Chapter 29 - Quirkless

Pov Kirishima
My family was all over the place once they arrived. The doctors finished up doing their tests so they could come in. My parents were overly worried while my twin siblings were destroying the place with their recklessness. They were 10 years old, always showing off their quirks and fighting each other. But I could see they had missed me as well and had been worried for my safety just like our parents.

We'd mostly just cried and hugged until the doctor came back with the test results. His face didn't predict anything good...
"Ah, hello Mr and Mrs Kirishima, pleasure to meet you" he smiled, shaking their hands before focussing on me.
"Well Eijirou, your results are back. You seem to be in perfect health, so that's good. But there is one thing we think is strange-"

He flipped over some papers on his small pin up board and adjusted his glasses.
"You told us you have problems using your quirk, correct?"
"I-I think they might've jammed it some way... I can't seem to use it at all" I sighed, looking down at my hands, trying to harden them. Nothing happened. I clenched my fists and bit my lip.

My whole life I've thought my quirk wasn't good enough... That it wasn't flashy enough to become a hero. I didn't have the personality to boost that dream either... So I died my hair, turned into this new version of myself. I tried to act confident about my quirk but that façade failed quickly. Yet now that it's gone... I miss it. It's part of who I am, always has been. And even if it's not as cool as everyone else's, I'm still going to try and become a hero with it!

"Yes, I see... Well, we ran every test we could think of and uhm I-I don't know how to say this but the result was always the same"
"What are you trying to tell us doctor? Our son is okay, right?" mom asked worriedly.
"He won't die, I assure you, but his quirk... It isn't just blocked, it's completely erased. Like it was never even there to begin with. All our tests indicate your son is quirkless"

What?!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

He must be joking, right? This isn't really happening, I'm not quirkless, I HAVE A QUIRK! I have a quirk! I-I... I have a quirk, right? I tried to harden myself again but my body didn't seem to react to it. My mom had gasped and dad was listening to the doctor who was now explaining everything into further detail. I wasn't listening, their voices fading to the background.

So that's why he didn't kill me... He didn't take my life, he took my quirk... And with it, he took my status and my future, leaving me to suffer for the rest of my life. Quirkless. How would people react to that? Are they going to look down on me now? Well, the class and our teachers are okay with Midoriya so I shouldn't have to worry about them. But I also know a lot of people in my environment look down on the quirkless, as is the norm.

People even talked to me about the fact I was friends with a quirkless and I shouldn't hang with people like him. Will they let me fall now that I lost my quirk too? Will I still be accepted? Tears pricked in my eyes and I started crying silently. How can I ever become a hero without a quirk? Even if it's not a flashy one, it's better than nothing! Maybe this was my punishment? Maybe fate decided that if I was going to keep bitching about my quirk, I should just have no quirk at all...

I lifelessly stood up from the bed and mumbled I was going to get something to drink. Mom wanted to stop me but dad let me go. I wandered through the halls in my dirty clothes, which I've been wearing for a while now. I'm sure my hair has started to grow out as well. It was already showing a little even before all of this.

I sighed, pushing the loose hairs back on my head, lost in thought. But that was interrupted by shouting from the room I was standing at. Curiosity took me over and I glanced inside. The door was open, not my fault.
"I'm not going back there! Mom, I love UA! All my friends are here! K-Kacchan is here! Please.. Please don't make me leave again!"

I was shocked to see Midoriya in tears, begging his mother to stay. Did she decide he would be better off on the other side of the country?
"You're not save here Izuku! Look at yourself! This never happened when we were still living with your father-"
"This happened because of my father mom!" he yelled back.
"T-they took me for his money, why can't you see that? W-why would putting me even closer to that man give me any more safety?!"

That was the moment his mom noticed me staring from the hallway. I had a blank expression on my face as she glared at me with a certain anger. She really is just a female version of Izuku! Midoriya followed her gaze and his eyes widened. He quickly wiped away his tears and held his mom back before she could snap at me about how this was private and I was unmannered for listening in like that.

"K-Kirishima?"
"H-hi..." I muttered with a small wave, carefully stepping into the room.
"I-I didn't mean t-to interrupt-"
"No, it's fine. We're done here" his mother stated, giving her son a final look before grabbing her purse and leaving the room.
"Sorry you had to see that..." he whispered, looking down at his hands.

"She's very protective over me since I'm her only child and I'm quirkless and all that..."
I wonder if my parents are going to be more protective now that I lost my quirk...
"S-shouldn't you be with your family? Aren't they here yet?" he asked confused as I sat down by his feet on the bed.
"They're talking to the doctor right now. About my...my uhm current condition..." I choked out.

"What about it?" he asked confused, tilting his head a little. I fumbled with my fingers, looking down at my hands. If someone understands, it's him, right?
"The Green Reaper took away my quirk..." I breathed, trying to hold back the waterworks.
"I-I... I'm quirkless now, j-just like you"
It was quiet for a while but I didn't dare to look up at his face.

Suddenly the blankets ruffled and a weight was placed down next to me, making the bed sink a little. A pair of arms wrapped themselves around me and green hair filled my vision.
"I'll help you through this, I promise" he whispered, holding me tightly. It send me over the edge and I started sobbing into his shoulder. That was until an explosion and an angry yell could be heard from somewhere in the hallway.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY?!"

Izuku quickly pulled away and we stared at each other in acknowledgement for a second. That angry yell could only be from one person and one person only. We both turned to face the door, where only a moment later said ruby eyed male was standing. His eyes widened as he saw us, tears welling up in them. Before we had any time to react, he had tackled us down onto the bed, hugging the both of us while kissing Midoriya's face all over.

