Trump Card (Part 8)

The fireball sailed through the air. Aizawa leaped backwards. He watched as his tie caught fire. He grabbed his tie and ripped it off as he jumped to avoid Wake's high powered attack. The Dabi clone smirked. "You can't dodge both of us forever. You're going to slip up and-" The now on fire tie got thrown at Dabi, who quickly brushed it off of himself. Wake chuckled slightly before getting kicked in the face by Aizawa. Dabi raised both hands, but Aizawa locked eyes with him and activated his quirk, stopping Dabi's flames. Aizawa, without looking, grabbed Wake by the collar and threw him at Dabi. The villain rolled forward, meaning the Wake clone was thrown into the wall. "Ow!" As Dabi stood up, Aizawa punched him in the stomach before bringing his elbow down on his upper back. Dabi collapsed. Before Aizawa could bring his foot down on him, he was blasted away by Wake's water. Aizawa hit the other wall, cracking it. He coughed before rolling to avoid Dabi's fire. The hero was quick to his feet, but so were Wake and Dabi. Aizawa clenched his teeth. He got lucky that time. One wrong move and he would be as good as dead.

Chris finally managed to break free from whoever was dragging him through the forest. As the person turned around, Chris shot off a massive shockwave. It hit the guy head on, buying Chris some time to stand up. The other person got up. Chris glared. "Oh. Hello Jason. Nice outfit." The other Jason snarled. "Don't call me that!" The Jason in black and purple fired his own shockwave with his anger. Chris raised his guard, blocking the attack but still getting knocked back. When Chris looked up, his opponent was right in front of him with his punch reared back. Chris stepped backwards, successfully dodging the punch. Then the Jason spun with the punch and kicked Chris. He stumbled backwards, holding his head. He looked up at Jason. "You decided that the clone should be Jason. If that's how you all really feel, then fine. You can have the clone and he can keep my name. I've already picked a new name for myself." He grabbed Chris by the hair and lifted him up. He smiled. "The name is Void." Green energy consumed his arm as he punched Chris a hundred meters away, creating a trail of destruction through the trees.

Spinner ran as fast as he could towards the Class 2A dorms. His mission was to create a distraction for Toga to grab Eri. He was also told that, if possible, to kill some of the students. UA's reputation has taken serious damage when Shoto and Jason were kidnapped, but the death of even a single student on school grounds will be a blow from which UA will never recover. He saw the 2A class as they finished exiting the dorm. Ochako was the first to see him. "Villain!" The class got ready to fight the best they could. Spinner smirked and threw his knife, aiming for Iida. The student's eyes widened. Then Itsuka grew her hand to massive size, forming a wall in between Spinner and the class. The knife sank into her hand, causing her to scream. She then shrank her hand to normal size. The knife fell out and hit the ground. Itsuka held her injured hand before shouting. "Get out of here! I'll hold him off!" The class was hesitant, but Iida shouted. "Do as she says! Go!" The class ran towards the directed evacuation zone. All but Iida, Itsuka, and Kyoko, who had stayed behind. She picked up Spinner's knife and flipped it in the air before expertly catching it. Iida shouted at Kyoko. "You should be with the rest of the class!" "And whatever happened to us stepping up so we can help our friends when they run off to the big fight?! If we run away from a single villain, we won't ever be able to help the others when they inevitably confront the League of Villains once and for all!" Spinner chuckled as he pulled out his giant bundle of blades, holding it with one hand. "'The big fight', huh? It is true that we are expecting Chris, Jason, and the others to provoke one final confrontation with us. However, the League of Villains will emerge victorious, regardless of how many students are thrown at us."

Jason and Kirishima stopped. There was a man in a black trench coat standing in their way. They both glared. Shigaraki had his hands in his pockets, just staring. Jason looked at Kirishima and nodded. The redhead nodded back before running ahead to look for Chris. Jason dropped into a combat stance. Shigaraki took his hands out of his jacket pockets. "I would say that our fated rematch has come at last, but this hardly counts." Jason smirked. "Yea. Not really a rematch when your subordinates can just come out from behind and ambush me." Shigaraki chuckled. "Oh, no, that's not what I meant. I just meant that fighting you doesn't count as beating Jason." Jason lost his smile. "What do you mean?" Shigaraki smiled from underneath his mask. "I thought you were the smart one. How could you possibly not know that you're the clone?"
