Back at the city

S: "I can't see him anywhere." With the radio frequency shield down, they were now using their own communication devices to talk to each other.

D:"Keep looking; he should be around."

S: "He is not making a living in the sewers, is he?"

D:"I mean, if someone could, it's Anderson; he has that quirk of being able to turn anything into anything else. He can make ice cream out of turds."

S: "Fucking gross." She looked a bit more flying above the sky before noticing me running around with 'Tokoyami' on my back. "Never mind; I see him."

D:"You do?"

S: "Do you see that red building with a long crane next to it?"

D:"I do."

S: "Head there. I will dive him right now."

D:"Go for it." He turned off the radio, looking at Gross, who put on his mask again. "So she is heading for a trap."

G: "How do you know?"

D:"Anderson has the ability to literally dig underground and make structures, and he is just running in the middle of the street in plain sight?"

G: "Makes sense. Why didn't you warn her?"

D:"BECAUSE I AM CURIOUS?! Aren't you interested on see what he has planned out? I want to see what he is planning. I just wonder if it's going to be exciting." He shot off an air blast heading the same way as I was, with Gross following behind.

The plan

I was running with a big weight on my back but I didn't care about that, I just hoped to catch her attention on time, I had been running for the last 2 minutes around the same block hoping to be caught by someone, specially the girl that was supposed to be able to fly up in the air and recon the whole place, but it was matter of time till she catch me, I noticed her up in the air diving me from behind, ready to hit me like before but this time, I had a plan for once.

S: "HEY ANDERSON! I THINK YOU LOST THIS." She dashed towards me at an incredibly fast speed, but as fast as she was, she couldn't react fast. I quickly toss 'Tokoyami' at her; he was wrapped around a blanket, but as I tossed it at her, she noticed just a bunch of dark balloons filled with ink inside of it, splashing her body and face, blinding her for a second as I barely dodged her. "THE FUCK?!"

J: "NOW!" I used my quirk to make a pillar launching me up in the air so I could attack her, but not only me, but also the other two buildings, and my master and Sato jumped down to strike her. I punched her right in the gut with a modified arm as I turned it into stone, and Sato punched her down back to me. I replied with another punch as we were then quickly jumping her, all three of us hitting her as fast and hard as we could. I was going all out with my extremely fortified body, and my master finished it off with a kick, shooting her towards an unmade building and making her hit the wall. "... So you guys didn't hold back, right?"

r: Sato looked to me a bit nervous. "I honestly didn't want to hurt her."

Y: "I personally didn't want to hurt her badly either."

J: "Please tell me you are joking" I didn't notice Gross and Draw coming close until it was too late "Nevermind just go, keep her busy! Stick to the plan! And do not go easy on her; that woman is tougher than I am." Both Yoshi and Sato jumped to continue attacking her as the other two were close next to me.

D:"You're looking good, Jack! I love the costume."

J: "Thanks, my girlfriend made it for me."

D:"Dawwwg, that's cute. You are making me jelly here, so, uh, what's your plan here, facing the two of us alone?"

J: "My plan? Listen to me. A fight isn’t won by strength alone. Steel breaks. Magic fades. But the will, the will to live, is stubborn. It endures."

D:"What? What in the actual fuck are you saying?"

J: "When fear strikes your heart, that void is filled with the emotion and feelings of your friends, your partners, those you care about, and those who fought before you, the sensation of people being able to keep living in this world without fear."

D:"No seriously, I don't understand this. Is this emotional? What the fuck are you saying? Does this have to do with anything? Are you trying to say you have the power of friendship?"

J: "Emotions and, and the animals of earth—and the water—all this aaaand uuuh." Jack was squinting, trying to figure out something...

D:"Are you having a stroke?"

J: "OH! IT'S THE BLACK ONE, THE FULL BLACK ONE!"

D: "What?!" Gross was suddenly wrapped by some sort of grappling around him; it was Uraraka's wrists that wrapped around Gross' body, her quirk making him float before he was pulled back in an instant and thrown into the air.

