My eyes went wide. My breathe got shaky. Too many things were appearing in my head at the same time it was giving me a headache. I just felt something snap.

Trigger Warning: Panic Attacks
————————————————————————————
Midoriya POV
I can't... I can't.. I'm weak.. worthless.. before I knew it I was bursting into tears and was just- yelling. Everything around me seemed to disappear as it went black. Everything at once was too much to handle..

Todoroki POV
Looks like I snapped something.. I think he has his emotions back.. but I think I snapped something bad..! I'm internally panicking of what to do. Midoriya is yelling hugging himself and full on crying. I didn't know what to do! I just did the first thing that came to my mind: wrapping my arms around him and pulling him close. I started to whisper things my mother would tell me when I was crying. I think it actually calmed him down as his yelling vanished and his bawling went to small sniffles. His arms seemed to give up and just fell to his side. I still kept my arms around him and kept him close. I never realized how short he was until now.

Midoriya POV
My fault! My fault- huh? I felt something warm embrace me. The black around me started to disappear and all I could see was being in Todorokis embrace. Not going to lie it made my feel safe.. so safe that it made my calm down. My arms gave up and just fell to my side. I just stood there accepting the comfortable peace and quiet between us. I then quietly whispered. "Thank you.. Shoto.." I heard Todoroki slightly gasp and that made me slightly smile. He then started to hug me tighter. I started laughing by his action. "Let me go Todoroki hah!" He let me go. "S-sorry, I got a little excited." "It's fine!" I smiled and he smiled back. "Seems that's all I had to do to get your emotions back." "Yeah but it wasn't pleasant, heh.." I said nervously. I took the amulet I had that was hiding in my dress i forgot I was wearing out. I slightly blushed remembering I was wearing a dress. "May I please change..? Heh.." I said nervously. "Oh, of course." Todoroki said as he went to grab me some new clothes. I stared out at the window and something new was telling me I had to go back to the ocean. I had an unpleasant feeling being here without someone to protect me. The ocean makes me feel more safe than anything. I figured out how to open said window and slowly climbed out and went into a tree and went down. I spotted the ocean so I ran into that direction. My legs were moving on their own at this point. Something was telling me to go back to the ocean, and something was telling me to go back to Todoroki. I yelled again trying to get myself to stop and I fell backwards instead. "Ow.." I mumbled. "Oh, hey are you okay?" I heard what I assumed a woman say in a very gentle and kind voice. I looked up and saw a woman wearing a cloak of white and her face being covered. Her white hair went all the way to her waist and she was rather tall. Nothing looked threatening about her.

"Yeah I'm fine.." I said as I somehow managed to get myself up. "You seem uneasy about something.." she said again in her calm voice. "No no it's fine, now excuse me but I must leave." I said as I tried to walk away. She grabbed my arm and pulled me back. "He was curious about you and had suspicions.. now he wants you to see for himself.. he.. may need you for something important." She said in a more vicious voice then before as she put a cloth over half my face and I started to feel drowsy..

*Meanwhile with Todoroki*
Todoroki POV
I got new clothes for Midoriya to change into and when I came back I noticed he was gone. "Midoriya?!" I yelled out. I noticed that the window was open and there no sign of a forced entrance. He.. must of left.. but why..? What did I do wrong?
*Another Flashback*
Natsuo! What is dad doing to him! "Stop it!" I managed to yell out. Natsuo gave me a glare that told me to run. My dads voice then echoed through the whole room, "He is just a distraction to you Shoto. A disgrace to your studies to be king and take down the water god All Might. He has no reason to be involved in your life anymore." "No! You can't make me isolated from my own brothers life! Especially in your hands-! Gah!" Natsuo yelled out right before he was thrown into the wall. That feeling of being left behind and being lonely not knowing why broke him.
*Flashback over*
I sighed and trembled a bit. I hate that feeling a lot, why am I feeling that again now..?

Midoriya POV
*Flashback*
"Kacchan.." I started crying as I cried onto his shoulder. "Shut your mouth Deku.. shush.." Kacchan tried to calm me down the best he could. "They.. they.. took her.. just like that.. now.." I couldn't say anymore. My emotions were too wired up. "Stupid Deku... I will make them pay one day you bet!" Kacchan tried to reassure me and make me laugh but it didn't really help. "No one should treat my Deku like that. Only I can! From here on out I promote myself to protect you from danger! Stupid villains! I will make them pay!" I just hugged Kacchan tighter and thanked him. A few seconds later a couple of harpoons were sent our way. Kacchan pushes me out of the way and got himself grazed by the arm. "Kacchan!" I yelled out. "It's fine Deku! Tch.." he yelled back. I looked up to see 3 people looking scary and holding those harpoons. Kacchan quickly swam over and grabbed by wrist and started swimming me to safety.
*Flashback over*
I can't see anything.. everything is black.. something is wrong.. I can feel it. I hear a laugh soon after and that's when I knew, I was in trouble. Big. Trouble.
