri. "You better be right about this."

And they both leave the dome, marching behind Rojo and SevenSeven.

"Sensei?"

All For One turns to his apprentice.

"I don't like this." Shigaraki admits with a nasty scowl. "Why the hell should we trust this guy? He gives me the creeps."

"Your trepidation is well founded more so than you know. But believe me when I say," A conniving smile stretches across All For One's mutilated face. "that this alliance will open up so much more for us."

Shigaraki has no idea what that's supposed to mean but he'll trust his master. But that doesn't mean he trusts Vilgax, if he does anything suspicious he'll end him then and there.

And so they both follow behind, catching up to the rest of the group down the metallic hallway.

The hallway stretches, turns and interests across the entire facility, making the place a giant confusing maze. All the while the League, especially Shigaraki and Nue, can't help but theorize where they are: are they in a fortress? A bunker? They don't know and the longer they don't have an answer the more on edge they become.

"Yo! Cthulhu!" Nue shouts from the rear.

Vilgax doesn't stop marching down the hall as he peers back at the chimera.

"What is this place? Are we in a fortress or something?"

Vilgax turns away before answering. "This is my command ship."

Shigaraki starts. "A ship?"

Then it must be one hell of a ship, maybe a destroyer, or maybe it's a submarine. But if it was either, how come it doesn't feel like they're rocking along with the waves? The ship is still, so still that Shigaraki could have sworn they were still on land.

And so they continue along until they spot something very alarming at the end of a passing hallway. At the end of the hallway lies a giant hexagonal gate lined by heavy set locks and a single lever at it's side.

Shigaraki frowns at the gate. "What is that?"

Vilgax nonchalantly responds with. "It's an airlock."

Kurogiri starts, finding that very very odd. "Pardon me, but what sort of ship has an airlock?"

The rest of the League, minus All For One, pauses realizing how out of place an airlock would be on a sea vessel.

Vilgax however only adds onto their confusion. "One that's beyond your human advancements."

Shigaraki's patience wears thin, taking a personal offense at that cold insult. How dare this bastard look down on them. And that fucking god complex of his is so god damn annoying!

Shigaraki roars, losing the last of his patience, as he rushes past the group and to the front. "Enough of this!"

Kurogiri gasps, stepping forward to stop him. "Shigara-"

All For One cuts him off with a raise of his arm.

Kurogiri instantly understands, standing down, leaving Shigaraki on his own.

"It's time for some answers!" Shigaraki roars.

Vilgax slowly turns around just before turning the last corner.

"Where are we?! Why did you bring us?!"

Shigaraki defiantly glares up at the titan who remains calm and poised like a giant before a little ant.

"I will provide the answers you desire." answers calmly Vilgax, arms folded behind his back, before turning the corner.

"When?!" Shigaraki screams, rushing after him.

He turns the corner and finds Vilgax standing there before a massive set of metal doors.

"Now."

On que the metal doors shift and unlock before parting away revealing the command center of Vilgax's ship.

The bridge is huge with a large pathway stretching from the doorway to the large windows that are so big they make up an entire wall. The pathway lines the windows as well, allowing for a platform where Vilgax's throne is situated. Below the pathway lie rows and rows of monitors and consoles which are all being managed by strange red-humanoid drones. Other drones that are more crab-like hover in the air patrolling the area. And supervising all of the chaos is Psyphon who's barking orders and overseeing the various goings on.

Vilgax allows his guests to enter and each of them are rather intrigued by what they see.

But what really takes their breaths away are when they make it to the large windows on the other side for they see a massive blue orb lying below them within the massive void known as space.

Shigaraki, Nue, and Kurogiri are all stunned, so shocked that they lose their breath.

But All For One remains poised as ever and even though no one can see it he is smiling, grinning in fact, grinning down at the beautiful blue orb that seems so close he could just reach out and grab it through the glass.

Nue's breath hitches. "What. The. Hell?"

Shigaraki shakes his head in disbelief, his entire body trembling out of shock. "Is that-...?"

"Beautiful isn't it?" All For One grins. "To us this planet is our Eden." he then turns back around to face their unworldly host. "But for someone like you I suppose it's just another spec lost in the sea of stars."

Vilgax stomps forward, joining them in their view of Earth. "For someone like me, I'm more than capable of finding the brightest of stars hidden away in the galaxies." And this star's shining light has certainly caught his attention.

Shigaraki manages to snap out of his daze enough to choke out one question. "W-what k-kind of ship is this?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Rojo mocks from the side. "Well then again maybe not." It wasn't so obvious for her after all hell she's still trying to wrap her head around all this. "You're on a freaking spaceship, guy!"

Shigaraki's eyes widen. "A space-...?"

"-...ship?" Nue breathes just as stunned. "You're joking."

Rojo sighs in defeat. "Believe me I wish I was." Seriously do you have any idea how happy she'd be if this was all a fever dream?!

"You're punking us or something?!" Nue growls, refusing to believe this bullshit. "Nobody in the world has the technology to build a real life spaceship, not on this scale!"

Vilgax sneers. "Not on your world, perhaps."

Shigaraki's eyes widen, horrorstruck. "Who...what are you?"

Vilgax smirks, straightening so that his massive form towers over the insect. "I am Vilgax, Conqueror of Worlds, Emperor to Trillions, and Slayer of Champions."

Worlds?! Trillions?! A spaceship?!

"You're a…y-you're a-"

"Yes, that's right boy." The titan leans in close, causing Shigaraki to stumble back. "I am what you call an ALIEN."

Kurogiri can no longer remain stoic and calm, instead he too losses himself to this shock. "Impossible! You dare insult our intelligence?!"

"Kurogiri."

The misty villain instantly settles down upon his master's call. "Master?"

"Our friend speaks the truth." There is no hint of hesitation or doubt in All For One's voice.

Shigaraki's finds his calm demeanor even more disturbing. "Sensei?"

"I found out myself during our discussion." He explains. "And at first I had my doubts but look at the evidence," He gestures to the ship, the drones, and even to Vilgax. "it's all around us: this ship, these pawns, the technology, and even our great host. None of this is of this world."

"No way…" Nue shakes his head, refusing to believe this. "I don't believe it!"

"And what about you?!" Shigaraki shouts, spinning round towards Psyphon, Rojo, and SevenSeven. "Are you aliens too?!"

Psyphon scowls back in disgust. "Of course I am. And it so disgusts me that I am even conversing with an ape like yourself."

Moving on, Shigaraki looks to Rojo.

Rojo is quick to shake her head. "Not me I'm in the same boat as you all, just found out about this like a day or two ago, not really sure it's hard to tell time when there really isn't a sunset. Ya know?"

And finally there's SevenSeven."M'i na ielna, thhogu."

Shigaraki may not understand him but he doesn't have to as it really starts to sink in. This guy, SevenSeven, is an alien! Is that true?! Is it? It can't be! But if it is then that means…so was that other guy! That other guy in purple armor, the one that messed up their attack at Hosu might have been an alien too?! What about that bastard at the U.S.J. the one that fought Nomu? Or what about heroes, are some of them aliens?! How many?1 How many times have fucking aliens messed up his plan?! But then again are any of them even aliens or are they just humans with mutations?!

"Raaaggghhh!" Shigaraki screams, grabbing at his head. "I-...I don't…it doesn't…!"

"Make sense?" Psyphon finishes with a scowl. "Perhaps it wouldn't for such a primitive race." Psyphon turns away, peering back through the large windows and into the void of space. "Understand this, you humans are not the only beings inhabiting the stars. There are countless worlds, with countless beings all across the cosmos." Psyphon spins around, raising his arm up in praise of his master. "And standing before you all is the one that shall-"

"Psyphon." Vilgax silences him with a hush. "Stand down."

Psyphon, startled, hushes, lowering his arm.

Shigaraki still can't wrap his head around it, it's just a large pill to swallow, but…looking at it all; he sees evidence around them. The impossibility of it all should tell him this is a lie but…it's not. Vilgax is an alien.

And after all this there's only one last question on his mind. "What the hell do you want with us?"

"I want," Vilgax leans in closer, his piercing gaze burning into Shigaraki's skull. "your cooperation."

The confusion must be palpable because the league instantly falls silent.

Vilgax backs away from Shigaraki. "I believe I need to provide some context." he turns and signals a pair of drones stationed at nearby monitors.

