(Third person PoV) Again with Cayden helping me because he's also devoted to this monstrosity.

Cayden teleports out, forgetting he doesn't have control over where he goes.
One second, he's staring at the crying Aria, practically begging him to stay, and now he's in a room with a dark ambience.
"Can I- Can I help you?" A voice asked.
"Yeah, where am I?"
"You're in my dorm room?"
'UA, I figured' Cayden thought.
"Do you know where Aizawa is?"
"Who are you?"
"I'm cayden, I know Aria"
"Oh, you're the infamous Cayden. He should be in the main building"
"You still haven't told me who you are"
"I'm Fumikage Tokoyami"
"Alright. Thanks for the directions"
He walks out of the room, he hears a click behind him.
Tokoyami locks the door.
"Now how do I get out of here?" Cayden asked himself.
"Ah, there you are," someone said from down the corridor.
"Oh, hey Aizawa"
"Where were you? You missed class"
"I didn't feel good so I just kind of didn't go"
"Ah, I see"
"That aside. Do you know where Aria is?"
Aizawa looks at Cayden, confused.
"Are you alright? You uh, have blood on your shirt"
"I'm fine, I just fell"
Aizawa didn't believe him.
"Come to my room"
'oh, I'm doomed' Cayden thought.
"Why?"
"You're holding your stomach like you hurt it"
"I fell. On my stomach"
"Yeah, I bet you did"
"I wouldn't lie to you"
"Everyone lies"
"To you"
"Aria has lied to me before, I'd expect it from you too"
"Why me?"
"Because you're more mature than she is"
They approached a room, and Aizawa took a set of keys out.
"Why are we going into your room"
"Because I don't think anyone else needs to see this"
The lock shifted, the door opened. Aizawa held the door open, letting Cayden walk in. Then he closed the door, leaning against it afterwards.
"Take off your shirt"
"No, I'm not taking my shirt off, you pedophile"
"I'm not a pedophile. And if you weren't hurt that badly, you wouldn't mind If I looked at it"
"I refuse"
"It's not like-" Aizawa paused. "Are you a woman with short hair?"
"No, I'm a dude"
"Then it's the same gender"
"That doesn't mean anything"
"I'm sure you had no problem changing in front of people at school"
"That was required. I am a minor and I have independence"
Nobody spoke for a minute.
Aizawa put his hand in his pocket, pulling out a wallet.
He rummaged through it, taking out a bill.
"I'll give you 10,000 yen"
"How much is that in US Dollars?"
"I don't know, take the money and let me look at it. It might be worse than you think it is"
"No, I'm not taking your cash"
"You said you were looking for Aria"
"Yeah, where is she"
"She didn't come into class today either"
"So where is she? She's your kid"
"She texted me saying she was going on a walk to clear her mind-"
"Where"
"Around? Why are you even looking for her?"
"I need to tell her something"
"Text her"
"I lost my phone"
"Alright, I'll ask her where she is"
"Thank you"
"Where do you think you're going?"
"To look for Aria?"
"Fine, go ahead"
Cayden clapped, teleporting outside of a pizza parlor.
Aria wasn't there.
He clapped again, teleporting to the hideout.
"Yeah, and I don't know what to do anymore, because he's the only person I have left, and now he's gone! I never thought-! He's not the type of person to just up and at it leave! He's chan-"
Dabi and Aria were sitting next to each other in dabi's room, playing a card game.
"Found you," Cayden said, leaning against the doorframe.
"I'm really not in the mood right now, Cayden"
"Neither am I. Follow me"
"I'm in the middle of something right now, we can talk later"
"It's not talking"
"What're you gonna do, kill me for being an ass?"
"Maybe"
"That was a rhetorical question-"
"I've thought long and hard about your quirk"
"Oh really?"
"You won't come back if there's nothing left to bring back"
"Cayden, you sound like Shigaraki. You're pissing me off"
"How am I pissing you off?"
"Maybe because you yelled at me, we fought"
"And?"
"And?"
"Yeah, what's so-"
Aria stood up.
"Not In Front of Dabi. Let's go" Aria said.
