The Beginning of the End? Careful Planning!

The first thing we did this morning was visit the hospital. I couldn't believe my eyes as I saw the condition Momo was in. She must've gotten the worst of it. She looked like as if the League attacked her but 5 times as severe and violent. Her forehead was wrapped and it covered her left eye. Her right arm was broken, both of her legs were broken, and that's all I could tell. I made my way over to her and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Alyx...? I-Is... Is that... You?" She croaked.

I held her left hand, "Yes, it is, darling."

Her lip quivered as tears started to build up and fall down her face.

"I-I tried... I really... Really d-did..." Momo wept.

I held her gently, "I know, and you did good. All that matters is that you're alive."

"B-But... Everyone else... They..." Momo whimpered.

"Shoto told me everything. You don't need to worry, I'm handling it." I cooed.

"You aren't going by yourself, are you?" Momo asked.

I nodded, "As foolish as it sounds, I am. I'm not risking anyone else's life with that bitch."

Momo's grip slightly tightened on my hand and she looked at me. The look of fear and regret riddled her eye.

"Don't." She chided.

"I'll be okay, Momz. I know how to deal with her, I promise I won't do anything stupid." I told her.

I'm going to unload the holy fucking shit onto Tomikoa once I see her, that damn bitch is going to pay! After I visited everyone else, I met back up with Shoto, Tsuyu and Uraraka. We started walking out of the hospital and back to the dorms.

"So, what do we do now?" Uraraka questioned.

"We plan, that's what we do." I replied.

They looked at me and it seemed as if they didn't know what I meant.

"Plan? What exactly are we going to plan against her, Alyx?" Shoto wondered.

"You guys don't have to do anything, all I ask is that you aid in saving civilians if needed." I hinted.

Tsuyu shook her head, "Alyx, you can't fight her alone! Did you not see what happened yesterday?"

"Tsuyu, I have enough power to stop her, all I need is time. Which might not be something that we have. If that's the case, I'll recover in the Seventh Plane with Grandpa Tanjiro, Aunt Nezuko, and the Hashira." I explained.

"Well, she's disappeared, so she could be anywhere. Tomikoa said that she was going to go after you, but I guess that never happened." Shoto told me.

"She's going to regret leaving me alive, I'll make sure every bone in her body is shattered, that's for damn sure. Everyone is counting on us, we can't let her get away with this." I responded.

As we walked to the dorms, we devised a plan, which required me to be at 100%. Our plan was basically more of a last-ditch effort kind of plan. Our plan was to send me in and if I needed help, I'd signal for them to step in. I would distract Tomikoa first before fighting her since they'll need to evacuate the citizens. We got back to the dorms and sat down in the common room. Not even five minutes after, Principal Nezu walked in.

"Good evening, I suppose you four just got back from visiting the hospital, yes?" He asked.

"Yes sir, we did." I agreed.

"We'll being that most of the staff members are injured or unaccounted for, we've had no choice but to suspend studies until further notice. You all are welcome to return home for the time being." Principal Nezu explained.

"Thank you so much, Principal Nezu!" We nodded.

"You're welcome! I apologize for the inconvenience; I hope you all stay safe!" Principal Nezu smiled.

Principal Nezu left and we packed some of our stuff. I called my mother to let her know that I was coming home.

"Hey, Mom, I'm going to be coming home today. Aaaand possibly for a while." I told her.

"I was told, Principal Nezu told me everything already. If you'd like to bring those friends of yours over, I'd be more than glad to let them stay!" My Mother chirped.

"Okay, I'm pretty sure you'll know if I bring any of them with me. See you soon Mom, I love you!" I smiled.

We hung up and I finished packing my things up. I didn't bring too much with me since most of the stuff I couldn't bring with me anyway. I walked downstairs and waited at the door with Uraraka.

"I didn't have much stuff anyways, you know what they say, broke girl problems!" Uraraka joked.

I smiled and shook my head, "Good grief..."

We all four eventually walked out of the dorms together and went our separate ways. I was too busy thinking to realize that Uraraka was still walking with me.

"Did you hear what I said?" She asked.

"O-Oh, sorry! I was thinking!" I nervously laughed.

"Well, I was wondering if I could stay with you for a while? Sorry if I'm bothering you, Alyx." She repeated.

I could tell that she wasn't coping well with all of this, honestly, I was kind of feeling the same way as her.

"Sure, it's no big deal, my Mother said that she was fine with me bringing any of you guys with me." I answered.

[15 Minutes Later...]

I rang the doorbell and Liz was standing right at the door.

"Aly! Wait... Why is Ms. Chako with you?" She questioned.

"Oh, well... She's staying here for a few days!" I told her.

"Mommy! Aly and Ms. Chako are here!" She yelled.

My Mother entered the entryway from the kitchen, "Uravity! It's a pleasure to see you!"

She gave her a hug and let us inside.

"I've already prepared the rooms for you two. Alyx, can you show her to the guest room upstairs?" My Mother politely asked.

I nodded and walked upstairs, we walked all the way to the end of the hallway, and I opened the guest room door.

