Chapter 159 - 15-17

Chapter 15: All Might

A recap of the previous episode started while Midoriya narrated, "We were all, even the teachers, covered by the darkness of evil and fear. The deeper the darkness, the more dazzling the light shines." 

Opening plays. 

 

"When All Might's not smiling, you know shit's gonna go down." Kaminari whispered.

"Shit did go down, Kaminari." Kirishima confirmed.

"Damn, I wish I could've seen it!" Kaminari shook his fist.

"It'll probably show it in this episode." Midoriya pointed out.

"Then shut up, you damn nerd!" Bakugo yelled.

 

All Might walked by the students and Thirteen at the entrance, the students smiling at the sight of All Might. 

"I had a bad feeling, so I tore myself away from my chat with the principal and came. I passed Young Iida on my way and got a rough idea of what had happened." All Might explained, gritting his teeth, 'Good grief, it really makes me angry. Thinking how frightening it must have been for the children… And how hard my juniors fought… But that is why I must proudly say-' 

All Might stomped his foot, the dust on the floor getting blown back as All Might stood at the top of the stairs. 

"It's fine now!" All Might announced, tearing his tie off, announcing his catchphrase, "I am here!" 

"All Might!" Mineta cried. 

"Ribbit…" Asui said, holding Midoroya in her tongue. 

"All… Might…" Midoriya stared, observing, "He's not smiling." 

"I've been waiting, hero. You trash of society." Shigaraki stood up, holding his hands out as his attention shifted from the three to All Might.

"Yeah, All Might!" the class cheered while All Might smiled in relief.

"I love this fight!" Kirishima beamed.

 

All Might threw his suit to the side. 

"That's All Might…?" 

A group of villains that were once unconscious watched All Might. 

"It's my first time seeing him in person!" 

"He looks so intimidating…" 

"Idiots, don't hesitate! If we kill that, we'll-" one villain exclaimed at the others. 

In mid sentence, All Might had jumped from where he was and landed a punch on him before doing the same to the other villains until he made his way to Eraser Head, picking him up carefully. 

 

"I'm so sorry I couldn't get there sooner, Aizawa." All Might apologized as the TV showed Aizawa's injuries.

"At least you come, I'm not sure what would've happened if you didn't." Aizawa explained.

"I don't want to think about it." All Might looked at the class in front of him.

 

In a blink of an eye, All Might grabbed Midoriya, Asui and Mineta away from Nomu and Shigaraki, the force of the wind making the hand on Shigaraki's face fall off. 

"Everyone, go to the entrance. I'm leaving Aizawa to you. He's unconscious. Hurry!" All Might instructed them, Eraser Head lying unconscious next to him. 

"Y-Yes, sir!" Mineta saluted. 

"Ribbit." Asui replied. 

Midoriya started at him whispering, "All Might…" 

 

"Midoriya, you should've been helping Tsu and Mineta with Aizawa Sensei, not staring at All Might!" Iida yelled at him.

"I-I know, I'm sorry!" Midoriya replied.

"Midoriya was concerned for All Might." Asui pointed out.

"Hearing someone wants to kill your mentor is some heavy stuff." Kirishima agreed.

 

"-sorry, Father…" Shigaraki muttered, trying to find the dead hand. He picked up the hand, and placed it back on his face, sighing. 

 

"What's this guy's obsession with hands on him? Kinda creepy." Ashido shivered.

"Agreed." Kaminari turned to him.

 

"He hit me as he was saving them." Shigaraki laughed as he muttered, "It's the violence of a government official. He's fast, as expected. I can't follow him with my eyes. But not as fast as I thought he'd be. I guess it's true, after all…" 

Under the hand, a shadow formed on Shigaraki's face as he grinned, "...that he's getting weaker." 

 

Some of the class cringed when they saw his face.

"First time I've seen what this villain looks like and I just need to say, he needs chapstick, real bad." Hagakure shivered, the rest of the class nodding.

"Midoriya! You almost spilled the secret again!" Kaminari shouted when on TV Midoriya was warning All Might about One for All before glancing at Asui and Mineta.

 

"-a punch that didn't break my arm, but he didn't even twitch. He's gotta be-" Midoriya explained to All Might, Mineta and Asui putting a finger on their chin. 

"Young Midoriya!" All Might interrupted him. Holding a peace sign to his face, All Might smiled, "It's fine!" 

Midoriya stared at All Might before nodding. He and Mineta carried Eraser Head away while Asui walked next to them. All Might watched the three go before turning to Nomu and Shigaraki, running at them at full speed. 

"Carolina…" 

"Nomu." Shigaraki summoned, Nomu standing in front of him. 

"...Smash!" All Might sliced the air with his hands, sending the water flying, but Nomu didn't budge. It looked up at All Might before trying to grab at him, who ducked in time, commenting, "It seriously has no effect at all, huh?!" 

All Might punched at Nomu's gut this time, but it still wouldn't budge. 

"In that case-" All Might punched Nomu in the face multiple times before it roared at him, reaching to grab him, All Might jumping back, questioning, "It doesn't work on his face, either, huh?" 

Nomu caught up to All Might, the two of them exchanging blows. 

"It doesn't work because of shock absorption. In order to cause damage to Nomu, it would be most effective to slowly gouge out his flesh. Whether he'd let you do that or not is a different issue, though." Shigaraki laughed. 

"Thanks for telling me all that!" All Might yelled, dodging Nomu's fist. 

 

"If he wanted to defeat All Might, then why did he tell him that Nomu's weakness?" Ojiro thought out loud.

"Do you want All Might to be defeated?!" Mineta cried.

"No, no! It's just, if you want your opponent to be beaten, you shouldn't tell them your weakness." Ojiro explained.

"That's a very good observation, Young Ojiro!" All Might praised him.

 

Smoke came from where All Might smashed Nomu's head into the ground. 

"Hey, hey." Shigaraki whispered, covering himself from the wind. 

"All right! Take that! Those guys are underestimating All Might too much!" Sato yelled, watching the scene. 

"How did he make a suplex look like an explosion?!" Mineta asked, adding, "All Might's on a whole nother level!" 

"Even though he's a rookie teacher who can't teach without looking at his notes." Asui pointed out. 

 

The class bursted out laughing, All Might chuckling along.

"I'm sorry if I offended you, All Might." Asui turned around.

"No, no. You're fine, Young Asui." All Might reassured her.

"You really called him out, Tsu." Jiro laughed.

 

'-nothing we can do right now. Instead, if anyone gets held hostage, we'd be worse than in the way. Rather than wondering about the villains, we have to trust All Might!' Midoriya thought to himself. 

"Get 'em! Aim for the balls!" Mineta yelled out. 

