I have a reference in here, but it won't be counted for a reward. I used the reference as a joke and I think you all will thank me later.

Also, I edited this chapter, but not very much since I sort of just wanted to finish this chapter up.

"Girl are you batshit crazy!?" Bakugou scolds you with a deathtrap on the collar of your shirt. He's not wrong about one thing, you embrace just how crazy you are.

"That's honestly what I'm beginning to wonder..." Shinsou crossed his arms agreeing with Bakugou without a restraint.

You held Bakugou's hands, unable to look at either of y pi ur friends in the face. "You don't have to come along..." As much as you'd prefer that your friends came along for the ride, "I was only offering since you both have some beef with Zack..."

"(Y/n) I don't really have anything against Zack," Shinsou regrets to admit knowing just how much baggage the two of you had with the killer. "Yes, that guy nearly killed us when we were younger and he murdered your mom in front of us but I put everything in the past. There's no reason to look back on it... It happened, and he's got what came to him."

"Couldn't have said that any better," Bakugou praised the boy of lavender, letting your shirt go.

"Look guys..." You let out an overbearing sigh. Everyone was against your best interest. "I wanna tie some loose ends here."

"Doesn't mean you go batshit crazy in the meantime!" Bakugou retaliates.

Shinsou held out his arm, creating that long desired separation you needed from Bakugou. "What loose ends (Y/n)? Why do you need to see Zack so soon?"

Thank God someone wants to listen... "There's ALOT that I don't know about my mom and Zack knew a strange amount about her. Like how did he know about her having a child when she refused to let the press take photos and interviews about her? The world wasn't even aware that All Might and my mom were married to begin with-"

"Zack was more than likely her stalker (Y/n)," Shinsou frowned.

"I don't think so!" You stomped your foot. "I want to know how in the hell he 'marked' me as a child too. I was marked before I was even conscious of it. Now why mark me when he could've just killed me then and there?" At this point, Shinsou and Bakugou were just gonna let you get your case out cause any comments will just keep you going that much longer. You did have a valid point to say the least, not a good point, but a point to remember.

"Now Bakugou, you remember how Zack was dead set on killing me in the cemetery months ago right?" The blonde nods reluctantly. "Well... I remember before my memory went South and I joined the League of Villains that Zack planned to make me into his successor of some sort. He even gloat about me to the League to the point that even they knew everything about me. Zack actually never wanted to kill me... And now... When Shoto brought up that Endeavor used to be partners with my mom, and next to nobody knew about that brief partnership either, it makes me wonder if Zack used to be my mom's sidekick or something and they had a falling out. It may just explain why Zack has this weird soft spot for me as well as why he hate my mom so much to the point he killed her... I just want to learn more about my mom but everything else keeps on attacking my mind like crazy..." Nothing will settle... Nothing will go away. You need answers, you need that connection with your late mother again. You're not the same girl your were almost seven months ago.

"I say you go on ahead (Y/n)," your father agreed with you from the get go.

"Fucking hell!!!" Bakugou spun around just now realizing that Aizawa was present the whole time. "Your daughter is crazy, you know that right?"

"I don't think she's crazy at all," Aizawa shrugged, only to earn hellish glances from his daughter's boyfriend and apprentice. "Okay fine, she's crazy from time to time but right now isn't one of those times," alright, Aizawa's usual downer moment was more than expected. Anyways, he took a place to your side and gave you a slight ruffle of your hair. Oh how much you miss Aizawa doing that to you, he hasn't done that in forever. "Although you can live without knowing who exactly Zack and your mother really were, if it makes you happy and will get you to quit being mindless of your surroundings then I say this is actually a great idea on your part."

"At least someone's on my side," you hugged Aizawa loosely.

"Now go and be back before dark, UA now has a curfew whenever students aren't in their dormitory."

"I don't think I'll be in prison for eight hours but I won't be late!" It was noon, and the curfew is 8pm. As if you'd spend nearly eight hours visiting a convict!

"Not what I meant but go," Aizawa ushered you to leave. "Now boys you aren't required to go with her but I recommend at least one of you do," Shinsou and Bakugou gave each other that mutual glance that just screamed how much they both disliked the idea to tag along. However, it was your happiness on the line. Bakugou isn't risking that, not after everything you both had gone through already.

"Let's go..." Bakugou stomped ahead of you.

You ran ahead to catch up and took Bakugou's hand. While he dragged you forward, you looked back. "Shinsou?"

"I'm coming..." He trudged along.

"I'm not forcing you to come."

"I'm already here aren't I?" Shinsou pulled off a grin. Turns out he planned to come along since minute one.

