Chapter 5

Game Over

The Mist that was forming the portal begins to settle, and form a face, with glowing yellow eyes, as the final villain exits the mist.

"That's odd. According to the schedule we retrieved, All Might should be one of the teachers, but as far as I can tell, only Aizawa and Thirteen are present..." The mist's eyes narrow.

"Well, even if target ain't here, we should still be allowed to have some fun, right boss?" The red, robotic, villain asks the pale man next to them, as they crack their knuckles. Their voice is very robotic, and deep, obviously having been warped using a voice filter.

The pale, face-covered villain begins scratching his neck. "Well... it's only fair to assume a little child-killing will have to lure out our little pro, right?" The villain stops scratching. "Sure, why not."

The robotic villain grins under their mask. "Save the brat with the green color-palette for me!" I guess this is a good time for a more proper description of this villain. Their armor is red, with black segments connecting the joints. A massive graphic of a white skull covers their chest, and their face is hidden under a face-less mask, with weird black lines sneaking across their "face".

The bird-like villain, who's body-structure is not too different from All Might, growls, as saliva drips from their beak-like mouth. It has a pair of cargo shorts, and its arms are covered in red scars. But it's most unsettling features, are its blank eyes, and the missing patch of flesh and bone, exposing its brain.

"So you guys are the ones behind the break-in." Aizawa scowls down at the large collection of villains, who all are still moving forwards.

"These guys can't be real villains! How could so many have gotten into a U.A facility?!" Kirishima's forhead is glistening from his sweat.

Yaoyorozu steps forward. "Thirteen, why aren't the alarms going off?"

Thirteen looks up at the deactivated lights lining the dome. "I'm not sure."

"Is U.A itself also under attack, or is this the only place which has been invaded. If this is the only place they're attacking, then they must have someone among them who's messing with the security systems..." Todoroki scowls at the villains. "They planned ahead, and attacked an isolated building, far away from the actual school. They are fools to trespass here... but they're planning is impressive."

"You figured all of this out in less then a minute, but you can't notice a bomb missing from a room?" Todoroki scowls at Ben's snarky remark. "Most of these guys are small-fry. They're like chihuahuas. All bark, but no bite. The only ones I would be worried about are those four." Ben says as he narrows his eyes against the robotic villain, the bird, the mist, and the hand-covered one. "They are the chiefs. If anyone is going to do some real damage, it's them."

"And what makes you such an expert." Todoroki glares at Ben, but before Ben has time to respond-

"Thirteen, get the kids out of here, and contact the school..." Aizawa unravels his scarf, as it begins to snake around his body. "Actually, if they're negating the security system, they might be blocking our phone lines..." Aizawa turns to Kaminari. "Kaminari! Try to get in contact with the school with your quirk!"

"Uh... got it." Kaminari places a finger on a contraption strapped to his ear.

Aizawa walks up to the edge to the stairs when- "Wait, you're not going to fight them on your own are you?" Midoriya looks at his teacher with worry. "You specialize in stealth attacks, and one-on-one fights! Your quirk won't help against a group..." Aizawa looks at Midoriya for a few seconds before responding.

"Thank you for the concern... but you can't be a pro if you're a one-trick pony!" Midoriya is confused by Aizawa's statement, but doesn't really have a chance to reflect on it, before Aizawa speaks again. "Thirteen. I'll leave the children with you!" Thirteen nods, as Aizawa jumps off of the ledge, not making contact with a single step as he flies down towards the villains. Ben tries to follow, but Thirteen blocks his way.

"But-" Ben tries to object, but-

"You're not a plumber right now..." Thirteen whisper. "And, you're not a hero... You're a hero student..." Ben looks at Thirteen for a few seconds, before taking a few steps back. Ben looks down at Aizawa, who's still falling.

"Shooting squad! Gear up!" A man with gun barrels for fingers, and a large mask covering the upper-side of his face, calls out for two other villains, one resembling a naked frankensteins monster with a gas mask, and a woman, with weird rope-like hair.

"Who the hell's that?" Rope-hair asks.

"Don't know, but if he thinks he can take us down, he's out of luck." Gas mask responds.

Gun-barrel points his finger at Aizawa, who's running towards them, as Gas-mask's face begins to glow, and rope-hair's hair begins to flutter in Aizawa's direction.

'Not gonna happen!' Aizawa's eyes go red, as the villain's quirks are canceled out.

"Hey, what's up with my quirks?"

"Where's my bullets?"

"Ugh, what?"

Aizawa's scarf shoots out, and grabs the three members of the shoot squad, and throws them into the air, as they spin around, he pulls them towards the ground, and let's them crash into each other mid-air, knocking them out.

One of the villains narrow their eyes at Aizawa, before realizing something. "That's Ereser Head! If he looks at you, he can deactivate your quirk!"

"Cancelation, huh?" A four-armed villain with blue, rocky skin begins to run towards Aizawa. "That won't work on someone with a mutation-type quirk, like me!" The guy goes in for a punch, but Aizawa side-steps, and punches the villain in the face.

"You're right." Aizawa grabs the villain by the weist with his scarf- "But you're only a problem if you can get in close!" And swings him into the air, and brings him down to crash into a group of villains behind him, knocking out five of them, with only one attack.

"Huh... he'll be fine." Ben looks at Thirteen who nods at him.

"Now let's get out of here!" Thirteen and Ben run towards the rest of the class, who are moving towards the exit.

As the class near the exit, the purple mist from the center, begins to form before them. The students stop in their tracks, as the mist grows larger and larger. As it grows, it begins to reform into a large, humanoid shape, with large yellow eyes. "Hello students... I'm sorry to interupt your... attempt at an escape."

