Later that night, Shouto along Eijiro wait for Izuku, Momo, and the others.

Shouto: Are they coming?

Kirishima: They should be...

But to their surprise, Mikoto and some of his pals from Class 1-C arrived. He had a small smile while Sylvia, Kenji, and Souta followed close behind.

Mikoto: Hey Kirishima! Shouto!

Kirishima: Yukimura?! You're in this plan too?!

Mikoto: Yep! Sorry for the wait.

Shouto: I thought you'll be against this since you're more of a rule follower.

Mikoto:....Yeah. But when it comes to my friends being kidnapped. Sometimes you have what you think is right. Even if you have to break the rules.

Kirishima grins at that whole the others nodded.

Kirishima: So manly!

Sylvia: Exactly...So where are the others?

Mikoto: Yeah. Where is Izuku?

Souta: Did he backed out of the plan?

Mikoto: No...That doesn't sound like something he would do.

Kenji: How could you be so sure?

Mikoto: Trust me on this. This is Izuku were talking about.

On cue, Izuku and Momo arrived at the scene much to the groups' relief.

Deku: H-Hey Miichan. Everyone...

Mikoto: Hey Izuku.

Souta: I'm impressed. They actually didn't back out.

Sylvia: Of course they didn't, idiot.

Kenji: So...Are we still going with the plan...Yaoyorozu?

Kirishima: Yeah...Are you still up to being the receiver?

???: Wait!

Before Momo can speak, Tenya Iida appears from behind.

Deku: I-Iida?!

Momo: I didn't think he would follow us...

Souta:....

Iida was angry. Why? Because the group was about to repeat the same mistake he made at Hosu City. Which was something he hoped would never happen again.

Iida: Why are you all trying to make the same mistake I did? Especially you Yukimura!

Mikoto: Me?!

Iida: Weren't you the one who called me an idiot for acting out back then in Hosu City?!!! It's too much!

Kirishima: What are you talking about?!

Kirishima walked up to him but Shouto put an arm on his shoulder preventing him from moving any further as Iida continued.

Iida: Who will take responsibility for your actions?! Don't you understand?!

Deku: Iida-kun...It isn't like that...We don't think it's okay to break the
law-?!

*POW*

Despite Izuku knowing that breaking the rules is against the law, Tenya punches Izuku in the face.

Mikoto: IZUKU?! WHAT THE HELL, IIDA?!!!!!

Mikoto was about to punch Iida until someone grabbed him by his arm.

It was Sylvia.

Mikoto: Sylvia...What are you...?

She shook her head which made him drop the question.

Sylvia: No...Let him talk...

Mikoto:.....

Iida:........

Deku:....Iida....?

Iida: I'm the Class Representative! I'm worried about my classmates as well like you are!

He grabs Izuku by his shoulders.

Iida: Are you saying you don't care about how I feel....?

Iida was angry and frustrated that they are not taking his concerns, feelings and worry into consideration; So he says that he doesn’t want to see Izuku or any of them land up with severe injuries.

Deku:....

Shouto: Iida...

Iida:....?

Shouto: We don't expect to face them head on and win either...

Iida: Ah....

Shouto: We'll extricate him without fighting...

Kenji:....Then there's no point in crying over spilled milk. Even of the plan seems hopeless. It's worth a try.

Sylvia: Exactly. Even if all our plans are lying on the ten-car road wrecks. We must band together and save our friends. Because being a hero is what we must do, right? It's better than doing nothing but doing actually something.

Iida:.....

As Shoto tells Tenya that they will not engage the villains in combat while Eijiro states that their rescue will be covert. Momo states that she came along to accompany them all in order to prevent them from engaging in combat. Izuku tells Tenya that after failing to save Katsuki at the training camp, his gut feeling is telling him that he must save Bakugo.

Deku: After hearing that I could still reach...I couldn't just stand still...I can't help but think that I want to save him.

Shouto:.....Even after all he done to you?

Sylvia: Yeah...That jerk doesn't deserve your kindness...

Mikoto:.......

Deku: I know...but I still want to do it.

Iida:....

A hero is defined by his or her choices and actions, not by chance or circumstances that arise. A hero can be brave and willing to sacrifice his or her life, but think about it, we all have a hero in us. We can be someone who is unselfish and without want of reward, who is determined to help others from time to time. We just all need the right moment to when that happens.

That's why...Izuku and Mikoto will do whatever it takes to save their fallen friends.

Iida: I see we can't come to an agreement.

Mikoto: Yeah...Even if you try to stop us, we're still going. Yin and Haru needs us.

Kenji: And we're going to do whatever we can to get them back.

Tenya finally sees that they all are determined and resolute and he is now cheered up by the fact that they won’t engage in combat.