Third wheel much? Hm, not that I really care about that right now though. Bakubro is hugging me out of his own free volition! I'm so happy!
"You fucking idiots... I missed you two so fucking much" he cried, not letting us go anytime soon.
"I missed you too Kacchan!" Midoriya sobbed, grabbing his head and kissing him fiercely on the mouth. I rolled my eyes and wiggled myself out of the bone crushing death grip of Bakugou Katsuki.

"Oi, get back here, I'm not done with you" the blonde stated, now only hugging me.
"Dare get taken from me again like that and I'll fucking kill you"
"Hehe, okay, I'll try not to" I chuckled, trying to keep the mood light. I don't want to ruin what was going on here by being depressed all over the place and Izuku seemed to have the same idea since he didn't mention what his mom told him.

"By the way, I think your boyfriend is getting jealous"
"Ahw, come here Izu" he cooed, pulling Midoriya in a side hug.
"I think I finally figured out your type" the green head laughed.
"Weak and quirkless"
My eyes widened and before Bakugou could ask any more questions-

"Oh my God! Guys, they're here!" Mina screamed, jumping on top of us with a running start. I groaned but let it happen. Soon basically the whole class was in here, getting emotional all over the place.
"How did you guys even get here?" I asked confused as I wiped away some tears.
"Toya drove us here in the school bus!" Mina exclaimed happily.

"Yeah, he scolded us the entire time to" Sero chuckled.
"Something along the lines of 'if I get arrested for this you're going down with me' or something"
"He's really trying to better his life. It's terrifying" Mina added.
"So where is he now?" I chuckled.
"Canteen, drinking black coffee" Jirou shrugged.

"He's been living off that stuff for days now, like a second Aizawa sensei" Uraraka shuddered.
"It must be hard on him to lose his younger brother this way" Iida added. Right... Todoroki... I looked aside, seeing Bakugou basically making out with Midoriya on the bed. Ugh... The blonde pulled away and smiled down upon the freckled face.
"Now why don't you tell me what you mean by 'weak and quirkless' huh?" he challenged, making me flinch.

"I get that you're jealous, which is super cute, but calling someone weak and quirkless is the last thing I expect from-"
"He's right though" I interrupted him, looking down in shame. Better rip the band aid right off...
"What do you mean Ei?" Mina asked confused, tilting her head a little.
"I am weak" I muttered, clenching my fists as a tear ran down my face.
"A-and quirkless..."

The room was filled with a tense silence before Bakugou spoke up.
"What the hell did those bastards do to you huh? Brainwashing? What is this shit?! Don't tell me you're fucking quirkless when you're obviously not!"
I started crying. Can't he see he was only making things worse! And to add to things, he decided to set off an explosion in my face. Something I could usually mute with my quirk, but now felt the full impact off.

I cried out, crawling in on myself on instinct to protect my face and vital body parts. Everyone stared in shock, even Katsuki didn't know what to say, or so I thought.
"You idiot! Why didn't you use your hardening?! I could've-"
Midoriya stopped him, slowly shaking his head.
"The Green Reaper took away his quirk somehow Kacchan. He's like me now, quirkless"

I hugged my legs, crying to myself as Izuku said that. I bet he thinks I'm not worthy of being his friend anymore... I can't even take a single hit anymore! I'm so worthless... He'll never like me anymore...
"Well, guess I'll just have two quirkless to defend now" Bakugou shrugged like it was no big deal. I looked up at him in surprise, hope burning within me.
"Y-you're... You're okay with m-me being...like this?" I asked quietly.

"My fucking boyfriend is like that, hair for brains" he stated, pointing out Midoriya before waving at the rest of the class.
"Everyone fucking loves you, you moron. Why the hell would we care if you've got a stupid quirk or not?"
I was quickly pulled into a group hug. Yet again everyone got over emotional.
"You guys are the best! I love you!" I cried out.

"Love you too!" Mina exclaimed.
"A-as a friend, of course!" she quickly added.
"Yeah man, you're the one who ties our class together!" Sero grinned.
"Oh, I know! I'll teach you the self defence moves I was taught when I was in middle school!" Midoriya smiled happily.

"Every quirkless is taught basic self defence in middle school you know. It's the law, we have to be able to defend ourselves against quirks"
"Oh, oh, oh! We can all do it together! That way no one feels left out" Mina smiled.
"Sounds like a plan" Jirou grinned.
"Watcha say Midoriya? Want to teach all of us?" Ojiro asked.
"Sure" he smiled, cuddling more with Bakugou.

I frowned though, knowing the one thing he wasn't telling everyone. Those were empty promises... His mom was going to take him away, they'd move to the other side of the country. Again. And he was planning to leave without saying a word, simply vanishing from our lives. Again. It's the same thing he did last time, if I need to believe Bakugou.

Before I could say anything, the nurses came in to shoo the visitors out. Katsuki took his time saying goodbye to Izuku. After that he hugged me a last time and ruffled my hair, stating it was a mess and I had to colour it again. I had to go back to my room again but stayed behind for a bit.
"Why didn't you tell them?" I asked, making him look down at his hands.
"I didn't want to ruin the moment..." he sighed.

"It's funny how fate always finds a way to torture me... It's just like last time. Kacchan will be devastated if I have to leave again"
"So what? You're just not telling him? Break his heart like last time?" I asked, frowning.
"You think I want this?" he hissed, tears in his eyes.

"I don't like my father, okay? You can ask Kacchan about him, he's a scary man. But I can't disobey him. I know he's the one that asked mom to move back, she wouldn't make that decision on her own..."
He took a deep breath, closing his eyes for a moment.

"I want to stay at UA, believe me. I don't want to leave Kacchan or this town. I have my life here... So much unfinished business... But I have no choice. Please don't tell anyone"
I sighed, walking over to the door.
"I won't... But you will. Katsuki deserves a proper chance at goodbye" I stated before leaving.
