Chapter 2: Curiosity

Y/N walked the streets, holding his panda close. He managed to get a jacket from a guy who fell asleep at a bus stop. Y/N totally didn't command him to fall asleep so he could rob him.


The jacket was big on him, going past his knees. The jacket was navy blue and was zipped up all the way to his mouth, to hide his curse marks on his mouth. His black jeans hardly visible from the jacket.


To say the little six year old was confused would be an understatement. He had no idea what anything was, being in that facility for a really long time. The world wasn't like what his picture books said, there was not a single talking dog anywhere. Not even a big red dog, Y/N's real target.


"Hey there, are you lost sweetie?" A lady asked, kneeling in front of the boy.


Y/N looked at the lady and closed his eyes, indicating that he was indeed, smiling at her.


"Kelp" Y/N said, using the lady's confusion as an opportunity to run away.


Y/N winced a little from the pain in his shoulder, it had been a few days now since he got shot. Right after he escaped from the facility, he went to the store to get bandages and disinfectant. He was used to bandaging his wounds at the facility, but he wasn't an expert at it.


Y/N came to a stop when he reached a massive building. People were going in and out, carrying shopping bags from various stores.


"Salmon" Y/N said with a nod, walking into the building with confidence.


Now, be was feeling anything but confident.


People wouldn't even glance at him as they walked, bumping into him occasionally or giving him a mean stare.


"Bonito flakes?" Y/N muttered with a head tilt, looking at a candy store. He saw all the fancy colors and decided that it was the best store he's seen by far.


He rushed to the doors and tried to push them open. Only bad news was that the door was a pull door, and Y/N couldn't read. The scientists only read Clifford to Y/N, he was never taught.


He continued to try and push the door, making agitated hums as he did so.


"Hey little guy, it's a pull door"


Y/N looked up and saw a teen with red spiky hair smiling down at him. Behind him was a group of people about the same age as the one talking to Y/N. 


"Let me help you out" Kirishima continued, reaching out and pulling the door open.


Y/N looked at the now opened door with sparkled eyes, like that was the most amazing thing he's ever seen.


"Salmon!" Y/N yelled, hugging Kirishima's legs and stared up in admiration.


"Salmon?" Sero asked with a head tilt.


"He must be hungry!" Mina declared.


"Yeah dumbasses, that's why the brat is going to a candy store" Bakugou huffed in annoyance, already wanting to leave.


"Looks like Kirishima has his first little fan" Kaminari laughed as he and his friends watched Y/N hold up his panda for Kirishima to inspect.


"LET'S JUST FUCKING LEAVE ALREADY!" Bakugou yelled, annoyed that the group was still standing around.


Y/N looked at the explosive blonde with unamused expression before unzipping his jacket, revealing his tattooed mouth.


"Stop yelling" Y/N commanded.


"You got something to say?" Bakugou asked in a very calm voice, it even made him shocked at how calm he sounded.


"Hahaha Bakugou sounds so calm" Mina laughed, but she also had a really quiet voice.


"Jfkdkkd why are you guys whispering?" Kaminari asked while Sero laughed, but they whispered too.


Y/N zipped up his jacket with an accomplished look on his face. He hugged his panda close and walked into the candy store.


"What the hELL IS GOING ON?!" Bakugou asked, his voice got loud mid sentence.


"HE'S BACK!" Kaninari, Mina, and Sero laughed loudly while Kirishima stared at the retreating Y/N with wide eyes.


Y/N walked through the aisles, looking at everything curiously. He's never seen candy before, never even heard the word before.  He saw countless colors, as well as words he couldn't read.


Y/N looked at a mother and son, the mother had a bag and was putting all the candy her son asked for inside. Once they finished, they took the full bag to the cashier, who weighed it and gave them the price for it.


Y/N decided he should copy their actions, so he waddled to the bags and grabbed the bottom one, since he couldn't reach the top.


All the bags that were on top fell to the floor, but Y/N didn't mind it at all and just walked over to the candy section. The guy who restocked the bags did mind though and made a bunch of screeching noises.


Y/N looked at all the jars in curiosity. He saw the women scooping candy in the bag, for reasons that were unknown to the boy. Was it some kind of game?


The only game he was used to was when the scientists told him to keep saying commands until he choked


But Y/N saw the boy smiling when the candy was getting scooped, so it couldn't possibly be anything bad.


Y/N reached for the candy, but it was too tall for him. He did the only reasonable thing as a solution. He stepped back and kicked the candy shelf, and all the candy's fell to the floor.


"What do you think you're doing kid?!" The cashier asked, looking over his place at the counter in anger.


Y/N put as much candy in his bag as he could, his heart set on winning the game.


"Mustard Leaf!" Y/N said as he held up his bag.


"You ruined the shelves you little bastard!" The man yelled, walking towards the confused boy.


'Did I do something wrong? I want to apologize if I did, but I don't know how to' Y/N thought as he started up at the man with teary eyes.


'Maybe he won't hit me if I give him my bag' Y/N continued as he held up his bag, offering it to the man.


The man merely smacked the bag out of Y/N's hands and the boy began to fiddle with his sleeves, looking down to the floor.


"What seems to be the problem sir?" A loud voice asked.


All Might stood behind the livid cashier. He heard the yells from outside and thought it could be a villain breaking into the store.


"This kid ruined my entire store!" The man fumed, pointing at Y/N.


Y/N stared at All Might in shock. He remembered the heroes face from the night he escaped, but he also thought that group was just as mean as the scientists that had him there.


Y/N hurriedly unzipped his jacket, revealing his mouth.


"Blast away!" Y/N yelled. All Might was harshly thrown across the room and into the glass doors. Y/N picked up his panda and bag of candy before running as fast as he could. He made sure to leave a jellybean on All Might's chest before he left, signifying that he was apologizing.


"Hey kid! Stop right there!"


Y/N looked behind him and saw a women running after him. The pro hero Midnight caught up to the boy and grabbed his arm.


"Stop them" Y/N commanded.


Midnight let go of Y/N and used her sleeping aroma on approaching heroes, including all the civilians in the area.


Y/N zipped his jacket again and ran out of the mall, guilt weighing on his shoulders.
