The sun was barely starting to rise when class 1A trickled onto the bus to the training camp. There were a few subdued conversations here and there, but most people were too tired to make a whole lot of noise. Hitoshi knew that wouldn't last. He'd been on enough normal field trips to know that the bus was going to be absolute chaos by the time they actually got to wherever their destination was. Joy.

Shinso: Not to mention Aizawa's logical ruses.

He wasn't really surprised when Kaminari sidled up to him, "Hey, uh, did you ever get around to checking out that stream that I recommended?"

Hitoshi glared at him tiredly, "A little warning would have been nice. You almost gave Aizawa a panic attack."

Kaminari: Sorry sensei...

Kaminari winced, but immediately sent a quick glance over toward Todoroki, "So, uh..."

"We're dealing with it." Hitoshi grumbled. "Cheat Code's consulting, and we've got a plan, so just... keep doing what you've been doing. The heroes will get it figured out."

The quiet murmurs of the class went dead silent when Aizawa walked onto the bus and started glaring at them, "Good morning gremlins."

Thirteen: That's an interesting way to describe them...

A pathetic chorus of good mornings and grumbles that were probably supposed to mean something like that echoed through the bus and Dad rolled his eyes, "I hope you can muster up a bit more enthusiasm for the actual training part of this camp, otherwise you're going to have a very hard time. But whatever, try not explode anyone's eardrums, don't stand up and, oh, right, all technology, including any cell phones and video game consoles, need to be turned off and put in here."

"What?!" Mina gripped her phone to her chest. "But..."

Mineta: They have to stop me from telling the League where we're going.

Shigaraki: That won't work. Sensei had a search quirk before he actually got Search; it was weak but it worked.

Mei: Uh oh.

"It's just for security reasons." Aizawa said, handing the box to Iida to pass around. "Do I need to remind you that you were just attacked two days ago? We need to make sure the villains can't hack your phones to find the camp's location. Now get to work and if I hear of anyone bribing Yaoyorozu, I will expel you, understood?"

There was a louder chorus of grumbles this time, but all in all it only took about 15 minutes for everyone to turn in their phones and get on their way. Even though it was almost impossible that the league would attack twice so close together, there was still a chance the league would try to contact Todoroki during during the training came and considering that most of their time together was spent on gaming streams, they'd figured that if Shigaraki was going to reach out, he'd do it digitally. The plan was to leave all student phones at UA so they couldn't be used to find the camp while also letting Nezu keep a convenient eye on the devices if a text from Shigaraki happened to come through. The teachers, on the other hand, had been given three different backups to be able to contact the school, just in case.

Hitoshi had been expecting Todoroki to have more of a reaction to having his phone confiscated, but he was also stoic enough that it wasn't too odd. The people who seemed most upset about the new phone rule were Mina and Kaminari, which checked out, and oddly enough, Mineta. Hitoshi wrinkled his nose in disgust. Maybe this was for the best. He really didn't want to know what that grape stain had been planning on using his phone for during the camp.

Shinso: No, you actually do want to know this time. He's the traitor.

The labs were cramped now that the entirety of class 1F was there with all their bags for the whole week. The labs were decently large, so it wouldn't have been so bad if their tables hadn't already been filled with all the fun new materials and projects they would be working on during the training camp. Izuku hovered by Mei's table, moving their bags away whenever it seemed like something was about to explode. They'd made Eraserhead promise to let them know if anything bad happened, but Izuku had helped make the plan to keep 1A safe, so he just had to trust that Hitoshi and Ochaco would be fine and focus on doing what he could to stop the league, which was perfecting his tracking program and finding Kurogiri.

The door to the lab opened behind them and Power Loader walked in, followed by David Shield and Melissa. Mei was too busy tinkering to notice, but Izuku's face lit up when he saw them and they smiled back, making Power Loader sigh when he noticed. This week was going to be so much fun, Izuku could already tell.

Power Loader: That week was chaos...

When they got to the front of the room, Power Loader turned around, "Class, I would like to introduce David Shield and his daughter Melissa. Both of them are inventors and support technicians on I-island and I encourage you to listen to their advice, you'll learn a lot from them. Now, let's get some basic logistics out of the way. How many of you have been wondering where you'll be sleeping?"

Kirishima: Hold on where did you guys sleep?

Mei: Everywhere!

The entire class raised their hands.

To Izuku's surprise, Power Loader smiled, "There's a tradition that happens every year during this workshop, meant to help spawn creativity and help all of you to think outside the box. UA is a big place and long story short, you're allowed to sleep anywhere."

That got Mei to look up, "Anywhere?"

Cementoss: Unfortunately anywhere.

Sero: That sounds fun!