Bakugou was brewing a storm. He had something on the mind and you knew it, he was doing baring his teeth like a dog just like he normally does. "What's wrong Bakugou?"

"I already can't stand Purple Bastard as it is and now we're seeing Bandaged Bastard too..."

"You like calling people bastards don't you?" Half n' Half Bastard, Purple Bastard, Tape Bastard and you could've sworn he's called Mineta a Perverted Bastard too. This nickname of his was virtually universal.

Bakugou chuckled, "only the people I hate more than Deku."

"And what did Half n' Half Bastard do to deserve his nickname?" Seriously, Todoroki has done nothing wrong. In fact, he's done more good than bad.

"He's my biggest rival besides Deku plus he bashed you in front of me in the festival."

"O-okay then," and here you thought Todoroki and yourself were cool...

The rest of the trip over to the city prison, one of the largest more secure prisons in all of japan, involved Bakugou slamming and going into detail of what he wants to do to Zack when you all get there. Apparently he wants to bash his ugly face in, rip him in half, then blast him to the moon and back and make sure he burns up within re-entry of the atmosphere. Shinsou and yourself found his descriptive angered antics highly amusing and imagined each description as if you both were watching an old cartoon where taking on pain from random objects that would ultimately kill you in real life was rich humor.

When you three came upon the glass entrance of the prison, all jokes were unfortunately slashed across the chest as the heavily built prison guard at the entrance wasn't all that inviting, in fact, she could kill at first glance with those lifeless shark eyes.

"What's a bunch of minors doing here?" She stood like a blockade before a towering metal detector. "I cannot let any of you in without an adult."

"Up yours bitch-" Bakugou began his rant to be cut short by your hand clasped over his mouth.

You smiled ear to ear, Bakugou probably ruined your chances of getting in. "Does the daughter of two-technically three pro heroes let me bend the rules this once? Trust me, this is a one time thing."

"I just got a call from a Pro claiming exactly what you just said..." The feminine guard rolled her eyes and grabbed at the radio on her shoulder. "So I know you aren't lying... I'll need an ID and who exactly you three visiting?"

"He had multiple names..." You slumped.

"Give me one," she nearly growled.

"Bandaged Killer?"

"Step through the metal detector and you'll be given electromagnetic braces before being escorted to Cell B6."

"Thank you!" You emptied your pockets and got through the detector, as did Bakugou and Shinsou whereas another prison guard, a very beefy male with silver hair, handed the three of you mechanical bracelets that had one red light on them. "What are these?" You held up the bracelet by one end to let it dangle.

"Anybody with quirks must wear these bracelets as a precaution to us. They negate all quirks and we can't risk any prisoners getting out-"

"Is that how this prison's first breakout happened ten years ago?" Shinsou put his brace on without a fight.

"You just took the words out of my mouth," the guard applaud Shinsou and proceeded to gesture Bakugou his own bracelet. Only for them both to death glare one another.

"Bakugou..." You signed. "Just put on the damned bracelet."

"I FUCKING PUT A CRIMINAL IN HERE WHY IN THE HELL WOULD I BREAK THAT BASTARD OUT OF HERE!!!"

"Can you ever be calm? Everything has to be ten times more difficult when you're around," you crossed your arms.

Shinsou nudged you in the side, "just go on ahead of him."

"I'm not leaving Bakugou."

"If we go ahead he'll man up... Trust me."

"And how do you know this?"

"Jealousy," Shinsou shrugged. "Plus he still  hates me from your jealousy stunt in the Sports Festival."

"Well you could've said no to the kiss," you tut. "Okay let's go then," putting your faith on Shinsou, you stepped into a hallway that led to a cell bloc. "Bye Bakugou!"

"Fuck..." Bakugou dragged a hand down his face. "Hand me the damn bracelet!" He snatched the mechanical brace from the guard and put it on with haste. A hearty glare to the male guard to follow. "Well... Take us to Bandaged Bastard!"

"She's your girlfriend ain't she?" He smirked.

"Yes?" Bakugou slumped.

"I can tell."

"Fuck off..." The Guard only chuckled and escorted you all to another level of the prison. A lower level. Apparently, once you're a prisoner and you're stationed to be in the lower level, that meant you're maximum security. There's two ways to get maximum security: How dangerous your quirk is, and what you did to end up in prison. Zack, well he was a serial killer for ten years and his quirk can mentally and physically manipulate any one person he touches.

The basement sounded like a fitting place for Zack afterall.

