Broken

Chapter 36

"Wait, how am I even going to fight him? I mean, he has control of my body."

"Well, you have to figure that out. I know you can do that though! I mean, you got a very smart head on your shoulders!"

"Thanks."

You turn to look around the empty space. While staring into the space, you remember something that you had attempted to forget completely.

When Kacchan had bullied you during Middle School, you would always see the creature once he left, when you were experiencing negative emotions, but when you were experiencing positive emotions, the creature would never appear. No matter how hard you tried, it would never appear. But, it appeared when you experienced negative emotions...

"I got it!"

You turn to face Nana Shimura.

"The creature must feed off of negative emotions!"

"How do you figure?"

"Whenever I experienced negative emotions, the creature would appear with ease. However, when I was experiencing positive emotions, it would never appear."

"Huh. Interesting. So how will you fight it?"

"Um..." 

You pace around for a few minutes until the answer hits you.

"If I think about positive things, it should make the creature weak enough to where I can control my body again!"

"There you go!"

You turn away from Nana and begin to picture all the happy times you have experienced. The time when you would watch All Might on your parent's computer, when All Might passed down One For All, and training with All Might down by the beach.

You open your eyes and see the same pitch-black space. You turn to Nana again.

"I, I thought it would work..."

"Well, how many happy times did you think of?"

"Three."

"Well, maybe you need to think about more happy times?"

"Maybe..."

You close your eyes and begin to picture the time when you met your friends Iida and Uraraka, the day Todoroki starting hanging out with you at lunch, getting to compete in the sports festival and so much more.

When you open your eyes, you are in the same space from before but, it was changing. You lock eyes with Nana.

"Well done kid. You are going back."

"Yes!"

"Oh! There is something you need to know!"

"Hm?"

"Time works differently here!"

"What?!"

Before Nana can respond again, everything starts to fade away. 

The next thing you know, you are standing on a roof of some kind of building. In front of you laid a.. bomb?!

You quickly pull out your phone to see what day it was, because it definitely wasn't near the day you last managed to escape!

As soon as the lock screen pops up, you see the date.

It was July 4. It had been 2 months since you last escaped?! Nana really was telling the truth. Time really does work differently when you are trapped inside your own mind.

While looking at your phone, you get a massive headache. You collapse to the ground and hold your head in pain. You close your eyes hoping it would help, but doesn't. All of a sudden, images begin to flash into your mind. You were seeing what the creature saw the last two months while you were trapped!

*Author's P.O.V*

Hi! This is short compared to the last chapter, but there is a reason! The next chapters will be flashbacks to the past two months and everything that went on during those two months! I felt that they should have their own chapters, so the next chapters will be about the flashbacks! 

I plan to publish the next chapter on May 10, in case anyone was curious. I hope you enjoy the next chapters!
