Title: Magical Hero Bakugou Katsuki
Pairing: Todoroki Shouto x Bakugou Katsuki
Warnings: Silly attempts at humor, smut in next chapters.
Summary: Bakugou Katsuki picked up a small and hurt koala on his way back home, which turned out to be a magical prince from another world's kingdom, and when he asks for his help to defeat some evil forces with magical powers, somehow Bakugou's life becomes a ridiculous parody of those Magical Girl mangas.
English is not my mother language, so I apologize for any grammar mistake. I got this absurd idea from a lovely Japanese fanart I saw on twitter, where koala Todoroki transformed into a naked handsome boy in the middle of Bakugou's room. And I made up this universe in the middle of the night, so I'm sorry if this is kind of a mess. I don't intend the plot to be taken seriously, please just enjoy the silliness.
Magical Hero Bakugou Katsuki.
Chapter 1.
There was a koala in the alley.
A small, fluffy, gray koala, Bakugou knew it was no mistake, even though he had never been close to one, he had seen them once or twice in books or TV and it was definitely a koala.
Without thinking about it too much, Bakugou went straight towards the small animal in the dark and dirty pavement of the alley.
He had no idea how could such a foreign animal end up there with nobody noticing, but he didn't think about it that much, immediately kneeling next to it, to check its condition.
When he got a closer look, Bakugou noticed that the koala was breathing slowly, so it wasn't dead. Still, its fur was dirty and its body was unmoving, so it was probably unconscious or something like that.
Carefully, Bakugou checked if it had some kind of wound or broken limb in order to not move it abruptly, but when he noticed it only had some scratches that weren't very deep, he finally decided to pick it up with great care. The small fluffy body wasn't light but neither too heavy, and Bakugou turned it around to check it more thoroughly.
However, when he turned the koala's face towards him, Bakugou frowned a little. The seemingly unconscious koala had something like… a mass of dual colored red and white hair above its small head.
What the fuck? Was it a wig? Was it styled like that by someone? Was it someone's illegal pet?
Not only that, but it also had something like a scar around its left eye, at the side where it had red hair, somehow strangely matching. The scar didn't seem recent, but it was still big and noticeable.
Did someone do this to the poor little animal? Had someone hurt it like that out of sheer evil? Or had it been in some kind of accident? In any case, Bakugou felt a mix of anger and indignation, and thought that if someone had hurt the small animal like that, if there was a fucker who could do that kind of thing, they'd better be dead before Bakugou could find them and kill them himself.
Regardless, Bakugou knew that it wasn't the moment to lose time thinking about something like that, the most important thing was quickly taking the koala to somewhere he could be checked and took care of, but then he remembered he had no idea where a veterinary clinic could be. He had just moved into this city a couple of weeks ago and still wasn't completely used to its surroundings.
Cursing softly, Bakugou held the little koala with one of his arms, and looked for his cellphone in his pocket, thinking that he could probably look for information about a veterinary clinic online, but then he remembered it had run out of battery. He had forgotten to plug in the charger last night, before going to sleep, and he had ran out of battery at school. He cursed again, it was unbelievable.
He stopped to think for a moment. What could he do now? Should he ask for someone's help? He wasn't sure anyone would like to help him or take him to some veterinary clinic, and asking for directions also seemed like an inefficient idea…
His house, however, was just a few minutes away, he was about to arrive when he stopped to buy some snacks at a food stall and noticed the animal in the alley. Perhaps the best idea at the moment was quickly going home and searching for information online. Besides, the koala didn't seem to be in a particularly critical condition, so it probably could wait before he found the address of a veterinary clinic, or some kind of animal care center around the city.
Making up his mind, Bakugou readjusted his hold in the little koala, softly accommodating it on his shoulder, and started running towards home, trying to not move it too brusquely. It didn't took him long before arriving at the apartment where he lived with his parents. At this time, none of them were home, so Bakugou didn't worry about any kind of explanation, and quickly grabbed his keys to open the door and enter the building.
He immediately went upstairs, towards his bedroom, and closed the door after entering it. He discarded his backpack in the floor and went to his bed. He picked a towel from the closet and put it above the bed before gently placing the koala in it.
Bakugou checked the koala for a moment, noticing it still breathed softly, its eyelids trembled a little, but didn't have any other wound, so he left it there to quickly go towards his computer on his desk and open his internet browser.
