"Cat"
Aizawa and Midoriya both said in unison as they lifted her up with their telekinesis.
"She looks like my cat from that one century where I owned several land mines."
Midoriya commented as he flipped her collar around.
"Sapphire/fluffy.
Dimension traveler.
Hey she even has the same name.
I'm adopting her now"
Midoriya said as he grabbed the cat with his hands. She looked to be a long haired Siamese with sapphire like eyes.
"Hey no fair"
Aizawa said as he also wanted the cat.
"She'll be living in my house.
You drop by like 24/7.
Don't act as if you wont see her."
"Where are you going to get her supplies?"
"The convenience store?"
"It was blown up"
"Not all of them."
"They're closed because of what we've done"
"Then what do I do...?"
"Give her to me"
"How would that be of any use?"
"I already have cats."
"Then you shouldn't be stingy, give me some supplies"
"Why should I?"
Midoriya pinched the bridge of his nose, "fine, simple solution.
I'll steal"
"Hey wai-"
Though before Aizawa could stop him, Midoriya teleported away with the cat.
Midoriya quickly stole all the supplies he knew he'd need to have before teleporting to his house and crashing on the floor.
The crash was soon to kick in, he could feel its incoming presence.
He set up everything she'd need and then crashed onto his bed.

"Breaking news.
The Blood Reaper strikes again...
Devastation all over Japan...
Last night at around 12am chaos and destruction began everywhere.
With over one thousand people having been infected, they were causing problems in groups!
Chants of vile words were heard before it took place.
Words like "murder", "arson" , "explosion" could be heard chanted as they happened.
Because of their Great numbers, heroes all around struggled.
Infact, they needed direct help from the commission to put a stop to them.
Amongst the infected were also pro heroes, including pro hero Endeavor...
There is no known cure and with a time limit of just 2 weeks many doctors have been putting their first foot forward to try and save him.
However...
With how things are looking, his life expectancy isn't very high...
Many have already begun to write their farewell cards to him.
Because the mindless infected become extremely violent, his quirk had to be cancelled and he had to be locked up in a cell because of how dangerous he's become.
Many areas around Japan have been shut off due to the instability that has come about as heroes work hard to try and fix everything and clean up the mess the Blood Reaper has left behind.
We questioned some of the heroes on the scene.
Pro hero woods reports that "endeavor was fine up until he flew up to attack someone he saw in the sky"
He then said
"He disappeared for a bit.
And then when he came back he was infected".
Because of this, officials suspect that he had a direct encounter with the Blood Reaper and are trying to get answers on how they look.
But because of endeavor's condition, he hasn't been replying.
His family has been tr-"
Bakugo shut the TV off as he stared at his table In defeat.
Silent tears streamed down his pain stricken face as he walked around alone in his home.
"...that bastard blood reaper...
...dad...
...
I will take you down blood reaper...
And get my dad's vengeance..."
Bakugo said through a clenched jaw as he stormed up to his room.
Amongst the infected, Masaru Bakugo, also known as Katsuki's father, was also infected.
He got into half decent clothes and ran out to Midoriya's home.
There was something he had to know.
Meanwhile, Midoriya was gracefully asleep in his bed. It was the best way to avoid the crash symptoms and a nice way to relax.
However, he was suddenly woken up with loud banging on his door.
He let out an audible groan as he forced himself out of bed.
He could feel every fiber ache with every muscle movement.
He shapeshifted as he walked down his stairs and slowly opened up his door.
"Hello...?"
He called out as he squinted his eyes.
It was bright outside and he had just freshly woken up.
"Deku..."
Midoriya glanced at him properly.
His eyes were bloodshot red, his hair was an obvious mess, he had large eye bags, and overall he looked horrible.
"...what happened to you..???"
Midoriya asked as he opened up the door wider.
He properly opened his eyes and looked at Bakugo who looked to be struggling with his words.
"...my father...
Blood Reaper...
Infection..."
He couldn't say them without tearing up, he practically choked on each word.
Midoriya sighed, "I'll probably regret this later but it'll be out of character if I don't do this"
"Come inside.."
He welcomed Bakugo in.
Bakugo stepped inside as Midoriya shut the door behind him and guided him to the living room.
"What happened...?"
Midoriya asked once more, acting out his concern.
Bakugo took a deep breath in and sighed.
"...my father...
He was amongst the infected..."
Midoriya's eyes widened, genuinely.
"When did I infect his dad...???
I mean.
I was just blindly going around scratching whoever I saw.
...
And there were thousands of people.
What horrible luck he has."
"...yeah...
And...
There isn't a cure for it..."
Tears stung at bakugo's eyes as he struggled with his words.
"...I heard that whenever they're not doing anything violent that they're in pain...
And that the violence is what relieves them...
So now not only is he going to die in 2 weeks...
But..."
A couple tears slid down his face as he hid his face in his hands.
"He'll be in pain the whole time...
And there's nothing we can do...!"
He looked up at Midoriya, there was an obvious enraged look in his eyes.
"The blood Reaper...
I have to take them down!
I can't let this slide!
My dad didn't deserve this!?
That blood reaping bastard!
I'll kill them!"
