HERE WE GO AGAIN GUYS!
Welcome to my new story and I hope you like it!
I've always been intrigued by Boku no Hero's Halloween stories and finding EVERYTHING about this plot is ALWAYS my weakness.
ANYWAYS, ENJOY!
Also, this story will have major themes such as sexual content and graphic or killing themes which I don't belive to be soo graphic but just in case.
If you like steamy scenes like I do, I humbly recommend you to read my other two stories (My hero and Game of kings: What could go wrong?,specially the second one).
Welcome to The Other Side!
Lots of questions ran through Midoriya Izuku's head the moment he opened his eyes and wished there was some way to explain without being insane of how he got here.
Holding onto his last memory, had he fallen down to hell or something?
From afar, Izuku looked at the unfamiliar landscape with a face as if he was used to his surroundings. It was nothing like the buildings of the city he knows, in fact, it reminded him of the horrific setting that was only found in halloween themed movies or of medieval fantasy movies.
"Are you alright?"
A voice filled with worries he was not used to captured his attention and turned his head towards it, there stood a young girl with a pink dress and the color pink dusting her cheeks.
"I think I am." Izuku said as he looked at the stranger.
"My name is Ochako Uraraka!" The girl approached him and drew her hand out to him so he would get up with her help.
He blushed by the unexpected behaviour, then took her hand in embarrassment when he realized that he was still on the floor. "Thank you."
"What's your name?"
"Midoriya Izuku." He replied with a smile as he got on his feet.
The girl doesn't notice his awkwardness and leans her face towards him until their noses touch which makes the boy beet red. "I don't mean to be intrusive, but what are you doing here?"
"Oh! I...Uhm." Izuku scratches the back of his neck. "That's what I'd like to know."
Would it be appropriate to ask if this place was hell or something?
"What is this place?"
"You must be new here!" Ochako clasped her hands together in realization."Welcome to The Other Side! My friend!" The girl shouted and the boy nodded slightly which made her inside flutter because of the cute gesture. "This is where lost souls and monsters gather around...also where the abandoned objects of the human world end up, so...Uhm...Not exactly hell nor heaven." She explained looking at the discharged things on the floor around them as she motioned with her hands in an exaggerated manner.
Izuku places his hands in front of his lips and giggles, then his eyes look over her shoulder to find a broom suspended in the air. He strode towards it to lean forward in fascination and ran a hand along the wood frame then jumped back in surprise when the broom seemed to whine enthusiastically.
"What am I doing? I must bring you to Chiyo to tell what type of creature you are!" Her eyes turned back at Izuku but the boy was nowhere to be seen. Then she glanced behind her when she heard a voice filled with wonder and excitement, the new guy was already sitting over the broom waiting for her. "It looks like you'll adapt just fine."
"What kind of mechanism do you use to make this object float?" Izuku muttered with a hand on his chin as he admired the flying object and looked at her then at the broom and back at her.
"Magic, dummy!" Ochako sat in front of him and winked at him while kicking the floor to take flight. They flew up in the skies towards the town and after a while, Ochako moved her legs to the side to face the boy as her feet moved enthusiastically in the air. "I'll give you a brief preview of what you're about to encounter."
"Shouldn't you be looking at the road!?"
"Worry not! This baby knows the way!" Ochako gave him a reassuring smile, she slapped the broom and it made a strange sound in response as if being alive. "I have experience with things that float, so you won't fall...I hope." She whispered the last part.
"Huh?"
"Anyways!" She said it a little too loud to change the subject. "Just to point out the obvious." She gave him a two-fingered salute with a big smile. "I'm a witch."
Izuku nodded and waited for her to continue, he was amazed by the mere fact that they were flying through the skies.
"There are lots of different creatures such as ghosts, mummies, werewolves, vampires and many more, but those are the basics."
Izuku watched her in shock for a full minute. "Vampires?! Werewolves?!" He finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Yes!" Ochako extended her arms in the air.
"Vampires as in 'gonna suck your blood' kind of thing?" Izuku moved his arms frantically, imitating a bat's wings and because of that he almost fell from the broom.
Ochako looks really happy talking about this. "And werewolves as in 'naked after he returns to human' kind of thing." She gave him a teasing smile. "Oh! And before you ask...Vamps don't shine in the sun. In this world, vampires get burned with the sun."
"I was so NOT gonna bring that!" His cheeks got warm at her words and a nervous feeling surfaced in his stomach. "If I throw a dollar every time you pop a culture reference, you could turn rich."
"Oh, believe me! In a nutshell, all scary stories your friends used to tell on a campfire are true." She lightly taps his arm and faces the road once again.
At a late hour in deep darkness, a figure stood at the top of the spire of the roof of the library which was the tallest building of the Bakugou's territory. The mysterious man was Bakugou Katsuki, he was silently looking down at the territory with scrutinized eyes.
