I low-key kinda just realized that this book is gonna end in two more parts...

~O~

With their last objective, Team Villains might have lost two of their teammates but they still have secured an amazing victory by completing five out of seven objectives. But they were still hyped to complete the last two and win this war with a perfect score.

Now, with determination and hopes, the next group of Team Villains made their way to the sixth objective hidden in one of the many Japanese houses of the artificial city. For this purpose, the group consisted of Shinsou, Yaoyorozu, Shoji and Komori. While at the same time another group sneaked their way to the last and the seventh objective hidden in the Hero Team's base. The second group consisted of Jiro, Monoma, Mineta, Tsuburaba and the leader of the villains; the brains of the game; Izuku Midoriya. The brainwashed Todoroki was with the second group, obeying their orders against his own will.

Following the steps of the first group, we see them in the middle of an artificially build neighborhood filled with civilian-bots as they searched for their objective. Yaoyorozu created a device that traced the electric signatures of the blue cubic objective. The results showed their objective in a house a little far, probably on the roof. That meant that they would have less place to keep themselves hidden from the Heroes. They would have to work and they would be in the Heroes sight. A risky mission as the Heroes could have a clear shot towards them! But that didn't stop them as they moved out. Shoji and Komori down on the roads, watching for the Heroes and taking out civilian-bots while Yaoyorozu leading Shinsou towards the objective from the rooftops.

"How much far is it?" Shinsou asked as he jumped from one roof to another with Yaoyorozu in front of him.

"Just a little more!" The black haired girl replied as she kept chasing the electric signatures. Soon enough they reached the roof of the house which had the objective hidden. But just then, Shoji's voice came, alerting them about the Heroes.

"The Heroes are coming near...!!" Shoji said as he created an extra eye from one of his hands to locate Tokage, Kendo, Tetsutetsu and Hagakure coming towards the Villains.

"Eyes up. Stay sharp." Yaoyorozu said as both her and Shinsou ducked on the roof while Shoji and Komori hid behind a wall with Shoji keeping an eye out for the Heroes approaching.

Meanwhile, in the group of Heroes, Tokage and Hagakure were amazing for spy work. Tokage separated both of her eyes from her body and telepathically moved them around the area to search for the hidden Villains. Unfortunately, she found Shinsou and Yaoyorozu ducking in the roof of a house.

"They're on the roof there!!" Tokage exclaimed to her teammates, pointing at the house while her teammates quickly nodded and rushed towards the house.

"Crap. They found us. Iterator! Venom!" Shinsou exclaimed as he stood up, fixing the black support item on his mouth with Yaoyorozu beside him. The two Villains hiding behind the walls quickly came out ready for a battle.

Shoji created multiple arms with his quirk and prepared to attack as Komori used her mushroom quirk to hide the device near his waist and hers as well, finishing the chances of getting eliminated by the Heroes. Meanwhile with the Heroes, Kendo and Tetsutetsu activated their quirks to attacks while Tokage splitter her entire body apart and scattered off to surround the two Villains on the roof. Hagakure, on the other hand, removed her gloves and shoes and sneaked upto the roof where Yaoyorozu and Shinsou were hiding. Unfortunately, for her, the device that was for elimination couldn't come off and she wasn't completely out of sight.

Shoji fought Tetsutetsu, both of them throwing continuous punches at each other. Both of them had their own advantages and disadvantages. Tetsutetsu's hit was harder as his body was completely transformed into steel. While Shoji took the harder hits, he had more arms to use as one went down and another one came up, making it harder for Tetsutetsu to keep up with him.

While the two boys fought each other non stop, Kendo had her battle with her own classmate; Kinoko Komori. Komori was a heck of a challenge as she could grow mushrooms anywhere she wanted. Kendo was limited to hand to hand combat using her big fists. But then she couldn't do anything when Komori grew a mushroom in her throat, disabling her from breathing. A terrifying and dangerous move. But great for slowing down the opponents.

Kendo fell on her knees grabbing her throat as she coughed, not getting enough oxygen made her feel lightheaded. Her coughs interrupted Tetsutetsu, who without giving a second thought to his battle with Shoji, turned towards the girl.

"Kendo?! You oka—?!!" Tetsutetsu was cut off, result of Shoji using all of his arms at once to punch him in the face and making him fall back a few yards.

While at the same time.

