      The chattering of people filled the air as all of you got off the bullet train. You clutched your handbag close to you as you gulped your problems down the drain.

     It was not the time to worry about the problems you face, you came here in Osaka to help those in need and no love problem is going to stop you. A surprised look became present in your face as the cars and trucks you rented were hear early and were waiting patiently for your arrival.

    Your group was perplexed on why almost three vehicles were present.

     "(____), what is your plan next?" Fujio clasped his hand on your shoulder.

     You turned around to greet your group, "We landed here in Yodogawa since it was the stopping station for the bullet train. For us to really get to Ruka, we need to drive there for less than an hour. We'll go ahead while maybe a person or two will look out for the cargo as they transport it from the bullet train to the truck," you explained in one breath.

    You waited for volunteers to raise their hands to stay and to monitor the stuff.

     "I'll do it along with Shouto. . ." Fujio spoke up. Your eyes widened at the mention of the Pro Hero's name. It also seems that Shouto has the same reaction.

     Fujio seemed to take notice of your expression and leaned down to your ear, "I happen to overhear your conversation with Miyu and so I decided to help you."

    A smile made its way to your lips and you thanked him. You faced the crowd once again, "Very well then. Fujio and Shouto will be the ones monitoring the cargo while the rest of us goes ahead to Ruka. We'll split the group into two. . ." and so the splitting commenced.

    Group one consisted of you, Katsuki, Shouji and five of your medical staff. Whilst, group two has Miyu, Eijirou, Denki and the remaining staff in it. The plan was perfect. Two Pro Heroes would be guarding each group whilst Shouto keeps an eye on the stuff.

    Once you've told them their groups, everyone boarded the vans. Before you got in, a certain redhead tapped your shoulder.

     "Are you okay?" he asked with worry laced in his voice.

     You gulped, "Y-yeah. . ."

    Eijirou seemed to not take the bait as he furrowed his brows, "You have to tell me what shaken you up."

   To shorten the conversation, you nodded and smiled at him. You exhaled in relief as you sat on the front seat beside the driver. Eijirou gave you one last look before going and getting in the other van.

    "So kind of you, ma'am. To help those people in Ruka. . ." the driver said while tapping his fingers against the wheel.

     "I've always wanted to help people for free," you answered.

    "I wish more people were like you. . ." he smiled before talking into his walkie-talkie. Probably asking the driver maneuvering the other van if all was set to go. The man nodded before starting the engine.

    The place looked deserted for sure. You expected that the place would be dark and musty. Instead, Ruka looked more like a rural area rather than an urban one.

    Trees littered across the area and some tall grass even obscured the view. Old houses can be seen in a distance and even some kids were playing outside.

     The atmosphere is welcoming and you almost mistook the place for a tourist hotspot for its beauty. It's hard to imagine that the place was once a hideout for villains.