The drones quickly respond, typing away into their consoles before holographic screens are randomly projected into the air, surrounding Vilgax and the League of Villains. A variety of videos, photos, articles, and messages dance across the screens. There's videos of aliens loitering and buying goods at Mr. Baumann's store, Mr. Baumann even appears in some of the videos. On other screens there are photos of other aliens, on first glance one might assume they're humans with mutations working normal office jobs but they are in fact aliens. There are videos of camouflage ships entering Earth's orbit. And photographs of aliens encountering heroes, villains, and everyday people all without anyone realizing their true nature.

"Aliens have been coming to this planet for centuries." Vilgax explains as the screens circle around them. "And as the phenomenon of Quirks spread, so too do these visitations. With so many humans undergoing such drastic evolutionary changes aliens such as myself and others can live amongst you without notice. Japan in fact has a rather small population of aliens living there but like most aliens found here they are nothing but cowardly refugees and pilgrims. Trying to hide and enjoy a delusional peaceful existence."

Shigaraki's still skeptical. "But then how come we've never heard any of this before? Why doesn't the whole freaking planet know?! Are the governments covering this up?! Have our minds been wiped?!" He glares up at the squid faced alien, his rage and frustration threatening to spill out. "Tell me."

"All fair questions. And forgive me if this answer seems too…contrived but the reason the aliens can interact and live amongst you without notice is because of one organization."

The League all share intrigued yet confused looks of concern. All of them wondering the same thing: What kind of organization?

Vilgax speaks vilely, his voice laced with disgust and hatred. "This organization has its fingers entwined throughout the cosmos so much so that they equal my own conquests." Often proving to be large thorns at his side so much so they forced him into a ceasefire. "They've declared themselves as keepers of peace, peacekeepers if you will. Under the command of their superiors these Red Spots withhold their own self-righteous laws and policies even if that means sacrificing and ignoring another world's own needs and turmoil." No matter how much the inhabitants may be begging for their assistance. "Much like the foul heroes of your own planet."

Shigaraki's eyes narrow like he's finally been snapped out of his shocked state. His anger rising but not towards Vilgax but rather this organization.

"So…they're like the galaxy's version of…space heroes?" He growls lowly.

Vilgax nods. "Precisely." He observes the screens watching as videos and photos pass with images of this so-called organization at work. "And they are here as well. Operating all across the planet, including Japan."

Shigaraki's glare narrows. "And who are these…space heroes?"

"These foul self-proclaimed peacekeepers are known across the known galaxies as," Vilgax leans close, gathering the League's full attention before speaking with vile hatred. "The Plumbers."

Nue's instantly snapped out of the tension. "Are you fucking with us…?"

Vilgax fails to see the humor in this. "You think I am playing boy? Because I can assure you that I'm not."

Looking into Vilgax's gaze and hearing the certainty in his voice they know for a fact that he is dead serious.

Vilgax continues, observing the holographic screens. "The Plumbers operate just out of sight: they alter documents, video footage, and manipulate the alien populous in secret keeping them organized and orderly so that they don't interfere with the goings on of your planet."

"They sound rather devious," All For One admits with a sly smirk. "perhaps I should pay them a visit."

"In truth, perhaps you should." It would certainly mean one less problem for Vilgax one way or another. ""Now the Japanese Plumber branch is small, far smaller than most Plumber Operations. Actually you can thank your current hero society for that since their presence often deters wannabe alien criminals from acting." And thus many of the Plumbers have been transferred and relocated to branches that are deemed "worthy" or "important" by the Magistrata. "Even so what they lack in numbers they do not lack in efficiency."

"How many?" Kurogiri ponders aloud. "How many of these…eh-Plumbers, operate in Japan?"

Psyphon is the one to answer. "From the intelligence we've gathered the Japanese branch only operates through three official operatives with the assistance of two, well now three, apprentices. Plus or minus a few droids."

"Ha…hahaha!" Shigaraki begins to crack up, losing himself to the ridiculousness of it all. "You can't beat five humans?! Hahahaha! And here I was starting to think you were a threat."

Vilgax doesn't fall to Shigaraki's taunts, remaining collected and cold, but his irritation is burned into his voice. "You laugh but these Plumbers are more effective than most legions of Red Spots."

Kurogiri's intrigued. "Whoever's running their operation must be quite skilled."

"My friend, who are these…Plumbers? Tell us about Japan's…space heroes."

Vilgax turns to his minion. "Psyphon."

Psyphon bows. "Yes, master."

He scurries away to a nearby monitor where he proceeds to erase the holographic screens that are encircling the League and his master.

Vilgax proceeds to explain just who these space heroes are. "These are Japan's resident Plumbers: staring with the hero known as Thirteen."

And instead of a screen, Psyphon uses the monitor to project a large life sized hologram of Thirteen. The life-sized image floats between Vilgax and the League poised and frozen in time with their hands raised just before they would be activating Blackhole.

Kurogiri's eyes widen in surprise. "Thirteen?"

Vilgax nods, gesturing towards the hologram. "Most of Earth's Plumbers operate under the facade of being pro heroes."

Kurogiri frowns, his mind swirling with this new revelation. "The U.S.J…"

Shigaraki frowns, his ears perking at the mention of the U.S.J. "Kurogiri?"

"During the U.S.J. attack Thirteen performed far more admirably than expected." They managed to fight not just him off but the mutated serpents as well with amazing acrobatics and combat know-how. "They fought with much more experience than anticipated."

Vilgax confirms his suspicions. "Thirteen is labeled as a rescue hero but even that is a cover allowing them to operate on the side as an enforcer for the Plumbers."

Another hologram appears beside Thirteen's but this one is not at all familiar to the group.

Vilgax glares at this hologram with silent vengeance, his muscles bulging and flexing as if wanting to take a swipe at the hologram's head. "Then there's this accursed and infuriating Firebreather."

The League examined this supposed Firebreather. It's of a middle aged man wearing a strange red armored suit and a strange dragon-mouth like respirator. Flames pour out from the respirator circling the man's head as he's frozen in a leaping stance like he just jumped down from above his opponent.

Nue eyes the man's features, locking onto the strangely familiar green eyes. "Never heard of this guy."

Vilgax continues to glare at the hologram like it's personally offended him. "He is the most efficient of the Plumbers, not just on Earth but in the entire organization. He is a veteran with decades of experience and knowledge." Not to mention. "He's been a thorn at my side for years."

"Is he now?" All For One's intrigued, eyeing this Firebreather curiously. "Sounds like you two have quite the history."

"We've crossed paths on more than one occasion." Vilgax admits with disdain.

In any case the alien commander moves on with his explanation. "They often patrol and monitor the alien population in person. And even deploying discipline and enforcement when necessary."

Kurogiri doesn't like the sound of that. "And who deploys them?"

Vilgax signals for Psyphon to bring about the next hologram. "The creature known as Majister Nezu commands Japan's Plumber branch."

The next hologram pops into view: it's of a mouse/bear/dog creature sitting upon a chair like a king upon his throne.

"Principal Nezu?!" Nue roars in outrage. "The fucking principal of U.A. is a Plumber?!"

"Not just any Plumber," Vilgax corrects. "he's their superior officer."

All For One eyes the image of Nezu with not disdain but admiration. "Clever. Nezu you are far craftier than I had already perceived of you."

Shigaraki doesn't see it. "How so?"

"As Principal of U.A. Nezu already has access to great amounts of resources, connections, and documentations." A cold almost nervous smile dances across All For One's lips. "It's almost terrifying to think about the results of his tamperings and workings behind the scenes." It's almost enough to send a shiver down his spine. "And as a Principal he's free to recruit as many pawns as he sees fit."

"Not quite." interrupts Psyphon. "Plumbers of Earth take a very secretive approach to recruitment."

Kurogiri frowns. "Why's that?"

Psyphon explains. "They fear the general population's reaction to discovering the existence of extraterrestrials: panic, chaos, and fear would run rampant. So any threat to this planet's peace is met harshly and without mercy."

Nue frowns considering everything they've learned. "So the Plumbers are all about keeping their secrets. But they still have to recruit new members right? And if Nezu's also in charge of the Plumbers…?" And if that's the case, what does that mean about his current recruitment?

Shigaraki picks up on Nue's unspoken question. He peers up at Vilgax, almost too nervous to ask because he knows on some level that he will not like the answer. "Those apprentices you mentioned earlier," He hesitates before asking. "who are they?"

