My Old Hero

168: The Rain

"Katsuki, Izumi's afraid of lightning."

Katsuki froze, when he realized that of course Izumi would be afraid of lightning. She was struck by lightning twice from her accident. 

"I'll find her!" he yelled and then hung up and grabbed his jacket and ran out of his agency. 

He ran all the way to Izumi's apartment, grabbed the spare key and unlocked the door to the apartment. He busted inside to see that no one was inside. 

'Shit!' he thought. 

He felt his phone buzz and saw it was a text from Emra.

I called Melissa and she told me she left work early just so she wouldn't get caught in the rain. 

'Then where did she go?' he thought.

He dialed a phone number and was sweating bullets at this point. The phone answered with a; "Hello?" 

"Mom, have you seen Izuku?!?!" He yelled. 

"Woah Katsuki, slow down! Why're you yelling at your mother?" Mitsuki yelled. 

"She's missing and I can't find her! Do you know if she's over there?" Katsuki said. 

"I just came back from Izumi's mother's house, she wasn't there. How could she be missing?" Mitsuki asked. 

"It's this fucking rain, she's afraid of lightning." Katsuki said. 

"What?!?! Okay, don't worry, me and your father will help look for her!" Mitsuki said and the line ended.

Katsuki ran to his place and searched his entire penthouse, but she wasn't there. He was going into complete panic mode, she wasn't answering her phone and certainly left unheard. 

'Where did she go?' he thought.

Katsuki ran through the rain and looked everywhere he could possibly think she would be, but to no avail didn't. His clothes were soaking wet at this point, but it didn't matter, all that mattered was that he found Izumi. 

He looked up to see Takashi running up to him. 

"Hey, Emra gave me a message saying Izumi's gone missing. Have you found her yet?" Takashi asked. 

"No, and she isn't answering her phone. I've looked everywhere for her." Katsuki said. 

Takashi could tell how worried and scared Katsuki's face was. Takashi rested a hand on Katsuki's shoulder. 

"Calm down, Katsuki. We will find her. Why don't you go home and get some rest? You'll catch a cold if you stay out here any longer." Takashi said. 

"But-" 

"Don't worry about us, we will find her." Takashi said. 

As much as he didn't want to quit, he felt the weather getting to him as he felt a strong headache coming. 

"Fine, let me know if you find her." Katsuki said, Takashi nodded.

Katsuki stumbled back home, clothes dripping wet and his hair was a watered mess. He took off his shoes and felt his eyes getting heavy. 

"Where are you, Deku?" he said. 

He was so worried that his chest started throbbing. 

As he was about to sit down on the couch, he heard the sounds of sniffling and whimpering. He looked around the room but didn't see anything, but once he aimed his head down to the floor, he could tell the sound got louder.