He was just typing what he wanted when a strange voice resounded from somewhere.
"Who… are you…?"
Bakugou stopped immediately and looked around him with distrust, immediately getting defensive.
"WHO THE FUCK IS THERE?" Bakugou asked aggressively. Was there someone else in his room? A burglar? Would he have to kick someone's ass?
"Where… Where am I…? W-Was it you who picked me up?"
Bakugou noticed the voice sounded tired and strangely echoed, like it came from nowhere, like it went straight towards his head. It didn't seem to come from any particular place of his room, but that didn't make any sense, so Bakugou again looked defensively around his room, ready for anything.
"WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?! SHOW YOURSELF, YOU SHIT!"
"I'm over here…"
The strange echoed voice came accompanied by another sound, which Bakugou now did recognize its origin and immediately looked towards it. It had been some kind of purr or grunt and it came from the small koala in Bakugou's bed, which was now awake, sitting at the bed and looking towards him.
…What…?
"What the fuck?" Bakugou blurted, without even noticing. Wait. What was this…? Why was…? Did this mean…?
"Please, do not panic… There's a logical explanation for this…" The voice sounded again in Bakugou's mind at the same time that the small koala grunted towards him again. It looked exactly as if the animal was the one talking to him. Bakugou blinked again, unable to snap out of his stupor.
"W-What is this? Am I fucking high or something, are you…?" Bakugou kind of stuttered. "Are you the one talking to me?"
"Yes." The koala nodded. Bakugou now noticed it also had heterochromic blue and grey eyes. "If you calm down and trust me, I can explain this situation, I'm sure you must be very confused."
"You're… You're a… talking koala, some fucking koala is talking to me…" Bakugou murmured to himself. "What kind of shitty dream or hallucination is this?"
"Please calm down, this is no dream nor hallucination, I can explain properly if you give me the chance." The voice said again, while the koala kept looking seriously at Bakugou with its cute round eyes and Bakugou blinked again, several times. He didn't seem to be waking up.
"Uh…" Bakugou frowned. For some reason, his anger had been cooled by the sheer nonsense of what was happening. "Yeah, well… I guess… if this fucked up dream will continue, I can at least let you explain…"
"However, I'm still a little weak…" The koala's voice in Bakugou's head insisted. "I need to recover my energy and heal these small wounds first… Could you please help me?"
"And…How the fuck do I do that…?" Bakugou murmured, without really thinking about it, still in some disconnected state. This dream kept going on and he couldn't stop staring at the cute koala that seemed to be talking to him with some kind of telepathy.
"I need some water and food… Would you be so kind to offer me some?"
It took a moment for Bakugou to register what the koala was saying and then think about answering or doing something. Then, Bakugou frowned again.
"What the fuck do koalas eat?" Bakugou asked, getting kind of exasperated again.
"I'm not a koala…" The voice said and Bakugou's frown deepened. "Well… What I mean is, any kind of food would be ok…"
Bakugou looked at it, still way too bewildered by what was happening to make any other comment. He kept expecting to wake up or to have the dream turn into some other bizarre thing.
Still… A talking koala wasn't the weirdest thing he remembered dreaming of. This was at least kind of cute.
"Ok…" Bakugou finally said. He tried to remember if he had some food here at the room so he wouldn't have to go all the way down to the kitchen. He remembered then he had bought some apples along with the snack in the way home, and took his backpack, which was still in the floor, close to his feet. He opened his backpack and took out a paper bag with some apples inside. He showed the apples to the koala. "Is this ok?"
"Yes, thank you…" The small koala nodded and when Bakugou threw the apples over the bed, it moved towards them to pick them up and start eating slowly.
Bakugou stared while the koala ate the apples in small bites and then, he couldn't help raising an eyebrow when he extended an open water bottle towards the animal and it also took the bottle with its two… paws, hands? And drank from it slowly.
This… hallucination or dream or whatever had managed to remain weird and vivid for too long already.
And if that wasn't enough, suddenly a faint white glow enveloped the body of the small koala and the few scratches and wounds in its body suddenly started healing. In a moment it seemed to be completely recovered, even the tired and pitiful expression in its eyes was gone.