Besides the maniacle sounds of 'special' prisoners, each cell down here had no bars to make up the cell. Instead the face of the cells all were made of two inch thick plexiglass with small holes lining the tops and bottoms. Each cell also had a mechanically locked door and a small one way side door as a way to pass items between the people from the outside to the in. That only meant these convicts don't leave their cells for anything, when was the last time they've seen daylight? Do they even remember what the sun looks like.

The Guard came to a halt before one unusually dark cell while most of the others were well lit. You could just barely see a man clad in white at the very back of the cell, however he was so very still and faced the wall while sitting up within his bed. Was this Zack?

"Today's your lucky day Zack," the Guard spoke up, and the entire floor of prisoners went silent. "You have visitors and they're an entertaining bunch."

"The only person I'm remotely interested in seeing is Tomura," the cell lights flickered on to the turn of Zack's head. While you could just barely recognize him without his body adorn in bandages, his amber orbs honed in on your form. "Well look at that," the man stood up and bolted at the cage. His scarred face was pressed up to the glass, "it's the fuckers who put me in here."

"And you're an ugly fuck without your bandages," Bakugou chuckled.

"Shut the fuck up!!!" Zack snapped.

"Why don't you!?" Bakugou pressed his head to the glass as if he were butting head with the older male.

"We didn't came here to fight!" You shove Bakugou.

"If you came to make fun of my rats ass of a face then goodbye!" Zack stomped to the back of his cell.

"Your face is nothing compared to two other guys I've met Zack..." The ravenette froze in place and spun around. His skin was dark, a mess of burnt skin and tissue. "I came here to ask you a few questions and I don't expect an answer but I'd appreciate if you did."

"First I want you to answer me a question Lil Missy," Zack stood before you with this wicked sneer.

"If you'll answer what I have to ask then shoot..."

"How the fuck did you get rid of my mark on you? The only way to trash any of my marks is if I remove It myself or if you die!" Zack wasn't the happiest to say the least. His was voice was echoing like thunder, seething in anger!

"I blew up my backside... Bakugou blew up my backside," you hadn't the words to properly describe what exactly happened.

"Basically, you skinned yourself," Zack cracked up. "You're so fuckin' desperate you skinned yourself!!!"

Bakugou jumped in, his hand held out to his sides In a clenching motion but only sizzling noises leaked from them. The anti-quirk braces were doing their job and Bakugou didn't like it. Either way, he shook out his head of thoughts and refocused. "We wouldn't have done it if you hadn't marked her in the first damn place!" He pressed his forehead to the glass again. "Why did you mark her bastard!?"

"I'm only answering questions from your pretty little girlfriend you loud ass pomeranian!" To make matters worse, Bakugou began to snarl and bare his teeth like a dog. "Or am I wrong?" Zack couldn't stop grimacing.

"Wrong about what?" Shinsou cocked a brow.

"That these two still aren't dating. Not like that's a bad thing, romance makes me barf," Zack knew all the right things to say, each and every word fueled Bakugou's hatred even further than before even when that last comment meant nothing to you in particular. "Now who are you Purple Rick Sanchez?" Oh great, more insults.

You stepped forward, "He's Shinsou. I saved him from you the day you killed my mom," Zack just cocked a brow. You groaned, snatching Shinsou's wrist."Hug my waist," you hissed.

"Why?" Shinsou's orbs of lavender lit up like a deer in headlights. "Bakugou's right there, I'm not pulling another stunt."

"I came here for answers!" Your voice rose. "Now hug my waist so we can jog his memory-Sorry Bakugou," some buttons had to be pushed, and Shinsou gathered enough courage to embrace you waist.

From there, Zack shook his head in understanding. "That boy you escaped with that day..."

"Now answer my questions please!"

"Desperate much?" Zack smirked.

You frowned, sharing a glance with Bakugou. "Well you were," the blonde agreed.

You ignore him. "How and when did you 'mark' or 'anchor' me Zack? I was only seven then, so how did you mark me if you were supposedly in prison since I was three?" Zack's differently sized eyes grew to the same size like you had exposed him. You took it as that, when to Zack it was guilt. "Zack answer me... clearly that reaction means you know something."

"Marking you was what got me in prison in the first God damned place..." Zack spun around and punched the concrete wall. "My life was already shit before you and the second it was starting to look up I accidentally marked you and the damned Bubble Fairy of a mom you had threw me into prison for it!!!"

You punched the cell glass. "How do you 'accidentally' mark a three year old baby?!"

