CAVALRY BATTLE:
Just as midoriya finished crying, due to Tokoyami saving his team to progress further, A loud *BOOM* was heard throughout the stadium, along with a bright flash of light coming from the center of the structure. It resembled when lighting and thunder occur at the same moment.
"What the?" was the unanimous response. The crown grew silent
Just as everyone looked to the source of the noise, they all become utterly confused. Why? You ask? Well, a floating mass of liquid mud was floating about 4 ½ feet off the ground, in the center of the arena.
"Is that mud?" asked Izuku, well he mumbled it.
"EVERYONE STAY BACK!" yelled all might as he leapt down to the stadium floor.
"This could be a villain! I want all the students to step BACK!" he commanded, and they complied.
Just then Endeavor leapt over the railing of the seated section, and down as well. "I am not letting you take all the action All Might." he shouted
"This is not some game Endeavor." All Might replied
Soon the entire UA faculty, and several pros surrounded the floating mud-puddle, most of the non-faculty were keeping the students back, and by now the media were right behind the students. They hoped to catch a fight on tape. Alas what would come was far from a fight…
"All Might!"
"What?!"
"The object is moving!"
"I can see that!"
Just then, the mass of liquified dirt spat out a fairly solid item, it flew to land in front of the line of students behind the heros. It landed and rolled to a stop.
Izuku took several moments to examine it. He almost instantly felt sick on the realization of what he was looking at.
"OH GOD!" yelled a reporter
There, infront of all the students of a cav battle, and all the reporters. Lay a severed wrist and hand, covered in mud and blood.
Izuku thought he was going to be sick, he had a momentary flashback to the time he was attacked by the sludge villain. That only worsened his fear.
"GET READY EVERYONE THAT THING IS ACTIVE!" yelled shouted Aizawa.
What happened next, was to change the world...
The mass of mud spat out a flurry of high-speed wood splinters, a metal shards, out towards the ground, most of the debris stuck straight up out of the ground, their size and lethal speed caused everyone to take a step back just in case of another dangerous spray of debris came from the liquid again.
*BOOM*
Everyone snapped their attention to the floating mass of filth
The mass of mud shifts until it is about the size of a person, and then retreats back 2 paces and reverts to its disc-like shape from before. However it leaves behind a PERSON! A boy by the looks of it. He wore a wool shirt and pants(soaked in mud) a pair of boots, and a series of leather straps. But what everyone was focusing on was the fact that he was MISSING HIS LOWER JAW! It looked to have been blown off. He fell to his knees gurgling and grabbing at his neck and "mouth". He continued to cough and wheeze until he went limp in a sitting position, and his head hanging.
"Oh my god, All Might we have to-" midnight began
"It's too late!" he interrupted, she realized he had(in the blink of an eye) swiped the boy and laid him down with recovery girl, she only confirmed his claim. The boy had died in front of them
Next the mass of mud and death, spat out yet another large item this time IT WAS TWO PEOPLE! They rolled as they fell from the floating disc of filth and misery
The two could be heard grunting, they rolled until one man was on top of the other, the one on top was dressed in wool clothing, but a much brighter hue of brown. And the one on bottom had the same as the dead fellow from before (dark grayish brown) the man on top was beating on the other with a club.
The entire mass of onlookers watched in horror as the man beat on the other
"Just-" the one on top spouted
"Fucking, DIE you damned Fritz!" he finished
Suddenly the area filled with pink gas, and the two fell unconscious. Then All Might carried them over to Recovery girl and the dead man from before.
Finally the muddy mass shifted and flung out a disemboweled horse and then finally fell to the ground, becoming a normal puddle of mudd. It's screeching was horrible. The shouts of pain coming from the animal were so horrific that one reported even shouted, "for the love of- KILL IT PLEASE!" to the heros. Endeavor swiftly responded by incinerating the poor animal with a mighty fireball….
Later….
"This just in! A horrific sight from the UA sports festival, we all saw it, but if you were unable to watch the games, that might be a blessing. After the conclusion of the second event, a mysterious mass of what can only be called a thick mass of death and evil! The heros were swift to act, forming a perimeter around the object. However, the filth released several chilling and disgusting items. According to eyewitness testimony, and mounds of video evidence the items that exited the object were *ahgem* a severed hand, hundreds of wood splinters and metal debris, three humans - one deceased -, and one fatally injured horse…"
The reporter quickly went through a segment on speculation as to who these people could be, most saying villain, except for a foreign guest, and man from france
"Well, you must see-" a image of the two similarly dressed men (one of which died) popped up on screen (with the face blurred) "these two young men, are wearing german uniforms, and this one-" he pointed to the one who was fighting the third person "- has a spiked cap on his head." he finished
"Ah yes i see, what does this mean? and what kind of uniform did you say it was, again?" the reporter asked
"I am getting to that, and second, It is a german uniform. But not just some german clothing, no, this is first world war era german landwehr feldrock and kit." the frenchman continued
"Wait, are you saying these men are from the first world war? A conflict from over 148 years ago?" the reporter inquired
"Yes, exactly! These men are definitely of the german imperial armies. This one also has a rifle on his back, as you can see here -" he pointed to the photo "- that is a German Imperial, Mauser Gewehr 1898 model infantry rifle."
