Remedy: Katsuki Bakugou x Reader (Sequel)

Chapter 7: Rescue of a Lifetime

Before reading this chapter, make sure you’ve seen the first half of season 3 to MHA. I’m heavily following the events of the Hideout Raid Arc (Episodes 8-12) And this chapter may feel heavily confusing and/or rushed if not having seen said episodes. Of course I’ve changed some events that happened within this 4 episode radius, but please keep my warning in mind.

Tension was at an all time high, it’s never reached these levels despite how many times Dabi and yourself had nearly killed each other in childish spats. All you could do is sit on the floor, hugging your brown jacket to your chest in a shaken fit of confusion. The seizure had ravished your body fatally, it wouldn’t stop shaking, there’s no strength in your arms and legs, not to forget that the last six months of memory had came back all at once like taking a bullet from a gun to the head. Seizures cause the brain to emit electrical pulses continuously, never once taking a break; it was quite literally the spark you needed to regain the lost memories. However, regaining memories of your heroic past while you’re in the stomach of the beast, aka, the League of Villains, made now the worst time to be a hero with escape and keeping a low profile next to the impossible.

Shigaraki tuts, scratching at the scarred pale flesh of his neck. He’s stressed, the last thing he needs right now is for you to be out of commission. “I need Katsuki tonight anyways,” Shigaraki signed behind the palm of the grey hand that hugged his face. It was true Shigaraki didn’t need you for the mission at hand tonight. Besides, since Bakugou’s enlistment into the League, he hasn’t gone on any missions at all.

“And who said I wanted to go on this mission?” Bakugou bared his teeth with a growl. He had no say in the mission.

Knock knock knock

Everyone went silent out of the blue. They’re all so unaccustomed to polite acts such as the knocking of a door nowadays when all they ever do is invite themselves within the bar since it was their hideout afterall. Each head within the bar had been turned and arched towards the main entrance of the bar. A tall brown oak door with black jingle bells that dangled from a bronze chipped doorknob. Even yourself and Bakugou followed their example. The two of you really couldn’t care who was on the other side, either way, escaping was a must.

“Pizza Delivery!” Called a grown man on the outer side of the door. His voice was muffled, evident that there was an falseness behind his tone.

“Delivery?” Bakugou muttered with furrowed brows. As if anyone in this rathole would order a pizza if their hideout is so damn secret nobody has found it yet.

However you perked up and snatched Bakugou’s pant leg in order to grab his attention. You recognized that voice from anywhere, and so should he. “Dad…” You whispered in such a ghostly breath.

Bakugou saw the glittering excitement in those blue eyes of yours as they connected with his crimson, the excitement he’s long missed. “I don’t think it’s Aizawa,” Bakugou struggled to keep his voice low.

“I meant AM,” you corrected him with a snicker.

“I’ve never heard you refer to AM as dad,” the blonde smirked. “Can’t believe we’re using Shitty Hair’s code words either,” it was the first day after Kirishima had learned of your heredity that he came up with a code word for All Might, AM. It was to keep your origins a secret and safe to prevent situations such as this with villains surrounding and watching your every move. Who knew the code word would come in handy now?

“We can get out of here!” You smiled brightly.

“Just what are you two whisperin’ about?” Toga poked her head into the conversation like the nosy girl she was.

“Forget them,” Shigaraki hissed. “Who’s at the damn door?”

“I was waiting for you to let me get it!” Toga jumped at the offer with a skip of her feet and a knife at hand. “I claim whoever’s on the other side!” She sang happily with a crackling voice. Her hand clutched the doorknob, only for the entire wall to break away upon contact. Bricks were flying! Toga was thrown too from one side of the hideout to the other, not like anybody jumped to help her. The rest of the villains ducked to avoid the explosion while Bakugou and yourself were just out of reach for the explosion.
