"Are we all set?"
Ochaco turned to Tokoyami and Tsuyu. "You both good?"
Tsuyu linked her fingers with Tokoyami. "Yep."
Ochaco turned to the Chief and smiled. "Good to go."
Chief nodded. "Let's go."
The ship exited the Infinity and journeyed to the planet.
Chief sat across from Ochaco. "Give us the rundown."
Ochaco grabbed her tablet. "We are investigating some disturbances on a nearby moon, a former mining colony. There have been some sightings of Covenant forces. Our mission is to go in and evaluate the situation."
Tsuyu tapped her finger to her chin. "What would the Covenant want with an old mining colony?"
Ochaco shrugged her shoulders, "We don't know. As far as we can tell, there is nothing there of value."
"What is our main objective?" Tokoyami asked.
Ochaco swiped on her tablet. "Observe and evaluate. The main goal is to discover what they are doing there."
She pressed a few buttons on a side console, and the weapons locker revealed itself.
"Load up; we're landing shortly."
Tokoyami and Tsuyu stood and grabbed their weapons while Ochaco talked to the Chief.
"What are we to do if we encounter resistance?"
Chief stood and headed to the locker. "Resolve it. Get out as quickly as we can. We don't know how strong their forces, and we are not equipped to deal with that."
Ochaco smiled. "I'm not worried about that; we've got you!"
The Chief shook his head. "Only takes one Phantom to put an end to me."
Ochaco smiled never waivered. "I'd like to see it try."
"You might get your chance today.
"I'm not worried at all."
Chief tilted his head. "Why is that?"
Ochaco smile shined brighter. "Because I trust you. And besides, you've beaten the Covenant more times than Bakugou has 'DIE!', we've got this."
"And this is the kid they thought was okay to wear a Mjolnir armor and carry a gun?" The Chief asked in disbelief.
"Pretty much."
He chuckled. "They really are that desperate."
Ochaco laughed.
The two continued chatting, unaware of Tsuyu watching them.
Tsuyu stared at the two as Tokoyami leaned over to her.
"Why are you staring at them?"
Tsuyu whispered. "It's something Mina said."
Before the ships departed.
"Asui! Asui!"
Tsuyu turned to see Mina waving at her. "Come here!"
Tsuyu shuffled over to Mina, only to see that every girl from 1A except for Ochaco present.
"What's this?" Tsuyu asked.
Mina's eyes shined, and gave her a devilish grin. "Look at this!"
The girls of 1A huddled in as Mina held up a tablet and pressed play on a video.
The video showed the Master Chief approach Ochaco after their assignments.
"Mina, we were just there. Why are you showing us this?" Yaoyorozu asked.
Mina's smile increased. "THIS IS WHY!" She whisper-yelled.
The girl's eyes widened as they saw the Chief place a hand on Ochaco's shoulder.
"That's...a thing," Jirou stated.
"It gets beeeeetter!" Mina exclaimed.
The girl's eyes widened even further as Ochaco cried happy tears, and the Master Chief squeezed her shoulder.
"What are we supposed to make of that?" Tsuyu asked.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!" Mina exclaimed. "THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY PINING FOR EACH OTHER!"
"Do you know what they said?" Yaoyorozu asked.
"No!"
Jirou sighed. "Then why are you saying they are 'pining' for each other?"
"BECAUSE MY SHIPPER SENSES ARE TINGLING!" Mina exclaimed.
"Isn't he, like, old enough to be her dad?" Hagakure asked.
"NOPE! Well, technically yes, but he was frozen for over twenty years!" Mina stated.
Yaoyoruzo placed a finger on her chin. "That would lessen the age gap. I believe he was twenty-four before he was frozen."
"And Uraraka is not even twenty-two." Tsuyu stated.
"SEE!"
Tsuyu shook her head. "Come on, Mina, is this really a priority right now?"
"YES!"
The girls groaned.
"Okay, look," Mina stated softly. "I have a feeling about this! The last time I had this kind of feeling was with Yaoyorozu and Todoroki! Look how that turned out!"
Mina sighed. "Listen, she's been through a lot, so… just keep an eye out. See if there are any sparks there."
Mina gave them her puppy dog eyes. "Pleeeeeeeeeeease?!"
The girls groaned. "Fine."
Maybe Mina was on to something.
The console lit up, a red light flashing.
"We are approaching the drop zone. Get ready."
The three nodded and put their helmets on.
The darkness of the moon camouflaged the ship as they approached.
"GO!"
