Quirkless Rejects

UA Sports Festival

Dang, thought Deku, I knew there would be some commotion but this is ridiculous!

He had just announced that they would be attacking the UA Sports Festival and everyone, aside from the main members, was shouting over each other. Deku ducked his head. Ah... this is annoying. He lifted his foot,

*BANG*

and slammed it down on the chair. It was loud and the metal soles of his hightops only contributed to that. The crowd quickly shut their mouths. He sighed and lifted his head up again. "Now, if you'd give me a chance to speak, I'll finish my sentence." He waited. No one spoke up, so Deku continued. "We will be attacking the UA Sports Festival. The morning news will most likely be covering what we did tonight on the bridge but that is not enough." He grinned under the mask but his sunglasses showed the angry red dots. "We need a much bigger stage."

This time they were excited whispering.

"We will only subdue the hero's that come down to fight, none of the civilians, that wouldn't get the Quirkless Rejects anything but bad publicity. No killing anyone though. Past that, we have many explosions. One of you will stay back to set them off just as we are making our escape. Everyone here will be equipped with a high explosive. When fighting, throw it in a circle so that they surround the heroes but far enough that they DO NOT hurt them. Am I understood?"

The crowd nodded before one raised their hand. "What is the point of doing that then?"

"Well," Deku started, "it is a high scale threat, basically. The notion that we could have blown up the future of the hero society and have the power to do so. Seeing the students, those who are supposed to grow up to be society's next protectors, be attacked twice will lower the faith in the hero's and the future of them. Is that a sufficient answer?" The asked nodded.

Deku's sunglasses shown happy. "Well then," Animation, Bubblegum, Jester, Doom, Grimlin, and Fox circled Deku, "We would like to officially welcome you to the Quirkless Rejects, friends!" The crowd cheered.

The night was long but the new members did get to their new rooms, eventually. Deku and the original members sat at a table in the trashed warehouse. He was just nodding off when Shinso came up to them. "Um... Deku, sir?" Deku opened his eyes and turned towards the voice. "Oh, Shinso, was it? What's up?"

The purple-haired teen looked away. "I am actually a student at UA."

Deku's eyes widened. "Oh," spoke Grimlin, "are you worried about the attack, then?" Shinso nodded.

"Yes, Grimlin sir. I'm not sure whether I will be able to get away with skipping that day."

"Then don't," piped Doom. Everyone looked at him. "Just bring your mask to school and when we show up, put it on. But make sure they know it's you, it'll have more of an impact to see another UA student turn."

"Another?"

"You'll see."

Deku nodded, "Yep! Don't worry Shinso, it'll be okay. Now go head back to your room, we've got a long week ahead of us." Shinso bowed. "Thank you."

Yes, it was, in fact, a very busy week and Giran got the bulk of it. The Quirkless Rejects all got registered through a paper system run by Grimlin to keep track of the ever-expanding group. So many fake IDs and identities were needed and he had to contact a lot of the black market network for positions that could help the sudden expansion. Giran was so done by the end of the week that he almost thought about cutting ties with the Quirkless Rejects but thought better of it. They were now, by far, his best customer.
