Coming to terms with my feelings I sighed.

Why did I fall in love with an idiot like him?

Just thinking about it made me feel hopeless. Well now wasn't the time for me to thoroughly think through my feelings. I- no we had fish we had to save. Kirishima had poked his head out of the water, once more, nothing seemed to be happening to him. With a slight hesitation, I slowly ascend out of the water.

The first thing I felt was fear, which eased into unease. Slowly turning into warmth. For the first time against my scales and skin, I felt the wind and the sunshine. It was strange but oddly warm?

"Open your eyes!" Kirishima exclaimed.

Slowly I opened my eyes, I closed it just as fast though. Because of the strong light that shone directly into my eyes. I had never experienced such light before. I opened my eyes once more this time my eyes easied to the sudden and unknown brightness.

For the first time in my life, I had set my eyes on the sun. It was bright, so bright it was even hurting my eyes. Even so, I couldn't tear my eyes away from it. It was so beautiful. I stared in aw, I looked at the blue sky, it was so fast, bright, big. The ocean seemed big but the sky seemed even bigger. It seemed too out of my reach. My existence felt so small in that instant.

This....

It was so beautiful, I could feel every shaky breath that left my lips.

It was amazing and humans had all this for themselves.

I was jealous that humans got to leave in such a bright and stunning place. Where everything seemed so peaceful. While we got to live in a place so deep in the sea that hardly any light got to us. While everyone was deep in despair. They got to leave peacefully on such a bright place.

Humans really are greedy.

They have such a nice life but they still want more. That they take away our families kill us for what? To show off to their friends, families

'Hey son, guess what you old man fished up today' his child will excitedly look at the scales his father brought home. His wife would marvel at the beauty. Neither of them knowing that the scales they are currently looking at is from a little child much like their own son. They'll laugh about it and make nothing of it. Such cruel and ruthless creatures that killed Her. Get to live in such a heavenly place.

We were so happy, I was so happy yet they had to, those cursed humans, they had too..!

"Bakugou..." I felt the warm familiar feeling of Kirishima's hand on my shoulder. With a swift motion, I looked over at him. "Are you okay?" his face writhing with worry. My thoughts stopped as I looked into Kirishima worry riddled eyes. For a moment I all I wanted to do was tell him everything.

About Her, about how much of a coward I am, How I am not so strong. How am just an emotional wreck, but...

"I am okay." I lied, I let out a shaky breath. He couldn't get involved in my own issues. "It is just my first time seeing something so beautiful," I said looking back at the sky.

"Yes, same..." We both looked at the sky basking in the sun for the first time. "Enough of this let's go save our friends and my family." He smiled his sun which rivalled the sun.

I stared at him for a few more seconds before turning around to face the boat.

I could never tell him if he ever stopped smiling at me. I don't know what I would do.

Yes, I will deal with everything myself.

I don't need anyone.

With that I closed my eyes, taking in one last shaky breathe. Before putting on my normal scowling face.

I just need to act like myself. Bakugou, the mean and cunning Bakugou. That is me.

I felt my heart clench a little but I ignored it. This was me.

"AHHH" I screamed in terror

"It's too late!" Mina screamed in despair.

Denki's screams of terror and pain could be heard all over our closed space. Red splattered all over the floor of the cabin.
