Chapter Text
Yare yare, just how did I end up in this situation....
.
.
.
The first thing the boy that lied on the hospital bed heard was a persistent beeping, it was a soft and steady noise made by a machine, his eyelids felt heavy as he forces them open, as he slowly gets a whiff of his surroundings, but tho bright light above made it too hard to focus on anything, it was a bright white light, that type of artificial light that they use in hospitals.
...
He was in a....hospital.
Kusuo Todoroki, formerly a son of the todoroki family that was missing for 10 years, presumed dead on his 3rd year gone, suddenly found himself in a hospital connected to machines he didn't need,
The realization came in slower than he anticipated, he took in a deep yawn. His mouth felt dry, raw, he needed something to drink, he gulped, feeling as if sandpaper was being shoved down his throat.
Usually, a normal person would've panicked, fear and confusion would be setting in by now but Kusuo just felt...nothing, he was numb, annoyingly so yes, but nevertheless still monotonous and stoic.
This nasal cannula and IV are quite uncomfortable.
He lifted his hand to touch the tube on his arm then moved upwards towards the plastic one in his nose, he went blank for a second.
He proceeds to harshly rip it out of his nose and threw it near its oxygen tank then he took out his IV and smacked it on the table near his bed and some other wires he was connected to, he lifted the blankets and saw himself wearing a hospital gown,
Well no kidding, I've obviously been out for some time, or days.....probably a week or so, judging by how stiff my arms are and how my muscles ache it had to have been a while. At least it's better than what I was wearing before. Actually, what day is it?
Kusuo sat up from his lying position, he rubbed his eyes due to them being closed for a long while, he looks around for a bit, the hospital room he's staying in looks fancier than most hospital rooms,
Well what did I expect, the long lost son of the number one hero, and a famous U.A student whose the twin brother of this lost son, the cassette plays nicely, if it played broken by Lund.
He grabs his glasses that was on the table, surprised it hasn't been broken, and starts to recall what happened when he passed out,
Oh yeah, that green haired boy, Midoriya wasn't it? He's been chasing me up and down cause he thought I was one of the escaped high end villains, which I beg to differ...then those UA students found me and of course since I was unconscious, they sent me to a hospital. Most likely my family would be alerted that I am in fact still alive, not very well though....
Everything began resurfacing and he started to piece the scattered fragments together, he sighed, man were those fragments tiny and a hellish amount. He would be relieved because the chase with the rundown vigilante was over but he had a feeling that things were just starting to become troubling.
Mhh? Ahh right, this lazy author decided to start the story from when I woke up so you don't have a clear idea what happened, I guess a flashback would be due right about now.
[Two weeks ago]
Ugh..There isn't anywhere where I can rest peacefully without coming face to face to either a hero or villain...
It has been a havoc on everyone, but Kusuo would say he was most affected, because of the whole war shenanigans and the villain outbreak he has to stay on high alert all the time, to not bump into anyone or find him when he is sleeping making him vulnerable, in fact he can't sleep anymore for more than 3 hours because of this. The one Kusuo is most annoyed about is the new vigilante in town, Deku, oh Deku, how have you been causing trouble to this poor psychic [quite literally]. This scent destroying green grinch rabbit,is what Kusuo refers to him instead. Because there is a problem...
"Hey! Don't think I'll let you get away with it this time!"
Why don't you let me, you can't even catch up to me anyways. You've seriously been a pain in the ass, can't you find an actual villain you could chase.
Todoroki jumped off the building the both were on and landed safely between alley ways, he heard a thump behind him, Deku followed behind disturbingly close, he tried using black whip to try getting a hold on him but no matter how quick or how he tries to catch him off guard Todoroki always dodges the attempt,
'Tch, it's hard to identify what quirk he has or what he looks like, so I can't guess what villain he is!'
Because Todoroki wore dark oversized clothes, especially the hood covering half his face, that he usually stole from a store, it was hard to make out how he looked, plus Kusuo never looked at him directly.
Have you ever thought that I may not be a villain, sure I do run away at the sight of you but that is not a crime!
Todoroki took a sharp left turn making a tiny screeching sound and went into another alley way, when Deku turned the same alley blocking the way with his black whip, that tactic was deemed useless when he found nothing...
'What the...he just vanished, again! I seriously can't tell whether he has speed, teleportation or some kind of sense since he can dodge without even seeing my attack quirk...could he...no, All for One would never give someone that amount of powers, even if he did or didn't I better keep a good eye on him, he seems like trouble.'
Look who's jumping to conclusions now, huh? Didn't you get offended when people thought you got these powers from that villain, *sighs*, this is ridiculous,
Todoroki slouched down against a wall, he teleported towns away from Deku so he should be safe from this cat and mouse chase. He slowly blinked his eyes that had visibly dark bags under them, he lowered his head to check his pockets, he pulled out a small can of coffee and warmed it up using pyrokinesis, he chugged the entire bottle and crumbled it before tossing it aside.
