The Strongest Centipede

All men are not created equal. It was a universal truth. Some were born with great looks, others were born with disabilities and others were born with unique powers known as quirks. With the rise of quirks, came the rise of heroes and villains.

Izuku Midoriya, a quirkless fourteenth-year-old boy who aspired to become a hero. He had green curly hair and wore freckles on his face. He was making his way home a little later than usual due to his classmates bullying earlier. Of course, by now, Midoriya was used to being bullied by his peers since he was four years old.

Flashback Ten years ago

"Kachan! Just because you have a powerful quirk, doesn't mean you can bully others!" Yelled the green curly-haired boy as he stood in front of a bullied kid.

"Hahaha! Come on Deku. What are you gonna do about it? Nothing!" Yelled Bakugo as he ignited explosions on his palm.

{Katsuki Bakugou: His quirk gives him the ability to sweat a nitroglycerin-like substance from his skin which he can ignite at will, creating an explosion}

"I'll...I'll stop being your friend a-and be really mad at you." Cried out Midoriya as he held up his fist in a defensive position. "From n-now on. I'll be your opponent!"

Bakugo glared at the insect in front of him. How dare this bug dare to challenge him in front of his classmates. He began to walk menacingly towards Deku as he raised his right arm prepared to blow him away.

Midoriya seeing the incoming attack raised his fist and tried to fight back but Bakugo was way stronger. Bakugo with an open palm blew Midoriyas's first away and with his left palm blew Midoriyas' stomach causing him to hit the ground harshly.

The bullied kid used this chance to run away as Bakugo and his goons we're busy with Midoriya.

Midoriya laid on the ground crying as Bakugo and his goons began beating on him. 'Please! Someone save me!' Midoriya thought while looking around only to see the other kids looking at him and laughing at his misfortune. After two minutes the attacks finally stopped.

"Don't you ever forget this Deku. You're weak. You're beneath me. Your nothing more than a pebble in my path. A quirkless loser like you will never become a hero." With that Bakugo left as did the rest of the kids.

*Sniff sniff. "Why are you so mean Kachan?" Midoriya picked himself up and began walking home. As he walked home he remembered Bakugo's words. 'You will never become a hero.' "Just you wait. I'm going to get a powerful quirk soon". Midoriya smiled.

"Your son is quirkless." Stated the doctor as he relaxed on his chair.

"Wh-" Midoriya couldn't believe it. He didn't have a quirk. But he could at least still become a hero, right?

"You can't become a hero."

Midoriya began letting loose tears as he looked down to his knees and bawled up his fist. He couldn't believe it. Now he couldn't become a hero?!

"Wait there has to be some kind of mistake right? I mean, both me and my husband both have quirks." Tried Inko, Midoriyas' mother.

"I'm afraid not. You see this." The doctor points to the x-ray. "People with quirks would have an extra joint in their foot, and as you can see your son does not."

Inko tried again. "But maybe he's just a late bloomer."

"Nope. Sorry, mam. Your son doesn't have a quirk"

Inko continued to argue with the man trying to see if perhaps the doctor made a mistake. However, Midoriya didn't hear this. All he kept hearing was 'You can't become a hero.' Over and over again. Midoriya had no idea what he was going to do.

Later That Night

Midoriya sat on his chair and continued to replay the scene of All might, the number one hero, saving people. His door opened to reveal his mother walking in carefully as though not to startle Izuku. Suddenly his chair slowly turns to Inko revealing a crying Deku.

Scared he asks his mother "m-mother, *sniff...can I become a-a hero as well? Like Al-All Might?" Asks Midoriya as he points to the computer behind him crying.

Inko began sobbing at her sons' question. She didn't want to destroy her sons' dreams but she knew that without a quirk, you couldn't become a hero. With nothing else to do she ran for her son and gave him a hug as they both cried. "I'm so sorry" cried Inko.

End Flashback

"Sniff...sniff" Midoriya tried to wipe away his tears and snot as he continued to walk home. Suddenly it had begun to rain. Midoriya began running and decided to cut his journey in half by taking the alleyways. After fifteen minutes of running, he finally neared his house however he stopped dead in his tracks as a blond-haired man in a white suit blocked his path. Midoriya couldn't see the man's face as the strange man wearing a hockey mask. Midoriya looked at the man's hand and notices bloodstains on them.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Was I in your way?" Asked the masked man.

Midoriya didn't answer but began twitching.

"Oh, are you perhaps lost?" The man began walking towards him.

