The Girl With Many Quirks: Lucky Star

C H A P T E R 2 8

THIRD PERSON POV

Midnight stepped up with her hands resting on her hips, sighing out of defeat. They had let that mysterious intruder escape with four students, all from Class 1-A. She had just been filled in about Aizawa and Shouto Todoroki, and the mission for rescuing Asuna Komiko.

"What a mess." She rubbed the back of her head. There was only one thing to do since all the pro-heroes would need to stay to repair the damages and care for the wounded...send the Big Four.

"I need Yoichi Hiruma, Kazuya Miyuki, Hitoka Yachi, and Karma Akabane." she ordered, and someone was sent to retrieve them. All Might joined her side, a very sad look lay deep in his eyes. Midnight didn't know why, perhaps he felt responsible for losing the students; she patted his bony shoulder and grinned. "Don't worry, we're sending help to go after that ship. If what you say is true about Asuna Komiko, than its a good chance that thing came from wherever their keeping her. Aizawa and Todoroki are probably already infiltrating the place. Everything is going to turn out okay." All Might didn't say anything, but slightly smiled.

When the Big Four arrived, Midnight approached them to fill them in on what has happened and why they were summoned. "This is not a drill or field practice. This is a real mission with real lives at stake here. I assume you all are confident in your own and each other's abilities. You've run plenty of simulations, so you know how to be a team. The U.A Board is counting on you four. Are you up for it?"

"No sweat." Akabane rested his hands behind his head and stretched his back. "All we got to do is sneak in somewhere, team up with Eraserhead and the Ice-Fire guy, save five students, and sneak back out. Easy." Miyuki pondered over the information and details. "Karma is right. With the intail we have now, we already have a 84% chance of succeeding." Yachi clapped her hands together, relieved. "Well, I'll go with those odds!" Hiruma tsked his tongue and smirked, stuffing his hands into his pockets. "Ok, kids, if we're done here, we better start saving. That ship is probably already back at its base and torturing the poor babies."

And so, the Big Four headed out.

ASUNA'S POV

It was only a matter of time until those bastards returned with my friends...

That bloody truth serum...I guess he had five years to prefect all his tricks and toys. Then there's that screwy liquid that neutralizes quirks. Well, more like cancels...my body felt totally weak. As if all those quirks I had stored in me were my power source. Now, I felt extremely tired all the time.

Hours seemed to have passed when the doors to my room, aka cell, opened and four brutal-looking men each carrying one bulky sack staggered in. They turned theirs bags over and dumped out the contents...

My friends...

"Uraraka! Deku! Kirishima! Katsuki!" I fell to my knees and touched each one of them. The doors were locked once again and I was left with my unconscious friends. I slipped off my warm-up jacket and tucked it under Uraraka's head. I took off my shirt, keeping my tank-top on, and rested Kirishima's head on that one. When I touched Deku, his eyes fluttered open.

"Deku!?" I reached out and pulled him in my arms. "You don't know how glad I am to see you awake!" Deku's eyes were wide when I released him. His body shook as he pointed at me, as if I was a ghost. "How are you here? That ship didn't take you because you were already—oh, damn...so it's the same organization..."

"I'm afraid so..." I sighed, and, not having anything else to cushion the hard, cold floor, I carefully laid Bakugo's head on my lap, lightly stroking his forehead. "I'm so sorry I got you all  forced into this...that bloody bastard did this to me, and now he's punishing me. I can't even use any of my quirks because of that stupid invention of his that cancel quirks, so you are powerless. I guranteed he used it on you four; that's why you guys are out of commission..." I looked at Deku with a curious expression. "How are you awake already? Aren't you exhausted from basically having your quirk sucked out of you?"

Deku seemed to tense up under the question, but then relaxed and seemed to be pondering over it, as if to come up with some reasonable explanation. He then shrugged. "I have no idea." But I could tell in his eyes, he was hiding something. I decided to not push on it and smiled. "Well, I'm glad I have someone to at least talk to..."

"I'm sure Mr. Aizawa and Todoroki are on their wa—"

I shot forward and slammed my hand over his mouth so fast, I almost dropped Bakugo off my lap. I paused and held him there for a long moment until leaning forward and speaking in a soft, low voice. "Be careful what you say...there are cameras everywhere." I stopped as my heart began to beat faster and faster. "Aizawa and Shouto are here?..." Deku nodded and I removed my hand slowly. "They came on their own to rescue me?" Another nod.

"Damn it..." I sniffed and rubbed my eyes furiously. "I knew it he would do that I ever fell into Evil's hands again..."

"What do you mean?" Deku asked, but I shook my head, unable to answer. "So what do we do until...something happens?" I sighed and removed a stray hair from Bakugo's forhead.

"We wait."
