I Want It That Way

Author's Note: Hey everyone and welcome back to I Want It That Way! So I know it came as a huge surprise to have the "bond" between Shigaraki and Shouta. I have no clue if I stated it in my last author's note but this isn't a completed bond/mating. They have not had intercourse of any kind and Shigaraki only marked Shouta. Shouta DID NOT mark Shigaraki so the bond is not a complete one like the one Shouta had with Endeavor. So warning you now, this chapter gets dark and twisty really fast. We are picking up right where we left off but it will contain a time skip. So I'm combining the last bit of angst within this chapter and from than on I'm going to try and not go angsty again. It will still be slightly angsty cause Shouta has no memories right now.

Additional Notes: So I've been thinking and so this fic is missing four chapters between Shouta and Endeavor bonding to the court room chapter. What would you think if I went and rewrote it and added it in or put it in something like "I Want It That Way: The Missing Chapters" or something like that? Tell me below or hit me up on tumblr with your thoughts. My username on tumblr now matches my username here as phoenixtodoroki. Anyway, with all that being said, On with the fic!

Chapter Warnings: The normal throughout, Pregnancy Complications, Labor Complications, Blood, and Shouta is basically about to be put through hell. I will break off the scene if you don't want to see it (this will be broken off by two xx), C-Section without Medication

Chapter Sixteen: Just Hold On (by Louis Tomlinson ft. Steve Aoki)

Chapter Summary: Shoto meets up with Dabi at the cafe and leaves to go to the League's hideout. Meanwhile, the rescue operation team is putting together a plan and Rei figures out the missing piece. Later, complications arise with Shouta's pregnancy. Dabi and Toga are forced into an impossible decision. Stay behind and help Shouta or disappear with the League.

He knew that he shouldn't be doing this. He should of remained at the school and let the pro heroes do their jobs. But he had heard Aizawa's voice. That's all it had taken was hearing his voice. It wasn't much but it was enough to know it was him and he was alive. The pros were still at a dead end with where the League could possibly be. He just had to make sure that Aizawa and his pups were okay. Aizawa gave everything for him and his mother. The man didn't deserve any of this.

Shoto was quick on his feet as he rushed towards the location that Dabi had given him. Please, be okay, Shouta. I'm so sorry... Mom... Katsuki... but I needed to do this. I need to find him. He can't be alone in this. Shoto thought as he continued to run. It had only taken him half the time to get to cafe. He had been here before and one of those times had been with Aizawa. It was one of the man's favorite locations to go to but he highly doubted that's why Dabi had chosen that location.

He was breathing heavily as he finally got to the front of the building, holding onto the strap of his bag. He pulled his phone out of his pocket, checking the time. He had made it with just a few minutes to spare with the timeframe that had been given to him. He took a second to go to his contacts and send a quick message before locking his phone again.

"Little Shoto Todoroki." The voice sent a chill down Shoto's spine as he turned on his heel and came face to face with Dabi. The flame villain was looking down at him with a smirk settled on his face. "Well, lets get going. Give me your phone." The villain stated.

Shoto choked down the knot in his throat and with a shaky hand he handed his phone over to the villain. The villain started walking and Shoto fell in with his footsteps, his eyes lingering on the man for a moment. Dabi slipped the device into his jacket pocket before burying both hands within his pockets. "Dabi. That's your name right?"

The villain hummed in acknowledgement. "Thought that was obvious. You called by name on our call." Dabi retorted.

Shoto nodded. "Yeah, right."

"You must really care about him. You willingly are coming with a villain just to check on your teacher." Dabi stated as they rounded a corner. Shoto surveyed the area, he recognized it from the video of Aizawa's kidnapping. Probably about fifteen feet away from where they turned had been Aizawa's OB office. It felt odd to him that Dabi didn't have Kurogiri with them to warp them to where ever they could be hiding the League and Aizawa.

His eyes widened as it struck him. They didn't see Aizawa get warped away or even caught on another security camera. It could of been that he had been taken through a warp gate in the alley way but he had a gut feeling that wasn't the case.

Could they really be hiding him so close to the school? The teenager thought.

"You know, it's not hard to figure out bonds between people. If you know what you're looking for." Dabi muttered. Shoto gave him a questioning look but the villain didn't elaborate on the idea as they contiued down the alleyway. Dabi suddenly stopped and pressed against the wall, which opened up a door leading into a large apartment type looking building.

