Defeat.

They lost.

The heroes lost.

Not only for the first time against villains.

But they lost their friends as well.

The villains had gotten what they wanted and won the day.

Kaminari was excited when Midoriya was awake and he led the rest of his classmates into his hospital room.

"Did everyone from Class A come to visit?" Midoriya asked quietly.

"No, Jirou and Hagakure were knocked unconscious from that villain's poisonous gas. And Yaoyarozu took a pretty bad hit to the head, she's being hospitalized here, but I just found out that she just woke up yesterday." Iida explained to Midoriya gravely. "So it's just us, but we wish the whole class could be here."

"Only fifteen of us for now." Uraraka added.

"Because Bakugou and Hailey are gone." Todoroki concluded.

"He knows Todoroki!" Mina exclaimed nervously.

Midoriya's hazed over eyes became clear and began to water at the reminder that he failed to protect his friends.

"All Might told me that there would be people beyond our reach, some that we can't protect, even if we want to." Midoriya said quietly, "That's why we have to save the people that we can reach. I-I was so close to be able to save them. Kacchan was so close to my reach a-and Hailey, I didn't even look back to see if she was safe. I-I needed to save them, I had to. That's the entire reason that I have my quirk." Tears began to stream down Midoriya's cheeks as his vision blurred from the tears. "I-it's just like Mr Aizawa said. My body.. I-it didn't move. I couldn't save someone who was right in front of me."

"Alright, then let's go get them." Kirishima suddenly said, solemnly.

Everyone turned to the redhead in surprise.

"I was here yesterday, so was Todoroki. When we were on our way to visit you, we saw All Might talking to Yaoyarozu. She made a tracker onto the Nomu." Kirishima explained.

"And I was informed by my father that Hailey's mother had put trackers in a pair of earrings that Hailey is currently wearing. He never told me the location though." Todoroki added.

"I see, so you're going to ask Yaoyarozu to make another receiver." Iida said, catching onto the boys' plan.

"What if it does?" Todoroki questioned, feeling Iida's disapproval.

"We should listen to what All Might said!" Iida exclaimed, raising his voice, "We have to leave this to the professionals! It's not the right time for us to get involved! Idiots!"

"Maybe! But all I know is that at camp, I couldn't do anything!" Kirishima shouted emotionally, "I heard that my friends were targeted and I just stood by, helpless! So if I stand by and do nothing now, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CALL MYSELF A HERO?!"
