Prologue
"I can't promise you she is stable." the man spoke in a light tone, different from the harsh looking face he held. "She's had a very difficult life, y'know."
They continued their walk down the brightly lit hall. All Might followed behind the guard, allowing his hollow eyes to scan his surroundings. Everything was white. The pure, sanitary white one would find in a hospital setting. Though this was anything but. This was a sancutary for the insane. A place that, after reading through her papers, he decided she did not belong.
"I'm sure its been difficult here as well." All Might scoffed, eyeing the white door they stopped at.
"Actually," the orderly fumbled with a ring of keys. "She was content with her surroundings up until a week ago. Right after she watched the Yuuei sports day on television."
All Might barely had time to hide his surprise before the thick door was pushed open. Inside he heard the distinct noises of a televison blarring the commentary on the past weeks sports competition. The blond hero stepped inside to find a young teenage girl sitting in front of the old staticky television with her cheeks resting in her palms.
"Hebiko- Quirk: Snake"
She was just like her file had said. From her back he could see her scaled hair form into the cowl of a king cobra, the elebrate design neatly etched on with golden scales. Below her waist sprouted a long snake tail with a rattle on the end which shook slightly with her excitement.
The girl turned to the number one hero and smiled brightly. "Hello! They're getting to the best part of the competition. Do you wanna watch it with me?"
All Might merely shook his head, advirting his gaze from her naked upper half. They had explained that she refused to wear clothes, having never worn any to begin with. She had grown up being treated as an animal, her file had said. She even ate raw meat, confused as to why someone would cook it.
"Hebiko, they said you know information on the League of Villians?"
"I do," she turned back to the television. "So what? Every one gets what they want but me. I still get stuck here to rot. Might as well be back in that basement."
All Might sighed and took a few steps so that he was standing next to her. He watced the TV for a moment, chewing on his words. Hebiko was young, barely sixteen, a little older than young Midoriya. She had spent most of her life sheltered from others, never knowing friendship, love, companionship. The way she was watching the sports day on TV gave him a good idea of what she wanted deep down. Even though she'd never voice what she wanted, knowing she would never be allowed it.
"If you tell us what you know, I'll see about getting you into Yuuei." the words tumbled out of his mouth before he was ready to think them over.
She looked up at him with her large, snake-like eyes. "Really?"
He nodded, jabbing a thumb at his chest. "I never lie."
