Love The Way You Lie
Author's Note: Hey everyone and welcome back to Love The Way You Lie! So the ending of the last chapter (which was most likely confusing as hell but here we are) is going to be explained more here. I just wanted to do it okay xD Cool? Okay xD It has to do with two of the characters we've met before plus one with Kenzou just all around fucking shit up. But this takes place a month following the closure of the last chapter. This is the chapter I've been excited for. Also, chapter is split in two! This is part one! Anyway, on with the fic!
Additional Notes: Let see if you guys can figure out the easter eggs I've left planted in this chapter xD Someone already figured out Minato easily on my tumblr xD Minato is based off of Minato Namikaze from Naruto. He's one easter egg I've hidden within the confines of my fics. Also this chapter is going to be a slight crossover (mainly a character who has nothing to do with the other thing) because I can xD. Now the time travel people don't play relatively large roles other than assisting and trying to correct their own time.
Chapter Warnings: Graphic Child Birth (like IWITW, I'm doing line breaks for this if you don't want to read that, this will be done in multiple splits keep that in mind!), Slight Pregnancy Complications, Violence, Fighting, Near Death Experiences, mentions of Sexual Assault, etc.
Chapter Twenty Three: How To Save A Life (by The Fray) Part One
Chapter Summary: After a month of no activity from Kane, U.A. is attacked by a gang of villains lead by Kane. During the lockdown, Shouta finds out that he's in active labor with his unborn pup. Hizashi rushes to U.A. in hopes of helping the heroes. Meanwhile, three unknown faces show up at the battlefield under mysterious circumstances.
One month of complete silence. Hizashi was driving himself mad searching the streets and depths of the city and the surrounding cities trying to find even a trace of his father. The rescue team had hit every location that had been written down in that book of Kaede's so it was safe to assume that Kaede or Kenzou had it planned from the start as a backup in the case their operation ever got blown.
One month of searching and another month away from Shouta. From Hitoshi and Eri. From the unborn pup. His heartached that day he walked out of Shouta's home, not turning back as much as he wanted to. How badly he wanted to say something to any of them. He hadn't spoken to anyone when he had made his exit. His mind deadset on one goal. Even if it truly made him a villain in the end.
He had to stop his father.
Every part of him wanted to speak to his son that day but he couldn't bring himself to face him. After all the pain that he had caused. He could of taken the change and spoken to him. In the end, Hizashi had decided not to. Allowing his son to see him, only for him to leave again and not return until his mission was complete... he couldn't do that to him. Even if it was selfish of him to not speak with him.
His mind often ventured to Hitoshi. Wondering what could possibly be going through his son's head. He hadn't seen his son physically since the day he aligned with the League. The absolute heartbreak that had been written on Hitoshi's features. His precious son. Hizashi would do anything to protect him but in the end, it had been his fault his son was even hurt in the first place. He just hoped that Hitoshi was stronger than he ever was. To not give in to the darkness that would probably be clouding his son's mind. He remembered the countless days that Hitoshi came home from school with his spirit completely crushed. He was called a villain constantly in school for his quirk. Both him and Shouta had done everything to prove him wrong, even though at the time it had been Hizashi's greatest accomplishment. Before he had found out that everything had been a lie. That he wasn't bound to the bastards who shared his blood. 3
Before he could speak to his son, he had to prove that he was the hero he knew he could be. To be the father that his son could look at and be proud of.
So much had happened in the months that Hizashi was away from U.A. Secrets within his own family had been brought to light. Dabi was Touya Todoroki. Shouto Todoroki had been kidnapped. He had a daughter he didn't know about. Hawks lost his wings and wasn't the Alpha that the Hero Commission made him out to be. So much has happened. Hizashi wondered if he never did make the public display against U.A. if any of these truths would of came to light. It was almost like a butterfly effect that he couldn't stop. Showing who the true heroes and true villains were within society.
No matter what, Hizashi had to move quickly. It was quickly closing in on Shouta's due date and within the confinements of the book had revealed that Kenzou intended to attack U.A. when Shouta was vulnerable. He had to try and find Kenzou and Kaede before that day came or he feared the worst would happen. Everything already felt so off balance as it was. Like things were changing from out beneath them. From what he could tell, Kaede was the true mastermind behind everything. Which quickly had turned into an obsession with his father.
