The commotion at the mall was still present. The police took 20 minutes to reach the crime scene and to start questioning the woman that was robbed. Ochako and the girls standed nearby to catch as much as they could of the conversation and find hints of how to locate the thief. In the meantime, Sero and Sato were sitting on a table and tried to shield the sight of the table from curious eyes. On top of it, six small boys were panicking and screaming.
- What the hell did that guy did?! - Kirishima was screaming at the two friends who were giants for them.
- I... have no idea... - Todoroki was sitted down, his legs crossed with his right hand in his chin, thinking.
- Just because we finally were hanging out with the girls! - Kaminari and Ojiro frustrated, walking around. Tokoyami just stand there looking at his Dark Shadow, now as tiny as him. Izuku was laying on the ground curled in a ball.
- This is the end of our non-existent careers as heros...
The girls were still grouped near the interrogation, waiting for any new information when a light tap on Momo's and Mina's shoulder signed that Toru had returned. They made a small circle with their bodies while the girl put her clothes back on.
- Ok, the information the woman gave was barely enough. - She started. - According to her, it was a man on his late 20s and he had a blue hair.
- So we should look for records of a man with a size reducing quirk in his late 20s... - Uraraka summarized. The girls all nodded and left towards the table where Sato and Sero were. The little boys noticed them approaching and they standed up with hope.
- Anything about the thief and how to get us back to normal? - Kirishima hardened up while asking. Unfortunately, the look on the girls faces cut down their hopes.
- No... We just have a age range and his quirk description... - Tsuyu said sad. Momo quickly tried to remedy it.
- B-But we're sure that we can find him! It's only a matter of time!
Everyone was a bit depressed at this point. Mina and Kirishima traded a significant look, and even though the boy did smile to her, she couldn't help but feel frustrated. Before she could say anything, they heard a loud bang and a certain blond getting close to the table.
- Hey! Do you guys know anything about this so-called thief? I just heard some people say it, so what are y... - He saw the table with the mini boys. He stared for a moment and then proceeded to kick it, making the boys all roll around with the sudden quake. - HOW USELESS CAN YOU GUYS BE TO, NOT ONLY LOSE A PIECE OF SHIT BUT ALSO GET TURNED INTO PATHETIC ANTS?
- Ka-Kacchan! He spilled a-
- I DON'T CARE DEKU! MY GOD!- He looked at the girls. - AND WHAT DID YOU DO HUH?
- We reacted a second too slow Bakugo, that's why... - Uraraka tried to argument, but she was cut off.
- So what, chestnut?! You all went on a fucking date and suddenly, you're not heroes anymore, only girlfriends! God fucking dammit! Tape! Sugar! Let's go, we are going to find this dude. - The two looked worried to each other and started getting up. The girls tried to intervene.
- Bakugo! We can help too!
- Yeah, we know some information about the guy. - He made a explosion, angry.
- No! You can take those pieces of shit back to the dorm and take care of them! - The girls tried to talk again and he exploded the air right in front of them, Knocking the girls back. In a moment he felt six small, but strong fists connecting with his face. The blow made him step back even angrier. From the ground in front of him, all six boys stood looking up to him.
- There's no reason to do that Kacchan!
- Try that again, I really want to see how much I can burn and freeze like this.
Bakugo clenched his fist, his teeth grinding and his eyes piercing them.
- Just do as I say for once! Before I regret doing your job of finding the bastard! - He turned around and walked off. Sero and Sato murmured a "Sorry guys" and went after Bakugo, worried that he could cause trouble.
The girls started getting up from the knock back when the six minis came with worries on their faces.
- Are you girls ok? - Izuku asked.
- Owie, that was unnecessary... - Mina sat down scratching her head.
- It was our fault, we shouldn't have jumped to fight the thief. - Tokoyami apologized, to which Tsuyu replied.
- We lagged behind as well, ribbit. - Toru proceeded to sigh as she got up.
- We should go back now, people are staring at us. - Everyone looked around, they really brought attention to them.
- C'mon then, let's go back. - Kirishima tried to take lead of the group, but, as they soon noticed, it would be a really long travel home for the affected boys.
- We'll carry you guys. - Uraraka put her hands around Izuku, taking care not to make him wheightless. The other girls proceeded to do the same, and even if the boys got embarrassed by it, they didn't protest.
- Not being rude or anything but... It's kinda scary... - Ojiro knew that Toru was carrying him, but it was like he was just flying, the girl let out a small smile. Momo, on the other hand, quickly produced a chair on her shoulder, where Todoroki could stay seated on during the walk. Compared to earlier that day, now everyone was quiet for the most part. The girls couldn't help but feel like they were at fault for the boys. The boys didn't knew how to properly say that nothing was the girls fault.
By the time they got back, it was already 5PM. The girls dropped the boys off in the table on the lounge and sat around on the sofas. The awkward silence still remained in the room, until Mina's cell phone rang and startled everyone. She took it and saw a message waiting for her.
- It's Sero. He said that he, Bakugo and Sato may have found some nice hints of the man's whereabouts and that the others are on their way back.
The students let out a big sigh in relief. Just them, they noticed how heavy the room felt. Kaminari took the lead.
- Sorry girls. We shouldn't have been so careless there... - It took everyone by surprise. Ojiro followed.
- I... don't know if I talk for all of us, but we were having a lot of fun. The last thing we needed was for you to be dragged into hero work. The other four nodded and let out sounds of agreement. Kyoka was the one who started.
- We are sorry too you know? It wasn't like we wanted to leave everything to you, but... - she considered a bit. - It's been a while since we all had some fun and could just be teenagers.
- I missed those days. - Tsuyu agreed.
- We got worried when the smoke took you. - Uraraka was crossing her hands in front of her. Izuku lead the conversation while blushing.
- We were reckless and...
- We wanted to show off a bit. - Kirishima finished the sentence scratching his head. The boys all mimicked him.
- Th-There was no need for such a thing! We all had fun on the crossing. - Momo said. Kyoka got up at this moment.
- Guys! I guess it's clear that both sides are sorry for the way we acted! - Toru also got up.
- Yeah! And just like Momo said, we had fun!
- It's not like out situation is permanent anyway. - Todoroki shrugged the boys problems away.
- With Bakugo searching for the guy, we may be back to normal soon enough. - Tokoyami clarified. A variation of Bakugo blasting the hooded man crossed through everyone's mind.
- Just a matter of time! - Tsuyu chanted to which everyone nodded and laughed a bit.
- Until then, we'll help you guys out! To repay you! - Uraraka smiled.
The door to the dorms opened and a large build crossed through the door, three pairs of shining eyes by his feet.
