Hello! Again! so here is chapter 2!
okay so I'm guessing some of you are curious about what quirk Izuku will be having. Well, I have decided not to give him one. He will remain quirkless and will instead be using his own knowledge and own abilities.
The timeline also will not be following the timeline in the Canon.
On with the story!
Chapter 2: Encounter With the Scientist
Kurogiri walked down a dark narrow twisting flight of stairs, a single lit candle in his hand. The walls around him were made of thick stones and were slightly damp as water from above dropped. He was currently heading towards one of the restricted areas of their organization, only a few could enter this area, and by few he meant, Shigaraki, him and Sensei. He stopped in front of a heavy metal door, at the bottom of the stairs. He gave a hard knock on the door before he called "Midoriya, may i please come in? I have something I wish to discuss with you"There was a buzzing noise before a voice suddenly spoke through a rectangular radio at the top of the door.
"Is that you Kurogiri-san? Why the sudden visit?" it asked.
"Yes it is me, May I please come in?" There was a long pause before the voice spoke again "Alright, give me a few seconds." there was a click before the radio was turned off.
The warp user stood in front of the door for a few seconds before he heard metals shift and hit each other. The door opened a few inches before a pair of emerald eyes peeked through the small gap "Kurogiri?"
Kurogiri looked at the pair of eyes "Do not worry Midoriya, it is only me..." he reassured the person before the door opened "I-I'm sorry, I thought you were with someone..." Izuku apologized while scratching his messy green hair.
If Kurogiri did not have black mist covering his face then Izuku would be able to see him frown upon seeing the young teen's messy state.
Izuku's hair was a total mess, his emerald eyes, covered with a pair of circular glasses, had shadows under them, telling the warp user that the teen hadn't had any decent sleep for days, his clothes were a total mess as well, his lab coat was stained with blood and his white shirt was covered in dirt and grime.
"Please come in, I apologize for the mess, I just recently finished my latest patient..." he said as he let the warp user in.
Kurogiri watched the quirkless teen walk over to his computer before Izuku sat himself down his revolving chair "I'm really sorry I haven't been to headquarters for awhile, I've been having trouble down here ever since Sensei sent me the new batch for this month..." he said as he rubbed his eye tiredly.
"I understand Midoriya, however it seems Shigaraki has grown more irritated since your absence, I mean, he is quite fond of you..."
Izuku can't help but laugh. Shigaraki Tomura is their leader in the alliance, he and Izuku have been friends, at least that's what Izuku thinks, ever since sensei took the young quirkless teen into the alliance.
"Sounds like Tomura alright." he joked. Kurogiri was about to speak again when he suddenly heard a blood curling stream. Izuku jolted before the teen stood up from his chair and rushed to another iron door at the corner of the room. He slid open a small window to take a look only to jump back as a bloody hand suddenly grabbed hold of his shirt and began to pull him against the iron door.
Kurogiri made a move to hep him but stopped when Izuku yelled "Don't! If you come any closer then the liquid may stuck to you!" he warned him as he pushed against the iron door so he can have enough space to reach for a syringe gun strapped on his belt.
"Let me go! Make it stop! Give it back! Give my quirk back!" it wailed and screamed.
Izuku cursed as he cocked the gun, aimed it through the window and pulled the trigger. He heard it it come in contact with flesh, before the grip on his shirt loosened. He heard the creature gasp and choke before everything went silent. Heaving a big sigh, Izuku pushed the limp hand back through the window before closing it then looked at his wrist watch "Damn, only 20 minutes..." he muttered before he turned towards Kurogiri who stood there, seemingly unfazed by the entire thing.
"I'm sorry you had to see that." He walked over to his desk, placed the gun on top before he removed his glasses and began to wipe them "Things have been slow with my new serum, i haven't got the right parts yet, but in due time I'm sure Sensei will be happy with the final results." he beamed.
"Moving along, I'm afraid I have simple favor for you to do." The warp used spoke. The scientist looked at him in confusion before he asked what it was "It seems Shigaraki was not too pleased with the new recruits today and has decided to storm off. I fear he may do something reckless if left alone too long."
