The Distant light

Regrets and hope

Walking back from the beach...which Obviously was a hassle on it's own Izuku managed to get home...Odachi in hand...he doesn't have his key...
Izuku: "Crap...right" he had to go through the tree again...climbing it as usual...jumping on the roof then he climbs into his window, Stumbling a bit he puts the sword under his bed and he hears a commotion going on...not wanting to be a part of it he hurries and takes a shower...sitting down as he does normally...letting the water wash over him...his mind went back to the slime villain...his screams and howls of pain as he burned into nothing.  he couldn't help it...he stopped for a moment and he rushed to the toilet and let out whatever was left in his stomach which was nothing...he has blood on his hand once more, only this time it was direct.  he finally got a towel around him and he looks at his reflection in the mirror the face that had gone through a lot...slowly bringing a hand up to touch the bag under his eye...how they have a golden tint now...leaving it be he returns to his room to get ready for the day...he realized his phone received multiple texts
Izuku: "Mirio?" he wanted to hangout...wow...a hangout...something he never really did, probably when he was still...well last he had anything close to a hangout was taking his sister and her friends down to the mall...which is exactly what he's asking him, thinking back to Stain he has a full day until tomorrow morning. he was afraid to be honest he's never had...friends before, real ones and not just ones you would talk to through online or during a match on his games...he braced himself and replied he could which was met with the capital words 'WOO' and such giving him a time and when to arrive, he heard his door opening and Izumi walks in 
Izumi: "*GASP!* Jesus dude!" scaring her she had a hand on her chest as she calms herself 
Izuku: "Sorry" 
Izumi: "where were you this morning?" 
Izuku: "The beach" 
Izumi: "Dagobah? I thought you hated the beach" 
Izuku: "Needed to walk...hate being cooped up in here...what did you need?" 
Izumi: "oh right..um...I'm going to be hanging with my friends today so um...I was sorta hoping i could borrow your red plaid" 
Izuku: "my plaid jacket?" she nodded he gestures her it was okay
Izumi: "thank you" 
Izuku: "Just make sure it isn't in rags" 
Izumi: "You had to remind me" 
Izuku: "Just joking sis...Be safe out there" 
Izumi: "kay...i'll be leaving" 
Izuku: "Um one moment" 
Izumi: "Hmm?" 
Izuku: "uh...I have this...so...what do i do?" showing her the message mirio sent him and she was excited for him 
Izumi: "oh this is so cool!...your going to a real hangout?...like...for real for real?!" 
Izuku: "Is it that surprising?" deadpanning 
Izumi: "NO...it's just...your usually here...and i know it's because of the pain...but...I'm glad your able to find some people to talk with" 
Izuku: "well..thank you..." 
Izumi: "Is it one person or a group?" 
Izuku: "from the looks of it it's a group" 
izumi: "okay nothing to be nervous about just let it flow and when your asked a question just answer honestly" 
Izuku: "okay" 
Izumi: "and for your question...just dress casual...nothing to fancy your just meeting people it's not a job interview" 
Izuku: "heh...alright then..." 
Izumi: "and by casual i mean not looking like your getting out of bed...or those ridiculous Tees you have" 
Izuku: "Oh come on you said it was charming" 
Izumi: "For sleep not to wear in public...god the amount of looks i received when you wore it at moms business party" 
Izuku: "it wasn't the end of the world" 
Izumi: "But yes...casual and maybe a little style in your hair...otherwise your good!" giving him two thumbs up 
Izuku: "Okay then...Thanks again" Ruffling her hair 
Izumi: "HEY HEY I just combed it!" 
Izuku: "not going to stop me" leaving her be he gets out some sets of clothing and he again overthinks about it
Izuku: "What is 'casual' to her?" 

in the storm drain near Downtown Mustafa...yellow tape has been put into place and blockades leading to the drain itself 
"Detective over here!" calling the man over...wearing a brown trench coat and hat his face some would call simple walks up to the officers and present hero..who looks like he has slept in over a year 
"Naomasa" the hero calls him 
Naomasa: "Eraserhead" 
Aizawa: "So...what do you think?" 
Naomasa: "From the photo provided to me i had reasons to doubt it's proof" 
Aizawa: "You mean you didn't believe something like this happening?" 
Naomasa: "I mean would you believe me if i told you the remains of a villain was a giant eye?" 
Aizawa: "...I could the reasoning" now going towards the drain one of the officers were seen vomiting and another handed them a mask 
"It's pretty bad...I would advise you to be weary of the smell" walking to the drain Naomasa winces at the sight in front of him...seeing the concrete cracked and looking 'lifeless' despite being stone like...the fact that there is no blood is telling...but only the remains of the yellow cracks in the earth...then came the main reason...the giant swollen eyeball that lays in the middle of it...
Naomasa: "have you taken samples?" 
Aizawa: "still in process however i wanted to point out this" pointing at the strange yellow mucus-like substance secreting from the eye 
Naomasa: "what's peeked your interest?" as Aizawa grabs a small stick to get some of it letting it come into contact only for the stick to light on fire with golden flames...dropping it the stick continued to burn until only ashes remained but even then the embers remain lit 
Aizawa: "Whatever quirk this is, It's highly Volatile seeing how much it warped everything around it and that's from just the eye itself." 
Naomasa: "So the quirk must be worse then...this is concerning...If it's able to affect a bigger area it could be classed as a City destroyer" 
Aizawa: "for now we'll have this drain closed and a new one made...in case the water could change from this" 
Naomasa: "let me know when the research is finished i'll go around and ask if anyones seen anything out of the ordinary other than the scream the two officers stationed heard at the time" 
Aizawa: "Alright...good luck...hope we don't need it" 

