"16- 17- 18. Besides the one with the messed up legs, seems like everyone came out of it mostly unharmed." The police man was saying as Yukina glanced around for her brother. Feathers wasn't in sight either which brought up another question.

Yukina did manage to find her brother and jogged up to look him over. "Should figure you wouldn't had gotten hurt." She was saying to her twin brother. Shoto turned towards his sister, also making sure she was unharmed from the whole situation.

"The villains didn't even touch me." He was saying, a small smirk appeared as he noticed that his sister wasn't harmed as well. "It looks like the same happened with you. Wherever you were sent, suppose you handled it well."

Yukina laughed as she nodded to him. She had explained her side, how she was teleported with Tokoyami and Koda. Appearing in the storm zone, the weak three they fought, and them losing direction trying to get back to the front. Yukina had a horrible sense of direction, and for the most part just kind of wondered until she found the place she wanted to go. The Pros were the ones that ended up gathering the three and taking them to safety.

─── ❄️ ·🔥· 🪶 ───

"My brother is a prodigy when it came to being a Pro. Twenty-two and already the number three." Feathers was saying in the infirmary as she glanced over to All Might and Midoriya. "But here I am, a Quirk almost identical to his and I can't even relate to his level."

"Don't say that! Whatever you did with your feathers got the creature off Mister Aizawa!" Midoriya was saying looking over to her from the bed. Feathers scoffed in frustration.

"Yet I was the one who got caught in a dangerous situation. If I was as fast as my brother. . ." Feathers leaned back in the rolling chair she was in. She looked out the window in a distant thought. "I want to help him, but he's always in a rush. I worry what he gets himself into."

"You did quite a lot before I got there, I hear." All Might was saying from his bed, wrapped in bandages. Feathers glanced over at the Number One. He was still in his weaker form and Sakura couldn't help but feel sad for the hero.

"There's still a lot for me to learn, sir." She said, as she glanced towards the door. Recovery Girl finally returned into the room and hopped up onto her chair. She spun it towards the two in the bed as she started to speak.

"This time with what the circumstances are, I won't scold you." She mentioned, breaking the silence. All Might turned his attention to Recovery Girl.

"I won't lie I was being reckless going past my limit. . . I wish I had more than an hour in me." He grumbled trying to sit up. However, Sakura sent her feathers to push him back down.

"Lay back down All Might, you need to relax." She was saying crossing her arms. She honestly was only here to talk to Midoriya, but All Might thought it was better for him to explain himself. All Might would have to go into detail with the young student later, when he was more recovered. Before he could get another word in the door swung open again, the detective that had come to the campus was strolling through.

"Long time no see, All Might!" He was saying, slightly freaking out Midoriya. He quickly looked between the two, almost shocked that the detective knew of All Might's true form.

"Tsukauchi! Its been a while! I see you showed up with the rest of them." All Might was saying as he sat up again, this time Sakura didn't push him back down with her feathers. Midoriya was the next to speak up.

"Woah, All Might. He knows your true look?"

"Yeah, Tsukauchi is a police officer in which I'm best friends with!" Tsukauchi seemed to laugh at this, almost amused with the introduction All Might did for him. The Detective glanced over at Feathers who just looked away, still spacing out in certain points.

"Sorry for coming to you so soon while you are recovering, however I need to get some testimonies about the villain attack." He was saying, looking back towards his injured friend. Feathers glanced back at this, as this conversation would probably have to involve her input too.

"Before that, how's all the other students? What about Aiza- I mean Eraserhead. Number Thirteen?"

"Apart from the boy," He motioned to Midoriya, "all of the students are fine for the most part. And the two teachers don't have any life-threatening injuries. However, if you three hadn't fought so valiantly, I'm sure the students would be in far more danger."

"Is that so. . . however you got one thing wrong." All Might was saying, looking to Midoriya then to Feathers who was behind the detective. "The students also fought bravely and gave it their all! They experienced a true battle and survived. They showed those villains for the idiots they are, the students from Class 1-A will make fine heroes."

Feathers took this information in, as All Might seemed to whole heartedly believed in what he was saying. Feathers still couldn't make eye contact fully, still feeling guilty. She stood from her seat and glanced over at Midoriya.

"I have to call my brother to let him know I'm okay and everything. Mister Tsukauchi, if I could answer whatever questions, you have later it would be a bit better." Feathers had said, snagging her phone out of her pocket. "I'm sure you want to talk later too All Might, however Hawks would probably kill me if I didn't call him as soon as possible.