Vilgax answers with a sneer. "You've crossed paths with them both before in fact I think you're all well acquainted with most of them."

Three individual life sized holograms join the ensemble all poised in various action poses before the League of Villains.

The entire League is stunned, even All For One appears just ever so surprised albeit one couldn't tell because of his mask. Not only are they shocked but so is Rojo who instantly locks onto one of the figures.

Nue's at a loss for words. "N-no, no way."

"Them…?" Shigaraki can't look away, his eyes widen and trembling in surprise. "It's-it's them?! Why is it THEM!?"

Vilgax introduces the three recruits. "Mina Ashido." He gestures to the image of a fully costumed Mina as she's stuck in time having leapt forward, swinging her hand as she splashes acid towards an unseen opponent.

"Ochaco Uraraka."

Vilgax gestures towards a hologram of Uravity, the image of her is smiling at the camera just before she presses her fingers together.

And finally Vilgax turns his hateful glare onto the final image. "And Izuku Midoriya."

The final hologram is not of Izuku in his full hero costume but instead of him in his regular civilian clothes along with his signature black and green hoodie. The image stands before the group with a determined scowl, his left fist raised before him while displaying the strange watch attached to his wrist. fully

"They are the newest pawns under the Plumber's employee."

Rojo steps forward, unable to look away from Ochaco's image. "No fucking way."

Kurogiri eyes the woman curiously. "Have you encountered them as well?"

Rojo nods pointing over towards the green-haired hologram. "I kinda figured out that he had something to do with all this. But her…Heh." She breaks into a sinister sneer as she glares up at Ochaco. "Well I got a bone to pick with her too."

She's not the only one who has a bone to pick. Shigaraki too is glaring up at the holograms with disdain. To think that annoying girl, that damn Uraraka, was part of this the whole freaking time. She's always interfering and now he finds out that she's been part of a secret organization that whole time only adds more fuel to the fire. 'She's a cheater. She's had access to alien technology this whole time. She has alien intelligence on her side. She no doubt has access to their weapons too!'

Is that why she keeps besting him? Is that how she's able to interfere with all of his plans?!

And of course this sentiment doesn't just go for her but for that bastard too.

Nue feels similarly as he's been unable to look away from the image of his ex-best friend and partner in crime, Izuku. "Deku… Deku…! DEKU!" Nue roars, his roar alone shaking the entire command center. "YOU BASTARD! How long did you know?! Was this another lie?! Another secret?! RAWR!"

All For One has no outward reaction; instead he examines the three young heroes with intrigue, like a predator stumbling upon a den of defenseless cubs. "They're both so young. So eager. Yet so naive."

Vilgax nods in agreement. "These are Japan's Plumbers and by far some of the most problematic I have encountered over the years." Vilgax turns his gaze back onto Izuku. "Especially this one. This one has caused me nothing but strife since my arrival." He turns to the League and states, "He is also the reason I was forced to seek you out."

The League pauses, finding it odd that a titan such as Vilgax would have some sort of trouble with a kid.

"As of now my forces are…at a stalemate with the Plumbers. My armada and legions cannot make a move on this planet without inviting the Plumber's full wrath." They've been neglectful for now but if he takes too drastic of measures that will surely change. "I've been able to operate here discreetly with the ship's cloaking device and signal jamming. But even I'm pushing my luck and with failure after failure to retrieve my prize it's only a matter of time before the Plumbers catch wind of my operations. That is why I am in need of the League of Villains."

The League stare back wondering how they could possibly provide assistance to an alien.

"You can operate outside the Plumber's jurisdiction. Because of their own laws they are restricted to primarily alien based work. They cannot interfere with your own goings on or at least not as effectively as they would against my own forces."

"I understand, their primary goal is to deal with alien affairs not human ones."

"Exactly."

Well that might explain why Vilgax needs them but there's still something on Nue's mind. "What the hell do you want Deku for?" Despite his trepidation he does manage to break into a gruesome grin. "What you wanna probe him? Dissect him? Skew him and eat his guts like spaghetti?"

"No." Vilgax denies before revealing the truth. "What I want is the weapon he stole from me."

The League is once again stupefied. After all, it was just implied that a kid, a human child, managed to steal an alien weapon from this titan?! How?! And what kind of weapon was it?!

Shigaraki turns and eyes the image of Izuku warily. "Weapon?"

Vilgax eyes the image of Izuku as well, his eyes locking onto the boy's strange watch. "Izuku Midoriya is currently in possession of the universe's most powerful weapon, the Omnitrix."

On que all of the holograms vanish and are replaced by the massive image of the Omnitrix. And much to the League's astonishment, the Omnitrix is in fact Izuku Midoriya's mysterious watch!

"It is one of a kind weapon with the power to grant its wearer the appearance, traits, and abilities of all beings in existence." Vilgax delivers his explanation with such danger and foreboding. "By completely and utterly rearranging and transforming the host's DNA."

Kurogiri gasps. "Inconceivable!"

Vilgax rejects his statement. "It's not. You should be well aware of that after all." He turns towards All For One. "Your precious Nomu's are similar in that regard."

That they are.

The League continues to examine the alien device, their minds blown and baffled that such an insignificant looking watch could hold such a power.

As they're distracted, All For One addresses Vilgax personally. "This Omnitrix, is it the one we discussed from before?"

Vilgax breathes back. "Yes."

All For One nods before examining the watch once again with great interest.

Vilgax doesn't like the look in his eye. "Remember our deal All For One, you will not have my aid in your own endeavors until our promises have been met."

"Of course. I will withhold on my end."

"As will I." He turns away back towards the hologram. "Give me time to prepare and we can finish our business."

All For One nods in understanding after all he needs time to prepare as well.

After examining the watch for some time another realization crosses Shigaraki's mind. "Midoriya's power? The One Man Army Quirk is just…bullshit? A coverup?!"

Vilgax turns back towards the group. "Exactly. Since last year he's been utilizing the Omnitrix's great power just so he can play hero."

The hologram of the Omnitrix divides and as the individual images separate they become holographic versions of the aliens currently stored within the Omnitrix's arsenal. From Four Arms to Grey Matter, from Rath to XLR8, they are all present, circling and floating about in the air as if frozen in time.

"Each of his powers, his transformations are not because of his own doing. Each one of his transformations are nothing but a different alien species." Vilgax seethes at the absurdity of it all. "And his arsenal grows and grows with the passage of time."

"Hang on." Nue pales, he's quivering, as a terrible reality finally dawns on him. "I…I-...I-I absorbed it…"

Shigaraki frowns, almost like he's concerned. "Nue?"

"I…had no idea." Nue stares down at his mutual, mutated claws and hands in an all new light. "Deku he…he turned me…into a monster." He bares his grotesque fangs, his tendrils whipping behind him as does his tail before he cries out in anguish. "RAWR!" He slams his crystalized hand down, smashing a nearby monitor. "DEKU! It was bad enough you turned me into a freak but now…!" He slumps in defeat almost like he's accepted the truth of the matter.

He peers up at Vilgax almost wishing he would give him a bit of good news but he knows, he knows it's futile. "I'm not even human am I?"

Vilgax takes a moment before replying. "No, you're not."

He knew it…

"Or at least not fully."

Nue peers up, unsure of how that could be possible.

Vilgax approaches, passing through the holograms until he's looming over the somehow shorter in compassion chimera. "To be frank I've taken quite the interest in you Henzu Uuichi."

Nue frowns, unsure where Vilgax is going.

"It's fascinating your Quirk, Osmosis, not only allowed you to drain the energy from the Omnitrix but it's true power as well. Through the Omnitrix you managed to absorb the DNA of the aliens, granting you access to their abilities, their strengths," Vilgax briefly scans Nue's monstrous form. "And qualities."

"I can't believe it." Nue gaps taking it all in. He's not human he's…he's 1/12 of a human… No freaking way, but…there's no use in denying it… Not any more.

Nue gasps as another realization comes to mind. "Tha-that means… Deku's still Quirkless…"

The rest of the League hears him, all of them freezing in place, especially Shigaraki. "What…?"

"Deku, he's fucking Quirkless…" Nue growls, his fists clenching tightly. "He's Quirkless. QUIRKLESS!" He roars. "He was born Quirkless! If that watch gives him his power then that means he never gained a Quirk! He's no late bloomer, he's just Quirkless!"

