In Alya's room...

Mr. Aizawa had let Alya stay in Class 2-A's dormitory so that she could keep an eye on Skylar when he wasn't around. She was sound asleep, surprised that she could even get a good night's sleep.

It was a quiet night for everyone in the dormitory.

Then she heard a loud noise.

Alya's eyes shot open, confused as to what she just heard. She chest tightened up, but quickly got out of bed. Before she could transform, she heard it again.

"What is that noise?" Trixx asked her with worried eyes.

"I have no idea, but I need to make sure that everyone's okay," Alya said to her Kwami, "Trixx, Let's Pounce."

Alya had quickly transformed into Rena Rouge, worried for her friends. Based on where the noise came from, it sounded like it was upstairs. She quietly opened the door, noticing that there was no one around her dorm room. Then again, she was in an area where there was no other classmates around. She got her flute ready, wondering how she should go about this.

Rena Rouge slowly made her way out of her room and headed towards the elevator. As soon as she entered, she had a bad feeling coming over her stomach. Her heart rate increased as she stood there waiting for the elevator to make its way up towards the common room. She was going to make her way towards Iida's room, but she knew that she had to reach Mr. Aizawa first.

He was their teacher after all.

Once the door opened however, something about the common room felt off. She was tempted to head back to her dorm room, but she tried to force herself to exit the elevator. Once she did, she felt like someone was watching her from far away. She could've sworn that someone was in there with her as she looked all around her.

She was about to head over to Mr. Aizawa's room, when she suddenly came face to face with Skylar. She could barely get a word out before she was suddenly pushed against the wall. Rena Rouge felt like she got the wind knocked out of her. She found herself in Skylar's grip and couldn't get out of it. Her eyes were soon locked onto Skylar's, which made her whole body stiffen up.

"Sk-Skylar...?!" Rena Rouge cried out, "What're you doing?!"

Skylar gritted her teeth and tightened her hold around her throat. Rena Rouge felt like she couldn't breathe as she tried to fight her way out of her grip. She couldn't think of what to do in that moment, even with her Miraculous. Before she could even do anything, Skylar let go of her. Rena Rouge coughed so much that she could barely tell what had just happened.

She dropped to the floor, feeling a little lightheaded from her grip. Her flute fell to the floor, and she reached out to grab it. Before she could, Skylar broke into two pieces with her foot like it was a twig. Her eyes widened in shock, unable to comprehend what was happening. She looked up Skylar and noticed how bright and intense her eyes were.

"Don't follow me. You'll only get hurt," Skylar demanded quietly.

Before Skylar could escape, Iida and other classmates came running out of the elevator. Rena Rouge tried to get up as Skylar backed away from her.

"Alya! Are you okay?!" Iida asked her with a lot of concern for her.

"Y-Yeah... I-I'm fine," Rena Rouge told him as Uraraka helped her up.

They all stared at Skylar, realizing what was going on. Iida gritted his teeth, knowing full well what was going on with her. Even everyone else realized it as well as Skylar backed away with glowing eyes.

"Rena Rouge was right all along," Iida said to her, "You're the one behind all of this, aren't you? You're helping the League of Villains!"

Everyone was still shocked to find out, even Uraraka as she helped out Rena Rouge. Skylar bit her lip, unable to say anything to them. Iida's eyes grew wide with annoyance that she would even pull something like this.

"You lied to all of us! You're not even here to be a hero at all!" Iida cried out, "You just wanted to help the enemy this entire time!"

Skylar's eyes glowed brighter as if he was really frustating her as he kept going on about her. Iida stood up to her, but she kept backing away trying to find a way out of here.

"There's no way we're letting you get away!" Yaoyorozu cried out, feeling a little hurt.

In the corner of Rena Rouge's eye, she thought she spotted something flying outside. It looked like birds in the distance, but something told her that it was something else. She felt like she was going to throw up, realizing that they were in trouble.

