That same night in the dorms, the mission squad met again. This time it was Hanta, Hitoshi and Tsuyu's team and Tenya and Ochako's team for Phase II of the mission to take over. After Katsuki, Izuku and Shouto's team succeeded in Phase I, they were able to move on to the next part of the mission.

Hanta, went over the details of their completed mission, Hitoshi and Tsuyu were standing behind him showing support. Everyone else was seated facing forward and looking at them horrified as Hanta spoke of the conversation he had with Y/n. Tsuyu and Hitoshi passing the printed pictures Hanta took of her back and arms, handing them around to each team.

Ochako without meaning to gasped loudly. "Is this..." she began to ask already knowing what the answer would be.

Aizawa motioned for Hanta, Hitoshi and Tsuyu to take a seat. This was Hanta's first-time taking point on a mission, and he could already see the damage it did mentally to the third-year student. He knew his students would only get worse as the mission progressed.

"Let's step out of the mission mentality for a moment. This is a lesson you all need. Being a hero is more than beating people up. We also must know how to talk with someone who is not just physically but mentally scarred. This semester principal Nezu suggested we have a class on psychology. Not only for the citizens you are saving, but for your mental stability as well." Aizawa glanced over at Katsuki who was fidgeting on his seat.

He didn't like to be put on the spot, but he knew some of this was for him as well.

"To answer your question Uraraka. Yes, these scars look similar to what Eri endured when she was experimented on. It's safe to assume for Y/n to get her quirk changed, she must have gone through drastic measures as well. Team Ingenium and Uravity, do you have news to share with the rest of the team?"

While Hanta's team gathered information by talking directly to Y/n. Tenya and Ochako were tasked to gather details on Y/N's hometown.

Once they were able to get the confirmation through a text Hanta sent them while he was still with Y/n. That in fact she was from Mexico. They found out what happened all those years ago from what they discovered.

While Tenya was explaining this to the team. Izuku felt warm air heat up his right side. Looking over at Shouto, he saw his friend with closed eyes and teeth gritted in anger.

When Shouto was handed, the photos taken of Y/n's scars – he felt furious. How could someone do this to her, and at such a young age too. And still keep doing it to this day?

Izuku reaching over, gently put his hand on his friend's shoulder, gaining his attention. He understood what felt. No one should be tortured this way, especially done at such a young age.

Shouto's heterochromia eyes clashed with emerald, seeing the same fire in his eyes.

Izuku has this gentle glint to his green eyes. They always seem to sparkle with tender and love. However, there are rare occasions where his eyes would lose their glimmer and were replaced by a deadly sharpness instead. A sharpness Katsuki showed in his vermillion eyes as he saw the photos as well.

"I know..." Izuku whispered to his friend, calming him down a little.

Tenya crossed his arms in front of him, while Ochako stood silently next to his side. "So far, what we found is not good. The whole town was burned to the ground. We called their hero association and were told the town was overrun by the cartel. Due to the number of villains in Mexico, the heroes from there were overpowered. The American Hero Association is helping in taking Mexico back. The people who inhabited the town are either declared missing or dead." Tenya with multiple copies of his report passed one to each group.
