Happy New Year everyone in the world! It's 2023! Or at least…I will be! Soon. Like tomorrow soon. But I don't post on weekends so this is the closest I'll get to saying this. And now we have a whole new year to look forward to. I don't know about you, but I am ready to leave 2022 behind and look forward to the future along with all our favorite characters and aliens.
*BR-FACT (provided by RAY ETHAN)* - Humongousaur's name in Portuguese translate to the same name. The Portuguese version being called "Enormossauro." And this name is a joke as well, much like Ditto's! Being the fusion between "Enorme" (Big, massive, gigantic and... humongous. And "Dinossauro" (Dinosaur).

Yokohama City is far from any signs of nature, forests, or mountains. The closest thing this night light city can produce are weeds in the sidewalk while rats and roaches traverse the concrete jungle.
But even they stay away from the shadows as even here there are far more dangerous hunters.
Although said hunters seem to be lying in wait within their den. Shigaraki sits at his bar with nothing but a deck of cards and a game of solitaire; he's not even wearing his usual getup of severed hands. All the while Kurogiri watches on from behind the bar while wiping away at his glasses and wares.
Unable to hold back his concerns any longer, Kurogiri puts down the glass he's been
meticulously cleaning for the last hour. "You're sure they'll be alright on their own?"
"I'm a non-playable character this level. They'll make it work without me." Tomura Shigaraki responds with a calm collected smile as he slowly plays a game of solitaire. "Besides, this game has totally changed. I've been thinking of it as an RPG. We had some pretty good equips, but we challenged the big boss while still at Level One." It was an instant kill for them, a speedrun to Game Over all because he skipped the tutorial. "Really, it's more of a simulation game. I'm the player. And I'll use all my little pawns to smash through the heroes' ranks. But first, I need to make cracks in the superhuman world. That's where the Vanguard Action Squad of the League of Villains comes in. Who cares if these guys win or lose? The heroes will be scared just because they showed up."
"They're sacrificial pawns?" Kurogiri almost sounds concerned.
"Come on. Do you really think I'm that heartless? I'd never underestimate their strength. They may have different goals than me, but they're comrades, nonetheless." He slides his finger over the deck of cards, snapping up just one card. "In a society bound by ridiculous rules," He peers at the card which is in fact a photo of Katsuki Bakugou. It's him during the Sports Festival with an enraged expression as Explosions flare from his palms. "villains aren't the only ones who are being oppressed. Let's hope they can pull this off."
"Yes, let's."
That being said, Shigaraki takes another card from the deck. "It's always a good idea to have some characters in reserve."
He presents Kurogiri the playing card.
The bartender hesitates but takes the card and flips it only to find a set of coordinates written onto the Ace of Spades. "What is this?"
"Sensei's doctor located an old experiment of his. Go and fetch it."
"As you wish, Tomura Shigaraki. However, may I ask what this will all accomplish?"
A slow grin stretches across Shigaraki's face before he answers. "Chaos."
Ch.72 A Long Night
"I'll look after the other students!" Aizawa quickly tells Vlad King before he takes off for the exit of the lodge. "Protect them!"
He zips down the hall, moving swiftly and with urgency. 'If it's a full-scale attack…' He stops dead in his tracks the moment he reaches the outside. There in the distance he can see the glow of azure flames rising with the stacks of black smoke. 'We're in big trouble.'
"Looks like your concern has you distracted, Eraser."
Caught off guard, Aizawa turns to face the intruder only to find the scarred and stitched hand of a villain raised towards him. "VLAD-!" He's cut off, engulfed in a burst of burning blue flames.
A cruel smirk stretches across Dabi's features, his smile threatening to break the stitches holding his face together. "You pros oughta lay off. We haven't come here for any of you, so just stay out of our way." Unfortunately, he knows that he missed. "Nice move." He peers up towards the top of the entrance way where Aizawa managed to leap up and hold himself there just barely out of reach of the flames. "Guess you really are a pro." His hand shoots up ready to burn the hero to nothing.
But the red flare of Aizawa's eyes prevents that from happening. "Not so fast!" His Capture Scarf slings out and in one hit binds the villain's arms to his torso.
With the villain's arms restrained Aizawa pulls Dabi in while he launches himself down. As the two meet in midair Aizawa grabs Dabi by the back of the head and pulls him into his knee. After being kneed in the face Aizawa throws the villain down and slams him into the ground, pressing his face into the dirt while his left arm grips the villain's wrist.
Aizawa makes sure the villain can't escape by pressing down on his other arm and back. "What do you want, and where are your friends hiding?"
"My what?" Dabi grunts while trying to pull his face away from the dirt.
"You're right arm's next." With a chilling snap, Dabi's wrist is snapped in two with a simple flick of Aizawa's wrist; causing the villain to grunt in pain.
"Be logical about this." Aizawa warns. "At least save your legs. It would be a real pain to have to carry you off to jail without them."
"You can take your time, Eraserhead." A tiny azure flame ignites from atop Dabi's head.
But having Aizawa break his other arm also breaks his concentration.
But then a thundering crash that shakes the entire valley breaks his, causing Aizawa's head to snap up as an explosion of rubble and earth erupts in the distance. "What's that?!"
And then in the distance a building-sized silhouette of a giant emerges. Blended into the night sky and smoke-filled air the massive titan lets out a monstrous roar that shakes even him to his very core.
While Aizawa's heart drops at the sheer size of the mysterious monster, Dabi uses the distraction as a means to escape. He slips out of the hero's hold and makes a break for it. But he doesn't get far as Aizawa has enough sense to tighten his scarf's hold, lassoing the villain in place.
'He's good. I won't be able to take much more of this.' Dabi snarls, struggling back against the binds. "That's exactly the performance I'd expect out of a U.A. teacher. Tell me, hero."
Frustrated and worried, Aizawa yanks his scarf, hoping to throw the villain back down. But instead, the scarf seemingly slices through the villain's torso as it falls away like mud.
"You worried for your students?" Dabi mocks as his torso melts away.
Aizawa's stunned. 'The fire that he shot earlier wasn't his Quirk?'
"I wonder if you can save them in the end." Even as his entire body melts away Dabi is grinning in anticipation. "See you soon." Just as his face melts away to a pile of mud the fake-villain's eyes glance up towards the sky.
Panicked. Aizawa follows the gaze up towards the sky, towards the pillars of rising smoke. There soaring high above the treetops, blended into the dark backdrop of the smoke-filled night sky is an entire flock of narrow-bodied silhouettes. With wingspans as long as the trees themselves and their narrow yellow eyes glow in the darkness. All the while they all let out unnatural-beastly shrieks. "SKREEEEEEEEE!"
"Come on, Dabi! You got your ass handed to you! By a magic scarf!"
A rather well-built man wearing a black and gray bodysuit that's covering his body completely, lets his complaints be heard. The white eyes of his mask expand and stretch comedically to his flourishes and with the mask being two different colors: upper-half grey and lower-half black, really helps accentuate the look. He's also sporting a pair of red and green wristbands.
Dabi leans against a nearby tree after setting more of the forest aflame with his azure fire. "How weak. That happened fast, huh?"
"Huh?! Don't say that. Better to frame this as the pro being too strong." The dual-colored villain states going from a loud bombastic taunt to a professional considerate tone. "It's important to mind your self-esteem, even on a perilous mission."
But Dabi doesn't want to hear it. "Whatever, Twice. Just make another one of me. We need to keep those pros occupied."
The villain, Twice, grips his wristband and pulls revealing a stretch of metallic measuring tape. "Another small fry, comin' right up! Leave it to me!"
"Make it quick, will ya?" Dabi looks out towards the distance, towards where that freaking Godzilla looking rip-off appeared. "If we're gonna succeed we're gonna need all the firepower we can get."
"HA! Good one! That was so lame."
Despite the exhaustion and pounding in his head, the 60-foot dinosaur keeps his head raised to the sky after letting out an earthshaking roar. His left arm hangs uselessly at his side with an out of place bone and nasty blackened scales with leaks of blood dripping down his boulder-sized fingers.
But despite the behemoth's beaten state, Kota is in awe of the creature. Where a cliff once stood now lies a mountain of rubble with Muscular, the same villain that murdered his parents, is buried underneath.
The massive dinosaur tumbles back as the drain on his body kicks in. With his stamina completely drained the 60-foot giant begins to shrink back into his standard twelve-foot stature. Letting out a winded gasp for air, the transformed Deku nearly falls over as a wave of strain saps his strength away.
Peering down at his new height the alien can only conclude that his Growth must take up a lot of energy and stamina. Considering he's already drained due to training and the battle; he doesn't have enough stamina to keep such a giant stature.
"Hey!" Kota gasps in concern, moving to the dinosaur's side only to realize that there's not much support he can give the giant.
The behemoth may not be able to go to full size right now but he's still a mighty dinosaur, and one that still has a job to do. As such he takes a step, turning away from the buried villain only to stumble and nearly fall over, only stopping himself by using his one good arm to catch himself. "EVERYTHING'S OKAY… GIMME A SECOND…AND THEN THERE'S SOMETHING I HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF…"
"But you're all beat up! What more could you have to do now?"
"I KNEW HE'D BE STRONG. THAT'S WHY I HAD TO TRY TO DEFEAT HIM HERE."
Kota's not sure if he should be amazed or concerned. On one hand this guy's still focused on the danger but on the other he's a walking punching bag that really needs a sewing kit.
"SERIOUSLY UNDERESTIMATED HOW POWERFUL HIS QUIRK WAS. BUT THEN AGAIN…" The dinosaur gestures to his own size. "HE DID THE SAME TO ME." Propping himself up he looks out into the distance, just barely over the treeline, towards the glow of blue flames, rising smoke, and the mysterious purple fog. "IF EVERY VILLAIN ATTACKING US TONIGHT IS ON THE SAME LEVEL, ALL OUR LIVES ARE AT STAKE. ON TOP OF THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE AFTER SOME OF US STUDENTS." Like Bakugou and Uraraka. Heck they might be after those with heroic family ties like Shoto or Iida. "I HAVE TO LET MR. AIZAWA AND THE PUSSYCATS KNOW THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS THEY'RE HERE." With one big push he rises back to his feet. "I MAY BE INJURED, BUT I'M NOT DEFEATED YET. THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE I CAN SAVE."
Kota's in disbelief and yet…he's not scared.
"WE'LL LEAVE THIS VILLAIN HERE FOR THE TIME BEING." The dinosaur sways his head towards the mountain of rubble. "HE'S NOT GONNA BE GOING ANYWHERE ANY TIME SOON…" He pauses and then corrects himself. "HE'S NOT GONNA BE HURTING ANYONE ANY TIME SOON." He cracks a smile at the thought, letting a brief moment of satisfaction take in before refocusing on the matter at hand. "FOR RIGHT NOW, I JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE SAFE. I'M WILLING TO BET FRIEND AND FOE ALIKE SAW ME BACK THERE. MOST LIKELY THEY'RE ALL FREAKING OUT ABOUT A POSSIBLE MONSTER ON THE LOOSE." So, probably a good idea to get back and let them all know he's a friend. But of course, there are other threats to consider such as the fire. "WE MAY NEED SOME HELP FROM YOU AS WELL." The dinosaur explains peering down at Kota before turning back to the distant wildfire. "THE FOREST HAS BEEN SET ON FIRE. THAT MEANS MY FRIENDS COULD BE TRAPPED BY THE FLAMES. BUT WE HAVE HOPE. YOU'RE WATER QUIRK CAN PUT THOSE FIRES OUT."
Kota begins to shake, unsure if he can ever do what this titan's asking him to do.
"KOTA? YOU HEAR ME? WE NEED YOU." The dinosaur smiles reassuringly letting the boy know that as long as he's with him, no one's gonna hurt 'em.
And so, after braving himself, the young boy gives a hesitant yet determined nod.
"NOW, HOP ABOARD." The dinosaur lowers his arm. "WE NEED TO GET YOU TO CAMP, FAST."
"You sure you can carry me?" Kota asks as he gingerly climbs into the giant's right hand. "You're all busted up."
"NO NEED TO WORRY." The alien affirms, seating the boy on his shoulder; thus, freeing his arm. "YOU'RE RIDING A LIVING DINOSAUR, KID. AIN'T NOBODY'S MESSING WITH US!"
After pulling off that great one liner, the twelve-foot behemoth charges through the trees, plowing his way through with ease. However, his mind wanders back to what Muscular had said: '"I know. Why don't you tell me where they are? I bet that kid with the Explosions will put up a good fight or how 'bout that chick with the crazy space Quirk? Where are they hiding?"'
'I'VE GOT A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS.'
He looks out to the sky again, towards the black columns of smoke but then as he follows the stars back towards the height of the lodge, he notices figures. An army of silhouettes swoop down from the pitch-black sky while unleashing monstrous shrieks and calls that even he can hear from this distance.