'Damn it. I blink, and the one who seems like the most trouble got away.' Aizawa looks up at the exit, where the mist villain is looking down at his class. Aizawa truns around, begins moving towards the stairs leading to his students, but a blast of energy burnst the ground before him, making him stop. He looks to his left, and sees the robotic villain, who's aiming some sort of weapon at him. The muzzle is smoking.

"You're not going anywhere... Eraser..."

The mist villain looks down at the children, as the mist around him continues to slither and whisp. "It is a pleasure to meet you all. We are the League of Villains... I hope you don-"

Ben snorts out a laugh. He looks up and sees the villain look at him, mildly confused. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Ben whipes his eyes. "But, who came up with that name?"

The mist villains narrows his eyes at the boy. "I would watch my tone if I were you."

Ben ignores him "That's like naming a superhero team 'The Justice League'." Ben settles down, still snickering lightly. "God, I'm sorry... go one with your speech." Everyone looks at Ben perplexed.

The mist villain clears his throat. "I hope you don't mind us intruding on your little... hero lessons..." The villain looks up at the dome. "Isn't this a fitting place for the symbol of peace... to meet his end?" The mist villain's eyes narrow. Ben's grin dies down.

'He's joking... right?' Ben narrows his eyes back at the villain.

"We were... informed that All Might would be here today, yet there seems to be no trace of him here... do you mind telling me why that is?" The villain's frame begins to grow, as his misty body spreads. "Oh well. I still have a job to do here."

Thirteen scowls at the villain, as a hatch on their index finger pops off, and the air molecules surrounding it begins to corrode. Before Thirteen has a chance to let their quirk go off-

"DIE VILLAIN!" Bakugo and Kirishima leap past Thirteen, as Bakugo sends an explosion into the mist, and Kirishima hardens his fist, and plunges it into the darkness.

"Like we were gonna let you hurt anyone here..." Kirishima grins as the smoke begins to settle.

"You two! MOVE!" Thirteen shouts at his two students, as the mist shuckles.

"You two are quite powerful." The mist grows larger and larger, as Bakugo and Kirishima back away. "It's about time someone teaches you it's not safe to play with those powers."

Thirteen pushes past the two teens, and points their finger at the villain, as Blackhole activates. "Get away from my students!" The villains misty body begins to get pulled into Thirteen's quirk.

"What a destructive power!" The mist begins to warp, forming a vortex. More mist forms behind Thirteen, as the power of their own quirk begins to tear at their suit.

"What?!" Thirteen's suit is being torn and ripped apart, and turned to dust. Thirteen deactivates their quirk. "Ahgh..." A massive laceration covers their back, as Thirteen tries to reach for the wound. "Agh!" Thirteen stumbles a little, before they fall forwards, their head hitting the ground, and a crack forms on their viser. "Ugh..."

"Now then children." The mist's body grows, and leaps forwards, consuming the students. "It's time you meet my comrades, AND YOUR DEATHS!" As the mist begins to pull away at the students, a flash of green light illuminates the darkness. A zoom of air zooms through the mist, as something tackles the mist's source. The villain falls backwards, as his mist slightly dissipates.

"Who are you-"

"Get away from them." Before the villain can get a look at the thing before him, it begins to zoom and spin around him, pulling the mist into a man-made vortex. The mist that was covering his classmates is now dissipating, as the villain's mist is forced to spin and spin, trapped in a tornado. The villain gets up weakly, as he tries to locate the one behind this.

'How are they this fast?' Suddenly, the villains grabs at their throat, as they gasp and struggle for air. 'Is he creating a vacuum just by running?!' The villain asks himself perplexed. "Agh... ugh... a-" The villain's struggles are put to an end, as he passes out from asphyxiation. He collapses onto his knees.

The one running stops, making the tornado vanish, and the mist to rematerialize around the villain's head. "That was easy!" XLR8 grins at his handywork. He looks back at his classmates. "Is everyone o... wait... where is everyone?!" XLR8 looks to where most of his classmates were and sees that only Iida, Mina, Sato, Hagakure, Sero, Koda, Shoji, Tokoyami, Uraraka and Thirteen were still present.

"I think... they were spread out." Thirteen struggles to speak, as blood runs from their back. Thirteen looks over at the many zones in the USJ. "They are all out there..." Thirteen coughs. "Fending for... themselves..."

The omnitrix begins to blink as a flash of light consumes Ben's body, turning him human again. 'Early time-out, huh.' As Ben begins to walk towards his remaining classmates, a jet of purple mist is blasted onto him, as he's consumed by the mist. The villain is grunting as he warps away Ben. He's barely conscious, but his spite keeps him going.

"Like I'd let you get away!" The villain struggles as he stands back up. The mist that's covering Ben dissipates, revealing that Ben is now completely gone.

"Where did you send him?!" Thirteen shouts with fury in their voice, as they point their finger at the villain.

"To his doom..." The villain answers mockingly, as Thirteen narrows their eyes.

"WHOAH!" Ben is falling through the air, spinning around. As Ben spins, he only sees flashes of his surrounding, although, it's enough for Ben to figure out where he's going. 'The waterzone!' Ben begins to dial through his aliens. 'I am NOT going to become a wet pancake. Come on Stinkfly!' Ben dials in a creature with four eye stalks and a wrinkly chin. Just as Ben is a few feet from the water, he transforms, becoming absorbed in green light.

