Eri... she has grown into her quirk so well... I am proud that she made it there, further than I ever trusted myself to get to. Even with my help she quickly surpassed where I could get her. Opening my eyes, I could hear a monitor beeping at my bedside and a mask covered my face. I took a deep breath, trying to piece together what I could remember and what had happened. How long had passed? What time was it? "All... for... One...?"

Turning my head slightly I could make out how dark it was outside. So at least several hours had passed since... What day was it again? It's all so fuzzy. "(Y/n), glad to see you finally woke up. I just sent Todoroki back to the dorm." Turning my head All Might was standing beside a curtain he was holding open. So this was at least before Mydoriya left. "You've been asleep for a week. He kinda filled us in about it happening before, Kai I mean. I went down to talk to him myself. When I mentioned you had hit Midoriya and then fallen asleep and hadn't woken up yet he told me."

I nodded slightly, I still felt really tired. Almost unable to speak. That said it was because of how much pressure I had placed on myself not only in trying to find All for One but to get back to whatever point I made it to. "What day is it? And glad to see you're still.... Alive. I don't know if you actually died or not but I kinda remember hearing about a car exploding with you inside it."

He didn't flinch, just pulled a seat closer to where I was. "Tomorrow is the clash between your two classes. A and B that is. Are you going to be up for it?" To that I shook my head. I would hardly be able to move for another three days at the very least. There was also a rough estimate of what I now could remember and where I was. "What about All for One?"

To that I froze. "He escaped with the help of a former hero and most of, if not all of the people locked up in Tartarus. Even with a warning there would be no way to avoid the calamity that is going to occur, and I can't even remember the date that it happened. That said, we can at least make some preparations in the meantime. Try to save as many civilians as possible before it gets to that point."

Stopping me from continuing he just smiled. "We can talk more about that later. You still look exhausted, how far did you keep pushing yourself to find All for One when he escaped?"

I managed a dry laugh. "About as hard as Midoriya, he just had it worse than I did. You're right though... I'm still really tired... and sore. Keep an eye on that kid tomorrow, he just might surprise you. And tell Shinso that I'll be rooting for him, in the box of course. Plus.. I'm sorry I can't join him this time. If I could have, I would have loved to be on his team."

I was going to stay for three matches. Todoroki's match, and both of Shinso's. He really was a good kid and we had a lot to talk about since he realized his quirk didn't work on me. So I was excited for the turn out even though I already kind of knew who won, though the last time I had participated as well so there should be some differences at the very least.

I smirked when Shinso Brainwashed Beast first. He really did work really hard on that mask of his, getting it just right. Todoroki stood behind me as I sat in the wheelchair. I was probably smiling like an idiot when I yelled Go Shinso! As loud as I could, even knowing he couldn't hear me. Todoroki just chuckled behind me. His arms resting on the back of the chair. "You really like him that much. I'm hurt."

I glanced back for just a second. "It's not like that Shoto... I'm just really proud of where he came from. After all, we both have to deal with the assumption that we are villains. Him more than I did of course. I'm just proud of the name he made for himself, is all."

That teacher though... he was something else. Still though, I had hope for Class A and their victory. Even at a 2-to-1 capture currently. I leaned forward the longer they went, using Tsu's quirk to confuse the beast was a good strategy, if they didn't rely on Denki to win it for them. So what was their plan B? No, not plan B, Plan A with a revision to make it work with a known enemy.
