《Unmasked (Depressed Bakugou x Todoroki)》Rescue(?)

⚠️⚠️
⚠️⚠️
Everyone was hanging out in the common area of the dorm building. They were all going to watch movies and sleep there as a huge sleepover. Everyone was invited except for Mineta because the first time they did a huge slumber party like that he tried to take pictures of the girls in their sleep.
The 5 students who knew about Toga had a plan that was going to be set in motion. Before they put on the first movie, Uraraka took Toga into the kitchen area, far away so no one could hear the class discussion. She was to distract Toga as long as she could.
Iida started, "Everyone, I have an announcement to make! Please know that you will all have questions and none of them will be answered right away. You just need to trust us and follow the plan-"
Bakugou interrupted, "You're taking to long." He groaned.
"Well do you want to explain?"
"Not really."
"I'll just say it." Tsu said before any of them could start talking again.
"The traitor is Mina. But it's not Mina. It's the Villain Himiko Toga."
There were small gasps and whispers which were quickly cut off as Yaoyorozu shushed everyone so they could listen before the two came back.
"She needs Mina's blood to keep pretending to be Mina. She'll need it soon. Maybe tonight. So we have to keep a good eye." Tsu finished.
"We have informed Mineta and he is, strangely but not unexpectedly very okay with keeping an eye on her." Iida informed. The girls shuddered.
"Just make sure to sleep with one eye open." Todoroki blandly stated.
Uraraka came in first, peaking her head around the wall to warn everyone Toga is coming.
"So did you guys pick a movie?" Toga asks.
"Yeah we chose All Might: Civil War." Midoriya clicked on the first movie on the TV.
"Cool. Who's side are you guys on? I'm team Endeavor." Uraraka said sitting by Midoriya.
"Let me guess, because of Hawks?" Tokoyami asked.
"Who's side are you on?" Yaoyorozu asked.
The conversation went on for who's side is on who the entire movie. They watched one more movie, a comedy romance movie. The girls chose it and almost everyone fell asleep watching it.
Bakugou turned off the tv and lay down. He couldn't really go to sleep, like most nights. But for Todoroki, he's trying.
Bakugou closes his eyes so he can tru to sleep. He turns occasionally. After a while he determines that he cannot and will not sleep. He'll just pretend to sleep and when Toga gets up he'll follow.
An hour later Bakugou can feel Mineta staring. Even if he isn't staring at him. The only girls remotely close to him was Yaoyorozu. He quietly threw a pillow at Mineta and pointed to a sleeping Toga. He was supposed to be watching her.
Hours later, it's around 2 in the morning. Bakugou still can't sleep. Bags are forming under his eyes. He turns, facing Todoroki. He just looks at him. Todoroki is sleeping peacefully. He looks so calm and serene.
Bakugou hears a rustling. Too much for someone who's asleep. He opens one of his eyes slightly. He can see Toga walking quietly and calmly. He can wake up someone, which could take too much time, or go himself.
He decides to do both. Bakugou shakes Todoroki. As his eyes start to flicker open slowly, he takes his leave. Silently following Toga.

She seems to have it in her mind that no one is following her. She just skips off campus, humming to herself.
Bakugou looked behind him. No one was following them. At least no one he saw.
Bakugou continued following Toga. When she turned a corner he quickly speed walked to catch up with her.
When he turned the corner she was standing still, waiting for him.
"Morning Katsuki! Walk with me!" She creepily smiled. A bead of sweat made its way down his face. He was about to activate his quirk when someone spoke.
"That wasn't an offer!" He felt a hand on his shoulder. No not a full hand. Four fingers. It was Shigaraki.
Bakugou almost immediately gave up on fighting. He couldn't fight them. Not at all. Bakugou looked down, slumping his shoulders.
It was a long, slow walk. They arrived at an abandoned building. When they walked in they passed a room with a flickering fluorescent light and a dirty, bloody mattress. On the mattress was the real Mina Ashido. She looked fine. Looked.
"Min-" before Bakugou could say anything Shigaraki shushed him.
"You're coming with me." They walked to another room. It looked the exactly the same. Only there wasn't blood on Bakugou's mattress. Shigaraki tossed him inside the room.
"He's all yours." He exited the room and Toga entered.
"Welcome back Katsuki!"
Then the screams started. Mina covered her ears but they were so loud. She couldn't do anything but sit there cry.
