peters pov:
it's been a few days since our meeting with night eye and all those other heroes. the heroes are investigating all of the areas where the hassaikai could be.
meanwhile midoryia, kirishima, ururaka, tsuyu, and i have all been training like hell. we all want to be the best we can be for when we rescue eri.

right now for training we're climbing up a wall that one of the teachers had built, which is super easy for me. i mean i have spider powers so.

besides using my free time to train, i've also been studying a lot. i'd say i'm almost fluent in japanese. i've always been a smart kid but ever since the spider bite i've been able to pick up things faster so maybe that helped out.
i've also been calling mr. hawks lately. i'm not allowed to tell anyone about my work study, including him. still though, it's nice to have someone to talk to. besides midoryia i'm not really friends with anyone in class. i think it might be better that way anyways. that way they won't be dragged into my universe problem.

speaking of that problem, the glitching has gotten worse. it happens anytime i'm stressed out (which has been a lot) and usually when i'm training. i haven't seen that green glow though since the day with sir night eye. maybe that's a good thing.

after training i go to lunch. the food here is really good and i'm able to get enough of it for my high metabolism. so even though i'm in the wrong universe and i'm part of a top secret plan to take down a large criminal group i'd say i'm having a pretty good time. sure i may miss mr. stark and aunt may and ned and mj. and yeah i guess i did let a defenseless child go back to their abuser. but i'm okay. i'm fine. no need to worry about me.

thinking about all this distracted me from my food.

"are you not gonna eat, parker?" todoroki asked me

"huh? oh uh-yeah i will. see i'm eating right now!" i say as i shove noodles into my mouth.

"are you alright?" iida asks me

"yeah. you and midoryia have been acting edgy and depressed ever since you started your work studies." todoroki says.

"o-oh have we really?" midoryia says looking at me then down at his food

"if you guys ever want to talk or anything just let me know. we're all friends, right?" iida says while putting out his hand

that was the breaking point for both of us and we just started crying. maybe for different reasons. maybe midoryia was crying because of the stuff with eri. and maybe so was i. but for me maybe it was also the fact that what iida said reminded me of ned. and that reminded me that there's a chance that i'll never get to see ned again.

"midoryia...parker..." todoroki said while iida just freaked out.

"sorry." i say as i wipe my tears.

"sorry! it's okay. it's nothing." midoryia says

maybe this is just because i've been bottling up my emotions. i've had no one to talk to other than karen. and i love karen, but she's an AI. there's not really much she can do with human emotion.

i'm trying to stop crying but the tears just keep coming.
"i'm sorry. heroes aren't supposed to cry." i say, frantically wiping the tears away.

"i dunno. i feel like heroes cry when they need to, don't they?" todoroki says

i guess they do. i've seen mr. stark cry before. ben too.

maybe heroes do cry.
but then again, maybe i'm not a hero.

todoroki and iida offer their food to midoryia and i but i let it go all to midoryia. i've had enough anyways.

the rest of the day goes by in a blur and the next thing i know, it's nighttime.

i lay down and try to sleep.

for some reason i can't find a comfortable position so i just lay on my back and stare at the ceiling.

i decide to pull out my phone and talk to karen. me and her have been trying to think of ways to get back home. maybe somebody here has some type of quirk that could make a portal? maybe i could learn dr. strange magic and get back home? or maybe i could make a cool portal gun?! that would be cool, but it all seems highly unrealistic.

mid-talk with karen my phone starts ringing.

it's sir night eye.

i immediately sit up and answer the phone.

they found it. they found the hassaikai headquarters!

i rush downstairs and see that kirishima, midoryia, ururaka, and tsuyu are already there.

"so you got it too?" kirishima asks

"it's happening." midoryia says

"well lets do our best!" ururaka says

"yeah! this time we'll get eri and protect her!" i say

~the next day~

this morning i woke up and get ready as fast as possible. i did everything i could to get ready for today. i stretched, checked my web fluid, made sure karen was running, and made sure to bring extra webshooters. i'm as ready as can be.

i race over to sir night eye's agency.

and suddenly there's that feeling. the feeling that i'm being watched.

but i'm too busy to care right now. i mean i have the chance to go save eri! who cares if someone's watching me.

when i get to the agency almost everybody is already there. sir night eye explains what he found out and how. then he explains the plan we're going to follow.

before we head out nighteye stops me.

"parker."

"yes sir?" i respond

"you don't have your heroes license so technically you aren't allowed to be helping us out in this investigation. but i've spoken to the police and they said they would make an exception for you. you have my permission to use your quirk." he tells me.

"great! thank you sir!" i say gratefully.

there's no way i will let anything stop me in saving eri today.

overhaul's pov:

"sir. the heroes and the police are planning an attack today. we have to get out of here." kurono tells me, "the spider kid shigaraki is looking for is with them too."

"great. inform the league of villains." i order.

——————————————————
peters pov:

we arrive at the hassaikai base and they give us an overview of everyone's quirks.

midoryia and i were talking over the plan when mr. aizawa came up and said, "remember guys. i'm watching you. if the league of villains show up at all, you're done. understood?"

"understood!" midoryia and i say

he leaves us alone so we continue our talk

"are you ready for this midoryia?" i ask him slightly nervous. i'm always ready to prove myself and help out others but that doesn't mean i don't get scared.

"of course i am! also you can just call me deku y'know?" he says

"haha okay deku. let's do this!"

we get one more rundown from the police saying how this is gonna go when suddenly a villain appears.

let's do this.
