23

I wake up in my own head again and I can only blink. I'm not hooked onto the metal slab anymore, no I've been let down. My hands are free, so are my ankles. I look around and see Icyhot and Deku in the same daze that I felt.

So much pain. I can't keep my eyes open but I crawl. I have to. I make my way to Deku and Icyhot and when I open my eyes again, there they are. I pull myself a little closer and I put my arms around my lovers. My pain was theirs, their hurt was mine. We have seen, we have felt our lives through each others eyes but our tears won't stop. Couldn't stop.

I hold them both as close as I could trying to keep them from breaking a part but in the end I just feel myself being torn apart instead.

"Bunny, Puppy, I'm just not strong enough." I whisper and we cried our hearts out, not caring that All Might and Aunty Inko were here. I could hear Aunty Inko fighting, and winning, with some man with a burned up face. I guess Aunty's mad, but considering I still can't feel my fingertips, from the frost bite that I never actually had, there isn't a whole lot I could do.

Flashes of green and black exploded every where, I could vaguely hear Aunty screaming at the man she was fighting before there was something that sounded like tearing flesh. I start to look up again but All Might was here now and he pulled our heads to his chest, as if somehow that would protect us from whatever was behind him.

Our tears, cries of pain, they just won't stop. I can still feel the boiling water being poured on my face, or the sludge villain sufficating me again. I close my eyes trying to shut out the noises, all the pain, all the things that I saw. But no matter what I do, it wasn't helping. I held my lovers, trying so hard to protect them from my past, why did we have to lose now? Why did they have to see it? Why did they have to feel my pain?

They know now. It's not like before where they could pretend they didn't or that on some level maybe I could actually heal with them beside me. No, they saw it, they felt what I did while I was raped. Their bodies are still clean but their minds...

They know.

The tears ran down my face as I screamed out nonsense, I can't even make a simple sentence. I just feel the pain, the pain that they have endured their whole lives and now they know mine too. Would dying have been easier?

I woke up screaming, not sure if it was the sight of the sledge villain, Toga or Endeavor or some nasty combination of the three. I sat up screaming my hand reaching out, explosions going off in front of me.

It took a minute but when I could breathe again, I looked around and saw I was in a hospital room, I was alone until doctors and nurses burst through the door making me explode again out of shock.

I was shaking, I couldn't hold still. I looked down at my arms to see chills while the hair on my arms raised. I try to take deep breaths, I'm in a hospital. I'm safe, I'm in a hospital. The mantra wasn't really helping but at the same time, it was.

I looked around and see the doctors and nurses were all staring at me. Where are my lovers? Where am I? Why isn't my hag or dad here? I started demanding answers but no one currently in here were giving me answers.

"THEN FUCKING GET ME SOMEONE WHO DOES KNOW!" I was fed up, they wouldn't tell me how either Deku or Icyhot were doing and I was ready to explode anything and everything in my way but as it turns out I didn't need to.

There was a commotion outside my door and there they were, they were in their own hospital clothes but they came running in, dodging the security guy that tried to block them out and they jumped onto my bed.

I held them close, finally feeling their comforting arms around me again. We stayed like that, ignoring the world while all we did was sit there holding each other. It didn't take long for our tears to start spilling over again but at least now I know. I know. They know. We know.

We are not alone, we are not weak and we are certainly not useless. We have each other and the League of Villains are about to get a wake up call.

I sent several explosions out, keeping the dumbass nurses and uptight doctors as far away as possible. It took a while but our parents finally came in my room having found us all in my room.

All Might shooed out the doctors and nurses. "If there is something that you actually need to do, then fine but otherwise get out!" I didn't really care which adult was next to me I ended up calling Aunty Inko, Mama Inko and Aunty Rei, Mama Rei. much to the hags and everyone elses confusion. It took a while but the detective that arrested Calamity was able to explain her quirk to them and what happened to us.

I couldn't keep my hands and arms away from Deku and Icyhot, it was all I wanted. To hold them and keep them safe from the world but in the end I couldn't even do that could I?

I don't even know how we were rescued, something about Mama Inko and All Might having a ton of paperwork to fill out and how the three of us have been asleep for a week here at the hospital.

"They were even considering giving Calamity the death penalty to free you three of her quirk. There was a lot of moral red tape to prevent that from happening though. Not that she deserves to live by any stretch of the imagination." All Might told us, before then letting out a sigh.

"She died about an hour ago due to complications during surgery. Apparently her quirk was rather nasty, trapping not only you three but herself as well. She wasn't expecting you all to have a traumatic past, maybe one of you, maybe even two but not all three." He shook his head before I felt him pull us to him for a soft hug. I didn't even know I was crying. I looked at my lovers and see the tears trailing down their faces as we all just cried. I don't even think we were actually in any pain, but at the same time it was like we were so oversensitive that just about anything was enough to set us off.

Our parents held us tight and the fact that after so much hate and loneliness in such a little time, it felt so good to be held again. The doctors finally came and checked on us and we were cleared to go. All Might drove us back to the dorms, Inko in the passenger seat while the three of us huddled in the back seat, doing anything we could to hold each other closer, tighter, safer.

All Might and Aunty helped us out of the car and towards the school dorms. We quickly made our way to Deku's room and locked the door. We cuddled up in our bed and while holding each other we fell asleep, our faces still wet from our fresh spilling tears.

We didn't come out for two days, we just used the restroom there in the dorm and the only time we ate was when one of our friends brought us something to eat, but otherwise we just didn't care enough to find it ourselves.

When we did we just claimed the loveseat and curled up around each other, ignoring everyone else in the room. We knew that we needed to get out, that we could make ourselves sick if we didn't but that didn't mean we liked it.

Aizawa Sensei was already in the common area when we walked in and he just froze whatever announcement he was making until we were settled. It wasn't anything all that surprising. Just that we all had our physical exams next week and to make sure we didn't over do it.

I'm pretty sure I heard him telling the rest of the class to give us our space just before we walked in but like hell that was actually going to happen.

"Boys," we all looked up to see All Might and Mama Inko standing there, they must have walked in during the announcements because I know they weren't in the room when we first walked in. "I'm afraid that we have to play the video now."

"What video Dad?" Deku asked, we were all curious but I for one wasn't really concerned.

"The one that Calamity made while torturing you," my eyes went wide and I started to panic.

"Wh-at!" My voice broke half way through the word and hell I didn't even know my voice could go that high. I could see all the shocked faces around me, not even at what All Might said but at how I reacted. I don't even look angry, I'm sure that I looked fucking terrified.

I feel Icyhot and Deku pull me closer and when I turned my head Deku pulled my head to his shoulder while taking one of mine. Icyhot curled around my other half and laid his against my back while his arms held the three of us together, but I could still feel my heart pounding out of my chest and I just couldn't catch my breath at all.

I heard them whispering in my ear, telling me it was going to be okay, but I can still feel the burns on my skin or the frost bite in my fingers. I could feel their bodies holding me protectively but at the same time they couldn't stop the trembling of their hands or how the hair stood up on their arms. We are afraid. More than that, we were trapped.

"Hey, you do NOT have to see it. Do you understand me? You are safe now," Mama Inko cooed holding us all as close as she could.

All Might went on to explain, "They need to see the video in order to decide whether or not to charge Inko with murder. You don't have to watch it, but it was your right to know." He squeezed himself on one side of us while Mama Inko took the other, pressing us all close together as the tears came gushing out again.

"I want to see it," I croaked out before looking up and I felt All Might put a hand on my shoulder as Icyhot and Deku agreed.

He stood up and walked to the TV and put the video in.
