(Opening Theme: My Hero Academia Opening 1-The Day Performed by Porno Graffiti)

A full hour had passed and the dust had nearly settled now that most of the army of Villains were rounded up. They had no way to track the three Villains that were left accounted for, and the ones behind the attack. Most of the students were left uninjured, except for Reina and Izuku who had taken the most severe hit. They were both immediately hospitalized along with the teachers that had been wounded from the fight.

Despite the fact that the students were told to go home, Katsuki along with Floyd stayed behind. They had successfully gotten the collar off of her, though she had a faint syringe marks were seen on her neck as the doctor treated her for the wounds. Katsuki soon came into the room, just as the doctor finished bandaging her up.

"How you holding up?" Katsuki asked as he put his hands in his pocket.

"I'm not sure..." Reina replied honestly as she rubbed her eyes a little, "... But thanks for asking..."

"Your friends gonna be alright." The doctor said to Katsuki, "Thankfully her wounds are nothing to serious and she didn't over do it with her Quirk. She'll make a speedy recovery." Katsuki didn't say anything to the doctor, as he just nodded his head. It hadn't been long before the nurse called the doctor.

"I'll leave you two alone." The Doctor said before he took his leave.

Katsuki took a stool that had been nearby and sat just at the side of her bed. "The others..." Reina said, "... Are they okay?"

"They're all fine. Deku's fine too." Katsuki said having a foot rest on his knee as he sat, "Any word on your Guardian?"

Reina's hands trembled a little as she struggled to form her words. She stopped shaking as Katsuki put his hand on top of hers, "Breathe. You're okay."

Reina nodded her head a little as she took a deep breath. She soon replied, "... He told me, he just got out of surgery. They said he'll make it, and he'll be expected to recover in the coming month..."

"Than why the hell do you look so damn worried?" Katsuki said in his usual tone, "You should be smiling."

"I know I should, but... I can't right now." Reina said to him as she reached for her neck that was bandaged, "I guess I'm still shook up about what happened."

Katsuki didn't say anything as Reina let out a shaky breath this time, as her hand started to shake again,"I still can't believe it... Villains managed to get into one of the most secured schools in the world... I thought that kind of thing only happened in movies... Looks like a lot of us were proven wrong today..."

"Like that's ever stopped you before." The blonde spiky haired teen said.

She merely huffed at this, like it had been a chuckle, "Yeah, but back than it was just the one group... Now it was, a whole army of them..."

Katsuki adjusted himself in his seat as he thought back to the Villain in particular; The one his comrades called Shigaraki. He remembered what he called her, how he looked at her. It was almost as if he knew her, and it made him pissed, though he didn't want to make her upset, since he could tell she had still been traumatized of the whole the thing.

"That man...." Reina started to say, "... With the hands... He knew my name... I don't know how but he knew it..."

"Hey..." Katsuki started to say.

"... How did he know me? Why did he know me?" She said before she scratched at her head, "What the hell did he want with me!?"

"Hey..."
