He stood in the center of his room, lost in thought... It had been 2 days since he lost his path. He stared at the intricate knot he had suspended from the ceiling.
*Flashback*
Deku was walking to his dorm room after his workout. It was Saturday morning and they didn't have any classes. He looked at his watch, and it read 7:45 a.m. He decided to wake up his girlfriend of almost 6 months, Ochako Uraraka. When he was at her door, he had heard a creaking from inside. 'She must already be awake.' That's when he heard it. "Baby you have to wake up... It is morning and Deku will be here soon." That was undoubtedly Uraraka, but who was she talking to. But then he heard a second voice, "It'll be ok babe, why don't you tell the fucking nerd that you aren't even his anymore?" It was Bakugo... What is Bakugo doing in her room? And why is she calling him babe? Then it hit him with every word "I know love, I am going to tell him that today. Then we don't have to keep sneaking around. But you have to go so I can talk to him" There was a quick shuffling and he couldn't move a muscle. Despair had glued him to the door frame. Bakugo opened the door to be met face to face it the boy he had bullied for years. "Deku?" The hallway grew 10 times colder as Deku spoke. "So... This is how it is, huh? You sneaking behind my back? I expected you to do something so low Kachan... But you, Ba-" He cut himself off, choking back the tears, "But you OCHAKO, I would have never guessed it" She shouted, "Deku, I can explain!" The commotion had seemed to awaken their sleeping classmates, as Iida and Yayorozu, along with some of the other 1-A student's had made their way out of their dorm rooms. Iida moved to the source. Seeing Bakugo and Uraraka's state of dress, and Midoriya standing in the doorway, he pieced together the situation. "Bakugo! Explain yourself this instant! Why were you in Uraraka's room?" Before either of the 2 guilty parties could speak, Midoriya intervened. "Isn't that obvious Iida? They spent the night together. And I can only guess that they had sex." Bakugo's face twisted for a split second to one of sick pride. But it grew serious in an instant as he spoke for the first time since announcing that he was at the door. "Yeah? So fucking what if me and her fucked? Not like you ever actually pleased her, you quirkless piece of shit." His voice didn't have its usual violence, because he knew he had won. In a flash Bakugo was thrown from the door and Midoriya currently had his knee in the spiky blonde's stomach, knocking the wind from him. The students were shocked at their broccoli haired cinnamon roll. Kirishima, Shoji, Todoroki, and Iida tried to restrain him, but Deku was too strong for even the four of them. He hit Bakugo in the face and a gastly crunch echoed through the halls as Bakugo's jaw gave way to the superhuman strike. He then removed himself from the now slumped boy as he held his jaw and stomach. Uraraka then ran to him, trying to see how bad his wounds were. Deku then shook off his would be captors like child's play. Uraraka had tears in her eyes, whispering that she was so sorry... Midoriya couldn't tell if it was directed at him or the crumpled, now unconscious Bakugo. He didn't care at this point. He walked away toward his room, ignoring the protests of his friends for him to return. He locked himself in his room, not bothing to come out to attend Monday's classes or even to eat. Teachers had visited, trying to talk to the door in hopes of eliciting a response from inside. All-Might had even spent almost the whole day sitting with his back to the door, trying to talk to his successor... But not even that got a deafening silence from inside.
* Flashback End *
On the third day, a click click was heard. Momo had taken up watch for the day, and she witnessed the deadbolt unlocking... But the door did not open. She waited a minute before slowly entering the room. It was dark, so she flipped the light switch to be met by Midoriya hanging from the ceiling his body jerking in violent contractions. She screamed and and made a knife with her quirk. Using the same chair he had presumably used to get off the ground, she quickly cut him down. She screamed and called the faculty and 110. All-Might was there in an instant, picking up the boys limp body and feeling for a pulse. It was weak, but he was still alive.
