Start of Summer:-

On the way to the Dorms:-

3rd Person POV:-

Everyone was heading towards the dorm after their last day of school before the summer break. They were talking about the sudden changes in the UA's summer schedule.

" Uh, I was so excited about the summer camp. Why did they have to cancel it? " Ashido whines.

" It's for our own safety. They can't possibly arrange the camp in deep woods after the incident with the third years " Ida tells them.

" The League of villains just doesn't learn their lessons. This time they targeted the third years on their camp thinking that they would win against them. They really need to get some brain in their heads " Kaminari jokes.

" The fight wasn't fully in our favour. I heard that the league of villains had new members with quite powerful quirks. And their secret ambush was quite well planned. It took almost four students to defeat one villain. His name was muscular I think. And they were prepared to retreat. Muscular and other two villains were arrested while the others escaped leaving no trace " Shinso tells them.

" Where did you get that information Shinso? " Todoroki asks.

" I overheard it from Aizawa sensei. They were quite worried about the whole situation. That's why most probably they wouldn't allow us to visit our home but ask our parents to visit us " Shinso tells.

" I heard that too when I was trying to eardrops on the other class girls through the walls " Jiro adds.

" Damn it those villains. I want to search for them and blast them. If they attacked us instead, I bet I would have defeated at least one villain without anyone's help " Bakugo expresses his opinion.

" If I were you Bakugo, I wouldn't go out to find danger. Out of all this, I am happy that at least they can't attack us now. A summer that we wouldn't have to worry about villains " Hagaruke tells them.

" Yeah, they have to recover from their damages before attacking again. But the authorities still need to increase our safety by the rules. They still can attack if they want to " Tokoyami speaks.

" Yes, we can " a voice poped from their left side.

They all turned towards the source of their voice. Everyone prepared themselves for a battle. But for almost half a minute there was no response. Some had lowered their guards, some were still confused about the mystery voice while some increased their surrounding awareness.

' Clank ' the sound of metal hitting the pavement was heard.

In an instant, they all were engulfed in thick smoke reducing their vision up to a few steps only.  Most of them were panicking now but some still kept their cool.

Izuku was a bit surprised by the sudden smoke but was expecting something to happen. He was trying his best to locate the others in the smoke.

Suddenly, he felt a tap on his left shoulder. By his instincts he looked over his shoulder but then he felt something graze against his right arm. He quickly turned back to see the thing. As he did, he could feel a shrill pain as if a blade was cutting into his right arm. 

Everything became extremely slow for him. He caught a glimpse of the person responsible for it. He had a gas mask over his face, but he could see his eyes. They were cold red eyes staring at him sending chills up his spine. But then Izuku's eyes widened in horror. He was dragging an unconsciousness Ochako by her collar with his other hand.

He could feel anger and fear filling in him with One for All. Without any thinking, he lifted his arm and charged One for All to its full power. The attacker's eyes widened seeing something he didn't expect to see. But before the attack could contact him, Izuku felt a strong kick on his back throwing him off balance and making him fall on the ground cancelling the attack. 

The smoke slowly starts to fade away. Izuku had a rough idea about the intruder's direction. He rushed in that direction and soon got out of the smoke cloud. His vision was a bit hazy but he could see most of the things. But there was no sign of the intruder. He looked back to search the other direction but then he felt his legs getting feeble. Then he couldn't feel his arms and he collapsed on the ground. His whole body was paralysed. It affected his chest and he couldn't even breathe without him knowing. But he didn't become unconscious due to lack of oxygen. All he was able to do is witness the remaining accident.

Soon the smoke disappeared to reveal everyone knocked out on the ground except one. It was the intruder itself. He was hidden in the smoke all the time. He was a bit bulky man and had a sort of black suit with his mask on. He was dragging three of his friends to the woods. Izuku was able to recognise them as Ochako, Kaminari and Hagaruke. He was dragging Ochako with his right arm and the others with the other arm.

Izuku gathered all his remaining strength and charged One for All in his right hand's fingers. He flicked it to shoot air at him but missed him by a great distance due to his foggy vision and shaky hands. The intruder noticed this and turned around to look at him. He dropped his grip on Ochako took out a knife. He threw the knife at Izuku and it accurately hit his right hand's palm pinning it to the ground. Izuku didn't felt any pain as the adrenalin was increasing in his body.

" You are different from the records. Maybe next time " the intruder spoke with a muffled tone due to the mask.

He then turned back and dragged the three with him, into the woods. Izuku was trying to move his body but he was completely immobilised. He thought of the only thing he can do right now is report to the teachers quickly.

" UA emergency request, User 1AS6, Status villain " he spoke, for the microphone in the tie to catch his voice.