"It seems I still retain a certain level of my powers…" The voice of the koala talked again, this time with more energy. "It is very limited, thought… If my wounds had been deeper, I wouldn't have been able to heal them. However, if it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have been able to do even this."
Bakugou sort of payed attention to what the koala said, and had already started to wonder when he would wake up or something, but a strange feeling in his gut was starting to tell him that all this didn't seem precisely unreal. The sudden dread of that thought made him ignore it again.
"O-OK…" Bakugou murmured, unable to answer any other thing, still lost in his thoughts. Suddenly, the koala's cute heterochromic eyes widened and it sat straighter in the bed.
"Oh, excuse my rudeness. Please, allow me to introduce myself and explain this strange situation." The koala's voice said. Bakugou was starting to get annoyed by how polite and nice it sounded. The timbre was low and soft, very likeable, though it was way too… manly for the cute appearance of the koala. Bakugou kept frowning.
The koala closed its eyes, lowered its head and made something that would have looked like a very elegant bow in a human. Bakugou's stunned frown deepened.
"My name is Todoroki Shouto." The koala's voice finally said and it looked again at Bakugou. "I am the prince of a kingdom called Cold Flame, which exists in a different dimension from the one of this world. I'm sure it must be hard for you to believe it, but there is magic in my kingdom, that is how I'm speaking to you right now. The fact that you touched my body has enabled you to interact with this magic."
The koala's voice spoke with extreme seriousness, and Bakugou raised his eyebrows high, very high. The Koala kept talking, though.
"In my kingdom, our magic powers come from our dreams and wishes, but a few months ago, evil forces that we call Nightmares appeared suddenly and started eating people's magic by robbing them of their wishes and dreams. They travel in different dimensions, eating people's feelings of frustration or anxiousness, caused by their unfulfilled wishes and dreams, and with that they eat their magic, becoming stronger. Since I'm a warrior in my kingdom, my powers allowed me to fight against the Nightmares and defend my people. In one of the battles, I managed to weak them enough to eliminate them completely. However, before I could do it, they managed to discover this world."
The koala lowered its round face and an unfittingly frustrated expression appeared in it. Bakugou crossed his arms above his chest, but the koala's voice continued talking dramatically.
"In this world there are so many unfulfilled wishes, it was the perfect place for them to feed and grow strong again, so they fled here and I followed them in order to finish them off. Still, the lack of magic in this world affected my powers and when I arrived, I wasn't able to stabilize them in time and they defeated me. They managed to lay a curse on me, turning me into this powerless form and stealing most of my magic. They're not strong enough yet to do more than that, so I think I'm still on time to stop them. I need to recover my powers, so I can go back to my original form. In order to do so, I have to defeat the Nightmares that came into this world and give back the wishes and dreams that were stolen from the people of this world."
The koala seemed to sigh softly, but then it looked straight into Bakugou's eyes with seriousness.
"Little by little, I can retrieve my powers and break this curse to completely defeat the Nightmares, but I can't do it in this state and form. That's why, I want to ask for your help. Since you took the trouble of saving me and picking me up, it must be your destiny. Please, work with me and help me defeat this evil that threatens both your world and mine."
The koala looked at Bakugou, its cute round eyes were deep and expectant. Bakugou stared for one long instant, still frowning and blinking repeatedly. Finally, after a long sigh, Bakugou answered.
"Okay, if my mind is making this shit up, I would' have expected something less girly. I don't remember watching Sailor Moon or some of that crap before going to sleep"
The koala's face turned into worry and frustration, and it made a distressed sound, while moving forward a little.
"I already told you, this is no dream nor hallucination. It must be hard to believe, but-…"
"No, no." Bakugou interrupted angrily, raising a hand in a stop signal. "I've had enough of fucking talking koalas and magical princes' bullshit, this ridiculous hallucination has to end." Bakugou growled, and immediately pinched his arm, hard. "Fuck!" He cursed when nothing happened, his arm hurt and the dream didn't disappear.
"I can look for a way to prove you this is real…" The koala insisted. "But it might take too much time and the Nightmares will come here to finish me off soon, they just barely hurt me and they know it. With the curse on my body, I can't properly use the remains of my power to fight, and they will try to take advantage on that, but I can pass my powers to you." The koala's voice sounded a little desperate. "If I give them to you, you can fight the Nightmares and help me retrieve all my powers again to break the curse. Please, I need your help!"