 

The class sighed.

"What? I was just trying to help!" Mineta defended his past self.

"You help in a very unique way." Hagakure pointed out.

 

'But I know… Every day on my way to school, I read the hero news in real time. When they were talking about how All Might wasn't at USJ, the three fingers Thirteen put up secretly were probably… because All Might was at his limit. It must've been because he'd used too much of his power! I'm the only one who knows…' Midoriya feared. 

 

"This suspense is killing me!" Ashido whispered.

"But why does it keep showing that Deku knows All Might's secret?" Uraraka asked.

"Probably putting on the pressure that Midoriya's the only one who knows the danger All Might is in." Todoroki answered.

"Yeah, you're right. I knew about his time limit, and that in order to defeat the villains, he had to go over it." Midoriya confirmed.

"Let's just watch, and see what happens." Jiro suggested.

But as their attention went back to the TV, the class gasped. Kurogiri had a warp set where Nomu could get a hold onto All Might.

"That's where All Might's wound is!" Mineta cried out.

"This is brutal…" Yaoyorozu whispered.

 

"Were you trying to keep him from moving by sticking him deep in the concrete?" Shigaraki asked, adding, "You won't be able to stop him like that. Because Nomu is as strong as you are." 

All Might cringed from the pain while Shigaraki laughed. 

"This is good, Kurogiri. It's an unexpected opportunity." Shigaraki sighed while Kurogiri narrowed his eyes, the portals slowly closing in. 

Nomu dug his fingers deeper into All Might's side, making his shirt blood stained. 

'Ouch! That's my weak spot! Stop it! What power!' All Might thought, letting go of Nomu to try and get his fingers off him. Glancing at Shigaraki, All Might declared, "This is your first offense? You'd better prepare yourselves…" 

Shigaraki itched at his neck again. 

"Kurogiri." 

"I do not want blood and guts overflowing within me, but I would be happy to take in someone as great as you. You are too fast to see with the human eye. Restraining you was Nomu's job. And then, when your body is halfway in, to close the gate." Kurogiri explained, imagining the imagery of it. 

 

"ALL MIGHT!" Mineta screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Those villains are brutal…" Kaminari whispered.

"They are villains and they wanted All Might dead. That was their plan, but nevertheless did they succeed." Tokoyami pointed out.

 

"-carrying Aizawa Sensei." Midoriya instructed Asui to trade places with him. 

 

"Don't tell me…" Aizawa rubbed his forehead.

"Yeah, he did…" Kirishima answered.

"You problem child." Aizawa sighed.

 

All Might continued trying to free Nomu's grasp on him. 

'No… No, All Might!' Midoirya pleaded, walking towards the scene before running. 

"Midoriya!" Mineta yelled after him. 

'There are still tons of things I want you to teach me!' Midoriya thought with tears in his eyes, begging, "All Might!" 

All Might glanced over, seeing Midoriya running in his direction. 

'Young Midoriya? What are you...' All Might gaped. 

Midoriya jumped, reaching his hand out for All Might before Kurogiri got in between the two. 

"How foolish." Kurogiri sighed, opening a portal for Midoriya to fall into until Bakugo sent an explosion that knocked Kurogiri to the ground. 

"Move! You're in the way, Deku!" Bakugo yelled at him. 

Midoriya gasped as Bakugo held Kurogiri down by his metal brace. Ice spread across the ground, freezing Nomu's right side. 

'He's frozen? Young Todoroki?!' All Might thought, seeing Todoroki a few feet away. 

"All I heard was that you all are here to kill All Might." Todoroki narrowed his eyes. 

'He controlled it so that the ice stopped just before it reached me.' All Might grabbed Nomu's hand, and propelled himself out of his grip, thanks to Todoroki. 

 

"Looks like we made it just in time, huh, Bakugo?" Kirishima said, elbowing him lightly. Bakugo smirked in response.

"If Bakugo didn't blast that warp guy, who knows where Midoriya would've ended up!" Kaminari exclaimed.

"And, if Todoroki didn't freeze that Nomu, the villains might have succeeded in their plan." Yaoyorozu added.

"Yeah, you get him Kirishima!" Sero shouted.

 

"Damn it! I didn't get to show off!" Kirishima jumped back from when he tried to jump Shigaraki, standing next to Bakugo, who held down Kurogiri. 

"Stop acting so stuck-up, foggy nobody!" Bakugo smirked. 

"The Symbol of Peace cannot be killed by the likes of you." Todoroki declared. 

"Kacchan! Everyone!" Midoriya murmured, looking at them. He wiped the tears that were forming, looking determined. 

 

"Man, look at our small elite team right there!" Kirishima gleamed.

"Yeah, me and Kirishima look badass…" Bakugo agreed.

Midoriya sighed while some of the class glared at Bakugo, Kirishima staring.

"Y-You mean me, too?" Kirishima asked him.

"You heard what I said, right?" Bakugo said, before turning back to the TV.

Kirishima beamed as he tried to hold back his tears, turning back to the TV.

'Cheeky…' Bakugo thought.

 

"Todoroki... Bakugo..." Mineta whispered. 

"And Kirishima." Asui added. 

Eraser Head started fidgeting, getting Asui and Mineta's attention back on him. 

"Leave this to them. Let's hurry!" Asui glanced at Mineta. 

"Right." Mineta agreed as they started walking to the entrance again. 

"Everyone…" Uraraka watched the scene before gasping. She got Sato, Sero and Shoji's attention saying, "Wait, isn't that Tsu?" 

Calling down to them, Uraraka shouted, "Hey, hey!" 

"Ochaco?" Asui looked up. 

"Hey, help us out! He's heavy!" Mineta cried out. 

 

"You're just weak." Bakugo whispered under his breath.

 

"Aizawa Sensei?!" Uraraka gasped. 

"Let's go!" Sato exclaimed. 

Uraraka, Sato, Sero and Shoji went to them while Ashido stayed with Thirteen. 

"L-Leave this to All Might…" Thirteen stuttered, getting Ashido's attention, Thirteen instructing, "When the other teachers get here, get to a safe place…" 

"O-Okay!" Ashido nodded. 

Shigaraki turned to where Bakugo was holding Kurogiri. 

"Kurogiri, our exit and entrance, has been overcome. We're in a pinch." Shigaraki stated. 

"Tch. You careless bastard. You're just what I thought you'd be. Only certain parts of you can turn into a misty warp gate. The fog gate covered your actual body, right? Back then…" Bakugo explained to Kurogiri while smirking. 

'Oh dear, that was close.' 

"If you were completely made of mist and physical attacks couldn't touch you, then you wouldn't have said 'that was close.'" Bakugo finished. 

