Another Chance (My Hero Academia)

Chapter 41

*Riki's POV*

I groaned loudly when my alarm clock went off, slapping it with my hand until it stopped. I muttered a bunch of curse words about how I didn't want to go to school because it was too early and I had to wear a uniform. I slowly hobbled downstairs, ready to eat breakfast.

I made some cereal, not really wanting to make something since I didn't feel good. Was I still sick? Maybe just a bit, only a little cough at random times. What really wasn't good was my mental state.

Kiko...

Flashes of what I saw, from when I was a kid to a couple days ago, came into my sight. I was absolutely horrified by the pictures that held so many details. I'm surprised I still remember it all.

A vision of me and my friends first meeting. We were all in a big room, not realizing that this would be temporary. All for One wanted us to be friends. Us being the foolish and naive kids we were didn't know any better. We became friends. Family. We were all we had. The scary adults through the windows were way more intimidating than an angry parent...we could see the murderous glow in their eyes.

A couple weeks, maybe a month passed before we were all separated into our separate rooms. Of course it wasn't that easy. We were all fought with first. The adults in lab coats came into the room, holding chains and straight jackets. Cowering in a corner, all of us losing control of our quirks, we screamed and kicked to be let go. We were all bleeding by then end of it, our weak bodies being dragged into separate rooms as we tried to scream for each other. I was flung back into a wall before my door slammed shut. From past my tears, I remember seeing all white and one silver looking thing that appeared to be some kind of table or bed.

The next flash I saw was just fast glimpses of what they did to me. Screams were heard in the background as I tried to break out of my restraints. I laid on a metal table, my wrists, waist, and ankles being tightly strapped down to where I turned purple. Then, my own screams were heard as I was tested on. I believe that was the first time I had a quirk injected into me. It hurt more than anything I've ever felt, making me pass out almost instantly.

Now, flashes of blood, dead bodies, weird gadgets, animals, and workers all came into view. The first time I was forced to fight, it was with a rabid dog that was starved. I was backed up into a corner as it growled lowly, walking towards me as it readied itself to pounce. As the dog did so...I heard a ripping pop come from in front of me. I slowly looked up...and the dog that was once in the air...was splattered all over the place, including myself.

I quickly shook my head, getting up and dumping my soggy cereal out. I had barely eaten, maybe a couple bites, before the flashbacks came. I roughly rubbed my eyes, refusing to let the tears fall as I teleported back upstairs. I rushed into my bathroom and tried to distract myself with random things as I got ready. I yanked my uniform on and grabbed my bag before heading downstairs. I walked out the door, slamming it shut and locking it before I walked off. I teleported to Bakugo's street and saw him grumpily walking ahead.

I sprinted off to him before hopping on his back, hearing him yell in surprise.

"Goddamnit, you fucking half n' half bastard!" He practically yelled in shock.

I just giggled and clung onto him, "Good morning, beautiful!" I smiled and kissed his cheek.

He abruptly stopped walking, his face turning bright red as he glanced over at me. With a huff of annoyance, he propped me up and began walking again.

"So how ya been?" I smiled, leaning my head on his shoulder to stare at his beautiful face.

(*don'tsayitdon'tsayitdon'tsayit*)

"Fine" he grumbled

"You turned pretty red back there." I teased and his jaw clenched. "I'm starting to think no one tells you how pretty you are."

He bit his lip as his face turned pink, "What's your fucking point, nerd?"

"Well...if no one will say it. I will. You're beautiful." I said and pecked his cheek.

"Tch, whatever." He grumbled while his face turned even pinker.

I chuckled and squished his cheeks together, making him growl at me.

"Stop doing that, you bastard!!" He yelled while whipping his head around.

"Oh you're just saying that because we're almost at UA!"

"Fuck off" he growled and dropped me on the ground.

I landed on my feet and watched him walk off, "Bye, my beautiful Hedgehog!" I yelled and waved at him.

He just kept his back turned to me as he flipped me off, walking up to the school.

"Should've stayed with me...cause I can teleport." I chuckled before appearing in the classroom.

"HOLY SHIT!!" Denki screeched

"WAH!!" Broccoli head yelped

"AH!" Mina and Uraraka screamed and clung onto each other.

"Good morning!" I said with a wave, acting as if I totally didn't just randomly appear in the classroom.

"Warn us next time!!" Denki breathed

"I can't really do that unless I text you, which is a waste of time." I shrugged while plopping into my seat.

"You're scary" Denki said

"I know" I smiled

"How are you doing?" Deku asked

"Good. It feels weird to be back, not gonna lie." I responded

"Yeah, it does feel weird to have you back. But we're all happy you're safe."

I smiled softly, "Thanks"

"You're—"

"HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET HERE BEFORE ME, YOU HALF N' HALF BASTARD?!" A loud voice yelled.

"That's not to Todoroki.." Shoji spoke before everyone looked at me.

"I can teleport...duh"

"Tch" He huffed while pushing Deku to the side so he could sit in his seat.

"Aww did you want to see me walk in?" I pouted while leaning over on his desk.

"WHAT?! HELL FUCKING NO!!" He screamed in my face.

"Shut up" a grumpy voice groaned before a loud thump was heard.

I snickered at my father who was now laying face first on the floor.

"The forest training camp was supposed to help you develop your special moves, but since certain events happened, you will be doing something a bit different. Next semester you guys will be tested to see if you are worthy of your provisional licenses." My father spoke and the class loudly cheered. "Go get into your hero costumes and meet me at Gym Gamma."

We all rushed up and grabbed our cases before dashing out the door and to the locker rooms.
