When the fighting ceased and the war was officially considered over, all heroes were checked and tended to. Afterwards, the students were given the go-ahead to return to their families but most of the students of Class 1A and B wanted to reconvene at the dormitories to check on their classmates first.
The class of 1-B had tearful and heartwarming reunions with each other, but silently worrying for everyone they had yet to see after a period of time. Logic said that the few might still be in the hospital or had returned to their families after all. Koromi recalled Kendo and Fukidashi together after everything ended, and Awase and Tsunotori joining the group- and that was the last she saw of the four of them, but they looked okay. Shoda decided to text Kendo to put all their worries to rest, but was left on delivered.
Most of them decided to stay at the dorms until they got confirmation of the safety of their missing classmates, which took hours. Kuroiro appeared suddenly and explained he was with his family and was checking up on everyone, before returning with his sister to the temporary living quarters of their family.
After a few hours without word from about six of Class B’s students, the doors to the dormitory suddenly opened, and six figures walked through- four of their classmates, and 2 familiar Pro-heroes: Mt. Lady and Present Mic.
Fukidashi announced he was going to his dorm room and walked away with barely having changed his shoes. Awase and Kendo seemed ready to join him, but decidedly didn’t, and Tsunotori was staring off into space, making a hole in the ground with her gaze.
“Hey!” Tetsutetsu started. “Glad to see you guys are okay!”
“What’s Mt. Lady doing here?” Togage meant as a whisper but was louder than she intended.
Present Mic took it as an opportunity, “Mt. Lady helped me gets these kids home from the hospital… and also to help me share the news on your classmates conditions.”
Everyone tensed at that and Shoda did a mental count on all his classmates. Excluding Kendo, Tsunotori, Awase, and Fukidashi, who were all now accounted for, the only two he hasn’t heard anything from is Shiozaki and Monoma.
“Miss Shiozaki had breakage in her leg that will take a while to heal, but she will be expected to make a full recovery.”
Everyone took a sigh of relief at that, but took notice to Kendo, Awase, and Tsunotori’s still miserable expressions.
Tsunotori had made her way over to where Honenuki sat on the couch and stood next to him, clinging onto his shoulder and arm, trembling. Her melancholy, practically heartbroken look, left the surrounding classmates tense for the last of the news.
Kendo shot her head up and took a deep breath, but nothing came out of her mouth for a second. “M-“ a hand jumped on her shoulder and she quickly looked to her left where Mt. Lady stood, who placed her other hand on Kendo’s other shoulder to turn the student towards herself.
“You don’t have to be strong right now,” Mt Lady whispered, “let the adults handle this.” The two stared into each other’s eyes for a moment before Kendo rushed into an embrace with Mt. Lady, holding tightly and not letting go. She cried no tears but her eyes were squeezed shut and she didn’t move.
Present Mic and Mt. Lady looked at each other for a moment before the giantess hero spoke up, still holding Kendo with one hand holding cradling her head.
“Monoma was stabbed on the battlefield which hit in-between his ribs and pierced a lung.” there were several gasps and hands flew up to mouths “-he also suffered a traumatic brain injury.” There were a few beats of silence: the classmates of 1-B processed that information and the heroes figured out what to say. “It was a miracle he lived through the ride to the hospital, but he lost a lot of blood.”
“But he's okay?” Kodai asked.
Present Mic continued what Mt. Lady was saying, “The doctors said he died at 16:13, about 3 hours ago.”
Most of the few students who were standing sat down on the couch or dropped to the floor. Dead? Monoma? No…
“What?” Komori's brittle voice echoed like a pin dropping.
“There’s no way… right?” Tetsutetsu was the quietest he’s ever been and his voice broke at the end.
“I’m so sorry.” Mt. Lady whispered.
Hokenuki looked up at Pony, who was still clinging onto his arm. She was biting her trembling lip looking like she was trying hard to not cry again. Suddenly his sight of her got blurry, and the ceiling started to rain.
