"All of this... Is it just a job?... All of this is just a job?!"
"The deaths are just a bonus for a job well done... But as my stingy partner said, today we're here for someone, for our old friend Uzumaki Naruto..."
"That's not true... Naruto would never be part of something like that! You're lying!"
"Oh, really? And why is that?"
"Because he's my friend! He's a friend to many people here! He's a good person who has saved many lives! Including mine! Right now, he's on his way to becoming a great hero. That's why I know what you're saying... isn't true!"
"Ha... ha! Hahahahahahaha!... Girl, I didn't know you were a comedian! That was funny! Don't you think so, Uzumaki?... Didn't you ever tell them about yourself, Uzumaki?"
"That's enough..."
"Oh, come on! Don't be shy. Hey, girl... What makes you think this guy is a good person? If only you knew everything he's done in his life. Do you want me to tell you how he left his home and walked away from his family? Do you want me to tell you how many lives were ruined by this bastard?... Do you want to know just how filthy his soul is?... Someone like him has no redemption! He's already like us! What you would call... a monster!"
"Naruto... say something... Please, say something... Say something for once, damn it, Naruto! Tell me that isn't true!"
"..." Toshinori felt a hollow ache in his heart as he watched the young Yaoyorozu crying, tightly holding the young Uzumaki's hands and begging him to deny those accusations. But he only remained silent. It was painful to watch.
"As you can see, All Might, All For One isn't the only threat that needs to be dealt with," the Director of C.S.N. said, breaking the silence in the room as she gathered all the files together.
"What are you going to do with him?" Aizawa already had an idea of what the answer would be, and he hoped from the bottom of his heart that he was wrong.
"What should have been done a long time ago. Capture him." After saying that, she glanced at her watch and stood up. She already needed to leave, as her presence was required elsewhere.
"Alive or dead?" Nezu's question made the older woman stop at the door, but she simply ignored them and opened it. However, before she could leave, the door was slammed shut.
"..." Raising an eyebrow, Rue looked at All Might's figure blocking her way.
"That threat you're talking about is just a young man..." The disheveled blond grew into his heroic form and gave the unfazed old woman a serious look. She returned his gaze with the same intensity. "He saved my life and the lives of many others. You're making a serious mistake..."
"You don't understand, do you?" Rue simply crossed her arms and looked at the Symbol of Peace with annoyance. "That boy could be the greatest threat we might ever face. He doesn't respect the law or the system. People like him think they're above everyone else and that their decisions are the right ones. You have no idea how dangerous someone like him can be."
"Dangerous to the citizens... or to you?" A heavy atmosphere filled the room at that question, making the old woman clench her fists as a flash of anger appeared in her eyes.
"Let me remind you that all of this belongs to the government. With a single phone call, I can have this school and your friends in the 'Justice League' thrown out onto the streets. Remember these words well... Don't bite the hand that feeds you." With that threat, she grabbed the doorknob, never taking her eyes off Toshinori's darkened eyes. "Now move... Symbol of Peace."
"..." Swallowing his anger, All Might stepped away from the door, allowing the Director of C.S.N. to leave the office.
"You have 24 hours to resolve this... or I'll personally send a special forces squad to take care of this problem."
"..." Aizawa and Nezu watched helplessly as the gray-haired woman walked away and disappeared into the academy's hallways, leaving the office in tense silence. That silence was broken by a loud crash as a trembling All Might destroyed the office window and part of the wall with his right fist. Without saying a word, he left.
.....18:47:28...…
"I'm fine, Oka-san. Everything is fine... Yes, I know. I have to hang up. Goodbye... Yes, I love you too." Izuku hung up the phone and let out a long sigh. His mother was very worried about what had happened just a few hours ago.
"How did she take it?"
"She sounded like she was about to have a heart attack," Deku honestly answered Shiori. The two teenagers simply looked at each other in silence. Just a few hours ago, all the students and professional heroes had been brought to a hotel/hospital. It was a safe and heavily guarded place, all to prevent anything else from happening.
"My Oka-san sounded scared too." Both Todoroki and Midoriya were now in one of the hotel's many rooms. The half-red-haired girl had come to talk to the green-haired boy, arriving just as he was speaking with his mother. "How are your arms?" Trying to change the subject, she looked at the teenager's bandaged arms, and he only gave her a weak smile.
"They're healed... but they warned me that if I wasn't careful and kept pushing my Quirk, I would end up losing both my arms." He carefully squeezed the bandages covering his hands and arms.
"Do you think Naruto-kun is okay?"
Perhaps this was the first time Izuku had seen Todoroki show an expression other than indifference. She had a hurt yet hopeful look in her eyes, and there were even faint marks beneath them. Apparently, she couldn't even sleep properly.
"He's Sensei... He's always fine," he said confidently as he took the girl's small hand and gently squeezed it. It was the only thing he could do for her, to support and comfort her.
The two teenagers were pulled out of their sadness when the bedroom door opened. A serious-looking Momo entered, carrying a newspaper. "Hello..." she greeted her two classmates with a gentle smile before approaching them and sitting beside Shiori.
"Hello. How is everything outside?" Deku asked curiously as he released the hand of the motionless Todoroki.
"A disaster. Rumors are flying everywhere, and I found out that 68% of U.A.'s students have left the academy, while another 20% are still unsure what to do. There are even several students from Class A and Class B who are thinking about leaving U.A."
"I don't blame them. Both they and their parents are afraid that something bad might happen. My Oka-san also asked me to just come home," the freckled, green-haired boy said sadly.
"I heard that Kirishima and Sero were arguing fiercely with their respective parents. Ochako is very worried because her parents have been begging her to leave U.A... I can't blame them. The danger posed by villains hasn't been this high in recent years." With a sigh, the girl rubbed the back of her neck uncertainly. "And this isn't helping..." Opening the newspaper in her hands, she showed it to her two classmates. "Read this: 'Attack on U.A.: One of the students, Uzumaki Naruto, is suspected.'" Angrily, she squeezed the newspaper and threw it into the trash.
