Rewind: The Experiment (BNHA)

Part 10

(Third POV)

"The kids can't be quarantined to the hospital forever." The principal eyed Aizawa. "They both will be under your care for the mean time. If anything goes wrong with their quirk, you can erase it. I don't know how but those two have the same quirks." Said principal Nezu. Aizawa just nodded, secretly happy of taking care of Izuku and Eri.

He became close to them and had the urge to protect them ever since he started visiting both to the hospital. "They'll be under UA's custody for now. Mrs. Midoriya is deceased and Eri's grandfather is in a coma. They both have no other relatives. I have the papers ready Nezu." Tsukauchi said as he hands an envelope. "Then, this meeting is dismissed." 

Aizawa made his way to his class 1A. As the usual, entering with the students being energetic. "As you see, Kirishima is not here.. he's one of the most injured so he'd be gone until tomorrow probably, meanwhile, as we wait for him I want you to start preparing for the school festival. Think of what you want to do while I sleep." He went in his yellow sleeping bag as the usual.

But he wasn't really sleeping. Aside from secretly hoping his class would choose a cat cafe, he's also thinking about the two kids. He came to a conclusion that he needs Bakugou's help with Izuku. Then maybe if their quirk is figured how to work then maybe UA can start training them into control. Mirio in the end got shot though by a quirk destroying bullet by one of the LOV who happens to be there and escaped.

While they're finding something to fix that problem, Nezu decided Mirio will help out with taking care of the two. And so, both kids are being treated as to help their mentality somehow. Especially Izuku. Izuku have had more manipulation in his time there. Which is long enough to become damaging. Aizawa and Bakugou thinking how miserable the two are suffering those five years. Both knew they won't lose them again.

(Aizawa POV)

By next week, Eri and Izuku should be in UA. they'll be provided dorms with us teachers. Currently, I'm visiting the two along with Bakugou and Mirio. We requested a joint room for Eri and Izuku since one always ask for the other. And walking them back and forth from one end to another is sort of tiring. 

 "Bakugou you know what to do. No loud noises." I reminded him. I know he didn't need to be reminded again and again but.. just in case. I am actually glad Bakugou has this soft and quiet side on him. Mostly he's just angry... and.. well, angry.

We knocked on the door and it opened showing Eri. This girl loves opening doors for us. "Aizawa!!" She exclaimed with a smile. The other just greeted us with a nod. I'm worried most for Izuku because he hasn't smiled yet. Bakugou is trying his best and so is Mirio.. but he seems haunted by the things that happened to him. Well, he does smile but, it was no more than three seconds. To me, it looks forced somehow.

"Hello Eri. Hello Izuku." The other two went in behind me. "Izuku.. how are you..?" Bakugou asks gently as he sat beside Izuku and held his hands. "Kacchan.. I- I'm good.." he answered. I would be lying if I say I didn't see any improvements since they were awake. They were isolated and only see doctors and nurses for a while but it's good to see that he's more stable than before visits are allowed.

Doctors and nurses made sure to teach him that he doesn't need to repay Overhaul with anything. Apparently, Izuku believes that the experiments and behaving quietly like how Kai wanted it was  a way to repay them. Tantrums does happen ad this leads to quirk accidents. Temporary quirk cancelling drugs was found in his system so I think I know how Kai deals with this without getting affected by it. Eri however, knows how to start her quirk but doesn't know how to stop it. 

Nezu found an idea how to train them. However, I'm curious on the difference of their quirk. They couldn't be completely the same. Fortunately, that information would be answered by one of the Yakuza. Hari Kurono. Reports say that he truly cares about the kids but Overhaul is still his boss and he's loyal to the Yakuza. The least he could do is play and look after the kids properly and caringly despite Overhaul's experiments. Somehow, Kai Chisaki noticed this and limit his job to take Eri and Izuku in the experiment room so they could continue liking Hari. He is willing to say about Eri and Izuku's time there and their quirk specifics. 

I sighed at the information. 'well, at least he's willing to do this.' 

"Zawa..?" Eri called before she took a bite from Mirio's apple gift. He sliced them to bunny shapes. I wonder if you could shape them into a cat?.. anyways, I gotta get used to 'Zawa'. "Yes Eri?" She looked down on her lap. "Will we stay here forever?" 

"No Eri.. you  would be under our care in UA." I see Izuku looked to me. "with Kacchan?" He asks. "Yes nerd." My blonde student said. The kid hugged Bakugou. I can say he is childish for his age. Not that I would complain. The Psychiatrist that handled them did say that Izuku had the mentality of a ten year old due to the manipulations and beliefs he is set upon by Overhaul. Then again he is small for his age and just makes him more precious as a cat. Don't complain my comparison, cats are basically gods to me.

Earlier I received another file from that psychiatrist. I was curious on how Eri and Izuku feel about their quirk. Last time, I heard Izuku mumbled something about missing the days he was assumed quirkless. Eri seemed down too whenever we talk about her quirk. So I requested them to ask questions about it. Reading the file now as Mirio tells Eri about his friends and Bakugou comforting the green haired, It does seem they see their quirk as a curse. However they don't know if it was because of their personal thinking or influenced by Overhaul too. Well, we have all time to learn about that. For now, let me influence the two in liking cats by taking Katsuki and Togata out the room.
