FORTITUDE

Intruder..🌸

Misty blinked her eyes in surprise seeing Shoto waiting by the door of their dorm 4:30 in the morning. The boy was dressed comfortably but looks like he was ready to go out.

"Oh.. good morning, Misty-san," someone greets behind her. That took Shoto's attention too who looked at them, offering her a smile when they made a brief eye contact.

"Iida, are you going somewhere?" Misty asks once again surprised to see their class rep all ready to go out based from his jog outfit.

"Oh-"

"To accompany you of course, you extra," a not so nice approach proclaims, cutting Iida off as Bakugo and Midoriya emerged into the living area dressed in the same fashion.

If she was surprised before, she was shocked now. Okay, what now? To accompany her? How'd these people know her morning routine? She didn't tell anyone-

Wait, UA is equipped with the most hightech security cameras, what makes her think her daily morning jog with her little sister won't ever be caught? Not that she minded since they aren't hiding anything, oh well they are but she means their morning jogging.

And now that it resurfaced, her classmates are accompanying her, even Bakugo who looked the grumpiest.

"Aizawa sensei has asked us, to accompany you, since he knew that we also train in the morning but on later time than yours. So he asked us if we can move our time. That way, we can train more too," Midoriya explained with a smile soothing her.

Wow, what trustworthy friends she has.
Reminded her of the other hashiras as well as the friends she left in that other world.

A smile adorned her lips.

"Thank you, that is nice of you guys," she bows a little startling them.

"Tsk, you don't have to do that you know. Your a friend and we are heroes. We help each other."

Now, that is a shock.

That is the nicest thing Bakugo has ever said to her. The other three nods supporting Bakugo's statement.

"Thank you.."

"Hmm, shall we go now? Your little sister is waiting right?" Iida say and she nods.

"Yes."

"Let's go," Shoto chides opening the door and stepping out.

The group of friends began jogging around the campus going to where Ayane's waiting.

UA has her own forest so to speak, a perfect place for recreation, train or just to unwind. Seeing students scattered along the forest line in their free time is a common occurance.

And a perfect place for stamina building, jogging and exercise for starters.

They were almost at the the place when a strange scent caught Misty's nose. Strange but has a tinge of familiarity to it. Worry was quick to wrap her being and her slow jog suddenly turned into full on running surprising her friends.

"Misty-san, what's wrong?" Midoriya calls but Misty didn't even bother turning back.

"She looks worried," Shoto comments beginning to fasten his pace to which the rest follows.

"Is a villain here?! I'll blow 'em up real good!" Bakugo declares, his little fireworks already dancing on his palms.

Questions swirled on Midoriya's brain though. How strong is that villain that he managed to pass through UA's tight security without triggering the alarm?
