The atmosphere in UA was pretty tense. Everyone made sure to be on their guard, aware of the large possibility of the enemy attacking their safe haven had armed themselves in case the Hades Army attacked their community. People who were standing on the watch towers right now made sure to keep their eyes open at their surroundings.

Below the ground, heroes are preparing themself against the attack that's about to come hitting the haven. Refugees are all being relocated to a gym while heroes and Resistance members prepare themselves and start preparing by barricading the door. A few of the Resistance member armed themself with a support item provided by the school and a few weapons.

Izuku stood in the middle with the others sitting on the bench sharpening his machete and finished checking his ammo. He's feeling a sense of deja vu over what happened right now, remembering what happened back at the beach house when he took a vacation with class B.

Endeavor came and approached him. He looks alarmed and getting ready for the fight as well, "Izuku, I asked my sidekick to guard the basement. You won't have to worry about them. They in capable hands."

Izuku nods to his uncle giving him his thanks for guarding over Kendo. Death Arms and Gunhead walks towards the two flame users wanting to talk, "We're almost done. Hawks just sent us a report saying the herd should be a few hours away."

"Okay, we'd better get ready too." Izuku sheated his machete back as he began to get up.

After what happened in the gym yesterday, everyone soon realized their mistake of allowing the prisoners to stay alive at the cost of a dozen people paying the price with their lives. They refused to look past the problem that lies ahead and that cost them their safety.

Once it happens, their resolve begins to form and they begin to hold their reign as they move the prison cells away from the Refugee Camp and their cells are being guarded twenty-four hours by Resistance members. They don't like the decision either but since it's the one that's been given by them they will have to comply.

He and Endeavor walked side by side toward the group of people and he could spot Izumi who's finished gearing up and standing away from her classmate. He could also spot Katsumi's face who's scowling at him and a few others from the Bakusquad as well.

Flashback Start

The atmosphere at the meeting place was grim. Nobody lingered at the meeting place for long. Most of the people who were present at the meeting had left already the place and went either to their homes or to some other places. Izuku was the only person who remained there, staying close to the pool of blood that belonged to Kirishima and Kyou. He looked up from the pool of blood he was staring at ever since their body was taken away by Tsukauchi and a few officers.

A large group of people were gathered in the gym, having gathered there the meeting during which everyone discussed the matter of a herd of zombies which they knew was part of the Syndicate experiment, just like the one Izuku encountered on the beach house which was recently discovered by Hisoka and Shawn. They went to Izuku to tell him about this discovery immediately after they returned and Izuku wasted no time in calling everyone for a meeting about this matter.

"Both of us..." Hisoka began to speak to the people gathered in the gym for everyone to hear, "We saw it early on, they all gathered in a stadium, all placed in one spot. There must be hundreds of thousands. Maybe even more. Then they were all released from it, and now they were headed to UA we're presumed."

Hawks looked up at him, "How do you know for sure they headed towards this way?"

Shawn shrugged his shoulders at him, "It's the only place that's left that still standing. And judging by the way they headed, it's the only possible outcome."
