⚠️This chapter has a small amount of sadness in it, a huge ass fight, and All Might being completely fucking useless.⚠️

A few days later, Aizawa announced that the class was going on a field trip to an off-campus facility named Unforeseen Simulation Joint, or USJ.

"Everyone form a single file line and enter the bus one at a time!" Iida yelled to the class, trying to get them all to calmly enter the designated bus for their field trip. Though, the only ones that did this were Flynn(who isn't wearing his armor), Jirou, Koda, Momo, Todoroki, Bakugo, and Shoji. Everyone else was loud and extremely excited to be going on the trip, not knowing what was going to happen to them later that day.

After everyone had gotten on the bus, sat next to their friends, and calmed down enough, the driver started the vehicle and drove off in the direction of the USJ. Flynn and Jirou were sitting together and had started a small conversation about what kind of heroes they were planning to be in the future.
"So, Kyo, I had a question." Flynn started.
Jirou in response had looked up at him.
"I've been wondering lately, what kind of hero are you planning to be?" Flynn asked her, curious.
Jirou, a bit caught off guard by the question, thought about it for a moment before answering,
"Hmm, uhh, I guess I just want to be a hero that everyone can depend on and someone to be a beacon of hope for people of different styles if that makes sense.."
Flynn smiled at this and pulled her into a gentle arm hug.
"That's a respectable goal. Very noble of you.." Flynn said to her softly.
Jirou blushes a little at the praise but looks up at him again,
"What about you? What kind of hero are you trying to be?" Jirou asks him, now curious.
He also thought of this for a bit before answering.
"Well, it's not exactly the most. heroic... but I want to become a lethal protector of sorts, a hero that rids the streets of evil permanently." Flynn said with a serious expression.
Jirou was taken aback by this and immediately became concerned.
"B-but won't the public not agree with that?" Jirou said a bit louder than she meant, causing a few classmates to look in their direction.
"Hmh, I could care less about what the media thinks of me. My only concern is the safety of the innocent. If that means I'll have blood on my hands, so be it."
Jirou was about to say something but Flynn put a finger on her lips. "Think about it this way, you put a serial criminal in jail, and they either wait out their sentence or escape. What do they do?" Flynn asked her, removing his finger from her lips.
She thought for a moment. "T-they commit the same or worse crimes?" She said, unsure of her answer.
"Bingo. Resulting in more people getting hurt or killed. Which is why I want to deal with the problem permanently." He told Jirou.
"Are you going to continue laying underneath us and listening Sensei? Or are you gonna give us your thought on the matter?" Flynn said to the now impressed Aizawa in his sleeping bag underneath their seat.
Jirou looked confused for a moment but became surprised when Aizawa's voice come from under them.
"Good job... You're the first to notice me down here.." The tired hero said.
"Now, my thoughts on the type of hero you're planning on becoming? Honestly, I don't agree with the fact you plan on killing villains, but sadly... As much as I'm expected to disagree with you on this by society, I admit you have a point." He confessed to the 2.

Jirou had a shocked expression looking down at Aizawa while Flynn was slightly smirking.
Heh, glad to hear that you're not gonna expel me from U.A." Flynn said jokingly.
"Oh no, you have way too much potential for me to expel you for that." He started but then whispers, "You're also my favorite student..."
"Favorite student hmm?" Flynn said smirking down at Aizawa.
Aizawa's eyes widen slightly as he whispered that so quietly that even Jirou wouldn't have heard it if it was dead silent in the bus.
"T-that's some hearing kid," Aizawa said, genuinely impressed but he sighs, "Just... Don't tell anyone, I don't want the others to think I'm picking favorites.."
Flynn smiles down at his sensei,
"Of course, I won't sensei I know you'll only be harder on me for it," Flynn said as if he was reading Aizawas mind.
<He already figure me out? He might even be able to compete with Nezu.> Aizawa thinks.

One hour had passed.

