When the signal to his creators dropped, Hephaestus immediately activated the pit. Hephaestus reviewed the telemetry readings and saw a massive heart rate and adrenaline spike across the board for Mother, Izuku, Melissa, and Momo. As per protocol, Hephaestus ran a diagnostic program, and when the conclusion was reached that the signal was being jammed, he activated Island Protocol.
Nezu was startled by his computer springing to life and a male voice coming over the speakers. "Principal Nezu, this is Hephaestus. Per protocol, I am informing you that all communication with my creators has been lost, and the signal from the USJ is jammed inside the building. I detected increased adrenaline and heart rate just before telemetry was lost. According to the protocol, I am dispatching rescue and combat response, and the conclusion is that the USJ is under attack."
"Are you sure this is not an overreaction?" Nezu is trying to raise the USJ or access the feeds.
"All feeds and connections to the USJ have been severed, I cannot remote in, the backup feed has been wiped as well, and the conclusion is that the USJ is under attack," Hephaestus responded.
"Will you save the other students?" Nezu said quickly.
"Not at the cost of the creators," Hephaestus said. "Orders have been left to prioritize their safety, yet there are orders to rescue innocents. I shall categorize the others as such and will aid in their rescue."
"Thank you," Nezu said. "How quickly before your response reaches them?"
"The Swarm will deploy within the next 4 minutes, the Royal Guard 2 minutes after," Hephaestus said as the speakers went silent.
"What is The Swarm and Royal Guard?" Nezu muttered as he hit the alarm. "Attention, we have a code Orange alert! This is not a drill Code Orange Alert. Primary response team to the USJ! I repeat, this is not a drill Code Orange Alert. Primary response team to the USJ!"
Nezu leaped from over his desk and raced out of his office. The alarm system was activated, and the U.A. staff sprang into action. Nezu hoped, even prayed, that Hephaestus was wrong and that he could have a long talk with the members of Junkyard Support.
Home
Inko was reading over her paper while Hana was on the phone when suddenly, a loud alert blared throughout the home and the Junkyard. The EVA units raced to the women, "This is a priority alert; please move to the bunker."
"Eva, what is going on!" Hana demanded.
"The creators are under attack; the creator's telemetry was cut off," Eva responded, trying to get the women moving. "As this is an unknown threat, we are putting the parents' safety first. The home defenses are now activated, and weapon safety has been lifted. Please move the bunker so we can fulfill our duties."
"But the kids!" Inko yelled.
"Hephaestus is handling their rescue; all protocols are being followed," the girls saw the Wall-E units pulling Daiki from the workshop.
"We do not wish to use physical means to move you to the bunker, but our protocol is clear." The Eva units said in unison.
"We are going to talk with them after this," Hana growled as they evacuated to the bunker.
As the parents entered the bunker, they saw the Giant of the Yard rise; its chest was glowing blue, and its visor appeared over its head. The video feeds sprang to life when the door shut, and all the defenses started to come online. The parents saw gun turrets come out of nowhere; more of the Ravager and Laser Beak models than they were told were also on the premises.
"They are so getting a talking too," Inko said, her voice trembling.
Daiki wrapped his arms over their shoulders as they looked at the cameras; the telemetry readings from the kids were flat. They could only wait.
All-Might
He was in the middle of aiding in rescuing the bridge collapse when his phone suddenly emitted an alert he had never heard, followed by another alarm blaring.
"Alert, the creators, Izuku Midoriya, Mei Hatsume, Momo Yaoyorozu, and Melissa Shield, are under attack by unknown entities at the USJ," the first read.
"Code Orange Alert. Primary response team to the USJ," read the second. The first must be from the kids, and the second must be from the U.A.
All-Might was about to race off when screams called him back; he turned and saw a large section of the bridge about to fall. "Damn it," he muttered as he raced forward and caught it. "Fear not, Citizen, for I am here. Continue moving in an orderly manner towards the other heroes and responders!"
Battle For the USJ
The Front Doors
The man with red eyes had a slim build and pale grey-tinged skin. He wore short black pants that exposed his ankles, a matching long-sleeved V-neck shirt, and red sneakers. Covering his arms and shoulders were what appeared to be hands. A hand was attached to his face, acting as a mask. The wildness of his eyes showed everything the group needed to know.
The other, who seemed responsible for the portals, was a man whose entire body was made out of a dark purple mist, save for his glowing yellow eyes. He wore an exquisite suit with a tie and had a metal brace from around his collarbone to just below his eyes.
Then it was Frankenstein's Monster. It was a giant, black humanoid monster with a very muscular body and many scars. His brain is exposed on the top of his head while his large eyes surround it. He has a beak-like mouth with an array of sharp teeth. It only wore beige pants and metal knee pads designed to emulate skulls. His feet and torso are left bare. The way it moved was what set off their alarm bells; it was almost like it was trying to walk like a person, a monster who wasn't human trying to mimic what a human would move like.
"The guest of honor seems to be missing?" Red Eyes said, smirking at the students. "No matter, I am sure he will show up once we start killing some of these poor unfortunate souls who have deluded themselves with the lie that is Heroes." He stepped forward and opened his arms dramatically. "I am Shigaraki, Leader and Master of the League of Villains. Those who survive this day will know me as the man who killed All-Might. But as he is not here, some of you must suffice to amuse me till then!" Shigaraki snapped his fingers.
More portals began to open as Villains started to flood the plaza.
Izuku was listening, but he had started moving, as did Mei; as they were in the back of the group, they couldn't be seen. Mei was at the terminal, her fingers flying as Izuku threw open the chests containing all the orbs.
"Midoriya, Kaminari?" Aizawa called out.
"Nothing," Kaminari called out.
"We are being jammed," Izuku yelled, opening the cases, "If the readings from our gear have been cut off, an alert program is already running and will notify the principal."
"Thirteen, get them out of here," Aizawa yelled as he went to plant over the railing.
"Let us take them out, damn it," Katsuki roared. "There is no way you can take them all with your quirk."
"That is your problem; no hero is just defined by their quirk," Aizawa replied, pulling his goggles down. "Now go or be expelled!"
"Oh, Eraser Head," Shigaraki said mockingly. "I will make sure your last words are shared with the world; maybe someone might give a shit. Kurogiri!"
"Now, children, to the exit!" Thirteen yelled out; the students turned to move. Melissa reluctantly stepped back, looking at the plaza where their Aizawa had leaped into battle. She turned to follow when a portal opened and outstepped Kurogiri, "I do apologize. We can't have you leaving so soon. The young master has ordered your deaths, and I am here to facilitate."