"Shut the fuck up!" Bakugou growled, already exasperated. "I'm not interested in this nonsense, I want this stupid shit to finish, wake me up!"
"This is real, please believe me." The koala's voice said, calmly this time, even though Bakugou was cursing angrily. "Listen… If you helped me, you could finally make your dream come true… You could become a hero…"
Bakugou stopped his protests for a moment and his face turned into a deeply surprised expression.
"How… do you know that?" He murmured softly. The koala's eyes looked straight at him, so Bakugou frowned again. Nobody knew about that stupid dream from his childhood, how could this fucker know about it?
"I can listen to the strongest wishes of people's hearts, since most of my powers come from there." The koala's voice explained gently. "That is a very nice dream, you could make it happen-…"
"Of course you would know, my brain is making all of this up!" Bakugou exclaimed, rolling his eyes angrily.
"No, please, you have to believe me. Isn't me being here enough proof? How can I prove this is real?"
Then, Bakugou hesitated. What would happen if this weird thing turned out to be real? If he told the koala something and it managed to prove him this was no dream, what would he do?
All this situation was so weird, but… He honestly felt in the real world, he knew a few hours ago he had been at school and everything seemed like real life… Besides… was it really that unbelievable? Wasn't there a possibility that all of this was real? Even if it seemed like some kind of magic themed manga… But, as incredible as everything seemed, the only fitting explanation was… that this was really happening…
"You know that this is real right?" The koala said at that exact moment. Bakugou frowned at it but didn't answer. "Please." The koala insisted. "You were gentle enough to pick me up, I know you can help me."
"Enough of this shit, even if this were happening, yeah, let's suppose this is happening, I am definitely not gonna get involved, I'll just have to take you to some fucking veterinary clinic and all this will be over"
"No!" The koala's voice pleaded. "Please, even though you have a foul mouth, I can see you have a strong and pure heart, and that is something needed for me to pass my powers, I know that must be the reason why we met."
"The fuck, pure heart, that's some funny shit" Bakugou snorted, but the heterochromic eyes looked at him seriously.
"You picked me up, didn't you?"
Bakugou also got serious again and then some weird bashfulness got over him, so he averted his eyes, pretending indifference.
"...That's… Anyone would have done that…"
"It doesn't matter, it's enough proof for me and it wasn't anyone, it was you. It has to be you."
Bakugou looked at the… could he keep calling it koala? The voice that talked to him sounded so much like a person's and the eyes were staring intently. Bakugou couldn't help a strange feeling that got over him when he heard those last words and could only stare at the double colored eyes in front of him.
There was a pause, a long moment of silence, but it didn't last long.
Way too suddenly, the sky got unbelievably dark and the room also got obscure, since Bakugou hadn't turn on the lights, it had been enough with the light that came from the opened windows. But now, thick black clouds formed above the house, darkening the ambient completely, and Bakugou looked towards the window, frowning.
"The fuck?" He murmured, while he stood up to go and look outside through the window. Outside, down in the streets, a few people had gathered to stare at the strange accumulation of clouds that had appeared suddenly and converged mostly above Bakugou's house.
"They're already here." The koala's voice said, this time with a grave and serious tone. Bakugou felt a sudden sense of dread in his stomach.
"What?" He asked, angrily, looking at the koala. Honestly, there was no way this… was happening, was it?
"We must hurry." The koala said, trying to reach his paws towards Bakugou. "Come, I have to pass my powers to you."
"No fucking way, this is not-…"
The abrupt roar of a thunder came from the sky, surrounding Bakugou's house, making it shake strongly, like an earthquake. Bakugou lost his balance, but managed to hold onto his desk to not fall.
When the shaking stopped, Bakugou looked up again and there was some kind of black misty entity inside of his room that apparently had materialized with the rumble. Bakugou felt immediately shocked, the thing had something like a face, red shining eyes, some ugly dark hole for a mouth and creepy long arms that extended themselves towards the koala in his bed. Bakugou's first instinctive reaction was moving towards it to try and do something, but before he could, the koala stared angrily at the misty monster and expelled a strong light that repelled the monster for an instant. Bakugou closed his eyes, blinded by the light.
