"I heard the two are finally getting kicked out."

"That took longer than expected."

"Good riddance. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near those cursed bastards."

Don't say anything. They are doing this on purpose. They just want to provoke us. Don't-

The man woke up with a jolt. He was in an unfamiliar place. He calmly observed the situation. He was lying on a single platform bed. The room he was in wasn't fairly large, but it wasn't small either. The walls were covered with dozens of All Might posters. The shelves were full of an insane amount of All Might figurines. There was a small table on the corner one which several complex mechanisms were kept. There was an open bookshelf right next to the table. All of a sudden, he tensed up. He heard footsteps outside the room. The door opened and- oh goodness! A goddess had appeared. Of course, that was over exaggeration. The newcomer was just so beautiful that she could be mistaken as a goddess. The little girl held a tray on which bowl of cold water and a white handkerchief were kept. She stared at the man with wide eyes.

"Oh! You're awake," she said.

The man didn't answer. The girl slowly approached him, carefully watching her step. She stumbled occasionally, as if she were walking for the first time in years.

"Where is my brother?" the man asked.

"Your brother? You mean the Redhead? He is still unconscious. He is sleeping in my mother's room."

The man immediately crawled out of the bed and rushed for the door.

"Wait! You haven't recovered completely yet- and there he runs off. Ranga! Help me walk."

The girl walked out of the room, leaning against her 'dog' for support. She found the man in the living room. He was looking around, trying to figure out where his brother was.

"Your brother is in that room," the girl stated as she pointed towards the door at the corner.

The man didn't utter a single word, and instead, barged into the room the girl pointed at. Just as the girl had said, his brother was lying on the bed, covered with a blanket. A white cloth was resting on his forehead. His brother seemed to have a healthy complexion and showed no sign of being injured. The man approached his brother and held his hand. His pulse was steady. The man sighed in relief, before falling down on the floor in exhaustion.

"Whoa there," exclaimed the girl.

"You haven't recovered completely, so it would be better if you take it slow and steady."

"How did you find us?" the man asked. His tone was serious.

"I found the two of you bleeding in a nearby alleyway. Since you were being chased by some shady looking guys, I figured that you wouldn't appreciate it if I just dropped you off at some random hospital, so I brought you here instead. I'm Izuku, by the way."

"How is my brother?"

"He is fine. He got a fever while I was treating him. He should be awake in an hour or so."

The man didn't say anything and simply nodded.

"You should also rest. Although your wounds weren't as severe as you brother's, they were still pretty bad."

"How long was I out?"

"A couple of hours."

The man's eyes widened. With the amount of blood he had lost, he should have been unconscious for a couple of days. He opened his mouth to ask another question, and then shut it.