 

"That's a good observation coming from you." Todoroki noted.

"What do you mean 'from you', Half n' Half?!" Bakugo yelled.

"Kacchan, Todoroki was just saying you made a good observation." Midoriya tried calming him down.

"For once." Todoroki added.

"I'll kill you!" Bakugo shouted.

 

"-moving suspiciously, then I'll blow you up." Bakugo grinned at Kurogiri. 

"His behavior isn't very hero-like…" Kirishima smirked. 

Shigaraki stared at the scene in front of him through the hand. 

"In addition to capturing them, they're almost all uninjured. Kids these days are amazing. They make the League of Villains look bad." Shigaraki muttered. Shigaraki looked at Nomu on the ground, calling, "Nomu." 

It sank into the portal until it came out from the other, the ice on its arm and leg breaking off, making Midoriya step back. 

"Even though his body's broken, he's still moving?" Midoriya gaped, Todoroki with the same shocked face. 

"Get back, everyone!" All Might ordered them. 

The ice on Nomu broke off as his arm started regenerating. 

"What? His quirk wasn't shock absorption?" All Might questioned, holding his side. 

"I didn't say that was all he had." Shigaraki corrected him, explaining, "This is super-regeneration. Nomu has been modified to take you at 100%. He's a super-efficient human sandbag." 

Midoriya and Todoroki stood their ground when Shigaraki finished. 

"First, we need to get our gate back." Shigaraki sighed, making the four gasp as Shigaraki ordered, "Go, Nomu." 

Nomu dashed past All Might, heading for Bakugo and Kirishima. 

'He's fast!' All Might widened his eyes. 

Bakugo stared at Nomu as it came near him before Nomu punched him, sending wind blowing away Midoriya, Todoroki and Kirishima. 

"Ow…" Midoriya gritted his teeth before gasping. The dust where Bakugo held Kurogiri down cleared, Bakugo gone with Nomu over Kurogiri, Midoriya shouting, "K-Kacchan!" 

"Huh?" 

Midoriya glanced back, seeing Bakugo beside him with Todoroki on the other side and Kirishima behind him. 

"Kacchan?! You dodged? That's amazing!" Midoriya gaped. 

"No, shut up, scum!" Bakugo replied. 

 

"Midoriya just called you amazing, Bakugo. Show a little appreciation." Kaminari teased Bakugo.

 

Todoroki looked toward where another cloud of dust was. 

"Then that was…" Todoroki uttered. 

The smoke cleared as the students saw All Might, coughing. 

"All Might!" Midoriya yelled. 

"He protected the child, huh?" Shigaraki whispered. 

"Do you not know how to hold back?" All Might asked, blood coming from his mouth. 

"It was to rescue my companions. I had no choice." Shigaraki defended himself. Pointing to the four, Shigaraki explained, "I mean, earlier, that plain-looking one… he was about to me with everything he had, you know." 

 

"Is that the only feature that Midoriya's known for? His plain skin?" Sato asked.

"He's got those red shoes! O-Or what about those freckles! And don't forget his-" Sero added.

"Why does everyone care about what they call Deku?! It doesn't matter!" Bakugo yelled over them.

 

"-right, hero? You know what, All Might? I'm angry. I'm angry at this world that categorizes the same violent acts as heroic or villainous, deciding what's good and what's bad. 'Symbol of Peace'? Ha. You're just a device to repress violence. Violence only breeds violence. The world will know this once we kill you!" Shigaraki declared. 

 

"I should've blasted his head off once he began talking." Bakugo punched his hand, smoke coming from it.

"That doesn't sound very heroic, Bakugo." Kirishima teased him.

"Would've got the job done." Bakugo argued.

'Honestly, ever though this Shigaraki villain acted childish, he does have a good point…' Aizawa thought to himself.

 

"-just want to enjoy this yourself, don't you, you liar?" All Might argued. 

Shigaraki's eyes narrowed. "He's already figured me out?" 

"It's three against five." Todoroki spoke up. 

"Kacchan's already exposed the fog's weakness!" Midoriya nodded. 

"These guys are crazy, but if we backup All Might…" Kirishima agreed, hardening his arms as he finished, "...we can push them back!" 

"No! Run away." All Might objected. 

"You would've been in trouble if I hadn't done anything earlier, right?" Todoroki argued. 

"That was a different story, Young Todoroki. Thanks." All Might clenched his fist, adding, "But it's fine! Just watch as a pro gives it everything he's got." 

"All Might, you're bleeding. Besides, time's-" Midoriya pointed out, before stopping himself again. 

 

"Seriously, how did you keep it a secret for so long if you were this bad at keeping it hidden?!" Kaminari threw his arms out.

"I really don't know! I thought Asui- I-I mean Tsu, already knew from the way she told me my quirk was like All Might's!" Midoriya agreed.

 

"Get him. I'll deal with the children." Shigaraki ordered Kurogiri and Nomu. 

'It's true that I barely have a minute left. My power has been declining faster than I expected.' All Might thought to himself. 

"Now, let's clear this and go home." Shigaraki sighed before dashing off. 

'But I must do this.' All Might clenched his fists. 

Shigaraki ran for the four. 

"Hey, we've gotta do this after all!" Kirishima said. 

'Why? Because I am…' 

Light appeared as it connected to others, lighting up All Might's narrowed eyes. 

'...the Symbol of Peace!' 

 

"Shit is going down!" Ashido shouted.

"Shit did go down!" Kirishima raised his fist.

"Get 'em All Might!" Mineta yelled.

 

Shigaraki stopped running as All Might and Nomu ran at full speed toward each other. They punched each other's fist, which sent gusts of wind, blowing away everyone but them. 

"Damn. Hey, you talked about this shock absorption yourself earlier, didn't you?" Shigaraki covered his face as he landed on the ground. 

"Yes, I did." All Might replied quickly. 

All Might and Nomu sent continuous punches at each other while Midoriya grounded himself from the wind. 

"A head-on fistfight?" Midoriya muttered to Bakugo, who blew next to him. 

"W-Wow!" Kirishima uttered. 

"I-I can't get near them!" Kurogiri yelled next to Shigaraki. 

"If your quirk isn't shock nullification but shock absorption," All Might said between punches, "then there's a limit to it, right?" 

Nomu punched All Might's weak spot, making him wince, but not back down. 

"Made to fight me? If you can withstand me at 100%, then I'll force you to surrender from beyond that!" All Might declared as he and Nomu continued their fight. 

'He's bleeding while giving it his all!' Midoriya stared, observing, 'He's not swinging randomly. Every single hit is more than 100% of his power!' 

All Might sent Nomu back, Nomu rolling on the ground. 

