Exploding Through Dimensions

Chapter 17: Tokyo Ghoul

Groaning he briefly sniffed the air before turning left instead, deciding it was best if he kept an eye out since those five clearly didn't know their way around here...otherwise Kimi might never forgive him.

"There's no place like home! There's no place like home!" Kaminari continued to whimper while running next to them. None of them daring to look back.

"Run! Run like there's a hot guy in front of you and a creepy one behind you..." Mina tried to make her feet run faster as the tears continued to drip from her eyes, little did she know that in this case it was a ghoul.

Uraraka's legs were burning from how fast they ran. Her breath constantly picking up after hearing another set of footsteps behind them after they raced down the street. Anytime Bakugos hand tighten on her wrist was all she could do to remind herself to keep running whenever he felt her slowing down.

He knew she was still in shock about what she saw, lord knows what else she must've seen before they got there, counting themselves lucky to even make it out of there alive.

Snapping her eyes shut she quickly yanked her wrist free as the memories became too much. The ongoing crunching of skin being pulled had her desperately wobbling to the wall closet to her to steady herself.

"We have to keep moving!" Bakugo began to argue but stopped when he saw the clear terror in her eyes. "Uraraka...you ok?" When all she did was shake her head, he frustratingly ran his hands through his spiky hair. "Shit."

"What the hell was that?!" Kirishima panted leaning on his knees to catch his breath while the others did the same.

"I don't know."

"Was he...was he...?" Unable to finish that sentence, Mina covered her mouth finding it hard to keep everything down a second before hearing Kaminari emptying his stomach.

Bakugo felt the burning in the back of his own throat as his stomach clenched threatening to do the same, but made an effort to keep it in. They had to keep a level head and think about what to do next if they were to survive.

Walking over to Uraraka he apprehensively raised his hand over her back, not entirely sure what he should do. He knew what he wanted to do, wanted to comfort her and make sure she was ok, but he wasn't sure exactly how. Not now, not after the look of hurt and disappointment that still remained embedded in his head after their talk in the infirmary.

Would she even let him? Did she even want him near her? Or would she tell him to get lost the way she should?

Hovering his hand over her back he slowly curled it until he defeatedly put it back down. "Uraraka..."

"I'm fine." She panted as if she was trying to hold in her own panic. "I just need a minute."

When he saw her close her eyes and turn away it took everything he had to do the same.

"Zombies maybe?" Kirishima asked while making sure Kaminari was ok who was still clutching his stomach and now dry heaving.

"I don't think so." Bakugo responded, frowning at the place they had stopped in front of. It was the same place Uraraka had wanted to stop by for directions earlier and he decided that perhaps this would be the best place to catch their breath in case they were still being followed. "Let's just lay low for now."

Nodding Uraraka was the first to push off the wall as the others followed. Not entirely sure what to expect in this strange world had them all silently debating on who would go in first, when Bakugo grew inpatient and yanked the door wide open the way he usually did, which in turn made all eyes turn to them.