M: "NOW!" Tsuyu used her tongue to throw multiple small explosives at Gross as he tried to dodge them by floating with his quirk, and thanks to Uraraka's float, he was able to fly easier right before she released him and made him lose grip on his flying, stumbling and slowly descending to the ground as a cloud of disgusting smoke lingered in the air.

D:"OOOOH DIVIDE AND—" I quickly went forward to kick him, but he blocked me with much more ease.

J: "Eyes on me, douchebro! I am fighting you!"

D:"YEAH, OKAY!" He aimed his hand at me as an extremely bright light filled the street, and I knew he was going to blow me away.

J: "Iregretthisalready." Almost on cue an extremely large bright explosion was heard, a beam of light shooting me up in the air as I was thrown high above the buildings, my body resistant enough to take it. Draw didn't stay back either; almost in that same instant he was already up in the air chasing me as well.

D:"Want to know what's the best part of facing you, Jack?!" He was finally close to me as he managed the air blasts perfectly to reach me. "That leaving aside Croc and Trivia, you are the only one back home that I can hit, like this." Both hands clapped as he brought them together and slammed me down with a double hammerfist, both thumbs sticking out as he did to gain momentum as he used his quirk to actually throw me with much more strength than before, he was powerful enough to blast me away and send me to the outsides of town into the forest, the sky turning orange as he was falling shooting down multiple beams of light at me, I was going to have a bad time.

Gross vs Momo, Tsuyu, and Ochaco.

G: The streets were filled with gas as he kept shooting it in multiple directions. Tsuyu and Ochaco easily dodged it as they took height, but on doing so, they weren't able to close the gap. Ochaco thought of using her awakened quirk to make him float, but it won't do anything but aid him. The advantage they had right now was that he couldn't fly and shoot his gas in a wanted direction without changing his own direction. It's better to keep him on the ground and not make others float alongside him.

O:"I am not sure if this was the best for us to fight."

T: "Jack said he was currently weaker than the other two; he is probably trying to avoid us getting hurt, Kero." Tsuyu grabbed some of the rubble around and threw it towards the ground where Gross should be; hidden by the cloud, it was hard. Momo, on the other hand, was working on something else, creating multiple smokebombs of her own, baking soda, vinegar, and charcoal bombs, harmless, of course, but they would mess with Gross's quirk enough for the other two to make an attack. "Ochaco!"

O:"Yeah!" Ochaco touches debris, herself, and Tsuyu as all of it floats. Tsuyu's tongue extends to strike all pieces of debris with as much strength as she can, the debris falling down hard on the ground, piercing through the smoke but not hitting anything, as Gross seemingly was gone. Suddenly the air around it and the clouds started to disappear, being absorbed inside the sewer where Gross was taking shelter, it seems.

G: The manhole was blown out before he came out floating, staying in the air for a moment; he seemed to be shaking for a second until. ["Gros nuage"] He blew up, quite literally, smoke pouring out of every pore of his body. The disgusting cloud approached them at high speed; he didn't aim at them, he aimed at everything. It spread rapidly down, up, left, and right, in every single direction. The whole street, buildings, and alleys were filled—an ultimate move proper for someone who wants to end an army.

M: "Look out!" Momo shot a cannon towards the direction of Tsuyu and Ochaco, who were still floating. The large cloud bombs of Momo were also releasing their own mixture of gases that clashed against Gross. "Your quirk is gas- and smell-based; I assume that being in a place where there is a lot of wind or other types of chemicals must be troublesome for you, right?"

G: ["Tu me casses les pieds"]

M: ["Je suis désolée, mais je dois"] Gross was stunned for a moment as he heard her speaking French back; it was nice for someone to understand him for once.

Sky Witch vs. Yoshi, Sato, and Mina

R: "Are you sure that we are supposed to fight him?" They were jumping from one building to another chasing after her

Y: "I don't understand it well but keep pushing her to that building my quirk should affect her body at any moment but the problem is if whether her quirk is a mental one or a physical one"

R: "HERE SHE COMES!"

