52 Chapter 14.6

Aizawa opened his eyes, "I-Izuku, you are alright, thank you for keeping your promise", Aizawa gets up.

"Sensei I need to tell you something important"

"Fine, can you all leave us for a minute"

"Sensei I am sorry, but I did kill someone, I didn't want to but I couldn't help"

"What? By couldn't help what do you mean?"

"You see that Nomu was a man, I think he was given multiple quirks and changed into a monster. When I used my weapon, the bullet went inside him, it was a quirk inhibitor drug, after fighting the other guys, I removed the bullet and his movements ceased. It was like he was just a puppet, I couldn't see that, and I decided to end his suffering. I am going to take full responsibility for my crime but if I left him, he would have to suffer again, scientists wouldn't have left him easily, they would have cut him alive and researched. I lost my judgment, and I decided to take its life, I won't run from my actions, I am going to take full responsibility"

Aizawa hugged Izuku, "Sorry if I was still conscious, you wouldn't have to take that burden. You did nothing wrong, it's normal for humans to feel others' pain. Don't let it bother you. Don't worry, I will take care of it, after all, you are my bratty student"

Both hugged for a moment, "Ah.. Sensei you can leave me, it feels kinda awkward", Aizawa left him, "Just when I thought you have a heart you ruin the moment brat"

"Thank you sensei"

"Don't pry over it"

Izuku helped him to get up, Aizawa went towards the ambulance, he wasn't seriously injured, "Sensei I can heal you"

"Brat, once you think of becoming a quirkless hero why are you trying to do such trivial things, remember what you said earlier, you will only use your quirk as your last resort, when all options have failed. Got it"

"Yup sensei", Izuku leaves him, he is stopped by Bakugo, "Zuzu what happened"

"Nothing, Todoroki was fighting, I just brought him he did beat the villain with only his ice, I didn't think he could but he did but he fainted after beating the crap of it"

"That half-half is fine, did you handle the villains alone?"

"I didn't, sensei and others helped too"

"Anyway, you saved everyone. Now how about going back"

"Yup, I don't want to be here anymore"

Izuku and Bakugo went towards the bus, "You are Midoriya Izuku. Am I right"

"Yup, why do you ask me?"

"I thank you for saving others, I heard you took care of the villains. I am thankful to you"

"Don't thank me, thank sensei, he was the one who saved the bloodbath"

"Bloodbath, we didn't receive any information. What do you mean?"

"It's nothing. I meant if sensei wasn't there a lot of people could have got hurt"

"I will make sure to thank Eraser Head once he heals"

"I will be taking my leave then"

Izuku entered the bus, everybody was sitting as earlier, Izuku took the last seat, "Today was quite troublesome. I think I will pass from any more trips"

"Izuku, what happened after you left us?"

"I searched for others, they had already defeated the villains, all I did was clean up"

"And"

"I scared the hell out of you guys, your faces were quite captivating", Izuku chuckled, "Man I am dizzy, I am going to sleep. Kachhan do you know lullaby"

"I am not your mother and you aren't a kid. Don't sleep, you can sleep once you get back home"

"You are no fun, geez. I think of giving my best friend status to Momo, you are way too cold"

Momo blushed, "I don't think Bakugo would like that"

Bakugo smirks, "Bluebird must be informed about your chivalry during the morning"

"Kachhan how rude of you, aren't you my best friend? How can I possibly make another friend like you, so just keep your mouth shut"

"I will design your new costume with your support item, so let it slide"

"Fine but you should make it look badass"

"Got it"

The rest of the journey was filled with silence apart from murmur, after coming back to UA, All Might confront Izuku, "Young Midoriya, I am truly sorry that I wasn't there for you when you needed me the most"

"Don't sweat it All Might. Who said we needed you, after all, we are the future heroes, we must learn for a day without you. At last no one was hurt, except sensei so I consider it to be a stroke of good luck"

"No one was hurt except you"

"What?"

"You fought all the villains by yourself. Didn't you?"

"I just cleaned up their mess, I just guided them"

"I am truly sorry, but you shouldn't have experienced death"

"I am fine, I don't consider it bad, it was a useful experience. Well sooner or later we all must get used to it, we can't save everyone"

"I am just worried, your eyes were cold when they tried to escape, you threw the knife, it felt you were killing them"

"Oh, that made you worried, I thought if I could hit his face, I could have stopped them from escaping but I missed"

"You don't miss it frequently. Do you?"

"All Might, I am kinda lacking sleep, I was busy last night, after the chaos, I am quite tired. Can we talk about it later"

"Okay, take care Young Midoriya"

"Bye"

Izuku entered UA, he went to change his clothes, "Shit my new suit is ruined", he took his clothes, "Kachhan I am going to take a shower, you go with me, I will be back soon"

Izuku took about his clothes, out of his pocket he took the handkerchief, it was blood-stained, Izuku fell on knees, he cried, "I took someone's life, I killed someone", turning on the shower, "I am a killer, I have killed, even it was not necessary. I have failed to be a good human"

Izuku closed his eyes, he took a deep breath.

Huh, everything is black once more, well I wonder how long it has been

Midoriya Izuku welcome back, you seem tensed

I killed, I killed a human, I could have saved him

Yes you could have saved him but was he a human

Yes, he was. Although he was unable to think he was human

By mourning over the past, you will only hurt yourself. I shouldn't tell you this as I am not in a position to say what you did was right or wrong, from my perspective it was all grey, good and evil both. Midoriya life is precious but sometimes it's also a curse, you should think about it. Now listen to this carefully, get over it as soon as possible, there's nothing to be done, get a hold of yourself, and continue to walk on your dream.

My dream, I don't know if I can be a hero or not? A hero who killed an innocent

I see, remember a hero is a hero as long as he saves other lives, even if you didn't save others you did save Todoroki's life. Now I am kicking you out, talking will just waste our time

I am back, I better get ready, Izuku kept the cloth and changed back into his school uniform, he kept his ruined costume inside and left. The class was about to over, Izuku entered the class, after the bell, he left the class first, he was about to leave the school but he found himself wrapped around warmth, he turned back, "Oh, Nejire it's you. I thought of going early"

"I heard about the incident, is everybody all right?"

"Yes, except Aizawa-sensei, he got some injuries"

"Well, you weren't hurt. Were you?"

"I am fine, I am just tired"

"Tired, you look pale, I just know a place, the first place we met, let's go eat ramen"

"Thank you, Nejire for being along my side"

"Aren't you talking like an old man? It's normal for a girlfriend to be next to his boyfriend in case of trouble"

Nejire kissed his cheeks, "Well cheer up, it's ramen time. Today is my treat"

Izuku couldn't refuse her, he went along with her, and after dropping her, he came back. 

Inko hugged him, "Izuku are you fine, you weren't hurt. I heard you were attacked by villains"

"I am fine, I am a bit tired, I haven't slept last night. I won't be eating dinner, I already ate ramen ", Izuku entered his room, he changed his clothes and slept.