Shigaraki's at a loss, he peers up at the Omnitrix aliens, imaging the boy in their place. His gaze narrows out of spit but he can't but be vexed by this brat. Quirkless? And yet…he aims to be a hero…?

All For One's interest has also been piqued by this revelation. But for now he turns his attention to calming down his underling. "Calm yourself, Nue. We've been given a great opportunity."

Nue reels around and growls. "What?"

"Henzu Uuichi."

Nue turns back towards the one who called him, Vilgax.

Vilgax approaches the young man. "You are no monster, but you are not human either. You are a being that surpasses both. Therefore, I will personally be overseeing your training from here on out."

What did he say? "Hang on!" Nue scowls, not liking where this is going at all. "What makes you think you can boss me around? And training?! What the hell are you implying?!" His crystal arm becomes a blade as he raises his claws. "I don't need no training, not from you anyway!"

Shigaraki watches for a moment, considering, before stepping forward. "He's right Squidface."

Nue's stunned that Handy's taking his side. "Shigaraki…?"

"Nue's a freak and I'd love to rip that smug grin right off his face." He throws a spiteful glance at Nue. "But he's one of ours, he's not a pawn you can just take from us." His fingers clench as his sides. "Not without a fight any way."

Vilgax's eyes narrow in on Shigaraki, silently challenging him to fight.

However, his Sensei is there to break the tension. "Tomura Shigaraki, I have already agreed to these terms."

"WHAT!?" Both Shigaraki, Nue, and even Kurogiri gasp aloud.

"We already discussed this amongst ourselves and we both believe this will be most beneficial to us both. Nue will remain here with Vilgax and be trained in his alien abilities. He will grow stronger and far more capable than even Izuku Midoriya and his aliens."

"But Nue's are tank!" Shigaraki defends. "We can't just give up our tank!"

"Yeah!" shouts Nue. "This ain't right!"

"You are not being taken from us, Nue." clarifies All For One. "Instead, think of this as an exchange program."

Nue frowns. "An exchange program?"

"Yes."

"Ttas'h ym uqe." SevenSeven finally speaks up, stepping forward.

Vilgax presents the bounty hunter to the League. "In exchange and in a show of good faith I will be lending you one of my best assassins, SevenSeven."

"Oy! Tish si nnaog eb ghlit! Tsju eb ruse ot ktea odog aecr fo em, kyao."

Shigaraki, however, does not see how this is at all a show of good faith. "So we're getting one alien…by trading off technically eleven different aliens?" Yeah no way is that an equal trade: that's like trading a shiny Silvally for a regular Naganadel. Yeah it's cool but it's hardly equal. "Sorry, not sorry, but that doesn't sit right with me."

"This arrangement is temporary." clarifies Vilgax. "And besides this wasn't all that we agreed to. Is it All For One?"

"No it is not." Speaking of which. "And when can I expect our next exchange?"

"In due time, I will contact you with more details later." Vilgax then affirms that their business has concluded for the day. "For now, we should retire, we'll conclude our negotiations for the day." He then signals for the holograms to be shut off before he finishes addressing the League. "Take this time to process all of this. And then we shall meet again and discuss our plans further."

"Will you have the materials ready by then?"

"Once they arrive then we can proceed."

"Excellent."

With business concluded for now, Vilgax turns to his most loyal subordinate. "Psyphon."

Psyphon bows before his master. "Yes, master?"

"See our guests out, take one of our spacecrafts and deliver them back to their headquarters."

"But of course. But first."

Vilgax frowns, wondering what Psyphon has to possibly say.

"Master, have a look." Psyphon presents his master with a report via a holographic tablet. "I meant to show you before but I feared interrupting your discussion. In any case, one of our scout drones picked this up."

Psyphon hands over the report.

Vilgax takes a moment to examine the report before handing it back and giving Psyphon added orders. "After dropping them off, be sure to swing by and retrieve the cargo."

"As you wish." Psyphon bows before turning to address the villains. "Humans if you'd please follow me." And he turns and slinks away towards the exit.

Nue takes a step to follow, ready to get the hell out of here but he's stopped.

"You won't be joining us, Nue." All For One reminds him, grabbing him by the shoulder. "Remain here. Learn. And gain experience. And when you return to us then we shall reap the fruits of your labor upon the heroes." For added measure of motivation and compliance, All For One adds in with a cruel sneer. "And your old friend."

Nue's eyes widen, considering the prospect, but either way he tries to play it cool. "Yeah, whatever. This is all still freaking me out."

All For One nods in approval, releasing the monster's shoulder before following after Psyphon. Kurogiri soon joins his master's side as they take their leave.

Shigaraki is the last to leave, hanging back a bit as he passes Nue. "Take care I guess." He leans close, his eyes narrowing critically. "And don't trust that…alien for a second."

Nue frowns before scoffing. "Duh. I wasn't born yesterday."

With his piece said, Shigaraki leaves, he shrugs, deciding to throw one last jab at the guy. "At least I don't have to see your freaky face every goddamn day. And if you were to die out here that's fine, too."

Nue almost breaks out into a smirk. "Shut the fuck up, Handsy."

Shigaraki waves back dismissively. "I'll be seeing you, Nue."

And so he disappears as the massive metal doors seal themselves behind him.

With the League gone Vilgax turn to address his latest project. "Henzu Uuichi."

"It's Nue, got it?"

"Nue, then." Vilgax sneers cruelly from underneath his respirator. "Are you ready to begin?"


"Are you ready to begin?" asks Nezu with a cheerful smile.

"I guess…" Ochaco nods her head nervously as she eyes the strange device nervously. "Is this really gonna work?"

After returning Nezu took the time to build a proper dimensional stabilizer device. Apparently this large, almost cannon looking device should in theory be able to utilize the Plumber Base's own power system to bring Thirteen back with a press of a button. And while Nezu built that One-One went ahead and typed up a cover story for Sunder to make it seem like he's from Earth but to make sure of that they can't actually report to the pro heroes that he's been captured.

And so here they are within the hanger of Plumber Base with Thirteen's severed hand sitting atop a crate as Nezu aims the cannon-like device towards the red-glowing wrist.

One-One sits nearby watching. ^We guarantee a 90% probability of success!^

Ochaco is almost scared to ask. "And the other 10%?"

^I'd be sure to cover your mouth before they implode.^

Ochaco trembles as both of her hands shooting up to cover her mouth.

Both Ochaco and One-One watch Nezu prepare the device.

One-One gestures for Ochaco to back away. ^You might wanna back up.^

Not taking a chance, Ochaco takes cover behind the Razor Crest, only sticking her head out from the side because she still wants to watch.

Nezu takes aim and then he pulls the trigger and a beam of red energy fires out! The beam washes over the hand before focusing solely on the dimensional energy surrounding the sliced wrist the beam surges and surges.

They all watch on nervously but fully fascinated as red energy swirls around the severed limb like a tornado and then just like that the beam dissipates and the red glow washes away revealing a fully non-severed Thirteen.

Nezu frowns, concerned. "Oh, my."

Ochaco gasps, jumping out from her hiding spot as she examines the hero. "Thirteen are-...! You…okay…?"

Thirteen…looks like a mess. Like they've just been dropped into a jungle and had to survive on their own for weeks on end. Thirteen's normal hero suit is completely gone, just gone, the only thing left being the gloved hand they left behind on Earth. They're only wearing their dark zero-suit and athletic shorts that usually accompany their attire. But even then it's filthy stained with mud and blood-looking purple goo. Not only that Thirteen's round face is smeared with the purple blood that she used for war paint. A bandana ripped away from a patch of fur is wrapped around their head. And finally they're holding a metallic junky spear that was clearly cobbled together in a haste.

Nezu smiles, his face not showing any concern, even though he very much would like to know what happened. "Oh, my it seems like you had quite the day."

Thirteen remains stock still, their mind still trying to process that they are in fact back on Earth. "I've seen things…" she says barely above a whisper. "Terrible. Terrible. Things…"

Ochaco's worries are really beginning to grow. "Um, Thirteen…" She scans the splats of purple goo and blood on the hero. "Are you…hurt?"

Thirteen slowly peers down, her eyes widening at the sight of the blood like it's the first time they're actually noticing it. "Oh, that… Don't worry about it, it's not my blood."

