12: 𝑆𝑤𝑒𝑒𝑡... 𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑒 𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑠

A/N: We all know the situation with Eri and Overhaul. So it goes without saying the next chapters continuously talk about a child being mistreated.

...

They were told not to tell anyone of her quirk. Especially not this new ability. Barely anyone knew it. Not even her classmates, at least not most of them.

Kira sat in the dark. In a room with only Nighteye and Aizawa. Knowing what was about to happen was going to be hard for her. They decided it would be best if there were as little people as possible here.

Nighteye opened a case. The fragmented pieces of a small red bullet were inside. It was broken into about ten tiny pieces. Kira only needed one at a time.

The bullets were now harmless, but still contained blood. Making it perfect for Kira's quirk.

"Are you certain this will work?" Nighteye asked. Placing them in the table infront of Kira. "Otherwise you'll be eating evidence."

"Not eating." Aizawa said, glancing over. "Just hold it in your mouth, so if something happens you don't get stuck." He advised.

Kira nodded. "Okay." She said. Any confidence she'd had yesterday was faded away. She was incredibly nervous now.

What if it didn't work?

What if she was too far away. What if she had a mind that Kira just couldn't connect with?

What if she was dead?

The last part stung the back of Kira's mind. It hid there and smoldered in her subconscious. What if she did this, and felt nothing? Absolutely nothing. What if the girl didn't exist any longer.

What would be worse? Kira having to see and feel her pain? Or Kira unable to see anything at all?

What if Eri accidentally revealed their communication? Would they hurt her? Hide her? Sedate her so she couldn't think at all?

There were so many risks.

"You can still back out." Aizawa said. "I'm all for saving the kid... But this could genuinely hurt you Kira."

"You know I can't. Not when I know I can help her." Kira said, shaking her head.

She reached over and took a piece in her hand. It was one of the biggest, the size of a small grain of rice. It felt hard, plastic. It wasn't fully blood, it was much more than that. Kira ignored the fact that she was about to put something filled with chemicals and different materials in her mouth. It was harmless now, quirk wise. But still kinda a gross concept.

She placed it on her tongue and closed her mouth. Taking a deep breath. She closed and then opened her eyes, they turned red.
"Give me a second, it takes a minute to find them if they're far away." She told the two men.

Kira closed her eyes. She saw red light reflected off of her eyelids. She pulled on her headphones, trying to block Aizawa and Nighteye out. So she could focus.

She heard nothing. The hairs on her neck rose in fear as she waited. For anything.

Other than the two pros she heard silence. Nothing. She clinched her jaw, begging for a single peep.

Then she heard it.

Thump

A noise beating in her ears.

Thump thump.

Small but strong, it got louder and louder. Quicker and stronger.

ThumpThump ThumpThump ThumpThump!
