Alone, cold, covered in mud and in a forest known to be home of many monsters. You think that would be the end of your story, but it wasn't. In fact, I think it was the first chapter in my story, especially when I met him.

His red eyes just staring down at me. I couldn't tell if he was a monster or a human. He looked like a human, but honestly what human has red eyes. Where I came from, it was always blue, green, brown and grey eyes. I didn't know humans had red eyes until I saw him.

"Fresh meat?" He asked me. I stared at him for a few seconds, admiring his appearance. He was the same age as me, 8 years old. He wore pants made blue silks, gold chains around his waist, and multiple chains over his chest. Forming some sort of top of riches. But the thing that got to me the most was the small creatures that hanged from the chains of his waist and top.

They…they were dragons…

"Dragons?" I asked as I point to the creatures on his body. One of them, with black scale and purple wings, hissed at me. Causing me to remove my hand from pointing at him. Another dragon, that laid on his head, extended its wings as it roars at me. I think these dragons were protecting the boy by trying to scare me. But why were they on him? And why were they so small? I read once that dragons can be bigger than a mountain. Were these babies?

"Your not a monster, you're a human." The boy spoke. He thought I was a monster? He had red eyes, he looks more like a monster than me!

"Um..." I spoke. I didn't really know what to say.

"What are you doing in the forest? Don't you know meta-creatures roam here at their free will?" He asked as a smirk form on his face. "Looking for fresh meat, preferably someone who's young as you. They would cut you up into so many pieces, eat the meat off your bones."

"I know," I responded slowly. "I was running away…"

"From what? Your dignity or your balls?" He asked.

"From the monster who destroyed my village," I informed him. His red eyes stare down at me, practically staring holes into me before looking down the path I ran from. Something wasn't right, why did he have dragons? And why was he in the forest?

"That smoke…" he spoke. He then looks up, staring at the smoke that clouded the sunset light from reaching down into the forest. "That was the O.F.A village huh?"

"Yes…" I answered.

"What a shame." He says before looking back down at me. Seeing my scared frame sitting in the mud. As the sun disappears behind the horizon, the forest lavish green colors soon begin to turn black. The night was coming, that was the worst time to be in the forest.

"We must go home." The boy spoke. One of the dragons on him opens its mouth. Creating a light hissing sound before removing itself. Watching it flap its wings was amazing, it looked like a lizard bird flying into the sky.

The boy then looks down at me with those red orbs.

"If I was you, I would find a hole to sleep in."

"What?"

"The monsters are coming. I have to go, good luck."

"No, wait!" I shouted standing up to my feet in haste. Running to him, I grabbed one of his chains by the waist to stop him from walking another step. Only to be burned seconds later by one of his dragons. This causes me to fall down to the ground again, only this time I fell on a rock. The boy looks down at me, no sympathy at all.

"I can't take you with me. I can't afford those monster to be around my home."

"But you have dragons, I don't have anything to protect myself! I don't even have a home!"

"Not my problem." He tells me. I felt so hurt, to know that someone as helpless as I could be left for dead without a thought. It hurt me…it hurt me bad. So many emotions came over me, regret, sadness, anger…all of them. They all came over me.

I felt death hanging over me. I felt it so close that my heart wouldn't stop beating against my chest…I was going to die. There was no way I could survive this forest, and I had no place to go! I was going to die, I was going to join my family in the next life…I was going to die.

"I can't believe I am about to do this."

He spoke, causing me to look up to him. Raising his hand at me, he grabs the left side of my collar and pulls me up to my feet. He then walks over to the nearest tree. Grabbing a branch with his hand, a small explosion made the branch break off.

Did he do that?

"Oi! Deku!" He spoke…what's a Deku?

"Me?"

"Yes you, Deku! Move it, we have a long way to go and not enough time left before the freaks come out to play!" He tells me before placing his hand on the end of the tree trunk. Another explosion went off, this time I was certain it came from him! Soon, the end was on fire, creating a torch that produces an orb of light around us.

"Okay…" I responded. He turns around, giving me his back as he proceeds to walk into the forest. The opposite way I came from…

Looking over my shoulder, I could still see a small glint of fire from far away. The flames of my burning home still raging on. I knew then, that it was time to say goodbye.

"Goodbye, mom."

I whispered before looking at the boy, who was already many feet away. Quickly, I jumped into running, chasing after him through the dark woods.

"My god…your so weak."

…

It was a long walk, one I still remembered to this day. We passed many trees, animals, rivers and even meta-creatures that have lost their small bit of humanity. It was a horrifying sight, ones I never want to recall of again.

It was dead night, the sounds of bugs buzzing, animals sounds and wind blowing catch my ears. It was becoming cold, but not cold enough to make me run. I didn't know where we were going. Every time I opened my mouth to talk, one of his dragons would hiss at me. They weren't nice creatures, and it was best not to upset them.

After a long walk, we finally came to a stop. Looking up from the ground, I saw the lights. There were lights on the ground leading to someplace. In a straight line.

"What is this?" I asked. Finally being able to speak without hearing the dragon hiss at me. The boy walks over to me, handing me the branch with fire. I take the branch in my hand, once my grip held it tight, I saw him removing a chain from his neck. Well, three chains to be exact. Each one having some sort of ruby or diamond attached to them.

"Here." He spoke as he forcefully shoves them into my pockets. He didn't seem to give a care about my personal space.

"Why?" I asked.

"Follow the lights, it will lead you to a special village. One made from ice and fire infused into one."

"That's possible?" I asked.

"Apparently." He responded.

"But-The chains I gave you are worth a lot. So use them wisely, and don't get kidnapped." He tells me, cutting me off before walking towards me. He then walks past me, not giving me a second glance. He was leaving me, only this time in a good place. I was so happy, I wanted to say thank you…but I didn't. I couldn't at the time, instead I asked something else.

"What's your name?" I asked. It was funny, we walked so far but I didn't ask his name till now. Stopping in his tracks, he looks over his shoulder to say:

"Katsuki Bakugou." He tells me. A second later, his dragons roared. They sounded like puppies when they did, it was sort of funny at the time.

"Katsuki…" I spoke. Humming his name a little in my mouth. Imprinting it into my skull as I did this. Closing my eyes, I lowered my head down a bit to write his face into the inner parts of my heart. For someone who came off to be very mean, he did me a very good deed.

"Kacchan…Thank…" I spoke as I looked up, only to see he was gone. I didn't even notice him leave…I wonder what sort of boy he was.
