On a certain island in the waters surrounding Japan, all hell has broken loose.
Deep within the forest at an abandoned shrine the ferocious, 5'0 vigilante Surtr was busy harassing a smaller bugman by carrying him by his backpack. ''You useless bug, which way to the harbor?!'' Surtr growled, shaking him violently. ''Please stop!! I'm lost too, why do you think I'd know the way?'' The sidekick Bugger pleaded. ''Please stop shaking me!'' The vigilante set him down on a rock and pointed at him. ''You're a bug, that means you know your way around the forest!'' Surtr shouted, deciding that without asking for Bugger's opinion. While Bugger weighed his options he activated a device hidden under his backpack and sent out a distress signal. ''Actually- okay that's a bit presumptuous, just because I'm a bug mutation doesn't mean- WOAH, WOAH, WOAH!'' Bugger backed up as he held his arms over his head to brace himself when Surtr threatened to punch him again. ''Show me the way!''
''Okay, okay... Um, I know a shortcut back to the harbor we just-''
''What did you just say?''
''I... Know a shortcut... Back to the harbor?''
Surtr immediately stomped up and grabbed Bugger by the throat, lifting him off the ground. ''SHORT?! ARE YOU SAYING I'M SHORT? ARE YOU LOOKING DOWN ON ME BECAUSE OF MY HEIGHT? I'M FIVE FEET OF FURY, DON'T MESS WITH ME!!!'' Spit was flying from Surtr's mouth as he yelled, squeezing Bugger until his face changed color before letting go. Amongst the vigilante group the Ragnarockers, Surtr is one of the known powerhouses who gets by on his physique alone. In close quarters combat he is almost unmatched because of his quirk.
---
Three hero students who just so happen to be nearest Bugger when he sent out the distress signal would receive it on their phones. The sidekick had hoped that his signal would reach a pro hero, but due to the efforts of the other members of the Ragnarockers hardly any had managed to reach the island yet.
Once the students arrived at the shrine they would be greeted with the scene of the dejected sidekick sitting on a rock with Surtr angrily stomping around him. ''Who're you?!'' The vigilante noticed them instantly. ''None of my people that's for damn sure! That means you gotta die!'' He lifted Bugger up by his backpack. ''Wait. hey wait don't-'' Winding up his throw, Surtr grinned like a mad man. There was something about his glowing eyes that seemed distant somehow, as if he wasn't fully in control of his own actions. ''I'll keep one of you alive, whoever lives the longest you show me the way to the harbor!'' He finally tossed Bugger directly at the group of students. ''Iyaaaaaa!! Catch me! Somebody catch me!'' The sidekick pleaded as he sailed through the air.
''Bulldozer attack, go!!'' Surtr cackled like a madman as he charged forward, attempting to tackle his way through all three students like a bowling ball aiming for a strike.
The Void TL;DR: - Surtr is lost in the woods and trying to get to the nearest harbor - Captured a sidekick named Bugger and is trying to get him to show him the way - Bugger sends out a sneaky distress signal to Jack, Khepri and Wendy who happen to be nearby - Upon entering the shrine grounds, Surtr throws Bugger at the group and charges at them, attempting to knock them all down.

"Huh?" Khepri said while looking up from their phone and blinking in surprise. 'Who are you?' That was a big question for someone that had at least three branches in their hair at the moment. "What do you mean your people?" The catbug managed to fire back just before the bugman was picked up and thrown their way. Immediately Khepri's pupils dilated, the mix of a fast-moving target and someone in harm's way triggering their instincts and turning their dial from 0 to 100 in an instant. Using their quirk to expand the muscles in their legs as they instantly dropped to a crouch they shot off like an arrow. They'd aimed so they'd fly right next to the sidekick in question instead of crashing straight into him. With an arm extended to the side they'd arrest his momentum causing both of them to spin should they succeed in their endeavor. Mid-spin Khepri would glance back at their friend. "Wendy, catch!" They'd shout right before letting go so the sidekick would fly at them. They had full faith Wendy would be able to safely catch him after all. The rest of their momentum should carry the catbug to the side of a tree from which they'd be able to kick off again and get right back into the fray. Of course, that was only if they succeeded. If they missed, well, perhaps they could get a swipe off at Surtr before crashing into the abandoned shrine.

1IN YOUR EYES
When was told that she was to shadow someone today. When she asked for elaboration, the teacher pointed in the direction of the student she was supposed to be following but from Wendys perspective it looked like she was pointing at Khepri. Well, if that was what they wanted her to do then she would follow them like a shadow would and took that quite literally silently following them everywhere. Which was exactly how she ended up on an island in Tokyo.
