"How as the exams?" Shinsou asked Shohei as they walked through the city streets. Aizawa had allowed them to take the rest of the day to just get to know the place, it was kind of a reward for passing the exams.
Shohei groaned, hand rubbing his nape. "It was alright... didn't expect Hound-Dog to be our opponent though." they both chuckled as they took in the afternoon city streets. "He's a rough guy and it really was an obstacle to defeat him..."
"And how did you defeat him?" Shinsou asked in curiosity. It always seemed as if the 1A were on another level, may it he in physical ability or maybe even their mental stability...
"It's... it's uh... hard to explain." Shinsou just laughed at him and waved it off, though he did get a rumor that they defeated him through belly-rubs.
the two had gone close to each other, almost creating a brotherly bond and training every after class, with or without Aizawa.
Shohei learned a lot from Shinsou, from combat, to how to use the scarf and maybe a little look into who Aizawa was. Shinsou, being Aizawa's nephew, knew a few things most didn't know about the man.
I know this is not canon, I just wanted it to be that they are related and that Shohei had some sort of brother/ family member the same age as him :)
Shinsou stopped in his tracks when he realized just where they were.
"Sho... This is the hospital." He said. "This is where (Y/n) is." He turned to look at the shorter male, searching for some kind of answer in his face as the younger male stayed quiet.
"Sho-"
"We're just gonna give Mochi a quick visit." Shohei glanced at Shinsou, dark eyes meeting his purple ones.
The older male placed a hand over his companion's shoulder, saying: "Sho... Aizawa said-"
"Yeah but its unfair!" The younger male fumed. Aizawa had stated that it would be best that Shohei focused on his studies in the Hero course while you were still there, better than being sad and missing you all the time. "And plus... they didnt state that we couldn't visit... technically its just Dad."
Shinsou reluctantly sighed, he looked up at the building then nodded. It would be nice to see you again.
They walked in and as usual as it was in a hospital, people were busy doing their own thing. Shohei didn't need to ask about where your room was because he memorized the way to your room.
"Hey- Sho-!" Shinsou called out as the boy practically ran to your room. He followed after him in worry, he was excited to see you too, but from the way Aizawa had walked home after one of your visitations, he guessed things weren't as good. He was worried Shohei might only get hurt if he saw what kind of state you were in.
When Shinsou snapped out of his own thoughts, he realized that Shohei was running back to him, a troubled look in his face.
"Sho-"
"Call dad now." He ordered, eyes glancing ever so often to where your room was.
"What-"
"Call dad now." He repeated. "I left my phone at home since Dad doesn't allow me to brung it to school so please- call him now." The urgency in his voice worried Shinsou, but he did anyway.
Once the phone started to ring, Shohei grabbed it, frantically chanting for his dad to pick up.
"Sho what happened?" He was ignored as the boy seemed too focused on the ringing phone. He turned to look at your room door and decided to peak through the small window. It was tinted with some sort of blurry coat, but there was a little edge that didn't have it.
Shinsou stepped back, fear took over him. He wasn't sure what he just saw, he didn't understand why or what was happening, but he did understand Shohei's choice to call his dad.

Aizawa finished up his class with the second years and had now started to head to his desk to check papers. As he walked in, the lounge, he noticed Yamada at his desk, with his phone.
"Oi Zashi! Didn't I tell you not to-"
"We have to go." Yamada turned to him, eyes filled with worry. "Shohei just called... something's wrong with Mochi."
He grabbed his jacket and went off to tell Nezu. Aizawa just dropped his stuff at the desk and got ready to leave, despite the fact that he didn't understand.
He followed Yamada out of the school right after Nezu allowed them out and had recommended to call back up if ever.
Aizawa hopped into the car as Yamada drove off.
"What the hell if happening? What did Shohei tell you."
"Akane has (Y/n)."
||
What the fuck? Shinsou thought, heart pounding as he stood right out your door. There was a lot of them in there. All surrounding you.
He didnt know what they were doing to you. He didnt understand why they were doing it to you.
