IN AN UNKNOWN LOCATION

A purple mist portal suddenly appeared and a panting and raging Shigaraki exited the portal. He was grumbling about green haired cheaters over and over again.

As he was muttering a voice came out from a monitor on the side. 

"Calm down, Tomura... We were too optimistic about the attack. Hmmm.. But you know, it seems that they underestimated us. I'm glad that the League of Villains' name is so cheap, incidentally." the voice paused and continued. 

"What has become of that joint work of sensei's and mines? Has the Nomu's body not been retrieve?" the voice said making Shigaraki growl.

Seeing that the ash-blue haired manwasn't gonna answer, Kurogiri was the one to answer the voice. "I'm afraid that the Nomu will never be retrieved, one of the students seems to have a consuming quirk and had absorbed him, not leaving a single limb behind.

This caused the voice in the monitor to be quiet for a couple of seconds and responded. 

"Absorbed you say? Even though I went as far as loading him with power to rival All Might's.." said the voice making the two wince. "Oh well.. Can't be helped... What a shame...

Though the voice seems calm, Kurogiri and Shigaraki know that the man was upset.

"For now let's relax a bit and let's gather a new group, hand-picked for efficiency! And let's take all the time we need!" he said as he chuckled darkly. "Remember, we can't move freely! That's why a symbol like you is necessary."

"Tomura Shigaraki!! Next time, you must show the world the true horror of your existence!" the voice finished as he laughed behind the monitor while Shigaraki clenched his fist, vowing to end the life of All Might and a certain green haired kid.

BACK IN THE USJ, CENTRAL PLAZA

Midnight had a sad look on her face while looking at Izuku. He was laying on the ground unconscious soaked with blood and dirt all over his gym uniform. She knew that the boy had done his all to protect his classmates and fight off the villains. 

'You truly are worthy to be called a Hero, Midoriya.' She thought as she walked towards Izuku to carry him to the entrance. 

However, she was halted when 4 red Nomu-like creatures appeared and surrounded the unconscious boy in a circle? square? diamond formation. She was about to attack the creatures when said creatures looked at her direction, growling and assuming a protective stance over Izuku's body.

She was confused at first, but looking at how the creatures were looking at her it clicked! 'These creatures?! They belong to Midoriya!' Midnight then decided to back away slightly giving the Nomu-like figures and Izuku space. Said creatures looked at her intently before looking back at Izuku and bowed in front of him? 

Before Midnight knew it, the creatures turned into mass of flesh and began to look like black and red tendrils and were melting into the boy's body like water to a sponge. After 2 or 3 minutes the creatures vanished completely only leaving Izuku all alone with the 18+ hero.

Confusion and relief surrounded the pro hero as she walked toward the vulnerable body of the boy. She knelt down and carried the boy towards the staircase near the entrance of USJ. As she walked, she took a glance at the boy in her hands and was surprised to see the once decomposing arm had slowly healed on its own.

"Who are you, Izuku Midoriya?" she whispered to the unconscious teen and exited the door where the authorities are present, escorting the captured villains and doing a head count to the students who were looking winded and relieved to see the villains captured. Looking back at the students, Midnight noticed the students looked at the Blacklight user with mixed reactions.
