AN: Apologies for any typos!
The day had started off normally for Izumi. She and her brother had bid their mother a farewell to make their way to school. On the way to their respective paths to school the siblings parted with a quick hug as Izumi met up with her friend and classmate Nanami. Izuku had waved his sister off and turned to make his way toward the train station.
Izumi, with Nanami in tow, made her way to school, meeting up with several other classmates that were making their way to the front gates of school. As the two young girls talked happily back and forth, they were both shoved away from each other as their classmate, Kazehiko turned back with a smirk specifically targeted Izumi, sticking out his tongue before running ahead of them. Kind and passive Nanami, as per usual, held Izumi back from running after the raven haired boy.
They all soon made their way into the building. Taking off their shoes at the front before making their way to their respective classes. Izumi took her assigned seat in the fourth row away from the door just behind the front row seat. Nanami followed and took her seat behind Izumi. And just behind the curly brown-haired girl sat Kazehiko. Izumi sent him very pointed glares but she said nothing to him as their teacher, Miss Kanae, entered and greeted her class warmly.
The day proceeded as always. Izumi and the rest of the class eagerly participated in the activities Miss Kanae had set. Every once in a while the young teacher would have to calm her class down from their excitement, gently reminding them to keep their quirks in check.
It wasn't until after lunch time that things took a turn. Police siren's that could be heard from far away had gradually gotten closer until they were just outside the entrance of the school.
Before any in the class could react, the door of the class opened and a loud bang rang throughout. At the door stood a man, in his late 40's, balding and in tattered clothes, as if he had just recently been in a fight. In his hands he held a handgun and had it pointed straight at Miss Kanae. His eyes were dilated and crazed as he shouted at the trembling woman, "All of you on your knees!"
Miss Kanae looked at her class, scared and fearful faces stared back at her. She gulped and gave them all the best smile she could muster, "It's okay children. I'm right here, do as he says."
The man walked fully into the room, closing the door, gesturing with the gun for the woman to move toward the children, "All of you in the corner, any of you tries anything, I shoot."
All the children moved out of their seats and went toward the corner of the classroom, near the windows. Izumi took hold of Nanami's trembling hand, squeezing her hand. The brunette looked at her friend. Her friend gave her a shaky smile, unshed tears forming in the green haired girl's eyes but furrowing her brows to prevent them from falling. Izumi was trying to put on a brave face to try and alleviate her scared friend.
Miss Kanae huddled with her class, placing herself between the man and the children. She quickly looked at the window they had sat next to. They could get out through there is the man's attention was turned elsewhere.
As if responding to her thoughts, a voice magnified by a megaphone called into the classroom, "Villian, come out with your hands in the air. This is your first warning to come out of your own volition before we are forced to bring you out."
The man chuckled before his body glowed a soft purple. He stepped back and in the place he had stood, a perfect clone stood in the same position. The clone made his way out of the classroom, the original following up until the door to direct his clone where to go.
Miss Kanae, seeing her chance turned to the children, putting a finger up to her lips. She then pointed up to the window. Her students looked up and saw their way out. Their teacher slowly stood up, trying to make as little noise as possible, and took hold of the window, pulling it as slowly as she could without making it squeak.
From outside, they heard the clone speak loudly to the police, "You try anything and I'll start taking out the kids one by one."
Just as Miss Kanae had finished opening up the window enough for the kids to go through the cock of a gun rang ominously from the door, "I warned you."
The bang made the children jump in their place while they all cried out as their teacher dropped where she stood. Those closest to Miss Kanae tried to see if she was okay while those near the back began to cry.
"Shut up! Shut up all of you before I shoot another!"
Their squeaks turned to small whimpers as they all began to hold onto each other. From outside they could hear the clone, "Well, it seems there's one less to worry about."
Izumi shook as she looked over at Miss Kanae's still form. Blood had began to pool around their teacher's form. Tears streamed down her face as she held on tightly to Nanami who clung to her. The green haired girl looked back up to the window only to realize to late. There was a faint shimmer that she could see now that the window was open. A barrier. The young girl's mind began to race. The man had two quirks. This second one allowed him to create a sort of force field which is why the police weren't able to do much besides wait until the man came out of his own will or eventually couldn't use his quirk anymore.