"Of course, young Feathers." All Might had said, still watching the hero-in-training. Midoriya wondered to himself on how Feathers was feeling at this moment. Was she blaming herself for him getting injured? His face flushed slightly, as Sakura excused herself out in the hallway.

The phone rang and rang. There was no answer, and Feathers just glanced at her phone in wonder. She frowned, as she walked down the hall, eyeing the phone, hoping it was just a quick miss call. Perhaps Keigo was just busy, and that he'd get back to her later. She just really needs some time to think today. However, with school being closed tomorrow, she'd have a day off. She kept walking down the hall, towards the exit.

"Hey Birdbrain." An annoyed voice from behind called to her as she got to the front of the school. Sakura glanced over her shoulder. Bakugo was walking up to her, one of his fists clenched. "Don't think I owe you for grabbing me off that mist bastard."

Sakura blinked at him and rolled her eyes. "If I expected payment for every life I was going to save, I wouldn't be a hero, Idiot." She had said to the spiky haired blond. That honestly just pissed him off more, having saw that the feathered hero-in-training was faster than him. A small spark had come from his hands.

"And don't think you're better than me because you're faster." He had continued, Sakura just eyed her hot-headed classmate. Was this his way of thanking me? Sakura just turned fully, facing Bakugo with a smile.

"Sure." Sakura said, still standing there as Bakugo just growled.

"What's with that smirk on your face?! Are you doubting me you bastard?" Sakura shrugged after Bakugo yelled towards her again.

"I didn't say that Poprock." Sakura was saying as she spun back around. "I won't back down though. Don't go falling behind, if you don't keep up, you'll miss me. I am pretty fast after all."

After this Sakura left without another word. Heading back to the home that had housed her. She didn't really interact with her house mates. She just stayed in her room for the night. She had studied, keeping her phone close and a constant look towards it. In the end she didn't get a call back from her brother that night.

─── ❄️ ·🔥· 🪶 ───

The next day, with it being a day off from classes, Sakura decided to see if anyone wanted to go out. She understood with the whole nerves because of the villains she may not get a lot of people to come out. However, she hoped to get a few people to go to the mall with her. Still not getting a phone call from Keigo, and no answer when she tried herself, she just thought best to get things off her mind.

She had sent the invite to Izuku, Uraraka, Tenya, and Denki through text. Telling them to get anyone else they wanted to invite. She had walked over to Yukina's room, knocking on the door, her goal to convince the Icy-hot twins.

Yukina opened her door, glancing at Sakura with confusion.

"Hey, since we have the day off, come to the mall with me. Some of our classmate's will be there."

"No-" Yukina said as she started closing her door. Before she could fully close it though, Sakura stopped her.

"I understand you could care less of hanging out with our classmates but if we are gunna be heroes together, we need to expand on our relationships. -And before you go about and say like 'it doesn't matter if we get along blah blah' stop being a downer and come on." Sakura said, grabbing her house-mates arm before dragging her out of her room.

Yukina wanted to resist, but after what Feathers stated, she knew the winged hero wouldn't give up dragging her out for the day. Yukina just let out a sigh.

"Fine. Just this once. I'll go convince Shoto." Yukina stated, walking down the hall to Shoto's room. Sakura's smile just widened as she turned towards the front door.

"I'll go wait in the front." She had called to Yukina who just waved her off.

So Sakura and the Todoroki twins made their way to the mall. Meeting up with Midoriya and the other two. Denki had brought Kirishima, who in turned practically dragged Bakugo the same way Sakura dragged the twins.

"Hey Poprock!" Sakura said, running up on Bakugo who was annoyed to being brought here. Bakugo just had a pissed off look after being called Pop rock.

"Stop calling me that, Birdbrain." He commanded as Sakura just crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow.

"Then stop calling me 'Birdbrain' idiot."

"I'm way smarter than you! Birdbrain fits you."

"And Poprock fits you!"

"Yea right! I'll explode your ass."

"I.E. You are a Poprock."

The seven others just watched the two fighting, glancing at each when the person spoke. Kirishima seemed surprised even for Bakugo being how he is, it was interesting to see someone go back and forth with him without him trying to attack with his quirk.

"Man, those two seem to really be going at it." Kirishima was saying as they all sweat dropped. Midoriya was actually quite curious on the thought process that Kacchan was thinking about.