The four dropped from the ship and landed quietly. They pulled their weapons and advanced.
Chief turned to Tokoyami. "Tokoyami, Tsuyu, surveillance."
Tokoyami and Asui nodded. "Dark Shadow, GO!"
Tokoyami's chest plate opened, and Dark Shadow slithered out.
Dark Shadow slithered on the ground and examined the area; Tsuyu camouflaged herself and followed.
"No one's here!" Dark Shadow whispered.
Chief nodded. "Advance."
The team moved forward and walked until they made it to the massive mine.
"It's a ground-level mine?" Tsuyu asked.
Ochaco dispatched several drones. "Only part of it. Most of it is underground."
Tokoyami stared at the massive mine. "How big is this mine?"
Ochaco looked at her gauntlet screen. "Over seventy-eight percent of the moon is the mine."
"What kind of materials did they mine?" Tsusyu asked.
"Very standard stuff, ore, gold, nothing too big, it is strange that they would attack here."
Ochaco's gauntlet lit up and showed a map of the mine.
"Confirmed. There are Covenant forces in the mine."
Chief approached. "Can you get an estimate on how many there are?"
Ochaco shook her head. "Can't tell for sure."
She turned to the Chief. "What next?"
"We continue, get a better grasp on what they are doing."
He turned to Tsuyu and Tokoyami. "Let's move out."
The three nodded and followed the Chief.
They activated their night vision mode as they entered the mine.
They journeyed for several minutes before the Chief spoke to Ochaco.
"Commander Uraraka, what do your drones show?"
Ochaco checked her drones. "It's just a little further."
The sounds of clinking and clanging grew as they got closer, eventually seeing the light.
Chief held his hand up and motioned for them approach with more stealth.
They approached slowly and found the source of the disruption.
"What?" Ochaco gasped.
It was not a small contingent of Covenant forces, it was a large group. Mining machines drilled into the moon, grunts and jackals siphoning different resources from the ground.
Massive machines whirred and buzzed as dozens of enemy forces did their work.
"What are they doing?" Tokoyami asked.
"It looks like they are searching for something." Tsuyu replied.
Chief shook his head. "No, they found what they are looking for."
The three turned to him as he continued.
"Those machines, they are siphoning something from the moon. If you were searching for something or drilling for ore, you would not use those machines. They are refinery equipment."
Ochaco turned to him. "What would they be refining? Our scans don't show anything of value here."
"Looks like they found something. Can your drones get a better look?"
Ochaco pressed several buttons on her gauntlet. Her drones activated stealth mode and crept closer.
"It looks like they are making, some kind of… I can't tell. But it's some type of purple liquid."
Chief looked over Ochaco's shoulder at the feed.
"Wait, rewind that two seconds."
Ochaco rewound the drone feed and paused.
The Chief was silent for several moments before Ochaco turned to him. "Chief?"
The Master Chief pulled out his weapon. "Change of plans; we are destroying this place."
The three's eyes widened. "WHAT?!"
Chief turned to them. "Tokoyami, use Dark Shadow to draw their attention. Tsuyu, pick of the Jackals; you are best suited for that. Ochaco, you and I will engage directly and destroy the liquid and recover any data."
Tokoyami and Tsuyu moved into position. Ochaco reached out and placed a hand on the Chief's shoulder.
"There's something you aren't telling us?"
Chief turned to her. She felt emotions flood her as he stared at her. Her eyes widened as she felt them as if they were her own.
Fear.
The Chief placed a hand on hers and squeezed slightly. "No questions. I'll explain later, I promise."
Ochaco stared at him, debating what she was feeling.
"Please, trust me."
Ochaco noticed his voice raise slightly and felt a new sensation from the locket.
Desperation.
She nodded. "Yes, sir."
"Ready." Tokoyami radioed.
"Ready." Tsuyu radioed.
Chief and Ochaco got in their positions. "3...2...1… NOW!"
Dark Shadow roared as he appeared suddenly. The Grunts screamed as a massive clas ripped into the drill.
"ATTACK!" A Jackal yelled as they began to pepper Dark Shadow with their snipers.
The lead Jackal was suddenly whipped into the air by an unknown force before its neck was unceremoniously snapped. The other Jackals were unable to respond before their weapons were removed from them.
Ochaco and the Master Chief were on the main force as they engaged Dark Shadow. Green Electricity danced off the Chief as he punched straight into the jaw of an Elite. He grabbed its leg and slammed it into another Elite before stomping on a Grunt.
