A Fantasy {KatsuDeku Au}

Reporting to Jirou

After a new member joined the team, they all set out for the Capitol. However, on the way there, they discover that a young girl named Eri stowed away with their luggage. For now, they must continue and report back to Jirou.

' ' ' ' '

"Uraraka, do you think you can take Eri to the inn here? I think she should still sleep if she's this exhausted. We can let Jirou know that you have her." I ask.

"I see nothing wrong with that. Yeah, I can do that. At Pony's family's hostel right?" She asks. Her head tilts softly, allowing her brunette hair to slip over her shoulder.

I nod.

"Okay," she redirects her attention elsewhere while I continue to look ahead. People roam the street, moving aside for us to ride by. We pass a few streets with soon-to-be-busy markets. The hostel where my friend Pony resides with her parents is not far from us. It's actually on the way to the stables. Iida made sure to make a few turns to allow us to go by it. Eri should feel comfortable with Pony and Uraraka. They are both gentle people. They are the nicest and softest girls I know after all.

Up ahead, I see the scenery around the hostel coming into view. The building remains the same. Iida pulls back on the reins, and the horse begins to slow down its pace--eventually leading to a full and smooth stop.

Kirishima remains seated as Uraraka collects her staff and lowers herself to the ground. Her shoes hit the ground, and she fixes her hat and her hair.

"Bakugou," she whispers, "mind carrying her for me. I don't want to wake her up."

Kacchan does not say a word as he swiftly and gently lifts Eri up in one fluid movement. He jumps down, supporting the back of her head with his hand. Uraraka makes a head start to the entrance, opening the door for him. He looks back before entering the hostel.

"I'll be back. Don't leave without me." Then he disappears beyond the frame of the door. She too goes after him and vanishes, the door closing behind her.

"So Kiri," I spin around to face our new acquaintance, "ever been to the palace?" There is a chance he may not have been able to see or visit the palace. He scratches behind his ear and looks down as if thinking. I wait patiently for him to answer. Iida, meanwhile, gets down to pat the horse.

"I think so?" Kirshima's voice raises in pitch at the end. He sounds unsure of his answer. "I feel like I have, but I can not be certain. It wouldn't hurt to visit it anyways." He is right. 

I smile not knowing where to lead the conversation.

Luckily though, Kacchan saves me from embarrasing myself by returning. He is without his cape though. I can picture her small form wrapped up in his cape with the girls watching over her. I hope she sleeps well, and hopefully Jirou can do something about her. I fear if nothing can be done, then something dangerous might happen. Kacchan jumps back up and sits down in his usual spot.

"C'mon Four Eyes," he growls, "let's get a move on." Iida almost displays a look of suprise, but he just reverts it to a frown as he climbs up to the driver's seat.

"Bakubro, chillax. There's no need to rush there," Kirishima takes a bold advance at the beast. I hope he knows what he just annoyed. Like what I expected to happen, Kacchan's expression turns sour.

"Who the fuck are you calling bro? Don't waste you're fucking breath with that. You are just as annoying as that useless Deku over there."

"Hey, that's so mean!" I pout.
