Bakugou woke up, he was in the infirmary with a killer headache. It did not take him long to recall the villain attack that had happened earlier. It was just a normal day of class, and everyone had gone to the training area for quirk training, nothing out of the ordinary. At this point it was almost expected for the villains to show up. Still, it angered him to have been knocked out, the overwhelming sense of failure clouding his head. There was not anything he could have done though; they knew his quirk and he was at a huge disadvantage not knowing theirs. Still, All Might could have taken them down no problem, could. He shook that thought out of his head, if he wanted to be number one, he must move forward he can't keep wallowing in his own self pity. Besides Bakugou had the best quirk, everyone told him that ever since it first appeared.
"You're up" Recovery girl stated, walking over to him. "You should be fine, although if you have any problems make sure to come back." He just walked out of the room with his hands shoved deep into his pockets. There was not a need to reply, she said herself he was fine. He made his way to the dorms, quickly passing everyone in the common room. They did not seem to notice him, continuing with there own conversation as he made his way to his room. He passed by kirishima's room, although something looked wrong. He looked up at the name plate, instead of the normal 'Kirishima Eijiro', was 'Yosetsu Awase'.
"You okay?" He heard a voice behind him ask, "You've been standing outside my door for a bit, do you need something?" It was a spiky black-haired boy asked, although it was not as spiky as Eijiro's hair, he wore a white bandana with blue stripes crossing over. Bakugou could not place where he had seen him before, but it was not his main concern at the moment.
"Your room? This is shitty hairs." The other mad a confused face "Kirishima, Kirishima Eijiro." The boy did not look anymore aware of who he was talking about. Instead of trying to get him to understand he pushed passed him hitting his shoulder before stomping over to Mina's room. He knocked on the door, and a few seconds later the pink haired girl opened her door. She looked shocked and confused to see Bakugou at her door, and if Bakugou didn't know her better he would say she looked scared. Although knowing Mina he knew she was more than comfortable making fun of him along with Kaminari and Sero.
"What's up?"
"Shitty hair, his room isn't there. Some extra is now in his room what happened?" Mina looked confused, furrowing her eyebrows as if that would help answer his question. "Kirishima" He tried again, "Eijiro"
"Where have I heard that name before?" She asked, placing her finger to her cheek as she thought. "Oh! Kiri, haven't seen him since middle school. Wait, what are you talking about?"
"Some extra, Awase or something is in his room. Where is he?"
"Yosetsu? Of course he is in the dorms he is in our class, wait how do you even know Kirishima? He goes to Ketsubutsu Academy High school, did you meet him during the provisional licensing exam?"
"NO, I met him at school, in our class." Mina gave Bakugou a worried look, pulling her lips in.
"I think you should go see recovery girl; you aren't making any sense."
Bakugou left, he was not sure what to say. Mina had played pranks on him loads of times, but it felt different this time. Her usual bubbly self was not there, instead it felt like a front. He walked back in the direction of his room, passing dunce face along the way.
"Dunce face" He called out to the blond boy, with the weird black lighting bolt at the side of his hair. The boy turned around, not looking happy to see him. His normal happy smile, or playful smirk was gone and replaced with a hateful stare.
"What?" He asked harshly, no playful banter or calling him Kacchan just to annoy him.
"Nothing, what's wrong with you?" Now this was definitely weird, Kamanari was dumb, playful and kind. Bakugou had never seen this side to him, not since the first day of school, before Kirishima and him became fast friends and followed Bakugou around like little ducklings.
"Never heard of him" Just as Bakugou had thought, there was definitely something going on. He could always try one more person to double check, but he did not need too. He knew something was off about the last guy and his quirk, he just needed to find out what. On a good note, he knew exactly how to do it, on a bad note he would have to talk to Deku. It was not like he hated the nerd, sure he was infuriating and annoying, he muttered too much, and never knew when to leave someone alone. Not to mention he had gotten All Might's power, but he had forgiven him, or he had forgiven himself, they were not on great terms yet, but they also were not on bad terms. Still asking the nerd anything was not anything Bakugou ever liked, he started glaring even thinking about having to talk to Deku.
"What, are you gonna blast me cause I don't know this Kirashuma kid?" Dunce face asked, Bakugou ignored him turning around and heading to the common room to find Deku. Normally he would have yelled or exploded something, but he felt like he was in a daze. The nerd was sitting on the couch beside Uraraka, both their faces painted a bright pink as the others talked about crushes. Bakugou huffed, rather ripping out his own eyes than watching this awkward romance.
"Deku" Bakugou called out, his voice sounding angry just from his name. All eyes were going between him and Deku, the class silent waiting for something to happen. "We need to talk" He jabbed his finger in the direction of the door, Deku nodded slowly getting up and walking outside. The group whispering amongst themselves as the two met outside. The green haired boy fiddled with his fingers, looking scared.
"What's up Kacchan?" He asked, looking up at the blond boy.
"You know the last attack, where i got knocked out or whatever?" He cringed, even saying it sounded awful. It made him seem weak, being knocked out by a petty villain. "What was his Quirk?"
"Oh right, you weren't there when we got the briefing by the heroes. It was weird, they weren't a hundred percent sure on what his quirk was, but they have a few theory's. The first one is the most plausible since it fits in with a kid that went missing a couple years back that matches his age. It goes with the whole parallel world's theory. He can go between parallel worlds and can even interact and take things with him back and forth. Although they have no idea what he can take back and forth, like how big it can be if it had to be the same in both worlds or not. They aren't even sure if he can choose where he goes, the whole thing is a mystery. They also don't have any clue on limitations. Although it could also be illusion, or time quirk which is what everyone thought it was." He mumbled for a bit, as he rambled on about all the different kinds of quirks he could have, but all Bakugou took away is that they had no idea.
"Cool" He said cutting the boy off, "Thank you, or whatever." The green haired boy's mouth dropped, as if he had just heard the most shocking thing in the world.
"W-what?"
"I'm not a kid, I know how to say thanks don't make it a big deal or whatever. Although if you tell anyone I'll blast you away so hard, they won't be able to find you." With that he walked into the door and went into his room. He had a lot to process, the first being, Kirishima was not part of UA anymore. Out of all the kids what Kirishima? He had no leads on what happened, since they didn't even know the villain's quirk. He also had no idea why Racoon eyes and dunce face were acting so weird. Usually, they were a lot more open and friendly, they were acting like they had when they had first joined UA. Although his main focus right now was Shitty hair, I mean the boy couldn't even cook breakfast without him. Besides, he owed the red head, he saved him when he needed it so of course Bakugou was just returning the debt. There was nothing else to it, no other reason.
He laid down on his bed, before pulling out his phone, selecting contacts. He wasn't expecting to find Shitty hair, but he wasn't expecting to only see his father and mothers contacts. Where was Racoon eyes, Dunce face, Soy Sause face, or even Ears? He sat up refreshing his contacts, trying to find them. That half explains their weird attitude, maybe they weren't close, without Dumb hair, he never had a reason to talk to them. In fact, Sparky didn't like him in the beginning he rebreed him telling him that when they all barged into his room late one night, for some bonding time. Of course right after Bakugou blew him to high heavens for that comment making everyone laugh. He went to google typing in 'Red Riot', only to find articles on Crimson Riot the chivalrous hero. Kirishima had debuted as a hero months ago when he was back home. Although without the sports festival, or the training with Fat Gum's agency. he tried 'Kirishima Eijiro' Nothing came up, except some random people and social media pages.
There wasn't anything Bakugou could do now except hope that tomorrow he is back home.
