The previous chaos of the forest had left the group scattered and desperate. With the Bakugo Escort Squad still reeling from the sudden disappearance of Katsuki and Fumikage, Y/N's sharp eyes scanned the forest for any sign of their missing comrades. The students had launched themselves into the air, soaring through the dense foliage to gain traction and speed, all while trying to piece together their next move.
**Recap of the Last Chapter:**
Mr. Compress had managed to capture Katsuki and Fumikage, transforming them into small marbles. With the League of Villains' retreat underway, the Bakugo Escort Squad had clashed with Mr. Compress, their determination driving them to the brink. Y/N, who had joined the group, had successfully spotted the marbles and informed the others, leading to a chaotic aerial pursuit. But in the heat of the moment, just as it seemed they were about to rescue their friends, Y/N found themselves in a perilous situation.
**end of recap**
As they soared through the air, Y/N spotted the glint of the marbles in Mr. Compress's hand, his smug grin reflecting in their polished surface. "There they are!" Y/N shouted, pointing towards the villain. The others quickly adjusted their trajectory, all eyes locked on the small objects that held their friends captive.
Izuku, still driven by the plan they had devised, focused on the target. "We need to get those marbles back!"
Y/N, acting with urgency, positioned themselves to intercept Mr. Compress. As they drew closer, their mind raced. "We have to do this quickly. There's no time to waste."
Mr. Compress, realizing he was being targeted, began to move, but Y/N was faster. With a well-timed leap, Y/N tackled Mr. Compress, sending them both tumbling to the ground. The marbles slipped from the villain's grasp, and Y/N quickly snatched them up, a triumphant grin spreading across their face.
But the victory was short-lived.
"Not so fast, hero," Mr. Compress sneered, recovering quickly. With a flick of his wrist, he released the marbles from Y/N's hand. The force knocked Y/N backward, their grip loosening as the marbles were freed.
Katsuki and Fumikage's forms reappeared in the air, suspended for a brief moment before they began to fall. Y/N scrambled to their feet, determination in their eyes. "I can't let them get captured again!"
Without hesitation, Y/N shoved Katsuki out of harm's way, knowing he was the primary target. But in doing so, they found themselves caught in the grasp of Dabi, who had been waiting for an opportunity. The flames from Dabi's Quirk seared the air around them, his cold blue eyes meeting Y/N's with a mix of surprise and interest.
"Well, this is unexpected," Dabi muttered, tightening his grip. "Guess we're taking you instead."
Katsuki, who had been shoved aside, stared in shock as Y/N was pulled into Dabi's hold. "Y/N!" he shouted, anger and confusion warring in his expression. He started to move, but his legs felt like they were glued to the ground. He had been saved... but at what cost?