"Uhm Khepri? Is this part of the tour?" Clearly, she didn't understand that they had not only strayed from campus, but they weren't even remotely close to it anymore. Oh, and somehow, they had crossed the water and were now face-to-face with a "criminal." She would make her presence known by bending down and gently tapping Khepri on the shoulder. "Khepri, is this a friend of yours? Do they need directions?" She would stand back to her full height and slowly turn her head from side to side, an empty expression on her face as she started to realize this was a place she didn't recognize. Turning back to the boat, she'd tap Khepri again. "Actually...where are we?"
Any more info wasn't really possible as Khepri rocketed forward to catch the person and then immediately pivoted to Wendy being on the receiving end. She braced herself, "Oh, okay!" Planting her feet, she would attempt to catch the flying man and then would remark, "Are you okay? Why did your friend throw you?" Then it clicked. "Oh, sorry! We should get moving. There's a boat over there. I'll take you." She gave her best reassuring smile and then turned to run as best as she could back to where they came from.

How come Jack always found himself in situations like this? Seriously, why can't he get a more simple villain to deal with once in a while? Like a cat burglar that was actually a cat or something?
He touched down on the beach of the island, stretching a little bit as he got readjusted to land. He had been sailing around the area on his own speedboat, mainly just doing a minor patrol of the area due to everything that had been going on. Better safe than sorry to at least make sure no one was going to try and cause trouble for anyone wanting to explore.
That being said, getting sent a distress signal at all wasn't exactly a good sign by any means. Touching his fingers to his earphone, he'd confirm his presence in the area. "This is Sirius, responding to a distress signal near Niijima Island. More than likely someone just got stuck, I'd wager." Hearing the static for a moment, he'd quickly get a response. "Noted, Sirius! Stay safe, and let us know if you need backup!" the voice chirped, making Jack smile a bit.
Cracking his knuckles, Jack wouldn't waste any more time as he flung his Vine Whips towards a couple of trees, launching himself into the sky and gliding towards the distress signal! Flapping his wings, Jack kept his eyes on the ground to see if anything caught his attention.
...Well. He got what he was looking for quickly.
His eyes would widen as he quickly came across the scene of infamous Vigilante Surtr, along with the sidekick who sent the distress signal and...oh, Jesus. He recognized Khepri, but the other girl he couldn't say he knew all that well. He would grit his teeth, charging up Chaos Energy in his feet, launching himself at Surtr the moment he started to charge at the students!
Aiming to intercept his charge, Jack would try to deliver a swift strike to Surtr's jaw! At the very least, he hoped to disrupt his charge enough to where he'd just end up crashing away from everyone. At best, hopefully he knocked him a fair distance away! At least enough for Jack to quickly regain his footing, a scowl on his face as he cursed himself for finding himself in another situation like this.
A quick glare was sent at Khepri, Wendy and Bugger. "Either get behind me or get moving, now!" he snapped, letting Chaos Energy swarm around him as he returned his glare towards Surtr. "What, having a bad day there, hothead?" he said, at least trying to keep his attention on Jack. He really had a bad feeling about this one...

''You tryin' to outsmart me? Forget I said anything about people! I work alone!!'' Surtr growled at Khepri, clearly not happy at the fact that he had been caught oversharing. Not that it would matter. Once he yeeted this sidekick at them it would be all too easy to just kill all of them and erase any evidence that he had snitched! ''You're no friends of mine!'' He shouted back at Wendy, the nerve on that girl!
Bugger practically had tears streaming down his face when Khepri caught him. ''T-Thank you so much..'' He was shaking and crying, looking up at Khepri when he realized what they had just said to one of their friends.
"Wendy, catch!"
Then he was sent flying again, screaming as he sailed through the air. ''I-I'm okay!'' Bugger blurted out as Wendy caught him. ''He's not my friend, uh long story short I was picking herbs in the forest and- huh? Wait no, no, no! We can't leave, tall lady!'' He waved his arms in protest. ''That guy... He's bad news. His quirk it...''
As Surtr charged forward he felt great about his own power. All this catbug could do was a little scratch? Heh, no problem for him he barely felt-
All at once, moving around at the speed of sound, some little dragon bastard came flying right at him, slamming him so hard that his charge was not only halted, but he was sent flying back into the tree line and buried in a cloud of dust. ''Me? Bad day?'' Surtr cackled from within the dust cloud. ''Nah fam, I'm feeling fucking fantastic! That pain hurt me real good.'' Stepping out into view once more, Surtr had gotten back up to his feet and not only was there no sign of damage on his body after their attacks, but he had grown from the size of 5 foot to 10 foot tall. ''Allow me to pay you back, tenfold!'' He cracked his knuckles, before punching himself in the face. Cackling all the while, he punched himself once more so his arms could grow longer, abnormally long, so long that he would easily be able to reach all of these little twerps in one go.
