Tokoyami: "Shouji, Yagi... everyone... I'm completely sorry for losing control and going on a rampage earlier. I was too immature... I let my anger take over and released Dark Shadow... The influence of the darkness and my anger spurred on you guys. In the end, it got so strong that I couldn't hold it back and ended up hurting Shoji."

He said, his hands shaking as he tried to catch his breath.

Shouji: "We can leave that for later. That's what you would say, right?"

Metal bat: "Yer lucky I didn' kill ya' kid" he said with a cocky grin as he offered his hand to Tokoyami.

Note: basically, metal bat knocks dark shadow so hard that he ends up being shy so he hides in Tokoyami and stops his rampage.

Izumi: "Oh, right! One of the villains the villains' targets is Kacchan."

Tokoyami: "Bakugo?"

Metal bat: "Are they tryna' to kill him? Why?"

Izumi: "I don't know. Anyway, I think the camp is the safest place since there are two pros, Vlad King and Mr. Aizawa, there. There is also Mirko and watchdog man there, right metal bat?" she asked.

Metal bat: "nah they went deep towards the forest to find that hero hunter jackass. Pretty sure he's cooked at this point."

Bakugo: "Wait... he's here?!" he asked in Suprise. "But why?!"

Metal bat: "For all we know, he's with the league and since Aizawa called the hero association for help, they sent 2 S-class heroes to capture and eliminate the hero hunter."

Izumi's eyes widened: "W-What... what do you mean e-eliminate?!"

Shoto: "Don't tell me..."

Bakugo: "..."

Metal bat: "We're only here to capture him, the association will have to make the final decision." he said in a neutral tone.

Izumi: "YOU CAN'T!!"

Metal bat: "hmm? And why is that?" he asked in a suspious tone.

Shoto: "Can't you just bring him to the police or something?" in asked in a worried tone.

Metal: "That only happens if the association doesn't get him first... say... why do ya kids look worried? Are y'all friends with him or... you know what... never mind. Let's get ya kids to the camp."

With that they all made their move and continued to escort Bakugo safely towards the camp facility.

Meanwhile

Izuku was walking through the forest looking beat up and injured. Clearly, he had lost to the S class hero.

Izuku POV: "I never thought he'd be the one to beat me. His speed and power were way stronger and advanced than Mirko. It was far more than I'd bargained for. I was lucky just to get away. Martial arts designed for human opponents were a poor match against his four-legged fighting style." He thought as he walked slowly while holding his gut in pain.

Izuku: "Tch... I need to find a place to rest and recover," he muttered under his breath, scanning his surroundings for any sign of shelter. His body ached with every step, and the blood from his injuries stained his clothes.

snap*

Izuku: "Huh? Who's there?!" he said with high alert.

???: "Well, well well... would you look at that... the famous hero hunter Infront of me yet again."

Izuku: "Tsk... You again." he scoffed. "So, you're the guy the monster association sent?"
Pheonix man: "Happy to see me? Very well. Now I'm only here to bring you back to all for one after this whole childish operation ends.

Izuku: "And what if I say no..."

Back with Izumi and the others.
Izumi: "Ochaco!" she said, running towards her to look at her injuries.

Todoroki: "Who was that woman just now?" He asked in confusion.

Tsu: "A villain. A crazy one."

Izumi: "ochaco you're injured!" she asked, worried.

Uraraka: "It's fine. I can still totally walk." she smiled.

Shouji: "This isn't the time to stand around and talk. Let's go, quickly."

Izumi: "Anyway, I'm just glad you're okay. I know! Come with us! Right now, we're protecting Kacchan as we head back to camp. Metal bat is with us too"

Tsu: "Ribbit? You're protecting Bakugo? Metal bat with you too? Then where are they?"

Izumi: "Huh?! What are you saying? They are right behind..."

She said as she looked back to point at them but to her shock, they weren't there. Suddenly, a masked villain appears on a tree branch.

Mr. Compress: "The people that you're talking about... I took them with my magic while they were off guard. This talent isn't someone who should be on the hero side. We'll take him to a stage where he can shine more."

Izumi: "Give him back!" she yelled.

Mr. Compress: "Give him back? That's a strange thing to say. Bakugo doesn't belong to anyone. He's his own person, you egoist."

Izumi: "Give Them BACK!!"

Todoroki: "Move!"

He yelled as he stomped his feet to try to freeze the villain, but Mr. Compress dodged it by jumping from one tree to another.

Mr. Compress: "We simply want to show him that the path he's on now with its fanatical
values is not the only path he can take. Kids these days are made to choose
their paths based on their values.

Shouji: "It's not just Bakugo! Tokoyami's not here, either!" he yelled

Todoroki: "To go out of your way to talk to us... You're underestimating us." he said to the masked villain.

Mr. Compress: "I was originally an entertainer, you know. It's a bad habit of mine. Taking Tokoyami was an improvisation on my part. Since he was next the S-class hero metal bat, I had to take out the witnesses."

Izumi: "You bastard! Don't you dare take them!" She yelled in anger as she created a tornado to get him to which compress dodged swiftly.

