"We will definitely take Eri next time..."

"...and protect her!" Mirio and Izuku declared in unison, determination in their voices.

Rock Lock clicked his tongue, "it's fine for the kids to show off, but if it's what we think, that girl's the crux the young head will want to hide, right? She got out because of some kind of trouble. On top of that, some kid heroes saw her! You think he'll just keep her at home? I wouldn't if I were him."

Yuko's face was blank as she looked over at the hero, 'who's to say she was ever at home in the first place?'

"Even if we push our way in, it won't matter if she's not there. Have you already identified where she is?" Yuko, though she wasn't a fan of the hero's attitude at the moment, knew he was right, and she wasn't the only one.

"He's right. How about it, Nighteye?" Ryukyu asked.

"That is the real issue." Nighteye confessed, "since we don't know how far their plans have gotten, we have one chance to strike when it counts. To that end, we have found groups with connections to the Hassaikai or land owned by the Hassaikai and made a thorough a list as possible."

The screen changed, giving view of a map, Yuko scanning over the many locations belonging to the Hassaikai.

"I would like you all to investigate each place and narrow the list down to possible locations." Nighteye explained.

"So that's why you asked minor heroes like us." Yuko blinked, looking towards the end of the table, where, who she thinks is Mr. Brave, sat.

"What do you mean?" The hero beside him questioned.

"Look." The hero gestured towards the map, "the heroes here and the localities where they work are the same! Heroes were chosen who knew the areas." Yuko didn't know most of these heroes, and if she did, it was only because of the news, but she knew he was probably right.

"For someone who was All Might's former sidekick, you sure are careful." Yuko looked around confused, she had no idea Nighteye was All Might's former sidekick, she didn't keep up with anything relating to heroes, if it wasn't already obvious.

"While we're takin' our time, that little girl, Eri, is probably cryin'!" Fatgum shouted, his fists clenched at his sides. Yuko looking up at him with a sigh.

"We cannot become All Might." Nighteye calmly shut him down.

"That's why we must put together our analysis and predictions and try to make the possibility of saving her as close to 100% as we can."

"We can't rush." Yuko looked back down at the table, once again looking at the older hero, who's name she still has yet to know.

"If we make a big fuss about this and then don't get her, this could be the kindling for something bigger. Like how Stain's capture became like an ad for the League. In fact, that might've been the intent behind distributing Quirk-destroying weapons to those hoodlums."

"You're thinkin' too much!" Yuko sighed yet again at Fatgum's outburst, she too wanted to save the girl, but she knew it wasn't logical to rush in without information.

"If you keep sayin' stuff like that, you won't be able to do anythin'!" Yuko looked at the hero, shaking her head.

"Um..." She looked back, finding Aizawa raising his hand, "can I ask a question?"

Nighteye nodded, the underground hero continuing, "I don't know how your Quirk works exactly, Sir Nighteye, but if you can predict the future, then why don't you use Foresight to see our futures? If we continue like this, it seems a bit illogical."

Yuko looked over at Nighteye, waiting for his response. "I...cannot do that." Yuko looked at him in confusion, "my Foresight requires a 24-hour interval between activations. In other words, I can only use it on one person for one hour each day." The hero held up one finger, for extra emphasis.

"In addition, it's played in my mind like a flashback. Please think of it as the ability to watch a film of someone else's life for an hour after after activation. However, that film is all from the perspective of that person. All I can see is that person's actions and a little of their surroundings."

"Well, that should be enough to let you find out a lot, though. What do you mean by saying you can't do that?" Aizawa questioned, skeptical of his reasoning.

Nighteye pushed up his glasses, looking down at the table, "what if in that person's near future, death...just a merciless death was waiting?"

Yuko frowned, she understood his reason, if she had his Quirk she too wouldn't want to do anything that could possibly show someone's death to her, she wouldn't be able to take it.

"My Quirk should be used only after we have already drawn out the highest probability of success, when it can be used to ensure our victory. It shouldn't be used haphazardly when there are still so many uncertainties." Nighteye looked down, his hands folded.

"What?! But death is information, too!" Rock Lock argued, "we could put together a plan to avoid it!"