Ochaco killed several Grunts with her battle rifle before activating her wrist-blade. She stabbed it into the jaw of an Elite and used it as a shield from several Grunt blasts. She threw the dead Elite towards them before pressing her fingers against a massive drill. She lifted the drill and threw it at an oncoming squadron of Elites, crushing them instantly.
The Chief slammed his elbow into the arm of an Elite, a sickening snap echoing before he slammed its head to the ground. He pulled out his gravity hammer; the green electricity charging is before he slammed it into an excavator, catapulting it into the refinery equipment.
Dark Shadow roared as it slammed massive rocks on the Covenant, only for more to appear and blast at him.
"We can't keep this up for much longer!" Tokoyami radioed.
"Just a bit longer!" Chief replied as they made it to the command center.
Three hunters broke from a wall, one slamming into the Master Chief. The Chief collide with the ground.
The Chief dodged several blasts before hitting a Hunter with his Gravity Hammer.
"WATCH OUT!" Tsuyu yelled.
The Chief turned to late as an Elite fired a blast from a fallen hunters cannon. The blast hit the Chief's face.
"CHIEF!" Ochaco screamed as the Chief slammed into the ground.
Ochaco's heart stopped.
She felt something awaken in her. The locket burned around her neck, and it stoked the fires in her
heart.
PROTECT HIM! PROTECT DEKU! A foreign voice screamed.
Ochaco roared as she charged forward. She pressed her fingers against a large crane and leaped in the air. She swatted the Hunters away like flies, then tossed the crane at them.
She dropped next to the Chief, smoke covering his face.
"Chief?!"
No response.
"CHIEF?!"
Her heart dropped.
"DEKU?!"
A twitch.
She nearly sobbed as the Chief moved. The smoke cleared as he rose to his feet. Ochaco gasped when the smoke cleared.
Part of his helmet had been destroyed, exposing the upper right part of his face.
He opened his eyes, and Ochaco says the most beautiful green eye look at her.
"We need to push forward!"
Ochaco nodded.
The ground shook as more Elites showed up.
Ochaco felt the air change as the Chief clenched his fists.
"Stand back."
Ochaco obeyed as green electricity increased in power and volume. The ground began to crumble as the Master Chief's body became encompassed in a green aura. Red lines zigzagged up and down his armor before making an x over his helmet.
He pulled a fist back.
"DETROIT SMAAAAAASH!"
The impact of his attack caused a massive shockwave. Ochaco fell to the ground, her eyes wide.
She stood shakily and turned to the Covenant forces.
"No way…"
Where there were once several dozen Elites, Jackals and Grunts, were now a massive crater.
"Sir!"
The Chief turned to her. "Let's get to the control room!"
They entered, Ochaco shooting the Elite's with her shotgun, disabling their shields while the Chief finished them off with a blow to the head.
"There!"
Ochaco pointed to the table where the liquid sat. Chief rushed to it. He removed the lid and turned to Ochaco.
"Download the contents of the main hard drive!"
The Chief unloaded a shotgun shell and took the powder and inserted it into the liquid. The purple liquid reacted and changed to a green liquid before dissolving.
"GOT IT!" Ochaco exclaimed.
He went to the computer and entered several commands.
"We are pulling out! The mine is going to explode!"
Ochaco's eyes widened. "WHAT?!"
Chief grabbed her hand and started running. "PULL OUT!" He yelled over the comms.
Dark Shadow swiped at his foes before returning to Tokoyami. He and Tsuyu met up with the Chief and Ochaco as they ran.
The Chief pressed a button on his comms. "PICK UP! NOW!"
They exited the mine when the first set of explosions went off. They ran at top speed when the planet began to shake.
The ships appeared and opened its bay doors. They all leaped onto the ship and took off.
They saw hundreds of Covenant forces fleeing behind them, desperate to escape from the moon. They were in vain, as the moon began to crack and groan.
They escaped just as the moon exploded, the sheer light forcing them to cover their eyes.
"Are there any sight of the Covenant?" Chief asked.
Ochaco checked the scanners. "No, sir. All life signs are negative."
The Chief sighed. "Okay."
He turned to the group, all of whom had removed their helmets. "You all did well. I am sorry for the last-minute change of plans; you all performed well under pressure."
"Sir, permission to rest?" Tokoyami asked.
The Chief nodded, and Ochaco, Tokoyami, and Tsuyu sat on the bench and took a breather.
"That was intense." Tsuyu asked.
Tokoyami ran his fingers through her hair. "Are you alright?"
Tsuyu leaned into his touch. "Yeah. Just tired."