One thing that had stuck out to him was hearing Hawks' words to Tokoyami. Hawks never knew he had been born an Omega. Which would of meant that information had been top secret at the Hero Commission. This went deeper than he could ever of imagined. It went further than just the villains. All for One. The League. It was clear to him that somehow the Hero Commission was involved. At least one person. There could be no way that Kenzou would have confidential information on Hawks.
He thanked every part of himself that he had self-control over himself and his Alpha. Hawks' true scent had been intoxicating. He had felt the protectiveness that surged through him. He hadn't heard from Hawks since that day but who could blame him? Hawks' entire world had came crashing around him. Finding out that the people who raised him had lied to him. Losing his wings. Almost getting assaulted. Hawks needed to focus on recovery. Hizashi was positive that Hawks' mind set wouldn't be anywhere near what happened with Todoroki. However, Hawks was safe behind U.A's barrier. Probably getting fretted over by Shouta. Shouta was a magnet for fixing people even if he didn't mean to.
Hizashi sighed as he leaned against the wall on the roof of the building. His eyes lingering over U.A. The building glittering in the night sky and the lights of the dorms still on.
October 7th. That's what today's date was. Shouta was officially nine months along in his pregnancy. He sighed again, looking up at the night sky for the moment. "What I would do to be back with you."
An explosion caught his attention, his entire body going rigid as he looked in the direction of where it came from. His eyes widening as smoked filled the air. U.A.
"Damnit." Hizashi growled, rushing towards the edge of the building and jumping down before taking off in the direction of the explosion.
It seems like he found his father.

Shouta took in a few deep breaths as he ran his hand over his swollen stomach. He had officially gone on leave the day before and Hawks had gladly taken over his class for him after gaining a teacher's license. Currently he sat in Heights Alliance, he gang of chaotic pups sprawled out through the room. Hitoshi, Shoto, Midoriya, and Eri were a big cuddle pile in the middle of them. The rest of the students on bean bag chairs or piles of pillows and blankets. A movie was playing in the background but not one person was listening or watching it.
Hawks and Dabi sat next to him on the couch. Dabi playing mindlessly on his phone and Hawks leaning back against him, running his fingers through Tokoyami's head feathers. Shouta eyed Hawks for a moment, watching the young man's movements. His movements were slow. A few weeks prior, Hawks had came to him about arranging a surgery to remove the useless bones on his back. Following a month after the attack against him and no feathers had yet to grow back, Hawks had made the decision to get the bones to his wings removed from his back. Shouta could see the bandages peeking out from underneath his shirt. His slow movements fell right in place with the pain that would of been in the former hero's back.
Hawks had been a good addition to U.A. While it wasn't permanent, Hawks' presence had done a lot for his students. Someone who was so upbeat and happy helped with the lingering darkness that clouded over the kids. Tokoyami even constantly had a smile on his face now. Though Shouta could see just how worried his student was for his mentor. Hawks wouldn't say it but Shouta would see Hawks mindlessly looking at the sky and the passing birds. He was positive that Hawks missed flying. Who wouldn't if your quirk and life had been surrounded by the sky and the care free lifestyle of flight?
Shouta turned his gaze from Hawks to Dabi. Dabi had been the most surprising within the last month. Following the discovery of Minato, Dabi had also approached Shouta. Dabi had wanted to remove his womb completely. Shouta made him take a week to make an official decision. In the end, Dabi still wanted to do it. Despite being a grown adult, Omegas were often required to have someone with them for the surgery just to make sure that is definitely what they wanted. Shouta hated the rule but he went along with it. Dabi had gone through with his own surgery but kept the main reasoning to himself. Dabi no longer radiated Omega phermones but rather closer to Beta phermones now. He still held his demeanor towards Shoto and the other students but was more neutral to his dynamic more than anything now.
More than ever, he found his students and his wards swarming him constantly. It had gotten worse in the last week. Not one of them wanting him to be out of their line of sight longer than when they were asleep. His body was producing maternal pheromones in waves and he could see how his students were reacting to it. If he had the choice, he would be in his home but every single one of these pups with Hawks and Dabi included would find their way to his place. It was just better to stay at Heights Alliance with them.