Now this is movie type stuff. The teenager thought as Dabi shut the door behind them. In front of him were five doors on each side.

"Before you ask any questions, since we don't have any intentions of letting you leave now. Each of these rooms belong to a member of the League." He paused, stopping at the fourth door on the right side. "The rooms on each side are connected together including a main living space through the door across from Tomura's. Basically we all have our own apartment. The kitchen and bar are in the living space. Each apartment has a bathroom of their own. Shouta stays with Tomura. I've been staying with him too since all of this started." He explained.

"This... is something." Shoto whispered, his hands so tight on his bag that his knuckles were pitch white. "What's going to happen with me?"

Dabi smiled at him. Actually smiled. A soft, gentle and non-threatening smile. "Probably end up with Shouta or in my room since I'm not actually staying in it right now. It's up to Shouta and Tomura." The villain replied.

"Up to Shouta?" The teen questioned. "Why would he have a say?"

Play dumb. You already know they probably effected his memories somehow. Try and get him to prove it.

Dabi didn't say anything to him. Instead choosing to open the door that belonged to Tomura. The little apartment was similiar to the dorms at U.A except slightly larger. A door was on the adjacent wall which probably lead to the bathroom Dabi spoke about. Shoto felt the air catch in his throat as he saw the figure of Shouta Aizawa sitting on the bed with a book in hand. It was clear to him that his stomach had grown. A lot. Instead of his five month bump he had been accostumed to, it appeared closer to an eight month pregnancy bump. His shirt was stretching over his swollen stomach and skin was peaking out from the bottom.

"Dad..." He whispered, the word causually slipping out like he had said it every day of his life.

Shouta looked up from the book, his eyes widening and the book slipping from his grasp. The black haired male slipped off of the bed and waddled as quickly as he could to Shoto. The teenager rushed forward. His arms wrapping around his adoptive father. "Oh my God, Shoto." Shouta muttered, pulling the boy as close as he could to himself despite the large bump between them. He ran his hand over the back of Shoto's hair, the teenager burying his nose over Shouta's scent gland. "My pup."

Rei had a bubbling nervousness and anxiety within her as she sat in the conference room. Enji stayed on the opposite end from her near Toshinori and Tsukauchi along with Midnight staying towards the middle of the room alongside Nezu. Hawks and Hizashi stayed on either side of her as they swapped over the information for probably the fifth time since she had arrived.

She kept replaying the video of Shouta's inital abduction. Something was off about the video. In the file, it also including nearby cameras from other stores in the area. Shouta never left that alleyway alongside Shigaraki. He could of been warped away but it could of been just as easy to warp him away in front of everyone instead of risking someone seeing a knife and trying to intervene. Even the warping theory felt off to her. Shigaraki made it clear that he was concerned with keeping the pups alive. Warping him away could put him at risk since it was technically quirk related activity happening over him. It seemed like the most plausible explanation to why Shouta hadn't been seen leaving the alleyway. It wasn't a very large alley and the building that was next to it was being renovated for a new apartment complex soon so it was closed off to the public.

Her eyes widened as she paused the video of them going around into the alley. It was a small glimpse but he could see Shigaraki's arm paused and a black cloth in his hand. They blindfolded him. Why blindfold him if you are going to warp him away?

"Hey, guys... I think I found something." She called out, gaining the attention of the rest of the room. It only took a moment for the other pro heroes and detective to gather around her chair.

"What is it, Rei?" Toshinori questioned.

Rei hummed. "So we've been thinking that the villain, Kurogiri, you said his name was... possibly warped Shouta away as soon as they got in the alleyway." She paused for a moment, pointing to the object in Shigaraki's hand. "Look at what's in Shigaraki's hand."

Toshinori allowed his face to break out into a grin. "That's a blindfold."

"Okay, he got blindfolded, why does that have to do with this?" Enji questioned.

Rei turned to face him, choking down the knot in her throat. Hizashi's hand slid onto her knee and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "Think about it Enji. If he got warped away, why blindfold him? It wouldn't make sense to blindfold him if you are going to warp him to the place he is going to be held."

