"Nomu kill him!" He hears the raspy-voiced villain scream as the nomu moves, meeting All might. The shockwaves shake the building as he continues to hold the teleporter down, knowing how quickly he would be able to turn the tide of battle. Or help the blue haired villain escape. He sees almight suplex the nomu into the ground burying it up to its neck and crushing its brain through cement stunning it.
"Let me go, and my master will give you riches beyond anything you could imagine, power beyond your wildest dreams."
"I'm plenty powerful, and I was born into riches." Twice' he adds on in his head before running another flame along the brace, hotter than the last as a warning. He glances up seeing other heroes arriving, spreading out to help his classmates.
"It's over, You've lost."
"Is it over?" Kirigiri asks, shifting his head to see Shigaraki asleep, midnight in front of him.
"Then I suppose it is time for sensei to retrieve us." a red light flickers from inside kirigiri's chest black sludge beginning to pour from his mouth and below from the unconscious shigaraki.
"No!" Zuko snarls, falling back and unleashing a blast of fire into the sludge but knowing it would be too late. He lets up scanning the area for fleeing villains before setting off towards his teachers, finding midnight surrounded by a number of unconscious enemies.
"Head for the exit, your class is gathering there."
"Azula was taken to a place called dagobah beach by the one with a portal quirk." he tells her.
"I'll inform the principal," she tells him and he nods heading towards the front finding most of his classmates already there.
"Zuko!" Mina yells running up to him.
"Have you seen Azula?!"
"She's at dagobah beach, The portal sent her away"
"Dagobah? The trash heap?"
"Actually it's clean now, someone cleaned it up."
"Midnight has informed the principle, and if anyone can take care of themselves it is azula." Zuko tells them as police and hero association vans people in heavy armor rushing out to detain the villains.

Zuko finishes giving his report to the police officers and is told to head to the bus to wait on their teachers, Zuko quickly makes his way to bus the door opening for him as Iida continues his self-ordained task of operating the door lever.
"Please take the seat you were previously in." he tells him and zuko decides to humor him by taking his seat.
"So we asked everyone else where they were and who they were with and no one saw you after we were teleported."
"I detained the warper, It was the best course of action."
"If the warper was detained, what took the hands guy?"
"A secondary warp, They wanted to make sure they didn't lose their general on his first mission."
"General, are you implying that he wasn't the leader?" Kaminari asks, leaning over his seat.
"That manchild wasn't a leader." zuko is sure of that face, and he's sure of that, he had heard whispers of the league gathering power in his movements as the blue spirit but had never been able to gather what they were planning to do, he'd have to begin hunting for the true leader, and if there's one thing Zuko is good at its hunting down people who didn't want to be found. Over the next ten minutes
An interesting suggestion. Nedzu says stepping onto the bus followed by midnight.
"We will be returning to campus shortly and all of your parents will be called in to collect you, you will be given the next two days off in light of recent events, I would like to apologize for allowing this to happen on my watch,'' Nedzu tells them as midnight sits down in the driver's seat starting up the bus.
"Everyone in your seats," Iida tells them to sit down as the bus takes off.

"Todoroki your father has given you permission to escort yourself and your brother home." midnight informs.
"Then we will take our leave, with your permission of course." Zuko tells her and she grins.
"Oh, a boy with manners. Those are always the most fun," she says as they leave the room heading for the front exit walking towards the gate and heading towards the train station.
"You can handle getting home right?" Zuko asks and Shoto nods.
"Where are you going?"
"Don't worry about it, ill be home in a few hours," he says turning and heading for another train walking inside. He rides for a few minutes before he feels eyes on his back turning to see shoto sitting down at the back of the train car. He ignores him until they reach their destination quickly losing shoto in the crowd and ducking into an alleyway scaling the side of a building and stepping onto the rooftop. looking over the edge seeing shoto scanning the crowd for his brother.
"That was a good evasion, who's the kid?" a voice asks from above and Zuko turns
around seeing a woman lounging on the roof above the door into the building.
"My younger brother, Why are you on this roof burnin is my father here."
"Don't know your daddy kid, but I'm taking over Sunshines patrol today."
"My father's Endeavour, Has sunshine brought Azula home yet?"
"I thought Endeavour only had one son."
"No, he has four sons and a daughter. But Shoto's his favorite," he says looking back down and seeing shoto gone.
"Having a favorite child a dick move, And I don't know if little Zula's back yet.
"Little Zula-" he says amused."-Did she try to burn you when you first called her that?" he asks and she grins.
"She tried, but I don't burn easily."
"She must not have been really trying then, if Azula wants something burned there is usually no way to stop her. Shoto should have given up now so I'm going to be on my way, Fair warning Endeavours going to be in a foul mood for the next while… more than normal anyways."
Zuko warns leaning back and letting himself fall over the edge, burning running to the edge seeing him gone.
"I like this one," she says to herself. Heading for the exit ending her break.

