4. Healing One's Trauma
3RD PERSON POV
Y/N: Family?
Mayu: Y-Yeah.....
After a week, Mayu was comfortable enough to talk with everyone. She even let out a smile a couple of times, exciting everyone as she now could stay at Y/N's house. Meanwhile Jed won the court case against Mayu's parents and now the dad has to go to jail and Mayu's mom has to pay compensation. She kept arguing to arrest Y/N for assaulting her husband but considering the fact that cameras showed him walking from the bridge with the girls out of sight to their front door and walking back while there was no info of a Y/N in the database, they all looked at her as if she was crazy.
Y/N: My family......*smile* They were nice. Mom always cared for me...dad always worked but loved us all...my big sister always had my back....it was all good...
He lets out a sad sigh...remembering the good old days.
Y/N: And they died.....one drunk driver while I was at home......I was all alone...and then I died to a drunk driver myself....
Shoka: O-Oh.........
They all sat in a circle, sharing their stories.
Y/N: What's your dog's name?
Mayu: W-Wanta.
Shouko: *smile* That iz a nize name.
Mayu: Thank you...
Y/N: Kaede.....what about your parents?
Kaede: I-I don't know who they are.....
Y/N: I'll ask Jed to look into it.
Shouko: M-My mom waz nize......util she sole me off.
Y/N: Yeah that's sadly true....
Shoka: My dad is a fucking abuser and my mom is in a mental hospital because of him.
They were taken aback by her blunt attitude as her face darkens.
Y/N: Can I kill him?
Everyone: Y/N NO!
Y/N: Y/N YES!....Alright I'm just kidding.
Shoka pouts as Y/N dematerializes his shotgun.
Yuzuru: Y/N you said you're our caretaker but.....how does that work?
Mayu: Caretaker?
Y/N: Well.....it's a long story.
Later
Y/N begins explaining everything that involved him as everyone listens.
Y/N: In the multiverse there has been many disturbances that Jed is working to fix. These disturbances are the result of impure souls or ones that are filled with negative intent. If there's too much impure souls the universe will be corrupted with some strange energy....I don't really understand it but if there's too much corrupted energy the worlds become unstable and if it continues on its current path the entire universe collapses onto itself.
Shoka: *scared* S-So my world-
Y/N: But luckily by removing one soul from each world, the negativity immediately stabilizes and the world will continue to be stable for 5000 years before the cycle repeats.....but there's a catch.
Yuzuru: Remove a soul?
Y/N: A fancy way of saying take care of them.
Shouko: Cach?
Kaede: What catch?
Y/N: *sigh* The people collected have to fit a general but specific requirement. First.....they're gonna have to have a shitty life and gone through abuse.
Yuzuru: B-But....*realize* oh.....
Y/N: Yeah.....*points* You bullied and being poor all your life before being sold off by the only person you could call family, you being......experimented on and belittled by all humans....your dad abusing you with training and other things along with your entire family....and uh Mayu.....let's say your family is ###############.
He stops talking, seeing all of them trembling before he wraps them all into a hug.
Y/N: *hug* Sorry if I upsetted you all.
Shoka: *cuddle* I-It's fine.....
Shouko/Kaede: Mmmmmm........
Yuzuru: It's warm.....
Meanwhile Mayu was squished between everyone, not sure how to react though she melts to their warmth.
Mayu: *cuddle* Mmmmm......
Y/N:.....Mayu?
She looks up, seeing no one around her as she was hugging Y/N who looks down on her.
Y/N: You could've asked for a hug you know...
Mayu: S-Sorry.
Y/N: No it's fine!
Mayu lets go of him before bowing though he reassures her as they sat down again.
Y/N: This planet is called Earth like yours. But unlike the other Earth's, this was the result of a successful project called Project Utopia 1360 where a mass of humans and other species from different worlds are gathered in an attempt to create a peaceful civilization that can help stabilize the growing multiverse. Yes....this isn't the first one.
Kaede: What was the first one?
Y/N: Project Utopia Number 1 was.......Nevada. *sigh* I always loved visiting that world....even after a million years civilization is still thriving there. The government here is chill though.
