Meat night by Midnight

"Huff, huff, huff" Oki was currently running outside the orphanage after quietly throwing himself out the window. He didn't care if someone heard him, if he had stayed more than a second there he would've had eaten Masako who was sleeping right next to him.

He jumped from a two story window but he didn't feel any pain from the landing. Oki didn't pay any attention to the fact that he had just come out unscathed from the jump and just darted to a place where he could be alone and out the sights of people after jumping a tall fence that surrounded the playground with minimal effort.

Oki was running very fast, he looked like he had a minor speed type quirk. Oki was being careless as he ran through the street basically ramming into everyone that came into contact with him, leaving them injured and on the ground, despite the protests of the few people that were there, he kept on running.

Oki could barely handle the hunger anymore, the next person that he saw was probably going to end up in his stomach. Oki ran deep inside an alleyway and sat down on the cold ground before grabbing his hair and pulling it tightly in an attempt to alleviate his hunger.

That didn't help though as he only felt more hungry by the second. He tried his hardest for god knows how long and finally calmed down a little. God however, didn't seem to want him hungry because at the next second he was about to lose his senses to the enticing smell at his left.

"Hey kid, do you want some candy? Follow me to have a good time" The disgusting sketchy man said before grabbing Oki's shoulder. "Come on I promise that y-" The man couldn't say another word as Oki jumped at him and bit his throat with force, effectively shutting him up.

The man looked horrified by the fact that he was choking on his own blood and Oki's appearance right now was not humane. Oki looked like a dog with rabies as he looked to be foaming from how much saliva was dropping from his mouth, he also had had his classic black and red eyes with his six spiky tails out.

The man who was suffocating from his blood, pushed back Oki slightly with a lot of effort as he had a minor strength quirk but it was not enough as at the next second he was killed by one of Oki's tails piercing his brain. Oki, who was out of control, ate the man whole in a process that lasted about twenty five minutes, he only left the bones.

There's really no scientific way of explaining how Oki could eat a whole man that was two and a half times taller than him but that was the case. Oki regained his control shortly after eating the man, and looked melancholic, Oki thought that he had killed an innocent man but at least he was not crying. 'I'm sorry' Oki thought.

Now he had some major problem to deal with, even though he was only 8 years old, he knew better than to leave literal human bones just laying around in an alleyway, there was a pool of blood on the floor but Oki didn't seem to care. The other thing was that his clothes, hands, and face were currently covered in blood and he didn't know what to do.

Where would he hide the bones? How could he get rid of his bloody clothes? Oki was overwhelmed by all of this, he didn't know what to do as he was only a small kid trying to do something complex and out of his comfort.

Oki stayed in the same spot rooted by fear gripping at his heart for a few minutes before he finally had the courage to move the bones to somewhere where he could hide it. Oki unnaturally picked the bones which had tiny bits of flesh attached to them from the ground and then tried to think where he could take them.

The bone joints were broken and there were visible cracks along the ribs, Oki couldn't carry all of them with his tiny hands so he tried to take the tails out voluntarily for the first time since he had gotten this quirk.

The six tails came out of him in a flash, it was surprisingly easy to take them out without him being out of control. Each tail held a pice of bone each and then Oki started moving towards the orphanage, he was obviously using the alleyways to do so. Whilst he was moving he softly said again "I'm sorry," Oki was feeling quite guilty about what he did.

Oki already thought about where to take the bones when he was picking them and if he was lucky, he could wash himself at the same time. Oki finally arrived outside his destination after walking for a few minutes, he had not encountered any people along the way back to the orphanage, there was a huge forest behind the building where Oki was planning on hiding the bones.

He avoided being too close to the orphanage whilst he was entering the forest just in case, Oki wandered around looking for a place to hide the body but the first thing that he found was a stream of water. he decided to wash up first before doing anything else.

Oki dropped the bones to the ground and took off his clothes, he was currently naked and afraid, Oki took his clothes before getting inside the cold stream with them. The moment he got in, blood was slowly washed off of his clothes and himself.

Oki submerged his head in the stream before washing his face and then rubbing the parts of his body which still had a little blood left by the water. Oki then squeezed the blood out of his clothes extensively before going out the stream and dressing himself.

The pile of bones on the ground brought back memories of what had happened to Oki which made him aware of what he had done. 'Please rest in peace and forgive me' Oki prayed in his mind, he then thought about the other problem, how could he hide the bones?

Oki then though of a crazy and unpleasant idea, he had thought about burying the body and let nature do it's thing like a normal person but he instead decided to do something stupid. He grabbed a leg bone that was laying around and turned it into incredibly small fragments by crushing it with his tail. Oki then put the powder in his mouth and swallowed it by taking the water from the stream.

Somehow inside his 8 year old traumatized mind this was definitely the best solution as it was better than leaving the bones behind buried in the dirt. Oki then did this with all of the bones and left the forest to go back inside the orphanage.

Oki's clothes were not dry by any means, it was currently leaking water as he walked, Oki remembered that there was a room with clothes inside so he wanted to change his clothes there.

Oki entered through the playground which thankfully didn't have any cameras as he was too preoccupied with his clothes to notice any cameras, there was only the fence surrounding the playground. Maybe they thought that they didn't need cameras as the fence was quadruple a man's height but that still didn't make any sense.

Our little boy was currently feeling lost as he had yet to remember where everything was. After wandering close to the playground's entrance, he finally found the room, Oki tried to enter the room but it was… open? He went inside and looked at all the organized clothes that there were inside the room.

Oki was quick on his feet and picked the first clothes that matched his physique, he got naked and changed to the clothes that he had just picked. Oki grabbed his wet clothes and then placed them inside a box full of unopened clothing wraps before placing the box back where it was.

He quickly left the room and headed towards the dormitory, but when he was turning on a corner he came face to face with the angry looking headmistress. "Where were you young boy? I was trying to find you for at least ten minutes, you better come up with a good excuse or else I'll give you extra classes tomorrow" Nana said whilst she looked angry at Oki.

Oki just looked at Nana without saying a word, he was unable to form a single coherent sentence from the shock, what came out of his mouth sounded like gibberish.

"Come on, tell me" Nana said whilst she raised her hand a little bit. When Oki saw the movement of the hands he instinctively shielded himself from a slap, causing Nana to feel bad looking at the scared kid.

Nana sighed before lowering her hand and softly told Oki, "Don't be afraid, I only want to know where you where because I care for you and don't want anything bad happening to you."

Oki looked at the floor and started speaking shortly after, "I sometimes sleep walk, when I woke up I was already taking a shower with my clothes on" Oki told Nana all of that while he avoided eye contact added with an occasional shaky voice.

Nana thought that Oki was scared that she would reprimand him and that's why he was so nervous, "Haah, come on Oki, go to sleep" she said before holding Oki's hand and guiding him to his mattress.

Oki laid down on the mattress and covered himself with the blankets. "Good night" Nana said, "Good night" Oki replied.