Iida stood up to Skylar, trying to get in her way. Even Kirishima and Yaoyorozu stood up to her, ready to fight her.

"I can't believe that you would pull something like this!" Kirishima said to her, "I thought you were our friend!"

Rena Rouge noticed that the bird figures were getting closer to the dormitory and no one else seemed to notice. Her eyes widened, realizing that they were bigger than she expected. Iida didn't even seemed to noticed them as he got closer to Skylar. Before Rena Rouge knew it, she launched herself towards Iida as soon as those creatures flew through the windows.

"Iida! Watch out!" Rena Rouge cried out.

Rena Rouge was barely able to push him out of the way because of how much stronger he was. She somehow got him pushed away from the windows and onto the floor. Kirishima used his quirk to shield Yaoyorozu from the glass. Uraraka was able to get away just in time. Rena Rouge soon noticed Iida getting up from the whiplash as he held his head.

Before he could even ask if she was okay, his eyes widened from what they were witnessing. There were several Nomu in their dormitory, ready to fight them one on one. Everyone stood there, shaking in their slippers.

"N-Nomus?! W-What are they even doing here?!" Yaoyorozu cried out.

Before anyone could ask any more questions, more classmates came running out of the elevator. Even Mr. Aizawa came running out of his room with his scarf. None of them expected this in the middle of the night.

"What the?! N-Nomus?!" Kaminari cried out.

Rena Rouge couldn't even comprehend what she was seeing right in front of her. They looked like giant creatures from comic books or maybe even horror films. She couldn't even imagine what kind of powers and quirks that they might have. Rena Rouge didn't have her flute on her, so she couldn't confuse them.

Before they could do anything, one of them launched after Mr. Aizawa. He tried to dodge it, but they were much quicker than he expected. They had huge hands that could wrap around Mr. Aizawa, and he tried to dodge him before they could grab him. Kirishima quickly made his way towards them and punched it so hard that Mr. Aizawa was able to dodge it just in time.

But then another Nomu came barging towards him with full force into a nearby wall. Kirishima used his quirk, but still got crushed into the wall.

"Kirishima!" Some of their classmates cried out.

Todoroki tried to freeze the Nomu into place as it got away from him, but then an invisible Nomu held him up in the air. He tried to freeze him, but somehow the Nomu weakened his ice. Kaminari and some others tried to help their friends as Rena Rouge tried to process what was going on.

Then Rena Rouge noticed Skylar's eyes glowing nearby as she snuck by the Nomus. She tightened her fists, unable to understand why Skylar would do something like this. They were all here to help her out and become a hero, but clearly she never cared about any of them. She couldn't let her get away with this.

"Skylar..." Rena Rouge growled out.

Rena Rouge tried to run after her, knowing full well that she trying to escape U.A. She almost made it out, but then a Nomu tried to go after her. Without thinking about it, she soon launched over the Nomu and flipped over them. Before she knew it, another Nomu tried to stop her. Rena Rouge's eyes widened in terror as she managed to avoid getting grabbed.

She practically fell into the door and down the stairs as she made her way out of the dormitory. Rena Rouge could barely gather herself before running after Skylar. Once she spotted her, she couldn't help herself any longer. Rena Rouge gripped her fists, knowing full well that Skylar wasn't sticking around for much longer.

"Skylar! You won't get away with this!" Rena Rouge cried out.

Skylar gritted her teeth back at her, but ignored her. She knew that she wasn't as powerful as her, but Rena Rouge realized something in that moment. She wasn't even escaping from U.A., if anything she was running in the opposite direction. Rena Rouge then realized what was happening and felt her legs shaking. There was even a couple of Nomus launching towards U.A.

"Oh my gosh, Izuku!"


Earlier in the Nurse's Office...

Bakugo stirred in his sleep, realizing that he was still in the Nurse's Office. He opened his eyes, letting himself relax in his chair. He noticed Midoriya sleeping pretty quietly for once. He watched him sleep, feeling bad that he had to stay here for a while. His chest rose up and down as he snored but just barely.

