Not as planned 1 - Katsuki Bakugo von Puraido (A/B/O Verse) ================================================================================ Kapitel 71: ------------ The night for the alphas was horrific. Izuku had nightmares about Kairi falling down to the ground. The more dead than alive look on her face, her grinning with the blood stained teeth, all the blood in general. He heard sniffling next to him and he sat up in bed. “Eijiro?” He murmured. “Yeah?” the other alpha mumbled. “Bad dream?” “Yep. The worst to be honest.” Eijiro’s voice was hoarse. “Same … hey, wanna get up? It feels so suffocating in here.” “Sure, let’s go.” Still sniffling, Eijiro got up. Both alphas put some fresh cloths on and left the cabin. It was still very early in the morning, but after seven since the others were already training. They stayed far away from the betas and omegas, to keep them save. They walked through the forest and stopped when they were a few feet away from the camp. Eijiro sat down on an overturned tree trunk. “God, I feel so terrible, what have we done?” Eijiro couldn’t hold his tears any longer. “I know she said she will be fine, but to know that we nearly killed someone … Getting told that we are dangerous and actually seeing it …” His voice died. “This is so unmanly …” Izuku squatted in front of him, gripping his hand. “I know how you feel. Just the imagination of what we could have done to Kacchan and the others while we turned feral for the first time …” Eijiro nodded. “Yes, that kept me awake half of the night. They will never be save when we are like this … What if we can’t stop? We all thought that someone would stop us most likely but … but oh god … they can’t!” Deku moved next to Eijiro on the log and he put an arm around his fellow alpha. The redhead was shaking so much. They suddenly heard steps and immediately they were on high alert. Tenya walked through the trees towards them. He had dark circles under his eyes. “Can’t sleep either?” he murmured. They relaxed a little and shook their heads. “Nope” they said in unison. “To think that … something like this could have happened in Hosu …” he reminisced. “My hands were full of her blood … And if she hadn’t challenged me in that moment … I would have …” he choked on his words. “We all would have killed her probably …” Eijiro muttered, his head was low, he pressed his knuckles against his forehead. “Did she come back, yet?” Tenya asked after a while. “No, not that I know of.” Izuku sniffled. His face was tearstained too. He wanted to check with his alpha senses, but he was too afraid to go into this mode again. She wasn’t here to stop him after all. “I wonder where she is now. Is she still … dead?” Tenya wondered. “I don’t think so. I heard her screaming last night, so she is probably alive again …” Izuku explained. “I’m glad …” Eijiro said. The three of them looked up, when they heard steps. It was Shoto. “Mr. Aizawa wants me to gather the alphas” he mumbled. His voice was husky and his eyes were red and puffy as well. “Yeah, we’re coming.” Tenya answered and together they made their way back. With hanging heads they walked over to the others. Aizawa looked at them with a quizzical look. He didn’t know what went down last night. “Why are you not training with Kairi?” he asked. “Where is she anyway?” Izuku shrugged. “Somewhere in the forest. We don’t know. Ian said that we will probably not train with her today.” “And why’s that? And why is everyone so depressed?” Aizawa asked harshly. “We … had an incident last night” Tenya reported. He looked to the ground and literally every alpha too. Aizawa’s eyes widened. “Don’t tell me …” he exhaled. “We lost control” Hitoshi spilled the beans. “But luckily we could stop before …” his voice cracked and he pressed a hand to his mouth. Aizawa mustered every alpha, he could see that they were really traumatized. “Okay … I will send Cait into the forest to look for Kairi. Ian and Jesper are missing too. You guys stay put and stay inside the camp! Have a break and try to collect yourselves.” They nodded and walked in a group over to the empty camp fire area. They slouched on the logs and just sat there, trying to clear their minds. Katsuki was in the middle