Hawks' mouth dropped open before splitting into a smile of his own. "You smart, smart woman. We couldn't find Eraserhead on any of the cameras or any sign of him cause he never left the alleyway." The Winged hero stated. Rei felt her face flush as Hawks patted her on the back.

"There is an apartment complex there under renovation. They could of taken him in there before transporting him somewhere else." Tsukauchi stated, leaning forward with his hand braced on the table. "Moving him with his description sent to every police precinct and hero agency is going to be hard. They could still be hiding out there. I'll get some undercover officers to survey the area and see if they find anything. If they do, we'll move in." He stopped once more, looking down at Rei with a large smile on his face. "I think you just found the missing puzzle piece of this case."

Bakugou had an unsettling feeling in the pit of his stomach as he walked out of his dorm room the next morning. It wasn't often that he got this feeling but when he did, shit usually went down. He trudged his way towards the common room, ignoring everyone per usual as he made his way into the kitchen to grab some breakfast.

He gathered up what he wanted, turning back to the bar and placing it down. The blonde looked up, peering around the room that was now bursting with life. He had yet to see signs of Todoroki but he shrugged it off. Sometimes he went out for a morning run with Midoriya and showed back up with twenty minutes to spare before they had to be leaving for the classroom.

He pulled his phone out of his pocket, having not checked it since he had gone to bed the night before. Eating on the apple in his hand, he unlocked it and frowned seeing Todoroki's name on the screen with a message from the middle of the night. Todoroki usually never stayed up late.

IcyHot
I'm sorry, Katsuki. Please forgive me. I had no choice. Please tell my mom I love her and I'm sorry. I don't know what is going to happen but I needed to do this. I don't have much time but I got a call last night. It wasn't Shouta.
2:34AM

"What the fuck?" He questioned, his voice raising slightly. This caught the attention of some of his classmates who were nearby. It most of been the tone of his voice cause normally, they ignored him knowing his normal persona.

"Kaachan?" Midoriya muttered, the worry clear in his voice.

Bakugou turned to face is classmates, a glare leveled out. "Has anyone seen Shoto this morning?"

The others looked to each other before answering him back in a chorus of no's. He let out a string of curses as he marched out of the common room and went straight for the elevator. Midoriya and Shinsou followed closely behind him along with Kirishima as he stared at the numbers on the elevator door. It took a moment for it to ding, signifying that it had arrived. He rushed it, pushing the button to Todoroki's floor as the others flooded in behind him.

"Bakugou, what's going on?" Kirishima questioned as the elevator door closed.

Bakugou scoffed. "I don't know. Shoto sent a cryptic message during the night. I think something is wrong." He replied. Kirishima nodded.

"What did he say?" Shinsou questioned next.

"That he had no choice. That he had to do whatever."

The elevator door opened once more and the four rushed out, heading straight for Todoroki's room. Bakugou stopped once he noticed that Todoroki's door was left slightly cracked open. Like Todoroki had tried to shut the door quietly but the lock didn't stay shut. The Omega was notrious for making sure his room was shut. His room was his safe place that he barely allowed people into. The only three, aside from his mother and Aizawa now, had been himself, Midoriya, and Shinsou.

He pushed the door open and walked in but stopped short, seeing the chaotic look in the room. Todoroki kept his room spotless with the exception of his desk that was usually covered in school work and books. His dresser drawers were open and clothes were missing. His closest was also opened and empty hangers of the Omega's favorite sweaters and shirts were missing.

The Alpha walked further into the room, checking for anymore missing items. He was quick to note that Todoroki's phone charger was missing but his laptop remained. With the looks of the room, Todoroki had been in a hurry. The top drawer of the desk also remained open. He knew that the Omega kept family pictures in that drawer, some from his childhood and others that he had taken since he got to U.A. He knew at least a few of them had Aizawa and Todoroki together in them.

"What the fuck did you do, Shoto?" Bakugou muttered.

x

After the discovery of Todoroki being missing, the four reported straight to the teacher's lounge where they knew their interium homeroom teacher Midnight was along with the rest of the teachers who were working on the rescue operations. When they arrived, Midnight, Rei or in this case Frostbite, All Might, and Present Mic were in the room.

Rei smiled at them but her smile dropped within seconds when she saw the grim looks plastered on each of their faces. "What happened?"

Midoriya took charge, giving Bakugou a knowing look, "We think that Todoroki might of been contacted by the League of Villains... and left the school."

