"They say female Alphas are way more aggressive when territory is trespassed on, but I don't think I've ever seen male Alphas react this way. " Takeda gestured to a tall Ace holding a Libero in his arms scenting and murmuring everything will be alright, that Suga will be fine.
Daichi had to be held back and after the pheromones cleared he'd sank to his knees shaking. Would people call them weak?
Takeda wondered to himself, Ukai was smoking a cigarette next to him, they were outside but still on school property. Takeda didn't have the heart to reprimand him he was looking shook up. "I'm not cut out for this shit." He mumbled Takeda rolled his eyes. "You did just fine. Coach Ukai would be very proud, proud of all of you. We have a great bunch of kids, a bit violent when it comes to the pack, but sweet. Wish I had these kinds of friends when I was in school-"
"Oh god! Takeda! Are you alright!?" The female volleyball coach growled in Ukai's direction, this had the already edgy Ukai dropping his cigarette and reaching to pull Takeda back towards him, where Asahi and Daichi were standing growling in warning beside Ukai ready to pounce.
Takeda opened his mouth to say something but Yachi's scream pierced the air "HELP! HELP! SHIMIZU-SENPAI IS GOING TO KILL HER!" The blond Omega was breathless she didn't notice the tension between the team Alpha's and the volleyball coach for the girls team.
"Yachi-chan?" Takeda frowned he kneeled so he was at her level she was panting and visibly upset.
"Shimizu! Michimiya! Shimizu-senpai! She's beating her up. There's blood and-"
"Where?" The Alpha coaches both demanded, Yachi pointed behind her, "Near the entrance to the girls gym. Hurry!"
Both coaches ran off Takeda held a sobbing Yachi, he looked over at the boys behind him, Daichi had sank to his knees and was sitting cross legged, "I'm going to the hospital to see Suga." He mumbled.
"I need to get Noya home." Neither one cared to intervene and both had faith that their manager could hold her own. Both alpha males secretly glad the finally culprit had been caught.
"I hope they can stop Shimizu-senpai. What if she gets hurt! Or kills that alpha. " Yachi whispered, "I've never seen her so angry. I followed her after that mean girl bolted no one chased that alpha, but Kiyoko was fast she ran after that girl. She tackled her and wouldn't stop hitting her, I didn't understand right away, but she could smell Suga's scent, his fear it's stronger here but it was all over that Alpha. " Yachi felt sick she was holding on to her maths teacher.
"Lets go call some parents, and I'll give you a ride to the hospital Daichi we can wait to see how our vice captain is together. " Takeda sighed Yachi frowned, "Shimizu will be alright. My cousin is pretty fierce herself, she won't hurt anyone and she'll be sure to get the proper help. And our own coach Ukai is just as annoyingly protective, he'll be sure that fairness is involved with any reprimand. Those two alpha coaches are pretty similar so everything will be alright. Now. Are you hurt?"
The first year shook her head, "Just shaky."
"I bet it's impressive seeing two female alphas fight." Daichi was standing his hands on his knees he was hunched over.

Suga woke up to arguing, "I can't believe this happened. I thought that boy was offering his bond, then he did this! I hope those Alphas ripped him a new one!" Granny's voice was low but stern.
"Calm down mother. It's all superficial according to the police report they didn't get too far."
"Too far! How do we know! He's still unconscious! My poor grandson. And you shut your whore mouth. Why are you even here! I am his guardian you gave up your rights!"
"I was merely coming to be sure he was alright. He is my son after all, my first and only omega child. Don't get worked up mother, your heart."
"Shove my heart! You need to leave before my grandson awakens or I'll -"
"Granny?" Suga winced trying to sit up "Mother?"
"No, don't talk to her she's only leaving, something I'm ashamed to say she's good at. You don't move around too much."
"Suga dear, tell granny to calm down we don't want another heart episode. " The monitors started to beep unsteadily and Granny growled at her daughter.
"Speak of hearts. Nice to see where the weakness comes from. I hear your babysitting mother. How disgraceful, I'll never understand you. You take on this worthless boy, who is only good for marrying up in this world. And he goes and causes an incident with the only Alpha that wanted him, a good family with a good name we could have saved face! I'm here to tell this little slut" she turned her dark eyes that could have been Suga's if he were more cynical and cruel, her face was just as delicate a complete replica of her sons, except she kept her hair swept up in a severe bun. "You will not be pressing charges. I've talked to the boy's family I've come all the way from Tokyo just to tell you-"
"Goodbye." A deep snarl made the monitor's jump but women turned towards the owner of said voice. "Say goodbye to your son, tell him you are glad he's alright and you'll hope for a speedy recovery." A gentleman with dark hair wearing a casual pair of jeans and a black t-shirt instructed with a command to his voice. He glanced at the jumping monitors and took a deep breath.
"Tomo-san why-" Granny started to ask as she placed a wrinkled hand on her grandson's tense shoulder.