Todoroki: "Uraraka, take this guy."

Uraraka: "Right!"

Shoto gives Kosei to Uraraka and tries to freeze the villain with a massive Giant Ice Wall attack. The masked villain manages to avoid the ice and decides it's time to retreat.

Mr. Compress: "Sorry, tricks and running away are my only redeeming features! There's no way I'd fight students who are hero candidates."

He radios the Vanguard Action Squad and tells them to meet at the rendezvous point.

Mr. Compress: "Vanguard Action Squad! Target successfully collected! It was just a short while, but with this, our show has come to a close! As arranged, head to the retrieval point in the next five minutes!" he said to the radio as he jumped from one ice to another.

Todoroki: "Come to a close"...? He asked confused

Izumi: "NO!!"

Todoroki: "I won't let you! I won't let you get away!"

Meanwhile in another part of the forest Awase is carrying an injured Momo with him while running away from the Vanguard Action Squad's Nomu. The Nomu cuts several trees down with its multiple weapon arms consisting of chainsaws, drills, and hammers to get to

Awase: "This is bad! This is really bad! This guy's really bad news! Yaoyorozu are you alive?! Hey! Please, run! It's gonna catch up!" he said while running for their lives.

Yaoyorozu: "I'm sorry... Awase...! I'm... I'm fine...!" she replied breathlessly.

Yaoyorozu POV: "When I came to, I was on the ground. I had no idea what had happened to me...

Awase: "Crap! Damn it!"

The Nomu manages to reach Awase and is about to attack them with a chainsaw. Giving himself up for dead, Awase tries to protect Momo with his own body. But before the Nomu eviscerated them both, the monsters suddenly stops the attack, retracts its weapon arms into its body and begins to walk away through the forest.

Awase: "What...? Why is it leaving...?"

Yaoyorozu POV: "Does this mean it has done its job...? Then, don't tell me... Bakugo! Use your judgment... What would be the worst-case scenario, Momo? And what's the best thing you can do right now?" she thought to herself as she began to create a tracking device.

Yaoyorozu: "Awase, use your Quirk to attach this... to that!" She told him as she handed him the small tracking device.

Awase: "What is this? A button?" he asked confused.

Yaoyorozu: "Just hurry up and do it! It'll get away!"

Awase: "I don't know what's going on, but...!"

Approaching cautiously, Awase uses his Weld Quirk to stick the tracker onto the monster's back. The Nomu doesn't notice this and continues to walk away with Momo's device stuck on it.

Awase: "I attached it, like you asked!"

Yaoyorozu: "Thanks, Awase."

Awase: "Ah, that was too scary... Let's get away!"

Yaoyorozu: "Right." and with that, they both continued to run away.

Meanwhile with the LoV

Toga: "Huh? No one else is here yet?"

Dabi: "You lunatic, did you get the blood?"

Dabi: "How many people's worth?"

Toga: "One person's worth!"

Twice: "Just one?! Weren't you told to get at least three?!"

Toga: "It couldn't be helped. I thought I was going to be killed. Anyways, where is Mr. hero hunter?" she asked with excitement.

Dabi: "hmm... don't really know— never mind he's up there." he pointed at the sky. "Huh? Is that a bird monster?"

In the sky there was phoenix man holding Izuku with his claws as he struggled to get out.

Izuku: "Let me go you bastard!!" he yelled as he tried to move but to no avail.

Phoenix man: "Jeez, is that how you say thank you? You need to work on your manners. We're here now."

He said as he dropped Izuku on the ground and landed Infront of the Lov.

Toga: "Oh, Mr. hero hunter, you're all beat up! How adorable!" she giggled as she skipped towards Izuku.

Izuku: "Get away from me," he growled, trying to stand up despite his injuries.

Dabi: "Looks like you had a rough time. Who did you run into?" he asked, his voice low and taunting.

Izuku: "That damned Watchdog Man. I underestimated him," he admitted reluctantly.

Phoenix Man: "He's an S-Class hero for a reason. You're lucky to be alive."

Twice: "Lucky, unlucky, you're still breathing, aren't you? That's gotta count for something!"

Izuku: "Whatever. What now? All might ain't here..."

Dabi: "Now we... huh?"

Hearing a crunch from above, Dabi looks up, Twice and Himiko following suit, only to find Mr. Compress with Izumi, Shouji and Todoroki on top falling down. Compress and the trio crash-land a dozen feet away from Dabi.

Twice: "Hey, hey, hey, hey! I know these kids! / Who are they?!"

Izuku: "Tsk..."

Izumi: "Izuku..." she said with shocked.

Dabi: "Mister, get out of the way."

Mr. Compress: "Roger!"

Mr. Compress complies and compresses himself into a marble. Dabi throws a wave of fire at the students and manages to burn Mezo and Izuku. Shoto dodges and Twice confronts him.

Todoroki: "Izumi! Shoji!"