Ben lands on the water back-first, as a loud slap is heard. "Owch..." Ben lies on the water's surface for a few seconds, before he begins to sink. A large red mark is covering his back, as he moans and whines. Ben finally returns to focus, as he inspects his body. His skin is grey, and scaly. Green fins line his arms and torso. His fingers have long shiny claws on them, and he has webbed fingers. He has large patches of black skin hanging from his waist, and gangly legs, with webbed toes. His head resembles an angler fish, with sharp teeth, a lure dangling from his forehead, and a nightmarish appearence. "Ripjaws? I guess this works... for now."

The black skin hanging from his waist contorts, and reforms, covering up his legs, as something that resembles a fishtail is formed. He begins to swim through the water at impressive speeds, in a random direction, hoping that he's heading towards land.

Ripjaws

He is very strong, and his teeth are sharp enough to slice through metal! He's a fish though, and can only survive on land for a short time. He can swim extremely fast, and the lure on his forehead can glow brightly in darkness.

'I've underestimated them... now that my class is seperated, each and every one of them is at risk... except for Bakugo and Todoroki, I guess.' Ripjaws looks around as he zigzags through the dark water. "I must find the villains in the center... if I can take out the boss, maybe the other villains will step off, and surrender."Ripjaws scowls in frustration. "If I had taken this more seriously, then this wouldn't have happened..."Suddenly, something tackles him mid-swim.

"What the hell?!" Ripjaws scowls at the person behind the attack. "Tsu?"

The frog-girl looks at her classmate in surprise, as she spots the symbol inbeded in Ripjaws' body. "Ben?"

"Ripjaws!" He corrects snarkily.

"That's a stupid name, ribbit." Ripjaws frowns at Tsu's remark. "Sorry I attacked you. I thought you were a villain."

"I see where you're coming from." Ripjaws looks around. "Did you find anyone else?"

"Nope. I've been on the move since I got here. Then I saw you and-"

"That part, I know." Ripjaws looks up. "We need to get back to land. I'm going to help Aizawa take down those villains." Tsu looks at Ripjaws, who's swiming towards the surface.

"That's not a good idea, ribbit!" Tsu says quite matter of factly, as she follows him upwards.

Ripjaws ignores her, as he, and Tsu, breaches the surface. "If I had taken things more seriously, that villain wouldn't have the chance to seperate us... now they're in danger... because of me." Tsu looks at Ripjaws for a few seconds.

"Not really." Ripjaws looks up at the frog girl. "That villain is really strong. He caught us all by surprise, ribbit." Tsu's face is as neutral is usual, despite the resolve in her voice. "All we can do now is move forwards, and try to save ourselves. There's no point in whining about the past." Despite her choice of wording seeming fairly harsh, Ripjaws can't help but smile at her short, yet motivating, speech. Ripjaws nods. Suddenly they feel the water around them bubble and shift. Ripjaws tackles Tsu out of the way, just as something leaps from the water, chomping down at Ripjaws, who blocks the attack with his arm.

"And that's why you always need to stay sharp." Ripjaws quips as he bites his opponent in the side, as blood splatters.

"AHH-" The villain screams. He looks like an anthropomorphic shark, with two breathing cylinders hanging from his back, which connect to a pipe leading into his maw. Ripjaws notices and grins, as he grabs the villain by the collar.

"What kind of shark-villain can't breath under water?" Ripjaws punches the villain in the gut.

"Ugh." The villain passes out from the pain.

"Welp... that was easy!" Ripjaws grins down at the villain.

"Too easy... ribbit." Tsu adds warily.

Ripjaws scratches his chin. "I guess you have a point... but..." The water around him begins to bubble again as a gang of villains rise from the depths, creating a ring around the two students. "Ah... I see..."

"He took out Sharkyonara!" A villain shouts, with grey, yellowish hair, and weird whisps around his eyes. "We need to take them out, now-" The villain leans forwards ready to attack, but the villain next to him blocks his path with an arm.

"Slow down Oxy..." The villain in question has a pale face, with neither nose nor hair. His face is actually pretty skull-like, with fishy details. He leans in and whispers something into his fellow villain's ear. Oxy seems irritated, but he keeps his opinion to himself.

Ripjaws looks at his foes with scepticism. He leans his head to whisper to Tsu, still looking at the villain. "I think they're scared of us."

"Ribbit?" Tsu questions her classmate through the goofy sound.

"They probably don't know what we're capable of. If they did, they wouldn't send you here, would they." Ripjaws thinks back to what Tsu said in the classroom: "Shipwreck huh. Now I can finally show off a little! Ribbit."

Tsu thinks about what he said, before realizing his point. "You're right. If they knew about our powers ahead of time, they would have sent me into the fire zone, ribbit!" She looks back at the villains before them.

"Even though we're both in our element here, we're surrounded." Ripjaws thinks for a few seconds. "Tsu." She looks at him. "Do you think you're strong enough to throw me into the air?" Tsu looks at him for a few seconds.

"With my tongue I could probably throw you a good few meters." The pauses. "Why?"

"I have a plan." Ripjaws grins.

"WHERE?!" Thirteen is screaming at the purple villain. They're barely standing, but Mina and Uraraka are supporting them. "Where are my students?!"

"They're with my... associates." The purple villain is now back in his legs, as he begins to regain his balance. The mist eminating from his head, still hasn't returned to its previous volume, revealing a fashionable suit and pants, along with a large neck-piece. The only parts that are covered in mist are his hands and head.

Iida, Shoji, Tokoyami, Sato and Sero are on the defensive, ready to attack of the villain tries anything. Mina and Uraraka are helping Thirteen. And Koda and Hagakure are trying to keep their distance from the villain, while still sticking by their classmates.

