Everyone was still laughing save for a few, and Machia wasn't in the mood to see his master being laughed at.

"GRRR, SHUT UP AND WATCH THE SCREEN!!!" His voice roared causing everyone in the room to quiet down. To the point, Koda's whispers were actually audible.

...

"Ooo! Look, look! The title seems very ominous right?" Neijire lightly shoved Tamaki who only groaned.

~O~

The very next day, just as the sun rose, everyone in Tartarus began to wake up slowly. It wasn't until 7 in the morning that they gained their senses completely and realized that the strongest and the most dangerous villains were not there in their respective cells. They all escaped. No, they were released by someone. And by the security footage, it looked like it was their Assistant Chief who was behind all this - and was, in fact, missing from the prison.

"No sh*t." Mitsuki deadpanned.

"Nono, she has a point - can you shut up?" Twice agreed.

"Nah they weren't in their respective cells because the security system suspiciously let them out but they like it there and when they were heading back they forgot which cells were theirs so they just went into a random one... OF COURSE, THEY ESCAPED!!" Hawks yelled at the screen exhausted.

"Hey, I know that's sarcasm, but imagine if some actually did that- pfft!" Mirko fell over laughing at the idea.

"Pfft-" Some of Class 1-B who heard snorted.

--

"I'm scared." Eri sniffled into Midoriya's shirt.

"Don't worry Eri, he cannot hurt you." Midoriya soothes hugging the broken child as tight as he could.

"B-but-" Eri couldn't finish cause Mirio interrupted her with a smile. "But what? You wouldn't need to worry about him. He'll need to get through us first. Besides, capturing Eri is a touchy subject."

"HEY!!" Chaiski yelled at them.

Then they took no time to inform every possible Pro Hero agency and the Police Forces throughout the county about the quiet escape of the villains.

Something really bad was about to happen...

"Really now!" Best Jeanest feigned being surprised.

"Uh duh!!"

"No sh*t," Mitsuki repeated with Masaru nodding next to her.

"The correct term is; No sh*t Sherlock." Fukidashi interrupted.

"Does it look like I care? Well, thanks for telling me."

"Oh really? I didn't notice?"

"Are you trying to make a joke or are you just oblivious? Kero." Tsu asked uninterestedly.

"HAHA! Damn!! You just got roasted by a frog!"

"I'm so excited!!!" Toga squealed.

--

"Wow, it's the amount of slander to the prison guards for me." Momo sighed.

"It's how easy that break out was for me," Kamikiri grumbled.

"It's their obliviousness for me." Koda whispered.

~O~

The news of All For One escaping Tartarus spread like fire and soon every single civilian was left terrified by the thought of who will protect us now? Because in their minds, it was only All Might who could possibly defeat someone like All For One but now that he was retired, who was there who could fight that monstrosity?

"Your mum," Dabi spoke after a long time!

"Based on the fact that they showed the UA civil war then this it clearly shows that Midoriya and his team would defeat the villains," Todoroki explained.

"Oh, that would be hilarious, shroom! Imagine it! Villains vs Villain Team!!" Komori giggled at the thought.

"Imagine All For One being defeated by a bunch of high schoolers, just because Midoriya made a plan," Reiko murmured before shivering. Shinsou sympathized with the Hero Course girl.

"That would be embarrassing." Hagakure replied.

"I'd be speechless if that was the case." All For One's voice reminded them that he wasn't vulnerable to life support anymore.

"EEEP!!"

The Heroes? They themselves didn't know whether or not they were able to take on someone like him. The Police Forces were disappointed that the traitor was one of their Assistant Chiefs whom they all respected deeply. But now, they didn't know who to trust.

"Oh, I kinda feel bad for those heroes.." Hatsume mumbled.

"Huh? Why?" Shinsou asked confused.

"Why? Think about it, you defeated a villain and locked him up presumably forever, wouldn't you feel targeted if they broke out of the toughest prison?"

"Now that you say it like that..." Shinsou trailed off.

... I didn't need to think about that. Midoriya hummed writing in his book.

"You better watch out Endeavour, Stain is going after you then," Sero commented. Causing the bloodsucker to look at the pro confused.

It was utter chaos. The destruction of peace had already begun. And it started from the minds of the people. If they weren't strengthened mentally, then what would come to them when there would be a physical battle.

UA wasn't doing any better either. The Principal was stuck between the Cultural Festival for the other students and the safety of the Hero Course students; most likely Class-1-A because of obvious reasons. In the end, he decided to keep the Cultural Festival under the high-level security of many Pro Heroes and increased the physical and mental training sessions for the Hero Course so they would be prepared in case of what they feared was the worst.

"Yay! We're getting more security!"

"Why is it as soon as the second movie started everyone learned sarcasm?!"

"Mental Training Sessions?" Muscular asked confused.

"Why are you taking the hard route? Just let Midoriya teach the hero course. It's simple." Monoma asked the Principal.

"Yeah, Midoriya is actually a better teacher than most," Jirou added.