"A hero…" All Might started, running to Nomu, who jumped back after him until they both jumped into the air. 

All Might punched Nomu in the head before Nomu pinned All Might to the ground until All Might kicked him back up. 

"...can always break out of a tough spot!" 

All Might kicked Nomu's face into the ground, sliding its face through the floor. When he had Nomu in the air, All Might grabbed him by the arm, and slung him into the ground. Bakugo, Todoroki, Kirihsima and Midoriya watched the fight in shock and awe. All Might crashed to the ground beside Nomu. 

"Hey villain, have you ever heard these words?" All Might grinned. 

Light appeared as different colored lines connected. Once it got to the final light, All Might grabbed it with his fist. 

"Go beyond! Plus Ultra!" All Might yelled as he used a final punch to Nomu's gut, sending it flying as it crashed into the glass, making the whole arena shake. 

"Wh-What's this vibration?" Tokoyami looked around. 

Ojiro hit his tail against a villain before landing on the ground. 

"An explosion?" Ojiro questioned about the shaking. 

Nomu flew out of the arena, flying into space. 

 

"YEAH! ALL MIGHT!"

"So that's what the what was?!" Ojiro stared in awe.

"That was amazing!" Kaminari beamed.

"Now that, is All Might right there!" Sato exclaimed.

"You guys got to see that?! Lucky!" Sero said.

"You did realize All Might did all of that while he was on the last of his time limit, correct?" Yaoyorozu told them.

"That just means All Might's more heroic than we thought!" Uraraka jumped.

"And those villains thought they could kill him." Mineta laughed.

 

"-power is…" Shoji muttered, carrying Eraser Head. 

Mineta's eyes sparkled as he announced, "It's All Might! There's no one else who can do something so amazing! " 

"Ribbit, ribbit." Asui agreed. 

"Is this a comic book or something? It's like he nullified the shock absorption. His brute strength is crazy." Kirishima observed. 

"What insane power… Does that mean he rushed at him so fast he couldn't regenerate?" Bakugo asked. 

'So this is the top…' Todoroki thought, determined. 

'Is this… the world of pros?' Bakugo thought, shocked. 

'All Might…' Midoriya thought, smoke covering the hero. 

"I really have gotten weaker… In my prime, five hits would've been enough. But it took more than 300 hits." All Might smiled. 

Midoriya sighed as steam began coming off of All Might. 

'And now… I'm out of time…' All Might noted. All Might turned to the villains, telling them, "Now, villains, I'm sure we'd all like to end this as soon as possible." 

"He used a cheat?!" Shigaraki glared at All Might. 

 

"Sorry, All Might doesn't cheat. Your Nomu creature just wasn't strong enough for him." Kaminari stated.

"Wait, that's how it ends?!" Ashido exclaimed as she noticed the ending song.

"They're really gonna end it that way?!" Mineta yelled.

"That's just cruel!" Hagakure huffed.

"We can always watch more." Yaoyorozu told them, getting their attention as she explained, "Aizawa Sensei said we had enough time, so we may watch another.

"True." Kaminari agreed, shouting, "Let's do it!"

"Remember that Nomu Endeavor fought? The one that could talk…" Tokoyami told Jiro.

"Do you think it'll show that in this show about us?" Jiro asked him.

"Even if it does, it'll be a long while." All Might told the two.

Chapter 16: In Each of Our Hearts

Recap of the previous episode. 

 

"You think that Nomu's up there?" Uraraka asked.

"If so, it's most likely probably dead." Kaminari answered.

"Actually, they captured that Nomu creature and tried getting information out of it, but it wouldn't talk." All Might explained.

"Oh, okay, thanks, All Might." Kaminari gave a thumbs up.

"You think your ball from the quirk assessment is still up there, Ochaco?" Asui asked her.

"Probably…" Uraraka smiled.

 

"Weaker? No way. We've been completely overwhelmed. I can't believe he did that to my Nomu… Did he use a cheat?!" Shigaraki shook. 

Opening plays. 

 

"All Might doesn't cheat, your Nomu was just shit." Bakugo answered.

"Yeah, told 'em Bakugo!" Kirishima backed him up.

"So, those Nomu's are able to hold more than one quirk?" Yaoyorozu observed.

"Yeah, they're designed to hold a few quirks." Midoriya noted.

"You nerds shut up! Episode's starting." Bakugo yelled.

"Oh! It does show what happens to us!" Kaminari whispered quietly.

 

"No quirks allowed. If you use your quirks, I'll kill this guy." a villain ordered Jiro and Yaoyorozu as he held up Kaminari (still brain dead). 

"Kaminari!" Yaoyorozu whispered. 

"He got us. We let our guard down completely. An ambush after they made us think we got all of them. I can't believe we didn't predict this." Jiro whispered back. 

"I don't wanna kill someone who's an electric-type, like me. But I guess I have to, huh?" the villain glared, holding his hand out to show this quirk which made Kaminari shake. Jiro and Yaoyorozu held their hands up. 

 

"You were just going to surrender like that?!" Bakugo exclaimed.

"Well, we couldn't do anything about it. Kaminari's brain was fried. I tried sneaking one of my earphone jack into my boot, but he caught on!" Jiro explained.

"So you were just going to let him do who knows what to me?!" Kaminari replied.

"It's all right, Kaminari. Just watch." Yaoyorozu assured him.

 

The girls tensed as he started walking away with Kaminari. 

"I'm going over there. Don't move a muscle." he glanced back at them. 

Jiro looked down before gasping. 

"Electric-types like you and Kaminari are born winners, right?" Jiro looked up at the villain, smirking. 

"Huh?" he asked, turning back to her. 

"What are you-" Yaoyorozu glanced at Jiro. 

"I mean, even if you aren't a hero, there are a ton of jobs you could do." Jiro continued. 

 

"So your next plan was to sweet talk the villain?!" Kaminari exclaimed.

"That was not her plan. Please, Kaminari, quiet down so we can see what Jiro does?" Yaoyorozu told Kaminari, who just sighed.

"You're in charge of shutting him up now." Jiro elbowed Yaoyorozu lightly.

 

Yaoyorozu gasped, watching as Jiro's right earphone roll down her back, making its way to her boot. 

"I'm just wondering, why is someone like you a villain?" Jiro asked. 

'I see. Jiro can attack without moving as long as she gets her plug in.' Yaoyorozu thought. 

"It's fine if you don't want to." Jiro sighed, her earphone almost plugged into her boot. 

"Give it up." the villain had his electric hand in front of Kaminari, making him shake again. 

 

'I knew Kaminari's in a life or death situation, but…' the class covered their mouth, a few of them couldn't help but try to not smile.

