Thicker Than Blood (A My Hero Academia Fanfic)

You Can't Save Everyone

I woke up in a very bright blinding place. I stretched my arm out but it collided with a see through almost gel like wall. I tilted my head and poked it again. It wobbled and jiggled, then suddenly on the other side of the wall. A very familiar room appeared, a man hog tied on the floor was badly beaten. I looked to the door, it was me and cutthroat. He set little me down in front of the man and handed me a knife. No instructions, just silence. She pondered for a second unsure of what to do. She took the knife and started to cut the bindings off. Cutthroat observed and snatched her arm before she completely cut through the rope.

"Wrong," he warned and released her arm. She got nervous as she knew if she messed up again she'd be punished harder. She looked at the terrified man who was squirming trying to snap the part of the rope that had been cut partly. She saw his mouth was stitched up with wire. She gently grabbed his jaw and cut the wires to free his mouth. "Wrong," he smacked her across the face and she fell down. The kidnapped man started pleading and begging for his life. "If you don't shut up, I'll sow that mouth of yours up again," cutthroat threatened as he had the man by the throat. He let go and leaned against a nearby wall.

"Try again," cutthroat said to little me, she gulped. Her cheek now stained with a red handprint. The terrified man looked at the girl, pleading with his eyes. She took her blade and cut his arm. It wasn't very deep or large. Cutthroat said nothing, she continued. "More," cutthroat directed. Little me didn't want to do anymore and froze when the man started shouting again.

Cutthroat knelt down to her level. "You know what you must do. He can't be that noisy, he needs to be silent or the bad men will come," she nodded and at first tried to cover his mouth but that didn't work. "Please," she pleaded with the man quietly. "Be quiet, please," the man was hysterical and kept screaming. "Do it scarlet! He must be silenced!" All the shouting from both men made her snap as she took she knife and rammed it deep into the poor man's neck.

He squirmed and gagged on his own blood. Spitting some up on her clothes. Cutthroat petted her head. "Good," he praised. "Good,"
He turned and looked directly at me, smirking. "You son of a bitch!" I pounded at the invisible barrier. "Get out of my head! Face me like the man you claim to be!" I pounded on it more. I looked around and tried finding an exit then the events of why I'm asleep hit me. "Eri!! Mirio! Izuku! Nighteye! Uncle! I need to wake up!! I need to see if everyone's okay!" I started slapping myself to wake up. That didn't seem to work, please!! Please! I need to know!! Wake up body! Wake up! I finally started to become aware of sounds around me. A heart beat monitor, footsteps in the hallways, distant talking. Then the pain of my injuries crept in. Finally my eyes began to open. They felt so heavy, but I wanted to wake up. I needed to know what was happening. I blinked a couple of times at the ceiling luckily the lights were dimmed so I wasn't completely blinded.

I propped myself up a bit and extreme pain greeted me. "Fuck!" I cried. My ribs, left shoulder, and leg were begging me to just lay there. Unfortunately I'm too stubborn, I tried again. Hurt even worse this time. I looked around for a call nurse button. "I thought I heard your voice," I gasped and tried sitting up again. "Eraser— ah!" I cringed from the pain. "Relax," he gave me a small smile and sat on the end of the bed. "How are you feeling?" "Is everyone alright?" I asked, he chuckled a bit. "My question first," I sighed. "Fine," I said blankly waiting for his answer to my question.

"You didn't sound fine when you tried to sit up," he retorted. "My whole body hurts, there. Can you please answer my question?" I tried not raising my voice. Then I could see a familiar shadow behind the curtain blocking the doorway. "Ah Izuku!" I threw myself out of bed despite my injuries, uncle caught me before I completely hit the ground. "Midoriya, I said completely out of sight," Izuku came into the room, scratching his neck. "Sorry! Mr. Aizawa!" He bowed and I grabbed Izukus pants. "Please, tell me everything,"