Ah, so Tomura has another temper tantrum "D-Does it really have to be me?" Izuku laughed nervously, sure he was one of the few people that could calm Tomura during his tantrums but he didn't really wish to leave his laboratory right since something might happen to his specimen while he is gone.
"I can not for my appearance may draw too much attention, Sensei can not as well for obvious reasons, so that leaves you." he replied. Kurogiri waited for an answer before he heard a low growl, he took a step back, unfazed by the sudden animosity the teen displayed.
"Dammit! Can't you see I'm busy?!" Izuku snarled at the warp user. His emerald eyes were wild and unfocused "I already you told that I can't! Would you prefer I-" Izuku stopped mid-sentence before he clenched his jaws. His scarred hands tightened into a fist until his nails dug into his skin deep enough to draw blood. As soon as he got his bearings, he slightly leaned against the table before he sighed and looked back at Kurogiri with an apologetic smile "I'm sorry, I nearly slipped, I..."
"It's alright Midoriya." Kurogiri said as he walked forward and gave him a reassuring pat on his shoulder.
"I...I think it's best for me to go out for awhile, the chemicals in this room must be affecting me in some way..." he smiles weakly "I'll go look for Tomura if that's what Sensei wants, but for now, would it be alright if you could warp us to headquarters? I think I might need something to eat, and some new clothes as well." he laughs as Kurogiri helped him towards the door.
As Kurogiri helped him up the flight of stairs, Izuku can't help but feel guilty about what happened awhile ago. Not many people in the alliance know this but if Izuku was pushed into a corner or snaps, he tends to, what people would call, go savage on them. He would snap at some point and would have the tendency to thirst for blood and human parts, and by human parts meaning, dissecting any living being that he wishes. So to prevent any more 'episode', as called by many in the alliance, Sensei had granted Izuku his own underground laboratory where he can freely dissect and experiment on any living being he wishes. Izuku was reluctant at first, but after accidentally slaughtering a member of the alliance he finally agrees.
It was strange at first, for him, being alone underground, but eventually he got used to things in the laboratory. Of course being the little genius he was, he took advantage of all his free time in the lab and began to develop different kinds of serums, one of those was serums that can prevent someone from using their quirk. He couldn't test it on himself, though sometimes he did, since he didn't have a quirk, but after telling his research to Sensei, the man was quite pleased and quickly delivered everything the child needed, which also included a living human being. Izuku was delighted, and immediately got to work.
Up to this day he still continued his experiments, others tend to find it creepy, but if it kept him occupied and prevented him from slaughtering another member then they have nothing to complain about.
Izuku had no idea when they got to headquarters but as soon as the rich aroma of cooked beef entered his nose, his stomach gave out a loud grumble. He blushed in embarrassment.
"Why don't you take a shower while I prepare your meal?" Kurogiri suggested which the teen agreed to and headed towards the backroom.
-30 minutes later-
"Thanks again Kurogiri-san." Izuku happily said as he finished the last piece of meat on his plate. He stood up, stretched before he took the white windbreaker jacket on the counter and began to wear it "I'm going to look for Tomura right now, I'll send you a text once I find him." he placed a black hat on his head before heading over to the door "I'll be back as soon as I can." he said before he left.
Kurogiri stares at the door for awhile before he went back to cleaning his glassware, seemingly unaware of the pair of eyes looking t him in one of the vents.
It took him longer than expected but, for some reason, Izuku ended up in Kiyashi-Ward shopping mall. He took note that this was the only possible place Tomura could have wandered to, seeing as heroes and other students from U.A would spend their time here once in awhile, and he figured Tomura must have been frustrated from the last failed plan, so he decided to come here and scout for the students who've ruined it.
As Izuku wandered around, he can't help but feel the nostalgia this mall brought. This mall nearly had the same structure and design to the same mall where his mother died. His hands twitched upon remembering the painful memory. He remembered how, after being discharged, he was sent to the nearest orphanage where he, again, was continuously bullied for being quirkless. He remembered how no adult wanted to adopt a quirkless child like him. He remembered how he finally snapped and had his first 'episode' after a kid told him being quirkless was the reason his mother and father died. He remember the pleasure of seeing all those people in the orphanage scream in terror as he butchered them into pieces. He remembered how he burned down the building, leaving no evidence of the slaughter and how he grinned as he watched it burn to the ground.