Midoriya still didn't answer but began sweating.

"You know, little boys shouldn't be wandering all alone. There are a lot of bad and sick people out there." The masked man got closer and closer.

Midorya still didn't answer as he now began shaking.

"Oh? Are you cold? Or... are yOu AfraID?" The masked man was now standing directly in front of Midoryia, leaning over him.

Midoriya didn't say anything but started running in the opposite direction from the man in front of him. Midoriya was panting, sweating and pissing himself right now. He looked ahead to see people walking by and was about to shout for help but was pinned down to the floor.

"Now now. It's rude not to answer when someone is talking to you." Midoriya tried to struggle free but the man's grip was like iron. "Don't worry, you and I will get to know each other a lot better." The man removed his mask and licked the side of Midoriyas face while smiling.


"Gasp" Midoriya woke up quickly, hyperventilating, and began looking around only to see nothing but darkness due to the blindfold. He tried taking it off but his hands were bound behind his back. He started to cry as memories of what happened began to flood him.

"Well now. Look who's finally up." *CLANG The sound of metal hitting could be heard as well as the mask man's footsteps.

Midoriya heard him getting closer and began to shake violently on the chair.

"Hoho. Well someone is excited. Don't worry, I am too. The league of villains had ordered me to remain in the shadows, that my time was not yet. Oh, but it is my time. You see they just don't see it yet."

'League of Villains? What's he talking about?' Midoriya thought.

"Well, no matter at least I have you." His hand rested on Midoriyas' shoulder causing him to stop shaking. "So kid." He began rummaging around a tray, laying stuff on it and trying to put things in order. "You got a name?"

"..."

"Ah right where are my manners. The names Yamori, or what the heroes have taken a liking on calling me, Jason."

{Yamori/Jason: His quirk gives him the power to unleash two purple spiked tentacles from his back known as his kagune. However, when he gets pushed to the edge, he can use his kagune to form armor on specific parts of his body known as the kakuja. In this state, his strength increases however his speed diminishes. The Kakuja takes the appearance of a claw-like shape on his right arm.}

"Now, what's yours?" He waited for a response but got none. Sighing he turned and faced Midoriya. "It's fine. Your scared, it's perfectly understandable. You just need to loosen up."

Suddenly Jason grabbed Midoriyas' foot and using the pliers he cut off his toes one by one. Midoriya began screaming in pain and tried desperately to remove his foot from Jason's clutches but his grip was too strong.

"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh" Midoriya screams.

*PANTING HEAVILY. Jason breathes heavily in the mask.

Finally, Jason finished cutting off Midoriyas toes on one foot. "YOU GUNNA TELL ME YOUR NAME NOW?!" He then proceeds to slap Midoriya across the face.

"It- *Hiccup. Is...*sniff. I-izuku Mi-Midoriya" Midoriya said while crying.

Jason exhales a breath. "See. That wasn't so hard now was it?" Jason turns around.

"N-no." Midoriya answers.

Suddenly Jason puts a bucket under Midoriya and begins putting the toes he cut off in there. "What I put down now was a bucket. We're going to fill this bucket up with your toes using this." He holds up a needle containing a black liquid. "You can't see it but it's a needle. But the needle isn't what's important. What's important is what it's carrying. Now I don't understand the exact science behind it but you'll be able to grow back missing limbs and heal from wounds."

Suddenly Midoriya began shaking and trying to getaway.

"What's this? You don't want your limbs back. That's funny, with the other people they simply jumped at the opportunity to grow back their toes. Of course, they later regretted it." Jason began examining Midoriya closer until finally his eyes widen and he began howling in laughter. "Hahaha, you knew huh. Haha, I gotta say your one clever brat. Oh well, this treatment is non-negotiable so without further ado." He brings the needle closer to Midoriyas face. "Now as I said I don't know the exact science behind it but the injections only work if they are implanted in the eyes. So I'm gonna need you to open them for me." Jason unwraps the blindfold and tosses it aside. He tried to put it in but Midoriya shut his eyes tightly until finally Jason grew annoyed and ripped out his eyelids.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh" Midoriya screamed in pain as blood began dripping onto his eye and face.

"There we go, all better now." Jason proceeded to inject the serum into Midoriyas' left eye causing him to scream in pain.

After two minutes the serum started kicking in and his toes grew back as did his eyelid.

"My my my that was faster than usual. Normally the regeneration process takes longer than that. Oh well, this just means we get to spend more time together. *CRACK. Jason cracks his finger.

