Team Work
"You live up to your schools reputation, but you should be more careful children. Otherwise, someone might get hurt." Kurogiri spoke in a polite but intimidating voice.
"You two, get out of the way, right now!" Thirteen called out to Bakugo and Kirishima as she prepared her quirk. However, before she could start, the whole class was surrounded by mist. Only a few managed to get out in time before the mist formed a dome that trapped the rest of the class inside.
The ones that were inside the mist were separated into groups and sent to different areas of the building. Deku fell towards the water in the shipwreck zone, calmly waiting for his impact with the water.
As Deku hit the water, he started to fall deep, but he quickly began swimming backup. Before he could get above the water, a human-shark villain approached him.
Here we go. Deku thought as he prepared himself for an attack. Deku wasn't sure how he should act, since he had never been underwater with his quirk, and that's what caused the villain to get so close. Luckily, Tsu kicked the villain in the side of the head before he could reach Deku.
"Hey, Midoriya!" She used her tongue to grab onto him as she used the villains head as the grounding to her jump. They all eventually arrived safely on the boat. Tsu, Midoriya and Mineta.
"Thanks, Tsu." Deku showed his gratitude as Tsu climbed up the side of the boat. Once she got up and stood on the same level as Deku, she spoke her thoughts.
"This is turning out to be a terrible day of class." Deku couldn't agree more, so he just chuckled.
"Tell me about it. It seems like they really have everything planned out, and they intent to take down All Might." Deku knew their plans, seeing as he was a part of it, but he had to act like he had no idea what was happening, and that just made it more fun for him.
"Hey! Wait a second!" Mineta finally spoke up, "It's not like they can really kill All Might! Once he shows up, he'll pound these villains until there's nothing left!" Mineta put a lot of hope into All Might as he punched the air.
"Think about it though, if the villains spent so much time planning this attack, then they probably figured out how a way to kill him." Tsu began analyzing the situation, then turned her attention to Mineta, "And didn't you hear what that smoke guy said? Maybe we should be more worried about not getting tortured to death."
Deku noticed that Mineta was getting more and more worried as Tsu went into further detail. He thought about just letting Mineta panic, but decided not to as it would only slow him down.
"Okay, let's stop it there and figure out how to get out of here." Tsu was interrupted by Deku, and Mineta began to calm down when he saw Deku with a joyful smile on his face, "By the looks of it, these villains are amateur seeing how that shark guy was easily attacked." Whilst Deku was looking back on what had happened, more villains appeared from the water.
"You bastards! I'll enjoy eating you!" That was the same voice of the shark villain from before. Those words were what finally tipped Mineta over the edge.
"Bad guys!" Mineta shouted, after screaming in pure fear. Deku sighed and picked him up by one of the purple balls on his head, looking him in the eye.
"You need to calm down. I'll think of a plan but I can't hear myself when you're screaming!" Deku for once was being serious, he couldn't bear having Mineta being so loud, so he had to make is point clear. Mineta closed his mouth shut as much as possible and nodded. Deku put Mineta back onto the ground and pointed out the next bit of information.
"It seems like they don't know what our quirks are, otherwise they wouldn't have sent Tsu to the Shipwreck area." Deku went into deep thought before a light bulb could almost be seen above his head, "I have an idea!"
--------------------
"Class rep, I've got a job for you." Thirteen was just about to give orders, but before she could carry on, Iida told her the news.
"Sorry, but our class representative isn't here. Midoriya was one of the people that were scattered." Thirteen wasn't able to see who had been scattered around as she had her focus on Kurogiri and making sure he doesn't attack.
"Do you have any idea where he is?" Thirteen almost sounded desperate, but she kept her stress under control.
"I'm not sure, but I know Midoriya will make his way here eventually." Iida was confidant in Deku. After seeing Deku think of well thought out plans and great attacks on many occasions, he knew that Deku would be able to find his way back on top of the stairs. There was a moment of tense silence until Iida heard a loud sound from behind.
Iida turned around to notice that the shipwreck zone was falling in on itself and becoming a whirlpool. He was confused at first, but then he noticed Deku flying in the air, in a position that suggested Deku was the reasoning behind the events he saw before him.
"There he is!" Iida called out to Thirteen with a proud smile on his face. Iida was happy to have Deku as the class representative.
When Deku, Tsu and Mineta landed, Deku looked around to see how Aizawa was doing but then looked up and noticed Iida. Iida waved his arms to Deku, and Deku waved back. It was time for them to regroup.
--------------------
"Okay, so we have to get back up there." Deku turned to Tsu and Mineta to go over his plan that was still a work in progress, "Tsu, you help me with the combat." His plan was to fight his way through to Thirteen and the others.
Tsu was hesitant, she didn't know if she would be able to fight the villains, but when she looked Deku in the eyes at noticed his confidence, she knew she had a chance.
"Got it!" Were her words to confirm that she would follow through with the plan. Deku looked over at Mineta, not sure what he would be useful at, but an idea came to him.