S: She dived down strong towards Sato and Toshi, hitting them both with a lariat, making them drop to the ground but survive such a harsh fall. "You two are, though, aren't you?"

Y: "I guess that's why... But I am patient; we just need to gain time for her, don't we?" Mina, finally seeing an opening, shot her acid towards the Sky Witch, surprising her from behind, but as soon as the acid struck, she accelerated forward to a high speed, half the acid falling down. "Damn it!"

S: "DAMN IT!" She felt her skin sizzling and burning; she knew that wasn't a normal thing. Too highly corrosive for her body."

A: "Sorry about that! I didn't want to burn you more than needed."

Y: "I assume you couldn't have shot it faster and more straightforwardly? You spread it all over the place."

A: "You are supposed to say thanks for having my back, you know."

Y: "You need to be more creative on how to shoot your quirk; regardless, my quirk already kicked in."

S: She didn't look in good shape; half her body went limp. "WHaahaua—" She couldn't even use words properly, but she was still floating in the air.

Y: "I call it chi, its a similar version of blocking pressure points like some monks do, its not really a real thing but with me, that's super real, she should be paralyzed, but since she is still floating that means her quirk is mental not physical."

R: "So what do we do?"

Y: "We protect Mina. Mina, you drop her to the ground. You already saw that your quirk barely burns her; she truly is resistant, so don't hold back much."

A: "I would rather hold back a little, I actually don't want to burn her more than necessary"

S: She suddenly drop to the ground leaning against a wall, a container full of water being lifted off the ground and thrown at them.

Y: "Sato!"

R: "ON IT!" Both Yoshi and Sato struck the water tank, breaking it away in pieces, but as the water cleared, the witch had gone away.

A: "Huh?" The sonic boom heard as Mina looked up at the girl diving down ready to strike her, she put up her acid armor as Sky quickly decided to deflect, the shockwave from her speed sending her back for a moment.

S: "So your plan is going to simply burn me till I fall?"

A: "Your plan so far has been to stay far away and attack; why not come down here?"

S: "Fair enough." She moved up, looking left to Gross having his own fight and then right, seeing Draw exploding everything everywhere trying to get me. "I don't need to fight you after all; I just need to win time till one of them is done."

A: "M-maybe communicate that to Jack?"

Y: "Jack, how are you doing?"

Jack vs. Draw

J: "BAD BAD BAD BAD!" I yelled at the radio as I was running away for dear life, hiding between trees and rocks, avoiding every single shot coming from Draw. I wasn't even facing him, just dodging and blocking. In terms of raw power, if I consider my defense a 10, his offense would be an 80.

D:"You are making my learning boring, Jack! Or should I start calling you Anderson? I am being quite polite here! HELP ME LEARN. Show me what you have gotten from your month here at the U.A." He slammed the ground, his hands inside, under the dirt before a large explosion of dirt was seen; it was like an earthquake splitting the earth in two as everything exploded and was launched in the air. My radio broke in that instant, as it couldn't withstand the explosion. At least I had my plan B.

J: "S-setsuna!" A small eye and ear poked out of my pocket. "Stay with me and keep communicating to everyone else. Are they done fighting?" Setsuna's eyes stood still before it moved left and right none of them have defeated their own? Sky Witch, I get it, but Gross was fairly weaker and tired... He must be stalling then. "I need to move this to the city." Using the rubble in the air, I pushed myself down to the ground. I am tired of being **** in the air just so I cannot transform the things around me. Setsuna's eye and ear joined me as I went down to the ground, lifting a platform and moving towards the city, but then a loud air exhaust—I heard Draw shooting itself towards me. "Come on! GIVE ME FIVE MINUTES!"

D:"Not even a second! FIGHT ME ALREADY!" He aimed his hand at me, and an extremely loud boom was heard. He used a special move; pressurized air shot all at once. It was like taking a shotgun to the body. He sent me flying back once more, but at least closer to the city.