This has now become his routine, ever since that man left this world it has become very difficult to keep at bay the unwanted ones.
Demons.
Other creartures with low rank now think that they can do whetever the fuck they want since the bridge between life and death is gone, there's no one to reign all territories.
"Alpha." A man with spiky red hair turned up from behind him, his whole frame was stained with blood.
The werewolf used the word 'alpha' rather than his name, it is the position that Katsuki occupies among the pack. How much has he made to achieve this? The long waited desire came true four winters ago. His mother Bakugou Mitsuki decided that it was time for him to take the lead after risking everything.
"Kirishima." Katsuki looked at his beta, out of the corner of his eyes.
"We've captured them but some of them got away and they're reaching the borders." Kirishima paused to give Katsuki a cold look. "Although...the ones that got away, they hurt the little ones, so no rules applied this time."
"I'll take care of the rest, now go back." Katsuki growled in real anger now.
"Yes." Kirishima bowed his head before disappearing. "Be careful."
"No need."
Every fiber in Katsuki's body strained, he bent his knees down before jumping off and followed the fresh scent that those undead assholes left behind in the forest. There was no need to stransform, they were just minor vampires that wanted to make a ruckus in the borders.
The young alpha catched up with the runaway vampires easily enough within seconds. "Fucking found ya, shitholes." The three escapees quickly doled out shared looks, they made the briefest nod to each other before attacking him all at once. "Since you're attacking me first. No one can tell me that I violated the rules when it's in self defense, right?" He sneered and smiled cruelly.
He was playing with them and they knew that.
Katsuki would've gotten rid of them much faster but realized it was not worth it since they were not even a high ranking one like half and half bastard.
These were weaker.
He was slightly disappointed.
He kicked a vampire in the stomach with so much force it caused the enemy to fly away and crash against a tree. Katsuki slowly strode towards him with a dangerous glint in his crimson eyes, the look of despair on those extras made him smile so satisfyingly. Then, another vampire tried to attack him from his left and he calmly extended his arm towards him to grab his collar.
"So boring, won't you just die already." Katsuki gripped the vampire's collar tighter and pushed him against the ground, disgust evident in every word he spat out like it was a curse.
The vampire against the tree got out of his daze and used that opportunity to run away, leaving his comrades at the werewolf's mercy.
Oops!
"You call that a comrade?" Katuki pointed at the back of the other blood sucker in the distance, the vampire in his hand hissed at him but didn't answer. It seemed that the fleeing vampire was running towards the neutral zone. "Coward." Katsuki smiled twistedly before plunging his free hand straight through the vampire's chest and ripped his heart out, he then proceeded to follow his last victim.
When they reached the town, Izuku carefully came down from the broom and walked along with her, her guidance stopped when they reached a large building slightly secluded to the side. The surroundings were quiet and seemed uninhabited which made the boy wonder who would live in such conditions.
"Wait here." Ochako pushed him backwards until he sat down on one of the benches nearby. "Don't talk to strangers."
"There's no one-" Izuku said to the girl but she had long disappeared within seconds, then a bright light shined through the buildings in front of him which caught his attention. The boy doesn't know how he found the place, it was a strange feeling in his gut, almost a sentient throb that pulled him to that place. It was a place where horses replaced public transportation, many creatures were walking on the sidewalks. They varied from a simple witch with brooms on their hands or people with grotesque looking wings, fangs or people covered with bandages.
Izuku sat at the square of the town and observed his surroundings, he noticed that several people were gathered around a fountain. The large fountain was situated in the middle of the square, at the top of the fountain was a statue of a man wielding a scythe. It was a sculpture of an ordinary man, with a skeletal frame rather than the physic of a glorious god or a powerful creature.
"He is said to fulfil his task to guide the underworld."
The boy looked at the people around the fountain, everyone was making a face filled with admiration and hope. "Yagi Toshinori, the Grim Reaper." He read out loud the inscription at the bottom of the fountain then looked up again.
"I wish he would come back one day to get rid of the unwanted ones." Another voice said in the distance.
"Shut up! Do you wanna be next?"
"N-No…"
What happened here?
Izuku couldn't take his eyes off the mysterious man, the moonlight shone behind the stone figure and became startled when he got the strange impression that the lifeless man was looking at him. "...What the...?!" He straightened up and stepped backwards to get away from the statue until he heard a kid yelling at him.
"WATCH OUT!" A kid yelled at him and pointed at a man who was running in Izuku's direction but it was too late.
Izuku wasn't able to dodge or turn before the other man crashed against him, they rolled to the ground and thumped to the ground with force. He found himself on his back, a very sore one and then looked up to find a handsome blonde-haired young man growling at him from above. The other boy's hands had slapped the floor on each side of his head, he was obviously a werewolf considering the ears, tail and scary looking claws.
