(Purgatory's P.O.V)

I wake up as I normally do in my Angel's arms, but this time I'm awake before he is.

"Keigo", I say as I shake him a little.

"Nooo", he says still asleep.

"You want some coffee", I ask and he nods.

I kiss his forehead then get up.

I first reach for my phone on the night stand, but it isn't there. Because of everything that happened last night, I realize that both of our phones are on the floor and completely dead.

I pick them up and just plug them in to charge.

I then slip on Keigo's sweat pants and a tank top and head down stairs.

I turn on the coffee maker and I decide to turn on the little tv we have on the counter that we use to watch the news as we make breakfast.

What I then see on the news makes me completely forget about the coffee.

I quickly run back upstairs, "Angel", I say, "Wake up."

He's not responding so I yell, "Hawks!"

He immediately wakes up, "What's going on", he asks.

"We need to get to UA", I say, "Something happened last night at the Gala."

Quickly we both get dressed in our hero outfits and he flys us off the balcony.

Moments later, we arrive and go straight for the dormitories.

Frantically I knock on the door and Aizawa answers.

With tears in his eyes, he pulls me into a hug, "You're alive", he says.

"Mom! Dad", yells Tutenaka as he runs to the door and hugs both Hawks and I.

"Why were you two not answering last night", Aizawa yells at us.

"We weren't paying attention to our phones last night and they were completely dead this morning", I say.

"You idiots", he yells, "Everyone is still trying to look for you both in the rubble."

"I'm sorry dad", I say with tears running down my face.

He hugs me again, "I'm sorry", he says, "Just don't scare me like that again."

"How bad was the explosion", asks Hawks.

"Many Heroes are still missing", he says, "So many others are in the hospital being treated."

"We should go there", I say to Hawks, "With my ears and your eyes, we could possibly help find people."

"No", says Aizawa, "You don't know who the villains were truly going after. For all we know, they could've been trying to get either or both of you."

"That's no excuse", I say, "You taught me that a Heroes job is to the people first and I intend to keep it that way."

"Plus, even though it sounds stupid", says Hawks, "Criminals always do return the scene of the crime. If we were there as capable heroes then we could stop whoever it was that did this."

"Then I'm coming too", says Aizawa.

"No you're not", I say, "You have 20 students to take care of and watch over. You know very well how our students are and you're the only one who can stop them before they put themselves at risk. Not to mention that you have a grandchild to look after."

"But mom", says Tutenaka looking up at me with tears running down his cheeks, "I wanna go with you."

I get down on my knees to be at eye level with him then wipe his tears, "I know sweetie", I say, "But it's not safe for you right now."