"Now for the third man -" the photos changed to one of the unconscious young man "- he is wearing the 1914 british field khaki uniform, and he is wearing a full kit of british make from the conflict as well. We has the enfield cartridge pouched here -" he points to the photo "thus, he is likely to be from the UK" the frenchman finished
"Baffling! How could people in equipment from almost one and a half centuries ago appear in the middle of a modern day tournament?" asked the reporter
"To be honest, My only guesses would be that someone who was in the stadium has a quirk that can make gateways in time. But this is a farfetched idea due to quirks being limited by the body and conventional physics. The other being, that these people were reenactors who were possible caught up in an encounter with villains, or maybe something horribly wrong happened during a battle reenactment. But those two are much more realistic, warp quirks are rare, yes. But that means that we just need to find who has a warp quirk related to mud! I mean the quirk type is rare enough to make the search for our culprit fairly easy. But I don't really know either way sir" the frenchmen replied
"Thank you for coming on with your expertise to help find out what is going on"
"Glad to be of some use" the frenchman said as the camera returned to focus on the reported alone
"Ah, well only the coming months will tell the truth of these strange individuals!" he said
"Currently, the two surviving persons are being cared for in the surgical wing of the UA medical facility on the campus grounds. They are reported to be in comas for an unknown period of time! If you have ANY information, call the federal investigation bureau near you and tell them what you know! In other news…" the reporter continued on as Yagi Toshinori turned off the TV and began to think to himself. Sitting in the teachers lounge, later getting up and joining the rest of the teachers behind the couch and TV…
"What the hell do we do about these people Nedzu? According to the test done by recovery girl, and the medical staff, one is at most 16, and the other is about 18." asked Ectoplasm
"Yeah! What will we do about those unfortunate listeners Principal?" Asked Present Mic
"Please, please! Quiet down. We are going to care for them until they wake up, plain and simple. The 18 year old will be released as soon as possible once he awakes. However, the minor is another issue… we will talk about that later. Anyway, we did do some blood and DNA work on the two. First off, the big thing we found out, is that all of the individuals from the event, including the deceased male, are all quirkless. Secondly, it seems the minor is almost 100% Germanic, and the older one is 85% English. Thus, we have sent pictures of them both to their respectful regions of decent, and the nations within them. We hope to receive some matches of missing persons cases from europe. If there are no fruits there, we must begin searching in the USA and other migrant nations as well. But this is all just starting, we have no idea what will come back (if anything)" Nedzu explained
"Sir, it sounds like we're stuck with them." Aizawa inquired
"I am afraid so. But, I wish for all of you to clear your minds of this issue until the two wake up, or further developments are made clear to you. This, i wish for you all to focus on teaching you classes, instead of focusing on this manner." Nedzu asked them
"Understood Principal" answered Midnight
"Sure thing sir" replied Present mic
"Yes sir" replied several other teachers before they all left to prepare their classes for the next days of schooling
Just as Yagi reached the exit, behind everyone else, he turned to Principal Nedzu and said, "sir, I don't know what to tell the students, they are certainly going to ask. What should i tell them, and tell the interviewers as well?" he finished
"Just tell them that the two living people are under our care, and that we can't release anything until the issue is sorted out. Okay Toshinori." Nedzu replied
"I understand sir. Just really been stressed out after seeing that boy with the missing… well you know…"
"I understand that you are uneasy Toshinori, but you and I both know that you have seen MUCH worse sights in your career. Please try not to focus on it if you can. But always know that the staff are here to help if you so need it, same for the other treachers too."
"Sorry sir I guess I am just a bit rattled by the whole thing, I will not allow this to hinder the development of our students sir." Yagi responded
"Great, jets hear a Plus Ultra!"
"Plus Ultra!" shouted Yagi as he raised a fist to the air and said goodbye.
The entirety of the UA staff, and young Izuku Midoriya, were eager to talk to the two mystery males who arrived during the tournament. Sadly they would have to wait, A LONG WHILE, in fact...
To be specific, about one internship, a handful of tests, a camping trip, a kidnapped Baukugo, and a fight between Peace and an ultimate Evil, later they would finally get the chance to do just that…
well, almost.
(TO BE CONTINUED….)
A/N -
HEY how did you like this one? Should I continue it? (if that is a yes, then i will slightly edit this chapter) (if not, then what should I do next? Besides fucking finishing my BNHA x Assassin's Creed piece. Again, sorry about the wait, but I have not been in the mood to continue that one recently, but i am feeling a bit more in the groove of writing, so HOLD ON A BIT LONGER GUYS!)
PS: what do you think of the whole idea of the characters of BNHA being exposed to the brutal realities of war(s)? Like WWI, WWII, Vietnam, Iraq wars, (middle east recently), or maybe the crusades, or maybe other BIG wars from recent history? OOOH HOW ABOUT A FIC HAVING TO DO WITH THE COLD WAR OR MAYBE SOMETHING WITH ESPIONAGE?! I think I have a definite upcoming concept for a side piece now ;)
Finally -
I chose world war one because of the brutality of the fighting, due to the western front having a stalemate that called for the invention of things like TANKS AND Flamethrowers, as well as calling for the use of Poison/Acidic Gases. Thus I could better show our innocent little teens the facts of, you are training to fight a war on evils throughout japan, AND THE WORLD. In the pursuit of peace, there is only war. And that, in war, anything is fair if it can help your side win. Same goes for the enemy too, prepare yourself to see awful things, and lose people who you couldn't reach in time. I am choosing to do this after the events listed at the end, is because, I believe they would better understand and accept these truths if they already had a little bit of experience with one or more of them. 1-A might see some things they will wish they could forget though. They better prepare themselves. Oh wait! They can't because I am the shitty author, and they have no idea about any of this I have told you, because they aren't real, and they aren't self-aware! Well, sucks for them I guess…
Anyway, see you guys soon! HAPPY NEW YEAR! :D
