AS MY EYES GENTLY FLUTTER
Open, I catch sight of A worried Mirio hovering over me, alongside a beaming white lamp. At the sight of my wakening he seems Slightly relieved, and chuckles anxiously "...we've really gotta stop meeting each other like this." My throat was dry. I tried to speak, but Nothing came out.

"Don't speak dear! You're going to tear up Your throat- you did quite the number On your tonsils they were severely swollen. I had to remove Them, your going to be Sore for a while. I couldn't completely heal your body. Going into a fight like that. It's no wonder You were so beaten up."
I sigh in defeat, easing back in the cott.

Something dawned on me.
A fight? Something tells me I'm supposed to remember that.
But I can't. I can't remember Anything that happened yesterday...

My father Is no where near me...how could he have managed to whipe my Memories so Easily?

Was I still awake? Or was this just a dream? I took my index finger, Fur subtly sprouting around it; I unsheeth that one claw and drag it across my wrist.

I hissed out in pain, Mirio gasps grabbing my hand, "W-Why would you do that!?" The Recovery girl shakes her head in dissapointment. "Hurting yourself Like this is Absolutely Uncalled for."

Aizawa. Where was he?
Why wasn't he here scolding me.
Why couldn't I speak. I just wanted to tell them...I needed to tell them.

But what was it I needed to tell them?

My breathes hitch. I Place my hand over my throat, my shaky breathes echoed Around my mind. "Somethings up with her..." Mirio points out. Recovery girl Grabs a pen and paper from her desk, giving it to me. "(F/N), use this to communicate, while I fetch your prescription." With that she dispersed from the room

We exchanged weary glances, I felt myself growing lightheaded.
The urge to bite him gnawed at my brain. Animalistic rage is radiating around my body. I can't figure out what it means.

I scribble down My thoughts. I didn't really know much Japanese, nor English or very much of any literature for that matter, but I knew enough to be able to at least communicate with him.

What did I do? Reading the paper, Mirio tilts his head Suprisingly. "What did you do?" He hesitated. "Do...Do You not remember what happened yesterday? The attack on the USJ-" he trails off. I simply respond shaking my head no.

He's wide eyed for a moment, which spooks me. Are you afraid of me? He merely smiles Sheepishly scratching his neck, "No, of course not- Why would I be scared of you?" I Sigh in relief.
Whatever I did yesterday, it's bound to be evil right?

"(F/N), you saved People yesterday. I don't know what you'd call this, but I Think you've just become a hero." I blushed at that, hiding my features behind my tail.

Where's Kenai? He beams, giving me a thumbs up. "I wouldn't worry Too much about him. Recovery girl took care of his Wounds Earlier." I nodded in response, still wondering If He Was somewhere around here.

Why aren't you with nejire and tamaki? He shrugs off the question slightly, "They'll be fine Without me for a day. Dont worry about that, just let me be here for you.." i blushed looking down anxiously not realising he'd taken my hand rubbing soothing circles in reassurance.

I was glad to have him here. Honestly I don't know how I'd deal with this alone. I couldn't for the life of me figure out where Aizawa was. He just kept saying he'd be fine, so that was getting a little annoying.