Midoriya lost track of time. He didn't know how long he had been here, but it was long enough to fill eight whole buckets with his toes. Jason had continued to cut off his toes over and over and ovEr and OvEr and OvER again. Midoriya was brought out of his crying when Jason asked

"How far have you counted?"

Gasping for breath he answered "Five hundred...and fifty-nine... five hundred... and fifty-two..."

"I'm going to fill this bucket up to the brim then we can take a break." Replied Yamori as he continues cutting off Midoriyas toes as they continue to grow back.

"Five hundred and... thirty...eight..."

'Yamori ordered me to count down by sevens starting from a thousand. At first, I didn't understand it but now I see it was to keep my sanity.

"Five hundred... and thirty-one"

Those numbers had become my life

"Five hundred... and twenty-four"

All the while Yamori continued to take my fingers and toes. Over and over, and over, and over, and OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER...and over.

"Five hundred... and ten..."

And each time, my fingers and toes grew back.

"Five...hundred...and three"

Fade to black

Midoriya opened his eyes to see himself back in his home. Looking around confused he hears his mothers voice call out to him.

"Izuku!"

"Mother? M-Mom I'm coming." He begins to run into a full sprint to his mothers' voice as he begins to let loose tears. He opens the door to see his mother smiling at him. She extends her arms for an embrace but before Midoriya could react a smaller version of himself runs through him and into his mothers' embrace. "What?" He looks around and sees how everything is different. "A-a memory?"

"that's RiGht" said a strange distorted voice.

Midoriya quickly turns around to see a distorted version of him standing there.

"Wha- wh-who are you"

"I'm yoU. I'm tHe yoU that has beEn constantly tormEnTed by your peEerS. The siDe that you doN't show." Said the distorted version as he walks up to Midoriya and holding him close.

Midoriya grew terrified "No...you Lie!"

"SeaRcH youR feelInGs you knoW this to bE true."

"It can't be"

"EveryOnE has a siDe we don't lEt otheRs seE. Let's taKe a trIp doWn memOrY laNe."

Suddenly the memory changes to a time when Midoriya and Bakugo played together. Midoriya smiled fondly at the memory while the distorted version looked angry.

"I remember this. We use to play on the swings when I was smaller."

"Yes, bUt yoU woulD alSo receIevE a feW bruiSes would'Nt yoU."

"We were just kids playing a little roughhousing, that's all."

The kids began to play but Bakugo fell from the top of the playground but was saved as Midoryia caught him. This led to an argument and Midoriya getting hit.

"NoT evEn a thaNk you"

"I don't need to be thanked"

"SO you rathEr get puncHeD"

Midoriya didn't answer.

The memory changes to another time when Bakugo and Midoriya were crossing a river but Bakugo fell off the rocks and into the water. Once more Midoriya tried to help but only revived bruises in return. The cycle continued over and over again until the distorted version made his point.

"You've made your point."

"YeS but I Don'T think you undersTaNd. YoU try tO saVe othErS buT noT yoursElF."

"My mother always told me it was better to receive pain than it was to inflict it on others."

Suddenly the memory changes to when Midoriya had asked his mother if he too could become a hero. Inko simply cried and hugged her son. She didn't say anything, she didn't need to. Midoriya understood perfectly what she thought.

"A youNg boYs dreAm shatteReD."

"It was reality. In this world, no one is created equal. Some people are born with powers while others are not."

"AnD soMe arE boRn inTo a riCh famIlY whiLe othErS muSt eat thE scrApS they leaVe behiNd."

Midoriya looked at the distorted version with pity but was brought out of his gaze as the memory continued on. His mother left the room and young Midorya left for his fathers' study.

"ThIs roOm"

"Yes. This was my fathers' study."

"DO you remeMbEr him?"

"No. He died before I could remember. All I know was that my father was the reason for my love of literature because of the books he left behind."

"I remeMbEr...loneliNeSs"

"Well, I had my mother's love and my departed father's books. My mothers an amazing person. She did all the housework and managed to put food on the table. She puts a smile on her face and has never troubled other people. Always treat other people with kindness.

"I seE...so she's tHe reaSon why we'Re in thIs mess.

Reality

Midoriya begins screaming as Yamori continues to cut off his toes with the pilers.

