Hello everyone! Before we start the chapter, I want to point out that I deleted the original version of this story.
Chapter 10
"Why didn't you tell us about Eri!?" Ochako demanded, asking the question towards Izuku, the two of them along with the other Work Study students sitting at a table in the lobby of the Nighteye agency.
"Well….we thought it was best to keep things concerning Eri quiet. Everyone in 1-A are…over the top enthusiastic." Izuku replied in a sheepish tone of voice.
"That is true. And the little girl is scared of what's been happening to her ever since awaking her Quirk." Tsuyu said bluntly, causing Izuku to nod his head.
"Yes, and I really don't want to think about what happens if Bakugo was near her." Izuku explained before shivering at the thought.
"Probably the same thing would have happened when Eri saw your friend, Tokoyami." Mirio guessed, causing Izuku to nod his head slowly.
"Hang on. Tokoyami knows about Eri?" Ejiro asked with a slight shock expression on his face, along with Ochako and Tsuyu.
"I don't know how much Mr Aizawa has told Tokoyami about Eri, but the only reason why he knows is because he heard my voice in the infirmary the day after me and Mirio brought Eri to UA. When Eri laid eyes on Tokoyami, she started to freak out and her Quirk went out of control." Izuku explained, causing Ejiro, Ochako and Tsuyu to remember what Izuku said during the meeting.
"So…..Eri is scared of birds?" Ejiro asked, remembering hearing from Tokoyami that he accidentally made children frightened due to his bird-like head.
"Not exactly. You remember how Chisaki is wearing that plague mask?" Izuku asked, causing the other three members of Class 1-A to nod their heads.
"Well, the other members, as far I'm aware, of the Shie Hassaikai wear bird shaped plague masks. So when Eri say Tokyamai, it reminded her of Chisaki and these doctor people, which she's scared of." Izuku explained, causing Ejiro, Ochako and Tsuyu to nod their heads again.
"That's makes sense, she's suffering from PSTD then?" Tsuyu commented with a thoughtful expression on her face.
"So where is Eri? Is she still in the UA infirmary?" Ochako asked, becoming curious.
"No. Recovery Girl thought it was best if Eri was moved to a hospital to receive treatment for her PSTD and other mental injuries." Izuku explained, causing a sad expression to appear on Ochako's face.
"Why? Do you want to visit her?" Izuku asked, causing Ochako to nod her head slowly.
"I'm sure you can visit Eri if you ask Mr Aizawa, me and Togata are visiting Eri during our free time." Izuku explained, causing a hopeful expression to appear on Ochako's face.
"I'm sure that you love her. Eri's the most girl in the world!" Nejire exclaimed with a smile on her face.
"You know about Eri, Hado?" Tsuyu asked, looking at the cyan haired girl with a confuse expression on her face.
"Yup! I also managed to hold her." Nejire replied, bouncing on her seat slightly.
"How does Hado knows about Eri, Midoriya?" Ochako asked, a dark aura slowly surrounding her.
This cause Izuku to start becoming scared.
"Hado knows about Eri because she saw the little girl in Midoriya's bedroom when she was flying by." Mirio explained quickly on Izuku's behalf.
This cause confusion to appear Ochako's, Tsuyu's and Ejiro's faces whilst a shock expression appeared on Nejire's face before glancing towards Izuku.
"What were you doing flying past Midoriya's bedroom?" Ejiro asked, tilting his head to the side slightly.
"Hado was probably doing some early morning training." Tamaki spoke, causing all the class 1-A students present, apart from Izuku, to look at him, causing the third year student to flinch slightly at the sudden attention.
"Early morning training?" Tsuyu asked before glancing towards Nejire, whose shock expression has disappeared.
"Yes. Hado started to do early morning training, something that started around the same time that your class and 1-B started to train for the Provisional License Exam." Tamki explained, causing Ejiro and Ochako to look at Nejire as well.
"Is that true?" Ochako asked, tilting her head to the side.
"Yes. I guess that you guys just inspired me to train more." Nejire replied before chuckling slightly.
"Well, that's great that we're inspiring a upper classmate to train harder before they graduate." Ejiro said with a smile on his face.
"Yes. Yes it is." Nejire said before giving a look that says "You owe me a explanation later" to Izuku.
"Togata. I'm going to die because of you." Izuku thought whilst shivering.
"So, I guess that we're be hunting for these drug dealers then." Ejiro said with a confident smile on his face.
"I don't think so." Tsuyu said, causing Ejiro's smile to disappear slightly.