Ochaco sat down with them. "Our first mission, and we blew up a moon."
"It seems a new dose of excitement is now apart of our lives," Tokoyami stated.
"It's better with you here." Tsuyu said as she kissed Tokoyami on his beak.
Ochaco watched the two with a smile before she remembered the Master Chief.
She looked around and realized he was missing.
She thought for a moment before an idea occurred.
She excused herself and moved through the ship and went down to the hanger. Besides a warthog, it was abandoned.
With the exception of a green super-soldier.
She saw him leaning against a wall. His hands were placed against the wall, and he was breathing deeply.
She felt many things run through as the locket pulsed.
Fear.
Terror.
Anguish.
Loneliness.
"Sir?"
He tensed and swiftly turned around, his one green eye-piercing her soul.
"Commander."
Ochaco watched as he placed his twitching hands behind his back.
"You did well. Real good."
Ochaco softened her expression. "Sir? What happened back there?"
"What do you mean?"
"When I mentioned the purple liquid, you tensed up. What was it."
He shifted his stance. "Do you know what that liquid was?"
Ochaco shook her head.
The Chief tensed up. "I've seen it twice before. The first, on installation 05. And the second, on the Didact's fortress."
He took a deep breath. "That liquid is the single most dangerous substance in the universe. It has killed more things than anything else. It has destroyed civilizations, sent us to the brink of disaster, and even killed the Forerunners."
Ochaco's eyes widened in horror.
"The Nomu virus."
Ochaco's breathing hitched. "W-What?"
"Whatever they were mining here was able to be synthesized with other components to recreate the Nomu virus." The Chief stated.
"That's why you blew up the moon," Ochaco stated.
"Yes. The highest directive is to keep the Nomu's from ever wreaking havoc again." Chief stated firmly.
Ochaco breathed better. "But you said that whatever they were looking for in the mines was only part of it? What's the rest?"
"I don't know. Hopefully, the data you downloaded can shed some light on that."
Ochaco noticed that he kept his hands behind his back.
"Sir, there's something else?"
Chief's eyes remained unchanged.
"Sir, you… something happened. From the second you saw the virus to before I walked in, somethings wrong."
His eye gave away the briefest hint of fear before returning to normal. "It's nothing, commander. If you'll excuse me."
He turned and walked past her until she reached out and grabbed his arm.
"Commander?"
"Do you trust me?"
Chief turned to her. "What?"
She gave him a determined yet soft look. "Do you trust me, Master Chief?"
The Chief stared at her. "Yes."
"Then please…" She grabbed both of his hands and held them in hers. "Let me help you."
He looked at her, seeing nothing but compassion, care, and warmth in her eyes. He felt something move within him. His instincts screamed at him to run, to hide. To push away. But a familiar voice whispered to him.
Trust her.
He looked away. "I...I…."
"Are you scared?"
He continued to look away from her. "I can't afford to be weak. I have to be strong."
"Why?"
He looked back at her, his eyes betraying weariness. "I am this supposed 'greatest hero' of the UNSC. The whole reason your entire class was reassigned to the Infinity was to be paraded around with me to show everyone that the future is safe. I have to be strong. I can't allow anyone to lose faith or hope because I was weak."
Ochaco felt her heartbreak. "But you don't have to be."
The Chief shook his head. "I have no choice. It's my duty. I live to fight for the UNSC; my life does not matter."
"NO!"
The Chief's eyes widened at her outburst. She stared at him, her eyes filled with strength and conviction as she gripped his hands tighter.
"No single person has given more to this galaxy than you!" She declared. "Every single person owes their lives to you! You have gone above and beyond the call of duty! Don't let them manipulate you! Don't let them pressure you into sacrificing your whole life because of what some admiral tries to beat into you."
She moved her hands to his shoulders. "You deserve your own life! Not to give it away because it's what's expected of you! You matter to us! You matter to me!"
The Chief stared at her with wide eyes.
"You matter to me!" Ochaco exclaimed again.
She then pulled him into a hug, gripping onto him with ferocity.
"You matter to me."
Trust her. The voice whispered.
The Chief was silent for a moment before a shudder ripped through him. He returned her hug, pulling her tight against him.
Ochaco felt the shudder run through him as he returned her embrace. He laid his head on her shoulder, and she heard his labored breathing.
They stayed like that for a bit before eventually pulling away.
His eyes showed immense vulnerability as if it had been decades since he allowed himself to feel vulnerable.
She gripped his hands again. "Trust me."
