All of us were walking back to camp, all of us being Aries, Bakugo, Todoroki, and I, having figured out that villains were here from Mandalay's broadcasted message. We had each gotten the papers from Ragdoll and were now walking back to camp, thinking it would be safest there because of all the pro's over there. Todoroki was making a plan and Bakugo and Aries were complaining that he was bossing them around. I rolled my eyes at them and ignored the two.

I put my focus on the road in front of us and saw someone in all black, kneeling on the ground, their back to us. "Hey guys...who is that in front of us...?" I asked, pointing at the person. The three of them stopped their bickering for a moment to look at the person.

"Pretty, so pretty. No. This is work. But so alluring, so pretty." It was a male voice but it sounded so...strange. It's the only word I can use to describe their voice and their words.

"Who was in front of us?" Aries asked, quietly so as not to alert the man in front of us.

"Tokoyami and..." The man rose slightly to reveal a bloodied arm on the ground in front of him. "Shoji!" Todoroki answered, terror present on his face. 

"So enticing. But I gotta do the job." The man turned around but his entire face was covered. There wasn't a sliver of skin shown. Only his mouth and teeth.


Todoroki, Bakugo, Aries, and I were each using our quirks to push back the villain, Moonfish his name was when we got a telepathic message from Mandalay. "Two of the villains' targets have been identified! It's the two students known as Kacchan and Aries! Kacchan and Aries you need to avoid battle, and don't make any moves! Does everyone get that? Kacchan and Aries!" Mandalay informed us in our heads.

"I think I'll just do what I want!" Bakugo yelled, and Aries agreed with him, saying something of that sort as well. I rolled my eyes at their arrogance and idiocracy.  

"He's making good use of the area, and the terrain. He may look like he only has his mindset on one thing but he's actually pretty smart." I mused.

"Show me...some flesh!" Moonfish yelled, using only his weird quirk to move around.

"If we set any big fires they could spread and get everyone killed, you two got that?" Todoroki made sure the two understood.

Todoroki hasn't used his fire once, in fear of setting a tree ablaze. Todoroki's about to use his fire when Shoji is running towards us, with Midoriya on his back and destruction following them. Literally, it's as if some sort of evil deity is following them and destroying everything behind them. "Todoroki, Bakugo, Aries, one of you, please, bring us some light," Shoji says, panting for air. Then I finally see what's behind them.

Dark Shadow is huge, and crushing everything in Midoriya and Shoji's wake, his eyes red instead of his usual glowing yellow. "Wait, moron. Just watch." Bakugo smirks, and I follow his gaze to see that Moonfish is in the path of Dark Shadow. I get his plan. He's waiting for Dark Shadow to immobilize Moonfish before calming him down.

One of Dark Shadow's clawed hands slams down on Moonfish, rendering him unconscious, and Bakugo uses an explosion to wrangle Dark Shadow. "Oh right, we know that Bakugo and Aries are two of the villains' targets," Midoriya informed Tokoyami since he was in too much of a daze to hear anything. Midoriya started rambling about how Vlad King and Aizawa-Sensei were at camp, and that it was probably the safest place at camp.

"I see. So, our mission is to get Bakugo to camp safely." Tokoyami summed it up. Midoriya and Todoroki started setting up a setup. Bakugo and Aries would be in the middle of it all. Shoji would be in front, on the right, with Midoriya on his back, then Todoroki also in the front, but a few feet to the left, and with one of the 1-B kids on his back.