"What do you mean, Tsu?" Ejiro asked, giving the frog girl a questioning look.
"Do you remember about the conditions that Mr Aizawa told us about doing the Work Studies? He said that if anything major happens in one of the Work Studies, then the school will stop the Work Studies for the first years. And I think that the League Of Villains is something major. " Tsuyu pointed out, causing Ejiro to become quiet for a few seconds.
"B-but that's not certain. Sir Nighteye's sidekick said that there was a fight between the League Of Villains and the Shie Hassaikai, so there's a chance that those guys won't be involved with the Yakuza." Ejiro explained, causing Tsuyu to shake her head.
"I don't think that the school will take any chances. And if you tried to protest, Mr Aizawa will ignore it." Tsuyu explained, causing Ejiro to deflate.
"But then again, technically Midoriya would still be able to his Work Study since Eri is apart of the Work Study in a way." Mirio pointed out, causing a slight smile to appear on Izuku's face.
"I guess that your the lucky one then, Midoriya." Nejire said with a smile on her face.
"Hey. Since the Ryukyu agency and the Fut Gum agency is taking part in this investigation, us three are still able to help out with Eri." Ochako pointed out with a slight frown on her face as Ejiro and Tsuyu nodded their heads in agreement.
"It's good to hear that you four are considering the option of the school ending your Work Studies calmly, even though you did found a small loophole." A voice spoke, causing all seven UA students to turn their heads around to see Mr Aizawa walking from behind a support pillar.
"Wow. Never knew that you were a ears-dropper, Mr Aizawa. How much did you hear?" Mirio asked with a smirk on his face.
"I just came in when Asui started talking about the first year's Work Studies ending early." Mr Aizawa replied, not phased my Mirio's smirk.
"And you were right, Asui. We would have ended the Work Studies due to the possible team up between the League of Villains and the Shie Hassaikai. But what I'm going to say next will cause you to object, especially you, Midoriya." Mr Aizawa said, causing everyone to become confuse and noticed that the homeroom teacher has a grim expression on his face.
"I just received a phone call from the hospital who say that Eri got kidnapped." Mr Aizawa said, causing everyone to become shock and both Izuku's and Mirio's faces became pale.
Ever since the news that Eri got kidnapped, Izuku couldn't concentrate in class.
When asked about further details about the kidnapping, Mr Aizawa said that the whole thing was done swift and silently, so it was only when a member of staff checked on Eri found out that the child was kidnapped in the first place.
Even though Izuku tried to hide it, his fellow classmates noticed the depress aura surrounding him, to which Kasuki presumed that the dark green hair boy final realized that he can never be friends with Ochako again.
Speaking about the on goings between Katsuki and Ochako, Mr Aizawa is keeping a closer eye on the Explosion Quirk user in case his anger decided to go through the roof, landing him into more trouble.
When Mr Aizawa told Sir Nighteye about Eri's kidnapping, the former sidekick of All Might change tactics slightly, mainly focusing on finding where the Shie Hassaikai have taken Eri so that they can rescue the little girl.
This leads to Mr Aizawa decided to let Izuku, Ochako, Tsuyu and Ejiro to carry on with the Work Studies, knowing that they want to see this until the end and not sit around and doing nothing.
Currently, it's early evening and Izuku is doing some training, trying to focus his mind away from Eri.
"Turn the hips more and bend the leg before straightening it at the moment of attack." Izuku thought as he practice his Shoot Style, a style that the dark green hair boy created that mainly uses his legs to attack with rather than his arms.
However, a image of Eri's scared expression appeared in his head, causing Izuku to mess up the attack.
"Not again." Izuku muttered as he tried to get rid of the image out of his head.
"Training I see." A voice spoke, causing Izuku to turn around to see Mirio's head sticking out of a tree.
"Do you like to stick your head through objects?" Izuku asked, causing Mirio to snicker slightly.
"Just when I'm training or doing something important." Mirio replied, causing Izuku to raise a eye-brow.
"What do you mean by that?" The dark green hair boy asked just as Mirio's head disappeared before the entire of Mirio appeared from behind the tree.
"Do you really want to know?" Mirio asked with a smirk on his face and Izuku was about to open his mouth, but something stopped him.
"I think I pass." Izuku replied, causing Mirio to chuckle slightly.
"So, having trouble with your legs-style of attacking?" Mirio asked, him having observed the dark green hair boy.
"No. I just got distracted by….Eri." Izuku replied, causing the smile on Mirio's face to disappear.
"I know what you mean. I have trouble with my training as well…..along with everything else." Mirio admitted before sighing heavily.