"You're an excellent toy, Izuku Midoriya" Yamori proceeds to take off his mask. "Want to know why I'm so... Infatuated with you? I'm unsure if you realized this or not, but you have exemplary regenerative abilities. You seem to have a high affinity for this unique power and it's all thanks to All For One's experiment." Yamori walks behind Midoriya "He's been creating monsters with multiple quirks using these serums. What you got was a small taste. I was really hoping you would have some sort of quirk I could steal using this" He reveals another serum. "You see this serum was uniquely made for me. I love stealing peoples quirks by eating them. But I suppose you made up for it with your resilience" *CRACK. Suddenly Yamori bulls out a bug from his pocket and held it near Midoriyas face. "Have you ever heard of the red-headed Chinese centipede? You won't mind if I let it wiggle around in your ear do you?"

Midoriya begins shaking and crying "N-No... Don't... Please, I beg you. No... I don't want it! Don't!" It gets closer to his ear. "Stop... Stop!" Yamori puts it into Midoriyas ear causing him to scream and jump up and down on his seat trying to break free to remove the centipede.

The centipede continued to crawl and bite as it tries to find a way out.

Yamori is beaming with excitement. "Oh, Ho! How fascinating! I want to kill you! Devour You!" Yamori with excitement begins clipping the pilers in his hand while Midoriya screams in agony. "Kill you... I'm gonna fucking kill you!" Yamori gets closer to Midoriyas face. " It's okay if I kill you now, right? Am I allowed to eat you now? Do you want me to kill you?" Midoriya continues to scream. "Do you want me to eat you!"

Midoriya is screaming and crying "Kill me... Please, kill me...

Dream

"Its betTeR to be huRt thAn to huRt othErS. HaVe you livEd your entiRe life belieViNg thAt liE?"

"My mother taught me that. So I-"

"NaivEly huNg onTo whAt she saId? YoU can't be seriOuS. HoW dull. Don't yoU waNt Yamori to buRn in hell? Are yoU suRe youR motHeR waS thE kiNd and amaZiNg perSoN yoU thought."

Midoriya looked at him in shock.

Reality

Yamori held up Midoriyas' head to see a woman and a baby chained to the floor and gagged, except the baby.

"All suffering in this world is created from an individuals incompetence. The person who told me that was a real piece of shit. But right now, I'm grateful to him. I've now understood something in these last few days with you, Midoriya. Forgetting your physical abilities, your mental shields are pretty tough as well. So I came up with a game. A mother and a baby." *CRACK. "You'll get to decide who lives and who dies!" *CRACK. "So, which one dies? If you don't choose, they both die. Hmm, maybe I should rephrase it". *CRACK. "WHICH ONE DO YOU WANT TO SAVE!" Yamori begins smiling wildly.

The mother looks up to Midoriya and nods her head.

Midoriya shakes "Why... Me? Why do I have to be the one that decides?"

Yamori grasps Midoriyas' head tightly "Come on now. Hurry up and choose."

"I can't be the one that decides something like that!" He begins crying. "Wouldn't that just be me killing them!?"

Growing frustrated Yamori squeezes Midoriyas head tightly. "Pick one! Pick one! Pick one! Pick one! The Woman? Or the baby? Right? Or the one on the left? Pick one!"

Trying to reason with the madman Midoriya says "There's no way I can pick one! If you have to kill someone, kill me!"

Growing tired of this Yamori let's go of Midoriyas head. "I see. Fine then." He walks towards the mother and child. "Watch closely, now." Standing in front of the pair he lifts up the baby by its head. "This one? How about this one!? No?" The mother begins panicking and trying to speak but it only comes out as muffle. "Come on! Pick one! I said pick one! The baby will die! Well, Midoriya!? Come on! Come on! Pick one! Pick one!" Yamori grasps tighter and the baby is now squealing while the mother tries to get Midoriyas attention. "Well? How about it!? Well!?"

Finally getting off the gag from her mouth the mother yells "Pick me! My baby... She's going to die! Pick me! Me! Pick me, Please!"

Midoriya could only look on in horror as he tried to free himself to save the child and the mother like how a hero would.

Suddenly a squishy sound is heard. It was silent for ten seconds then a bloodcurdling scream followed right after from the mother.

"Damn. She broke." Yamori drops the baby on the floor. The woman is screaming and crying as Yamori walks over to her. He lifts her by her head to face Midoriya. " It's all yoUr fault." Says Yamori as he proceeds to smash the woman's face in the ground over and over and OveR and OvER and OvEr again until finally... she died.

