The Rising of the Broken Kingdom

The Manly Knight

The crew was on their way to recruit Red Riot, a.k.a Kirishima. Last Midoriya heard of him, he lived in the deep woods outside Hosu. Bakugou was the most excited about this, as Kirishima was someone he loved to bro with, other than Deku and Uravity.

"Why are we going to get him now? Why didn't you get him first before Bakugou and I?" Todoroki asks. Midoriya turned to him. "Because I needed you two first. You're the strongest ones of the team, besides me, and I could've needed your help." Midoriya explains to the prince. "Fine." Todoroki sighs.

"What is he like? I heard that he's very boisterous." Uraraka asks. "That's putting it lightly, Round Face. Kirishima was, in his words, 'very manly'. It was his code. To be manly is to be able to stand your ground, and keep your morals. He was also one of the friendliest of the group. He was annoying, but less annoying than the rest of the group." Bakugou answers her. She has her mouth dropped hearing him actually describe someone rather than insulting them.

"Don't get used to it. He'll just describe everyone else how he sees them like Todoroki." Midoriya tells her noticing her dumbfoundedness. "Tch. Whatever." He brushes it off. "I want to ask again. Why are we going to go get him now?" Todoroki asks him again.

"Because we need transportation. You didn't think we were going to go on this entire journey on foot, did you?" Midoriya answers. Bakugou and Todoroki go wide-eyed. Uraraka is surprised by their shock. "What about his transportation is so shocking?" He giggled.

"Something else we should've mentioned about Kirishima is that he's a dragon tamer." Midoriya scratches his neck.

She stops in her tracks. "....A what?" "Yep. A dragon tamer. Best one in the country."

"But I thought dragons were extinct. Weren't they supposed to have been wiped out during that fight?" She asks. "Well they were. Except for a small few. Knowing him, he kept a few hidden, and one for himself."

Her confusion is then immediately replaced by excitement. "I'm so excited! I didn't think dragons were real, but I always dreamed of meeting and riding one."

"If you don't tame one, it'll either eat you or burn you." Todoroki says. "Todoroki! Come on!" Midoriya complains.

He turns to see Uraraka shaking in her spot having her dreams crushed, and is now fearful of the mythic beast she'll have to meet. "S-Sorry. I did it again, didn't I?" He bows in apology.

Bakugou laughs and Midoriya and Uraraka just lower their heads and sigh.

They finally got to the deep woods outside Hosu. "Why does he live all the way out here? There's no one from miles of here." She asks. "I don't know. At first I thought because he wanted to keep his dragon hidden here, but I crossed that out since there are a bunch of different ways he could've done that." Midoriya answers her.

"Maybe he just wanted isolation." Todoroki suggested to his question. "No. He's too much of an extrovert for that." Midoriya turns down that idea. "Well I know I could use some time to myself and get away from all the extras of the world."

"Didn't you get yourself thrown into prison on purpose?" Todoroki asks. Bakugou clenches his teeth. "Shut. The fuck. Up!" He says through his teeth. "Guys, let's focus." Uraraka interjects. "Fine." The two say looking ahead. Midoriya just smiles at how easily she settled their argument.

They hear a crash. Ahead is smoke and roaring. "Come on! Let's go fight!" Bakugou says propelling himself towards the noise. "Kacchan! Wai-Oh forget it. Uraraka hold on." He grabs her bridal style and her face turns immensely red. Todoroki travels there with his ice.