It had been three weeks since he had left the school. Dabi had been right when he said that he was most likely going to be staying in Tomura's room. Him and Shouta practically clung to each other with every waking moment. It didn't take Shoto very long to see the overprotective and mother hen nature radiating off of Dabi as the villain took care of Shouta.

Shouta's condition was gradually getting worse. The Omega could barely get out of bed on his own and whenever he finally did, he would let out small whimpers of pain with every step. His stomach had also grown even bigger, scaring Shoto as he noticed the very notable changes just overnight. Dabi had told him that he was under the influnence of a quirk that sped up the process of pregnancy under Shigaraki's orders.

It also didn't take him long to notice the bond mark settled on Shouta's neck. The gland completely swollen and almost bruised looking. Sometimes even oozing a clear substance from where the bitemarks still resided. The bite hadn't gone away like a normal bondmark would. The other League members didn't have to tell him who did it, it was Shigaraki. He knew that in his gut.

The villains had been oddly kind to him since his arrival. He also noticed how much they took care of Shouta whenever he needed something. The Omega had fallen with a fever a few days prior. It seemed like the only three that would really go near Shouta had been Shigaraki, Dabi, and Toga. Occasionally Kurogiri came into the room but the warp villain never said a word and left after a few moments of just staring at Shouta.

He thought of his mother ever since he had walked away. Her mental health had been fragile for so many years, he just hoped that this wouldn't break her. She was so strong and a new pro hero.

He had left clues behind and the message he had sent to Katsuki about his whereabouts. He barely had time to leave them before the time went out. He couldn't chance the League moving. It worked in their favor if Shouta remained close to U.A. He knew Katsuki would notifiy his mother and the teachers immediately of his disappearance with the message he sent him. He had kept it as cryptic as possible just in case if one of the villains decided to try and use his phone. He hadn't seen the device since he handed it over to Dabi.

Despite being a hero in training, he had been given free range of the hideout. The only difference to him compared to the others, he had no idea how to get out of this place. The door they had came through blinded in perfectly with the wall and he wasn't sure how to open it from the inside. It seemed like a one way door. There was no handle or indication on how he could open it. A foolish part of him believed that he would be able to somehow grab Shouta and escape the building before the villains realized it. The fatal flaw to that thought was Dabi. Dabi was practically glued to Shouta every moment of the day. Only when Shouta finally fell asleep, Dabi would leave to go do something. There was something so familiar about Dabi that he couldn't place and it terrified him even more.

In one of the few moments away from the villains, Shouta had told him what he had overheard the day before Shoto had arrived. Shouta's memories were gone. That was confirmed at least. According to his words, Shouta had been bonded with Tomura for whatever quirk they used on him for his pups. It almost seemed like they expected Shoto to join them since they had Shouta. He would play along. For now. It was only a matter of time before the heroes found them.

Shouta let out a blood curdling scream as he clutched at his stomach. Shoto felt his heart start to race as he ran forward and dropped to his knees next to Shouta, who had one hand braced against the wall. "Dad? What's wrong?"

Shouta was breathing heavily, the air coming out in pants as he leaned his forehead against the wall. "I don't know but something's wrong." He replied through the shakiness. The elder Omega wasn't wearing pants but was wearing one of Magne's shirts over his stomach.

Shoto moved his eyes up and down his adoptive father's body, looking for anything. He paused as he saw the mixture of a clear liquid and blood on the ground. "Dad..." He stood up. His eyes widened as he reached forward in attempt to help Shouta back to the bed.

The black haired Omega's knees buckled underneath him and he went crashing to the floor. The only thing keeping him up was the teenager clinging to him. "God, it hurts." Shouta hissed, his eyes squeezed shut.

Shoto let out a small gasp as blood started to pool underneath Shouta. Only one thing came to mind as he screamed out, "DABI! HIMIKO!"

The last three weeks had been absolute torture for Rei. What she felt in that moment only compared to when she discovered her eldest child's death. Touya. Her beautiful Touya. According to Fuyumi, it had been a quirk related accident sometime after she had entered the hospital. Her daughter didn't want to tell her in fear of another mental breakdown. She had barely managed to cling to reality then and now it felt like it was happening all over again.

