A/N: Fantasy AU (no quirks)
"Yuwai-chan!" Mina yells, chasing after her friend's pet rabbit.
The white rabbit jumps into the bushes, causing the amber-eyed girl to lose him.
"Damn it." She curses, ruffling her hair before she heads back to the village.
The rabbit watches from the bushes as she slumps back to the village. He turns away from the direction the girl went and jumps only to hit a soft yet hard object.
A girl with pure white hair and green eyes looks down to find a lump of white fur. "Are you alright?" She asks, bending down to the rabbit's height.
Yuwai-chan nods, before looking at the small bruise already forming on the girl's leg.
"Don't worry, it's just a small bruise." She says, holding her hands out to the rabbit, a smile on her face.
The rabbit jumps into her arms without hesitation before she stands and begins walking away.

"Koji!" Mina yells, running up to the boy.
"Is something wrong, Mina? Where's Yuwai-chan?" He asks.
"He ran away into the forest!" Mina says, pointing to the tall trees in the direction she just came from. "He jumped into the bushes, and I lost him!" She bows to him. "I'm so sorry, Koji!"
"It's alright." Koji says, a soft smile on his face. "Let's just go look for him, alright?"
Mina nods, grateful he isn't mad with her.
"Go look for who?" Momo asks, walking up to the two, Ochaco, Tsu, and Kyoka following behind her.
"Yuwai-chan got away from me!" Mina says.
"Ah, I see." Kyoka says, twirling a strand of hair around her finger.
"Well, what are we waiting for, let's go find him!" Momo yells, determination shining in her eyes.
🐇 🐇 🐇
"Are you sure he went this way?" Ochaco asks, pushing a bush away from her.
"Positive." Mina says.
"Hey, guys, come check this out." Kyoka says, sitting behind a bush with Tsu.
"Check out what?" Momo asks, sitting next to Kyoka.
Kyoka nods her head to a pond in front of them. They see a girl sitting with animals all around her, petting a small bear cub.
"Isn't it dangerous to pet a bear cub? I thought their mothers were very protective." Tsu says, thoughtfully.
"Yeah, it is." Koji agrees.
Rustling can be heard as a white rabbit runs out of a bush, towards the girl. He stands with his front paws on the girl's thigh.
The white-haired girl looks over to the rabbit. "Hello, Yuwai-chan, did you find something to eat?" She asks with a smile.
The rabbit nods slightly before he falls onto his back, rolling around in the dirt.
"How does she know his name?" Mina asks.
"Uh-oh. Here comes trouble." Ochaco says as a bear walks towards Izuku.
"Prepare for a mauling." Momo adds.
The five squeeze their eyes shut, waiting for the sound of a high-pitched scream, but it never came. After about a minute of waiting, they open their eyes to be met with the mama bear and cub walking away as the white-haired girl waves.
"Bye, Sequoia!" She speaks. "Hope to see you again someday!"
Mina decides to confront the white-haired girl, so she gets up from the ground and walks over to the white-haired girl.
The girl stands up from where she was sitting with her feet in the water. "Can I help you?"
"Oh, I was just wondering why that bear didn't eat you." Mina states simply.
"Well, before I answer that, could you tell your friends they can stop hiding behind that bush?"
Mina sheepishly turns to the bush. "Uh... you guys can come out, I guess..."
"So, why didn't the bear eat you?" Ochaco asks when they're all out from behind the bush.
"I think we should introduce ourselves first." Momo says before the white-haired girl had the chance to say anything. "I'm Momo Yaoyorozu."
"I'm Mina Ashido."
"K-Koji Koda..."
"Kyoka Jiro." Kyoka says boredly.
"Ochaco Uraraka."
"The name's Tsuyu Asui but call me Tsu."
"Izuku Shigaraki." Izuku says, smiling.
"Okay, now can you answer our question already?" Ochaco asks impatiently.
"Sequoia didn't eat me because one, she's a friend, and two because bears only eat humans if they're starving." Izuku explains.
"And how did you know Yuwai-chan's name?" Mina asks as Izuku bends down and picks the rabbit up.
"Because he told me." Izuku says, stroking the creature's snowy fur.
"Are you on medication? Because humans can't understand animals." Ochaco states.
"Well, clearly some humans can." Izuku says, handing the rabbit over the Koji.
"Could you elaborate?" Momo asks, her finger on her cheek.
"I think it's pretty self-explanatory." Izuku says with a closed-eye smile. Izuku suddenly bows to them. "Please excuse me, I must be on my way."

"Shigaraki. I know I've heard that name before." Momo says, resting on the couch in her living room along with Mina, Koji, Tsu, Kyoka, and Ochaco.
"Yeah, but where?" Tsu asks, staring at the empty fireplace, a puzzled look on her face.
"I'm not sure."
"I have no idea what we're going to do." A voice says from another room.
"Well, we have to do something. If we don't, then Chief Shigaraki will attack us." Another voice says.
"Yes, and we wouldn't want that." The first voice says.
Momo straightens on the couch. "That's where I've heard that name!"
"Huh? Where?" Mina asks.
"Oh, come on. The Shigaraki Tribe? Ever heard of them?" Momo states.
"Aren't they the group of nomadic savages that attack innocent civilians wherever they go?" Kyoka asks.
"I knew something was off about that girl. What was her name again?" Ochaco says.
"Her name was Izuku. And those are just rumors. It's not like there's any proof they're a bunch of savages." Momo says.
