"Gah!" Bakugou spoke, spinning around to face a man with the face of a rat. He wore pointed black shades, so you couldn't see his eyes. Appearing to demonstrated his strength, he picked up an iron bar and bit right through it with one chomp.
Bakugou flew above them, blasting the ground with his quirk, and landing on an unsmoothed ledge in the alley.
The zombie guy moved the spores up to Bakugou, sticking him to the wall.
"Damn! I'm stuck!" He mumbled.
He tried blasting the moss with his quirk to no avail. The rat man slowly started to climb the wall. "So kid, you got any money 'er what? We've been lurking in these alleys outside that fancy school of yours for weeks, hope'n to one day get 'er hands on wanna you kids!" he spoke.
"I told 'em none of yall'd be dumb enough to come 'cross this here alley, but looks like I's was wrong!" the other cackled.
"So what? You got any money on ya?"
"Tch!" Bakugou responded. The rat bit Bakugou's arm, nearly breaking it.
Bakugou screamed to himself, as to not show too much weakness.
"Hurt huh?" the rat teased.
"Ya got money, o'er 'ell do it again!"
Bakugou didn't speak.
Just before the rat man sank his teeth in again, Bakugou closed his eyes, got realley cold. When he opened them, he, as well as the hobos, were shrouded in ice.
"Yaoyorozu! Contact the authorities! I'll keep 'em busy for a while!" Todoroki spoke at the base of the alley.
"Right!" she enacted his command.
Todoroki looked up at Bakugou who was quivering from anger.
"D-damn it!" he shouted. "Why the hell does everyone always interfere! I can handle it myself!"
"Bakugou! You could've died!"
"Shut up, you half-and-half bastard! Ugh! I can't believe I keep getting my ass saved! If I'm to beat Deku and surpass All Might... I'll never get passed them this way!"
The villains were startled by Bakugou's sudden outburst.
"What is with this kid?!" Rambled rat-head.
"Never mind that son of a bitch!" scolded moss-man. "This other kid is super strong! And think! The cops'll be 'er any minute now!"
"Oh shit! You're right!"
"Hold on Kanade."
"Don't use my real name!"
"The gig's up, dumbass."
"Whatever. What did you want."
    "What did you think this Baku-kid was talkin about when he said half-'n-half?"
    Todoroki intruded on the conversation.
"Just wait till the cops come to find out," he said.
Just minutes later, cops arrived on the scene (as since it was technicalley off campus, the school guards couldn't do much). Momo lured the cops over to the alley.
"Nice job catching these villains, kids! I'd expect no less from the students of UA!" one of the officers said.
Another pointed out, "Hey! Isn't that the kid that won the tournament?"
Bakugou was glad they remembered his good feet, though he still felt himself unworthy.
The other cops chatted back, "Yeah! He's the same kid that was caught in the ooze monster, and captured by the league of villains!"
"You think this kid'd be claustrophobic by now."
Katuski called down, "Shut up!"
The police rolled their eyes.
One officer spoke, "She told me that you, uh, Todoroki could get these guys down from here, too, right?"
Todoroki nodded.
Katsuki sneered and looked at the criminals. "Get ready to see the other half of this bastard."
The villains looked at each other in horror as Todoroki blasted flames at them.
The moss man said, "This kid's a monster!" as he was taken in by the authorities along with his accomplice.
As the tide started to settle here, and Bakugou dropped from the alley wall, he could hear Momo praising TOdoroki for his work, and her surprise of him using his fire, and how he looks "awesome" while using it. Bakugou scoffed.
"Hey Bakugou?" asked Todoroki.
"What?"
"What were you doing in that alley anyways?
Bakugou froze. "I-it was nothing. Just shut up. I gotta go home."
"Where you eavesdropping on us?" infered Momo.
"Wha-! No..."
Bakugou stormed off before another question could be asked. Bakugou is still unclear as why he gave into this, but the only reason he turned around to head back is because he remembered what Momo had said about confessing.
He began, "I'd like to meet you at the school gates tomorrow morning half an hour before school starts," (speaking to Momo).
Momo panicked, and said, "S-sure. May I ask why?"
"No." And with that, Bakugou left once more.
Todoroki was curious of these circumstances, and intrigued by of what was to come, came to the school thirty one minutes early, hoping to have just enough time to find a hiding spot to catch Bakugou and Momo before they meet.