of his training with Momo, when he noticed the alphas talking to Aizawa. They looked completely devastated, he wondered what had happened to them. He was so distracted by them, that he missed Momo’s attack, he landed on his ass with an ‘oomph’ sound. “Is everything okay?” she asked. “Of course it is!” he growled. “I was just distracted. The others are back again. They don’t look too good.” “Oh, yeah, you’re right.” “Grrrrr, get back to your training!” Hound Dog barked at them. Without further ado they continued. When they had their break, Katsuki, Denki, Ochako, Mina, Kyoka and Momo, as well as Itsuka and Kinoko walked over to the group of alphas. They were still just sitting there. “Hey, what’s wrong?” Katsuki asked first. They were now next to the logs. The reaction of the alphas was shocking. They immediately jumped away, they looked absolutely terrified. “Uh, its better you guys stay away” Tenya murmured. “W-what?” Momo asked. “Why should we do that?” The alphas looked uncomfortably. “Because we’re monsters. Stay away” Izuku finally said. Itsuka and the omegas looked at them in disbelieve. “What the hell? Where is this coming from all of a sudden?” Katsuki growled. “You are not monsters!” Kinoko tried to comfort them. Tetsutetsu scoffed. “You have no fucking idea!” Cait appeared all of a sudden next to them. “I would be careful now. Kairi’s coming back and she’s in a very bad meoowed.” “Well, she has a reason to be mad …” Mezo mumbled. A few seconds later Kairi, Ian and Jesper came out of the forest. The two boys looked completely beat and Kairi looked incredibly annoyed. She walked over to the camp fire area. “Kairi! Are you alright?!” Tenya asked concerned. “No, I ain’t fucking dead!” she growled. “Now sit the fuck down!” she flopped on one of the chairs, head tucked back. “Ian! I am fucking hungry! Go make me food!” She demanded. “Yes, mother” and off he went. The other alphas sat back down, still a bit confused and concerned. But none of them dared to speak, she was so pissed off that they could basically taste the ethanol from her scent. The omegas and Itsuka shifted uncomfortably. “You too, sit the fuck down!” She growled at them. They sat down, even though they were afraid. They all looked at Kairi expectantly. Jesper sighed and released a calming scent to cover over the burning alcohol stench of his mother. “Now, now mother, just try to calm down. Ian will be here soon.” “I fucking hope so!” “Mrrr, do you need a comfort omega?” Cait asked. Kairi scrunched her nose. “Hell no, stay the fuck away from me. I don’t fucking cuddle.” Luckily, Ian came back at that moment. “Here, mother, this is all we got at the moment.” “About fucking time.” She grabbed the sandwiches and devoured them in an insane speed. After that she finally seemed to calm down. “We should have brought dad” Jesper mentioned. “Pff, why the hell would I need him? I told you, I am fucking fine!” “Yeah, you seem a bit on edge, usually dad’s the only one who can take that off.” Ian deadpanned. “Tch.” “So … your mate is an omega?” Izuku asked after a while. “Fucking hell, no! I don’t fucking date omegas. Miles is an alpha! What would I want with omegas?” Kairi growled. “They are too soft. Don’t need that.” She crossed her arms in front of her chest. “W-wait, what? Your mate is an alpha? How does that work?” “What’s that for a stupid question? It works like a normal relationship!” Kairi grimaced. “Why do you ask about ‘how’ it works? Did someone tell you that it doesn’t work? Goddamn, I should punch some people in the face. Who the fuck tells you that alphas can’t be in a relationship? Must be a crazy person! I tell you what, it’s like every relationship, with ups and downs. It ain’t harder or easier than a relationship between an alpha and an omega or some bullshit like that!” she leaned forward, pointing at Izuku. “Don’t let anyone tell you what you can or can’t do!” “But what about the power dynamics? Alphas are far more aggressive and monstrous!” Izuku tried to argue. “Bullshit! All my life I had only relationships with other alphas and it worked great! I have my current mate for … my fucking god twenty-three year! God I am old … Why am I so old?” She seemed confused all of a