"Each an every one of them shall meet their end this day." The villain straightens himself, as the mist around him grows to consume his body. "No one will come to save them..." The villain narrows his eyes. "Or you..." Thirteen scowls.

"If you won't tell us, we will beat it out of you." A shadow-like creature, connected to Tokoyami, screeches at the villain, as it punches a fist into its palm.

"If you get to close, he'll pull you into the abyss." Tokoyami says with a scowl on his crow-like face. The shadow creature backs away from the misty villain in responce.

"I... if I..." Everyone turns to Thirteen. "If I fail to save them... then I will have failed them as their teacher... and a hero..."

"No, it's not your fault!" Mina shouts to Thirteen. "It was Bakugo, and Kiri that got in your way!"

"Don't blame yourself." Uraraka pats Thirteen's arm. Thirteen looks up at her students. Despite what's happening. Despite the prospect of death, they keep their cool. They're bravery is incredible.

'My... heroes...' Thirteen smiles under their visor. "I have a plan."

"Are you sure?" Tsu looks at Ripjaws, who nods. The villains are still keeping their distance. They must be waiting for the kids to make the first move.

"Unless we want to leave this building in body bags, we need to take a risk. If this works, we'll be out of here, scottfree..." Ripjaws looks at Tsu. "Do you trust me."

Tsu's quiet. She's considering her options. She looks at Ripjaws. Finally. "Ribbit." She nods.

Ripjaws smiles. "On my command." Ripjaws raises his hand. Immediately, the villains get on the defensive, all of them forming some kind of water construct or weapon. "Ready..." The skeleton-like villain forms a large water hand, which he raises into the air, just as Tsu grabs onto RIpjaws with her tongue. "Set..." The villain's close in, along with the massive water-arm. They've all almost reached their target. "NOW!" Tsu yanks Ripjaws upwards. Just as his body is out of the water, he hits the Omnitrix symbol, as a flash of light envelops him.

"Gotcha!" The villain crushes Ben in his grasp, as he smashes his fist into the water, creating a massive wave of water to form.

"BEN!" Tsu shouts, as her classmate is crushed.

Just as the other villains are about to reach Tsu, the water around them begins to grow cool. Ice forms around them, as the water's surface hardens and freezes. The villains are stopped in their tracks as the water surrounding them begins to freeze.

"W-what the hell?!"

"What's happening?"

"S-s-so c-c-cold..."

Suddenly, close to the skeletal villain, green fire shoots out from the ice, as a yellow-colored alien rises from the flames. He lands on the ice in a hero pose, his hand planted on the ice. He grins. He has a humanoid body, with sharp, claw-like fingers. He doesn't have any eyes on his face, and instead have very large, bat-like ears. His body is lines with green eyes. His arms, his torso, his hands! No one could sneak up on this guy. "Eye Guy, huh! Eye was going for Cannonbolt, but eye'm not complaining!" Eye Guy laughs at his puns, as Tsu rolls her eyes.

"Not funny."

"You're right! It's very funny!" Eye Guy grins, as the ice under him begins to shake. Suddenly, it explodes into a new water-limb, provided by the skeletal villain.

"Don't think eye'm done yet!" The villain in question shouts, as the ice around him shatters, and he grins at his own pun.

"Really now!" Eye Guy grins, as he points his hand at the villain, the eye in his palm begining to glow and spark. A blast of electricity is shot at the villain, who blocks with his water arm.

Eye Guy

He is covered in eyes, allowing him to see everything and anything from every direction. He also had enhanced hearing. The eyes are capable of generating energy blasts, which varying effects, ranging from electricity, flames and ice!

The villain climbs onto a large chunk of ice. He forms another water arms, which he extends to attack Eye Guy with, who flips to the side, and blasts the arm with green fire from his hands, making the arm evaporate. "Eye hope eye'm not too hot for ya'!" The villain scowls, as he forms a new water construct under the ice Eye Guy is standing on. Eye Guy notices, and jumps into the air, just in time for to avoid the arm to shoot out. Eye Guy blasts it with a green energy beam, creating an explosion, and destroying the arm.

As Eye Guy lands, he spots something. One of his back-eyes has spotted Tsu, who's quievering. She looks tired... like she's about to pass out any second. 'Frog powers, equals frog weaknesses. Crap!' Eye Guy begins running towards Tsu, but the ice before him explodes, as the villains ice arm attacks again. "Woah!" Eye Guy flips over the water construct, but it rises and reforms to form a sharp blade, trying to stab into him mid-air. Suddenly, Tsu shoots her tongue out, still on the werge of passing out and pulls Eye Guy out of the way, narrowly avoiding the the attack. The knife follows, but Tsu pulls Eye Guy out of the way again, and the blade stabs into her tongue instead.

"Ow-"

"Get back here!" The villain runs after the alien, who combines three of their back-eyes and shoots him with another blast of energy. The villain forms another water construct from his arm, and blocks the blast, which instead of heating it up, begins to cool it. The water arm begins to freeze, as the ice creeps along the water, it reaches the villain's actuall arm, which begins to strain. "What the-" The ice continues to grow. He forms another water construct around his other arm, in an attempt to crush the ice, but the ice just spreads to the new water-arm. The ice spreads along his whole body, stopping only at his head.

"If you stay put..." The villain looks at Eye Guy, who's now leaning over Tsu. "I won't freeze your face shut." Although it's hard to take a walking eye factory seriously, his serious tone unnerves the villain, who decides it's best to stay put.

Eye Guy begins to release heat from his body, which begins to soften the ice around Tsu, and evaporate the cold water on her. "Ugh..." Tsu gets up tiredly. "I'm cold..."

"Eye'm sorry about that." Eye Guy helps Tsu to her feet.