"You will not touch them," Thirteen yelled, jumping forward; her hand shot out as the caps of her gloves opened, and her quirk sprang forth.
"Too easy," Kurogiri said; a portal suddenly opened before him, and one opened behind Thirteen.
"No, you fucking don't!" yelled Melissa; two poles came launching from her back she rocketed forward. The poles dropped in front of the portal that opened behind Thirteen, and a solid light shield sprang to life, but it was too late. The attack hit and tore away part of Thirteen's suit before it was blocked, and the hero fell to her knees. A portal opened suddenly before Melissa, swallowing her to the horror of Mei, Momo, and Izuku.
Suddenly, Bakugo was airborne, and Eijiro activated his quirk as the two boys rushed Kurogiri, "DIE!" Bakugo roared; as he looked about to attack, they were swallowed by portals; the rest of the class began to move as more portals opened, swallowing them up. Momo tried to dive to the side, only for her to get caught and taken away.
"MOMO!" Mei yelled; she saw Izuku take off and dive after Momo. They saw Momo reach for him, but she was swallowed. As he fell, the portal snapped shut, and a portal also consumed Izuku.
The orbs raced into the air with three took off towards the glass dome at the top of the USJ; others scattered. Kurogiri turned to the remaining students; he seemed surprised when he finally noticed Mei and the orbs.
"Scatter!" Kurogiri said. A portal opened under Thirteen, but Ochaco dived, tagged her, activating her quirk, and rolled with Thirteen to safety. A portal opened on one of four orbs hovering around Mei, and a capture grenade launched towards the villain. A portal opened to redirect the grenade, but Kurogiri was distracted. Suddenly, a loud clang echoed around the area as Tenya leaped forward and, with his quirk, landed a thunderous kick straight to Kurogiri's neck brace.
Kurogiri went crashing into the railing, denting it; Ochaco grabbed Thirteen and pulled her away,
"We need to make a call for help!" Mina called out.
"A distress signal has already been sent," Mei said, taking Thirteen from Ochaco. "If it didn't go through, I have three orbs about to bust out of here and send another."
"We will handle the villains," Ochaco said to Mina. "Can you treat Thirteen?" The girls looked and saw the pro hero's back, which was torn up and bleeding horrendously.
"I have something that may help," Mei grabbed some spray canisters from a box and ran with Thirteen towards the control booth.
"It seems our opponent is not done yet," Tenya called out as Kurogiri freed himself from the railing. "Ladies, your assistance."
"With pleasure," Mina said, the three raced to attack. A portal opened, and Mina and Tenya dodged to the side; Mina threw an arching spray of acid that forced Kurogiri to dodge. Tenya continued to close, and Ochaco came out from around Mina and moved to attack.
The glass dome broke as the three orbs broke through, and Tenya's earpiece sprang to life.
"Distress Signal has been sent," came a very calm and lovely women's voice. "Rescue units are incoming; Island Protocol has been activated!"
"The signal has gotten through," Tenya called out to Mina and Ochaco. "Help is on the way."
They couldn't see Kurogiri's scowl, but they did see his eyes narrow. His distraction cost him as Mina hit him with an acid spray, making him yell in pain. Ochaco aimed for the eyes and landed a punch right between her target, striking true; she immediately landed a slap. Ochaco slipped to the side as a rocket-aided thrust kick sent Kurogiri through the railing and flying across the USJ.
Up the stairs came a rush of villains; they descended upon the trio, trying to take them out. The first attacker met a vicious rising knee from Tenya that sent them falling back. Ochaco ducked under a clubbing swing from a broad man whose arms had morphed into metal clubs; not a trained fighter like Tenya, but her parents ensured she could throw a punch. Coming in low, she twisted her hips and drove her fist into the man's gut; she stepped back and fired a straight jab right into the man's nose. As she went to follow up with a left cross, another villain, this one who had this black ooze leaking from his eyes, hissed and sizzled as it hit the deck and tackled her, sending them both down.
When the ooze hit her costume, it sizzled, and she screamed as if it was hot. She started to eat through her suit, where it landed. Turning her head to the side, she got her knee under him, rolled, and pushed him off overhead. Ochaco grabbed the ooze and tore it away, taking part of her costume.
Mina slid to the side, using her acid to glide as if she were on skates, and dodged past some villain with small black spikes sticking out everywhere that seemed like he wanted to make contact with her. The second villain behind that one was a woman with soaking wet black hair missing long clumps, wild, large black eyes, and no nose. Her nasal cavity was exposed. The woman screamed, and her hair fired out like spears toward Mina; she slid and bent past them, but one managed to slice her side. Mina flung her arm up, and a spray of diluted acid landed in the woman's face, causing a hiss, but the woman began to scream as some landed directly into her nasal cavity.
The villain Tenya hit was down for the count; as he was airborne, another villain whose legs were spring speared him in the side and talked him to the ground. His armor cracked from the impact. As they landed, Tenya grabbed Springs around the head and twisted, rolling over into top position, and landed an elbow to the villain's head. He saw movement out of the corner of his eye and got his arm up to block as Club Man swung, sending Tenya toppling over. The armor on his arms broke and fell apart, but thankfully, his arm did not meet the same fate.
Ochaco was pushed off towards the Ooze, angry about the holes in her costume and using the anger to block out the pain from where it had burned her skin, even through the fabric. Ooze threw a clumsy punch; Ochaco slid like a skilled soccer player and took out the man's legs, her foot aimed to hit Ooze's knee. Ooze's face planted. Ochaco was up in a flash, ran, and landed a kick on his ribs, keeping him down for the moment she needed. She tagged him with her quirk and yanked him up by the back of his shirt and pants. She spun and threw him like a lawn dart, sending him crashing into Club Man.
Mei grabbed the experimental medical foam and began using it to seal Thirteen's wounds. "Mother?" came from her earpiece.
"Hephaestus?" Mei responded.
"Yes, Island protocol has been activated, your distress call has been received, and the Swarm and Royal Guard will be deployed in minutes," Hephaestus reported.
"You are to target all students and faculty members of the U.A. for rescue and assistance. They are to be treated as high-value targets; lethal measures are authorized," Mei said, focusing on Thirteen. "Tap into the Spheres and deploy appropriate counter units, and Hephaestus Mommy wants her gun!"
"Understood," Hephaestus said.
