Bakugo tried to keep to himself on the bus ride, but that stupid shitty hair extra just wouldn't leave him alone. He and his equally loud and upbeat friends surrounded Bakugo, who was seriously two seconds from exploding. Not that Bakugo himself wasn't loud, he knew he was, but he was an angry type of loud not...whatever these extras were. They weren't anything like the extras that had followed him around in middle school, those ones only spoke if it was to agree with him or praise his quirk, where these guys talked about everything under the sun and just wouldn't shut up! They even had the balls to laugh at him and call his personality a garbage heap ! Seriously?
All Might and Aizawa-sensei sat in the front of the bus, ignoring the class's antics. Aizawa looked almost as annoyed as Bakugo was, probably because All Might wouldn't shut up either. Or maybe that's just what Aizawa always looked like? It was hard to tell.
He followed the teachers into the facility and rolled his eyes when the stupid space hero started thier spiel. Sounds like they really wanted the acronym of this place to be the same as Universal Studios Japan. And yeah, he knew quirks could kill, that's why he wanted his name to be King Explosion Murder. Ugh, just let him blow some stuff up already.
All of a sudden, a purple dot appeared in the center courtyard and Thirteen's voice trailed off as the students started muttering.
"Is this part of the training?"
"No!" Aizawa said as people started pouring out of the strange purple mist, "Those are villains."
The students fell silent as they watched the crowd grow larger. A guy with a hand on his face seemed to be the leader, but he wasn't the one the students' eyes were drawn to. The students took in a collective breath as they saw a short figure in a green hooded jacket, bright eyes visible as they scanned the students.
"I-I thought Mastermind never participated in his crimes..." Yoyorozu said faintly, "What's different this time?"
Aizawa was already running down to meet the villains, trying to keep Mastermind and the hand villain in his sights. Unfortunately, this meant that he didn't notice when the mist villain left his field of vision.
"Hello students," The mist villain stood in front of the door, "We would normally take the time to introduce ourselves, but Mastermind assures us time is of the essence."
Bakugo ran forward and saw shitty hair doing the same, but before they could reach the guy, the ground beneath their feet had disappeared and they were somewhere else entirely, surrounded by villains on every side. Bakugo grinned. Finally a good excuse to go all out.
Izuku grinned as all the students were spread throughout the facility. Perfect. All Might would need to track them down before he would be able to help any of them escape, but he'd have to get past the Nomu first. He stalked toward them, flexing his muscles and looking intimidating as his smile turned into a grimace.
"You fiends, what have you done with them?!"
"Hahaha! Don't worry All Might ," Shigaraki cackled, "we're not here for them, we're here for you! Nomu, get him!"
The Nomu surged forward and All Might leveled a punch at his gut. Izuku took a sick sort of satisfaction in the look of shock that he saw on All Might's face before Nomu returned his punch and he went flying across the courtyard.
"Ahhh!" Both pros looked toward the front entrance as a cry rang out from the entrance and Thirteen crumpled under the force of their own quirk. There wasn't time for them to dwell on it, however, because the Nomu charged and the horde of villains swarmed Eraserhead. Izuku stood back and watched as both pros fought. It really was quite impressive.
