     "Here we are." He announced.
     "This is...UA!" The size of it was dizzying. "W-wait, what are we doing here?"
     "We're here to see Recovery Girl." Suddenly, I just wanted to disappear. I refused to do this. One person knew already; I couldn't let anyone else find out. "Come on problem child. No dwaddling." He started walking, but my feet remained frozen.
     "Sir, I don't want anybody else finding out, please." He sighed and turned back towards me.
     "Listen kid, it'll be ok." He smiled at me.
     "Promise?" He pinky promised. He started walking and my feet moved this time. We walked a long time before stopping at a large door.
     "This is her room. Ready?" I pushed the door open. "Recovery girl. I need you to look at this boy." The old lady looked over.
     "No Aizawa! Don't bring that kid in here!" A man's voice called out, sounding panicked.
     "Oh All Might, you're here too." I peeked into the room, but didn't see All Might anywhere. Just a deflated man with wild yellow hair.
     "Sir, where is All Might?" Aizawa pointed to the deflated man.
     "Oh, that's All Might? I thought he would look cooler, no offense."
     "So Aizawa, why do you need me to look at this boy? You sound concerned." He encouraged me into the room where I bowed at the old lady and All Might. "He certainly is very respectful."
     "I have reason to believe he's being abused." They both looked at me very seriously. I grabbed onto Mr. Aizawa as they told me once again that they had to inspect my body. I did as they said, but they just stared at me.
     "Oh my gosh!" Recovery Girl said after a minute. She looked up and down my body as I heard my phone ring.
     "Put it on speaker." All Might told me.
     "Where the fuck are you?" Mr. Aizawa took the phone.
     "He's at UA. He won't be coming home." I could feel Father's anger through the phone.
     "Sir." I said to my Father. "Their joking. I'll be home by 7." I took a shaky breath as I felt everyone look at me. "I'm sorry, but Father or his sidekicks will find me anyway." I told them.
     "Good. I'll see you soon son." I looked at the floor.
     "Yes sir." He hung up and an outburst of arguments swept the room. "I'm sorry guys. I can't. Let's finish this, ok?" They had me completely strip.
    "What the hell?" Mr. Aizawa pulled me closer. "Who did this?" His eyes burned in fury, but not for me.
     "F-father and his clients." I whispered.
     "It's swollen and bruised." All Might walked up to me. "You cannot go back. We won't let you." I put all my clothes back on.
     "Goodbye everyone." Before All Might could grab me, a fled the room towards home. I sprinted through the front door and ran into Father, landing on my butt.
     "How dare you? You're going to regret that!" He dragged me into a room where 7 people were waiting. I tried fleeing the room, but Father grabbed me and tossed me. I hit my head on the floor and felt too weak to do anything as they pounced on me. Everytime I went to scream for help, they bit my tongue so hard it bled. The pain was unbearable; my head was bleeding, but I couldn't focus on healing it.
     "I'm gonna die here." I thought. "I'm not making it through this."  I couldn't move, as they tore through every part of my body. It hurt so bad, I thought I might pass out. I heard the door swing open, but they still didn't stop until someone pulled them off of me. It was Mr. Aizawa. He now knew the secret, and I felt better. I smiled at him, then the world went dark.