During that passing hour, Aizawa and Flynn had an ongoing conversation about what they both thought of hero laws and recent things that have happened. About 30 minutes in Flynn felt a weight on his shoulder and saw that Jirou had fallen asleep and was leaning on his shoulder. During the last 30 minutes, the class had one by one discussed each other's quirks. When they inevitably turned to Flynn to ask about his, he simply refused to give them a straight answer. Everyone kept trying to pressure him into telling them but he didn't budge one bit.
"But it's only fair that you tell us about your quirk! We shared information about ours!" Kaminari tried to reason with Flynn to no avail.
"Yeah!" A few other classmates yelled in agreement.
Due to this sudden burst of shouting, Jirou almost immediately shot awake fearing the worst. Flynn's eyes widen and he wraps an arm around her and hugs her tightly, which she immediately returns surprisingly just as tight, shaking lightly.
"Shhh... shhh... it's okay.. you're okay.. he won't hurt you anymore.." Flynn says in an attempt to comfort her which seemed to work a bit as Jirou stopped shaking as much. Flynn looks up at Kaminari with an intense death glare and he lets out a low growl, genuinely pissed off. This causes Kaminari and those close to him to freeze like deer in headlights, their eyes widen in fear but are unable to turn away, although Kaminari is getting the full effect.
"N-now, everyone, Taggart doesn't have to give any information if he doesn't want to.." Momo speaks up, quite nervous and with a shaky smile.
"Yaoyorozu is right... leave it be..." Aizawa speaks up.
Flynn holds the glare for a few more seconds before dropping it and focusing on Jirou again. A few minutes pass and Flynn managed to calm Jirou down for the most part, and they finally arrive outside the USJ.
Aizawa tiredly gets up out of his sleeping spot and drags his feet to the front of the bus.
"Alright bitches.. we're here.. everyone off of the bus... Now." Aizawa orders everyone while activating his quirk, and they all follow the orders. Flynn and Jirou are the last ones off of the bus, her sticking quite close to Flynn. Aizawa walks over to the entrance and turns around.
"One thing you should know... we have another Pro-Hero inside that's going to help you train.." Aizawa tells the class in a tired, uncaring voice.
They all proceed to enter the massive facility and Flynn walks next to Aizawa with a serious face.
"I have a bad feeling about this sensei.." He warns the tired, yet serious pro.
"So you have that feeling too.." Aizawa says, looking like he could fall asleep there, but with a serious tone.

Flynn nods and asks, "Permission to assist in combat if our feeling is right..?"
Aizawa grumbles a bit, but hesitantly replies, "Fine."
Flynn gives a small smile and returns next to Jirou.
"Hello everyone! I'm-" The mysterious Pro starts but gets cut off.
"The Rescue Hero Thirteen! Oh my God! I'm such a big fan!!!" Uraraka says with stars in her eyes, geeking out.
"Heh, always happy to meet a fan! You heard her! I'm Thirteen." The newly identified pro says, actually quite happy to meet a fan. She then goes on to go on a rant about how dangerous quirks can be. Flynn, not paying attention to the lecture and instead looked around the USJ.
"Wow! You guys even have fake villains!" Kirishima exclaims.
"Fake villains?" Thirteen says, confused and her and Aizawa both turn to look at where Kirishima is looking to see a purple mist with hundreds of villains pouring out of it.
"Those aren't fake! Those are real villains!" The 2 say at the same time.
Flynn turns to Iida,
"You're the fastest here! Run to UA and get help!" He tells his classmate.
"B-but-" Iida starts.
"Now!" Flynn yells at him.
Iida hesitates but begins to run toward the entrance.
"Now now.. wouldn't want anyone escaping.. would we- Gah!" A purple mist appears in front of Iida but a gunshot rings out. Flynn, holding his smoking combat shotgun towards the villain.
"Go! Now!" Flynn yells again at Iida.
Iida, not hesitating now, runs at full speed towards the entrance and manages to pry the door open and slip through.
Both Flynn and Aizawa look at each other and nod. They both jump down the massive flight of stairs, both flying and landing at the same time. Some of the villains laugh and try to activate their quirks to no avail.
"Huh? What the?!?" A villain says.
Flynn takes the initiative and jumps upwards, he falls downwards into the middle of the villains with absolutely no concern for his safety. Aizawa's eyes widen at this and he tries to yell out to Flynn but sees its too late he decides to jump in as well but only getting to the front lines and not in the middle of them as that would be suicide for Eraserhead, sure he was good at combat, but he isn't stupid. Already there were sounds of brief screaming and heavy cracks coming from Flynn's area as he was completely dominating the villains over both close and long range. Almost immediately Flynn had cleared a space of about 2 meters around him when a massive villain from Aizawas side of the battlefield rushes through some small villains towards Flynn and the places of said small villains were replaced almost instantly. Unfortunately for the villain, Flynn spotted him the moment he started charging, and already planned an attack. The villain swung a massive haymaker at Flynn, but due to the slow attack, Flynn was able to land a devastatingly powerful front kick to the villain's solar plexus. This attack caused many of the villains' ribs to audibly shatter, sounding like glass breaking, and the villain was sent flying in the opposite direction through many villains, knocking most of them out, and into a villain that was about to land an attack on Aizawa. The said hero and some surrounding villains look in that direction and are immediately surprised by the already growing pile of unconscious and/or dead villains. On top of the pile was Flynn fighting off the horde of villains coming from all sides. Suddenly, Flynn jumped off of the large pile of villains and onto Aizawas side. The hero took this distraction as a chance to attack and knock out some of the villains that were previously overwhelming him. Aizawa looks over to Flynn for a moment, the 2 making eye contact for a moment and nod. Using his capture scarf, Aizawa wraps up a villain and launches him towards Flynn, who grabs the villain by the ankle and begins using him as a bludgeon against the diminishing crowd of villains. From the way Flynn was swinging him around, the villain's ankle and shin broke almost immediately.
The rest of the class had gotten teleported away to their canon places with only a few remaining with a heavily injured Thirteen at the top of the stairs. Those remaining being Shoji, Sato, Sero, Mina, and Uraraka, all looking in surprise at the battle going on below them.