Dream

"I-its not my...No... It's all my fault. I couldn't save her. I'm just... too weak"

*Chuckling "ToOk yoU long enoUgH to realIzE it. SO thIs is iT huh. You'll just sIt theRe aNd blaMe yoursElF ovEr and oveR, but thAt doesn't chanGe anythInG. You don'T try tO chaNgE. It's all yoUr fauLt. That'S to bE expected I suppOsE. CoincidEnCe? An AcciDeNt? FaTe? We don'T beliEvE in faTe. It's simPlY a combinAtiON of circumstAnceS. But whO is thE one thAt creates the circumStANcEs? WHo? It's yoU." The distorted version begins chuckling. "All sufferInG in thIs worlD is boRn froM an indivIdUalS incompeTenCe. He's righT, isn't hE. ThIs fucKeD uP situatIoN starTed becaUsE yoU were idiotiCalLy naIvE of thE way the worLd woRkeD. YoU weRe a foOl. It's all beCauSe of yoU. It's betTer to bE huRt thAn to hurT othErS. That's why you're in thIs meSs. If onLy yoU weRe strOnG enoUgH to kill Yamori, the two woulD haVe livEd. If onLy yoU had choSen thE motHeR or the baBy, but you choSe neitHer. IF only yoU hAd poWeR."

The memory begins forming. Midoriya could be seen on the floor, powerless, getting beaten up. A kid with wings lifts Midoriya and let's go of him dropping him hard on the floor. Another kid with stretchable arms shove Midoriya. Finally, Bakugo comes and blows Midoriya away with an explosion.

"S-stop it!"

The memory changes but this time it's not a memory, but a vision. Yamori could be seen rising and choking Midoriyas' mother.

"M-mother"

Suddenly Yamori spurts out a tentacle and pierces his mother's stomach. Midoriya cried out as he tries to break free from the chains.

"YOu seE? ThIs iS tHe pAth yOu CHosE. WHy ArE yoU cRyiNg? YoU cHoSe tHiS dIDn't yOu?

"I didn't want this."

"YouR mOthEr faIleD YoU."

"M-mom. Why aren't you here? I-i tried, I tried doing it your way, but I-it hurts too much. I wish I could live for my sake! Let me be selfish!"

"EvEn iF iT mEaNt foRsAkInG YoUr MoTheR?"

"Even if it meant that!" His eyes shot open.

"EveN iF iT mEaNt HurTiNg SoMeOnE?"

"Even if it meant that!" The tears stop.

"EveN If It MeEaNt KilliNG HeR?"

"Even if it meant that!" He starts shaking the chains.

"GoOd bOy. SaCrIFicE eVrEyThInG. Those Who Can't SaCrIFicE AnYthing Can NEvEr ChAnGe AnYtHiNg. Will YoU Let AnYoNe HaRm YoU?"

"N-no I won't!"Suddenly the chains broke and Midoriya pounced on the distorted version.

"Oh? Are YoU GunNA lEt Me TaKe CoNtROl?" He says while looking up at Midoriya.

"No. Don't be ridiculous." Midoriya says while his left eye begins to glow red.

"ArE YoU SuRe YouR're NoT MaAkInG tHe WrOnG ChOiCe?"

"I'm not the one who's wrong. What's wrong... Is the world." Midoriya begins to devour the distorted version.

"To LiVe Is To DeVouR OthErs. EaT." Midoriyas hair turns from green to white and his nails become black as night.

I will... live.

Reality

Metal clang against each other as Yamori hits the pilers against his hand. "Midoriya" He walks closer to the chained victim. "Our special time has come to an end, unfortunately. It seems after a week the heroes managed to locate us and are now closing in. It's my job to deal with them, you see. It's the league of Villains goal to eliminate all opposing sides. This not only includes heroes, but rival gangs and civilians as well." He takes off his mask, grinning. "Midoriya! Let me take more from you!" An image of Midoriya's mother flashes. "Now that we're at the end of the line, let me eat you!"

Midoriya chuckles"PoOr YaMoRi. All ThAt BrAwN And No BrAiN."

Yamori frowns but then smiles. "Exceptional until the very end! Let me remove them for you!" Suddenly two tentacles spurt from his back ripping his shirt in the process. The tentacles aimed to kill Midoriya missed as Midoriya broke the chains restraining him. Smoke envelops them allowing for Midoriya to sneak around and jump on Yamori's back bringing him into a chokehold.

"Fuck you," Midoriya says and jumps off Yamori and puts some distance between the two of them. Yamori starts gasping for breath as Midoriya wipes the blood off his mouth. "That tastes foul."