Kaede: S-So I won't get kidnapped?
Y/N: I already explained your situation. Safe to say even if you enter your world and the creepy ass government tries to capture you I have a literal official kill license to protect those who are under my care.
Shouko: B-Bun don kill!
Y/N: I'll try not to...can't guarantee it for other jobs though. So yeah...I'm a Caretaker tasked with caring for some souls....which is you all in order to stabilize your universes....yeah I know it's a bit shocking that you're the key to saving your worlds and it makes no sense but it is what it is.
Mayu: Y-Y/N...how can you travel to different dimensions?
Y/N: The dimensional traveling ability is granted on a trust level. If Jed believes you can be trusted with the ability, you gain limited access to some of the 250 different public universes out there you could visit. It's like making a portal with your mind. I have a couple of friends from the 250 different dimensions. And even then, the universes are continuously increasing due to more corruption...which is inevitable now that I think about it.
He talked about the many interdimensional technologies of the current world they are in, the many countries and places that varied in different sizes and species including the system that everything worked on.
Y/N: Well to be honest I was only given the power of speed but since some of these worlds are uh....kinda overpowered in terms of strength I was able to learn a lot of things in my teaining. Yes my main ability is literal speed but I'm a summoner as well. Specifically a summoner of devils to aid me, weapons around the multiverse to use, and vehicles and dragons as transportation. Yeah I can summon a lot of stuff.....wait.....y'all want to see my dog?
Kaede: Dog?
*WHOOSH*
Rover: *BARK*
Mayu lets out a yelp as a big mass of black fur tackles her onto the floor. She looks up, scared only to find a massive black dog panting happily, his 6 glowing eyes staring at her as he yaps excitedly.
Mayu: N-Nice dog....
She reaches out, petting the dog as it gets off of her and stood there.
Mayu: S-Sit.
He immediately sits down, panting happily as Mayu had a look of awe on her face.
Mayu: It listens to me?
Y/N: That's Rover. He's my dog but he actually leaves the house to explore the world for a bit for a few days at a time, though he was gone for a month this time around.
Rover barks along with Wanta as Tippy nuzzles against its leg.
Yuzuru: Oh! *excited* Can I pet it?
Y/N: Go ahead.
The girls walked forward, petting Rover as he rolls onto his back, allowing for them to rub his belly.
Y/N: He likes it around the neck and chest area.
Shouko: *awe* Wow.....
Rover's leg was twitching as he lays there willingly. After 5 minutes or so, their hands were off of him and Y/N picks him up from the ground.
Y/N: He's a good therapy dog too. If you feel upset come by him anytime.
They all nod their heads as he puts him down onto the ground.
Y/N: So what do you guys want to do?
Later
Kaede: *curious* How did you get that?
She looks at the scar on his chest as he chuckles.
Y/N: From a little accident during my training.
Kaede: I-I would like to show you my scars....
Y/N: Now why woul-
His words stop as she takes off her shirt. He didn't look at her torso area from before thank god but he didn't expect for there to be many scars.
Kaede: I-I'm comfortable with you Y/N....you're so nice to me.
Y/N: Maybe-
*WHOOSH*
A pair of her vectors grab onto him before dragging him to her. Turning him around, she hugs him tightly, enjoying the feeling of his body pressed against hers.
Kaede: *cuddle* It's so warm.....thanks for protecting me......
Y/N: Your welco-
*THUD*
They both turn to the open door, Shoka's and Shouko's face completely red as they stare at the two.
Y/N:.....IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS!
Shoka: *red W-We'll b-be going now!
They all ran away as Y/N sighs, sitting down while Kaede hugs him. He even reaches behind to rub her horns, a strange sound vibrating from her mouth as she melts to his touch.
Later
Shoka:...My mom one day....she was making tea and she looked at me.
Shoka was comfortable enough to talk to Y/N about her story as Shouko sat besides them also listening.
Shoka: I don't know but....I felt like she hated my left side and.....yeah. She poured the tea all over my face.
Shouko: O-Oh.....sorry.....