 

"Did you think I wouldn't notice?" the villain questioned, Jiro gritting her teeth as her earphone came back to rest on her shoulder. 

"A kid's naive thinking only works on dumb adults. Novice heroes shouldn't make light of hostages. If you two don't put up a fight, I'll let this idiot go." the villain explained. 

The villains on the ground started moving slightly. 

"Someone else's life, or your own. Now. Don't move." the villain narrowed his eyes. 

Title screen 'Episode 13: In Each of Our Hearts' 

All Might stood, breathing heavily while glaring at Shigaraki and Kurogiri. 

 

"Is that all it's going to show of you three?! What the hell happened with the villain?" Sero exclaimed.

"Dunce Face is here, right? He survived." Bakugo answered.

 

"Hey, what's going on? He's not any weaker at all. Did that guy lie to me?!" Shigaraki scratched his neck. 

 

"Wait, what does Shigaraki mean by 'that guy'?" Ojiro questioned.

"It must be someone we haven't seen yet." Shoji told Ojiro.

"Maybe we'll figure out who it is if we continue." Tokoyami added.

 

"-you'd 'clear' this or something, right? Come and get me if you can." All Might narrowed his eyes, Shigaraki stumbling back by All Might's gaze. 

"All Might…" Bakugo whispered. 

"As expected, it looks like there is no need for us to fight." Todoroki spoke. 

"Midoriya! We should get out of here now! It'll be worse if we end up getting held hostage instead!" Kirishima yelled to him. 

 

"Don't tell me he…" Aizawa sighed.

"Yeah, he did." Kirishima answered, knowing his question, Midoriya wincing.

 

'-almost lost under the cloud of dust, but I can see the steam-like substance that comes out when he transforms.' Midoriya stared in horror. 

'I can't move anymore. That Nomu thing was too strong. Frankly, if I move even one step, I won't be able to keep up this bluff. I'll go back to my true form. Just a little more...' All Might thought. Taking a slight step, All Might shouted, "Well? What's wrong?" 

 

"All Might, you moved one step. Shouldn't you have transformed back then?" Asui turned to All Might.

"It was a small step, Young Asui." All Might smiled.

"Still a step." Hagakure agreed with Asui.

"Who cares?! It's All Might we're talking about!" Mineta exclaimed.

 

'If I can stall for just a little longer…' All Might thought. 

Midoriya stared at All Might, before he turned to see Shigaraki continue his itching. 

"If only I had Nomu. That guy would've been able to go up against him without thinking about anything!" Shigaraki groaned. 

"Tomura Shigaraki! Please calm yourself." Kurogiri called, trying to calm him down. Kurogiri looked at All Might, telling Shigaraki, "Looking carefully, I see that he was definitely weakened from the damage of Nomu's attacks." 

Shigaraki stopped his scratching, sighing while Kurogiri turned to look at Kirishima, Todoroki, Midoriya and Bakugo. 

"Besides, the children appear to be frozen in fear. We still have underlings who can be used." Kurogiri added, as the villains near them started moving, picking themselves up, continuing, "There are likely only a few minutes left before reinforcements come. If you and I work together, we still have a chance of killing him." 

Shigaraki slowly took his hands off his neck, considering Kurogiri's words. 

"Yeah… yeah, yeah… That's right… That's right… We have no choice but to do it. I mean, we have the last boss right in front of our eyes." Shigaraki realized. 

Villains behind the four students stood up, getting their attention. 

"All Might will do something about the main bad guys." Kirishima told them, his arms hardened, announcing, "Let's go help the others!" 

Todoroki turned to where Midoriya stood behind them. 

"Midoriya?" Todoroki called. 

'I'm the only one who knows…' Midoriya thought, clenching his fist, 'The mist guy is probably more dangerous. All Might had most likely gone past his limit. If the mist guy toys with him, I'm sure…' 

Shigaraki started running at All Might. 

'You're coming, huh?' All Might gritted his teeth. 

"This is revenge for Nomu!" Shigaraki yelled. 

'Jeez, holy shit!' All Might clenched his fist. 

Kurogiri made a portal in his mist as he ran alongside Shigaraki. 

'Hurry! Everyone, hurry!' All Might slid his foot. 

While Kurogiri and Shigaraki ran for All Might, Midoriya had jumped to save him. 

 

'I shouldn't even be surprised at this point.' the class sighed, though scared.

"Deku! No!" Uraraka exclaimed, covering her eyes.

Midoriya looked over at her, feeling a little guilty.

"I-It turns out okay, Uraraka. I'm fine!" Midoriya reassured her, making Uraraka uncover one eye.

 

'-only who knows the predicament he's in!' Midoriya gritted his teeth. 

"Midoriya!" Kirishima called out. 

Midoriya winced, his legs hanging, broken. 

'They're broken… even though I controlled it earlier… But I made it! The hidden part of his body! As long as I aim for that, I can blow him away!' Midoriya planned, clenching his fist, shouting, "Get away from All Might!" 

Shigaraki put his hand through a portal Kurogiri made, reaching out for Midoriya. 

'This hand is…' Midoriya gaped, remembering Eraser Head's elbow, realizing, '...the one from back then?!' 

"I won't fall for that again!" Kurogiri declared. 

Shigaraki's hand shadowed over Midoriya's face as it inched closer, Shigaraki laughing hysterically while All Might watched in horror. 

A gunshot fired, the bullet piercing Shigaraki's outstretched hand. 

 

The class sighed with relief, some realizing they'd been holding their breath.

"Midoriya, please stop putting yourself in danger. You could've been killed!" Aoyama exclaimed at Midoriya.

"We need to keep a record of how many times Midoriya's been at death's door." Kaminari noted.

"I already have one." Todoroki pulled out a tiny notepad, marking, "That would make… six, from when we started watching this."

"'Six'?!" Midoriya gaped as Todoroki put a tally mark.

"First; that sludge villain, second was when you hang onto All Might's leg, third; the entrance exam, fourth would be Bakugo sending that blast from the training exercise, fifth is that shark villain, and this is the sixth." Todoroki explained.

"Well, you'll probably be adding more to that list." Sero noted.

"This is not a joke! This is a very serious matter! Midoriya could've been killed, and you're all not taking it seriously!" Iida yelled, holding Midoriya.

"Shut up Glasses! I'm trying to watch!" Bakugo yelled back.

"I'll be fine Iida, please, can you put me down?" Midoriya asked awkwardly.

"Oh, yes, sorry!" Iida apologized, setting him down before returning to his seat.

 

"-representative, have now returned!" Iida announced, teachers standing at the entrance to USJ beside him, observing the scene while villains in the plaza started firing or running towards the teachers. 

