Darkside (BkDK)

~~** Can you bear bait a rabbit? **~~

Uraraka had been sent back to UA to check in with Nezu on the progress of her agency's investigations into finding Deku and Igishi. As she was finishing her report Kirishima, who was on campus for the same reason, burst into the office waving his phone. Breathless and unable to speak, the redhead handed the device over to his brunette classmate.

The confused antigravity quirk user's already large eyes nearly doubled in size as she conveyed its contents to their principle. Learning that his willfully hard-headed blonde pupil had set out alone to track down All Might's successor concerned Nezu but now was not the time to lecture Bakugo. He needed to get others to the location indicated in the greenette's message. If they were not able to find the boy at least they could gain some fresh clues to aid in his recovery. Acting quickly, the miniscule man called in the teachers and sent the two students home with the promise of an update as soon as there was one to be had.

When the pair of concerned friends reached the ground floor of the administration building the redhead's phone alerted to a new message and as he typed he let the brunette next to him see as she held her hand to her mouth in disbelief.

**^^ Unnamed ^^**

Unknown: kacchan is in recovery girls office

Unknown: hes pretty banged up

Kirishima: what happened?!?

Unknown: he needs you more than anyone

Unknown: please take care of him

Unknown: give him time to accept that im gone

Unknown: i know you love him deeply so be sure to show him

Unknown: ill be watching so dont hurt him

It took a moment but soon both youths began to run towards the infirmary. As they rounded the last corner they managed to slam into someone. They had been looking at one another with concern and weren't watching where they were going. Once they each righted themselves they sat sprawled on the floor in shock.

The person they ran into was none other than Izuku.

"Deku! It's really you! OOOOOOO we've missed you so much!" Lunging forward the shocked but elated gravity quirk user tried to embrace her best friend only to have him step to the side as she fell to her knees from the lack of contact. The immediate panic on his freckled face hurt almost as much as her impact with the floor.

"Midobro? What's wrong?" Helping the brunette to her feet, Eijiro looked past the greenette towards the door to the infirmary. "Is Bakugo in there?"

"Take care of him. He'll be mad when he wakes up. Well MORE mad, so be patient. You two are gonna be good together, I just know it." The freckled teen could do nothing to stop the flow of tears now streaming down his cheeks as he turned his attention from red eyes to brown. "I'm so sorry I couldn't be the person you wanted me to be Ura. I know there is some lucky guy out there that is gonna be able to be the perfect person for you and you two will be super happy. I'll keep my eye on you, and maybe one day I'll sneak a peek at your wedding when you find him! "

The curly haired youth attempted to get past the other two and make his escape but was predictably blocked by both. "Can't let you do that Midobro. Stay. If not for Katsuki then stay for your mom. Let us call her so she can come see you! Or we can get Mr. Aizawa or All Might and they can take you to her?"

As the taller boy stepped forward the smaller stepped back. Sensing he was going to run, the hardening quirk user lunged forward to try and grab the teen but was shocked to feel a surprisingly hard hit to the back of his shoulders. Ochako cried out as she saw Deku use Black Whip to grab Red Riot and throw him down the hall towards the room that held the still unconscious Dynamight. Taking advantage of his turned head she tried to use her own quirk on him to eliminate his ability to run only to feel more black energy ribbons wrap around her own arms and waist.