''YOU ALL DIED THE MOMENT YOU CAME ACROSS ME!'' He shouted at the top of his lungs as he readied his fists, before throwing out a barrage of punches, aiming to try and overwhelm not just Jack, but Khepri and Wendy too with his punches. None of these kids were going to live after standing up to him, and that pink coward was definitely not going anywhere, not unless she could show him the way back to the harbor!
''Take this, my Eat Shit and Die Rush Attack!!'' He screamed as he threw out a storm of punches.
The Void TL;DR: - Surtr is still pissed - Bugger doesn't want to leave with Wendy, eludes to the nature of Surtr's power and warns her he is dangerous - Khepri and Jack both hit Surtr, but their hits seemingly do little to no damage at all. Surtr has also doubled in size since before he was hit - Vowing payback, Surtr hits himself in the face to make his arms grow so long that he can reach all of the students - With his long arms, Surtr attempts to beat everyone up with a flurry of punches

1IN YOUR EYES
Wendy may have been slow on her feet but she was sturdy. She didn't know the smaller guy but Khepri was someone she could count on and even if she couldn't, for some reason, she didn't really have much of an option. It wasn't like Wendy knew how to fight even if she wanted to. The best she could do was try to hold him down. "It's okay they can do it I know they can. I'm supposed to get you to safety...I think." She got lost in thought as Khepri did just say to catch but didn't say what to do when she caught her. Was she supposed to stand there and wait? She stopped running and turned back to Khepri. "Khepri, was I supposed to run? or catch?" Much to the possible horror of the person she was saving it was an important question to know.
This sudden stop did let Wendy see what Surtr was up to. She marveled as she saw him increase in size, going from nearly two feet smaller than her to almost four feet taller. She had never seen anything like that. Could people change their size? ...Could she change her size? It was all a lot to think about and definitely something she would have to ask Michael and Yoko about later.
The rush attack came out of nowhere, and Wendy would turn and place down the person she saved to protect them from the incoming assault. The strikes hit their mark, and Wendy's body responded how it usually did, the blows rebounding off of her body as some of the clay that made up her form was displaced. Otherwise, she was fine, and as if nothing happened, she would bend down to check on the civilian "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
tl;dr Wendy stopped her run and took all the blows from Surtr which rebounded because of her quirk.

"Yes," Khepri replied with full confidence. A tour was something where you visited different places after all and this absolutely was a different place. Khepri had no idea where it even was! "I think so," they added in response to both of Wendy’s next questions. Strangers were just friends you hadn’t met yet after all and this guy sure was strange. "The present!" They managed to answer just before dropping into a crouch and firing away. There was no better time for it than that after all. Once their leg made contact with the tree they nodded to themself. Wendy had managed to catch the sidekick. They hadn't expected any less. Ever since this morning Khepri had been reading the eBook 'European Weapons & Warfare, 1618 - 1648' and they'd only stopped when they looked up from their phone just now. The knowledge on siege equipment and ballistics they'd learned from it and internet searches whenever they needed elaboration on something was still fresh in their mind. There were no way they'd misjudged that throw. "I got moving now!" They shouted back to the other student they recalled from Stellar's class, the guy that was never joking and that had just sent their opponent into the treeline. Khepri's eyes widened in realization when Surtr reappeared. The saying was true! The harder they fall the bigger they are. That was the plan then. They had to stop him from falling down. As a prospective rescue hero that was a job right up Khepri's alley! A gasp escaped them when Surtr punched himself in the face. Down was relative. When on Earth it was relative to the center of the planet, when in space it was relative to the nearest source of gravity or entirely nonexistent, left solely up to one's own perception. The problem was that everyone was always in space so down was just a matter of perspective. That had to be what Surtr was making use of. His quirk made him grow whenever he went down so if he made his own vision swim it'd change his perception to the point that he could be upside down several times without moving! They had to stop him, fast. "Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!" Khepri shouted at Surtr before their eyes widened once more. "Wait no, not like that!"