Listening closely and watching how the figure's massive sharp-wings flap and flutter, along with those inhuman shrieks, the alien comes to a single conclusion. 'ARE THOSE-'
'-Mutant Bats?!' Aizawa backs away, Capture Scarf weaving around his head like serpents preparing to strike.
Appropriate considering that an entire swarm of giant mutant bats are shrieking their way across the smoke-filled air. With narrow bodies and wings twice as long as they are, they tear through the sky at blazing speed. Razor sharp talons line their wings as monstrously jagged fangs pierce out from their ling-hinged jaws. Their beady yellow eyes glow in the darkness with ferocious savagery as drool and spit spew from their maws as they screech. "SKREEEEEEEEE!"
Aizawa leaps up and kicks one of the man-sized bats right out of the air but soon has to duck as a duo swipe past his head. He manages to catch one by its feet with his scarf and swing it back at another only to dive away as a fifth mutant nearly takes his arm.
"SKREEEEEEEEE!"
Back and forth they go with the hero managing to strike one before three others nearly do him in. The only thing keeping him alive is his expert acrobatics and agility. 'They're just like before.' Aizawa thinks as he throws his head back and away from a set of bloodthirsty fangs. They're just like those mutated fish and serpents that attacked the U.S.J.!'
"SKREEEEEEEEE!"
He's outnumbered, there has to be at least thirty of them and those are just the ones he can see. Who knows how many more are out there? Thankfully they don't seem that powerful, if anything these are nothing, but cannon fodder meant to distract him. "Pests!"
"Skreeee!" But then again, these pests have teeth, and they know how to use them. Which is well demonstrated as one of the bigger ones swoops in for a bite.
And it sure receives its fair dosage of blood, as a congealed wave of it snatches the beast right out of the air.
"When dealing with pests it's always best to call an exterminator." Vlad King growls, crushing the mutant in a case of solidified blood before.
Aizawa gasps. "Vlad?! You're supposed to protect the students!"
"We saw that giant villain, and figured you'd appreciate a hand."
Aizawa pauses. "We?"
"SKREEEEEEEEE!" More mutant bats dive bomb the teachers.
"Stay away from our teacher!" Mina Ashido screams out throwing a splash of Acid at the flying rodents.
The trio of mutants shriek in pain as the Acid burns through their mangled fur. With painful shrieks they take off back into the woods.
"You rats with wings are better off back in your caves!"
As more of the swarm circles in the air some of the rodents find themselves webbed up in a ball of tape.
Hanta Sero smirks as his Tape tangles around more of their wings and talons. "Sato!"
Just like the U.S.J. Rikido Sato rips off Sero's tape and gives the mutants a new flying experience by spinning them around before launching them high into the air with a resounding roar. "Raaaaghh!"
"No mercy for you!" Yuga Aoyama winks and gleefully twirls as he fires off several Naval Lasers.
The sparkling lasers pierce through the circling swarm, blasting several right out of the sky.
"Magnifique." Aoyama winks, basking in his glorious display.
All before a trio of bats decide to greet him in person. "SKREEEEEEEEE!"
"EEEeeeekkk!" Aoyama shrieks in terror.
"Raaaagh! Hahaha!" A Hardened skinned Eijiro Kirishima and an Electrically charged Denki Kaminari manage to intercept the trio and fend them off with their respective Quirks.
"They can't touch us!" They both declare out for all the mutants to hear.
"Skreeee!" Too bad one of them decides to challenge their bravery by swopping in from behind.
"Waaahhh!" Caught off guard the two cry out in terror.
There's a slap of a hand on Kirishima's back before a blonde-figure rushes past and bashes their Hardened fist into the monster's face, busting its fangs and nose.
"Hehehe. Typical of Class A hogging the spotlight for themselves." Neito Monoma smirks, his Hardened fist poised over the unconscious flying rodent. "Don't you idiots realize just how outnumbered we are?"
He might be acting all cocky but it's clearly a face to hide the fact that he's shaking to his core at the sheer size of the swarm.
Aizawa doesn't like the looks of it either. "You're allowing them to use their Quirks?!"
Vlad King huffs as he finally drops the poor unconscious mutant. "Believe me I didn't want to. But with the current situation I thought it best to take action. HAA!" He manages to swat another out from the air before turning to his colleague and asking. "Wouldn't you agree?"
Aizawa frowns, uncertain of what Vlad King is suggesting.
"My kids are out there, the same as yours, they need us out there." Vlad King pauses before correcting himself. "They need you out there. You're faster. And your Quirk is far more useful out there than against some flying rats. We'll keep the lodge safe as you collect the others."
Aizawa doesn't know what to do. Should he leave the students he has here? That fire villain made it very obvious that he'd be back. But what about the rest of the students? Will they really be fine on their own? What is he-
"Mr. Aizawa."
Aizawa stops, looking over to see a terrified yet Mina stare up at him with determination in her dark eyes. "Everyone…is so…afraid. But we can do this." She steels herself even as her antennas twitch and sway with every ounce of fear emitting across the forest. "Please…save everyone!" She cries out.
And with that his mind is made up. "Everyone stay on your guard! I'll be back!" He takes off, sprinting past the man-sized mutants before vanishing into the brush.
Seeing that the show is his now, Vlad King gets to rallying the troops. "Listen up! Today there is no Class A or Class B. Today I want you all to show me what the First Year Class of U.A. can do! Do you understand me?!"
"SIR, YES, SIR!" The entire remedial group cries out in unison.
"I want at least fifteen bats downed by each of ya! The losers have to clean the latrines."
"ARE YOU SERIOUS!?"
Meanwhile, Aizawa continues through the darkness taking heart that he knows they'll be in good hands, but he still has his worries. 'That villain. He must have been fighting someone, a student? If he decides to set his sights on the lodge everyone will be sitting ducks.'
He changes directions heading off towards the risen or rather collapsed cliffs.
He's slowed down, no longer is the dinosaur crashing through the forest but instead lumbering forward, causing the ground to thump with every heavy step. His breath is labored but steady as the transformed Deku tries to conserve his strength.
But another reason he slowed down was the boy fidgeting on his shoulder. Kota's been uneasy for the entire trip, constantly scanning for anything scary while shaking with fear.
The alien feels guilty, the kid shouldn't have to go through this. He needs to distract him, get his mind off the danger. "I COULD USE YOUR HELP."
Kota's head snaps down at the dinosaur. "Huh?"
"I NEED YOUR HELP TO COME UP WITH A NAME?"
Kota stares, not sure if he heard him right. "What?"
"YEAH. I NAME EVERY ONE OF MY TRANSFORMATIONS. YOU ALREADY SAW WILDMUTT. AND THEN THERE WAS UPCHUCK. BUT THIS GUY'S NEW. SO, I NEED A NEW NAME."
Kota gives him a deadpan stare. "That's dumb."
'SO, HARSH!'
But despite the jab, Kota still takes the time to think about it. "I-...I don't know. How about…Fossil Fighter?"
"HM. I DON'T KNOW. I LIKE SOMETHING MORE CREATIVE. YOU KNOW, BRANDABLE. LIKE…DINO MIGHT! OR MAYBE DEKU-REX? MT. CRETACEOUS? OH! OR HOW ABOUT, DINOROAR?! I LIKE THAT ONE!" The newly dubbed Dinoroar nods, grinning from ear to ear, proud of his creativity. "WHAT DO YOU THINK?"
Once again, Kota gives the giant a deadpan look. "Those are the lamest names I've ever heard."
'SO, HARSH!'
But either way Kota does try to at least offer something up, but nothing sounds right. All he can think about is how humongous this dinosaur is. "Maybe…Humongous? Humungou-...saur? Humungousaur?"
"HUMUNGOU…SAUR?" The dinosaur considers the name and smiles. "HUMUNGOUSAUR…? OH YEAH THAT'S THE ONE!" He inhales and then bellows out his newest title. "HUMUNGOUSAUR! YEAH! THAT'S GOT SOME REAL WEIGHT BEHIND IT." Humungousaur grins up at the kid on his shoulder. "IT'S PERFECT."
"Yeah. I guess." Kota shies away but a tiny smile manages to slip out.
Humungousaur's glad he could help; hopefully this experience won't be that traumatizing.
A sudden rustling of leaves and branches alert them to nearby movement, instantly putting them both at edge.
Kota immediately cowers into the dinosaur's neck. "What was that?"
Humungousaur gently grabs him and tucks him close to his chest, keeping him safe from whatever's out there. "KEEP STILL."
They watch the shadows closely as an ominous silence befalls the forest. Every soft rustle of leaves and twigs sets them more and more on edge, the behemoth becoming more paranoid with every dragging second.
Like a serpent striking at its prey, a flash of a tendril or thin tentacle shoots out from the brush and makes a beeline for the terrified Kota.
Humungousaur swats the whip away. "HE'S MINE!" He tucks the kid closer, shielding him completely from view. 'NOT GOOD! THEY'RE AFTER KOTA!'
One after the other these mysterious tendrils lash out and whip at the dinosaur's hide. Forcing the giant to tuck himself in, ensuring Kota's safety first and foremost. But the more the barrage of whips strike at him the more and more panicked he becomes. With one arm on Kota and the other broken, not to mention how exhausted he is, he can't risk another one-on-one fight with some unknown villain. But at this rate he's nothing but a giant sitting duck!
Just as he's considering using the last of his stamina to go humongous, the mysterious tendril wraps itself around his neck with a crack as a set of feet land on his shoulders. His head is then pulled back by with a snap, nearly choking him as he's forced to face his attacker.
"Let the child go. Or you'll find out what happened to your ancestors." A pair of glowing red eyes glare down at the dinosaur as a wave of black hair dances off the man's head like ebony flames.
Humungousaur instantly recognizes his attacker, not as a villain but as a hero. "MR. AIZAWA! IT'S ME!"
Aizawa pauses, his red eyes going dim as he takes a second to let his eyes adjust to the darkness. "Midoriya?" He spots the Omnitrix, realizing his mistake before he unwraps his Capture Scarf and hops down. "Apologizes. I thought you were-" He cuts himself off, his breath escaping him as he takes in just how busted up the teen is.
This may be an unfamiliar form to him but it's clear that this dinosaur is not supposed to have a black and twisted arm, a bruised hide, or an inflamed eye.
But despite all that, Humungousaur's just relieved to see him. "YOU'RE HERE. THANK GOODNESS." He lowers the shaken Kota down, allowing the boy to slide off his hand. "I NEED TO CATCH YOU UP ON WHAT I'VE LEARNED ABOUT THE VILLAINS, BUT-WE-DON'T-HAVE-MUCH-TIME."
"Hey-"
With his adrenaline pumping from the scare, the transformed Deku barely gives himself a second to breathe as he spills over the details. "PLUS, I-NEED-TO-FIND-MANDALAY. THERE'S-SOMETHING-I-HAVE-TO-TELL-HER!"
"Hold on!"
"PLEASE, TAKE-CARE-OF-KOTA-WHILE-I'M-GONE!"
Aizawa scowls as the giant-sized student rambles on. 'This kid is running on pure adrenaline.'
"I'LL-BE-BACK-SOON!"
"Wait, Midoriya!"
He nearly took off into the woods, but he finally has enough reason to stop and listen.
Aizawa sighs in exasperation. "Those injuries… You went too far again, didn't you? Have you forgotten about Hosu?"
"UH…" Humungousaur thinks back on what Chief Tsuragamae has told him and his friends after the fight with Stain and SixSix: "'That's why it's against the law for uncertified people to use their Quirks to cause injury. None of you had the authority to harm the villain.'"
"NO. I HAVEN'T."
Then he understands. "Go. But tell Mandalay something for me, too."
Back in the clearing, the Wild Wild Pussy Cats are engaged with the League of Villains and are having a rough go at it.
Magne is expertly blocking and dodging every one of Tiger's Cat Punches, his claws just barely wheezing past her head. "No fair! Back off! Let me equip my item!"
Her metal bar is left discarded, lying beside an unconscious Pixie-Bob.
Tiger spins into the air, and throws a rolling kick followed by an array of powerful Cat Punches, but the villain easily dodges and ducks through each one before leaping away. 'Damn it! How is she predicting my Cat Combat?!'
But if he thinks he's got it bad, then he might have some tiny solace in the fact that he's not the only one struggling with his opponent.
"You're not-" Spinner takes a swing with his collage of swords. "A real hero!"
Mandalay just barely dodges the blades with only milli-seconds to spare. 'He's not letting me through!'
As she leaps back her eyes trail over towards the main path, where Iida had led the other students away. That's when she spots a purple-armored figure blocking their way.
"Tiger! The kids!"
Tiger turns away from Magne to look. "Who is that?!"
