The Voice of a Hero (Katsuki Bakugou xOC)

Chapter 16

Hayley POV

I was in pain, no matter how many painkillers they gave me, it never seemed to work. But nothing could compare to the emotional pain I was feeling, I had let my parents down and even Katsuki. He hadn't even come to see me, his definitely disappointed...

Mercury... Why Does my memory seem fuzzy about him

"That bastard, he used his quirk on me, I knew he would and yet I let my guard down..."

"Great... now I'm talking to myself, yeah, totally sane."

I heard the door creek open and couldn't care to look... Probably Izuku coming in with more injuries...

Normal POV

Hayley's back was turned to the door as the figure approached. A shadow fell over her covered body and slowly placed their hands over her shoulder...

"Poor little Song bird... seems like your wings have been clipped"

Hayley was paralyzed as she came to what was happening. Mercury had his hands around her throat squeezing so that she couldn't breath, "You know, I always knew you'd follow the hero path, just like that idiot brother of yours." 

Hayley tried to move her limbs but nothing would respond to her demands. Mercury was straddling her and kept squeezing at her throat, "You know, I should have just let you tell those idiotic friends of yours who I really was, but then, where would the fun in that be? That's why I altered your thoughts with my illusion quirk. If I hadn't done that then maybe we wouldn't have been here, with me trying to kill you." Mercury's evil grin was fading from Hayley's sight as her eyes forced themselves closed from lack of oxygen. "You know, your smarter than you look, You need to stay out of other's business or else.." Mercury dragged his nose against her cheek, "You spark the interest of those who weren't looking for fire." Hayley rocked her body to throw him off, but she couldn't...

C'mon Hal, you've been in worse situations! Try to heat your body up!

"You've been a Thorn in my side since-"

The pleasure was gone, and so was Mercury?

Hayley sat up as she gasped for air. Frantically searching the room she found Mercury up against the wall by Katsuki

"You have some damn nerve touching her!" Katsuki snarled, Kirishima and Sero stood behind him nodding, "Tape him up duck face!" Jake's voice ordered, Sero slumped, "That's not my name..."

"Big Brother?" Hayley was confused as she watched the scene play out before her.

Katsuki had a hand on Mercury's throat while the other sparked with explosions while Kirishima stood protectively before Hayley and then Finally Jake stalked towards Mercury, "You have a lot of nerve showing up in public like this." Jake's arm warped into a dragon claw, "I had them take care of you, but this time, No one is here to stop me from ripping your throat open." Jake and Katsuki had the same glare. Mercury had hurt someone they both dearly cared about, "Tch, your always in the way Dragon boy, one day you won't be able to save her... they'll come fore her!" Mercury closed his eyes as he activated his illusion quirk

"I'll kill- wait, what the hell?!" Mercury felt his quirk unresponsive.

Jake's arm returned to normal and Katsuki's explosions disappeared for a brief moment.

"Stand Down Strom, We'll take it from here." Aizawa spoke as he walked in followed by Mic, Thomas and Diane.

"Mom?" Hayley's voice croaked, Diane's eyes fell on Hayley's now bruised throat and blood shot eyes, "That monster." Diane rushed to her daughter and pulled her close, "I'm so sorry honey." Hayley seemed so confused but the moment Aizawa looked over at her, it cancelled out Mercury's illusion quirk on her.
