JOKER HQ/IZUKU POV

I wake up seeing the suns early rays filtering through the boarded windows of the factory, damn last night was exhausting. I get up and get dressed for some quirk training (so just my shorts) Before I leave my newly furbished bedroom I turn around and look back at the best and the sheet clad form of Toga. It's been about two weeks since Toga ended up joining my Chaotic Crusade and during that time we may or may have not started a physical relationship with each other. In all honesty I can tell she loves me but with me being the emotionally stunted orphan villain I am, I don't really know how I feel about her, all I know is that whenever her face has that manic smile and blood dripping off her fangs as she cleans up her knives I get this warm tingly feeling in my chest, weird right? Anyway back to my training. I recently had a breakthrough with my quirk, I realised that if I could heat up some of my gases like my fire into lightning/plasma I could potentially do the opposite and make my gases exude freezing temperature. It turned out I could and ended up freezing the hobo out on the corner into solid ice by accident, oops. On a related on note due to the USJ incident Nedzu and co. decide that they were going to move up the spots festival date to the coming Friday, giving me a solid six days to come up with a new plan. One to debut my latest weapon, the 'Harley Quinn' while also embarrassing all of UA and the Hero Society as a whole after an up and coming villain attacked Japan's 'most secured' event. The only other thing that really happened was when yours truly became an S ranked villain! For those of you who don't know how villain ranking work here is a quick run through:

Rank D: Criminals that are charged with petty theft or assault under the influence of substances

Rank C: Criminals that are charged with theft and robbery or assault/aggravated assault

Rank B: Criminals that are charged with armed theft or manslaughter/murder or property damage

Rank A: Villains that are charged with rape, multiple murders (10-50), abduction and torturing

Rank S: Villains that are charged with mass murder (50+), murder of highly influential people or top 50 heroes

Rank SS: Villains that are charged of Genocide, Terror Attacks and a kill count higher than 4000

Rank SSS: Villains that are deemed a threat to society itself and a danger to all inhabitants of Earth

It is incredibly hard for a villain to me ranked S or higher and for a villain to debut and a month later be given the S rank so soon would be the equivalent of a hero fresh out of UA being added to the Top 10 Heroes just like that. My real inspirations are SSS ranked villains, I did some research and have learned there were only two people labelled as such a threat. The first one was illegible due to the file and most if not all information being redacted except for the file name: AFO. The other was the Villain Destro. A man who in the age where the quirkless out weighed the quirked, he fought the Status Quo that were creating laws restricting the usage of quirks and due to his radical thinking and fanatic followers he posed a threat to the constructs of society, and apparently he has the quirk to back it up but it was lost to history. I continued training for another three hours when I sat down for a break, my scarred form gleaming with marks and sweat shivered as I felt the lithe nude form of Toga on my back while her arms come over my shoulder and rest on my chest.

"Izu, you can't just leave a maiden in bed like that and leave! If we weren't working together I would think that this was a one night stand." She pouted in the most adorable way I have ever seen and decided to make it up to her as I picked her up and carried her back to the bedroom.

UA SPORTS FESTIVAL/IZUKU POV

Well hey guys right now I am contemplating on throwing away all my hard work of maintaining my cover as a student or proceed to murder this FUCKING INSOMINAC OF A ********! Wooh deep breaths Izuku, deep breaths. How about a quick recap on the events that led to this sudden homicidal urge. First was the fact that a fellow classmate directly declared war on me after every other course and class did as well, then I had to give the Athletes Oath about how we all should give it our all blah blah blah, than decided to play it easy in the events but during the Obstacle Race used a bit too much power and set a new UA record for the fastest time to complete the event, than one the Cavalry Battles with my 10,000,000 point headband and now I have the first match of the one on one battle when Brain Wash over here try to bait me by commenting on my appearance, hence the urge to kill, instead I just shot him out of the ring with a epically shocking Breath Bolt earning a victory by both KO and ring out, most of the other round 1 matches weren't anything really special except for when Flex Tape was instantly frozen by Todoroki which incidentally gave me a light bulb moment. When the first round intermission rolled along Todoroki told me he needed to talk to me, probably gonna tell me some anime character sob story or some shit like that.