In just a few minutes Aizawa, All Might, Recovery Girl, Ectoplasm, Present Mic and Hound Dog came to the spot. Without wasting any time Aizawa asked him the direction of the danger. He pointed to the woods. Ectoplasm and Hound Dog immediately rushed to the woods.

Recovery Girl came to tend to his wounds. She noticed that his chest was not moving.

" Midoriya, breath. Move your chest " she tells him.

At first, he was confused but as the adrenalin dropped, he immediately felt the suffocation and passed out.

Some hours later:-

At the nurse's office:-

Izuku opened his eyes. At first, he was plain confused. Then he remembered the accident that occurred. He starts to panic and tries to get up from his bed but recovery girl stops him. 

" Wait, you need to rest. Don't try to get up " she stops him.

" No, they took her away. We need to chase after them " 

" Calm down. The authorities are looking for them and besides you were knocked out for hours. And you need to rest. You are the most injured among the others " she tells him.

At this instant All Might, Aizawa and detective Tsukauchi enters the room. Izuku immediately starts to question him with the others.

" We have bad news" he speaks with disappointment in his voice.

" The intruders have escaped. And unfortunately, they have three of our students. The police are doing their full investigation to track them as soon as we can. Till then for everyone's safety we are putting a full lockdown of the dorms " he informs.

He gets accompanied by several questions from the students of the class. While he and Aizawa were handling the others, Tsukauchi approached Izuku.

" Hello, Midoriya. We met again. We have questioned some of your friends and have an idea what had happened but you were the only one who was conscious till the end. So, I want to ask you what happened after you were attacked. So, shall we start? " he asks and gets a nod from him.

" How many people attacked? " he asked.

" I don't know the numbers due to the smoke but I saw at least one villain. In the smoke, I saw him dragging Uraraka and when the smoke faded he was the only one at the spot. But there must be more villains cause when I tried to attack him someone kicked me from the back " he replied.

" None of the others saw any of the villains, but before they became unconscious most of them were attacked by someone. I think the others must have escaped before the smoke faded away. Now can you tell me about the attacker you saw? " Tsukauchi asked him.

" Yes. I wasn't able to see his face. He had a sort of gas mask over it but he was slightly bigger than a normal people. He was wearing an all black suit that covered his entire body from top to down, like those diving wet suit. Apart from that, he was using knives as a weapon " he described the attacker.

" Another potential member of the League of Villains. All of this seems to point at them " Tsukauchi mutters.

" What do you mean that it's pointing towards them? " Izuku asks.

" When the third years were attacked by the league of villains, they had a new member that had a quirk like this. He had the ability to release thick smoke like you all told. And staying in it caused a sort of paralysis that made you all unconscious. You were lucky that you didn't become unconscious. He too had a mask. But its not just you. Bakugo was attacked with fire behind his back, yet another member of the League of Villains had the ability to attack with fire. And we found a sort of goo over the crime scene. Another member named Twice had the ability to create clones which melted into goo after use " he told him.

" At first we thought that the attack must be from another group of villains as the League of Villains must be recovering from their defeat at the third year camp. But it seems like they had a backup plan to attack your class if they failed at the camp. Any way take rest. A officer will come to take an official detailed record of the whole incident. I know that you must be thinking a lot right now as your friends are captured, but remain calm and strong in all of this. We are gonna find them soon, now it seems that it is the work of the League of Villains " he leaves as an officer report some details to him.

" They didn't try to hide their trail. Instead, there were many fake trails. Some lead to dead ends while some lead to potential exits and some to the road down the hill. We still haven't followed all of them. The problem is all the trails had a similar scent so we can't find which exit they used through Hound Dog " the officer reported.

" It seems they were trying to confuse anyone who would have chased them. Again, it looks like the work of Twice with his clones. Anyway, we need to find their hideout. We need to contact our agents. What are their intentions? " Tsukauchi speaks to the officer.

Izuku wanted to find his friends himself. He wanted to find Ochako.

' Damn it those villains. I want to do something. I need to convince others to try to rescue them on our own. We don't have time. We need to do something quickly. Why do they need her? Try to make a plan first. I need to remain calm ' he thinks.



That is such a sudden twist in the story. And we are progressing further into the story.

This chapter took some time but I just had to think of the smaller details. This is going to get interesting in the next chapters.

Some things to clear.

 The exams of the Class 1 A were conducted and the results were mostly the same, except everyone passes the practical exam.

The third years had a summer camp that happens before the other classes. And they were attacked by the league of villains. In the aftermath Muscular, Moonfish and Magne(instead of mustard(the gas quirk villain)) were arrested. This incident leads to cancelling of summer camp for the other classes.

And Izuku speaking into the tie is a security system for the UA students that was implemented after the USJ attack.

Anyway, I may take your leave(*Insert gas mask effect in voice*)