All the wires and needles strapped onto you, it was horrifying, yet he didn't know what to do. He didnt have the capacity to control all of them, nor the strength to take them all on.
God knows what kind of quirks those nurses had.
He turned to see Shohei, who seemed to have a panic attack. He was trembling with uneven breathing. He struggled to move around and almost looked like he might just end up collapsing, but he seemed to be fighting the feeling, quite unhealthy but Shinsou wasn't sure what to do at this situation.
Shinsou had never been in such a situation- he doubted anyone has- and he wasn't sure what to do. What was the smart way to act?
What would a hero do?
Barge in and take them all at once and hope Aizawa- or any hero for that matter- comes in time to back them up?
Call attention to the other doctors to see if they can help? Possibly risking the fact that the others could also be on their side?
Wait it out and hope you're still alive and recoverable by then?
What could he do to save you?
Shinsou felt the weight on his shoulders. He was the eldest for the moment and he didn't want to put Shohei at risk, seeing how the boy was acting now. He was barely staying in his feet with the overwhelming fear he had, and Shinsou felt that too, but he couldn't stop thinking of what he could do to help you.
His feet were glued to the ground, unable to move a muscle as his eyes were on the small blurred window to your room, where they held you.
Experimented on you.
Your cries were heard from where he stood, but it was faint, almost as if they had sound proofed the entire room so no one could hear you cry.
"What do I do?" Shinsou's heart pounded, feeling like it was about to jump out of his chest. His eyes where on his shaky hands, unable to think or move properly.
"(Y/n)!"
He turned to see Shohei running into the ng room, with his dark colored scarf in hand. Barging into the room without rethinking of the possibilities, he quickly restrained as much people he could in there, stopping their operation as he yelled at them to stop.
"You stay away from my sister!"
||
"I'm sorry..." the strain in Rosefield's voice gave it all away.
You shrunk back agains the wall, avoiding her touch as your eyes caught a familiar figure by the door.
Akane.
You cried in fear as you were cornered, Rosefield's face had gone blank, her hand reaching out to you as two other nurses were behind her, blocking any way out.
You were too afraid to use your quirk on them. Rosefield had been good to you... or at least that's how Akane made her to be. The two nurses were under her influence as well, and you didnt want to hurt any one innocent, but what could you do at this point? Let them take you again?
"A-Ai-Aiza-wa." You cried, hoping he could hear you. Hoping that he could save you from the horrors of Akane. You hoped he'd be there to save you.
Tired, powerless and in pain- you were strapped to a slanted metal table, arms and legs bound, a shock collar around your neck and all sorts of wire and needles being injected into you.
"Her vitals are in check and she is in a stable condition."
"Alright... good... how is her body holding up?" Akane asked, arms crossed and eyes on you.
"So far, her body has been able to hold onto her quirk... quite amazing actually." One doctor noted. "A destructive quirk like that and who knows how long the body can hold... yet hers seems to be in a great condition... aside from the occasional over heat." He motioned to the healing burn marks you had from the Hosu incident.
The burns vaguely resembled the markings you had ok that night.
"Good." Akane hummed. "I need to know her current situation as quickly as I can... god knows how long that stupid hero will take till he finally notices." She chuckled slightly, "thought, from the looks of it, it might take long considering he's missed a few days of precious visitation days."
She turned to the blank faced and stiff Rosefield.
"Oh Rosie I'd like to thank you for this." Akane cooed. "Walking in and checking on the kid out of curiosity... just as you always have been... you just gave me an opportunity." Rosefield's face stayed blank, but visible sweat started to form, as her inner emotions tried to show.
Akane giggled even more. "If you werent the curious trauma hero you were, maybe I wouldnt have gotten the idea of the distance therapy." She lightly caressed the hero's face. "And getting you under my control wasn't as hard too. God who knew Eraser was stupid enough to allow this!"
She laughed turning to see you slightly struggle due to the pain.
