chapter 51
Location: Paris airport
*Izuku and Tsuyu walked off the airport holding their bags. They took one deep breath of the French air, already feeling lighter.
Tsuyu: This is nice. Should we tell Eri that we're here, Kero?
Izuku:hm, nah. Let's give her a week so she can still be a dumb teenager without parental supervision.
*Izuku did a New Yorker-style whistle, and a taxi stopped in front of them. *Izuku placed the bags in the trunk and opened the door for Tsuyu. Tsuyu touched his cheek lovingly in appreciation and sat down. Izuku sat down next to her.
Izuku: To Le Grand Paris, please
*The taxi driver nodded and drove off. * Tsuyu leaned her head on Izuku's shoulder and cuddled softly against it. *
Tsuyu: A week of just us? My whatever will we do, kero~?
*Tsuyu said in a husky voice that made a small blush appear on Izuku's face*
Izuku: Oh, we'll find ways to entertain ourselves, I'm sure. Just try not to break the bed like last time.
Tsuyu: I promise nothing, Kero.
*Tsuyu raised her head and licked Izuku behind the ear, making him tremble a bit.*
Izuku: So, how do you think the others are doing?
with momo
*We see Momo crying; she was heartbroken. We see her chained to her chair in one leg, and the other had a ball and chain. Setsuna slammed another pile of paperwork.
Setsuna, and after this, the bathrooms need a good scrubbing! I have never been so happy that today is Tuesday. Taco Tuesday
Setsuna said with the most evil glint Momo has ever seen, Momo slammed her fist on the table.
Momo: I'm the CEO of this company. I'm not going to go brush fucking bathroom stalls.
Momo moved back on her chair as Setsuna slammed the axe on the floor, cracking the marble floor.
Setsuna: Sorry, something must've been caught in my ear. Did you say something?
Setsuna said with a terrifying smile. Momo glued her eyes to her paperwork and started working.
Setsuna: Oh, it almost brings a tear to my eye. Now I'm going to go get us some food to show you I'm not so mad at you for making me deal with those asshole shareholders that screamed at me for not being you until I broke down and cried.
Setsuna said in a sweet voice as she skipped out of the room. Momo sighed as she slumped in her chair and lazily kept working.
Kyoka: Man, you really pissed her off now, didn't you?
Momo snapped her head at her emergency door and smiled brightly, getting her hope back alive from the grave.
Momo;Kyo!! You gotta help me!! Setsuna went crazy! She has me locked up with anti-quirk chains!!
Kyoka hummed, walking slowly towards her friend, with whom she has a complicated relationship.
Kyoka: And have she been angry with me too? I don't think so, at least not for free.
Momo: I'll give you anything! Money, fame, riches, and infinite power! Your own galaxy!! Please!!
Momo said desperation clearly in her voice.
Kyoka:a date. I want a public date with you—no more of this hiding or me being your booty call.
Kyoka said with a blush, but her face was deadly serious. Momo froze for a moment, fear flashing behind her eyes.
Momo;b...but what about Denki?
Kyoka: We broke up again. But this time it's going to be different since you, my dear prisoner, are going to treat me like an actual romantic partner, so yes or no? Freedom for a real-ass date where you treat me more than a stress toy
Kyoka walked to the door and pushed a shoulder against it. The sound of the door trying to be opened could be heard.
Setsuna:what the? Momo What's the meaning of this?!
Momo gave a small scream and looked at Kyoka, who was a cucumber cook. Momo gulped and opened her mouth, her voice trembling a little.
Momo:f..fine! Just hurry up!!
*The sound of an axe hitting the wooden door could be heard as Kyoka ran to Momo and took a bobby pin from her hair. She quickly picked up the lock, releasing Momo from her chains. Momo's fight or flight instincts kicked in when the sharp end of the axe could be seen coming out of the backside of the shelves. She chose flight and ran like her life depended on it, because it did. Kyoka followed her and closed the secret door just as Setsuna slashed and opened the door.
Setsuna: Ok, what's going on here?!
Setsuna screamed furiously. She looked around, her anger just getting worse and worse as she saw the chains on the ground and no momo in sight. Setsuna gave a high-pitched scream that cracked a mirror as she grabbed her hair and started pulling on it.
Setsuna:MOMO WHEN I FIND YOU, I GONNA USE YOUR SKIN AS A FUCKING COAT, AND I PUT THAT ON GOD!!
Setsuna screamed two steps away from unlocking a fire, breathing a quirk with how angry she was. She went in search of her prey as Kyoka cackled and ran to catch up to a terrified momo.
Kyoka: Alright, I got a date out of this, not a total loss."
Alright, now for what you've all been waiting a long time for...
Meanwhile, Ei is all the way in Paris.
