Chapter 217:- Homecoming

The mysterious mastermind sat in his dimly lit office, his fingers tapping impatiently on the desk. His jaw clenched in frustration. He had just received news that Izuku had taken the patients they had been experimenting on.

The mastermind's plans were crumbling one after another, and it was always that one person messing with his plans.

He knew he cannot just sit ideally while Izuku was ruining his plans, he needed to do something and there was only one person who was capable enough to solve that issue for him now.

With a sharp inhale, he turned his computer on and connected it to the secure line, as he called AFO. The line clicked, and after a brief silence, the voice of All For One greeted him calmly.

"Yes master?" All For One's voice was cold, almost indifferent, yet it had a sense of submissiveness into it.

"It's Izuku again," the mastermind snapped, his voice low but filled with anger. "He's taken the patients from Kyoto, destroying the facility. Everything we've been working for is falling apart, and I need you to fix it."

There was a pause on the other end, but All For One didn't sound surprised. "I see. What exactly do you need me to do?"

The mastermind gritted his teeth. "I need you to find those patients. We can't let them get away. Izuku must have taken them somewhere. Do you have any idea where he could have hidden them? I need to know, now."

All For One was silent for a moment, considering his options. Then, his voice came through again, steady and confident. "I'll find them for you.

Izuku's been a problem for us, but not one we can't handle. I have been preparing countermeasures for him as you told me to.

He may have outsmarted us for now, but he can't hide them forever, with the bold claim that he will return those patients to their families, we will be one that has the last laugh." AFO said.

The mastermind's fist slammed onto the desk. "You better. This was an operation I invested a lot in, and I won't let him ruin everything!"

All For One remained calm. "Please have patience, master, and calm down. I'll handle this.

I'll contact my people and search all the hospitals and possible locations where those patients could be. They won't stay hidden for long."

"You better be right," the mastermind muttered, his voice shaking with barely controlled rage. "I've worked too hard for this to slip away now."

All For One's voice was smooth as ever. "You'll have your answers soon enough. Trust in the process master. Izuku might be strong, but he's not invincible, he has revealed a good chunk of weakness that we will use to destroy him."

With that, AFO ended the call as the line went dead, leaving the mastermind fuming. He threw the computer across the room, sending it crashing into the wall.

His plans, his control, everything was slipping through his fingers, and it drove him mad.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, All For One calmly set down his phone and leaned back in his chair.

With a slow exhale, he began making calls to his network of contacts, giving clear, precise instructions.

"That brat, causing so much problem for my master, I would have spared you after taking your quirk, but now death will be a luxury which you will beg for but not get." Said AFO as he looked at Kurogiri as he said, "Bring in all of my contacts across the country in half an hour."

Kurogiri nodded as in half an hour AFO's bar was filled with people all of them looking at the TV screen.

Soon AFO appeared on the screen as he said, "Search every hospital, every medical facility," he ordered, his voice calm but commanding.

"I want all possible locations scouted. Izuku Midoriya may have taken some patients. Find them, and report back immediately. I want results within the hour." AFO said.

His contacts nodded as they scattered, following his orders without question. AFO's eyes narrowed as he leaned back further, a faint smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.

"Let's see how long you can play this game, Izuku."

Izuku and Fuyumi stepped through the door of their home, their hands still entwined from their time together. The air inside was warm and familiar, and before they could fully settle in, they were met with the sound of hurried footsteps.

Momo was the first to greet them, a wide smile on her face as she quickly wrapped her arms around Izuku, giving him a soft kiss. "Welcome back, Izuku," she said warmly, her eyes gleaming. "We missed you."

Kaina followed, her hug tighter, lips lingering against his cheek. "You've been gone too long," she teased, her voice sultry. "We were starting to feel neglected."

Maki laughed as she embraced him next. "Can't leave you alone for a second, can we?"

Rei was last, her hug more gentle, her kiss soft. "I'm glad you're back," she whispered, her voice filled with affection.

