Hey Guys! Welcome to Chapter 3!

*! These Characters are not mine and belong to My Hero Academia !*

When they first threw Izuku in the basement they made sure to chain his wrists so that he couldn't run. At the beginning of the torture, it was much like his bullying; Shigaraki even broke one of his ribs, but slowly it became worse.

Izuku soon meet Doctor, whom Shigaraki had mentioned. Doctor's 'sessions' with him were the worst. He liked to combine physical torture with psychological. He forced Izuku to stand and be still while he poked needles into his neck.

Being a doctor, he knew where he could place them, but Izuku couldn't move in case Doctor would hit something vital or a needle would shift. Those sessions always pushed Izuku to the edge.

Throughout their torture sessions they also liked to inject him with drugs that would make him sick and cause his head to ache. The withdrawals were a torture of their own. He wasn't given much food and water, so he'd always end up dry heaving on the floor.

Everything was awful. Izuku had no idea how long he'd been there, and he often wished that he'd never landed on that sludge monster. But every time he felt like giving up, thoughts of Mom and Kacchan would pop into his head. He needed to make it through for them, and for all the people he was going to help save by making items for heroes.

As if sensing Izuku's hopeful thoughts Doctor appeared in the doorway. Izuku couldn't help but flinch. He hated that he was afraid.

Izuku had met a lot of awful people, but none were as evil as Doctor. Izuku hated that man. He always came with needles. Those fucking needles. Izuku began to slightly tremble as Doctor laid out his equipment, growing worse as he pulled out a syringe.

Doctor noticed and grinned. "Now, now, Izuku. No need to worry. If everything goes to plan this will be our last session." Doctor pulled out some of his stainless-steel needles. "Once I inject you, I have to leave, so I thought that we would have some fun one last time." Izuku could see him enjoying his fear. "You know the drill. Stand up."

Knowing that resistance would make it worse, Izuku proceeded to stand. A few sessions ago, he'd discovered hooks on the wall. He used those hooks now to wrap his chains in a way that helped hold him up.

Izuku steeled himself as Doctor finished sterilizing his needles and took a step towards him. Izuku took a deep breath while the first needle was being inserted. It was a breathing technique that helped him fight the pain. He repeated it for needle after needle.

Doctor reached up to twelve needles before deciding it was enough. He then grabbed the syringe and prepped it. Izuku tried to move away, not wanting the drugs to cloud his mind again, but he was still wary of the needles in his neck. There was little he could do to fight as Doctor injected him with a red fluid.

After the liquid was injected Izuku froze. There was nothing to fight anymore and continuing to struggle could move the needles. He held still as Doctor pulled them out, using the same breathing exercise to brace himself for the tugging sensation they left.

Once all the needles were out and once again placed in Doctor's carrying case, Doctor looked back at Izuku. "I'll let the drug have a few minutes. I'll be back later Izuku."

Izuku crumpled back to the wall, he watched Doctor leave and eventually, his eyes began to burn. The pain continued to intensify over time and a massive headache joined causing Izuku to scream in pain. Tears that had already been streaming down his face multiplied.

He tried to think of other things, of nice memories of Mom and Kacchan, but everything was muddled. The longer the process went on, the less it hurt and the more fogged his brain became.

He could remember his life before, but there was a detachment from it. It made him feel different. Being a hero now seemed like the stupidest idea ever. Being a villain sounded much more fun, and he was determined to be the best villain there ever was.

Izuku was but a memory. Now Deku was in control.

Kurogiri marveled as he watched 'Deku'. He couldn't see much change in personality. Although the boy seemed more confident as he started conversing with their new recruits as soon as he was brought upstairs.

Physical differences were more evident. He was skinnier, paler, and all together weaker. Plus, his eyes which used to be a calm, innocent green were now bright red.

He still held the light that Kurogiri had seen when they kidnapped him a month ago, but it was different in a way that he couldn't put his finger on.

Kurogiri thought his assessment over until he saw tiny dots along Deku's neck. Focusing a bit more he could see that those tiny dots were scars, and they were all over his neck.

The guilt Kurogiri had been feeling for the past month reached for him again. He didn't know what Deku experienced but he knew that the boy didn't deserve it. So far it seemed that Deku's life was little more than abuse after abuse. How the young boy still had the strength to want to be a hero was a puzzle, but it didn't matter now.

Shigaraki called Kurogiri over, so he turned his attention away from Deku. Following Shigaraki to another room, which they used for meetings, he saw that Doctor was already there.

"Kurogiri, Doctor is going to brief us on a few points of Deku's condition. Listen."