Before Tiger can make a move, Magne is the one to cut him off with a sly smirk. "Did you really think they'd send only two of us to deal with pro heroes?" She turns to call out to the kiddies. "Listen up darlings! Say hello to our dear acquaintance, SevenSeven! He came highly recommended, I'll have ya know! Not much of a talker though."
Horrified, Tenya Iida comes to a stop, confused. "SevenSeven…?"
SevenSeven interrupts him with a dialogue of incomprehensible growls and gurgles. "Tno'd uyo tge ti? Uyo'er ealngid with het tetsal odlem!" He then draws his arm-blaster at the kids and fires.
He unleashes a rapid fire of laser bolts upon the teens, who dive out of the way at the last second as the burning bullets of plasma race through the air, nearly hitting the pro heroes and his own allies.
Spinner uses his giant blade as a shield against the incoming laser bolts. "Hey! Friendly fire! Friendly fire!"
But SevenSeven doesn't heed his warning, instead bringing in his second arm-blaster into the mix. "Ym dba! Tgo na tihcy ggrriet gnerfi!"
Just before he's about to fire Iida leaps into action, reacting instantly to the danger.
"MOVE!" With a boost from his Engines Iida boosts forward and manages to sweep up all three of his classmates in his outstretched arms and hurry them all aside just as SevenSeven unloads his blasters.
Iida dashes across the clearing with violet laser bolts hot on his heels.
Seeing that they're inches away from being turned to ash, Mashirao Ojiro shoves himself away from Iida. Giving himself a spin of his body, he manages to slap a lone rock right off the ground with his tail and shoot right back at the stationary bounty hunter.
*WHACK!* The rock hits his arm dead on, deflecting it away much to SevenSeven's annoyance. "Yhe! Tchwa het aintp jbo!"
Unable to carry them all, Iida slides to a stop against the rocky earth with Minoru Mineta tumbling out of his arms.
"I t-think you made him angrier." Mineta cowers, hiding behind his Class Rep.
"Help us, my feathery friends!" Fearing for their lives, Koji Koda cries out into the nearby woods.
Just as SevenSeven's about to shoot a small flock of pigeons and crows swarm him. Pecking and cawing at his helmet, hindering his vision.
"Mnitad! Trisf atbs, own irbds! Yhw peds hits uthroa ikel sinug anmiasl os ucmh?!" He swats and swipes at them only for the birds to just barely evade his claws.
With the villain distracted, Ojiro sees this as their opportunity to counter. "Now's our chance! He's just one guy! We need to fight back!"
Mineta is quick to air his panic. "Are you crazy?!"
Koda seems hesitant but is also considering it. "But-they need help!"
"We need help!" Mineta cries.
Seeing that this is going nowhere Ojiro turns to give the Class Rep. the final say. "Iida!"
But he doesn't know what to do either. He's hesitating to rush to a decision, despite the situation needing him to act quickly. Of course, he'd like to assist the heroes as much as possible. The last thing he wants is to abandon them and leave them to deal with three villains and whatever else is out there like that roaring giant they saw.
But his mind races back to Hosu City and how he and his friends were admonished for their…his actions. He cannot in good conscience disobey the law, but his conscience will not let him rest if he were to turn tail and run. But he can't risk his classmates' lives either?!
"Aaaah!" Iida's mind is racing, swirling with fears and indecision to the point that it feels like his head is going to explode.
"Cissinoed. Cissinoed."
Iida's head snaps up just in time to witness the bounty hunter brutally cutting down the flock with a high-tech sickle.
The villain grips the sickle by the hilt with the blade itself projecting out as a violet-colored plasma that sparks in the dark lit forest.
"Khnti reacllfyu own. Ro uyo imhgt utjs osel uory ahde."
"Kids!" Mandalay screams and quickly tries to make a move to get to them.
"Don't look away!" Enraged, Spinner takes another swing, this time grazing Mandalay's aura to the point that he manages to slice off a few of the acrobatic heroine's hairs. "You brought this on yourself, girl!" He raises the massive great sword over his head and takes a massive swing down at her.
Mandalay once again barely dodges as the great sword smashes into the ground with grizzly effects. "Jeez, you're persistent!"
"As are you!" The lizard pounces after her with the great sword at the ready. "But it's time to knock you off your false throne!" With her in the air, he prepares the killing blow!
"SMAAASH!" A giant fist crashes through the brush and totally shatters the collage of blades to nothing much to Spinner's horror and Mandalay's surprise.
Even Iida and the others, along with SevenSeven, are taken back as a twelve-foot-tall dinosaur stampedes onto the scene at full speed.
"MANDALAY!" The behemoth roars with abandon. "KOTA! HE'S SAFE!"
Mandalay's head snaps up just as she spots the familiar hour-glass symbol on the dinosaur. "You found him?!"
"AND I'VE GOT A MESSAGE FROM MR. AIZAWA!" Humungousaur slides to a stop, his momentum and weight too great for him to properly slow down. "WE NEED YOU TO USE TELEPATH!"
Aizawa is dashing through the woods at full speed, even with the terrified Kota clinging to his chest he ensures that every step is quick and light, ensuring himself a quick return. The only weight on his mind is that of the villain Dabi's words: "'Tell me, hero. You worried for your students? I wonder if you can save them in the end."'
That statement made it all too clear. 'His words made it clear to me that our students are the targets. So, it's unavoidable. They have to protect themselves. And each other. Go ahead and use your training. I'll take the heat.'
Humungousaur roars out Aizawa's message with the ferocity of his ancestors. "TELL EVERYONE IN CLASS A AND CLASS B THAT ERASERHEAD HAS GRANTED THEM PERMISSION TO ENGAGE IN COMBAT WITH THE VILLAINS!"
Mandalay instantly understands. {"Everyone in Class A And Class B!"} Her Telepathic message goes out and floods the head of every student in the entire valley. {"In the name of the pro hero, Eraserhead, you are granted permission to engage in combat! I repeat. Use your training. You may fight these villains!"}
Iida's head snaps up in shock. Before a cold realization dawns on him.
Meanwhile, Mandalay may have given the message, but she still has her reservations. 'I hope you know what you're doing, Eraser.'
He does.
'Future heroes. Do not let this night be the end of your journey!' Aizawa takes off faster through the brush and thickets, while making sure Kota is safely secured in his arms. 'I forgot to tell Midoriya to come back right away. This is bad. The only reason he's still going with those injuries is because of the endorphins pumping through his body. It's temporary. Once he's accomplished his goals and calms down a little, he won't be able to move at all.'
"M-Mister." The terrified Kota chokes back a sob as he clings to Aizawa's shirt and buries his face into his scarf. "Is he gonna be, okay?"
Aizawa hesitates to answer. Instead giving the boy a chance to air his regrets.
"I…I sort of kicked him before. And still, he got beat to a pulp just so he could protect me." With a sob his little fist tightens into Aizawa's scarf. "I-I never ap-apologized. Or even th-thanked him. Please tell me… He's not gonna get hurt more, r-right?"
Aizawa surely hopes not but on the other hand… "Don't worry. He sustained those injuries because he has no intention of dying. Though, as his teacher, when this is over, I'll have to scold him for acting without my permission."
Kota peers up at the hero in confusion. "Really?"
"Anyway. You'll get your chance to talk to him again. And when you do, put more emphasis on the "thank you" part."
With the message sent, Mandalay returns to worrying about the students' safety. "Get back to camp right now!" She jumps and delivers a kick to Spinner's side. "Those injuries aren't normal!"
"I'M SORRY. I CAN'T!" Humungousaur rises and quickly, or as fast a heavy dinosaur can, runs for the forest. "YOU NEED TO SEND ONE MORE THING! THE VILLAINS, I KNOW TWO REASONS THEY'RE HERE!"
His classmates gasps, freezing in place as their hearts come to a stop.
Even while in combat with Tiger, Magne's ears perk up at the news. "Huh?"
"THEY'RE AFTER KACCHAN AND OCHACO! PLEASE, YOU HAVE TO LET THE OTHERS KNOW!"
"Kacchan?! Who's that?! No! Wait! Stop!" Her calls fall on deaf ears as the giant rushes past and back into the woods just past the brawling Magne and Tiger.
Magne is instantly put on edge at the sheer presence of the monster. 'That rumble in the ground earlier. Only three people in our group fight with that kind of power. And sounds like one of them talked. Could it possibly have been Muscular? Don't tell me this fossil is more powerful than him! In that case-...!' Magne shoves tiger away and yells out to her teammate. "SevenSeven!"
With blazing agility, SevenSeven rockets across the battlefield, plasma sickle whipping around in his claws as he prepares to slice up the giant meat shield. "Ll'i utc uoy wond ot zesi-!"
But he's the one cut off, as a rock-hard knee to the helmet bashes into his side and knocks him away. "Didn't you hear Mandalay?! Mr. Aizawa has given us permission to use our Quirk!" Engines roar to life as Iida sends SevenSeven flying. "I refuse to let you harm anyone else!"
With SevenSeven held back, Humungousaur is able to crash through the forest unhindered before vanishing into the dark underbrush.
While combating Tiger, Magne snarls at the annoyance. "Darn, kid!"
As she and Tiger clash fists, Ojiro swings around Tiger to deliver a strike with his tail, landing it into Magne's side and shoving her away.
Magne nearly tumbles over as she's knocked back. She snarls as Ojiro takes a karate like stance beside the cat-posing hero. "My mistake I meant to say, darn kids. Spinner stay on your guard!"
"Of course!" Spinner shouts back while quickly back peddling away from an onslaught of purple balls. "But if only I can keep my balance!"
"Waaaah!" Snot is running down Mineta's face as he throws Sticky Ball after Sticky Ball at the villain. "Damn you villains! This was supposed to be a test of courage where I'd finally get to witness some superb gothic beauties!"
"You're absolutely aberrant! Clearly this society has poisoned you! GAH!" Spinner gets the wind knocked out of him as Iida zooms in and delivers a high-speed kick right into his gut.
"We are not poisoned!" Iida shouts, zooming away from the stumbling lizard. "We simply wish to protect our friends and mentors!"
Mandalay is blown away by these kids as she's left stunned at their bravery. "These kids…"
Suddenly a chorus of flapping wings, feathers, and caws crash their way through the leaves and treetops as a wave of angry eyed birds floods over the forest clearing. All accompanied by Koda's shouting. "Defend your home my magnificent flying friends! Help us save everyone!"
His cry pierces the birds' minds and hearts as they all caw and dive bomb the villains.
*PEW! PEW! PEW! PEW! PEW! PEW! PEW!*
A rapid fire of red laser bolts forces the flock back as SevenSeven comes racing into view with fury in his eyes. "Lrihgta, meit ot elt osoel!"
With a roar he sprints into the fray just as the flood of birds decide that he's to be their first target.
But he repels them away by tossing up a handful of grenade pelts that explode causing blinding lights and bangs to dance in the air.
"My eyes!" Tiger goes blind too along with the panicking birds.
He swipes at his eyes, trying to regain his vision but as he does, he's met with SevenSeven's violet sickle.
SevenSeven slashes at his head, but the hero's reflexes are just milliseconds faster as he just barely throws his head back. The sickle slices up through the air and if he had been a moment to late the blade would have sliced right through his chin and up through his skull.
"Haaa!" Ojiro rushes to Tiger's aid, leaping through the air to deliver another strike of his tail.
At the same time Tiger rebounds and prepares a devastating right hook!
The strikes do land, but too little to no effect as SevenSeven has caught their incoming limbs within his claws. Gripping them tight his rocket pack explodes to life, rocking them all into the air.
The two scream as they're ripped right off the ground only for the bounty hunter to start spinning at high speed before letting them go and launching them away.
"AAAHHH!" Ojiro screams watching as the ground comes closer and closer.
"Ojiro!" Iida zips across the battlefield, his eyes locked onto Ojiro's falling form. He turns and manages to catch the Tailed Teen in his arms but their momentum's too great causing them to slide before falling to a stop with Iida still holding onto Ojiro. "Are you alright?!"
He is but has other concerns. "What about Tiger?!"
"I'm fine!" Tiger shouts from across the clearing as he slides to a stop with both hands and feet on the ground. "Cats always land on their feet."
As Tiger recovers, they all look to the sky where SevenSeven hovers in the air before them. His sickle out and ablaze as his left arm returns to its blaster form. All the while Spinner and Magne regroup just below him.
But despite the villains' display the students don't show a hint of wanting to back down. Sure fear is there but their resolve keeps them standing shoulder to shoulder with each other.
Which is of course something Tiger can greatly respect. "Here's the deal, kitties! We're going to give these villains all we got! But the moment things turn for the worse I want you all out of here! No exceptions, you hear me?!"