"And what is Deku doing here 'Weird hair'! You dragged me out here saying it would just be Sparky here with us."

"I lied!" Kirishima said with his toothy grin. Sakura just smirked at Bakugo as she ruffled his hair. Almost earning a explosive punch from the spikey haired blond.

"Don't worry Poprock, we'll still make this a good day for you. I have plenty of ideas!" Sakura said turning towards the group she had all asked to come out. "There's a place where we can do some Lazer Tag, I know it may be something you may be interested in. After all you wanna prove you're the best amiright?"

She didn't wait for an answer, and called to the others as she grabbed Bakugo's arm and started dragging him towards the lazer tag store she had seen on her way to this meet up point. Bakugo was shouting at her as she dragged him, but she didn't let up.

"You bastard! I can walk on my own. Let me go!" Bakugo didn't seem to fight back too much when Feathers had been dragging her as the others just followed suit of where she had led them.

"So jealous. . ." Denki had said dejectively watching Bakugo be dragged off by the pretty girl.

"We seemed to have an odd number of people, so we'll have to figure out how to split people up, but I think we'll all be good. it'll be four vs five. Perhaps we'll do two rounds with one person switching sides after wards to make it even." Sakura was saying to the group as she continued. She thought of how the teams would be split up and by the time she had got there she looked at everyone. "I think to make it a little interesting we split us up in an unlikely way! Kirishima, Iida, Yukina and Midoriya on team Red the first round. The rest of us on team Blue."

"Why did I come here again?" Shoto was saying boredly, confused why Yukina wanted to socialize as well. Sakura turned towards the male Todoroki twin with her usual smile.

"To have fun, I know that may be a new concept to you Peppermint, but don't worry I'll show you how it's done." Sakura stated, Shoto just blinking back at her after she called him the nick name.

"Peppermint. . ?" Shoto said, confused with the nick name that was given.

"DEKU!" Bakugo was yelling at his childhood 'friend.' "I WON'T LOSE TO YOU AGAIN. NOT EVEN IN LAZER TAG GOT IT?"

The shouting got a few heads turning towards the lively group as both Denki and Kirishima were trying to calm the aggressive blond down. Midoriya had just had a closed eye smile and a hand on the back of his head as the group finally entered the lazer tag area.

Round 1. Kirishima, Iida, Yukina, and Izuku vs. Uraraka, Shoto, Denki, Feathers, and Bakugo.

Feathers turned to her teammates as they had one minute in their starting point to prepare. Everyone was wearing the gear that would light up if different colors if you were shot.

"So this game mode we are playing is pretty much Elimination. If you are shot three times your vest will change color, from Green, to Yellow, to Red. Once it's red then you are eliminated, out of the game." Sakura had said before when they groups were getting the vest on. "The goal is to eliminate all of your opponents, the last team standing wins. Obviously, we can't use our quirks in here because its prohibited, so just take caution."

"We probably should get a plan together. They do have Midoriya on their team who is practically a master strategist, so-" Sakura was saying to her four teammates before getting interrupted.

"Screw a plan! We go in and destroy them all!" Bakugo shouted, his voice almost echoing in the arena.

"Well, we could do that, but you shouting will just give away your position so if you want to get eliminated easily by all means. If you want to win against 'Deku' going in and charging won't- be effective this time. You saw how he reacted in the Hero class." Sakura deadpanned at him. However, the one minute they had been now up as the alarm went off. "Or we could just charge in."

Sakura sighed as Bakugo had already disappeared from their starting point. She looked towards the other three and shrugged. "Let's just have fun yea?" Ochaco and Denki just smiled and nodded before heading off into the dark maze.

Feathers moved quickly. Jumping over some obstacles within the arena and ducking for cover when needed. She fought the urge to use her feathers as scouting, but it didn't help that her feathers still twitched while on her wings. She could hear distant vibrations of where a couple were moving in teams of two.

"DEKU YOU BETTER COME FIGHT ME!" Bakugo's shout echoed in the Lazer Tag arena. Feathers sighed, thinking he should had put the two on a team together, but it would have probably made things a bit more difficult. Feathers hopped over the cover she was at before running towards where Bakugo was yelling from.

She dove when she noticed out of the corner of her eye Kirishima aiming his gun at her. Doing an uncomfortable roll, she crouch-walked towards Bakugo who was just sitting in the open. Peeking out she spotted Iida peeking around the corner looking over Bakugo, ready to strike. Sakura knew she wouldnt had been able to hit him from there while he was near the wall, so instead she decided to let Bakugo stay as bait and distraction as she moved around to a better position to aim.