They couldn't get anything else out before having to react to the incoming barrage. Khepri had been training for this. Well, situations like this. They hadn't been training for a situation where a five foot guy suddenly grew to ten feet, elongated his arms and sent out a barrage of attacks. That was number 214 on their contingency list and they were only on training to deal with situation 73. But they digressed. They'd been training to counter precise strikes and they intended to put that training to use. The first punch they managed to parry with their right arm, Surtr's fist grinding against their exoskeleton as they redirected its momentum, sending it into the tree next to them. Khepri gulped when they heard the sound of shattering wood and the crater left behind. The time the first parry bought let Khepri swell the muscles in their left arm and counter his second punch with one of their own. Their strength wasn't quite enough to counter all of it but most of the force was lost, only pushing the catbug back two steps. Oh bother. They needed the legs that had just taken those two steps to counter his next blow. A sharp crack so intense it sounded almost like metal shattering rang out as Khepri was punched right in the chest and sent flying, disappearing into the treeline not unlike Surtr had not too long ago.
TL;DR: -Khepri talks shit. -Khepri gets hit. -3v1 is (temporarily) promoted to 2v1, gl hf Tags: Wendy, Jack Orion, Fanthes

Now Playing: Devil TriggerJack gave a bit of a sideways grin at Surtr's response. Christ Almighty, even he could tell that the guy was a complete psychopath. He thought this guy was meant to be a vigilante, not a full on villain? Then again, if you're crazy enough to try and fight crime without any sort of actual training, maybe you did have a few screws loose. Not that it mattered in the long run. Criminal was a criminal, unless you really had a good reason for doing what you did. Even then, the lines were all just shades of grey at best. This guy was probably very far on the darker shades, though. He whistled a little bit at his size change, looking him up and down. "Sheesh, I think everyone can tell you're compensating for something there, big guy!" he taunted, already in a fighting pose and ready to dodge whatever came his way. Then the guy started to punch himself in the face over and over again, giving Jack a good idea between that and the initial size change on how this guy's Quirk worked. Admittedly, this made things a lot more difficult - though it just meant this guy had to have a limit at some point, too. It was just harder to get there than most, that's all. As Surtr began his assault, Jack would quickly released a burst of Chaos Energy from his feet, again launching himself high up into the air, somersaulting over the vigilante! "That's the worst name for an attack I've heard in my life, and I've heard some pretty shitty names! You even trying at this point?" he hollered, aiming a couple of fingers towards his back, firing off a couple more blasts! If they connected, they would likely again cause him to be sent back, if maybe less than before, given the size change. Taking the moment to survey what all had just transpired, he grit his teeth as he realized Khepri got knocked away a fair amount, leaving him, the pink haired girl and Bugger in the immediate vicinity. "Seriously, you two need to get Khepri and get out of here! Get to the shore, I'll buy you as much time as I can!" he hollered, putting his fingers up again to his earpiece. "This is Sirius, please come in! We've got the vigilante Surtr going on a rampage out here, we need an evac squad ASAP!!!" he said, praying to whatever God was listening that people would get here quick.
Tl;dr -Jack would blast off over Surtr, attempting to avoid the attack and fire off a couple more shots to his back in the process. -Realized Khepri got yeeted, cursed internally -Yelled at Wendy and Bugger to grab Khepri and get to the coast, trying to buy them time -Attempted to call for an evacuation squad, hoping that there would be some sort of help on it's way

He grinned wickedly at Khepri. ''You really don't get it, do ya? With the types of quirks you have you're not going to be able to stop me. It's a bad match up, sucks to be you!'' He was surprised that Wendy was able to tank his hits like that, but it was only a matter of time before she would crumble and surrender to him. Khepri made a valiant effort to parry his attack, but was eventually sent flying too. ''Compensating?'' He turned his attention to Jack. This little dragon guy fancied himself a main character. His kind was always the most fun to break. Not just physically, he was going to demolish his spirit. ''If you want my comeback you'll have to ask your mom!'' He watched closely as Jack blasted off and took to the skies. ''Got anything better? Let's hear some of your attacks!'' Surtr cackled, not even moving an inch from the blasts he received to his back from Jack. In fact, Surtr wasn't even trying to dodge any attack that was directed at him. ''By all means, feed me more, idiot!'' His size increased again growing from 10 feet to 20 feet tall.
''Buying time, eh? Do you seriously think your friends are safe, even if they make a run for it?'' He narrowed his eyes at Jack, who the hell gave that runt an earpiece, was he actually able to signal for backup?
''T-Tall lady!! I'm okay!'' Bugger exclaimed as Wendy took the hits for him, swiftly taking off his backpack. ''Are you hurt? Stay right there I'll patch you up!'' Taking herbs out of his pouch he mixed them together in one of the backpack pockets, adding a rock and a bird's feather as well, before pulling and turning a crank on the side of the backpack. With a ding! like an oven that had finished cooking, a piece of apple pie popped out and into his hands. ''Here, eat this, eat this!'' If Wendy complied, despite having handled Surtr's attack very well, she would start to feel refreshed and energized. ''B-Better? Eek! He grew again!''