"We're with you crazy catman!" Mineta screams with tears still dripping off his eyes while he clutches a pair of Sticky Balls
"I wish to be of use." Iida calls back as he and Ojiro prepare to defend themselves. "I am willing to do what I must as Class Rep!"
"All talk!" Spinner spits back venomously. "Nothing but hot air from fake heroes!"
"Nuoghe" SevenSeven roars as a set of blasters shoot out from his ribs like thin tentacles. "I anwt ot hpoc uoy lal pu, fof eerncs!"
Meanwhile, Mandalay is at a loss as she's debating going after the giant student but knows it'll be a waste of time since he's already gone. 'Can't stop the boy, but I can relay his message.' Her Telepath Quirk goes out once again. {"Listen, we've discovered two of the villains' targets! One is Ochaco Uraraka. And the other student's named Kacchan."}
"SKREEEEEEEEE!" Even through all the shrieks and the flapping of giant wings those left defending the lodge can hear Mandalay's message as clear as day.
Kirishima's own head snaps up in worry at the message. "Bakugou?!"
Mina slides in next to him in a hurry after avoiding a swooping mutant monster. "Ochaco, too?!"
Denki frowns with worry as sparks continue to dance off his body. "What do they want with them?!"
{"Uraraka. Kacchan. You should try to avoid combat. And stick to a group."}
"Aw, damn it!" Out of frustration, a Hardened Kirishima clobbers a bat right out of the air, smashing its fangs into its hideous face.
"Skreee!" With a wail the flying mutant losses control and crashes against the ground before sliding to a stop just before the tree line.
As the bat crumbles before the forest, a looming figure lets a cruel smirk stretch across his stitched-up features as his turquoise eyes light up under a light of azure flames.
{"I hope you both can hear me!"}
A crazed grin is stretched across Katsuki Bakugou's face as races down the forest path. "I could focus if you got out of my damn head!" He's charging right at the black straightjacketed villain with the intent to fight. "I can take care of myself!"
The villain's jagged teeth jitter and shake in the villain's pried open mouth. And with the sickening clashing of metal scraping metal, his teeth jet out to form webs of sharp metallic blades.
Bakugou's moving too fast, he's going to be skewered!
An ice wall shoots up and takes the hit, causing the elongated web of blades to embed themselves into the ice.
"Don't rush into this fight carelessly!" Shoto Todoroki scolds while carrying a passed-out Kosei Tsuburaba on his back.
The villain, known by his allies as Moonfish, rises into the air. His Quirk, Blade-Tooth, allowing him to generate a web of sharp and elongated blades against the ground and raise him up into the air by his own jaws. "Have to keep going… Have to work… Do my job…!" He lets out a pained moan almost like he's starving.
Shoto really doesn't like the looks of this. "Weren't you listening to Mandalay? They're here because they're after you."
Bakugou's so frustrated that the blood vessel on his forehead looks like it's gonna pop! "Telling us not to engage and then changing their minds. I don't know how, but I got the feeling this is Deku's fault." With a bloodcurdling scream Bakugou leaps out from the cover and charges. "Well, I don't care what anyone says!"
Before he can make a move, the bladder-teeth that are still lodged into Shoto's ice wall suddenly explodes into a net of blades that nearly slice away Bakugou's face and hands.
Shoto quickly expands the ice, generating a glacier that manages to entrap the bladder teeth before rising up towards the villains.
But Moonfish demonstrates some amazing technique as he uses his own teeth to propel himself through the air, leaping and bounding away before vanishing into the canopy.
"Dammit!" Shoto glares into the canopy. "He's good at moving through this terrain with his Quirk."
Bakugou spits. "This freak, he looks like a scrawny little sidekick to me! C'mon, ya bastard!"
Moonfish answers the challenge by rising high above the canopy with his blade-teeth like some kind of twisted metal-arachnid.
Shoto backs away in hesitation. "This clearly isn't his first battle."
Moonfish let's out a starved moan. "Show me… Show me your exquisite flesh…!"
Bakugou's palms immediately begin to spark and pop with heat and fire.
"We can't start fires around here because the flames will spread!" Shoto warns seeing the azure flames already burning said forest in the distance. "Everyone could die if we aren't careful. Do you understand me?!"
Bakugou snuffs his Explosions. "Yeah, I get it! I'm not stupid!"
The dual-haired teen peers back down the path, back towards the purple-mist that is infesting the forest that they just escaped from. 'Even if we try to retreat, there's poison gas everywhere. They're obviously trying to drive us into a corner.'
He hates to admit it but…perhaps Bakugou had the right idea. The only thing left for them to do…is fight.
"Show me your flessshhh…!"
Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu dashes through the purple-clouded woods, grinning from ear to ear behind his gas mask and running ahead with a gas mask. "Did you hear what she said? We've got permission to punch people!"
"Wait, Tetsutetsu!" Itsuka Kendo and Hitoshi Shinso chase after him with a masked Kendo begging for him to stop. "Do you understand how this gas works?!"
Thankfully, he does come to a stop but only to remark back at her. "Yeah, it's dangerous. Give me some credit, Kendo."
Shinso slows to a stop with an annoyed glare that pierces through his gas mask. "That wasn't what she was referring to."
"Huh?!"
"Listen!" Kendo shouts, trying to be louder than the gas mask can muffle her voice. "Mandalay didn't say anything about the gas in her message. That means it must not have spread to wherever she's broadcasting from. But that doesn't make any sense. This gas is moving really slowly. Normally it would spread out more, right? This is staying in one place. Not acting naturally. And look." She points gestures towards the west where the purple mist is obscuring everything from view. "It's definitely denser here than it was in the area we just ran away from."
"Okay. So what?" It's still not clicking in Tetsutetsu's head.
"Take two seconds and think about it." Shinso deadpans. "She's saying that it's swirling around a single source. Somewhere nearby. Like the eye of a storm."
Kendo agrees with that statement. "If that's true, there should be someone who's producing the gas at the center of the storm. A villain who's controlling it."
And like that the pieces click together causing Tetsutetsu to beam in amazement. "Oh! I get it now! Oh, man, Kendo! You're so amazing!"
Although she appreciates the praise, she's also a bit concerned with how long it took him to put it together. "I figured you'd miss the signs."
Even Shinso's a bit miffed by it. "Knowing people like you beat me out in the Entrance Exam is kinda insulting; not gonna lie."
"Okay." Kendo draws her attention back towards the swirling mist. "The closer we get to the center of the swirl, the thicker the poison will be. That's a problem. There's a limit to how much gas these things can filter. And the denser the gas, the shorter the functioning time." Not to mention they only have one extra mask to share between them. "That means-"
"Ah! We run head-first into the center of the storm and punch whoever's there!" Like his usual fashion Tetsutetsu runs off, leading the charge straight into the mist.
"Well, technically, yeah." Chasing after him with Shinso, Kendo groans in her mask. 'He's a little one-note, but he's not wrong.'
"Shiozaki and our other classmates suffered because of this villain's stupid power. Stuff like that really pisses me off!" The Steel-skinned teen peers back at his teammates even through the thickening purple fog. "Let's teach this bad guy a lesson, Kendo! Shinso!"
"Heh!" Kendo smirks behind her mask. 'I can't say that I don't like this side of you.'
"This confirms it for me." Shinso comments running along beside her. "Everyone. And I mean everyone in the hero course is insane."
"That includes you too, ya know?"
Shinso smirks behind his mask. "Yeah. I know."
At the center of the forest a massive swirling typhoon of purple mist is slowly towering over the canopy. Like an ominous tower of death with waves of smog and poison that pollute into the air and innocent students' lungs. The swirling mist is thick like floating venomous soup, hiding anything within from view.
"Three-no. Two people are headed straight for me." A young asthmatic voice softly hums out from the short-statured villain located at the center of the typhoon. His school uniform remains unwrinkled despite all the gas expelling from his form. But thankfully his gasmask is screwed tightly around his head ensuring his own safety. While a canister of air is strapped to his back, that way he can spend hours hidden away in his own toxic Mustard Gas.
"I guess a few of them avoided my gas and realized I'm here. I should have expected that from a prestigious school." And despite sensing several intruders he is not at all perturbed or disappointed, in fact he sounds almost amused. "But then…no matter how wonderful their quirks may be…-" The young villain, known as Mustard, reaches inside his school jacket for something just as Tetsutetsu leaps through the thick mist!
"I found you!" Tetsutetsu screams, going right for the young villain.
"-they're still only human." Mustard quickly draws his hand out from his jacket with an item in hand.
*BANG!*
Humungousaur's head shoots up in worry. 'THAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUNSHOT. OCHACO! BAKUGOU! YOU BOTH BETTER BE OKAY!'
The barrel of Mustard's six-shooter pistol is smoking while a cruel amused smirk is hidden behind his mask. "Ah. I saw you on TV during the Sports Festival. You can make your skin hard."
Tetsutetsu's head has been thrown back, but he's alive with his entire body coated in Steel. Unfortunately, that gunshot to the head shattered his gas mask, leaving his face exposed to the toxic air.
"That means you're bulletproof." Mustard laughs.
Tetsutetsu stumbles back, holding his face. He might be bulletproof but that still hurt. It feels like his brain is getting rocked around in his own skull.
"Eh. That doesn't really matter. Because now, it's just a matter of how long you can hold your breath in this toxic miasma."
Tetsutetsu holds a hand to his mouth, trying to prolong the inevitable. 'Seriously? He pulled a gun?! And he took out my mask with one shot. What's this shorty's deal? And why is he wearing a school uniform?!' He charges, feeling the need to end this before he's down and out! 'He's probably my age!'
*BANG!*
Another shot, this time to the arm, repels him back again.
"What, do you think you're the Terminator?!" Mustard mocks while tapping the side of his helmet. "Even if you can Steel yourself, charging straight in is a fool's move. Shouldn't you be smarter if you go to U.A.? Don't be so rash!" He aims his revolver but not at Tetsutetsu. Instead he takes aim just below his left arm, aiming it towards his left flank. "Use your head.
Tetsutetsu panics, for hidden in the mist is Kendo who was planning on sneaking up on the villain's left flank.
*BANG!*
Tetsutetsu leaps in the way of the defenseless Kendo, taking the shot instead. "GAH!"
"Or you're not worth killing!" Mustard howls with laughter as Tetsutetsu collapses.
"Tetsutetsu!" Kendo screams from behind her mask, seeing a crack in his armor just above his eye causing bits of blood to seep out.
Even the bullheaded Tetsutetsu knows when to call it quits. "It's no good. Retreat!"
"Hahahahaha!" Mustard's laugh howls through the polluted air like a venomous taunt. "Two against one, and you were banking on a surprise attack! Haha! What a simple plan. I expected better. I'm producing and controlling this gas, yes. But that's not all. The gas is showing me your movements with its fluctuations. In other words, you can't hide from me." To make his point clear he himself vanishes into the miasma, disappearing completely from the two students' view.
"You arrogant U.A. students. Why didn't you figure that out, huh?! You're shattering the image I had of your school."
They can't see him, but they can hear him taunting them from within the thick swirling fog. They scan, searching the mist but they can't pinpoint where he's coming from at all.
"What a shame! Perhaps…-" Mustard comes back into view, appearing right behind the oblivious Kendo with his revolver aimed right at the back of her skull. "-you don't deserve to be part of that school."
Before he can shoot, a rogue Capture Scarf whips out and snags the gun away, tossing it aside and into the mist.
"WHAT!?" Mustard spins around only to find, much to his shock, Shinso leaping out from the mist. "You…-Gah!"
Shinso's foot meets the villain's gut, shoving him back.
"Someone like you has no right to call out someone else's character!" Shinso roars as his Capture Scarf lashes out again and binds his arms and waist together.
Mustard stumbles back but he finds himself tethered in place unable to move anything but his legs and wrists. But more than that he is seething with rage. "No way! How in the hell do you do that?! I can sense any and all movement in my Gas. So why couldn't I sense you?!"
"It was nothing that complicated." Shinso admits with a smirk from behind his mask, all the while the Capture Scarf hovers and swirls around his head like a serpent. "Just like them, I worked hard to get here."
##########(Flashback)#########
The spring sun beats down on a lone empty soda can. Causing its tin to shine under the surprisingly spring day as birds chirp sing the last of the flowers on the trees fall away. But a lone Capture Scarf breaks the silence as it cracks in the air but completely swerves and misses the can by a mile.
Shinso lets out a loud groan, slumping in defeat while the Capture Scarf is wrapped around his neck.
"Again." behind him stands Mr. Aizawa himself, watching critically of Shinso's every movement and action.
They've only been training for nearly a week and the boy's made great progress, but he still has a lot to work on before he's ready to join the hero course.
Shinso tries again, and the Capture Scarf does move swiftly and cover the distance but once again swerves out of the way.
"Again."
