Ochako POV:
After Izuku and everyone that went into Thriller Bark left, the rest of our group began sitting patiently around until something could happen. In my boredom, I decided to try out just how weak I am to water thanks to my Devil Fruit. I placed two of my fingers into the ocean to feel some weakness before placing half my hand to have a sense of nausea with the weakness to pull them out. "DAMMIT! THIS IS BORING! WHY WASN'T I ALLOWED TO GO ON THE SHIP INSTEAD OF BEING TRAPPED ON THIS SHITTY PONTOON BOAT!"
"Because of that attitude specifically." Itsuka pointed this out for Kaminari to start laughing.
"STOP LAUGHING, YOU STUPID BATTERY! Uraraka. Make me float."
"Why?"
"So I can get a look at the top of the gate."
"Midoriya said-"
"I know what Deku said, Jesus nut. I'm saying make me float so I can see just what we're up against. If there's some kind of problem, we can be ready to leave on a moment's notice. There could also be a small lever for a manual opening on top that Deku's group could've missed. It wouldn't hurt to check and see."
I thought about what Bakugou said and it was actually smart sounding. The worst thing we could do is waste time trying to understand something's wrong or if something's coming out, we could prepare for it. Not only that, but we could open the gates if needed to help out everyone. I decided to agree to float Bakugou up towards the gate's top. When he gave me the all clear, I released it's effects for Bakugou to use his quirk to land on the top. "WHAT DO YOU SEE!?" Itsuka shouted up top for our comrade to look out.
"THE THING'S AS FUCKING HUGE AS PONYTAIL SAID!"
"DO YOU SEE A LEVER OR SOMETHING UP THERE!?" Bakugou looked around to answer Amajiki for a strange opening sound to be heard.
"The gate's opening! Let's start going in!" Hatsume had us go into position with her taking the front shouting for us. "Stroke! Stroke! Stroke-"
"GRAB AN ORE AND START PADDLING YOURSELF!" Itsuka shouted in anger for Bakugou to look down at us. "I'M GUESSING YOU DID THIS!?"
"I DIDN'T TOUCH ANYTHING! MUST BE PONYTAIL'S GROUP!"
"WE'LL MEET YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE THEN!" We paddled into the ship's port area with something moving from the corner of my eye. Looking up, I didn't see anything with Bakugou not being on top of the gate anymore.
"Anyone have an idea where Bakugou went?"
This confused us all to have everyone look up and Togata think of a possible reason. "He might've went towards shore."
"The ash blond's a pain in the ass, but he's not stupid. He wouldn't go off on his own like this without warning us. I've got a bad feeling we're rowing into a trap." I didn't put as much merit in Itsuka's words, but she was right. What we might be doing is falling right into a trap Moria built for us specifically.
Momo POV:
"Dang it. How much longer? We've been walking for almost an hour now and we have no idea where we're even going." Jirou began questioning our treck with it becoming darker and darker to the point we could barely see where we were going.
"Just keep going and I'm sure we'll find something." We continued to walk with Marguerite turning on a flashlight I made for her.
"So any ideas what this should look like?"
"I'm not certain." I passed another flashlight made by my quirk to Jirou before continuing. "If we're looking for a lever, it's most likely in a confined area like a shack or something. I doubt anyone would be foolish enough to leave such a thing out in the open."
