Ochako gets a phone call

A few days later, you wake up and get ready to go to class. You were still a little sore from the Battle Simulation from yesterday despite Recovery Girl healing almost everything. Getting dressed in your uniform you spotted the catalog with the Scarlet prices for the girls in your class. Remembering the tight and flattering hero outfits Ochako and Momo had, you briefly imagined rescuing them and ‘making sure they were okay’ before slowly stripping them of their outfits to check for injuries.

Shaking your head to clear the sexy image, you walked out to the living room to eat breakfast. Your mom was already setting your breakfast down when you entered.

“Say Izuku, are you making friends in your class,” she asks you suddenly. Look at her in surprise before answering.

“Yeah, Iida and Uraraka are great,” you say after swallowing your food.

“And Uraraka is the girl on the first page of the catalog,” she asks with an odd tone in her voice. “The page you have been leaving the catalog open to every night.” She finishes with a teasing smile.

“I-um-I,” you sputtler as you try to come up with an explanation.

“A mother knows Izuku,” your mom continues. “If you are not careful someone else is going to snatch her up before you know it.”

“I don’t even know if she likes me like that, we’ve only known each other a few days,” you finally found your voice. Inko gave a disbelieving noise before walking away. Seeing the conversation finished, you quickly finished eating before leaving.

“By law, if someone tries to run from the Scarlet Law, as heroes you will need to find them, bundle them all nice and tight and turn them in to be returned to their owner or owners for a proper spanking, those naughty girls,” Midnight explained to the class. “However if you can prove their owner is an unsuitable owner then the **** maybe be kept in a shelter until the owner is cleared, renews their license to own slaves, or they re purchased by a new owner who will give all the loving they need. Any questions?”

“How did you avoid being enslaved by the Scarlet Law?” Hagakure asked politely.

“Who says I did?” Midnight said before moving part of her sleeve to show a barcode. “I am technically owned by someone I know but he doesn’t care what I do most of the time. Most superheroines are owned by their hero organization until they earn enough money to have someone they trust buy them and allow them to have an independent organization. It is a tricky situation that we will cover more later this year.” Midnight then looked at the guys in the classroom. “Of course, I don't think these strapping young men wouldn’t mind owning your cute asses.” Some of the guys looked away from the girls with an embarrassed blush while others like Mineta and Denki openly leered at them. You noticed Bakugo evaluating the girls, likely trying to see if any would make a good addition to his future organization.

“The ninth hasn’t made a purchase yet, lets give him some motivation,” a mysterious voice said to an underling in a shadowed room.

“I will see it through,” another voice replied.

Soon after Midnight finishes her lesson the final bell rang signaling the end of day. Walking outside with Iida and Uraraka, you discuss the lesson.

“I don’t know what I would do if someone pays my Scarlet Price,” Uraraka says a bit nervously. “I want to be a hero so if they do buy me, hopefully they let me stay one.”

“You have great potential to be a hero Uraraka, if you’re bought I am sure they will see that,” you reassure as Ochako’s Price from the catalog pops into your head and you imagine buying her and potentially starting a hero organization together.

“UA will make sure that all their female students wind up where they can do the most good,” Iida promised. He was about to continue when Ochako’s retro phone started ringing.

“Hello? Mom?” She asked curious and a little concerned. You caught her phone as it slipped through her fingers as whatever her mom said shocked her.

“Uraraka!? Are you okay?” You asked in concern, she snapped out of it and grabbed her phone back.

“Are you sure? Could there be a mistake?” She said with tears appearing in her eyes. You shared a concerned look with Iida. “Wh-what can you tell me ab-about him? How old?”

“Uraraka, what’s going on?” But she is too focused on the call. Ochako lets out a little sob.

“How long do I have until I have to go?” She asks with resignation. “Okay… love you mom. Goodbye…” She hangs up the phone and is surprised to see our concerned face.

“Ochako, can you tell us what happened? Why are you crying?” You ask softly. Ochako started crying and surprised you by hugging your front and burying her face in your chest.

“Someone…someone bought me…”
