Himawari's POV

"Are you alright? You seem horribly injured-" I tripped into Midoriya's arms, catching him by surprise.

"No, I'm not alright. My injuries have heightened since the camp. What are you guys doing here oanyways? It's way too dangerous here for students."

Like I should be the one talking.

"We're here to save Bakugo."

"Wha..what? You all risked your lives to come save the boy?" I asked, watching as the students nodded their heads without hesitation.

Admirable.

"Wow. You all are something else, that's for sure-" I stopped my sentence short, my knees buckling as blood flowed from my slightly parted lips.

"First, we must get you to first aid! You can't withstand these injuries for long-"

"Then we'll just have to hurry this plan of yours. Let me in on what you're thinking, and I'll try my best to help," I said, panting as I held onto my side.

The UA students let me in on their plan to save Bakugo. They certainly were clever under pressure, especially Midoriya.

"You're absolutely right. Not to mention, Bakugo could get hurt in the fight between All Might and All for One. Debris, ruthless quirks, etcetera."

"Let's make it quick," Midoriya said.

I nodded, slightly holding onto Kirishima as Iida and Todoroki prepared to propel us into the air.

As soon as we were in the air, we would aim towards Bakugo and hopefully aid him in his escape. I was there for support in case he needed an extra boost with the help of what little I had left of my webs.

2.

1!

We were up in the air before I knew it. I tried to keep my eyes open as my consciousness wavered, Iida swiftly gliding up Todoroki's huge mass of ice.

I peeked below, watching the villains look up at us in awe. I could tell they were shocked to see me still alive. I just hoped I could stay that way.

Bakugo looked up at us, clenching his fists.

Kirishima extended a welcoming hand, calling out to the boy he'd bonded with since the beginning. I crossed my fingers, praying that the plan would work, that Bakugo would set aside his pride and see that he could no longer get through this alone.

Luckily, my prayers were answered.

Bakugo only smirked as he blew his way into the sky, using his explosions. I sighed in relief as the ash blonde boy smiled, grabbing firmly onto Kirishima's hand.

All was well now, everything was going to be okay.

Atleast that's what I thought until we arrived at Kamino Ward.

His scrawny body was plastered in the center of the city on a huge screen for everyone to see.

I shook in fear, watching as the Symbol of Peace barely stood up straight. I began to wonder if he could win. Tears ran down my dirtied face as cheers sprung up in the crowd.

All Might leaped forward, reeling back his fist.

Even if I wasn't there in that terrifying moment, I knew.
