The Bird Tamer

34

His eyes fluttered open, a familiar room greeted him but not just that but a familiar women sat at the feet of the bed he was laying on.

What?.. We...songbird?!He abruptly sat up his eyes in a panick, searching for you, but you weren't anywhere a sense of dread filled him

"Down",midnight spoke as she stood up as a serious expression on her face

"Where is she?",he snapped as she stood up,"Where is she?!"

"She went on a mission."

"No she wouldn't leave without me",he stepped back not wanting to believe it,"We're a team, we don't leave each other."

He began pacing back and forth, and growled snapping. As he through himself at her only to be stopped by the barrier.

"This-",he glared pure rage and hurt on his face

"She knows."

He stopped as his face paled,"How?"

"During our meeting, a call came in about them from a companion",she explained her voice ice cold

"She left me..",he whispered softly as a deep sense of numbness filled him,"I wanted to keep her safe but I was holding her back",He stared down at his hands and began slamming them on the barrier

"Let me out! I need to go to her!",he yelled as he slammed again and again, he sunk to the ground in defeat,"Please I'm begging you",he whispered,"I can't lose more people, especially not them."

"Aren't you Fanalis?! A proud member of the Fanalis clan?! If you want to help her you wouldn't drop to your knees you'd stand tall and go where she needs you",midnight snapped

Hawks stared in surprise and shock, as he looked down Have I really become so attached I've become useless?...no she would tell me I'm strong, she would tell me she needs me and I...I would be there for her!

Determined he stood up, pulling out his feathered sword,"I vowed myself to her, where do I need to go?"

Midnight nodded with a look of approval, as the barrier came down and she shoved a paper into his chest.

"An order."

He narrowed his eyes as he opened it and his heart hammered rapidly against his rib cage as he read the words messily scrawled on the parchment kill them all, leave the leaders to me.

A smirk spreaded on his lips as he gave a small bow and whispered,"Yes master."

In seconds he was put his wings moving him at a fast speed. He'd do this, he'd kill each and every last one of them. For his clan, for the people he wronged and for you.

As he sped through the sky the night sky began to appear, and as it did the full moon shone out. Lighting the city under it, almost as if helping him find his target. From midnights additional initial the city was empty completely taken over, meaning everyone there was enemy.

As he sped down targets appeared and with a swift swipe two heads went flying as blood flew everywhere. He stood in the center of the town, multiple armed figures around him.

"Ive got orders, to kill",her spoke out,"You can beg but in the end you're all just pieces of shit",with a swift throw a bomb went off

With that he lunged, and figures lunged from the rooftop buildings. Alongside him were deku, Todoroki, and denki as well as a few others dressed in cloaks. The bomb had been a signal, hawks had seen them when he flew overhead, and now it was time to follow out your orders. So began a long night full of scream and blood, as they fought.

"Watch out!"

Hawks turned around in time to come face to face with a blonde girl. She had her hair styled in twin buns, and she wore basic black clothing. She grinned as she circled him.

"You'll do nicely",she giggled and lunged

You breathed heavily as blood splattered onto your cheek, you'd gotten there earlier than expected. You'd encountered an enemy after another, using the weapon the boy had made you. Your arms were screaming for a break, your legs trembled under you. You were tempted to use mana but you couldn't risk running out just yet.

"Aaah-",someone screamed as they lunged only to be silenced by your sword as it sliced through him

"Stop!",someone spoke up as You turned to see many grouping around you,"We've got orders to guide you inside if you want to see those mages."

You only stared and nodded, they lead the way unknown to them about the attack that would take place soon. You followed them through the ruined city. Smoke was rising in the air, buildings crumbling left and right, and bodies scattered around. Just like that night.

Vile rose in your throat but you forced it back, your hands shook at your side as you were lead inside the tallest building in the city.

"Keep going up",one said as they closed the door behind you

With a shaky breath you began the journey up the tower of stairs unsure of what will greet you. All you knew for sure was you were getting those two back no matter what. However with each step you became more aware of the chilly night, the way your sword swung back and forth, and how unlikely you were of coming down those stairs alife.

Finally you reached the spot and a pair of doors stood there, as if waiting for you. Inhaling you stepped forward and pressed a hand to them and pushed them opened. With a loud creaking sound they opened revealing him, as he stood there watching over the burning city. Shigaraki, he turned and his red eye's bore into you.

"(Y/n)"

Your knees almost buckled right there and then, oh god, how much you wanted to run away. Fear didn't even begin to describe what you were feeling, as he stepped closer and closer. Until he was only but an arm reach away.

"Shigaraki",You barely managed to croak out

"Glad you could join us",he grinned underneath his dark cloak

As he said that your attention was drawn to movement at your side and your stomache dropped. Kirishima and Bakugou were kneeled down and bloodied up, visible cuts and bruises adorned their faces. Anger pure rage filled you as you turned back to Shigaraki who offered a hand.

"Come now doll",he spoke his raspy voice unable to reach your ears

Trembling you took it, as he guided you towards the edge. Down below the city was burning an in inferno. All you could do was swallow back the lump forming in the back of your throat.

"My sources informed me of a rather friendly companion of yours, hawks?"

Your body stiffened in response and that must've been enough as his hand was at your throat in seconds. You stumbled, but his grip didn't falter.

"A toy",you managed out,"a tool."

His grip loosened as what he wished to hear filled his ears. That's right you just needed the right words, and error could lead to death.

"Good job, I always knew you had potential",he grinned as he turned towards the boys,"though I'm disappointed in their attitudes but nothing a few electric shocks won't fix especially the blonde, gotta say I love the passion."