"Togata. Do…..you feel that we just gave Eri false hope?" Izuku asked, causing Mirio's eyes to widened.
"What do you mean by that?" Mirio asked, feeling slightly confuse.
"Well. We're been promising her that everything will be okay, that she won't be suffering ever again by the hands of Shie Hassaikai. And now look what happened." Izuku explained as a sad expression appeared on his face.
"I see why you think that, but it can't be help. Everything can't run smoothly all the time, and Sir did say that the Shie Hassaikai will try anything to get her back. It was just at a bad moment when we had our guards down." Mirio explained, causing Izuku to nod his head slightly.
"I understand but…..I still feel bad that we just failed Eri in some way." Izuku said, causing Mirio to nod his head slightly.
"I know. So how are the others are feeling?" Mirio asked, referring to Ochako, Tsuyu and Ejiro.
"They….are sad by the news, but not depress that we are." Izuku replied, causing Mirio to nod his head.
"Hado is the same, or even more depress, since she got to know Eri and Tamaki…..well he's always depress so I don't know what he's feeling at the moment." Mirio admitted, causing Izuku to nod his head, as well snickering internally at the last part.
"But I'm sure everything will turn all right at the end. Sir is focusing on rescuing Eri once they have a lock down on her location." Mirio said in a reassuring tone of voice.
"Yeah. I hope so." Izuku said, nodding his head slightly.
Despite what Mirio said to Izuku, the dark green hair boy is still depress and it got worse with everyday that went pass.
But despite all of his depression, Izuku started to become more concentrated in class.
He, along with the other three students that involve with the Work Studying, seem far ahead with their studying, including a practical class which involves climbing a wall.
Katsuki claims that they learned some secret technique during their Work Study and demanded that they spill the beans.
At night when Nejire manage to sneak into the dark green hair boy's room, Izuku could feel her entire body shaking whilst she slept, causing Izuku to remember what Mirio said about her feelings in Eri's kidnapping.
Right now, school has just finished and Izuku, along with Tenya and Tsuyu, are heading back to the dorms.
"Midoriya. You really ought to eat a well made dinner. I know that with training that you eat little, as not to feel ill, but you can't neglect your health." Tenya explained whilst his arms move like that of a robot.
"I know, Ida. But…I just want to distract myself from something that happened during the Work Study." Izuku replied, causing Tsuyu to nod her head in agreement.
Tenya started to frown as a idea appeared in his head.
"Are the agencies that you four are at are doing a joint investigation?" Tenya asked, causing the dark green hair boy and frog Quirk user to freeze slightly.
"I'm asking this because you four seem to be grouped up more often, well apart from when Bakugo harassing Uraraka at times." Tenya explained just as Izuku and Tsuyu glanced at each other.
"We can't say to much, but the Nighteye agency requested help from not only Ryukyu's agency and Fat Gum's agency, but other heroes from all over the country because we're investigating a villain organization that has a wide spread network." Izuku explained vaguely, causing Tenya to nod his head slightly.
"Well, you four we have a very knowledgeable experience. Its a pity that Tokoyami doesn't seemed to be part of this joint investigation. But, should you take some tome out of the Work Study, Midoriya?" Tenya asked, becoming worried.
However, Izuku shook his head.
"I'll be fine, Ida. Mr Aizawa said that I can still take part in the Work Study. I want to see this until the end." Izuku explained, causing Tenya to stare at the dark green hair boy for a few seconds before nodding his head.
"If you say s/Midoriya!" A voice called, and interrupting Tenya at the same time, causing the three Class 1-A students to turn their heads to see Yuyu Haya approaching them.
"Haya? What does she want?" Izuku thought, becoming curious whilst starting to become nervous that Tenya and Tsuyu knows that she's here for him.
"Hi, H-Haya. Is there s-something that y-you want-?!" Izuku asked before Yuyu suddenly grabbed the dark green hair boy by the shoulders.
"We need to talk." Yuyu said in a serious tone of voice.
"…" Izuku didn't say anything as his face started to turn red.
"Er…..Who are you?" Tenya asked politely whilst becoming confuse, along with Tsuyu.
"My is Yuyu Haya. A third year student of the Support course." Yuyu introduce herself to Tenya and Tsuyu, haven't not paid attention to the other two Class 1-A students.
"And why do you want to speak to Izuku, Ribbit?" Tsuyu asked, tilting her head to the side slightly.
Yuyu raised a eye-brow at the fact that the Frog Quirk user called Izuku by his first name.
