Kishi Kaisei (My Hero Academia x Male!OC)

Chapter XXIX - Text of Urgency

Silas P.O.V.

In the dark of night, the moon and star shine bright over the mountains. We carry on with our camp activity, The Test of Courage. Midoriya and I have yet to enter the dark woods to overcome the jump scares and the creepiness of the night. Aside from the screams coming from the woods themselves, things are pretty much calm and fun for everyone.

Consider this the calm before the storm.

I am standing next to Izuku, shaking the jitters away. He probably thinks I don't notice but he lightly laughs at me. It's fine though. He won't be laughing when he needs me to hold on to him while he loses his sanity to Class B.

Soon after, my attention resorts elsewhere; and the first thought I have is that something's not right. There is something in the air.

Pixie-Bob and Mineta can attest to this as they close their eyes and breathe in the air. The scent is burning. Is everything alright in the forest?

Iida draws our sights to the sky, where he finds... black smoke?! Where the smoke comes from illuminates a bright blue hue.

Everyone is growing worried for the other students. Very few of us see Pixie-Bob abruptly picked up by some pink glow and whisked away into the woods.

The culprits reveal themselves. One of them has the blue Pussycat knocked out with a metal bar pressed over her injured head.

I grit my teeth, knowing these two. I have researched them before. Standing above the fallen Pro-Hero is a villain who has reddish hair, an orange open button-down shirt, a white t-shirt, and jeans - Kenji Hikiishi, better known as Magne. The other villain looks like a lizard reincarnate of the Hero Killer Stain, known as Spinner - real name, Shuichi Igushi.

Is it safe to say that they're affiliated with the League of Villains?

"Pixie-Bob!" Midoriya wants to rush over to aid. Tiger blocks his path.

I walk to Mandalay's side, stern, water swords solidifying in my hand. Izuku remains in my sights. I see him turn around in great fear... and he mentions the name, "Kota!"

Mandalay urges Iida to take the others back to the facility. Of course, our class rep obliges. Meanwhile, I take heed to the green-haired boy, realizing the big problem.

"Is he by himself right now?!" I gasp. Midoriya nods.

"I know where he is, Mandalay!"

"I'll go with him, to ensure their safety--" I suggest, as a hero.

Suddenly, I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. I reach in to fish it out, opening it to a message from Adonis. Reading it, my eyes widen.

[Donny: SILAS, THERE'S A FIRE!!! MEET ME AT THE FIRE!! DENKI LET VLAD KING AND AIZAWA KNOW ABOUT THE VILLAINS!!]

"So, there is a fire..." I mutter. It is still loud enough for the others to hear. Mandalay looks between Midoriya and me. She sighs and shakes her head, as it seems she has no other choice.

"Alright," She says. "Midoriya, please make sure Kota is safe wherever he is. And Azure--"

"Take out the fire and its source. On it!" I sprint directly to the woods, trying not to waste more time than we already have. Izuku quickly follows behind me, catching up in the process.

"Midoriya, do not hesitate to call if you need my help," I order him. "I will drop everything immediately to bring you and Kota back safely."

"Thank you, Azure." He replies. "And please, be careful as well."

In due time, we run in our separate ways. Mentally, I pray for his safety. At the same time, I focus on this fire, hoping Adonis is alright.

Eventually, I reach the massive blue flames.