Shoka: Many years of abuse....and she went insane. She tried to freeze my face-
Y/N: Yeah there's no way you're supposed to put ice over a direct wound.
Shoka: I know...that's how I got my scar I guess........
Shouko: You don habe a gool famile but you habe uz.
Shoka: *smile* I know....this is the most comfortable I've ever felt in so long......
Y/N: You're planning on going to UA soon? It's in 10 months.
Shoka: I want to but....my fathe-
Y/N: *scoff* Then I'll go to court with him. You don't know the countless connections I have. I can even expose him as an abuser in public.
Shoka: DO IT!
Y/N: *startled* Easy there...not now though. We need to wait.
Shoka had stars in her eyes as she was in Y/N's face, talking at the speed of light.
Shoka: What's the evidence? I can give testimony. What kind of lawyers do you have? Can you get me papers?
Y/N stood there, sweating and answering her as best he could as Shouko held his hand.
Shouko: 'His touch is gentle.......it's warm...smooth....comfortable...'
Later
Y/N: *sigh* 'This is comfortable......'
He was sitting in the bathtub, letting himself soak into the water. Alone and happy, he lays down, letting his head rest against the edge as he sighs.
Y/N: 'Now-'
*SCRATCH*
The shower curtains were pulled open, revealing Mayu and Kaede who were naked.
Y/N: AYO!
Kaede: Y/N can we join in?
She didn't notice Mayu who was trembling while clinging onto her as they went into the bathtub and sat down.
Kaede: Shampoo?
Y/N reaches besides him, grabbing the shampoo bottle and squirts it onto her hand as she begins to rub Mayu's hair. He also squirts some shampoo onto his hand before rubbing Kaede's hair.
Y/N: This good enough?
Kaede: *rub* Keep going.
Mayu: W-Why are we bathing together?
Y/N: Why not?
After washing each other's hair, Y/N reaches out for his soap only for Mayu to grab it before turning to him nervously.
Mayu: C-Can I wash your hair?
Y/N: Eh go ahead. I don't mind.
She nods her head before reaching out, grabbing a mat of his hair. Her mouth twists into an o as he felt his surprisingly silky hair as she scrubs it.
Mayu: 'H-He's so nice to me...he doesn't even look at my body like the others...his hair is smooth.....'
Kaede watches, seeing her scrub his hair with eagerness as he sat there.
Y/N: 'WHY AM I BATHING NAKED WITH THEM?!'
Later
*BOOM*
Thunder flashes through the window as Rover and Tippy huddles against Y/N on his bed.
Y/N: *yawn* I'm fine with y'all sleeping next to me...just don't sit on my face or whatever.
Rover snorts before resting his head on his lower legs while Tippy laid on Rover's head.
*THUD*
The door suddenly slams open, revealing Mayu who was shaking.
Y/N: Huh....you scared?
She runs onto the bed, huddled into a ball as she pulls the blankets over her. Y/N looked at her head as she was shaking....before he reaches out.
Y/N: Come here....
She nervously scooches forward to him before he wraps an arm around her shaking body. She tenses up only for him to pat her head and bring her close to him, close enough so that they were cuddling.
Y/N: Better?
Mayu: B-Better....
*THUD*
The door opens again revealing all the girls as they yawn.
Shoka: *yawn* Can I sleep here?
Y/N: Huh?
Shouko: It's too loun.
Kaede: Y-You don't mind right?
Y/N:.....'Is this a dream come true?' Alright get I-
They all hop onto the bed with Yuzuru hugging Rover and all the girls cuddling with Y/N.
Y/N: *pat* Sleep tight.
They all murmur under their breaths as their bodies pressed against his, melting to his touch as they all slept. Meanwhile Mayu laid there, sandwiched between Y/N and Shouko as she wraps her arms around him.
Mayu: Mmmmm....
Shouko: Seep well Mayu.
Her hand pats her head, seeing her so relaxed as she slumps forward, sleeping peacefully. And then she slept, enjoying the comfort of everyone despite the sounds of thunder flashing.
Y/N: 'The hangout is coming up soon....'
