Like Lightning After the Thunder: Chapter One: Damned Smile

Fic Summary:

His breath wavered as he stared into Katsuki’s eyes. He knew he could get out if he tried. He could knock Katsuki out, hope that no one else would find them, and run back into the shadows where he belonged. Katsuki may have had him pinned down but he was in Denki’s range now and it would take little effort to send a charge through Katsuki to paralyze him temporarily.

It would take barely any additional effort to kill Katsuki.

As the sparks began to charge, lighting up the air around him, Katsuki refused to back down.

–

Katsuki always knew he was destined for great things.

He didn’t think he’d have to turn his back on all he’s ever known to get there.

Rating: T

Warnings: Eventual major character death, implied/referenced child abuse, psychological trauma

--

Even years later, that damn smile haunted his dreams.

There was absolutely no reason for him to still think about the event. Everything had been taken care of when it had happened― injuries were treated, authorities alerted, information secured, and a press conference to tie it all up in a big red bow. There were no loose ends, no surprise second coming, no physical reminders of what happened lingering in his daily life. Katsuki would have labeled it as done, dealt with, and no longer relevant, shoving it aside in his memory so he could focus on actual important shit.

Except his mind had different plans.

When he was lucky, he could completely forget about the event for months. Other times, his dreams would be filled with nothing but that damn smile, taunting him with its silence. He could usually predict when the dreams would come― the anniversary of the event for example― but other times, it seemed like anything could trigger the memory. He once saw a bright yellow balloon and for the rest of the day, every time he closed his eyes he saw that damned smile, never wavering despite the curses and insults Katsuki spewed.

He wanted to forget it. He wanted so desperately to forget it. For the image to erase itself from his mind, for it to take the feelings away with it. He could deal with the anger, he could always deal with the anger, but when his memory reminded him of the wave of hurt and betrayal that nearly blinded him…

When his alarm jolted him from his sleep and freed him from the smile, he couldn’t get out of bed fast enough. He woke up drenched in a cold sweat, sheets singed and smoking lightly as he unclenched his hands, and Katsuki was, for once, very relieved that not all of his sweat was explosive. He slapped the singes a few times to ensure that all of the embers were put out before heading for the bathroom, cursing under his breath as he flinched at his own reflection in the mirror.

There was nothing particularly wrong with his appearance, if you didn’t count the dark circles under his eyes from a fitful night’s sleep or his clammy skin, but after being plagued by the smile, Katsuki could barely look at himself. His reaction to the smile made him feel weak, like he couldn’t handle himself and that there was something wrong with him. It was just a smile after all. There was no reason for him to react to it like a nightmare, no reason for him to lose sleep over it or to feel overwhelmed by emotions at the thought of it.

Yet when he saw the smile and saw how the corners of his mouth were tugged a bit too tight, how his eyes were open a bit too wide, how the only shine in his eyes were the reflections of light on tears that refused to fall…

Katsuki cursed.

The icy cold shower did little to help distract him from the memory, nor did his morning run nor the steaming shower he took after. He wasn’t supposed to head into the agency today, so he didn’t have any planned beatdowns for today, and yes he probably shouldn’t be hoping for it, but part of him hoped for a sudden emergency villain so he could distract himself by focusing on beating some villain’s ass into next week.

A few hours later when his phone refused to stop buzzing, Katsuki wondered if throwing his phone across the room until it stopped would be close enough to beating villain ass to work. He reluctantly decided that talking to people so they’d leave him alone was probably less hassle to deal with than having to replace his phone and distribute his new number (even if it would give him an excuse to ghost some of these damn extras).

A few individual texts and a group text were the cause of the buzzing. As the group text’s new message count continued to rise, he figured it would be easier to respond to the individual texts first. Just in case he changed his mind about destroying the phone.

Four Eyes (Rocket Legs): Hello Bakugou, this is a reminder about the upcoming Class A reunion. As the head of the reunion committee, it is my duty to ensure an accurate headcount for the event, and I have yet to receive your response about your attendance. Please ensure to respond via the following link by this Friday at 11:59PM. [Class A 10 Year Reunion RSVP]

Four Eyes (Rocket Legs): In case you missed the previous messages regarding the reunion, the event is March 28th starting at 7PM at the Shinjuku Hotel in Musutafu. If you need to rent a room for the night or the weekend, please alert the Shinjuku Hotel staff that you are part of the Class A reunion party by next Wednesday for an event discount.

Katsuki frowned. He wasn’t exactly looking forward to the possibility of being surrounded by all of his former classmates and even less at the idea of being socially obligated to spend the entire evening with them. At least when he met up with his friends elsewhere, he could always claim needing to leave early so he could make the last train or that work needed him to come in early the next day.

He closed out of the conversation, figuring he still had a few more days to decide if he really wanted to deal with his classmates for an entire evening.

Midoriya: Hey Katsugou! I was wondering if you’re going to go to the reunion? Tenya said the deadline to RSVP is coming soon and we haven’t heard from you, so I just thought I’d check in!

Katsuki: The fuck is Katsugou?

Midoriya: Oh sorry!! Typo!!