Static would come in through Jack's earpiece as a voice finally broke through. ''Helloooo.'' It was a new voice, one he didn't recognize but they sounded nonchalant. ''Is this the pizza place? I'd like to place an order. No? Oh, you have an emergency.'' The sound of papers being shuffled could be heard. ''That's tough bud. Listen, I don't know what happened to your allies, I could have killed them or maybe someone else did, maybe they ran away, but I have their equipment and your call is going through to me.'' There was a moment's pause as the person turned another page. ''You said you're fighting Surtr? Maaan that's some bad luck you've got there. I can't send an evac, no can do. So the best advice I can give you is uhhh, try not to get killed?'' The person cleared their throat. ''But hey, if it's any consolation, if you do fail and die a horrible and slow death, I'll come over and kill Surtr myself. So like, you kind of succeeded, kind of. You know, no loss of civilian life or anything like that. You don't owe me for that by the way, that's a little gift from me to UAU.'' Another voice identical to the one Jack was hearing through the earpiece said something in the background, but it was too quiet to make out. ''What's that? They found it? About time, I was starting to get really bored. Hey champ, I gotta go. Thanks for the talk. I don't usually get to talk to people for very long like this, most of the time they just scream and beg for their lives, but you didn't, so... Thanks!'' The feed cut abruptly. Any attempt to contact others going forward would be met with silence.
''Oi, oi, oi! Think you can just stop attacking me? Mind your manners, boy!'' Surtr shouted at Jack, ripping a tree out of the ground with one hand to toss at him at high speed, trying to knock Jack out of the sky. He didn't see where Khepri went exactly, but if they were already dead that meant he only had to deal with two of them. ''You're next!'' He roared at Wendy. ''They called you Wendy?'' He uprooted another tree with ease, swinging it at her like he was wielding a giant club in an attempt to flatten her. ''I think you should change your name to WEN-DIE!!!'' Bugger in his ever helpful nature took out a jug of water... How did that even fit in his backpack? Nevertheless, before he could offer Wendy a sip, the vibrations from Surtr moving around caused him to spill it all over Wendy. ''Aaah sorry!!''
The Void TL;DR: - Surtr mocks the three hero students, hits Jack with a your mom joke - Bugger tries to help heal Wendy with his quirk after she shielded him by offering her a slice of apple pie - Surtr grows from 10 to 20 feet - A mysterious voice picks up Jack's evac call, no reinforcements are coming and all connection through comms have been cut - Surtr attacks once more, throwing a tree at Jack to try and knock him out of the sky, before turning to Wendy whom he tries to club to death with another tree, but not before Bugger accidentally spills water on her

1IN YOUR EYES
As she reconstituted herself after taking the strikes, picking up any spilled clay and placing it back on her body it would merge with her form and bring her back to her normal look. "Tall Lady...?" Wendy wasn't used to being called lady since in the eyes of the government and teachers she was a literal child. She looked around, confused, before settling on Bugger still looking at her, and the realization hit her. "Oh, you mean me??? I'm Wendy, not Tall Lady. I don't really nee-" her confusion grew as she watched Bugger make something and offer it to her. Since it was rude to not accept it she did eat it and was pleasantly surprised - it was sweet!
Chewing it and swallowing to not talk with her mouthful. "Thank you for the food," she'd give a slight bow in spite of the situation on remembering that she needed to stay alert when Bugger pointed out that Surtr grew again. It sparked a thought in Wendy which was very very rare given who she was, couldn't she do something like that? Whenever she lost clay, she would shrink, and if she added clay...
She just needed to find some extra clay. Bending down and looking around, she moved some small rocks and sticks to check if there was any clay around here. With her entirely focused on the task, she missed what Surtr had said, only realizing what was going on when the vibrations of him moving caused her to fall and then doused with water thanks to Bugger. "It's okay I think we need to get you to safety." she sat and shook out her arms the jug of water causing them to swell...wait...SHE was clay!
As the tree came down, she snapped back into focus, gasping at the sight, which in turn caused her own torso to inflate. The combination of water + extra air seemed to do the trick. Embracing this, she would inhale deeply as her body mass increased until she was basically round and had doubled in size herself. From there, she would brace herself for the impact. Hopefully, this would stop Surtr from squishing them!
tl;dr Wendy is dumb. Wendy gets covered in water and accidentally discovers more properties of her quirk. She turns into a big clay ball to defend against Surtr.

