A cold evening that the men of Fort Adams military base were experiencing. A break in the events that were unfolding allotted for a little off time for the personal of the base. Only few left were its CO and an interesting Lieutenant on base. 

Lieutenant Midoriya was asked to appear before his CO in his office to discuss an important matter neither could ignore... But both would wish they could.

Lt. Midoriya: -Knocks-

Col. Locke: "Come in Lieutenant."

Lt. Midoriya: "Reporting as ordered sir."

Col. Locke: "You don't have to address me as such Midoriya. No one's practically here besides us, but I am glad you are..."

The captain looked away, a face grimacing at the next sentence he would utter.

Col. Locke: "I received a call from Brigadier General Armstrong..." 

Lt. Midoriya: "Isn't he stationed back in our Japanese embassy ?"

Col. Locke: "He was..." -Pause- "His cadre of tight-asses was restationed with a Japanese force-They sought to look into a group of quirk terrorists and try to dismantle some of the growing branches, but quite a few were killed in a recent raid..."

Once more he lowered his head.

Col. Locke: "I like you Midoriya, you help to keep some order and most of the men follow you happily... But your platoon is being moved to aid his endeavor over there. I'm sorry"

Lt. Midoriya: "And I was just starting to like it here." -Chuckles- "Well guess I am to be going back home then huh?"

Col Locke: "You and your wife are to be there by Monday next week."

Lt. Midoriya: "Well... at least this will be interesting, right John?"

Col Locke: "Hisashi... This isn't good, you're going under Armstrong's command, you have to understand he is dangerous, the rumors around him alone is why they wanted him out of the states ... So please, be careful"

Hisashi:"I will, and thank you for everything you've done for me. It has meant a lot John..."

They exchanged a final goodbye as Hisashi went to pack up his things. The cold night seeming to become even cooler by the minute, with no end of ever letting up...

First getting his wife pregnant and now he must endure moving back home. With all of that in mind, within the week the platoon shipped out to their new location while Hisashi and Inko moved with a flight as they had a scheduled check up with a doctor the next day of them being there. 



On the plane though was when the first of many started to arise, Inko began to have her cramps despite the birth only being relatively new. But it was also at this point that turbulence was also being felt.

Hisashi: "Why are we... Weather's not been stirring too much beyond what was happening in the gulf?"

Inko: -Breathing Heavily- "Do... You... think that some...thing has... happened... with the plane?"

Hisashi: "I would certainly hop-"

He was cut off with a strange whirring noise that pierced the cab, startling everyone and causing all eyes to look upon a man on the right wing. A glowing green visage surrounding his body. And just as soon as he appeared, so did one of the greatest heroes ever known. With a flash of blue and yellow, a strong gust of wind brought attention to the current number one hero herself, Nana. With her people began to cheer that it all may be ok, and true to that there was a calm before the storm of the fight. Nana closing the gap and the villain trying his best to stay at range shooting beams towards her. The result being him being knocked off the wing and disappearing before anyone could see if he was in the air falling to the water below.

Everyone was cheering that the day was saved... Almost everyone, it would come to puzzle Hisashi as he didn't see the villain detained compounded with the puzzled look that Nana also had until her apprentice showed up. Another man of of great stature, a wide smile, and yellow hair.

Hisashi: -Mumbling- "She didn't kill him did she?" -Pause- "No he disappeared..."

Inko: "What honey?" 

Hisashi: "Nothing... I think... I hope."

Inko: "I'm sure that everything will be ok in the end... after all we have this bundle of joy too look forward to."

She looked to her stomach that was slightly larger than normal, a bright smile on her face, wondering what is in store for the future.

Hisashi: "Ya..." 

The heroes entered the cab to check upon all passengers with not much to be found beyond people cheering for their 'apparent victory'. All the while a look of confusion and concern was both found on the heroes if you looked hard enough. 

The flight resumed its course with the heroes aboard making Hisashi even more questionable, but with no luck he decided to just push it to the back of his mind.

Finally after the remaining few hours they reached land fall where they all offloaded and the heroes went their own way, jumping off into Mustafu city Japan, Hisashi and Inko went to baggage claim and proceeded to travel to the new house that was stationed for them, and a green light escaped the plane to a sewer grate close to the airport...

When they arrived they were greeted with a very plain one-story house, and small pile of mail, the outlier of the stack being a letter with a military stamp reading,  'FOR  LIEUTENANT HISASHI MIDORIYA'

Hisashi: "So he wants me to report tomorrow... great, right when we have a check up at the doctor!"

Inko: "Calm down Hisashi, it will be ok I can drive myself there and I'll tell you the news when you get back. It will be all right honey."

Hisashi: "You're right dear." -Smiles- "You're always right, and gods what did I do to deserve you."

Inko: "You were charming."

He goes to hug her and then does a double take.

Hisashi: "Were?"

She laughs in response and gives him a kiss, at which they get everything unpacked,  settling into their new home; Soon turning in for the evening with both of them having a priority tomorrow, something that made Hisashi lay there for hours wondering even more about the day ahead. Back in his home country... it was both warming but at the same time felt unwelcoming. Now also having to deal with his mistakes back home, and figuring out how to not make new ones.

What made it even worse is how it seemed to be colder than the night Jack gave him the news back in the States. 'There is no place like home huh...'
