Dabi [POV]

I got up stuffing my hands in my pockets as I walked over to the bar.  Kurogiri was standing his hands crossed in front of his chest

"What's up?" I asked causally not a hint of fear in my voice

"Did you do this?" He asked his voice harsh

"Do what?" I raised an eyebrow, Kurogiri gestured to the couch.  I walked more into the room to see the couch.  Shigaraki was unconscious on the couch covered in burns and scratches

"What would make you think I did this?" I asked

"He's covered in burns and you can burn things" Toga exclaimed jumping up from behind Kurogiri

"That doesn't mean anything" I insisted "I've been in my room this whole time anyways" I was starting to get annoyed, if you're going to blame me at least blame me for something reasonable, not burning the mophead

"What even happened?" I asked crossing my arms in front of my chest

"I don't know when he left but he just came back covered in burns and nearly unconscious then he passed out on the couch didn't say anything, didn't complain that it hurt or anything like he usually would" Kurogiri explained

"So how could I have done it like I said I've been in my room all morning" I insisted

"I don't know, if Tomura somehow managed to get out without me noticing, you surly could have"

"You're really going to blame me for this, why don't when he wakes up you ask him" I turned around going to walk back to my room.  He didn't stop me and I didn't hear him for a while.  I sat on my bed playing with my flames, there was nothing else to do.  It was a slow day today, every day was slow and boring while Shigaraki worked trying to think of a plan or something

"Dabi get back in here" Kurogiri called again, I sighed standing up and going into the room

"What now?" I asked slightly irritated

"You smell like smoke" He commented as I came into the room

"Oh I wonder why" I rolled my eyes flames bursting from my outstretched palm, I made sure to control it so it didn't get out of control.

"Why the [Frick] are you in here?" Shigaraki snapped sitting up now

"Oh goodie Prince Charming is awake" I jeered

"Tomura care to explain why you're covered in burns?" Kurogiri crossed his arms in front of his chest

"No, I went out for fresh air and came back that's all" He started to get up

"No, stay here, Dabi go get the first aid kit" Kurogiri instructed, I sighed walking down the hallway to the bathroom.  I pulled the first aid kit out from under the sink and went back

"Who gave you these burns" Kurogiri interrogated

"None of your business" He didn't seem to react to any of the pains from the burns though by the looks of it they looked like they hurt and I know a few things about burns

"Why won't you say?" I asked

"[Frick] off" He shouted at me

"Jesus fine okay" I put my arms above my head and walked out, not to my room but out of the bar in general.  I sighed going around to the alleyway next to the bar.  There was a small window that led to Shigaraki's room.  It was slightly ajar.  Though it seemed to be too small to climb through but Shigaraki was much smaller than a normal man his age.  He would probably be able to get through.  I continued to investigate.  There was a pack of matches on the floor, some of them were spilled out and a few of them were even used.  I could still smell smoke.  Looking around there didn't seem to be any tracks from anyone else that could have done this.  Did he do this to himself?  I asked myself.  There was an empty bottle of alcohol smashed against the wall the label was torn off but by the looks of it, it was liquor.  Shigaraki could have easily defended himself against someone, he had strong quirk and if they didn't know about it, it would be even better in his favor.  There didn't seem to be a sign of struggle either.  I walked back around to the front coming in calmly

"Where did you go?" Kurogiri asked

"The dumb[Beep] did it himself" I exclaimed

"What are you on about" Kurogiri asked

"In the alleyway, a box of matches, a broken bottle of liquor, only one pair of tracks and no sign of struggle" I listed off, Kurogiri didn't say anything but opened a warp gate and disappeared.  He came back a few minutes later.

"Tomura did you do this to yourself?" He asked not even fully stepping through the warp gate

"No" he snapped a little too quickly

"Tomura" Kurogiri started

"Why on earth would I do this myself?" He interrupted

"Then who did it?" Kurogiri asked calmly, Shigaraki was backed into a corner but now he didn't respond.  Shigaraki shoot up wincing slightly.  He walked out of the room to his bedroom slamming the door.  I glanced over a pule of dust on the floor.  He disintegrated his door knob.

"That's the third time this month" Kurogiri exclaimed clearly frustrated "It's not even an accident anymore"

"how suspicious" I muttered walking down the hallway to my room shutting the door behind me.
