"New communication," Burnin listened to Endeavor on the microphone, "Enchantress, on the front line. Number One refereed me Edgeshot wants you there."

"What?!"

"No fucking way she's moving from here."

"Alright."

Izuku and Katsuki turned to Len, a mix of shock and fear in her eyes.

That day was the day of the mission and almost all Heroes of Japan plus students of class A and B from U.A. High School were all involved. Goal? Unknown. At least for the youngest.

They were parted in a front group, who'll open a path for the heroes inside the villains cave, a evacuation group, a recognisant one and then another group headed to Jaku Hospital. The last one would be composed by only the strongest Pros, leaded by Endeavor himself. Len knew Mirko was with them since she texted her the night before, warning her they won't be side to side.

Leora was assigned with Katsuki, Izuku, Iida, Todoroki, Ochaco and Tsu at the evacuation center; their job was to take people out of the city, as Aizawa told her on the phone.

But now something changed.

Katsuki gripped her forearm, dragging her closer, "You stay here."

The rest of the team silently watched the scene, only Izuku was brave enough to step in, not on Len's side though.

"What if something happens and we're not there?", he was beyond worried about her best friend. She could protect herself, sure, but incidents acquired everyday and he had a bad feeling too. Since that morning the voice of the first user muttered non-stop, making grown inside him an unpleasant sensation. Was Len having it too?

She shrugged from Katsuki grip, cupping Izuku's cheek and slamming her forehead against his, "Always so stressed," she smiled, "I'll be fine, okay? We'll be in contact all the time, stop worrying. I can handle any situation tossed in my way. Also, don't do reckless things or I'll come back and kick your ass."

He snuggled on her, chuckling, "Then I better do something reckless."

Len kissed his cheek, passing to her boy, who was pouting, disappointed.

"C'mere", her hands closed on the sides of his face, pulling him down to stamp a kiss on his lips. Not minding all the crowd they had, Katsuki passed an arm around her waist, pushing her closer to his chest, kissing her back. He was terrified. He couldn't know if something went wrong and those were their last moments together, he was afraid she would get hurt or worse. What if one of them died and he never once had the courage to tell her 'I love you'?

But then they parted and her eyes were shimmering with life, love and determination. He knew it would take more than some hits to take down Lenora. She was indomitable, a fierce creature of the night fighting with the light at her side.