Shoto was missing, presumed to have gone to the League. They had no concrete evidence that he did go to the League but with the message from him left on Bakugou's phone and the call supposedly coming from Shouta's phone. It had been the only information they had to him. Rei was the first to admit that her son would of gone willingly. Bonds between parents, even adoptive parents, were strong more so during pregnancy. She had seen just how effected Shoto had been when Shouta had been kidnapped. Her son would have done anything to make sure he was okay. It was almost comforting to know that Shoto might actually be used against Shouta but that would mean they would keep him alive. It also didn't make sense into why they would contact Shoto.

Tsukauchi had traced Shoto's phone and the gps had shut off about fifteen minutes away from U.A. Hawks had been the first to notice the location. The same location being where Shouta was last seen on a security camera. Looking at U.A. security cameras, he had went over the school barrier with his ice quirk with a bag over his shoulder. It didn't look like he planned to come back.

"We have to move quickly." Hawks stated. "I need you all with me on this. It's not just Shouta anymore. It's Todoroki. Rei, you'll stay by me. Endeavor and Present Mic will enter through the side door here in the alleyway. Me and Rei will go through the other entrance. We have to make this quick. Even if it's not silent. We have to move in now before they decide to move them both." He explained.

The room filled in agreement. "All Might. I want you there." Endeavor stated, catching everyone by surprise.

"What? I'm retired, I can't do hero work." Toshinori sputtered.

Endeavor nodded. "Just don't get in our way. If they really did do something to Shouta's memories. You are in a relationship with him. He might be more trustworthy of you. Mic will be busy working with me. They will probably warp out of there quickly but our only concern is finding Shouta and Shoto. Hawks' quirk will come in handy there."

"So, Rei is sticking with Hawks because she's new and he's going to be searching for them." Midnight confirmed.

"Yes, the police will remain outside surrounding the building as well as others going in with you aside from Hawks and Rei. We want those two to remain in the shadows. Both are small and have a non-threatening scent." Tsukauchi added. "We move now."

With that, rescue operations were underway.

It felt like a matter of seconds before the door was being thrown open revealing both Dabi and Toga. Dabi was the first to move out of the two, getting to Shouta's other side within seconds of his appearance. Dabi looked him over for a second before hauling the elder Omega up and hurrying towards the bed.

Shouta let out a gasp of pain as his back hit the bed. Dabi moved quickly as he pushed Shouta's legs up and part. "I'm sorry, Shouta but I have to do this." He muttered as he grabbed ahold of Shouta's undergarments and pulled them down his legs. Blood caked his thighs and poured out of his newlyformed birth canal. "Fuck." He looked up, turning his gaze to Toga. "Go get Kurogiri. Now."

Toga didn't hestitate as she shot out of the room and started down the hall, yelling out Kurogiri's name.

Dabi turned his attention back to Shouta, who was still letting out loud whimpers of pain every few seconds. Shoto was completely frozen next to them, staring in shock at them. The villain peered at him for a moment, "Go grab me some towels and warm water." He instructed, his voice softer than usual. Shoto still didn't move. "Shoto! Now! We have to move quickly." That seemed to snap Shoto out of whatever his mind was stuck in as he turned on his heel and went straight into the bathroom.

The villain pulled away from the bed, slipping off his jacket and throwing it to the side. "I'm sorry, Shouta but this is going to be uncomfortable." He muttered as he leaned back down onto his heels and reached forward. During the past month, he had read up on Omega pregnancies and how to assist if it came down to it. In that moment, he was glad that he had. He took in a deep breath as he felt his fingers slide into Shouta. Shouta let out a small distressed sound but didn't speak to him. He completely froze.

Shoto came back into the room a moment later with a bowl of water and towels toward over his arms. Toga followed not to far behind alongside Kurogiri. "Dabi, what's wrong?" Toga noticed immediately.

"We can't warp him to a hospital." Dabi whispered.

"What?" Toga questioned.

Dabi leaned his head against the mattress, refusing to move his hand as he managed to take pressure off of the pressed cord. "The pup is footling breech and I can feel the umilical cord."

Shoto almost dropped the bowl that he had in his hands as his eyes landed on the panting Omega. "What does that mean?"

Dabi looked up to him and sighed. "It means we have to get these pups out as soon as possible or they will die or all three of them will." He paused as he looked back to Shouta.

