My life up until now has become a blur, I can only remember darkness. I felt like I was stuck for a very long time but I could feel there were people waiting for me. Somehow to them I was important and that made me feel wanted. Maybe they didnt actually want me but I knew they needed me. To them I was important and they couldnt wait for me to return.

Ive been trapped in my head, preparing myself for what could come. Finally feeling ready I opened my eyes. I was floating in some liquid with an air mask on my face. My body felt light but it didnt last. The liquid started to drain and I was slowly lowered to the floor.

My tube opened and before me stood a man with black hair and scars. He extended his hand down to me and smiled. "Welcome back, Nova." He spoke as I grabbed his hand. He helped me to my feet even though I was very unsteady. I guess it really had been awhile since well, I wasnt sure since when.

I looked around to see we were in an underground laboratory, test tubes all over the place with monsters floating inside. The man started walking away so I followed. "Who am I?" I asked the man as we walked. He paused for a moment and turned to me. "Memory loss was to be expected, you went through a lot." He said before continuing down a corridor.

When we got to the end there was a van waiting for us. We got inside and the car instantly started moving. The man sat across from me, he obviously looked familiar but I just couldnt remember who he was. Without meaning too I just stared at him, trying to figure out how I knew him but nothing came to mind.

"My name is Dabi and crazy enough you are my sister." The man finally told me, my jaw dropped for a moment but I quickly closed it. "Where is the rest of our family?" I asked him, eager to meet everyone else. "Theyre bad people, Nova. I was treated poorly and I wasnt going to sit around and let them harm you too." He tried explaining to me, but it was hard to believe without having memories.

(Normal is Nova, bold is Dabi)

"So what happened to me? Why was I alone for so long?"

"Were you awake the whole time?"

"Im not sure, it was just very dark. It felt like I was stuck in my head."

"You were hurt, bad. You were protecting someone who didnt deserve it and in the end you were the one on the ground. It took awhile but we were able to heal you."

Vague memories surfaced in my head. There was a lot of fire, my body was heavy and burning. The feeling of guilt and disappointment washed over my being and I guess it showed on my face. "Can you remember?" Dabi asked me and I just shook my head. It didnt feel good not remembering my past, I felt out of place.

When we arrived at our destination, the building looked abandoned and dirty. We went inside and there were others waiting for us. "Welcome back Nova!" A young girl yelled and hugged me. The embrace was familiar and even though it was meant to be kind it didnt feel that way. "Give her some space." A creepy man with shaggy hair said.

The man looked young but his face showed hes been through a lot. He stood and walked over next to me. One by one he pointed to someone and told me their names. They already knew I had memory loss. They all greeted me with smiles or nods, just from their appearance and attitudes I could tell they were villains.

Although I couldnt remember my life I had memories for other things. Like my quirk, its called "weasel". Im able to enter peoples bodies and minds just by touching them. I can alter memories, cause illusions, create doubt, cause pain. There was a lot my quirk could do but if I over use it my body shuts down for a bit.

Dabi took me by my arm and led me out the room. He showed me around the building and then to the room Ill be staying in. "Can you tell me more about our family?" I asked before he left me. His hand was on the door knob and he looked down before turning back to me. "Ill only tell you so much for now, what do you want?" He said.

"Who are our parents?"

"Our father is a pro hero. Im not sure about your mother."

Do we not have the same mom?

"No, you were born a bastard child, it caused issues our fathers and my mothers relationship."

I was the issue?

"No, my mother was a saint and loved you as if you were her own. The fact our father had a child with another woman is what caused the issues. Our father is an awful person and only had children to surpass the number one hero."

"Is that what I was meant for too?"

"Not originally, but when your mother dropped you off at the house one day thats what our father took it as a sign of. I think you were meant to stay hidden from everyone but your mother just couldnt do that."

Did he hurt us?

"He hurt us all."

With that Dabi stood up and walked to the door. Before closing it he turned to me once again. Please try to sleep, there is much to be done tomorrow. Then he shut the door.
