Little bit angsty but eh, whatever. I found the above song and absolutely love it *

Katsuki woke with a silent scream on his lips and immediately sighed out a breath as he scanned the room. He was in his brother's bed. The dark room being lit in the usual blue light from the TV. He stayed there in the warm blankets for another few minutes, simply thinking and breathing.

It hadn't even been a full month since he decided to stay. He wondered what happened at Yuuei. They must be happy that he had 'died'? Perhaps they threw a party, or got the day off from work. Maybe All Might finally started being serious with the class training. Maybe... Maybe his teacher had been happy. He wasn't a good kid after all. He didn't need mother to know that.

Katsuki got up and made the bed. He picked up the legos still on the floor, tossing them into the bin and left the room. On the way to the bathroom, he found the thoughts getting louder and louder. He really was a nuisance. They probably only kept him here because they had to now. He wasn't of any real use. Yuuei was better without him. Everyone was. He had killed his mother. She would've lived a happy life if he hadn't existed; if hadn't been such a horrible kid.

He sat on the toilet lid, wiping at his eyes. Why was he such a bad kid? Why? Why, why, why? What was wrong with him? He didn't understand. What happened? Nothing bad had ever been done to him without reason. He deserved it. So why was he upset? He was fine.

Nothing made sense. Why was he going to be a hero, anyways? Everyone always hurt him. He didn't even like most of the heroes. They were mean and selfish. They never came to save him from Mom. His big brother had, though. He'd saved 'Tsuki too. His big brother had saved him. Big self and little self.

Katsuki's heart hurt, his chest felt tight and restricting. He couldn't breathe in. Why couldn't he breathe in? He didn't want this. It wasn't safe. He moved and sat in the bathtub, the curtain making himself feel safer. At the same time, he also felt trapped. Nothing felt right. He wanted his big brother. He wanted his dad. He didn't like this.

Nothing felt right. He wanted his dad. He wanted Shigaraki. He'd take Dabi too. Anyone here, really. He just wanted someone. Please, it hurt.

Tomura had this sense for when his little brother was in trouble; Magne had called it the brotherly link between them. He seemed to be the only one to have it. It was almost a passive quirk, always making him feel uncomfortable when Bakugou was upset, regardless if he knew or not. He didn't think that the teen's father even had the sense. Perhaps he should talk to Sensei about that...

And now? Well, he felt uncomfortable now. So he jumped up from the stool and started walking out of the bar. The other members, including Masaru at this point, were far too accustomed to him walking out that they didn't pay much attention. That is, until Magne spoke up.

"Is something wrong?" Heads turned to him and he frowned, scratching at his neck.

"I don't know" He honestly responded and turned to go find the teen. Compress was about to follow but he heard Spinner saying something about not needing to 'send a whole ass army' to help. Tomura first checked his room, where the teen had been sleeping from the whole gaming marathon from the previous night. It was empty, the bed was neatly made. No sign of the kid. He went and checked the kid's room.

Nothing.

There was a growing sense of worry blooming in his chest, pushing uncomfortably against his ribs. Where was the kid? He paced the halls, checking every room that was unlocked. Not in Compress's. Not in Dabi's. Not in Toga's. (There was too much pink in her's, his eyes hurt now.) Spinner, Kurogiri, and Magne's rooms were locked, no way of the kid getting in there. He was headed for Twice's room but stopped at the bathroom. The light's were on.

"Bakugou?" Tomura hesitantly called, knocking lightly on the door. "You okay?"

*The theories and lore behind the song are crazy cool!! (It's kinda dark, but that's the best part). The song itself is catchy, but not too catchy. If it's in my head, I'm happy with that. I don't remember how I found the song... Maybe it was in my recommended?