After calming down, Tenya decides to go with them.

Iida: I still think is a bad idea...

Souta: Well if you're going to shine about it, go home. We don't need another burden to carry.

Iida:.....

Sylvia smacked him upside the head.

Sylvia: Sorry about him. Sometimes he should think twice before opening that mouth.

Souta: *Sneers at her*

Sylvia: *Sneers back at him* Say something else and I will beat on your head like a bongo!

Souta:......

Mikoto: .....Anyway. It's a chance we're willing to take. It's crazy but genius.

Kirishima: Hell yeah! Glad we're all now on the same boat then.

Before they could go...Izuku then remembered something.

Deku: I...gotta make a phone call. Be right back.

Mikoto: O...Okay....

Deku takes off quicky leaving confused looks.

Mikoto:....Hey Iida.

Iida: Yes Yukimura-kun?

Mikoto: Next time you pull an act like that. I will freeze your balls off.

Iida: ?!

Mikoto: I get the fact you were under a lot of worry and stress. But that doesn't excuse your actions.

Iida:.....I'm sorry.

Mikoto: You better be when he gets back...

Iida: I will apologize. Don't worry...

Mikoto: Alright...

Kirishima:...Hey. Yukimura.

Mikoto looks at him with an raised eyebrow.

Mikoto: Yeah...?

Kirishima looked a little hesitant but continued on.

Kirishima:....I've been meaning to ask you something...I know...this may be a bad time to ask but...Was Bakugo really mean to you and Midoriya when you were kids...?

Sylvia/Kenji/Souta: ?!

Iida:....

Momo/Shouto:....

Mikoto:....Yeah...

Kirishima clutched his knuckles with an unreadable expression that the others couldn't read. Why...did he wanted to know so bad...?

Kirishima: Ya know ehat...Forget it. I'm really sorry for asking. I know it was a personal question. I just...

Mikoto waved his hands around to empathize.

Mikoto: No! No! No! It's okay Kirishima-kun... It's in the past now...

Kirishima:....But...Why did he do it? Why...?

Mikoto:....To be honest, I really don't know much myself. But I'm guessing he just didn't want help from Izuku and has a superiority complex going on...

Mikoto decided it was best to leave the quirkless part out of it. Because he knew it wasn't his place to tell that side of the story.

Mikoto: He Bullied Izuku when they were kids. Though they used to be childhood friends. I met them back in my second year of middle school. I somehow...ended becoming the knot between them...There were times where Bakugo and his goons tried to bully me as well...but I handled myself against them...Izuku on the other hand...not so much...

Iida: I see...

Momo: Poor Midoriya...

Sylvia: Tch...Bullies...

Souta: They're the worst.

Kenji: Indeed...

Kirishima: Yeah...

Mikoto raised an eyebrow at Kirishima at his answer. He sounded...hurt? Did he...have an experience with bullying?

It's Plausible. Yet Complicated. Maybe that's the reason why he wanted to ask.

Mikoto: Now that I told you...What do you think of Bakugo now?

Even if Class 1-A knew that Bakugo was a bully to Midoriya and Yukimura. They never really questioned their past. Because they felt like it was too personal to ask. So for Kirishima to come up with this out of the blue was a little concerning.

Kirishima: I...still want to be his friend. I'm disappointed in his actions to what he did to you and Midoriya. It was not very Plus Ultra of him. But...I'm willing to give him a chance...No matter how terrible he was in the past. Maybe...He could change. Become a better person...when...all this is over...I hope...

Mikoto: Kirishima...

Kirishima: Ah. Sorry dude. Didn't mean to glimpse on about it...

Mikoto: No. Don't worry about it Kirishima. Maybe you're right. If anyone could make that asshole a better person, it could be you. Kirishima, you're too good for this world. Never change.

Kirishima made a grin.

Kirishima: Of course, Yukimura. I will do my best!

Mikoto smiled. If Izuku couldn't do anything to change Katsuki's attitude. Maybe Kirishima can.

Sometime later, Izuku came back and Iida had apologized for punching him.

Deku: Sorry for the inconvenience guys...

Shouto: Who were you making a phone call too, Midoriya?

Deku: My Mom....

Mikoto: Oh. What did Auntie Inko say?

-Flashback-

In the hospital, Izuku phones his mother and informs him about his wounds. His mother sounded frantic and scared on the other line.

What she said next felt like bomb had dropped in his stomach.

Inko: Izuku...Is it okay if you stop attending U.A?

Deku quickly hangs up and ends the call.

-End Flashback-

Deku: Nothing....

Mikoto: Eh?

Deku: She didn't say nothing...

Everyone: ???

Mikoto: .....Nani?

Deku:........
