Asa cut the television off leaving Izuku to stare blankly at a black screen.

"Izuku?"

The greenette was deathly pale, eyes glued to the now black screen. Yuma and Eijiro were over by the kitchen waiting to see how the boy would react. Asa could already see and hear the choppy breathing of his son. "Izu-" the boy suddenly turned and bulleted to the front door, checking the lock. Asa moved out of the way as Izuku rushed past, checking the windows and drawing all of the blinds shut. His movements were erratic and clumsy as the panic attack took its course. Asa tried to reach out to Izuku but the boy just weaved around him and moved onto going down the hallways. Asa turned to Yuma. "Take Eijiro to their room please." The redhead frowned but knew better than to argue with this. Yuma nodded and they left just as Izuku was coming back and going for the other side of the house. It was only then did Asa realize that Izuku was also turning off all of the lights.

Asa waited until Izuku came back into the living room looking around frantically for him to make a move.

Izuku sat on the couch and pulled out his phone, using his hand to hold it and teeth to pull off the back. With a shock Asa realized he was trying to hack into the phone, make it untraceable. Asa slowly crouched before the boy and placed a hand over his son's. Izuku jolted at the sudden contact, head snapping up.

Asa reached up with his other hand and pulled Izuku's head down to rest in the crook of Asa's neck. He took Izuku's hand and placed it against his own chest so that the boy could feel his steady heartbeat compared to his own rapid one. Izuku's breath stuttered as he choked on a sob, hand clutching Asa's shirt.

"D- D- D- Dad, sh- she's- she i- is-"

"Shh..." Asa ran his hand through the curly locks. "I know Izuku, I know. She can't find you though. She doesn't know where we live." Izuku shook his head, pushing back. "Sh- she w- w- will!" A pain and fear Asa hadn't seen in a long time aside from nightmares reappeared in those green eyes. "Sh- she can'- Sh- she won't- I c- c- can't-" Asa tried reaching for him again but Izuku flinched back, curling in on himself, pulling at his hair.

"N- not again!" he wailed. "Wh- why?! Wh- wh- why d- does she k- k- k- keep coming?!"

"Izuku-"

"Not safe!" the boy cried out. "N- n- not safe anaemore! N- n- not safe! Sh- she's coming! Sh-"

*DING~ding~Ding~DING*

Both froze as the doorbell rang. Asa's head snapped to Izuku. "Izuku, wa-" The boy was already moving. Asa cursed but also thanked the child locks on the knife drawer as the panicky Izuku fumbled with it in erratic state. "Izuku you need to calm down," he pulled the boy into his arms. "No!" the boy screamed. "Sh- she's coming! Sh- sh- she's here!!!"
