(In an alternate MHA verse)

The sun had not been seen in days. The sky is constantly cloudy with the hint of rain every now and then. In the wasteland of what was once a thriving city reduced to destroyed buildings and ashes. In the center of the space stands a statue of All Might with the words "No he is not" painted on it.

Among the fallen debris some of U.A's former heroes in training are racing around with supplies in their bags.

"Hurry up," Mineta whispers to his companions Ashido and Hagakure, his feet quickly but carefully stepping through broken glass. "Bad guys always have a sixth sense when it comes to things like this. Always popping up right when the heroes are doing some Important work."

"We're almost back," Ashido assured him, fixing the cloak on her head as a small gust of wind blows over them.

"I told you it'd be a lot safer if only I went," Hagakure argues. "He wouldn't have seen me."

"But he would've smelled you unless you had a cloak on," Mineta responds. "His sense of smell lead him to many secret bases."

"Can't believe I'm saying this but Mineta's right," Ashido agrees. "We can't be too careful. Not now."

The three off them continue on their way past streets filled with broken cars and small fires. While climbing over a pile of Mineta's foot accidentally loosens a medium sized rock that tumbled down the pile and hits a car. Each of them hold their breaths, their hearts beating in their ears hoping the pile wouldn't come crashing down. With the coast seemingly clear they prepare to continue their journey but then the car's alarm starts blaring and in the distance can horrifying roar can be heard. There was no more time to waste. Each of them took off running with Ashido signaling into a radio of their return and the danger approaching. Down the street a sewer tunnel lid slightly opens and out of it Kirishima's head pops out and he waves his hand signaling for them to hurry. They desperately push their legs to run faster as behind him the threat is getting closer. Ashido is the first to get in with Hagakure trialing behind her. Mineta tries to jump in but soon finds himself between a set of jaws rapidly closing in on him. Before they could a sudden impact causes whatever wanted Mineta as a snack to go tumbling away. A large cloud of smoke appears and Deku dives into the open manhole. The chase hasn't stopped. Each of them run through the sewers and eventually find a crack in the wall that leads to a subway station with an old worn down train that has been modified as a mobile command center. The tunnel shakes as they can hear what was chasing them break through the manhole and is now search for them. It wouldn't be long before it found them.

"Uraraka start the train," Deku speaks into a radio. "We don't have a lot of time. He's coming."

The train begins to groan and wheels creak as it slowly starts to move and build up momentum. The back door opens and Mirio stretches out his hand to help Hagakure up. The tunnel shakes as behind them the crack in the wall they slipped in through shatters and through the dust they can see the Sinister glow of a set of blue eyes. The shake causes Mineta to trip on the track and drop his bag but Deku speeds up and manages to pick him up at the cost of leaving the bag behind. With Deku's speed they enter the train seconds before Ashido and just as Mirio extends his hand to help her up a claw appears swiping at him. In the split second He activates his quirk so that the claw could pass through him but leaves his hand solid so Ashido could grab onto it. That was the plan. That was the last minute quick thinking trick that could've saved hundreds of people if the world hadn't fallen but he was satisfied with saving a dear friend an fellow UA alumni. That was what was supposed to happen. But it didn't because the end of the claw had cut where he left his hand solid for Ashido to grab onto. The blood that came from it hit Ashido in the face and caused her to stumble onto the ground. As the train creaked away she hopelessly extended her hand out hoping someone would be able to grab it but really she was trying to prevent herself from accepting the impending reality lingering over her. Everyone on the train could only watch as her hand gets shoved against the tracks and the claw grabs her face.