The night that Hawks had ended up at U.A., Shouta had found Hitoshi and Eri fast asleep on the ground outside of Heights Alliance. It had taken a lot of convincing but he had finally gotten Hitoshi to tell him what it was about. His pup had been feeling the burden of carrying his emotions like a mask. His heart broke watching Hitoshi break down. He had failed to be there for his son, no matter how many times Hitoshi tried to tell him that it wasn't his fault for not noticing. He should have noticed what was going on. Now Hitoshi laid on the floor, talking with Midoriya with a smile on his face. Hitoshi had decided to see Dr. Shinsou for a few session which seemed to help a lot with his mentality.
Shouta sighed, continuing to rub circles into his lower stomach. The constant pressure on his abdomen had him taking deep breaths. He felt his eyes slipping shut, the comforting scents lingering in the air and their hushed voices as they talked to themselves.
He nearly jumped out of his skin as the building shook around them, the sound of breaking concrete and blinding light showing through the windows as each of them jumped up into an offensive stance.
"Bakugou!" Kaminari shouted.
"That wasn't me, loser." Bakugou retorted.
"Level Three Security Breach! Level Three Security Breach!" Announced through the speakers that were set up within the dorms.
"What's happening?!" Ashido exclaimed as the ground continued to shake for a moment. The windows around them quickly closed with defensive shutters, the doors blocking off from both sides as the announcment continued.
Shouta froze completely as the rumbling stopped but followed closely behind by another smaller explosion. He turned his head to look at Hawks and Dabi who were both looking back at him. Hitoshi and Shoto were also giving him nervous glances. The Erasure hero swallowed the lump in his throat and turned completely to face his class. Grimacing for a moment as pain rippled through his abdomen. He sucked in a deep breath as he finally addressed his students, "When Hawks arrived at U.A., he brought with him a book containing vital information to a case. It was believed that Kenzou Yamada, the villain Kane would attack the school." He paused, watching the knowing looks on the kids' faces all except for Eri. "That's why you saw pro heroes on campus earlier today. They came to guard the school. This isn't going to be a drill. So everyone is to stay next to someone at all times. Pair up, bigger groups the better. Right now we are safe in this building but we can't guarantee that Kane might not be able to get in. We've spent months preparing for situations like this. We've been through it. Now it's time to put that training to the test."
With an agreement from his students, Shouta took in another deep breath as the pain continued through him. "Aizawa-sensei? Are you okay?" Kirishima questioned, being the first to notice the pained expression on the man's face.
Shouta bit his lip but nodded. "I'm alright, Kirishima. We need to prepare. We might not have long."
"You're wincing, sir." Iida added, stepping forward with a worried expression on his face.
"Dad?" Hitoshi questioned.
Hawks' eyes widened as his mouth dropped open. "Um... Eraser, I think you're in labor." The blonde stated.
Shouta huffed. "No, I'm not."
Dabi chuckled, gaining everyone's attention. "Tell that to my shoes."
Shouta looked down, cursing slightly noticing the very noticible pool of water that was slightly pink on the floor surrounding his shoes, Dabi's, and Hawks. How he didn't notice that it happened, he would never know.
He grunted as another contraction ripped through his body, placing his hand on the side of his stomach. "Freaking problem child." He muttered.
"C'mon, sensei. Let us help you." Yaoyorozu coaxed as she stepped forward. She was joined by Jirou and Kaminari. Shoto and Hitoshi also stepped forward.
Shouta eyed them for a second before finally nodding. His pup was coming either way.
"Alright, you five with me. Hitoshi and Midoriya can assist with getting supplies. To keep his privacy, the others will continue to prepare in case of the villains outside." Yaoyorozu instructed.
"Go." Dabi said, ushering them away from the couch. Shouta grumbled as Yaoyorozu and Shoto guided him towards the nearby table.

Minato, Koyuki, and the boy collapsed to the ground in a mass of tangled limbs and heavy breathing as the world changed around them. The Hero Commission long gone but instead they were on the practice field of U.A. "You're getting better, Yuki. You managed to get the location this time!" Minato grinned, giving a thumbs up through his over huffs.
"Seriously?! That's what you say when our present time is at risk cause some hyped up asshole Alpha can't keep it in his pants?!" The boy exclaimed, sitting up for a moment before pushing himself off of the ground and dusting off his long black jacket.
"Shut the fuck up." Minato replied, the grin never leaving his face.
"Boys, behave or I will ground you both." Koyuki said as she got off the ground herself and dusted off her shirt and pants. "It would be best if we didn't say our real names and instead used our hero names. Our hero names are unknown but myself and Minato are already known right now. If we come in contact with someone we know, we might accidentally to more damage."
