It was hard to breathe. The last time you felt this gripping, paralyzing fear was when you were back in Magnolia in that damn hell house with him. He made you feel less than a human, less than an animal, he made you feel as if you were the shit you stepped in. You remember his stupid little creations used to have playtime with you and just seeing one of them standing there in front of you made you want to scream, cry and throw up all at the same time. It was even more gruesome than you remember. Its giant black body with four arms and razors for nails, a mouth that is unhinged showcasing rows of jagged teeth, and those eyes. Those eyes flashed black and red showcasing only hatred, malice, and ill intent. It wasn't a pretty sight and it made all might look small.

"It took us years you little bitch to find you." You took two steps back noticing Touya lighting up flames and standing in front of all his siblings. Shit, you had to get them out of there. Now. "You're coming with us and for all our troubles your playtime is going to be so much fun." He bent down and before he can move you leaped backward in a blink of an eye going on the second landing with the children.

"Get your parents and HAUL ASS!" You glanced over your shoulder watching Natsuo pick up Fuyumi and Shoto and run. You turned back around only to have to throw yourself sideways as a tentacle shot out at you destroying that part of the balcony. You landed on your feet skidding backward tail, fangs, and claws on full display. You couldn't beat him, you knew that but, maybe you and Touya can buy a minute or two until Enji and Rei come. You didn't have a chance to think about hearing a crash and watching Touya hit the pillar painfully. You winced at his crumpled form and were beginning to panic when he struggled to get up.

"You're nothing but a fucking bug." The creature lifted its heavily muscled leg and was ready to stomp on his back but your reflexes surprised you and in a second you blocked the foot with your own tail gritting your teeth as you felt the bones break. You let out a hiss picking up Touya and throwing both of you to the side dodging a second blow. You stood protectively in front of Touya facing off the creature. You'll be damned if you go back to that place. You rather die.

"Awww look at Lizzy finally protecting something. I'm surprised they haven't left you yet." You held your ground not phased by the words thrown at you. You've heard so much worse and had even more than that done to you. "You're useless anyway, you couldn't even protect your own sister." You flinched at that. Now that was a sore spot. Fucking dick.

"Fuck you." His face twisted into something that resembled a grin but was way harsher.

"Oh don't worry sweetheart, there will be plenty of time for that as soon as you come back." You shrieked at him taking pleasure in the way he cringed and covered his ears. It gave you time to hop backward with Touya noticing he was still out of it. You flinched though at the look he gave you. You remembered that look. You were left beaten, bruised, and bloody for weeks at a time. Out of all of Hiro's creations, this was the one you were scared of the most. Where the fuck was Enji and Rei. You decided to do something you haven't done in a long time. You covered Touya's ears and unhinged your own jaw. Yes. Unhinged. That was something you always kept hidden since it scared people away. You let out an ear-piercing scream. You couldn't fight. You can only dodge and you hoped the sound waves from your scream would disorient him. It did not. It only pissed him off. "Fucking bitch" Oh fuck. You grabbed Touya and started dancing back and forth dodging the onslaught of punches and tentacles.

"Come on Touya. Please. Use your fire. I'll be okay." You were worried. You were getting a bit sloppy the hits making nicks on your skin. You didn't want Touya hurt any more than what he was. AND WHERE WERE ENJI AND REI.

"GOTCHA" Your momentary lapse in attention earned you direct penetration through the stomach. You let out an ear-piercing scream dropping to the ground. You tried to get up but, he was on you already gripping your tail painfully. You whined as the broken bones creaked. You blinked your vision blurring from tears. You couldn't go back. Not now. Not ever. You tried to claw the ground but you might as well as tried to claw water. You were getting closer to the portal and, before you were pulled in you felt heat and cold hit your back and your tail was let go. You gave a sigh of relief at the feel of cold on your backside and looked behind your shoulder to see Enji burning the absolute shit out of him. He had him trapped in a fire tornado burning him. You would have enjoyed his screams if you weren't trying to stay conscious. Was Touya okay? You looked in front of you and to your relief, he was sitting up but rocking. That wasn't good but, he was going to be okay. Could the same thing be said about you? Maybe? Who knows.

"Stay with me, baby. Come on." You listened to Rei's voice and you tried. You really did but, the black spots over taking your vision combined with heavy limbs made it impossible. You'll apologize to her later.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you woke up again it was to the sound of beeping and aching limbs. Ah, that was normal. Well better than how you normally wake up. You'll wake up with a pounding headache, dizzy, hungry, and lethargic but, this time you only felt lethargic. You blinked away the blurriness and saw that the beeping was from the machine hooked up to you. You looked around and saw you were in the hospital again with bandages around your middle and on your tail. You looked over to the window but the view you saw caught you off guard. They were all there. All of the Todoroki's were there. Enji and Rei were in a spare bed with Shoto, Fuyumi, and Natsuo. You looked down finally taking note of the weight and saw that it was Touya holding your hand tightly with his other arm resting on your leg. He was asleep and you smiled gently running your free hand through his red hair. You giggled as he snuggled closer wrapping his arm around your leg this time. You continued your ministrations going over your memory of the last events. You remembered way more than you did the day before. You remembered that you have been working as Enji's secretary for two years now and that you would stay over at his estate just as much as you would at your own home. You also met some pro heroes such as All Might, Burnin', Edgeshot, and the rest was fleeting. You remember how you hid away from Miruko since he was way more fierce in person than on TV and Hawks seemed way more chipper and down to Earth than his hero persona. That's all you remember which is way more but, you still can't remember how you ended up in the hospital earlier in the week.

"Y/N?" You turned at the soft voice pausing in running your hand through Touya's hair but, continuing when he whined in his sleep. You saw Rei looking up at you with tears in her eyes. You did your best to smile at her nodding to let her know you were okay. She sniffed and that seemed to wake up Enji. One eye opened to look at Rei before looking over at you both eyes opening now.

"Y/N-Chan?" His baritone woke up the kids on his chest who sat up looking around before their eyes fell on you.

"Y/N-Chan!" Their little yells woke up Touya who stared directly at you his hold on your tightening protectively. You smiled at him as he eased up a bit allowing his siblings to come to you and grab you themselves to make sure you were in fact okay.

"Hey, guys. I'm glad to see that you're okay." They nodded and then started talking your ear off about God's no what and the whole time Touya hasn't moved and neither did your hands. It was nice and you noticed idly Enji go and get the doctor. When the doctor came in the kids scattered giving the doctor room to check you. Once they determined that you were good they said you were free to go in a few hours. "I remember more." You paused turning to the occupants to make sure that you had their attention "I've been here for two years already and I remember some pro heroes too." You smiled but it still bothered you that you couldn't remember.

"That's great that you remember so much, that means the side effects are slowly wearing off." You nodded at Rei laying back down in the bed only to look over at a knock

"Hey, chickadee." You rose an eyebrow at Hawks wondering why the pro hero was here but then your eyes bugged out when you saw who was next to him.

"MIRKO!"
