His bright yellow hair was covered in dirt as he lay. He breathed short, sharp breaths as he lost consciousness.

EARLIER-

It all started with a series of attacks. At the time they seemed small, caused by a wanna-be group of villains. No one would have guessed there was something larger, more sister behind all of it.

The students of Hero Academia, the #1 hero school in Japan were chosen to pursue these villains, with the accompaniment of a couple of teachers, all of which were pro heroes. If anything dangerous happened, they would be pulled out immediately.

After a couple days of searching with no luck, the students were sitting in the common room of the cabin the school had rented for the occasion. They were casually chatting among themselves.

Shoji had just said something about something in the cabin smelling weird, when an explosion in the forest shook the cabin.

There was a moment of stunned silence, and then there was another explosion, this time closer to the cabin. Several people began to shout instructions, but their voices were drowned out by a third explosion, ripping the cabin in half. Momo had created a large shield in the panic, which successfully protected both herself and several other students. Others however, who were closer to the source of the explosion were tossed into the air.

Denki Kaminari was one of these students. His quirk was absolutely no help in his predicament, and so he closed his eyes as he hurtled to the earth.

He awoke several hours later in a crude shelter. He went to sit up, when he noticed the many bandages wrapped around his torso, the sling over his right arm, and several bruises covering his limbs. Denki winced and laid down again. Another humanoid made its way into the shelter, though he couldn’t make out who it was in the dark. He pretended to still be asleep, unsure if his savior was hero or villain.

“Kaminari?” the figure asked, as it turned to him. The setting sun illuminated a sad grin, and Denki immediately recognized the speaker.

“Sero?” His fellow classmate smiled, relieved. Denki realized the bandages that covered him must have been his quirk’s tape.

“Oh I’m so glad,” Sero sighed. “I thought I’d lost you. I found you a few hours ago in the forest, after the explosion.”

Denki recalled how he ended up there. “Of course, the explosion..! How is everyone else? Where are the teachers?”

“That’s the problem. We were all split up, I can’t find anyone else.” Sero sighed. “I’ve been looking for over three hours, but you were the only one I’ve found… It looks like the villains weren’t such amateurs after all… And we all fell for their traps.”

Denki sighed, and pushed himself into a sitting position despite the pain. “Hey, I’m sure we’ll be okay. At least a few others must’ve gotten away and called the authorities. They’ll be here in no time, and we can both go home.”

A couple hours later, as the sun dipped to touch the horizon, the two sat outside their shelter, enjoying the fire Denki had made. Sero had caught a small rabbit with a trap, which utilized his tape. The two split it, and despite the small size, they were content.

Before long, star began to paint the star. Sero laid down to get a better view of the cosmos as the began to appear in the darkness. Despite the well of worry in his stomach, he smiled, full of hope for the first time that day.

Happy to see Sero smiling, Denki ed him. “Hey, uhm, that’s the Big Dipper, right?”

Sero chuckled. “No, that’s the Little Dipper.”

“... Oh.”

There was an awkward silence between the two before they both started laughing. Were they laughing because it was funny? Or because they were scared? Scared of dying? Scared of the villains? Scared of each other? The pair didn’t know, but for now, they didn’t care. They had made it through that day, they’d make it through the next. And the next, and the next, and the next. However long it took for help to come.

When Denki awoke the next day, he felt an arm wrapped around him. He turned to see Sero hugging him, fast asleep. Denki couldn’t help but laugh. He carefully lifted Sero’s arm as he got up, and stepped into the fresh morning air.

The ashes were still smoking from last night, and smoke was billowing out into the sky from the cabin explosion. Denki turned his head, determined not the get distracted. He had to stay on task.

He started in the small clearing near the brush shelter, collecting sticks and leaves for insulation. Sero had a done a good job in the short time, but when the wind blew, a draft made its way through the walls like a snake, making Denki shiver. His arm ached, but he persevere, refusing to let Sero do all the work.

By the time he was finished, Sero had awoken and started sharpening a stick to make a spear with a sharp rock.

“Woah dude,” Denki chuckled. “You’re going full out survivalist!!”

“Heh,” a forced laugh came from Sero. “We don’t know how long we’ll be stuck here…”

Denki was silent for a moment, his electric blond hair blowing in the wind. “Well, I’ll be here with you that whole time, so don’t you worry!!”

“Hehe… Is that supposed to make me feel better?”

“Oh, shut up!” Denki laughed, and Sero did too, this time for real.

Before the sun had reached the peak of the sky, the boys had set over a dozen small traps for food… And possibly other students. Sero was worried that the majority of the area’s wildlife had been scared off by the explosions, but his fears were unfounded, as they found three rodents when they checked them mid-afternoon.

Denki started another fire with a spark, and they laughed as they ate. Another column of smoke billowed in the distance, but neither of them noticed.

The pair set out after a filling lunch to search for a water source.

“We not only need water to survive, but we may be able to find civilization, or other students if we follow it,” Sero explained.

After about half an hour of hiking, they came across a small stream. It was clear and cool, but Sero stopped Denki from drinking it.

“It might look clear, but who knows what sort of bacteria is in it. We can’t have you getting sick, ya’know.” Denki looked at the water once more, but nodded.

The two followed the stream for over an hour, but after no luck, they headed back to their camp site as the sky turned a brilliant indigo, and the stars started to surface.

They looked at the stars, sitting on an old log. The moon shone, and the stars twinkled. Denki felt a weight rest on his shoulder, and looked down. Sero had fallen asleep, and his head had fallen to rest on his friend’s shoulder. Denki smiled, careful not to disturb his rest.

The next morning, the two were roasting a possum they had caught in their hut the night before. They continued to make small talk, chatting and laughing, when Denki stopped.

“Wait. Did you hear that?” he asked, looking around. “There it is again! Someone’s in the woods.”

Sero listened quietly, and recognized the soft whisper of voices, and through the trees he could just make out humanoid forms. “... The villains. They found us.”

They were surrounded. The two backed into the center of the clearing, preparing to fight.

“Hey, uhm,” Sero murmured. “In case we die here… I wanted to tell you that I l--”

Someone stepped forward, into the clearing, interrupting Sero.

Her black hair glistened in the sunlight, smiling triumphantly. “Guys!! You’re okay!” Momo Yaoyorozu exclaimed.

Their other classmates stepped out of the trees, talking excitedly. They had been reunited with their class, everything was okay.

With the whole group together, they made their way back to the nearest town, where they were given a ride back to their homes. The press was in everyone’s faces, and the school did their best to handle the situation. Before long, everything seemed like it was back to normal… But Denki couldn’t help but wonder what Sero was about to say back there.