Shinso stomps his foot but has to bite his tongue as his fists squeeze in on themselves.
Not one to ignore such illogical emotions, Aizawa dresses it with his usual tact or lack thereof. "Is there something you'd like to say?"
"We've been doing this for hours!" Shinso finally snaps. Before realizing he's yelling back at a teacher. "Sorry. But how can anyone use this thing? It's a cloth! How am I supposed to throw it?" He clenches his scarf in frustration. "I'm doing everything right. I'm giving it enough power and speed so what?!"
"The air."
"Huh?"
"You're not considering the air." Aizawa explains. "The wind. The shift in currents. You have to consider all those things and read 'em." He holds a strand of his long locks and explains. "Why else do you think I have such long hair? Trust me it's not just because I'm lazy."
'I don't know. That still feels on brand for you.' Shinso thinks because we all know he'd never say that aloud.
Conveniently, Aizawa's hair shifts and sways with the gentle breeze. And with it he steps up to take a shot at the tin can. "Read the air. And determine where it's going." With a crack his capture Scarf zooms through the air and knocks the can right off its perch much to Shinso's surprise. "Only when you can get your surroundings to work with you will you hit your target."
########(End Flashback)#######
And using that same experience Shinso was able to crawl and snake his way through the fog. Moving with the wind and hiding along the swaying grass and ferns in order to get close and sneak up on the villain. It was a gamble to be honest as he wasn't sure if it would work but obviously his instincts did him right.
He can't wait to rub in Mr. Aizawa's face later. Especially, after they spent so much time training on it.
Meanwhile, Tetsutetsu stumbles to get up as it becomes clear that he's running out of breath. His hand even tightens around his mouth, like he's trying to plug his own nose and mouth from opening.
"Tetsutetsu!" Seeing this, Kendo rushes to his side.
"Kendo!" Shinso calls while keeping a firm grip on the scarf, not daring to let it loosen. "The mask." He gestures to their last gas mask which is strapped to his side.
Kendo immediately snatches it up and hurries back to her friend, holding the mask close to his face. "Here. Put it on."
He does, slapping it on quickly with Kendo's help. Tetsutetsu gasps for air and soon catches his breath. "Thanks Kendo. And you too, Shinso. That sneak attack was awesome!"
Shinso gives him a thumbs up in response. But he doesn't let go still, and good thing as Mustard begins to struggle against his binds. "You said you expected more than a surprise attack? That we were shattering your image of our school?" He holds the scarf a little bit tighter, pulling the villain slightly closer. "Is that image still shattered? Or are you still disappointed?"
Mustard goes still, staring silently back at Shinso through his red-eyed gas helmet.
Which is not exactly the response Shinso wanted, considering he was trying to activate his Brainwashing. 'Damn, he knows about my Quirk.'
Even Kendo realizes this as well as she looks back between Shinso and the young villain.
As they question how the villain could know, the poisonous fog rolls back in, this time swallowing up the villain. Mustard vanishes from view, but Shinso can still feel him tied up at the end of the scarf.
Kendo backs away from the swirling mist. "That's a lot of smog. We need to subdue him."
Shinso pulls on the scarf, tightening the tension between him and his prisoner. "Be my guest." He gives her the go ahead. But just as he takes a step all the tension in the scarf shifts.
"Huh?"
Kendo immediately stops in her tracks. "What is it?"
With a snap of a rope being sliced, all the tension in the scarf vanishes as it falls to the ground like a forgotten piece of rope, much to the trio's shock. "How did he?!"
"Idiots." Mustard's amused yet annoyed voice echoes through the mist. Like an incorporeal ghost hidden within the smog. "You've really messed up now. Did it ever occur to you that I'm the lynchpin to this whole plan?!"
There's a shift in the air, a low rumbling of a deep growl followed by a heavy set of footsteps set the trio on edge.
"So, why would they just give me a stupid gun and call it a day?!" Mustard laughs. "Naw. They decided to give me a different toy to play with."
"Graaaaaah." From within the mist a giant creature with mint-greens skin emerges.
It's large and has an extremely muscular physique with six retractable arms protruding from its back, with massive chainsaws gripped in each claw. It has only one extra pair of free hands with skinny reptilian-claws that fold inward, looking useless much like a T-rex's arms. A massive crocodilian tail slides across the dirt with massive scales and leathery hide. With its only attire being a pair of ripped black pants and kneecaps. Its brain is also exposed but most of it is protected by a shiny, purple helmet with two red visors. The helmet also stretches across the monster's entire face, encasing it's entire snout which is over two feet long.
Tetsutetsu balks at the sight of the monster. "What the hell are you?!"
Kendo at a loss. "Is that…A NOMU!?"
"Graaah!" The Chainsaw Nomu roars, raising one of its arms and chainsaw high above its head.
"Nooo!" Tetsutetsu throws himself in the way, shielding her as the chainsaw connects with his side.
The metal teeth grind and cause sparks to fly off his Steel-coated skin, tearing his shirt to shreds of yarn in the process.
"Aaahh!" Tetsutetsu screams as the metal grinds against him.
Kendo screams. "Tetsutetsu!"
"Stop!" Shinso cries out, letting his Capture Scarf fly and wrap around the Nomu's arm. With a pull he yanks the muscular arm and chainsaw away as he tries to use Brainwash. "Do you really think this is okay?!"
"Graaah!" With a roar the Nomu slashes at Shinso, snapping the scarf.
'No effect?!' Shinso thinks as he hurriedly dives out of the way before he can be turned into spaghetti sauce. 'Guess there's not much of a mind in there to begin with.'
Mustard's laugh echoes out from the mist. "The only one it takes orders from is me! This Nomu's here to do what I say! And I say, show these wannabe heroes that they're nothing!"
The Chainsaw Nomu rises at Mustard's beckon call. "Show them that their school is nothing special!"
"GRAAAHH!"
Kendo dives out of the way, just as a chainsaw slices off a few strands of her ponytail.
Frustrated, the beast swings its body, swinging its giant tail at the girl.
Able to read the Nomu's movements, Kendo's hands expand and stretch just in time to catch the incoming tail. She struggles to hold it back, her fingers gripping tightly to the scale-covered flesh. "Ugh! You're a big fella, aren't ya?!"
"Graaah!" With a growl it lifts its tail and thus hoists her up.
"Wooaah!"
Shinso throws his scarf, it snatches her by the waist, and he screams. "Tetsutetsu!"
"I know! I know!" Tetsutetsu grabs the scarf and together they pull, yanking her away just as Nomu tries but fails to slash her apart with two pairs of chainsaws.
The two manage to catch her with Shinso checking if she's alright. "You good?!"
"No!" She points back at the monster.
It charges them with its arms and weapons flailing in the air to the chorus of Mustard's disembodied laughter. "Hahahahaha!"
"GRAAAHH!" It swings down with all its might but Tetsutetsu leaps in to stop it.
Chainsaws meet Steeled-hands causing sparks to fly as the metals grind against each other
"Damn you!"
"Graaah!"
Tetsutetsu gags. "Even behind a mask I can still smell your breath!" As Tetsutetsu holds it at bay Shinso leaps up and over his shoulder, delivering a high rolling kick to the monster's helmeted face and shoves it back as a result.
As the two engage with the monster, Kendo stops as she takes in what Tetsutetsu said. 'Mask? Breath?' An inspired idea pops into her head and she excitedly declares out. "Tetsutetsu you're a genius!"
"I am?!"
With no time to explain, Kendo hurries to address the other boy. "Shinso. Think you can handle the villain?"
He stares back at her worriedly. "Why?"
"Just trust that we can handle the Nomu. Kay?"
He does. Giving her a nod before he disengages and runs off into the mist, in the hopes of locating Mustard.
Kendo steps forward, taking Tetsutetsu's side as they both get ready to face the monster alone.
"You ready?" She asks with a nervous smirk.
To which Tetsutetsu is more than happy to go align with. "You bet! But I don't exactly know what we're doin'!"
"GRAAAHH!"
They charge, taking on the chainsaw wielding Nomu alone.
All the while Mustard watches from a safe distance and while hidden away in his own Gas. But that said he isn't just standing around instead he's wandering the mist, keeping his gaze towards the ground as he searches for his pistol.
"You morons. None of you stand a chance." He stops as he senses the slightest bit of movement in the Gas. "You're all so predictable."
On que he turns away into the mist just as Shinso leaps out and tries to sock it to him. Only to realize that the villain managed to slip away at the last second.
"You really think you can hide from me?!" Shinso calls out but there's no answer. It would appear that the villain has gone silent again so as to not fall for Brainwashing.
"Graaah!"
"Shit!" A chainsaw nearly slices Shinso's head off as he senses the incoming strike and images to roll forward and away from the psycho Nomu.
With his concentration broken Mustard has no problem airing his thoughts from within the mist. "You know I watched you during the Sports Festival. It's how I know about your Quirk."
Even as he evades the Nomu, Shinso scans the typhoon of poison and yet he can't see hide or tail of the punk.
"You know I was really able to sympathize with you. You do know that don't you?"
"Graaah!"
Shinso ducks but stumbles back leaving him wide open for an attack.
"Hey!" But before it can deal the finishing blow, Kendo rushes in from out of nowhere and grabs onto its neck and pulls. "Aren't we enough?!"
She pulls, choking the monster with her giant Battle Fists causing it to flail at her while she desperately holds on.
"We got this!" She yells back at Shinso as Tetsutetsu joins in. "Go! Waah!"
He does. Scurrying back into the mist with his Capture Scarf at the ready.
He searches and searches but all he finds are Mustard's blatant taunts.
"Your Quirk it's so…useful. Too bad its weakness is oh so obvious."
Shinso spins around; he could have sworn he sensed something behind him. But nobody is there.
"You're an outcast. Aren't you, Hitoshi Shinso? Had to play dirty and sneak your way into the Hero Course. I admire that." From within the mist Mustard comes to a stop as he steps onto something hard. Looking down he smiles as he finds his pistol. "But was it really worth it?"
Shinso keen ears pick up on the familiar sound of a cocked pistol. Without hesitating he throws his body to the ground just as Mustard takes the shot.
*BANG!*
Kendo and Tetsutetsu's heads snap up. "Shinso!"
"Graaah!" With a swing of its arms the Nomu shoves Tetsutetsu away, launching him against a tree.
"Shit!" Tetsutetsu groans. "You bastard!" He charges, fists at the ready. But his mind wanders somewhere else. 'I swear Shinso if you died then I'm never gonna let you hear the end of it!'
Meanwhile, Shinso pulls himself back up to his feet. But he doesn't stay still, making a point to move around in case Mustard tries that again. He needs to stop him before this goes too far and so he needs to rely on Brainwashing one more time. "You know a lot about me. Isn't it only fair if you share who you are?!"
*BANG!*
Another shot, and he dives away but the ringing in his ears is still enough to break his concentration allowing Mustard to speak freely.
"Who am I? Like it matters. I don't go to some prestigious school. I'm not some superstar. I'm a nobody." There's a shift of bullets clinking against each other. Hinting that Mustard is reloading. "But for the sake of conversation you can call me Mustard."
Shinso can't help but snicker. "Mustard? Like the condiment?"
*BANG! BANG!*
Shit! He really shouldn't upset the guy with the gun.
"Funny." Mustard calls back. "What? Is there a special class where you guys learn to throw quips?"
"Not a class. But we do have a tutor." Shinso can't help but wonder if Midoriya let out a sneeze from wherever he is.
*BANG!*
Another shot forces him back to the ground and he rolls away as he tries to vanish Mustard's line of sight until he hits the bottom roots of a tree.
"I really do have to admire you. You're so cool. An outsider, an outcast weaseling his way to a place he doesn't belong. It's almost tragic."
*BANG!*
Taking cover behind the tree the bullet harmlessly bounces off the thick bark. But with his position compromised Shinso swiftly hurries away as Mustard contours to talk.
"I don't get it! Why would any of you want to become heroes?! Especially you, Shinso! We both looked into the abyss, Shinso! Both of us!"
As he dashes through the mist, Shinso can't help but wonder what this so-called abyss is. 'Just what the hell is he talking about?!'
"Just look at them."
Shinso hesitates but looks just to the left just as the smog dissipates just enough so he can see Kendo and Tetsutetsu holding their own against the Nomu. They move swiftly and with purpose, attacking with precision and full utilization of their Quirks. It's like watching a ballad displaying a great battle between man and horrific monsters of old.
"Look at their Quirks. Look at what class they're in. Look at how good they have it! They don't know what it's like. They don't know what it means to be forced to face the abyss. To stare into the dark deep depths of being overlooked. Of shame. Of neglect! Of disrespect! You know what it's like don't you?!"
Mustard suddenly appears before Shinso with the barrel pointed right at him.