A few minutes pass.

All of the villains have either been knocked unconscious by Aizawa or severely injured by Flynn.
"..you didn't have to hurt them that much you know..." Aizawa said to Flynn while looking between the several piles of villains.

Flynn says nothing and just stares at Shigaraki. Just now, everyone seemed to be finished with the villains in their zones and are arriving to see the scene before them. All but Jirou widen their eyes, her sort of expecting this since Flynn was fighting.
"Tch. Weaklings... Kurogiri!" Shigaraki shouts out.
The purple mistman now identified as Kurogiri, appears next to Shigaraki.
"Yes, young master?" Kurogiri asks politely.
"Get the Nomu.." Shigaraki orders.
"But young master, that's meant for All Mig-" Kurogiri starts but is cut off.
"NOW!" The man-child screams out.
Without another word, Kurogiri expands, and out comes a massive, black.. creature... Everyone but Flynn looks at the Nomu with wide eyes, and Flynn's eyes narrow at the sight.
(Small Explanation: This Nomu looks like the canon USJ nomu, but it is much, much, stronger. So strong that Prime All Might would have trouble.)
"Nomu! Kill Eraserhead!" Shigaraki orders the bird creature.
In response to this, the Nomu blitzes in front of Eraserhead who doesn't even have enough time to react properly before his head was grabbed and smashed into the concrete. Flynn's eyes now widen at the speed of the creature and he quickly runs up to the Nomu and jumps towards it. Both of his feet land on the Nomu's chest and he pushes off, managing to move the creature off of the now extremely bloody Aizawa.
Shigaraki begins to scratch his neck out of irritation.
"Tch. Nomu! Kill the brat and then kill Eraserhead!" He ordered the Nomu.
Immediately, the Nomu landed a powerful punch to Flynn's sternum, letting out a massive wave of wind pressure comparable to All Mights 100% Detroit Smash, sending Flynn flying into the staircase. Flynn, despite the ground-shaking punch that left him gasping for air, had gotten up and managed to recover nearly instantly.
<I.. actually felt that... this could get interesting...>
Flynn looks up to see the Nomu already charging at him again, but unlike last time, he has a grasp of the speed of the Nomu, was ready, and got into a boxer stance. The Nomu throws a haymaker at Flynn who rolls under it and lands a left hook to the Nomu's ribcage, doing nothing. Shigaraki laughs evilly.
"HAHAHA, MY NOMU HAS SHOCK ABSORPTION, REGENERATION, AND SUPER STRENGTH! HE WAS MADE TO KILL ALL MIGHT! THERE'S NO WAY YOU CAN GET OUT OF THIS ALIVE!" Shigaraki foolishly explains to Flynn.
<Absorption and not nullification? That means it has a limit. And made? So it's technically lost all of its humanity and rights... That means I can legally kill it!> Flynn thinks, and lets out a devilish smile. The Nomu and Flynn then enter an intense exchange of blows, each blow causing a mini earthquake. Both the arms of the Nomu and Flynn are blurs that even All Might would have trouble seeing.
Each blow Flynn can feel... Flynn ducks under a wide punch and gets behind the Nomu, wrapping his arms around its midsection, and effectively suplexes it. Quickly rolling out of the way, Flynn tried to gain some distance but the Nomu grabs him by the ankle and starts swinging him around like a ragdoll, hitting him on the ground several times and tearing off his shirt. The Nomu finally lets go and lands another powerful punch on Flynn, sending him into a fake mountain a few meters away from Jirou, Momo, and Kaminari.
"F-FLYNN!!!" Jirou shouts out and tries to approach.