J: "What is going on? Are they having trouble beating theirs?" Setsuna's eyes nodded at me. I would ask her to help me defeat one of them, but currently her body was carrying away Tokoyami out of the city while other pieces of her searched for the 'hostages.' "Setsuna, I will be honest and tell the others, Draw is playing with me. The moment he gets bored, I won't last longer than a minute. I am not joking when I say he is on another level. " He shot himself sliding towards me; soon enough, he was back on my face. I couldn't react to defend, so I attacked, my arm turning metallic and sharp like a sword as I struck his own hand.

D:"GOOD! WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO AVOID ME?!"

J: "Why are you so battle crazed?! I knew you were intense when it came to fights, but this is a level of psycho!" He pushed me down to the ground, stopping me as he stood on top of me.

D:"Why?! B-because..." He had that sad look on his face again. "What would you know... You gave your number four spot, Anderson; you don't understand us anymore. You were in the top 5, and the first year you were great, but now you are just... You, number 7, and everything... At this rate you will be out of the academy." He looked away. "I am getting tired. Tell me, that kid, Dynamight, Shoto... Did they come here?"

J: I was sweating; no matter my answer, my time was up. "Why?"

D:"Easy Jack." His hands turned bright again. "I want to fight them." The earth sprout extremely sharp spikes, hoping to pierce him, but he just blocks them away with his hands, the more resistant part of his body. I took the chance to get up and push him away, turning my legs into something similar to a bunny and running away on all fours like an animal, wanting to gain some speed before going back to sliding on the platform.

J: "Setsuna, this isn't working. Change of plans. Tell them I need them to gather at construction zone Z. There isn't much there, but it will work well. I have a plan, but I'm not sure if this will work. If they keep stalling, Draw will go to one of their groups, and Draw will beat them by himself." I moved between buildings so Draw wouldn't easily shoot me, and it was **** to chase me and face me at close range. "I think I have a new idea; perhaps dividing them wasn't the best move. So this time, I need to get them together. I don't need Sky Witch there, but it would work better with her there... But Gross is a must; he needs it! To be there, communicate that to everyone." Her eye nodded as her mouth floated quickly towards Tsuyu's group first before going to my masters. "I will tell you the rest once you are done."

D:"Stop avoiding me! COME FACE ME LIKE A MAN!" Troublesome, too troublesome.

The rest...

Y: "We are here?! Where are the others?" Yoshi said as he took another hit by the witch, able to paralyze her lung in the process but not enough to bring her down.

A: "We need to give them some time."

R: "To the left!" A large cloud, bright blue approached their direction, Ochaco and Momo barely escaping it with help of Tsuyu seems like they were dragging Gross around thanks to Ochaco's equipment and Momo's creations of ropes and chains, Momo in charge that the smoke wouldn't hit them using her quirk and shielding them away.

Y: "Wait, wait, wait! Jack should be the one here! What do we do without him?!" An explosion was seen in the distance as I was shot up in the air. Landing next to a building completely bruised up and battered, I made my way to the meeting point noticing everyone there, including Sky who was holding her stomach due to the pain, yeah I get her.

J: "Everyone here? That's good, amen. Now we need to get this bitch down here. That's easy, but Gross is the hard part. You three go help with getting Gross, and for Draw, I will deal with him. Quickly leave; please let me handle this." A person was seen flying in the air and landing nearby as everyone scatter away to help the rest, I had to focus on making a structure, but Draw wasn't going to give me a second, it was time to pull out my secret weapon.

D:He started to shoot at me air blast after air blast, still worried of hitting buildings, but every shot he took at me was like actual gunshots. "Stop hiding Jack, its boring."

J: "Wait, timeout!" I lifted my hands, confusing him. Draw might be strong, powerful, and a bit of a fight freak right now, but he is also a bit of a dumbass like myself.