"That's Tsu. She likes to call people by their first names." Izuku explained, causing Yuyu to nod her head slowly.
"Well anyway. We need to talk." Yuyu said before suddenly dragging Izuku away with her.
"Huh?! What is going on Haya?" Izuku asked, becoming confuse as he tried to regain his balance.
"I'll explain when we meet up with Nejire." Yuyu explained, she having contacted the cyan haired girl before going over to pick up Izuku.
"O-okay." Izuku said, relaxing slightly.
With Tenya and Tsuyu, the two watched Izuku getting dragged away in silence.
"….Midoriya is full of surprises, being friends with a third year student other than Togata." Tenya said, not really sure how to comprehended what just happened.
"Yes, Ribbit." Tsuyu said in agreement, nodding her head slightly with a thoughtful expression.
"So, why did you brought us here, Haya?" Izuku asked in a confuse tone of voice.
Currently, Yuyu has brought Izuku and Nejire to a coffee shop which is some walking distance away from UA.
The three of them are sitting at circular enclosed space.
"Yes. I'm wondering as well." Nejire said, causing Izuku to stare at his girlfriend, who he's sitting beside, with a slightly surprise expression on his face.
"You don't know?" Izuku asked, causing Nejire to shake her head.
"Nope! Yuyu just contacted me saying that we need to talk along with you." Nejire explained, causing Izuku to nod his head slightly before turning his attention towards Yuyu who is sitting on the other side of the table.
"I'm going straight to the point here. You two, along with Togata, have been depress for the past few days, what is going on?" Yuyu asked, staring at the two with a firm stare.
Izuku and Nejire glanced at each other before nodding their heads after a few seconds of silent debating.
The two told Yuyu about what's been happening with their Work Study, mainly about Eri.
"So that's who you been seeing then. This little girl Eri." Yuyu said with a realization expression on her face, she having been wondering on who Nejire and Izuku, along with Mirio, are visiting at the hospital.
"Yes. A scared little girl." Nejire said, causing Yuyu to gain a sad expression on her face.
"How awful. First getting saved from a abusive life, but then got taken back a few days later." Yuyu mused, causing Izuku to flinch.
"Oh! Sorry, Midoriya." Yuyu said in apologetic tone of voice, not realizing that Eri getting kidnapped is a touchy subject for the dark green hair boy.
"So, what's happening now?" Yuyu asked, becoming curious.
"Well, Sir Nighteye is focusing his attention on finding where Eri is. And then organizing some sort of rescue party I supposed." Nejire guessed with a thoughtful expression on her face.
"I wouldn't be surprised that they find Eri's location soon. With so many heroes being involved with the search, it won't take long." Yuyu commented, causing Izuku and Nejire to nod their heads slightly.
It was then that a thought appeared in Yuyu's head.
"You two really took a real shine to this girl?" Yuyu asked, a small a smirk appearing on his face.
The question caused Izuku and Nejire to gain a slight surprise expression on their face.
"Well, Eri is scared. Not by Overhaul or the Shie Hassaikai, but also her Quirk, being afraid that she may hurt someone with it. So comforting the girl seems the right thing to do. " Izuku explained, causing Yuyu to nod her head slightly.
"You two will make great parents in the future." Yuyu said suddenly, causing Izuku to gain a shock expression on his face whilst Nejire, who was drinking water at the time, to cough violently, spitting the water back into her glass.
"W-what?!" Izuku exclaimed, his face turning red.
"Well. You two are acting like emotional support pillar for Eri. So I wouldn't be surprised that the two of you will have children in the future." Yuyu explained, her smirk widening slightly.
"W-w-well. We have to think of our careers first. Being a hero and a parent at the same time seem a big task, right Nejire?" Izuku explained before glancing towards his girlfriend who had a daydream expression on her face.
"Wait. She's actually thinking about it?!" Izuku exclaimed in his head, shocked.
"Anyway." Yuyu said, sounding serious and snapping the other two out of their thoughts.
"When you two find Eri and get her back, give her all the emotional support that she needs." Yuyu said in a serious tone of voice, causing both Izuku and Nejire to nod their heads.
"We will, Yuyu. Don't you worry." Nejire said before wrapping a arm around Izuku and smiling.
Izuku gave a weak smile as well.
"That's good to hear. Maybe I can become a aunt in the future." Yuyu said, saying the last part in a low tone of voice.
However, both Izuku and Nejire heard her, causing them to start blushing.
And there we have it. I'm sorry about Eri's kidnapping, Hehehe. But I hope that you like Yuyu's appearance in this chapter. Anyway, please review and until next time.
