Prequel Pt1, Arc 0: Let Me, Help You

Fuck, Kacchan was not supposed to be around here!

Can I sleep in a park in peace?!!

Izuku kept running, with Bakugou and his damn followers on his tail, as he started weaving through dark alleyways.

Before he reached a dead end.

Fuckfuckfuckdamnimsofuckingdead-

Trying to turn around, he comes face-to-face with Bakugou before being punched in the face, hitting the wall, his back screaming in pain.

"Aw, look at the defenseless Deku!" One of Bakugou's lackeys said, pointing their long and thin fingers at Izuku as he attempted to push himself off the wall before getting punched in the abdomen with a quirk-induced explosion, making him wince as he smashed into the wall again with force.

Bakugou sneered at him, grabbing his curls in a tight grasp. "Who told your villain ass to get up? Huh?"

Dammit, I literally just detangled them earlier!

Izuku cried out, tears threatening to fall. "K-Kacchan! w-wait st-"

Bakugou banged the back of Izuku's head into the wall with force, making his head pound in agony while he slumped down to the dirty ground before his disoriented vision was forced to look back up at Bakugou.

"So? Who told your ass to get up? Let alone speak-"

"Aw, bullying? That's so low." A new voice spoke out, in a mocking tone as everyone in the alleyway looked to see who it was.

"Who are you-"
"What the fuck-"
"Hah?! Wh-"

Bakugou and his followers' eyes went blank white as Izuku panicked.

Oh no no no no I'm really dead-
"Get off of him." The voice said as Bakugou adhered to the command, removing his hand from Izuku's black-green curls and standing still in a daze.

"Now, fuck off and leave him alone." They said in a harsh tone, Bakugou obeyed their orders while walking stiffly with his lackeys following behind him and walked out of the dirty alleyway.

The stranger watched as they walked away from the alleyway before looking straight at Izuku.

Izuku jumped at that, still trying to process what was happening before the person (god, he really needed to stop saying 'person') delicately walked to him.

They stopped in front of him before crouching down and softly grabbing his jaw with calloused hands, checking for any injuries.

As they checked for his injuries, he stared into lovely lavender irises with white pupils.

They're so beautiful.

"What?"

Oh.

Did I say that out loud?

They softly giggled, "Yeah, you actually did."

They even have a sweet and soothing voice, it's like listening to a lullaby.

Makes him want to sleep forever and ever andeverand-

Izuku's eyes are suddenly jostled open as the stranger picks him up in a bridal carry as they run at a fast pace. The midnight sky moved along with the two of them as the stars striked in the sky in unison.

"Woah, am I the princess and you're my knight?" Izuku said in a slurred speech as he looked at the lavender-eyed person who had matching lavender hair sticking out of their hood.

Like a color scheme, very pretty.

Izuku finally took in the stranger's outfit. They had a dark purple zip-up and a hood containing cat ears, with a black gas mask that covered the bottom half of their face. Matching black cargo pants, they looked to be full of stuff and black steel-toed boots.

"Please don't fall asleep," The lavender-haired said.

"Okay...why not?"

"I don't want anything to happen to you with your injuries."

Izuku hummed, "Tell me about yourself, then?"

"No."

"I'm gonna sleep." Izuku says before trying to go back to that beautiful, oh yes beautiful, void beneath his eyelids.

They huffed at that as they jostled him awake again, making Izuku pout at that. "Fine I will, since It'll take a while to get to my hideout."

"Okay...Information?"

"Call me...Somus. For now, of course."

"Pretty and mysterious? I like that." He said as those lavender eyes rolled at him in annoyance. "What? You're beautiful."

"And you have a concussion," Somus said, focusing on what's in front of them. "Anyways, I'm a vigilante and I'm almost 13."

"Same, Birthday?"

"July 1st"

"July 15th, damn."

Those lavender eyes blinked, looking down at Izuku from lavender eyelashes before looking back up and stopped in front of a place. "We are here."

Humming, Izuku moves a bit, "Can I sleep now?"

"No."

-.-

Hitoshi sighed, with a first aid kit and different medications in hand, seeing the black-green-haired boy sleeping on the beaten-up light brown couch that was in the center of the abandoned apartment that somehow had working electricity and clean running water.

Who he clearly told not to sleep, as a precaution.
He went to crouch beside them, putting the first aid kit down, before carefully putting a gel ice pack on their nose.

Grabbing an ace wrap, he goes to lift up their shirt a bit before wrapping the bandage around their ribs to make sure that it was comfortable and not harsh before putting it back down.

Finally he softly shook them awake, jumping at the sudden movement.

As they sat up, they screamed. "FUCK! THE BOOGEYMAN ALMOST GOT ME!" before stopping and slowly turned to Hitoshi, who had a shocked look on his face, and freaked out.

"Shit, I am so sorry!" They said apologetically.
Hitoshi shook his head before getting up, grabbed the medicine and cup of water, and offered it to them as they took it reluctantly.

"You're fine, here's the medicine for the concussion. Also the boogeyman? Vivid imagination?"

Shaking their head, viridescent eyes stared at amethyst as they took the pills and drank the water. "Nope, Anyways...Why am I here?"

"Almost had your ass handed to you, by an angry pomeranian."

"...How did you find me?"

"Saw your head get bashed into a wall by a bitch with a superiority complex."

"Ah."

The two of them stared at each other before the boy spoke up. "Izuku, Midoriya Izuku. Just call me Izuku."

Hitoshi nodded his head, "Call me Hitoshi, then."

He pulled out his burner phone, realizing that his patrol wasn't over and looked up back at Izuku who was looking restless. "Um, there's clothes that you can hopefully wear in the bathroom in the hallway to the right. You can take a shower if you'd like? I still have a patrol to do."

Izuku nodded before getting up and walking to the bathroom.

Hitoshi was almost out the door before hearing Izuku squealing about how "I'm gonna steal all of your damn hair products!" making him snort.