Tsu looks at Eye Guy with a deadpan expression. "I hate puns." Eye Guy tries to loosen his non-existent collar.

"Tough crowd..." Eye Guy helps Tsu to her feet, as the Omnitrix blinks, and a flash of light forces Ben back into his human form. "Let's get out of here. Care to help me to land?"

"If you stop with the puns." She says, still with a deadpan expression.

"I'm not Eye Guy right now, am eye?" Ben raises his hands in self-defense.

Tsu rolls her eyes again, as she wraps her tongue around his waist, and jumps into the water, dragging him along. Tsu swims along the surface, so that she doesn't drown Ben. She swims pretty fast, as the shipwreck, and the villains are pretty far away now. "You were amazing back there." Tsu says.

Ben looks at her for a few seconds, before smiling. "You were great too!" She looks at him. "If you hadn't saved me, I would have ended up as an eye-covered kebab. No matter how little you did, you still did something, while being on the verge of passing out too, and I'm in your debt." Ben grins at her. Tsu looks at him, as she returns her gaze forwards.

"Thanks." A small smile sneaks across her face, as she thanks her classmate... No... her friend!

"B-but... I can't in good faith leave you here!" Iida says to his teacher.

"If you don't, then the odds of your classmates getting out of here alive, are low..." Thirteen says. "If you can escape, then you can get to the school, and get my fellow pro heroes here!"

"Iida, please!" Uraraka adds, as the rest of their class look at him with pleading eyes.

Iida looks down at his feet. "But... if I leave you here-"

"Then you can get help, and ensure that innocent people will survive." Thirteen places a hand on Iida's shoulder. "Today I said you would learn how to use your power to save people..." Iida looks up at his teacher. "Lesson number one: Don't feel remorseful for saving others." Iida is looking at Thirteen, in mild confusion. "You don't want to go, because you feel that you'll leave us behind. But if you do go, then the villains, will have failed. You came here to be a hero... right?" Iida's taken back by Thirteen's quiestion.

He looks at his teacher for a few seconds. He nods. "Ok... I'll do it..." Thirteen nods back.

"I'm aware that your options are limited, but how foolish do you have to be to conspire infront of your opponent?!" Mist's body grows once more, as an array of misty, tendril-like appendages are sent towards the class.

Just as the mist is about to hit them, the shadow-thing appears again from Tokoyami's abdomen, and fans the mist away. Iida activates his engines, as he starts running. The villain forms more tendrils and mist, but the shadow moves in close and punches the villain, making him loose focus. Sato, the dude with weird lips, chugs a cup of sugar, as he runs at the villain, and tackles him. The villain consumes the boy in mist, but sero, the elbow-dude, shoots a long strand of thick tape from a gap in his elbow, and pulls Sato away from the villain before he gets warped.

The villain lands on his back, as Mina and Uraraka strike together, Uraraka touching the villain, making him weight-less, and Mina blasting him with acid. He tries to regain his composure, and cocks his arm back to send out a jet of mist at Iida, who's halfway to the exit, but another line of tape hits his arm, throwing off the villain's aim. Sato grabs the piece of tape, and begins swinging the villain far away from where Iida was. As Sato begins to swing the villain downwards, Uraraka releases her quirk, as the villain is slammed into the concrete with great force.

Iida reaches the exit, and with a powerful kick, breaks open the door, as he rushes off to U.A.

The villain grunts as he looks up at the open door. "Damn... I must report to Shigaraki..." The villain's body warps, as he skrinks into himself, and vanishes.

The pale villain scratches his neck as he looks at his robotic associate struggles with taking out Aizawa. Knocked out villains lay on the ground. Only a few villains are still standing, and most are keeping their distance.

The robot thrusts some odd-looking laser-dagger, that's connected to their right arm, towards Aizawa's stomach, but he leaps over it, and kicks the villain's face, and tries to grab the with his scarf, but the villain catches it mid-air. They yank it, trying to pull Aizawa in close, but he punches them in the face, making them stumble backwards. They kick Aizawa in the stomach, and he backs away. The villains runs up to him as they pull out their pistol again, aiming it at Aizawa. It resembles a glock, but the muzzle is rectangular, and the slide resembles a rail, used in furniture construction. muzzle begins to glow red, as a blast of energy is shot at the pro, who dodges by sidestepping, letting the shot glide past him.

"Stop moving." The villain puts the weapon back into its holster, and instead, produces a sphericle device from their palm. It's grey, with indents and buttons covering its surface. The villain taps a few of the buttons, before a large red light begins to blink. The device begins to vibrate, as the villain places the device on the ground, as small rods shoot out of it, all pointing in the pro's general direction. Suddenly, the ground under Aizawa begins to part and crack, as what feels as an earthquake throws him off his feet.

"What the hell..." Aizawa scowls. The villains surrounding him grin.

"Now's our chance!"

"Get 'em!"

"Hee-yaa!"

The villain's start running at him as the device shuts off, quirks up and running. Aizawa immediately activate's his quirk, as his hair stands on end. He jumps over a guy going in for a punch, but Aizawa wraps his scarf around him, and as he lands, he yanks the villain into the air. Another villain with a venus flytrap for a head, tries to chomp him up, but Aizawa slides inbetween his legs, pulling the last villain along with him, making the plant-like fellow get thrown off his feet by his fellow villain's body.

A villain with massive horns and light-blue skin charges at him, but Aizawa rolls to the side, and wraps his scarf around the villain's leg, making him fall flat on his face. Another villain, seemingly made out of paper and eyes, throws pieces of glowing, red paper at Aizawa, but he dodges, and proceeds to deactivate his foe's quirk. He then runs up to the villain and kicks it in the leg, causing it's knees to buckle, and for it to fall forwards, in a rolling motion.