*BANG!*
The bullet skids the Brainwasher's shoulder just as he throws himself to the side. He rolls across the ground, grabbing his bleeding shoulder as he takes off and away from the gun wielding maniac.
"We're the same, Shinso! We've both been ridiculed! We both know what it's like to live with villainous Quirks!"
*BANG! BANG!* Bullets fly after him, hitting the ground just inches from his heels.
"We're not the heroes of this story! Guys like us don't belong with them!"
Shinso slows to a stop, looking around desperately. He's out of breath and the bleeding in his shoulder is getting worse. He's becoming frantic, looking for any way out.
Sensing that he has no more fight in him, Mustard appears before him. Strolling out for the gas with the pistol raised and ready to fire at a moment's notice.
Shinso freezes, grateful that the mask is hiding his face from view.
Mustard stares back at him, before shaking his head with utter disappointment. "It doesn't make sense, we both looked into the abyss. So, how did you end up so different?"
"Well for one…I can aim."
"Grrr." He aims and fires one last shot.
*BANG!*
As the bullet flies through the air, Shinso doesn't feel fear or regret. Instead, he feels proud and almost cocky as he throws himself down to the ground.
The bullet zooms past his purple locks, tearing through them but not stopping, instead flying through the mist until it comes upon the battle between the Nomu and the kids.
And with a sickening slice through flesh and bone the bullet rips right through the Nomu's kneecap.
Causing it to collapse to one leg with a painful shriek. "Graaah!"
"No!" Mustard cries out in shock as he watches his bodyguard get crippled.
"Now's our chance!" Kendo shouts.
"I'm on it!" Tetsutetsu charges as per the plan. "Bring it on you wannabe horror show!" The steel on his body glistens and grinds against each other as he dashes forward. "Give me everything you GOT!"
"GRAAAHH!" It's more than happy to oblige as it finally utilizes all its chainsaws in order to strike down the pest of a teen.
All 6 chainsaws come flying in from all directions completely surrounding the Steel-cladded teen.
But with a clash instead of falling to his death, Tetsutetsu stands his ground catching the chainsaws in his arms. Holding five of them against himself even as their chains spin, heating up his metal and causing sparks to fly across the mist. Even his gas mask shatters away as a saw slices at his face. But he stops it, holding the bar of the blade between his iron-jaws.
'You really think this can stop me?!' It's like a fire's been lit up from under him, because his iron will refuses to break under this monster's assault. 'Don't make me laugh!'
"Yaah!" Kendo leaps in, jumping high above her classmate. "Take this you monster! This is for all those with a one-track mind!" With a spin and an expansion of her fist Kendo smashes her knuckles into the beast's helmet, smashing it apart in a single blow!
Her fist breaks through the helmet and connects with the side of the Nomu's exposed face. It's gator-like with a long snout and rows of sharp teeth. It eyes water as it meets the poisonous air, and its lungs burn as it gasps for breath.
Kendo delivers a chop down onto its arms, breaking its connection from Tetsutetsu. "Now take it all in!"
"Graaahh…" The chainsaw-wielding gator Nomu or rather "Chainjaw" chokes on the Gas, its primitive mind not letting it realize its own error as it obliviously inhales the poison. It chokes and coughs, grabbing at its throat as it stumbles away into the fog and collapses somewhere out of view.
"You. Bastards!" Mustard rages, still in shock from what he just saw. "You fucking BASTARDS! It's not fair!"
Tetsutetsu claps a hand over his mouth just while a tiny trickle of blood seeps out from the corner. But he doesn't even care, instead glad to see the punk frustrated and angry. "Why so upset? Oh. Is it because we used your own Quirk against you?"
"You think you're some kind of badass?!" The punk takes aim with his gun. "Let's see how badass you are when you're SEVEN-FEET UNDER!"
"Enough!" Not one to waste a villain being distracted, Shinso leaps in and manages to pull the pistol right out of mustard's fingers before tossing it back and away towards his teammates.
"What?!" Mustard doesn't even have time to process it before he finds his arms bound once again to his sides by Shinso's Capture Scarf.
And with a final pull by Shinso, the bind is set. "You're done."
"No…" Mustard is shaking with anger, resulting in more and more Gas spewing out from him. "I won't let anyone look down on me, again! Not ever!"
Despite all the gas it does nothing to them. As Tetsutetsu holds his breath and the rest enjoy their undamaged gas masks. If anything, the attempt at a struggle is rather sad and pathetic as Shinso is barely pulling back on the scarf.
"This is all wrong! This doesn't make any sense! Why would anyone wanna be a hero?!" Mustard cries out almost like he's lost his mind and has become delusional with reality after losing. "For people to fawn over someone like you, one-trick ponies, just because of where you went to school! THAT'S WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS WORLD!"
Shinso and the others stare back, thinking that this punk kid did really lose it. Or maybe he never had a sound mind to begin with.
Either way what he did was wrong and Shinso is gonna make sure he sets it straight. "You said we're alike. But you couldn't understand why we're different."
The young villain stops, glaring back at the wannabe hero with anger and confusion.
"There is a difference between you and me." Shinso leans in close as he wants to look the villain right in the eye, to ensure he fully understands. "We both looked into the abyss but when it looked back at us-" He yanks the scarf in hard, pulling Mustard with it as he scouts. "you BLINKED!"
He throws his knee up and Mustard's helmet smashes into it, shattering to pieces as the knee digs through and crashes right into the punk's face.
That one hit was too much for him as he instantly collapses backwards, and the Gas immediately dissipates to nothing.
Shinso stares down at the punk, ripping off his mask so that he can get a good laugh in. "You were all talk. Nothing but hot air, weren't ya?"
There is of course nor response as Mustard lies there in his school uniform, defeated and broken.
"Stupid kid." Tetsutetsu snarls after finally being able to get some fresh air. "Using a gun and wearing you're own stinking school uniform is just telling everyone ya can't fight. No wonder you needed a bodyguard. You can fight for shit!" He spots the 6-shooter and picks it up. Giving it a nasty glare like it's something disgusting. "Besides this was a peashooter compared to what we're capable of." He puts the pistol between his teeth and with a chomp and a twist he snaps it in two before giving it a chew and swallowing. "Next time, bring some real firepower."
"Hehe." For some reason, watching Tetsutetsu say something so corny while eating the punk's own weapon, makes Shinso laugh. "Dude, that's metal."
"Hehehehe." The Steel-user finally sheds his Quirk after swallowing the gun.
Kendo can't stop smiling, she's just feels so proud of their efforts and knows that they helped and maybe even saved their friends. "You guys. We really did it."
Tetsutetsu smiles back. "Hell ya! We took out the punk bastard and his bitch."
"Speaking of which; where'd it go?" Kendo scans the now clear forest clearing for it, but Chainjaw is nowhere in sight.
"It fell this way, didn't it?" Tetsutetsu looks around, wandering over to where he thinks it fell.
Meanwhile, Shinso searches on his own and soon comes upon the spot where it initially collapsed. But there's no Nomu instead there's a set of large tracks retreating back into the woods with a large tail print trailing behind each clawed step.
And unfortunately, a terrifying truth sinks in; they may have stopped the Gas but this horror show is far from over.
Humungousaur crashes through the woods, rushing along as quickly as he can despite his size and weight. 'KACCHAN AND TODOROKI WENT SECOND IN THE TEST OF COURAGE. IF THEY DIDN'T GO BACK TO CAMP YET, THEN THEY MIGHT STILL BE AROUND HERE.'
Hopefully he can find them and then run into Uraraka and Tsuyu on the path back to the lodge since they'd be closer to there anyway.
*BEEP. BEEP. BEEP.*
In a flash of red, Izuku stumbles forward as he nearly falls over into the brush.
'What?! Now?! Must have already been ten minutes. Damn. I thought I had more time. Huh?'
From the front a slithering dark mass lashes out at him.
Sensing the danger, Izuku tries to run but the pain in his broken arm sends a shock of pain up his system. The pain is too much, forcing him to freeze in place and unable to react as the massive shadow comes crashing down upon him.
But a set of strong warm hands snatch him right out of the way just as the mass smashes into the spot he was just occupying.
Confused, Izuku slowly peels open his eyes to find himself wrapped up in Mezo Shoji's arms and pressed against his back like a backpack. "Shoji! What happened?" He instantly notices that one of Shoji's limbs is bleeding profusely from the tip.
Shoji's out of breath and Izuku can feel that he's covered in sweat, no doubt he's been running away from some villain or other.
But whatever the case Shoji's just glad he was able to save Midoriya just in time. "With those injuries…you should be laid up in bed recovering. But you wanna save your friends. No matter what the cost."
"Am I really becoming that predictable?" Izuku half-jokes, half-sighs. "Besides you're injured, too."
"Yes. We were ambushed by villains, and I covered us. But the attack triggered Tokoyami's Quirk, even though he was desperately trying to hold it back."
Izuku freezes as he thinks back to what Tokoyami had told him back during the Sports Festival: "'My Quirk's offensive ability gets stronger when I'm in darkness. But that makes Dark Shadow aggressive and difficult to control.'"
"No… Don't tell me!"
Shoji hates to admit it but it's true. "Yeah. If we wanna get through here," he turns them both towards the looming darkness of the forest and states the obvious. "we'll have to face Dark Shadow first."
"RAAAAAA!" Dark Shadow lets out a booming roar. Its entire mass has expanded, becoming a terrifying monster like that of a cross between a raven and a kraken with massive shadow claws and tendrils thrashing about. All the while keeping a desperate Tokoyami himself as its core.
Fumikage Tokoyami spots his classmates and panic quickly sets in as he struggles for control. "Stay away…from me! You'll die!"
"Tokoyami, no!"
"RAAAAAA!"
To be continued…
Again, Happy New Year everyone! Hope you have fun and stay safe out there. And I hope this was a good chapter to end the year on. I liked it. Gave Shinso some time to shine and finally got to start showing how things are changing in this version: the mutant bats, SevenSeven, Mustard and the Nomu. And those are only the appetizers. Yeah, you read that right. That's nothing compared to what's really in store for you all.
That being said, I hope we can finally catch up with our favorite gravity girl next time and see what she's been dealing with this entire time. But that being said I think I'll have to cut the next chapter short again. So, it might be a Part 2 type of chapter or something. And it will for sure take 2 weeks to get here at the least. Sorry guys but my schedule does not lend itself well to where I can devote that much time in a week to this story. I do try but it is what it is
*The Chainsaw Nomu or as I like to call him, Chainsaw. Is a Nomu that has been fused with the DNA of an American Alligator.
*Also, I wanna apologize for last chapter. I made a mistake with Magne. I felt unconfident about calling them a "she" and when I looked it up on the MHA wiki it referred to them as a "he." And not until after did I do more research and others helping to point it out that I made a mistake. And so hence forth Magne 's pronouns will be "She/her."
And yes, I am aware Thirteen is a girl too, but I am keeping the pronouns "they/them" for them. Since when I started this story, their gender had yet to be revealed and as thus I am saying that for this story those are their preferred pronouns.

Responses for "Guest" reviewers from Ch.71:
Atom king: I have no words this chapter is incredibly awesome with Izuku unlock Humungousaur DNA was really unexpected but I love it, especially the beat down that humungousaur gave Muscular he's just lucky Izuku didn't unlocked waybig that would have gave him the fear of God.
I can't wait for everyone reactions when seeing humungousaur arriving to fight the villains with Kota riding on his shoulder like moon girl and devil dinosaur from marvel comics or DC comics Jurassic League.
Guardian-Sigil: Let's be real if Way Big did show up then this arc would be over already. But either way Muscular won't be forgetting this any time soon. Sorry you couldn't get your Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur moment. But perhaps one day ;)
I do actually have a brilliant idea to bring in Devil Dinosaur…sort-of. It'll happen in the spin-off I eventually will want to do
Shark: Man that was a good fight. I was not expecting Humungasour to show, but hey I'm not complaining. He's like one of the most underrated aliens in Ben 10 alien force. I do wonder how Vilgax and All for One will deal with each other. Vilgax doesn't really care what happens with earth so I don't think he'll try to double cross AfO. AfO is a power hungry maniac so I could see him trying to get one over on Vilgax. But this was a great chapter can't wait for the next one!
Guardian-Sigil: Glad you liked it. Hope you enjoy what else I have in store
MoarCheese: WHOOOO! YEAH BABY! THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL BEEN ABOUT!
C'mon peeps let's hear you all say it: HUMUNGOUSAUR!
Ah he's a fan favourite, hope you enjoy buzzing caus I can imagine your inboxes will be filled with thank you's for adding this magnificent alien to the ever growing roster.
After all this you deserve a well rest. Gaddam! Muscular is no joke, dude just shrugged off a base Humungousaur punch. But so motherclucking glad we didn't have to wait another 2-4 weeks just to see a movement in the plot (cough cough Chapter 65) JK JK my bad, I know you had very important life shit so I don't blame you.