Izuku: "Okay...okay" calming himself he takes another pill to control his pain...he slowly gets up to leave the train...he is near the mall...he had doubts 
Izuku: 'what if it's just a prank...they could make fun of me for being 'quirkless' or having a malformed quirk...from what i told them...I...Then i guess would truly be alone then...nonono...no time for that...i have to endure and get through with it..." steeling himself he starts going up the stairs to Kiyoshi Mall and he sits outside waiting for them...he looks back on his hand it was shaking...whether from nervousness or the pain...likely the latter he calms himself again...humming a song one that his father would hum...heh...he has a lot to remember about him...
"YO!!" snapping his head to the left he sees Mirio waving at him 
Mirio: "what's up!" sitting next to him 
Izuku: "nothing much...so...you said it as a group?" 
Mirio: "mm!" taking a sip from his drink he puts it down and he hands him his phone showing a photo of him and three others...one he recognized was Yuyu...but the other two...were new...
Mirio: "right here's Tamaki Amajiki...he's a bit shy but when you get to know him a little more he can feel comfortable holding a conversation...so expect him to be quiet during this" 
Izuku: "okay" and then...the one by Tamaki...caught him off guard...or took his breath away...
Mirio: "and that...Is Nejire Hado she is very energetic and quite the talker...hehe..so be aware of the barrage of questions she'll give you" 
Izuku kept looking at her...but he realized he stared for too long 
Izuku: "sorry" handing it back to him 
Mirio: "No worries man...*sigh*...man...did anything interesting this week?" 
Izuku: "No...just trying to get through it...usual stuff" 
Mirio: "oh right...your...um" 
Izuku: "my condition?...it's an open book don't worry about it" 
Mirio: "right..I wanted to ask...have you tried everything?" 
Izuku: yeah...quirk suppressant cuffs with Painkillers is my treatment right now" 
Mirio: "and it still hurts?" nodding somberly 
Izuku: "yeah...you don't have to worry right now...i just took it...so i'm good to go at least for a while" 
Mirio: "Well...would you want me to let them know?...otherwise we can keep it to ourselves" 
Izuku: "do whatever you think is best man..." n
Mirio: "alright...hmm...so...were you busy yesterday?" 
Izuku: "well...sort of" 
Mirio: "we still need to get you in the party!...have to take down this boss that's been kicking me and Yus butt" 
Izuku: "Well depends on the boss your stuck on" going into a different conversation this went on for a bit until 
Yuyu: "hey Mirio...izuku!" seeing the two the rest of them show up 
Mirio: "Hey guys!" tamaki just waves slightly...shy seeing Izuku and just being in crowds makes him nervous
Nejire: "AH...So this is Izuku!...Hi I'm Nejire Hado...I heard a lot about you!...what's your age?...what school do you go to?...Do you like quirks?....what about yours?" 
Mirio: "uh..Nej?" 
Yuyu: "Down girl" 
Izuku: "I go to Kashyykk high, I do have a hobby analyzing quirks when i get the chance, I...I don't have a Quirk to be frank" 
Nejire: "ooh...Okay then...well nice to meet you!" 
Izuku: "hehe...same here" 
Yuyu: "so what's todays agenda Mirio?" 
Mirio: "mm!...don't know honestly..just whatever comes to mind" 
Tamaki: "*sigh*" 
Yuyu: "How about food...training today was rough" 
Mirio: "sure..no prob!" and that's how it starts...how Izuku managed to find some people...who at least treats him like a person. 

"Ujiko" hearing the voice coming from behind him...
Ujiko: "Yes...I am aware of the situation" 
"Seems he managed to unleash a part of it's power" 
Ujiko: "..." 
"Found by the Hero killer himself he's bound to become a formidable person...pain or not Determination like that is never seen before" 
Ujiko: "Well as the saying goes...Like father, Like son" 
"Mmm indeed...Hisashi never truly wanted to let him be contained in a cage...but the boys body is already one confined to endure everything...how his nerves are shot...his chest burns...a personal hell don't you agree?" 
Ujiko: "even with Painkillers and such it's proven to be minimally effective...the suppressant cuffs are barely doing anything...and it continues to get stronger...I'm afraid nothing will stop it when it reaches a tipping point" 
"And what do you conclude from it?" 
Ujiko: "That all Life...everything...even the stone itself will be nothing but a world of ashes"