He screamed as explosions made their way out of his hands.
Midoriya sighed, "what an ear sore.
I really had to cause my own problems. Should I kill him now? He has type A blood, it's not all too bad.
The class is already mourning regardless..."
"Deku.
I need you to help me...
Have you made your decision?"
Bakugo asked, a bit of desperation in his eyes.
"If I say yes I'll have to set up the cameras for him...
If I say no I wouldn't have to but it'd be odd.
He's expecting me to say yes.
Should I say yes and then kill him later?
Or just say no and get him to leave me alone..
Hm.
He might become my enemy if I say no.
An inclass enemy is annoying, whether he's weak or not.
This would be the perfect opportunity to lose him though.
Oh.
Perfect.
I'll say No, he'll leave me alone, and if he becomes an enemy I'll kill him.
It's a win win situation."
Midoriya held back a grin as he cleared his throat.
"Well...?"
Bakugo asked once more.
"...sorry Bakugo...
I understand that you're upset cause of your dad...
But I don't want to get involved with the blood reaper...
Especially with my mom in the hospital..."
Midoriya said as he looked away, perfecting his pitiful act.
"...what?"
Bakugo said, absolutely crushed.
"I'm sorry...
But no"
"Are you serious...?"
"...yes"
"I can't believe you...
We're training to be heroes...!
This is the least we could do!?"
He stood up, enraged.
"Bak-"
"Don't talk to me...
I'm still going through with the plan! And if you try to stop me you'll just see what happens"
He stormed out the house, slamming the door shut.
Midoriya sighed as he released himself from his shapeshift, "so dramatic.
But finally...
Now I won't have to deal with him"
He grinned as he walked back up his stairs and went straight back to sleep.
"That Deku...
How could he...!?
...why wouldn't he help...?!
He wouldn't even get hurt!
That bastard..."
_________________________________________
When Monday came about, the atmosphere in the class was extremely tense.
Midoriya on the other hand was relaxed and happy, he was able to spend the weekend asleep in peace with his newly adopted cat as everyone else cleaned up after the mess he made.
However, he couldn't show people that.
So he was shapeshifted to look as sad and miserable as everyone else in his class.
"Todoroki..."
Kirishima began as he walked over to his desk.
He wasn't the only one crowding him, half the class had been circling him.
"...I'm sorry about your father...
Did doctors find anything they could do yet...?"
Kirishima asked as he patted his shoulder.
"...it's useless.
The thing infected his entire brain, heart, and nervous system...
The only way it could be cured is if they're all removed.
He obviously can't live without those and even if they're miraculously replaced he'll still catch the disease...
They brought all the doctors in Japan...
They even flew one out from China...
There's no cure."
He forced out.
"that's bad...
Is your family doing okay...?"
"Fuyumi and natsu are both adults...
But father was the one who brought us money.
We're lucky that he was a pro hero.
We have enough money to survive on for the rest of our lives and we also have commission checks that come in because he worked for them...
So now it's only us 3"
He explained with a sad sigh.
"...I'm sorry to ask but what about your mom...?
You told us stories about her..."
"Oh...
Er...
...I can't say..."
He said as he became visibly uncomfortable.
"Sorry for asking, we didn't know it was a sensitive subject..."
Bakugo walked into class, he looked horrible.
His hair was still an absolute mess and it was evident on his face that he had been grieving for quite a while.
Midoriya glanced at him but it was obvious that Bakugo didn't even want to look at him.
He sat down immediately and kept his back turned towards him.
Midoriya had to hold back a grin, "finally.
Inner peace"
Shortly Aizawa also arrived and everyone was forced to sit down in their seats.
"Bakugo isn't bothering you...?"
"Yep, it's amazing.
We got into a small dispute. Now I get inner peace. Win win situation."
"What was it about?"
"I'll explain in full details later.
Are you going to be giving out a sappy speech?"
"Not a speech but I have to say a couple words in enlightenment of the situation."
"Ew"
"Yeah yeah"
Aizawa cleared his throat, "hello class."
There wasn't any response, they only silently stared.
"I understand many of you are upset about the incident that happened Friday night.
Some of you lost loved ones and it's difficult for you to even show up to class today.
So...
I will be allowing you all to talk amongst yourselves for the class period.
Talking is the best way to release built up stress.
There's no assignment this week, just feel better"
Aizawa sighed as he sat down at his desk and allowed for them to discuss amongst themselves.
"...hey Bakugo...
You alright?"
Kaminari asked as he was one of the few that noticied his horrible state.
Bakugo lifted up his head and turned to face Kaminari, the class looked back at Bakugo and all collectively gasped.
"Bakugo what happened...!?"
"You good??"
Bakugo shook his head, "...that bastard reaper infected and basically killed my dad"
He hissed, explosions popped out of his hands as he unintentionally glared at them all.
"What?!"
The class said in unison.
"I'm gonna kill them, as soon as I find them they'll beg for my mercy"
Bakugo continued.
"The same thing happened to Todoroki...!"
Bakugo turned around to face Todoroki, ignoring Midoriya who was directly behind him.
"You.
Icy hot."
He paused as he gathered his attention.
"...what?"
"Let's kill that bloody bastard"
