every one of us was admitted into the hospital in hosu that night. i was put in a different room than the others for obvious reasons and the authorities came to visit me that morning while scolding me for my actions of fighting as well as getting my story. 

they noted that i did my best to save the hero killer with my quirk, and they were shocked to hear me admit to trying to save him. however, with how weak and vulnerable i was at the moment, i was unable to. they told me that he was getting treated for his injuries and i couldn't help but offer to help them, but i was denied for my condition.

they explained the situation about publicity, and the chief of police thanked me for my efforts in trying to save everyone and capture the hero killer. i thanked him for letting me off without punishment.

they left and i supposed they went to talk with the other three that had actually caused damage. he would be giving the same lecture and speech to them, i presumed, and as soon as they left, a nurse came rushing in. 

she checked over my minor injuries and said that i would be let out as soon as my mom comes to find me. she also noted that my dad's blood had been used to refill my body over the night. that meant another week or so of having a mix of red and blue blood in case of fighting again. not that i really plan to. 

a few minutes of waiting, my mom came in through the door after a knock with an armful of clothes. "baby blood, i've already checked you out and all you need to do is change and we'll be on our way home." i nod lightly as she hands me the clothes. "you can talk to your friends before we leave." 

leaving me alone to change, i find that she gave me casual clothes instead of my hero suit, which i appreciated. i sigh, feeling comfortable in the clothes. i gather my phone up and leave the hospital robes on the bed before leaving the room and seeing midoriya going into a room. that must be where they all are. 

pocketing my phone, i knock on the door that i assumed was their room. a yell resounded inside and i opened the door to see the three of them. iida had a grave face and his blood felt quick. 

they told me of the news of iida's arm having long-term damage, and i wasn't surprised. i knew that it was numb by the weird feeling of the blood in his arm. he told us that he would leave his arm as is until he became a proper hero, and i respected that he took responsibility for his actions. iida and midoriya had a heart-to-heart and i burst out in laughter at todoroki's comment to the two. 

"i feel like if i get involved, other people mess up their hands." he stared at his hand in disdain, "is it a curse?" midoriya and iida joined in on my laughter as i pointed to todoroki's serious face.

"i didn't know you could make jokes!" 

"i'm not, i'm like the hand crusher or something." 

"the hand crusher!"

after settling down, i looked between them all, remembering what i wanted to say to them before i left. 

"oh, i'm leaving today. i wanted to talk to you all about something on my quirk." they all gradually look towards me and i gulp down my nerves.

"what is it, sato?" midoriya asked. 

"well, as you know, i can move blood coming from me and other people. i can make blood clots happen faster, as i did to you all during the battle with stain and i can move or keep them in place. it's a dangerous quirk since i could definitely stop someone's flow of blood and block blood coming out of the arteries," i look between them all, them all looking a little scared, reasonably at my statement. "but i don't. i know better and i want to be a hero."

"i can also feel the pumping of blood coming from your veins, and i take medication to lessen the anxiety it gives me," i say, looking around to make sure they were all still listening. "when i'm in situations like i was in yesterday--when i couldn't control my quirk as i wanted to--stain took a hold of my body for that split second, my medication wore off and my senses heightened terribly." 

"there was burning blood everywhere and i could feel everyone's veins pumping as they filled with adrenaline and were as loud as bombs." i gulped lightly. "but the worst feeling of all was how i felt the crack of stain's ribs because of the vein it punctured as he began bleeding internally. feeling all that sloshing around like a bag of liquid almost made it feel as if it were happening to me, and i was in so much shock that i could barely even hold myself up."

there was a pregnant silence as i breathed in and continued my story. "i wanted to tell you all to stop, that you had put him in a critical condition, but i choked up so badly that i couldn't even talk until my mom came to find us." i sighed.

"i just want you all to know more about my quirk, as you three arguably have the strongest strength-based quirks in our class. i just don't think i can handle all of my senses going off like that. i wish to you all that you control your quirks not only for my sake but to make sure you aren't so reckless with those offensive abilities of yours." i look up to see their stunned faces and i sigh again. there was silence before it was interrupted by todoroki. 

"i should have known better with all the hints you gave us, i'm sorry sato, deeply." after that apology, came a string of them coming from midoriya and iida for causing a great complication. i accepted them on the terms that they learn self-control. i as well suggested todoroki come to my hometown again sometime to learn how to control his quirk.

and with a goodbye to the three, i left the room to find my mom who was probably in the waiting room. as i suspected, she was talking to a nurse, and as soon as she spotted me, she excused herself and made her way to me with a small smile. 

"ready to go?" she asks and i nod. she links our arms and we walk out of the hospital. i wonder how katsuki will react when i tell him about this. probably yelling about my stupidity. i chuckle to myself before opening the door to my mom's car and settling inside. i take out my phone and see multiple messages from kastuki. 

i smile lightly at his concern for me being gone for a bit and i decide to reply to ease them. i can't wait to just go home and nap. maybe i'll take a couple of pictures of mt. fuji.
