"Master...?" All Might trailed off. It's been so long since he last saw a photo of Nana Shimura. He missed her so much and he could never forget the time she sacrificed for him.

Sato turned his head, "You know her, All Might?"

"Yes, Young Sato. She was.. my friend." All Might faced the screen and thought, "Does this mean.. No.. It's impossible for One for All to contact us... Is it-- another miracle..? Or--" He may have had One for All but it was a quirk shrouded with mystery.

Everyone watched intently at the screen until Izuku's mom noticed something. Midoriya's body was glowing with red veins again, and he was beginning to get less colder but still freezing nonetheless.

Iida exclaimed, "But the doctor said.. that the Quirk Malfunction.. wore off..!"

"This.. This is scaring me.." Mineta trailed off, hiding behind Shoji.

"O-Oui, unnatural.." Aoyama mumbled. Uraraka bit her nail, "What's going on? Deku..?"

No one was understanding whatever was going on but they knew this wasn't the norm. Many of them backed off, what if an outburst happens again?

"We should get the doctors, something's not right." Jiro quickly called out for the nurses, yelling for them to come fast.

The woman, Nana Shimura, who was on the screen chuckled for a bit, making Midoriya's friends even more weary. She smiled, "Sleep."

The field rises in a carefree departed bed of thought, waving in a swift way. Not until it began to wilt, turning itself to brown crumpled pieces of nature. They're alive and deceased in their own way.

A certain spiky-haired blonde stood up, searching for wherever he is. Near his left, he found two unconscious people, who he can safely assume were Uraraka and Iida. On his right was Todoroki, who was in the middle of opening his eyes to see the new environment.

"Hey, you fuckers, wake up. Where the hell are we?!" Bakugo yelled at the two who jolted awake.

Iida stroked his clothing, "I do not know, Bakugo, but it's best to stay calm."

"Is there anyone else with us?" Uraraka gulped, checking out their surroundings. It was all the same and nobody else were there, "We were just in Deku's room a while ago, right..?"

It took some time for Todoroki to register the terrain and that's when it clicked. "Wait.. I heard from the waiter that he was on a grassfield.."

"The hell do you mean?"

The three took questioning glances at him in which Todoroki explained what the person he asked had told him. It was exactly the same as the person described it. And the part with his friends suddenly appearing could be similar to their situation.

"So you're assuming we're in the same place as Midoriya?" Iida stated, doing his gestures.

Todoroki nodded, "While I'm not sure how, but it is possible. The last thing the woman in the TV said is also suspicious, maybe that 'Sleep' could mean we're asleep and since we are aware, we may be lucid dreaming."

"So you're suggesting this is also a connected dream? Why only us?" Iida asked as the two toned haired boy nodded, "Maybe it has something to do with Midoriya and it's best to keep our guard up."

"Don't tell me what to do, half 'n half bastard!" Bakugo scowled, standing beside the boy he mentioned, running to the forest.

"Can you still use your quirks?" Todoroki asked before Iida gave a thumbs up, busting up his turbo engines. Uraraka pressed her fingers and Bakugo who put his fists together with an explosion nodded, "That's a relief."

Just as they were walking, they reached a wrecked house with open wide windows and doors.

Entering inside carefully, they all noticed how some closets were open. Uraraka saw the stairs and decided to go up, also seeing the photo frames hanging around.

"These pictures.. are villains, right?" She pointed, specifically on Chisaki, who she knew at that moment, "Poor Eri..."

"Hero Killer Stain.." Todoroki and Iida's eyes narrowed at the sight of the person mentioned.

Bakugo made a 'tch' sound, seeing the League of Villains who kidnapped him back then. Still, he felt guilt on All Might's end.

All four of them took the stairs cautiously. Reaching the top was a small room. Their eyes viewed shattered mirror shards scattered on the floor with some tainted with blood.

"Do you think--?"

"Don't even fucking say it, round face." Bakugo complained angrily, "Where the fuck is that shitty nerd? We're walking around like stupid ants!"

"Something definitely happened here." Todoroki stated, picking up the shards and examining them. From what it looks like, the mirror broke for some reason, either by punching or being thrown by a heavy object and probably some other person just got his skin scarred with it.

Iida observed the location and immediately noticed the footsteps on the flooring, leading one person running outside the house.

"These are Midoriya's shoeprints!" Iida exclaimed, examining the wooden floor. It was easy to spot, considering dust were still everywhere. The person probably didn't stay long.

Bakugo stood there annoyed, "I can't even question how the fuck you know that damn nerd's shoe print."

They all ran outside and almost tripped on the short staircase of the house. Uraraka pointed to the forest trail the prints lead. They all nodded and quickly ran to wherever it lead them.

Icy glaciers, snowy ground and a cold atmosphere. Todoroki was certain they are in some kind of mind scape and their goal is to help Midoriya, exactly the same as the one he interviewed.

Todoroki activated his fire quirk as most of them were freezing. Bakugo scoffed, saying he didn't need his stupid flames. The place was humongous and after a few minutes, they have been walking for almost fourth of one kilometer.

"Where do you think Deku is?" Uraraka asked, wrapping her hands around herself.

"Don't know, the waiter also said something about a desert. Maybe behind that mountain could be the desert. I think Midoriya could be there.. Maybe." Icyhot tipped his finger on his chin.

"The fuck do you mean by maybe?!" Bakugo growled, making small explosions on his hands. Thanks to their work study with Endeavor, the blonde managed to conquer winter. "What if we get lost, huh?!"

"We won't." Todoroki stated, his voice tightened, "I'm.. I'm affirmative that Midoriya is here. There, does that help you now?"

The four stopped in their tracks when they saw a bright green light coming from a far. It blinded them before a green stroke of lightning came directly to Uraraka. Bakugo immediately jumped to the brown haired girl and pushed her out of the way, both of them rolling on the cold snowy ground.

"Thanks, Bakugo.."

"Shut it and stand up, we've got company." Bakugo yelled, activating his quirk from the tips of his palm.

Iida shouted, "Come out and show yourself, villain!" All four got into a fighting stance, "Is Midoriya with you?"

A light chuckle escaped the person hiding in the snowy mist. Once it finally dispersed, they couldn't believe their eyes. Their stomachs churned at the sight, their jaws gaping wide in disbelief and anger.

"Midoriya..?"
