Chapter 9: I'm Not Here

Deku

The car stops after it has collided with Kacchan. She looks confused but collapses to the ground. I run over to her and cry over her limp body. I put my two fingers on her neck, feeling for her pulse. I don't feel anything.

"NO! NO! KACCHAN COME BACK! YOU PROMISED! I LOVE YOU, KACCHAN! JUST COME BACK HERE! COME BACK TO ME! C-come b-back to m-m-me, K-kacchan." I feel heavy hands on my shoulders.

"She's going to be okay son."

"Dad?" I ask, hatred filling my voice. I feel the sharp edge of my knife in my pocket. I grip it, turn around, and cut whatever's near. The man collapses to the ground because of a new formed slash across his ankle. I pick up Kacchan and run to the hospital,not looking back again.

Liv

After being on the run for 11 years, Kirai runs over his son's girlfriend! Really?! I can't say I was surprised when the greenette stabbed his own father. From what Kirai and I have seen, this boy and his girl have a very strong bond, stronger than Kirai and I's bond. No Liv! Don't think like that! But it's true! No it's not! Oh sorry! I have little arguments with myself sometimes. Kirai knew that Izuku was madly in love with the girl and I guess he was "testing" him. It feels like all he does is "test" people. I think back to last night. Was that a test too? Was just coming to Japan a test? He shouldn't have come back at all. I told him that. Now I'm in the car telling 911 that.

Bakugo

I see a light. It surrounds me. It tries to envelop me and I feel as if I'm trapped in the sun. Out of the corner of my eye, I see the tiniest bit of darkness and I run towards it. Once I get close, I dive like a seal into the darkness. I've won. Everything around me is a blur but I have escaped the darkness. I see green hair on the head of whoever's carrying me and think It's my Deku. "D-d-Deku?" He stops and his emerald eyes stare into mine.

"I'm not here," are the words that escape his lips before he disappears in thin air. No! Dang, it Deku! Come back! The light comes again and I want to fight for my Deku so I dive towards the darkness. I awake to my greenette leaning down and kissing my forehead.

"I loved you my Kacchan. I will always love you." He places roses on my chest.

"Don't go." I plead to him but it's like they don't hear me. I grab his wrist just after he says, "Goodbye."

"No goodbyes my little Deku," I whisper in his ear as he collapses onto my chest.

"It's too late Kacchan. I'm not here." Is what I hear before I am back in the light. No! I will fight! I jump into the slither of darkness and see my Deku's face. I say nothing. I then see him holding a child. I think it's our child. Then I see round face kiss him. He looks towards me and says, "I'm not here." The light comes again and this time I let it take me. I can't take the pain anymore. Goodbye Deku.

Deku

Monday turns to Tuesday and Tuesday turns to Wednesday until I no longer keep track of the days. It was Thursday, January 23, 2020 when my Kacchan got hit by the car my dad, a criminal, was driving. My mom told me days later that he got locked up. Good for him. I don't really care. All I care about is my Kacchan. They, the doctors, didn't want to let me see her but with me being her boyfriend and all, they finally let me on January 25th. As I stated previously, I don't pay much attention to the days anymore but as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months and soon, the months into years, I began to worry. By 2024, I had graduated, moved out of my mom's, got a job, a car, and an apartment. I barely ever go to my house because when I'm not working, I'm with Kacchan at the hospital. One day, Uraraka calls me after I finish my shift at work and I answer her call, hesitantly.

"Do you wanna help Bakugo?" She asks.

"Of course," I reply.

"Then meet me at 310 Oak Street immediately. I've got a plan."

"Okay," I say as I hang up.

I love you Kacchan. I'm going to save you.