The boy cast her a look equilvant to the one she would often see on Eraserhead. "That's going to be impossible with the mission we have. This place will be crawling with pro heroes and the people we know as pros. Hell, my teacher is still a student here!" The boy stated.
Koyuki sighed. "We just have to do our best. It might inevitable but we are just here to make sure the timeline corrects itself, nothing more. Kane has to be defeated tonight." She said.
Minato finally got off of the ground himself and dusted off his own hero costume. "He doesn't have a license though."
"Does that really matter right now?!" The boy exclaimed, grimacing as pain once again ripped through him. "We are running out of time. The attack has already started, we need to go. Not debate the stupid laws. You two head to the battlefield. I have to make a stop first."
Minato smiled and nodded. "Well, let's go, Chronos... Kirito."
The boy-Kirito smiled back. "C'mon, Blueflame."
With a final nod, the three started in the direction the fighting was taking place.

Hizashi had to force his lungs to fill with oxygen as he finally got to U.A's barrier... well what was left of the barrier. Almost the entire front of the barrier was nothing but rumble now, pieces of concrete all over the place on the ground. He took a deep breath as he climbed over the mountain of concrete and stopped as his eyes settled on the mass chaos.
So they did take my warning. He thought. Endeavor, Midnight, the U.A. faculty, Edgeshot, Miruko, and the Pussycats were already fighting. Each of them being surrounded in at least a minimum of three opponents. Hizashi looked around, trying to catch a glimpse of his father or grandmother but not catching sight of either of them. He cursed under his breath as he started down the rubble. His eyes fell to where Midnight was. The woman was pinned to the ground by one of the villains as they were closing in on her.
He felt the anger flare in him as he activated his quirk and screamed out. The villains' immediately slapped their hands over their ears in pain before Hizashi stopped his quirk and kicked the villain pinning his friend down off of her.
"Yamada..." Midnight muttered, her eyes wide as Hizashi helped her off of the ground.
"Quick, knock these bastards out." Hizashi instructed. Midnight nodded, taking those few vital seconds that Hizashi had given her to rip the fabric on her bicep and release her quirk. Hizashi was quick to clamp a hand over his nose and mouth to keep the mixture from himself as the villains got a full whiff and fell to the ground unconscious. Midnight gave a quick sigh of relief before she looked over to where Hizashi was standing. "You didn't think I would let you guys finish this alone did you?"
Midnight snorted, a large smile breaking out onto her face. "I haven't spotted Kane or his mother yet. They have to be the ones leading this attack but I haven't seen them." She stated.
Hizashi nodded. "They are probably keeping down low or going after Shouta and Todoroki. Leaving their goons to distract the heroes." He replied.
Midnight made a noise of agreement. "Class A are stuck in Heights Alliance, from what I know Shouta is there too. Its the same with Class B but Vlad is out here with us." She said, keeping her guard up and peering over her shoulder every other second. "They should be safe for now but with how easy they got into U.A., it wouldn't be a problem for them to get into the dorms."
Hizashi nodded. "I'll head to the dorms. Are you okay here?"
Midnight sighed softly. "Of course. Now that I'm back up, it will be easier to knock more of these guys out. Go. I know Shouta's due anytime now."
"Be careful, Kayama." Hizashi said, starting off towards the direction of Heights Alliance barely catching Midnight hollering the same thing back to him.

Shouta bit his lip, forcing back a pained whine as another contraction ripped through his abdomen. He could barely hear Yaoyorozu coaxing him through his own thoughts of keeping his breathing level. Shoto and Hitoshi were on either side of him with his legs propped up, his lower regions covered by a sheet that Midoriya had brought over. A makeshift room of sheets were made around the area, trying to give Shouta some privacy from his students but at this point he could careless. He at least was able to keep an eye on all of them.
Shoto, Hitoshi, Yaoyorozu, Jirou, Kaminari, Hawks, and Midoriya were in the makeshift room with him. Hawks and Yaoyorozu working together at Shouta's feet. Jirou using her earphone jack to keep track of his unborn pup's heartbeat. Midoriya stood on stand by just in case he was needed. Kaminari also standing by. Shoto and Hitoshi were assisting him. On the outside of the sheet room stood all of his students, standing on guard and ready for a moment's notice.
xx (Descriptions of Child Birth ahead, skip to the next line break if this makes you uncomfortable) xx
He tried to ignore the uncomfortable feeling of Hawks measuring him and Yaoyorozu whispering to their interium homeroom teacher. His eyes widened as he caught Yaoyorozu whisper, "Is there supposed to be blood?"
