The Boy Who Loved Candy

CHAPTER NINE:

Giant bird looking creature emerged from the swirling mist as it cast a menacing shadow over Izuku, it's blank eyes boring into him as it squats down to meet the small boy's gaze. He remained unresponsive to the creature before a wide grin threaten to split his face in two, he reached out and hung his arms around the creature's neck; his stomach stinging as the dried blood on it made the flesh irritated. The Nomu continued to stare ahead but wrapped a singular arm around Izuku; securing the small child's place as it stood back to it's normal height; the faintest of a purr noise being heard by the boy.

Izuku was cradled in the monster's arm as he giggled, releasing one of his arms to gently rest it on his stomach, "Nom-nom, you're gonna go beat up the guy with the weird goggles and magic scarf~"

His black gloved fingers gently touched the underside of the Nomu's beak as the beast lowered Izuku to the ground gently; it then proceeded to launch itself at full force at the pro-hero. A low whistle leaving Izuku's lips as he had a hand resting on his brow, eyes flickering over to Kurogiri, "Didn't realise how fast the Nomu was…"

Kurogiri hummed softly, his deep voice wrapping around Izuku as the mist being moved closer to him, "Indeed the Nomu master has created is impressive, however, there are sure to be better ones produced in the future. Now, when we return home, I'm patching you up and if you don't complain too much, I'll give you some candy to rot away your teeth…"

A faint smirk curled at Kurogiri's lips as he watched Izuku's head snap up to meet his yellow orbs; evergreen eyes sparkling with excitement as the smaller launched himself at the taller. Wrapping thin arms tightly around a lean waist as giggles bubbled from Izuku, a large hand ruffling his pink locks, "Giri! You're the best!"

The smashing of concrete drew Izuku's attention back to the fight as the Nomu had pinned Aizawa down; blood pouring the wounds on the man's face. He hummed as he uncurled himself from the older man, clasping his hands together as he watched on with curiosity as a piercing screech left the monster's beak. A twisted grin adorned Shigaraki's dry lips as he released airy laughs at the sight of the injured hero.

An annoyed scoff was heard from Kurogiri: the purple mist curling dangerously as he grumbled, "A student has made it out of the building, pro-heroes will be here soon."

Izuku perked up at the mist villain as he pouted and began to nibble on his lower lip, "That's no good, we didn't even get to use the Nomu against All Might…"

"Dammit, dammit…" Shigaraki muttered under his breath as he began to scratch his neck. Izuku's brows scrunched together as he took a step forward to stop Shigaraki, but Kurogiri mumbled something that calmed him down enough for his nails to stop leaving red lines. A heavy sigh left his lips from all the miscalculations that had occurred, however a grin pulled at his mouth I noticed a "frog" and "Bird" in the water. A small giggle slipped from his lips as he slowly skipped over to the pair, arms crossed behind his back as he stopped several feet from them.

"You'll catch a cold if you stay in the water, well, the bird will~" Cotton candy coloured hair covered his right eye as he bent down to be in their line of sight, a soft smile curling at his lips as he interlocked his fingers behind his back. The bird narrowed its eyes while the frog seemed to stay aloof to his appearance; evergreen eyes widening as a dark mass shot towards as he barely managed to avoid the attack.

A strand of his pink hair swaying to the ground as he stuck out his lower lip and pouted, huffing, "That wasn't very nice, I hadn't even done anything to you… All I did was talk."

The sudden movement irritated the wound on his stomach; small droplets of blood gathering on the wound as he tried to subtly place his hand on the wound. Though applying pressure to the area only caused the blood to slowly seep through his already dirty shirt; red blotches tainting the baby blue fabric. Though with his other gloved hand he outstretched his to the others; a faint pink glowing from his hands as small wisps licked at the air.

"But, if we must have a tussle," A playful twinkle appeared in his eye as the muscles in his back tensed, "At least let me be prepared to turn you into something sweeter~"

His grinned widened to an almost impossible standard as he quickly lunged at the duo; hand glowing brighter as a loud band echoed throughout the USJ. He abruptly stopped as he turned his head to see what the noise came from, eyes widening in a fear that was infused with a childish excitement, his quiet voice drifting on the wind, "All Might…"

His thundering steps sent a shiver up Izuku's spine as he slowly backed away from the students; pivoting on his heel and running over to stand just behind Kurogiri. Evergreen orbs stared at the large hero as the Nomu stepped off Aizawa's barely conscious body and stood next to Shigaraki. His slender fingers gently wrapped around Giri's shirt as he gave a faint tug, whispering, "Giri… I have a bad feeling…"

"Everything will be alright, do not fear Izu," His deep voice soothed Izuku as he let his hand fall back to his side, taking a step away from the mist figure and then stumbling a few more back as All Might and the Nomu met fists. The impact of them colliding against one another brought about a force of wind that threaten to blow him away like a leaf in the wind; the loud cracking and crashes of cement breaking under their force like styrofoam.

Izuku watched on in amazement as the pro-hero suddenly overpowered the Nomu; sending the creature through the roof with one single punch. Izuku's fingers trembled as he tightly closed them into fists, gritting his teeth as fear streamed through his veins like crystallising water. His whole body was tense as he stared at the pro-hero, who was surround in a dust cloud that was slowly settling back onto the ground.

Izuku's lips parted about to speak when Shigaraki ran at the pro-hero, Giri's warp gate surrounding him as he appeared right in front; hand milometers from the hero's face as a gunshot rung out. Scarlet petals drifted in the air as Shiga was shot three more times; both legs and arms. With wide eyes he forced his legs to run forward towards Shiga; eyes narrowed as he growled lowly hands glowing a vibrant pink as he outstretched his hand to All Might, "Don't harm my family!"

A sharp pain pierced through his calf as a startled cry parted his lips as his knee gave way; falling onto the hard ground as Kurogiri quickly surrounded his body in a dark swirling mist. The mother-figure appeared behind of Izuku, gently picking him up and holding him close, like a mother to a child. Tears brimmed in his emerald eyes as Shigaraki hissed out a threat as Kurogiri took them home.

Giri's mist form disappeared as he quickly rushed to apply pressure to Shigaraki's wounds, wrapping a cloth tightly around each bleeding wound; his golden gaze flickering over to Izuku's, voice steady, "Go change and wash up, I will treat your wounds once I've done Shigaraki's."

Izuku numbly nodded his head as he limped to the bathroom; stripping of his clothing and sitting his pink wig to the side as he turned on the shower. Slipping under the warm water as he leant on the wall for support; his blood mixing with the water and making it a light pink. 'This was a mistake; I wasn't ready to go out. I'm still useless.'

Tears brimmed in his eyes as he rest his forehead against the cool surface of the tiled wall; a faint cry parting his lips. He stood under the warm water for a while, not noticing the time past until a faint knock was heard on the door. Izuku was startled from his thoughts as he turned of the taps, carefully taking a towel and wrapping it around his waist as he hoisted himself up onto the bench of the sink, "Come in."

Giri walked into the room with bandages and alcohol rub for the wounds; slowly beginning to treat the wounds as he gently pulled Izuku into his chest once he was finished. Combing his fingers through Izu's locks as he rubbed soothing circles on the boys back, "Oh, Izuku… You did you're best for the first time in the field; you captured two students. You have done well, so rest for the next couple days."