Khepri grinned right back. Those were a lot of words he was using to try and convince and discourage them. Especially coming from a guy that had just finished punching himself in the face. Returning to the fray within seconds of being tossed into the treeline the catbug smiled happily. "I'm fine!" Reaching into their shirt they rummaged for a second, a shape within shifting before they managed to clasp it in their hand and pull it out. "My frying pan took the hit!""Yes! Also yes! Not in that order though!" Khepri shouted back at Wendy's question. There was no way they'd make it in time to stop the tree from hitting her but seeing Wendy swell Khepri had full confidence that she'd be fine. Airbags were meant to handle impacts. That left them with some time to figure out what to do about the demon that- Hold on, had it doubled in size again? "Stop getting hit!" Khepri shouted at Surtr before an idea occurred to them. "Jack Orion! Get the shimenawa! I need to check if the shrine has a basement!"As fast as they could Khepri sped up, trying to get inside of the abandoned building and find a way down. It was a long shot but if their theory was correct they might just get out of here alive.
TL;DR: -Khepri returns mostly unharmed -Replies to Wendy telling her to catch and run -Shouts at Surtr to stop getting hit -Shouts at Jack to get the shimenawa -Goes to check if the shrine has a basement: Tags: Wendy, Jack Orion, Fanthes

"Y'know, I'd ask if you were a child, but ya kinda look like an ugly kaiju baby so I guess that one tracks!" Jack retorted, his smile not faltering even for a moment. As he fired his shots at him, he even smirked confidently. "Clearly someone doesn't know how gravity tends to work with heavy objects..." he muttered, a plan slowly forming in his mind. If his assumptions were right, he would theoretically become so heavy that if he got into the water, he'd just sink instantly. At least, that was his current idea.
As he would try to call for backup, his smile would falter for a moment as the response he got wasn't exactly what he wanted. His eye twitched a little bit, deciding not to buy into the guy's crap. That said, it did bring a darker thought to the back of his mind - definitely enough of one to bring up to the higher ups once this was all said and done. Not if- when. He's dealt with worse than an overgrown sentai monster reject. Even if he did want to throw every single slur in every language he knew in that moment.
He'd quickly blow himself off to the side as Surtr hurled a tree at him, cocking his head off to the side. "Shit, you're a terrible aim, too. Between that and the whole 'attacking random people' thing, you REALLY just suck at being a vigilante dontcha?" He kept his cool, not letting anything really get to him in that moment. That was kinda part of the job of being a hero - a mistake he admittedly made in the past, more than once.
He almost did it again when Khepri decided to do the one thing you're not supposed to do, and just outright say a guy's full name in front of a literal fucking psychopath. "Dunno if you're referring to me, cat girl, but that ain't the name! Name's Sirius, keep it memorized!" he replied, though he did still follow through with her request before he let the topic linger too much.
He was probably going to beat her over the head later though for that one.
Blasting off towards the shrine, Jack would keep an eye on Surtr, trying to be mindful of any attack he may try to throw their way. As he got to the shrine, he would grab the shimenawa on the way back, at least trying to not use so much force that it completely tore off. Wasn't exactly trying to destroy the shrine after all, but...well, he also didn't have high hopes for it either.
Tl;Dr -Retorted at the 'your mom' joke -Started to think of a plan with how Surtr's Quirk seems to work -Got interrupted by Khepri using his real name, quickly shooting that thought down -Still followed through with her idea, curious to see what she had in mind -Doubtful, though -

''Noo Wendy!!'' Bugger cried as Surtr attacked her. However, just as it looked like she was about to be squished, Wendy swelled and grew dramatically, making the tree Surtr was using as a club bounce off her completely and fly back into his own face, causing him to stagger backwards with a small. ''Ow!'' Rubbing his forehead he glared down at the pink-haired menace. Here he thought she was completely defenseless. Had he underestimated these little shits? Surely not! Surtr was never wrong, he was always right about everything! Surtr number one, UAU students are all losers!! ''W-Wendy, how?'' Bugger asked in disbelief, just as shocked as the deranged vigilante they were fighting.
Oh well, at least with Khepri dead all he had to do was catch Jack. If only it was that simple. Looking over at Khepri his expression further soured when they pulled out a frying pan. ''YOUR WHAT?! WHAT ARE YOU, A CARTOON CHARACTER??'' Oh, and his tree toss missed Jack too, and now the little bastard was taunting him again. It was like the students weren't taking him seriously at all! Just running a competition to see who could piss him off the most. Kids these days! ''I'LL SHOW YOU GRAVITY, YOU RUNT! AT LEAST MY QUIRK IS A TRANSFORMATION TYPE, BET YOU LOOK LIKE THAT ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, MUTANT!'' Surtr was clearly getting flustered at the fact that crushing these newbies wasn't as easy as he had expected. For him to grow to 20 feet and still not be pulling a decisive victory... What a disgrace!
