"Pixiebob!" Izuku screamed, only for the two of you to be pushed back by another hero, trying his best to shield you from the villains who had their partner pinned and bloody to the ground.

Fear filled Izuku's gaze. "Kota!" His eyes met yours.

"We have to go get him." You spoke as the tremble of your fingers spread to the rest of your body.

—aizawa

Aizawa couldn't have gotten out of that building faster. The instant Mandalay's telepathic warning traveled through everyone on the campsite, he darted for the door.

It didn't make sense, they had put in place so many precautions to ensure each student would be safe from the villains.

Who could have leaked it? He didn't even like to think that someone could have. He wanted to trust his students and peers on the faculty.

His first and prominent thought was finding you. He knew there were villains out there after you—to have the last of Nana Shimura's blood.

Aizawa paused, filled with dread as the once beautiful forest was filled with flames colored brilliant blue.

"This is bad." He let out a sort of gasp as his eyes slowly scanned the forest.

"Always worried about others, huh Eraser Head!?"

"VLAD!" Aizawa screamed as the flames from the villain hurled in his direction.

"You pro heroes stay out of our way, you're not the ones we have beef with." The man with the patched face and beautiful flames scoffed.

—y/n

The League of Villains action squad. Wasn't that what Shigaraki called his little crew?

You didn't like this at all.

"Stain...so these are his followers." Iida said through gritted teeth. Your eyes flickered over to him, he was incredibly nervous and his anger was only increasing. When the news first announced that there were people who admired the man you put behind bars, Iida was silent the entire day.

That man put you all through hell.

It was even worse when you found the merchandise sellers were advertising.

"You're the ones who brought him down in Hosu City, let me introduce myself." The villain's hand grabbed the hilt of his sword. "I'm Spinner."

His grin only expanded as he pulled out an array of blades, pointed directly at you and your friends. "And I intend to make his dreams come true."

Izuku grabbed your forearm and began to step back, pulling you with him as Mandalay began shouting orders, ensuring you all leave and don't fight any villains you may encounter.

"Lead them class president!"

"Iida, go without me." Izuku lightly pushed you towards Iida, turning towards Mandalay.

"What-" You stammered.

"Midoriya! What do you mean?"

"Midoriya."

"MANDALAY! I-I know where he is." Izuku yelled out, his hand clutching his shirt as he cried out the the pro fighting off the villains.

You pushed Iida's arm off, ignoring his cries of protest as you ran up to Izuku. You clutched his arm tightly.

His gaze flickered towards you. "Y/n, please I-"

"I'm going with you."

He turned and cupped your face with his hands, pain flashing in his eyes because he needed to go find Kota, but the need to ensure you were safe was just as strong. "If you get hurt- Y/n, I need you to get to safety." He shook his head like he couldn't even fathom the thought.