"Should any student or faculty member die today, you have failed," Mei called out.
Mina got her arm up as Spike came down with a slap; the needles on his arm pierced her skin, and she felt a tingling sensation immediately; she bit down, not to let a sound of pain escape her lips. Instead, she swung toward the man's face but pulled up short and let her acid fly. The man's skin bubbled and burned; it was more substantial than she intended, but Mina couldn't think of that now. She flipped backward and landed a bicycle kick under the Spike's jaw, snapping his head back. Mina landed, ran forward, and hit him with a lay-out dropkick that sent him into the railing and unconsciousness.
Tenya got to his feet as Springs tried to dive and tackle him again; this time, Tenya was ready, pulling his body away from the impact of the trapped Spring's head and pulling guard, sinking in a guillotine choke. Ochaco negated gravity on herself, leaped high into the air, negated her quirk, and dropped a flying elbow on the back of Ooze's head, knocking it into Club and taking them out. Tenya felt Spring's go limp. He released his hold and got to his feet, seeing the girl had taken the others out.
Ochaco was caught up in the moment, and when she negated her gravity, she released her hold on Kurogiri, who started to fall as well. He had tried to use a portal to stop himself, but his momentum had bounced him. Now free from the effects of Ochaco's quirk, a portal that landed at Shigaraki's side.
"They got a signal out, young master," Kurogiri reported.
"Who brought those damn orbs? Why wasn't that part of the report?" Shigaraki bellowed. "Are the children dead at least?"
"No sir," Kurogiri answered.
"Ugh, these damn nothing villains are a waste of air," Shigaraki lamented to the sky. "Bring in the real deals. These children have tasted hope; let's turn that to ash in their mouths. Get it? Ash? I am so damn witty!"
"See, we got this," Mina said, shaking her arm as she smiled at her group.
"Yea, victory!" Ochaco smiled, holding her stomach.
Their victory was short-lived. A portal opened in the center of the area and out dropped a man with a large man with green skin, a disproportionately large upper body and arms, fangs, two toes on each foot, and a fin on his head as he dropped in large claws extended from his fingers.
A half-man/spider accompanied him. The man's lower body was that of a spider, much like a centaur from mythology; both halves were sickly looking, and his pale grey skin had these open soars that oozed some foul-smelling substance. Behind them dropped a thin woman wearing a skin-tight grey suit and a terse man with a shiny bald head, wearing a black vest, no shirt, and karate pants.
Tenya, Ochaco, and Mina were in their fighting stances; the villains looked at them and rolled their eyes. Tenya saw Mei poking her head out from behind them at the entrance to the control booth; she pointed to the control panel, then herself, he stepped forward.
"All you are guilty of, beyond some poor life decisions, is trespassing on private property. Surrender now before you continue to make more of those poor life decisions," Tenya said.
"Or we kill you and get paid," the green-skinned man said.
"Such Brutes," Tenya sighed.
Avalanche Zone
Katsuki and Ejiro flew out of the portal and crashed into a snow drift. Katsuki growled as he pushed himself up; he tried to fire off his quirk, but he managed a small explosion as the snow rapidly removed his sweat, which he needed to use his quirk. He got his head above the snow line, "What the…"
His sentence was cut off by a kick to the face that sent blood flying and tooth; he saw his attacker, a thin man with a light blue, almost white top and pants, a flowing wrap trailing behind him; he looked to be gliding across the top of the ice.
Ejiro pushed up and out of the ice; thankfully, his quirk was active as ice spikes arced over and crashed into him, but they shattered against his skin. Ejiro could not use his hardening all over his body at once, so he concentrated it on his upper body as he began to make his way out of the snow.
Katsuki was struggling to get out, and his skating attacker was back; another kick was launched into his head. Katsuki slid his head to the side at the last minute and managed to trip his attacker. Katsuki was almost out when he heard a warning from Ejiro, but he couldn't react when a villain running across the snow kneed him in the back of his head.
Ejiro was almost free when this burly, short man covered in furs popped out of the snow. His hands were clasped together as he swung towards Eijiro, and a club of ice formed in his hands and clattered off Ejiro, sending him to the side.
Katsuki growled, scrambling out of the snow, expecting Skater or Runner to return, but he saw them fall back as icicles came raining down. He fired off an explosion that destroyed a few as the others rained down past him, slicing his arms. When he looked again, a single giant spear was heading right towards him; Ejiro yelled for him to move, and he was up and on top of the ice when Skater and Runner approached him. Runner made the mistake of attempting the running knee, which crashed into Ejiro's hardened form, and a sickening crack was heard.
Katsuki tried to summon up some sweat to make an attack, but nothing came. Suddenly, Melissa came in and blew the Icicle up. She grabbed Katsuki and yanked him free of the snow. "I had it…"Katsuki began to yell when, without warning, around the wrist of the arm that had grabbed Katsuki, ports opened, and mini thrusters ignited. The glove rocketed off of Melissa with Katsuki in its firm grip over the snow and out of the snow drift.
Melissa whirled and fired a repulsor blast at Skater, sending them flying, and out of the fight, she rocketed over towards Eijiro, "Hand!" she called out. He raised his hand as she grabbed and yanked him towards where she had sent Katsuki.
Katsuki was dropped as they came over the snow drift. There was a bit of clearing of the trees, and he saw the woman's eyes widen as she started moving her hand rapidly in a circle. Katsuki saw the icicles beginning to form in the area around her arm. Katsuki rolled and rushed the woman; she fired. He dodged some, but a decent shot hit him in the arm as he speared her in the gut and drove her to the ground; he didn't stop as he mounted her and began to land unblocked punches to her face. "You damn good for nothing bitch; you are fucking lucky they dropped me in the snow," he yelled out. She had stopped moving, her face a bloody mess as he pushed off of the villain, with Ejiro and Melissa landing behind him. The gauntlet had returned to Melissa. "I didn't need your damn…"
"Shut the hell up!" Melissa yelled. "This isn't over yet. A distress signal has been sent; we must handle this and get to the door."
Out of the forest, a terrifying howl was heard. An extremely bony yet muscular thing emerged from the trees. It had ice-blue skin that appeared to be stretched so tightly around its body that its bones were visibly protruding. The creature's head hung low as its large, sullen eyes peered at its victims from behind the stringy hair falling over its face.