''Stop getting hit?'' He repeated Khepri's words, grinning menacingly at them. ''Oh, you don't like that do ya? Sure would be terrible if I told ya I could grow even taller!'' He balled his hands into fists and started punching himself again, this time staggering and actually taking damage from each hit. It was hard to tell due to the sheer defensive power of his quirk, but Surtr was getting more tired.
He had also, however, now grown from 20 to 40 feet tall.
Spitting out a bit of blood Surtr raised his arms above his head and cackled so loudly that the trees of the forest shook. ''SO THAT'S IT! WENDY AND JACK ORION, HUH? I'LL REMEMBER YOUR NAMES!'' He turned his gaze towards Khepri. ''MAYBE YOU'LL SAY THE NAME OF THE CAT HERE IF I KILL THEM FIRST!'' He raised his foot and tried to stomp on Khepri then and there. Rather than check whether he even got the little catbug he immediately turned his attention to Wendy and... Where did the lizard go? ''TAKE THIS, YOU FREAK!'' He roared at Wendy as he threw a fist her way, attempting to overpower her clay quirk.
''YOU'RE MAKING THIS A REAL PAIN ON ME, BUT YOU GAVE ME AN IDEA!'' He squatted down, bending his knees as he barred his fangs in a smile. ''I'LL KILL YOU ALL WITH ONE ATTACK, MY ULTIMATE MOVE!'' The ground trembled and shook violently as Surtr jumped high up into the sky, almost as if he was as light as a feather and that was despite the fact that he clearly weighed a lot in his growing form. ''YOU'VE PUSHED MY BUTTONS, SO NOW I'LL TEAR THIS ISLAND ASUNDER!'' Diving head first he lead his all-or-nothing dive with his fist.
''RAGING ABYSS: EXTERMINATE!!''
With little time to react, what would the students do? Take cover while sticking to their plan, try to mitigate the damage of his attack at their own expense, or be too slow to react and get caught in the ensuing blast?
The Void TL;DR: - Surtr is getting increasingly exasperated with everyone managing to survive his attacks - Jack gets on his nerves so badly that he calls him a mutant (derogatory) - Surtr grows from 20 to 40 feet tall - Surtr revels in knowing Wendy and Jack Orion's names, tries to stomp on Khepri to kill them and get the others to scream their name too - Surtr tries to punch Wendy and calls her a freak - Surtr didn't see where in the shrine Jack went due to his size increase - Surtr decides to go all-or-nothing on his next attack, unleashing his ultimate move, Raging Abyss: Exterminate, by jumping up into the air and using his massive size to slam down on the island, threatening to destroy everything and everyone - Will the students take cover, stay in the impact zone, or try to mitigate the damage? The fight is nearing its conclusion and if they can weather their storm their plan just might work out...

Jack's grin simply grew in response to Surtr's clear annoyance. "What's wrong? Starting to strike a nerve? At least I know how to rock this look, day in and day out! I don't wanna imagine what you're hiding under than ugly mug of yours! Must be bad enough you wanna hide it behind something...well, something at least better by comparison!" he quipped. Honestly, did he think a Quirkist remark was going to phase him in the slightest? He was a mutant - those kinds of comments always came with everyday life. 'Sides, he knew he looked good. At least good enough to land someone pretty attractive in his eyes, at least. Making a B-line for the shimenawa while Surtr got distracted with Wendy, he would slightly growl to himself as Surtr repeated his name. Yeah, no, he was going to be smacking the crap out of that cat-girl later. That was just pure dumbassery that could get someone hurt, or worse. Oh, well. If he was going to know his name... He'll make damn sure he remembers it. As Surtr made his sudden proclamation, Jack realized quick he had to do something then and there. "Whatever you're planning Khepri...I hope this works! Gotta buy you some time!" he said to himself, quickly rushing back up into the fray! Watching Surtr blast himself up into the air, Jack couldn't help but get a sense of deja vu. "Huh. Usually that's something I would do." he said, seeming nonchalant about the whole situation externally, but internally he could feel his heart beating inside of his chest rapidly. Now Playing: UndefeatableTime slowed to a crawl, Jack taking in the situation. Two students and a sidekick who had all been taking a beating up to this point, and a whole island that was about to be decimated by this guy's attack. Unless they could figure something out in time, all that really stood in the way of destruction was...him. A rookie, not even fully licensed hero. Honestly, he really was starting to question how he kept finding himself in these situations, especially so early into just being at UAU, in hindsight. "...Well, can't let it end here, either way!"As Surtr would barrel back down towards the island, a surge of Chaos Energy would erupt from below as Jack began to unleash as much power as he could possibly muster in that moment! A golden light surged in the middle, the young dragon taking a deep breath as he would look up, simply smirking in the face of certain death if he failed. Hardly the first time, but still. Jack would quickly shoot himself upwards towards Surtr, gathering up all of his energy into his fist. "YOU WANTED ONE OF MY MOVES BEFORE, RIGHT?! HERE'S ONE YOU WON'T FORGET!" He exclaimed, rearing his fist back, and taking one last deep breath, keeping himself calm, before... "CHAOS FIRE!!!!"Jack would thrust his fist forward, unleashing a gigantic torrent of Chaos Energy towards Surtr! To onlookers, it would probably just look like a basic stream of cosmic energy. To those close enough, especially Surtr, though, it would look as if a dragon made up of pure energy was hurtling right towards him at top speed! If it connected properly, it would send shockwaves all around the area, from what would be sure to be a clash of epic proportions!