Bakugo had to admit, watching him go through this was hard on him.

He never thought that Midoriya would ever go through something like this ever. Even when he found out about One for All, something about it was still weird to him. A quirk that could be passed down to anyone for generations was still a little weird to him at times. Then again, he's been through weird things already at this point.

He rubbed his eyes, trying to wake himself up. He had a slight headache for some reason, but it didn't bother him.

"You should head back to your dormitory Katsuki," Recovery Girl said to him, "I'll keep an eye on him. You should get some sleep."

Bakugo looked at Midoriya and noticed him stir a little in his sleep. Something about it worried him without even realizing it.

"Don't worry about me granny," Bakugo said back, "I'll be fine. I don't mind looking after him."

Bakugo looked at Midoriya and noticed him stirring around a little more. Then Bakugo soon noticed that he was sweating a little. He soon opened his mouth and reached out for his throat. Bakugo's eyes widened, realizing that he was dreaming again about that same nightmare. He squinted his eyes as if something hurting his throat as more sweat beaded down his forehead.

Bakugo got up to wake Midoriya up, but then he sat up straight with his eyes wide open. He felt he needed to catch his breath in that moment as he held his shirt. Something about it really bothered Bakugo that he couldn't do anything about these stupid nightmares. Whatever the dreams meant, they were clearly not just any regular ones.

Soon enough, Midoriya looked up to see Bakugo standing over him. He was still trying to catch his breath, but something was off about him this time around. Midoriya wasn't saying anything, and when he tried to nothing came out. Bakugo then noticed what was going on and soon grabbed him some water. Before he knew it, Midoriya had gulped it all down before he could process it.

Midoriya let out a gasp as he finished his cup of water but clearly still felt that burning sensation. Midoriya wiped his forehead, feeling a little overheated from this sensation. Bakugo realized that it was getting much worse. He wasn't sweating like this before, but now he was overheating as well. He kind of wished that Todoroki was here to help cool him down.

"K-Kacchan..." Midoriya said, barely able to talk, "S-Something's wrong..."

Before he could stop himself, Bakugo checked his forehead. He would normally never do that, but he had to do something to help him out. Bakugo noticed that he was burning up a little. He looked down at Midoriya's phone, wondering if he should call Marinette. Recovery Girl couldn't do anything to subside his quirk, just his fever.

Bakugo reached out for Midoriya's phone, catching his attention.

"Ka-Kacchan... W-What are you doing?" Midoriya asked him.

"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm calling Marinette," Bakugo told him, "She has to know what's going on. She may not have full power, but she might be able to help you."

Midoriya got up from his bed to grab his phone from him, but Bakugo tried to keep it away from him. Midoriya could barely move around without getting dizzy from being overheated.

"Izuku. You have a damn fever," Bakugo told him, "I have to call her whether you like it or not."

Midoriya hesitated as Bakugo tried to find her contact number. Before he could call her, he thought he spotted something in the corner of his eye. His eyes widened for a moment as something flew towards them. He squinted his eyes as he tried to get a good look at it through the window.

"Ka-Kacchan...?" Midoriya said to him, "Wha-What're you looking at...?"

Midoriya soon winced at his burning throat, realizing that it really was getting worse. He gripped on his shirt, feeling it spreading to his chest making it harder to breathe. Bakugo noticed him looking really lightheaded and could barely keep his head up. Then he looked back at the window, and his eyes widened in shock.

Without even thinking about it, Bakugo transformed and launched himself at Midoriya before there was even any impact. Then the wall and window shattered into rubble and debris as Bakugo and Midoriya fell to the floor. Before he knew it, Bakugo was holding Midoriya close to him so that he wouldn't hurt himself. He looked up to see that Midoriya was barely conscious. His eyes soon locked onto a couple of Nomus along with...

Skylar whose eyes were glowing bright blue.

