Pain... that's all he can feel amongst the darkness. This place he was in. This feeling he felt. It's happened before.
Izukus eyes blinked open with his vision blurred. He was still trapped among the rocks of the cliff face beside the cave. Even though everything in his eyes was out of focus he was still able to tell the Muscular and the boy were gone. Did... did he get away? Is he safe? He thought as he attempted to move from his rocky prison but was only meet with more pain that caused him to become more awake and aware "Gahhh! Grrrrrr" tears filled his eyes as it became unbearable once again.
Hearing the sound of someone in pain Uraraka quickened her pace and found the cave. She looked around cautiously and found body trapped into the mountain side with an awful amount of blood dripping onto the dirt. Gasping she ran up to the person fearing the worst.
Izuku panted but saw something come into his blurred vision. He blinked in an attempt to focus and laid eyes on a brunette girl staring at him in shock and concern. After a few painful seconds his eyes slightly opened more in realisation recognising the girl. "It's... it's you... the pretty girl from the Mall." He spoke weakly.
Uraraka blushes slightly at what he said but brushed it away as that wasn't a major concern at the moment. "Shhhhh don't talk. We gotta go you out of here and some help."
Izuku groaned and attempted to shake his head but the pounding headache stopped him rather quickly "grrr... no... the boy... you need to save him... he's in a red cap... please... he's gonna get killed."
Uraraka attempted to calm him "hey hey Kota is safe. He's with my friend."
Izuku looked at her weakly "Kota? Was that his name?... what about Muscular?"
"I handled him. He won't be causing trouble anytime soon." She smiled at him warmly.
In his mind Izuku honestly thought he was looking at an angels smile and that he was indeed truly dead. But the idea quickly left his head as she attempted to free him and accidentally cause him more pain "Ahhhh!"
"I'm sorry I'm sorry. I'll get you out I promise." She said in a worried panic tone.
Forest boundary near Main Building
Compress walked along the forest towards the extraction point humming happily as he played with a marble in his hand before slipping it into his pocket.
Honestly the Nomu provided the perfect distraction for his act. So perfect that part of him was kind of disappointed that an appropriate audience couldn't witness such a display of skill.
The teachers and students themselves were so caught up in the massacre the chainsaw Nomu was causing no one noticed young Bakugos disappearance.
"Yo Bakugo! Where are you man?!" Yelled a voice from behind him. Obviously it was one of the students. Which means they finally noticed the missing classmate.
Wasting no time Compress quickened his pace to meet with the others to inform them that they're mission is completed and successful.
Mountain Cave Entrance (Kotas Hideout)
It took sometime but eventually Uraraka was able to gently pick apart the rock to be able to remove the boy and gently lay him on the ground. This would've been easier if she used her zero gravity quirk but she didn't want to risk releasing the muscle villian so had to unfortunately risk causing the boy more pain.
He gasped and winced as she laid him down. She removed her top and wrapped it into a make shift pillow to rest his head. He chuckled weakly as he stared tiredly at the stars above. "Damn I'm useless... failed my dream at being a hero...and I failed at being a villian..." his eyes began to tear up and he closed them "... im such a...Deku."
Uraraka frowned at him not really understanding what he was saying but spoke "Well between you and me... I'm glad you failed as a villian. And although it doesn't seem like much now. You were a hero for Kota."
He opened his eyes to glance her way and sniffled "At least I managed to talk to a nice girl before I died."
"You're not dieing on me yet." She declared pulling out her flip phone and opening only to sigh in disappointment "Damn it... No signal." She looked at the boy who looked like he was about to fall asleep. She knew in a first responder situation that she couldn't allow that to happen. So she tried to get him to talk. "Hey. Why did you call yourself a Deku before?"
Izuku blinked his eyes back open and frowned slightly staring at the stars. He had honestly convinced himself he was on death row so he felt no need to hide anything at all and just spoke openly "It was a nickname given to me by...someone... it means useless."
Uraraka noticed the discomfort on his face and kept talking "I'm not sure I agree with that. I think Deku sounds like a hero name."
Izukus face became one of confusion as he looked at the brunette "huh?"
Uraraka smiles again and nodded "Yeah. The name Deku sounds like you could do anything."
The confused look remained on the boys face for a few moments before a small smile appeared "thanks. I'm Izuku by the way...Izuku Midoriya."
"Ochako Uraraka." She replied with the same smile.
Villian Extraction Point
Compress walked towards Dabi and the others twirling a marble in his hand proudly "One UA students Katsuki Bakugo as requested."
"Where are the others? They should be back here." Asked Dabi with annoyance.
"Well lets say the Big guy literally got knocked off his feet." Giggled Toga.
"Judging by the lack of gas I'm assuming Mustard got taking out too. But I couldn't really care if that Moonfish guy doesn't come back. He kinda gave me the creeps... I LOVE THAT!" Yelled Twice.
"Fine. But where's the kid? He was supposed to be our eyes and ears." Asked Spinner
At that moment Kurogiri appeared "Do you have the Bakugo boy?" He asked instantly getting to the point.
Compress nodded showing the marble "Wrapped and ready for delivery."
Satisfied Kurogiri opened a warp gate and allowed the others to exit. Dabi looked towards his main body "What about the others?"
"I'll attempt to retrieve them if possible." Answered Kurogiri. Dabi shrugged not really caring and walked through the portal. Kurogiri then closed it off and began his search for the others. They were all but captured with the exception of the Nomu which he quickly retrieved.
Then he found young Midoriya bloody and beaten being added by the girl who embarrassed Shigaraki and the league at the USJ. He waited for her to check her phone again for a signal then opened a warp gate beneath the boy letting him fall through and quickly closing it off.
Uraraka dropped her phone and began feeling the ground and looking around fearfully for the boy "Izuku?...IZUKU!?!"
"He's safe. And I thank you for caring for our young comrade." Spoke Kurogiri from a distance.
Uraraka glared at him "Give him back! He's badly hurt because of you Villians!"
Kurogiri replied "No... I'd rather not." He then disappeared into his own warp not to be seen again. Uraraka stared at the spot where Kurogiri once was before falling to her knees shaking "He was infront of me... I had him... and I couldn't save him...DAMN IT!!!!" She screamed as she slammed her fists into the ground with tears streaming down her cheeks. She felt nothing but the overwhelming feeling of failure.
