More sirens travelled towards the USJ facility. It was only in eye shot that Geus recognized the vehicles. Two squad cars and a gray bus traveled down the lone path. He swore to himself, a moment where the memory of prison returned. The thoughts of his friends, and the memory of this place was placed aside. All he could think about was the purple room he forced to call home. The rest of the students turned down into whisper once they noticed the cars. The ones that were on top of his situation turned to Geus.

The doors to the bus opened up. The driver who didn't like him very much was back on. Geus rubbed his tongue on the back of his teeth and walked to the bus. Fumikage's arm grabbed on to Geus's.

"I'll see you at school tomorrow."

"Yeah, of course." Geus broke free from the weak grip and continued onto the bus.

Geus learned upon arrival that there would be no school the next day. That also meant he was stuck in his cell for another day without any visitors. No matter how much he thought of it, Geus couldn't put in words for his depression. He felt nothing, every call from Beka he ignored, all his school work he ignored. Lt. Bailey called down to offer assistance in his training for it to be rejected. The only thing that he thought caused this damper on his day was his hand. Without help from the school's nurse his hand was left to scar over. The mere sight of his in its flesh brought back suppressed memories.

One year ago

Geus laid almost completely naked on a operating table. Needles and monitors were injected and placed all of his body. A specialized gas mask was placed over his mouth. Purple air pressed against the clear mask and disappeared soon after. He was placed unconscious and several monitors made sure he was still alive.

Three people stood over his side, all three were in hazmat suits. One of them white, who stood closest to Geus's head, and a taller and smaller yellow suit.

"We looked over the old documents of your son Mrs and Mr Sansei. And it seems that anomaly in his heart five years ago was the quirk manifesting in his system. It finally reached maturity and his body just wasn't ready. Something in his life sparked it in rapidity." The man in white explained. "I'll leave you for a few minutes, a few nurses will be in shortly to prep him for surgery. I must remind you, he only has a ten percent chance to live if we get the source of his quirk out."

"We know. And we're prepared, we've waited fourteen years for this and we're not going to stop now. Five years ago it was unseen, now we have a chance to restore our family name." The taller one said.

"Alright. I'll leave you two be." The white man opened the door behind them and closed to shut.

Only the two in hazmat suits were still in the room. They got close to their son's bedside. They both removed their helmets and gazed at their son. His father's face turned angry, both fists were clenched tight. His face scrunched up and sway to both sides. He turned around and walked to the door. His hand pressed against the wood and his face rested in his arm.

"I can't do this, either way our son will always be reminded of what he was." His father cried in his arm.

"I know. That's why when he's dead, we can start new and raise the child we always should have had." His mother ran his finger down and up his arm as she spoke. Her fringe dragged past his shoulder and around his neck. "Two minutes, that's all we need." Her hand twirled around to grasp his neck. "Then we can start again."

Her hand tensed up with furious strength. The heartbeat monitors and xray screens rose drastically in numbers. Nurses banged on the door to be let in. His father saw the events before they happened. A chair jammed the doorknob and the door was locked. His mouth opened wide and rushed out laughs. Deep, dark laughs. He walked back over to the other side of the table. His own hand reached above Geus's mother and strangled his son.

Geus snapped out of the of the forced comma. His eyes were bloodshot red and stared directly into his mother's eyes. Out all his years alive, this was the first time he saw her legitimately happy. The laugh of his father, the pounds and screams of the ones outside, the loud and quick beeps of the monitors. Every second rushed fast than the others the mask that was over his face melted away and created holes. His mother and father began to cough from the leaked gas.

Present day

Geus jumped out of his state of mind and back to reality.

"Geus!" Bailey shouted in his face.

Geus looked into Bailey's soft eyes. Everyday was something knew for him. Bailey's face was worried for him. Since the third burn he caused of a guard, he never seen him in standard gear. One hand was on his thigh and the other was on his shoulder. Geus rubbed his eyes and leaned his head back from his chair.

"What?" Geus asked between deep breaths.

