"Everyone, run," Aizawa shouted. "All students return to the lodging. Vlad, go with them and keep them safe."

"But, what about-."

"Just go!" Izaya wasn't sure, but he thought he saw Vlad King glance at him. "Now everyone, hurry up and get out of here."

Izaya didn't want to leave them, but he didn't have much choice. But he knew things should be okay soon, he did send up the flare after all.

"Wait stop Michiya," Aizawa called out to him. Izaya stopped and looked at him confused. "You stay here, we need to talk."

That was when Izaya noticed Ragdoll staring straight at him, a little on edge. "Dammit," he thought. "I knew she would notice something off about me, and I've always known I couldn't pretend forever. But still, it hurts."

"I believe you already know how my quirk works," Ragdoll told him. "So tell me, who are you really, because you're not a normal student."

"Me? I'm just a person..." Izaya's hands opened up and fireballs appeared around him.

"Everyone, look out!" Tiger ran at him, pulling back an arm to punch him, but when he went to strike, Izaya was suddenly behind him.

"Who's a hero to redeem myself." The fireballs flew forward and the heroes got ready to dodge, but they went flying past them and at the Nomus. "You're right, I'm not a normal student, but I'm not your enemy."

The high end Nomu came leaping out of the fire and at Aizawa, who noticed too late and was unable to move away in time. But before it could attack, two figures came leaping out of the trees behind Izaya and both punched it, sending it flying. The heroes stared in shock, not at the Nomu that was sent flying, but the two figures. They were both Izaya.

"W-what's going on here Michiya," Aizawa asked.

"I don't think now is the best time to ask that. We should take care of these ugly things first. And don't worry, we won't attack you or the students, in fact, I have some forces near by protecting them. Discreetly too, since we don't want them getting attacked."

"Forces?"

That was when the heroes noticed a rumble."Alright, you know the plan! Take out the League! If any normal forces are here, do what you can to capture them so we can ask them questions later!"

Suddenly, in the direction of the rumbling across the clearing from the heroes and IZaya, emerged more Nomus. But then another sound filled the air. "RIGHT!!!" Behind Izaya appeared even more clones of him, all running towards the Nomus.

"Do you have any idea about what's going on," Mandalay asked Ragdoll.

"No, my quirk only gives me location and weaknesses of up to a hundred people. That's how I knew about Izaya, there wasn't much in the way of weaknesses, especially not like someone normal should be. INstead of water being something of a weakness because of his pyrokinesis, it's not even considered one. And his biggest weakness seems to be himself."

"How the hell are there even more of you Michiya, if that's really your name," Aizawa growled. "Is this a quirk at work?"

"Yes this is a quirk, so I ask that you don't use yours. It would put us all at danger if these guys were destroyed. And right about another thing, my name isn't really Izaya Michiya. But like I said, we have more important matters to deal with." Izaya jumped up into the air, OFA sending him flying up high, before using that same quirk to punch down a flying Nomu.

Izaya landed back on the ground as multiple of her clones were sent flying into the air and destroyed. He looked into the crowd and noticed that the most damage was being done by the high end, but the other Nomus were also holding their own quite well.