So Glad you're (I assume) doing better, if pokemon is delaying your work but keeping you happy, I say go for it. Burnout equals bad. So take all the time. Now I just wnat to see the class react to Deku's new form, but they seem to be busy handling SevenSeven so that may be a while.
Thanks again for a fresh new chapter, happy belated Bday to this story and merry Krismast!
Guardian-Sigil: Oh yeah my inbox was flooded. And yeah I know it takes a while but like you said life happens so I can only go as fast as life allows me to.
In any case I am doing a lot better. Thanks
Guest: If heroes and villains think Deku's playlist is OP, wait till they get a load of the Ultimatrix and Nemetrix.
Guardian-Sigil: Well we'll see if I do give Izuku the Ultimatrix. That said we will for sure get the Nemetrix (I mean I already started hinting to it anyway)
Guest: If Big Chill were the alien chosen he would have ended the fight quicker and more efficiently as freeze injury on muscle fiber cells (which is the bulk of Muscular's quirk) results in them being destroyed not only that but also all of the mononuclear cells in the zone of injury.
It will cause the muscle fibre cells to inflame and degenerate, it also impairs healing so that means his Quirk even if healed would not function as properly and may leave large Scar tissue.
Guardian-Sigil: Cool but that's not as cool as a fight. Heck it's not a fight at all. Plus Izuku couldn't choose Big Chill. Yes he chose Wildmutt but that was so he can track Kota, he didn't presume he'd be fighting. And then the Omnitrix forced him to change into Humungousaur so Big Chill was never really an open option for him
Guest: RIP Dwayne McDuffie, thank you for giving us our favourite Dino Boy of this series. Happy 3rd Birthday Heroes Never Die!
Guardian-Sigil: Thank you!
Guest: All we need now is Swampfire.. And Chromastone... And Echo Echo... And Goop... And Clockwork... And Way Big... And NRG... And Armodrillo... And Alien X... And I'll shut up now...
Ampfibian, Spidermonkey, Brainstorm, Nanomech, Monster Trio, Whampire, Spitter, Arctiguana, Chamalien, Eatle, Jury Rigg, Gravattack, Crashhopper, Kickin Hawk, Ball Weavil, Toepick, Pesky Dust, Gutrot and Good Night Folks!
Guardian-Sigil: In time. They will all appear in time.
Grimm: Thank you very much for answering my previous question, I really appreciate it and you made my day :3
I loved the episode, it was epic to see Humungousaur in action against muscular, I thought to see him against gigantomachia because they look alike, but I'm not complaining, it's still nice to see
small opinion: it would be cool to see chromastone neutralizing 's quirk due to energy manipulation, his reaction would be funny
Guardian-Sigil: You're welcome. And hey, maybe Humungousaur and Gigantomachia will fight one day. Never say never. Also I still have no idea who you are talking about, I know you tried 3 times but it never got through.
Jury Lobster: Definitely lived up to the hype
Humgosaur now Dekus physically strongest alien (for now) has joined the arsenal
Guardian-Sigil: Glad it did.
DeadCool14: HUMUNGOUSAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUR!
That's from Duped
Also don't forget the "mock" line
Yeah, sorry, I went a overboard XD
And sorry if I annoyed you about the Upchuck thing. I understand and respect that you don't wanna, so I just wanted to ask how you felt about the thing in general cuz I was curious
That fight was so damn cool, I loved it so much! Just pure brute force and strength; I honestly never thought of the damage transfer going both ways, it's cool that you did
When Deku gets Swampfire would he turn into him often to help heal his wounds?
I can understand giving Brainstorm mind reading power, he does kinda have those kinda powers already since he talks without opening his mouth, kinda like Mandalay's Quirk
Having Star and Stripes' middle name be Gwen would be a neat reference, specially since it's been theorized that Gwen's middle name is Catherine, which is similar to Cathleen
You don't have to read 5YL to know about their versions of Saiyans and stuff, it's an And Beyond episode, didn't you say that you watched those? I'm confused XD
Yeah, like, someone comes to kill Deku and chokes him out as Shocksquatch, and after he leaves Shocksquatch instinctly jump starts his heart with his electricity. Mostly to reference One Piece, cuz Enel did that and I thought it was really cool
Speaking of which, would Kickin' Hawk use some of Sanji's moves?
Yeah, Incurseans have a weakness to very strong smells, in XBen2 they couldn't handle the smell of Swampfire and burning rubber when they shot Kevin in his rubber form
No, I meant that there is an episode of Ultimate Alien called "Videogames" where a robot called The Stalker shows up, and it can counter most of Ben's aliens.
Oh and MorOtesi isn't Chromastone's canon homeworld, it was just made up for the game Vlgax Attacks if you were wondering
What do you think Omni Energy is? I think it's a unique kind of energy that can be found in every type of DNA
Will there be a timeskip later on? Because we're in the final arc in the manga right now and they're still first years, and if we add the time spent with Ben 10 storylines which take place in the span of a few months in canon, I assume that they'd become Class 2-A at somepoint
Would Eye Guy be more resistant to blunt force attacks, since his body is made of stretchy and rubbery cartilage?
When Deku gets his more powerful aliens like Way Big, Clockwork, Atomix and Alien X, will he keep them a secret from others? Well, as much as he can that is
Aliens Eri would name: Bloxx, Ball Weevil and NRG
Would Jetray be able to go into hyper speed? Because to me, that should be more like an Ultimate ability, or something that only adult Aerophibians can do, with the help of special equipment
Guardian-Sigil: Happy to hear you liked the brutal fight. And yes the injury transfer works both ways. I mean if Ben can get sick and then so can his aliens then why can't injuries work the same way?
Deku turns into Swampfire to heal wounds? Maybe. Probably.
I did watch the And Beyond videos but not all of them. I ignored the ones about Sayans because I have no interest in Dragon Ball. Sorry
On that note i tried to watch One Piece but the filler episodes turned me away so i never finished season 3
Omni Energy is a mcguffin to explain what powers the Omnitrix
I have no plans for a time skip at this time. I am considering it but no promises
No I would say Eye Guy is more susceptible to physical attacks because, well, he's covered in sensitive eyes
As for Deku's more powerful aliens you will have to wait and see how I handle that later
Yes, Jetray would be able to go through hyperspace
Jakesurfboy: Definitely worth the wait, we all expected this fight was when Izuku would unlock Humungosaur and this was put together perfectly. The fact that you put Humungosaurs 60 feet tall form as well to finish off muscular was very nice and now I can't wait to see how the rest of the attack on the camp goes and see what's the same and what's different.
Guardian-Sigil: I'll be honest although I have more fights planned I don't think much is gonna top that Humungousaur vs. Muscular fight. I mean i like what I have planned but I might have peaked too soon there
Wendy: IZUKU, you have Wildvine, and he is able to regenerate, transform into him and let his healing factor fix you (It's your story and you can do whatever you want and I know you like the power struggle, but let's see, Izuku is smarter than Ben, he's more strategic, even taking into account the situation he's in, either due to stress or adrenaline, there is no logical reason why izuku would forget that he has Wildvine or why it would not occur to him that if the injuries he has when he is a human are passed to when he is an alien, this could work backwards, whatever happens to him when he is an alien transfers to his human form, Wildvine can heal him, If you don't want to do that, it's fine, don't do it, but at least do the running gag of the Ben 10 franchise, which you've already done a few times, which is that ben/izuku asks for one thing and receives another, I am not saying that there is no logical explanation for it not to work, the truth is that it could not work, I am only saying that there is no logical explanation for izuku not to come up with the idea)
Guardian-Sigil: Oh I do plan on using that little fact for sure. Not now during this arc obviously but he will down the line straight up transform into Wildvine or another alien that can regenerate just to fix himself back to normal.
But for now, as you've sort of seen in this chapter the circumstances of the events will prevent that from happening. Heck he'll probably try to do that only for, like you said, the Omnitrix to give him the wrong thing
Dreadbot: This chapter was awesome I really like the fight between deku and muscular I like how we got humongous sore and how in the end he just turned 60 ft and smashed him into other Extinction I really can't wait to see what you do next please keep writing
Guardian-Sigil: I can't wait to see what i do next either! Things are only gonna get crazier and crazier from here so look out!
Number: Si!, sabía que volverías, dijeron que me había vuelto loco pero aquí estás...
Increíble 3 años de historia y se ve que esto da para mucho más...
Guardian-Sigil: Those of little faith. I wasn't gone for that long. I mean I gave updates in the side story "Heroes never Die; It's Hero Time, Anytime"
Shifter: If aliens are revealed, will overhaul assist in the forever knights purge. It's revealed that before m le was born her dad was killed by the forever knights. And when izuku is fighting the forever knight protecting some aliens and is about to be killed a bunch of civilians come to izuku and the aliens he's protecting defense in a scene similar to amphibia toad tax and the first Spider-Man movie if you know what I mean.
Guardian-Sigil: I do know what you mean. But I cannot say anything out right because it'd give waaaaaay too much away. Thank you for your interest however
Guest: YEAHHH HUMUNGOUSAUR BABY. Hopefully he won't become a… jobber
Guardian-Sigil: Not sure what that means but YEAAAH HUMUNGOUSAUR! WOOOOOO!
Omega Dragon: Since Hisashi has enemies in space does he have any enemies on earth? like those that can control fire I can think of 3 that have fought Hisashi before he left Jack O'Lantern(Marvel) Cinder Fall(RWBY) Feitan (Hunter x Hunter) I just thought that it be cool to have some characters who use fire to fought agents Hisashi because he has to at least has to these villains would probably want to see it there fire can go against Hisashi's.
Guardian-Sigil: Yes, Hisashi does have enemies in space. And yes he has enemies on Earth too. I actually want to incorporate at least one of them eventually but I'm gonna wait till after Izuku has his pro hero license. Actually that villain we've "technically" seen in this story already. Any guesses on who it might be?
BlueRanger-Lyric: Wow, so this is what you meant when you said that you had big plans for Humungousaur, and wow, that fight was definitely worth the wait, I love how you handled the fight between them and even given Izuku a handicap in the fight, and yeah, Muscular stood no chance when Humungousaur got even bigger, now I'm wondering if Kota will be the one to give Humungousaur his name, because I would be down for that, though I'm also wondering what will happen with Shinso joining the fight against Mustard, as well as Iida and the others having to deal with Sevenseven on top of Spinner and Magen, and what are those strange things with Dabi when he attacks Aizawa, and I'm genuinely curious if both Bakugo and Deku get taken by the villains at the end of all this, so Vilgax can have his moment with him to "Try" and remove the Omnitrix from him, and I'm also wondering if Bakugo will be given hints about Aliens and if "Kevin" will start filling Bakugo's head with thoughts of the Midoria's being liars and that Izuku is not telling him things and that theirs to Izuku's power and knowledge then he knows, to maybe be the catalyst to Bakugo fighting Izuku for answers to those questions, leading him to learn about Aliens and that Izuku's "Querk" is actually the watch, and what if Izuku being taken is All Might's chances to finally redeem himself to Izuku by saving him from Vilgax's grip, even if it means sacrificing One For All, leading Izuku to finally forgive him for everything, so please take your time with your story, don't rush it, and make it the best it can be, okay buddy?
Guardian-Sigil: Well you guessed it Kota gave Humungousaur his name. Been saving that little moment for three years too.
Since you enjoyed Humungousaur's debut so much how did you enjoy the other battles? Specifically, Shinso vs. Mustard and Chainjaw?
Oh and then you have Dr. Animo's mutant bats.
Anyway I hope you liked the chapter. There is still much more to come
BlueRanger-Lyric (again): Hey, I just remembered a funny line you could give Izuku when he transforms into the wrong alien again, along the lines of "If your gonna give the wrong guy all the time, why do you even have a dial?!" I really hope you use that line someday
Guardian-Sigil: I will
Metal Lizard: Any Villains that Deku and his friends could fight later on?
Doctor Octopus-Marvel
Kano- Mortal-Kombat
Battle Beast-Invincible
Poison Ivy-DC
Shredder-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Hisoka- Hunter x Hunter
each one is deadly as the last who also is willing to do want it takes to win
Guardian-Sigil: Thanks for the suggestions. I may use them as cameos/easter eggs at the least. I do have a lot of MHA and Ben Ten villains I still need to incorporate first. That said I do have an idea for Kano…well more like I've had this idea of using part of his story for another character/villain. Not gonna say who yet, can't give away too many spoilers.
