Child of the Past (MHA Hitoshi Shinsou Angst)

First Day of Class (Chapter 2)

Hitoshi POV

  I woke up to the vibration of my phone, I check it seeing it was my alarm clock, I force myself to get off the floor ignoring the roaring pain going through my body. I go to the bathroom after grabbing my uniform and change into it, after cleaning my wounds. I grabbed everything I needed before dropping out of the window to the hard ground, I muffle a cry of pain before running off. I ran until the house was no longer in sight and I settled into a comfortable walk to the rest of the way to my school.

  I arrived at the school, the gates were flooded with students, and teachers were standing at the gates greeting the new and old students. I didn't see Eraserhead but he also wasn't one to socialize, to be honest, so it wasn't a shock. I also hated socializing but I swallowed my anxiety and joined the crowd of students, I was getting pushback and forth, to be honest, it hurt a lot definitely when I was pushed on my wounds. I finally got through the crowd and made my way to class, there were a few students in the class already but ignored them and walked to the desk in the very back corner. Class began and we were going through introductions before starting the plans for the future, it was now my turn to introduce myself. I stand up taking a shakey breath before speaking "I'm Hitoshi Shinsou, I'm fifteen and my quirk is mind control," I say before sitting down. As always the whispers began, the class continued and I barely paid attention, to be honest. My last name wasn't Shinsou, I was never given one, I was only given a first name, I was always called the villain kid with no name, I got tired of it so when I was adopted by the Shinsou family, I kept the name. I was once adopted but after a tragic accident when I was 11 they died, they were murdered to be specific, the murderers said they didn't want to kill a fake Shinsou so they let me live, unfortunately.

  The day came to an end and we were dismissed to go home or to our dorms, I left unwillingly, my phone had been blowing up all day. I didn't want to go back to that horrid place and face the punishments that were going to happen no matter what I did, even if I didn't go today I would still be punished just for existing. I decided to go to a small cat cafe that wasn't far from the school, I didn't have any money to buy anything but I would like to play with the cats. I enter the small cafe and sat at a table, cats instantly came over to me and I just sat there playing with them. I apologize repeatedly to the waitress after I told her that was not there to order just for the cats, she said it was fine but I couldn't stay any longer than an hour. I was happy just to see the cats, I didn't mind I couldn't stay long. 

  I was not expecting to see the 2 pro heroes Present Mic and Eraserhead but here they were entering the cafe together. They sat at the table next to me, I didn't want to be rude and stare so I just continued to play with the cats. "Hey, sorry kid my boss said you have to leave since you can't order anything," the waitress said as she returned, I nod and smile apologetically "I understand, I'm sorry for causing a scene," I say in a soft voice. I get up to leave when all of a sudden my wrist was grabbed gently "We will pay for him to get something," I looked at the person and was shocked to see it was Eraserhead. "Oh you don't have to do that," I say still in shock, it seems Present Mic was also shocked by his actions, the waitress nodded as I was pulled at the 2 pro heroes table. "Order anything you like," he says, I nod slowly "I'll take a small black coffee, please," I tell the waitress and she smiles sweetly before leaving. "Thank you," I say softly and nervously picking at the skin on my wrists, "It's fine, kid," he says, I smile softly and began petting the cats again. "So what's your name," Mic asks smiling brightly, "I'm Hitoshi," I respond softly, "It's nice to meet you Hitoshi, you can call me Yamada," Yamada says his excitement never faltering. "You can call me Aizawa," Aizawa says, I smile softly "It's nice to meet y'all," I say softly, the waitress brings the coffee and I slowly drink it while playing with the cats. "I ran into you yesterday, didn't I," Aizawa asks, I nod "Yes, you saved me from Bakugou, I believe," I say trying to think back at the name he mentioned. He smiles softly and nods "He's a wild one," he says, we continued on small conversations for a little while until we all finished.

  Yamada paid for the meal and we walk outside after saying bye to the cats. "Thank y'all for the coffee," I say bowing slightly, "It's no problem, kid," Aizawa says, "I'll be going now, bye," I say before I started leaving. "How about we drive you home," Yamada asks, I shake my head "Ah no thank you," I say, "It'll make us feel better if we knew you got home safely," Aizawa says softly. I bite my lip and sigh before nodding, if it gets their concern off of me, I'll go with them and I can handle my own, they don't know my quirk I can control them if they try anything. I get into their car and directed them to my house, "Thank you for the ride," I say as I get out, "No problem, kid, stay safe," Aizawa says and I nod before entering my house.

  I close the door behind me and instantly received a punch to the face, I fall to the ground from the unexpected action. I look up seeing my foster father standing over me, "Go to your room and take off your shirt," he demands, I instantly get to my feet and do as he said. I put my shirt in my mouth with my arms on the bed and my back exposed to the door, I was prepared for what was about to come. My foster father comes in with a whip in hand, he brings it back before he whips it across my back, I hold back a cry before the whip came down again I let out a whimper into the shirt I was biting into. It came down again and I cried out but it was muffled by the shirt, he brought it down again as I sobbed loudly into the shirt. It came down again and again before he stopped, he yanked my head back by my hair so I looked him into his disgusting eyes. "You'll never go to that school again, got it," he screams in my face, I nod desperately as tears streamed down my face, of course, I was going back. He leaves slamming my door shut behind him, I let the shirt drop from my mouth as I sobbed quietly, I couldn't move and ended up staying there until I eventually passed out.
