Me and this guy Deku, running to the scene, finally arrived and I was horrified by the sight of what was actually happening.....

The explosions and debris.....
It all was happening.... because of Bakugou...

The ground didn't look like the ground anymore... just rubble. Smoke in the air and fire caught on most buildings, not one citizen in site... in the middle of all this... was just him.
He stood in an intense stance, bomb-like fire in his hands, and sweat drips from his face and body, only feeding his explosive quirk even more.
"Just stand back! Don't worry Leah, I can help!" This Izuku kid yelled at me as he ran towards this bomb man.
"Deku don't !" I warned him, underestimating him..... not even knowing what he was capable of.
He took a few strides, and jumped into the air, giving off his super charged quirk.
Bakugou turned around quickly and looked up at him.
"DEKU....." he growled.
I guess out of pure annoyance.... he threw an explosive ball at him, but Deku managed to dodge.
Deku reached him, and when he did, he was able to get behind him, giving him enough time to grab and pull him down..... but Bakugou's physical strength was too strong for little Izuku.
A quick whip around and grab to the throat, he slammed Deku down into the concrete.
"It's over for you, you damn nerd!!"
Of course I had to stop this, so I picked up a rock and ran over to them. When I got close enough behind Bakugou, I took the rock in my hand and threw it as hard as I could at him. Yes, I threw it at him......knowing that a rock could hurt someone.....but Bakugou.... isn't just someone, it would take more than a rock to hurt him.
The rock flew in the air and hit Bakugou in the head pretty hard. He didn't budge.
He didn't react by the rock, but by my presence.
He slowly turned his head towards me, with a look so intense that if I didn't care or think about him enough, he would be unrecognizable....that's how intense he looked.
It took only a second to identify me, then his eyes got softer, and he loosened his grip a little on Deku, not enough to let him breathe though.

"You-" he started, but as he did, I began to walk towards him, I wasn't afraid of course. I know him enough to believe that he wouldn't hurt me, I don't know about everyone else though.....poor Deku was struggling to take a breathe, so I questioned my belief.
I stood right in front of him.
Face to face......only inches away.....

Once again we were so physically close, I felt safe enough to reach out my hand......a small flinch from him at first but he let me. I felt the sweat and dirt on his face. And I could feel the heat from his cheek, it was like he was boiling, almost to hot to even touch. It was impossibly unnatural to have such a high temperature.

He was huffing as if he was out of breathe.... he was.....exhausted actually. But in this moment, he didn't care how hot, sweaty, dirty, or tired he was.....he just starred into my eyes and my hand was still on his flushed cheek.

I spoke........."Why are you doing this......"

He then immediately let go of Deku.....
Deku gasped for air desperately.

"Why the hell do you think......" he said coldly yet softly.

Putting both of my hands on the sides of his face I said:
" It was not that big of a deal......"

"For someone with a quirk like mine.... it IS a big deal..... look around, this kind of damage.......from MY quirk...could kill the whole city....one small burn that you think isn't a big deal......could lead to a destruction just like what I did to this damn city!!"

A brief moment of silence........

"Bakugou....... this... is only something you can control.... they're are people who have no control over their quirk.... but YOU do have control. You just need to understand that you have a choice......to be the hero and good person you think you can't be..... trust me... you are a good...... you just have to wanna be that person enough, attempt to try, you can do it I know you can, not for me..... but for yourself."
The silence was real.
I was now in a embrace..... I don't know how it happened, I didn't even realize it until I finished my encouraging speech.
He didn't say anything...... he just held me in this hug. I wrapped my arms around him and squeezed him tightly and just whispered "I believe in you..."
he buried his face in my hair....
But we were interrupted......
"Bakugou and Midoriya...."
A tall and lean rugged man with long black hair stood before us....
Deku gasped in fear.
"Uhh-umm MR. AIZAWA!!"
