He sighed, pulling the newspaper out from the mailbox. The headline, as usual, was about the recent Stain sightings in the Bronx, New York; but he couldn't care less about that. Flipping straight to the fourth page, he began searching through as he walked up to his door. He quickly made his way inside, slipping off his shoes and ignoring his roomate per usual as he made his way upstairs.
He finally saw what he was looking for as he reached his room, walking through the open door and slamming it behind him. He grabbed a pair of scissors as he passed his desk, cutting the article and picture out and dropping the rest of the newspaper on the floor.
"Alright, Izuku. I'll find you yet." he muttered, pinning the article on a large map. "Last sighted in Queens, huh? I guess I should pay a visit..."
Spinning on his heel, he swept his long blond hair out of his red eyes before rolling a black hairband off his wrist and tying his hair at the base of his neck with it.
He dropped to his knees in front of a large pile of clean clothes and began to sort through it, grabbing out several shirts, underwear, jeans, and socks before stuffing them in his ever-present messenger bag at his side.
He sighed, and moved back over by his desk, reaching under and pulling out a medium-size moving box on it's side. He opened it, staring at the safe for a second before putting in the combination, 13-7-4-9. It clicked open, and he grabbed out a couple stacks of 20's before hesitating. His hand had brushed the gun that was sitting so peaceful-looking against the side of the triple-reinforced safe. He sighed, and grabbed it before stuffing it in the very bottom of his bag.
"Yo, Kirishima!" he shouted down the stairs. "I'm going to New York for awhile, don't know when I'll be back!"
Kirishima yelled back, "When you gonna be back, Bakugou? Kaminari's coming around next week Thursday and I wanna have dinner with all of us!"
"Withing a week, Kiri. Don't worry!" And with that last statement, Bakugou opened his window on the second floor of their house, and jumped, grabbing onto the rusty fire escape next door before kicking off it and landing on the old mattress that never moves from the alleyway.
He sighed, stretched, readjusted his bag, and left on his not-so-merry way to the nearest train station.
Author's note: This is an AU set in America, once all characters are a minimum of 25 years old. Kirishima and Bakugou share a house with Kaminari, Mina, and Sero, and all of them are heroes, so they're sometimes gone for weeks. Bakugou is actually not a hero in this AU, but is instead searching for his friend Midoriya Izuku, who left under mysterious circumstances at age 15, then reappeared in the villain pages two years later. Though Bakugou finished his stint in the hero course of UA high school, he was obsessed with finding his best friend.
Also, in this AU Izuku does have a quirk, a simple Speed Augment quirk. Therefore, Bakugou and Izuku stay friends, and it sort of seemed like there might be more, but Izuku disappeared before anything progressed.
Bakugou just refuses to believe that his best friend, who was obsessed with being a hero, would dissapear and then show up two years later as a villain.
It's a Bakudeku and a Tododeku fanfic, with a little TodoDabi sprinkled in.