"Boy, come quickly, we must-…" Bakugou heard the voice of the koala again, this time with a desperate timbre, but a grunt interrupted its words and Bakugou opened his eyes again.
The misty monster had recovered quickly and its ugly claws had grabbed the small body of the koala. Again, Bakugou tried to stand up and do something, but the monster was already leaving through the window with the koala in its grasp. Without really thinking what he was doing, Bakugou moved again.
"WAIT! GIVE IT BACK, YOU FUCKER!" Bakugou screamed and tried to run after the monster. He managed to jump and hold the koala's body for a moment, but his hands slipped easily and when he tried to grab onto something else, his hands went through the misty body of the monster. When the black substance touched his skin, it seemed to suck something from him, like his energy or some intangible thing, and a horrible sense of emptiness, terror and coldness left him paralyzed for a moment. Unable to do anything to prevent his fall, Bakugou crashed hard into the floor of his room, the strong pain in his back waking him up from the paralysis, but making him groan in discomfort.
It took him some effort and two attempts before he managed to get on his feet again, trying his best to ignore the pain in his back. He ran out of his room and downstairs, immediately going to the front door, reaching the street outside of his house.
For some reason, it had started raining terribly, like a typhoon or something, and the people in the streets were already running away from the weird unexpected storm. No one seemed to have noticed the black monster that held a struggling koala in the air. Was he the only one who could see this? Did this all had to do with picking up a magical koala from the streets?
Bakugou noticed his heart was beating incredibly fast from the surge of adrenaline in his body. What kind of messed up situation was this? He couldn't deny this reality anymore, but what was he supposed to do now? Could he really do something about all of this?
The helpless koala kept trying to get away from the monster that held him, again expelling the light from before, but it didn't seem to be working anymore, it even seemed weaker than the first time. Bakugou noticed that the monster was trying to suck the light from the koala with its ugly mouth, and Bakugou immediately moved towards them again. He didn't know if he could do something, but he had to. He couldn't just stand there and watch. He looked around him, trying to find something that could be useful, maybe he could reach the koala and free it from the monster, but then something unexpected happened.
"Katsuki?!"
Bakugou turned around, terrified, when he recognized his mother's voice. His mother, Mitsuki was trying to walk towards him, having a lot of trouble because of the strong wind and the rain. She was obviously coming back from work and was drenched, still holding her bag, trying to protect herself from the rain. She didn't seem to have noticed anything strange happening either.
"Katsuki, what are you doing outside the house?! It's dangerous!" She screamed trough the strong sound of the wind.
"GET INSIDE THE HOUSE RIGHT NOW, HAG! HURRY UP!" Bakugou screamed immediately, signaling towards the door.
"YOU GET INSIDE FIRST, YOU LITTLE SHIT, DON'T ORDER ME AROUND!" She screamed back, obviously angry. Bakugou felt incredibly frustrated, but before he said or did anything else, a strong light blinded him again.
The koala had expelled another one of his attacks and the misty monster seemed to dissolve almost completely, making a horrible pained cry. The monster let go of the koala and Bakugou ran towards it to catch it. He managed to protect it from the fall, but when he looked up again, a little relieved, he noticed the fogy monster hadn't been completely eliminated.
The remains of the monster seemed to have weakened a lot and it was trying gather itself again, the small amounts of the dispersed fog getting together again. It moved restlessly and then Bakugou noticed it was looking for something, probably to try to recover its strength.
When the weakened monster seemed to turn towards his mom, Bakugou felt his hear stopping.
"DON'T!" He screamed, but it was useless and the monster immediately went towards his mother.
The horrible misty creature draped itself around Mitsuki and her face immediately turned pale and frightened. She started trembling intensely, like she was in a terrible cold, and her eyes started losing their light. The monster put its face in front of hers and opened the creepy hole it had for a mouth. Bakugou felt a chill in his body when he noticed the monster was sucking something from his mom.
Bakugou tried to run towards them again, but the monster had started getting bigger and stronger as it sucked something out of Mitsuki, and when Bakugou tried to reach them, a strong and awful evil force repelled him, sending him flying back. He hit himself in the pavement, but immediately stood up and looked again. Was there no way of helping his mother? What was that bastard doing to her?
