a life of fire 

burning inside oneself 

as days and nights intertwine and pass into nothingness

a desire for truth as lies surround and twirl 

the fire burns a deeper message 

we are not alone 


tokoyami was brought to the dorms after almost a year of endless torture 

not physical torture 

but mental/phycological

even so 

when he was found his body was lying flat against a hard stone table, restraints on arms and legs holding him still

but the restraints were worn by fruitless struggling wearing them thin

eyes closed tight, face and feathers drenched in tears, tears and blood that was produced from eyes and mouth 

the teachers who had been searching endlessly for almost a year, only able to find him because of a financially poor pregnant woman went into labour who complained of a noisy neighbour crying out all night and day endlessly, nurses who seemed interested in her story alerted the police who alerted the hero's 

and they had finally found the poor teenager in his poor state 

when they had brought tokoyami back they had found two shockingly new things about the raven 

he no longer had emotions, no happiness, no sadness, just a factful intelligent robot 

no matter what the teachers did they couldn't even get the child to crack a smile 

and when asking what had happened they had learnt that the child either deliberately refused to speak/respond or due to the sleep torture he simply had damaged his vocal cords so he was unable to speak 

instead, he would write down what had happened on a sheet of paper or used darkshadow who also lost everything other than a voice and protective instincts 

and what he wrote shocked, horrified and scarred the teachers and students to their very core 

but tokoyami was simply unfazed, nothing could shock him now 

but they didn't dare push tokoyami 

with everything that he had gone through they had no right 

instead, they complied to this new version of their classmate 

they would read what he had to say and showered his unconditional love and support

it was their only way to help 

in their hearts, they hoped/prayed that tokoyami would one day obtain the ability of speech and emotions 

but if not 

they would care for him anyway 

he was not to be taunted 

never 

if only the villain knew what they were getting into when they did 

"oi! birdy, I'm talking to ya!" they pestered as they fought one on one with the raven 

"geeze, emo freak, would it kill ya to smile?" the villain laughed as they sent it's slime quirk to trap the raven 

only for tokoyami to avoid the attack fully 

and send his own quirk at him 

darkshadow was as big as the Paris tower and longer than the Buckingham palace 

and this was during a hot sunny day in the middle of summer 

the villain tried to escape but long razor claws stopped them it's their track 

tokoyami sent an extremely protective darksahdow's other claw to attack 

again 

and again 

and again 

until there was nothing more of a human than a scattered mess of bones, blood, organs and skin 

Tokoyami was excused of his actions due to what he had been through and that the villain had pushed him too far 

Tokoyami was more powerful then he had ever been before 

But with great power came great responsibility 

A responsibility that the students and teachers would need to look out for the raven 

To cover his blind spots in his life

Because that's what a family does 

And they would never let him be in the darkness alone ever again
