"He suffered a broken arm, which I was able to repair, and tremendous amounts of wounds to his upper body and head. Luckily he didn't sustain any head trauma. He was very lucky. But he still took a huge beating...like someone beat him senseless."
All Might lowered his head to look at Ryou, who was hooked up to machined, bandages covering his head, upper body, and a cast on his arm.
"Besides Aizawa and Young Midoriya...this is the worst yet. I'm sorry Young Ryou, that I wasn't there."
Doctor Chiyo Shuzenji took out a chart. "All Might...he was in critical condition when he came in. Whoever did this to him obviously wanted to send a message. Through the boy."
All Might looked over at Ryou. "That would appear to be the case. I haven't seen anyone slaughtered this bad in a long time."
Chiyo heard the door open, and saw an old woman hobble in a fast as she could.
"My baby Ryou!! Where is he?" The woman cried out.
Iida and Uraraka tried to hold her back.
"Miss, please, he's in no condition to see anyone right now!" Iida said.
All Might came out to greet the woman. "Miss, I'm sorry, but we're not accepting public visitors right now."
The woman glared at All Might. "I'm Ryou's Grandmother. And I'll be damned if I leave here without seeing my boy. I could barely sleep last night wondering where he was. Now, Mr. Number One Hero, where the..." She looked over at Iida and Uraraka, then turned back to All Might. "...where in blazes is my boy?"
All Might sighed and pulled across the curtain. Grandmother Ryou nearly burst into tears as she saw her grandson in the bed, bruised and beaten.
"No...no...Ryou..." She went to his side, and sat in a chair. "Wake up, baby. It's your Grandmother. Please...please...please wake up."
Iida lowered his head, clenching his teeth. Uraraka just stood there speechless, a sad look on her face.
"Who did this to him?" Grandmother Ryou said, looking at All Might.
"We don't know at the moment. We're unsure about who could have done this to him." All Might said. "As you see...I'm not in the best condition myself.
"Urg..." Ryou blinked...slowly sitting up straight. "Grandma...? Iida...? Uraraka...? What...what happened? I remember...I remember...." Ryou suddenly widened his eyes. "No! No, no, no, no. Evol...I mean...Gemn. He's-"
Ryou's Grandmother pulled Ryou into a hug. "Oh my god, Ryou...thank goodness you're alive."
Ryou looked over at his friends, and All Might. "I...I'm happy I can see you all. But..."
Iida extended his hand, holding out Ryou's Zi-O Ridewatch. "They found this next to you. We managed to find someone that could fix it...somewhat. At least it looks brand new."
Ryou grabbed his Ridewatch, and clenched it tightly. "Doctor Genus."
Ryou's Grandmother widened her eyes. "Ryou, what did you say?"
As if flicking a switch, Izuku Midoriya staggered out to Iida and Uraraka.
"Midoriya!" Uraraka gave him a hug, relieved her friend was safe.
"Grandma, do you know someone named Doctor Genus?" Ryou asked her.
Ryou's Grandmother gulped. "Dr. Genus was a researcher working with your father on a secret project. I'm not entirely sure what it was about, but he disappeared after your parents deaths. Did he do this to you?"