From behind it came an Ice Woman, almost like they walked right out of legend, with majestic long black hair, white as snow pale skin, and a nearly see-through white dress that flowed behind her; as she touched a tree, the students saw it freeze instantly. Skittering from the other side, they saw a man with a larger-than-normal mouth twisted in a strange smile; he moved low, his hands slapping against the ground, his mouth full of sharp teeth.
"I'll take the big one," Melissa said. "Try not to get dead!"
Ejiro looked at the Katsuki, "After I beat that Yokai bitch down, I will come to handle the big guy; I hope he doesn't peal that can of tuna off your bones before I save your bitch ass."
"I guess I got creepy," Ejiro said. "Got anything I can use?"
A piece came out of Melissa's backpack and attached to Ejiro's arm like a bracelet, and a hard Light Shield Sprang forth, and another piece wrapped around his hand started to spark electricity. "Shield and Shock Punch. You want anything, Captain Asshole." She said to Bakugo.
"I don't need your or Deku's cheap ass toys; watch the next number one hero handles this shit," Katsuki growled back.
Fire Zone
Shoto came falling out of a portal above a cityscape aflame; the immense heat surrounding him called upon his ice to slow his descent. Another portal opened, and Sero came falling out.
Sero launched his tape at a building, yanking himself towards it before cutting it off and going to the building on the other side, trying to slow his descent. Shoto's ice immediately began to melt from the ranging inferno around them. Sero let loose a few choice cuss words as he was trying not to die from the fall or the fire; he spied a light pole that wasn't on fire and fired his quirk. It struck true that he was in the middle of his swing to safety when flames came tearing away from a building, looking like a blade, and cut his tape, sending him crashing to the ground and driving the wind out of him.
As Shoto landed, a man came running out of the burning building, cackling wildly and charging straight at Sero. The man appeared seared and charred; his skin clung to him like leather. Sero tried to scramble back; Shoto stomped his foot and waved in ice, racing past the charred man, and kept running as he was encased in ice. Sero caught his breath as he stumbled back. Shoto saw the area the man was trapped in begin to melt when all the flames on a building came up and off, crashing over the ice and melting it; a hiss of steam as more fire came crashing down, and it splashed across the floor. Sero dived away, and when he landed, he batted at his leg as the flames danced over his suit.
They watched through the haze of flames, and the charred man could be seen dancing in the flames like some twisted ballerina. The fire came tearing away from him and towards the two, Shoto summoned his ice again, a massive glacier racing out to combat the torrent of fire; when the two were about to meet, Shoto saw more flames being pulled from the surrounding buildings. The two forces collided, super hot, and met super cold, with explosive results. Everyone was blown away, and Shoto and Sero were only kept in place by an ice wall that left their heads ringing. They were on their knees as they saw the charred man stumble out of a building, bleeding and laughing. Shoto stumbled on his feet; he saw the fire come back over the buildings; he scanned and saw a boy not much older than him. Getting to his feet, he had black hair with bright red streaks.
"Where is your fire, son of Endeavor?" They heard a booming voice from above, and then the ground shook as a massive thing of a man landed; it looked like some demon out of European Mythology. It was over 7ft tall, massively broad and muscular, with two black horns protruding from its forehead, long black hair hung down its back between massive red bat-like wings, and a strange-looking fur pelt covering its waist.
"Don't need it for the likes of you?" Shoto spit out. "I don't need fire to take care of you." Shoto sent out another wave of ice. The demon-looking villain laughed, and then a torrent of black and red fire spewed from its mouth. It hit the ice and overwhelmed it quickly; Sero dove to the side and fired his quirk at the villain. Then, from out of nowhere, chained blades came and severed his tape in mid-air.
He saw the chains were attached to a woman; she was wearing an outfit of chain mail with a veil made of the same material. From various points on the chain, mail hung multiple blades. She appeared to be bald; her eyes were this yellow sclera with solid red pupils, no other clothing was visible under the chain mail, patches of burned and charred skin, numerous scars could be seen, and an order of rust and blood seemed to emanate from her. She could have been beautiful at one time; even now, she had an allure.
Sero looked to Shoto, "Any idea who these two are?"
"Fiend and The Damned," Shoto replied. Eyeing the villains, just beyond them were the Charred Man and the Fire Manipulator.
"These are professionals," Sero said, a lump in his throat.
Storm Zone
Momo came tumbling out of the portal; she rolled to her feet, and the HL Shield sprang to life, and the Sick Stick was in her hand. She turned at the sound of charging footsteps; the villain went airborne, their jaw unhinging and massive fangs extended. Momo spun to the side and slammed the shield to the back of the villain's head. The villain wasn't alone; the second tackled Momo on the side, sending them to the ground. Momo rolled, jamming the Sick Stick into the attacker's side; she rolled and pushed up, ignoring the villain that had attacked her. The Fang Villain was still active, puking his guts out, but still active. Momo grabbed a capture grenade from her hip and threw it, securing the villain. She created zip ties and did so in the second one. She wiped the water from her face. The hair on the back of her neck was standing up.
She turned and saw the rain in the area around her stop falling; she raised her shield as the water merged into a swirling ball; there, at the edge of the building, she saw a woman standing there, one palm up the other, making a swirling motion above it. Momo burst forward. The ball of water launched at her and went low, grunting. She swung the shield under the ball and was able to push it up. Momo kept running forward, but when the woman showed no sign of panic, Momo turned and braced her shield at the ready as the water ball came crashing down at her. The impact drove her to one knee, but the shield absorbed much force. The ball didn't break or dissipate. It was still there, pushing down against Momo. Momo pushed up and swung the ball away again; turning, she dashed again at the villain. The villain sent her attack again; Momo froze in mid-step, letting her fly past her. As she got the woman, she could hear the woman cursing under her breath; the villain's eyes showed signs of panic. Momo saw the villain make a pulling motion with the hand that seemed to be controlling the ball. Trusting her instincts, she dropped into the splits at the last moment, and the ball came rushing past her. It struck the villain; Momo heard the villain scream in pain and panic as the villain's attack struck them and sent her flying off the building.
A sickening thud was heard, and the rain again began to fall. Momo looked over the edge and saw the crumbled form of the woman below, blood pooling from the body. The skin above Momo's eyepiece glowed, and a short visor blocked the water from running into her eyes. "I need to address this with the team after this," Momo told herself. The roof door came banging open and outburst two more villains, twins by their appearance with crazed looks in their eyes. They spied Momo and licked their lips in a way that made Momo's skin crawl.