"Tch." Present Mic spat, making his way to the front. He inhaled before yelling out, making the villains cover their ears while another teacher sent clones of themselves down to the villains, making them fight. 

"Split up and protect the students!" Nezu ordered the others. 

"Aw man, they're here." Shigaraki held his hand while backing to Kurogiri, saying "It's game over now. Shall we go home and try again later, Kurogir-?" 

His question was cut short as bullets hit him left and right before Kurogiri shielded him. 

 

"He should've aimed for the head! That would've killed him!" Bakugo yelled out.

"But killing isn't what a hero does." Kirishima told him.

"Do I look like I give a damn?! Killing him would've probably prevented all those crazy things that happened to us!" Bakugo argued.

"He has a point…" Tokoyami agreed.

 

Kurogiri used his warp to get Shigaraki out safely without hurting him until Thirteen used their Black Hole to try and stop them. 

"This is… Thirteen!" Kurogiri uttered. 

"I may have failed this time, but I will kill you next time, Symbol of Peace, All Might!" Shigaraki vowed, while All Might spat out blood. 

Once Shigaraki went into the warp, Kurogiri disappeared, Thirteen stopping their quirk. 

Montages of the students being rescued while Midoriya narrated, "What the pros deal with. What they fight against. The world of evil. That was an experience that we were not ready for yet." 

 

"Of course we were ready, those guys were hardly even villains!" Bakugo objected.

"Maybe the ones we fought, but the three others, we wouldn't be ready." Shoji explained.

 

Midoriya winced at his broken bones. 

"I wasn't able to do anything…" Midoriya gritted his teeth. 

"That's not true." 

Midoriya looked up, seeing All Might in a mixture between his true and muscle form. 

"If it weren't for those few seconds you bought me, I would've been killed." All Might told him. 

 

"So, you're basically encouraging him to risk his life." Aizawa narrowed his eyes at All Might.

"No! I'm just saying he saved me!" All Might defended his past self.

"Uh-huh." Aizawa looked back to the TV.

 

"I'm… so glad you're okay…!" Midoriya choked out as tears rolled down his cheeks. 

"My goodness…" a teacher spoke. 

"I can't believe we let them escape after they made such a big show of trespassing." a female teacher agreed. 

"They caught us completely unguarded, huh? More importantly, we must make sure the students are safe." Nezu added as another teacher placed him onto the ground, the other teachers nodding. 

"If this many pro heroes have gathered here, then it looks like they didn't attack the whole school." Todoroki observed. 

"Midoriya!" Kirishima yelled, running to him. 

"Oh, Kirishima…" Midoriya turned to his direction. 

"Are you all right?" Kirishima asked. 

'Young Kirishima, I applaud your concern for your friend! But wait, he'll find out!' All Might panicked. 

 

"I could've found out this whole time?!" Kirishima exclaimed.

"It's a good thing Cementoss Sensei stopped you, huh?" Midoriya said.

"But the compassion Young Kirishima showed is good to have for a hero." All Might commented.

 

"-sure that all the students are safe, so please gather in front of the gate. We will deal with the injured here." a gray-skinned teacher explained to Kirishima, the ground rose up to separate Midoriya and All Might from Kirishima. 

"That makes sense. Roger that!" Kirishima replied before running back. Making it to Bakugo and Todoroki, Kirishima told them, "Hey, he said to gather in front of the gate!" 

Hearing Kirishima leave, Midoriya and All Might sighed, All Might falling to the ground. 

"Thanks. You saved me, Cementoss." All Might thanked the teacher. 

"I am a fan of yours, too." Cementoss smiled. 

'Cementoss. Quirk: Cement.' 

"Let's get you to the nurse's office while keeping you hidden. But man, you act recklessly every time, huh?" Cementoss instructed All Might. 

"If I didn't act reckless, I would've been killed. That was how strong the enemy was." All Might wiped the blood on his cheek. 

Overlooking a city view, focusing on the rundown bar. 

 

"Why do they make these transitions?!" Kaminari threw his arms in the air.

"It's so annoying!" Ashido agreed.

"We might get information, so let us quiet down." Yaoyorozu explained to them.

"Good." Aizawa nodded.

 

A warp appeared in the bar, uncovering Shigaraki. 

"Ouch…" Shigaraki mumbled, complaining, "I was shot in both arms and both legs. We lost completely. Even Nomu was defeated! All the underlings were defeated in an instant. Those kids were strong..." 

Blood puddles started appearing around where he was shot. 

"The Symbol of Peace was healthy…" Shigaraki looked up, yelling, "You were wrong, Master!" Shigaraki glared up at a small TV. 

"No, I wasn't." 

 

Everyone tensed as the new voice spoke while All Might's narrowed his eyes.

 

"We were just not prepared enough." 

Another spoke up. "Yes, we underestimated them. It's good that we did it under that cheap 'League of Villains' name. By the way, what about Master and my joint creation, Nomu?" 

"He was not retrieved?" 

"He was blown away." Kurogiri answered nervously. 

"What?!" 

"More precisely, without coordinates to his precise location, I could not find him, even with my warp. I did not have time for that." Kurogiri explained. 

"After all we did to make him as powerful as All Might!" the second voice groaned. 

"Well, I suppose it cannot be helped. That's unfortunate." the first sighed. 

"Power…" Shigaraki muttered, realizing, "That's right. There was one child who was as fast as All Might." 

 

The class shot glances at Midoriya, knowing Shigaraki was referring to him.

'What is All for One after?'

Midoriya narrowed his eyes.

 

"Oh?" the first voice questioned. 

"If he hadn't gotten in my way, we might have been able to kill All Might." Shigaraki continued, scratching the floor, groaning, "That brat… that brat!" 

"Of course you have regrets. But this was not a futile exercise. Gather the elite. Take all the time you need. We cannot move freely, which is why we need a symbol, like you. Tomura Shigaraki. Next time, show the world that you are to be feared." 

 

"Do you think… Deku was a target?" Uraraka asked, her voice breaking the tight grip on the class.

"Who do you think the other person was?" Shoji asked.

"I don't think we'll find out anytime soon…" Ojiro answered.

 

"-18, 19." a detective counted the class before looking at his papers, explaining "Other than the boy with both legs seriously injured, everyone else seems unharmed." 

"Ojiro." Hagakure put her hand on his shoulder, asking "I heard you were fired up this time. You were strong by yourself, huh?" 

"I thought everyone was by themselves. I survived by using hit-and-run tactics. Where were you, Hagakure?" Ojiro replied. 

"In the landslide area! Todoroki was super strong. I was surprised!" Hagakure told him, pointing his direction. 

"Anyway, I'm glad you weren't hurt." Ojiro smiled. 