Ochaco frowns, worried. "That…that doesn't make me feel any better."

Thirteen then peers around the hanger. "So, where's Sunder?" They grip their junky spear, holding it at the ready. "I'll take care of him."

Ochaco gasps. 'Scary!'

"Hmh!" Nezu smiles on waving away their worries. "No need to concern yourself, Ms. Uraraka proved more than capable of handling our intruder."

"Oh, good." Thirteen finally allows themselves to relax, allowing the spear to flop down in their hands. "Well if you don't mind I need to go lie down…I had one hell of a day."

Nezu nods. "Yes, we can discuss your adventure tomorrow."

"Uh," Thirteen grips their aching head. "I never want to deal with the Null Void again."

Ochaco frowns, curious. 'Null Void?' What's that? It sounds kinda cool yet…ominous.

But she doesn't get to ask about it as an exhausted Thirteen barely manages to walk away. Seriously, they look like they're about to collapse at any second and Ochaco doesn't really want to bother them figuring she can ask about it at another time.

"You performed very impressively today Ms. Uraraka."

Ochaco peers down to find her Principal smiling up at her.

"You expertly deciphered Sunder's movements and the use of the stadium's defenses was very notable." He nods in approval before holding a finger to his cheek. "Pray tell how did you do it?"

Ochaco frowns, wondering how best to say this. "To be honest I wasn't sure I could. It was all kinda just dumb luck." And in a lot of ways it was… "But there was one thing: all day I could only think one thing: What would Deku do?"

It may not have been at the forefront of her plans but it was always there the entire time. In the back of her mind almost like it's just been trying to weave into her thoughts, into how she takes action. Deku's always coming up with brilliant plans and after hanging with him for so long he just rubbed off on her.

Nezu must understand this too as he continues to smile brightly. "It always astounds me just how much people, especially the young, can inspire and influence those around them. You put yourself into your friend's mindset to come up with a creative out of the box plan. Well done."

"Hehe, oh it wasn't much." Ochaco smiles sheepishly. "But thanks."

"Continue to work hard Ms. Uraraka. Take inspiration from others and never forget that your actions may inspire them as well."

Ochaco's smile brightens but then it disappears when she gasps aloud. "Oh, wait, Principal Nezu! Before I forget what happened to Sunder?!"

Nezu peers back up at her.

"What'd you do with him?"

Nezu shows no concern. "I wouldn't concern yourself with Sunder any longer. We won't be seeing him again any time soon since I've already sent him on his way."

Ochaco frowns, uncertain. "On his way?"

"Yes, I've sent one of our self-propelled shuttles to hand deliver him to Incarcecon, one of our larger detention centers."

"Detention Center?"

"A prison!" Nezu laughs. "Yes it is quite the sight, such a colorful place to visit."

Ochaco's not so sure. "Yeah…I bet."

"Come along now Ms. Uraraka. You've had quite the day."

"Yeah, it was a lot, that's for sure."


"Yeah…that was a lot…" Shigaraki grumbles underneath the dim fluorescent lights.

He's still processing the whole day even after Psyphon dropped them off in a real-life U.F.O.!

All For One had the minion drop them off at one of their warehouses hidden away in the mountains rather than the bar.

Why? Well that's what they're currently discussing at the moment.

"Shigaraki, were you listening?"

Shigaraki sighs, dismissing Kurogiri's concern. "Yeah, yeah, I'll keep my mouth shut about all this…alien stuff especially in front of the rest of the NPCs."

That's right he's not allowed to tell any of the newest members about anything they learned today. No mention of aliens, or Vilgax, or spaceships, or that Nue's not even human anymore. They'll keep this secret until it's either unnecessary or it's required.

"Good, then you understand." Kurogiri affirms before turning back towards their master,

All For One stands before them both and SevenSeven, taking the time to explain the importance of being discreet.

"It's best we keep this secret close to the chest for now. I fear that if this information is leaked too soon it might just interfere in our own plans as well." He would hate to have one of the newest recruits spilling this world shattering news too early after all. "We'll play this as professionally and safe as possible."

Kurogiri nods. "Understood master."

SevenSeven confirms that he understood with a nod. "Tgo ti. Li'l usjt eepk ihtk het Ziiaalrnb yeerrmacn kacbsryot hetn."

Although they don't understand a word he said they do understand the meaning…maybe.

"Welcome to the League of Villains, SevenSeven, I can't wait to see what you bring to the table."

"I nat'c itwa eehtir utb ttah llyaer utsj dpeensd no het rthoua. Ro het derears fi hyet avhe a ogod aeid."

"Yes, well." All For One turns to his loyal subordinates to see if they have questions for him.

Kurogiri has none, instead he too turns to Shigaraki. "Tomura Shigaraki?"

Shigaraki sighs. "Yeah I got it. I got it. I won't spill the beans."

"Precisely." All For One places a hand atop Shigaraki's shoulder. "Not until we can be certain of their loyalty and importance."

"Right…"

And that concludes their discussion and so Kurogiri sees to SevenSeven, opening a warp gate to take the alien bounty hunter away.

All For One waits back because of his intuition, he turns to address his young ward. "Is there something you'd like to say?"

There is. "Sensei," Shigaraki chokes, grumbling under his breath. "I don't like this."

All For One remains silent, allowing for Shigaraki to continue with his rant.

"This Vilgax guy, can we really trust him? Can we take him by his word?"

All For One doesn't answer and so Shigaraki continues.

"We have nothing to go off of here. Vilgax could have been telling us nothing but lies. He could be deceiving us, playing us for fools." And he really doesn't like that; not at all. "I mean he's an alien and I can only think of one thing a guy like him is after: total domination."

It may sound cliche to say, like something from a movie, but he can tell. Vilgax carries himself the same way as Sensei, like he's above everyone else. That he knows, understands more, and thus they are beyond everyone else…

"I'm well aware."

Shigaraki's astounded. "Then why are we working with him?! Why didn't we take our shot and end him, and take his resources for ourselves?!"

All For One turns away peering up at the broken windows in the ceiling, looking past and towards the glittering stars above. "I've always seen myself as beyond the normal human understanding. And that my ambitions have always been a worthy one." He grins up at the stars, the warehouse becoming colder and darker as he loses himself to his desires and greed. "But now I know, now I can say for certain that there's so much more for us."

"Sensei?"

"We may have always operated in the dark but we always held the knowledge and thus more power than our enemies. But as of this moment, for the first time in centuries, there is someone a…rival if you will that possesses more knowledge and more power than I." It's almost chilling to think about but also…exciting as well like finding a worthy foe who can give you a proper challenge. "It's not smart to make enemies with such a being, at least not at the start."

Shigaraki…understands although he doesn't one hundred percent agree with it. He'd still much rather be done with Vilgax and alien stuff but…it's here to stay. They are real and he's gotta accept that they are powerful and a force to be reckoned with.

However, so is his Sensei and so he can only wonder what the results would be when a devil meets a titan. "Sensei, just what kind of deal did you make with that…alien?"

"One that will grant us an even brighter future than we had imagined." The warehouse seems to darken as All For One's chilling evil grin stretched across his mangled face. "One that will make the likes of All Might seem insignificant in the grand scale of it all."


Meanwhile, Sunder stews in defeat from behind a ray shield.

The small shuttle is silent with him being the only beating heart on board. Not even a droid is on board, the ship's navigational computer is the only thing controlling this spacecraft.

Sunder scans the small shuttle until he spots a smaller containment unit and behind the ray shield he spots his axe, or at least what remains of it. Nothing but the blade and shattered pieces of the hilt remain, suspended in the air behind the ray shield like atrophy on display.

Sunder scowls, leaning against the wall in defeat, stewing in his failure; he never so much as saw the Omnitrix let alone Izuku Midoriya. Instead he was bested by a female youngling, a human welp!

The thought and constant reminder boils inside of him. "I will have the Omnitrix. But first I will be paying you back for your insolence, youngling." That's a promise.

Suddenly the entire shuttle shakes as it's forced to a stop. The shuttle goes completely dark with only the red glow of the ray shield providing any lumination.

Sunder remains seated, peering around, wondering what's going on. He listens and confirms that this shuttle has been boarded, by whom he doesn't know.

And then the side hatch slides open and a slender figure slithers inside.

Sunder can't properly make them out in the dark he can only watch as the figure slinks over towards the remains of his axe.

