A Lone Soul

Behind the Scenes...

A smile crossed the face of young Katsuki as he and his mother entered the park. His eyes sparkled as his mom let him go as she went over to some of the other parents. He grinned as he went over. Izuku was home with a cold, which made him kinda sad, but he would make due. All the other kids were playing tag. Sadly, Katsuki wasn't in the mood to be running away/after people. He looked around before noticing a small girl watching him. He went over and she blinked.

"Hey! My name's Katsuki Bakugou. And you are?"

"Ella Winthor."

"Nice name. What's your quirk?" She blinked. "Mine is Explosions."

"I don't really know. My family is known for late starting quirks. So I won't know until it shows." He hummed at her words.

"So... quirkless until proven otherwise?"

"Yes."

"That's interesting..."

"What can you do with yours?"

"Blow things up is all I know right now. I haven't explored much of it."

"Oh..." He studied her. Her brown eyes seemed dull alongside her brown hair. She wore a gray dress with matching shoes. "Where's your mom?" He pointed over to her. "Can you keep a secret?"

"Yeah." She held out a paper. He took it.

"I'm part of a group, not very large or powerful yet, but a group that has a goal to be the best we can. Be able to fight alongside the Pro Heroes and aid them in their battles. I'm hoping you'll consider this opportunity."

"Yeah... I will." She smiled before walking away. He put the paper in his pocket and went over to the swings to relax.

Katsuki sighed as he walked home. Deku was behind him and it was very creepy in his opinion. Something else seemed to tickle his tension. Deku eventually went to his house. Katsuki went to his door and stopped.

"Katsuki."

His eyes shot behind him and met a familiar pair of brown ones. She stood by an alleyway and when their eyes met, she turned and went inside. He quickly turned and ran after her. He paused as she stopped by a dumpster.

"So you do remember." Her eyes met his again.

"Of course, Ella. Did you find your quirk?"

"No... sadly, I'm sure I'm quirkless. But that won't stop my future. I want it to go through."

"Then who..."

"My friend. Her quirk is Manipulation Wander. I asked her to reach out to you so that I could see if you knew. You caught on quick."

"Can... I meet the group?"

"Are you joining?"

"Yes." A smile crossed her face.

"Follow me. We have much to discuss."