Zuko knocks on Azula's door.
"One moment!" a voice yells from inside and footsteps approach, a shadow moving across the peephole as sunshine looks through. The locks click as it's pulled open.
"Hello, may I help you?"
"I'm one of Azula's classmates, I wanted to check on her."
"Oh that's so nice of you, Mina's already here would you like me to get them for you."
"Yes, that would be great. Thank you ms sunshine," he says and she pauses face lighting up.
"Azula talks about me?" she asks and Zuko nods.
"Only nice things, and from Azula that says a lot." she smiles, turning towards azula's room walking down the hallway.
"Oh Azula-" she says in a singsong voice "The boy at the door told me you've been saying nice things about me, is it true?" she says, throwing open her daughter's door.
"Who's been lying to you?" Azula deadpans.
"Lie all you want Azula, I know the truth now," she says and Azula steps out into the hallway seeing Zuko.
"And you believed him."
"Mina pushes Azula out of the way, sliding into the hallway.
"Todoroki hi!" she says waving and sunshine straightens up.
"Todoroki?! My boss's kid that you somehow know?" she asks to clarify and Azula nods sunshine spinning around and walking stiffly over to Zuko.
"Please come in and sit, are you hungry? Or thirsty?" she all but drags him over to the couch sitting him down mina snorting.
"Is your mom in trouble at work again?: she whispers very loudly.
"She oversleeps far too often." Azula agrees and Sunshine's face falls.
"I try, but waking up is so hard," she says, trying to gain sympathy.
"Be an adult." Azula delivers viciously.
"Aww Azula don't be mean." her mother whines and Azula looks between the two, in both lives, he was unused to positive parent-child interaction, and this was making him feel out of his element.
"Hey, Zuko looks like he might bolt," Mina says and all eyes come to rest on Zuko whose eyes glance to the nearest window.
"He might bolt, Zuzu isn't fond of parents," Azula adds on giving her mother a look as she walks over sitting across from her.
"So why did you come dumdum?"
"To ask you about the warp user. Did you notice anything as you fought him, did he say anything?"
"No, he seemed to do what the blue-haired manchild said. What kind of leader sends a man like that into battle" she scoffs and Zuko nods.
"I burnt him, but I hesitated."
"You've always been... merciful." She decides carefully on the word.
"Many would say otherwise," he tells her and she scoffs.
"From the water tribes or from the earth kingdom maybe.'' Zuko glances at her mother and Mina who were off to the side.
"What's the earth kingdom?" mina asks and Azula blinks as if she had let her guard down, something Zuko had never seen her do.
"Nothing of import," she says and Mina walks over laying across the armrests over Azula's lap.
"Ah come on don't be mean, what's the earth kingdom, Zula."
"Thank you for letting me into your home ms sunshine," Zuko says standing up and bowing to her before leaving Azula to handle Mina's curiosity, feeling a glare on his back as he goes.

Zuko walks into his home to find Shoto and yumi waiting for him in the living room.
"Zuko where were you?! She asks rushing over to check him over.
"I went to see a friend."
"You have friends?!" she asks, confused.
"Was it Azula?" Shoto asks and Fumi turns to him.
"Who's Azula?"
"She's one of our classmates, have I known her from years ago?"
"Zuko you were attacked today and then you disappeared? We were so worried waiting for you."
"You don't need to worry about me yumi, I'm plenty capable of taking care of myself.
"With the quirk, you've been hiding for years?" she asks and he nods Fumi pinching her brow.
"Let's put a pin in that for a moment, You can't just disappear for hours, especially not after an attack."
"Fine, next time I get attacked by a villain I'll text you."
"I want to argue more but I know this is the best possible outcome for this, Dinners in the fridge you can heat it up.'' She walks off tired of arguing with her stubborn younger sibling Shoto waiting until she's out of hearing range.
"You knew I was following you."
"I did, it wasn't hard," Zuko admits, and Shoto nods.
"I'll have to work on that," he says walking out of the room Zuko heading up to his room changing for bed, knowing tomorrow would be a very long day.