"You alright? You're sweaty." Bailey stood up to his feet. "Never seen you like this. Little frightening."

"Yeah, just looking in my past. Why are you here?"

"You have a visitor."

Geus cupped his hands. "Thought I wasn't allowed visitors."

"The board saw the footage from the USJ, they're seeing real results from the school of your heroism. Some things are being lightened from it."

Geus eyes filled with water. He closed his eyes and asked away the dripped water. He pushed up on his knees and walked to the elevator. Bailey watched him go past him and followed him after to the elevator. Bailey pressed the elevator button, he straightened his stance and quietly laughed. He kept his face forward and moved his eyes to the corner of his eye to look at Geus.

"Don't screw this up kid."

Geus laughed just as quietly as Bailey. "I won't."

The doors opened up to the main floor. Lt. Bailey escorted Geus through secured hallways to the main cell block of the detention center. Even though Geus went through this block every day of his time here, everyone was still in their cells. The only difference between today and those regular days, every cell was left open. Yet they all remained inside their cells and away from the yard. Geus acted like he didn't care and proceeded forward to the other side. Bailey unlocked the door at the other side and held it open.

Down a few more locked hallways, they entered into a free space. Its been a while since Geus has been in this part of the facility. Rounded tables were lined row after row with people scattered through out them. He just stood behind thick glass and a door to the other side. Geus recognized Iida on the other side on one of the tables. Bailey stepped to the door and unlocked it.

"Well, your visitor is out there. You have five minutes."

Geus nodded and walked forward to the other side. Immediately he heard whispers through the crowd change to him. Iida looked directly at him and held his hand in the air with a small wave. Geus walked through the rows of tables and to Iida's table. Geus swung his leg over the seat and sat across from his schoolmate.

"You know, you're my visitor in six to seven months." Geus opened up the conversation. "Never expected you to be honest."

"Are you kidding me? I am the class rep of our class! It is my sole duty to ensure the best for my classmates!"

Geus shushed him. "Calm down, this place isn't the place for loudness. Too much noise and this meeting will be wrapped up." Geus looked around to the other tables and guards. Once he figured out everything was clear, he leaned on the table. He placed his elbows on the table and intertwined his hands. "What's going on?"

"I received a message that you weren't doing well today. As class rep and your friend, I had to come down."

"I'm fine. Nothing to worry about."

"I may not be your therapist" Geus's eyes opened and looked down at the table.

'How does he know I have a therapist? Everybody knows having a therapist means you're weird'

"but even I can see there is something off of you."

Geus sighed, he wrapped his arms on top of the table and planted his chin in the pile. "It was that whole USJ attack. Momo and Jiro looked at my quirk with fear. I know we're amateurs and haven't seen the bad side of hero-e. I haven't spoken to anyone since the attack. I'm a little worried they might see me in a different light and not want to be friends anyone" Geus leaned forward on the table. "I don't have any friends outside you guys Iida. If I don't make this work, I'm going to the big house!"

"I see. The only thing I can say is trust that your friends see you as you still. Quirks like Todoroki's can cause a lot of physical trauma and we still see him as part of the class. That was just the first time anyone has seen your quirk in use outside of practice. Give them time."

"Geus." Bailey leaned into his ear. "Time is up." He straightened his back and walked away from the two.

"Thanks for the talk Iida." Geus corrected his back and got up from the seat. "And tell Beka to stop feeding you words, next time I want to hear directly from you when we talk." Geus turned his head to the woman that sat alone at a far table. Her eyes were covered and hair was dyed brown. He didn't notice at first that the woman paid any attention to them. A few corillations of their talk and her movements said otherwise. Geus winked at the disguised Beka and made his way back to the protected wall.

"Don't think I can't see that phone in your pocket." The door guard said. He opened the door and allowed Geus through.

"Not hiding it." Geus said as he past by. At the next door, Bailey waited for him. A beep went off and Bailry pushed open the door for him. "Thank you." He said and walked off without another word.