"WHAT THE FUCK?! YOU FUCKING FUCK!"
The werewolf was in a very bad mood, he'd followed the bastard who dared to run away while his comrades met his merciless claws and now this little creature got in his way.
"I'm sorry…it wasn't my intention!" Izuku tried to speak in a hushed tone, almost overly cautious, then he froze in place for a while when he met the stranger's sharp red eyes.
He thought those eyes were quite unique.
The blonde's whole body shook when the boy's green eyes grew in amazement, the words from the boy on the floor didn't touch his ears because those green eyes caught his attention.
"...It's…I'm so sorry Mr. wolf...Or should I say Mr. werewolf? Considering that you're half human...I'm kinda new here so I don't know very much…" Izuku's voice got quieter as he continued to ramble. "...But...considering the situation, wasn't it your fault as well? Since you crashed onto me."
The spell came down to shit when the motherfucker dared to put the blame on him as well when it was clearly not his fault. "THE FUCK YOU SAID?!" The werewolf's eyes darkened into a terrifying shade of black, his eyes gleamed vividly with madness which creeped out the other boy. He almost growled in satisfaction the moment he could see the boy's body cowering.
The creatures around them were stunned to silence at the boldness from the boy and frantic struggles to get himself free, they were frozen and no one dared to help the poor soul that managed to encounter the alpha on his first day here.
"Uhm…" Izuku turned his head away to avoid the penetrating gaze which stimulated the werewolf's sense of smell with his particular scent that came from his neck. "Mr wolf, I'm pretty sure that my flesh will not have a good taste...You'll have a stomach ache for centuries if you do! Please don't eat me!" He pleaded as he was getting more and more trapped in the other boy's much bigger body, and a strong metallic smell assaulted his nostrils. "Eeep!" He yelped when he found out that the other boy's hands were sticky with blood that hasn't dried yet.
The blonde's grip tightens and slowly brings his face down to the other boy's neck to inhale his scent deeply into his lungs.
"Bakugou Katsuki." A walking stick got between them along with the voice of a woman snapped the pair from their own reality. "This is a neutral zone."
Katsuki jerked back and his eyes went back to a normal shade of red, never taking his eyes off the boy and with a face of a languid predator looking at his prey. He clicked his tongue annoyed, he'd almost taken out his tongue to have a taste if not from the intrusive lady. Only when Izuku breathed weakly, he smiled pleased with himself and walked away.
Izuku looked up to find two unfamiliar faces that stood beside Ochako, one of them was an old woman with a walking stick and the other one was a young woman with long hair. His friend's usual cheerful face had pale complexion and out of breath.
"You're lucky boy." The little woman said as she watched the werewolf from the distance then changed her gaze towards Izuku. "If this weren't a neutral zone, you would've been dead by now."
"That has never stopped him before." Ochako whispered to herself.
"That alpha is pretty much one of the worst and powerful creatures if you get on his bad side, so just avoid him if you must." A young lady with dark green hair said. "Although I see it rather difficult if he has you already in his radar, ribbit."
"I think he got a good sniff of me." Izuku murmured and the others looked down at him with a wariness now but he didn't see it. He pushed himself to his elbows with an attempt of a reassuring smile, not sure if it was for himself or the girls. "Thank you, I don't believe I caught your names."
"I am Chiyo Shuzenji." The shorter lady of the threesome gives him a warm smile.
"We practically call her recovery girl cause she can cure anything with her powerful potions." Ochako points out.
"Asui Tsuyu and I'm a witch." The remaining girl with long hair walked over to him to give him a hand. "Call me tsuyu." She said in a tone that she wasn't up for any discussion.
"Alright, Tsuyu-chan." Izuku got on his feet, the werewolf's anger seemed to still envelop his entire body. However, pretending to be calm till the end, he straightened his back to face head on what's about to happen. "So, uhm...what now?"
"Come, child." Chiyo took the newbie's hand and they reached the same uninhabited building from before. "Sit." The moment she said that the building door shuddered and swung open.
"Eep!" Izuku didn't have time to think before he got pulled inside the building by the Chiyo's magic, the other young girls beamed excitedly as if it was the most common thing in the world. "At least give me a head start." Izuku mumbled as he found himself sitting on a chair in the middle of the room.
"And what's the fun in that?" Chiyo twirled a pendant finger and the whole room became alive, the curtains were pulled open to welcome the moonlight inside the place and all of the candles got turned on. The interior was the complete opposite from the outside, a big cauldron was at the center, several books of witchcraft floated in the air and a big desk was at the back. Eventually, she picked a book before starting to circle around him and did things like taking his tongue out or making him sniff strange stuff to which he decided not to ask such contents.
