After a few seconds Hisashi realized who just spoke.

"Inko?!" shouted Hisashi.

"Yes, Inko! And now tell me how Izuku is! Surely you rescued him, right?!" replied Inko really desperate.

"Yes– Yes, I think he is– Actually, I don't know right now, Izuku managed to escape somehow and collapsed at the bar and Kurogiri wanted to call but hasn't yet and–" said Hisashi equally desperate.

When two people were desperate and panicking at the same time then that couldn't end well.

He became a phone call on his other, not private, phone. "It's Kurogiri! I call you back!"

He ended the call without another word.

Kurogiri sighed before dialing Hisashi's number – he was sure that Hisashi was panicking right now because he hadn't called. That was Shigaraki's fault, so don't blame the poor mist man. He knew he himself was already really late, but what could he do when Izuku didn't wake up for over three hours and then Shigaraki desperately wanted to know how Izuku was because he saw the news too and bombarded Kurogiri with questions regarding Izuku's well being. He hadn't answered one of Shigaraki's questions because Kurogiri wouldn't tell anyone unless Hisashi ordered him to. Or Izuku told everyone himself, what was most likely to happen.

But first – the call.

It rang.

"Kurogiri?!" Called it. "How is Izuku?! Why didn't you call earlier?! Was something terribly wrong with Izuku?! You said three or something hours ago that you would talk to him and–"

"Hisashi." The only time when someone came away with interrupting him was in his 'rampages' – as Kurogiri called them when Hisashi was overly worried about Izuku. Well, Kurogiri was the only one who saw and heard him like that so basically he was the only one who could do that.

Hisashi stopped. It seemed like he took a moment to compose himself.

"And? Answer my questions," Yep, back to normal.

"Izuku didn't wake up for three hours and when he woke up, I asked him what happened. He told me–"

"Tell me the details after you told me how Izuku is right now or when he woke up."

"Alright, he had a panic attack–"

"HE HAD A WHAT NOW?!" screeched Hisashi, probably eyes blown wide.

"A panic attack. Probably remembered something traumatic about the whole encounter, I haven't asked him about that though, but I think it has something to do with the escape," explained Kurogiri. "I helped him calm down and then he told me, and I quote 'I feel terrible, everything hurts'"

Hisashi winced on the other end of the line. And again, he, Izuku's father, wasn't there, because of some damn business the league had. But he was All For One and needed to maintain his reputation at least on the outside – the only ones in the league who probably knew that he had a soft heart when it came to Izuku – and knew that Izuku was his son – were obviously Kurogiri, Shigaraki, Jishin, Kouri and Beast. Most villains in the league haven't even met him personally until now.

After that, Hisashi said that Kurogiri should tell him now what Izuku told him besides his well being now.

Even when the situation was really serious, he couldn't help the chuckle that escaped him when Kurogiri told him that Izuku told him that he argued with the villain.