"It isn't the same as fortune-telling." Nighteye dismissed, "I have no conclusive evidence that it can be avoided."

"Nighteye, I don't get it! Fine, use it on me! I'll show you I can avoid it!" Rock Lock stubbornly began to argue.

"No." This caused the hero to shut up, things growing tense and quiet, Yuko looking over at Nighteye with creased eyebrows. Things were quiet as all eyes were on the former sidekick of the number one hero, he looking down at the table in silence.

"Anyway, let's do this." Ryukyu sighed, breaking the silence. "There's a girl in trouble. That's the most important thing."

Nighteye stood from his chair, looking over the room, "confirm the girl's whereabouts, and take her into our protection with the most accurate information we can get as quickly as possible. I'm counting on all of your help."

Yuko had her eyes shut, leaning against a wall, with her arms crossed over her chest. The others sat at a table, with both Mirio and Izuku looking down, sulking and frustrated.

"If only I had taken her back then, even if I had to do it by force, right now, Eri would be..." Izuku mumbled, the others looking at him sadly. Yuko peeked an eye open, looking over at the group.

"I see, something like that happened..." Eijiro muttered, his jaw tight, "i-it's so frustrating."

Yuko sighed, pushing herself off the wall, walking over to them. She placed her hands on the table, well slammed, startling all of them. Her crimson eyes narrowed on the sulking two.

"Yuko--" Tsu went to say only to get cut off as Yuko spoke, her words meant for Izuku and Mirio.

"I understand you're frustrating. You had a chance to save her but didn't." This caused Izuku to deflate even more, a downcasted look crossing his face.

"But like Nighteye said, you did the right thing! So stop sulking and suck it up! I doubt Eri is going to feel safe being saved by two heroes who are currently beating themselves up about something that's already happen! You can't change the past! But you can still save her!" She stared at the two with piercing eyes, before huffing as the elevator dinged.

Yuko straightened out, seeing Aizawa exit the elevator and make his way over. "Is this a wake or something?"

"Ribbit! Mr. Aizawa." Tsu called, as the underground hero stopped in front of them, beside Yuko.

"Oh, call me Eraser Head outside of school." Aizawa ordered, sighing, "but man, I was going to recommend that your work studies be suspended today..."

Eijiro shot from his seat, he and Yuko both letting out a "what?!"

"Why, after all this time?" Eijiro loudly questioned.

"You heard them say the League of Villains could be involved, right? That changes things." Aizawa answered, Yuko taking a step back as she looked down, she knew that, but she couldn't just sit around and do nothing.

"But you know, Midoriya, you still haven't regained my trust." Aizawa admitted, rubbing at his head.

"Unfortunately, I'm sure that if I stop you now, you'll rush out again on your own." The underground hero kneeled in front of the male, "I'll watch you. If you're going to do this, do this properly, Midoriya."

He placed his fist on his chest, lightly, "got that, problem child?" Izuku nodded witb tight lips.

"I'll say this to give you some peace of mind. The hand you missed grabbing onto did not necessarily mean despair for Eri." Aizawa pushed himself to his feet, still leaning forward as he pointed at his own eyes.

"Face forward." Izuku quickly stood, shouting his agreement.

"Mr. Aizawa...!" Ochaco shouted, Aizawa interrupting her, reminding her to call him his hero name.

"I will follow you for the rest of my life, Eraser Head!" Eijiro declared, Yuko quickly jumping over energetically.

"Me too!"

"That's too long." The black haired male sighed.

"Sorry!" She and Eijiro bowed.

"Kirishima, Toshiro, you're too loud." Ochaco shushed.

Mirio stood, turning to look over at Izuku, "Midoriya, next time, we'll definitely save her!" Mirio nodded at the greenette, he no longer sulking.

"Yes, definitely!"

Yuko grinned, "finally! I'd thought I'd have to resort to Night dropping you from the sky before you snapped out of it."

Her classmates looked over at her in horror, "what?!"

The girl laughed, "kidding!" She joked, sticking her tongue out at them, as they all sighed in relief.

"Maybe." She added quietly with a shrug.

"What?!"