Midoriya: Anyway, are you coming?

Katsuki closed out of the conversation and moved on to the next one.

Shitty Hair: Katsuki! Are you coming to the reunion or not dude????

Katsuki: Fuck off.

Shitty Hair: Aww dude that’s no way to talk to your best friend, you know you love me!!

Katsuki: I’m blocking you.

He did not, in fact, block him. But he did close out of Eijirou’s texts.

Save for the newest text sent directly from Eijirou, all that was left was the backlog of texts in the group text. It had kept going off while he was reading the other conversations, so Katsuki figured it meant that everyone was either off for the day or on their lunch break.

Raccoon Eyes: guys!!!!! the reunion is COMING UPPPPPP!!!!

Tape Face: barely caught

Katsuki: Whatever.

Raccoon Eyes: im still impressed by how eASY u made that look

Katsuki: What the fuck’s that supposed to mean?

Raccoon Eyes: o look conveniently timed distraction photo spam

Katsuki sighed as he continued the conversation, commenting here and there on the photos his friends sent for judgement. In retrospect, he probably should have tried to talk to Shion first, since there was a chance she would have denied the time off for the reunion. Although, knowing her, she would have accepted just to force Katsuki into socializing. He opened up a new text message, figuring that if Shion did decide to deny the time off, he would at least have a screenshot to send to his friends explaining the sudden change in plans.

Katsuki: I need March 28th and 29th off.

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Do my eyes deceive me? The great Katsuki Bakugou, asking for time off?

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): I’m amazed! Usually I have to ask you to take the day off!

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Nay, not ask, but force!

Katsuki: Are you going to give it to me or not?

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Depends! What do you need the time off for?

Katsuki: Class reunion.

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Oh those are fun!

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Fill out the proper time off paperwork and have it on my desk by Monday. I’ll approve the time off.

Four Eyes (Shitty Shion): Just keep your phone on you in case we need you to come in for an emergency, but I’ll try not to ruin your reunion with work.

Katsuki: Thanks.

Well, so much for an easy way out.

Katsuki pinched the bridge of his nose when he noticed that his phone had already accumulated another thirty texts in the past few minutes, no doubt primarily from Mina. He scrolled through the backlog, sending a few mostly empty threats when he saw photos he did not want projected for the entire class to see, freezing when his gaze met a pair of familiar amber eyes.

Shit.

In his scramble to close out of the photo, to escape the genuine smile that somehow was more haunting than the one in his dreams, he left the group text completely. He briefly thanked his past self; he’d impulse or rage quit the group text plenty of times before that this wasn’t unusual behavior. If he was lucky, his friends wouldn’t have noticed the timing of his departure and would assume he was just fed up with the notifications or the conversation.

Shitty Hair: You okay, Katsuki?

A weak laugh escaped Katsuki’s lips as he read the newest notification. Of course Eijirou noticed.

Katsuki: I’m fine.

Shitty Hair: Okay

Shitty Hair: We don’t have to talk about it

Shitty Hair: But if you want to, I’m here dude

Shitty Hair: I’ll tell the others that you left so your phone would shut up and not to add you back yet

Katsuki: Thanks. Really.

Shitty Hair: No problem dude

Katsuki put his phone down, silently praying for the smile to leave him alone.

When he finally laid down for bed that night, he repeated the short prayer, for a peaceful night’s rest free of the smile, of the hurt, of the pain, of the guilt.

But as always, the smile came.

NUMBERTALE

[ESPAÑOL]

What is it really?

This Au was supposed to be a pacifist. Due to a near cataclysmic event that happened in this universe it is difficult to know exactly what caused its disappearance.

The only witness capable of explaining the cause of this self-erasing Au is his Sans, although he does not remember it due to fainting, apparently the impact erased something important.

He said that his name was never Sans, that it was a nickname, he calls himself Eight, one of the 12 ... What does it mean that he belongs to the 12?

If you ask who is narrating this, it is said by a friend of Eight, Jackson, I can not say that AU came from since it would be Spoiler my friend.

All this my enigmatic friend told me.

Now the boss give details that I can not say since I have no knowledge of this.

Basic information

Eight/ Sans

Name: Eight Age: 28, currently 31

Height: 1.58 (skeleton) 1.68 (Human)

Weight: 54 kg (skeleton) 64 kg (Human)

Species: Skeleton

Favorite Food: Sushi / Apples

Personality

At first he was a jovial, sociable, relaxed and not very serious sans, after witnessing the cataclysm that ended up destroying his universe.

He became calm, serious and more reserved, apart from showing things seriously, he shows to be constantly alert.

They have a great distrust of those around them, especially the Charas.

He does not feel a feeling of greatness of his achievements to save others, only satisfaction of doing the right thing, he does his best not to be so visible to the rest of Sans and other people in the multiverse.

He prefers to do what he considers to be work in the shadows and anonymously.

Ah, unlike the original Sans, he hates jokes and jokes. Ketchup does not like. Apart from being someone quite active and competent.

He has a taste for board games, especially dominoes.

It is more accessible with children and the elderly.