However she wasn't the last one. Eri came running towards Izuku, "Daddyyyy," saying that she jumped on Izuku tightly hugging him as she said, "Did you miss me?"

Izuku hugged her tightly as he said, "Of course sweetheart, if I wouldn't miss you then who would I." As he held her close to his heart.

As soon as they had all greeted Izuku, their attention turned to Fuyumi, who stood to the side, smiling shyly. The girls wasted no time in surrounding her, eager for details about the trip.

"So," Maki said with a grin, her arm draped over Fuyumi's shoulder, "how was it? Tell us everything."

Fuyumi blushed, her cheeks turning a deep shade of red. "It was… really nice," she said softly. "We spent most of our time in Kyoto. It was beautiful. Quiet, peaceful."

Rei's eyes lit up. "Kyoto? What did you two do there?"

Fuyumi glanced at Izuku, her smile widening. "We visited temples, took long walks, and just… spent time together. It was relaxing."

Kaina raised an eyebrow, smirking. "Just time together, huh? No other *alone* time?" she teased, causing Fuyumi's blush to deepen.

Momo giggled, leaning in closer. "Did he spoil you? Was it everything you hoped for?"

Fuyumi nodded, still blushing. "He… he really did. It was perfect."

The girls all burst into laughter, teasing her with playful pokes and jabs. "Well," Maki said with a grin, "Now you've set the standard, Izuku. We'll be expecting the same kind of treatment on *our* honeymoons."

"Can I expect to be a grandmother soon?" asked Rei, seeing Fuyumi act all bubbly.

Before Fuyumi could retort, Izuku said, "You sure can, I have made sure to knock her up, expect the good news in just few days,"

"Yayyy, Eri did you hear that, Fuyumi is going to be a mother, you will get a brother or a sister soon." Exclaimed Rei as she held Eri.

"I'll be getting a brother or sister? Yayyy I'll be a big sister now." Exclaimed Eri as she giggled happily.

"Heyyyy!!!!" Fuyumi yelled, however before she could finish Izuku said, "Also, I have few photos of Fuyumi enjoying her time, you would have never seen Fuyumi make the kind of face I saw her make while I spent "alone" time with her, I'll show you later on."

"Ara, seeing a look Fuyumi never made, that's definitely worth looking at, don't forget to show me those photos, okay?" Asked Rei as she was really excited to see Fuyumi's expressions.

"When did you do that, and no you aren't allowed to show them to anyone, I'll see them and decide whether you can show them or not." Fuyumi said as she ran behind Izuku to see the photos before anyone else, not wanting to embarrass herself.

As the teasing died down, Kaina's expression grew more serious. "We heard about what happened in Kyoto," she said quietly. "The incident with the kids and others… was that your doing?"

Izuku's face hardened as he nodded. "Yeah. It was us."

The room fell silent as Izuku said, "Fuyumi, why don't you take Eri and show her the things you bought for her," Fuyumi understood what Izuku meant as she took Eri and took her inside.

Once Eri was gone, Izuku began to describe what had happened. "They were experimenting on children, homeless and helpless." he said, his voice tight with anger.

"Forcing quirks into them, trying to make them awaken powers they weren't born with. Most of them… didn't survive. The ones that did were either too young to understand or too broken to speak."

The girls' expressions shifted to horror and sorrow. Momo covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide. "That's horrible," she whispered. "How could anyone do that to children?"

"They weren't just experimenting on kids," Izuku continued, his voice low. "Adults, too. Anyone they thought they could use."

Rei's eyes filled with tears as she gripped Fuyumi's hand. "I can't believe something like that was happening… and no one stopped it."

Izuku looked at them, his eyes softening. "I'm going to check up on them in Hiroshima. They're recovering, but they've been through so much. If any of you want to come with me…"

Before he could finish, all of them spoke at once. "We're coming," Momo said firmly, and the others nodded in agreement.
