Birds Of A Feather

Bakugo

...

Bakugo let out an audible groan as he searched online to figure out where izuku could've went.

"My Google searches don't even make sense anymore.
"How do I find my childhood friend?" That won't help me.

Ugh ..

Considering Deku has been in hiding for 2 weeks before he even revealed himself...
Finding him is near impossible.

But he has Hawks.

And everyone is desperately searching for Hawks.

So I'm going to join in on that search..."
Bakugo threw this bag around his back and walked downstairs to leave the house.

"Where do you think you're going...??!"
A feminine voice from behind shouted.
Katsuki froze as he turned around to face his concerned mother who had been standing in the hall looking at old pictures.

"To...uh...-"

"Have you been watching the news at all...?!
Villains from all around are terrorizing Japan! And there are violent protests going on!
If you go out there you don't know what could happen...

All because of that... Brat...

I knew Izuku was a bit suspicious at a kid... But to go to this length!?"
She yelled in utter annoyance.

"Hey-! Erm.."
Katsuki found himself at a loss for words, he had been going to defend izuku but...
What he had done was wrong... He had done something utterly unforgivable.

He couldn't defend him.

"Don't hey me.
I'm right here, you have a horrible taste in picking out friends!"

"No I don't."

"Then how come your 1 and only friend went out and became a super villain???"

"I don't know???"

"Are you going to defend him?!"

"Hell no...
I just want to know why."

"Why what...?"

"There's a lot."

"You're not leaving the house Katsuki."

"But I need to go assist in the search"

"No you do not.
The only thing you need to help search for is a new house with me."

"...what...?"
Katsuki froze as he turned completely to face his mother.
What had she been implying...?

"Katsuki...
Japan isn't a stable place to live anymore.
With the hero commission gone, heroes aren't being paid.
They may still have some motivation to save people now cause they still have money.
But once it runs out they'll be the ones in hiding.

With all might gone...
Endeavor gone...
And now Hawks gone.

It's only a matter of time until the country collapses.
Villains and thugs all around are taking this as an opportunity to seize power.

It won't be long until the government crashes as well.

We have more than enough money to run away to any country.
I wouldn't want to be any place near Japan.

Since me and your dad are fashion designers, we're thinking of moving to France.
Maybe the US."
Mitsuki explained.

Katsuki stood there a bit stunned, this meant leaving everything behind...

"France...??
The US...???

Don't you realize how far that is...?! I still want to be a hero!?
You can't do this-"