It has been...a few days since I last properly slept and it's starting to show on me..
By a few he means a good month,
With all this meaningless war that the heroes should've ended and possibly could have avoided a long time ago, the whole nomu bullshit that makes me want to throw up everytime I see one, and the villains and heroes themselves are starting to get on my nerves, everybody became ten times more annoying than usual!
Being homeless and avoiding society's eyes now have been increasing difficult, since Endeavor is a deadbeat, my mom doesn't even know me, my siblings, apparently one's a villain and back from the dead like me, not including the villain part, has gotten pretty out of hand and made Endeavor more unlikable then ever and my older twin brother has fought in the war and most likely will in the future, probably against our older brother, Toya or rather Dabi now...huh...both the youngest and the oldest have it going pretty bad for themselves, both our lives are shitty, If I was never kidnapped and taken away to become a lab rat and tortured for a year because they found out about my psychic abilities I wouldn't be where I stand.
You may be wondering why I haven't returned if I escaped after a year when technically at that time, they were still searching for me. It's very simple, it's the same fate either way. It's either I suffer in the streets or suffer in that household, nothing will change, well, not to brag but I would've been recommended to UA against my own consent and then fight in this war which I probably would win, but is that what I want?
No, it's because this is what the world needs, it needs to understand that how useless they contribute to society, everything happens for a reason it's called cause and effect, I mean..that's how I was still homeless, I can't entirely hide from people's gaze but because every person has the mentality of 'Oh I'm sure a hero would come by and save them' AKA the bystander effect as one calls, no one does anything out of kindness or even the least out of their humanity, common sense, tch, I mean that's how villains are made, more than 60% of villains aren't evil by nature, their evil because that's how the world treated them, I couldn't care less if I became a villain but that would be a bit too much for the Todorokis plus the rest of the world and for plot convenience-!
Kusuo immediately sat up when he heard thoughts coming around, he used his telepathy to hone in on the nearby thoughts,
Ah shit, don't tell that wretched green smelly guy is back at it again.
'I need ....to get away, .....but I don't .....have the .......energy....'
"Guys, I got him!"
'I didn't think of how we're going to land!'
Yare yare, he has his buddy buddies with him, realistically that's not an issue at all, but I need to maintain the image that I am not a psychic and my only quirk is Telepathy, since it's the one ability I developed first. So by that logic, there is no way I alone can take down hero students. I was too deep in thoughts to realize them, they are about 50 meters away from where I'm standing. I need to make a move before They-!!
Kusuo dropped to the ground and clutched onto himself, his body throbbing in pain, it was a stabbing sensation that filled his entire body to the brim, he tried standing up but to his disappointment he just fell even lower,
No! It's not the time for this, I really have the worst timing for things-
"Ack!"
Kusuo said out loud verbally, he had black spots in his vision, the room started to rock gently side to side, he was slowly losing consciousness.
Damn me and my sleep habits, do you have to force me to get knocked out.....-
Kusuo collapsed face down before losing consciousness in the abandoned store he teleported to, the people who were just a few meters ahead obviously didn't hear it but someone did, their quirk was built on sound anyways.
'Did someone get hurt?'
Jiro said as she looked at the direction she heard it from, while everyone was attending to Midoriya, she went over the deserted store, she took a step in being careful of her surroundings, she plugged one of her earphone jack to the wall to detect any sounds, when nothing came to light she cautiously said,
"Hello, is anyone here?"
She paces around the entire store at least twice checking every crevice of the entire front store before checking the back, she creeked the door open checking before entering in.
"This is Earphone Jack, I'm a student at UA's hero course..."
She found out where the person was, he was unconscious on the floor, but who it was she was not sure, his face was facing the ground and he has a hood up,
"Hey are you alright, it's ok the villain as been captured"
She mistook that the guy was scared and decided to hide here, she got down to her knees and shook him but there was no response, she was practically shaking jelly over here.
Because of that she flipped him over which caused the hood to come off and to reveal his face. It took her a second to realize who it was and when it dawned on her, her eyes widen, she was surprised by the amount of scars he had where his skin was visibly but more importantly, that vibrant pink hair that was unexplainable by the family, those strange hair pieces that were handmade making it one of a kind and only belonged to one special person,
"Wait aren't you..OHH MY GOD! GUYS GET IN HERE.. I FOUND SOMEONE.....YOU WON'T believe who it is.....it's...."
Her voice faded off into the distance as she hurriedly ran over to her group to tell them who she found...
A long lost sibling who they thought was dead for someone, and a guy around their age that could have potentially been their classmates for others...
After all, at the innermost core of all loneliness is a deep and powerful yearning for union with one's lost self.
With a lot being said,
Kusuo Todoroki has been found.