"Now quip!" Someone whispers, out of the pro's and villain's sight. Ben and Tsu are peeping out at Aizawa from the waterzone, trying their best to stay unnoticed.

"He doesn't seem like a quipy guy." Tsu remarks.

"Yeah, but it would have been a perfect moment. The dude collapses, and he says: 'Watch your step...' That would have been great!"

Just as Ben says this, purple mist begins to form near the hand-covered villain. The mist twists and reforms until the mist villain's body has fully meterialized.

"Ah, Kurogiri..." The pale villain continues to watch Aizawa fight it out as he speaks to his associate. "I hope you bring good news."

"I'm sorry to inform you that it's the contrary." The mist villain, or Kurogiri, responds. "One of the students were able to escape me, and is now traveling to U.A. for reinforcements..." The pale villain looks at Kurogiri, taking a few seconds to take in what he just said.

The pale villain begins to scratch his neck. But as he does, slowly, it goes from scratching, to clawing, to riping. He's itching like a madman, making his skin red, and nearly drawing blood. "Damn you Kurogiri... If it weren't for the fact that you're our warp gate, I would turn you to dust!" Suddenly... he stops. He settles down. "Uh... guess it's game over... if the heroes get here, they'll overpower us... even Nomu can't stand up against so many pros, especially if All Might's with them... I guess we should head home..."

"Is he serious?" Tsu can't believe it. She smiles.

"I'm not so sure..." Ben mumbles.

The villain looks at the robotic villain, who's glaring at Aizawa, who's still fighting villains. "Hey, red!" The robotic villain turns to him. "Can you speed things up? We're leaving!"

"He's f*cking tough! I'm not leaving until he's f*cking dead!" Red shouts at him. The pale villain narrows his eyes at Aizawa, who just kicked a villain in the throat. The pale villain is watching him closely. The villain continues to keep his focus on Aizawa. Aizawa tackles a villain to the ground, as he flips backwards to dodge a villain attacking from behind him. The pale villain looks closely on his hair... almost... almost...

'NOW!' The pale villain speeds from where he was just standing, running at incredible speed, crashing into Aizawa. Before the pro can react, the villain grabs the hero's left arm, as Aizawa's skin begins to dry and crack. "You're amazing Eraser... but you're too obvious..." Aizawa scowls, struggling to free himself from the skinny man's impressively strong grip. "It's your hair." Aizawa is taken back by the fact that the villain has figured him out. "When your quirk activates, your hair stands on end... and when it turns off... well..." Aizawa's skin continues to crack. He's too tired to fight back. "Guess what... game over!" The villain grins under his hand-mask.

Aizawa grunts, as he knees the villain in the groin, stunning him. Aizawa finally frees himself from his enemy's grip, as he punches the villain in the face with his right arm. Aizawa backs away from the villain, who's backing away as well. Red looks at Aizawa. Aizawa stumbles backwards as he sighs wearily.

'Now's my chance! He's weak!' Red charges at Aizawa as the laser-dagger reforms from their right hand. Aizawa looks at them, and ducks just as they slice at him. Aizawa manages to kick Red in the knee. They begin to kneel forwards out of pain, and anger. They try to stab down at Aizawa, but he somersaults backwards, avoiding Red's attack. Red's dagger gets dug into the ground. Instead of struggling to pull it out, they let the dagger deform, as they get up.

Aizawa gasps for air. His hero costume is drenched in his sweat. Red gets back up, as they pull out their pistol, and shoots at Aizawa, who doesn't have time to dodge. The blast of energy slices through his right elbow, making him cry out in pain. Red grins under their mask. 'Finally, got a good hit in.' Red begins closing in on Aizawa, aiming at his head. "Let's finish this, shall we?" Red gets ready to pull the trigger when a bright flash of green light catches their attention.

"How about you mess with someone your own size!" Suddenly, a humanoid entity tackles Red to the ground. Red looks up at their attacker and sees a humanoid with a black body, with green circuitry covering his body. It's Upgrade! "I hope you don't mind me rigging your suit."

"YOU!" The villain's right arm begins to warp, as wires, circuits and pieces of metal twist around its hand, forming a bizarre gauntlet made from exposed wires and large chunks of metal. Red plunges the gauntlet into Upgrade's stomach, as a powerful blast of electricity blasts Upgrade off of Red.

"Ugh..." Upgrade strokes their head, as Red gets up from the ground. "Do I know you?" Upgrade jumps to his feet.

"Aw, I thought we were close..." The villain presses a button in the back of their mask. "Ben!" The mask unravels using some kind of nano-tech, as the voice-changer deactivates. Upgrade gasps as he sees their face.

"ROJO?!" Staring back at the slimy alien, is a woman, with a pale face, black lip-stick, and maroon hair.

She grins at him maniacally. "Aw, you remember me." The gauntlet begins to twist, as more metal and wires grow from the suit, turning her gauntlet into what looks like a f*cking railgun! She aims her weapon at Upgrade as it crackles to life. "How sweet!" A ball of yellow energy forms on the tip of the weapon, as static electricity shoots in all directions. Upgrade slinks out of her aim, but she follows him with the gun, as he tries to slink in close. The ball on the tip blasts off, barreling towards Upgrade.

Upgrade reforms his body, creating a hole through his chest, letting the ball of energy pass though him. Upgrade turns around, and sees the ball travel in a straight line towards the wall to the landslide zone. As the ball hits one of the piles of debri, creating a yellow explosion composed of fire and electricity, reaching high up, as the mushroom cloud reaches to the ceiling of the USJ.

