Heller, do you like the drawing I made?  I feel like he doesn't look angry enough...

Anyways, BEGINNING OF PART TWO MY DUDES

A week in and Deku had gotten more accustomed to her fellow rebels. She had learned that, surprisingly, Kirishima and Bakugou had been dating for a while now. It had come as quite a shock to the green haired girl when she had been engrossed in conversation with the spiky haired teen.

She had also come to know most of the other's names and positions. There was Toya and Bakugou who she had known from the start. Then there was Kirishima, Todoroki's person knight. Momo, the daughter of one of the king's closest allies, was a trusty source of political information and not only that but is very intelligent. There's a few other knights from the royal guards such as, Kaminari, Sero, Ojiro, Iida, and Mina. Then there was Shinso, a somewhat shady traveling tradesmen, who would stop by every once and awhile sharing info on other kingdoms. There was Uraraka, a bubbly energetic girl, who essentially shared a role with Kirishima, as she was Todoroki's person maid and focused on gathering information about the prince's affairs. And of course there were other members but Deku was still getting to know them.

As for Deku's schedule, it remained uneventful. The first few days she had been ordered to rest and regain her strength, so she spent most of her time resting in a small bedroom tucked away in the corner of the old building. She and Toya were normally the only ones who would stay here, as everyone else had homes or places to return to, so even after she had recovered she was bored most of the time. She had tried to explore the place when possible but there were only two floors, and it was a relatively small building. She had mapped out that there was a meeting room, multiple bedrooms, and something similar to a nurse's office.

And that would be all that had really happened since Deku was broken out of prison. So now she sat in her room, preparing herself for a meeting that regularly happened once a week. She was said that Toya would come get her when it was about to start. That left her with no option but to stay in her room, pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Hey Izuku!" Toya called from the other side of the door, snapping her back into reality, and almost giving her a heart attack at the same time.

"Ah! Yes Toya?" Deku called, running over to the door and opening it.

"I told you it's Dabi now." He replied.

"Ah that's right, sorry!" Deku said apologetically. She had forgotten that he as going by Dabi these days. He had approached her after the last meeting to as if she could call him the nickname for personal reasons.

"It's fine, just try and remember. Anyways, the meetings bout to start. Come on." Dabi said, nodding his head in the direction of the meeting room.

"Mkay." Deku said, following the taller man out of her room.

Walking into the room Deku was surprised to find that everyone was already there. She found Kirishima, her currently closest friend, other than Toya, and stood next to him. They quietly exchanged greetings before focusing their attention on Toya.

With everyone present said person decided to start with a simple, "Anyone have some new info they'd like to share?" When silence was the only response Toya continued after clapping his hands together. "Great! Well then I'll get straight to the point, I think it's about time we talk to Todoroki about our situation."

"Wait what!?" Deku spoke up.

"Well you see we've been thinking about trying to get him on our side. We weren't completely sure if he would be in for it, even if he does hate his dad. Kirishima said that he would, but now, with how King Enji handled you, I think he'd definitely be interested. I'm pretty sure that whole situation was the push he needed to understand just how horrible Enji is." Toya explained.

"Oh..." Deku said. She had gotten that Todoroki hadn't had any control over what happened to her, but she still just couldn't trust him. Would he really want to join a rebellion, against his own father nonetheless, just because of how Enji treated her? Or was there something more going on? Deku wasn't sure.

"So what do you guys think?" Toya asked.

"It's about time." Kirishima replied.

"Well I know how you feel Kirishima, you've been pushing for this for months." Toya said teasingly, making Kirishima laugh a bit. "What about everyone else?"

"I agree!" Uraraka said.

"Yeah, me too!" Kaminari replied.

"I think there's a high chance that Todoroki will be more cooperative now. We should definitely give it a shot." Momo agreed.

"Agreed!" Iida said.

With the two smartest people on board everyone else started speaking their opinions, most of them being in Toya's favor. Soon everyone had voiced their beliefs and the only one left was Deku. Toya, noticing this, asked, "What do you think Izuku?"

Deku, for the second time that delay, pulled out from her thoughts, looking up sharply. After taking a second to realize what he was talking about Deku said, "I think we should try it."

"And with that, we will proceed with the plan. Now how do we get him back here?" Toya asked.

"I can get em here!" Kirishima volunteered, his hand shooting up at the same time. "He trusts me."

"Well then, I'll leave it up to you." Toya said delightedly, and with that the meeting ended.

After a few minutes of watching as Kirishima tried to convince Bakugou to give him a goodbye kiss, Deku headed towards Toya.

"Hey To-Dabi?" Deku asked, correcting herself halfway through.

"What's up?" The scarred man asked.

"Would Todoroki really want to join just because of how King Enji treated me? Or is there something else... I don't know... going on?" Deku questioned.

"Oh, I guess he never told you, huh?" Toya replied.

"Told me what?"

"He uh, he's part of a messed up family. King Enji 'created' him, and the rest of his children, so he could have a powerful heir. Todoroki ended up having the strongest quirk and Enji trained his ass off. Enji also abused his wife, and when the queen got scared enough she, um, she burned todoroki's left eye. That's how he got that scar of his." Toya explained. "So he already hated his dad a lot."

"Oh my god, that's awful." Deku's said. "What happened to his mom?"

"She was killed, for harming her son and the heir to the Endeavour Kingdom." Dabi said gravely.

"Seriously? That's so cruel." Deku shook her head in a displeased manner.

"Yeah, it really is." Dabi replied.

"Wait, how do you know so much about this?" Deku asked curiously. "I'm sure everything that had to do with his mom was made public, but how would you know all the other stuff?"

"Um, Kirishima?" Toya tried.

"That was a horrible lie, and now I'm even more curious." Deku teased.

"I'll tell you some other time, Kay?" Toya promised.

"Okay..." Deku said suspiciously.

"I prom..." Toya started, being distracted by a scruffy looking man who entered the room. "Shinso? What's going on? Weren't you gonna be out till the next meeting?" He asked with a voice laced with concerned.

"I have some very important news." The purpled haired man said before continuing, "All Might wants to talk to you."
