Multiple villains poured out of the warp gate. "How could so many villains break into a UA facility?!" Kirishima exclaimed as his eyes widened. He activated his Quirk and hardened his fists defensively.

Momo stepped forward. "13, why aren't the alarms going off?" "I'm...not quite sure." The pro responded. "Is the entire campus under attack?" Todoroki looked at the ground. It was difficult to tell whether he was angry or not, as his expression stayed stone cold. "Or is this their only target?"

An unexpected voice answered his question. "They're most likely only targeting USJ." Sunny said. Only...This wasn't Sunny. This person looked almost exactly the same, sure, but their skin was as white as paper, which contrasted with his usual pale skin. Uraraka, who was standing next to him, was shocked. "Sunny...! Wait, this is your Quirk activating, right?" She questioned. 'Sunny' rolled his eyes. "It's Omori to you. And yes, this is Sunny's Quirk activating. Can we please focus on  the more important situation at hand?" He lectured the girl.

"Anyway, didn't you hear the guy? They're targeting All Might, and they knew he'd be here. They wouldn't attack anyone at the school. It's much more practical to kill him here." A few flinched when he said 'kill', to which Omori sighed. "What, is the 'k' word banned now?" He huffed. Uraraka shook her head. "No, it's just...unusual seeing and talking to you instead of-you know, Sunny. Not that I mean anything bad!"

Todoroki pointed to the crowd. "If the alarm censors aren't being triggered, then one of these villains must have a Quirk that can somehow turn them off. But-" His expression darkened. "If they chose to enter a UA facility while a class full of to-be heroes is present, then they're fools for trespassing here. Whatever their plan, they must have a concrete objective in mind." He finished. Omori's glare hardened. "That is...to kill All Might." He spat out.

Aizawa's eyes started to glow as he stepped in front of the class protectively. "Thirteen, evacuate the students. Try calling the school. These villains somehow counteracted the sensors. It's possible someone with radio-wave-type powers is interfering." He explained. "It's as if I said basically the exact same thing a minute ago." Omori scoffed, inspecting his nails. Uraraka chuckled dryly. "You're much more...sassy, huh?"

Aizawa's eye twitched at the remark, though he showed no other reaction. "Kaminari, you try contacting the school with your Quirk." "Yes sir!" Kaminari saluted.

Izuku stared at Aizawa in astonishment. "What about you, sir? Will you fight all of these villains by yourself?! With that many, even if you erase their Quirks..."

"He'll be fine, so what gives?" Omori scoffed. "He's not a pro hero for nothing. Still, he'll probably get pretty beaten up." He sighed. 

Omori walked up next to Aizawa, who put an arm in front of him. "Kid, stay back. These are real villains. No matter how highly you think of yourself, you aren't-" He paused when Omori looked up with an unusually mundane expression. "With all due respect, I'm perfectly capable of handling myself. Please move aside, sensei."

Aizawa gritted his teeth, but eventually pushed his hand down. "...I'm leaving it to you, Thirteen." He said, giving Omori a nonverbal confirmation. The younger student gave an eerie grin. "Good choice, sensei."

The crowd of villains crept closer, and their faces were much more visible. Their expressions ranged from maniacal smiles to unreasonably boiling anger, most likely towards the 1-A student's to-be hero status.

One villain stepped forwards. He had red hair and some sort of metal helmet covering his face. His fingers warped into miniature cannons. "Didn't our intel say it would just be Thirteen and All Might? All I see is some geezer and a child...If you think you can come at us with just that..." His grin widened. "-Then you're an idiot!"

Aizawa's eyes started to glow as he activated his Quirk, his hair floating. The villain stumbled back. "Huh? My Quirk..." The next thing he knew, he was grabbed by Erasurehead's scarf and flung across USJ.

"Idiot, he's Erasurehead!" Another female villain yelled. Her fists turned into a black liquid that sizzled and smoked. "He can erase Quirks just by looking at them! Attack the kid!" She ran to Omori, raising a fist and letting out a fighting cry.

Omori activated 'Observe' and felt the urge to protect his face. He moved slightly to the right, and the villain stumbled forwards. He activated 'Cripple'. Cracks appeared on the floor underneath the villain, and she screamed when they crawled onto her legs. She felt the bones in her legs shatter, so she fell onto the ground, crying out in agony. Omori summoned 'Red Hands' and pinned her onto the floor. More hands sprouted from his back, giving off a red hue that covered him. "The fact that I'm a kid doesn't mean I'll be an easy target." He lectured.

He saw Aizawa fighting off villains in the corner of his eye. "Wow...He's pretty good." He hummed. "Don't look away from your opponent, kid!" Another ran up to him from behind, unhinging his jaw to reveal several rows of shark teeth. A red hand simply grabbed his throat and hung him in the hair. The villain flailed around defenselessly, screaming a string of curses. "First of all, don't yell when you're trying to do a sneak attack." He said as he felt subtle irritation settle in. "And second..." He threw the villain into the crowd, a dangerous glint in his eye.

"Don't think for a second that I won't kill you, just because I'm a hero."

"...Sunny?!" Omori flinched as he heard a familiar voice behind him. He turned around to see...

"...Basil. Funny seeing you here, friend."