The ground begins to shake lightly, as the air at the Landslide zone begins to twist and push around, creating massive gusts of wind, comparable to those of a hurricane, throwing debri around. Suddenly, a massive shockwave zooms from the landslide zone, reaching to the exit, pushing against everyone in the USJ, throwing them for a loop, as Upgrade's body begins to destabilize by the static energy in the air. The only person in the center not reacting to the shockwave is the bird villain, who hasn't moved since they got here.

"HOLY SHIT!" Rojo shouts with a maniacal laughter. "YOU ARE F*CKING DEAD!"

"And so are you if you actually hit me!" Upgrade shouts back at her. She pauses, and considers what he just said...

"You have a point..."

"Tennyson, get out of here!" Aizawa kick's Rojo in the back, making her fall forwards, as he shouts at Ben.

"Cool off teach! It's fine. If she knows what's best for her, she won't use that thing again."

Rojo scowls at him. Rojo looks over at the pale villain. "Oy, Shigaraki!" The pale villain, or Shigariki, who's still aching from Aizawa's mercyless kick and the powerful shockwave, looks up at her. "Sick your pet at Eraser!"

Shigaraki is looks at her for a few seconds. "Nomu!" The bird, or Nomu, jerks. "Kill the pro!" Suddenly, a new shockwave is felt, this one is a lot weaker however, but still powerful. Nomu is now gone from where he was just standing, leaving only a flowing cloud of dust behind. Suddenly, Nomu appears behind Aizawa, who turns around. Nomu grabs him in a chokehold, squeezing his windpipe shut. The thing licks its lips, as it raises a fist. It cocks his hand back, and punshes Aizawa's goggle's off, sending blood in all directions.

"AIZAWA!" Upgrade rushes at the villain, but Rojo kicks him to the ground. She raises her railgun into the air, intending to crush him with it, but he shoots his right arm forwards and grabs a hold of the mess of wires, as his arm takes on a liquid state, and slithers across the railgun. She struggles to free her weapon from his grasp, but green electricity begins to shoot in all directions, as Upgrade rips the weapon from her suit.

"You little shit." She cocks her arm back, as red electricity begins to dance along her fingertips. She lunges forwards, as she tries to plunge her arm into Upgrade's chest, but he uses the remains of her railgun to back-hand her away. Upgrade's arm grows to consume the entire weapon, as it begins to jolt and change. The clutter of parts and wires, begins to take on a more proper form. The tip of the gun begins to form claws. Like the ones of a crab. Upgrade looks at Nomu, who's pinning down Aizawa. Ben turns to the villain and rushes at him.

"GET AWAY FROM MY TEACHER!" Nomu looks up at the alien running at him. Upgrade cocks his railgun-arm back, and jumps into the air. Nomu reaches his hand forwards, intending to grab and crush the kid's arm. Ben plunges the device into Nomu's grasp, as electricity and energy build up. A green sphere of energy forms, burning a hole through the Nomu's palm, as it screams in pain and fury. The ball explodes, but instead of creating an explosion rivlaing that of a nuke, Upgrade manipulates the surge of energy, and converting the explosion into a blast of electricity, that burns into the monster's arm.

Smoke and static shoots in all directions as lacerations form around the monster's bulky arm. The thing steps away from Aizawa's weak body, as it tries to pull away Upgrade. As his arm grabs Upgrade by the neck, his arm passes through it, as Upgrade's has taken on the properties of slime. Suddenly, a very unpleasens sound fills Upgrade's ears.

*Beeb* *Beeeb* *Beeeeb* *Beeeeeeb*

"NO!" Upgrade let's loose a massive surge of power, sending the Nomu crashing backwards, and crashing into a nearby wall. The last beeb is heard as Ben detransforms. "That was close..."

"Yeah... it was." Ben turns around to see a grinning Rojo. Ben backs away from her. Then, a lightbulb goes off in his head. He pulls the disk hanging from his belt off its hanger, as he grins at it. Rojo runs at him, as she reforms her laser dagger. Ben drops the disk. As it's about to hit the ground, it stops in mid-air and begins to float. It opens up and grows into what has the general shape of a skateboard, with transparent glow to it, with a circuit-like design covering it.

Ben jumps onto it, just as Rojo jumps forwards to tackle him. He glides to the side, letting her jump past him, but she stops in her tracks and turns around, trying to stab him again, but this time, he flies over her, hovering over the ground on his board. His hover-board! He puts his thumb to his noce and blows rasberries at her. She shouts after him, as the under-sides of her shoes begins to glow and burn the ground. She takes off into the air with her rocket-boots! She takes off after him. Ben turns around and sees that she's catching up.

She closes in, and is about to stab him in the leg, but he dodges with a f*cking back-flip, as he begins to fall towards the ground, the hover-board flies in a loop, flying over him, and ending up under him. He lands on it, as Rojo turns around, and flies at him again. She boosts her speed, closing in on Ben, but this time, Ben jumps over her, stepping on her back, and landing on the board again, as she crashes into the ground, and passing out from the pain and exhaustion. "Don't f*ck with me!" Ben grins down at the villain.

Shigaraki scowls at him from under him. He crouches down, ready to jump and destroy the kid's board when-

"DIE YOU VILLAIN!" From out of nowhere, Bakugo lands from the heavens like a falling angel and blasts the villain away with an explosion. Shigaraki is thrown forwards, as he faceplants into the ground, his hand-mask falling off his face.

"Bakugo! Nice to see 'ya!" Ben shouts down at him from above.