Bakugou noticed then that some beautiful and colorful shine started coming out of his mother, being sucked by the monster's mouth, and suddenly Bakugou saw there was something like indefinite images in it. It was difficult, but Bakugou managed to make up some of the images… they were images of him…
In the middle of the colorful shine, Bakugou saw himself graduating from highschool and college, accompanied by his family. Then, he saw himself finding a god job. He saw himself spending more time with his family in the future, he saw himself being really happy, and he saw his family being always together.
Those were… those were his mother's dreams and wishes. The monster was eating them out of her, sucking the beautiful shiny images out of his mother's body, her heart and soul. Mitsuki's face had turned completely pale and empty, tired and utterly depressed. It was horrible and Bakugou felt a horrible anguish take all over his body. He couldn't look any longer. This was definitely a nightmare and this nightmare had to end.
Bakugou took the koala, which seemed almost completely worn out, and lifted it at his face's level.
"LET ME SAVE HER!" Bakugou screamed.
The koala, tired and hurt, opened its double colored eyes with a surprised expression. It immediately turned severe.
"You have to take my powers to save her! Do you agree to this responsibility?!"
"YES! DO IT ALREADY!"
The koala extended its paw and it touched Bakugou's chest, right above his heart. Bakugou felt a strange warmness being transmitted to his heart. It wasn't a common warmness, it certainly felt… magic.
"What is your name?" The koala's voice asked. Bakugou still felt restless but answered quickly.
"Bakugou Katsuki."
"Bakugou Katsuki." The voice called his name, firm and deep. "I, Todoroki Shouto, prince of the Cold Flame Kingdom, am now transmitting my magical powers to you."
Then, the warmness in Bakugou's heart became hot and ardent as fire, while a strong light emitted itself from the koala's paw, enveloping Bakugou's heart. Bakugou held a groan, because his heart was burning, as if receiving and trying to keep inside an overflow of burning flames. Then, it suddenly stopped, his heart seemed to finish taking all the magical warmness inside, managing to keep it.
"Now my powers are yours!" The voice said. "To control them, you have to use your dreams and wishes! Remember your dream of being a hero and give them the right shape for you!"
Bakugou immediately remembered his dream of a child.
He remembered when he used to think of himself as a cool and powerful hero who could defeat any enemy.
Another light enveloped his body and Bakugou closed his eyes for an instant. When the light subsided, he opened them again and looked at himself.
He was now wearing a hero costume, pretty much like the one he had imagined as a kid, but way better. He wore a black sleeveless shirt fitting his torso, black baggy pants with knee guards above his boots, and incredibly cool grenade shaped gloves, along with some other accessories. On his face, he could feel a mask that covered his eyes and remembered he had also imagined that as a kid. Was all of this real…? It was so amazing.
"Now you can beat the Nightmare! Get it now, Bakugou!" The voice said.
"You don't have to tell me!" Bakugou answered, immediately turning towards the fucker that was attacking his mom.
If Bakugou had understood correctly and what he had been told was true, all he had to do to control these powers was dream and wish, right? He had spent enough time in his childhood dreaming how he would use his hero powers to know exactly what he wanted to do.
He extended his arms and palms toward his back and just by thinking about it, warmness started charging itself in them, turning into combustion. Exactly like he had planned as a kid, explosions generated themselves in his palms, and he used them as impulse to jump through the air and cover in seconds the distance that separated him from the monster and his mother.
With the same impulse, Bakugou made a spin to kick the fucking monster with his feet, using all of his strength, and feeling incredibly satisfied when his kick didn't get lost in the fog, but instead smashed itself against the creature, sending it flying away from his mother. Bakugou landed on the pavement of the street, right in time to catch his mother who fainted, apparently tired, but still alive. He put her gently on the ground and turned towards the monster again.
The creature had gathered itself again and now turned towards Bakugou, growling in a horribly distorted voice, opening its ugly mouth, but Bakugou didn't felt the least bit scared. He snarled, growled at it, equally angry, and didn't wait any other moment before jumping at it again, one more time using the explosions from his hands to impulse himself.
The monster spit some projectile-shaped black goo from its mouth, which seemed sharp enough to pierce him completely, but Bakugou reacted quickly and avoided them, using his combustion to move, still in mid-air. In an instant he finally had reached the fucking monster and then he didn't hold back.
