You starred at the scarred man before you. He was still rambling on about things that supposedly happened years ago and it was hard for you to keep up, let alone understand it all.

'Even if what he say's is true, what's the point in all of this..'

Trying to think that far back reminded you of the kitchen incident, which seemed so long ago now, and you stopped yourself not wanting to pass out in the middle of this conversation.

'I don't remember anyone that looked like him..But something about him always nagged at the back of my mind..like something I should remember but can't.'

He was no longer talking and was now starring at you with an indifferent expression. You had no idea what was going through his mind but, '..I should just tell him.'

"…Remember when I passed out in the kitchen, back at the bar?..Well that was because I was thinking about a dream that I had. But it wasn't really a dream..it was a memory from my past..I pushed myself to see more and as soon as I remembered someones hair color, that's when I collapsed."

"..But you remembered something?"

"..Yeah, but..it's only a small piece to a much bigger puzzle...I can remember what I felt, like my emotions..but it's like watching an old video of myself except everything is out of focus."

"..So no specific details?..The house or the people?"

You shook your head 'no', "All blurry."

He seemed frustrated and you weren't sure if it was because of what you said or because of your faulty memory.

"..I'm sorry Dabi-san."

The sound of his phone ringing startled you as he pulled the device from his pants pocket. Looking at the screen he made a sound of annoyance and turned back to you. "I'll be back."

You didn't move after he left, too lost in thought to do anything but sit there and stare out the window. '..I don't see a reason for him to lie about something like that. There's nothing to gain from it…Unless it's part of some sick twisted game he wants to play at my expense..'

'..If we knew each other fourteen years ago, oddly specific number..He's not much older than me so..We would've been kids. I don't recall anyone that looked anything like him at the foster home or school…I should ask him if he had those scars back then cause that would make a difference in his appearance…' A blush warmed your cheeks at the thought of those brilliant blue orbs and unmarked smooth pale skin.

'Honestly I think he's handsome as he is but damn..my imagination is making me want to remember..' You closed your eyes and let yourself relax as you laid down on the bed. 'With eyes like his you'd think I'd remember them..'

You were happy when you woke up alone because that meant that Shigaraki never came back last night. Even though you hoped he'd stay gone there was one problem, the door was locked and you haven't eaten in over twenty-four hours.

Standing in front of the door you starred at it before reaching for the handle. 'Yesterday Dabi came here and I know he doesn't have a key..so maybe.' Your thoughts where spot on as you turned the knob and pulled feeling no resistance. 'It's unlocked!'

You stuck your head out first to make sure no one was around. The coast was clear and you let out the breath you were holding as you tiptoed out of the room, closing the door behind you.

It took longer than you thought but you finally found the kitchen. Stepping inside you gaped at all the people before you. There were at least ten slaves milling about doing different jobs around the huge kitchen. Besides the auction house you'd never seen this many slaves in one place, at least not in the past few years.

Eyeing a bowl of fruit on the counter you walked towards it, hoping to grab only a few items then head back to Shigaraki's room.

"The hell are you doing?..Better question what are you wearing? You must be new because we have a strict dress code. What's your name?"

You froze at the commanding voice and looked back over your shoulder at the man now standing to your left. He was tall with short brown hair, brown eyes, pale skin, and a lean frame. Upon further inspection you realized that he was wearing a white button down shirt with black slacks and shoes. Glancing behind him you noticed that the one other guy in the room was wearing the same outfit, while the women wore white button down shirts with black apron style skirts. 'Typical butler and maid attire.'

Since he had the tattoo on his neck same as you, you did your best to stand your ground. "My name is Mia. I just came to get something to-" "Look here Mia, I don't know who told you how things run around here but let me make it clear. My name is Hiro and I'm in charge, so you still need to treat me with some respect. You are to wear the uniform that is provided unless otherwise specified by me or the boss. You need to be on time, tardiness will not be excepted. You do whatever job you'r assigned with no complaints. And everyone helps with the cooking unless they are too busy still working on a job..We started prepping breakfast thirty minutes ago, since it's your first day-" "No, that's what I'm saying I don't belong-"

The sound could barely be heard over the sounds of pots and pans, food sizzling and other such noises. But you felt the familiar sting of a slap to your right cheek and you did your best to hold back the tears that stung your eyes.

