Out Of Reach (Kacchan x Fem! Deku BNHA)

Chapter XXIX: Good Bye

Shigaraki did fell under her wrath, news were spreading like wild fire. I wish I saw her fight, I wish I did saw her crush the villain to complete her dream.

She flew down, with grace, carrying a girl with short brown hair, a pair of wings over her head but seemingly useless. She was sleeping in her arms as I stared at the girl. She's probably the same age as Kazuki.

"Lord Venom's daughter." My orbs widen hearing her as I stared at her now green eyes.

"She saved me." Her gaze looks trouble, guilt all over her eyes as I still refuse to believe that the girl was that bastard's daughter.

"She's pretty cute to be his." We all turned our head to Kazuki as his face burned red later looking away. Right, he's hitting puberty already.

"Tha-that's not what I meant." He was stuttering now, face still all red as I abd Deku laugh. I ruffled his hair playfully loving the moment.

"What did she do?" I ask out of curiousity.

"Her quirk involves making her drawings come to life, she drew a dragon that saved my life, but Shigaraki manage to injure her." She sighed handing the girl to soneone else, there was no trace of her father's appearance on her and that made me glad even her quirk isn't like her father's.

Pretty sure, Todoroki would have envied her.

"That's a nice birthday gift, a second chance to live." I grinned as her face burned red, looking away, moving the few stray strands of her hair behind her ear.

"Whaaaa! It's already midnight! It's mom's birthday! I'm sorry I haven't got anything at all!" Kazuki panicked as I laugh.

"You getting here safe is enough," she kissed her over his forehead lovingly. It broke my heart knowing what will happened afterwards.

Villains were now captured, as I stared into Deku's eyes, sadness written all over it before she forced a smile at Kazuki who was right beside me, my hand firmly over his shoulder trying to comfort him of sonething he is yet to face.

She's leaving.

And yet I hope, that she'll remain under the boy's request. I plead to the gods thay may they change her mind as I knew this might be the last.

"Kazuki, can we talk?" She spoke as my chest felt like it has been clenched, ripped, destroyed... Shattered. I lifted my hand from the boy's shoulder so he wouldn't feel it tremble, so he wouldn't know that I already know.

I didn't want the boy to be angry at him, and I would evebtually promise him that I'd look for Deku, I would definitely look for her. I would never be tired of chasing after her, I'd be alright spending my life like that.

"Great! I want to tell you about what I did to Dabi!" I bit my lower lips, denying the tears as they begged to br released. Looking at how clueless he was, looking at how happy he was, it was painful, far too much, destructive on it's own way.

Kazuki waved at me, telling me that they will be back, as he uttered so I saw Deku looking pained as she ask Kazuki to follow her, I did the same, undetected, out of their sight, I still hope that she'd stay. I don't want her to leave anymore, it's too much, she's too much.... It felt like I was under the cold snow again, blood flowing out of me as she looks horrofied, leaving me again.

The excitement in Kazuki's voice as he continued to talk about how he escaped, how he fought Dabi, how he was so happy that we could be together... I lost it then, the denial that I gave the tears weren't strong enough as they flowed the same time as the smile on her face that faded.

I've grown to care for the boy, more than I should have.

"Mom, what's wrong?" He asked as I hid behind the alley, the two of them just about few meters away from me. I sat down by then, letting the tears go, my hand trembling over my head as I pulled my own hair out of frustration.

"Kazuki... I couldn't stay with you..." My whole body began to tremble, biting my lower lip again as there was silence between them.

"Whe-where are you going?" the question was uttered because he still denied a conclusion that was actually the reality. I know, because I did the same.

"Anywhere from here... Away from you." She replied, softly, gently as if he was the most fragile thing there was. He is, because she's leaving him, the biggest part of my life and also mine.

"Bu-but you can't leave..." His voice was now shacking, it was like an earthquake the destroyed me. The pain in his voice was obvious, he was pleading through his tone as well.

"I have to sweet heart."

"N-no, please... No, don't go... Don't leave me mom... Don't you love dad? Don't you want to be with him?" He was almost yelling, anger now forming within him, unable to accept that the hapoiness he expected was now shattered.

"Don't you love me?" There was silence and I could tell that Izuku was now crying.

"I love you, Kazuki, I love you father as well, I love the both of you." Her voice was shacking now, sounding far more painful now.

"But mom--- mom, please! Please! I can't live without you! Just bring me, jyst bring me with you! Please!" He begged and that shattered me, I did not expect him to tell tbat, I want him to convince her to stay... Yet I tried to understand him, I know he's only saying this because all of these information was too much for him.

"No--- just stay, dad has been sad! Dad bas been! Just like you! Please! You need each other! You can just hide somewhere! Out of tje people's judgements just don't leave us!" He pleaded as I gasp for air, the tears streaming faster now... I can't breath, I couldn't... My chest felt too tight it's too much.

"He's living his dream sweet plum and you need to reach yours."

"Fuck those dreams! It's nothing without you!" I'd definitely say the same.

"I-I'm sorry Kazuki... I'm sorry... I love you, I love you so much.... Goodbye." She whispered, the word now.

And I just died.

"No mom! No mom! Please no!" Please!" He kept screaming running footsteps ringing down the road.

"Mom! Please! Don't leave me! Please!" He cried now, probably by then she was out of his sight. He continued cryibg, begging into the air as I bit my lower lip. Sitting there, hating the feeling of being unable to stop her.

And I stayed still there, tears not stopping as I heard him scream one last time.

"Come back!"

His words echoed through the road, his sobs and cries follows as I died.

I bit my lower lip, pulling a necklace out of my pocket forgetting to give it to her.

The word 'good bye' was coincidentally the 1000th word before it was edited 😃.

And I'm crying right now.
