The room was surrounded by gold, gold pillars were lined next to each other on each side of the room. In front of the pillars stood knight statues, each having an emblem carved into their chest plate.

The prince stood up and walked down the stairs that lead up to his throne. His polished shoes lightly tapping the marble floor. He was soon enough standing in front of Uraraka, he kneeled down and lightly took her hand and kissed it.

"May I get to know your name?" Shoto asked.

Just because Prince Shoto was acting like a gentleman doesn't mean he can get to Uraraka that easily. But Uraraka knew better then to be rude because he could send her to the dungeon and have her head in a split second.

She grabbed both sides of her skirt and curtsied. 

"My name is Ochako Uraraka and these are my friends." She politely replied.

Midoriya and Denki both awkwardly waved not having a clue on how to treat royalty.

"Iida?" Shoto shouted. The knight with the red cloth on his shoulder walked in at a speedily pace and bowed.

"Please take these young gentlemen to a 'guest room'." The prince said emphasizing the words guest room.

Iida gestured both men to follow him. Soon the door shut and the only people left in the room were Shoto and Uraraka.

"Tea?" The prince asked. Uraraka was hesitant at first but then accepted the invitation.

Shoto lead Uraraka into a beautiful garden where a table was set in the middle of a rose bush field. Two tea cups sit on the opposite side from each other, maids pulled out two chairs and both Shoto and Ochako sat.

"So what brings you here?" Shoto asked, taking a sip of his tea. Uraraka grabbed her cup, clearly knowing that she wasn't going to tell him the truth, because what kind of people tell their enemies their plan.

She was starting to become anxious, she is sitting in her enemies base, unguarded, and vulnerable. Uraraka was a bad liar, even if she made a good backstory her face would give it away.

"I came here because I'm on a mission." She said. She wasn't technically lying so she shouldn't have a problem.

"May I ask what kind?" The prince insisted. Uraraka was now sweating, her palms started to shake causing her to spill her tea.

"I'm so sorry!" She panicked, thankfully none of it got on her but it did stain the white fabric on the table.

"What has gotten into me?!" She thought. Todoroki sat perfectly still, his eyes widened as he just stared at her. He wasn't shocked because she spilled her tea, he could easily replace the table cloth. He was shocked because of the dangling jewel that hung around Ochako's neck.

From his research he knew exactly what it was just by taking one glance at it. As Uraraka kept panicking, Shoto kept inching his hand ever so slowly towards her neck.

"What are you doing?" Shoto was cut out of his trance, he retreated his hand back to his side.

"May I ask where you got that necklace from?" He asked.

"Oh I got it from my mother before I moved out." She replied.

The two sat in awkward silence. The spilled tea was now dripping off the side of the table and onto the stone floor.

"15,000" Shoto barged

"Excuse me-" Uraraka was cut off.

"30,000" Shoto said raising the number.

"I will give you 30,000 red rubies if you give me your necklace." The prince bargained.

Uraraka held her necklace in a protective way.
"My necklace is not for sale." She stated

She knew she was being risky by denying the prince, but she wasn't going to give her necklace away that easily.

Shoto sighed and clapped his hands. Two silver knights came stomping in and each one held one of Uraraka's arms making her vulnerable.

"Hey, let me go!" She screamed, the knights only held her arms tighter.

Shoto started walking towards her and stopped when he was right in front of her.

"I hate treating women like this but if it means that I can get rid of that man then so be it." He said reaching out for the necklace.

The second Shoto touched the green jewel, a zapping noise was heard and the prince held his arm out in agony.

Now he was pissed. "Throw her in the dungeon and make sure she has no weapons." He yelled.

The guards didn't hesitate and started dragging Uraraka to what she assumed were the dungeons.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The cell door slammed shut and Uraraka was left alone, or so she thought.

"Uraraka?!" She whipped her head around at the sound of her name. It was dark and the only light source was from a dimly lit torch on the outside of the cell wall. A shadowy figure stood in the corner "Midoriya?" She questioned.

"Yea, it's me" Midoriya replied back. Uraraka looked around for a second.

"Where is kaminari and how did you get in here?" She asked finding that Kaminari's presence wasn't there. Midoriya gulped.

"After we were lead away by the guard, he pushed me into a cell-" he said stopping mid-sentence.







"As for Kaminari, he was lead to the execution stand in the middle of the town square" he finished.
