Izuku was standing on Uraraka's side, overwatching her sleeping figure silently like he was a guard in a museum. He saw Aizawa coming closer to her, presumably to check her condition, and was relieved to see that the man seemed relaxed while checking her up. He kneeled down in front of her and put his ear and where her heart was supposed to be and a small smile made its way to his face as he heard the rhythmical bumping.

He quickly stood up, facing to the direction where a camera was, whose propose was to overlook the area. Putting one hand on a strange device residing to his ear, he started talking. "All Might can you hear me?". "Yes I can. Tell me, how is young Uraraka!?". "She is going to be alright, don't worry. But I need you to call Recovery Girl immediately. She will need medical attention" "Alright".

The homeroom teacher turned back toward the girl and signed, moving his head left and right disapprovingly. "You are going to be a bigger problem than problem child was". Izuku had to hold himself from breaking into a full out laugh right then and there from Aizawa's antics.

Soon, from the huge entrance of the facility, a small figure made its appearance and started heading to their place. For all the staff of the UA, as well as the students, this was a familiar person that they recognized as no other than the school nurse herself and healing heroine, Recovery Girl.

Midoriya could remember millions of times he had ended up into her office unconscious or in a really bad condition after overdoing it with his Quirk, only for her to heal him in seconds. Even though, usually after that he was getting his traditional pep talk from her about how inresponsible he was.

The old lady arrived in the scene and glanced at the girl, a disappointed look in her face. Leaning a bit, she planted a kiss to her forehead, the only effective way for her Quirk to be used. Immediately, all of the girl's wounds started to glow until they disappeared completely into a handful of white sparkles. However she didn't show signs of waking up.

"How did you let something like that happen again Eraserhead?" she asked angrily the teacher present. He turned to look at the ground, assumed with himself. "I came as quickly as I could. But this facility is too big for only one teacher being responsible for keeping the students safe. There should be more measures taken".

The nurse nodded "Even though I agree with you on that, this is not the place nor the time to talk about it. Take the girl to her room and let her rest to her bed. She can have the rest of the day free from school, maybe the next one too so she had fully recovered" "Yes ma' am!".

While all this was happening, the young boy had found his chance to go and kneel next to the girl's side. He solified his hand and with it took hold of hers, sharing some of his body's temperature with her as he had so long since started doing to make her relax. Seeing the heroine leave, he snapped his head to the other teacher who had started putting the girl into his back to carry her to her room.

Izuku refusing to let go of her hand, as it also worked as a reassurance for him that the girl was still alive, started levitating to her side, moving slowly so he matched the speed they were moving with. On the way, he heard Mr Aizawa once again talk with All Might, telling him to call out the exercise and get the students back to class.

Of course, even though hesitant, the retired hero complaied and along with the students went back to their class where a lot of questioning awaited them. But for the time being the homeroom teacher couldn't think about that as he had another, more important task at hand that he needed to complete.

Getting into the dorms and heading into her room, he gently laid her to her bed and wrote a note for her to find once she wakes up that explained everything that had happened. Making sure that she was comfortable for one last time, he left the room to get back to the school building leaving, unknowingly to him, his dead student along with the girl.