sudden. She blinked and held her head with one hand. “Okay, uh, mother you should really sleep now” Ian insisted. “You’re getting kinda confused here, time for bed.” “Don’t fucking tell me what to do! I am your mother!” “Yeah, and you’re still recovering. You go to bed now!” She snarled, but much to everyone’s shock, Ian grabbed her, threw her over his shoulder and pinned her to the ground. “Don’t fucking say a word and go to bed, before I break your neck!” He used a lot of authority, his voice dropped massively. “Is that supposed to be a threat or a promise?” she asked. Ian growled deeply at her. Then he stood up and pulled her up on the collar of her shirt. She blinked again in more confusion. He let her go and pushed her towards the cabins. She yawned. Jesper next to Eijiro apologized. “I am so sorry for my mother’s behavior. She needs a few hours to come to her senses, after she … used her quirk.” “Damn, she’s crazy” Katsuki mumbled. “It’s not that … she’s more frustrated. And we all don’t really know what death does to her.” “What?” Denki looked at Jesper. “What?” Jesper looked back, expressionless. “Do you know what happens after death? We know that she comes back, but we don’t know what it does to her. We noticed, that it takes longer and longer to recover the more she dies.” He explained. “God, this should not have happened in the first place.” Izuku sat down again, he covered his face with his hands. “Stop it. You did nothing wrong. You stopped! Like I said last night, that was a big step! When I went feral for the first time … I couldn’t stop” he looked at him very seriously. The alphas were stunned. “Ian couldn’t stop either. Our sisters couldn’t stop. You did something, we all couldn’t do! You should be proud of that! You managed to tame your instincts, before delivering the killing blow!” “But still, we completely destroyed her body.” Jurota gulped. “That’s on her! She made you go feral. She did this to show you the extent of your power. So, the next time you go into the Zone, you already know the feeling and you can better control yourself.” He looked at them. The omegas and Itsuka were shocked, when they listened to what had happened. They almost killed Kairi? “Just imagine if one of your friends was kidnapped by a criminal and you lost control over yourself. And I mean really lost control, what if you killed that random criminal? Your hero career would be over. It doesn’t matter with Kairi, or Ian, or me. We heal, they probably don’t. This is why it is so important to all of you to learn how to control yourself.” “We get that! But it is still shocking to what damage we are capable off” Hitoshi murmured. “I feel awful. All my life, people told me I would be the perfect villain because of my brainwashing quirk, but now … I didn’t even use my quirk yesterday. This was my pure alpha strength! What if they were right in the first place?” Denki got up to his feet and walked over to Hitoshi. “Hey, no, don’t tell yourself that! You are a wonderful person! You are a hero, not a villain. You had a slip up, but now you know what to do and you can stop yourself!” he hugged Hitoshi and pressed his head against his stomach. Carefully, he patted his head. “He’s right. Much like your quirks, you just need to learn how to use this power.” Jesper mumbled. “I firmly believe that you can do that! You have the support of so many people! You just need to focus on those who keep you grounded!” The alphas looked down to the ground. They were still not happy, but to know that Kairi was alright, and they had support, helped. *** Ian came back now, he looked completely exhausted. “She’s finally sleeping … But only because Hound Dog is with her and … got aggressive.” He grimaced. He sat down in front of his brother and rested his head on Jesper’s knees. He yawned. “You look tired too” Mina mentioned. “Haven’t slept in like four days, that’s probably why” Ian murmured. Jesper started to stroke through Ian’s messy hair. “We should have brought Hua along” the alpha sighed. “Probably” Ian yawned again. He blinked a few times. “Who’s Hua? Your mate?” Ochako asked. “Hmmm, one of them. She’s my omega mate.” Ian answered sleepily. “What do you mean with ‘one’?” Eijiro