His heart skipped a beat as his mind ventured to the worst possible scenarios that could happen in this situation. Hitoshi caught on quickly and reached over and started running his fingers through Shouta's sweat damp hair. "It's okay, dad. The pup is going to be fine."
"It's just a little bit of blood. That would explain why his water was a pinkish color. This happens. Now if it gets worse, that's when we run into problems." Hawks stated, moving his hand away from Shouta. "Almost there, Eraser. Hang on tight for me."
"Don't really have a choice." Shouta retorted, letting out another gasp of pain with the next contraction.
Yaoyorozu stood back up to her full height, looking around at the objects around her before she stopped. "I completely forgot. We need water to clean off the pup. Hitoshi, Midoriya, can you go get some for me?" She questioned.
Hitoshi looked to his Omega father for a moment and gave him a smile. "I'll be right back." He muttered, not moving until Kaminari slipped in and took his face before disappearing alongside Midoriya.
"Just one more centimeter and then it's time to push." Hawks announced with a slight smile.
Shouta nodded, leaning back against the pillows that were taken from the couch. God he wished this was over already.
xx (line break, end of scene for now) xx
Hitoshi and Midoriya walked towards the bathroom in almost a dead silence. Midoriya carrying a bowl that he had grabbed from Yaoyorozu before heading in this direction. The two entered into the bathroom, Midoriya placing the bowl underneath the tap and starting the water on lukewarm.
He sighed, turning to face Hitoshi for a moment before froze completely as he saw the glint of metal pressing against Hitoshi's neck and a tall blonde male that resembled Mic with green eyes standing behind him with a sinister grin. "Hello, boys. Sorry for this but I have Omegas to get."
"Mido-"
Midoriya's eyes widened as he saw a knife come in contact with Kenzou's neck. He moved his gaze to the hand that held onto it. A fingerless gloved small hand, couldn't be bigger than a teenager's, held the black handle. The arm the hand was connected to was concealed by the sleeve of a black jacket. His gaze moved until finally it settled on the person's face. He couldn't be older than any of them. His face young and unmarked.
What got Midoriya the most was his eyes. His eyes were the same shade as Aizawa's. Like dark storm clouds in a thunderstorm but almost black as night. His hair was close to Todoroki's in the same style but a shiny ebony black. Even his scent that he hadn't noticed before was familiar. Cherry blossoms and spearmint.
"Try it and I'll slice your throat before you can blink." The boy growled.
Kenzou smirked. "You won't be fast enough to save him."
"I don't need to be." The boy said, his eyes meeting Midoriya's. Passing along an unknown message that Midoriya quickly understood. The boy was giving him an opening.
The only problem. Kenzou was staring straight at him. He couldn't even activate One for All without risking Kenzou moving his hand and slicing Hitoshi's throat.
"Can you imagine? What would happen? If we could have any dream. I'd wish this moment, was ours to own it, and that it would never leave." Midoriya's eyes widened as he heard the boy start to sing. It took him by complete surprise as he watched Kenzou's shoulders go slack and an unknown look came to his eye. Kenzou finally tore his gaze and looked at the boy as he continued to sing.
It has to be that boy's quirk. No way Kane would take his eye off of me when I'm a threat. Midoriya thought. He took that split second to activate One for All and launched himself at Hitoshi and Kenzou. The boy moved with him, knocking the hand that Kenzou held the blade in out of the way before it could get to Hitoshi's neck. Midoriya wrapped his arms around Hitoshi and pulled him away from Kenzou as the boy wrestled the knife out of the Alpha's hand.
Kenzou growled as he pushed himself up, placing his hands on either side of the boy's head. The same thing he used on Shoto.. Midoriya jumped forward, landing a punch to Kenzou's jaw which sent him through the nearby wall. "Go! I'll lead him away!" Midoriya instructed, running out of the bathroom and into the direction he sent Kenzou. He stopped short when he noticed that Kenzou was gone. If Kenzou had gone to the direction of the common room, he would of seen him pass by. He must of retreated.