"Hinata got a text Granny, I figured you would be here instead of at home resting. You like your grandson have that annoying mothering instinct. You forget your own health. But that's what makes you both so wonderful and loved by everyone who knows you. Well everyone with a soul." He narrowed his dark gaze on Mrs. Sugawara. " Anyway, I don't know this woman but I was told visiting hours for non family ended hours ago. So it's time for you to go." He snapped his fingers reaching for the smaller Alpha's arm, she started to stand stiff but he easily pulled her half shoved her out.
"Excuse me? Who do you think you are?" She growled.
"I've been waiting for hours to have my turn to visit, so has several others. You are non essential." He gripped the back of her neck like a parent would a disobident child and the woman couldn't struggled under the biting hold.
"I am his mother, who the hell do you think you are?" She snarled weakly.
"Family." Tomo growled, "There's more of us out here too, I wouldn't put up too much of a fight considering we all heard the foulness that came from you. You are lucky I don't just toss you to the pack and let them deal with you." Hanajima frowned looking around the waiting room she was being drug through the stranger was right This delinquent stood between her and several growling alphas all young, there were Omegas there too, and they were staring right at her. That was a challenge but she didn't get to answer them the disrespectful little punks! The female alpha was standing with an ice pack on her hands, her glasses were held by a small blond girl, she was baring her teeth. Another female, older scowled in her direction, they were a young pack but no doubting they were a pack.
"Fine! I'll be calling-'
"You won't. Unless it's to ask how he's doing. Now get out before I let Tanaka Lu have a chat about manners, and on how pups are treated." Tomo shoved her away from him disgust apparent in his scent.
"Oh fuck off the lot of you! It's not worth my time. I will not be back. You tell my useless child he can thank you all for that." Sugawara Hanajima huffed over her shoulder.
Tomo watched her leave, there was a sickness in his stomach she left with her scent, how could people just throw away their pups? He was an alpha and had no respect for such people.
Suga was a good kid, he didn't deserve any of this, Granny was a good old lady, kinda blunt and to the point but she had a good albeit weak heart.
These two had done so much for him, Ritzu had left and Granny had convinced him she could help take care of Natsu while he continued to open the bakery. She had also given him the skinny on this Tobio kid, he was harmless just a little stoic and emotionally challenged.
Tomo couldn't let that bitch continue to talk to Suga that way, the kid had been through enough tonight. The bruises on his face, neck and wrists, how could any parent not want to rip someone's head off.
The whole team was there even the cute and very fierce team managers. Suga would need to see this. Poor kid looked worse for wear, and he was unconscious when they brought him in, the police were the first to go in to get a statement. Tomo didn't want to be within hearing distance, he was a coward in that aspect, a coward with a temper. He thought of Shoyo and Natsu, if this had happened on his watch with either of them he wasn't sure he could do the responsible thing and keep from killing someone.
Poor Granny, she had a weak heart maybe someone should have her leave that room so Koushi could give his statement in full.

Daichi winced seeing his father enter into his teammate's room, the door shut firmly behind the two officers, one Omega and one Alpha. It was a mere minute before his own father stormed out of the room handcuffs dangling he headed down the hall to wear Izumi was being cared for. Daichi wished he could remember how it felt to punch the savage bastard. He expected to be interrogated but he wasn't, something must have been said because his father looked enraged.
Granny was sobbing a nurse was helping her to a chair, Daichi could see that no one was making a move to the room except, bless him Shoyo.
Shoyo was with his little sister, they ducked unnoticed past the cooing nurses with their condescending words of "You poor thing" and "It's just a shame you're ruined."
Suga wasn't ruined nothing would ruin him and all that tried, Daichi would see them meet their ends. How dare these bastards touch what isn't theirs! He went to kick a chair but one of the first year Omegas put a hand on his shoulder. Yamaguchi's scent and soft touch had an instant calming affect, and he felt more weary than anything. He just wanted to see Suga, to be sure he was okay, or as okay as one can be.
Was he made that it took Daichi that long to find him? Was he angry that Daichi forced held him and scented him until the paramedics drug him away. Or Noya, he'd hurt him because of his own stupid alpha instincts Why? Why was no one blaming him, they all should. He is their captain and he needs to keep them safe. He hurt Nishinoya, the poor Omega was sleeping curled on Asahi's lap.
That witch was Suga's mom, and no one but Tomo-san stood up to her, they all heard her foul venomous words. Someone should have stopped her from going in. Why didn't he know that part of Sugawara's life. His mother hated him for being an Omega, she gave him up for that reason. How could anyone not love Koushi, the vice captain was sweet, clever, smart and kind. He was unselfish and he was attacked.
Then laughter rang from the room, sweet laughter, Suga was laughing and Hinata looked bright red. Natsu was curled up next to the older gray haired Omega.
Tobio stood up, swearing he heard his name, his cheeks were bright red and he was glad no one noticed him sit gingerly.
Tomo had returned to hear it and knew one thing that would make anyone laugh, and one person responsible. He glanced back at the dark haired setter and smiled a knowing smile. This only caused the younger Alpha to look away cheeks burning red.

"Suga-senpai?"Hinata crept in, he held his breath swearing to not make a scene about the bruises the way that Suga's left eye wouldn't open completely. His two fingers had been splintered together.
