"Don't die in there, (Y/N)." Your red-haired classmate, Kirishima, told you before slapping you hard on the shoulder. You winced at the bruise to come. He didn't mean it, in reality Kirishima was just nervous; not only for the mission ahead, but you as well.

"I don't plan on it."

You were going to be at the center of chaos while also trying not to get caught. The plan, since Chisaki called you out to assumably hang out with Eri, was once you were given the signal, you would take Eri with you and find your way out without being noticed. Everyone's top priority was that little girl and you were in charge of that.

It was 8:30 in the evening when all of the Pro Heroes and work study students were called to Sir Nighteye's agency. You and your classmates were huddled in your own corner, talking out strategies. Midoriya and Uraraka were speaking about all the fun things they would do with Eri once she becomes familiarized with them. Meanwhile, Mirio caught your eye with his nearly blinding pearly whites.

"You sure you can handle it?" Mirio asked, gaining the attention of Nejire, Amajiki, and Kirishima. When he noticed the frown on your face he quickly tried to rearrange his words, "I mean—you can but, are you sure you won't need any help?"

Amajiki muttered to his friend, but loud enough for everyone to hear, "Dude you've already asked that like three times."

"It's okay, Amajiki. Mirio is just trying to look out for me, but I'm positive." You said, almost sounded too confident with your answer. "Besides, it'll be easier if there were less people. Eri would have to warm up to you before she goes anywhere with someone."

"Makes sense." The blonde nodded with a determined expression. Mirio used his hands as he talked, "When Midoriya and I ran into her, she seemed timid and shy."

"At first, Eri was shy, but she quickly warmed up to me once we started talking about My Little Pony." Your reference to the child's show sent the group into giggles. You had to admit that you still loved that show now as much as you did when you were a kid.

"Are you sure you know the way out after you get her?" Kirishima asked, he nervously played with his fingers, as if the questioned had been haunting his mind for the past few minutes. He couldn't stop thinking of all the possible outcomes, specifically ones where you fail. Before you could answer, he added, "If anything goes wrong—you have your radio, right? Call for me. I'll find you if anything goes wrong in the slightest."

The Pro Heroes gave you guys each ear pieces to stay in contact with one another. It probably was a bad idea because they wouldn't the able to hear what you guys were saying, unless one of you relayed the message.
