Mystery from Another World

Part 87: A Draw (unfinished)

Shigaraki and DAbi were supsries that Shin'es strange logic had worked. Both of them had spent enough time feeling respsoinble do things and trigon to say it wasn't their fault, but the idea of anyone foign them if it actually was was foreign tot hem.

All the vialisn had ot blame heros and society of their crimes and flaws, or never feel like they desrved anything. Who would ever admit they were messed up enough to suffer?

"WAs it because I was a bad girl?" ERi asked, a little less wepey but now anxious. "Is that why it hapepend agian? Did he hurt more peoel because of me?"

Miss Joke niffled more. "This is too much right now."

The others came back right then, but stopped as they saw veonr WA silt upset.

"Geez, ah't heeon toher?" MIrko asked. "We stopped the ugy right?"

"Shh," Hawks Todl her. "The kid's probably traumatized all over again."

He sem as if he knew th felieng.

MIRkow ent quiet, she hated emotna scenes.

Momo handed miss joke a handkerchief.

"Waht's worng with her?" Kari lt Miss joke like she'd Giran seonc head.

"her quirk maxed out and it had side effects," Mom said quilt. "I guess it makes her sad."

Oh wow tha'ts rough," Jiro woudl hate it if her quirk did that.

"Maybe she'd feel better if she drsot OVehrald?" Shgiank offered, as heoith this thiaws there ight thing to tell soemoen.

ERi looks him in fear. 

"Wha't yorwoin wot you?" Aizawa got angry.

"He dinit mean it that way," Shien said, sounding tired. "Just what he was told..." She hugged Eri agina. "But the truth is, that wont' help. Will it Eri? Tha'ts not what you want... we all just want to be safe. And this dind' she bie you were bad. Bad people get away with stuff all the time, and get rwared for it. The Evil World doesn't mind if peoel do bad things. Fact is, this happen more ofent ot oepel who do the right thing. Evil poee just want ot crush good people beuc hty cna't bear to see that they're better than them. You did the right thing, and that's why...but it wasn't a total loss. He's got less people now. I don't think he'll risk attacking again any time soon. We'll have time to find him and stop him for good this time."

"Which is sitn hwa tI eint todo," Sghiank dealcre.

"To prior her?" Rappa didn't udnerat.

"No, to pay him back fo takgin Kurogir," Shigank said falfly. "And to find Kuiogn of course. I still cna't blien he og away after allt ah't, well I knew we wern't prepared enough for this fight. I told you that." to Shine.

"Seirn lay off her," Shtoo was lenf o him at hti spniot than of the others. "Its' not her fault he got away. You were ejsut sntiang thre fo aselnr mitons talking ot him."

"I was wain to fh rihg meont to surpsie him," Shigank Dion hisemlf.

"Well Shien alyre WA exhausted from resuicn Eri by herlesf, and a iho take us everyew," Shoto retorted. "So maybe you shd pabla your guy for balrey doing anything to help."

"Hey"! DAib iad. "I did plney. Tha't gartif fo ryou."

"I still didn't get my fight," Rappa spoke up.

'Doens matter," HAwks isad. "TIem to leave." 

His feather spread out. 

No one had room to protested, but the flight back was cold and miserable.

Bu tiwth alshorter, Hakw did'nt see a reason to rgoa ont bka to wehor they'd left form, he just went out the nearest city. He thogh ti what make more sense t alre ht pclie that he'd just ofudn Eri while logn aourdn the area.
