I Knew You Once (Izuchako)

Chapter 1

Three years after Izuku left U.A

Uraraka's POV

   It's been three years since he left, and I still think about that afternoon almost every day. Why? It was three years ago. We're all pro's now....well except for Deku.

   I have this uneasy feeling about it. I tried to call him for the first few months but...he never answered. After awhile he blocked my number....

   When I told Mr. Aizawa what had happened, he immediately put Deku on a missing child list and went to go look for him. Long story short he had no luck in finding him.

"Uraraka. Uraraka?

Uraraka!"

"Ah! Oh, it just you Iida." I looked up at him from where I was sitting and laughed nervously

"Why were you so spaced out?" He sounded worried.

"O-oh um uh its nothing" I try to find something other to look at other than his face.

"...ok...but the agency has a mission for us." He still looked worried but luckily he stopped asking questions.

AN: Iida and Uraraka are in the same hero agency as well as Momo, Todoroki, and Bakugou.

"Oh really?! It's been awhile since they've assigned us together on anything." I try to forget about Deku by using this to redirect my brain. It..didnt really work. 

"Yeah it's nice to work with friends again, lately they've been pairing me with people I don't know." Iida seemed really annoyed about this, I don't know why, it's good to work with new people.

"Well we get to work together now! Do you know where we're going?" I hope that it's nothing to big.

"Just some new criminal stirring up trouble. Apparently they've been making illegal trades." Iida didnt seem worried about it so that's good.

"Oh it doesn't seem like to big of a job, we'll just be in and out." This job seemed perfect to get my find of of Deku. 

      Time skip to the mission

Urakraka POV

Iida and I where walking to where the criminal was suspected to be located, but there was no sign of him yet.

"Hey Iida, do you know where this criminal is supposed to be?" I was starting to get nervous that we hadn't found him yet.

He looked back at me "Yeah I think they should be ju-"

BANG

Iida moved just in time as the bullet went past him. It seemed to have come from a dark alleyway. He looked back to where I was stunned.

"We found him." Then he ran into the alley, I soon followed.

When we got there, we couldn't see anyone. Ethier they had fled or they were hiding behind one of the dozen or so trashcans. I start to scan the them with Iida. That's when I see it. Just the tip, but very much there. There was a small portion of a finger sticking out from behind one of trashcans.

I very softly tap Iida on the shoulder making sure not to spook him. When he turns around I look sideways at the trashcan and make a small motion with my head. Hoping that he sees it too. He gives me a small nod acknowledging the fingertip.

I use the sign language we learned in training to tell him the plan. We would pretend to leave since the criminal obviously was playing defense, then I would turn around a sprint to the can and make it float. As well as the criminal and his gun. After the criminal reached a "safe height"  would drop them. I would do this while Iida ran to the other side of him blocking his exit.

It was risky but we couldn't just leave him there. If it worked they would be hopefully left defenseless. Then Iida could hold him down while I called the police to arrest them.

Iida reminded me that we dont know what type of quirk they have. But we didn't have many other options. So he agreed to it.

We started to run out of the alleyway acting as though we had given up. When we heard the trashcan move we both turned around.

I sprint towards the trashcan and make it float revealing the criminal. They were stunned for a split second giving me the chance to dart in and touch them making them float.

With extreme luck, I managed to touch his wrist while I was grabbing his gun using the technique I used in my internship. Just this time it was a lot more risky because of his gun.

He floated up about 5 or 6ft then I dropped him. He probably sprained something but he was alive. Luckily they passed out. Then they're nails started growing?! They're quirk maybe? Not very powerful though. I looked up at Iida and he just shrugged. Then he came to where they were laying and held them down just in case they woke up while I called to cops.

After 2 or 3 minutes the cops show up and start to load him into the car carefully after I told them what happend. As they were situating him in the back seat, he mumbled

"Sorry boss..I'll get it next time."

Wait...what! Boss?! This guy isn't a loner! Did I hear that right?

"EVERYONE FREEZE!"
