Don't Let the Spark Die [BNHA Gen 2]

Chapter 35: Family Dynamic

Aizawa POV

Never in my life have I seen someone collapse just from another person saying their name. You learn something new everyday. And as I stood looking at these girls, one collapsed from shock and one passed out with blood everywhere, I learnt that everyone is human. Everyone has feelings and emotions and a story of their own. My former student, readjusted himself to carry this Takami girl's weight. She didn't look heavy at all so I'm assuming he was just caught off guard. That's when I remembered that my gen 2 class was also here.

"Do you know her?" I heard Todoroki Junior ask quietly. He had a few injuries but it was nothing too severe. The adult didn't respond. All he did was cover Miria's face and tuck her wings away as the rest of the parents walk in. Asui and Aoyama were holding an unconscious Shigaraki while Sato, Yaoyorozu, Uraraka and Midoriya come through holding a quiet Hawks and a struggling Dabi. Lastly, Kirishima and Kaminari come into the classroom, battling with Toga, who was screaming at them.

"Kids to the back of the classroom." Bakugo yelled. "NOW!!" The children all scurried backwards to where Toga's daughter had been laying. She was now laying next to Takami.

"Hawks, my friend. What happened?" I say, half sarcastic and half sympathetic. All 4 villains remain silent. I watch as Yaoyorozu makes restraints to tie them to the desks and chairs in our classroom.

"Aizawa, I just wanted to let you know that UA has been evacuated and pro heroes are dealing with the damage, mainly fires." Asui croaks out. I nod a thank you and turn back to the villains.

"We need to question them at the hero agency." I say sternly.

"But Endeavor was the head of that department, sir. He was fired years ago." Uraraka points out.

"As he should've been." We turn our attention to Hawks, who had spoken in a gravely voice.

"Endeavour was abusing his kids. Enji Todoroki wasn't a hero and he never should've been recognised as one." Hawks says, realising this was probably the first time a group of heroes had heard this.

One of the parents, who no one realised had walked out, carefully stepped back in the room, trying his best to cover Takami again. Unfortunately for him, she had woken up and was running across the room to her parents, hugging them the best she could while she cried.

"I know it's a crazy request Aizawa," Dabi starts. "But can you untie us so we can comfort our daughter?"

"Us? Untie the most wanted villains? No." Everyone laughed at them. I, however, walked over and undid the restraints Yaoyorozu Senior had created. I know the pain and love of family. Almost immediately, Takami was in Dabi's arms, with Hawks rubbing her back and soothing her panic.

"Why'd you let them free Aizawa? Are you crazy?" Jiro shouted. I said nothing and turned to the villains
"Do you guys remember Eri?" I said quietly.

"The little girl who Overhaul used?" Dabi asked. I nodded. "Yeah I remember her."
"We helped her escape Aizawa." Shigaraki said, having woken up. "Where she is now, we don't know. But I will never forget the child we set free that night."

"Why'd you let her go? Aren't you villains? Didn't you want to kidnap her?" Kaminari asked, acid stinging in his voice. "You could let her go but my girl had to stay with you for months?"

"She was only around 6 years old." Shigaraki said. "She was a child. Me and Toga got her out."
"That doesn't answer why Aizawa set you free to hug your daughter." Kirishima snapped.

"Eri's my daughter. I will never forget the day she was kidnapped. I will also never forget the day that Shigaraki and Toga showed up to my house with her in their arms." I said loudly, everyone's voice coming to a stop as the were silent once more.

Looking at the villains, Toga looked on the verge of tears.

"SHINJI!" She screamed, tears running down her face. "Where's Shinji? Is she here?"
"She's here." Shinsou said from the doorway, holding the unconscious girl. He laid her with Takami.

I opened my mouth to speak, finally making a decision about what to do.
