Enemies, huh?

Rise of Osprey

"You've been in there for a long time. Geez why the hurry?!" Twice knocked on the door of the bathroom rapidly with his knuckle. I can't go out there, not like this! Hawks' wings were howling with pain as the new black feathers grew in to replace the brilliant maroon he was so used to. His mind was reeling, his body was screaming...with a gasp of sudden dizziness, Hawks stumbled and gripped the wall. He slid his back down it until his rump hit the floor and he gripped his agonized, throbbing head. New, strange thoughts were forcing their way in, as if a new part of him was trying to break its way into the limelight for the first time. These different thoughts...they made him sick.

But the more sickly he felt, the more he could feel a smile creeing its way along his cheeks. Then, for the first time in a long time, the pain in his body began to ebb away. Instead, he felt his limbs slowly regain their strength and he stood up with help from the wall. He looked at himself in the mirror again, and felt himself grin. His golden eyes had become a blood red color, and his brillaint wings were as dark as his newly bloodied up heart. He felt...good, no, great! Slicking his hair back with his hand, he winked in the mirror at himself and turned. His mind was hazy from whatever happened before he transformed, but he decided he didn't care. Whoever he was previously, they were gone.

Now Osprey was here, and he was here to stay.

Opening the door Osprey made his way out and looked at the villains still out in the bar room, and Dabi frowned. "You've...certainly changed..." he started. Osprey smirked and nodded. "Yep, I sure have." He growled with an evil smile plastered on his face. "Don't really understand what happened, but I feel good!" He stretched and punched Dabi in the arm harshly. Dabi grimaced and rubbed his shoulder as Osprey turned around. "Will you guys just shut up? I can't get any sleep with all your-" Osprey looked at the newcomer, who was a young female high schooler with black hair and blue eyes, freckles dotting her cheeks and bridge of her nose.

Osprey smirked widely as the girl began backing away from him. "Shigaraki? Explain. Now." She growled, never taking her eyes off of Osprey as he walked towards her. "Oh, so you got yourself a feisty one, huh?" He said, grinning. "Rogue, this is Osprey. He joined two days ago." Rogue opened her mouth to speak but Osprey cut in front of her. "Rogue, Rogue! What an adorable and rebellious name." He chuckled under his breath and Rogue gulped slowly. He grabbed her wrist and breathed in deeply. He felt her cringe and he chuckled. "Get away from me, you creep!" She shouted. "Osprey!" He couldn't let go.

He could see the fear and rage in the girl's eyes, and yet he didn't let go. What am I doing? Suddenly a sharp pain shot through Osprey's head and he gripped the side of it, and Rogue wrenched her wrist free and quickly backed further away from him. "Woah." When Osprey opened his eyes, he felt dizzy. He slumped onto one of the barstools and winced at all the eyes turned on him. "What...happened?" He looked at his wings and his eyes widened. The black feathers were gone, and had been replaced with the old reddish colored ones from before. Hawks was back, and it was official. It wasn't just Hawks himself anymore; Osprey was now a part of him.

And there was nothing he could do about it.