"Ah darling... keep moving and it would only hurt more." You refused to listen to her as she clicked her tongue. "We're doing this for you... trying to understand your quirk."
You cried, eyes starting to glow.
"Inject, quickly!" One doctor ordered.
"Is that drug even effective?"
"Ahh well, thanks to a great acquaintance of mine, we get to have early samples of the temporary erasure drugs." Akane smiled. "Put her to sleep as well... it would be less of a hassle."
But before they could even inject you with the sedative, Shohei burst into the room, wrapping as much of the nurses and doctors he could with his scarf. He knocked out a few of them as well.
"Get away from my sister!" He growled at Akane.
"Ahh here's a nosy brat." She clicked her tongue and a scowl formed in her face. "You kids never do understand... there are just somethings a little too complicated for you kids to understand."
She motion her hand to him, and instantly, the other nurses were onto him.
They tackled him to the ground, but he did his best to fight them off, knocking out some and kicking them away.
Shohei felt dizzy and weak, maybe due to the rapid pumping of his heart and the way to short breathes he had been taking, but he tried to go on.
"Shohei!" Shinsou hollered, running into the room to help. His purple eyes meeting a familiar blank stare; a stare of a brainwashed person.
Some sort of brainwashing quirk? Like mine? Shinsou tried to think of a way to release Rosefield from the spell she was under. He dodged one of Akane's hits and tried to keep a distance.
How can she activate that quirk? He thought it out as he decided to target the limp and unknowing Rosefield, hoping his guts were right.
He gave the girl a kick to the gut, but she only moved back like she was only given a little push. It was odd, as his quirk's hold ended with a simple damage to the opponent.
"Quick pain won't do." Akane gave him a hard kick to the side. The boy groaned in pain as he was pushed back to the wall.
As the lady got closer and nearing Shinsou, the boy trembled in fear. He has never been in situations like this before, the one in Hosu was just as terrifying to the point he had nightmares about it.
It made him wonder just how life as a hero would be. He wondered if he'd even stand a chance at becoming a hero, since Class 1A actually had gone through maybe even worse of a situation than this.
As his eyes met the dark and menacing ones of Akane, he wondered if he'd actually die.
But before any of the death he had imagine in his head could happen, Shohei had intervened and kicked her away from him, only to be tackled by the brainwashed Rosefield.
"S-s-soo-o-r-ry." Was a hushed voice that came from the lady that tackled Shohei to the ground. Her face still held no expression, but there were tears forming in her eye, some spilling to Shohei's face.
He struggled again the bigger woman, his rather small teenaged body still hadn't mastered the skill of pushing off or carrying things heavier and bigger than himself.
Shinsou kicked her off of him, sending her against a wall and cutting a wound on her shoulder as he fell limp to the floor.
He was going to help Shohei up, but stopped and dodged Akane's attempt to hit him with her metal arm that he had only noticed now.
That would have been a bad ending if he hadn't noticed it earlier.
"Like it? Thanks to your little sweet-cheeks here-" She gestured to your now limp form, probably knocked out due to the pain, "-I get a new little upgrade." Her metal arm clutches its fists before she decides to attack him again.
He barely dodged the punch, but does so anyway. He pushed Shohei away as he was then pushed in the back, sent to through the door they came in and crashing against the wall, leaving him to fall unconscious on the floor.
"Shinsou!" Aizawa yelled, as he had witnessed the boy flying out of the room and crashing to the wall. He and Yamada ran to him as Hoshiko followed behind.
Yamada tried to wake the boy and checked if there were any serious damages aside from the obvious concussion.
Aizawa had turned to see the horror. You knocked out and strapped to the a slanted table with wires all over you while you brother was suffocating against Akane's metal grip.
"R-rose-f-field..." Shinsou muttered out in pain. "A-Akane... ha-ha-as... been.. co-" he painfully coughed out, "-control-ing... her..."
Aizawa stood there, limp. He had brought this upon you. He was too busy, to hurt to see how their acts were actually getting suspicious.
