World's Gone To Sh-

No.9- Emptiness And A Story

"Wait, Todoroki you aren't going anywhere." Aizawa crossed his arms.
"I'd say he can handle it plus if he get bit on a limb maybe there's a chance to stop infection? It would be great as a tester!" Midoriya smiled and latched on to Todoroki's arm.
"Test-? Happy Face!" He scolded.
"I'm joking I don't take life that lightly.." He pouted.
"Well come on!" He quickly tugged the student away and put the dorms.

It nearly slipped his mind! With a groan he turned around half way to the main building and popped right back into dorm.
"Eraser Head." He called for re teachers attention.
"Are you going to steal another student?" He sighed.
"No. I uh just trust you. So.. Take care of my mom okay?" He slipped off the back pack and held it out.

"Your mom?"
"Yes. She was cremated, can you take care of her?" His one big innocent looking eye made it hard to even think of saying no. But the way he refered to the ashes was strange.. It was like he regarded her as alive.
"Of course." He took the back pack carefully, practically demonstrating he was going to take care of her.
"Thanks, it means a lot!" He gave a bright smile and waved them off.

Now he could get back to business.
"Sorry for the hold up." He apologised to the student who walked right back with him, no questions asked.
"You're fine." He reassured. Todoroki felt pity for Midoriya, his mother wasn't in a big portion of his life but ever since he reconnected with her He can't imagine what it could be like without her.

They rushed to the office where copies of addresses where whispering to them.
"Hey, so, copies?" He cut to the chace, they'd wasted enough time, enough pointless emotion, which was basically saying Bakugou wasted his time.
"Yes, I have them right here." He pointed to a large stack of papers.
"Sweet, you got a bag?" He water to stuff all the papers in a bag or something.
"Yes we prepared for just that." He lifted up a bag, the guy really was smart it was obvious he thought of a lot.

He happily stuffed the bag and ran out the building with Todoroki in tow.
"Let's go to your house first." Midoriya suggested. If Todoroki was worried about his family then it would get in the way of their work.
"Alright." He nodded.
"Lead the way then." He cocked his head up. Todoroki strip up and too the lead, leading him all the way through danger and to his traditional house which was thankfully intact.

They went on silently and searched around. They look through every book and cranny without finding anyone..
"We just wasted time.." Midoriya growled.
"I think Endeavour took them to safety or something.." He shrugged, why hadn't he come for his 'prodigy'?

"Whatever. We just need to get the next people."

Mrs. Bakugou attempted to comfort her son and follow Midoriya's directions but.. She knew that boy well, he needed space. So she slumped her shoulders in defeat and walked right back down the stairs.
"Ah. Mrs. Bakugou." The teacher greeted.
"I'm sorry for your loss, it must be hard.." He offered some pity.
"Would you like to discuss what happened?" He really needed to know but it felt wrong to ask a grieving widow..

"Sure.." She sighed deeply. The weight of the day hung on her shoulders heavily, maybe just talking about it would do her some good. The teacher led her to the comfort of the couch.
"I suppose I should start at the beginning?" She weakly smiled.
"Yes if you want."
"Well.."

"Hey Masaru!" She yelled through the house. Her husband came like a puppy, he's always been so adorable, that's a reason why she loved him so much.
"Yes sweetie?" He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist lovingly and nuzzled his face into her hair.
"We have to go shopping for dinner, we forgot to grab a few things, you want to come?"
"Of course!" He smiled. He was very happy it was their day off and he didn't want to spent a minute more away from his wife.

They left the comfort of their house and set off for the store. He watched his wife carefully skin through the items, seeing which ones would fit best. Satisfied with her last choice, she went to the clerk who lazily scanned the items, he was quite tired of his work.

"I think you'll like dinner." She chirped, tonight was going to be her husband's favorite!
"Well then I ca-" His smile turned into a jolt of dear when a loud groan stumbled across the air. Their confused eyes landed on a shuffling girl on Mrs. Bakugou's side. Both shared confused glances as the groaning, wordless woman walked forward.

Mr. Bakugou gulped and pulled his wife behind him.
"Are you alright?" He asked her.
"Um.. Do you need help?" Awkwardness settled in once she never replied. He took an uncertain step back as she stepped in too close for comfort. A scream demanded their gazes away from the woman and to someone struggling while someone snapped their jaws on top of them.

The husband quickly turned back and gasped as she lunged forward, on instinct he raised his arms to block only to scream as her teeth suck into his flesh.
"Masaru!" The wife yelped. She quickly threw up her fist and punched the woman, unlatching her teeth from her poor husband's arms. She shoved the woman as far as he strength could make her stumble.
"Are you okay!?" She turned to get husband and looks at the bloody arm.
"F-Fine honey, just call the police!" He begged.

They both gasped when they heard more groaning as Mrs. Bakugou fumbled for her phone.
"We have to get out of here!" She clutched Her husband's good arm and rushed down the street to the safety of their home, but not without unwanted company stumbling behind them. Their groans grew louder as if they were begging for more flesh.