Bakugo's eyes widened in shock, seeing her standing with the Nomus. But then he realized what was going on, feeling his grip tighten around his friend. He got up, using himself as a shield so they wouldn't get to Midoriya. Bakugo's eyes never left Skylar, knowing full well why she was here.

"I knew it. You're working with the League of Villains," Bakugo said to her through gritted teeth, "I should've known that you were up to no good."

Skylar didn't say anything as she stood up to him, but only seemed to care about Midoriya. She didn't even seem to be interested in Bakugo in any way. She kept looking over at Midoriya, but Bakugo kept getting in the way. That seemed to annoy her a lot, and Bakugo showed off his teeth towards her. He got ready to fight her, ready to let off some of his explosions.

"You won't lay a hand on Izuku," Bakugo growled at her and the Nomus, "You hear me?"

Skylar brushed a bit of dust off of her, which just made him all the more annoyed with her. Before he knew it, Skylar was right in front of him. He tried to dodge her attack, but it was so fast that he barely had any time to react to it. He managed to dodge a head on attack, but still got hit by the ribs. He felt that, but tried to light up an explosion.

Before he knew it, she avoided him so swiftly and punched him right in the gut. He felt that and nearly collapsed from the impact. Something about it felt so familiar like he had seen a quirk like hers before. Before he could process what it was, he tried to let off an explosion before she could make her way towards Midoriya. Then a Nomu came at him and grabbed his arm before he could let it off. The explosion hit the Nomu, but it seemed to absorb the blow pretty well.

Bakugo tried to get out of its grip, but it was so strong that it didn't even budge. He locked onto Skylar who was walking over to Midoriya. He somehow woke up and was barely able to move from being dizzy and overheated. Once he saw Bakugo however surrounded Nomus, his eyes widened in shock. Without thinking, he used One for All to face Skylar.

"Skylar. What the hell are you doing here?" Midoriya asked her in a demanding tone, "Why are there Nomu with you?"

Skylar didn't say anything, but for some reason looked concerned for him. She knelt down and felt his forehead.

"Hmm... You have a fever," Skylar said to him, "This'll be an easy mission then."

Midoriya and Bakugo were both confused in that moment, but Bakugo didn't give up without a fight. He tried to let off some explosions to get the Nomu off of him, but it wasn't letting up. It kept absorbing the blows one by one.

"Don't waste your time with that one," Skylar told him, "That nomu can absorb any type of quirk, including yours."

Bakugo gritted his teeth, trying so hard to get out of his grip. It wasn't budging, not even a little. He looked at Skylar and noticed that Midoriya was getting dizzy from being overheated. He tried to stand up with One for All, but could barely face her.

"Sk-Skylar... Wh-Why are you doing this?" Midoriya asked her, "I-I thought that... I thought that we were friends... Were we never even friends to begin with...? You were just using me all this time...?"

Skylar seemed thrown off by that comment, but then looked at her bracelet. Something about what he said hit her a little. She looked at Midoriya who was still struggling to stand up. Skylar looked confused for a moment, and Bakugo noticed this. Soon enough however, she shook it off and her glowing eyes intensified.

Before Bakugo knew it, Skylar launched at him. Midoriya instinctively used One for All to stop her from hurting him. He held her fists, feeling her quirk surge all around her. Somehow her quirk had gotten stronger, but Midoriya kept pushing as he used One for All as leverage. He felt sweat dripping down his forehead, but tried to push himself to stop her. Her glowing eyes got more intense that he could've sworn that there were sparks coming off of them.

Midoriya felt something off about her power as she kept pushing much harder. He tried to keep going, but soon felt sluggish. He tried to shake it off, but noticed that her quirk was getting stronger as she kept using it.

"I just had to meet you Izuku," Skylar said gritted teeth, "There's something about you that's just so... familiar. I had to know and understand why you felt so familiar all this time. Even when we fought back there in Gym Gamma, I felt it. Something about you... your quirk... It just feels so different and familiar from anything that I've ever faced before. I needed to know what it meant."

