~ Chapter 48 ~

Y/N and her classmates are sitting at a table after the meeting.

"If only I had taken her back then, even if I had to do it by force right now, Eri would be..." Izuku mumbled.

"You're not the only one here, Izuku. I would have taken her back, but she... I should have do it by force even if it kills me." Y/N sighed.

"I see, something like that happened..." Eijiro mumbled, looking at Y/N and Izuku. "I-It's so frustrating."

"Deku... Y/N..." Ochaco mumbled.

"I'm glad that I'm not the only one who's dealing with this shit." Y/N said, looking at Izuku and Mirio. "But what's even more worst is that Owen got some nerve to come here to give more pain than I ever could have imagine."

"Why are you so wild up with that man?" Eijiro asked.

"Because he's the one that left in that cage! He abandon me when I needed his help the most!"

"That's the guy...? Man, he sure looks manly, but his action is not." Eijiro said, frowning.

The elevator opens and everyone looks over their shoulder, seeing Aizawa walk out the elevator. He walks towards them with his hands in his pockets. 

"Is this a wake or something?" Aizawa asked, walking over to the table.

"Ribbit! Mr. Aizawa." Tsu said.

"Oh, call me Eraser Head outside of school," Aizawa stated, looking at his students. "But man, I was going to recommend that your work studies be suspended today..."

"What?" Y/N hissed, narrowing her eyes at him.

Eijiro stands up from his desk.

"Why, after all this time?"

"You heard them say the League of Villains could be involved, right?" Aizawa asked, looking from Y/N to the others. "That changes things."

Y/N noticed Izuku grit his teeth and look down. Aizawa let out a sigh.

"But you know, Midoriya, you still haven't regained my trust. Unfortunately, I'm sure that if I stop you now, you'll rush out again on your own." Aizawa crouches down in front of Izuku. "I'll watch you. If you're going to do this, do this properly, Midoriya."

Aizawa closes his fist and presses it against Izuku's chest.

"Got that, problem child?"

Izuku nods his head.

"Mirio, please lift your face," Amajiki said, looking at his best friend.

Hado places her hands on the table.

"Hey, I know about this. Hey, Togata, even if you regret something and get depressed, nothing will change. Did you know that?"

Mirio sniffles. "Yeah..."

"I'll say this to give you some peace of mind," Aizawa said, looking at his students. "The hand you missed grabbing onto did not necessarily mean despair to Eri."

He stands up, gesturing with two fingers.

"Face forward."

"Yes, sir!" Izuku exclaimed.

"Mr. Aizawa!" Ochaco said.

"I'm Eraser here."

"I will follow you for the rest of my life, Eraser Head!" Eijiro claimed.

"That's too long."

"Sorry!"

"Really? Eijiro, you're being too loud," Y/N giggled, a smile on her face.

"Midoriya, Y/N, next time, we'll definitely save her!" Mirio stated, looking at Izuku and Y/N.

"Yes, definitely!" Izuku replied.

"Of course," Y/N said, nodding her head.

"Y/N."

Y/N turns and growls to see Owen with Claire by his side.

"Can we talk? It won't be too long."

Y/N looks at Owen then to her friends and her teacher. She sighed and stood up from her seat.

"Fine. Make it quick."

She follows after Owen and Claire as they are outside. The sun setting in the distance as Owen and Claire stand a few feet away from Y/N.

"What did you want to talk about?"

"Like I said, again, I am so sorry for leaving you in cage."

"And for misunderstanding you." Claire added, looking at Owen.

"I'm also here to count on you on saving Blue. She means everything to me."

Y/N decided to ask.

"How long have you known that Velociraptor?"

"Very much. I was hired to research on Velociraptors. And to be honest, I didn't want to because I find them as wild animals. But after getting to know them, I realized that they're as if they're my children. Blue was the very special one out of all the others. She knows how to feel and when she sees me pretending to be sad, she came up to me and comfort me. It was... amazing."

Y/N's eyes soften that Blue must be very close to Owen.

"I can't... forgive you... yet."

Owen looks at her.

"But I will help you save Blue."

Y/N turns around.

"I can promise you that."

She then left.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A few days after discovering the shocking truth... While the pro heroes that teamed up with Sir Nighteye were pinpointing the location of the young head of the Shie Hassaikai, Chisaki, Eri, and Velociraptor Blue, Y/N, Izuku, Ochaco, Tsu, and Eijiro were on standby. And they were absolutely forbidden to say anything about their work studies.