The young Midoriya child turned her watery green eyes to the man that had turned his attention back to outside of the door. From where she was she could see that same shimmer just a few inches in front of him. She looked around the classroom and noticed that just in front of her, in front of the back door of the class, the same shimmer passed through the middle of the sliding doors. That could be their way out, but she had to make sure that they could cross the barrier from the inside.
Keeping a firm hold on Nanami with one arm, Izumi reached a hand into her uniform pocket. She took out a piece of a candy wrap she had received from one of the other girls in class during lunch period. Taking another look at the man to make sure he wasn't looking, Izumi threw the wrapping paper through the open window. The small paper passed through without any resistance. Izumi turned back toward the front, the man still looking outside. She clenched her fist, she had found their way out.
Izumi quickly made quick note of all her classmates, or more specifically, the quirks at their disposal. First of all, if she were to execute any kind of plan, she had to communicate somehow with her friends. She turned toward one of the girls in the back. She reached back to tap lightly on the crying girl's leg. Michiko, a shy blond haired girl, looked up. Izumi signaled for her to remain quiet then tapped her temple before pointing back at the girl. Michiko immediately understood and sat up a little straighter.
"I-Izumi?"
"It's gonna be okay Michiko. I have a plan to get out of here. Can you connect the others?"
"I can only connect two others b-besides myself. Is that okay?"
"Yeah."
"Wh-who do you need to talk to?"
"First with Kazehiko."
Some of the children that were close to Miss Kanae were able to determine that she was still breathing and had been shot through her shoulder. She was merely unconscious. The students huddled around her, trying to put handkerchiefs on her wound. The man paid them no mind, so long as they didn't make too much noise, he didn't pay much attention to them, only checking every once in a while to make sure they hadn't moved any closer to any of the exits. The man silently cursed, this was getting out of hand really quickly. There were news media outside already, broadcasting the situation to the world. At the moment there were only a few small time heroes outside, taking care of the other students and teachers that hadn't been near to the class he was currently in. If he wasn't able to get out of here, more experienced heroes were going to get here soon.
He took another look back at the children before his eyes took note of the time. He had been here for about an hour. He had to get out of here soon.
U.A High School
Izuku looked up from writing his notes as Principal Nezu, riding atop Cementoss, entered the classroom, "Forgive the interruption Midnight."
The R-rated hero shook her head, "Not at all Principal. Is there something you needed?"
The mouse man nodded and looked straight at the freckled boy, "Yes, I'm afraid I must have a word with young Midoriya."
The messy haired boy sat up straight in his chair. Had he done something?
Midnight turned her blue eyes to him, "Go on then Midoriya."
He stood about to head to the principal, "Take your belongings Midoriya. You won't be returning to class for today."
Izuku could feel the eyes of his classmates on him as he gathered his notebook, hastily stuffing them in his bag as he hung his head low to hide his reddening cheeks.
As he followed the cement hero, he panicked briefly. Was he getting expelled for something? That would destroy him. Maybe he wasn't performing to standards suited of U.A. students.
They entered the principals office, Cementoss excusing himself once the principal Nezu was situated in his chair. The small mammal gestured for Izuku to sit, "Please sit young Midoriya. I'm afraid this news won't be easy to hear."
Izuku graciously sat, afraid that he had been about to collapse from the shaking his legs were doing, "Th-thank you. Uh, is there something that I did?"
"No, this has nothing to do with your academic performance Midoriya. I'm sorry that I called you so suddenly but, we've been informed of a very serious situation by both the media and your mother."
The young boy blinked, "My...mother?"
Nezu's eyes softened, "I'm sorry. I can't find a way to say this anymore gently but your mother is very distressed and I decided it would be best for you to be there for her during such a stressful situation."
Izuku was starting to panic. What in the world was the principal talking about?
With a small sigh Nezu continued, "There is a hostage situation at this very moment taking place."
The young boy scooted closer, waiting to hear what that had to do with him and his mother.
"The victims are students from Endor Elementary School."
Green eyes widened. Izuku felt his heart skip a beat and his stomach flip at the familiar name.
Please, no.
"Your sister is confirmed to be among those taken hostage."