He looked at her hands before turning back to her. She saw something change in his eyes.
Acceptance.
"Okay."
Ochaco pulled him to the nearby bench and sat down, her hands holding on to his.
They sat there for a few minutes before he spoke.
"I was seventeen when I first saw them."
"Mellisa? What happened to the captain?"
"I don't know. The transmission was cut off from the source."
The captain had contacted him, informing him that they had stumbled on what appeared to be a weapons room and were trying to gain access when the transmission cut off.
He descended to the last place they called in and was greeted with a strange sight.
"What is that?" Melissa asked.
It was a small, black organism with tentacles spurting out from it. It laid immobile when the Chief approached it.
The thing suddenly shrieked and leaped at the Chief. Its tentacles tried to wrap around his helmet but were quickly crushed by the Chief.
"Deku…"
The Chief turned and witnessed a nightmare.
He watched as humans screamed and ran away from an identical organism, only to be caught. The creature shoved a tentacle down his throat and made the man convulse as it entered his body. The man screamed, and his body started to bulge. His bones broke in his arm as it began to deform. Bones shot jaggedly out as his skin became charcoal grey. His screaming intensified as the rest of his body began to change. Blood poured from his eyes as his head started to swell. His jaw dislocated and morphed as jagged teeth shot from his gums. His skill ripped open as his brain was now exposed. He turned to the Chief, his eyes betraying fear that chilled the Master Chief's soul before morphing into pure white.
He was no longer a man. He was a monster.
He let out a blood-curdling shriek that sent terror down the Chief's and Melissa's spines.
The creature turned to him and shrieked before charging.
Chief fired several rounds from his rifle before punching the creature. The creature shrieked as it collides with the wall.
"Is it dead?" Melissa asked.
The Chief shot several more rounds into its body.
"It is now."
The sounds of shrieking took his attention, and he saw dozens of creatures advancing.
"RUN!" Melissa screamed.
The Chief ran, the sparks of One for All dancing off him as he escaped from the creatures.
He ran out of the building as the creatures poured out. He hopped in a Banshee and escaped.
"Deku…"
He looked at the base and watched as thousands of tiny creatures escaped the base.
"What...What are those things?"
"I'm searching the Forerunners database now," Melissa replied.
The Chief's breathing was labored as the events of what just happened played over and over again.
"Okay. They are called the Nomu."
Ochaco felt anguish rip through her as he recounted his story.
"I...I had to watch people I worked with, transformed into monsters." He shuddered. "They screamed and cried, bedding for me to help them."
His breathing became labored. "And I couldn't save them."
He choked back a sob. "They all counted on me, and I failed them."
His voice became tense. "They called me a hero, all because I destroyed the ring. They paraded me around like a mascot, all the while the families of those who lost someone grieved alone because everyone else was too busy celebrating me." He spat bitterly.
He stared at their joined hands, not realizing just how strong he was squeezing hers.
"I'm no hero. I'm just a scared kid, playing soldier. I don't deserve any recognition, any praise, and admiration. I'm a fraud."
"That's not true."
He looked up and saw her tear stricken face. "You are so much more than you think."
She smiled. "Do you know why I look up to you?"
He shook his head.
"I look up to you because you are not seeking glory. You're not cowering behind a desk; you are fighting the evil that wants to destroy us. You fought the nightmares and saved us. You fought when you were scared, and you gave us hope. You are a light to use because you are scared, but you fight on."
He stared at her, his eyes wide.
She smiled. "You are the greatest person I've ever met, and you deserve a life. One you choose. Never forget that."
He stared at her in silence before a tear ran down his face.
"T-Thank you, Ochaco."
Ochaco smiled. "Anytime."
The two sat there in silence, unaware of their hands still liked together.
And unaware of a certain frog girl watching them from the side of the room.
The Chief was currently in his room on the Infinity, his helmet off as it was under repairs.
Who are you?
He had several files on his desk, each one about a certain woman.
"Who are you, Uraraka Ochaco?"
He couldn't figure out how this woman he knew less than two months has already wiggled his way past his barriers. She had gained not only his trust but had gotten him to open up to her in ways he didn't think possible.
And that was before the memories.
He pressed a finger against his temple and closed his eyes.
Ever since the final battle with the Didact, something changed.
Before, they were just colleagues, albeit a little different as she had a hero-worship complex about him.
But after stopping the Didact, something was different.
He felt comfortable around her. More relaxed. She was easy to talk to, to be around. He found himself actually wanting to seek her company.
To see her smiling face.
He shook his head. "Need to focus."
