After a week later, probably a couple days more, I was awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of someone running through the apartment again. I of course let reflexes get the better of me, so I jumped over the railing of the loft instead of taking the spiral staircase and landed using a quirk to mute my landing. As I ran to the door, I noticed that someone just made it to the doorway of my room. Just as I was going to punch the person, they flipped the light switch. I was blinded by the bright light as I carried out the punch, but then noticed that it was Aizawa again. Thankfully he caught the punch before I could actually hit him.

"I'm sorry! I didn't know it was you!" I said as I took a step back.

Before I could ask why he was in his hero costume, he quickly ordered, "We have to go to the dorms. Eri texted me saying that a couple people are there and shouldn't be. Just about everyone is fighting. Get ready quickly and teleport there."

"Yes, sir." I said as I took the order before teleporting us to the dorms and changing into my hero costume at the same time. When we arrived, we were at the front doors of the main building. I tried again to teleport to the dorms, but it wouldn't work. "Why the hell won't it work?" I muttered to myself in an angered tone.

Aizawa began to run, which I followed shortly behind. I activated a running quirk so I was faster. As I passed him, I smacked his shoulder so he too could pick up the pace. "What did you do?" he asked.

"It's a running quirk, much like Iida's. It will wear off when you stop running, so don't stop until we make it to the dorms." I explained as I kept looking ahead.

When we made it to the front doors of the dorm, we stopped running as he ordered, "Find Eri and bring her back to the apartment. After that come back and help."

"Yes, sir." I said before running into the dorm and going straight to the room that was my dorm. I used a quirk to go through the door. It was dark, so I turned on the light. As soon as I did, I heard a yelp. I noticed that she was curled up in the corner and afraid. I slowly walked towards her as I said quietly, "Eri, it's only me, Y/N."

She looked to me slowly before running to me and clung onto me as she said, "Y/N! I'm so scared!"

She then looked up and let out a little scream. Before I knew it, I was hit in the side of the head and landed on Eri's bed. I quickly jumped off the bed and readied myself in a fighting stance. "Close your eyes." I ordered Eri and I kept my eyes on the intruder. I didn't know who the person was since they wore all black from head to toe. That didn't matter though. I roundhouse kicked them in the face, which they went flying backwards and went right through the door. Once I saw that they went through the door, I realized that I put too much into the kick; but hey, at least I knew that they were knocked out. I handcuffed them and left them there in the hallway. I then quickly turned back to Eri as I said, "Alright, I'm going to bring you back to the apartment." I then picked her up and tried to teleport back, but it still didn't work. I grumbled about it as I began to run out of her room with her in my arms.

As I ran through the hall, I noticed in the distance that Bakugo was now fighting one of the intruders that looked exactly like the one I had just fought. As soon as he saw me he asked, "Oi, where're you going with her?" he then punched the intruder as he used his quirk.

"Safety." I replied before saying to Eri quietly and covering her head with my hand, "Don't look. Keep your eyes closed." She then buried her face into my chest as she wrapped her arms around my neck. I took a couple lunges before jumping up and kicking another intruder that was behind Bakugo and about to attack him. It fell to the ground and laid there, motionless. Before I began to run again, I turned to him and said in a serious tone, "Watch your back."