He charged all the power he could in his right hand and jumped straight at the monsters face.
"DIE!" He roared, while smashing his hand at the monsters face and exploding it with everything he had.
The explosion was huge and powerful, exactly like Bakugou used to imagine them. The fire enveloped and burned the monster's body completely, even sending Bakugou himself flying away, but he regained his stability in the air and managed to land properly.
Bakugou looked at the dispersing fire and smoke, where horrible moaning was coming from, and recognized what seemed like the distorted shape of the foggy creature. Its body was almost completely burning away, turning into ashes that also disappeared slowly. Then, before its face was consumed completely, its mouth opened and freed the beautiful and colorful shine that Bakugou had seen being stolen from his mother.
It went back softly towards her body in the ground and gently gathered around her before, somehow, entering her body through her chest, close to her heart and soul.
The rain stopped completely, the sky cleared and Bakugou ran towards his mother to pick her up, checking her condition. Slowly, the color of her face turned back to normal and her body also seemed to get healthier, her breathing stabilizing little by little.
Bakugou sighed softly and turned towards the last remains of the monster. Its body had almost completely burned off, but when the last ashes disappeared, something was left behind.
A small red and white light orb was floating in the air, where the monster had disappeared. It was very pretty… What was that?
Before Bakugou did anything, the orb started moving and went towards the small koala's body that was still in the ground, unable to get up. Was that the stolen powers the koala had talked about so much?
Apparently, they were, because the dual colored light also draped gently around the koala's body, making it shine for a moment before disappearing inside it. Right after that, the koala's small wound's seemed to heal and it opened its eyes slowly.
Bakugou picked up his mother's body and went towards the koala, who now seemed recovered enough to stand and also walk towards him.
"You were amazing. I knew you were the right one for this. You were meant to be a hero." The koala's voice said softly, almost proudly, and only then Bakugou noticed something.
If all of this was real, the koala was not really a koala. He was indeed a magical prince. He felt kind of silly calling it a koala now. What was his name again?
"I know." Bakugou answered, while trying to remember. "I'm always amazing at everything I do."
"Then that makes me feel at ease." The koala prince said softly. "With your help, I'm sure recovering my powers will be possible. I thank you from the bottom of my heart, Bakugou."
For some reason, Bakugou felt a little uncomfortable with those words, the sound of his name in that smooth and gentle voice was strange and it was almost as if he felt bashful, but he quickly dismissed the feeling. However, it was then that he remembered the name of the koala prince.
"Yeah, Yeah, whatever." He groaned. "Now let's get back inside the house. Hop on, Todoroki."
Todoroki looked at Bakugou, a little surprised. He hadn't expected the boy to call his name so suddenly. However, he couldn't help making a pleased grunt and immediately hoped onto Bakugou's leg. He climbed through the boy's waist and back until he reached his shoulder, where he grabbed himself firmly.
Bakugou started walking towards his home, thinking everything seemed to be over and then his hero costume disappeared, turning into shining dust. He had his normal clothes again and Bakugou noticed they probably disappeared because he had thought he didn't need them anymore.
Then, his mother squirmed softly and opened her eyes. Bakugou felt relieved again when he noticed her eyes weren't empty and dead anymore. She had her usual crimson and warm gaze.
"Katsuki…?" She asked softly, as if waking up from a nap. "What are you doing? What…?"
"Shut up hag, you suddenly fainted from tiredness, get some fucking sleep." Bakugou answered calmly. She frowned, but still seemed very sleepy.
"Don't talk to your mother like that, you little shit…" She complained softly, but a yawn interrupted her, and suddenly she was asleep again.
"She's right." Todoroki's voice suddenly said, and Bakugou looked at the small koala on his shoulder. "You mustn't speak to your mother in such way."
"Shut the fuck up, it's none of your business."
Although Todoroki seemed to want to keep talking, Bakugou ignored him and finally entered his house. He put his mom in her bed and returned to his room, unable to stop thinking about everything that had happened.
He had no more doubt that all of this had been real.

However, Bakugou felt kind of happy. His mother was okay, he had managed to protect her, and… He had actually been a hero…
A weird smile drew itself on his lips and he had to cover his mouth to hide it. His heart was beating faster again. It was exciting, he had felt really cool. It was like his dream really came true. Maybe this wasn't so bad?