The figure deactivates the ray shield before scooping up the blade within.

"Who are you?!" Sunder barks.

The figure finally takes notice of him. "Are you Sunder the Retriever."

"I am." Sunder scowls, trying to appear as intimidating as possible even while locked up. "What is it you want?"

"My master would like to enroll you under his employ."

"Employee him? "And if I refuse?"

"Well then," The figure holds the blade up, the red glow illuminating his sneer. "We'll just have to cut our ties."

Sunder eyes the blade warily and although he seems wary he can't just overlook a possible profit. "So…what's my cut?"

Psyphon grins wickedly knowing for a fact that his master will be pleased.


THE PREVIEW:

Izuku: ACHOO!"

Terraspin: Oh my, here have a tissue.

Izuku: Thanks. Huh, much better.

Terraspin: Do you have allergies? You've been sneezing all day?

Izuku: No, I don't. I don't what it is. I guess someone's been talking about me.

Terraspin: Huh, perhaps you're right.

Izuku: Can I ask you something?

Terraspin: Of course.

Izuku: Do you think any way's gonna care that I wasn't in this chapter?

Terraspin: Hm, no I don't think it that'll find it that weird.

Izuku: Oh, good that's a relief.

Terraspin: I'm glad you feel that way because it's gonna be the same next time.

Izuku: …Wait. What?

Terraspin: Oh yeah you won't be in the next chapter…maybe…probably…most likely.

Izuku: Wait, how come?

Terraspin: The author said he wanted to write an easier chapter so some of your classmates are gonna be the focus.

Izuku: Really? Who?!

Terraspin: Not sure but they better be careful. I heard there might be some bad weather.

Both: Next time: Ch.53 Purple Rain!

Izuku: I hope I'll be back afterwards then.


And that was the chapter. And I hope it was okay. I know it wasn't great, admittedly I found something out as I was writing…Sunder's kinda boring character, not gonna lie. I totally blanked on what to do with him and honestly the only thing he has going for him is his axe. And I know someone will point out that the axe sending Ben to the Null Void was technically an accident but let's be real if that didn't happen that whole episode would have been boring. So I changed it for here, the axe itself has the capability to send objects and people to the Null Void upon being severed. Also the Null Void will be further explored at a later time so don't worry about that.

But in any case I at least hope the League of Villains and Vilgax were worth it. And to be hornets they're what I really wanted to write about for this chapter after all they really pushed the plot forward in a lot of ways. And believe me more is to come from them and the consequences of this meeting will be revealed in due time.

*So the next chapter was not originally gonna be part of this story but I am adding it in because it does admittedly fit in very well. But to be honest it will mostly (totally) be filler but it will be fun. Why am I doing it? Because I really need to write an easy, and shorter chapter. These long ones have been draining me and I know for sure I can write this next one faster and easier. Basically I'm writing an easy chapter before I get into another really big chapter. And I do mean a BIG chapter as in it will mostly likely be a 2 parter so get ready.

***I HAVE A NEW SIDE STORY! Yes guys I have started a new side story that is connected to this main story. The new side story is called "Heroes Never Die; It's Hero Time, Anytime." Now it is NOT the spin-off story I promised to contain the time travel and alternate reality stuff. This side story is a collection of Omakes and potentially OVAs and the plan is to update that side-story weekly so you guys can confirm that: A. I am alive. B. Have some more fun scenarios with the characters and aliens. And C. I will use the Omakes as a means to inform you guys on the next real chapter's progress. So please have a look because it's fun and there's more of an explanation about the side-story within the first chapter. So if you have questions or suggestions please check out the explanation first.

*EASTER EGGS: Franchouchou is the idol group from Zombie Land Saga. Gatorboy and Porcupine are taken right out from the original Ben Ten series. Purple Puma and Tiger Millionaire are of course references to Steven Universe. Tokyo Disney is pretty obvious. Oh and Silvally and Naganadel are Pokémon for those that don't know.


Responses for "Guest" reviewers from Ch.51:

Atom king: This is another great chapter with rojo and the road pirates, I like the backstory of the road pirates you give especially with turbine being a expelled U.A student I wonder if later in the story that turbine will get a redemption arc like Kevin plus I'm curious about turbine and rojo relationship given how rojo show some concern when izuku mentioned beating them .
Now Hatsume being the next U.A. student that izuku team up, I like it we get to see more of her skills and her inventions in action I really like the remote control car being controlled by a old game controller I don't know why but the moment I saw that a image of a giant blue robot with car for head came to my mind I love to see hatsume piloting megas . Anyway I like that we get to see more of hatsume family history with her working in her family garage and how popular it's with the race car community.
I like that izuku and crab are becoming friends and possibly becoming partners much like his dad and chopper, I did like that moment with chopper and Crab running away from hatsume imagine her reaction towards one-one I hope she joins the plumbers.
Speaking of the plumbers it seems that Hisashi was about mention that his Grandpa was part of the plumbers I hope to we come back to that.
Now finally rojo gets to meet vilgax in person and she is terrified discovering the truth about vilgax and aliens existence with seven seven taking off his helmet show his face terrifying her but what plans do vilgax had for her, is he making this story version of the negative 10 team that would be awesome.
I can't wait to see the next chapter and the collection of one shots.

CreateGunner1209: Thanks I thought it was one of my more creative chapters. And I'll be sure to explore their backstories further in the future for sure. And I'm so happy to hear you loved the character interactions they are my favorite thing to write about, second only to action scenes. And yeah I'll just say it…I'm making a version of the Negative Ten but one that fits better with Izuku's theme… Okay I'm making a Negative Nine! God, I said it!


Guest: Do you plan to give Izuku aliens that Ben doesn't have? Like perhaps the Lenopan DNA or even Argit's species? Derrick J. Wyatt said the name would be "Snorecupine" if Ben unlocked it.

CreateGunner1209: No nope nope nope…only a few may be exceptions but as of now no. I would much rather introduce the main cannon aliens first before moving on to OCs.


Guest: Great chapter. I always love some four arms action.

CreateGunner1209: So do I. So do I


DeadCool14: This was fun, really clever with Rojo's name, I had no idea cuz Idk Japanese. Oh boy the plot is indeed gckhtiienn. Can't wait to see what Uraraka's up to

I forgot to mention this in the last chapter but I'm really glad you're having the characters, including Deku, learn lessons and grow along the trip which is really the essence of the classic series. But hopefully no character progression will get reset for the story of the episode-er chapter.

Don't worry I understand, I don't mind waiting as long as we get quality chapters like they all have been; can't wait for those omakes

Also, I can see how people would've wanted for Upgrade to debut here but I'm sure you've got something good planned. Honestly I think that Jury Rigg would've been a better alien to debut in this chapter, maybe Mei's parents could've been Planchaküles that adopted her, which would explain a lot, but she doesn't know their aliens.

And these are the videos:
"(Kid Cosmic ) poor Papa G's clones" all these could be Echo Echo moments and it would fit since Echo Echo's clones work better together and I like how they mentioned in And Beyond that they're all always happy to help
"Ben 10: Ultimate Alien - Kevin Makes References To Captain Planet and The X Files" he does more references to them in the episode, it's called "The Widening Gyre"
And ok I get it

Sorry I honestly didn't remember if I asked you before or not, sorry.

Does Feedback currently have the bolts he gets when he's 16 or will he get them later? Cuz I feel that that's important to the character

You know who I think would be a good voice for Hisashi? Ben Schwartz. He's perfect at playing a jokey goofball dad that can also be serious if you've seen Flora & Ulysses. And if you do a flashback chapter it would also fit cuz I'd imagine he'd be like Leo in Rise of the TMNT.

Speaking of which, do you have any reference for Hisashi's respirator that can be googled? I can't really picture it

Is shooting boiling water a power you added to Water Hazard? If so it's really cool. And speaking of which does he have that helmet from Omniverse?

Will Big Chill do more with his ice powers? Like how he touches or phases threw something and it freezes, or what he did when he fought Alan in Above and Beyond? Or will it just be his ice breath since you said you were gonna make them less powerful?

When Cannonbolt is unlocked can you have him fall over a lot, like he's very clumsy when not in his ball form due to his size and stumpy legs. That's a neat little character detail for him that I wish stuck because that only happens in his debut episode. Also I heard somewhere that Arburian Pelarotas only power was to roll into a ball and that Ben was the first one to use their powers in an offensive way, could you do that for Deku?