Izuku' quickly sat himself down on a bench and grabbed his trembling hand with his other hand and bit his lower lip, trying his best not have another episode in public. Sensei will surely kill him if he were to draw attention to himself. He kept his hoodie on as the trembling slowly recedes. He inhales before he let out a heavy sigh to calm his nerves.
"Hey, are you alright?" a voice asked, Izuku turns and saw two teens looking at him with concern "We saw your hands trembling really badly, we thought you were injured or you needed help..." a girl with light brown hair, that reached up to her nape, and chocolate brown eyes, said.
Right beside her was another teen with a burned mark on his face and a white and red colored hair, the color splitting perfectly at the middle. It took Izuku a minute to figure out that these were the same students who fought during the sport festival, meaning they are probably the same age as him.
If he recalled correctly, the boy's name was Todoroki Shouto, he has both his father and mother's quirk which means he can create both ice and fire depending on which side it was on his body. The girl must be Uraraka Ochako, a gravity user and the same person who fought Kacchan.
Izuku huffed remembering his hot headed childhood friend but decided to brush the thought aside. He smiled at the two and replies "No it's alright, I just felt a bit dizzy all of a sudden, I just got out of the hospital you see." he lied.
"Oh is that so, then maybe we should take you to the mall clinic, it's no that far from here, if you can't walk I can use my quirk so you won't really have to force yourself." Uraraka said as she looked at the stranger in concern.
Izuku shook his head "No, it's alright, I just went here to look for a friend, I lost him on my way here and I thought maybe he got here before me." now that he wasn't lying.
Todoroki stared at the male for a second before he spoke "Aren't you hot from those thick clothes of yours? I mean considering the weather today and how you just got out of the hospital, wouldn't it be more convenient for you to wear something lighter?" he asked.
Damn this kid was sharp. The teen shook his head and immediately came up with a lie "Not at all, My quirk prevents me from getting warm, but it also causes my body temperature to become lower than normal, that's why I need this jacket to keep it under control, If I don't wear this then I might end up freezing my own heart." Todoroki quickly bought it while Uraraka grew more concerned.
"W-well we can't really leave you here alone, especially when you just got out from the hospital..." The brunette said "U-Umm, why don't we accompany you until you find your friend?" she beamed while Izuku inwardly panicked. How was he suppose to find Tomura with two heroes in training tailing after him?
Izuku nervously smiled at them "T-That's really kind of you b-but I-" He was cut short when he felt his phone vibrate. "E-Excuse me..." he said and picked up his phone. he looked at the caller and nearly cried in joy when he saw who the caller was "H-hello?"
"Izukun, what are you doing with those kids?" Tomura hisses at the other side of the phone.
Izuku felt a shiver run down his spine when he felt anger in Tomura's voice "I-I'm really sorry but I got lost and tried to find you, a-and..." he tries to explain to the leader but he couldn't seeing as the two U.A student were standing beside him.
"Keep them occupied." Tomura suddenly said making the teen freeze "W-what? But Sensei said I'm not suppose to..."
"Keep them occupied until I send you a text" with that Tomura quickly hang up. Izuku looked at the caller ID in annoyance before he turned back to the two teens "I-I'm really sorry, that was my friend, he said he had some business to take care of and won't be here until afternoon." he sheepishly said as he tried to hide the panic growing in his chest.
"Is that so? Then if your friend won't be here until afternoon, maybe you could come join us?" Uraraka said while Izuku nervously nodded "I-if that's alright with you two..." he mutters.
"Not at all, we're happy to help!" she beamed while Todoroki nodded.
"A-Alright, would you like to go anywhere?" he stuttered.
Above them, Tomura watched from the second floor as Izuku was dragged away by the two U.A student. He was quite shock when he spotted the teen talking to the two. As soon as he spotted their resident scientist he quickly called him and demanded what he was doing with those two kids.
