Kirishima knelt beside Sora, panic rising in his chest. Her eyes were dim, and the fire that once sparkled in them was fading. "Stay with me, Sora!" he shouted, his voice full of fear. He pressed his hands against her wounds, trying to stop the bleeding, but blood soaked through his fingers. He felt like he had to do something, anything, to save her.

THe fights were mostly ended. The heroes and the villains were only left to a few members. Toga and Dabi managed to win their fight against their enemies but were also hurt strong. They both then got grabbed by Nomus and brought over to the almost dying Sora. "Don't give up!" Toga cried, her voice shaking. She held Sora's hand tightly, her usual cheerful smile replaced with worry. Dabi stood a few steps back, his flames flickering, anger and helplessness clear on his face. Spinner shifted nervously, wanting to help but feeling useless.

There was a huge pressure wave, and suddenly, out of nowhere, there stood Shigaraki. He broke free from the prison in the air. The heroes talked about how Sora was defeated but was also laying in her death. After that, Shigaraki turned into a real monster. He broke free from the heroes and managed to escape the flying prison, where he fought against Izuku, Bakugo, Best Jeanist...

"Get away from her!" he roared, eyes blazing with determination. The moment he landed beside Sora, the air around him crackled with a dangerous energy, and the other people who were surrounding Sora got pushed away a few meters. Kirishima's heart raced as he watched Shigaraki kneel next to her, his hands trembling as he reached out.

"Don't leave us, Sora," Shigaraki whispered, his voice softer than anyone had ever heard from him. "I need you. We need you." He glanced at Kirishima, then back at Sora, the weight of his emotions pressing heavily on him.

Dabi stepped forward, his flames roaring back to life. "What are you doing? She needs help!" He felt the heat of the moment, knowing that time was running out.

Shigaraki's expression hardened, but there was a flicker of vulnerability in his eyes. He pressed his hand against her wound. "I won't let her die. I won't lose anyone else." There was a moment when just raw energy was seen.

As the energy flowed into Sora, Kirishima watched, hope battling with despair. Would it be enough? Would they save her in time?

As the energy coursed through Sora, a surge of warmth filled her body. She felt weightless, as if she were floating between two worlds. Slowly, she began to regain consciousness, her eyes fluttering open.

The first thing she saw was Shigaraki's face, inches away from hers. His eyes were wide with worry, filled with an intensity she had never seen before. "Sora, please," he urged, his voice shaky. "Stay with me."

A sharp pain shot through her chest, causing her to gasp. She instinctively reached for the wound, her fingers trembling. "What happened?" she murmured, confusion swirling in her mind.

"You were... you were dying," Kirishima choked out, relief flooding his voice. He was still kneeling beside her, eyes bright with tears. "But Shigaraki—he did something. He saved you."

Sora blinked, taking in the scene around her. Toga was by her side, eyes wide with hope, while Dabi stood close, his flames flickering as if reflecting his own inner turmoil. Spinner looked on, a mix of worry and relief etched on his face.

"Stay back," Shigaraki warned, his voice low and protective as he held her gaze. "You're safe now. I won't let anyone hurt you again."

A sense of warmth washed over her, pushing back the darkness that had threatened to consume her. "Tomura... thank you," she whispered, her heart racing as she realized the depth of what he had done for her.

Since that day, five years have passed. We were, of course, all sent to jail, but because we went to prison without fighting back and because society treated us badly, we were released half a year ago. We were actually supposed to stay another 15 years, but then All Might visited and managed to get us out. He said we deserved another chance.

Now, can you believe where we all live? We all live in the old bar where I was taken when I got kidnapped or where Dabi and Toga joined us, where I watched Compress's tricks and played video games with Tomura. We renovated it and turned it into our home.

Compress actually survived. The whole league often goes to visit Twice's grave. We made one after the fight. He was very important to all of us, and we truly miss him. But we're all looking towards the future.