What names would you give Uraraka's parents since they don't have first names in the manga

Is Mei's car Kevin's car? Or the DX Mark 10? That's the name of Ben's car

CreateGunner1209: That's fair that you don't know Japanese but hey you do have a computer and access to translators but hey no harm no foul.

And relax I don't plan for lessons to be relearned at least not for the same characters.

And Jury-Rig was actually originally planned for the chapter but sadly he had to be cut for the sake of updating the chapter on time.

I'll check out the videos when I can.

Feedback, um, that's up to you I guess. Look Like I've mentioned before it's up to the read to imagine the Omnitrix aliens as they see fit. If you wanna imagine the eleven year old versions than you're more than free to do so.

Perhaps he would be a good voice match.

I do not have an image for Hisashi's respirator I want Voidv25 to draw up Hisashi one day and add it there.

And technically or so I've been told Water Hazard was always able to change the water's temperature. Also again it's up to you to envision the aliens.

Yes Big Chill will do more I just haven't had the chance to show them yet.

As for Cannonbolt we'll see I do like the idea of him falling over

Names for her parents? Not sure off the top of my head but it would have to be a play on Ochaco's name much like Horikoshi does with other parents like Mitsuki and Katsuki, Inko and Izuku, etc.

NO Mei's car is not either Kevin or Ben's car


Guest: Let me guess it's zomboze or it's bug guy is going to be vilgax team

CreateGunner1209: Yeah, good guesses but no


Paradox: These chapters always put a smile on my face. It's nice to see Kraab starting to become a team player. I cannot wait to see Uraraka and Mina react to everything that happened to Izuku. I am having fun

CreateGunner1209: I'm glad to hear it and yeah I'm warming up to Kraab too. I hope this chapter was fun despite it not being what you probably expected.


DeadCool 14 (again): And where the manhole cover cannon and XLR8 removing the wheels a reference to TMNT and The Flash respectively

Is Bullfrag gonna do the thing where a character pulls out a new pair of sunglasses out of nowhere after the previous one are destroyed? Speaking of which, will he use his tongue to swing around like Spiderman since he can't stick to things like Tsu

When Deku gets Gravattack will he be very happy? Because then he will have both his parents quirks, Heatblast can shoot fire from his mouth and Gravattack, well you know

I think you could introduce Mole-Stache in an Outbreak chapter if you decide to do one. You could have Deku use him and his powers for a bit until Blukic and Driba turn him into The Worst and after that you can have Deku not use him again if you want to. Also why do you dislike him so much? Yeah he's a pretty dumb alien in concept but that's kinda the point, he's silly, I personally love him cuz, I mean it's an alien mole that punches people with his mustache, how could you not love that?

When we get to the Forest Training Arc can you do a joke in which Hisashi doesn't recognize Tiger and is shocked when they tell him who he is? Cuz he used to be a woman until he transitioned in Thailand, I assume as an adult

You think some of these could work as special moves for these aliens?
"BEN 10 Alien Force: Vilgax Attacks ALL ALIENS All Combos"

CreateGunner1209: Yes it was a reference to TMNT and the Flash.

I wasn't planning on the sunglasses thing but I like it. And yes he will swing and again just give me time to show it

Yes Izuku will be happy about Gravattack

I'm not crazy about Mole-Statche and if I don't add him then I won't be upset about it. And I don't hate him but I much rather introduce the other aliens first.

Yeah Hisashi isn't going to the Training Camp and I'm not even gonna make a joke about that period. I don't want to accidently offend anybody.


Arsenal: Just out of curiosity who are your favorite aliens introduced from each series?
Like favorite from classic, alien force, ultimate, omniverse, and maybe the newest reboot?
For me my favorites are diamondhead, echo echo, clockwork, and gravatack.
How do you feel about hondo making an appearance? I feel like it would make for a very entertaining encounter.

CreateGunner1209: Class: Ripjaws, Ditto, Cannonbolt, and Upchuck. Alien Force: Jetray, Goop, and Chromastone. Ultimate: Rath and NRG. Omniverse: Gravattack, Feedback, and Crashhopper. Reboot: never watched it I tried to but I couldn't get into it. Also I would love for Hondo to make an appearance and speaking of I suggest you check out my new side story I think you'll find something there you'll like in Ch.1.


Dreadbot: I really liked this chapter I love it all the mad Max Easter eggs and I liked how you included hatsume I believe she doesn't get enough screen time in my hero academia I loved all the mad Max references can't wait for your next chapter please keep writing

CreateGunner1209: Thanks I had a lot of fun with the chapter and of course I had to do Mad Max references it would have been a waste not to. And yeah I wanted to throw Hatsume into the mix too


Guest: Dude the new chapter of MHA came out and show thirteen face, she look more a teen than adult

CreateGunner1209: Yup I saw


Shark: Kraab is one of the greatest additions to this story and I really enjoy how you're giving each side character their own time to shine. I hope maybe a team up with Shoot and endeavor would happen

CreateGunner1209: Thanks I do try and I am warming up to the idea of Kraab joining the team fully more and more. And hey more teamups are yet to come so stay tuned.


Jakesurfboy: Another chapter that was very fun to read and what a chapter it is. I did manage to look the tvtrope thing so yeah now I won't forget things in your story now. As for the chapter itself it was cool. I like how you included Hatsume in the story even though she's not a hero student which is cool it allows her to be more than just the support for the hero's but in this chapter she got to use her "babies" herself to sort of fight and that's nice. I will say I like the idea you have of Kraab be Izukus droid and therefore a good guy sort of and I like that approach to a character that is evil in its main series. 1 question I have is at some point are you going to introduce 1B students more now that season 5 has shown them off more. I feel like some of them could be used in your story in some way and while I know your following the main story once the road trip arc is over I feel like you shouldn't wait til you reach the joint training arc to put them in your story but that's my opinion you do what you want it's your story tell and I like it how your doing it. I Look forward to the next chapter and the omakes. Also I can't believe you put the Penguins of Madagascar in mha story that's unbelievable and awesome

CreateGunner1209: Thanks and it sure was. Yes the TV Tropes is very nice isn't it? And yeah the chapter was one of my more creative ones, at least to me personally and I am very happy with it. And yeah I really like the idea of Kraab being Izuku's "droid" more and more.

To answer your question about 1-B I can't promise anything. I do have some ideas to include them more but I don't think it'll ever be anything major. I am already trying to juggle Class 1-A alone as it is so no promises. But hey I suggest you check out my new side-story and it's full summary (seriously please read the full summary and explanation) because there might be an opportunity there for more Class 1-B stuff. And at one point Class 1-B students were planned to show up but at that time people (fans) were still bored and uninterested by them and they told me this and thus they were cut. Heck some of those people told me they didn't like the "extras" that are the majority of Class 1-A so you can see why I was hesitant. And no I can't add them anymore because those chapter ideas have evolved so much since then that I can't just drop them in anymore.


SilverKirito74: After several months of sh#t ( Lost three uncles , an aunt and my pet cat ) it's good to read your story once more after watching the Demon Slayer movie and did i miss a lot. Man this mini ark is getting me excited for the moment Vilgax makes his big aperance to the people of earth and some of izuku's new alien forms. Now some things i need to say.
1. Crab wasn't on the list Yamcha was on the list. ( I had to do it )
2. Izuku's dad has some work to do.
3. Will you add a Rick and Morty refrence?
4. An idea for the secret saturdays is to have them teach some clases about criptics and hisashi about alians.
5. Have Eri call Izuku papa and have him rost his dad about being a better father hell add Shoto to the mix with his cold coments.
6. If the pinguins of Madagascar meet Gang Orca would they feel fear or would Skipper chalenge him to a fight?
7. Do the plumers have a list of heros that have caused some sort of alien conflict?
8. This chapter was one big mad max refrence but i can't stop conparing it to that one sean in space jam 2.
Keep up the good work take your time and man in less than two years you have done more than you give yourself credit for and i'll take this chapter as my birthday gift thank you.

CreateGunner1209: I'm so sorry to hear that and I wish you the best.

