"What the hell do you mean you're leaving?" Bakugou asked, not looking happy in the slightest.

"Monoma wants me to go with him, but only for a while. I'll be back before you know it." (Y/n) ran his fingers through his hair. 

He didn't want to leave, but something told him things would turn out worse than they could if he didn't. (Y/n) wasn't sure what about the trip made him so uneasy, but whatever it was kept him from trying to find a way for Bakugou, Kirishima, Todoroki, and (Y/n) [younger] to come. 

"I thought we were finally fucking done with people leaving, because that always goes so well," Bakugou grumbled.

"What do you mean?" the teen asked, just now hearing of this.

"I'll tell you later," Todoroki said quickly. "Do you have to leave, (Y/n)?"

"I feel like something is up, so... I feel obligated to go. I won't leave if you don't want me to, though," (Y/n) said.

Todoroki was quiet for a moment as Kirishima gave him a concerned. They didn't need to start this cycle again, especially after how long it took to recover the last time. He wanted to speak up against the idea of (Y/n) going, but Kirishima noticed how this was going. This was Todoroki's decision, and by the look in his eyes, he wasn't having as much trouble with the thought as he seemed to be.

Bakugou looked between Todoroki and (Y/n), sighing quietly. He didn't really have a say in the matter, but it looked like Todoroki might make the wrong decision. 

"If it's really bad... then yeah. Go. You have to be back in less than a week, though." 

"I don't really understand what's going on. Should be listening to this conversation?" (Y/n) asked.

"It's cool, we'll explain better after the whole ordeal is over and this guy gets back," Kirishima uttered.

"About that." (Y/n) inhaled deeply. "I have a bad feeling about the next couple of weeks. I think you guys should leave."

"Leave?"

"Get out of Japan. Maybe try to get in contact with Mina, Hanta, or Denki? I know that phones haven't really been working well here lately, but I'll find a way to you guys."

"Where is this intuition coming from?"

"I... don't know... but please. I'll even find a way to meet you guys right before I leave."

"Promise?"

"Sure, kid. Promise." (Y/n) smiled. "I'll see you on the other side, yeah?"

"Hey, Risa? Are you still here?" Deku called quietly, stepping into his apartment.

He heard a hum from her bedroom and sighed. He really wished she would evacuate, but for some odd reason, Risa constantly refused. Deku didn't see the point in her resistance. There was no point to prove and no one was being helped in any way. If he could, he'd just make her leave himself. She'd be safer that way.

All For One had been constantly sending threats to them from random locations. He hadn't acted on any of them yet, but he was such a huge terrorizer that they had to take him seriously. If Deku was honest with himself, that was part of the reason that he wanted Risa to leave so bad. What if All For One really did act and Risa got involved? What would he do if she got hurt?

Since the original threat had been put out years ago, things had slowly started to go to shit. There was no way around it, he was destroying the place. None of the heroes could find him, though, so there was nothing they could do at the moment. We're all aware of how much faith Japan is losing in us heroes.

Day after day when he would come home from patrol, she'd be there. Whether Risa would be sitting her room or watching television in the living room, she was there when he got home. That is, until she wasn't. 

Deku had been hoping she'd leave, but it hurt that she never said goodbye. He couldn't get in contact with her, so all he could do was hope for the best. Several of the heroes he knew also knew her, so hopefully, she'd get away alright. What was the worst that could happen, anyway?

As he settled down that night, Deku felt uneasy. The apartment was far too empty and quiet, even if it was dark out. He dared to say he felt lonely without Risa there, but it was better for both of them that she'd finally left. He'd find a way to see after all of this mulled over anyway. It isn't the end of the world, right?

(Y/n) was quiet as he looked out the window at the coast. It was all he'd had to look at for hours now. He was amazed at first, never having seen the beach before in person, but it got old quickly. 

The (slightly former) villain couldn't come up with an explanation for what could have possessed Monoma to decide that traveling exclusively by the coast was a good idea. They were headed all the way to the southwest end of Chūgoku. At least Monoma drove fast as hell, otherwise (Y/n) might have dropped dead on the spot from boredom alone.

For someone who used to be such a provocative firecracker, Monoma was rather quiet and reserved. He didn't talk too much, mainly focussing on the road as if there was actually a car in front of him. (Y/n) noticed the grim look on his face, causing him to wonder. He couldn't help pondering how bad what they might find may actually be.

He hoped for the best, but after hearing about this "Scientist" character a little more, he was starting to have doubts. As they slowly but surely neared their destination over the next couple of days, (Y/n) started to feel the pull himself. Going to wherever they were being led suddenly felt right, and if he was honest, it scared him more than it made relieved. 

All he wanted was to take back his decision and leave with the others, but he knew that it was too late for that now. He was going to have to suck it up and hope for the best. Especially if he was going to keep his promise.


(So, second chapter in this update — what did you guys think? Was it alright? I rushed it, if I'm being honest. I had some time to write and take my time, but I took the SSAT this morning [the say I'm writing this] and I'm cutting it close as it is. I also have some homework that I should get to, so... Yeah... I hope you enjoyed the chapter!)


(This Was 1131 Words!)


(So, instead of an extra, I wanted to propose an idea instead! I was thinking I writing multiple endings for this story. What do you guys think of that?)