They both took fighting stances that mirrored each other and came charging at Momo; they crisscrossed as they ran in perfect synch. Momo twirled the sick stick and had the shield ready.
"Come to us, little girl," They said in unison. "We have permission to play but must turn you over."
"Turn me over to who?" Momo said as they looked about to cross again. Her hand glowed, and she threw a Russian nesting doll into the path of the one coming from her left. The villain ignored it, but it burst open, and an oily substance burst out. The villain's footing failed as they slipped and tumbled to the ground.
Right kept moving and came in; he ducked under Momo's attack with the sick stick. He grabbed at her uniform in an attempt to tear and yank Momo to the side. Momo planted her foot, slipped her shield arm under the man's armpit, and pushed him off balance; she used her other leg to kick his legs out and send him cartwheeling in the air. Momo felt a tear in her plant leg, so she bit her lip to ignore the pain. The man's head crashed at an awkward angle, scrapping across the roof; Momo just swung the sick stick like a club down across the man's jaw, eliminating him. The one that slipped had regained his footing and tackled Momo to the ground; his hands were clawing at her in a frenzy, seemingly more interested in trying to tear away her suit than inflict damage. He had her arm pinned, not allowing her to use the sick stick; a short knife emerged from the glow of Momo's hand, and she drove it into her attacker's side. He yelled in pain, slipping her leg in between his and drover it up hard into his groin. She rolled on top of him, and using the sick stick as a fist pack, she punched him until he stopped moving. "Hmm, another idea," Momo muttered.
Suddenly, there was a loud eruption of thunder around her, and Momo screamed as the bolt of Lightning crashed into her. Everything went hazy, her scouter popping, the sick stick fried, but the shield generator around her arm held together. She was thankful she hadn't been knocked out and that Izuku and Mei had upgraded her suit; the Vibranium and Mithril weave could channel most of the attack through the suit and to the ground and the poor villain under her. She looked and dove as another lightning bolt struck the ground. Momo ran and dived off the roof, not wanting to try and push the boundaries of the suit more. A grabbling hook and line came forth via her quirk. She fired it to save herself from the fall.
As she landed, she looked for her attacker but saw Tsu come flying from around the corner. Her uniform had been cut in some places by what looked like claws across her stomach, down her back, and her right thigh. The suit seemed to have done its job for the most part, but blood was still flowing from the wounds. It was then that Momo saw her classmates pursue. The man had some lizard mutation: a long, flat snout and head, a long neck, sturdy-looking arms and legs, and a long muscular tail. He was covered in large stone color scales, a yellow forked tongue flicked out, and a hungry grin was on his face. Tsu grabbed a light pole and spun around it. Using her momentum, she flew around it and landed a double-drop kick on the villain's chest, sending him flying.
Momo ran towards the fight; the Lizard Man tumbled and was quickly on his feet despite his dense appearance. It bull-rushed Tsu, but the girl could leap high over the attack; her tongue wrapped around the light pole and yanked her out of harm's way. The Lizard immediately turned its attention to Momo, and with surprising agility, it leaped at Momo to attack with its long claws. It came at her with all four limbs and claws extended, its head and mouth open wide in an attempt to stab and bite her all at once.
Momo noticed that it wasn't logical in its attack. It was almost like a feral animal. Momo dove and tumbled to the side, not wanting to get pinned under the creature. Flashbangs sprang from her side nearest the attack as she dove; the beast landed on them and howled in pain as they exploded. Some are in direct contact with the beast. Tsu leaped off the light pole, somersaulting in the air, and landed feet first into the back of the creature's head, driving it into the pavement. Tsu jumped again and landed at Momo's side. The beast stumbled to its feet, and the smell of burnt skin filled the air despite the rain. Momo grabbed the last of the capture grenades on her belt. She was about to through them, but only one had survived the lightning strike. The trigger mechanisms, on the other hand, were damaged.
Hold him off for a moment," Momo called to Tsu. Tsu nodded and rushed the Lizard; the frog girl tumbled under a clumsy claw strike, planted her hands, and launched herself up in an uptick, snapping the Lizard's head back.
"CLEAR!" Momo yelled, and Tsu exited the area as the capture grenades flew. The broken ones had a small explosive attached to them that Momo detonated. The three grenades exploded and covered the creature, pinning it. Momo moved forward, her arm glowing like a liquid had fallen just above the creature's head, and the binding had dissolved. "Now you won't suffocate, at least," Momo said.
"MOMO LOOK OUT!" Tsu yelled as she tackled Momo away as lightning stuck where she stood. They scrambled to their feet as they caught sight of their attacker; the man was massive, tall, nearly towering easily over six and a half feet. Two long horns protruded from his forehead, making him look like an Oni from legend. Lightning danced over his arms and chest; he was clad in only an open vest and loose pants with sandals. He sneered at the girls; they were about to run when from the other side emerged a woman with a withered, gaunt skull face and long stringy white hair; her white robe was soaked, and her skin clung to her body as if there was nothing under there but bones. Her black eyes showed a horrid and angry stare, which showed malice and hatred.
"Kill the pretty," it slurred. "Kill and eat the pretty ones; become pretty, I will."
"Kill the Frog, Wraith, but leave the other," Lightning said.
"But she is prettier and will taste so much better, Rajin," Wraith whined, taking a jerking step forward.
"Orders are orders," Rajin said.
"Who is that wants me?" Momo yelled, looking back and forth between the two villains.
"Do not fret, pretty girl. After we snag you, you won't be lonely. Your inventor friend will be there to keep you company," Momo's eyes narrowed at Rajin's words.
"Tsu, they are after me and Izuku," Momo said. "Run, I will hold them off."
"I don't think so, Momo, ribbit," Tsu said. "They are not taking you on my watch."
"Thank you, Tsu. Take this," Momo unlocked the bracelet for the Hard Light Shield and passed it to Tsu. "I never wanted to use this on a person, but you will tell me who sent you, or I will carve the answer from your flesh." Momo reached into a pouch and pulled a purple crystal from it, and a strange handle emerged from her hand. She inserted the crystal, and the purple lightsaber sprang to life. Tsu's eyes widened as Momo's demeanor shifted, and she stalked toward Rajin.
"Okay, Skeletor, it is you and me," Tsu said, slipping on the bracelet, and the shield sprang to life.
