Minutely Hero (Bakudeku)

Izuku tried to shout for the boy to stay away, but no words left his mouth, he squeezed his eyes shut. Not wanting to see the horrified look on his friend face as those naiive lavender eyes took in the cloaked yokai's morphed body. 'And...I was the one who-'

Choked out sobs could be heard in his ears, he didn't notice that the one who was in frenzy was him not Toshi, 'I-I-I Killed him, I'm a murde-'

"Midoriya, breathe," A gruff voice called out, a hand rubbed circles around his back, while the other hand ran up and down his arm.

"Look at me," His unfocused eyes could only register a stubble, "Exhale and inhale, there you go, do it slowly,"

Izuku blinked the blurriness from his eyes, "S-Sensei, what are you doing...here?"

Aizawa released a relieved sigh, "Don't worry about that, continue breathing like this,"

"H-Huh, I-I, Wha-" Izuku's panic started to kick in, if the teacher is here, "I-I-I Did-n' m-mean to k-"

'Brat, shut your trap,'

Izuku zipped his mouth immediately, eyes searching frantically for the voice dripped with venom, he looked over the Aizawa's shoulder, a white fluff was sitting where the yokai resting corpse was

"W-Wher-"

Shinsou squeezed his arms, looking at him with something close to a pitiful look on his eyes, "I think the sicko ran away, you were alone when we come in,"

Oh...oh, 'They don't know that I killed the yokai, that's great." The tension in his shoulder loosened, he felt his eye lid drooping heavily, warm arms encased him in something sort of like a hug, and he melted in it.

"Oh, Deku..."

"It will do you better if we got you out of here," Aizawa picked the traumatized child, Shinsou following closely after him.

Fingers ran through his curly hair, a new scent tickled his nose, he opened his eyes. Izuku jolted with fright when he couldn't feel his hand, but something squeezed it.

Izuku watched blankly as the hand around his, squeezed it. It was warm, so warm. The tight grip didn't loosen, so he squeezed back in response. Slowly he trailed at the familiar uniform infront of his face, then to those lavender eyes, "H-Hitoshi?"

Shinsou's relieved smile was enough to cause him to spring from his warm seat, Izuku threw his hands and cupped the pale cheeks, turning them left and right; assessing for any damage, "Toshi, are you okay?! Did you get hurt?!"

Another set of hands pulled him back from interrogating the boy, and he fell into that warm embrace, "Problem child, calm down; nobody is hurt. Except for your dumbass who thought it was a good idea to lock yourself with a serial killer,"

Izuku was surprised to find that all this time he was sitting on Aizawa's lap, just the way Mito will hold him whenever he was in distress.

"Eh, Aizawa-sensei why are you here?"

The raven head rolled his eyes and smacked the kid's head, "What in the world were you thinking, Shinsou nearly had a heart attack when you locked the door,"

The freckled teen looked at him like as if he was stupid, "Umm, if I had left that door unlocked, he would have killed Toshi?"

Shinsou was not amused with his answer, "You idiot, then what about you?!" The lavender head shook the younger's shoulder, trying to sink some sense into him, "If you died, then what am I supposed to do?!"

Izuku's throat closed up, death? He doesn't think he would have died, with the cat being with him and all, but for a second; he felt the he would have died when their attacks didn't damage the cloaked yokai.
