Zoe fixed her beanie and hair as Mr. Aizawa walked off. Everyone watched him leave, surprised to see him being so friendly with Zoe. Something about it made everyone feel a little more relaxed. Midoriya had noticed that he did seem a little less intense ever since Eri showed up to help him.

"You're so lucky Zoe! Mr. Aizawa would usually kick someone out for sneaking around the school like that!" Kirishima cried out.

"Yeah. I'm surprised that he would even let you stay," Bakugo said as he crossed his arms.

"I think it's that Eri girl. Ever since you guys have gotten home, he feels not as strict. He's got a soft spot for her," Kaminari said to them.

"You're lucky he's not here to hear you say that," Jirou said to him, causing Kaminari to look around for him.

"I don't know about that. He still seems pretty strict with me," Midoriya said to them with a sweat drop on his forehead.

"Yeah, but you're always causing trouble," Ojiro said to him with a slight laugh.

That caused Midoriya to blush a lot, which got Zoe to laugh at him. He smiled through it and was happy to see Zoe looking so happy and full of joy. Something about having her over just made things feel less stressful. He felt like he could enjoy a meal with everyone.

"Dinner's almost ready! You can have some if you want to!" Sato said, getting really excited to make food for an extra guest.

"We've got plenty of ramen!" Yaoyorozu cried out, happy to see a new friend.

"That sounds amazing! I would love some," Zoe said back with sparkles in her eyes.

Everyone grabbed some and ate a freshly made bowl of ramen. Zoe's eyes sparkled at how absolutely amazing it looked. She dove right in and couldn't stop eating. Midoriya kind of figured that she didn't eat much of a meal when she was hiding from teachers. He just hoped that she wasn't spotted by Chrysalis at any point. He had a feeling probably not considering what happened during that commotion.

Midoriya ate some of his ramen, feeling so much comfort as he ate. His eyes sparkled from how amazing it tasted and how warm it made him feel.

"This ramen is amazing! I've never had freshly made ramen before! It was always that instant stuff. This is so much better!" Zoe exclaimed, making Sato and Yaoyorozu blush.

"I know, right? Sato and Yaoyorozu make the best ramen!" Kirishima cried out.

Midoriya was so hungry, but he slowed down a bit to enjoy this. He kept looking over at Zoe and felt a sense of relief seeing her here. His eyes sparkled, so happy to see an old friend finally here in U.A. He was about to eat some more ramen, but he felt his eye get that weird itchy feeling again. Before he could eat another bite, he felt his headache coming back. He tried not to draw attention, but it hurt and pretty quickly. Midoriya dropped his chopsticks, causing everyone to look up.

Midoriya gripped onto his head, feeling his headache start to make him feel dizzy.

"Deku, are you okay?" Zoe asked him with a concerned look on her face.

"Y-Yeah... I-I'm okay... I just--"

Then Midoriya felt a shooting pain go up his head, causing him to wince. It felt like Chrysalis's power was trying to get to him, but it wasn't strong enough to do anything more than give him headaches. Everyone worried about him, and Iida was concerned about his friend. Midoriya didn't feel like it was going away like it did with Iida, and he gripped onto his forehead.

"Midoriya! You need to see Recovery Girl if you keep getting headaches like this!" Iida cried out, not helping his headache.

Midoriya looked up to look at them, and everyone gasped in horror to see his eye glowing. Just purple eye was glowing, causing everyone to step back.

"Izuku. Your eye! It's glowing," Uraraka said with a lot of concern for him.

Midoriya looked away, worried that he might accidentally do something just by looking at them. He had a feeling that he shouldn't look at them until it goes away. He couldn't let Chrysalis do this, not when he was enjoying his time with Zoe and his friends. His headache soon dissipated, but he felt a little dizzy. Something about it made him feel like Chrysalis was trying to get through to him. It seems there wasn't enough of a connection to get him to do much.

The glowing stopped.

Midoriya felt a little dizzy as he sat up. Zoe looked at him, concerned about what was going on.

"I-I'm okay..." Midoriya said to them.

"No Midoriya. You're not okay!" Iida cried out as he stood up, "Clearly Chrysalis is doing this to you! You should go see Recovery Girl right now! You keep getting headaches, so I recommend you go to her!"

"I-Iida. I-I really don't think Recovery Girl can do anything about this..." Midoriya said, clearly still a little dizzy, "Once we get my Miraculous back, Ladybug said that she would reverse this."

"Yeah, but Izuku..." Uraraka said to him, a little worried.

"I'm okay. Really Ochaco... We'll get my Miraculous back soon," Midoriya said to her, "Zoe brought us the grimoires and recipes. Marinette will figure this out."

Everyone was hesitant to help him out over to Recovery Girl. Iida really wanted him to go over there, but if he really was okay with waiting a while, then he will wait too. Bakugo and Uraraka were worried about him, especially when his eye started to glow. They both knew that they had to do something about it soon. Hopefully things will be fine tomorrow night for their dinner plans.