"Mineta, could you use your quirk to make sure the villains can't get away?" Deku knew how Mineta's quirk worked, so he thought this would be the best way to use it. Mineta nodded with a serious expression, this let Deku know that he was going to try his best.
Deku, Tsu and Mineta began walking to the stairs. Deku was hoping to come across a villain to get into a fight and have some fun, but he knew that Tsu and Mineta didn't.
Just as they arrived at the bottom of the stairs, two villains called out to them from behind.
"Well, well, well. Look what we have here." It was a voice of a man that spoke in a creepy tone. Deku looked back to reveal a short man with a head double the size of the average human, and next to him was a woman with the arms of a gorilla.
"Did you really think you could just walk past us?" The woman sounded crazy, that was what caught Deku's attention. The man seemed like he wouldn't be any fun, but the woman was desperate for a fight.
Deku chuckled to himself, Tsu and Mineta stood behind him, nervous. Mineta was shaking, but Tsu was on guard and ready to fight. A psychotic smile came over Deku.
"You guys just go up, I'll deal with these two myself." They were both confused, but when Deku looked back at them, they knew it was the best option.
Iida and Uraraka was looking down at Deku and waited for Tsu and Mineta to get back up the stairs. Once they reached the half way point, Deku powered up his quirk all over his body, with the green electricity glowing around him.
"Let's get this over with." The man spoke first and ran towards Deku. Once he got close, the man jumped up in the air, unfortunately for him, he wasn't the one Deku wanted to fight. Before the man could land his attack on Deku, Deku back handed the man in the face and sent him far into the distance.
The woman just watched as Deku defeated the villain with ease. She smirked as she came to a realization.
"So you're the one Tomaru told us about? It's a pleasure to meet you." Tomaru had told each villain about how Deku was their inside guy in the plan, and that he was powerful. However, that was what caused some of the villains to want to fight Deku one their own to try and beat him after all the praise he had received.
"Maybe." Deku said jokingly, "Now let's fight." Deku got into a starting position as the woman ran towards him, preparing a right hook as she got closer.
She tried to punch Deku, but he blocked it with his upper arm and counter attacked with a punch in the center of her chest. Not a lot of power was put in that punch, keeping the woman on the ground. But then Deku went for a quirk round of attacks: Kick in the right torso, a jump to kick in the left side of the face, dropping down and kicking her in the left torso with the back of his right leg. Attack after attack, but the woman still held her ground.
They paused for a moment, and Deku let the woman catch her breath.
"You better not be going easy one me." She sounded irritated, but she was also having fun. Deku as well was having fun, but he was going easy on her. He smirked and gave his reply.
"Maybe." Showing his joyful side to add to the injury, Deku turned her question into an insult. The woman went in for one more attack, but Deku put a lot of power into his arm and fist to punch her in the face and send her further than he sent the man from before. With the battle ending, Deku walked up the stairs.
--------------------
"Formidable fight, Midoriya." Iida was the first one to talk, congratulating Deku on his victory in the boring fight.
"Deku!" Uraraka ran over to Deku with her hand in the air. Deku actually thought it was cute and blushed a little. Once Uraraka stood in front of Deku, they gave each other a high five, which made Deku show a warm smile.
"Whoa, Deku! I've never seen that before!" Uraraka was surprised to see such a wholesome smile on Deku, and Deku covered his mouth in response. Iida didn't want to stop such a nice moment between the two, but he had to give Deku the information.
"Midoriya, Thirteen wishes to see you." Deku put his hand that as covering his mouth to the side and looked over at Thirteen. He then walked over and stood next to her.
"So he's still here..." Deku had to pretend like he was taking everything seriously, so his voice sounded calm and serious. Thirteen looked over at Deku for a second before looking back at Kurogiri.
"So, you're the class rep?" Asked Thirteen.
"Yep, that's me!" Deku couldn't help but act cute when introducing himself as class rep as he couldn't hide his excitement towards being the class representative.
"I have a job for you. I need you to go pass this villains and head towards the main building for back-up!" The orders were clear, but Deku didn't want to be the ones to follow them. He looked back at Iida then turned to Thirteen.
"Even though I am the fastest in the class, I am also one of the best in combat." Deku explained why he would not follow the orders before he declined them, "It is for this reason that I say Iida is best fitted for this job. Not only is he the second fastest, but I'm sure he'll be able to explain our situation in the best way possible."
Iida was shocked at Deku's praise, and felt honored to receive such a compliment.
"Are you sure?" Iida asked out of doubt of his own capabilities, and so Deku walked up to him and put his hands on Iida's shoulders.
"Trust me, you are the one who is best for this. I have faith in you." Deku almost laughed at his own words as he didn't mean a single word. Deku just wanted to fight, so he put the responsibility on another student in order to draw All Might over to the class.
Iida was on the verge of tears, but he nodded and accept the challenge.