"SHUT UP!" Bakugo shouts up at the flying student. Following Bakugo is a fired up Kirishima and a worried Midoriya.

"Hey guys!" Midoriya and Kirishima look up at Ben.

"You're flying?!" Kirishima and Midoriya ask simultaneously.

"Yeah!" Ben crouches down and pats his board. "It's a hover-board!"

"Awesome!" The two respond in unison.

"I'm getting really tired with you brats ruining our fun..." Shigaraki struggle to his feet. He looks at the students with hateful eyes. His face is crusty and dry, with cracked lips, and deep bags under his eyes. "Kurogiri!" Shigaraki shouts for his partner, but he doesn't get a responce. Kurogiri?" He turns around to where Kurogiri was standing, and sees that his warp gate is incased in ice.

"Don't think I would let you seperate us again!" Todoroki walks out from behind Kurogiri, his arm glissening from the cold air eminating from his palm.

"Damn it..." Shigaraki places his hands on his head. "This wasn't supposed to happen... this isn't what I wanted... This. Is... WRONG!" Shigaraki screams at the top of his lungs, as the ground under them all begins to shake. Nomu flies through the air, his eyes focused on one thing. Ben. He stops, and jumps high, cracking the ground from under him, flying high into the air, as he screams. Just as he's about to reach Ben, a glacier is formed, consuming Nomu, and stopping his decent.

Ben looks at the massive wall of ice, and looks back down at Todoroki... "T-thanks... Todo..." Todoroki sighs, as cold air comes from his mouth.

"Don't mention it..." Todoroki says in a tired tone. Ben begins to hover down to the ground.

"Well... looks like Nomu, Rojo and warpy is out for the count. Now the only one left is-"

"ME!" Shigaraki tackles Ben, grabbing a hold of his neck and left arm. Shigaraki slows himself and Ben down by digging his soles into the ground. While doing so, he spins around, gliding to a stop while presenting his hostage to the other kids. "If you come any closer, I'll turn his windpipe to DUST!" Shigaraki is holding Ben by the neck, the only finger not making contact with Ben's neck being his ring finger. The other students back away, besides Bakugo, who stands his ground, but doesn't move any closer.

Shigaraki adjusts his hand to put his thumb to Ben's chin, making Ben look at him. "You've been a real pain in my ass, kid!" Shigaraki pulls up Ben's arm, presenting the watch. "First goes the valuables!" Shigaraki puts all his fingers to the Omnitrix. Suddenly, the watch begins to glow and whirr. Static creeps from the watch, as Shagaraki's hand begins to burn. A massive surge of energy, blasts Shigaraki away from Ben, as Ben is thrown into the glacier. The surge of energy glowing stronger and stronger, throwing up dust and steam. After about ten seconds, the blast of energy comes to an end.

Shigaraki shouts in fury as he jumps into the massive cloud of dust and steam, trying to get a grip on Ben's weak, soft and, soon to be, destroyed body. But he doesn't find anything soft, or weak, or even anything warm. What he does feel, is cold, hard and tough, as something has a bone-shattering grip on his wrist. Out of the dust rises a man with a massive frame. His body is turcoise, and his skin is hard, like rock, but shiny, like diamond. He has two spikes growing from his back. His head is very jagged, with a large spike on the end of it, and a massive lower jaw. He grins down at the villain.

"Meet, Diamondhead!" Diamondhead kicks Shigaraki in the stomach, sending him tumbling backwards. Diamondhead cracks his knuckles as he fans away the mist surrounding him. Shigaraka struggles to his feet, as he blasted from the back by Bakugo again, before he hits the ground, Kirishima jumps in the way, and hardens his fist, and punches Shigaraki in the face. Shigaraka tries to get up, but his hands are frozen to the ground. Shigaraki spits up blood, as he struggles against Todoroki's ice.

Diamondhead walks up to his classmates. and looks down at the villain. "That was easy." Diamondhead turns to look at Aizawa, who's lying in a pool of blood. "We need to get Eraser out of here!" As he says this, Tsu crawls out of the water, and wanders up to her teacher, checking if he's okay. "TSU!" She looks up at Ben. "Can you get him to Thirteen?" Tsu nods, as she wraps her tongue around her teacher's torso, as she begins moving towards the exit. "Good job guys!"

"I don't need you to tell me that!" Bakugo screams at the crystal-like alien, who just responds with a thumbs up. Suddenly, the glacier behind the begins to crack.

"Huh?" It jerks, and shakes, as the crack begins to spread. "Oh no..." Suddenly, Nomu blasts out from the ice, with a mighty roar. It crashes into the ground, kicking up dust, blinding the students. Before Nomu has time to attack one of them, Diamondhead plunges his arm into the ground, and forms a large dome to trap the Nomu. It's out of the same material he's made from. We'll just call it diamond for now.

As the dust settles, Nomu is gone, supposedly stuck in the diamond-dome. "That won't hold for long!" On cue, the dome is blasted into pieces, as the Nomu tackles Diamondhead to the ground. It lifts its fist upwards, and punches, creating a massive crater under his head. Diamondhead digs his fingers into the ground, forming two massive diamond pillars, crushing the Nomu.

The Nomu manages to push away the pillars, and plant its foot on Diamondhead's... well... head. Diamondhead grabs the Nomu's foot and throws him into the air. Not very high, but high enough to send him crashing into the glacier leaning over them. The glacier begins to crack even more, letting massive chunks of ice to fall downwards towards the students. Diamondhead forms a ceiling of diamond to protect his fellow students. Ice crashes onto the diamond barrier, as the chunks are smashed into pieces by the diamond's hard surface.
