The battle was won. Iida returned to the school campus in order to relay a message. Within half an hour, the police had arrived at the facility, and arrested all of the villains. While the vast majority of the villains, having been taken care of by Class 1A, were taken into custody, Tomura Shigaraki, Kurogiri, and Nomu were in the process of an immediate transfer to Tartarus, the highest-security prison in the world. Although most of the class was relatively unharmed, Yaoyorozu, Jiro, Aizawa, and Thirteen were taken to the hospital immediately, where Recovery Girl met them in order to proceed with a swift healing process.
"I can't believe something like this happened." All Might said as quietly as his loud voice would allow him. "All while I was resting."
"Don't fret over that. Just be glad that Son got here when she did." Kan had told him, catching his attention.
"Son? I can't imagine that a student with a flying Quirk could prove very combative in the situation."
"All Might. Do you see that girl over there?" Kan said as he pointed to the fusion of the two students. "Those girls, Pan Son and Bulla Brief, they did something, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared, and that girl was where they were standing. I think it's safe to say that someway, somehow, they fused together."
"Tgh?! Fused together?!" All Might repeated in shock.
"Don't get surprised just yet." Kan told him, breaking his gaze from the fusion and turning to All Might. "That creature overwhelmed your students like an immovable wall. I'd be hard-pressed to say that it could even give you a run for your money. And yet, when they fused together, despite their weaker individual strengths, they immediately overpowered that creature. As if it were a helpless child."
"What?! Are you sure?!" All Might asked as Kan nodded.
"I can't explain it very well. It's best just to ask them directly. After all, half of that girl is your student." He told him as he turned away.
"Like a helpless child... Something as strong as me..."
"I still can't believe it. I'm trying to fathom everything." Uraraka said, spinning her hands in circular patterns on either side of her head.
"It's incredible, really! Being able to not just fuse together, with both Quirks intact, but combine and multiply your strength!" Midoriya praised as Ashido joined the conversation.
"I couldn't believe my eyes! You're amazing! My name's Mina Ashido, could you show me how to do that?!" She said excitedly.
"Yes, it'd be quite interesting for you to explain this method to us." Iida suggested as several pairs of eyes gazed onto Bullan.
"Hey, hey! I'm not even sure how I did it myself!" She said, waving her hands in front of her as Ashido pouted. It's obvious, really. The Potara Earrings. I can't tell them that, however, not just yet. If word of this got out, who knows how strong someone could become...
"You don't have the slightest clue?" Todoroki chimed in as he walked up to them.
"Not at all." As Bullan answered, she began to glow bright, and once the white light enveloped her, it split into two. As the dual lights faded, a scuffed up Bulla and an intact Pan stood in Bullan's place.
"Not a clue. And it looks like the fusion has a limit." Pan explained as Bulla fell forward. Pan caught her and hoisted her up, pulling her arm over her shoulder. "How are you feeling?"
"Like a pile of crap..." She said with a smile, looking up to her best friend.
"Hehe... You look like a pile of crap..." Pan told her. The two chuckled, and Mr. Kan directed the students to gather at the front gate. Within the hour since the fusion of Bulla and Pan, the USJ was full of police officers and prison buses.
As Class 1A gathered around outside of the facility, a detective counted off the number of students that should have been present. "Alright, so it seems that eighteen of you are present, as needed. What about you, young lady?" He asked, leaning over to look Bulla in the eye. "Are you sure that you don't require any medical attention?"
"I'll be alright, Sir, I'm just a little scuffed up. Thank you for your concern." She told the detective.
"Well, then, you must made of bricks." He told her with a smile. "If you ever need something to fall back on, try joining the police force. I'm sure we could use a little fighter like yourself."
"I'll consider it, Sir." She told him. As he turned away to report his numbers to a fellow officer, the students began to chat among themselves. Despite the scattered topics, every small group just seemed to have a similar topic. Bulla and her fusion.
"Brief! That was so incredible, what you did!" Hagakure said, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Oh, thanks." Seeing, or rather, not seeing Hagakure caused a thought to cross Bulla's mind. "Hagakure... Where were you at?"
"I was in the Landslide Zone, with Todoroki!" She responded excitedly. What? That's impossible, though. I would have felt her energy there. Why would she lie about something like that?
"Oh, is that so? I'm sure you had nothing to worry about with him there." Brief told her before approaching Midoriya. "Hey, Midoriya, where did you get sent to?"
"Oh, I was in the Shipwreck Zone with Asui and Mineta." He explained, pointing to the two across the crowd.
"I told you to call me Tsu. Ribbit." She retorted as she turned to Aoyama, who put a hand on her shoulder.
"Well, I want to thank you for saving me, or rather, saving Bullan back there. If it wasn't for you and Uraraka and Iida, I don't think that I'd be able to come back as a hero."
"Oh, it was nothing, really, Brief." Midoriya told her with a nervous laugh.
"Bulla. I want the class officers to start communicating with first names, Izuku." She told him, reaching out to shake his hand.
"Oh, alright, Bulla." Midoriya said as the detective returned.
"Alright, let's get you all home. After what you've been through today, there won't be any need to question you, right away." He explained.
"Mr. Detective," Bulla suddenly spoke up, "how's Jiro, and Yaoyorozu?" She asked. He took the time to call the hospital and put the phone on speaker so that they could hear the nurse speak.
"Jiro seems to have some fractured ribs, and bleeding from the head, while one of Yaoyorozu's arms were fractured, most likely from reaching out to defend her friend. Yaoyorozu also has a fracture long the front of her skull, so we'll be keeping her overnight so that we can watch for any signs of a concussion." The nurse reported. "All things considered, they should both make a full recovery."
"Well, you heard her." The detective said as Asui hopped forward.
"Mr. Detective, what about Mr. Aizawa?" She asked.
"Oh, the bones in his arms splintered, and he's got facial fracturing. Fortunately he seems to be lacking any serious brain damage. However, his orbital floor has been almost completely destroyed. We can't tell for sure if his vision will be impaired or not after recovering." She continued explained as Ashido stepped forward next.
"Let me guess, you want to know about Thirteen, is that right?" The detective asked her with a smile.
"T-That's right, Mr. Detective." Ashido confirmed.
"Well, she'll be fine. Despite some pretty bad lacerations to the back, she'll pull through better than before." He explained, allowing them to smile in relief. "Well then, let's get you all back to class."
"Yes, Sir." The class said in unison as they began to board the bus. With the USJ fleeting in the distance behind them, everyone took a sigh of relief, now having been freed of what seemed to be a waking nightmare.
Class 1A soon returned to their school, and as the evening sun fell in the west, and the students found the courage deep within to face any challenge that they may face in the future, the curtains closed on the first chapter of their journeys to becoming pro heroes.
