Ch 4-
When Izuku and Katsuki entered the infirmary the next time, Harry was sitting on his bed while talking to Nezu but at the same time keeping a cautious eye on Recovery Girl as she bandaged his arms. (He didn't really trust any doctors/nurses except Madame Pomphrey.) He turned his head at the door when he heard it open.
Midoriya and Bakugou entered, covered in bruises and some broken bones. They were panting, like they had just run the whole way here.
"Merlin! What happened to you guys?!" he asked frantically as he tried to get off the hospital to meet his cousin and friend. He was speaking Japanese now, conversing easier now that he wasn't in a state of panic.
"Stay still!" Recovery Girl ordered. Harry complied, but kept sending the duo worried glances.
"Don't worry Harry, this amount of injuries is normal!" Izuku said, trying to soothe the boy's worries. But it had the opposite effect, because he started fretting out even more.
"N-normal?! How is this amount of injuries normal! You two literally have bruises covering your body!" The blond of the group gave Harry an unamused look.
"Yeah, and getting bit by a poisonous snake, fighting with dragons and mermaids are normal? Have you seen yourself?"
Harry had a pink blush adorning his features.
"Getting bit by a poisonous snake? Where, young man? And how long ago?" Nezu asked. Harry pointed to his right arm near the elbow, where a star-shaped scar laid.
"There. It was an enormous snake, about 60? feet long. Happened in my second year, so four years ago."
"Where on earth..." but the nurse just shook her head and walked away to the duo.
"Yeah...I see what you mean."
Just then, the door opened. Harry immediately changed his appearance. It was unknown to many people, but Harry was a metamorphmagus. He discovered it around Christmas last year. It was a shock when he suddenly started looking like a male version of Hermione. Though the Weasleys, Hermione, Sirius, Remus, and even Hedwig thought it was hilarious. With the help of Tonks, he managed to get the basics of his abilities. So whenever he went out, he changed himself to have light brown hair and hazel eyes. His scar was moved to his foot, so nobody would realize it's him. (Nobody told Dumbledore, for some reason. And actually, Harry preferred that way. He even asked all who knew to keep it a secret and tell no one,even Dumbledore.)
That's exactly what he changed into. It had become an instinct around strangers, and so it kicked in right now. He didn't know who was going to enter from that door, but he didn't want any unnecessary attention. He opened his eyes to look at the newcomers.
It was the rest of class 2-A, coming to get themselves healed up. Some had minor injuries, while others looked worse. But they were all in good moods, chatting happily with each other. Luckily, they ignored him and sat down on some beds, waiting for Recovery Girl. She did come, whacking some of their heads for being careless and getting so many injuries again. Halfway through, Recovery Girl had to stop and rest.
"Seriously, what were you children doing that caused so many injuries?!" she exclaimed.
Some people looked sheepish and apologetic.
"Sorry Recovery Girl... we were sparring today," Mina said.
"Midoriya and Bakugou went ballistic today, leading to so many injuries on themselves and us," Sero added. Harry shot the two a glare, which they ignored.
"If those two were villains..." Kaminari shuddered at the thought. Many people shuddered with him. Bakugou scoffed.
"As if we would ever be lowly villains like them! Get your facts right!" Everyone sweatdropped at the tone of his voice. While some people checked over the Wonder Duo, the rest hung around, waiting for Recovery Girl to regain her energy.
"Oh- Hey there!" Kirishima had finally noticed him. "Who are you?"
"I- um-" Harry stammered.
"He is a cousin of someone going to this school." In stepped Aizawa, looking as tired as ever. Harry could never be more grateful to him. He didn't even bat an eye at the unfamiliar face.
"Oh, that's nice! I'm Ejiro Kirishima. What's your name?"
"Evan Lames." Since he was still in his disguise, he went with the fake name he had created for himself. Evan came from his mother's last name, Evans, while Lames came from the name the Marauders had given his parents: Lily + James = Lames.
"Nice to meet you!"
"You don't seem to be from here," Todoroki commented. Harry nervously laughed.
"I-I'm from England, actually."
"Really! That's cool, bro!" Kaminari exclaimed. Sounds of agreement echoed throughout the room. They started throwing questions on him, talking all at once.
"What's it like there?"