Ruin Zone
Toru landed in the remains of a collapsed house; to her left were villains, and to her right were villains. They all turned at the portal, opening the sound of someone landing. One of the villains, a man with sickly pale green skin covered in splotches, reached out hesitantly toward Toru; she slipped under his arm, keeping her movement slow and quiet. She tensed her legs, grabbed his arm, stepped in, and threw him over her shoulder into the duo on her left, sending them down in a heap. The one remaining on her right jumped back near a window and turned their palms up as slick black talons extended from their wrists. Toru didn't hesitate and rushed the villain; the debris shifting at her feet approximated her location. The talons fired out. Toru slipped past them and dove, tacking the villain out the window and onto the street.
Toru grabbed the villain by the hair and bounced their head off the concrete, leaving them in a daze. She got to her feet; they were on their hands and knees trying to get up till she punt-kicked them in the head, dropping them. The other villains were coming out of the house, and again, Toru froze.
The two men were scanning the area for some sign of her, the woman with them, her eyes shifting colors turned yellow, and she pointed to Toru. "She is right there at 3 o'clock from Kisho's head."
"Aww fuck," Toru said as the other two villains came rushing towards her. One had substantial ape-like arms, which suddenly blurred from sight and crashed into Toru, sending her flying. Toru was dazed, but she heard Eyes call out her position as Ape leaped into the air to try and land a crushing double-handed smash on Toru. Toru rolled to the side to avoid the attack that spiderwebbed the concrete; getting to her feet, she grabbed a piece of rubble and hurled it toward the woman, making her dive for cover. The Blur moved again; instead of Toru being sent flying, she jumped back and opened her arms. When the Blur collided with her, she grabbed onto him, getting her arms around his neck and yanking him with her.
As she suspected, the ape came racing towards them. Toru was on Blur's side. She grabbed his face with one hand and jammed her thumb into his eye, making him scream. As Ape approached, she kicked Blur away, forcing Ape to leap over his comrade. Toru rolled her legs under her and leaped towards Ape's lower body; she hit her target and sent him spinning overhead to the ground. Toru landed, rolled, and was on the ground as Eyes called out her position. But Ape was getting to his feet, and Blur still held his eye.
Toru dove and tackled Eyes to the ground. The villain tried to claw at Toru's face, but Toru forced the woman's hand to the side and dropped a forearm to Eye's nose. The villain screamed, her eyes shut and vision blurred. Toru didn't stop. She posted up and started raining down left and right to the villain's face till Ape grabbed her and threw her away. Toru protected her head, trying to tumble the best she could from the throw.
Toru rolled and came into a low crouch. She got a lock on the villains, and she saw Blur rushing towards her again. This time, when he disappeared, Toru stayed crouched, protecting her head as he toppled over her. She grabbed a chunk of rubble at her feet and smashed it across his head, sending him down and out. Ape was in the air when a laser blast came out of nowhere, and the villain crumpled to the ground like a light.
He who fired the Laser
Izuku fell through the portal; he had not even landed yet when he was being grabbed. Multiple people were trying to restrain him. Izuku struggled as they came into view. They were all garbed in white medical coats with colored medical scrubs, masks, and head coverings. Izuku was strong; all he spent with Daiki working around the junkyard and at the forge had left its mark on him. Then, after the Island attack, he started working out more, even training with some of Momo's instructors to get some pointers. He wasn't some combat specialist or genius, but he could brawl. That was what Izuku started to do.
He yanked one of the Dr. Blues off balance, making them bang into Dr. Green. Dr. Pink was at his legs, trying to come up and help pin his arms. He saw Dr. Red pulling a syringe and circling toward his head from the corner of his eye.
"Hold him down, damn it," Dr. Red called out. "We have to sedate him."
"Easy for you, say, Red," Blue responded. "Little bastard is strong!"
Green punched Izuku in the face; Izuku tried to turn his head to deflect the blow. "Don't break anything. They want him to be as unharmed as possible," Pink called out.
"A few bruises won't drop the price any!" Green growled out, punching Izuku again. Pink got his knee and pinned Izuku's left hand, and Green and Blue pinned the other.
"Just relax, kid. Your little friend will join you. Just play ball, and you both will live," Red said. "Don't play; she will wish she was dead, got it."
They were going to take him, take one of the girls, probably Momo, maybe even kill or subject her or the others to unspeakable horror to make him comply. This was something that Izuku could not allow; he lost his hand to save Momo, and he would lay down his life to save any of the girls. If these villains wanted to test his resolve, they would learn what the experience on the I-island had taught him. They never saw his hand change; when the red blast generated by the crystal in his hand erupted, Pink never even had a chance to scream as the beam tore through him, severing him in half. It tore effortlessly through Pink's hip, through the body, out the shoulder.
The attackers were stunned; Izuku was not. He rolled, placed his hand on Greens face, and removed it from existence; he kneed Blue, freeing himself. Red stumbled back, screaming in horror. Izuku got to his feet, pulled the sick stick, and slammed it into Blue's head. Izuku looked and saw Red stumbling back, screaming. Izuku stared at Red, and he brought the Sick Stick down again and again.
Izuku got to his feet and started to walk towards Red, "If you tell me who hired you, I will let you live," Izuku said as he raised his hand, the red crystal glowing.
Izuku came running out of the building, trying to get a lay of his surroundings, when he heard the sounds of battle; fear ran through him as he raced towards the sounds. As he ran, he pulled different components from his belt and assembled a blaster; he saw the Ape Villain in the air but didn't see anyone immediately, so he assumed it was Toru. He took aim and fired; the blast hit and disrupted the villain's neural synapse, knocking him out. It worked along the same lines as the pulse disruption from the Island attack.
"Toru?" Izuku called out.
"Izuku?" Toru responded, looking over and seeing Izuku come out from the corner with a laser gun. She got to her feet and ran towards him. "I am coming straight to you from the front," she called out.
Izuku opened his arms to hug her briefly, "We need to get out of here."
"I agree this shit is not what I had in mind today," Toru said. She caught movement from the corner of her eye, and something flew towards them. "Izuku, look out!" Toru yelled, grabbing him and diving to cover as a massive chunk of debris crashed where they once stood. Another was approaching them, and Toru tried to cover Izuku to protect him. She felt his arm wrap around her. She saw him raise his left hand, and this red energy blast erupted, destroying the incoming attack.
They scrambled as a young man just a little older than them landed in from where the debris had been launched. The young man had black hair and eyes, and he was wearing a skin-tight white shirt that showed off his physique and blue jeans. Izuku and Toru tried to make a run for it when they came around the corner; Toru had to tackle Izuku out of the way as a massive metal ball came crashing where they would have been. The weapon-wielding was tall, over 6 feet bare, and chested with broad shoulders, pants, and black boots.