"Don't interrupt me…There are extra uniforms in the office over there, go put one on and then report to me for your assignment."

'I swear some people can only show that they're in charge by literally slapping people around.' You thought keeping your head down as you walked towards the open door that lead to the office. Spotting the box with the same uniform as the others you grabbed your size and quickly changed into it before going back out to the kitchen.

'Let me try again..' "Hiro-san-" "You'll tend to the employee break room." He said it without even looking at you.

"Will you please listen to me-" "No I won't. Now I can either send you to the play room, which judging from the marks on your back you've already been there..or you can do as I say and go tend to the employee break room."

You sighed heavily, he wasn't going to back down. "..Where's the employee break room?"

Using the key Hiro-san gave you, you unlocked and opened the single metal door. Hitting the light switch you starred at the odd room layout. To the right was a table with three chairs, against the wall was a fridge situated next to an overhead cabinet and a sink that sat atop another set of cabinets. To the left was an old, stained, beat-up mattress that was laying on the floor. Next to it was an open doorway that lead to a bathroom, on closer inspection you noticed the bathroom also had a small shower.

'I know I've never had a real job before but this is the weirdest looking employee break room I could imagine.'

You opened the fridge and found nothing but bottled water and you quickly grabbed one, downing it as you continued to open the cabinets. When you saw a bottle of lube and a box of condoms you almost chocked on the water. 'I'm starting to think this isn't a normal break room.'

"What a lucky day it is for me." You turned quickly and saw a man, with no tattoo, already standing in the room with you. And because he was a quirk user you immediately put on the charm while looking down at his feet.

"D-Did you need something..master?"

"Hmm, yeah. Actually I do." He stepped closer and you clutched onto the bottle you still held feeling your anxiety rising.

"My apologies, I'll leave-" You went to side step around him but he moved in time with you still blocking your path. "Woah, not so fast-"

"Finally the break rooms' open." Came another voice as more people entered the break room. "Oh, what do we have here?"

The new group of guys got closer and you glanced up only to avert your eyes back down. They looked like actual monsters and your anxiety was building at what was coming next.

"She was just about to tell me her name..Go on.."

You could feel your heart pounding in your chest. This was bad, you'd been set up. "M-Mia." You said barely above a whisper, your voice betraying you as it gave away how scared you really were.

"You must be new," "I've never seen her before."

"Do you know what this room is for?"

'..With the way everyone is looking at me, the mattress and lube…Yeah I can put two and two together..' You nodded your head 'yes' as the men hovered closer around you.

Dabi was beyond confused. He had gone back to Shigaraki's room and when she wasn't there he thought she might've been locked away somewhere else but once he realized that Shigaraki had not been back to the base he grew even more concerned.

Even Skeptic was of no help since most of the cameras he'd installed were either outside or by the doors that lead in and out of the place. It did tell him one thing though. She was still in the building.

'How the hell does she just up and disappear?..Shigaraki hasn't even come back yet so..what am I missing?' He thought to himself as he walked to the conference room for another meeting.

'If they didn't keep me so damn busy with all these stupid meetings then I could search for her properly-'

"Dabi! There you are..Why the long face?" He recognized the voice instantly and rolled his eyes as the hero/wannabe sympathizer Hawks stepped right in his path.

"..Did you need something?" He questioned ignoring Hawks prying gaze as he side stepped him. Of course Hawks walked in time with Dabi so they could continue talking.

"Not really..Just wanted to know if there's anything else I can do..you know to get on Shigaraki's good side." He said wiggling his eyebrows.

Dabi was about to tell him off but thought about a bit longer before instead deciding to use this to his advantage. "..Actually…yeah there is something you can do." He paused before continuing. "I'm looking for someone..she belongs to Shigaraki and I need to find her before he gets back."

"I can help with that. Tell me what she looks like."

Every day you tried to leave this room, but every time before you could even try to get your clothes on someone would walk into the break room and you'd have no choice but to service them however they wanted.

