"Y/N! Y/N!" you hear Shoto's distraught voice call out. His blast of ice had knocked you onto the ground, the sharp pain in your hip keeping you glued in place.

"Shoto?" you called weakly from the corner. You frantically searched the room, trying to figure out where Dabi was blasted off to.

"Y/N, stay where you are" Shoto called, his voice worried but strong.

"Kinda don't have a choice" you responded in a sing song voice. "The ice trapped me"

"Oh. Sorry" Shoto muttered calmly as you heard his deep voice approaching you swiftly.

Shoto melted a thick wall of ice with his flames, and greeted you with a gentle hug.

"Hi" he said, his raspy voice slightly shaking.

You didn't exactly know how to respond, Shoto was never the affectionate type. This was probably the first time you two had ever hugged.

"Are you hurt?" he asked, scanning your body. His eyes stopped on your neck, noticing the marks Dabi had left on your soft skin. Your heart started pounding in your chest, afraid of what Shoto would say next.

"Oh my god..." he mumbled.

"Shoto, it's not-"

"They put a gag on your neck? Damn, that's cruel" he said, squeezing his eyebrows together and curling his fists. You just blankly stared at him, repressing a laugh from his innocence.

"Yeah" you said, pressing your lips together.

"Where is the league? They're being suspiciously quiet" Shoto asked.

"I don't know" you responded, shaking your head.

"They all just vanished?" Shoto placed his thumb on his chin.

"Well, no. They all left for the night and left one guy in charge" you said frantically, you're legs beginning to shake.

"What's his name?"

You widened your eyes, unsure whether or not to answer the question truthfully.

"I don't know. He didn't reveal his face either" you said, your voice shaking in guilt of your lie.

"Okay...I guess that doesn't matter right now. Let's get out of here" he muttered, grabbing your arms and pulling you out of the way you entered.

You followed his lead, too confused to reaction to anything. As Shoto pulled you out of the broken window, you turned back for a brief moment. You heard a quiet cough, and your heart dropped.

"I heard that too, but we don't have time to check it out. We never know when backup will show up"

"You're right" you said, ignoring the small noise that came from Dabi.

The glass of the broken window scratched your arms and drew blood, but you kept crawling out ignoring the pain. You had to get out of here, Dabi was effecting your thoughts and intentions.

When you finally got out of the window, you were met with the pale and worried faces of a few of your friends.

"Y/N!" Deku yelled, wrapping you in an enormous hug. "I'm so glad you're okay"

"I'm fine, guys. Don't worry" you said, plastering on a toothy smile.

"Y/N...I am so sorry" Uraraka muttered, holding in tears.

"Stop. Don't you dare apologize" you said, pulling out of Deku's hug and walking towards the dismayed small girl.

"This was all my fault, I didn't help you" she said, tears pouring out of her eyes.

"No, it's not. It's mine. I should never have ran in there without discussing it with you. It was stupid of me. Don't feel guilty, please"

Uraraka sniffled and you wiped the tears off of her smooth face. You gave her a melancholy smile and then pulled her into a hug.

"I'm so glad you're okay" she whispered.

"Y/N. I'm also happy you made it out. You're very brave, no one else would have been able to do what you did" Iida said, bowing to you.

"Brave but stupid" said Bakugo, chiming in with his usual rude remarks.

"Oh, shush, Bakugo" said Kirishima, jabbing his elbow into the blonde.

"No, he's right. It won't happen again" you muttered.

"Y/N. Don't speak of this to the teachers. Understand? They don't know about any of this, and if they find out we're all dead. Understand?" Todoroki explained, crossing his arms.

"Mhm" you said, pressing your lips together. You couldn't help but look at your friend in a different light after everything Dabi told you. He was always so strong. And now you knew why.

Your friends got a cab and you guys all crammed in and journeyed back to UA. Uraraka made you all float over the gate, and you guys made your way back to your dorms.

"Y/N, are you sure you'll be okay alone? I don't want you to be scared" Uraraka said, concerned.

"Do you know me? I don't get scared. I just learn from experiences and do better next time" you said, placing your arms on your waist.

"Alright, well you know where we are if you need anything" she mumbled, hesitantly. She left you alone in your room, and you took a seat on the bed. It was almost morning.

What a crazy night. Unlike anything that had every happened to you anymore.

You dropped onto your bed and began thinking about everything.

What side was right? Who should you believe? And if heroes were just as bad as villains...what did that make you?

Your eyes fluttered shut, and you fell into a deep sleep. You knew it wouldn't be for long, but it was necessary after the events that had just conspired.

- -
"Y/N..." a voice muttered from above you.

"Ughhh" you groaned.

"Wake up"

"I don't wanna" you whined, throwing your plush pillow over your head.

"But you have to"

"Why?"

You felt a pair of arms wrap around your body and hoist you out of your bed.

Your eyes fluttered open.

"Shoto? What are you doing? Put me down" you yelled, swatting your friend's chest.

He ignored you.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm taking you on a little trip"

"What are you talking about?"

He ignored you, and you continued to struggle but he wouldn't let go.

"SHOTO! THIS ISNT LIKE YOU!" you screamed as he took you out of the dorm.

"Because it's not me" he laughed