"You have no fucking clue do you?" Zack's usual grimace was back, and it was haunting. "The Bubble Hero, or should I say Rose, that was the name she made me call her anyways... She took me in when I was a teen and she was pregnant with you. Rose knew I was in the League of Villains but wanted to somehow 'turn me around' and all this other crap!" He spits across his cell. "I really don't understand that bitch... She knew I was killing people, she knew I wanted nothing to do with the heroes and yet she didn't turn me in until I touched you... Get a load of that, your mother was sheltering a villain... Me," somehow, Zack understood you needed a moment cause you were rigid stiff just processing everything.

"What else?" You sighed, "I know there's more."

"Not much," Zack admits. "You were born and Rose talked about you and All Might all the damn time and... And you kept my interest even though Rose refused to let me hold you at all," was it wrong to say you knew where this story was going? His curiosity got the best of him and he held you. Mom misinterpreted his curiosity for bloodlust and turned him in?

"A few years went by and the only time I ever saw you in person was in the arms of your meathead dad. By then, All for One considered me a son even though I was living two lives and gave me the quirk I have today when I was born quirkless. I talked about you around him, all I wanted was to hold you once. Rose trusted me enough to finally let me hold you, it was the first time I didn't want to kill someone cause... You were the first person who didn't look terrified to see me cause I can read eyes easily," by this part of the story, Zack had stopped pacing about his cell and took a seat on the steel toilet. "I didn't understand that my new quirk marks the last person I've touched with my bare skin and I guess skin was showing. There was a mark on your back, All Might was forgiving, Rose wasn't, next thing I knew I was thrown in prison. Dumbass bitch... She turned me in for being curious," well... that answered everything. How Zack knew so much about your mom, how the League knew so much about you in particular, and how you got anchored before you could even remember.

"Sob story wah wah wah!!!" Bakugou mocked your villain without a thought. "I still hate your ass!"

"And I hate you too," Zack rolled his eyes.

"But thank you to say the least," you smiled before your lifelong villain and he looked... Astonished. "I came here to learn more about my mom because well... You bragging to the League about me made them kidnap and steal my quirk. That quirk was my mom's and now it's gone. You answered all of my questions, so we'll get out of your hair-"

"As much as I hated Rose, she tried her absolute hardest to give me a better life. She was the perfect mom and I took that away from you," Zack, feeling guilt? Is this a parallel universe?

"You're forgiven," your smile never faltered.

"(Y/n)?" Bakugou wretched.

"If it wasn't for Zack trying to 'control' my life with his anchor, we probably wouldn't be dating, Aizawa wouldn't be my dad, I wouldn't be the strong hero I am today. Zack made my life better. Now, can you deny any of that?" You're done looking on the downside of everything. Why look down when if you look up a who world of possibility is smiling at you right in the face!

"I can't," Bakugou couldn't look at you right in the face. "Don't give him all the credit though, it was ME who got him to stop fucking up your life and it was ME who's kept with you throughout all this shit!"

"And I never gave him all the credit," you took one of Bakugou's hands and cradled it within your own. "I'm happy, so let's go to our new home."

"Let's leave this shithole!" Bakugou held your hand and strolled out in confidence.

-----

Everyone from your class were standing before the inner entrance of the Class Dormitory and whistled in approval to you both holding hands. "And where did you lovebirds run off to today?" Sero sang.

"Nowhere romantic that's for sure," you giggled. "Prison changes people!" Now you're slumped forward with a hateful scowl. "Imma kill each and every one of you here if you dont move."

"Yeah move it EXTRAS!" Bakugou shoved Sero in the face and dragged you what was assumed to be his dorm room. Upon opening the door, his room was barren spare for the supplied bed and a desk and three suitcases of clothes and belongings. For some odd reason, Bakugou assumed Kirishima would've unpacked his things but of course that wasn't the reality and you helped him to unpack and decorate. It took a while and by the time it was done and dinner was eaten Bakugou was pooped and wanted to hit the sack.

"Well goodnight Baku-Babe," you sang with a hand on the doorknob.

"Baku-Babe? Quit coming up with fucked up nicknames like Shitty Hair!" Bakugou snatched you back.

"Coming from the guy who has no creativity when it comes to nicknames... Explosion Bastard."

"Tusche," Bakugou grumbled and threw you onto the bed. You squeaked once he jumped too and landed to your side. "You're sleeping with me tonight..."

"Okay, I'm fine with that... Baku-babe," sleeping together in the same bed isnt a first, in fact you sleep the easiest with the person you love right next to you. You crawled atop Bakugou's frame and snuggled into his chest for a drowsy warm sleep to come.

Look forward to the next chapter. Almost all loose ends are tied up, which means you'll be getting a lot more Heartful Bakugou moments.