If you had to guess that's probably the reason Hiro gave you this job; it keeps you busy. So busy that some nights you don't get any sleep because someone decides they want an all night session and even then others will still end up joining in at some point.

Night turns to day, day turns to night. 'How many days has it been now?..When was my last meal?'

"Oi! Stop daydreamin' you'r gettin' sloppy."

The voice brought your attention back to the present and you took in the fact that there was a dick in your mouth and another one already moving in and out of your pussy.

You moved your head back and forth, trying to move in time with the thrusts, hoping that would be enough to satisfy the guy in front of you.

"I know you can do better than that," he said gripping your hair in a tight fist, causing you to wince at the pain. He then shoved you down to the base of his cock repeatedly, forcing you to breath through your nose which wasn't easy given the rapid pace from both ends.

At the same time you felt an orgasm building and you wanted to cry, but your tear ducts were already dry from the past few days. Your shame was there, buried beneath the pain, guilt, and pleasure as your whole body twitched and you tried not to make a sound as the waves of your orgasm shook your body. Even if you didn't want it, you always seemed to enjoy it regardless.

Your eyes opened to a dark empty room. It had to be late but this seemed like as good a time as any. You stood and walked to the bathroom.

Once you had the uniform on you went right for the main door and opened it, stepping into the hallway. Deciding you weren't safe just yet you turned left in an attempt to find the kitchen.

Slowing down as you were finally far enough away, you sucked in a deep breath and let it out slowly. 'I need to get something to eat and find my way back to Shigaraki's room,' you thought as you saw a familiar door.

Stepping into the massive empty kitchen you knew that you needed to make this quick before you were caught. You went straight for the pantry and grabbed a few things.

"The fuck are you doing?"

You turned to see the one person you were trying to avoid. But honestly you were over his entitled attitude, "I'm getting some food and I'm going back to my room."

"You can't just come in here and take food without permission."

"..Fine. Hiro-san I'm hungry, is it okay if I-" "No."

"That's it, I've had it up to here with this guy.' "You'r such an asshole. What the hell did I ever do to you?"

"I would say this to anyone not just you. Besides, I'm in charge of this kitchen so any discrepancies in the inventory fall on me."

"I just..I don't understand why you, another slave, would be so mean."

"This is nothing compared to the worst treatment either of us has received. That I'm sure of..If you've survived this long then I could only assume you know your place but maybe you-"

"Fuck you!..Fuck you. Just because they gave you a title, did you forget..your a slave too!..How dare you say I don't know my place..My place..I know who I am, I know that my life is worthless…But you. You really want to go down as the guy with the reputation of being the best of the worst?..I mean I like being praised too but I wouldn't put others like us down just to get it."

"Get out..Put the food down and get the fuck out."

'What a jerk! You'd think someone who'd been through this would understand, but you give the guy a little bit of control and it goes straight to their head.'

You were half asleep on the mattress in the break room, naked and wet from the shower you took a few minutes ago. 'How many was it today?..twenty-five, thirty..does it even matter…All I wanted was some goddamn food!' you thought closing your eyes.

Suddenly the door squeaked open and you did your best to play like you where asleep. 'Please let them leave.' You thought as you listened to the footsteps enter into the room.

"Oh..that's a surprise. Why are you sleeping in the break room?"

'..Well since he noticed me I have no choice,' you thought begrudgingly as you opened your eyes slowly. Pushing yourself upright, you crawled across the floor towards a pair black ankle boots.

"Uhh…you okay?" The voice questioned as you sat on the back of your legs in front of him. Your hands went straight for his crotch and his hands grabbed your wrists quickly causing you to still.

"What are you doing?"

'What type of question is that?' "Helping you get undressed, master."

He knelt down to be eye level with you and you continued to avoid his gaze. "I'm Hawks. What's your name?"

'This guy is different from the others…not sure if that's a good or bad thing though.' "..Mia."

"Well Mia, you don't have to do that for me. I was just being nosey and looking behind every door that wasn't locked, I'm still kinda new here."

'..I was wrong, he's just a weirdo.'

"You look tired. I'll leave so you can get some sleep..Goodnight."

