"Master...? I thought you were the boss around here! Pretty disappointing..." Bakugo insulted Shigaraki. He was trying to escape while the only thing I was staring at two people in the room. Two people who I should know. Ophiuchus and Cetus. The thirteenth and fourteenth zodiac signs. Ophiuchus was smirking, his features unlike any of the zodiac, and Cetus was staring at me with that same smirk. Except they were older than me, which wasn't right since all us zodiacs were born the same year but they're older.

"I'm actually impressed by how unwilling they both are to listen to reason. Kurogiri. Compress. Put them to sleep again." Shigaraki commanded.

"Want me to listen? Stuff it and go to hell!" Bakugo yelled.

I had the feeling Shigaraki might've actually been about to hurt Bakugo when there was a knock. "Hello. Kamino pizza delivery." A monotone voice said. We all turned toward the door.

No one was able to react or open the door as it was smashed open to reveal All Might and other heroes. I recognized the wooden arms of Kamui Woods who was using his quirk to hold the villains. Dabi, the villain with the mottled flesh, was about to use his quirk when an old man in a yellow camp appeared and knocked him out with one kick. 

"There's no escape for you, league of villains why you ask. Because we... are here!" The door opened to reveal another hero. Edgeshot.

 "Kamino pizza is more than just those of us here." He said calmly, opening the door wider to let in a few S.W.A.T officers. "Endeavor is out there, along with more skilled heroes and police officers. You're surrounded." Edgeshot informed them as if he was talking about an everyday topic.

All Might turned to Bakugo and me. "Must've been scary...good job holding out. I'm sorry, you're okay now." All Might gave us a thumbs up. I raise an eyebrow, my face bored.

"Sca...Scary? As if, I almost had them!" I scoffed at Bakugo's words. We were being saved, couldn't he have a little gratitude?

"Kurogiri...bring them over to play!" Shigaraki commanded, and yet Kurogiri didn't comply, I didn't pay attention to his response. All Might put a hand on Bakugo's shoulder, and one on mine. I wanted to shrug his hand off, but I kept it there to show...respect? I guess.

"It ends here. Tomura Shigaraki." All Might said, with his signature smile on, but the rest o his face didn't match up with that smile. Quick as lightning Kurogiri was knocked out, courtesy of Edgeshot. 

 "I..." Shigaraki began. Suddenly, there were two explosions of black sludge on either side of Shigaraki, with Nomu poking out of them. "HATE YOU!" He screamed.

I started coughing and that same black sludge came out of my mouth and swallowed me up.

And I appeared somewhere unfamiliar. The villains were also appearing all around me and Bakugo. We were back-to-back to each other, the villains in a circle around us. "What was that?!" Bakugo questioned.

"Apologies...Bakugo and Aries." The strange man in the skull mask said. The strange man said something to Shigaraki.

All Might appeared, in the leveled field. "What took you so long?" All Might punched the strange man, and he blocked. He...blocked All Might's punch, and he's unharmed. When the strange man uses his quirk, all Might lunges for us to get some weird thing spinning around his arm. He punches All Might, and he's sent flying back.

"All Might!" Both Bakugo and I yelled in unison.

"Don't fret. That won't be enough to kill him." The strange man had a smooth voice that sent chills down my spine. The strange man turned to Shigraki. "You need to flee, Tomura. And take the boys with you. Kurogiri will help with your escape." Something strange flew from the man's fingers, and into Kurogiri, a misty portal opened. Forced quirk activation...? "Now go." The man commanded with his smooth voice.

All Might appeared from out of nowhere and punched the strange man. The villains are going to try and take us through the portal. But no way are we going with them. 

An ice ramp appears. A familiar giant scorpion carries a familiar group of people. Bakugo uses an explosion to boost himself up and takes me with him.

The scorpion carries us away, out of the reach of Mr. Compress, who is grabbed by a giant Mt. Lady. Then she falls, blood staining her face. The old man appears again, kicking all the conscious villains in their faces.


The scorpion shrinks and disappears in a blur of white light. Scorpio lunges at me, and instead of punching me like I thought she would, she buries her head into my shoulder. "You idiot." She pounds on my shoulder with her fist, and I feel my shoulder getting wet. 

In all of the time I've seen Scorpio, I have only seen her cry once. The only time was when her mother and father died, though I think she was only crying for her father. She didn't even cry the one time she accidentally fell out of the window, and she broke both her arms which were breaking her fall. She had to go to the hospital, and even then I didn't see her cry, but she probably did when she was in her room alone. The thing about Scorpio is that she doesn't like crying in front of people. She'll go into a room with a bored face, and come out with that same face, even if she cried for hours inside that room. She calls it 'showing weakness' and if there's one thing she would never do is show weakness to anyone.

 All of a sudden people start cheering for him. I join them. So do Bakugo and Midoriya. Soon, the entire crowd is shouting encouragement.

 All Might is on the screen. But he doesn't look like All Might. He's all skin and bones. His muscles are gone. How long has he been like this? Is this the drawback to the Symbol of Peace? All of a sudden people start cheering for him. I join them. So do Bakugo and Midoriya. Soon, the entire crowd is shouting encouragement.

And so we watched. We watched the true meaning of 'Go Beyond, Plus Ultra' We watched as All Might, even though he had no strength fought for us. Fought for the rest of Kamino Ward. For the rest of Japan.

Heroes came. Endeavor. Edgeshot. Kamui Woods. Everyone who saved us. And then we watched in horror as the villain used some sort of weird combination with his quirk to make his arm huge. To make lots of stuff poking out of it, along with other, smaller arms. It was weird, to say the least.

We watched in pure horror as the villain hit All Might. And then, against all odds, All Might beat the villain. He lifted his fist up and then pointed at the camera. "Now it's...your turn." He said. Such strange words.

A/N: Ended off on a weird note but I ended it. How do you guys feel about Ophiuchus and Cetus? I need opinions. I have to do so much research for their looks and abilities (which I think I have down) but I think most of it I'm going to make up by myself based on their colors, personalities, etc. I'm so sorry if anyone here is an Ophiuchus, but I don't believe in the thirteenth sign. And I added Cetus because there is no way I will have an uneven number of zodiacs. Anyways, vote, leave a comment, and I'll see you next time. ;]