Was he that ignorant that? That ignorant that he never once felt like this whole therapy shit was suspicious? Not even one of this little father senses tingling because his kid was getting tortured?
That you were in danger?
He took a heavy breath in and clenched his fists. He dashed to the lady and pulled her off of his son.
"Ah daddy's finally arrived." She teased, using her metal arm to push him off, breaking a rib or two.
Aizawa groaned in pain, eyes landing onto his son, who tried to inhale as much air as he could, weak from the lack of oxygen in his body.
Aizawa struggled to get up, he hadn't expected such a powerful blow from her, not really realizing that she had a metal arm.
He shakily tried to get up, only to be shocked that Hoshiko fearlessly - or rather, stupidly in Aizawa's eyes- went in to try and attack.
She was swift enough to dodge Akane's attacks, nut not nearly as strong to hurt her, especially since she used her metal arm to shield herself.
As Hoshiko tried to give another attempt in landing a hit to the lady, she was not as quick to dodge one of her attacks.
It was a quick hit to the shoulder that sent Hoshiko tumbling back.
"Hoshi!" Yamada worriedly called out, unsure if it was safe to even leave Shinsou that this state.
He slightly regretted making everyone in the hospital to evacuate, especially now that he needed a doctor to keep the boy in check.
He couldn't use his quirk as you all were in the sane room as her, it would only end up hurting you all.
He watched as his kid, slowly straightened up, but something felt different.
The young girl turned to Yamada, eyes blank and face holding no emotion.
"Hoshi... ko?" Yamada barely whispered, fear creeping in. He did not want to have to fight his kid.
He ducked when the girl swung a kick at him. He gently brought Shinsou down as he moved back, trying not to get hit by Hoshiko. He thank the gods she didn't decide to go and use the already unconscious Shinsou as an advantage.
"Ho-hosh! Hey!" Yamada nervously moved further and further away from her as she led him away from where Akane was.
"What the fuck did you do to her?"
Akane quirked a brow, "oh nothing but a little brain washing." She stalked closer to Aizawa, towering above his pain form as he barely could stay on his knees. " and now-"
Her eyes landed on Rosefield, who was quickly unstrapping you from the table and trying to get you awake as she had no more real strength to fight or get you out of there.
Akane forgot about Aizawa abd had moved passed him, heading to the both of you in anger.
You barely had you eyes open, but you could see just how quick Aizawa was to disregard his pain to stop Akane from even getting close to you.
You looked up to see Rosefield. Her eyes watering as she weakly muttered: "I am sorry... I didn't mean any of this." She settled you down to the ground before she decided to put up a fight, even if it might be for the last time.
As Akane pushed Aizawa to the side, Rosefield ran towards the lady, with full intent to kill, only to be punched in the gut with Akane's metal arm and sent back against the wall, leaving her to black out due to the impact.
You watched as Aizawa struggled to get up and Shohei barely staying awake.
You teared up as you had no strength in you to fight. God knows how long you've been strapped to that table.
You caught Akane's eye. Her eyes held some sort of malice, hate and fear?
Her metal arm caught Aizawa's throat and the man chocked, trying to get out. He noticed her stare at you and all he could do was yell at you to leave.
"D-dad?" Shohei seemed to be regaining strength and consciousness, eyes filling with terror.
"Leave." The older man chocked. He could barely keep his eyes open from the pressure on this throat. "Take (Y/n) and leave..." his voice was strained yet still held the authoritative and urgent tone to it. "Leave...now."
Shohei shuffled to his feet and tried to get you out, but it seemed Akane had a different plan in mind than killing Aizawa in front of you.
Said man grabbed Shohei before he could even get close to you.
"Dad-?" He was harshly thrown to the wall. His silver eyes looked up to see the familiar blank expression in his face. "D-da-dad." Shohei's voice cracked, tears of fear formed as he was held by the collar and slammed against the wall. "Dad!"
You watched in horror as Aizawa beat Shohei in front of you. The audible cries of pain and terror filled your ears.
The boy was dropped to the floor, bloody and unconscious.
