Inside of U.A's conference room, the vigilantes explained why they helped take down all of those villains.

"These villains were hired as mercenaries by the Bloodline, a group that we've been chasing for a while." Cody explained.
"Recently, Cody explained to me that your students could help us in the war against the Bloodline, and their potential allies." Randy explained. "Allies? Tell us about them." Aizawa ordered. "Listen, Cat-erpillar. I doubt your in the right position to boss me and my friends around." Randy responded, testing Aizawa's patience.

"Allow me to explain. There are two major villain factions that are acquaintances with the Bloodline. The Judgement Day, and Imperium. Both extremely powerful in their own right. We believe that Roman Reigns, the leader of the Bloodline, will get those two factions to come here to Japan. And if push comes to shove, we have our own allies too. But we would also need the help of your top class, 1-A." Cody explained. "What makes you think we'll allow our students to fight your war!?" Present Mic shouted. "We'll be right alongside them. And if needed, you all will be too." Cody responded.

"We never got to introduce ourselves, I'm Cody Rhodes, the leader of my group, the guy who's trying to test your lazy friend's patience, is Randy Orton, the Viper. The man sitting over there, is Kevin Owens, the Prizefighter. And the man on my right is Seth Rollins, the Architect." Cody explained.........

The Kamino Ward:

Roman sat on the throne that once belonged to All For One, as his Wiseman, Paul Heyman entered the throne room.
"My Tribal Chief, I have terrible news!!" He shouted. This caught Roman's attention. "Tell me, Wiseman." He said. "Cody Rhodes and his team mates are planning on uniting with the heroes! If they unite, then—" "Wiseman, you seem to have forgotten the alliances I've formed over the years. If I want to, I can call them to come here." Roman responded calmly as he stood up from his throne and pulled out an untraceable phone from his pocket and dialed a number.

"It's time." He said as he hung up and dialed another number. "The time of reckoning has come." He said as he hung up, dropping the phone onto the floor and destroying it.

"Jimmy, Jey, front and center!" Roman ordered as the Usos knelt before Roman.
"At your service, Uce." Jimmy said.
"There's something I need the two of you to do. Target these U.A students." Roman said as he handed them three pictures.
Izuku Midoriya
Katsuki Bakugo
Shoto Todoroki
"Take them out." Roman ordered.
"Yes, My Tribal Chief." Jimmy responded as he and Jey left for their mission........

In the classroom of Class 1-A, Izuku sat, pondering, did these vigilantes have history with the Bloodline?
He heard the voices of Seth and Cody outside the room.

"I understand your stress, but you need to keep calm." Cody said
"Cody, how do you expect me to keep calm!? God damn it! I was a part of the Shield with Roman, he was like a brother to me!! But ever since he lost himself to his ego, and Dean going missing, I can't stop having nightmares about that day!" Seth responded.
Izuku walked out of the classroom wanting to see what's going on.
Seth and Cody noticed this.
"Sorry kid, just some problems from the past." Seth said. "It's clearly more than that. You need to talk to someone." Izuku said. "The only person I could talk to, was presumed dead three years ago." Seth responded as he walked away.

Seth then found an object that seemed all too familiar to him. A radio. He picked it up, reminiscing about his past with the Shield............

Flashback:

A twenty-three year-old Seth Rollins stood in front of two other vigilantes. The Big Dog, Roman Reigns, and the Lunatic Fringe, Dean Ambrose.
All three with a common goal.
"Protecting the innocent, I'm guessing it's a common theme between the three of us?" Seth questioned.
The twenty-five year-old Roman Reigns nodded in response. "The world's got a lot of dirt, even some pro heroes aren't as heroic as people think." Dean responded. "That's why we're here." Seth said as he reached his fist out. "Sierra." He said. "Hotel." Roman responded. Sticking his fist with Seth's. "India." Dean said as he put his hand with Roman's and Seth's. "Echo." Seth said. "Lima." Roman said. "Delta." Dean said.

"SHIELD!!" The three chanted simultaneously, they then jumped from the rooftop not as individuals, but as a team, as brothers in arms, forming what would become one of the most infamous vigilante groups in history that sought Justice for those who couldn't obtain it, struck down evil........

Present day:

Seth smiled, wishing that the Shield was still alive, and that Roman wasn't consumed by his greed. He then bumped into Izuku, who was walking to Nezu's office.
"Oops, sorry about that, kid." Seth said apologetically. "It's no problem, Seth. Also, I'm sorry about your past." Izuku responded. "You shouldn't be the one apologizing, I should. It was my fault that Roman fell to greed, and Dean left." Seth said.
Izuku then walked away, leaving Seth to his thoughts. Suddenly, a familiar transmission came through on the radio

"Sierra. Hotel. India. Echo. Lima. Delta." The transmission spoke, with a familiar voice.

"SHIELD. Could it be Dean sending a message? He pulled out his old notebook of SHIELD codes, and found one that made the most sense.

S-Stay Alert
H-Help is on the way
I-Internal Threat
E-Extreme risk
L-Location: Warehouse Unit
D-Dean's Coming

"Internal Threat, like a traitor?" Seth wondered. He then realized the message being sent, and rushed to Nezu's office. Taking into consideration the other messages. There was an abandoned warehouse a couple blocks east of U.A, an the fact that the message said "Dean's Coming" also gave Seth a sense of clarity.

Nezu sat in his office, just after ending a meeting with Izuku, when Seth bursted into the office.
"Ah Mister Rollins, what brings you here?" He questioned. "I got bad news from an old friend of mine. There may be a traitor in your ranks." Seth responded, shocking Nezu to his core.
"How do you know?" He questioned. "I had intel sent to me by an old friend." Seth explained as Cody entered the room. "A traitor? Who was it that sent you the message?" He asked. "I'm about to meet him. I gotta do this alone." Seth said as he ran to the armory, and donned his old Shield gear before taking off toward the warehouse..........