Y/N climbs up the mountain using her claws as she dig them into the rock. Anjali was also there as she's learning how to climb as well as she's getting bigger than last time. Just above Y/N's head. Aizawa allowed Y/N to bring Anjali over if she's ever going to train her to be a fighter and a hunter. Anjali uses her sharp teeth to try and climb up the mountain without falling. Y/N made sure that Anjali corrects her hold. Cementoss had created the rock climbing mountain for this training.

"The movements of the work study group are especially sharp." Kyoka commented.

"They figured something out while outside!" Katsuki hissed, a glare on his features.

He points straight at Kirishima.

"Hey, what'd you figure out?! Tell me!"

"Sorry, I can't!" Eijiro yelled.        

He then points at Y/N who's already coming to the top with Anjali.

"Hey! Lizard Freak! What did you know?!"

"Nope, sorry! Can't reveal a secret!" Y/N shook her head as Anjali helped her up using her teeth to pull her collar.

Y/N wipes off the sweat from her head as Anjali looks at her in concern at what secret she's been hiding. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Y/N is sitting in the cafeteria with Eijiro, Katsuki, Denki, Hanta, and Mina, eating her favorite lunch rather slowly. She had a lot of mind going, mostly on Eri and Blue.

"Hey, Y/N? Everything okay? You're barely finishing up your food?" Mina asked in concern.

"Did something happen in your work study?" Hanta asked.

Y/N shot up in surprise while Eijiro tried to keep quiet and show his usual cheerful smile.

"I'm sorry. I'm fine. Just not as hungry as I usually am."

"You sure? You and Kirishima have been acting weird lately." Denki said in concern.

"Yeah, what do you know that I don't?" Katsuki glared.

"We're just uh... a little tired that's all." Eijiro nervously smiled.

Y/N nodded in affirmination. Luckily, their friends believed them, but not Katsuki who's still suspicious.

"Well, then at least eat your food. You can have some of my natto." Mina offered.

"Oh no, we can eat our own." Y/N declined with a shake of her head.

"Nope. I insist."

Mina poured out some of her natto in Y/N's plate as the rest did the same to both Eijiro's and Y/N's plate. Eijiro and Y/N couldn't help but tear up in happiness that they've got some good friends that will always be there for them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Y/N was heading towards her room as Anjali was in Y/N's room, surprisingly she could fit through the door. She was just about to open the door when she heard someone calling her.

"Y/N."

She turned to see Shoto walking towards her.

"Hey, Shoto. Shouldn't you be sleeping?"

"Actually, I wanted to ask you. Are you feeling alright lately?"

"Don't worry. Whatever happens to me, I'll be fine."

"Well... alright. But just remember if you ever feel hopeless, let me know."

Y/N softly smiled and hugged Shoto, causing him to blush before hugging her back.

"I'll remember that. Thanks. Goodnight, Shoto."

"Goodnight, Y/N..."

Y/N went inside her room and closed the door as Shoto looks at her one more time as he could see her smiling and Anjali wagging her tail in excitement to see her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Two Days Later, At Night

Y/N woke up from the noise of her phone ringing and quickly grabbed it. She silently looked back at Anjali who's still sleeping as her breathing was heard. She sighed in relief and looked at her phone and her eyes widen. She silently got out of her bed, tip toeing her way out of her room, and slowly closed the door and hurries to the common room. What she didn't know is that Anjali was awake the whole time and had her tail stop the door from closing to make her think she closed the door all the way.

Y/N made it in time to see Eijiro, Ochaco, Tsu, and Izuku. They all seemed tired as she is as they all look at each other.

"Did you all get the message?" Eijiro questioned.

"Yeah." Ochaco nodded.

"We did." Tsu added.

"The day we move." Izuku said, scowling at his phone.

Y/N nodded in determinations.

"Let's go save Eri and Blue."

"Yeah."

But before they could leave, something went behind Y/N and grabbed the back of her shirt. They turned around in fear that someone spotted them, but it was actually Anjali. Y/N gasped. She thought she was sleeping. Man, she must be very smart to fake it like Y/N does. Anjali gave Y/N a whine with pleading eyes, still having her mouth around her shirt.

"I'm sorry, Anjali. I have to go. You need to go back in the room. It's dangerous out there."

But Anjali gave her a stubborn look with a huff and let go of her shirt and sat down. She's not moving until she lets her come with. Izuku, Eijiro, Ochaco, and Tsu looked on with nervous look.

