Hands grasped each other tightly, one seemingly lifeless while the other raged with emotion. "Come on Brat... how long are you going to stay asleep." Soft sobs came from a middle-aged woman her hair ash-blond, red eyes filled with tears.

Mitsuki Bakugou gripped the hand she was holding tighter, her stare directed to her only son, Katsuki Bakugou. The boy still had not woken up from his coma, his body was almost entirely covered in a thick cast, a plastic tube attached through a large hole in the boy's throat. Although their relationship wasn't the best Mitsuki loved her son, seeing him in such a state had left her devastated especially after she had heard who had caused such injuries.

As long as she had known Izuku the boy was all smiles, he didn't even look like someone who could willingly commit acts of violence. Now she didn't know what to think all she could do was hope Katsuki woke up soon. "Masaru what do we do?" Turning to look at her husband she saw the man's face like a mask of sadness.

Rubbing his hand on his wife's back he could only sigh, "I don't know honey, the doctors said it could take months maybe even years all we can do is hope." The two sat in the silence of the hospital room. They felt helpless, seeing that they couldn't help their son had left them in a state that no parent would wish for.

Other than the few sniffles from Mitsuki and the beeping of the various life-support machines hooked up on Katsuki there was little noise. Sitting there it was only when Mitsuki's growled that they realized it had been a while since they have last eaten anything. "Hey, why don't we get some food."

"But what about Katsuki?" Mitsuki hesitated at Masaru's suggestion, the last thing she wanted was to miss Katsuki waking up. She feared what would happen if he were to suddenly wake up only to see that they weren't there.

"It'll be fine, you need something to eat, we won't be gone for long." After some light pushing from Masaru Mitsuki finally agreed to leave. Getting her purse Mitsuki and Masaru exited the room, since there was a devastating storm they would only go to the hospital cafeteria for now. They had no complaints about this as it allowed them to stay close to their son. After leaving the room the two parents walked down the hall passing by a nurse. The man's face was covered by a white mask, his hair completely black, nothing about the man was unordinary but a chill ran down Mitsuki's spine nonetheless. She only got a small glimpse but the man's eyes looked like he was ready to kill.

Banishing the thoughts from her mind she did not see the nurse she just passed by entering the room her son was residing in.

The nurse walked in locking the door behind him as he stared at Katsuki, the nurse walked forward until he was at Katsuki's bedside. Suddenly a black mist covered the man's body, ripples echoed throughout the mist. Like a still lake disturbed by a rock being thrown in the water, the man's body became distorted before the mist faded away.

"So this is what you've been reduced to, it seems that even Recovery Girl's healing couldn't heal you properly..." Lucifer reached to take his mask off a large psychotic grin spread across his face, "Such a shame!" Grabbing one of the seats laying around Izuku moved it before sitting down at Bakugou's side his wings folded on his back.

"You know I saw your parents outside, it seems to me that they love you. I cant understand why they would love someone like you but to each their own." Sitting back Izuku propped one leg on top of the other, "You know I want to share something with you... as a kid, I truly was envious of you seeing your parents again made me realize that part of me still is. You had everything I wanted and were everything I wanted to be, a strong quirk, a loving family, friends, and popularity, but most importantly you had a chance. You could have been anything you wanted to be, you had a choice to become an egotistical bastard, you had an opportunity to become one of the best. I can't let these feelings of resentment, envy, and anger cloud my judgment anymore. I thought beating you would alleviate at least a portion of these emotions but I realized that I can only one thing could satisfy me." Standing he placed his hand on Katsuki's chest, "You along with the others took my entire childhood away from me, you dragged my name through the mud, hurt me in more ways than possible, so ill take everything from you. Your quirk will become mine, your reputation will be tarnished, and your body will forever be broken."