Shouta's eyes were locked on him through the pained expression on his face. "Dabi, you have to save these pups. You can't let them die." Shouta stated, grunting through the pain. "Promise me that you will do everything to save them."

Dabi bit his scarred lip but didn't reply. He didn't know how to. Tears sprang to Shouta's eyes as he let out another loud scream as a contraction ripped through his body.

"DABI! ANSWER ME!" Shouta screamed. "Do whatever you have too! Do not let my pups die."

Dabi nodded. "I promise." He paused, looking back over to Toga. "We are going to have to do this but none of us are going to like this."

Shoto finally placed the bowl down next to Dabi's legs, setting the towels next to Shouta. "What can I do?"

Dabi sighed, trying to process everything that he possibly could. "I need you to stay by him.. because the baby is crushing the cord... they are losing oxygen fast. We have to do a c-section." He stopped once more, cursing quietly. "Toga, go grab the smallest knife you have. Preferably one you haven't stabbed someone with. Kurogiri, go grab some alcohol. Whiskey would probably be the best." The villain now turned his gaze to Shoto. The teen shaking as he allowed Shouta to hold onto his hand. "Shoto, very carefully use your ice on his stomach. We have no pain medication. We didn't have the chance to go get it yet. So we are going to try and numb his stomach the best we can."

Shoto looked horrified as he looked between Shouta's swollen stomach and Dabi. "You can't be serious?! We can't cut him open! Not here! He needs a hospital."

Dabi leveled a look at him. "Shoto, there is no time to move him. We are wasting time just talking. Now do it or these pups are going to die."

Shoto gulped but nodded. Reaching out with his right hand, he gently placed it on the curve of his adoptive father's stomach and released his powers slowly over the skin. Shouta continued to let out whimpers of pain, biting his lip till it bled to keep himself from screaming out. "I'm so sorry, dad..." Shoto whispered, tears spilling over the rim of his eyes as he stared straight at the man. "Please hang on."

Toga ran back into the room, a knife and a bottle of whiskey in hand. "Dabi! The heroes are here. Kurogiri went to help the others escape. He'll be back in a moment." She exclaimed as she placed the items on the bed.

Dabi nodded. "You go, I'll remain here. If the heroes are here, one of them might know what to do."

Toga shook her head, only taking a moment to decide what she wanted to do. "You said so yourself that these pups need to come out. Shouta-san had been so nice to me. Didn't treat me like I was some monster because I liked blood. I want to help. He's one of us..."

Dabi nodded. "You sure?" Which the girl was quick to reply with a yes.

Toga turned her attention to Shouta's face before she looked at his neck. "Oh my god... his neck."

Dabi craned his neck to see blood pouring out of Shouta's bond gland, a small pool now on the bed. "God... fuck. Toga, in the top drawer is a needle full of bond breaking medication. Inject that straight into the bond gland. That's what probably started this shit. Do it now." He instructed.

Toga did as she was told, getting up and going to the nightstand. She pulled out the small needle and uncapped it. She stuck the point into the gland, bringing a hiss from Shouta as she injected the serum into him. "Shush, it will be over soon."

The heroes had moved in. Hawks and Rei were the last to move in, going through the opposite enterance that one of Tsukauchi's detectives had found while scoping out the place. Endeavor and Mic were at the front alongside at least two dozen police officers, already barging through the door in the alleyway. It had been smart. It was really hard to notice. It had taken days for the cops to find it because it was so concealed.

Hawks and Rei moved as quietly as possible. Rei had a bad feeling radiating over her as they moved through the back of the hideout. She could hear the fighting erupting before it had gone quiet not long after. "The warp villain?" She muttered.

"Probably. This place is pretty small." Hawks replied, staying just as quiet. His feathers flew around them, moving throughout the hideout.

A high pitch scream rang out near them causing both of them to look at each other. "That was Shouta." Rei stated. Before she knew it, her legs were carrying her in the direction the screams were coming from. Hawks fell in behind her.

She rounded the corner and stopped at the open door as cries filled her ears. Her heart pounded against her chest as she looked in. Shoto was standing beside the bed and three villains also were in the room. The one with the patchwork face had to be Dabi and the girl was Himiko Toga. The mist villain had to be Kurogiri. The four them surrounded a bed which she could easily spot naked legs between them.