asked. “I have two mates. My omega mate, Mei-Hua, and my alpha mate, Jay” Ian answered. Katsuki, Izuku and Eijiro looked at him, before they looked between each other. “And this works?” Katsuki asked. “Hmmmmm. Yeah.” “How? Do you not fight with Jay about Hua?” Eijiro questioned. “Why should I?” “Because most alphas are possessive?” The redhead suggested. “Pff, I am not possessive. Besides, Jay and Hua were the first ones to be in a relationship. They invited me afterwards.” Ian shrugged. “How did you get in this relationship in the first place? Did they want you, because you’re a prime?” Katsuki pressured the matter. Ian looked at him confused. “No? Hua’s my childhood friend. I know her since I’m ten. And I met Jay when I was fifteen, about a year before I presented. I always had more of a crush on Jay, but he being a responsible adult, never tried anything. In the mean time I completely friend zoned Hua” Ian grimaced a bit. “It was always that she tried to court me, while I tried to get Jay’s attention but he is like fourteen years older than me, so he always declined. When I was twenty, I made a trip through Europe with Jesper and Kilian, our older brother and Jay and Hua started to get into a relationship. They told me, when we came back and I was like. ‘Oh, nice, cool’ and Hua immediately was like ‘do you wanna join? I mean you like Jay, and I like you, and if we are in a poly-relationship, we can all be together.’ I was a bit confused, why they would want that, but I said yes. And since then we are in a poly-relationship. But I’m usually the passive part. I let them have fun and all, I was never interested in all that sexual stuff – save for the two ruts per year.” He grimaced again. “Wow, I … never expected that? I mean … I don’t know what I expected. What about jealousy?” Katsuki tilted his head. Ian shrugged again. “I am not jealous. Far from it! I enjoy it more when Jay and Hua do … stuff and are happy, as if I have to do … stuff.” He shuddered. Now everyone looked at him confused. “Wait! You’re telling me, that an attractive guy like you is not interested in ‘stuff’ like that?” Mina was in disbelief. Ian flinched back. “Y-yeah? So what? Do I have to like it? I think not! Besides my brother is the attractive one, not me!” “We are identical twins, dearest brother … We look exactly alike” Jesper commented. He then cleared his throat. “But why are you asking about poly-relationships? Were you in one?” “Well, kind of. But it didn’t work out.” Katsuki said. “Ah, that explains things. Why did it not work out? If I may ask?” “Eijiro and I got bitten and we didn’t want to share” Izuku said quickly. “Neither of us likes the idea of sharing Kacchan.” “Hm, Kacchan, you are desired, I see.” Ian chuckled. “Why are you calling me Kacchan all the time? Your mother did that too!” He growled a little. “Isn’t that your name? He’s calling you Kacchan too.” Ian raised his eyebrows while pointing at Izuku. “No, my name is Katsuki Bakugo! Just this stupid nerd and stupid Pikachu call me Kacchan.” “Ah, my bad, we got a list with the names, but without pictures. And to remember forty names is kinda hard, Katsuki” Ian sighed. “…” Katsuki suddenly blushed. “You already started to call me Kacchan, you can continue it now, it sounds weird otherwise” He pouted. The others looked at him dumbfounded. Did he really just say that? “Okay … Kacchan, will do that.” The omegas cheeks got even redder. “Your family then. Your mother said she never had omega partners? What about your siblings? Are they all alphas too?” “Yep, our whole family consists of alphas. As far as I am aware, only our maternal grandmother as well as our aunts are betas. But our sisters and Kilian are all alphas too.” Jesper explained. “Wow, a full alpha family, I have never seen something like that.” Tenya murmured. “But, when they are all alphas and no omegas, how do they have children?” Denki looked confused. “Uh … y-you do realize that mother … is female? She can have children?” Ian sounded unsure. “…” Denki blushed deeply. “Right … Yeah, women can have babies … God, I am stupid …” The others chuckled a bit. “What about your sisters? Do they have partners?” “Haha, they have. Our oldest sister, Ileana, has an