—
Todoroki's eyes fluttered open. When he sat up he saw Bakugou leaving. He looked over to where Toga was. She wasn't there either. Todoroki quickly sprung into action. He turned on the light which made some people wake up, he woke up others and told his sleepy classmates what he'd seen. That means they were in danger.
Midoriya ran to get Aizawa. If they had just left they couldn't be far. There were cameras. They could easily find Bakugou, Mina, and the villains. Hopefully.
Everyone got dressed, out of their pajamas and into their hero suits. Aizawa ran to check the security cameras. He followed every street they turned. Then they approached onto a street with no camera. Which means Bakugou and Mina where in one of the buildings there.
In less than 10 minutes the students and Aizawa were searching through buildings.
Kirishima was with Yaoyorozu. They heard a loud scream in the building they were in. They looked at each other. Not saying a word but understanding each other completely. Yaoyorozu left the building to get Aizawa and more. Kirishima ran deeper into the building, looking for anyone.
When he turns a corner he's met with the villain Spinner.
"Sorry wannabe. You aren't getting any farther than here." He pulled out all of his knives and swords.
"Wheres Bakugou and Mina?" Spinner didn't answer. Instead he ran for Kirishima. He activated his quirk in defense. When Spinner's weapons made contact with Kirishima's hardened skin, some of them shattered into pieces. Some of Kirishima's hardening cracked as well. They engaged in an all out battle.
Bakugou screamed as Dabi's flames were centimeters away from his cheek. They burned so much. He was burning him. It hurt so much.
"My turn!" Toga said as she pulled a knife seemingly out of no where. The pain was becoming unbearable. Burn marks clearly visible on his skin.
Toga made the pain worse. She would cut the burn marks, making him scream louder. She licked the blood off her knife and digested it.

"STOP! PLEASE STOP!" you could Mina yell.
They can hear a shout. Someone saying something. All they can hear is the echo of, "..."
"HELP!" Mina screamed.
"Make sure you don't kill him." Shigaraki told Toga. He looked at Dabi, who knew immediately what he was going to say. Shut the girl up. He left the room. Tears of pain flooded down Bakugou's face. She continued to cut him. She was having fun. Enjoying his pain.
Mr. Compress ran to Shigaraki. "What are we gonna do boss. That meddlesome Class 1A and their teacher is here. It's just us, we can't possibly win. It'll be impossible."
Shigaraki thought for a second.
"If we cant win. We can at least take something from them." He scratched just neck and went inside the room with Bakugou and his now bloodied mattress. He gestured for Toga to leave. She pouted and licked the rest of his blood off her knife, leaving the room.
Shigaraki walked over to Bakugou, who was a little out of it from pain, everything blurry from the tears yet to fall from his eyes.
"Waste of space. I don't know why they're risking their lives to save you. Ashido I get but you? Hm." He said as he put four fingers on his shoulder. Bakugou was shaking.
"If you can, stop that. You might make me accidentally.." Shigaraki pulled his thumb a few more centimeters closer to Bakugou's shoulder.
"Just fucking do it." He whispered. Shigaraki looked at him.
"Just put me out of misery." Bakugou cried. Shigaraki let out a smile no one could see from behind the hand over his face.
"No," Bakugou looked at Shigaraki, who scratched his neck with his free hand, "I want you to suffer. Like I've suffered. I want you to know how it's like. You will never find happiness."
In that moment Bakugou did what no one would've thought he would do. He grabbed Shigaraki's arm and put it on his shoulder. He shut his eyes tight, expecting to feel pain or something.
Instead he was met with some of his fellow classmates at the door along with Aizawa, who had activated his quirk. Shigaraki was knocked against the wall by Kirishima.
"Bakubro!? You okay!?" There was lots of worry in his voice.
Bakugou nodded. He wiped the tears from his face quickly.
"How's Mina?" Bakugou asked.
"She's fine," answered Aizawa, "No harm came to her except for cuts on her arms for Toga. Who has been handled."
Shigaraki groaned and scratched his neck. Aizawa's eyes glowing a faint red from behind his goggles, stopping Shigaraki from doing any damage.
The students took Toga, Shigaraki, and Spinner. Dabi the other villains got away and the threat of the league still stands, as long as one is alive. But for now all they could do is wait and get Mina and Bakugou to safety.