Doctor took his cue, "Thank you, Shigaraki. Deku is a special case. Most people would have turned to villainy of their own free will after the first week, but Deku lasted a whole month and I had to use drug manipulation. He strongly wants to be a hero and the formula was very complicated." He pulled out a syringe of red liquid. "This is the steroid that I've been injecting into him. It turns his hope to be a hero into that of a villain. However, he will not kill anyone, and I have strong suspicions that if he were to see someone in mortal danger, despite the drug, he will intervene to save them."

"How is he a villain if he won't kill?" Shigaraki began a tantrum.

"Now, Shigaraki, remember the whole point of join the league was for his analysis skills and information on heroes." Kurogiri reasoned.

Doctor tried to move the meeting along, "Yes. Despite my best efforts this is one thing I can't change. Now moving on, there is another issue."

"Another?" Shigaraki interrupted.

"Yes. The drug isn't permanent. Currently I don't know how long it lasts, but I have put in an indicator. If his eyes are red, he is a villain. When the turn back to green, he needs to be given the steroid again."

"So now we have to have someone always watching the brat."

"It's ok Shigaraki. I'll keep an eye on him." Kurogiri intervened on another tantrum.

"Tch, fine."

Kurogiri released a breath.

"Well, that's all I have to share, so I will take my leave." Doctor excused himself.

Kurogiri turned back to Shigaraki, "Should I ty to contact him now?"

"I don't get why that brat needs to be trained by him. He'd be just fine on his own."

"You know that isn't true. With the way Deku is now he couldn't stand against a kitten. He's too weak from torture and starvation. That's why Master wants him to be trained." Kurogiri reasoned

"Fine. You can call him." Shigaraki begrudgingly agreed.

"Master will be pleased."

After finishing his call, Kurogiri approached Deku and the new recruits. He wasn't yet sure what to make of Toga and Dabi. They hadn't caused trouble yet, but he wasn't sure what their goals were. Dabi seemed to hold a grudge against Endeavor, while Toga was a character that he couldn't make out, but he knew that she really liked blood.

Walking up to them, he cleared his throat to gain their attention. All three sets of eyes turned on him. "Greetings. I am to inform you to pack. All three of you are to be trained by another villain, so that you may benefit the cause more."

"Training?" Dabi asked.

Deku had steel in his eyes and looked determined.

"Yes training. Now hurry up; we don't want to keep Stain waiting."

All Might was confused as he jumped across the city. He'd just gotten off the phone with his friend, Naomasa Tsukauchi, a detective, who asked him to come down to the station.

He was almost there and was worried. Assignments came from the agencies most of the time, plus Naomasa knew about his condition. He'd only call him if it were something serious.

Transforming back to his civilian state All Might walked through the two sets of doors as Toshinori Yagi. Ignoring the officers busy with work around him, he walked to Naomasa's office. He knocked before opening the door to find Naomasa surrounded by papers at his desk.

"Hey, Naomasa." He greeted.

Naomasa looked up, "Oh, Toshinori, you're here. Great!"

"What do you need help with?"

Naomasa grabbed something off his desk and walked to Toshinori, "Do you know this kid? I think he was attacked by that slime villain you fought." HE was holding an image of a green haired boy with a bright smile.

"Ah. Yes, I saved Young Midoriya from Sewer a month ago."

"Do you know what happened to him afterward?"

"Afterward?"

Naomasa sighed, "Follow me." Toshinori followed him to his desk where he started to organize his things. "Izuku Midoriya was reported missing a month ago." Toshinori froze while Naomasa continued, "From what we've gathered, with a lot of help from one of his friends, is that on the day of his disappearance one of his bullies threw him off the roof, which led to him landing on Sewer, who then tried to overtake him until you saved him, but we're missing what happened to him after that because he never arrived back at home."

He never went home? Toshinori's thoughts were running wild with guilt. Was this my fault? Is it because I told him he couldn't be a hero?

"Did he run away?" Toshinori asked.

"Possibly, but I don't think so. From everything I've heard it would be out of character. He would never abandon his mom."

"His mother." Toshinori thought aloud. Midoriya's mother had never even crossed his mind. "How is she taking this?" He inquired.

"As well as can be expected. I told her that I would find Izuku."

"You mentioned one of his friends gave you information?"

"Yea he got a voice recording of the bully admitting to throwing Izuku off the roof and was the one that told us there was sludge where Izuku should have landed."

"What's his name?"

"Katsuki Bakugou."

"I want to meet him."

"Ok, give me a bit and I'll give you his address."

"Thank you, Naomasa."

"It's no problem. Maybe he has more information on Izuku's disappearance. Could you ask him for me?"

"Of course."

Naomasa left to get the information while Toshinori sat in thought. Katsuki Bakugou seemed to be very resourceful, and his actions were heroic. He seemed a worthy candidate for one for all. Now he had to meet him in person.

Hey Guys! I'm sorry this chapter took so long. School kind of exploded on me. I will try to be faster with chapter 4 I have already started writing it. Hopefully I can get chapter 4 out sooner.
