● Part Fourteen ●
POV Ochako Uraraka
We couldn't get in the meeting room sooner. Deku and I were there in a couple of seconds. The rest was already there, so we must have been the last ones to have heard the news. A kid.. A kid who escaped? How? Little did I know the answer to that would be given soon.
We sat down on a few chairs, and it was only at that moment that I realized the kid was in the room with us. Todoroki was there with him, and Aizawa was close too. So Todoroki must have ran into the kid. Maybe he went back to check out the place where the guy and the man disappeared..
Thirteen was with us in the room, making sure no one would cause a chaos. I tried to take a better look at the kid. It seemed like a boy. Light-blonde hair, which was very dirty and seemed wet. His skin was pale, but also covered in dirt. The kid seemed panicked. He was panting, but besides that he didn't move a muscle.
In a short amount of time everyone was silent and Thirteen stepped forward. "Thank you all for being here so quickly. This is a small meetup, to let you students know what we know now. Soon there will be a big meeting with everyone involved. Then we'll make plans for our approach". Thirteen looked around the room and sighed.
"First of all, we got some information from the kid, which I would like to share with you".
Aizawa took the kid outside in the meantime, probably to take him to a safe place, to wash him and take care of him. Thirteen continued when the kid was gone.
"This kid came out of an alleyway, all wet. He was in a real panick. And he kept rambling to Todoroki. We've picked up this much information: The kid escaped from what he mentioned as 'bad people'. He came out of the sewers. The security was really bad, but thanks to his camouflage quirk he managed to escape. He also said he was there with a lot of other kids, some..".
Thirteen stopped there. He looked at all of us individually. I swallowed, scared for what would come. Instinctively, I grabbed Deku's hand. What I've been wanting to do all those times I felt this tense, finally didn't feel awkward now. It felt natural. Deku squeezed my hand softly, but I kept my eyes on Thirteen.
"Some of the kids were..not alive anymore", he finally revealed sadly. He was definitely trying to avoid the word 'dead' there. But it was true. Some of the kids were dead. "The kid didn't say anything about what the villains were doing to the children, but we did find two small wounds on his wrist, which tells us that he has probably been attatched to an IV. For what purpose, we don't know. What we do know, is that the kids that were in the sewers with the little boy all had special, powerfull quirks".
That's where Thirteen ends his story. Everyone is silent. And all I can think of are the dead kids. Some parents, who have been waiting for their kids to return, are going to be so hurt. I still held Izuku's hand. And that's all I needed right now. I needed that. And only that. Because imagining what was going to happen really soon took it's toll on me. I wanted Deku. Now that would be the only thing I wanted..
