  Blood and screams filled the center of the USJ as the students were scattered across the giant domed structure to fend for themselves. The agonizing screams of their teacher being attacked, by a gigantic bird-like creature that crushed his arms, sent shivers down their spines as they were paralyzed by fear. "So you can erase someone's powers by looking at them, so what? It may be irritating, but when faced with true destructive power, it's nothing. You might as well be a quirkless little kid." A young man with bluish-white hair spoke as he had hands covering his body and face, red tubing connecting each hand together. The bird-like creature roared as it grabbed the hero's head, pulling it up before suddenly slamming it back into the ground. Meanwhile, in a lake nearby, three students were hiding while watching their teacher get brutalized like nothing. "Tomura Shigaraki." A black and purple mist with glowing yellow eyes suddenly appeared next to the man covered in hands, gaining the villain leader's attention. "Kurogiri, did you kill Thirteen yet?" "The rescue hero is down for now, but I'm afraid one of the students managed to get free." This revelation irritated the man now known as Shigaraki, making him violently scratch his neck out of annoyance.

"Kurogiri, if you weren't the best version of our warp gate, I'd disintegrate you into atoms. We won't win if a ton of pros show up, even with our secret weapons. It's game over now, back to the main menu we go. Might as well go home now." Shigaraki said as he turned towards the purple and black mist villain, his neck covered in bloody scratch marks. "W-wait, did he say they're gonna leave?" A short boy with what looked like purple balls on his head said with a lisp, sweat rolling down the boy's cheek. "Sounds like it to me, ribbit." A green-haired girl said before making a frog sound, as a green-haired boy watched while a bit weary of the situation. "Though, I have a bad feeling about this, Midoriya." The green-haired boy nodded to the girl's statement as they watched the villains carefully. "Oh right, before we leave, let's ensure the Symbol of Peace is broken," Shigaraki spoke with a grin behind his hand mask, suddenly appearing in front of the student trio with his hand reaching out to touch the frog girl's face. The world suddenly went as if everything was in slow motion, with Midoriya aiming a punch at Shigaraki as his arm lit up with bright red veins, only for the bird creature to block the punch with Shigaraki falling backward from the air pressure the punch created. The creature grabbed Midoriya by his arm as if to attack him before a loud explosion caught everyone's attention.

"Fear not, students. I am here!" The cloud of dust soon dissipated to reveal a hulking man with blond hair and an angry expression. "He made it... All Might..." Midoriya muttered as Shigaraki glared up at the hulking figure that angrily frowned at the villains. "Looks like we just earned a continue for our game..." Shigaraki said as All Might slowly walked up to the staircase that led down to the center of the domed building. "Sorry, I couldn't shake the feeling that something went wrong when I couldn't contact Aizawa or Thirteen. So on my way here, I ran into Young Iida and learned of the villainy at play here. So fear no longer, my students. Because I am here!" All Might reassured the scared students around him, ripping the tie off his dress shirt. The group of random thugs and criminals that were taken out before had woken up and stared at the Symbol of Peace in fear before All Might quickly dispatched them with haste. All Might picked up the brutally beaten pro hero on the ground, noticing the many injuries the teacher had sustained. 'I'm sorry, Aizawa. I should've been here sooner.' Without wasting more time, the Symbol of Peace grabbed the student trio and got away from the villain trio, the speed causing a blast of air that knocked the hand off Shigaraki's face.

"No no NO! It wasn't supposed to be like this! How he is this fast still, Father?" Shigaraki muttered to himself while picking the hand back up and placing it on his face. "But he isn't as fast as he used to be in the past. Which means the rumor is true after all. All Might is growing weaker." Shigaraki spoke with a grin while glaring at the pro hero with his red eyes. "All Might! Be careful, I used my quirk on the brain villain, but it didn't faze him, even if I didn't break my arm." "Young Midoriya! I got this!" All Might reassured the student with a smile and peace sign gesture, letting the student trio carry their battered teacher to the rest of the students at the top of the stairs. All Might turned his attention to Shigaraki and the bird-like creature, his signature smile plastered on his face as he launched himself at the two villains. "CAROLINA!..." "Nomu!" All Might flew towards the two villains as the bird-like creature stood in front of Shigaraki, attempting to block the oncoming attack. "...SMASH!" All Might made an X-symbol with his arms before slashing them down, creating an X-shaped air blast at the Nomu when a transparent yellow wall of air blocked the oncoming attack, something in the air gaining the pro's attention. 'No! It can't be!' All Might thought as he looked at the origin of the air wall, a boy with white hair seemingly floating in place in the air. The boy looked down at the pro with a blank stare as his hand was extended towards him, a small hole in the middle of the boy's palm.