"...And what am I?" Izuku decided to break the silence.
Chiyo stared at him for a whole minute and closed the old book, puffing out a lot of dust. "A ghost!"
"...A ghost?"
"Yeah."
Izuku looked down and away in thought.
Chiyo noticed this so she grabbed him by the chin so he would look at her in the eyes. "The reason why we got here is not always clear but there is always a reason, you just have to find it."
"Look at the bright side! You get to do some cool stuff like flying, being invisible…" Ochako brightened up the mood.
"Don't forget that scary-ass ghostly scream over there." Tsuyu whistled.
"Gotta admit that I expected something more flashy." Izuku got on his feet and Ochako placed a hand over his shoulder to give a gentle squeeze, only to cringe away because of the blood in his clothes. "Forgot about that."
"Let's get you a pair of new clothes." Tsuyu wrinkled her nose and tapped Izuku's stained clothes. "You reek of blood and homicide."
"And a place to stay." Ochako said.
"Good idea." Izuku sniffed his left arm and made a disgusted face at the end. "Eugh!" He groused at his clothes before getting dragged towards a more livelier part of the town.
"Welcome to your new home!" Ochako stood in front of a building.
"You can stay with us all the time you need." Tsuyu's face was calm but her tone was rather warm. "Or forever. It doesn't matter really...but sometimes, people rather want a place of their own. It's your choice."
It was a three story structure, a little bit old but it was enough for Izuku to have a place to call home. The witches grabbed both of his arms and pulled his feet to his designated floor, after unlocking it with magic the boy was pushed inside the dark room. It was a simple room with a single bed, a pair of drawers at the sides and a bathroom attached to it.
"I hope you like it." Tsuyu parted the dusty and long curtains, revealing a big window which allowed the moonlight to illuminate the room. "It's not much but we've got this awesome view." She grinned as the boy plastered himself to the window to catch more view.
This place was at least ten minutes away from the borders and the deep forest that leads the others territory. It was nearly obscured by the surrounding wildlife if not because of the moonlight, but there was brief clearing between the trees that showed a breathtaking view of a tree-line that connected the forest and the neutral zone.
"You're kidding, right?" Izuku stood beside Tsuyu while his eyes roamed around the room and then back at the window. "I love it!" He gestured around the room.
"There are three other guys living with us, it's almost like a foster home." Ochako walked into the closet to open the drawers and picked out clothes. "You'll meet them tomorrow." She made the clothes float towards Izuku.
"Thank you, Tsuyu-chan. Ochako-chan." Izuku said tenderly, really appreciating the young witches all the more for their kindness and help.
"Well, have a good night." Tsuyu winked at Izuku and then took her leave, she had to grab her friend's arm to pull her outside the room to let the phantom rest.
"Tsuyu and I sleep on the other side of the corridor in case you need something!" Ochako finished shyly as she was being dragged away, waving a hand between his room and the other two rooms across the hallway.
"Night." Izuku said to them as he leaned against the doorframe and until they got inside their rooms he finally closed the door to be completely alone.
After getting changing clothes he couldn't help himself and walked towards the big window again to enjoy the view. The boy leaned against the window and within his line of sight, he could see someone at the distance. "Who's that?" Izuku muttered under his breath and titled his head to the side as he watched the mysterious man with narrowed eyes.
As though the man could sense he was being watched, he turned and locked eyes with Izuku. That's when he recognized those red eyes, his fingers got dry and cold, and the ghost boy quickly hid in a fit of a combination of surprise.
Katsuki couldn't help but smirk at the gesture, baring his intimidating canines and passed the tip of his tongue over his lips.
"Wait a damn minute. Why hide? That's what that sadistic werewolf wants." Izuku said and without feeling frightened, he carefully poked his head out to see through the window once again.
How gloriously and arrogant from him!
"Hope there are laws that are against crashing into someone else's home if not I'm fucked." Izuku whispered in the dark.
To his surprise, the werewolf was still there, he had his arms crossed over his chest while his whole frame was resting against a tree while his expression remained the same. The look Katsuki gave claimed the ghost boy, like taking some kind of ownership which made Izuku let out a shuddering breath and the glass to mist.
In spite of his fearsome aura, when the glass got cleared up Izuku mustered up the courage to meet the red eyes directly and fought his instincts that were obviously telling him to avoid that penetrating gaze.
All at once, Katsuki's eyes turned black, the darkness was crazier than before when Izuku showed fear at the square and it seemed far away from sanity.
Izuku's eyebrows are drawn low over his eyes and stepped back a little, he gave an awkward smile at the other man before shutting the curtain close. "What? What is it? The heck did I do?"
The ghost boy dragged himself to his bed and got inside the covers, giving one final glance at the window he finally closed his eyes.
His first night here passed just like that.