'I almost froze her… That was close.' Todoroki thought, overhearing. 

"Where… do you think I was?" Aoyama asked Kirishima, Tokoyami, Kaminari and their classmate. 

"I see, so the people you fought were also just hooligans?" Tokoyami noted. 

"They underestimated us 'cause we were kids." Kirishima punched his palm. 

"Where…" Aoyama tried again with Sato, Shoji and Sero. 

"So it was All Might who put the hole in the dome after all?" Sero told the two. 

"That's some crazy power." Sato stated. 

"Yeah, as expected of All Might." Shoji nodded. 

"Where do you think I was?" Aoyama put his hand on Asui's shoulder. 

"Where?" Asui asked. 

"It's a secret!" Aoyama sparkled. 

 

"Why ask if you were just going to say it was a secret?" Sato questioned.

"I wanted to be dazzling." Aoyama posed.

"Now that we have seen where everyone was transported, it never did show where Aoyama was." Tokoyami realized.

"So, where was he, then?" Jiro joined in.

Everyone turned to Aoyama, looking for an answer. He looked uncomfortable as he started sweating before he just pointed at the TV.

"Oh, look!" Aoyama announced.

 

Aizawa laid in a hospital bed, his bloody scarf in a tray next to the bed. 

"Comminuted fractures in both arms and a facial fracture. Fortunately, there does not seem to be any serious brain damage. However, his orbital floor has broken into small pieces, and his eyes may suffer from its aftereffects." 

The detective held up a phone that played the answer to Asui's question about Aizawa. 

"That's what he said." the detective said when the recording finished. 

"Ribbit…" Asui croaked. 

"No…" Mineta's eyes filled with tears. 

"What about Thirteen?" Ashido asked. 

"Thirteen has been treated. The laceration from the back to upper arm was bad, but Thirteen will survive." the detective explained, Ashido, Jiro and Yaoyorozu sighed. 

"All Might will also survive. Recovery Girl's healing is enough to treat him, so he's in the nurse's office." the detective added. 

"Deku…!" Uraraka shouted. 

"What about Midoriya?!" Iida backed her up. 

"Midori…?" he muttered, before saying, "Oh, treatment in the nurse's office is enough for him, too." 

"Oh, good…" Uraraka sighed. 

"Now, go back to your classroom." the detective told the class. 

"Okay." 

"Sansa, I also have some business in the nurse's office. I'll leave the rest to you." the detective told a cat head officer. 

"Yes, sir!" Sansa saluted. 

'It's a cat.' Ashido thought. 

'Not a dog, huh?' Uraraka stared. 

 

"Does that look like a dog to you, Uraraka?" Kaminari chuckled.

"No…" Uraraka answered awkwardly.

"Okay, just making sure." Kaminari held a thumbs up.

 

'Damn.' Bakugo spat as he stared at USJ. 

"Bakugo! We said to go back to the classroom!" Kirishima yelled out to him. 

"I know, bastard!" Bakugo yelled back, walking towards him. 

Inside USJ, Nezu and two other teachers; one with a cowboy hat on and the female from before, looked down into the plaza. 

"We need to make some drastic improvements to school security, don't we?" Nezu noted. 

"Yes." the female agreed. 

"A warp quirk is already very rare, but for a villain to have one, of all things…" the other muttered in a monotone voice. 

"Detective Tsukauchi!" someone outside ran to the detective, saying, "We received word that someone thought to be a villain was captured in a grove of trees on school grounds." 

"How is it?" Tsukauchi asked, Nomu in restraints with many policemen surrounding it. 

 

"The Nomu!" the class gasped.

"Hell yeah it's a villain! Take that thing into custody!" Kaminari shouted.

 

"He does not respond even when called out to, so he is thought to be mute." the police answered Tsukauchi, who thought thoughtfully about it before noticing Nezu and the female teacher walking out of USJ. 

"Principal, we would like to investigate every corner of the school, just in case." Tsukauchi told Nezu. 

"Of course! Some people might complain, but you police have more authority. Investigating is what you're good at. I'm counting on you!" Nezu agreed. 

Tsukauchi walked off, ordering officers, "Teams, proceed with the investigation of the school!" 

By the time Class 1-A made it back to U.A., the sun was setting. 

Recovery Girl sighed, All Might and Midoriya lying in bed. 

"Because of the situation this time, I can't really scold you…" Recovery Girl told them. 

 

"Maybe, Midoriya…?" Sero suggested.

"But then All Might would've been killed!" Mineta cried.

"But then Deku would've been killed!" Uraraka objected.

"But, thanks to Snipe Sensei, both survived!" Kaminari cheered.

"Does anyone notice All Might's feet hanging off the bed?" Sato chuckled.

"Shut up, extras!" Bakugo yelled.

 

"-I still have at least an hour…" All Might sighed, saying before his time limit had shrunk. 

"All Might…" Midoriya worried. 

"Well, it can't be helped… These things happen." All Might sighed, sitting up. 

Recovery Girl turned to the sound of the door opening. 

"Excuse me. All Might, it's been a while." Tsukauchi removed his hat. 

"Tsukauchi! You're here, too?" All Might spat out blood. 

"All Might! Is it all right to show that form…?" Midoriya sat up. 

"Yeah, it's fine. Why? Because he's Naomasa Tsukauchi, my best friend in the force." All Might explained to Midoriya. 

 

"So, is he the friend that knows about One for All too?" Kaminari asked All Might.

"He is one of them, yes." All Might replied.

"Oh, okay." Kaminari replied, thinking, 'There's someone else…?'

 

"-give me details about the vill-" Tsukauchi started. 

"Wait! Please, wait! More importantly, are all the students okay? What about Aizawa- Eraser Head- and Thirteen?" All Might asked Tsukauchi, Midoriya leaning over to hear. 

"Other than that boy, only a few students had light injuries, and the two teachers are in stable condition now." Tsukauchi answered. 

"I see." All Might smiled while Midoriya sighed. 

 

"Don't want us following in your footsteps, huh?" Sero poked Midoriya.

 

"-then the students would not have survived." Tsukauchi added about All Might, Eraser head and Thirteen risking their lives. 

"You're wrong about one thing, Tsukauchi." All Might argued, saying, "The students also fought and risked their lives." 

"All Might…" Midoriya stared. 

"Have there even been any first-years who experienced a real fight so soon, survived, and learned of fear and the world of adults? The villains did something dumb. This class is strong. They will become strong heroes. I am certain of that." All Might declared. 

 

"All Might! All Might! All Might!" some of the class started cheering, before the others joined in, making All Might smile.

"Eraser Head! Eraser Head! Eraser Head!" Yaoyorozu cheered, then others started joining.