"Don't look like that, this is all superficial it will go away. I'm sad I might not be cleared for camp."
"Are you in pain?" Hinata ignored his friend's attempt to keep the moment light.
"It hurts." Suga sighed softly. Granny had left the two, she needed to sit but she wasn't going far, her grandson would be fine with those that surrounded him. He wasn't meeting her eyes, did he think she would judge him for what someone had done to him? Silly, sweet beautiful boy.
Hinata shivered, wiping at his eyes, "Can I hug you?" Suga smiled despite the pain it caused his lips.
He held out a bruised arm, Natsu occupying his right arm he offered his left and Hinata swooped in causing the upperclassmen to grunt.
"Hinata he isn't your boyfriend don't crush his nuts-"
"What?" Suga giggled.
Hinata buried his head in the vice captain's chest. "Don't ask. It's awful."
"I heard him talking to uncle." Natsu giggled. She had heard other things but that was her secret to keep and big brother wasn't smart about things he wouldn't guess what she heard. She wasn't dumb she knew most of it, but it didn't bother her. She loved her brother and she wished her Alpha was uncle, if he were their dad they wouldn't have to worry about aunts temper.
"Natsu you brat. "
"Alright spill. Who is the boyfriend?" Suga's gray eyebrow arched and there was a slight grin on his bruised face.
"I don't know if we are going out, even if we were I don't think we still are."
"Shoyo." Suga nudged his exhaustion dissipating, hearing the calming voice of his underclassmen and the younger Omega was relaxing. The scents in the room felt so nice like fresh baked cookies on a Sunday. "If you are unsure you should ask. I bet Tobio is just as confused. And there's nothing you could do that would make anyone hate you."
"Even if it was accidentally instinctively kneeing him in the balls?"
Suga couldn't hold back despite his situation his whole body ached and he was feeling exhausted but now he needed this distraction.
"Okay now you have to spill."
Shoyo didn't move he only spoke into his senpai's chest, he felt lean arms wrap around him and Natsu squeezing them together.
"What's so funny?" Yamaguchi entered curiously, then on instinct joining the puppy pile, Ennoshita came from behind him with.
"You smell like Noya." Ennoshita sniffed joining the small group removing his coat, not wanting Tanaka's coat to stink like other Omegas especially Nishinoya.
"I used my injection of course he smells like me. And hey I smell good! " The libero yawned rubbing his head. Taking offense to Ennoshita removing his jacket, "Well I wouldn't want to smell like Tanaka either." He grumbled.
Suga shook his head, "You two. Hush. And Yu thank you. You brave brave libero. I should expect nothing less and I owe you my life." Noya froze in mid argument with Chikara, his cheek now bright red he put a hand to the back of his throbbing head.
"I-I. Well. I'm glad I could help. Although Daichi-san did have everything under control sort of. I thought alphas were supposed to go savage around an omega going into heat. " he blushed again bringing up an embarrassing topic.
"No, please tell me Noya. Everything is a little hazy I can't remember much." Suga tilted his head curiously.
Hinata wondered if that was a lie, and all that aside if that is what an Omega looked like after an alpha-after an alpha went into rut, then he wanted no part of an alpha.
Except Noya's story made him rethink that, Daichi-senpai was kind as a person, perhaps that's why he went protective with Suga. Could it be different with a different kind of alpha. Hearing the story made Shoyo's tummy hurt for his senpai.
Then what Noya did was brave, alphas were terrifying when angry let alone territorial.
They piled and scented Suga until his own scent broke through like a mother to pups he scented back purring. This was how Granny found him and she left the room once more, tears in the old alpha's eyes, she thought of her sweet husband. She went to sit in a corner quietly, a hand to her aching heart, it began to slow to a more manageable pace.
"Are Omegas only allowed in this puppy pile?" Tanaka shyly knocked on the door shutting it behind him. Suga tiredly smiled motioning him towards the Omega bed. Omega hospital beds were made large to allow nesting but Suga thought this was the best medicine. These scents so warm pushed away the nightmares and Asahi entered seeing Tanaka take a place beside Noya and Ennoshita. He tried not to be jealous and took his place around the foot of the bed pulling his Noya to him allowing more room next to Suga. Narita and Kinoshita hovered in the doorway unsure what to do, even Yachi had joined the pile. A serious Shimizu and Daichi hanging back in the waiting room.
"We failed you Suga please forgive us." Both self proclaimed bodyguards bowed deeply. "If we had only stayed after with you. " Asahi jumped up and pushed the two Betas towards the pile.
"None of this is anyone's fault, it just happened. I should have been more aware of my surroundings." Suga tightened his arms around Shoyo and Noya.
"You don't have to feel ashamed, this is not your fault and you are never to blame. " Chi offered the same words Hinata had to him.
Suga's eyes watered and he half sobbed half laughed, Shoyo tightened his arms around the older Omega. The vice captain laid back enjoying the scenting even his Beta players were imitating the others. Their scents were just as strong more announced with the help of the others. He did feel safe, and he allowed himself to drift back to sleep. He was floating on the bed of scents, scents that were home.