"God damn it, Wrecker, we need the guy alive for fucks sake!" The young man yelled.
"Sorry!" Wrecker replied, his voice betrayed a lack of intelligence.
Izuku and Toru were on their feet, eyeing their attackers, when fog began to fill the area. "Relax, Pinnacle," they heard a woman's voice. "I will handle the invisible girl. I am sure you can handle one little inventor."
"Shut it, Mist," Pinnacle responded.
"We are in trouble, Izuku," Toru said, looking for the woman. "They know my quirk. The first group had someone who could see me as well."
"This isn't just some random attack," Izuku said. "If they planned for your quirk, I hope the others are all right. We can't let them take us. By now, an emergency signal has been sent; we need to hold them off till backup arrives."
"I will protect you," Toru whispered. "That is what heroes do."
Landslide Zone
Denki struggled to his feet, blood seeping from the wound on his shoulder. Kyoka stood protectively before him, facing their attackers, her face bloodied, her fists raised. Mezo pushed off the rock golem villain as their other attackers regathered for a third assault. They wore wounds from the battle that began as soon as they had landed, and a group of about ten villains descended upon them in a mob. They were trying to drag them away from each other. Their costumes had been torn in the frenzy that had descended upon them. None of them had been spared in this assault.
"You good?" Kyoka said over her shoulder.
"Fuck yea," Denki said, coming to her side. Both had lost their jackets and shirts torn, and the only thing protecting Kyoka's modesty was a black sports bra. Mezo tore the shreds of his top off and tossed them aside; bruises and welts littered his body from his fight with Golem. Cuts, scrapes, and stab wounds covered the hero students. The wild look of manic hunger on their four remaining opponents showed they would not be retreating. They felt their prize was at hand.
The one to the right eyeing Denki had black hair with parts that were long and others short, with everything in between; her quirk manifested in her nails. They had grown long and black, razor-sharp as they could all attest.
In the middle was a man with dark skin, brown hair, and brown eyes, dressed in a long, long-sleeved, ankle-length garment that was scorched from Denki's electric attack and was bleeding from both his ears from Kyoka.
Left was a bare chest, wearing only a pair of shorts. He held one arm next to his broken ribs, and his blonde hair was stained red from a wound on his head. He eyed Mezo, hoping to repay the boy for the wounds he had suffered.
The one at the back was the most disturbing, not for his appearance but for his actions during the melee. He wore a white ruffled shirt that was now dirty and stained with blood, curly black hair, and eyes. When the melee started, he called Kyoka by name, telling her how wonderful she had grown up and hoping she was still unspoiled. He had clawed at her clothes, her pants, and when Denki had tackled him off, he did the same to him. It was this man they heard called Ruckus who was trying to grab them and drag them away with a passion. His quirk was some sonic scream; he had nearly done Kyoka when he unleashed it. His missing eye was because Kyoka was not about to submit to this bastard or anyone else.
"Mezo, throw me, grab Kyoka, and get to higher ground," Denki whispered. "I can't take this anymore, man!" Denki started to say, panicking. "I didn't sign up for this, man, this is only our first week and shit!" Denki was standing in front of Mezo; he gave a wink.
"PULL YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!" Mezo yelled. The villains stepped forward, and Mezo grabbed Denki from under his arms and threw him back. Denki smiled, opening his arms as if performing a trust fall. Mezo turned, grabbed Kyoka, and jumped up the mountain.
"1.5 MILLION INDISCRIMINIT SHOCH, YOU MOTHER FUCKERS!" Denki yelled. Denki unleashed everything he had; the chorus of the villain's screams lulled him into shutdown as the attack overloaded his brain.
Mezo and Kyoka let out a yell as part of the attack still hit them. But they were still up; the villains lay on the ground smoking from the attack. Denki laid on his back. "DENKI?" Kyoka yelled. He raised his arms in the air and gave a thumbs up.
"WHEY!" they heard him yell back.
Mezo and Kyoka scrambled down the hillside to get to their classmate when suddenly the ground exploded underneath them, sending them cartwheeling. Kyoka and Mezo pushed themselves up as the dirt and dust settled; standing holding Denki was a man with all sorts of strange electronics on his body; there was a razor blade in his hand, and he was holding Denki's throat.
Next to him was another man dressed in brown pants and a multi-pouched vest; his hair and eyes matched the color of the dirt around them. He made a sweeping motion with his hand, and several earth spikes formed and faced the students.
"Give it up, or your friend is dead!" Electronic called out, pushing the razor harder to draw some blood.
Mezo looked at Kyoka, but Kyoka just shook her head. They needed a plan and needed it fast!
Flood Zone
Mineta was small in stature, but this did not lead him towards athletic prowess; it did make it so that when he was dropped into the flood zone, he had to swim for his life, even more so than an average person. Thankfully, his quirk Pop Off once he removed them, so armed with two of the orbs in his hand, it was helping him. What was not helping him was being attacked by water-based villains.
Mineta never expected to be involved in a water battle for his life, yet that was where he found himself. He didn't see the first attack, but he felt it when the child-sized piranha quirk villain bit his leg; it was a lucky kick from Mineta that dislocated his attacker. It was not brief or a test bite. This bastard had gone deep and hard. Mineta started to try to move towards the boat, his leg bleeding. When he found out this wasn't a lone villain, he had friends. Panic crept at the back of Mineta's mind; he was at a severe disadvantage. The next bite went to his arm; he grabbed an orb, slammed it on the creature's eye, and yanked as hard as he could. The eyelid and eyeball tore free. The next one went for his stomach, instead got an orb in its mouth first. Mineta was bleeding when he saw the remaining three come circling back at him, murder in their eyes. That was when he was yanked from the water by Dark Shadow and pulled on deck.
He landed and immediately went to his pouch, scrambling for gauze; he was at Fumi's feet, doing the same as Dark Shadow, and went back into the water. Mineta noticed that parts of Fumi were bandaged on his arms, and blood was seeping through the bandages at an alarming rate.
Sato's hands were impaled on the teeth of the shark villain as he was holding the mouth of the creature open to keep it from biting him. He had been able to consume some sugar to at least activate his quirk, but in the water, compared to such a villain, he was at a definite disadvantage. The Shark was strong. Sato closed his eyes, got his leg up into the shark's mouth, and pushed down while he used his hands to push up. Even underwater, he could hear the sounds of the flesh tearing, the bones breaking, and the villain screaming as Sato tore the villain's mouth open past all reasonable measure.