"Anjali, I'm ordering you to go to your room." Y/N said, narrowing her eye. "Okay? Let's go."

Anjali gave Y/N a lick to her cheek, making her yelp a little. She looked at her hybrid dinosaur again as she stood her ground. Y/N sighed, knowing she's going to regret this.

"Alright, alright. You're coming with."

Anjali shot up in excitement with her tail wagging very fast.

"But you've got to keep quiet...!"

Anjali nodded.

"Um... Y/N? Are you sure it's okay to bring Anjali with us?" Ochaco asked, looking uncertain about this.

"Well, she's stubborn. I think she's trained well enough to defend herself."

Anjali nodded again in confirmination.

"Okay. As long as she behaves." Izuku said.

"I wouldn't mind having her with us. She looks pretty tough if you ask me." Eijiro smiled.

Y/N turned to Anjali.

"Anjali, this is an important mission. We're going to save the little girl and the velociraptor. There will be strong enemies, and I'm counting on you that you'll be safe. You gonna be alright in this one?"

Anjali looked at Y/N for a moment before nodding, knowing the risk it will take.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Y/N, her classmates, and the rest of the heroes along with Anjali and Owen and Claire that were called for this operation were told go to Nighteye's office. She stands besides Eijiro and Anjali. Everyone were shocked to see a hybrid dinosaur in this land as they look fascinated or uncertained at the sight. Owen and Claire were beyond shocked at the most powerful hybrid that looked different from the Indominus Rex. Anjali is much more different from the previous one that tried to eat humans. Anjali just gave everyone a look of deadpan as if they never seen anything like this in their life while giving some heroes a lick to the face like Fat Gum, Ryuko, and Rock Lock but with much more slobber on him, much to Y/N's satisfaction. Nighteye surprisingly took things well, knowing about dinosaur incidents and is honored to meet one of the hybrid dinosaur. Y/N's eyes narrowed as she listens to what Nighteye has to say about Eri's and Blue's location. She's glad that the operation is in progress to the point where they can save Eri and Blue.

"Huh?! The Eri girl is in their stronghold?" Rock Lock questioned. "What about the dinosaur?"

"By stronghold, you mean..."

"The residence of the head of the Hassaikai..." Ryuko said, narrowing her eyes.

"What, so our investigations were for nothing?" Rock Lock remarked, narrowing his eyes at Nighteye.

"No, we were able to get new information, as well," Sir Nighteye informed, his hands on his desk.

"How were you able to confirm this?" Fat Gum questioned.

Sir Nighteye takes out a Gung-Ho! Glitter Squad 10 toy, placing it on his desk.

"A member of the Hassaikai went to a nearby department store the other day and bought playthings aimed at young girls."

"Huh?"

"What the heck...?"

"Maybe he just likes things like that!" Fat Gum assumed, throwing his arm out. "There are all types in this world, Nighteye! Anyway, why did you buy one, too?"

"No, he said something that no one who has that sort of hobby would say--" Nighteye explained what happened at the department store.

He said what the member had said, that Nighteye had used his Quirk on the member, and where the exact location of Eri is too.

Rock Lock steps forward, pointing at Nighteye.

"You ended up using Foresight anyway?!"

"I believe I said I would use it once we narrowed it down so that we could be sure." Nighteye explained. "I also found something that might interest you, Mr. Owen."

Owen looks at him as Nighteye brought out something from his pocket and brought out a scale of a familiar blue.

"That's..."

"Indeed. Blue is not too far and is next to Eri's prison. Somehow, that man had her scale for who knows why."

Fat Gum puts his hands on his hips.

"Anyway, this means it's been decided, right?"

"We know for sure when they'll be there thanks to our stakeouts." Centipeder informed.

Bubble Girl threw her arms out.

"We also worked with the police to get a warrant. All that's left..."

"...is to get in there!" Fat Gum finished, interrupting Bubble Girl.

"He took my line!"

"Deku." Ochaco whispered.

Izuku looks over, his eyes landing on Ochaco, Eijiro, Tsu, and Y/N. They give him confident looks. Y/N nods at Midoriya and he smiles, returning her nod. Izuku already knows the look in her eyes because he feels the same exact way she's feeling. Let's save Eri along with Blue.

Y/N watches as Mirio calls out to Izuku and he starts moving his arms around yelling, 'Let's do this! We're gonna do it!' She smiles, seeing the determined look on Mirio's face as the blonde as he keeps repeating the same sentence over and over. Anjali sweatdrops at how much energy he's been giving.