A chorus of "Yeah!" soon followed after Jirou's statement causing most of the teachers to blush out of embarrassment.

"Umm..."

But of course, the villains were also preparing to do their best. After all, Shigaraki was pretty sure this time there wouldn't be any problem for them since they would wipe out all the problems beforehand.

"Imagine being defeated by a bunch of kids."

"Grr, who said we were going to be defeated by some measly brats?!"

"Wait, what if the Villain Team actually becomes Villains?" Spinner asked as everyone stared at him with wide eyes.

"That would be a sight to see." Compress replied.

"That would spell doom," Uraraka mumbled.

As for right now, he was done with the elaborate explanation of his plan. And surely, his master was happy to see how much the boy had grown since their last meeting. Furthermore, Shigaraki had a reason for the rest of the villains' escape.

"Oh really?" Recovery Girl sat straighter holding her cane.

Kurogiri was a necessary asset nonetheless, so he had to be with them regardless. Muscular was there to help increase their brute force just in case. Shigaraki despised the idea of having Stain and Chisaki but he had a reason for both of them as well. He initially planned to leave Stain after releasing him because that man could easily just kill a lot of Heroes which meant even fewer problems for them so why not? He didn't care if he got the spotlight right now because soon it would all be about him and his master.

"Wait you guys hate Chisaki?" Mirio asked surprised.

"Hate is likely an understatement." Toga grumbled, clenching the couch.

"He killed big sis Mag! Why wouldn't we hate him?!" Twice argued?

"How ironic," Aiwaza mumbled.

--

"I am proud of your improvement, Tomura." All For One smiled, patting Shigaraki's hair as the latter smiled under the appreciation.

"Well, Master I have been learning!"

Omg, that's so cute!! Midnight squealed, confusing those near her.

Now, coming to Chisaki. Shigaraki hated him way too much to plan something good for him. He had a strong quirk that he couldn't use right now and he didn't have anyone to come help him out in this situation, so Shigaraki thought why not take advantage of that as well? So, he asked his master, All For One, to take Chisaki's quirk. And no doubt it would prove to be very valuable in his collection of quirks. And so, the very next day Chisaki was found quirkless right in front of the main Police Station of Musutafu city.

"..."

Everyone looked back at the handless man in the studio then at the quirkless, handless man on screen.

"..."

"Pffttt-" It started from someone they didn't expect. Using his hands to cover his freckles face, he swore that he wouldn't make fun of quirkless people, knowing how it felt to be quirkless himself. But the situation was so ironic... He couldn't help himself but laugh.

The wholesome laughs and wheezes for air soon became contagious as others in the room started laughing as well.

"LOL!!"

"LMAO!"

"I-I mean, he finally got what he wanted?" Midoriya stuttered before he heard Eri laughing.

"Fantastic!"

"Shigaraki, that was so cold! Good job!!" Dabi snorted.

"It's even dangerous in AFO's hands tho..." All Might whispered worriedly.

"Damn, imagine being handless, thrown in prison, break out of prison, quirkless, then thrown into prison again." Kendo sighed

"Handman is just doubling up the damag-" Hatsume was interrupted by Tetsutetsu.

"I don't need to, they just showed it."

"Should I feel bad?" Shiozaki asked confused.

"Not really, Kirishima replied.

"So, now!" Shigaraki clapped his hands together, keeping his pinkie fingers away, "Onto the next step!"

"Ooh~ What are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do now? Do I get to cut someone?" Toga asked as she sat beside Twice. The whole League, including All For One, was now at a different base and were discussing their next move.

"I just want to see some blood. Like that dream." Toga sighed while Muscular agreed.

"Well, truth to be told," Shigaraki said, not even listening to the blonde girl, "This one's completely your work, Master. But I'm sure that this one will bring you more pleasure than the last or the upcoming ones!"

All For nodded, smiling, as Shigaraki respectfully handed him a file. And to his pleasure, Shigaraki was right. This one was going to bring him way more pleasure.

"I'm just going to guess that it's about Problem Child, Aiwaza said to no one in particular.

"Achoo!" Midoriya sneezed. Squinting his eyes as he bit his tongue by accident.

--

"Pfftt- All For Nodded. 🤣🤣" Manga's head soon showed a laughing emoji that caused the other to laugh as well.

"Oh- oh my I didn't even notice that-"

"Pftt-" All Might snorted while All For One glared.

Not leaving the fact that he was proud of his successor to find out the secret of One For All without his help at all...

~O~

"Hey that One For All thing was mentioned again." Jirou pointed at the screen as something showed.

"One For All. Isn't that just All For One backward?"

"HEY!! Didn't I tell you guys not to think much about it?!" Alisha threatened the guest by shutting off the screen. Those who knew about OFA were more shaken up by the fact that its secret was going to be revealed so easily.

Hey Midoriya-kun! Alisha popped up in his thoughts causing him to drop Eri in fright.

"Oof!"

