"I know your comatose state left you restless, but that's hardly an excuse for leaving the hospital young lady."

"I understand, I'm sorry Miss Shuzenji" Y/N replied, sitting on the hospital bed as the school nurse checked her vitals.
When she got word that the flower user had left the hospital, she quickly left the school the following day to see the girl personally, which happened to only leave the older woman saddened.

Recovery Girl had known Kanae and Shinobu since they were children, the Kocho sister's parents were amazing doctors before their tragic deaths, leaving their legacy's with their two daughters.
So Chiyo was very familiar with their excitement when taking Y/N in, she was there the day the once frail girl was dropped off at the butterfly estate. She was there during the rehabilitation, where she was learning her smile instead of her broken and lost look.
But that look was back, and the woman had no idea how to fix it.

"Please don't blame her, she was under my care" Enji said from the corner of the room, his blue eyes looking over to Tsukauchi, who had sighed softly.

"Still doesn't look too good, I'm trying to pull some strings to get the trial pushed back some more, but since you're well enough, they expect you at the courthouse today" the detective said.

"They're not even a little sympathetic?" Aizawa muttered, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"Now be honest dear, how does the prosthetic feel?"

"It hurts when I move it, and it feels like my nerves lock up at times" Y/N replied, her soft eyes on the old woman, who had the metal right arm in her grasp as she studied it.

"I tried to size and connect it while you were asleep so you wouldn't have to deal with it while you were awake, it made it difficult to connect it to your liking. I can see it's not exactly lined up now that you're awake, I'll take it off and quickly get another model in manufacturing."

Y/N nodded once, watching as she carefully undid the arm with a few tools, leaving the severed spot bare.

"I already got a lawyer picked out for you kid, everything will be okay" Aizawa said, approaching the bed as the girl got off after Recovery Girls permission, slipping on a jacket with the help of her homeroom teacher.

"It's not going to be easy, but you have a lot of people in your corner" Recovery Girl said, reaching to gently grab onto Y/N's left hand.
"You just don't see it yet."

Y/N looked at Chiyo for a few moments before trailing her eyes down.
She felt like she had let all of them down.

"Let's get going then, the car's here" Tsukauchi said softly, motioning his head towards the door.

The car parked outside of the courthouse where many flashing cameras and news reporters crowded. Their lenses immediately going to the car, already snapping photos so they could catch Y/N the moment the doors were opened.

"Doesn't her age protect her from news stations and media attention?" Enji asked, his glare pointing to the tinted windows that hid them from the crowd.

"Her age was dismissed the moment it became a murder trial" Teukauchi whispered, trying to keep his words light for the sake of the young teen, but it still sounded pretty bad.

"Endeavor and I will step out first to get the crowd to back up, Y/N you'll walk behind us with Tsukauchi following you. Sure they'll still get some pictures of you, but it won't be as bad" Aizawa said.
The two heroes opened their doors and stepped out, immediately going to Y/N's side and pushing the crowd back.
