For the first time in a while, everyone in class 1-A had started to feel a little better. They finally had Katsuki back to normal, and though he was still the loud and rough person he was, they preferred this version over the other any day. Even though all seemed to be going well, they had no idea the challenge they were going to have to deal with very soon.

After Katsuki was well enough to get up and head back to class, Recovery Girl gave him another separate shot to make sure he'd be okay throughout the day. He returned to class along with his classmates and teachers.

Once he sat down, everyone began to ask him questions about his experience. "What did you feel like?" Kaminari asked.

"Yea were you scared?!" Toru blurted out. Everyone started to blurt out questions but Bakugo did his best to answer all of them in one shot.

"It was like my brain made an immediate switch over night. I couldn't think straight no matter how hard I tried. I just wanted to rip shit to shreds and destroy everything in sight. I felt like I was losing my mind." Bakugo said before slumping down a bit in his seat. "But I was with that nerd Deku…he was more of an insane fucker than me but I couldn't get enough of him. He was always with me and wanted me to do everything with him."

"Sounds like you got close to him" Kirishima smiled and winked at Bakugo, causing him to turn red.

"Yea I guess..but only because he confessed to me first!" Bakugo yelled. His face turned darker and darker as more of his classmates smirked at him.

"Didn't know you swung that way dude,"' Sero said and clapped. "I'm happy for you man!"

Bakugo slammed his fist down on the table. "Shut up, damn it!"

"But wait, if that womans quirk was an altering quirk, how come Izuku's feelings weren't altered? And how come Katsuki's haven't gone back?" Tsuyu asked Aizawa.

"Well the quirk alters your beliefs, not feelings. It changed there need to become heroes, but Katsuki's feelings towards Izuku isn't a belief." Aizawa stated.

"Damn it, enough of this!" Katsuki continued to yell in embarrassment. "Where is Deku?!"

Suddenly, the room became a little quieter. "Don't you remember? He's still in that room." Shoji stated softly.

Bakugo looked around the room, and noticed that everyone's faces had dropped a bit. Katsuki stared down at his desk did his best to access his memories before he was knocked out. Then he remembered. He remembered the gas filling the room, the smoke from all of his explosion attempts to get out, and he remembers Izuku's cry. His sweet deku cried and cried out to him to wake up but he had crashed and that was it.

"Yea…you guys chose me first.." Katsuki mumbled to himself. His head shot up and he looked at All Might, who stood in front of the classroom. "Is he better yet?!"

All Might took a deep breath before speaking. He hated delivering bad news, especially to his students. "No, young Bakugo, he has not."

"Why?!" Katsuki stood up. Everyone immediately stood back a couple of inches, except for one. "You have the antidote thing right?"

"We have it.." Todoroki stated, the one person who didn't move back. "But when I went to the control panel to open the vent in his room…I discovered that he destroyed it."

"He…destroyed it?" Katsuki asked again. He would've been kind of proud of Izuku any other day, but that vent was the only way to really get in anything to reach the prisoner. He destroyed the only way they didn't have to make contact with him.

"I'm going to have to go into the room and inject the antidote myself." All Might stated and held out a needle that was full of the potion that would cure their friend.

"What? Didn't you say that might cause a certain reaction out of him?" Todoroki looked at All Might in shock and Katsuki slumped back into his seat. Only Kirishima noticed his friend was lost in thought instead of listening on a tactic on how to save Izuku.

"It might, but we have no choice." Aizawa stated. "The last option now is someone has to make contact with him."

"But what if he slips out of your hands?" Tenya asked.

"He will not. We will get him for sure." All Might responds.

"Yea but what if you don't?" Momo counters. "What if he jumps to something drastic the minute he sees you try to corner him?"

"Let me do it!" Uraraka called out. "The minute I get in there I'll just make him float so he can't do much!"

"Absolutely not," Aizawa states. "The only reason why we let you kids help was because we figured that they might settle down once Izuku and Katsuki saw there friends. Also we didn't want to disturb pro heroes to clean up our mistake."

"But we can help again!" Both Ashido and Jiro said together.

"I'm sorry children, but that's-"

"I'm doing it." Bakugo speaks up suddenly just as All Might was going to refuse. Everyone looks at him, but he just stares back at All Might with a serious expression. "I'm giving him the cure."

"Young Katsuki, I understand how you feel, but that cannot happen." All Might says firmly.

Katsuki gritted his teeth but stands up calmly and walks towards his teacher. "Listen, I have a better shot than anyone in this room."

"I'm sorry?" All Might ask.

"Think of it like this, he only trusts me. I'm sure you've told him that I'd be healed, but he didn't believe you or he'd say it's impossible, so he still thinks I'm messed up like him. I'll simply walk in his cell and when he gets comfortable, I'll give him the antidote."

All Might looked at Aizawa and from the looks on their faces, Katsuki and everyone knew they knew it was a perfect idea. One way or another, they had to get the antidote into Izuku's body, and they had to do it today. If not, they weren't so sure how soon Izuku would rip his body apart from being so contained.

Aizawa pulled out his phone and seemed to be looking for something. "As much as I'd hate to admit it, you might actually be the one who has to do this. But this isn't going to be the same as when you were insane with him." All Might opened his hand and held out the needle with the cerium and Aizawa pulled up what seemed to be a surveillance camera on his phone. Bakugo's eyes widened and his jaw tightened when he saw who was on it.

"There's a tiny camera in his room that he hasn't discovered yet, but do you think you still want to go?" Aizawa asked and katsuki's eyes were still glued to the phone in horror.

Izuku was sitting on one of the walls, pulling his hair while non-stop yelling. "LET ME OUT ASSHOLES! I'LL KILL ALL OF YOU, GET ME OUT!" He looked up at the ceiling with his eyes wide open. They seemed they haven't closed in days and he wouldn't stop scratching or twitching. "GIVE HIM BACK! GIVE HIM BACK NOW I'LL KILL YOU!"

Bakugo continued to watch him scream and he couldn't help but feel a chill down his back as he gulped loudly. Still, at the end of the day he had to be the one. "Yea..Yea I'll still go." He said as he took the antidote from All Might's hand. "Let's get this over with."


Happy Holidays!