Izuku tried to explain to him but was unable to due to the attention he was getting from the two heroes in training. Tomura listened as the teen panicked and stuttered while thinking of a way to get out of the mall without getting Izuku involved. He clicked his tongue, thinking that the only possible way they could get out was if one of them were to act as the bait, and it sure as hell wasn't going to be the scientist. He scratched his neck thinking of anymore possible ways he could serve as a distraction and at the same time keep a low profile. He stopped scratching before a sinister smile crossed his face.
"Katsuki Bakugou..." he mutters before he started walking to where he saw the teen awhile ago.
'How did I ended up in this situation?' Izuku inwardly groaned as he walked between Todoroki and Uraraka.
"Which reminds me, We never got your name, I'm-" the gravity user was about to introduce herself when Izuku interrupted "Uraraka Ochako, I know, I saw your fight, you were amazing." he complemented making the brunette blush in embarrassment. He then turned to the taller male and said "And you must be Todoroki Shouto, congratulations on getting second place. Your fight was amazing as well" Todoroki responded with a nod.
"And you? What's your name?" The ice and fire wielder asked as his eyes bore into the Izuku, who kept hi hoodie on.
"U-Um I'm..." Izuku thought for a moment before he hastily replied "Kurogiri Deku!" he blurted. He inwardly screamed in panic. Good job Midoriya izuku!
"Kurogiri?" Todoroki asked, trying to remember where he heard that familiar name.
"Neh, Kurogiri-san, which school are you attending?" Uraraka asked, happy that she finally got to know the other teen's name.
"O-oh, I-I'm actually home schooled. My guardians likes to keep a close eye on me because of my poor health..." Izuku wasn't sure how long he could keep lying, mainly because he was running out of lies.
"That's a bit sad, don't you feel lonely sometimes?" The brunette asked while Izuku shook his head "Not at all, My guardians are quite fun to be with and my tutor is also very friendly, he also has another student, my friend that called me awhile ago, he would sometimes join in our study session." he explained "But enough about me, what's U.A like?" to be honest he already knew what the school was like, he just didn't want these two to keep bugging him with more questions.
The three continued to talk. Izuku found out that Todoroki and Uraraka's class were going to some kind of summer camp along with their entire class, he mentally took note to report this later to Sensei as soon as he got back. The three visited several shops until they stopped for a few minutes in a trinket shop so Uraraka can check if they have any bug repellent.
As Izuku was looking through a shelf of books and maps, Todoroki can't help but notice how he always seem to keep his hoodie on through their entire encounter. Why was he hiding his face? Did he have a scar on his face just like him? Or maybe he was just shy, seeing as he just met them. The ice and fire user walked closer to the smaller teen before he spoke "Kurogiri-san..." Izuku turned his head to answer him but froze in shock as he felt the teen suddenly tug down his hoodie to reveal his thick green hair.
Izuku did the only thing he could think off at that moment, he grabbed the nearest object he could find, which was a dictionary, and threw it right at Todoroki's face before pulling his hoodie back on. Said person was not expecting the sudden negative reaction before he yelped in pain and suprise when the book came in contact with his face. He took a step back and held his throbbing forehead.
"To-Todoroki-san, I-I"m sorry! I didn't mean-" Izuku was in full out panic mode as he watched the teen groan in pain.
"What's going on?" He heard Uraraka say as she approached them. Izuku tried to explain but stopped when he felt his phone vibrate, he quickly opened his phone and saw a text from Tomura.
GET OUT. NOW.
"I have to go..." he quickly said as he ran past the two students.
"Ah! Wait Kurogiri-san!" Urarakas tried to call him back but quickly lost him in the crowd, she turned to Todoroki who was nursing his forehead before she asked "What exactly did you do to make him so upset?" she asked. Todoroki said nothing as he tried to lessen the pain he was feeling on his head.
Meanwhile, right after Izuku and Tomura were able to meet up in a far away alley, both decided to return to headquarters.
"You should have never fucking put your guard down, dumbass..." Tomura lowly growled at him while Izuku merely laughed sheepishly "I guess it was kind of my fault, I haven't had any decent sleep for days, I guess I was tired..." he said.
"You are lucky that the public has yet to know you." The grey head pointed out. Izuku can't help but agree with him, he was lucky that no one knew him or else he would have been easily spotted and arrested.