D: "Timeout?! You cannot ask for a timeout."

J: "Are you sure? I kind of did just now" I stared at the witch who got better; she went down for me before noticing Draw just standing there, staring at the two of us.

S: "What in the hell are you doing?! Aren't you supposed to be fighting"

D:"He is asking for a timeout."

S: "AND YOU ARE GIVING HIM ONE BECAUSE?!"

D:"I AM FUCKING NOT GIVING HER ONE WOMAN! I AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY HE ASKED."

S: "HUH?!?!" She went down to fight me; tired of diving down on me, she went for an actual hand-to-hand fight. It doesn't matter the distance or how far she is when punching; her speeds carry the same speed as her body. If she hits like a truck 100 miles away, she can also hit equally as hard 0 inches away. She punched me with everything she had—kicking, flips, hammer fists, everything she had—as all I did was shield myself away. Draw was unable to shoot at me as she continued her flurry of blows, just aiming with his finger. This was the perfect situation for me.

J: I waited until I saw the large shadow looming over us, darkening the whole place. Gross had arrived; I saw both Yoshi and Sato grabbing the rope where he was wrapped around and quickly threw him down where we were.

S: "Fuck!"

G: Gross blasted himself upwards to avoid falling, but as he did, a large metallic net courtesy of Momo trapped him and dragged him down to where we were; it was time for something more special than just pillars and rocks being thrown at them.

J: I took a deep breath as a large rectangular structure grew around me to shield me from Gross, but most importantly, the ground sprouted 4 different walls, trapping all three, Sky, Gross, and Draw, inside a pyramid that I had formed with me in the middle, the cloud of smoke of Gross filling the place at first.

D: "GROSS ABOSRB IT QUICKLY!" He used his quirk to blast away the smoke from him and Sky, Gross who was still trapped under the net struggled but still did as asked, taking in most of the smoke, Sky wondered if she should hit me but waited for the smoke to go away in case she ends up inhaling some of it. "I will open an exit in a moment." He stopped shooting the compressed air; most of the gas had gone away, but there was some strange smell in the air remaining.

S: Sky, on the other hand, didn't wait a second longer; she saw her chance to attack me, and she did so, striking the pillar and breaking it in half, but I wasn't inside; I had gone underground a while ago to keep the structure going and to make something new out of it. As she hit the pillar, she noticed some wetness in her shirt, some strange smell; it was gasoline—oil and the smell in the air. I had been turning everything around me into propane; the structure looks simple, but it's a complete combination of extremely volatile and dangerous liquids, solids, and even the air. "... WAIT!" She screamed as Draw turned on his finger, igniting the pyramid from the inside and creating an extremely volatile explosion.

All three of them flew in different directions thanks to it, the most hurt from the explosion being Gross who was barely able to tank it, he flew straight at Yoshi who was ready to receive him with a punch but right on time he dodged by shooting his gast to the ground.

Y: "DAMN IT!"

R: But not enough to dodge Sato, who jumped and got him in the air with a punch, knocking him out, not before he exploded a last gas smoke right on his face. He fell while holding Gross, but also did his best to not throw up as he had been hit with the noxious gas. That was one down at least.

S: From the rubble Sky appeared, floating and really badly hurt as well from it but still able to fight, noticing all the heroes remaining. "What? All of you against me? BRING IT!"

J: I came around to see them as Tsuyu approached.

T: "Jack?" She noticed my hand petrified as I quickly unmade that, turning it into flesh and bone again.

J: "I am good, I am good. Just a bit dizzy; making such complex structures so quickly really drains me, but I just need a minute or two, don't worry. Where did Draw go?" I was suddenly surprised by an explosion that sent me away, Draw seemingly ignoring Tsuyu and the others, wanting to continue fighting against me.

D:"THAT WAS GOOD JACK! PROPER FOR YOUR RANK! CAN YOU DEFEAT ME NOW?!"

J: I still had to bring this one down, and it wasn't going to be easy.