"Where are you from?"
"What's your quirk?"
"Have you been to any famous places?"
"How are you speaking perfect Japanese?"
"Where do you study?"
"Why are you in the infirmary?"
"Who's your cousin?"
"Are there any hot chicks there?"
"Are you dating anyone?"
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Bakugou screamed. They were surrounding the poor boy, giving him any space to breathe properly. Aizawa extended his scarf just as he screamed, noticing the panicked look on Harry's face and pulling them all away from him.
"2-A," he started sternly. "You know better than to gang up on someone like that. Detention for all of you. Apologize." There were mummers of apologies all around the room.
"It's alright," Harry smiled awkwardly. "Really. I'm pretty used to it."
Izuku and Katsuki gave him exasperated looks, while Aizawa raised an eyebrow.
"If you don't mind, Evan, would you like to join us for our next class?"
If Harry was surprised by the question, he didn't show it. But before answering, he looked at the clock that was hung up on a wall.
"I appreciate the offer, but I need to go back soon." He sent everyone a sheepish look. Aizawa gave him a sharp look.
"Well surely you can stay for a couple more minutes," Izuku asked sweetly, his hardened eyes betraying his true emotions. Harry gave him a sad, meaningful look.
"Nope. My relatives want me back soon. The time zone over there is different, so I will need to leave soon if I can reach there on time."
Aizawa sighed.
"Alright. Class, since you're all done healing, go to your next class. Midoriya and Bakugou, I need to speak to you, so stay here." Izuku and Katsuki nodded, while the rest of the class left for their homeroom, waiting for Aizawa and All Might to come and start their lesson.
As soon as the class left, Aizawa turned to Harry.
"You are not going back there."
"W-what?" Harry stuttered.
"You are not allowed to go back to your relatives- if I can even call them that."
"B-but I have to! If I don't start cooking for them at 6 o'clock, then I'll never get the rest of my chores done! Even though Dudley, my other cousin, helps me secretly, there's still too much to do!"
"How has no one caught the signs of what your relatives are doing?! Why haven't you told anyone else?"
"Don't you think I have!" he exploded. "Every year at the school I study, I beg the headmaster to not let me back! Every. Single. Year. For the past 5 years. I tell him I can stay anywhere else, with my friends, with my godfather, but he's out of the picture now, at a well known inn, anywhere! I even showed him my scars! But he doesn't listen! He thinks I am exaggerating and they really do love me!" He scoffed. "As if! The only thing they love is Dudley and normal things, which doesn't include me or Izu. But the only reason they deal with the greenettes is because Aunty Inko is the only sister she has left!
And I can't come and stay here with them for long because of the fucking blood protection that Dumbles rants about. To protect me from the ones after me. But how the hell are they of any use if I'm not protected from the inside! I've been bloody raped! BY MY OWN UNCLE! I am a freak to them, but apparently they are the only things able to protect me! How the hell does it make any sense!
And any other people I told can't do anything, because Dumbles had too much power over everyone! And with all of the chaos that's going on, we have more important things to worry about!"
He was panting at the end of his rant. Tears were streaming down his face and he was surrounded by Izuku and Katsuki who were lightly hugging him, giving him support. Everyone in the room was silent. Aizawa had turned his face away so nobody could see his eyes. Recovery Girl was silently crying, and Nezu had a stone face. One could only guess what he was planning.
Harry sighed, and wiped his tears. His expression changed from crying to a blank face. Even the most experienced people could not tell he was bawling before.
"I apologize for being so impolite. I came to your school without your permission, used your medical supplies, and shouted at you because of my problems. I apologize for my foul language. I am grateful for the hospitality, but it is time for me to leave." He turned to the duo, giving them a hug and saying goodbyes. He then gave everyone a nod, who nodded in return. Then he took a deep breath and closed his eyes. With a pop, he disappeared.
Aizawa rubbed his face with his hands and groaned. He turned around to face the door.
"I see what you meant that day, Midoriya. I understand who the walrus and the old man are now. I have a few tips, if you want." He didn't elaborate. "You two can head to your class now." When they left, Aizawa stopped before leaving.
"Nezu, I am joining in whatever you are planning."
Nezu nodded.
"I expect nothing else."