After everyone ate, Zoe took a nice hot shower and got dressed into clothes that Jirou let her borrow. She really appreciated them letting her use the shower and borrowing Jirou's clothes. Class 1-A soon got ready to head over to Class 1-M's dormitory. Iida was still persistent about Midoriya going to see Recovery Girl, but Midoriya really wanted to go over with everyone else.

Zoe was a little nervous going over there, especially since Chloe was there.

"Are you okay, Zoe?" Uraraka asked her while they were getting ready to leave.

"I-I'm just... a little nervous about seeing everyone. Especially Chloe," Zoe explained as she rubbed her arm.

Everyone was already ready to head out, and Midoriya could tell that she wasn't sure about going over there. He walked up to her and put his hand on her shoulder for support.

"Zoe. Chloe really does miss you," Midoriya said to her, "She would probably love to know that you're here."

Midoriya noticed that she was still a little nervous. Something about it made him wonder if this had anything to do with her leaving. Midoriya realized that it must've hurt to find out that she left along with everyone else.

"I've never had this many friends before," Zoe tried to explain, "So when I found out that Ladybug and her half of her team had left, I didn't know what to do. Alya came to me because she needed more friends and teammates to help her out. I just didn't know I'd be going to Japan and actually seeing you guys again. It's actually kind of a lot to handle."

Midoriya's eyes widened in shock, not realizing that she ever felt this way before. He didn't even know that she didn't really have a lot of friends until just now.

"It's okay Zoe. I understand how you feel," Midoriya said to her with a smile, "I didn't have many friends in middle school back then. When I was quirkless, a lot of my classmates made fun of me. When I came to U.A., it was a lot to handle. Then I became friends with so many classmates here, and it ended up being much better than I couldn't hoped for. I think it will be the same for you."

Everyone was surprised to see Midoriya talk about this to Zoe. Bakugo couldn't help but look away as he mentioned middle school. Uraraka and Iida smiled, feeling really good to be friends with Midoriya.

Zoe took a deep breath in and out and soon felt a little relaxed. She smiled at Midoriya and felt like she could finally do this.

"Okay Deku. Let's go," Zoe said to him.

They all headed out of the dormitory, and Midoriya stayed by her side as they all made their way towards Class 1-M's dormitory. He could tell that she was still a little nervous, but she kept going anyway. Midoriya smiled and got a good feeling about this. It didn't take long for them to get over there since it was next door.

Midoriya walked up to the door while Zoe stayed behind everyone as a surprise. He looked back at Zoe, and she looked ready to go inside. Midoriya turned back to the door and knocked hard enough for them to hear it. After a long minute of waiting, Marinette opened the door and smiled when she saw Midoriya.

"Hey Izuku! This is a surprise. I didn't expect you to come over," Marinette said to him.

"Actually, all of us are here," Midoriya said as he showed her everyone from Class 1-A.

They all made sure to hide Zoe as a surprise. Marinette was not expecting Midoriya to show up, let alone everyone.

"Can we come in?" Midoriya asked her, "There's someone that wants to visit. She's actually came all the way here to see you."

Marinette's eyes widened and tilted her head in confusion. Midoriya looked back at his classmates and nodded at them. They spread out to show Marinette Zoe looking a little nervous to be here. Marinette's eyes widened in shock, and she stood there speechless. For a moment, it took her some time to realize that she was actually there. She was in their Japan after all.

Marinette walked towards her as everyone spread out to let her see her teammate.

"Zoe...?" Marinette said to her as tears formed under her eyes.

"Yeah. It's me," Zoe said back with a smile.

Marinette couldn't hold it back any longer and laughed as she hugged Zoe tightly. The moment she hugged Zoe, she felt tears come up and hugged Marinette back. Midoriya felt so happy to finally have their friend here. Marinette held onto her for a long minute, feeling so emotional seeing someone from Paris. Once she let go, Marinette tried to wipe away her tears to get a good look at her.

"Zoe! I-I can't believe it! You're here!" Marinette cried out, "H-How? I-I--"

"We can give everyone the details later. I just want to see everyone!" Zoe exclaimed, "Is Chloe here?"

Marinette smiled widely and nodded, knowing full well that Zoe was staying for a while. She hugged her again, so happy to see her here. Marinette grabbed her hand and guided her inside. Marinette tried not to give anything away as she tried to stop crying. Zoe held onto her hand tightly, missing that feeling of Marinette being around her. She really hoped that Chloe was happy to see her.

Marinette went inside, but Midoriya and Class 1-A made sure to hide her. Class 1-M was just hanging out all together after having dinner. Some were watching TV, a couple were playing a game at the dining room table and a couple were doing their homework. They all looked up to see Marinette standing there with Class 1-A.

"Marinette, I didn't know that Class 1-A was coming over," Adrien said to her.

Everyone looked up to see their friends coming over. They were happy to see them, but they could all tell that something was up with them with the way they were standing.

"Is something wrong?" Kagami asked them.

"N-No," Marinette said as she made sure she wasn't giving anything away, "Th-They just brought someone over that we haven't seen in a long time is all."

Class 1-A spread out to reveal Zoe to everyone in Class 1-M. Everyone gasped, shocked to see a good friend of theirs here in Japan.

"Zoe!" Class 1-M cried out in unison.