I'm Hellboy: So I gotta ask's will there be a villain Deku were like a alter world were he became a villain instead of a hero? and Deku will have to figth his villain self and different name's for villain Deku's alien's I have some in mind some are mad up some are mix with others and some are from the new Ben 10 and I'll name nine since Deku had nine to begin with
Four Arms-Quad Smack
Heatblast-Inferno
Waterhazard-Waterflow
XLR8-Rush
Diamondhead-Crystalfist
Humungousaur-Goliathsaur
Grey Matter-Dark Matter
Stinkfly-Shunkbug
Ampfibian-Electrictron
there are the nine names and Deku would be working for the League of Villains.
Guardian-Sigil: Perhaps I plan to do a spin-off where all the time travel stuff happens. There's more infor in my "Special Announcements" chapter
Guest: I thought of a great way you can introduce ship. You should have Deku and Mirio take Eri to the amusements park when ship shows up to get Deku's help. I think it would be a great way to reveal aliens to Mirio and Eri while also helping Eri come out of her shell.
Guardian-Sigil: Not gonna lie…this is brilliant and oh so wholesome. I was gonna save Ship for someone else but then I remembered "wait, Ship runs off at the end of this episode" so it's perfect! I can introduce Ship, he can then run off, and then come back later and be with the person I wanted him to match up with from the beginning! Brilliant! Especially since I wasn't 100% how to introduce him. I love this idea and I hope to use it when the time eventually comes
Swindle: Can I give two suggestions.
1. This is tokoyami telling something that happens during the summer, he and his mother are dealing with an escapee Cletus kasady aka carnage and his symbiote are his quirk and while he is not a good person he has a sympathetic backstory where as a child he was nearly beaten by a mob for having a villainous quirk and fought back killing several of them and was arrested by tezuka's boss captain putty from chip and dales movie and was put into isolation with no other contact but his quirk and escaped going on a rampage with tokoyami and tezuka teaming up with hawks to battle him and on the sidelines captain putty orders a kill strike on tokoyami, carnage, and hawks for payback costing him a promotion and tezuka is horrified by the lengths he is willing to go to and realizes this is the person she could turn into if she continued her grudge against hishashi and in the carnage is detained, putty loses his job, and tokoyami is given an offer for an internship.
2. How after mustard is defeated he is detained at u.a and gets character development and becomes the new member for class 2A.
Guardian-Sigil: 1. Not bad. Not sure I wanna do all that. I'd have to check and make sure it doesn't break too much continuity. At the most for now I can make this a quick reference later on since I feel like the best place to mention this would have been when they were all on the bus talking about their summers. If I do give this an OVA one day it won't be until I finish Kamino Ward. I really need to focus on this arc so I'm not gonna do any OVAs for a while. But when I do OVAs again i will sit down and consider this one
2. I do have (fun) plans for Mustard as it is so he will not be joining UA
Magneton: Will you have muscular, moon fish, magne, and mustar have larger roles. Like for example muscular could have a rivalry with bakugo and is revealed to be mitsuki's older brother which would make him bakugos uncle. Also please spare magne from overhaul.
Guardian-Sigil: Most of the characters will face the similar fate. Haven't decided anything on Magne yet. But I do have plans for some of these villains later much that should be a lot of fun. Might be too ambitious but I wanna do it
Dinobot: So with the One Dinosaur that will be coming later will there be Dinosaurs Villains that will also be added later on? like Sauron and Stegron? who are both from Marvel and maybe some other Dinosaur characters that can also appear Zog-Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Dinosaurus- Invincible
Old Lace-Marvel Riptor-Killer Instinct Toro-Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous Iris-Overlord and if I had to choose with a Dinosaur that would be good to watch Eri it would be Old Lace because she is very protective and Old Lace would attack any villains to keep her safe.
Guardian-Sigil: So I did consider Saoron as a cameo or something. And the Zogs from TMNT were definitely gonna get cameos at some point along with their other alien enemies and allies. In anycase I have plans for one dinosaur and one dinosaur only. Don't wanna go too overboard here. Just trust that I have plans for Devil Dinosaur and leave it at that
Guest: Man 3 years since you made this story and you about to reach 4000 reviews end of the year I hope one day someone either make comic or animated video for this story, keep up the good work man for next year
Guardian-Sigil: That would be amazing. Wouldn't it? Thank you!
O'KevinsKar: Can I ask that you have Inspector Tezuka join in on the hunt on this story's Michael Morningstar. I think that episode and villain would make for a great "Crime Mystery" chapter especially with Morningstar possibly seducing either Ochako or Mina
Guardian-Sigil: I do have ideas for Morningstar but it will most likely not play out how you think it will
katha: hey, do you remember or even know a series called Chaotic, it aired in 2006-2010, well if that's the case, I think it could be considered an alien-related series, how about a reference to that, how about a cameo of Maxxor, Takinom, Grook, Tianne or some other creature? That would be awesome.
Guardian-Sigil: Yes I do remember that series. I never got into it. I bought one card pack and never did anything with it. But I would count it as alien so why not given them a reference?
Side note there are rumors about Chaotic (both show and game0 getting a reboot
DeadCool14 (again): Remember, Humungousaur can also shrink, only down to ten feet tho
Will Deku and Bakugou find out about Tsubasa? The kid with the wings
Remember in RAT Eon said that the 10 minute time limit is to prevent the alien DNA from overwhelming Ben? But that doesn't make much sense, because otherwise why does the Master Control exist?
Well, I think that the time limit is to help the user adapt to the DNA with the Omni-Energy until they're ready to use the Master Control, which would explain the shorter recharge time and the charge being based on energy instead of time after it recalibrates
What characters are you excited to introduce in the story? For me it's Exo-Skull and Subdora; they would fit so well in this universe, Exo-Skull is a guy with a rhino mutation Quirk who was turned into a cyborg and Subdora could just be half-human instead of just being a female Merlinisapien that just so happens have the body shape of a curvy human female. I mean seriously, why do all women in OV look like that? Yeah it shows they're female but there are like a hundred different ways to do that without resulting in sexy dimorphism
Can you do that scene from Shang-Chi where the Mandarin calls that old guy 'young man'? I can totally see Azmuth and Gran Torino in that scenario
What do you think Nana Shimura's hero name was? I good theory I found was that it was Maverick, like from Top Gun, y'know cuz she was friends with Gran Torino
Does Deku still wear the hoodie Ochako gave him for his hero costume or does he have several copies and has the real one at home? To keep it safe
Can Wildvine's seed bombs grow vines? It's in the Tv Tropes page but I don't remember if it happened in the story
Would Eye Guy use his ears more? Cuz those things on his head instead of eyes are ears, and while they are of great help the eyes are also a big weakness, so if he's ever blinded he could rely on those more, which I imagine help him hear better than a regular human
Guardian-Sigil: Dude, you don't need to remind me that Humungousaur can shrink to ten feet…because that's literally pointless. Why shrink down 2 more feet? What's the purpose at that point? I'm chalking that up to inconsistencies within the Ben Ten show
No, Deku and Bakugou will not find out about Tsubasa. That was never gonna go anywhere
I'm excited to introduce…Kyhber? IDK. I kinda introduced everyone I've wanted to and the others I'm not exactly dying to get to
Yeah I can see Azimuth saying that. But again there's no point in brining up anything about Azimuth since it's literally gonna be a long ass time before I get close to introducing him
I never thought about Nana Shimura's hero name. Could have been anything like Jetstream, Top Gun, Slipstream, Super Woman, Wonder Woman, etc.
Yes, Deku is always wearing the same exact hoodie. Heck last chapter I wrote "he pulls the hood up over his face"
Wildvine can make vines grow from his hands I was not gonna have him do that with the seed pods
I had no plans for Eye Guy to rely that heavily on his ears
Guest: You are a creative writing genius. I cannot wait for the next chapter!
Guardian-Sigil: Thank you, that really means a lot
Grimm (again): Hey I have a suggestion, if you don't know what to do with the freak's show and clancy (especially this one) I would join the league of villains since they are low-ranking villains, and ask what would you call the darkstar quirk, I was thinking " the void" he is already a being he needs to be satisfied
PS: in the previous comment I meant that chromastone neutralized mr compress's quirk, it already destabilizes the energy of his quirk
Guardian-Sigil: So just adding villains to the LoV is not exactly a good idea because then I have ten times more characters to balance the story with and it becomes harder. Gotta make sacrifices somewhere. Plus I have alternate ideas for them already. And as for Darkstar I got plans for him too. But thank you for sharing
OOOOOh, Mr. Compress's Quirk. Does that use light energy though? Like lasers and so forth?
Omar: Hey pal, I have something for you, there is an arcade game called "My Hero Academia: Clash! Heroes Battle", in it there is an original villain team called the "Volcano Thieves", which I think you can deduce is a group of villains with heat quirks, I wanted to recommend them for the Road Trip Arc to do a chapter with Endeavor, but I didn't have much free time on those dates, and when I had time and checked, the chapter with Endeavor came out and the whole arc was already over...so bad luck, but if you still find any use for them, well happy to help.
Guardian-Sigil: I know about the game already and I know about the characters you're talking about. And I do already have plans to use…some of them. Not gonna say what does are but it will be a long time from now. Sorry
Guest: Joder, esta es una de las mejores historias que eh visto en mi vida, sos un grande.
Además, incluso si no entiendes lo que digo, ¿harás una versión propia de el secreto del omnitrix y all aliens destroyed?
Guardian-Sigil: Thank you
And yes I will be making my own version of those movies/events
Guest: Oye recuerdo que hay un capitulo donde los aliens de ben escapan del omnitrix... eso pasara con izuku por que si es asi que los aliens que escapen sean. Hellblaster... ratf... diamante... cuatro brazos y amenasa aciatica.
Otra cosa cuando izuku se conbierta por primera ves en alien X que desde la perspetiba de los demas izuku se desintegra en energia y su cuerpo se recostrulle asta formar el cuerpo sel celestial... y que sea en un perios no nuy lejano para que izuku cobosca al alien... algo asi como dr manhathan
Ochaco sera la responsable de desbloquear a grabatac verdad...?
.
Me alegro que no ayas olbidado la abilidad de hunmungosaurio de creser.. no entiendo como lo olbidaron los creadores de la serie...
Lida conosio a sevenseven... sigo pensando que la rasa alien de ese villano deberia usar un traductor por que no se lo que dise... yo vivo en mexico y apenas se escribir ingles crees que puesdas poner un texto en negritas en sevenseven donde se entiende lo que dise... por que realmente quiero saver que esta diciendo...
Abra un cap de izuku 100000.. o sera como el de supremacia donde este izuku yano nesesita transformarse para aseder alos poderes alienigenas... o podria ser anbosde diferentes realidades cuando izuku biaje por el multiverso... onimo una mensio a ese izuku
Siento que algunos aliens de izuku estan muy nerfeados o izuku aun so sabe manejer muy bien su poder por ejenplo espero que izuku explote todo el poder de gravatac añ inicio sin limitantes.
Otra cosa espero que vilgax este a todo de su fuerza con su capacidad de disparar laseres de los ojos tentaculos escudos de energia y bobbas desdes sus muñecas... ano espera ese poder lo tiene en el futuro de ben 10.000
Me pregu do si la criatura que los villanos resivieron era un depredador alien... talves el depredador de gran escalofrio... o el de insectoide... o talves de de hellblas
Guardian-Sigil: I have no current plans to have the aliens escape. I will be reconsidering and replanning the story after Kamino Ward so I'll probably consider it then
Now I can't answer everything because I either don;t have an answer yet or I don't want to give away spoilers.
In anycase, let's talk about SevenSeven. I will not be giving him a translator. Sorry but it's more fun to figure out what he's saying. And I am aware not everyone can figure that out, which is why he will NEVER say anything important or relevant to the plot. The idea is that you can see that he said something (even if you don't understand it) and move on without missing anything.
Also you have the internet, you have Google, you can just look up a word scrambler like Word Finder. There you can Copy & Paste word for word what Seven Seven is saying and let the internet figure it out for you. That said if more people speak up about this then i will consider putting the tranlations at the end of the chapter but I rather you all figure it out on your own (makes less work for me, to be honest)
Trust me it's more rewarding when you guys figure it out on your own rather than me telling you outright what he said
Also if you want more info on Deku 9,000 or other time travel stuff then go back and read the "Special Announcements" chapter because that will explain everything
And just to nip this in the butt. Yes the aliens in this universe have been nerfed, altered, reworked to fit the setting, story, and themes
And no the "creature" that the villains encountered and was in that coffin was not a Predator. But don't feel bad I think literally only one person was able to guess what it was correctly
Guest: Que aparoencia tiene choper cres que puedan aser un dibujo de el
Guardian-Sigil: No drawing, because Chopper is not an OC. He already exists in the media. Look up "Chopper from Star Wars: Rebels" and you will get your answer. Heck to make things cooler go visit this story's TV Tropes page. Google it and you will find a list of all the characters in this story, including Chopper
