"Come with me," I told him, letting him follow me to my bedroom. In one of the boxes I kept in my closet was were I kept everything I brought with me when I escaped. I dropped the box on the floor as I began digging through it.
"Hey kid, just curious," Keigo started. "Remember when you showed me those notebooks with all those names written down, were those..."
"The names of people I killed? Yes."
He sighed, "I don't like when you say you killed them. It wasn't your fault and I'm going to remind you until you believe it for yourself."
I flipped over the back of the pictures with the coordinates of the location written down. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and began typing the location into the GPS, I felt Keigo peer over my shoulder.
"Found it. Okay if i'm going to use my quirk I need to go here." I showed him the pictures of the destroyed testing location. "It's the only place I feel safe enough using it, it's far away from any sort of civilization. I don't really like the fact that you're coming with me, but I know you won't let me stop you."
He smiled. "Okay, I'll give you some time to change then just meet me in the living room when you're done." He shut the door behind him. I trembled with anxiety as I changed clothes for the day.
Was I really doing this? What if something goes wrong? What if I can't control it?
Before I was ready to leave I opened my bedside table and grabbed the notebook holding everything about I knew about my quirk.
I slowly made my way to the living room where Keigo had been for years past fifteen or so minutes.
"You all ready?" I nodded slipping into my sneakers, just before I opened the door he interrupted my actions.
"Hold on, let me fly us, we'll get there quicker." We walked out to the balcony, he lifted me into his arms, letting me adjust my grip around him before he stepped off.
My body tensed as we began falling, soon the wind blew through my hair as he aimed his body higher. I looked over his shoulder, watching the world beneath me.
"Are you afraid of heights dove?" He asked.
"Well, no, but yes. Uh I've never been this high off the ground before." I stammered, clinging tighter around his neck.
"You know I'll never drop you right? Plus didn't you say you could levitate?"
"Dummy, I haven't done that in years so I probably forgot how." He giggled, continuing to look at the location on my phone then back to they sky.
Someday, once I learn to levitate again, I won't have to hold onto him anymore.
He landed on the ground right outside the fence of the building. "Oh shit." He muttered as he walked with me through a hole in the wired fence. "So you did all this?"
I let out a breath. "Yep." We walked closer to the rubble, on the ground was the large sign reading 'Testing Site Q' I brushed some of the dirt off then lifted it up to show him. "You uh- you work for the government right?"
"Yeah, but you know how the government has different branches, though I do remember hearing about this on the news years ago." He tapped his finger to his chin as he thought momentarily. "They didn't know what happened, but it was said there were no survivors."
I scratched the back of my head thinking back to the day. "Yeah that was me. Please tell me you won't tell anyone."
"Of course not dove." He wrapped an arm around my shoulder. "That was your only chance at escaping, I don't blame you for doing what you had to do."
