Love without Boundaries

Patience in Anger

Meanwhile, the door which led to the Shie Hassaikai's lounge swung wide open. There entered the leader of the League of Villains: Tomura Shigaraki. Inside the lounge, sat both Overhaul and one of the members of the yakuza: Mimic.

"You know it pisses me off when you drive my patience, Overhaul." Shigaraki mentioned.
"Patience is a virtuous thing any human being should practice on." Overhaul commented.
"Really? Then you're driving mine towards hell if this serum you're working on is taking too damn long."
"It needs to be perfected. If rushed, then the serum will not work properly."
"And since you should already know that," Mimic added, "then why are you here?"

A smile was shown through the hand mask of Tomura Shigaraki. To anyone's eyes who seen him like that, it wasn't a good sign at all.

"Wait. What do you mean she's in trouble?" Mirio asked in such concern.
"Exactly what I meant, Mirio. My quirk activated in response while we were discussing about this matter."

"Then we have to save H/N right away! If we make it before the attack, them maybe she'll-"

Sir Nighteye slammed his right hand as hard as he could towards his desk.

"Mirio! We cannot allow our emotions effect us in any way."
"But sir... H/N is apart of the agency. Shouldn't we just-"
"Haste won't help the situation at hand. We must take time to formulate a strategy. If we rush things like this, there will be dangerous consequences that could effect us all."

Mirio couldn't believe his ears.
His mentor.
The one who trained him for a year.
Just told him to not go after her.

If they wait a minute longer, then she'll end up either dead in an instant or captured alive until they dispose of her. Sir noticed his despair and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Don't get me wrong. I want to save her as much as you do, Mirio, but we can't risk going in blindly. Besides, H/N is strong. She'll survive. I just know it."

Mirio simply turned his face to the side as he was feeling depressed with this answer.

"If I may," Midoriya spoke, "can't we at least investigate her home and see what may have happened to the situation?"

Sir Nighteye, sighing at this green haired child, knew he had a point. If there's any evidence that may lead them towards me, it would make the progress a bit faster.

"Very well." Sir Nighteye agreed. "You and Mirio go. Report any findings through phone and I'll work my way through here."
"Yes sir!" both Mirio and Midoriya said in unison.

Minutes passed, they both made it to my location, but the results were too drastic to even comprehend. If the two could be able to describe the devastation of what was once her home, it wouldn't escaped from their lips.

"They really did a number on-" Midoriya started to say as he realized Mirio, frowning in despair.

Not once has Midoriya ever seen Mirio in this type of emotional state before. Midoriya cleared his throat and came close to Mirio.

"Don't worry," Midoriya spoke with some comfort, "we're going to find her again."

Mirio smiled a bit and started to look around. All they could find in this debris was her broken cell phone, her book of spells, and the laptop with the hero networking site on. Then, just when he was about to turn, Mirio then spotted the chain located near her laptop.

"I don't remember seeing this before." Mirio thought as he examined the chain carefully.

He then recalled the events which occurred when he went to save Y/N from Overhaul. She found something on the ground. This keychain was only proving Mirio that Overhaul may not be trusted as such. With such hatred, he grabbed hold of my gift so tightly in his hand.

"Overhaul..." He muttered in frustration.
"Did you find anything?" Midoriya asked.
"No." Mirio lied as he placed the chain back in his pocket. "Anyways, let's give our report back with Sir."

Midoriya glanced towards Mirio with such concern in his eyes. He knows how important I've been to him, but feeling such distress towards me was not something Mirio could be.

"It's okay if you want to talk about it, Mirio." assured Midoriya. "Iida felt the same way you felt for Y/N when his brother was hurt. I just don't want you to end up in that same path."
"Appreciate it, Midoriya." Mirio said with an assuring smile. "I'm sure I can manage."

Mirio then contacted Sir Nighteye with the update as Midoriya continued to investigate. It just didn't add up. If Overhaul wanted to hurt the angelic hero, then why did he offer to talk with them earlier? Was it because of them that caused her to lose her life?

"No! Don't think things like that!" Midoriya reminded himself. "I know she's alive. She's strong. We just need to think of a way to save her."

He then tried to think of how this amount of damage could effect this room alone when there's no other damages around the surrounding area. According to what Sir Nighteye told them when he started the agency, Overhaul had the ability to change objects from solid to liquid and vice versa by one touch. However, if Overhaul was the one who attacked her, then there would've been evidence of some sort left at the crime scene. Just as he went out to the windows, he noticed something else.

"Mirio," Midoriya called out, "I think you need to see this."

Mirio, still on the phone with Sir Nighteye, looked towards the window, realizing a strong fire spreading rapidly throughout the entire park.

"Sir," Mirio replied.
"What's wrong?" Sir asked.

Mirio told Sir Nighteye exactly what they're seeing in front of them. Sir Nighteye, however, didn't respond for a few short minutes. To hear those words come from his pupil's lips was heart wrenching.

"What now, Sir?"
"Return to the agency immediately." Sir commanded as he ended the call.

It was one of the most devastating things the two heroes ever witnessed in their internships. The angelic hero H/N is considered either missing or dead, Overhaul may be considered as a victim, and there was no doubt in their minds that bad things would begin to happen like this in their future. Or so they have believed.