When they got to recovery girl, back at UA, she insisted that Bakugou he first to be healed, but he denied and let Mina go first. Almost everyone objected but he insisted.
When she healed them they immediately passed out. Mina slept for a few hours. She had lost a lot of blood but she was going to be fine. Bakugou was cut deep in some places and they left a few scars on his arms and stomach.
Todoroki, Kaminari, and Kirishima stayed inside to watch and wait for him to wake up. They did ask why Todoroki stayed and he answered with,
"We've grown closer since we've became dorm mates." They shrugged it off.
"I'm going to go get some snacks. Do you guys want any?" Kirishima asked, getting up from the chair he was sitting in.
"I'm good." Todoroki answered.
"I could go for some pretzels." Kaminari said.
Kirishima have a thumbs up and left the room. The two boys sat in silence for a few seconds. The only thing that could be heard was their and Bakugou's breathing.
"Hey, we both arrived at the same time, a little earlier than everyone else, right?" Kaminari asks.
"Yes." Todoroki answered simply.
"So you saw it...what he did?"
Todoroki took a deep breath. "Yes."
"What do we do?"
"I don't know." Tension filled the air. They didn't talk for minutes until Kirishima came in.
"Here's your pretzels." He handed the bag of pretzels to Kaminari, who gladly took them. As he opened the bag, Bakugou woke up in a cold sweat. He looked around frantically.
"Calm down Bakugou it's us." Kaminari said. He looked at all of them and calmed down, taking a sigh of relief.
"Are you alright?" Todoroki asked.
"Yeah. How long has it been? What day is it?"
"You've been out for three days. It's fine. Mr. Aizawa gave us no class for a week." Kaminari smiled, "Want a pretzel?" Bakugou shook his head no.
"I'll go get Recovery Girl. To see if you're allowed to go back to the dorms." Todoroki said and with that he was gone.
When Recovery Girl cleared him to go back, she warned him to take it slow. No training or anything. She gave him some pain meds just in case anything came back to hurt. He nodded and let his friends walk him back to his dorm.
They offered to stay with him but he said he wanted to be left alone and closed the door in their faces. The two bro's at each other, worry clear on their faces.
"How are you feeling?" Todoroki asks him. He just nods. He hasn't said anything much since he woke up.
"Do you want to talk about it?" He shook his head no.
"Will you be alrigh-" He didn't finish the question before Bakugou interupted him.
"Stop asking stupid fucking questions Icyhot."
"Do you need compan-"
"Just go do something that requires for you to not talk to me. I want to be alone." Bakugou said. He looked up at Todoroki and said, "Please."
The look in his eyes was so empty, filled with nothing but the darkness of the abyss. Todoroki wanted to do nothing but stay by his side, but he decided against it.
"If you need anything.." He took out his phone. Bakugou nodded. Todoroki sighed and left the room, looking at Bakugou one more time before closing the door and leaving.
After looking at the door for a while, Bakugou had a breakdown. He sobbed and cried, looking at the scars Toga had left. He touched the shoulder where Shigaraki's cold hand touched and cried.
"I can't do this anymore." He said to himself, "I can't."
Bakugou pulled out pain meds Recovery Girl gave him. He opened the bottle and poured almost all of them into his hands
"I just can't." He popped them in his mouth.

Travelers [DROPPED]
DROPPED. The story focuses less on dungeon building than on the why of dungeons and how they fit into the universal order. While I am working from a grand plot, the writing is going slice of life style because I need to do that to work out how things progress into that grand plot. The original story seed idea / synopsis is below. The Grand Tapestry protects Rhofhir from Primal Chaos by imposing Order via patterns. However, the patterns grow stiff, stagnant, and so the Tapestry is nearing a time of Unraveling. Evidence of past civilizations wiped out during previous Unravelings foreshadow the apocalyptic catastrophe looming over the world. The mages of the Arcane Asylum reach out across dimensions, searching for some way to prevent, or at least stall, the coming Unraveling. Among the many voices they find is a gifted graduate student researching machine-assisted telepathy -- and his gaming group. Lena never expected that the chance to play DnD with telepathy would result in her becoming an actual Dungeon Master, nor that her friends could become the bosses of her dungeon. This is, in many ways, her dream come true, but there's a catch: What happened to Brad, the creator of that telepathy machine?
