《Gone Boy》6
Advertisement
It had been about seven months since the whole ordeal. The doctors had finally been able to contact Inko with the news of her son's full condition.
No, she was never left in the dark. The doctors told her everything that was happening inside the room. They called her two times a day, sometimes more so that she always knew what was happening to her child.
They even told her all of their conspiracies and thoughts on the subject of her son's new predicaments. But until now they had no serious tests done to figure out why he had reacted so negatively to quirks. They didn't want to do these strenuous tests while he was in critical condition so they waited until his sluggish healing process naturally began sealing the wound.
Later on, one of the gunshot wounds had gotten infected so it further slowed the process.
But at the nine month mark, everything seemed to be normal and the doctors did a thorough check of Midoriya to see if anything else was wrong. He was perfect.
The only thing Doctor Shibuya wanted to know is why the teen was reacting to everything quirk-related and why he was still asleep. Nothing was keeping the boy from waking up...so why wasn't he?
It took a month of testing and searching for reasons until Shibuya figured out that the boy was quirkless. He never had a quirk--at least not his own. So when the bullet hit Midoriya it took away the strength enhancer and since that was easily taken away due to it not being his natural quirk, the drug began making its way to Midoriya's cells. It tampered with the quirkless gene.
What happens when an originally quirkless person gets shot with a quirk-erasing drug? The gene for his quirklessness gets damaged, causing the boy to not only remain ordinary but also become immune to the quirks.

After being able to get information on everything close to the subject, Doctor Shibuya was allowed to deduce that since the bullets were made from a mere child's blood, that the quirk gene and cells were able to mutate due to stress. Thus causing the boy to become immune to any and all quirks used on him.
A boy who had nothing, yet no one could touch him.
Fascinating.
Having this new information, he finally felt confident to talk to Inko about the discovery. His confidence quickly faded after hearing the mother's choked sobs. Not only the mother's but another person in the background seemed to be taking the news deeply as well.
Suddenly a scream was heard on the line. Filled with so much distress and anguish that the doctor was immediately worried.
"Katsuki? Katsuki!" The mother became distraught over the background and hung up the phone in a rush.
Shibuya was highly concerned and took one last look at the boy under the thin hospital sheets. A boy once a hero, so strong now looked weak and fragile.
It feels like everything was falling apart in this little world. He felt like he had ruined the Midoriya family and all that knew them.
It was a horrible feeling. Not to mention that he didn't even know them personally.
He sighed, rubbing the back of his head before walking out the door.
What he failed to notice was the slightly elevated heart and respiration rate of the patient. As Doctor Shibuya shut the door with a click, one bleary eye was opening.

Of Men and Dragons, Book 1
Book 1 is now available on Kindle, or in paperback/hardcover! You can buy it here! Jack crash-landed on a planet where the natives are seven-foot-tall carnivorous cat-lizards currently somewhere between stone and bronze age. The good news is the natives think the ship that crashed into their mountain is a dragon and are steering clear of it. The bad news is they just left one of their own as a sacrifice to appease the beast. No matter what Jack and his AI co-pilot decide, his life just got a lot more complicated... ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

Seclusion
I look at the mountain of paperwork before me. I'm overworked. Slowly, my eyes fall shut. I'm so tired of this... A loud 'bang' caused by dropping off another pile of paperwork made me bolt upright. My maid stands before, scorn in her eyes. Annoyed, I wave her away—this is not the first time that that has happened. And she is not the only one who does that. 'Hated by my own people,' I sigh internally and rub my temples. This is not what my 'freedom' was supposed to look like. My eyes hover over the ring on my finger. I tried, you know? Right now, I only want everything to stop. Maybe read some books, eat something delicious, and nap as often as I want to. Wait...I am the matriarch! Hell, I can do whatever I want! Books? I can pocket whole libraries in my domain. Food? Also, in my domain. Naps? Well, there are many cuddly nooks in there. Sooo...my domain has everything I need—dunno why I never thought of this before. All that's left is to relocate its entrance to another totally secret place. How about that hidden forest temple? Yes, let's go with this! Goodbye obligations, goodbye people who always want to take over, goodbye enemies, and at last, good riddance to the council that tries to marry me off to one of these fat ugly narcissistic nobles. Uhh, I just hope nothing will go wrong during my long-term absence. Nahhh, nothing will happen at all; I am totally sure of it...probably. ______ This is the rewrite of the old story: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/273362/seclusion-old-version--dropped/ Alternate Titel: I lived so long in seclusion that everybody forgot about me

Every Hateful Instrument
Hail-and-Farewell Vinright is a pirate, ferrying drugs and weapons across the galaxy. When he discovers that the headaches he's been plagued with are not a sign that he has a brain tumor, and are instead the rare God-given gift of the power, one in a million psychic abilities, Hail sees the opportunity to help his family profit. Only people with the power can build the stardrives at the core of every ship, and the market for them is controlled by the Imperial government. Pirates would pay huge sums for one, so Hail's family enters the market. Aymon Sandreas is the least likely candidate to take the Imperial throne upon the retirement of his master, First Herrault. When Aymon steps too far out of line, his master sends him away to find the pirates who are flooding the galaxy with stardrives, destabilizing the Imperial government and the spacefaring Guild. Expecting an easy but boring task, Aymon's interest is piqued when the mysterious stardrive maker proves a clever and capable adversary. When Hail and Aymon finally come face to face, Aymon offers Hail an opportunity: work for me, in exchange for your life.
