I'll Return (Bakugoxfem!reader)

Chapter 3~ Returned to Japan

"Dear passengers, flight FA193 to Tokyo will be landing momentarily. Please secure all small items, stow your tray, and return your seat to its original position. Thank you for flying with us and have a wonderful evening." 

(y/n) readjusts her seat and buckles her seatbelt as the warning light turns on. She looks out the window as the plane dips through the clouds, revealing the bright lights of Japan's capital city. 

The (h/c)-haired woman smiles at the sight. It's been years since she even set foot in her home country, though she certainly wishes she could return under better circumstances. 

(y/n) frowns as she remembers the reason she's on the plane in the first place. 

The phone conference from the previous day returns to her mind.

"The league of villains' sudden disappearance two years ago was a stroke of good luck. However, recently there have been many sightings of the members of the league." Detective Tsukauchi explains, "Until last week, none of these were confirmed. However, we now have documented proof that the youngest known member, your former classmate, Cindy Reisha has been spotted near the Tatooine shopping center. More details will be shared at the meeting. See you there."

"I understand. I should arrive in Tokyo tomorrow at 2 am Japanese standard time." (y/n) replies. 

"Understood, someone will pick you up at the airport and drive you to your hotel. Have a nice day, Mrs. Bakugo."

The plane lands on the runway, shaking (y/n) from her thoughts. She grabs her carry-on bag and silently waits for her turn to exit the plane. Many people pass by before she can exit, then finally she has an opening to leave. 

(Y/n) navigates the large airport, searching for the baggage claim. She assumes whoever was sent to pick her up must be waiting there as well. 

(y/n) quickly texts Katsuki that she's arrived in Tokyo, safe and sound. After a few minutes of aimlessly following signs, (y/n) finally arrives at the luggage claim. 

As she enters the area, she quickly spots a poorly made sign with her name on it. Behind it stands the one sent to drive her to the hotel.

Aizawa with purple hair and eyes.

It's Shinso, but he grew out his hair. 

"Hey (y/n),  it's been a while, hasn't it?"

"It has," (y/n) replies, "it's good to see you again Shinso. How have you been?"

"I've been fine, we should grab your stuff and get going," the purplette suggests. (y/n) nods and starts searching for her luggage. It's quite easy to spot, considering her bags are the same (f/c) with a (2f/c) trim. 

Shinso helps (y/n) with her bags and leads her to his car. After storing the bags in the trunk, Shinso sits at the wheel. (Y/n) gets into the seat beside him and immediately tries to start a conversation. 

The drive lasts an hour and a half, plus a very late dinner and coffee break because (y/n) hasn't eaten since lunch and Shinso lives off of coffee instead of sleep. Once they arrive (y/n) checks in and Shinso helps her bring her luggage to her room. 

After they finish, (y/n) says goodbye to her old friend and then turns to get a good look at her room. 

The Hero Commission provided (y/n) with the room for her stay, so naturally, it's quite extravagant. 

The walls are a beautiful cream color, complementing the white and gold bedspreads. The velvety carpet is colored deep gold with a hint of black. Black curtains adorn the large glass windows that overlook the city below. 

Of course, (y/n) doesn't care how the room looks at the moment, she just wants to get some sleep before the big meeting the next day. 

She collapses onto the bed and falls asleep immediately. 

...

The next morning comes all too quickly. Before she can even process what's going on, (y/n) is in a rental car driving to the meeting, fully ready for the day. She takes a sip of her coffee in hopes of waking herself up a bit more. It works, though only slightly. 

(y/n) quickly arrives at the meeting location. A very plain-looking building sits in front of her, blending in well with the surrounding structures. The bland location is an intentional choice. It's inconspicuous, making it the perfect place to have a meeting hidden in plain sight. 

(y/n) parks her car behind the building. She gets out of the car, looking around quickly to see if anyone was following her. Upon finding no one, she enters through the back door. 

"It's about time you got here,"

"It's good to see you too..." (y/n) replies, "Eraserhead."

Shota Aizawa gives a small smile to his former student, though only for a moment. 

"Come on, the meeting will start once everyone's here," he explains, "we're only missing Chargebolt, Pinky, and Cellophane."

(y/n) nods and follows Aizawa into the meeting room.

The meeting is small, only including a few mainstream heroes. The most recognizable being Fatgum, Ryukyu, Suneater, Nejire-chan, and Centipeder. (y/n) recognizes a few others such as Deku, Shoto, Red Riot, and Creati. 

She gives them all a quick, polite nod and takes her seat between Red Riot and Ryukyu. 

The final three heroes arrive just on time, and the meeting begins. 

Centipeder runs the meeting as the report went to his agency. He explains the basics of the encounter. 

"Cindy Reisha, formerly Cindy Toga, was spotted in Hosu city, along with Himiko Toga. The two of them broke into a small engineering lab," he explains, "The lab was working on a top-secret project of some kind. Unfortunately, no one besides the scientists working on the project knew what it can do. Even worse, the League killed all the scientists, except for one we suspect they kidnapped."

"So, basically," Fatgum cuts in, "the League of Villains has a genius engineer, an unknown machine, and the element of surprise. We have no information, no secret weapons, and do we have a plan?"

"No,"

"Fantastic!"
