~1-week later//Saturday~

Izuku was running as fast as his small legs could go. He tripped over a rock quickly pulling himself up. He glanced back to see the taller figure was closer than he thought. The strong smoke smell hit him like a truck. His eyes widened as the tree before him burst into flames. He pushed himself forward sliding across the ground, nearly missing the falling tree.

I can't die. I can't die. I can't die. I don't want to die. I want to be a hero. I want to be like All Might. I just want to help people. Why is this world so cruel?

Izuku abruptly stopped as panic started to consume him. The wall of fire before him towered over his tiny body. Izuku quickly turned around to face the angry man before him. Izuku saw his new friends behind the cruel man. He reached out to grab their hands only for them to burn away. He sank to his knees as tears poured from his eyes. His mind went blank as the man reached for him.

"Did you think I wouldn't find you? Stop trying to be a hero, everyone hates you! You're useless, weak, a burden and you know it!" The man laughs smoke coming from his mouth.

"You don't think I know that? Of course, everyone hates me. Even I hate me! Please just kill me already...I don't want to hurt anymore." Izuku cried finally giving in.

"Are you sure you want to be alone on the other side?"

Izuku quickly sat up, his entire body shaking, the boy now covered in sweat. The smoke smell still lingering in his nose made him nauseous. Izuku quickly looked around in terror noticing he was alone in Tokoyami's room. He quickly jumped out of the bed his legs failing him. He ignored the immense pain he felt dragging himself into a corner. He pulled his legs to his chest, tightly hugging himself.

Alone. Alone. Alone. I'm all alone. They're gone. Gone. They left me. Everyone leaves me. Come back. Why am I remembering this now? Please. Please. I don't want to be alone. Stop. Stop. Make it stop. It hurts. It hurts. It hur-

Izuku was surrounded by familiar warmth pulling him out of his dazed state. He blinked a few times noticing the two boys, and shadow, in front of him with worried looks. Izuku didn't even think before he lunged at the boy closest to him, Tokoyami, hugging him tightly.

The taller boy stumbled in surprise supporting both their weights. Kaminari moved slightly catching Izuku's attention. He grabbed onto the electric boy latching to him for dear life burring his face into Kaminari's chest.

"Midoriya? Are you ok? What happened to the bed?" Tokoyami asked confused but mostly concerned.

Izuku looked up at the boy tilting his head confused.

"We heard you scream," Kaminari looked away "and there's um....that" he pointed to the bed.

Izuku glanced around Kaminari's frame, his eyes landing on Tokoyami's bed. The entire bed and wall where he had slept were badly burned. The entire bed and floor around the bed were covered in white ash. Kaminari noticed the boy started to shake harshly and tightened his grip to prevent him from falling.

"Midoriya, are you ok?" Tokoyami asked panicked.

Izuku shook his head no, not wanting to lie to the only people who seemed to care about him. Kaminari and Tokoyami shared a look not sure if they could help. They seemingly came to a mutual decision and nodded in unison. Tokoyami grabbed Izuku's Favorite hoodie, the one from Kaminari, helping the boy put it on. Kaminari then picked Izuku up carefully noticing him wincing.

Izuku wrapped his legs around Kaminari's waist, then wrapped his arms around his neck. None of them seemed to care about the position too much. Izuku would wince and jerk harshly whenever Kaminari moved a certain way. The two boys got a better look at Izuku's current state panicking. The trio quickly left the room, entering the elevator, as Tokoyami messaged Aizawa.