SHOTO POV

I dragged Yumoa away and told him about Quirk Marriages and my upbringing and how I got my scar and during the whole explanation hist stoic looking expression never faltered, is this how it feels to try and talk to me? One thing I wasn't expecting was when I finished regaling my tragic past was for him to nod and say 'Though as much.' Literally what the actual fuck is this kid. Well guess it doesn't matter cause no matter what, I'm gonna win the Sports Festival with my Ice alone. In fact I refuse to even heat myself with my heat, I vow so on my Mother's Life!

TEN MINUTES LATER ROUND 2 BATTLE 1/SHOTO POV

I knew that out of all of the possible combatants to verse the most difficult would be Yumoa, he has such a versatile quirk and a fighting form instilled in his standing posture. Speaking of his quirk I need to take him down hard and fast before he can release too much of that knock out gas he used on Bakugo during our Heroics Class.

"Start!" I hear Midnight's voice ring out as I prepare to release a giant iceberg to capture Yumoa but as I move my body to do so I find my movements rigid and restricted until in a few seconds I cannot move which seemed to be picked up by Midnight declaring Yumoa's victory due to my immobilisation. I gaze at my own body and find myself frozen in place, I look up to see Yumoa and notice that his breaths were visible as if the temperature was cold out. My body starts tingling with heat as I subconsciously start to thaw myself while still wondering what the fuck just happened.

AWARD CEREMONY/AIZAWA POV

Mic and I watch from the commentary box as All might places the medal for third on Todoroki, second on a restrained Bakugo and a first placed one on the ever stoic Yumoa when the speakers in the stadium start erupting with the melody of my nightmares, that ever haunting cackle the unmistakeable laugh of The Joker. The screens on the walls light up with the image of two figures one masculine clad in green and purple and one feminine dressed in a red and black jester outfit. The laughter begins to subside and is replaced by the ominous voice of the S Ranked Villain.

"Hello UA Sports Festival, it is me The Joker and my new partner in crime Harley Quinn!" The newly introduced Harley begins to wave as Joker continued on. "Firstly I would like to thank everyone for this achievement, I mean it isn't every day where you become SS Ranked isn't that right Director." The camera turns around to a figure bloodied and bound to a chair with a gag shoved in his mouth but even in his ragged form it was unmistakably The Director of the Hero Association. The Joker and Harley appear next to The Director as Joker crouches down and continues his monologuing.

"Alright, say hello to all the kids at home Mr Director," Joker instructed but only got a muffled 'hmph' in return. He looks back towards the camera. "You know it was easier than I imagined abducting the Director here, especially when most if not all Top 10 heroes as well as Hero Association Security teams are all at UA trying to comfort everyone after that nasty USJ slip up. But back to the point," a small map appears in the corner of the map with a red dot pointing out was seems to be a fair grounds on it," Ya see us three are getting nice and acquainted at these coordinates, you heroes have 20 minutes to get here and rescue him! Tick Toc, times a wasting HEROES!" He all but sneered the last word but it didn't matter since All Might had already taken off with Hawks by his side heading for the location.

FETE GROUNDS/ALL MIGHT POV

With in a few minutes, Hawks and I arrive at the location as we explore the area, attempting to find The Director. My thoughts drift to The Joker as I search. The man must be mentally unstable that's for certain but his cunning and intelligence gives off an aura of confidence, as if he were mocking me and saying he was always two steps ahead and chuck in a small group of devoted unstable fanatics that claim to be fans of this madman than we have a SSS in the making. I find myself entering the Hall of mirrors when I notice a red line staining the mirrors, I follow the line to a room surrounded in mirrors all reflecting the same gruesome scene laying in the middle of the room. The Director with an open abdomen with his entrails lying on the floor spelling out 'GOT YA', a smile etched out on his face, his finger and toe nails littered around the room and a steel playing card stabbed into The Director's eye, on closer inspection I found it to be a Joker Card.