1. Hahahaha

2. He does that's for sure

3. I will try to please keep in mind most references are what ever pops into my head at that moment I have a hard time actually planning them out sorry

4. Yeah I rather they just show up and work with the Plumbers and then leave

5. Yeah…maybe honestly I'm a bigger fan of Dadzawa

6. Skipper would definitly challenge Gang Orca

7. Yes but not much really happens since most aliens stay out of trouble anyway. Heck technically Aizawa is on that list since he's dealt with Argit before but didn't know he was an alien. This was referenced during Rath's introduction chapter.

8. Thanks and take care!


Guest: If only Izuku knew that his habit of slamming the Omnitrix core caused the mistranformations. He needs to understand that it's sensitive equipment.

CreateGunner1209: Technically that's not the issue. That was the issue for the Omniverse's version of the Omnitrix not the earlier ones. And I like to believe the older Omnitrix gave its wearer the alien they needed not the one they wanted…mostly


Guest: Do you think you'll explore multiverse stuff? I had ideas for other universes/dimensions they can check out

Ultimate Deku AU (One where he gets both the Omnitrix and OFA)

Self Absorbed Deku AU (An AU where Deku won the sports festival and gets a big head about it)

Deku and Hensu AU (One where Henzu became a better person and got into UA with Deku)

Deku 23 (an au where Deku wants to be a hero for flame and glory)

Gary Stu AU (One where Deku gets the Omnitrix with Master Control and is good at every thing)

CreateGunner1209: I suggest you check out my "Special Announcements" chapter. You will find your answers there.


Guest: Please have luzku have cousin is slug puppy and you know who I'm talking about how she is

CreateGunner1209: I know who you are talking about but they won't be cousins…maybe I still have to think about it more


Guest: How about "wrench jr" from watch dogs 2?

CreateGunner1209: He's cool but what do you want me to do with him? As a reference sure I can do that


Guest: Have you been not having Deku use Diamondhead much on purpose (since he's probably his toughest guy) or was it just a coincidence?

CreateGunner1209: No. It's all circumstantial I try my best to fit in the aliens I can and that make the most sense but unfortunately I can't get everybody in. But I do plan for Diamondhead to appear again in the future promise


Guest: I really hope rook shows up in the eri arc. Just cuz I think it'd be adorable for both him and eri to learn so much about the stuff on earth.

CreateGunner1209: I have Rook all figured out don't you worry


JoeyBoy: I love this story so much I can't wait for the next chapter! But a quick question. In the last chapter Off The Hook, was Bullfrag just a coincidence or does Tsuyu have some Incursean DNA? If she does, it will be incredible way to introduce the Incursean Empire and maybe Tsuyu can be related to Milleous and Attea because Hop Pop was her grandpa from her mom's side. The question now is who are her dad's relatives. I can see that when Attea appears Deku won't be her main enemy it will be more likely be Tsuyu, which makes sense since Milleous and Attea are backstabbers.

I can wait to see more Ben 10 villains to show up. My personal one would be Khyber because I would like to see how Deku would defeat him. Like in the show, if his dog changes sides and would need a new owner. I can only see the owner being Bakugo because I can see him secretly loving that dog to death. And if he does get ownership of the dog, her name should be Missy...It's short for Missile Launcher!

CreateGunner1209: I will not be answering that question. Not because I don't want to but because there is a reason why that occurred. And that reason is a major spoiler

Khyber has been hinted to and he will be hinted to again but I wanna save hi for later like way later when the Nemetrix can actually have time to be used. And Missy's not bad BTW

Guest: Chromastone is a very underrated alien I feel like people don't give him enough credit he held his own against vilgax, Diagon who gave ultimate Waybig trouble, and was able to bring back Petropia diamondhead's homeworld, and the worst thing is that they mainly use the argument that vilgax destroyed chromastone while diamondhead did not, but they forget 2 important points
1) it was the vilgax sword that destroyed him, that was not a simple piece of iron it was an alien sword that could be covered with tadenite
2) in the original series vilgax once hit diamondhead in the face with his fist and cracked it
he is capable of absorbing any kind of energy plus I think he was confirmed to be physically stronger than swampfire (who was strong enough to drop kick a highbreed alien a few feet, along side being able to topple over an entire highbreed weather tower) and he can fly, like seriously, I hope that he gets to do something cool like fight "all for one" 1v1 and give the guy hell and then some.

CreateGunner1209:I agree 100% and Chromastone is one of my all time favs too. And I am looking forward to the time when i introduce him and believe me it will happen


Guest: So is luzku and bakugo are friends again or not and now people think nezu is us traitor because what he said that he started the whole school with strong defense before knowing shigaraki power what do you think

CreateGunner1209: No they are not friends again, but no they can at least work together. Also Nezu is not the traitor, I heard that argument and it's dumb. And also he's known about Shigaraki's power technically since before the U.S.J. remember the disintegrated gate and the reporters were able to get in? Yeah Nezu's known since the U.S.J. what Shigaraki's power is and as a Principal of students that have Quirks that are constantly EVOLVING and DEVELOPING it comes to no surprise that he thought the same could happen for a villain.


Insert name: Gotta say, I'm loving what you're doing with Kraab. He was my favourite out of the three bounty hunters, and seeing him stick around and even getting redeemed is great. Wonder if he'll keep being just a head or if someone's going to build him and new body. I mean, Hatsume already knows about him.

I guess we'll be seeing the Road Crew again, given their connections to Rojo and with how obscure you left things with that accident. Their Quirks were cool, Baron Highway's specially, even if I still don't understand it that much.

Good seeing Buzzshock again. He seems to be getting overshadowed by the other aliens, especially Feedback. But I guess that's what happens when you have more than one electrical alien in the roster. The series should know that well by now, considering how a good chunk of Ben's aliens have that kind of power.

Aside from Ghostfreak, whom you already confirmed for this arc, I can't really predict what other aliens will be introduced next. Well, at least I can discard Gutrot, since I'm pretty sure that he's going to be appearing at the summer camp, considering that Mustard will be around. That actually makes me wonder how Ghostfreak will be unlocked. Maybe something relating to Tokoyami, since you know, he has another being inside of him?

I've been wondering, will you be doing that episode in Omniverse in which the Omnitrix causes Rook and some of Ben's enemies to turn into some of his aliens? I think it would be fun considering the MHA cast.

CreateGunner1209: I am loving what I'm doing with Kraab too. I mean he was never my favorite (not even close) but I like the freedom I have because of how underutilized he was. So, it's great. And yeah he'll get a new body eventually. When? Not sure yet but it will happen

We'll at least see the Road Crew through flashbacks when I finally reveal the rets of Rojo's backstory.

Yeah just keep on guessing I love to see it

Yes some characters will transform into Omnitrix aliens at some point and for at least a chapter. And I already know which characters that will be and what they'll turn into. It's gonna be fun but that won't be this arc so don't get too excited


Guest: Hey you should make that hisashi and burnin use to date and when they meet again well it's up to you

CreateGunner1209: Maybe but I don't see it mainly because Burnin is waaaay younger than Hisashi


Guest: I know you are going to update 2 to 4 weeks but let's see this story get 3000 reviews in end of the year

CreateGunner1209: I'm aiming for that too. And I think we can do it.


King kaiju: I was certains that you would have introduce Jerry Riggs in this chapter.
It was thé perfect opportunty for us to see him interact with Hatsume or try to tear Chopper and Kraab appart.
But hey, you are the author, you decide what you write in your story

CreateGunner1209: That was actually the original plan but he had to be cut out for the sake of updating the story on time. Sad I know but it is what it is.


Guest: To the guest say that is not biggest fan this story shut up everything in this story makes sense for luzku attack all might for not calling him hero after getting his alien power watch and author of this story is doing great in every chapter, to the author of this story you are doing a great job for this story don't listen to those not fan of your work

CreateGunner1209: Thanks you so much for the support it really means a lot. And hey does that swear off this story are really the ones missing out here not us


Guest: Oye podrías Aser que sr nighteye le diga a izuku que pronto perderá el poder que posee paso siempre pero que conseguirá algo más

Para que cuando metas a albedo el tendrá el ultimatrix y así izuku octenga el poder supremo

Si eses eso sería jenial Ber a izuku preocupado de que pronto perderá lo que le da la oportunidad de ser un herue

Sería genial ver a mirió vs gran escalofrío

Oye si cuando agas lo de l-islan podrías Aser que aparesca más de un alien nuevo

CreateGunner1209: Thanks for the suggestions. I can't promise anything as of now but thank you for sharing