He was gone almost as quickly as he came and you sighed heavily before crawling back onto the mattress. '..At least he didn't touch me.' Was your last thought before your eyes closed and you finally fell asleep.

Dabi was leaving the conference room when he spotted Hawks leaning against the opposite wall. Falling into step with the flame user Hawks waits until they are in the elevators before he opens his mouth to speak.

"I found her. She's in the break room on the second basement level."

Dabi reaches for the buttons and pauses before pressing the one that would take him where he wanted to go. "The hell is she doing there?"

"Uh..she was sleeping when I got there."

Blue eyes met gold and Dabi knew there was something the winged hero wasn't telling him. But before he could question him further the elevator chimed and the doors opened.

Dabi stepped into the hallway first looking from left to right deciding which way to go.

"To the right," said Hawks already heading in that direction.

The long hallways of grey cement with only artificial light made the place seem like a prison. And with how long it was taking to find this one room, Dabi was growing more and more impatient.

When he finally heard something that sounded like a female voice his feet picked up the pace and he left Hawks behind as he spotted a door that was clearly labeled 'Employee Break Room.'

His hand on the door he pushes it open and steps into the room eyes searching for her. What he sees doesn't shock or disgust him, it angers him. The rage bubbles to the surface as blue flames appear all over his body.

Mia's face is being pushed into the floor while a guy fucks her relentlessly despite Dabi's sudden arrival. There are two other guys in the room who looked ready to join in. Thankfully at the sight of him and his quirk they freeze in place.

"Hey, don't just stand there-" "Don't you know who that is?" "Don't be such a pussy and get him out of here!"

Mia tries to pull away but the guy grabs her hair and continues to hold her in place while still thrusting inside her.

Dabi lost it and threw his flames at the other two and they could do nothing as they burned alive before their comrade. "I'm only going to say this one time, let her go."

"Fuck man, here." He pushes her away, "She's not even worth all t-" before he could finish his words and Mia was a safe distance away, he sent another ball of flames at the man and watched as he too burned away to nothing.

Dabi took off his trench coat and wrapped it around the shorter woman. "..You alright?"

She shook her head 'no' and tears came pouring down her face. She didn't make a sound, she just let the tears stain her face as she starred at the floor unable to meet his eyes.

"Well that was quite the show Dabi." Came the unwanted voice of Hawks as he made his presence known.

"Why are you still here?" He questioned not happy that the hero had seen everything.

"What do you mean? I had to stay in case you needed backup. What I wasn't expecting was such a heroic rescue from you."

"I told you she belongs to Shigaraki, no one else is allowed to touch her."

"..Dabi-san?" Came Mia's low timid voice. "Thank you..And thank you Hawks-san for telling Dabi-san where I was.."

"Just call me Hawks baby bird."

"Let's get out of here."

Instead of taking you back to Shigaraki's, Dabi brought you to his room. Which was the same exact layout only backwards.

You were currently sitting in the bathtub with the water covering most of your body and your knees hugged to your chest. 'I can't believe he has seen me like that twice now…Last time he was angry with me, which means I should expect the same thing this time around too.'

Subconsciously you hugged your knees closer to you.

The door slammed open interrupting your thoughts as Dabi walked into the bathroom. "I need to know what happened." He said sitting on the rim of the tub.

You really didn't feel like talking at the moment, but the look on his face told you that he wasn't going to leave without an answer. So you told him everything. From the moment you left Shigarakis room up until the moment he opened the door to the break room. He was silent during your explanation, face showing no signs of what he was really thinking and that caused your anxiety to increase.

"..Are you mad?" You questioned.

"..Why would I be mad?"

"..You were the last time this happened."

"..I'm angry at the situation, not you."

'Okay..I can understand that. But..' "Can you really be mad at the situation you brought upon yourself."

"What are you talking about?"

'..Here goes nothing,' you thought before continuing. "..You gave me to Shigaraki..He didn't even want me, but you knew who I was and insisted anyway…If I'm so important to you, why did you do that?"

"Your asking that now?"

"I just..had some time to think recently and-" "And, what?"

You finally looked up and directly into his bright blue eyes . "..Your story doesn't make sense."