He pushed to the surface, doing his best not to vomit; he had barely broken the surface and got a tiny bit of air when a tentacle wrapped around his leg and hauled him down below the surface. Sato's lungs began to burn immediately; he felt more tentacles grabbing him. He yanked an arm free, grabbed the first tentacle, and tore at it. Ripping it in half, he didn't stop, another and another; even when the villain let go, he still managed to grab a third and tear it free. His vision darkened, and he tried desperately to reach the surface. When Dark Shadow broke through and grabbed him, yanking him up and out, once on the surface, Mineta and Fumi got to work helping bandage his hands the best they could.
"Thank you," Sato said to Dark Shadow.
"None necessary," Dark Shadow responded.
Fumi touched his ear, and the earpiece Mei had given him suddenly sprang to life. "A distress signal has been sent," Fumi said, looking at the group.
"Can we stay here till help arrives?" Mineta said, not looking forward to trying to get back in the water.
"I don't think that is an option," Dark Shadow called out. They looked over the rail as something came rocketing; it seemed to ride a giant water spout. It landed on the mast above the boys. It was a scaled-looking humanoid; it resembled some ancient movie monster. Its scales were variations of blue and red eyes. Orange and red fins protruded from the creature's back, and arms, vibrant orange class, dug quickly into the mast metal from which it perched.
On the back of the spout emerged a woman; she resembled some sort of water elemental; there was an ethereal beauty about her, suggestive curves, and her hair looked made of sea snakes as they danced about.
"Drown!" she commanded as the water spout crashed onto the deck.
Forrest Zone
Yuga dove to the side as the arrow went whistling past; how he could strike a pose and return fire while in mid-air was something that Ojiro would have to ask him about later. Ojiro quickly ducked under the claw strike of a bear quirk villain and lifted his elbow under the creature's jaw, slamming it shut. The Bear stumbled back, and Ojiro went low, using his tail to take out the villain's legs; not stopping once the villain fell, he grabbed a hold of a leg. He planted his foot on the villain's kneecap and pushed down while simultaneously pulling up with sickening brutality.
Koji Koda ran and tackled another villain into a tree, causing the wood to crack. A third villain came tumbling for another tree as the horde of squirrels leaped to safety. Koji, the villain he had tackled by the legs, swung him like a bat against the tree, eliminating him from the fight.
Yuga got to his feet and managed to dodge another arrow shot, but a second one came and struck him in the thigh, sending him down to one knee. Yuga fired his navel laser again and rolled behind a tree for cover.
Ojiro spun away from the bear villain as a club swung at him from some man garbed in furs. Ojrio deflected the blowdown and away, came in close, and landed a knee strike to the man's gut. Ojiro hissed as it felt like his knee didn't strike a person but a solid object; thankfully, he had built up the skin and area around his joints with callouses. The Barbarian seemed to expect the blow to do nothing and landed a head butt that made Ojiro stumble back, his eyes watering from the blow. The club came after cracking Ojiro in the ribs. Ojiro fired off a punch, and again, it collided but seemed to have no effect. Ojiro pulled his hand back and slipped under a wild swing, but he was barbarian. Ojiro grabbed the man's arm and flipped him over his shoulder before he stepped back, holding his ribs.
Koji turned in time to get his arms up to block an attack from a large, muscular villain. He resembled a satyr with long goat horns and legs, but his face was nothing like that of charming fairy tales; it seemed twisted more bestial in shape. Koji swung back but hit nothing as Satyr leaned back and then kicked Koji, sending him crashing through a tree. Koji was dazed, and the woodland creatures rushed his attacker; as Koji got to his feet, he saw the Satyr grab one of the squirrels and tear it in half, then stomp another. Koji roared and ran, delivering a lay-out drop kick that sent the Satyr tumbling, but that didn't stop Koji. He was up in an instant. He dived and landed on the Satyr in a bind rage, punching and clawing at the villain.
Yuga peaked out from behind the tree; he saw the others fighting; he took a deep breath and rushed from cover, diving to avoid another shot. He peaked out and fired, dashing again to try and get closer. His leg buckled, and he fell and tumbled into the brush; he tried to get to his feet, his leg screaming in pain. Suddenly, his hair was grabbed, and he was yanked violently free and thrown into a clearing.
Yuga sat up as an arrow whizzed past his head. He saw a blonde girl step out; she had an arrow notched, and her magenta eyes sparkled, "Got you, little brother," the woman said in French.
Out of the bush stomped a massive specimen of a human being with a muscular frame, his eyes wide and solid black, long black hair hung to the small of the man's back. Dressed in a black polo shirt and matching jeans, two large teeth stuck out from his lower jaw.
"Did you have to grab me by the hair, Ogre," Yuga said, rubbing his head. "That hurt."
"Only for appearances," Ogre responded with a smirk that said the opposite.
"Quit your bellyaching," the girl said.
"You did shoot me in the leg, Joan," Yuga responded.
"I could have used my quirk instead if you like?" Joan responded—an arrow of white and gold energy formed in her hand.
"No, I am good," Yuga said quickly. He reached into a pouch and pulled out a flash drive. "Here is the information I was able to get from the computers. The girl is quirkless; it all comes from the suit. Two first years made it, Izuku Midoriya and Mei Hatsume. I couldn't get much on them, different class and all."
"Well, little brother, shall we continue the charade," Joan said with a smile.
"Yes, let's," Yuga said, getting to his feet.
Plaza
Aizawa was doing his best to fight through the swarm of villains when he saw the Kurogiri appear next to Shigaraki and the monster at his side. The two hadn't moved since the beginning of the fight; more villains had been dropped into the area after Kurogiri had reappeared, and the backup seemed much more capable than the initial attackers. They would swarm, driving Aizawa back and down. It was turning into a mad scramble. Aizawa was nearly swarmed when Spheres came crashing into his attackers, using hard light shields as battering rams.
Aizawa got to his feet as the Monster. He saw his attackers get thrown aside like toys as the monster crashed into him and through him, sending him flying back into the wall; blood flew out of Aizawa's mouth. The Monster first rocketed towards Aizawa when two Spheres dropped in between their shields deployed; the Monster's fist hit then pushed through and destroyed the machines.
Suddenly, the monster looked to the sky, and the area above the Plaza darkened as a robotic swarm had arrived.