Twice: "Faces from Shigaraki's kill list! That little beat-up boy and you! / They weren't, though!"

he said as he tried to attack with his measuring tape. Todoroki counters by keeping Twice back with a wave of ice.

Twice: "That's hot!"

Izuku: "Tsk..." he scoffed as he began to take a stance and attack the students only to be stopped by Pheonix man.

Pheonix man: "Save your energy, you're still injured."

Izumi: "Izuku... why are you with them?" she asked, her voice filled with a mix of confusion and desperation.

Izuku: "It's none of your business," he retorted, his eyes cold and unyielding.

Todoroki: "Izuku, we're here to help. Come back with us," he urged while fighting Twice.

Izuku: "Shoto..." he said with a cold voice.

Phoenix Man: "Sorry, but that's not happening," he said, spreading his wings and preparing for battle.

While they were chit chatting, Mr. Compress reverted to his normal form.

Mr. Compress: "I can't believe you flew so far to chase after me. Your ideas are far out!" he complained as he held his arm in pain.

Dabi: "Where's Bakugo?"

Mr. Compress: "Well, of course." Mr. Compress reached into his pocket to take the three marbles from there but to his shock there were only 2.

Metal Bat: "Lookin' for me ya punk!!"

Mr. Compress: "What?! How did you—" he began, but before he could finish, Metal Bat slammed his bat to his gut as he was launched towards Dabi which he moved right to avoid compress.

Mr. Compress: "Oww... that... f-fuckin'... hurts" he said in pain.

Dabi: "You're annoying," he muttered, sending a wave of blue flames towards Metal Bat.

Metal Bat: "Nice try!" he shouted, using his bat to deflect the flames. "But it's gonna take more than that to stop me!"

Phoenix Man: "I'll handle this," he said, launching himself at Metal Bat to intercept him.

Shouji: "Yagi, Todoroki, we're running away! I'm sure now based on what he just did-- I don't know what your Quirk is, but inside that right pocket of yours that you kept flaunting were these—Tokoyami and Bakugo, right, entertainer?" he said as he showed Compress two blue marbles.

Izumi: "Shouji!" She smiled.

Todoroki: "All right! Good job, Shoji!"

The trio began to run away from the villains back to the Camps but before they could, they were cut off by the sudden appearance of Kurogiri.

Shouji: "Th-This guy..."

Todoroki: "...was at USJ..."

Izumi: "The warp..."

Kurogiri: "It has been five minutes since the signal. Let us go, Dabi." he said as he opened several portals near the villains.

Himiko and Twice both leave through the Warp Gates, but Dabi refused to leave.

Dabi: "Wait. Our goal is not yet--"

Mr. Compress: "Oh, that? They seemed so happy that they rushed out here, so I thought I'd give them a present." he said as he walked near the portal while holding his gut in pain. "It's a habit, one of the basics of magic. When I flaunt something... it's because there's something I don't want you to see."

Then the masked villain reveals that he was hiding the true marbles inside his mouth all along.

Izumi/Todoroki: "N-No way...!"

While they were in shock, Compress snapped his finger and the two marbles Shouji had, were revealed to be Todoroki's Ice.

Todoroki: "My ice?!"

Mr. Compress: "That's right. During the freezing attack, I prepared dummies and put them in my right pocket."

Izumi: "DAMN IT!"

In a last-ditch effort, the trio rushes at the villains to get their friends back. However, before they can reach them, Mr. Compress takes one last bow...

Mr. Compress: "If you discover that what was in my right hand was in my right pocket, then of course you'd rush happily over.

Izumi: "WAIT!!!"

Mr. Compress: "And now, that's all from me--"

Suddenly he received a punch in the face from Watchdog man but unlucky for him, Kurogiri opened a portal which teleported him a away from them.

Watchdog man: "Damn it." he said calmly.

The marbles fall out of Mr. Compress's mouth and the boys rush to catch them. Shouji manages to grab one marble, but Dabi grabs the other marble before Shoto can reach it

Dabi: "That's sad... Shoto... Todoroki..."

Dabi: "Confirm it now. Release this." he said as compress snapped his finger which revealed Tokoyami inside the marble shouji had. Bakugo however remained in Dabi's clutches. "No problem." Izumi rushes to save Bakugo.

Izumi: "Katsuki!!"

Bakugo: "I-Izumi... stay... back."

Meanwhile, Pheonix man grabbed Izuku with his claws and they both flied and escaped from metal bat.

Pheonix man: "Tsk... that was a close one huh."

Izuku: "pathetic..."

Metal bat: "BASTARD!!!" he yelled from the ground as his voice echoed around the forest.

After failing to save Bakugo from the Vanguard Action Squad, Izumi cries out in grief.

Izumi: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" she screamed as she cried her eyes out.

Following the assault, Vlad King called in emergency services to put out the forest fires. Fifteen students were knocked unconscious because of Mustard's poison gas, eleven others received unrelated injuries, thirteen were physically unharmed and one was kidnapped. Pixie-Bob and Mirko were in serious condition and Ragdoll was missing. Muscular, Moonfish, and Mustard were all arrested by the police.