Hitoshi and the boy were behind him a moment later. "Seems about right with that snake." The boy muttered.
"Who are you?" Hitoshi questioned, his voice calucating and defensive. "But I suppose I should be thanking you for saving my ass back there, but how do I know that you aren't working for that bastard?"
The boy smiled at them. One that would rival one of Mic's grins. "I can assure you that I'm an ally. Unfortunately I can't give you full details... for reasons but I'm Kirito." The boy-Kirito stated.
Hitoshi eyed him for a moment, taking a few steps back to grab the overflowed bowl of water and dumping out part of the bowl. Turning off the tap, he pulled the bowl from the sink. "I still don't trust you. What person says they are an ally but we don't know who they are. You look like a kid."
Kirito shrugged. "Cause I'm fourteen. I just started high school." He replied. He stopped, pulling his phone from his pocket. "It's after midnight now. You guys should probably get back. I'm going back out to assist the pros."
Midoriya moved to stop him but Kirito disappeared down the hallway heading in the direction he was sure Kenzou went in. "Who is that kid?" He whispered.
"I don't know but he seemed like he was truthful. Either way, he just saved my life." Hitoshi said. "Lets get back. Dad should be getting close now."
Midoriya nodded, tearing his gaze from where Kirito disappeared. "Did he seem like Aizawa-sensei and Mic-sensei to you?" He questioned as they started back towards where the others were. Their guards still up as they moved along.
"Yeah... I thought it was dad at first until he spoke. Which is stupid cause Dad is currently in labor on our dining table." Hitoshi muttered.
They both froze as they heard a loud scream ring out throughout the room. Hitoshi's eyes widened as him as Midoriya shared looks. "That was Aizawa-sensei."
Midoriya took off into a run as Hitoshi followed behind him, careful not to spill the water in the bowl as they rounded the corner. It only took them a moment to get to the blocked off area.
xx (line break, child birth scene continues here) xx
Shouta had his wrist in his mouth, biting on the pale skin as his back arched off of the table. "Dad?!" Hitoshi exclaimed.
"I think his placenta might be trying to detact from the uterine wall. We need to work fast or we will have to cut out the pup." Hawks stated.
Blood was starting to pool on the table inbetween Shouta's legs as Hawks set himself up between his legs. "Here, let me take that. Hitoshi, go stand by him." Yaoyorozu ushered. Hitoshi didn't think twice as he handed her the bowl and rushed to his father's side. Eri had came through the curtain and was now standing by Shoto. The girl having been originally by Dabi until now.
"Is he okay?" Eri questioned.
"Yeah, but we have to move fast." Hawks stated. "Jirou keep an eye on the pup's heartbeat."
Jirou nodded. "Right now, holding stable. It dropped a little a moment ago but otherwise still in safe range." She replied.
Hawks hummed. "Alright, Eraser... when the next contraction hits, push for ten counts." He instructed.
Hitoshi grabbed one of Shouta's hands and Eri copied his movements, going to Shouta's other side and grabbing his other hand. Shouta forced himself to take a deep breath as the next contraction ripped through him. He bit his lip as he pushed down. Yaoyorozu counted down and when she hit ten, Shouta stopped. He felt like he could breath again as he fell back against the pillows. His body growing weaker by the moment. A moment later, the cycle restarted.
Contraction. Push. Ten. Repeat.
"The pup's almost out! One last push, Eraser!"
Shouta wasn't sure how long he had been at it. He could hear Hitoshi, Shoto, and Eri talking to him but he couldn't make out the words. It was the same with Hawks and Yaoyorozu. He knew they were talking but the words never registered to him. The world around him swam as the next contraction hit. He couldn't hold back the scream that left him as he started to push, feeling the movement of the pup slipping from his body.
xx (end of birth scene) xx
A loud cry followed as suddenly a bloody, small body was placed on his chest. He felt like the world stopped for a moment as his eyes fell onto a mop of black hair and the scrunched up face of the crying pup. "It's a boy, Eraser." Hawks muttered. Yaoyorozu was now next to him with a wet rag, working on cleaning off the baby. Also using a nasal pump to clear the pups nose and mouth.
"Kazuto..." Shouta whispered. A smile came to his face as the world turned dark around him.
x
Hawks cursed as Shouta went completely limp on the table. The pup no longer crying as Yaoyorozu scooped him up and wrapped a towel around his body. Moving over to the table where the baby supplies were all set up. "Jirou, check Eraser's heart. Now!" He exclaimed.
