Dabi POV

Have you ever hated someone so much you dedicated your entire life to getting away from them?

No?

I have. It wasn't easy. In fact, I didn't always look like I do. Like a purple emo raisin. I looked normal. Hell, I had a different hair color.

Then, everything went down the drain. I was hanging with Shigaraki in the hideout playing Mario Kart when Toga called us downstairs.

"Hold on crazy!" I called.

We finished the round we were playing and went downstairs. Some new guy was talking to Kurogiri.

"Who's new guy?" Shigaraki asked in his usual raspy voice.

"I'm Reverse." He has black hair and a clock in the middle of his forehead.

"Quirk?" I ask actually curious. It definitely has something to do with time.

"I'll show you." He bore his eyes into mine and they went white. He muttered something under his breath and I felt myself shrink. When I stopped I looked and my hands. They were.... normal?

I looked up and everyone was gaping at me.

"What?"

"Dabi? You look like a 14 year old." Toga giggles.

My eyes widen. "What?!"

I run to the nearest bathroom which is connected to Twice's room. I look in the mirror and staring back at me is my 14 year old self. My hair is bright red and my skin has no burns to be found. I back away from it slowly and touch my face. Then, I scream.

People come rushing in and I try to hide behind things.

"Go away!" My voice is high pitched and child like.

"Dabi, calm down. You don't look as bad as you think you do."  Twice taunts.

"Shut up Twice! I'm 14!"

"Physically yes but mentally no." Clock head says.

"Shut it Clock head." I snap. "When does this wear off?"

"When you come into contact with a blood relative. After that is takes about 30 minutes to change you back. At some points your memory could be changed into that of your 14 year old self. You have the emotions of your 14 year old self as well.

I feel color drain from my face.

"I can't go to my family! I can't!" I start crying and I beg myself to stop.

Everyone stops talking as I tried to calm myself.

"I worked so hard to get away from him I can never go back! He'll kill me."

"Who will kill you?" Kurogiri asks calmly.

"My father! He hates me! Ever since my youngest brother was born he's hated my guts!"

"Is there any other family members you can go see?"

I take a deep breath. "My mother. She's in a hospital though. The mental ward. We'll have to sneak in."

"Who is your mother?"

"Like hell I'd tell you! I know where her room is. I just need someone to get me in."

"Can I get some blood from you Dabi? I want to know if it tastes any different." Toga smiles and I back away.

"No crazy. Let's go in a few hours. I'm going to my room." I start walking out of Twice's room and into mine. I lock the door and sink against it. Memories flash into my head of him locking me in my room when I couldn't stop my flames. Me begging to get out. His laughter. Tears are trailing down my face and I hold back screams and cries. Eventually a strangled sob escapes and I run to bury myself into my bed. I sob and I know people can hear me. My mind pulls me away and into something else.