Mirio throws his fist up.

"Let's do this!"

Y/N continues to stand with Eijiro and Anjali as the Big Three and Izuku surround the three and Uraraka and Asui. They talk among themselves, smiles on their faces whilst the Big Three ask Y/N some questions about Anjali who's being petted by Hado. Y/N smiles and glances at Owen who gave her a smile with a nod.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

8:00 AM, in front of the police station

"After Nighteye used Foresight on the Hassaikai member, we discovered the existence of undocumented underground facilities at the head of the Hassaikai's residence." the man with black hair spoke. "We were able to confirm that the girl and the velociraptor we are trying to rescue are being held in one of the rooms there separately. Although we were unable to uncover the entire underground layout, the path the man took is the shortest route to our target and it's the best intel we could have for searching the Hassaikai's expansive stronghold."

Y/N, her classmates, Anjali who's in her armor ordered by Nighteye to put something on on her to protect her if she's going into the battle, Owen and Claire, and all the heroes are in front of the police station. There's a lot of police officers, there's a lot either having a riot shield or no shield at all. Y/N hasn't seen this many police officers in a single spot, but this operation in saving Eri and Blue is the biggest thing that Y/N has been a part of.

(This is how Anjali's armor look like. Pick any armor that might suit her.)

"However, even if we head there, if they use their Quirks freely on us, it would make the search difficult," the man continued, a stern look on his features.

He looks ahead at the heroes and mostly at Anjali. He nods his head and someone walks forward with a folder, taking a piece of paper out of the folder.

"So, we have made a list to the best of our knowledge of Quirks registered to Hassaikai members. Please memorize this list."

"It's nice to be able to just pull this out, huh?"

"We don't want to give them time to hide, so we want to identify and apprehend all the members as quickly as possible."

Eijiro and Y/N looks over, seeing Amajiki put on his hood.

"Things are moving fast now, huh?" Eijiro said.

"You're energetic for how early this is..." Amajiki said quietly.

Y/N pats Amajiki's head, causing him to jolt in surprise and look at her in embarrassment. She just simply smile at in reassurance that everything is going to be okay, even if it's scary. Amajiki surprisingly slowly calming down.

Ochaco sucked in through her teeth.

"I'm getting nervous."

"From detective work to cooperation with the police..." Tsu places her finger on her chin in thought. "There's so much I don't know."

Hado copied Tsu's move.

"Right? Isn't it mysterious?"

Ryuko walks over to them with a paper in hand.

"Yeah, schools don't really teach you much about things like this. I had a hard time when I first started."

"Yeah." Pro Hero agreed.

"I see." Y/N said, patting Anjali's chin who purred.

Eijiro looks around.

"All the pros are so calm. Is it 'caused they're used to this?!"

"Hey, I haven't seen Gran Torino all morning..." Izuku said, looking at Eijiro and Y/N. "I wonder where he is."

"Apparently, he cannot come anymore," Nighteye explained, his eyes landing on the three. 

"Huh?!"

"It looks like the League, which Tsukauchi is keeping an eye on, is on the move," the detective explained, looking at Izuku. "But well, we have enough people, too, so it should not impede us."

"I see..." Izuku voiced, sounding disappointed.

"Maybe we can catch the Hassaikai and the League of Villains all at once!" Eijiro said cheerly, smiling at Izuku and Y/N.

"Yeah!"

"He's right." Y/N agreed with a smile.

"Hey, kid."

She turned to see Owen walking over to her holding the gun with Claire by his side.

"I'll be by your side for now. Just to prove to you how sorry I am."

"Still going on that. Alright."

Anjali looks at Owen and Claire, sniffing them before turning away with a nod and went back to Y/N's side.

"You two must have a bonding relationship." Claire commented.

"She means everything to me." Y/N said.

"Heroes!" Detective called out, getting everyone's attention on him. "Things might get a little violent. If you see even a hint of suspicious behavior or resistance, please deal with it immediately!"

Fat Gum rumaged something out of his pocket to reveal a packet and showed it to Amajiki.

"Tamaki, eat this. It's swordfish."

"Why swordfish..." Amajiki trailed off before taking the package from Fat Gum. "Thanks, I'll be sure to eat it."

"We're up against gangsters who have survived until now," the detective continued, looking at the heroes and one dinosaur in front of him.