alpha mate named Ricardo, Rico for short. She had her first pup last year, you wanna see it?” “Hell yes!” The omega girls were really excited when Jesper pulled his phone out and showed them pictures of the little pup. “Aww, so cute!” The girls squealed. Katsuki looked at the picture too, yeah, it was cute. The alphas looked as well, but their reactions weren’t so extreme. “Ileana looks really like your mother! Damn, by the way how old is your mother? I mean, Ileana looks like she’s thirty or something but your mother too?” Momo had a confused look on her face. “Haha, mother is fifty, Ileana turns thirty-four in December” Ian answered. “How on earth is Kairi fifty? Why is she so young looking? What’s her secret?” Ochako asked. She seemed to be determined to find out, she was kneeling in front of the brothers, hands were curled into fists. They both laughed. “I guess her quirk has something to do with it. We’re not sure however. But I guess all the healing has an effect on her” Jesper said. “Damn, so no secret anti-aging tips for me?” Ochako sighed. “As if you need anti-aging at this age? Do you want to look like a toddler or what?” Ian joked. “N-no?! But for the future! You can never start early enough!” Ochako blushed heavily. The others laughed. “Anyway, your siblings! You have more right?” Kinoko changed the topic. She sat next to Ochako. “Yeah, second one is Malka. She has an omega mate, Krista. They too had a pup last year.” Jesper showed a different picture. “The redhead is Malka.” “Is the red natural?” Eijiro asked. “Nope, dyed.” “Damn, she’s hot! Who did her make up? It’s perfect!” Momo was excited. “Hell, yes! It is!” Mina added. “I did it. She was always bothering me, so I learned how to do it” Ian sighed. “Wow! That’s talent! You ever thought about being a professional make up artist?” Mina asked. “Never.” “Anyway, next!” Kinoko hurried them. Jesper sighed and switched to another pair. “That’s Kilian, technically our cousin, but also half brother.” “How did that come?” Tetsutetsu asked. “Miles, our father, was in a relationship with mother’s younger sister, Freya, but Freya died after giving birth to Kilian. Kairi, who had Malka just a couple of months earlier, offered to help take care of him. And well, eventually they ended up together. Mother and aunt Freya looked exactly alike, that’s why dad chose her to replace his late mate.” “What? That’s kinda cruel” Shoto murmured. “And your mother was okay with that?” They shrugged. “Obviously. She is kinda vague about her relationship with dad, but they are together for twenty-three years so … yeah it seemed to work out.” “So Ileana and Malka are from a different partner? What was with Kairi’s former mate?” “Uncle Kaleb is still living with us, but he found other mates. He was never mated to mother. They were always more like friends with benefits I believe” Ian scrunched his nose. “But for obvious reasons I never asked further questions.” “God, your family has very weird relationships.” Izuku mumbled. “No offense.” “None given, none taken. Anyway, Kilian has an omega mate, Jezebel, they have two pups already.” Ian showed them the picture on his brother’s phone. “Those are cute too. I wonder if they will all turn out as alphas, too?” Ochako wondered. “Well, we could keep you updated or something.” Ian suggested. “Anyway, our younger sister is Elsa, she’s something like the queen here? She has an alpha mate named Alejandro – Alex. But she’s definitely the boss in this relationship. She’s also trying to convince Sam – another alpha and Jay’s best friend – to be in a relationship with her. But he doesn’t really want to, since they are fifteen years apart. He does care about her, just not in a romantic way. But she is determined to ‘have’ him as well.” Jesper explained. “Huh, wow, she doesn’t take shit from anyone, right?” Katsuki murmured. “Nope. Elsa has one of the strongest mindsets I have ever seen. If she wants something she usually gets it.” Ian sighed. “She’s child free at the moment, but I don’t think it will take much longer, she’s very fast in everything.” “Wait! I think I know her!” Shoto perked up. “Oh? How so?” Eijiro asked. “Uh … my brother had some … magazines. And a girl, similar to