"All right, all right, that's enough." Aizawa settled them down, but secretly appreciated the cheer.

 

The students of Class 1-A walked through the halls of U.A, their faces lit with determination. Midoriya looked at All Might, who gave him a thumbs up while Midoriya nodded in response, the sun setting on U.A. 

Ending plays. 

 

"It's a different ending." Yaoyorozu observed.

"It looks so cool! And little Midoriya is so cute!" Ashido exclaimed, making Midoriya embarrassed.

"It shows everything from the other episodes." Sero noticed.

"It makes everyone look so badass, too!" Kirishima added.

"But why the sudden change?" Jiro questioned.

"Could it be…?" Tokoyami widened his eyes a little.

"Something's happening." Asui announced.

 

'Nurse's office' 

"Well then, thank you very much!" Midoriya told Recovery Girl outside her office. 

"Sure. Be careful on your way home." Recovery Girl called. 

"Yes, ma'am." 

It was nighttime, the moon lighting the U.A. halls as Midoriya ran through them. 

 

"No running in the halls, Midoriya!" Iida yelled, getting hushed by some of his classmates.

 

"-of Villains was only the beginning of what would become a major incident later." Midoriya narrated about the attack as he ran outside to see Uraraka and Iida. 

"Deku!" Uraraka beamed, making Midoriya smile. 

The three of them started their walk home. 

"But I had no way of knowing that at the time." Midoriya narrated, a city of lights as a man with bandana's flowing in the air stood on the top of a building, overlooking the city, licking his lips. 

'TO BE CONTINUED IN 2ND SEASON' 

 

"STAIN?!" the class yelled out, except Midoriya, Iida and Todoroki.

"And there's a second season of this?!" Kaminari cried out.

"That was just the first?!" Midoriya gaped, looking on the verge of a heart attack.

"How many seasons are there going to be?" Ashido joined in.

Everyone turned back to the TV as the screen turned black and the disc player opened, revealing the disc.

"Okay… That was creepy…" Hagakure gulped.

"Does that mean we won't see season 2 of this?" Sero asked sadly while Midoriya, Iida and Todoroki sighed before quickly acting bummed.

"You kids watched enough, so go on now." Aizawa told them, making his way to the disc, asking "Midoriya, where's the case for this?"

"Here!" Yaoyorozu handed Aizawa the case.

The students started shuffling back to the dorms. Midoriya, Iida and Todoroki being the ones behind the rest.

"If there's another season of this, do you think it'll show…?" Todoroki asked Iida and Midoriya.

"Since it seems to follow Midoriya's perspective, I suppose." Iida answered.

"But since it wasn't on that disc, they probably won't find out." Midoriya replied.

Aizawa watched as the class went to their dorms, noticing Midoriya, Iida and Todoroki behind the rest. He placed the case on the little coffee table before he and All Might left the building.

Chapter 17: Whereabouts

The next morning, Class 1-A gathered together in the common area, Midoriya rolling out a chalkboard in front of his classmates. Written on it was, 'Where did the case come from?' and underneath were two bullet points.

"All right…" Midoriya addressed his classmates in the investigation (which is basically everyone except Bakugo, because he just don't care), explaining, "...so here's some ideas on where we think the disc could've come from."

Midoriya pointed a wooden stick to the first bullet labeled: Someone's quirk.

"Todoroki thought it might have been a certain quirk, but since we have no information about this quirk, it could be bullet number two." Midoriya pointed at the second bullet, labeled: Alternate Universe.

"Why an alternate universe?" Kirishima asked.

"Going along with Todoroki's theory; what if the quirk that brought the disc here went to a different timeline of our lives, found this mysterious disc, and thought about showing it to the past us so we could learn from it. Or, or, went to a parallel universe where we're just some characters in an anime that people watch and brought the disc to our universe to see our reaction to our lives!" Midoriya announced with his hands in the air.

"I-I think you're thinking about this too much, Deku…" Uraraka said concernedly.

"Yeah, an alternate universe where we're just some characters in this damn anime?" Bakugo appeared behind them, a cup of water in his hand.

"Just a suggestion…" Midoriya sighed.

"Well, this disc had to come from somewhere." Yaoyorozu stood up, making her way to the chalkboard, suggesting, "So what about this."

Yaoyorozu wrote something on the board and turned around to reveal the third bullet she made, saying: The Black Market; along with a fourth: Mutation quirk.

"You nerds are thinking into this too much." Bakugo waved, walking past them.

"Think about this." Yaoyorozu started, ignoring Bakugo's comment, "How do you think they obtain all of those well shoted shots of us without any of us noticing?"

"Aoyama noticed it, though. His eyes looked like he knew he was being filmed!" Ashido argued.

"I am telling you, I had no knowledge of this. I stare off into space all the time." Aoyama explained.

"All right, but I'm still one to you about your hiding spot!" Ashido vowed.

"All right, okay." Midoriya exclaimed, getting their attention. Gesturing to Yaoyorozu, Midoriya told her, "Continue, Yaoyorozu."

Yaoyorozu cleared her throat. "Anyway, someone with high intelligence could have been able to get something like this disc. And, I'm also going on Todoroki's theory, but not what Midoriya thought the quirk might have be."

This got everyone intrigued, listening closely.

"Maybe the person used a quirk that could make them hide in plain sight, but also get the perfect shot as they hid." Yaoyorozu explained.

"Like that reporter that came in to interview our class and a quirk like mine!" Hagakure exclaimed.

"Yes. Someone with a quirk that can make them hide in plain sight, but also, get the perfect angle of a shot." Yaoyorozu finished.

"But that still doesn't explain a lot of things. Like, how they knew where the League of Villains lair was this whole time, and didn't tell anyone. Or, why Midoriya is the 'main character', quote-on-quote." Ojiro spoke up, using air quotes when he said main character.

"You nerds wanna stop your theories for a moment." Bakugo shouted, holding up a box, muttering, "I got something."

Bakugo opened up the box with everyone surrounding him. He pulled out a case that had an all black cover except for the words 'My Hero Academia: Season 2' written in white.

"The second season… We can watch it now!" Kaminari exclaimed.

"Is there anything else in the box? Like, a notecard?" Jiro asked.

"Just this case." Bakugo replied.

"We have to tell Aizawa Sensei! He might let us watch it if he thinks he can get more intel on the League!" Ashido, Hagakure and Uraraka jumped.

"You three can go ask him, since you suggested it." Mineta shooed at them.

Overall the excitement the students had, three hung back. Midoriya remembered what they saw from the last episode of that first season. He looked at Iida and Todoroki, knowing they had the same thought.

'They're going to find out we fought Hero Killer: Stain.'