The police forces stand behind the detective.

"Don't let your guard down and carry out your respective tasks." Detective salutes the heroes, the police forces behind follow his actions and salutes too. "We will commence the operation at 8:30! All hands, move out!" 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

8:30 AM, Commence!!!

Y/N, her classmates, the pro heroes, Anjali, Owen and Claire, and the police force are standing in front of the Hassaikai's headquarters. Y/N stands on guard with her eyes glowing red, feeling her atomic breath burn in her hand, standing next to Ryuko and Anjali. Anjali gave a low growl, kicking off some dust from the ground beneath her. Owen loads some ammos in his big gun before clicking it while Claire is taking a deep breath, holding the small regular gun.

 "Once they've read the warrant, charge in!" Detective informed. "I'm counting on everyone to move swiftly."

Rock Lock narrows his eyes.

"He keeps saying the same thing over and over. It's like he doesn't trust us."

"You know that's not what he means," Fat Gum stated, looking at Rock Lock. "Stop being mean."

Rock Lock scoffs and Y/N rolls her eyes, still don't like that man and his attitude.

"In the first place, these yakuza guys are living in secretly in the shadows," Rock Lock said, looking at Fat Gum. "If they see all these heroes and police, they might just curl up on themselves."

Y/N's ears twitch and her eyes widen as Anjali gave a loud roar, scaring some of the police officers who heard it too.

"Someone's coming!"

As soon as the words leave her mouth, the front doors of the property are punched open by a huge and buff man that has a mask on his face. The detective hadn't even touched the button for the intercom and the yakuza are already the first ones to initiate the fight. A few of the police that were knocked away from the force were saved by Aizawa, Izuku, and Fat Gum.

"What do you want?" The giant mak asked, his voice deep. "Bringing all these people so early in the morning..."

"Hey, wait! Hang on a second!" Rock Lock yelled, narrowing his eyes at the giant. "Did they already notice us?"

"Forget about that, let's just all hold them back together!"

"I feel a little more awake now. Jeez..." The buff man said.

Y/N and Anjali growls at the sight of the muscles in the buff man's arm grow as he pulls it back.

Ryuko steps in front of the police, pulling her mask down.

"Step back!"

"What do you people want?!" The buff man yelled.

He thrusts his fist forward and Ryuko transforms, the dust kicking up as the wind pressure kicks up. Y/N stands behind Anjali as they both held their ground. Y/N looks up and smiles to see Ryuko in her dragon form once again. Anjali was in awe to see a dragon she had never seen.

"Anyway, we shouldn't split up our forces here." Ryuko said, holding the buff man's fist with one hand/claw. "Ryukyu agency will take care of him."

She slams buff man to the floor, looking over at the police force and heroes.

"The rest of you go now, while you have the chance!"

Fat Gum urges people to go in. "Okay! Everyone, get in! Quickly, quickly!" 

Y/N was about to help Ryuko when her internship stopped her.

"You go and help your friends. We'll take care of this."

"But I wanna help you. I have Anjali with me."

"Eri and Blue is much more important for you to save. Go! You have my permission!" Ryuko said.

Hado, Ochaco, and Tsu jumped in.

"Don't worry, Y/N! We'll handle this!" Ochaco said.

"Be careful out there, Y/N!"

"Stay safe, Y/N!"

Y/N nodded and urged Anjali to follow her as she did. Anjali knocked out some of the people from the property as they were sent flying.

"It's heroes and the police! We have a warrant to search your premises on suspicion of the manufacture and sale of illegal drugs!" Detective yelled, holding the paper warrant in front of him.

"A search warrant?"

"Who cares?!"

The yakuza members fight back and a few of the local heroes and police forces fight the yakuza in the courtyard. Y/N and Anjali continues to follow Fat Gum as Nighteye runs besides Fat Gum. She noticed Owen and Claire are running beside Nighteye. Y/N could also see Mirio and Izuku running together, knowing those two definitely want to save Eri. She's aware that Nighteye knows the route to Eri and Blue. Y/N almost forgot that she had a scent of Eri and hopefully find Blue's scent as well. 

"Use the shortest route to get to the target!" Fat Gum yelled.

Y/N smirks, running towards Izuku and Mirio, passing between the two boys and Anjali was coming behind the boys and bumped her head against them, pushing them forward. She looks over her shoulder at the two boys, the smirk on her lips widening.

"Let's go save Eri!"

"Yeah!" The two boys smile.