"Why-you... bit me?" Yamori feels the blood pouring from the side of his head.

Midoriya continues on wiping the blood from his mouth" Yeah and you taste like rotten fish."

Yamori sent his tentacles to attack Midoriya however he saw that coming and proceeded to jump around dodging them. Midoriya after getting close enough tries to kick Yamori however is caught before he could land the blow.

"Haha I won't let go of your leg!" Yelled Yamori as he grasped tightly around Midoriyas leg. Midoriya, however, paid no attention to that as he twisted his entire body and kicked Yamori away, snapping his own leg in the process.

Midoriya stared unflinchingly at his own leg as it spun back to normal thanks to Yamori's healing serum. "You think, that after everything you put me through, something like that would hurt me?" Midoriya quietly asks.

"Kill you... I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you!" *CRACK "I'll fucking tear you to pieces!" Yamori's tentacles began to cover his right arm until finally, his arm was fully enveloped by it forming a giant kagune like claw "I'll devour you! I'll make a shitty miss out of you! I'll kill you!"

Midoriya raises his hand and cracks his finger like how Yamori would do it. *CRACK He smiles as the madman in front of him starts salivating.

Yamori rushes Midoriya and sends his kagune to crush Midoriya however he jumps around Yamori outclassing him in speed and maneuverability. After dodging Yamori's attack Midoriya kicks him in the stomach but barely manages to knock him back, forcing himself back in the defensive. Midoriya tries again but this time, he punches Yamori's abdomen. Once more, nothing. Yamori smiles as he pierces Midoriya with his kagune and starts to fling him around until finally slamming him against the wall. The wall dents inwards and debris falls from the ceiling. Yamori's smile turns to a frown as Midoriya walks out of the smoke unscathed.

Midoriya walks forward and smiles as he picks up a pipe that had fallen from the ceiling. "Now... It's my turn." *CRACK

Yamori roars out as Midoriya closes in on him and begins to beat Yamori with the pipe however Yamori's kagune manages to block most of it. Midoriya then proceeds to pierce Yamori's right arm. Unfortunately, his kagune is far too strong for any normal weapon to pierce so the pipe snaps in half, unable to pierce Yamori. Midoriya analyzes Yamori and notices that his kagune only covers his right arm and his head. However, the rest of the body is fair game.

Midoriya kicks back away from Yamori as Yamori had tried to slam him against the floor. Midoriya kicks up more pipes and prepares to throw them as though they were spears.

Yamori blinded by rage kicks off after Midoriya and prepares to pierce him however he's stopped as a pipe pierces his right leg and through the floor. Yamori screams out in pain and tries to take it out but is stopped when another one pierces his left arm and through the floor. Yamori looks up to see another one coming straight to his face and barely dodges it as it cuts his jaw. Looking back at Midoriya he sees him throwing more at him so he raises his right arm to block the incoming assault, but his arm could only block so much. After the attack was over Yamori could be seen standing but pierced by multiple pipes.

Midoriya walks over closer while carrying four pipes in his hands. Yamori no longer having the strength to stand falls face forward onto the ground but still conscious. He gasps for breath as the pain begins to cool down but suddenly he cries out in pain as another pipe pierces his left arm.

*CRACK "Count backward from one thousand by sevens." Said Midoriya

"..."

Another pipe pierces his right leg causing Yamori to scream in pain.

"I'll ask again. Count backward by seven from one thousand."

"..."

Another pipe pierces his left leg causing Yamori to scream in pain.

"I could do this all day. What's one thousand minus seven."

"..."

Another pipe is pierced into Yamori. Midoriya then proceeds to sit on top of Yamori's back and pulls out a needle from Yamori's pocket.

Yamori begins counting while crying "N-Nine hundred... and ninety-three... N-Nine hundred... and eighty-six... Nine hundred... and seventy-nine...Nine hundred and seventy-two..." Midoriya slaps the side of his own head trying to remove the centipede stuck in his ear while Yamori continues counting.

"You said you would devour other people's powers didn't you?" *CRACK "So you won't mind" He pulls out the centipede from his ear and drops it on the floor. "when I eat yours instead." He injects the needle into Yamori and bites into him while Yamori screams in pain.


A/N: Chapter was pretty dark but I enjoyed writing it so I hope you all enjoyed it as well. Don't know when I'll post a new chapter hopefully soon so I'll see you on the next one.