"No! Stay ba-" Flynn tries to tell her but the Nomu is already on him again and landing punch after punch to Flynn's face. Flynn managed to get his arms up in a blocking position.
"NOOO! GET OFF OF HIM!" Jirou shouts and tries jumping on the Nomu's back with the sword that Momo made for her raised high, only to receive a backhand from the Nomu, which causes her to let go of the sword and get sent flying and tumbling halfway across the USJ. Flynn's eyes widen and he watches her body tumble across the USJ before finally stopping, her costume torn and her arm obviously broken. Seeing this, Flynn's entire world seems to fall apart as he thinks that Jirou is dead. The Nomu goes for another heavy punch, but its fist stops as Flynn had caught the punch. The Nomu tries to pull away, but it can't seem to get out of Flynn's grasp, who is now looking down and gritting his teeth. The Nomu starts to struggle more and let out pained noises as it finds Flynn's grip to be getting considerably stronger. Now barely able to stand on its feet, the Nomu lets out a brief scream of pain before getting cut off by getting sent flying into the far opposite wall of the USJ. Flynn starts to breathe hard and rapidly, the ripped-off hand of the Nomu gets crushed under Flynn's grip. A menacing, blood-red aura starts emitting from his body as he starts to enter a berserker state. Suddenly, a loud bang can be heard over the entrance.
"I.. AM... HERE!!!" All Might shouts out, not smiling at all, but is surprised to see the number of unconscious villains on the floor. His eyes then fall onto Flynn and his eyes widen at the amount of pressure the enraged man is releasing. Suddenly, Flynn disappears, the entire mountain behind him turning to rubble flying in the opposite direction. All Might couldn't even see Flynn as he already landed a devastating punch to the Nomu's solar plexus, causing cracks to go almost 1/4th of the USJ walls. Flynn then uppercuts the Nomu so hard that it rockets straight up through concrete and slides across the glass dome roof of the USJ. Right as the Nomu almost reaches the top, Flynn appears next to it and Volleyball spikes it into the fountain in the middle of the USJ. Flynn launches off of the roof of the USJ and lands an elbow straight into the Nomu's sternum, piercing g through it and into the Nomu's chest. This, however, does nothing to stop the Wrath of the Slayer as Flynn gets on top of the Nomu and starts delivering heavy punch after heavy punch directly on the Nomu's head. Eventually, this leads to the Nomus brain getting destroyed, killing it, but Flynn doesn't stop. He continues to punch the Nomu until the head is literally a paste on the ground. All Might lands next to Flynn and tries to pry him off to no avail. About 5 minutes of this pass and Flynn's berserker state finally starts to run out. Flynn's punches slow, and the power lessens until finally he's completely stopped.
"N-no! You cheated... YOU CHEATED!" Shigaraki starts throwing a tantrum. Then noticing the rest of the heroes along with Nezu arriving with Iida, Shigaraki realized the situation he's in.
"K-Kurogiri! Get me out of he- GAH!" He starts and Kurogiri immediately opens a portal, then, Shigaraki was shot in the leg by Snipe which is what caused him to yell in pain but also causes him to fall into Kurogiri's portal. Kurogiri disappeared.
Flynn with shaky breath, stood up and shakily walked over to Jirou. He falls to his knees when he reaches her and he immediately checks her pulse, finding a small one. With a sense of relief, Flynn carefully wraps his arms around her and hugs her, being careful of her broken arm. He buries his face in her shoulder and silently cries.