He likes cats and dogs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Appearance

Skeleton

Human

Character / Background

After being in the vacuum of his AU, he was found by Core Frisk, since it took him to the Omega line, he was for a while learning to handle his new magic, one day he decided to leave it to start a trip to know better the multiverse.

In one of his trips he meets Horror Sans, who wants to kill him, to his bad luck he was transformed into a human so Horror wanted to devour him. When trying to defend himself, he discovers that he can make two types of weapons appear, which he called Aoi Shio and Nigai Orenji. Inadvertently he opened a portal that led him to Underswap, managing to escape Horror.

He was a prisoner for Berry for a few minutes until he returned to normal to the surprise of Swap Papyrus and Berry, who did not finish asking him questions. After taking him to undyne to do some studies, Berry introduces him to another Sans named Jackson. At first he did not like me as he kept making several bad jokes.

In an unexpected moment, screams are heard from Grillby's, everyone is on their way until they manage to see that the cause is another sans but very different, it was Killer, Papyrus and Jackson began to fight against that Sans, Berry helped evacuate to the area together with other monsters.

Eight froze, recalling the cataclysm again, her thoughts being interrupted by Papyrus and Jackson. Killer had Berry who was about to kill him. Papyrus managed to save him but suffered a stab in the shoulder.

Jackson made Killer back down as well as give him a fight, Eight when seeing such an act made his yellow weapon (Nigai) appear and attacked Killer, gave him some battle, Jackson and Eight joined forces and managed to expel Killer through a portal.

Eight ended up fainting. After a few minutes he woke up at Undyne's house, where Berry, Papyrus, and Jackson were. Jackson told her that Undyne did some studies for her that she has 2 human souls apart from only having half a monster soul, she believes this is the reason why she transforms into a human.

Jackson tells him about the existence of Sans in the multiverse who are equal to Killer, who come to an AU either to eliminate it or simply make its inhabitants suffer.

Due to this experience, in addition to learning about the existence of these Sans, Eight makes the decision to become an anonymous vigilante protector of the Au.

Weapons / Skills

To fight and defend himself, he most frequently uses his weapons which are the Aoi Shio and Nigai Orenji, better known as the Shio sword and the Nigai spear.

He rarely uses his blue magic and bone summoning

The only thing he cannot use frequently in battle is his Gaster Blaster

When wearing them for a long time, if you exceed the time limit, the wound on your left eye begins to expand. If that happens, he loses control like sanity and becomes a bloodthirsty killer.

Not being able to use 89% of his powers like other sans this limits him and gives him a slight disadvantage.

He specialized in hand-to-hand combat.

He manages his two weapons to perfection, and creates his own traps.

One of the abilities he has is that he can transform into a human temporarily, although this is something that he cannot control of his own free will, since he does not know for sure when he will become a human.

The transformation has caused problems such as the occasion that Horror wanted to devour him. Having been kidnapped and another for scaring a town.

The only way he can tell when he will turn human is when the unhealed wound in his left eye begins to ache.

Undyne of Underswap believes that this is due to Eight not possessing in its entirety his monster soul, the two human souls that are united to his soul cause the transformation. Although he does not know why they cause the pain in his eye.

Relations

Jackson became a great friend to him, although he is constantly annoyed by someone he can trust.

With Core he had little problems but he gets along well with her. The Omega line is a temporary home for him.

He doesn't know many in the Multiverse as he prefers to be someone anonymous. The times when he interacts, he is a bit ostile but he becomes understanding and calm.

Curiosities

The only friendship he has made are with Berry, Jackson and Core Frisk.

When he loses control he claims to be someone named "A", belonging to the 12.

He has a journal in which he writes information on other Auses and Sans, apart from containing some of his Au's history along with his first days in the void after his Au disappeared. The diary was a birthday present from his Papyrus and his Frisk.

He was unaware of Ink's existence until he accidentally ran into it in a battle with Error.

The name of their weapons are in Japanese, translated into Spanish are Blue Tide (Aoi Shio) and Bitter Orange (Nigai Orenji).

His Gaster Blasters somehow have a conscience of his own, since they sometimes give him advice when it comes to fights. Each Gaster Blaster has different features, one is yellow with a scar on his left eye just like Eight's, the other is light blue with no scar.

His taste for sushi and oriental food came from a visit to an Au who was set in feudal Japan.

He is a somewhat lonely Sans and is rarely accompanied by any other Sans, other than Jackson

He does not consider himself a hero as such, despite being calm and preferring to resolve things through dialogue. He will not hesitate to kill whoever disturbs the peace in the Aus. As in a case in which he traveled to Underfell, where he ended up killing two monsters that he considered dangerous.

The only parallel version of them is its Fell version called Tooc, it does not have a Swap version.

When redesigning the character, his personality and attitudes are inspired by the Quiverwing Duck character. While its design is inspired by Cross Sans.

I needed to clarify a few things to the new Eight, since I did not think I was creating a more complex story for him.

It is the only information I will give so far.

This Au believes it as of 2017. I don't remember the exact date.

The comics of this Sans I left them suspended due to my dedication to other projects. But it still stands to continue the comics.