Wh-whaaaa?! How can you speak in my head? Midoriya panicked as he apologized to Eri. Well, now Eri was sitting with Uraraka.

It's the room, I can communicate telepathically with anyone due to these rooms. Alisha explained.

Oh. But why are you contacting me?

I wanted to know if I can tell the others about OFA?

No... I don't think I'm ready to see how everyone would react once they know I wasn't born with a quirk like them. Besides, there's not only my friends or classmates but Proheroes, Parents and Villains! I don't want to target anyone. Midoriya's mood was sullen as he thought more about it.

Sigh, if that's what you wish.

Alisha clapped her hands stopping those who were theorizing.

"Guys as I told you before OFA is just a universal thing. So you don't need to think much about it."

"Okay..."

In the evening, at the dorms of Class-1-A, the students were hanging out in the Common Area, most of them just came back from training or completing their homework. The television was on and the news reporters on screen were going on about the details of what had happened in the past few days, after the Tartarus break-out incident - yes, that's what they were calling it.

The group of teenagers still paid close attention to the news despite hearing it again and again from their teachers and just in general. They weren't very excited about the whole situation either. All For One escaping was the last thing they wanted to happen.

And Midoriya had a really bad hunch that he was a target, since he was All Might's successor and the current and only holder of One For All. He wouldn't technically say it out loud but those who knew, knew that he was definitely going to be a target.

"..."

"Woah, dude!! You're All Might's successor!?!?"

Stain became intrigued by the greenette even more.

"Midoriya-kun is that true?"

"Woah, Deku-kun that's amazing!!!"

"Wait the narrator could be exaggerating! All Might is my idol but-... I can't lie... Yeah. I'm All Might's successor, but we all are confused on what this One For All could be, right? Is it some type of booster that makes you smarter or something? Why am I the only holder? And why does that make me a target?!" Midoriya muttered as the others sweatdropped.

"So you are his successor but you don't know about this OFA?☆"

"He just said that. Well, this is another version of us. So maybe this Midoriya stole a technique All For One knows called One For All?" Jirou added. As the others nodded. Those who knew about OFA internally sighed and thanked Midoriya for his quick-acting.

"Man, this is horrible," Kirishima slumped himself on the couch, clearly exhausted from the intense training sessions.

"Kiri!!! Tell them about your dream!" Mina yelled.

"Yeah, and to think even Chisaki was involved and now Stain's out too, ribbit," Asui added.

Nobody saw Iida, who also just came back, flinching a little from the mention of Stain being free again.

"Don't worry bro. The doctors said I'll be able to walk as long as I don't overdo it." Tensei tried to reassure his younger brother.

Sadly he doesn't know that wasn't the reason for his nervousness.

"I suggest hiding in an underground bunker for the next four months!!! We can have all the female heroes guarding us too!!!!" Mineta yelled, half-crying.

"Is he always like this?" Shinsou asked.

"What I'm wondering."

"Wtf, Mineta."

"Seriously."

"Unfortunately, yes," Jirou replied.

"I just hope it all ends well and no one gets hurt," Uraraka stated with a worried look.

"Well, what do you want us to do? Paint nails and steal candies?"

"Kid, before this gets even more embarrassing for you. I need you to think, we are Villains from the supposedly strongest Prison. There is going to be bloodshed." Muscular said in the most sympathetic tone but only sound mocking.

"Yeah what he said!!"

"Woah, who knew you can actually get serious."

"..."

"..I guess that was only wishful thinking on my end." Uraraka clenched her fist. As Muscular grinned.

The room was quiet for a while after that before Yaoyorozu and Ojiro came in from the kitchen to inform everyone that dinner was ready.

"Coming!" The teens replied before turning off the television which had switched to an interview with the police and leaving the Common Area.

Bakugou, however, before getting up, saw Midoriya sitting on the far corner of the other couch lost in his thoughts.

"You wanna starve or what, nerd?" Bakugou called him out as the green-haired boy snapped out of his thoughts and quickly stood up.

"Awah, Kacchan!! You do care."

"Shut up!! Stupid Deku!!"

"Hey! Mr. Deku isn't stupid!!"

"Y-Yes, sorry...." He muttered before he joined his classmates as well.

~O~

"...?"

"Are you saying okay you want to starve or??" Sato asked confused.

"Thank you!! I thought I was the only one confused!!"

"No genius." Dabi sighed.

"I'm surrounded by idiots." Kurogiri shook his head.

At around 1 in the morning when everyone was sound asleep in their respective dorm rooms, Midoriya just woke up. The green-haired boy looked around while taking deep breaths.

"Did you also see the same nightmare as Kirishima?" Tamaki asked curiously.

"Wait if that's the case then everything just got interesting!!"

He just saw something he didn't want to.

He just saw something he wished would never come true.

But it was there. The feeling that it's coming.

It's coming...

And this is where it all begins...

"Hey, it's the title!"

"Roll credits huh."

"No Ojirou, that only works with the overall title." Toru interjected with a grin in her voice.
