I Am Here For You (IzuOcha)

Chapter 82: The Arrest of the Uraraka's

*120 Hours Remain*

*Late Afternoon*

Ochaco's eyes slowly opened as she flinched at the immense pain in her back along with the soreness from the rest of her body. She pushed herself up, feeling the comfort of a bed under her, shielding her eyes from the incoming sunlight from the hole in the roof... Hole in the roof?

Ochaco's eyes shot open as she looked around at her surroundings. It was her and Izuku's room from the log cabin, however the roof seemed to have been blown out, snow and wooden debris littered the ground, Izuku's hero outfit and cast sprawled on the floor, missing its neck guard and gloves, and the rest of their belongings, desks, papers and such all destroyed or overturned. 

Ochaco brought a sore hand to her head. The last thing she remembered was... Being surrounded down in the hospital, Nomu about to charge at them. So why was she here? And what happened? Her eyes grew wide as her eyes returned to Izuku's hero outfit. The gloves were gone. Did Izuku do this damage? Was he fighting someone?

Suddenly the door to the room, barely on its hinges, splintered opened to reveal a worn out Kirishima, who wearily smiled at Ochaco as he noticed she was awake. 

"Good to see at least someone's awake..." Kirishima said as he walked in. Ochaco gave him a confused look. His clothes were torn and dirty and his usually spiky hair was falling down his shoulders. He had bruises everywhere and his cheek was purple. 

"Kirishima... What happened? Weren't we under the hospital? Did someone save us?" Ochaco asked. Kirishima gave her a confused look. 

"You... You don't remember?" Kirishima asked. Ochaco slowly and confusedly shook her head. Kirishima's face fell slightly, as if he didn't want to recount the events that had just transpired.

"Well... We escaped the hospital. And we blew it up to keep the Nomu's from entering the city. We heard sounds coming from up here on the mountain so we came up here and... Some guy, he was trying to take Hima, Eri and Midoriya. He... He... Well..."

Ochaco's eyes grew wide. 

"Kirishima. Where's Izuku? Wheres Eri and Hima? Bakugo?" She asked slowly, her face contorting to seriousness. Kirishima's eyes turned worried as he raised a hand. 

"Eri and Bakugo are fine! Unconscious, but fine. The one girl is okay, Hima, right? She's fine too. I've got them resting in beds and on the couches so we're doing okay for the most part."

Ochaco's face had not changed. 

"Kirishima. Where is Izuku?"

Kirishima gulped as he stuttered to find his words, before taking a deep breath as he turned away from Ochaco.

"He... He was the only one we couldn't save." Kirishima said quietly. Ochaco felt her heart stop. Izuku... Izuku was gone? How could she not remember?

"The guy we were fighting... he was able to take on all of us. And when he arrived, he had already taken down Midoriya and Bakugo. Midoriya got up a second time but he was... Different. Something was wrong, he wasn't himself. Yet even all the power, the trench coat guy outsmarted him. You chased after them, we succeeded in getting the girls back but... He touched you and you fell. Maybe he did something to you when you guys came into contact."

Ochaco pushed the covers off of her as she stood weakly. 

"Oi! You shouldn't be standing yet, you took a nasty fall-" Kirishima started as he moved to guide Ochaco back to bed, however Ochaco stopped him.

"Izuku is out there being carried away by some memory erasing experimental maniac and you want me to stay here!?" Ochaco shouted, slapping Kirishima's hand away. "The longer we sit here, the further away they get! We have to go after them-"
