Zero - A Vigilante Deku Story

Chapter 31 - Hands off my son!

Hi there!

I hope you had a wonderful start to the new year. Thank you for all the love you gave my stories during the last year. I'm excited what will be happening during the new year.

I'm sending love and hugs to anybody who might need it. Don't pressure yourself with too many unrealistic new years resolutions. You are good the way you are. So hold your head up high and be badass. :)

POV Aizawa

After all the students had finally entered Ground Gamma, the underground hero made his way to the adjacent control room. Everything was already prepared there and the screens provided him with images of the area as soon as the cameras detected any movement.

The first groups had already found civilians to evacuate. Bakugou and Zero were just coming back through the entrance. Each of them had a girl from one of the general studies classes on their backs. His students set them down in the designated spot, though Bakugou could have been a little more careful.

By the time the other students in his class took their first civilians outside, the problem child duo was already inside for the second time. The two were leading by some distance.

Aizawa concentrated on the other pairs. Especially on Mineta, who was now allowed to attend class again after his warning. It was unthinkable that the boy would molest one of the volunteer girls. So far, things were looking good. Hopefully he had finally learned that his behavior had consequences.

Three other groups had already been out for the second time in the meantime. Where had Bakugou and Zero gone? He had expected them to be in for the fourth time by now and not still on their third round.

With a furrowed brow, Aizawa looked at the screens until he found Bakugou, but there was no sign of Zero. What was going on? All Might was also visible. Were they having trouble evacuating the big hero? Aizawa brought up the image from the camera on the main screen so he could see it better and turned on the sound.

All Might was injured and it looked like he was under attack. Who was his opponent? This wasn't supposed to be a combat exercise. Had villains invaded?

"Aizawa!" Bakugou yelled. "Get your sleepy ass over here. We need your quirk!"

"What the ...?"

All Might took a swing and hit something. Aizawa's eyes widened in horror. Zero had become visible from the blow and crashed into a tree without braking at that moment. Bakugou rushed to him. "Hey Zero, come to yourself, okay? What's wrong with you all of a sudden?"

Zero pushed him away and stormed back towards All Might. That was all Aizawa needed to know. If Zero had a reason to attack the number 1 hero and Bakugou was calling him for help, this was serious. He sent the students' location to his watch and opened the radio for the staff.

"Aizawa here. There's an incident during evacuation training in Ground Gamma. One of the students is fighting All Might for an unknown reason. I request assistance in taking care of the remaining students. Nem, please come to the coordinates I'm about to send you. My quirk may not be enough to finish the job. Chiyo, stand by to take care of at least two injured people. I'm heading to the interior of Ground Gamma now. Over."

No sooner had he spoken than Aizawa cut the connection. He had no time for questions and stormed out of the control room. Outside, he passed a few of his students who were currently in the evacuation zone.

"What's going on, Aizawa-sensei?" Iida asked.

Instead of stopping, the underground hero only slowed down momentarily. "All students who are currently outside are not allowed to re-enter Ground Gamma. If anyone comes out, have them wait here with the others. Other teachers will be here soon, listen to them. Take care of it, Iida."
