The Outbreak

Realization

It had only been a few hours, but I was going insane. I tried to stay away from Bakugou, because no one but Uraraka knew we were dating. 

Though it was still morning and we were in class, I could barely focus. We were in training this time and Bakugou had decided to go against me like always, but I was lost in thought thinking what was going on and if everyone was fine. 

Suddenly I felt a stinging pain of warmth and noticed that Bakugou had used his quirk on me. Luckily we were in our own room, so he came to me and offered a hand.

"What is your problem, Blueberry?"

"Huh?"

He grabbed me by the face and I flinched, his hand touched one of the cuts and it stung.

"You need to snap the fuck out of your trance. You are making it too easy to beat you today."

I backed away because I just couldn't talk right now. I think he felt the vibes coming off, so he took his gauntlets off, and sat down next to me.

"Listen I understand you are worried about the whole situation, damn it I am to. But you need to focus on the shitty ass fight."

"..."

"Blueberry, come on. Stop doing this to yourself."

I stood up so abruptly that he was shocked. I started to walk out of the room.

"Where the fuck do you think you're going."

"I can't TAKE it anymore. I need to DO something. So I am going to look or explore outside."

"WHAT?!"

I didn't even say anything, and started walking out on him. He was startled and got up to come with me. When he touched my shoulder, I slapped his hand away.

"LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!"

I started to storm off leaving him stand there dumbfounded. I came to the entrance gate and started to climb it using my weighed down sweat as a sticky secretion on the wall. I reach the top and look down, carcasses of human bodies strewn about, and looks of sadness or terror frozen on their face.

I slowly slide down the side of the wall and go to the bakery, where a smell of freshly baked croissants in the air. Maybe Mom and Dad are alright!

I grabbed a few bags of pastries, and got three boxes of macaroons. Then I opened the door leading to the stairs of the apartment, but it wouldn't open. Something was blocking it and as I peered my head in, I was hit with a smell so powerful I ran and started to puke into a garbage can.

I was struck with reality and tears streamed down my face, I couldn't believe it. I wouldn't believe it. I said it was all in my head and wasn't real. But it was true and it was real.

My parents were dead.