Power Loader nodded, "Anywhere. Nezu sometimes gives prizes for ingenuity. Just make sure you stay safe, if you're somewhere you could fall, then you'll have to either move or prove that you're properly secured. That being said, setting up camp is your first task of the day, because we need the space in here to do the actual work of the week. We meet back here at noon, don't be late!"

Izuku and Mei looked at eachother with matching grins. They were right, this week was going to be a blast.

Momo: Well it was until someone decided to attack camp.

As they filed off the bus, Hitoshi glanced over at Ochaco. They'd been so busy planning for the training camp and figuring out what to do about Todoroki that he never actually got a chance to pull her aside and talk about what had happened at the mall and now they were going to be around all of their classmates for a whole week. Hitoshi sighed. He'd probably already missed his chance.

Mina: I can help.

Shinso: Yeah well you being involved was the whole reason why this awkward thing happened so...

Aizawa had been talking to a couple of cat themed heroes and a kid that had gotten out a car shortly after they pulled up, but he turned back to the class before anyone had the chance to wander off, "Hello everyone, I'd like you introduce you to a few of the heroes you'll be working with this week."

Shigaraki: Well, so we're watching this again.

The hero with brown hair started the official introduction, "Lock on with those sparking gazes!"

"Surprisingly cute and catlike!" The blond one added.

They finished together, "The Wild, Wild Pusssycats!"

Toga: Do they do this every time?

Thirteen: Mm-hm.

Hitoshi felt a chill run down his spine when Dad smiled, "They're here to make sure you get whipped into shape. Lunch is at noon. That gives you about three hours. Good luck."

Midnight: Heh, dad.

"What do you...?" Kaminari had started backing back toward the bus when the ground started moving underneath them, "What the...?!"

They were swept off the cliff and Hitoshi scrambled to get ahold of anything, but nope. He really should have been suspicious when Dad told him to pack his capture weapon in his backpack and not his duffel. Most of the class was groaning when they reached the bottom, but Yaoyorozu immediately jumped into action, "Is anyone injured?"

Kaminari: No but I still wish we could've just taken the bus like 1B!

There was a quick shuffling as everyone checked themselves over before they heard Mineta screaming and everyone looked over to see a giant monster looming over them. Okay, yeah, Aizawa was definitely planning on putting them through the wringer.

Mic: When is he not?

Tomura didn't like the new recruits. If he still had any say in anything, he'd turn pretty much all of them away and call off this whole attack, but he wasn't stupid enoguh to think that would do any good. The league had launched an entire attack without him, so why in the world would they stop one just because he said so?

The new batch was even worse than the ones he'd met before the mall attack though and about five times more annoying. Sure, Mustard, Magne, and Compress were kind of on par with Dabi and Toga, but Tomura still didn't think they needed to be villains to accomplish their goals, especially not Mustard. All for One was probably ecstatic about his addition though. Kids were easier to manipulate.

Dabi(glaring at Endeavor): Yeah, sure.

The ones he really hated though were Muscular and Moonfish. There was no doubt that they were perfectly happy being villains considering that their goal was quite literally just to kill people, and maybe Tomura was being judgemental, but those didn't seem like very worthwhile goals. They were selfish and shortsighted, like a druggie always looking for their next hit and in this case their drug of choice was other people's suffering.

He'd locked himself in his room pretty soon after the vanguard action squad had shown up to prep for the big attack and had basically spent the whole time playing video games by himself. Thankfully, he didn't have to participate in this one, he didn't even want to imagine how awkward that would be if he happened to run into Todoroki. Actually, it would still be hella awkward because he still streamed with the guy. Well, hopefully, if Todoroki ever decided to talk to him again. But whatever, he could handle playing video games alone if it meant that he didn't have to deal with bloodthirsty serial killers like Muscular and Moonfish.

Toga: Uh you do realize I'm a bloodthirsty serial killer too right?

Shigaraki: Well at least you have an excuse. No one willingly gives you blood and you need that.

Tomura froze, hardly noticing when an enemy killed his character as he came to a realization. That was who All for One wanted him to be. He wanted him to be just like Muscular and Moonfish: a tool that enjoyed bloodshed and murder just as much as those two did so that Sensei could just point Tomura in the direction of someone he wanted dead and they'd be dust before the end of the day. It was what he'd been going for ever since Tomura was a little kid and it was the same goal he had for Mustard, Toga... everyone in the league.

He couldn't stay here. He needed out. Asap. And if getting out meant throwing his dear Sensei under the bus, then that sounded even better.

Shigaraki: Wait am I...

Todoroki: Turning traitor? I think so.

Shigaraki: Ugh too late for me to do that isn't it?

Aoyama(thinking about his own status as the traitor): Probably...
