24: There are Minors in the Bar

Third Person POV

Vlad King called emergency services as soon as he could.

Out of the forty students at the camp, fifteen were unconscious and in serious condition due to the gas. Eleven were injured. Thirteen were unharmed, physically.

And two of them were missing.

One of the six pro heroes was in serious condition because of a blow to the head. One was missing — but it was apparent that she lost a lot of blood.

Meanwhile, on the villain's side, three were caught and arrested. The other attackers managed to disappear without a trace thanks to the warp villain.

The summer training camp everyone was looking forward to couldn't have been more of a disaster.

---------------

The next day, a solemn mood was in the air. At a teacher meeting, everyone agreed that the villains had successfully made a crack in the trust in U.A. — and in hero society in general.

The teachers also agreed that if either Bakugo or Y/N did end up joining the villains, it would be the end of U.A.

Present Mic brought up the idea that there was most likely a traitor among the people of school, as there was no plausible way the villains would have known where the camp was otherwise.

Meanwhile, Detective Tsukauchi received a lead on where the League of Villains' hideout may be, and relayed the information to All Might. He was planning on requesting help from many pros in order to find and destroy this hideout.

The camp attack was all over the news. Those who heard about it were convinced U.A. had some serious management issues, and they were not doing a good enough job of protecting their students.

And they might have been right, because in an abandoned bar, one student woke up surrounded by villains, and one woke up alone.

Y/N's brain was slightly foggy, and she deduced they must have knocked her out with some kind of anesthetic.

She opened her eyes just a slit so they wouldn't know she was awake. Then, she took inventory of her situation. The room's darkness pressed heavily against her eyelids. Her wrists were bound behind her back so tightly in a metal contraption, she couldn't even wiggle her fingers. She was also strapped to a chair, and there seemed to be some kind of machine hooked up to her with wires running all over her skin.

There was a small sliver of light that shone under the door, and she could hear the TV turned to news channels related to the summer camp incident.

Kacchan! Where is he! He got taken too!

She experimented to see if she could use her Quirk, but felt nothing. It seemed the machine she was hooked up to was repressing her Quirk in some way.

It was only then that the full weight of her situation fully hit her, and her breathing quickened.

ZAP!

The TV suddenly turned off.

"I'm so grateful to the media for all the free publicity lately." a muffled voice came through the door.

She recognized it as Shigaraki.

"Right? Isn't it nice? Katsuki Bakugou?"

Y/N tensed up. He was on the other side of the door and safe — for now. If they had wanted to kill him (or her for that matter) they would have already done so. So what did they want with them?

And why did they specifically target Bakugo?

Y/N decided to be quiet for now and figure out what they wanted with both her and her friend.
