"Ngh-" It was hard to breath, "GASP-"

I was talking to Kacchan one moment when entering an alleyway, before something grabbed us.

It's just been blurry since.

I've been trying to get out of this... sludge? Thick slime? For what felt to be hours.

Why was no one helping? The heroes? Anyone?

I can hear and feel bakugo screaming, kicking and exploding next to me. At least that was a bit comforting.

Ah! I can see the outside better!

-

"GASP-"

Izuku desperately tried clawing his way out of this slime.

It felt disgusting against hisself and his wings. Grimey, sludge-like, mucus, and all the most disgusting feelings you could think of, all mixed into one touch.

Just anyway to keep that slime away from his mouth, his- just any place the slime tried entering through.

It was disgusting. Utterly filthy. He was going to burn these clothes when he got home.

IF he got home.

"eLP- HELP- GET ME OUT OF- OF HERE! SOMEBODY!- AGH-"

He summoned a... what he could make out an ice bow. Ah, RIGHT! He was still transformed from that blue slushy! He could try to do something!

He summoned a blue arrow on the bow and shot directly up, up, and up. Until it faltered and fell right down and hit the slime villain.

The arrow broke and froze the slime villain over, it was something. Thankfully, it didn't freeze Kacchan or himself. This would buy them sometime.

He looked around, still struggling to get free or atleast some idea of what to do-

He had an idea.

-

"Kacchan- Kacchan!" He was so weak he could just barely whisper, in a hoarse voice, "If you can get your arm out, aim for the eyes!"

-

Then the ice in casing the villain broke, it didn't take long, just as expected, and it was so much angrier.

"HOW DARE YOU! But I like that feisty-ness in a skin suit! It means, it'll just be more useful!"

There was little Izuku could do, flailing around with the wings that replaced his arms in this form.

He was exhausted, and with the small little pocket he clawed through, he could see heroes standing around, idle and worried looks plastered on their faces. Worried? You should do something regardless if your quirk isn't a match for it!

He couldn't do much now either though. He shot one last arrow he could muster out, and successfully froze the villain again.

He hoped, he hoped he would make it out.

No, he begged whatever god or deity out there that he could make it out alive.

-

"DETROIT SMASH!" Had my prayers been answered? All Might?

The ice that Izuku previously incased the villain in shattered as All Might hit it. Causing a small tornado to form just from the punch, then it started to rain as the citizens and remaining heroes cheered.

He could only lay on the ground though, heavy breathing while puking out whatever slime had gotten into him.

"Wheeze!-" Kacchan was beside him, laying on the floor too. He put up more of a fight and yet seemed as tired and traumatised as he was.

He already turned back into his normal, plain self through sheer exhaustion and the fact he barely drank his slushy from before.

Ah. But enough of mourning the loss of his drink, he was just happy he was alive and well. Kacchan too.

-

It was already evening, the sun was setting, and the sounds of cars passing by was ever so present.

They could both barely stomach anything after that.

But they were heading home now.

"Hey Kacchan?" He stopped walking, prompting Katsuki to stop too.

"Yeah nerd?" Katsuki replied with.

"We should train together." He paused, "After everything that's happened today? I don't ever want to have that happened to me again."

"We're both aiming for UA too right? That's even better isn't it?" Reasoning on, he found more motives to do to, "We can be the Hero Duo we always dreamed of."

"So what do you say?" He questioned. He knew the answer he would get back, but this was just for reassurance.

"..." Katsuki kept staring at the concrete ground until he turned around "Yeah. Let's do that." He agreed, "But first, is to get home and burn these clothes, I'm never touching these again, you got that?"

Now, they were both smiling, "Haha! Yeah, we need to do that first." And Izuku was happy with that.
