Shatter Me [ Bakugou Katsuki ]

ONE

 A young girl with black short hair, reaching down below her shoulders walked through the academy walls. She wore the U.A High Academy uniform and carried a blue handbag over her shoulder.

As her hair bounced back to back, she stole a glance at the man walking beside her. Aizawa Shota who had taken her under his wing when she needed the most. He had already been declared a godparent to the child, in case something happened to her birth parents.

That something did happen when she was only a nine-year-old kid, and the event had left her traumatized. She had a perfect memory of it too. She and her mother had been in the midst of a battle with a vicious villain. She remembered feeling as if the world was going to end.

"I love you so much Asuka." Her limping mother had tried to carry her to a safer place when she happened upon an old friend of hers, All Might.

"Please take her. I will take care of this." Those were the last words she heard her mother say.
All Might hesitated, but her mother mouthed something to him that made him fly away, taking little Asuka in his arms along with him. The nine-year-old kid screamed for her mother, with swollen eyes as she was taken away and watched the scene go up in flames. She was there only to witness something she shouldn't have seen.

"Mom!"

After the incident, she didn't speak much, not even to her friends. It was months before Shota decided to take her in, making her at least mumble a few words. People never treated her with any kind of special treatment, especially Shota, just because she was an orphan. They had treated her with care and support, but she was still punished when punishment was needed.

Despite the traumatizing event in her life, she kept moving on, walking on the correct path with the help of those she started considers her family. They raised her with the love and the patience parents usually did.

The incident did change the way she views the world, for a couple of months there. When she found signs that she may be going down a wrong path, Shota and others prevented her from going down a dark road.

"Asuka," Shota called her out of the trance she was in, noticing the child had walked past him. Asuka scratched the back of her neck nervously before Shota glared at her and entered the classroom.

"Shota." She squinted her eyes at him as she patted her skirt and took a breath in and then out.

"You will be receiving a new transfer student this year. Take Asuka." She watched as Shota walked behind the teacher's podium.

Hearing those words, Asuka immediately walked in and stopped at the front of the classroom to take a quick look at the students.

She then noticed two familiar faces, Bakugou Katsuki, and Izuku Midoriya.

Giving a quick smile, she bowed down and stood up straight afterward. "I am Takemi Asuka. Feel free to use my first name. Please take care of me."

"She is so cute."

"I wonder what kind of quirk she has."

Whispers could be heard all throughout the classroom. She noticed that Bakugou was the only one giving her a dirty look, but she decided to ignore it.

"You can take any available chairs, Asuka. Anyways, good job everyone and hope you're well rested from yesterday's battle. I took the liberty of looking at your marks and evaluation." Asuka listened as she sat down behind Izuku.

He quickly whispered. "Hi, Asu-chan. "

Both kids hoped they wouldn't get caught by Shota, who was giving a compliment to Bakugou, along with a complaint. Being a talented student, but also needing to improve his behavior.