"Yaoyorozu, let me search for the objective and you cover us!" Shinsou said to the girl who nodded in reply and gave him the tracker while she created a metallic shield for herself and the purple haired boy.

Shinsou saw the electric signatures coming from above the window on the second floor of the two-storey house they were standing on. Which meant that the objective was just a little below the roof, on the wall.

"Did you find it?!" Yaoyorozu asked as she felt someone kick the metal shield from the other side.

"Yes! But we'll have to do it li—!" Shinsou stopped as he looked at the limbs floating around and some stronger ones like legs attacking Yaoyorozu who was keeping them back with the shield and a new made metal staff. He also caught a floating gun trying to be aimed at Yaoyorozu. It was Hagakure!

He had to make a quick choice here. Komori and Shoji were too busy fighting as Tetsutetsu and Kendo were back on track. If Yaoyorozu covered him then she would be eliminated easily. And if she didn't cover him, he would fail the war and his transfer exam. Now, either he failed Yaoyorozu and the Team and got in the Hero Course or helped Yaoyorozu and the Team and failed his own exam to finally be on track to be a Pro Hero...

~O~

"What do you think Shinsou is going to do?" Cementoss asked the other Pro Heroes in the room, watching the war.

"Obviously, if he wants to get in the Hero Course, then he'll let her cover him and secure the objective himself." Vlad King said.

"Doesn't sound like a pretty moral thing for a Hero to do. But it does make sense. He isn't going to lose his only chance of getting in the Hero Course now, is he?" Midnight stated while eating popcorn.

"That sounds evil too... But if he doesn't secure the objective, the Villains won't be able to secure the seventh either. What do you say, Aizawa?" Snipe asked.

"As far as I think, he'll make a wise decision and come to the top. It's a Hero's duty to protect his comrades as well as complete the mission. Even if he's playing the Villain, he should take steps which a Hero would in this situation. Team Villains is just a name. The real thing is to save and win. To be loyal and strong. To be a Hero and do your best." Aizawa stated, keeping his tired posture, but his eyes showed all the high hopes he had for the purple haired boy.

~O~

Meanwhile, the second group of Villains reached their destination; the base of the Heroes. They first sent the brainwashed Todoroki inside to make sure that their path is clear. And thankfully it was. The group of Villains silently entered the base of the Heroes. Each one of them had the map of the building recognized. They knew where who was and where was the best place to hide. They knew where was the objective and where the control panel was. It'd be an easy win if the first group secured the sixth objective.

They all, steadily, moved and hid themselves in an empty room, where the Heroes didn't find interesting enough to work in. Jiro, Monoma and Mineta stayed in the room, waiting for the announcement of the sixth objective being secured, while Midoriya, Tsuburaba — both with their masks on — and Todoroki moved towards the control panel, through the vents just in case.

Now, the entire Team was waiting for the sixth objective to be secured.

~O~

Hitoshi Shinsou made his choice.

'I can't fail myself......' He thought.

He took a deep breathe and stepped up, watching Yaoyorozu fight. She was exhausted. He had to. There was no other way for him. He wanted to be a Hero.

"Yaoyorozu!!" He called out for the girl, not using her codename. Yaoyorozu turned around to look at him.

'I can't lose my only chance.... But I can't fail them either!!' He exclaimed mentally. He wasn't going to let down his only friends for his own desires. And that's what a Hero would do.

"Duck and cover yourself!!! Leave it to me!!" Shinsou exclaimed as he used the binding cloth to grab the gun from Hagakure's hand but it got wrapped around her arm. While at the same time, he used the other end of the binding cloth to capture the stronger limbs of Tokage and keep them at one place, stopping them from attacking Yaoyorozu who ducked and used the shield to cover only herself now.

'I have to do it!! For my team!! For my friends!!' He said to himself, mentally.

Shinsou spun and dragged Hagakure away from Yaoyorozu and threw her off the roof, she landed on a tree nearby. While he tried to capture all of the floating limbs of Tokage with the binding cloth in one hand, he pulled out the green card and ran near the edge of the roof, bent down trying to get a view of the objective.

When he saw it, he reached for it. He was dangling off the roof with no free hands to support himself as one hand had the card while the other kept the binding cloth around Tokage's limbs. But he didn't think about the device on his shoulder being totally exposed and Hagakure standing on the tree branch in front of him.

Stretching his arm as much as he could, he secured the sixth objective.

But, at the same time, Hagakure aimed and fired at him.

Shinsou was out of the war.