He couldn't figure it out, and it was beginning to annoy him.
Did she have a connection to his mother? As far as he could tell, no.
His dad? Besides a few guest lectures, no.
He grits his teeth as he thought of the sperm donor that hurt his mother. None there either.
As far as he could tell, there was nothing connecting him to her, other than them serving together.
And the fact they got along really well.
And she was incredibly kind.
And had the best smile.
He shook his head as the strange thoughts interrupted him.
What am I missing?
She seemed to know just what he was feeling and what he needed.
She knew his name.
The name Melissa gave him.
It was like she was in his head.
He frowned. That was another problem.
Why was he able to see her memories?
It felt wrong, being able to see her past like this. He had no right, no right at all.
But he couldn't just tell her?
She might hate him.
She might leave him.
Leave him alone.
He shook his head. I will get to the bottom of this.
A buzzing on his gauntlet took his attention.
"Yes?" He spoke.
"Chief, I have your helmet here," Aizawa stated.
He nodded and put the files away before unlocking the door.
Aizawa walked in with his now repaired helmet, shutting and locking the door behind him. He set the helmet on the desk and stared at the Chief.
He smiled. "It's so strange, seeing you all so young while I've become an old man."
Deku smiled. "Last time I checked, forty-three isn't old, unless you are implying your wife if old."
The Chief laughed as pure terror erupted over Aizawa's face. "Be careful! She could hear you!"
The Chief finished his laugh. "Isn't she on the other side of the ship?"
"She has gifts."
The Chief chuckled. "And why are you complaining? You'll be a hundred and twenty before grey hairs start to come in."
Aizawa sighed. "I already have some from this ridiculous assignment."
The Chief smiled. "You act like you don't care, but you can't fool me. I've known you for too long. You love those kids."
Aizawa sighed. "Your right, except for one."
The Chief's smile disappeared as the atmosphere changed.
"I hear he is like his mother."
Aizawa noticed the tension in his voice.
"He's worse."
The Chief's fist clenched. "How was he allowed to get this far? I understood Mitsuki, but we were at war."
"The kid is promising. He aced all the tests and has the power to match his ego. They think he can be trained to behave." Aizawa replied.
"He will never be a Spartan if he can't learn to temper himself."
Aizawa's face shifted to a softer one. "Have you met with any of them yet?"
Chief stared at him. "The Howling Commandos?"
Aizawa nodded. "Nemuri and Mic all want to see you; you could probably get some time off."
The Chief shook his head. "I will, just not now. Still adjusting."
"Will, you ever see Mitsuki?"
The Chief tensed. "Why would I ever want to do that?"
"Because she's changed."
The Chief snorted. "I don't believe it."
Aizawa's face contorted with sadness.
"Just think about it, okay?"
"We'll see."
Aizawa stood to his feet. "Is there anything else you need?"
"Actually, can you get me all the reports on Uraraka?"
Aizawa quirked an eyebrow. "Why?"
He watched as the Chief shifted uncomfortably. "Just...have some questions."
Aizawa stared at him before replying. "I'll have them sent over right away."
"Thank you."
Aizawa nodded and left.
When did he start using only her last name?
"UGGGGH! Our mission was super boring!" Mina exclaimed before taking a bite of her food.
"Hey, we did some important work!" Kirishima defended.
"Yeah, and it was super boring!"
Yaoyorozu chuckled as she sipped her tea.
The mess hall was mostly empty. A few crew members and 1A were all that were present.
"How did your mission go?" Yaoyorozu asked Tsuyu.
"It went good. It was tense there when the moon exploded."
Silence enveloped the table as every eye stared at Tsuyu.
"WHAT?!" They exclaimed in unison.
"You exploded a moon?!" Jirou asked.
"Yep."
Mina wailed. "GREAT! While I get such taking rock surveys, Tsuyu gets to kick a** and take names with the Master Chief!"
Kirshishma laughed. "Gotta go, love you, babe." He said before kissing her cheek.
"What else happened?" Yaoyorozu asked, now only the girls, minus Ochaco.
Tsuyu tapped her chin. "Not much. We destroyed the moon, got back to the ship, Uraraka went to find the Chief, and then we came back here."
With the speed of light Mina appeared next to Tsuyu, her eyes wide and shining.
"Uraraka went to find who?" She asked.
Tusyu gulped as Mina's eyes shined as she leaned in; every girl leaned in, all very curious to hear Tsuyu.
"Uh, oh."
This fic has been my stress reliever! Always get happy with IzuOcha!