They all ran at her and pulled her into a group hug. Zoe clearly wasn't expecting this, but liked it as everyone kept hugging her. Even Kagami who wasn't really a hugger couldn't help but join in.

"H-How are you here?!" Adrien cried out with a smile.

"This is crazy! You do realize where you are, right?!" Kim cried out.

"I missed you so much Zoe!" Sabrina cried out as she gave her a hug.

"Thank you so much everyone!" Zoe said to them as she felt a blush form across her face.

Zoe looked around and didn't see Chloe anywhere. She was a little disappointed, but wondered where she could be.

"Hey, where's Chloe?" Zoe asked them, "She's here, right?"

Marinette couldn't help but smile, excited to get Chloe down here.

"She's doing her homework in her room. Something about it being too noisy in the common room," Max explained to her.

Marinette pulled out her phone and texted her to get down here and that there was a surprise for her downstairs. They all settled down and talked to Zoe for a while. She explained to them what had happened, and Marinette was surprised to hear how she got here.

"Wait, Alya got you through the portal?" Marinette asked her.

"Yeah! It was too small for everyone to fit, so I decided to go and check on you," Zoe told them, "Alya wanted to go, but she knew that she had to stay to look after Paris for you and Cat Noir. She misses you a lot, Marinette."

Marinette felt a little disappointed for a moment that Alya didn't come over. She was really happy to see Zoe, but she was surprised that Alya decided to stay in Paris. In a way, she was proud of her for looking after Paris while they were here in Japan.

"Alya sounds like she's doing pretty good. I-I'm... I'm proud of her," Marinette said, clearly a little upset that she wasn't here.

Soon enough, Chloe came down in her pajamas with her phone in her hand.

"Marinette! I've got your text," Chloe said to her as she ran out of the elevator, "What's the surprise-- Katsuki! Y-You're here!"

Chloe stopped her tracks when she realized she was wearing pajamas. She caught his attention, and he felt his cheeks turn red once he spotted her with loose pajamas and her hair down. He tried to shake it off, especially with so many people in the room. Everyone noticed already, and Kaminari gave him a knowing look.

"Ka-Katsuki! W-Why are you here?!" Chloe cried out, feeling a little embarrassed and needed to cover up, "M-Marinette! Is this your surprise because it's not funny!"

Marinette couldn't help but laugh at Chloe. Chloe's face turned bright red, and Bakugo tried to be respectful and look away.

"Chloe, calm down," Marinette said to her, "That wasn't the surprise. There's someone that came here to see you."

Zoe got up from the couch, and she looked a little nervous. Chloe's eyes widened in shock and completely speechless to see her half sister here in Japan. Chloe walked up to her, and Zoe didn't know if she was happy to see her or not. Zoe got a little nervous and felt herself shrink a little.

"Ch-Chloe... I-I... I wanted to tell you that I was here, but things happened and I felt like I had to wait until things settled down. I'm sorry that I never showed up until now," Zoe explained to her, feeling a little emotional.

Chloe didn't say anything and soon hid her face, and Zoe thought she was trying to stay away from her. Zoe felt a little upset and disappointed, but then she felt Chloe pull her into an embrace. Zoe didn't expect that, and all she could do was let Chloe hug her.

"Chloe...?" Zoe said to her, feeling a little emotional.

"I missed you so much..." Chloe said to her as she hugged her tighter.

Zoe felt tears fall down her face as she kept hugging her. Chloe too felt tears coming and didn't hold them back. Zoe hugged her back, which just made Chloe hug her tighter.

"I thought you wouldn't want to see me ever again," Zoe said through tears.

"Are you kidding? I've been wanting to see you ever since I got here," Chloe said to her, "We are sisters after all."

Zoe felt something come over her when she said that to her. Zoe and Chloe separated from each other, and Zoe was shocked to hear her say it. She felt like she didn't actually say it, but she thought it.

"What did you say, Chloe?" Zoe asked her, speechless as tears ran down her face.

"We're sisters. I can't believe I'm even saying this, but I really missed you," Chloe said to her.

Zoe felt more tears come up, and she hugged her back.

"I've been wanting to hear that ever since you left Paris," Zoe said to her with a smile, "I just can't believe that I'm actually here."

Everyone was so happy to see Chloe and Zoe finally together again. Midoriya smiled and felt tears forming under his eyes seeing Zoe and Chloe finally reunited.

Adrien smiled, so happy to see Zoe here. He looked down at his ring, feeling a sense of urgency. Something was wrong with his ring, and he hoped that Zoe brought something that might help him. Whatever she might have, he hoped it would get rid of this poison.

He could feel it spreading.

Another amazing chapter!

I love this chapter! This was a fun one to write to see how things would turn out. I really like Chloe and Zoe as friends, and I definitely think this has come a long way. I love Chloe in Season 2, and I'm very satisfied with how things turned out. Zoe has been fun to write in the other story, and I just had to bring her back somehow. Again, I just love them and the series could've done something interesting with them two. Midoriya's headaches are happening for a reason, you'll just have to wait and see what happens next.

Adrien's not doing so good...

More to come soon!