Midoriya's eyes widened in shock, not sure what to make of all of this. He could feel himself start to piece things together, but her quirk was making him feel all sluggish. His arms and legs weren't as strong as before and soon got dizzy from being overheated. His vision was blurring as he stared at her glowing blue eyes.

Bakugo gritted his teeth, realizing that Midoriya was in trouble. He kept letting off explosions, realizing that it couldn't take on so many at once. Soon enough, its grip loosened just as Midoriya passed out from exhaustion. Before Skylar could grab him, Bakugo gripped onto her wrist pretty tightly. She locked eyes with him, causing him to grit his teeth in anger.

After everything that has happened with her, he was starting to piece things together. Her quirk, this familiar feeling from said quirk, her father, and even her natural strength. She didn't even need her quirk to be strong and yet something about her felt off. She felt like something else entirely, and he knew what was going on. Bakugo couldn't stand this anymore, feeling that sickening feeling coming from her.

He couldn't even believe what he had just figured out. It was too much to even fathom what was going on with her.

"Skylar. I know what you are."

Skylar's eyes widened, stunned to even speak. He knew that he got her right where he wanted her in that moment. He let off an explosion around her wrist, causing her wince. For some reason however, it didn't hurt as much as she expected it would. Before she could even understand why, she went right for Bakugo.

He dodged her attack, but she was really fast on her feet. He watched her fight Midoriya so he knew that she was really quick when it came to combat fighting. He tried to block her moves and avoid her punches, but he could barely even throw a single punch at her. He tried to swing an explosion at her, but she hit a pressure point. That caused his arm to feel all sluggish, shocking him in the process.

Before he knew it, she punched him right at his other arm before he even had the time to send an explosion her way. Bakugo gritted his teeth, realizing that he was stuck. He couldn't get away from her, but he also couldn't carry Midoriya out of here. Bakugo soon realized that he was about to detransform, but he was willing to keep her away from Midoriya.

Skylar looked at him like she knew he wouldn't be a challenge at all. That only frustrated him even more.

"You were never a challenge to me. Not even without my quirk," Skylar told him.

Bakugo suddenly found himself in the grasp of a Nomu and couldn't get away. Skylar walked over to him, making Bakugo feel a little sluggish. He felt himself getting tired from just being near her. He tried to fight it, but she was getting stronger for some reason. Then he spotted something on the floor.

It was her bracelet.

Her eyes were glowing bright blue and sparks were even coming off of them. They were getting more intense as she kept fighting them as if she couldn't stop it from getting stronger. Bakugo's eyes widened, realizing that he couldn't defeat her. He tried to fight against her quirk, but he felt himself slipping away.

"Sk-Skylar... L-Leave Izuku... Out of this..." Bakugo gritted through his teeth.

Before he could pass out, a red and black polka dotted yo-yo came flying nearby Bakugo. He caught a glimpse of it, spotting Ladybug and a few other of her teammates standing up to Skylar and the Nomus.

Including Rena Rouge.

Bakugo could barely stay awake with Skylar's quirk activated, but knew that something wasn't quite right here.

"Let go of Katsuki, Skylar!"

Another amazing chapter!

This is what I've been wanting to lead this up to. Rena Rouge is facing off against Skylar without meaning to. She definitely didn't expect to run into Skylar like this. Nor did she expect to run into a bunch of Nomus. I really wanted things to be different, especially with Alya around. She didn't get to do much in the other sequel, so I thought that this would be a great way to bring her back into the story. These Nomus are pretty strong, so it won't be easy. Bakugo trying to protect Midoriya I found to be really wholesome. I really love it when Bakugo tries to stand up for him, or even try to protect him.

There's clearly a lot more going than you first think, especially with Skylar.

Ladybug and her teammates showed up?? What??

More to come soon!