A wide smile spread across his face.
"Let's go then"
She followed him outside, around the corner, through the street, into an alleyway. The same alleyway that they had originally teleported to when she escaped the league of villains.
"Why are we here?"
"I came here to make one thing, FUCKING CLEAR!"
Aria flinched at the noise.
"You're not special. You're not different. You're just like everyone else. You're just a little more traumatized than everyone else"
All she could do was stare at him.
"Please don't hurt me" She whimpers, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"And why are you crying again?"
"Because you're yelling at me"
"Can't you take a little noise?!"
"I'm sorry!"
"For what? Apologizing for what?"
"For being your friend, for helping you when you fell down, for liking you, for being in the same school as you, for existing"
"That's great, but I really don't care"
He pushed her down, she hit the ground hard.
"Cayden, stop this. This isn't you! Where's the Cayden we all know?"
"People change"
"No, times change"
"Shut up"
"People only change for the better good. Anything else they 'change' to, isn't changing. It's degrading and-"
"I don't need to hear a rant about changing"
"And maybe you should need to, because you need it"
"Shut up"
"I'll shut up when I'm dead"
"SHUT UP!"
She was breathing heavily.
He leaned against the wall, making it clear that he was upset.
"I'm- I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"
"Stop apologizing"
"What?"
"I said stop apologizing. You keep apologizing for everything, and it makes me nauseous because of how much you hate losing people"
"And it looks like the only person I could lose, I lost. I'm leaving now"
She stood up.
"You can go into hiding as long as you want to, but I'll never, ever forget you"
"Wait, don't go"
He walked towards her, grabbing her shoulder.
"Don't touch me there. It's still sore from getting stabbed two months ago"
"What an excuse"
He let go.
"You're lucky you -"
"Goodbye, I'm leaving. Aizawa probably called me six times and has probably also already called the cops"
"Let's hope not, because your blood will be all over the place"
"What the-"
He lunged at her, pinning her to the ground.
"Cayden, did you get brainwashed into becoming a villain?"
"No, I just don't like the heroes. They're all terrible"
"I'm terrible too then"
"Yeah, you're an ass"
"Wow, that's a game changer"
"Why don't we fight"
"Like a real fist fight?"
"Yeah, to settle this down"
"That doesn't make sense"
They both stood up, standing a few Feet away from each other.
Cayden pulled a wooden shank out from his pocket.
"I have a shank"
"And I have a broken glass bottle?"
Cayden lunged at her, knocking the bottle out of her hand.
Glass shards flew in the air, landing on both of them. They covered the ground, brown shards not very distinguishable from the dirty concrete.
"You don't have to go this"
Pinning her to the ground, glass cut her back.
"You're hurting me!" Aria yelled.
"That's the whole point!"
She grabbed his shoulders, with all the boxing she saw after hours at school during the honor band practices, she knew a thing or two.
Flipping him over, he grunted.
'weak spots, maybe if I can find a weak spot it'll be quick'  Cayden thought
Aria screamed, stabbing Cayden in the shoulder with a suspicious metal object.
She stood up, shocked at what she had just done.
"I'm sorry"
"You fought back?"
She nodded.
"And I don't think I can ever forgive myself for doing it"
He grabbed her by the collar of her shirt, shoving her to the side.
She bumped into a dumpster, rats scurried from behind it.
He put his hands on her neck, not too tight.
"Don't do this" She cried.
"I'll see you in hell"
She didn't fight back, she felt terrible about hurting him. Even though he had been trying to kill her, she couldn't bring herself to hurt him back.
He tightened his grip.
"Please" She choked out.
He let go after she stopped moving.
He let go, she fell to the ground.
Flipping her faced up, he could see the hand marks on her neck.
"Was it that hard to fight back?"
He kicked her, she still didn't move.
It was late afternoon now, the sky glowed a pinkish red colour.
He sat down next to her.
Her eyes remained open, wheezing.
"Maybe I went too hard"
He stood up, clapping.
Now he was in the middle of the street.
A car approached, not seeing him.
"WAIT WATCH -"