Sensei actually hasn't given him any permission to act out yet, according to him he wishes to keep Izuku's existence a secret until further notice. So basically, the teen has yet to have his villain debut.
The two continued to talk until they managed to get back to headquarters. They walked up the flight of stairs leading to where Kurogiri was waiting for them before they stopped at the door. Izuku was about to turn the knob when he heard muffled yelling from the inside. Did the other members came for a visit? the green head thought as he opened the door. Imagine his slight shock to see an unknown man, struggling against his restraints and growling, while Kurogiri was peacefully cleaning up his the counter.
"Welcome back you two." the warp user said as they entered. Izuku quickly sat down while Shigaraki, not even minding the man, left and went to his room. Izuku kept staring at the man before he asked the black mist "Who's that?" he pointed at the man.
"It seems this man has been holding a grudge against the villain alliance and has found a way to find our hideout, I believe he wished to avenge an old friend of his that he believes we have abducted and killed few weeks ago." He explained while Izuku studied the man
"What's this man's name?"
"I believe it's Yamada Shiro." Kurogiri replied. The scientist thought for awhile before something clicked inside his brain "Correct me if I'm wrong but does his quirk happen to be gunpoint?" he asked in which the black mist nodded.
"His quirk allows him to turn his limbs into any guns he wishes, his quirk is nearly similar to my latest patient..." Izuku mumbles. Kurogiri watches the teen mumble for awhile before he saw the teen turn to him wish a pleased smile "How tough are his restraints?"
Kurogiri blinked before he answered "It's been dosed with some anti-quirk serum..."
"Good..." Izuku stood up from his chair and walked closer to the man before crouching down "I must say, i have to commend you for finding our hide out without a hero's help." he said. The man glared at him and tried to speak but was unable to due to the tape on his mouth.
"Kurogiri-san told me you came here to avenge your friend? Might I ask if your friend so happens to have a scar on his upper arm?" Izuku politely asked. What he did not expect was for the man to suddenly shift forward and deliver a headbutt right at the scientist's nose.
Izuku lost his balance and fell on his rear as he held his reddening face. Kurogiri made a move to help the teen but stopped when he suddenly heard him laugh. This was bad, at least for the
"Ehe..hehehhe..ahahahhahah! I believe that's a yes then! ehehehe..." Izuku said as he covered his face with his scarred hands "You know I was thinking of letting you see your friend but I guess I changed my mind..." Izuku kept looking down as his hand went to his pocket and pulled out a pair of black gloves "With that kind of stamina and endurance I'm sure you'll make a wonderful specimen for my next research." He began to slip the gloves on.
The man could feel sweat run down his face as he listened to the teen's voice. It felt like he was talking to an undertaker or, possibly, even death itself. the way the teen spoke felt like he was going to get killed the next minute he tries to say anything that could anger his captor.
True to the man's thoughts, Izuku clapped his gloved hands together and he could see sparks of electricity surge through his hands "Don't worry I'll let you see your friend soon but first..." The man's blood ran cold as Izuku looked up at him with wild unfocused eyes and a sinister smile "You need to learn to submit to me..."his hands reached for the man's head "You will make a wonderful test subject." He touched the man's head before a surge of electricity began to travel from his finger tips to his victim. The man struggled, screamed and squirmed as he felt his body being electrocuted to death. Izuku merely watched him with a wicked smile, thrill and excitement ran through his body as the thought of opening the man's lifeless body came to mind.
Moments later, Kurogiri saw the man stop moving and went limp. He watched Izuku pull his hand away, stood up and turned to smile at him "Kurogiri-san will you please deliver this man to my lab? And tell Sensei I won't be needing another batch." he removed his gloves and stuffs them back in his pocket.
Kurogiri nodded as he quickly warped the body. He knew if he angered Izuku when he's in one of his episode he would end up waking up in his dissection table the next day. He wasn't quite fond having his inside being opened, especially by someone who is currently unstable and is obsessed with quirks, thank you very much.
"You have not changed at all Midoriya..." He sighs as he opens a gate for the other.
Izuku simply smiles "You're too kind Kurogiri-san, but really, change is something I wish to do, not something I wish to be."