"Here it is! I'll be in that room furthest to the right, right before the stairs. If you need anything, feel free to ask one of us." I beamed.

"Okay, I will, thank you!" Uraraka smiled.

I closed her door and walked into my room. It looked pretty much the same except the posters were missing and some books were gone as well. I unpacked my stuff and got resituated. I laid down on my bed and stared at my ceiling fan. I wasn't sure if I was feeling anxious about this whole thing or if I'm just on edge right now.

My Mother opened my door, "Sweetheart, I'm making dinner, it should be ready in about 25 minutes."

"Alright, thank you, Mom." I acknowledged.

"Alyx? Is there something wrong? Normally people just don't look off into space for no reason." She wondered.

I sat up, "I think you already know why."

She came over and sat down on my bed, my mother put her hand on my shoulder and looked at me.

"It just doesn't feel real, it's almost as if this is some twisted nightmare." I continued.

My Mother hugged me, "Trust me, I won't let anything happen to you, I promise. Your Mother was a Pro Hero once, you know!"

"I know! But I don't want you to get involved with this, the last thing I need is you getting hurt." I responded.

She got up from my bed and smiled, she put her hand on my head.

"I've never beaten up a teenager before, but don't think I won't do it. Also, I'm making something new tonight for dinner!" She exclaimed.

My Mother left my room and I sighed. I already knew my entire body was going to be sore by the end of this whole thing.

[4 Hours Later...]

For the life of me I just couldn't sleep at all. It felt like I had my eyes closed for hours! I heard my door slowly creak open and shut. There wasn't any noise until I heard whoever it was crawl into my bed. If the footsteps were that light, it must've been Liz, but wouldn't she be in bed by now? I felt an arm gently wrap around me, I opened my left eye and saw those ever so familiar finger pads. Uraraka scooted closer to me and she rested her forehead on my upper back.

"This is dumb, Uraraka... Just grow up and get over it, you're bothering him enough already..." She muttered.

"Don't worry, I understand. If this is how you cope than I'd rather you do this than suffer in silence." I responded to her muttering.

She didn't say anything, but I could tell that she was a bit surprised that I was awake still. Uraraka moved herself closer to me and I relaxed more. I finally fell asleep as I felt Uraraka's breathing begin to slow as well.

"Young Leonidus? What are you doing?" I heard All Might's voice.

I opened my eyes and found myself in the Seventh Plane? Unless this was a dream, maybe? I sat up and saw that All Might was sitting on a bench. I got up and brushed myself off.

"Come, sit down. I've got something I want to talk to you about." He softly smiled.

I sat down on the bench next to him and we gazed out towards the void of white.

"You've got quite the obstacle in front of you, Young Leonidus. I'm pretty sure I'd have a hard time taking her on even in my prime!" All Might noted.

"Yeah, that's why I'm having doubts. Being that it's just the four of us, I'm not sure if we'll be able to take her down." I admitted.

All Might placed his hand on my shoulder, "You won't be fighting alone, I can assure you that, Young Leonidus. There will always be someone lingering in the shadows, waiting for their chance to strike! All you have to do is have the courage to confront whatever's in front of you, my boy."

"I don't know, are you sure, All Might?" I doubted.

"Of course I am! I wouldn't be spouting B.S. to you." He reassured.

I nodded and gazed back at the void, "I guess I should be going now. Thank you, All Might."

"Indeed! Remember, Go Beyond! Plus Ultra, Young Leonidus!" All Might exclaimed as he faded away.

I woke up and rubbed my eyes, Uraraka was still asleep but with both arms wrapped around me. I looked at my alarm clock, it was 2:46 AM. My left side of my chest stung with sharp pains with every breath I took. I sat up and rubbed that side of my chest.

"Huh...? Are you alright, Alyx?" Uraraka groggily asked.

"Y-Yeah... I-It's just my chest." I replied.

Uraraka sat up and thew the blanket off of her, "I'll be right back! You have ice, right?"

I nodded and she quickly left my room. She came back after a few minutes with an ice pack.

"Lift up your shirt, please." She told me,

I laid back down and lifted up my shirt, she placed the ice pack on the left side of my chest. I held it for her and she climbed back into bed.

"Thanks, I'm think I'm starting to feel a lot better now." I smiled.

[7 Hours Later...]

I luckily woke up still in bed and not floating in the air. I slowly sat up, yawned and then stretched. I looked over at Uraraka who was still sleeping, I turned my T.V on, and the first thing I saw woke me up completely. The counts of the missing from Tomikoa's attack totaled nearly 80,000 people. Those who died, including some Pros, were 500,000+. People were doubting the srength of the Hero society, which caused many to fear even leaving their homes. But the one thing that hurt the most, was when they showed footage of Deku and the others in the hospital. It was another reminder of how high the stakes were now.

The people were looking for an answer and I was more than happy to give it to them. I turned off my T.V. and laid back down in my bed, which Uraraka yawned and opened her eyes.

"Good morning." She somnolently muttered.

"Morning." I responded.

I picked up my phone and dialed up Shoto, "Hey, you awake?"

"Yeah, what's up?" He asked.

"I think it's time to settle things." I smiled.
