"Do you hear that!?" Hatsume asked as the sound of drums made them both freeze in place. Izuku nodded and held a finger to his lips signalling her to be quiet. They hid behind a tree as footsteps started to become clear.

"Do you see anything!?" A voice growled. 

"No, nothing!" Another voice answered. Izuku held a hand over both their mouths as they both stiffened. The footsteps got louder as the two people walked closer.

"No fucking way the sky just ripped open like that. I saw people fall out of it! It was dark magic or something! They have to be around here somewhere!" Another male voice replied. Hatsume's eyes watered as the voices got closer.

"Continue looking! They're in my territory!" The first voice spoke again. Izuku's eyes widened as he started to recognize who it was. Fear crept through his entire body as he looked at Hatsume who was beginning to panic.

"Don't make a noise..." Izuku whispered as he forced her to sit by the tree trunk.

"Iz-" Hatsume started but Izuku quickly shushed her. He backed away from her before looking around the tree to see three males searching the area. He could instantly recognize all of them just from the way they looked. 

Prince Katsuki of the barbarians was the first male he recognized. His face and body covered in their black and red war paints, his red cape was swaying as he walked and the necklaces he wore clicking whenever he ducked to search under objects. 

His blonde hair was spiked and he had red earrings dangling from his ears. The next male looked much gentler with red spikey hair and razor sharp teeth. The side of his face held dark red dragon scales and so did his upper arms and the sides of his ribs. The third male had yellow hair with a black stripe in it with yellow eyes and a book in his hands along with a small bag on his side.

"They couldnt have gotten far!" The first blonde said before turning to where Izuku was peeking from behind the tree. Quickly Izuku ducked but he had already been spotted.

"Found ya!" The man grinned before rushing to the tree and turning to where Izuku was standing. He found Izuku and Hatsume huddled in the corner of the tree holding onto each other and quickly he froze.

"Who are you and what are you doing here!?" He asked grabbing Izuku by the collar of his shirt and pulling him up.

"Y-You're Katsuki," Izuku said quietly. Katsuki's red eyes narrowed at the greenette infront of him before slamming him against the tree. Izuku's back arched slightly and his eyes widen as the air was knocked from his lungs. 

Hatsume whimpered slightly at the sight. Katsuki glanced at her and taking notice of the fear in her eyes. He glared at her turning his attention back to Izuku who had tears leaking down his freckled cheeks.

"Who are you and what are you doing here!?" He asked again. Izuku turned to see the other two males walking into the area. 

"P-Please we dont mean any harm!" Izuku started only to get slammed against the tree again. 

"How do you know who I am!?" Katsuki inquired. Izuku gasped for air as it was once again knocked from his lungs. 

"Kat you're being too rough. You'll never get any information if you keep slamming him against the tree. Go take a walk and let me handle this," The red-head said causing Katsuki to growl and let go of Izuku. 

Izuku quickly moved to Hatsume and made her get behind him. He didnt want them to hurt her. He had got her into this mess and he didnt want her to get hurt on his behalf.

"I'm not going to hurt you... I'm Eijiro and that one over there is Denki," Eijiro said as he kneeled in front of the two. Denki quickly made his way over and reached for Izuku's hand only for the greenette to flinch and push his hand back to cage Hatsume in behind him.

"You're injured. I'm a healer. I can heal you," Denki stated as he reached his hand out for Izuku who hesitantly lent his hand out. Denki smiled at him before reaching into his bag and pulling out a small leaf. He placed the leaf onto Izuku's palm that was still bleeding and it began to glow a light yellow almost white color. 

Izuku's heart raced as he watched in awe at the healer whose eyes also turned a light yellow color. The pain slowly faded as the wound was healed. 

"So... Who are you guys? Were you the ones who fell from the sky?" Eijiro asked as he sat in front of the two who had stopped shaking and were slowly letting their guard down.

"We did fall from the sky..." Hatsume answered. She looked at Izuku who nodded at her.

"We were in his house and there was a story book. A childrens book, suddenly everything spun and lit up as we were pulled into the book," She explained quietly. Eijiro stood up and held his hand out for Izuku who took it and helped Hatsume up as well. 

"You fell into a childrens book? Is that how you knew of Kat?" Eijiro asked and Izuku nodded.

"I know of you as well. Eijiro Kirishima, you're from a small secret dragon society. One of the very last dragons," Izuku whispered. Suddenly Katsuki was back and shoving Izuku once again. 

"We're at war right now and you want me to accept that you just happened to fall into a 'childrens story book?' Yeah right! Who sent you here? Shigaraki? Or are you spies from Prince's Shoto's castle! I should've known those bastards would come after us sooner or later!" Katsuki growled as he continued to back Izuku up against a tree.

"W-What! I'm not a spy! I dont even know who Shigaraki is! I fell from the sky is that not enough proof! Did you not see the sky rip open and spit us out!?" Izuku inquired as he pushed back against Katsuki. 

"You're lying! Who sent you!"