her was in it …” He blushed. The brothers laughed. “That could be Elsa or Malka, they both work in the sex industry. Elsa had some shootings for various magazines.” Ian explained. “Ah … alright …” the alpha still had a deep blush on his face. “So, what about your mates? You skipped yourselves.” Mina came closer to Ian. The twins sighed. “My mate’s an omega girl called Mina” Jesper started. “Oh, like me!” Mina grinned. “Yeah, like you. She’s born in Vietnam, but lived in America, until she was on a vacation with her parents. You see, Ileana is the boss of a hotel, and our house is right next to the hotel, so we go there frequently. And Mina saw me and bam, she would follow me like everywhere, I didn’t even know her! She would always cling to me the whole six weeks of their vacation. And she threw a massive tantrum when her parents said, they would fly back. But only about four weeks later, she was back at our door, not the hotel but our private home. She asked if she can stay, her parents are okay with that, mind you we were fifteen at the time, I was stunned, mother was like ‘what the fuck?’ and basically she moved in on her own accord.” “Holy hell? You let her do that? Just like that?” Denki asked. “We, of course, talked to her parents again but they said they know we would take care of her, one child more wouldn’t matter, and off they went. Suffice to say we were all stunned.” “Oh, I would be stunned too. Whose parents would do such a thing?” Tenya shook his head. “So Mina lived with us and after we both presented, she was even clingier. I mean, I do care about her, but I always wondered why she was so fixated on me. We eventually became mates. But now she’s talking about pups and I am not up for that yet.” He grimaced. “Do you love her?” Ochako asked. “… I guess so? I mean … I haven’t kicked her out, but I was never good with romantic emotions and shit like that.” He shrugged. “Hm, are you happy with her?” Mina asked. “Yes, I kinda like it, when she’s around. I don’t hate her, she’s a very sweet person, but like I said, I don’t do well with emotions.” He tapped on his phone and showed them a picture of Mina. “Wow, but you got lucky with her. She’s super attractive!” Tetsutetsu acknowledged. “That she is” Jesper had a slight grin on his face. “Anyway, how do your mates look like, Ian?” Ochako was right in his face now. “Uhh” he pulled his phone out and showed them his phone screen. “Woah!” Ochako blushed. “Why are they posing like that?” They were half nude on the picture, but they were positioned in a way, that no inappropriate parts were shown. “Because they wanted to tease me with that, but I like the picture, so I saved it as my phone background.” He shrugged. “Ah! Makes sense.” She rubbed the back of her head. “Why did you say, you should have brought her along earlier?” Momo asked. “I literally can’t sleep, when she’s not around. That’s why I am awake for like one hundred hours by now …” “Wow, that’s something … Why didn’t you bring her?” Ochako looked concerned. “Because she’s carrying Jay’s pup and I don’t want to bring her into a forest like that.” “Makes sense, but it is extremely unhealthy to stay awake for so long.” Tenya reminded him. “I know, maybe Jes should break my neck later. Maybe this helps” Ian yelped when Jesper opened his legs and stuck his brothers head between his knees. “Don’t say stuff like that, you’ll traumatize them further.” Jesper scolded him. “Aye, sorry.” Ian grimaced. “You talk about death so casually, it’s creepy” Momo mumbled. “Sorry” they both apologized. “Anyway, enough break. Let’s train now, maybe I wake up then. Kacchan, let’s train alpha commands. Do you want to join the betas? You are quite advanced now.” Ian asked. “… uh, sure!” He stood up and dusted himself a bit off. “You other alphas, you come with us and train your alpha commands. I am sure you need it. Tomorrow we can continue your training. I think mother will be alright until then.” Jesper told them. “Yes sir”, they said in unison and stood up. They made their way over to the training spaces. Izuku went with Ian and the betas, as well as Katsuki, and the other alphas left with Jesper and the omegas. Hosted by Animexx e.V. (http://www.animexx.de)