"Shouta... Shoto..." She murmured.

Hawks pushed past her, rushing over. "Hold on!" He exclaimed, already assessing the scene ahead of him. "You have to be careful. What's going on?" The hero didn't seem to care that he was conversing with villains.

"We aren't sure but he's bleeding a lot. His pup is footling breech and I have my finger keeping pressure off of the cord but every time his womb contracts, I can feel it trying to squeeze it." Dabi stated, looking up to Hawks.

Their focus is only on Shouta. All of them. They are... helping him.

Rei jumped into action, moving forward and getting next to Toga. Her eyes landed on her son for a moment. The relief feeling her that he looked completely unharmed other than the obvious tear tracks on his face. She took in a deep breath as she pulled the end of her sleeves off of her fingers and yanked her sleeves up.

"We can't turn the baby without possibly injuring it or their sibling." Rei stated. She had given birth four seperate times on her own, she had done extensive research into pregnancies and their complications. "The blood could be from a placental abruption. I'm concerned about the cord. How long as he been like this?"

"Ten minutes at most. Right before the heroes showed up." Toga replied, her hand shaking with the blade in hand. Rei could smell the stench of alcohol in the air.

They most of done their research too. He needs a c-section immediately.

Shouta's stomach was completely soaked in the whiskey. Dabi's coat was thrown over Shouta's legs and private area to block it from view of the others. Dabi's face was concealed underneath but she could see the scars peeking out. Rei took a moment to look over to Shouta. His eyes were completely glossed over and he appeared to be completely out of it.

"He's lost a lot of blood. He's going to need a transfusion." Hawks stated, having leaned over and look underneath the coat. He growled as he looked back up to Shouta. "He'll bleed out before than."

Shoto finally looked up to them. "I could give him my blood. Toga's quirk needs blood for her to use it. I could use that and connect myself directly to him. It could buy us time." He stated, his voice wavering but sincere.

Hawks hummed, pulling off his gloves and jacket and tossing them to the side. He grabbed the open bottle of whiskey off of the floor and dumped it onto his hands. Flicking them to get the excess liquid off. "Do it. Toga give me the blade. We need to start or the pups are goners." Toga nodded, passing the knife to him before going through the door that was next to the bed that was connected to her room. A moment later she came back with a tubble and smaller version of her normal weapon. "Frostbite, as I go... I need you to use your ice powers to continually numb his skin. I'm guessing you guys didn't plan for this so he has no meds in his system." Which Dabi gave a confirmation too.

Toga hummed slightly as she rounded the bed. Shoto held out his free arm which the villain slid the small needle into his vein and connected the other end to Shouta's vein. Within seconds the blood was moving.

"He is going to need something to snack on or he will pass out." Rei said. Kurogiri was the one to move, warping out of the room and was back within a moment with a couple of cookies.

Hawks looked down at Shouta's stomach. "I'm sorry for this, Shouta." He whispered. Rei had her hands ready, placing her hands on either side of Shouta's stomach, gradually using her power at a slow rate. The Winged Hero placed the blade on the side of Shouta's stomach away from him. Shouta screamed out, his voice going into a silent yell as the blade sliced through the top layer of Shouta's stomach. Blood poured out over the cut, running down the swollen area.

Hawks moved as quickly as possible, cutting the layers of flesh as Rei continued to attempt to numb the area. Shouta's voice returned. His screams filling the room. "Toga, get that water ready for the pups. Is there something to wrap them in?" He questioned as he continued to work, his concentration still on the cut flesh in front of him.

He dropped the blade onto the mattress as he got through the layer to Shouta's womb, revealing the first pup. The Winged Hero reached forward, pulling Shouta's skin further away from each other. Shouta whimpered this time, his voice almost completely gone. Hawks refused to look away from Shouta's body as he dug his hands into the bloody mess, pulling out the first pup. "Dabi, you can pull your hand out now."

Once he got the all clear, the villain pulled his hand out as the first pup. A girl. Was brought into the world. Hawks untangled the cord. "We need to clip the cord off." Rei stated.

Toga rushed around the room, picking up a few hair clips off of the nightstand. "This is all we have." She whispered, handing them over. Rei nodded, taking them from her and placing one on the cord of the first baby. With the cord clamped, Hawks grabbed the knife he had used and cut the cord. Dabi reached over, taking the baby from the hero as Hawks turned back to Shouta.