Tl;dr! -Jack again taunted at Surtr's rather 'Quirkist' response, before continuing to aid Khepri's plan. -Realized really fast that something needed to be done, or the area, and by extension them, would be toast. -Mustered up every ounce of energy he possibly could in that moment to hopefully buy Wendy and Khepri time to do whatever they could think of. -Launched himself towards Surtr, improvising a super move on the fly and potentially clashing with the titan. -Undefeatable.mp3

"I DON'T THINK I'M A CARTOON CHARACTER BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TELL SINCE MOST CARTOON CHARACTERS DON'T KNOW EITHER! WHY ARE WE YELLING?!" Khepri shouted back at Surtr. Their earlier words didn't seem to be getting through. It was like bashing your head against the wall or getting punched repeatedly in the face. Huh, was that what he felt like? "NO! IT'S NOT TERRIBLE! KEEP EXPLAINING WHAT YOU CAN DO!" Wait a second... Cartoon villains always explained their powers and monologued in weird ways. Was this stranger self-projecting? Khepri had never met a cartoon character before except for that one time so they weren't sure whether he was one but if so that meant their plan would be even more effective than expected. A giant rope was the best way to capture a villain like that. "I know names are serious, that's why I always remember them in full!" Khepri yelled back at Jack with a nod and a much less predatory smile than they'd aimed at Surtr. "THAT'S SURPRISINGLY THOUGHTFUL OF YOU, EXCEPT FOR WANTING TO KILL ME BUT NO ONE'S PERFECT! HE ALREADY SAID MY NAME," Khepri shouted back once more, suddenly far less certain of his promise to remember them. They themself had been flying at the time Jack had said it and even still they'd heard and remembered. "IT'S KHEPRI, NOT VERY NICE TO MEET YOU WHAT'S YOUR NAME? I'LL REMEMBER IT TOO!"
A quirk boosted leap narrowly allowed them to not be crushed underfoot, the rushed motion causing them to tumble head over heel towards the shrine. Righting themself they dashed inside, passing Jack on the way and darting their eyes left and right. There! A trapdoor. Unless this shrine had a proclivity for spike traps that likely meant it had a basement, now all they had to do wa- Huh, what was that shout they just heard. Ultimate move? Dust fell down from the ceiling due to the sheer force of the earth shaking. That couldn't be good. Rushing back out they grabbed the other end of the shimenawa and crouched down to leap with their full force behind it. The nails holding it to the shrine looked rusty and the shrine looked old. With some luck they'd be able to tear it free mid leap and bring it along. Just in case though they kept a loose grip on it. Succeeding in getting out of the trajectory of the growing shadow up above was far more important than bringing the rope along. "Wendy! Take cover!" Khepri shouted right before leaping full force at her and Bugger to cover the distance as quickly as possible. It was time for Khepri to listen to their own advice. With how fast they were going they were sure they could catch up to the sound of their words and do so. The moment they'd reach Wendy the catbug would follow her and try to survive the blow however they could. Today wasn't a good day to die. They hadn't even told Yoko yet that- Huh. Told her what? As the shadow began to shrink again Khepri realized that was a thought for another time.
TL;DR: -Khepri engages in a friendly shouting match with Surtr and politely introduces themself once more since he didn't catch it the first time. -Informs Jack that they fully understood what he was saying. Spoiler warning: They didn't. -Checks for a basement and has their plan interrupted by a sudden shout, earthquake and ominous feeling of 'oh shit I'm going to die' -Leaps towards Wendy and shouts for her to take cover -Absolutely triggers no death flags on the way shut up Tags: Jack Orion, Wendy, Fanthes