She pointed and pulled the trigger on her Lazer Gun, Iida's chest lit up a green and he seemed shocked. He looked around as he moved worked to moving back to his starting point, trying to figure out where the point of the shot came from. However in turn, Kirishima took aim at Bakugo and they both shot each other. Another double both getting a green light on their vest.

"Thanks for being the bait Poprock." Sakura called as Bakugo shouted at Kirishima for ruining his targeting. He shouted to her next as he passed by her.

"You're distracted." A voice came from behind as it was Yukina's turn to get a shot in. Sakura glanced down at her vest as it was lit up green as she just smiled, surprised that the icy twin was able to sneak up on her.

"Dang wasn't expecting that." Sakura smirked as she walked back. As time went by each team lost a few. Ochaco and Denki from team blue were eliminated and Kirishima from team Red was out. Iida had gotten hit once, Yukina twice. Izuku had not been hit yet, surprisingly with how Bakugo was hunting him.

Shoto had gotten hit once as Bakugo got hit twice, for being loud in the arena. Sakura was also hit once. So in a three versus three the Bakugo begrudgingly decided that he wasn't going to be hit anymore. Sakura had stayed near the hot headed blond, being his eyes.

"We haven't seen Izuku once, yet he was the one who got Denki out. . ." Sakura was whispering to Bakugo who just grumbled to himself. Sakura eyed around the area, she had sent Shoto around to scout, hoping he'd be able to find his twin and get her out. And as if on queue another buzz went off as Yukina got shot for the final time, her best going red.

"It's pretty easy to sneak up on you sometimes." Shoto was saying, a small smile on his face as Yukina rolled her eyes frustrated.

"Yeah yeah." She grumbled walking towards the elimination box. Now it was just three versus two. Izuku still yet to being shot and Iida two shots away. Shoto was making his way back to where his teammates last were before his vest turned from green to yellow. When the Todoroki twin looked around, he spotted Izuku up on one of the towers. Is that where he's been hiding?

"High ground." Shoto stated as he walked by his team. Sakura glanced over the cover, spotting a slight green in the dark and a smile formed on her face.

"Got a present for ya Poprock. A nice piece of revenge. Here follow and keep it down." Bakugo didn't respond to Sakura when she stated this as she led Bakugo to ramp to the tower. "You're 'prey' is up there. You go get him once and I'll go find Iida."

"That bastard won't know what hit him." Bakugo said lowly, before hoping over the cover and running up into the tower.

"K-Kacchan?!" The shock voice echoed. Sakura hopped this scream would pull out his teammate, and with no shock it actually did.

"Midoriya!" Iida was saying as Sakura aimed and 'shot.' Green and yellow. It was a close game now. Eventually Shoto, Bakugo and Iida all got out and it was just Feathers and Midoriya left. Each with their vests on yellow. One shot would end it all.

Feathers knew it would be easier for Midoriya to sneak around, as she had wings she needed to tuck for this situation. She used bigger covers to hide her body, as she sleeked around each corner. She would listen closely, for any breathing, any emotion, or any shuffle. Once she found her prey, the predator was ready to strike. She spotted Midoriya in a constant movement, trying to find her while also keeping her moving. But unfortunately for him, she spotted him first. In the end Sakura was able to get Midoriya out, Blue team standing victorious.

When she went back to tell the good news she raised her hand for Bakugo to high five, he just completely ignored it. She shrugged and instead high fives Ochaco and Denki.

They planned on doing another round some other time, as it was getting close to the evening. Sakura was keen on making sure to get a group like this back together to return sometime.

"Maybe we'll bring more next time, make it a contest." Sakura suggested as Ochaco nodded eagerly.

"I'm sure the others would love that!" She was saying.

"It would a fun exercise for the class." Iida deduced, think on how good it would be for strategy. Sakura turned towards Bakugo again.

"Admit it Poprock, you had some fun." She had said a smirk on her face.

"Yea right, I'm just glad I scared the crap out of Deku."

"So you did have fun."

"That's not what I said Birdbrain!"

"But you pretty much did!"

"Shut up you bastard!"

Some of the group just laughed as they started departing. They said their goodbyes for the night as they would see each other the next day. Sakura got her goal in relieving some stress in the others. Tomorrow would mark the day of prepping for the sports festival. Finally, her phone rang.

Keigo was calling back.