You scrambled to your feet and tried to get away as Aizawa turned to you.
Unfortunately, he caught you. You cried out in pain as he had you against the wall, his big hands on your small neck. He was crushing your windpipes.
Choking, you looked him in the eyes, trying to find something, anything in them. You hoped that maybe he'd recognize you. Maybe he'd stop and realize what he was doing.
Lightheaded, nauseous and in pain- you weren't sure what else you could do. You were on the verge of death and there was only one thing in your head.
Tora.
His words to you the other day. About trust and betrayal. About how adults could make you feel like the world and then suddenly turn it all around.
You wondered if he had known all along what Akane was doing. If it was just his little way of warning you.
Or if it was his sick way of playing with you.
You weren't sure and, at the moment, you didn't care.
Tears streaming down your face as you finally decided that you couldn't let this go any more. You brought your hards out in an attempt to push him off with your quirk.
But nothing.
You tried to activate your quirk and stop him from finally killing you, but nothing. You couldn't use your quirk and you wondered why.
"That's the drug doing it work." Akane giggled. "That would probably wear off in a few more minutes... but I doubt you'd live through that." She walked over to you two, a hand sliding up the man's shoulders as he continued to choke you.
"Just give me a little signal... and I'll kill him and you can be alive and safe... with me." Her dark grin painted its way into your memories, probably going to all the other horrid ones as well, stocked into the part of your brain that held all the trauma.
You thought that maybe this might actually be the last picture in your head. The image of the man you trusted the most choking you to death while the lady that tormented your entire life stood behind him with a grin on her face.
It might be the last image in your head, if you didnt decide to agree to being saved by Akane. Even with that, you refused to do that to Aizawa.
You wondered why you had such forgiveness in you. What is forgiveness though? Would you call it forgiveness? You didnt know or care, all you did care about was the fact that you might just die in the hands of the man that you trusted the most.
You gripped onto his arms, trying to get them off, but of course it was to no avail.
Your vision began to go blurry as your grip on his arms loosened. You wondered what you happen to you once you died.
You were getting sleepy.
But a loud noise awoke you a bit. And that was the sound of a roaring tiger coming in to pounce onto Akane. He fought her despite the lady's powerful metal arm.
"I have no time nor energy to be wasting onto your furred ass." She grunted as he tackled her to the ground.
It gave you a new source of strength to fight- it gave you hope.
You clawed at him arms despite no real damage. You desperately tried.
And then your claws finally came out.
The latched onto Aizawa's arms and cut through his skin, it wasn't as deep, just something that might get him to weaken or stop due to pain.
Akane saw this and her eyes just widened. "The drug isn't suppose to wear off til later."
With tear stained eyes, you clawed at his hands in hopes for it to weaken, but nothing was happening aside from the blood in your hands and the fresh wounds on the man's arms.
"A-Ai...za...wa." Your small voice seemed to be the once to break him from Akane's hold. His eyes softened and he finally realized what he's done.
He let you go and you fell to the ground.
"Shit." Was what he said, eyes on his hands. He ignored the blood or the pain, all he could think about was what he had done to you- he urned to see Shohei's unconscious body behind him and he couldnt make out any words to express what he was feeling.
"(Y/n)." He turned to you, in attempts to apologize.
Heaving for air and still haunted by his recent actions, you cowered away, bloody hands on your neck with absolute terror in your eyes.
Aizawa wasn't much in his right mind. Filled with dread, guilt and so many more emotions- all he wanted to do was apologize to you for what he had done- for what he had caused due to his ignorance.
So he tried to get close despite your obvious fear of him.
Witch led to Tora effectively hitting the man in the head and knocking him out. He did so right after he restrained Akane with his elemental quirk.
Not long after, you could already hear other people swarming into the room, along with Yamada and a slightly bleeding Hoshiko. Though, you didnmt care about who else was in the room or what was happening. You began to become lightheaded and pain and lack of energy didn't really help you.
And soon, you had drifted off into a dreamless slumber.