"What's happening to him?!" Hitoshi exclaimed, the fear in his voice as he clutched his father's hand.
Hawks didn't reply to him just yet as Jirou placed her earphone jacks onto Shouta. One over his heart and the other on his upper chest. Tears came to the girl's eyes as she looked to Hawks. "I can't hear anything."
Hitoshi's panicked words continued as Hawks placed his fingers against the pulse point of Shouta's neck. "Damnit!" He yelled in frustration. He couldn't find a pulse either. He placed one palm over Shouta's heart, the other hand over the other one with his fingers folded over his open hand. Quickly he started to push down at the rate of a normal heartbeat. "We need Recovery Girl. He might of hemoragged."
Yaoyorozu walked around the table, handing the pup off to Hitoshi, and a breathing bag in her hand as she motioned for Shoto. "I'm going to clean him up, every time you breath, squeeze this." She instructed before moving back to the other side of the table.
Midoriya slid past them, throwing open the sheet and his eyes falling on Iida. "Iida! Run and go get Recovery Girl!" Midoriya yelled.
Iida nodded as his eyes fell on Hawks and Shouta. "I'll go with you." Bakugou stated.
"So will I." Midoriya added.
"Be careful, you three! Recovery Girl might be close to the fighting to assist the pros! Try not to get into an altercation if you. Just get her and come back. Shouta will kill me if something happened to you." Hawks instructed as he continued the chest compressions.
Bakugou aimed his hands at the wall, preparing to explode his way out. "Kaachan! I have a better idea! We could risk the building collapsing here!" Midoriya said, ushering for the two to follow him.
"Don't tell me what to do!" Bakugou growled but complied.
Hawks took in a deep breath as the three disappeared. Hoping to any one who would listen that they would come back safe and sound. He stopped his compressions, moving and opening Shouta's mouth. Puffing a few breaths of air, he pulled away and continued with the compressions. "You can't do this, Aizawa-san."
His mind raced with the possibilities. Yaoyorozu was checking for anymore bleeding now that the pup was clothed and quieted down. The pup now safe in Hitoshi's arms. While Hawks worked, she cleaned up his body of the afterbirth and blood before Kaminari helped with getting his undergarments and sweats back on.
"What if Kaminari shocks him?" Shoto questioned, still working the breathing bag at the same time in the correct intervules.
Hawks stopped for a moment. Blinking in realization. Shouta currently had no heartbeat or pulse. Normally a hospital would be calling a Code Blue and using a crash cart on the person. A smile broke out on his face as he turned to Shoto. "You brillant child!" He peered over his shoulder to Kaminari who was staring directly at Shouta with wide eyes and a dropped jaw.
"I... can't... what if I make him worse?" Kaminari muttered.
"Kaminari, you can do this! You've proven yourself time and time again." Jirou stated. Kaminari looked to her as Jirou continued her words of encouragement. "You're a hero, Kaminari. Aizawa-sensei saved us, now it's our turn to help him."
Yaoyorozu moved forward, grabbing Kaminari by the hands and moving towards Shouta. Placing on hand over Shouta's heart and the other on his side as Hawks pulled away. "You have to be careful. Don't overdue it. Start out with two hundred joules, okay." She muttered.
Kaminari nodded, sucking in a deep breath. "You can do this, Denki. Shouta would say the same thing if it wasn't him on this table." Hawks said.
"Yes, sir."
He took another deep breath, feeling the tingling sensation in his palms. "Sorry, Aizawa-sensei." He muttered. "CLEAR!" He shouted. Instantly Hawks, Eri, and Yaoyorozu pulled their hands away. Shoto pulled the breathing bag away with him. With the quick shock, Shouta's body convulsed off of the table before falling back down. Shoto immediately moved back to use the bag as Jirou checked for Shouta's heart beat and Hawks for a pulse.
Hawks shook his head. "Again."
Kaminari forced himself to level his breathing as he copied the same position his hands had been in before and the same amount of volts. "Alright... CLEAR!" Another shock followed as Jirou and Hawks repeated their own motions.
"I have a heartbeat." Jirou cried out.
Hawks sighed in relief as he felt the steady pulse now under his fingertips. "Pulse is strong."
