《Dying Love (BakuKiriKami) Book One》Words I Never Knew Could Hurt So Bad (Arc I End)
Advertisement
I groan softly, my chest hurts, my lungs are on fire, and I can smell something....is that caramel? I open my eyes and looked upon the sleeping faces of Kirishima and Bakugou. I smile slightly, they looked so peaceful.
Wait why am I here again?
I tried to think, then I remembered. I remembered the feeling of my crush holding me in his strong arms. I remember him crying, over me. I look over at Kirishima and felt a pang of guilt and sadness wash over me.
That's when I noticed that Bakugou and Kirishima had puffy eyes. Like they had been crying for a long time. Which took me by suprise. Bakugou had been crying too?
I looked at Bakugou and smiled a little, I felt bad, but I was happy that they had cried. Because it showed how much they cared.
I regretted thinking that less than a second after.
I couldn't breathe.
The flowers seemed to have launched themselves in my throat.
I pull myself away from the cute couple and hurriedly go into the bathroom. I hunch over the toilet and before I know it, I start throwing my guts up, or at least it certainly as hell felt like it.
Once the flowers were out, it was easier. Blood leaked out of my mouth and into the toilet, but at least I could semi-breathe now.
"Denks...?" a groggy voice murmured from the doorway.
I turned my head, expecting to see Kirishima, but instead, I saw a bleary-eyed Bakugou standing there. The sight of him made more flowers well up in my throat.
Bakugou looked at me with an emotion I had never seen come from his eyes before, it was pure worry. He came over to me and knelt beside me, ignoring the fact he was getting blood all over himself. He put his arms around me and pulled me into a hug.

I froze, was the almighty Katsuki fucking Bakugou hugging me?! The angry 24/7 semi bully, pomeranian, was hugging me. Me! Dunce face Kaminari, pikachu, laughing stock of 1A and probably the whole fucking school!
"You feel any better?" Bakugou asked, he looked down at me in his arms.
"w-why are you hugging me?" I asked, still in a stupor.
Bakugou furrowed his brows, "Because...I'm....." he coughed a little and avoided eye contact with me, "i'm..." he seemed to be at a loss for words.
Finally he said the four words I thought was impossible for him to say.
"I'm worried about you..."
I gape at him, a few petals slipping out of my mouth, "what....why?!"
"Tch," he said, but his grip on me tightened, and for some reason, I felt safe.
"Because you're a good friend okay!?" He snapped.
Good friend......
How could the word friend hurt so fucking bad, it made my chest ache. All of a sudden I was kneeling over the toilet again, coughing and gagging violently. Blood and petals flooded out of my mouth. The blood was getting everywhere, overflowing the toilet at this point.
"D-dunce face!?" Bakugou asked, panicked.
Dunce face, dumbass, charger, useless.
I felt the blood and petals slowly come to a stop, but that seemed to only worsen my coughing and gagging. My eyes filled with tears as I tried to get whatever was in my throat out. My coughing turned into wheezing and I clawed at my throat desperately as I felt the lack of oxygen.
Bakugou grabbed me by my stomach and did a sort of hymlic maneuver on me. (Fuck spelling its 3 in the fucking morning) I groaned out in pain as oxygen filled my burning lungs. I slumped down against Bakugou and closed my eyes.

BAKUGOU'S POV
I stare in shocked silence, holding the limp boy in my arms. In the toilet, floated not petals, but two, whole ass, blood covered, flower. And not just the fucking flowers. Leaves, stems, thorns, the whole fucking bloody mess.
Speaking of bloody mess.
I had to keep myself from throwing up at how much blood was all over my bathroom now. Not to mention myself and Kaminari. I wasn't one to get queezy over the sight of blood but, this was too much for me to handle.
I heard the creak of floorboards and I look up to see my boyfriend staring in horrified shock as he took in the mess. His eyes focused on me and the half-conscious boy in my arms.
I felt something hot roll down my face, they were tears. I was crying.
I looked down at the boy I cared about so much.
Who was I fucking with.
The boy I
"Kat...." I heard Kirishima's broken voice call.
I could instantly tell he was just as broken-hearted about this as I was.
"I know..." I said in a strained voice.
Kirishima came over to us and sat down on his knees, running his fingers through Kaminari's hair.
Kami's eyes fluttered and he looked up at the two of us. His brows knitted together in confusion and concern.
"Are you guys okay...why are you crying?" he murmured.
I laughed. I couldn't help it. Here he was, coughing his guts up in flowers and blood, and he was still more worried about others than himself.
Ei looked stunned for a minute before he smiled sadly, "we're okay...." he whispered softly, not wanting to talk too loudly because he didn't want to accidentally start to sob.
Ei pulled Kaminari into a hug and I joined, wrapping my arms around them both.
Denki POV (Sorry for the POV switches im so fucking tired i can't even think straight atm. Then again i'm not fucking straight so there's that. Anywho sorry for my rambling)
"Who is it, Denks...." I heard Bakugou murmur in my ear.
Tears welled up in my eyes again, I didn't hold them back. They streamed down my face as I felt the petals building up again. I clung to Kirishima's shirt tightly and shook my head a little. Bakugou looked at me with a pained expression, and he reached over and combed his fingers through my hair.
It was calming, and very un-Bakugou of him. This whole situation was very un-Bakugou of him.
I forced a smile, "w-what happened to not showing weakness..." I joked weakly.
"Shut it, pika," he murmured, but a slight smile formed on his face.
My heart fluttered at the name, and I looked up at the two. After a moment or two....I realized I had stopped breathing. Black dots covered my vision. I tried to breathe but found I physically couldn't.
A panicked look came into Kirishima's eyes and I felt my body being lifted up and indistinct sentences.
I felt my vision start to totally fade. Instead of panicking, however, I felt a small smile cross over my lips as Kirishima held me closer against his chest.
He smells like strawberries I thought, before giving in to the overpowering darkness.
😭😭😭😭😭😭

The White Rabbit
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is highly advised.
