XXII

guess who's late, again 

I took cover under one of bar countertop as the front of the hideout was busted open. All Might rushed in immediately taking action. Some old guy, A tree man, and Edgeshot. 

What.

Edgeshot is a cool dude. 

I like his ninja vibe. 

But made I just have a thing for mysterious people who could easily kill me. A bit weird but it's not like I'm gonna let anyone judge me for it. 

Back to the story. 

I watched as Mr.Woody grabbed a hold of all the league members which he did. Edgeshot knocked Kurogiri out. Or least I hope he did. I slightly exposed myself a bit too much because I looked around and locked eyes with Bakugou. 

He saw me and I saw him. 

He saw I was hidden. That I wasn't in restrains by the heroes. And yet . . .

He didn't say anything.

He just went back to his conversation with All Might. As if I wasn't here. 

What's . . . Happening . . . 

Dabi was about to use his quirk but got knocked out. It made sense because he was covered in wood and fire would have been bad. 

The heroes won. 

They restrained the league and got Bakugou back.

I couldn't help but slightly smile at such a happy moment. 

That was until I heard a voice. One I hadn't heard in a long time. All for One . . . Shigaraki must have heard it as well because I saw him flinch. And suddenly I started choking. As if something was stuck in my throat. "(Y/N)?" I heard Bakugou say as I repeatedly coughed into my arm. Everyone else seemed to be feeling it as well for they started coughing too. 

As I opened my mouth a weird substance came out of me. It was dark and slowly covered my whole body. It covered all the league members, including Bakugou. 

I heard a scream. It came from one of the heroes. But I didn't get to see which one.  Because we no longer were in the hideout. But an area in the middle of the city. I fell on my hands and knees trying to support myself. 

I still had that nasty taste of whatever that was in my mouth. It was super gross. 

I looked up and saw Shigaraki . . . But he wasn't alone. "All for One . . . ?" I said in a weak voice. I couldn't believe it. I hadn't seen him in so long, at least not in person. He looked at me and nodded slightly. "Hello, Summoner. . . " 

All for One went on a speech to Shigaraki, saying it's okay if he failed once, he could fail a hundred times, and it would be okay. As long as you get better with each time. It was weird watching him be all nice considering he practically tortured me as a kid. 

I heard a large explosion come from the side, and the cause of it, I recognized them as U.A students. That wasn't part of the plan, was it? "Bakugou! Grab my hand!" 

The redhead said, reaching out his hand for Bakugou to grab a hold. 

But he hesitated. I looked at him as he stared up into the sky, at his escape. "Bakugou . . ." I said quietly. To be honest, I wanted him to leave. To be free from us. The villains. The bad guys. He must have had super hearing because he turned his head to look at me. 

I saw the emotion in his eyes. Guilt . . . But why? But I didn't last long, he blasted himself up to his friends and was gone. 

"Someone get him!" 

"Our long-range attackers are down!" 

"Summoner! Do something." Twice said. 

That's me.

"Summoner!" Toga yelled. 

Me . . . 

"(Y/N)!" 

. . . 

I looked up at their bodies get farther and farther away, before looking at everyone in the league. 

"It was no use . . ." 

Some didn't believe me, others did. But I didn't care what they thought. 

I didn't do this for me. 

I did it for him.

Bakugou Katsuki. 

My first love.

><><><><><>< 

"How are you doing, kid?" 

I sat quietly in his office. I looked down at the cards in my hands. Making them disappear and reappear. I had a sad expression on my face. I was tired. Scared. And alone. 

"I get it, this will get some getting used to."

"Aizawa, it's not that!" 

I lifted myself from the seat, looking at him as I clenched my hands into fists tightly. "My whole life has revolved around the league of villains. The only philosophy I know is that heros are bad! This isn't just weird for it, I-It's life-changing! I left behind my family . . . And for what? A chance to avoid going to jail?!" 

My father looked at me with pity. He knew everything I said was true, and that I was like any animal taken out of its habitat. I wasn't used to it.   "A chance to start over. That's what we are giving you. Live the life that was meant for you."

"Funny . . . That's what he told me too. . ."