The villain quickly used the bowl of water and one of the towels to wipe the baby clean of the blood and fluid. "She's not crying."

Rei pulled completely away from Shouta, moving around the bed until she was kneeling next to Dabi and the pup. She hummed slightly, spotting one of the tubs that Toga brought into the room but didn't use. She reached over and grabbed it. The Beta turned back to the pup, opening her mouth slightly and putting the tub into her mouth. Rei placed the other end of the tub into her mouth and sucked in. She cut off right before the mixture reached her mouth and pulled the tube from the pup's mouth. A second later the pup started crying.

She was quick the wrap her up into the towel as Hawks pulled out the other pup. A boy. And handed him off to Dabi. Dabi repeated the same thing he had done before with the girl pup. The boy was crying loudly as the villain was careful to clean him off before wrapping him up like Rei had done with the girl.

"Shoto, hand me those other towels. We need to pack him and get him to a hospital immediately." Hawks instructed. The teenager nodded, pulling his hand free from Shouta's and reaching for the towels that his mother held up. He grabbed them and quickly handed them over to Hawks who quickly stuff one inside of Shouta's stomach in attempt to stop the bleeding.

"You guys could of left him here but you didn't." Rei stated, looking over to Dabi.

Dabi hummed softly, staring at the little boy in his arms. "I couldn't. Even if I wanted too." He muttered, finally looking up and over to the woman.

Rei's eyes widened as she stared straight into the blue eyes of the villain. "Touya?" Despite his face being covered in scars, she could never forget what her boy had looked like. How much fire had been in his eyes. Kneeling beside her was Touya. Her dead son.

Dabi just smiled. "Hi, mom." He whispered.

"Kurogiri, you have to warp us to the nearest hospital." Hawks exclaimed, using his hands to hold Shouta's stomach closed. Footsteps rang out from the hallway and Hizashi, Endeavor, and Toshinori's voices rang out, calling for them.

Kurogiri nodded. "Take care of him." The warp villain finally said, a warp gate appearing next to them. "Dabi, Toga, we need to go." Another warp gate appeared next to him.

Dabi looked at his mother for a moment. "I'm sorry that you had to find out this way." He whispered as he handed her the baby boy. Rei was completely silent, her mouth dropped open as Dabi got up and disappeared into the warp gate next to Toga before all three villains disappeared.

The two babies cried in Rei's arms as she attempted to calm them, finally snapping out of her shock to care for them. "Shoto, how is Shouta?" She questioned.

"Awake." Shoto replied. She nodded.

At that moment, the other three came crashing into the room. Hizashi and Toshinori's gazes falling on Shouta. "We have to go." Hawks snapped. Hizashi and Endeavor were the first to move forward. Hizashi grabbed Shouta's ankles and legs while Endeavor grabbed his upper body. Carefully the two hoisted him up with Hawks still applying pressure to his abdomen. The warp gate was still open behind Hawks and carefully along with Shoto, they went through the gate.

"C'mon, Toshinori." Rei stated, getting up with the twins in her arms. Toshinori nodded, following beside her as they went through the gate as well. The gate closing behind them as they were now in a hospital.

"I need a doctor! Now!" Endeavor hollered.

Doctors and nurses swarmed around them. Shouta was placed on a portable bed, the makeshift IV line now being pulled away from both Shouta and Shoto. Shoto was given a piece of gauze which he put over the site of the needle. Hawks pulled away as a doctor took over for him and the Omega was swept away from them and towards the nearby operating room.

A couple of nurses came up to Rei and lead her to the nearby nursery. It seemed like Kurogiri had warped them straight to the maturnity ward. The babies were quickly taken and gone for their own tests. When Rei emerged from the nursery, knowing the pups were in good hands. She walked up to Hawks and threw her arms around him. "Thank you so much." She whispered.

He smiled at her as she pulled away. "Now, we have to wait."

"He'll pull through this. He went through the USJ and lived. He'll survive this." Hizashi stated, his arm over Shoto's shoulder, bringing the teenager close to him.

Rei took in a deep breath, running over to her son and pulling him to her. "Don't ever scare me like that again." She whispered.

"I'm sorry, mom." Shoto muttered.