We see her and Monika walking around the city of love at sundown. Both girls are holding each other's hands and not talking; they are simply enjoying each other's company.
Eri: I needed this.
Eri said softly, resting her head on Mnoka's shoulder. Minoka smiled, turning her head around and kissing Eri's forehead.
Minoka: I'm glad. Eri, do you want to become official?
Monica said gently. There was no grand expression of love, no elaborate plan to show Eri how much she loved her. All they had were these moments—this small moment in time where their trouble seemed insignificant. Eri blushed slightly and gave Minoka a smile.
Eri: Yes, Mínoka, I would like that. I would like that very much.
*Monika grinned at her now-official girlfriend and grabbed the chin of Eri's head, lifting it. Eri gave a small gasp as their eyes squinted slightly. Eri got on her tippy toes and got closer, closing the gap and having their first kiss as a couple.
With Mirio Togata
"to 30 years in prison."
*Those words kept repeating themselves inside his brain: he's going to lose 30 years of his life, and for what? We see him with a haunted look on his face; he was currently in a bus filled with inmates like him, all heading to the same place: prison. Mirio was looking out of the mirror, seeing the world pass him by as, second by second, he got closer to the destination where he'd be without a quirk and surrounded by prisoners he had locked up and had nothing to lose.
Ichi: So, what are you in for?
Mirio looked to his seatmate, just some low-level gang member.
Mirio:.....
Flashback
Mirio was in a small room hours from being sent to prison; he had anti-quirk chains around his ankles, and his wrists were chained up on the table. The door opened, revealing Toshinori, who had his head down. Both didn't say anything as the older user of OFA sat down.
Toshinori:mirio I'm... I'm so sorry; I failed you. I'm sorry you'll have to go through this. Words can't express how sorry I am for this.
Mirio was about to say something when he looked horrified at Toshinori.
Mirio: What are you doing?!
Mirio asked and tried to move away, to move back, and to do anything to stop Toshinori's hand from moving forward. With a tear falling from his face, Toshinori took a strand of hair from Mirio's head, taking away OFA. He placed the hair in a small bag and sealed it shut.
Toshinori; I'm sorry, my son; I don't have any options left. The world needs OFA.
Mirio: toshinori!! You can't do this! All I did EVERYTHING I DID!!! I DID IT BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TO DO IT!!
The sounds of chains rattling started to fill the room as Mirio looked desperately at his hero, the man he believed without question. Toshinori took a shaky breath and got up.
Toshinori: I hope you'll find it in your heart to forgive me one day and that you'll be able to see that the needs of the world are more important than the needs of yourself. Goodbye Mirio Togata, I'll come to visit even if you despise me. But I won't let you be alone, I promise.
Mirio: TOSHINORI, ALL MIGHT COME BACK HERE!! YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOME KIND OF PLAN TO FREE ME!!! I DID THIS FOR YOU. DON'T IGNORE ME!!!
*The sound of the door closing might as well be the sound of shattered glass for Mirio as he felt everything he worked to the bone crumble apart through his fingertips.*
Present
Mirió: putting my faith in the wrong man
Meanwhile, with Nejire
We see her doing paperwork with a frown; the news of the trial was still everything the media was talking about. To see the man she once loved fall so much in such a short time broke Nejires heart. To make matters worse, Tamaki won't pick up the phone for whatever reason. Nejires has never felt so alone before. She was taken out of her room with a knock on her door.
Nejire:it's opened!
The door knocked again. Nejire looked up at it.
Nejire: I said it's opened!!
*The door knocked for a third time, and a tick mark started to appear on Nejire's forehead.*
Nejire:I said.....
Nejire froze as the door knocked a fourth time, and then it hit her. In the rhythm of the knock, there was only one person she knew who knocked in that pattern. She almost fell flat on her face, running to the door. She opened it, and her hope didn't fail her.
Tamaki: Hey Neji, I heard what happened, and I thought you could use some compa.
Tamaki took a step back as Nejire jumped at him, hugging him with full force.
Tamaki;uff! Guess I guessed right, huh?
Tamaki's eyes widen when Nejire kisses him full on the lips. Penelope was looking with wide eyes until someone covered her poor innocent eyes; it was Nejire's assistant, Shinsou.
Shinsou: Yeah, you're too young to see this. Want to see some cats?
Penelope: ok
Shinsou grabbed Penelope and lifted her into his arms.
Shinsou: Boss, I'm taking his daughter to the cat cafe next door; she's too young to see all of that.
Nejire nodded as she moved her weight around, making Tamaki stumble inside the office, closing the door behind him.
Back to Izutsuyu
Tsuyu: I'm sure everyone is doing fine. Kero
*Tsuyu said she was cuddling next to Izuku. Izuku rested his head on top of Tsuyu's, and they just enjoyed the ride.
